turn on Unknown sources and find the app online and sideload it. It works I'm on a low budget A10e and it runs perfectly fine

Its not really the "Device or Manufacturers" fault in my opinion. The app developers have found ways of manipulating their file paths and how they are handle through the partition to scatter the files about the systems internal memory. So instead if a : system/system/data where you could format a partitioned sd card to mimic that file path pretty easily they have crazy file paths like system/data/data/obb. for some parts and others for other parts which confuses the FATS32 format that weve all grown accustomed to. Again the Developers do this to keep their apps running close to the internal processor as it limits Doors (/)file paths it has to travel to locate the app. I honestly believe the "CONSUMER STANDARD" should be 1 United Format and should be law when you submit your apps into the Google Play Store for Token Authority review. I can move almost any app I want to external because I know how to trace down the files and mimic their file path but on an sd card. If you download a File Explorer (I recommend ES File Explorer) most commonly used in a Rooted phone but has a lot of options just plain Jane. Go online and find the file path of the apk. you are wanting to move and you can mirror that file path by writing a new one in your ad card. Its alot more work but is doable. Again, there should be a system standard in place because the lack of is deeming any "Real" use of an sdcard useless. When we buy a device and they promote blahs blahs blahs with a 64g expandable it kinda feels like a useless feature. Hopefully they will fix in the future. I dont mind if GOOGLE NEWS takes a few seconds longer to open and load if the 187mb isn't resting on my internal processors chest when doing it ya know. Not to mention Companies who are providing the phone would be happier if everything and the kitchen sink werent resting on the internals also. I'm with You. I'd sign a Petition for Change on thus problem

If you enter Developers Mode there are places to adjust this. it's a feature to make sure the device doesnt blow your speakers when connected to another device or Samsung would be liable. Heres where you should head to. Settings/About Phone/Build Number...keep touching the build number and you will enter your Developers mode. From there you will see it listed in your settings at the bottom. Go into dev mode and look for "Turn Off Absolute Volume" . Thus should allow you to take manual control of your volume controls, bypassing Samsungs recommended Presets. *Note: doing so means you will need to be cautious about where your settings are. For Example: If you were watching a YouTube video at Max volume you wouldn't want to hop in your car and make a call or what not without first turning down your volume a bit or you risk blowing your car speakers which wouldn't be Samsungs fault as you made the decision to do so. Hope That Helps ...heres a couple screen shots . my phone looks different but same concept to get ya there

It means you are on a Secured VPN (Virtual Private Network)

open Settings/Software Update/Last Update then scroll to very bottom.

SHADOWGATE · ‎11-23-2020

it should come with a Server_patch and a Security_patch also. And will delete apps that are preinstalled but outdated while installing new apps that the company has made deals with whether its Disney+ , Hulu , Peacock etc.

from what I've read they are doing a full system update for the built in apps for the tv (hulu, vudu, etc.) and also rolling out Google Assistant and all of its functions to the TVs also. It's a Big deal as far as improvements go and your tv having a more immersive system with all your other devices. Think they are scheduled to complete by the end of November early December. Hope that Helps

I think it would depend on the cellular towers. You might want to get "Carrier Specific" when purchasing for them (whether its prepay or otherwise) check which carriers have the best coverage and go from there. You'd hate to purchase a Verizon based phone and he or she only have good coverage on ATT or something. Phones can be transferred from carrier to carrier or you can buy carrier unlocked. I'd weigh the pros and cons of each. Alot of carriers are offering really great benefits for switching carriers because obviously they are taking their competitors customer base. So getting a factory unlocked phone wont give you those same perks as opposed to switching carriers would. So do a little shopping of which towers are best in your friends area then from there see what great deals that particular carrier offers. They might have a deal for first time customers and a totally different one for switching so if you brought them a Verizon phone (paid off) to say...T-mobile they might say "Hey you get a $200 gift card for switching" or "heres a free headphones and case package" or something to that extent. Hope that Helps

When you took the picture of your Beautiful Dog, did you happen to take a Screenshot??? if so, the screenshot would have captured everything, including the date and time, and now that you've set it as a wallpaper the "Actual Clock" is displaying over your screenshots image?. It's just a thought

SHADOWGATE · ‎11-22-2020

Good Luck Hope it Helps I'll keep thinking of other reasons it could be happening i.e. hearing impairment settings or restrictions and see if there could be another setting causing it

SHADOWGATE · ‎11-21-2020

you can bypass the Absolute Volume presets in Developers Mode. the device is factory preset with the equalizer so as to not damage the speaker. turning off that feature will allow you to manually set the volume and it should stay there

SHADOWGATE · ‎11-20-2020

No Worries. Thank Samsung just glad you were able to figure it out. Of course the way technology moves , by the time you get your TV they may have figured out how to digitally broadcast it into your brain so you'll have to start all over again. lol

SHADOWGATE · ‎11-20-2020

Are you getting Digital Channels is that what you mean. There was a mandate to Telecommunications that Any and All major networks must deliver Free Cable Channels to those who do not have cable. It's so they cannot monopolize the market forcing you to buy cable access for Information. If a company charges premium they in turn must broadcast through the air waves a digital version of the broadcast so Information and News isn't being withheld. That being said, your new tv has a built in Reciever that picks up those broadcasts automatically. About 10 years ago you would have seen this in the form of a Digital reciever box and an antenna. Nowadays it's one solid design and prebuilt into the tv. so like Fox News might be called WFNB1400 in digital and be broadcast for free from a nearby larger city that your tv is picking up. This can be turned off if it bothers you. Or, since your mother is 93 you might find that she just wants to get on the tv and watch news and local shows which in turn would eliminate the need for cable all together. Hope That Helps

all I can think of is a faulty remote or device sorry wish I had a better answer

SHADOWGATE · ‎11-17-2020

Aggravating??? makes it hard to type???? welcome to the Party....whoever thought that was a good idea should be fired lol

