    Favorite notes app?

    Joplin notes. Open source, has a similar feel as Evernote (and can convert from Evernote). Works on Android, IOS, Windows, Linux.

    S23+ notification sound keeps sounding (won't stop) 🙄

    To turn off repeating notifications, go to settings, notifications, advanced settings. turn off "Repeat notification alerts". There's a menu behind that toggle, where you can set which apps, interval, and vibration.

    S23+ notification sound keeps sounding (won't stop) 🙄

    Could you have turned on the repeating notification? The one that nags you?

    Notifications on the lock screen

    I've been moving from a Note 10 (Android 12) to an S23+ (Android 13). I found with the Note that I was best off disabling the Podcast Addict notification on the lock screen because l carry the phone in my shirt pocket and a notification (like a text) wakes up the screen and makes the buttons on...

    Migrating from S9+ to S23+ Help

    I think there would be a lot of duplication of effort. I just moved from a Note 10 to an S23+ with Smart switch and it was pretty straightforward. I actually did a partial transfer first, moving music and settings then transferred everything. This got a lot of my notification sounds right. Still...

    Tempered glass and cases

    I just picked up an S23+. I picked up a Speck Presidio Grip case because I like the one I had for my Note 10. I'm wondering if it'll work with something like the Spigen Glas screen protector? Obviously the best choice is a Spigen case and tempered glass, but can I mix?

    Update

    Just got an update on my unlocked US Note 10. A little over 700Mb in size. Typical security and operational improvements. Disappointed that it is only the February security update, but at least it's in 2023.

    Holy idle Batman.

    I suspect that overall power drain was very light, so idle was a large proportion of that. Use the phone more for a while so you can see if the percentage falls. I mean, idle draw is going to be a certain amount of mah for a certain length of time. If you do nothing else it might be a large...

    I think there are little Bluetooth remotes available. Sent from my SM-T870 using Tapatalk

    Wet S22+

    I'm assuming that I shouldn't turn it USB up and turn on the tap? Should I fill a pan with water and fully submerge it or what? I've not been able to find much on how to rinse it off. Then how do I dry it, and how long should it be off? Sent from my SM-T870 using Tapatalk

    Wet S22+

    My wife took a fall in the surf at the beach on Monday. Apparently she got water in her S22+. She's been charging it wirelessly with no problem. Last night we charged it on USB, and about 4 hours later it woke us up complaining about water or foreign matter in the port. Should I try blowing it...

    Messages app starts with big header taking half the screen

    I think you are confusing Samsung Messages, an app written entirely by Samsung, and the collaboration version of Google and Samsung that is mostly Google Messages but has the half page startup problem. Sent from my SM-T870 using Tapatalk

    Android 13

    I've had the same problem. Unlock with fingerprint and can't get touch screen to respond. Lock and unlock with pin and it works fine. Happens infrequently. I wondered if it was Nova Launcher hanging up. Sent from my SM-T870 using Tapatalk
