    Alcatel 1B 2020 32GB - Unable to increase font size after Android update.

    I received an update to Android 10 Go edition version 10 - 06 and it appears this was again just a security update as the issue persists. Does anyone have any solutions to enable me to increase the font size above 130%?

    Alcatel 1B 2020 32GB - Unable to increase font size after Android update.

    Yes. After update from Android Go Edition 10 - 02 to 10 - 03. It is a known bug for that patch and was supposedly fixed in the following update. However my phone is now on Android Go 10 - 04 and still cannot increase the size above 130%.

    Alcatel 1B 2020 32GB - Unable to increase font size after Android update.

    Font size is set to 'Largest' in System settings. I was using Big Font app from the Google Playstore. I have tried most of the other big font apps also, none will work after the 10 - 03 update and recently 10 - 04 update. Tried posting screen shot but not working in Opera mini.

    Unable to remove Voicemail icon in notification bar.

    Problem Solved: After trying methods with the phone such as removing battery and sim card and booting into recovery mode and clearing the phone cache partition etc. I deduced that it must be a glitch at Virgin mobile's end. Called them up and the Virgin technical person took 40 minutes to run...
