You could try deleting app caches as well. Some of them can take up quite a bit of space. While you can do it manually app by app, CCleaner has a deep clean option that can delete both visible and hidden caches and recover some space.

Of course they always say "it's possibly the control board." That is where they started with my mother's machine and 4 part replacements later they finally got it with that inverter board. Which apparently is a daughter board off that control board. The tech apologized and said that 7/10 times the control board is the issue. He is probably being truthful, which is why they all go straight to the control board. Best of luck and if that is the solution, you may want to add an appliance surge protector. Some of them carry a warranty that might pay for the cost of repair if the board goes again while it's connected.

That's too bad. I don't know if they just don't make them like they used to or what. My mother's washing machine is only about 5 years old and has had the issue that it has had. But my wife and I have a Samsung washer and dryer manufactured in 2007 and neither have had a single issue.

Your issue is definitely different than hers was then. With hers it would always pause at the end of the load with between 19 or so left. Right when it was about to start the spin for that particular cycle I think. Sometimes she could keep restarting your way through it. But often it just kept pausing. In your case it may be a faulty water inlet valve, faulty door switch or fill level switch. There are a few other possibilities as well. If you have the manual or look for a pdf version online, there is a way to have it display trouble codes. But getting them sometimes feels like entering Nintendo cheat codes. Push this button once, push that one twice while holding down another button, rotate the dial to the left. And they are all different in how you get to them.

Does it stop working with about 20 minutes or less left? My mother's washer was doing that and after they replaced pretty much everything starting with the main board, pump assembly, drive motor and a voltage regulator, it ended up being the inverter board. Luckily, he stopped charging me after the second visit. I have a feeling the guy definitely lost money on the repair. Her model is: WF42H5200AP/A2

Sorry about the delay in replying. My understanding may be in incorrect, but it is my understanding that the watch uses both GPS and steps. The way it was explained to me (and again it may be wrong) is that due to the small battery in the watches, GPS is not constant on due to the drain it would place on the small battery. So instead the watch pings at intervals to verify location and uses an algorithm that includes the step data to fill in the gaps between pings. Definitely look into that more if you are really curious. But before you spend too much time trouble shooting your 4, you may want to first verify which is more accurate. It could be each is off just a little +/- and the true distance is somewhere between the 2.

Are you sure that your husbands 3 is not being generous? My wife has a 3 and I have a 4. In our case I feel the 4 is more accurate. But accuracy may be down to the individual. Their stride, how they move their arms while walking, etc. I am taller and have a longer stride. That may make a difference. You could both try an experiment and each walk 60 steps in a straight line and see which watch records closest to 60 steps. Also, go into Samsung Health and click on Steps, then the 3 dots in the upper right, then Step Data to show. Select All Steps Galaxy Watch and Phone and try carrying your phone with you if you are not. You may find that improves accuracy.

I believe they claimed that NFC made MST redundant. But that may just be an excuse. Terminals around here are way behind. My wife just pulls out her Note 10, waves it and she is done. Neither Google Pay or Samsung Pay work on the terminals with my S22 Uktra. So I need to pull out the card. I was really sorry to see MST go. Moreso than the MicroSD card

I don't know that Samsung really ever did anything with UFS, except for internal memory. The MicroSD slots don't support it to the best of my knowledge. So only the notebooks? I don't know if that's enough of a market for it to be sustainable.

It is, but I wouldn't trust is as anything more than an extra layer of redundancy. Like I prefer a flash drive or external drive.

Is that something that you would actually want to do? I get calls frequently from people who are not in my contacts (yet), but I do need to take. Such as deliveries, repairmen, plumber, etc.

Doesn't the "Block Unknown/Private Numbers" setting do that. I don't seem to get any calls from unknown, so I had assumed it was working as it should.

I would really like to see the next version of buds have the ability to still connect with the case when it is closed. Then add a speaker to the case so that you can chirp the case if you misplace it. I have frequently set down the case with the buds inside or have had them in a pocket where I have had to spend a lot of time trying to find them again. Having the ability to connect and chirp the case would have made it simple.

If I had to guess, it is likely a failed water inlet valve or float switch. Unfortunately, it will have to be serviced.

There are a couple of different ways to do this, but Longhikers is probably the quickest and easiest. Some alternatives based on which text message app you are using... In Samsung messages. Long press the text you want to forward--press select text--press share--select the person you want to share it with. In Google Messages. Long press the text you want to forward--press the three dots in the upper right corner--press forward--under the forward message menu that appears choose the name of the person you want to forward it to. But I think the copy/paste method is just easier.

As mentioned above a 3rd party messaging app may be the only option that still supports that. I believe that Textra still does as one option.

I believe that you can do that in Textra, but I don't think either Samsung Messages or Google Messages has that option. At least I have never found the option in either.

As mentioned above, if you press on it it simply says "Phone restarted, unlock your phone to get notifications " or something close to that. Edit: I believe with Pixel you get a white "P" icon instead, but they both mean that you won't receive any notifications until the phone is unlocked. I *think* it is supposed to be a stylized robot head in a padlock showing that the phone is :locked: 'ed?

Yup, if they don't show that they ever picked up a 2nd box, they won't have any info. Which means it is an error on Samsung's part. The police are correct about no crime committed and you will never get a police report. You could try filing a claim with the Better Business Bureau and get them involved on your behalf. Also if you used a credit card or Samsung financing, you could also try contacting the financial institutions and file a claim with them stating you never received the full order that you are being charged for. Also, ask Samsung when they made the Galaxy S8 Ultra tablet a foldable device capable of fitting into a 9x6x5 box 🙂

That's crazy. Sounds as though they for some reason think it was stollen. But if it never arrived at your home, that's between Samsung and FedEx. No reason for you to have to do a police report. If it never left Coppell, TX maybe Samsung needs to fill one out. Have you been in contact with FedEx? Maybe they can put a track on it and issue you lost package documentation if they can't locate it. IF they even picked it up from Samsung. If they didn't, then the problem is solely Samsung's to resolve.

I agree with this as well. If the thinking was to prevent possible hearing damage if it chirps while in the ear, well I am pretty sure we know we didn't loose it in our ear. I wish the chirp was louder as well. It's easily muffled.
