Is it only one theme or all themes? Is it the same while booted in safe mode?

Have you ever considered scheduling the text message to be sent to you at a later time? That way you wouldn't have to rely on super fast send/close to get a notification.

Sounds like you may have the "Auto restart" feature enabled. Open Settings Open Device care Click on the 3 dot menu and select "Advanced" Disable "Auto restart", or click on it to change when it restarts.

FYI, cellular data usage during a phone call does not need VoLTE. Some carriers don't allow it, but it has been available for many years.

It sounds like you may have the home screen layout locked. To disable this: Find a blank spot on the screen and long press there until icons appear across the bottom. Click on "Home screen settings" Click "Lock Home screen layout" off (slid to the left).

Not sure how much space you have left but when your device is out of memory or nearly out of memory a lot of odd behavior can happen.

Just FYI, you can still manage your clipboard. Open the keyboard as if you were going to type a message. Click on the 3 dots in the top row to the right. Click the clipboard icon This allows you to save items to a file, delete them, or paste them into the editing area.

Really don't need to know if it is recorded slow mo or not. Lets assume that recording is 60 fps and slow mo is 240 fps. That means that in slow mo you capture 4 times the number of frames per second. Let's assume that the playback is always 60 fps. The 240 fps video will appear to be at 0.25 speed since it takes 4 seconds to get through 1 second of actual video.

The gear 360 has some demo photos when you first connect to it. These are probably the ones that you are seeing.

You need a phone with the correct hardware to use 5G. The S10+ does not have that hardware.

If the S8 has Bixby routines, you should be able to create a Bixby routine to turn the data off and another one to turn the data on. You can put icons for both on your screen so you can just click easily.

Make sure that you have adequate screen brightness when showing the QR code. Many of those scanners require your phone to have a very bright screen so that the scan can be completed.

Wi-fi calling is a carrier feature so Samsung wouldn't know if your carrier allowed it on your service plan or not.

The camera has an option to take pictures if you show your palm. Perhaps you did that. There are also options to take a picture if you say some key words like "Smile", "Cheese", "Capture" etc.

Pinch & Expand you'd think'd be optional here like viewing in Gallery ->Pictures. Here's the size of them in a screenshot. They were half the size on Android 9 and the grid rows of it were larger to fit more on the screen at once. With a double downward screen drag it was really useful how I had it. Any more suggestions? That screenshot looks normal.

I would try clearing the cache partition. To do that: Turn off the device. Press and hold the Volume Up key and the Bixby / Power key. Once the Android Recovery screen comes up, release the buttons. Use the Volume Down button until you are highlighting ‘Wipe cache partition.’ Press the Power button to select ‘Wipe cache partition.’ Use Volume Down to highlight Yes. Press the Power button to confirm the action to clear the cache. Wait for a second as the system wipes the cache. Press the Power button again to reboot the device. This will return the device to the normal interface.

I would check to see if they are being battery optimized. Press on the app icon until the menu pops up. Click on "App info" Click on Battery Look under "Optimize battery usage". If it says "Optimizing battery usage" then the battery algorithms could be pausing the playback. To remove the app from being optimized, click the "Optimize battery usage" Click the menu near the top of the screen and select "All" Scroll down to that app (or use search). Click on the app to turn off battery optimization (the switch will slide to the left when off).

Wifi calling is a carrier feature. You will need to discuss with Spectrum.
