So, I found firmware files on samfw.com. I downloaded verizon's image for my phone and it worked using odin. I'm all loaded up. I then shut off the phone and started it back up into download mode. I noticed before in download mode, it said the provider of at&t in the upper part of that...

more i'm reading, i bet it's because the firmware I downloaded is lower than the firmware that the phone is currently running...

I bought my S22 from AT&T and had AT&T service. For a while, I had an AT&T physical sim and a Verizon esim. I noticed everytime I made AT&T my primary sim and restarted, the AT&T splash screen would display and all of the AT&T bloatware would install and be uninstallable. As soon as I switch...

One thing I just tried. We use Gmail for my work. I have a work profile for my work gmail on my phone. I can send emails from my work's gmail. The work gmail and personal gmail should be using the same exact binaries... So, it's somehow specific to my personal gmail account..

I found a website that mentioned maybe 2FA is causing the issue. I just turned off 2FA and still having the problem. Cleared gmail storage and still not working.

did you also update to android 12? i'm wondering if something maybe is a miss with my gmail account on the web. But, not sure why any setting on the web would cause it to break when upgrading to android 12.

So, I didn't see a way to uninstall Gmail. But, when I went to app settings, it had an uninstall button. I tapped it and I think it uninstalled an update. It didn't uninstall gmail. (Figure you can't.) Still can't send emails with the update uninstalled.

I cleared the data and forced stopped gmail and still broke. One thing I see is under accounts in settings and gmail, it shows a whole bunch of sliders to sync gmail, calendar, etc. Gmail is selected on, but it shows it hasn't synced in over a day. I tried toggling it off and on and still not...

Also I have updated all my apps after the OS update.

I am using the native Gmail app and I am not using a VPN. My phone is running stock everything.

Ok, so because of the wfh revolution, I work from home now and I'm using Bluetooth headsets all day on calls. I had my phone paired with the car we share so I could listen to music. But the problem I have is if my phone is paired with the car and I'm on a call using a Bluetooth headset in the...

I have an LG v30. Every 30 seconds or so music over Bluetooth pauses for a split second and then blips making a weird noise then plays for 30 seconds or so and does it again. Multiple Bluetooth devices do it. I am listening to music over wired headphones and proving it works fine. So only...

I just had a Kenwood dnx574s installed in my car. I don't know why android auto is so funniky. When I plug my phone into my car, first my LG v30 makes this really weird sound from low to high. Then I get a window pop-up asking to allow or deny the connection. Usually if I dont touch it...

Yeah sprint would have. But they were almost the same price monthly. With cricket, my monthly bill is less than half of Verizon. I created a spreadsheet and calculated how much it will cost to finish out the contract for two lines vs cancelling both lines, pay $700 cancel fees then only $70...

Again.... I didn't make phone payments. That's the Verizon edge program. I wasnt on the edge program. I had a 2 year contract. I ended up paying for the phone in the $700 contract cancellation fee
