Re: What does it really mean that the S20 will get no more updates? The phone isn't even a year old. No way that's right. I swear I saw something about three years. If Samsung killed updates to a flagship after a year, they'd kill their business pretty quickly

Yes. I have chat features on. I have a different version though

I use Google Messages. In the settings, there's a Bubbles option and you can either turn it on for all contacts or just for ones you choose. I don't know what other apps are supported.

Works for me. Oddly, my brother has the S20+ as well and it isn't working for him. No idea why it works for some but not others

The app is not great, so I ended up using Google Voice. It's much easier and the voice transcripts are way better

I had the Pixel 2XL and got security patches and OS updates like clockwork. I bought a Samsung S20 Plus when it came out and, to my surprise, updates came pretty quickly for March and April.... Then nothing. Haven't seen May or June. I've heard there is an update for the unlocked models, but I'm...

It's in the Developer Options. I had the opposite problem the other day. Connected to a speaker and could barely hear anything. Went into developer options, and actually had to turn it on then back off to make it work right.

At first, I also was annoyed I couldn't use my own sounds, but I remembered it also happened when I bought my old Pixel. I connected my my s20+ to my laptop and opened the storage folders. My sounds went to the S20's internal storage, I believe, so I moved them. I don't remember the folder...

I used Textra for a long time and had no issues. Loved the customization, but now I'm using Messages (love RCS). The inability to customize colors is not the end of the world, swiping to delete would be great, but again, not huge. To me, the best feature Google could add is the option to display...

Safe mode was not as successful as I thought at first. Once I turn off Bluetooth and turn it back on, the phone audio setting is off again, and that's whether I actually connect to anything or not. Basically, I have to restart the phone every single time to get any of my headsets to work for a...

Actually, it didn't work. I went into safe mode and had no issues repeating phone calls through BT, however, after going back to normal mode, the issue came back. This tells me it probably is NOT the Google app, as that is a stock app. Something in a third-party app is more likely the culprit...

Sweet!
