The trusted place feature would not turn off and I had to delete my home address to make it stop. Weird that it never did that for all these years I have used Android. And yes I found...

    How do I wake up my screen while on a call S21+?

    I'm on a call, the screen times out and goes dark. How do you wake up the screen? There is no virtual home button, my side key is programmed to end call so cannot use that, double tap does not work, the volume up/down keys don't wake it up. So other than reprogramming my side key to NOT end...

    S10+ microphone issues

    Truth. Out of frustration right before I was going to mail the phone back, I took a stereo (1/8") mini plug and jammed it in the input knowing it sits right next to the mic. Low and behold, the problem disappeared and now a month later (3/7) everything works fine. Cannot say it will work for...

    changing video to landscape

    I started several video (accidentally) in portrait mode, then held my phone in landscape mode thinking thats how it was recording. When I downloaded them and viewed them on my laptop, I have to turn the damn laptop to see them in landscape. Is there an editor app or something in my S9+ that can...

    DTMF Tones Not Working Correctly - Galaxy S9 Plus - Verizon

    My S9+ according to ATT help has no option to change the DTMF tone from short to long. So I cannot access ANY service which requires a touch tone keypad. Needless to say I was livid. ATT removed the menu item but by default, the tone is set to long. However my phone is set to short by default...
