    Malware spyware

    Thanks for the response! What made me paranoid was the link looked kinda strange for a youtube link. It started with "https://youtu.be/..." Maybe it was a mistake, but I'm just trying to be careful I didnt install anything that monitors my activity like phone calls, texts, location etc...

    Malware spyware

    I own a Note 10 + and was wondering, what's the best way to check for malware or spyware? Someone I know texted me a link for a Netflix series preview and now I'm paranoid for personal reasons it may have contained some sort of spyware. This text was sent awhile ago and I cant remember if I...

    Screen Fast Blinks

    Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this. If I'm on a call and start navigating to the home screen, apps, settings, etc. , when I try to go back into the call screen (pressing the phone app icon at bottom), I get this fast flicker and remains in the home screen. The only...

    And my case addiction has started.... lol

    I had purchased the Otterbox Defender case before I got the phone since I tend to drop my phone all the time and have always used Otterbox in the past. After reading about the Samsung S View case online, I decided to get that as well. I'm guessing it doesn't have the same drop protection as...

    Virus?

    Thanks for the the replies guys. I've never used it in the past and don't remember this ever happening on my prev Samsung phones. I didn't know it sets itself up as a quick access on the bottom of the screen just like the contacts bar on the right side. First thing I thought of were those...

    Virus?

    No I never set it up. But is that normal for it to happen on its own? I received that email saying I registered my device but I did no such thing this morning. That tip of the window at the bottom of the screen looked like that quick access bar that's on the side of the phone. Does Samsung Pay...

    Virus?

    Hey guys, When I unlocked my phone just a little while ago, I noticed the tip of a window at the bottom of the screen. It was Samsung Pay welcoming me and asking me to enter my info. Then I noticed an email titled "Samsung Pay Device Registration" with the "Get Started" info same as what I saw...

    Note 10 Plus App Restore

    When I launched Smart Switch, I get to the page where it's asking what you want to transfer (contacts, pictures, messages, apps, etc.) But it looks like it will copy ALL apps from backup. There's just a check box next to the APPS icon and didn't see a way to pick and choose which apps you want...

    Note 10 Plus App Restore

    Hey guys, So I traded in my Note 8 for a Note 10+ in Aura Black and I love it! I backed everything up to an SD card before handing it in but I kinda wanted to start fresh with my new phone. I was concerned that if I did a full restore from my Note 8, something might hinder the performance like...
