    Hello. Can anyone welcome me to Android Central (

    Welcome to Android Central! The S9+is a great phone, and I don't blame you for feeling a bit nervous when handing the phone off to other people to take a look. Last thing I'd want to have happen is the phone fall in front of my when in someone else's hands - how awkward that would be.

    When i plug earphone then Audio not Record .?

    The problem seems to be with the app not recognizing that the headphones are plugged in and switching to the headphone microphone or keeping the phone microphone while connected - I would suggest contacting the app developer.

    Best Gimbal

    Are you using the N8 with a case while using the Osmo Mobile? I found this on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyNote8/comments/71zimf/zhiyun_smooth_q_gimbal_stabilizer_test_with_note_8/ It's the Smooth Q. I don't see anything bad in the comments in terms of the Note 8 being too bulky...

    Auto changing wallpaper on low battery...

    I'm assuming you want a wallpaper that is less taxing on the screen, correct? I don't know of a way to automate that. Possibly Tasker or IFTTT? Have you given either of those a try?

    Security Restrictions

    Short of removing the restriction, I don't believe there is an alternative/workaround to replace wallpaper while the security setting is enabled.

    App to help automatically carry out sequence of events

    No, unfortunately I don't think there is an app that can achieve this.

    Why wont my contacts load up from my Samsung Galaxsy 8 to my Uconnect?

    Hello! Have you tried deleting/unpairing the device then repairing once again to see if that helps? Let us know if you have done that. Also, I believe you are referring to a vehicle Uconnect, correct? Please specify the vehicle make/model if possible too, please.

    Discount for Note 7 owners

    I have not heard of Note 7 owners being given a discount to purchase the next Note. As far as I know, the Note line was uncertain after the issues with the 7, and giving owners a discount guarantee on a future, unannounced device seems unlikely - though, I could be wrong.

    Why cant i connect on line

    Are you talking about WiFi or Mobile internet? If it's mobile, check that you have the SIM card connected and are connected to the network. If it's WiFi, check the WiFi account settings such as password. Resetting the network (router) may help with connectivity issues.

    Can I transfer Verizon account to my own minutes?

    If you were on a post-paid Verizon account you can't just load minutes onto the device. It sounds like you'll be moving to a pre-paid account, which Verizon does offer. However, you'll need to check with them that the phone you plan on purchasing will work on their pre-paid network. Otherwise...
