Sorry everyone - thought I'd answered these on my phone earlier but can't find now - it doesn't really matter but it annoys me when things don't work as they should - I'm just wanting it to recognise from home again because I get fed up having to open it every time. Thanks everyone for replies

Hi - only got Note 9 a few days ago and managed to get smart lock to work once, but it won't work now - does anyone else have a problem pls?

Have just spoken to Samsung again and a different lady who knew what she was talking about said since the latest update this is no longer an option and I will have to look for third party app. Very confusing to have the section in settings that you can't even use now and not impressed!

Hi - got no answers yesterday so presume nobody ever uses text to speech, but does anyone know why the 'install voice data' won't let me open when it has installed please? This would be useful for my dyslexic son and Samsung rep doesn't even know how to do it, but if there is a Text to speech...

Hi - wonder if anyone can help pls. Had Note 9 for 2 days so a bit of a novice - friend was doing text to speech on her iphone yesterday and I went messing about in settings to find out how to do on my phone. When I get to 'install voice data' - with Samsung engine it takes me to a page to...

Hi thank you - sorry had forgotten to sign in so this is me :) So presumably whatever messages you had in the meantime, this one stays at the top then? Thought it would be more exciting, but thanks for your help

Sorry this is on a samsung s6 - can't change title now .......... Have a few contacts on home screen - appears I have deleted my mum's by accident and sure it used to be under 'contacts' 'more' but now no option to add her back on (or anyone else) - where else would you look on phone to add...

Thank you - think you're right ........ will give it a go and let you know - thanks again :)

Forgot to mention - when I switch phone off and back on again to make camera work, a message pops up on screen every time to say 'failed to download multimedia attachment' - could that have something to do with camera not working but don't know what it refers to or how to delete the supposed...

Sorry but I hadn't seen your reply - thought I'd get emails for answers but didn't and couldn't find how to access my question until now - can tell how good I am with phone too :-\ The OK Google says I can access from on screen or when charging - no choice for lock screen. The S Voice used to...

Hi - thank you so much for replying. The contacts are phone contacts ... I should be able to say 'hi galaxy' when phone is locked and ask it to text/call someone in my contacts list but it keeps saying contact not found. Have worked out I can do this in google voice, but not from lock screen -...

Please help - since a new update my s voice wouldn't work in turned off mode - last night it said it had been updated, so now it works from turned off but can't find any of my contacts. I am reluctant to wipe phone and start again as best friend passed away suddenly a few weeks ago and I don't...
