    Magsafe with Z Fold 6

    It has been a while since I did something foolish, so I am about due. I might just as well do it here. I have zero experience with Magsafe cases and chargers. I am hoping that the group can succinctly educate me on them. I recently upgraded to the Z Fold 6 and am still adapting and learning...

    Fold 6 Cases!

    I have used Otterbox cases on all my previous phones, and while pricey, they have done an excellent job protecting the phone. I don't see anything about the Otterbox Fold6 case. Has anyone tried it? Reading this thread, I sense that the Fold6 (mine is scheduled to arrive in a few days) is...

    Trade In Thread

    I've done a few trade-ins over the years and, fortunately, never had an issue. Generally, I re-use the box from the new device, leave whatever case I have on the phone for added protection, and stuff the box with material from my paper shredder. As to upgrade credits, I never get much on the...

    BT on s23u different from older phones?

    Something is definitely different with the BT on my 23u. I drive a 2008 Chrysler Sebring. The BT to phone connection in the vehicle is "Uconnect" (Chrysler's marketing name). It has never supported audio streaming from any of my previous Note devices (5, 8, 9, 205G), BUT! After migrating to the...

    Buds Live are super nice!

    I used the promo credit to get the Ear Buds Live version when I ordered the Note 20. I already had the previous Ear Buds version. I've been switching back and forth between the two for a couple of months now. I will listen using one until the battery charge is down then swap over to the other...

    Downloaded Notification files not visible

    Yes, Javier. I even updated the OP with the resolution and crediting B. Diddy so that future readers would get the entire thing - issue and resolution - in the first message rather than slogging through a whole thread. Call it a habit from decades ago that I never managed to kick.

    Downloaded Notification files not visible

    Oh, yes, Javier P. Long time IT career person. I did all the things I would berate others for not trying first. I think B. Diddy's note about wav vs mp3 make have some merit. I am off to work that angle now.

    Downloaded Notification files not visible

    You are correct, B. Diddy. I had forgotten they are wav rather than mp3. Odd, though. These were the exact files I used on my Note 8 without issue. Clearly this could be a change between the phones. I will have to see about converting them and trying again. Thanks!

    Downloaded Notification files not visible

    Update - Issue Resolved: B. Diddy nailed it right off. The issue is/was that the Note 9 does *not* recognize wav files for use as Notification sounds. mp3 files work as expected. I had missed the file extensions (damned icons lulled me into a sense of complacency). Converted format from wav to...
