I had an alert about a system update. I think I clicked on install later. Now it's gone and I can't see it. Phone is still on 8.0.0, when are we getting to 8.1? I don't want to wait for 9.0. What happened to fixing bugs?

I've noticed if I turn on Power saving, some apps that use network don't make a connection. Things like Netflix, Amazon Video, etc. The only fix I've found is to turn off power saving. Phone is Galaxy S9 Plus.

re: How do I exit the Amazon Music app when I'm finished listening? The music keeps playing when I try. Here's what I did. I played music again then stopped it. Then I had a notification in the notification area from the Amazon Music menu. *THEN* I swiped right in the notification area and...

Are Android updates on a certain schedule? I never noticed. I suppose it depends on the vendor? I'm on Verizon and I do get system updates, just not that often. I have had a few Pandora updates. My problem is a little similar. I'm in a 2015 Buick LaCrosse. Pandora worked great with a...

I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S9+. About a week ago I started having problems texting to/from certain contacts. I can receive a text from "Sam" but when I reply, "Sam" never gets my message. I don't know what the pattern is yet, I'm still trying to figure it out. I have Delivery reports turned...

That's a great idea thanks!

Thanks. That seems a little dumb though. Should be an X to close the window/app (camera).

The only way I can find to close the camera is to go into the task switcher. Is there a better way to close the camera if you accidentally open it?

Thanks this is helpful. It does this in my pocket which makes sense, I guess. Kind of annoying though.

Great phone. Really like it. But for the last week or so I've been seeing a white pop up message when I wake up the phone from sleep. The message disappears before I can read it, but it looks like the Bixby message I got when it was first set up. I disabled Bixby Home and I wonder if that...

Thanks to both of you for good answers. Really appreciate you taking the time to look at this. I never thought to swipe left/right to get the clock back. I like that. So far, I really like this S9+. It's a nice improvement from my old S5. I thought it would be too big but it's a nice size.

UPDATE: This turned out to be an OS issue. After an update to the OS my problems were solved. No more corrupted SD card. I don't have the details of exactly which update it was. I've left my Samsung Galaxy S5 behind and I'm now on a Samsung Galaxy S9+. But I wanted to document that there...

I don't actually have a PIN or password set but I'm talking about the screen that comes up when the phone goes to sleep and wakes up. I think it's the lock screen. I've only had this phone for less than 2 weeks. Today I noticed it stopped displaying the date on the lock screen. I changed the...

I'm currently on a Samsung Galaxy S9+ after upgrading from a Galaxy S5 that worked (mostly) perfectly in my 2015 Buick LaCrosse. The S9+ won't always pair up with Bluetooth. Plus Pandora switches to bluetooth as soon as I select that option on my display. Anyway! my question is about the...

I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S5 on Verizon. Has the very latest software including today's security patch. I had a 32GB SD Card for two years without problems. Then one day it was corrupted. Still don't know why. So I bought two different 128GB SD Cards. Both had the same problem. After a...
