group chat messages disappeared

I was trying to share a u-tube video yesterday evening when all of my content in a group chat disappeared.  I have a Samsung Galaxy S8.  When I reestablished the group chat and texted that everything had disappeared, my daughter replied from her iphone (latest version) and A LOT of my content came back, except for content from yesterday all the way back to July 2021.  I have contacted T-Mobile and they have a ticket in for the issue.  Just wondering if I can get that content back.

Where is the April security patch for unlocked Galaxy S22 Ultra?

Owners of T-Mobile locked S22 Ultras are saying that they’ve received the April security patch 5 days ago.  I have yet to see it available for my unlocked version.  T-Mobile seems to make our unlocked phones a lower priority for security patches.  This happened last year with my unlocked Note 20 Ultra where T-Mobile provided no security patches at all from June until September (3 months)!  One would think that they would try to take care of owners of unlocked phones as well since we can easily take our business to another carrier if we aren’t happy with T-Mobile’s seeming lack of concern about our security.

Motorola One 5G Ace stuck with Android Version 10

I just purchased a Motorola One 5G Ace. Why am I stuck with Android Version 10?  And why is my version 10 behind 2 months on security patches?  My last update was 1/8/22 and it delivered 11/1/21 security patches.

USB Preferences

I been charging my Google phone like I using do for the last two years and everything was fine.  One day it stopped charging for some odd reason and it took me a day or so to figure out that a feature called “USB Preferences” which is something very new but I never wanted it or I downloaded it.  So now when ever I try to charge my phone up sometimes it will charge at its usual pace or sometimes it will charge very slow which it never done that before.  There are times it won’t charge and I have to find this option on my phone to make it charge at all (the picture I shared will show what I mean now).  Is there a way I can try to resolve this issue?  I don’t like it when I have to activate the charging process using USB Preferences which makes no sense now.  I am even considering in the future when I get a new smart phone I can use a charger pad instead of using a cable.  Any advice of how to resolve this now I really appreciate it.

No matter what size SD card I put in the phone after awhile it says it is corrupted.  Now the camera won’t work.  This is only after 5 months!

why does this document say the z fold 3 and flip has esim?

https://www.t-mobile.com/support/devices/samsung-esim-to-esim-first-time-use This document lists Z fold 3 and flip 3 as having Esim. I do have an Eid written on the box of my fold 3, Samsung during the pre orders advertised the phone would have Esim. However they still have not yet enabled Esim on USA Units. My software is up to date, and in settings > connections > i have no sim card manager.  Is this document incorrect or is it correct and i just need to factory reset my phone & do the hold vol down for 5 seconds step?

What's taking so long with Android 12

Android 13 is expected to had a developer build soon and many of us still don’t have Android 12; what’s taking so long?  I’m on a OnePlus 8t+; I have neither the time nor inclination to install a different build but getting sick of waiting so long for software updates.

Notifications on Z Flip

I just set up an account with T Mobile and I got a new Samsung Flip Z. I have a notification from T Mobile, that shows on the top of the phone, regarding some downloads. I cannot delete it! It’s been showing for hours now and it’s really annoying. I can delete all other notifications except this one from T Mobile. How do i delete?  Thanks.

Can I use my Tmobile SIM in a TMobile network affiliated phone (ie SImple Mobile etc.)?

Needing a new phone, but not looking to spend an arm and a leg. I have found some phones that I like that are through providers that use the TMobile network. Can I use these phones with my TMobile SIM card, or do I have to specifically look for unlocked phones?

Worst update ever

I've always been a huge fan of OnePlus. The battery life has always been great and the OS being very simple to use as well. A few days ago I woke up and I received the new Android 12 update to my OnePlus 9. Everything looked completely different. My favorites in my contacts were rearranged. I almost didn't recognize my own phone. Being a business owner and running my business from my phone this has been a huge adjustment and inconvenience. On top of that the battery life has been sucked from this device. I don't know if the update has turned on applications that run constantly in the background but it is killing my battery. There needs to be a new solution to this update! Extremely frustrated and unable to stand by the brand OnePlus any longer.

Disaster with my online phone order

I ordered a phone online (with rep assistance) almost 2 weeks ago and received confirmation.  When I never got an email with a tracking number, I checked online and my status says “delayed”.  I called and got bounced around to 3 different people with a variety of comments but no real answer.  I was told  by one rep I’d receive an email within 24 hours.  Nothing. I called back 2 more times and spoke to people in the order support dept.  I still get no definite answer what the issue is and to wait and call back in a few days.  Has anyone else had issues like this? Any suggestions?  I’m about ready to cancel my order and also my home internet.  I’m so disappointed and frustrated with their customer service. It seems like they bend over backwards to make a sale and then don’t care about anything else.

it's always the last thing that fixes that stubborn mystery behavior #short text #bank verification #samsung galaxy #android

#short text #bank verification #samsung galaxy #androidafter what seemed like a race to the bottom to resolve a persistent issue I was having with a newly ported Samsung Galaxy A10e to T-Mobile, I found the mystery lied in hidden permission settings. I had T-mobile support working with me as well to resolve this and it was also escalated to a higher team.Onto the actual issue. Setting up this A10e with my apps went fine until my us bank app. I never received the verification codes when I first logged in to the app despite multiple resends. tried many, many things that it could be but never fixed. two days go by with no luck. finally late last night I found that an area in the android permissions called “Special access” contained the elusive fix:From Home screen, navigate: Settings > Apps tap the options ellipsis in upper right corner Tap Special access Tap Use Premium text message services Tap the app icon of the messaging app your phone is using by default: Choose Ask or Always all

Mobile Phone Hotspot not letting me play multiplayer games

Hello, so I just started using my Mobile Phone Hotspot to play video games on my laptop(League of Legends, Apex Legends, Battlefield) and initially I had no issues. It was working, but now that I got more speed so I won’t lag, my multiplayer games won’t connect. My  hotspot works, but it’s not communicating with video game servers. I looked into it and apparently it deals with porting but that was a few months ago. My games were working just a few weeks ago and now wont connect just recently. Is there a fix or a setting I can do?