SHADOWGATE · ‎11-17-2020

For the most part YES. most app developers design them to run as close to the internal processor as possible for speed and efficiency. The further the apps are from the internal through partitions (data/data/obb) as opposed to (data/obb) for example , the slower the app opens and functions. That being said, if you go into your Developers Options [Settings, scroll down to About Phone, find BUILD NUMBER and click on it repeatedly until you initiate dev mode] once open, scroll down until you find the option FORCE APPS TO EXTERNAL. This will give you a bit more options to move any and all that are able to be moved. Hope This Helps

you'll have to use the original remote I believe

SHADOWGATE · ‎11-15-2020

Enter the service menu: 1 - turn of tv with remote 2 - press and release in the following order on the remote: Info, Menu, Mute. Make sure remote is pointing at the tv 3 - turn on the tv from the remote 4 - you will see the service menu. using the down arrow on the remote select the Reset option. Using the right arrow button at this point will do a hard reset. 5 - Wait a few seconds, turn TV on 6 - you will have to rescan analogue and digital channel. This may or may not be helpful. It's something to perform if you've tried all of the others i.e. new batteries, no obstructions to the buttons, sound control settings are all correct. Hope It Helps

SHADOWGATE · ‎11-15-2020

enable your Developer Mode on your Phone.(open Settings then About Phone, then Software Information, then Build Number and start clicking it)~keep doing so until you get the developer mode enabled banner. Then, in your dev options, scroll down to USB Configuration Settings. Inside there you should find the proper settings needed to recognize your camera device. Heres some pictures of what you are looking for.

SHADOWGATE · ‎11-14-2020

it is a preset to dim the entire phone making it easier to view in the dark . there are no other presets available. If you are looking for other vision impairment settings then you will find them in the High Contrast settings. Also might find Dark Mode settings useful. Hope This Helps

SHADOWGATE · ‎11-13-2020

Sweet!!! it's always the little things huh...you get everything set just the way you want and someone moves the lamp in the room 2 inches to the left and Boom!!! everything is off LOL . Glad to Help

SHADOWGATE · ‎11-13-2020

have you tried going into your Home Screen settings and turning off your Apps Button???

SHADOWGATE · ‎11-04-2020

open Developers options and change how your wired file transfer should work. you can change your wire to several different settings like Charge Only, MIDI, USB Debugging etc. Hope that helps

SHADOWGATE · ‎11-03-2020

no worries. it actually sounds like you're 3/4 the way there anyways. if you treat it like you were building your own custom rom from here on out then it's just about injecting it with your apks and tweaking it. Be sure whoever helps knows you have Root and give them a list of which apps you need and ask them if they can trace the file system for each. some of those apks have root systems that spread out so each will need to be placed in its correct place when you delete the Korean ones. gonna be doing alot of file transfer into system/bin system/system/user/bin and all that but it will be cool when you get it done. Good Luck to You

SHADOWGATE · ‎11-03-2020

if you have root then download Titanium Backup. I'd recommend buying the full version. After you have backed up everything then head back over to XDA DEV. from there start the process in your Titanium Backups File Explorer or FSfile explorer with Root access). While at XDA ask someone to do a Stock File Dump of the Apps you wish to replace. After you have collected the files(apks needed from the stock from dump) then go through and delete the files in the system that you do not want. After that just put the US stock apps back into the system/files .

SHADOWGATE · ‎11-03-2020

then have you tried putting in an US sim??? then making a call that has a duration of 5 minutes or longer. usually you dial like 198 and let it call connect for 5 minutes and then pop the sim out and back in and its switched over. At least that's what we used to do back in the day

SHADOWGATE · ‎11-03-2020

you can change location settings and language settings I know that isn't exactly what you want but it might be your only option outside of getting a US issued phone. I understand your point though cause it would be aggravating

SHADOWGATE · ‎11-03-2020

It's harder to develop for Samsung because of the Bootloader Lock. it's not as simple as say Motorola where you can start from the Splash Screen and do a whole build. Because of this there is less development

SHADOWGATE · ‎11-03-2020

I believe it is possible but I think there will be problems when flashing involving the CSC. Like say if the phone is from India and set to Vodafone which isn't 3g then the Firmware would go through most likely but your service wouldn't be able to be put in to create a service for you here in the states because they were never installed for Veruzon or T Mobile or Att etc. so I would think that part would have to be initiated in part by one of those companies that way the device has proper radio to connect to tower. I recommend doing more research and be careful not to cause a Bootloop when flashing a new firmware. Also note that Samsung Bootloader is locked so getting through the splash screen might be an issue but from then on you should be able to flash it. You would just be left with the foreign Splash Screen from the boot. I'd recommend going to verizon or some other place and have them do it all. Tell them you speak both languages just prefer English and they might flash it all for you if they know you are moving to their company. I also recommend to take a moment and head over to XDA Developers as they are much more knowledgeable in areas such as this and the resources you need are already there if there are any developed for this Hope that Helps
