    Is there an APP to allow for easy toggling between 2 SIM cards?

    2 years later and still an issue - I think in the US this is by design because carriers do not want people to do what I attempt to do. I have cheap unlimited plan as primary (Visible) and backup data only sim (T-Mobile). With iPhone , it will automatically use data of 2nd sim if 1st sim is...

    Lack of deals from Samsung on Note 20

    $550 for s20+ and then I get a popup for $600 and 5% additional coupon , but once I click accept neither apply. If I was serious, I would use chat , such BS the way their offers always fail to apply

    Lack of deals from Samsung on Note 20

    The TMobile Note 20 is OOS at both Samsung and TMobile The unlocked version (non-TMobile) does not get dual sim - thanks to the powers of Verizon and ATT blocking it I also do not consider $1199(without TradeIn) and no accessory promos to be a sale for the Ultra. Trade in of $550 for S20+ for...

    Lack of deals from Samsung on Note 20

    Thanks but I want an unlocked T-Mobile version to use dual sim. Only real reason I want the Note. I'd keep my S20+ if it had dual sim. I might buy unlocked from Samsung and flash T-Mobile rom. Regular unlocked does not even have dual sim - only TMO

    Dual sim question

    Since Note 20 now has dual sim functionality (at least for T-Mobile) with one of the sims being eSim, there are rumors about it being released for the s20/s21 lines. Anyone here about this or think this could happen? Strictly talking about North America snapdragon variants.

    Lack of deals from Samsung on Note 20

    Usually from time to time I see promotions from Samsung on phones, but not many on Note20. Did I miss any good promos or have there just been done?

    Backup questions and the normal problems

    Yeah , thanks. I already have the s20 up and running. I used both Google Backup and Smart Switch. I have to send my s10 to Samsung for trade in so before hand I wanted to back up more so than what Smart Switch backs up on a pc and it looked like just copy and paste of internal storage was...

    Backup questions and the normal problems

    I am moving on to the s20 and getting rid of my s10+ . Not-rooted. I did Smart Switch but it misses a lot of stuff. For example , I use a 3rd party app called Keep My Notes - and I have to do the export of my notes manually. Kind of annoying Smart Switch does not take care of stuff like...

    Encrypt does not encrypt SD card?

    yes, from the phone biometrics and security sub menu I figured out the issue. It does encrypt , it just leaves the folder structure intact with file names easily viewable. Kind of stupid to encryot a card but still be able to view file names. I wish bitlocker drives were accessible in android

    Encrypt does not encrypt SD card?

    I encryoted my external microSD card through my s8+ , removed the card and inserted it into my laptop and everything was 100% readible
