New Owner questions
Hello,
I just got my S4 and I have a couple of questions (sorry if they seem repetitive - but I have looked on the internet).
- Wallpapers. I'm struggling to find a dark wallpaper for my phone. Can anyone point me in the right direction? When saving the wallpaper do I save it to the Gallery to access later?
- In the messaging app (Samsung's), when I start typing a name in, I get email addresses of people that I have emailed. I deleted the emails but they are still there. What can I do?
- Security. Since this is my first smartphone, I'm concerned about privacy and making sure that my device has no viruses. I'm currently using the app Lookout. Is this sufficient?
- I'm trying to dedicate what app to use to locate and control my device. I wouldn't be connected to the internet all the time so that rules out Android Device Manager. I was looking at Cerberus anti theft app. Does anyone have any experience with this? Also I have two factor authentication on, so would I need to turn it off and get a new number if my phone is lost/stolen?
- What can google back up on my phone? I'm looking for a simple solution to back up my apps, contacts, sms, calender and settings. I was also looking at Google Keep for notes. Does anyone have any experience with it?
- When Google Calender is offline, and I make some changes, will it sync it back when it connects to the internet? Does Samsung's calender back up?
- What password keeper to use?
- Are there sounds that I can download to replace the default ringing, messages and notifications. Where do I need to put the file so the phone can make it default?
Thank you for reading
