    Question anyone heard of Ryoko portable wireless wi-fi hotspot?

    HI there! Has anyone ever heard of this Ryoko thing before and/or how well it works (or doesn't)? https://getryoko.com/ I don't know whether it's for real, some kind of gimmick or ??? It almost seems like one of those "if it sounds too good to be true" kinda things but on the other hand...

    Physical SIM and eSIM in the same phone?

    So, if I'm understanding this correctly, I have a Cricket physical sim. Since unlimited data seems to never be unlimited (they slow you down when you hit the limit) I was thinking of getting an esim from another carrier (so I don't have to buy a physical hotspot) in order to use it for more data...

    Question Hot Spot feedback please

    I believe you are correct on the extra Sim idea. Not crazy about adding another line due to they always charge for another line and even then you are still limited to X data. I just remembered my new Samsung S25 Ultra has an eSim and a physical sim. I have no experience with an eSim. Would I...

    Question Hot Spot feedback please

    HI there, We have no cable/internet where we live that we can afford anyway. So, our internet runs off my phone's hotspot. I'm trying to determine if adding a stand-alone hotspot would be a good idea for us or not. We use Cricket as our cell provider. Years ago I was told a cell phone hotspot...

    bit of a problem with my home screen placement

    How do I know if I'm using that Samsung's OneUI? I haven't had a Sammie in years so way behind the times. NEVERMIND! I Googled and found it. Thank you.

    bit of a problem with my home screen placement

    Hi there, Tweaking my new S25U and I'm having issues with the position of the home screen. I like it when I have the home screen as the middle screen with one additional screen to the left and one to the right so I can slide back and forth. Currently my home screen is the farthest left screen...

    Help with new S25 Ultra restore from Google backup please?

    You were right, Laura. I'm still tweaking but it was a lot easier to transfer phones this way. THANK YOU! And I LOVE my S25 Ultra! Samsung phones have always felt like home to me. It was driving me crazy using a Motorola. ;)

    Help with new S25 Ultra restore from Google backup please?

    HI there Trying to switch over to my new S25. First time trying Google backup and having issues. I did a backup on my Moto to Google Backup. When I went over to my S25 after the restore was supposedly finished, there were no changes in the appearance of my pre-customized screen meaning I'd have...

    Samsung s25 Ultra I think they sent me the wrong phone

    I kinda figured that, but it could happen considering how many phones they ship.

    If you thought the colors for the S25 series were bad..

    I agree, these are definitely not "colors" and there's not much differentiating them one from the other. I bought the white silver because I wanted a white phone. This looked closest to white on their website. I even ordered a clear case so I'd have a white phone even with a case. The one they...
