Yes, but then presumably those button become painfully difficult to press when required. e.g. When I need to change volume up/down. Or zooming the camera in/out. Hmm.... One of my pet peeves is screens that turn off too quickly - esp when I am trying to shoot video. Thought: If only I could...

Hello I keep taking screenshots accidentally. I THINK it's from Volume down being press at the same time as the Power button. This is all too easily done with fat fingers because they right next door to each other. Either way how can I turn this off? J

UPDATE: Wait, maybe I ended up buying a phone with a very large internal memory instead. (1TB) G*d I hate it when phone manufacturers stop us from adding our own memory cards & changing our own batteries come to that. I loath the fact that Samsung is following Apple's lead in this matter...

Hello Assuming that I have some external memory installed, how can I move the location where my Samsung Camera app stores all my new photographs & videos? Thanks J PS Much though I hate using Microsoft, out of desperation, I am trying to move my photos & videos into OneDrive.

UPDATE: I have now asked this question in the section relevant to my phone. How do I now delete this copy of my question?

Hello How do I find out how much external memory I have? I think I installed a MicroSD card but it was a while ago! With thanks J PS I am using Android version 12 and One UE version 4.1

PS Maybe my adapter is faulty? My problem is that I can't work out what the heck to replace the connector with. Most USB-C to 3.5mm adapters don't seem to mention TRRS (i.e. having the 3 rings of plastic rather than the 2 rings on the male connector). I am also confused as to whether I need a...

Hello New problems - the microphone keeps cutting out while I am recording & audio-playback then fails if microphone is plugged in! BACKGROUND I am using: A) a good quality (Rode "SmartLav+") external wired microphone [ https://rode.com/en/microphones/mobile/smartlav-plus ] B) A "2-in-1...

A 2-minute timeout may suffice for taking selfies, but as any professional can tell you, when you are trying to shoot some video in any remotely serious way, a 2-minute timeout that resets your zoom is TOTALLY insufficient. [GRRRR!] Samsung has obviously failed to do user trials with any...

No, it is kicking me out in between recording sessions. It is deeply irritating of "Big Brother" Samsung to have hard-coded this setting, if that's what they've really done. Either way, I can't find any way to go back to my previous zoom setting that I set within Pro Video mode.

Hello How can I stop my (Samsung) Camera app from closing every c. 2 minutes? Background I am trying to take videos using a tripod, and I have discovered the "Video Pro" mode, which gives a lot of extra features (including being able to see which microphone(s) are connected and changing it if...

I have the same problem on my S22 Ultra. IMO, it's utterly ridiculous that Samsung kick you out of your own camera after such a short length of time, WITHOUT there being any official way to change the setting. The worst of it is that every time it kicks me out of the Camera app, it 'forgets'...

Ideally I would prefer to use a Microsoft and/or Samsung application as I don't really trust random 3rd party apps for this sort of thing. I also object to my data being used by Big Data companies. If AirDroid has been around for a while maybe we can trust it(??) However if it is free, then...

Hello Is it possible to copy data files to/from my Galaxy S22 Ultra and Windows 10 using WiFi? If so, how do I do so? e.g. Do I need a special app? My problem is that I do not have a USB Type-C connector on my Window 10 computer. With thanks J

PS Goodlock seems to have terrible reviews. 2.8 stars on my phone. One complaint is that it adds a separate lock screen. Obviously you can completely deactivate the Android one, but that will compromise the phone's basic security. Another is that Goodlock does nasty stuff that can't be...
