https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S25/Noticing-a-lot-of-audio-issues-with-S25-Ultra/m-p/3147568#M9382 Accept for the one big name carrier I'm currently with. I don't trust them. I don't think if I bought service through them they would be able to lock an unlocked device. But then again who knows with esims, but likely not possible. Either way it doesn't matter because after this experience I won't be going back to them. But, anyway, yeah I thought about a factory reset, but I'd hate to do that and it not fix the issue then. Have to go get another phone and do it again. I have way way too many accounts to sign in and out of. And as mentioned in my OP I still have a couple of important accounts I can't get into. It's ridiculous you would think these big corps would have a protocol in place to get around 2FA if you can prove your identity, but company claims they do but has been giving me a serious runaround and the other company does not and says I have to create another account with different email then they can merge them and that's how it will bypass, but still no answers or resolutions ugh its grueling <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":persevering_face:">😣</span>. Thank you for your advice though and input. I will for sure do that next time. <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":thumbs_up:">👍</span> Thu, 20 Feb 2025 14:12:35 GMT MartianTechSavvy 2025-02-20T14:12:35Z
