Samsung Galaxy Prime Questions from New User

[Kevin Christof]

So I called my sister phone and put my phone together with hers and put it on speaker and it both started making weird noises when I talked into it why is that? And could you potentially break your phone by doing that or is it fine because I don't want my phone to break thankyou .

So I've been thinking about restricting backround data on my Samsung grand prime but does it mess up anything I heard it saves battery on your phone is that true? Could you guys specify what it does and tell me if it saves battery thankyou and should I turn it on or leave it off

Guys I've been using this sunglasses lens cleaner to clean my phone screen / camera I'm wondering is it safe to use that and am I still able to use it ? It's a sunglasses lens cleaner and it comes with a spray and a cloth and i spray the spray on my phone and camera and wipe it could you guys tell me if its same to use ?

So my Samsung grand prime has been dying quite fast lately I've been using it at 3:04 pm on 97% and by 3:49-3:50pm it was on 91%-90% and I didn't even do much stuff I just went on the Internet and in the setting and on some built in phone apps from my carrier and the battery just goes down could you guys tell me if its going down normal or if its going down to fast thanks

You can use it as much as you want. It's not going to damage your phone.

No apologies. You can post multiple questions per thread if you would like. I'd suggest checking out the sub forum for the device you have.

Re: How to make your screen go to sleep??

No I turned it on I meant so does that me automatically when I turn my screen off it turns wifi off or is their a delay

That would depend on your wifi settings

Guys is it safe to wipe the front call speaker on ur phone with a micro fiber towl to clean it or could you damage it ? ( cleaning it with no liquid)

And are you able to clean it with liquid and a micro fiber towl or does it screw up your phone

If those don't work how do you clean the call speaker on ur phone so u don't mess it up or damage it

The phone is a Samsung grand prime

So if you have it on never does that mean the WiFi will turn off when you turn your screen off?

Re: cleaning your phone front phone speaker for calling

It will be fine.

Re: cleaning your phone front phone speaker for calling

I would spray some compressed air into the speaker grille

Re: will the Samsung grand prime get the marshmallow update

It may. I haven't heard anything about it though. Maybe see if you can contact Samsung directly about it?

Re: will the Samsung grand prime get the marshmallow update

I'd be shocked. Certainly not anytime soon. There are no plans announced to upgrade their flagships (Note 5, G6 etc) so the chance of them upgrading an also-ran seems unlikely..

Re: will the Samsung grand prime get the marshmallow update

I guess we have to wait and find out and tour always surprises us

Re: Samsung grand prime device dying fast help !

And one last question and I'll stop bothering you. " Should I turn this on"? (picture)

Posted via the Android Central App

Not a bad idea. It sounds like this feature will let you know if an app update wants more permissions, which is always good to know.

Re: I have 2 questions about " Smart Manager"

I'd just stick with cleaning the "Unnecessary Data" using the Smart Manager. Avoid cleaning "User Data," since you might end up losing some data you wanted to keep. Cleaning the Unnecessary Data doesn't hurt, but it also probably won't make a huge impact unless you're constantly getting low storage space warnings. The cached data that makes up the bulk of the Unnecessary Data can be of benefit to the apps you're using, because apps will temporarily store data in the cache to be accessed quickly later on, so it can actually make the app run a bit more quickly and efficiently.

So the bottom line is that if you're not having any problems with your phone's performance, leave it alone.

Re: is this normal usage battery drainer been using since this morning

Hi, we would need to see how long each app is running for by clicking into them - Messenger taking up 14% - how long have you had it open for?

 

[Kevin Christof]

Re: is this normal usage battery drainer been using since this morning

I never even opened messenger it drained 14% IDK why

Re: Samsung grand prime device dying fast help !

Does it drain battery or is it fine to use?
