Get a friend to enable Hotspot on their phone (as long as there is unlimited data and service is allowed). Connect to their hotspot and try checking for updates.

Bought unlocked, or is network unlocked? I should have been specific in the first post. If bought unlocked, you should get OTA updates by manually checking for system updates when connected to WiFi. If that doesn't work, try what Gary suggested. You will need both smart switch and Samsung USB drivers installed for it to work.

I'm not sure if you are using Google or Samsung Pass for the autofill. Check to be sure that you set it up once you enable your preferred app. You will also need to enable autofill in your browser of choice. You should have a password (alphanumeric PIN) and / or biometric set up for better security of the authentication framework.

You should be able to download it from the Galaxy store. Mine came with both preloaded, but it's not on any data service.

You're still on 5.1? Is your phone locked or unlocked? Are with the same carrier you bought the phone from if locked?

It should be useful for online meetings or as a webcam. I will suggest covering it when you're not using it, though. It can be used for nefarious activities as well.

Ensure that you do not have the network SSID saved. Connecting to airplane network allows you access to just their services until you either pay for a connection beyond their service or if your plan allows for wifi on airplanes. You also need to have wifi calling enabled to use your carrier's data services-no voice services allowed yet.

T-mobile allows users to turn off/on 5G services, including voice over new radio. It's carrier dependent.

Did you buy the phone from AT&T and still have an active AT&T SIM card? Otherwise, indicate the original phone carrier/lock status and current carrier.

It's good that Samsung is again setting the stage for others to follow. As an iPhone user, it's becoming boring pitting one against the other.

I noticed the bottom of the screen was not responsive and should have been a temporary issue right after restarting, but it works once all apps are fully optimized. The good news is that this is not a permanent problem, at least for me. A restart will resolve it, but wait for apps to be optimized after initial restart before forcing a restart.

Hopefully, someone will provide you a solution. It could be a bug, but it's not common.

There are several setting options to turn auto sync off on Android. You need to check Google, account (system and Samsung), and individual apps to make sure the option you don't want on is off.

If you have a sim card from another carrier other than Verizon or its MVNO, put it in the phone. If it works, the phone is network unlocked. I am not sure if you're telling me Consumer Cellular doesn't use Verizon network or that a firmware update will not resolve the issue. As long as Verizon firmware is on the phone, not all services from another carrier will work. They make it harder to switch providers unless you know what you are doing, so you stay with them. Good luck with resolving it.

If you still see the SIM error message, it is not unlocked. Restart first, and if the error is still there, they are hoping you return to them.

Was the registered fingerprint deleted and re-added with the screen protector on? If not, you need to remove all fingerprints and add them again after you install the screen protector.

Consumer Cellular uses Verizon network for their services but it appears your phone is still locked to Verizon. That's why you don't have access to all calling features. Wifi calling and other cellular services are provided and managed by your carrier. If you have paid off the phone, request a network unlock from Verizon. Once it's done, you should not see the SIM error message. You should have Wifi calling enabled as well if supported by Consumer Cellular. Firmware update will not enable this feature. Phone needs to be unlocked by Verizon if paid off so you can use it with other carriers. Again, it works now because Consumer Cellular is on Verizon's network.

Change the notification categories to what you want in the app's settings. You can toggle off the notification for comment and other options that trigger the emails.

Have you tried changing the Bluetooth AVRCP version? From either 1.5 to 1.6 or 1.4? The hearing aid software may need to be updated as well. Reset the app, unpair the hearing aid, then try connecting/pairing after you change the AVRCP version.

Make sure you save whatever information that confirms that they received it. You should be contacting them for your replacement as well. I will be calling them to ensure they know the original phone is with them. Hope you recorded the IMEI and serial number of the 24. They will test it to make sure the issue wasn't caused by you before sending a replacement or charging you for both the 24 and trade-in.

Contact your carrier first. The company may need to update its systems or provide a new SIM.

If a device is connected to the Hotspot, it will stay on while connected, but it goes off after a certain time if no device is connected to it. Not every wifi network has an option for users log in. Even those with login option are set differently. Some require credentials while others just allows you to acknowledge that your activities are monitored while connected to the network. Others don't even have an interaction with the user. WiFi capable devices can auto connect to open network as long as the network is setup correctly.

In case you're not aware yet, NavStar got updated to allow you to hide the gesture bar.
