sorry, i don't know where to post this question...i switched from a galaxy S21 to S24. and now if someone calls me on whatsapp or signal, the call is buried. it doesn't show on my homescreen. i have to find it. is there a notification setting somewhere i need to change? thank you!!

thank you. i just did this...tried a couple of different settings (short, medium), and it still barely registers when i choose vibrate for my profile. i barely feel it...not because of the intensity but because it's so brief. it vibrates for a fraction of a fraction of a second.

i switched from an S21 to S24. on my S21, when i switched from sound or mute to vibrate i felt a long vibration. on the new S24 it's like a tiny grunt like the briefest of vibrates....otherwise the vibration works fine. is there a setting somewhere for that? thank you!

i wonder if there were two "phone" apps on my previous galaxy S21 and i chose to hide one then. my settings transfered when i installed nova on the new S24.

found the culprit. under nova settings was an option to hide specific apps from the app drawer and phone was selected. thank you!

i just switched from an unlocked US S21 to S24. and when i clicked on the phone icon on my home screen it asked me to switch default phone apps. i realized then that there was a newer phone app on the newer phone. i am happy to use the newer app. but there is no icon for it in my app drawer...

it was still acting up so i emptied the cache and data, uninstalled apple music, restarted the phone, and reinstalled apple music. it's still a bit glitchy. but the battery drain seems to have stopped. i noticed in google play that they haven't updated the app in a few months. and sidenote...

ok i'm gonna give it a day or two to see if the update helps. if not, i'll destroy the cache and data and reinstall. thank you!!

oh really? i assumed everything cleared when i uninstalled. so should i clear cache, clear data, uninstall, restart, reinstall? thank you!

thank you! yes it says "optimized". i did install an update yesterday from samsung. and at the moment it is not warm or draining the battery.

hi all. in the last two weeks or so i've noticed my phone getting quite warm and battery not lasting long. i looked under settings and apple music seems to be the problem using 20-30% of the battery. i have done many restarts. i have uninstalled and reinstalled apple music (a huge pain having to...

azubudai hills tower from tokyo tower yesterday. it will be the tallest building in japan when completed this year.

i don't think i've ever paired my samsung to her iphone. or any of her apple devices. ever. i'm gonna try unpairing and rescanning now. thank you. oh and that was from a BMW i rented in portugal. it was a diesel wagon and so much fun to drive (in the azores!). i deleted it from the list...

haha noooo i was getting paranoid that she put airtags on me... it all started yesterday when i i tried connecting my S21 to my hotel TV. when the phone scanned for devices my exes' name popped up with the number 3 in parentheses. at first i was like that's weird. and then i was like 'is she...
