Makes sense. The screen size between the choices is not a deal breaker. I would be OK with any of them. The camera is very important to me. The camera specs seem quite less capable on the Plus but maybe the differences don't add up to as much in real use as on paper. Usually at end of day I...

Thanks. I will look closer but the camera and battery on both of these are the two main things I think are not as good as the Ultra. I may just stay with the Ultra and ignore the S-Pen as I have been doing with my S-22U.

I am considering updating from my Verizon S-22 Ultra which I switched to from a Pixel when the S-22 came out. I have liked the S-22 but wonder about this. I found I never use the S-Pen. Wanting to stay with Samsung, is there another similarly capable Samsung phone I should consider that does...

Interesting, I thought it was only on Verizon. Must be a Samsung screwup, not Verizon?

This is an issue for tons of folks. Update fails after sometimes hours of downloading. However, this is the first I have heard of Verizon's/Samsung's failure on this update causing issues like calls not working. Mine failed several times before I gave up but the phone still works fine. Only...

Thanks. I tried that and it says the app is set to update, but then it does not seem to do it? Unless there is a big delay from when you do this until it finally decides to update. I also looked in the Playstore App itself on my phone and there are no new updates available. Kind of confusing.

Yeah mine is broken too on S22 Ultra. Gets stuck on downloading at 1 to 3% until an error. Then restarts the attempt again. Even clearing the phone cache and rebooting the phone does not work. As soon as the phone is restarted, the broken security update restarts and again fails...

My S22 Ultra has been doing this for a while even though I keep it updated. Searching online mainly gives me suggestions as to updating sleeping Play Store app, not how to fix the Play Store app itself from going into deep sleep. Android keeps putting the Play Store App in deep sleep saying it...

Thanks!!:)

The most recent update UI on my Ultra put a display slider bar across the top of the pull-down menu. I am always accidently touching and changing it when using the pull down and would like to get it off the drop-down screen. I cannot find where to do that. Thanks for direction!

So, on another note can anyone recommend a used phone to look for to use as I described. Screen size up to about 5.5" is OK. Thanks.

It was reset a few weeks ago when I brought it back. But I just did another factory reset now and behavior is exactly the same as described in posts 7 and 9. Guess I am just SOL with this one.

This is one of my old phones. I currently have an S22 Ultra and before that a Pixel which I no longer have. I want to use this phone only to carry on my backpack strap to use for the previously mentioned Merlin app. That is its only purpose, so I was hoping to avoid having to buy a newer...

That's correct. The videos seemed to be recording for 30 seconds or so and when I stopped, it said it saved them. I see them in the Gallery but they show as being 0.00 seconds long and if I try to play them, it says "the video could not be played". Almost the exact same thing happens using...

I just recorded a couple of videos. All seems OK as it is recording and the file says it is saved after I stop. However, when I go to the media and try to play the video, the time shows as zero seconds rather than the 20 or 30 seconds it should. Pressing play gives a message that the video...
