Outside of ethical standards, I can only imagine it was engineered towards the largest audience of users (because that's who is using the product and providing feedback). Also, they used to have each skin tone indivual with the emoji but in recent years combined them under one icon for easy organization. Needless to say, after choosing your skin tone it stays defaulted to that forever unless you clear the keyboard data or factory reset. I don't believe the "factory appearance" of a lighter skin tone to be the cover at the start a big issue when you can easily change it to your liking. If there was only one tone, they would certainly be called unpleasant names

you may very well be facing that problem because of no security on your phone (as Whatsapp is a very secure message service)

Thats usually because while the app and screen are active your phone is not recognizing that as a touch signal even though whatsapp forced your screen on

For sure! It took 1.5 months for samsung to answer my error report in the first place so I know exactly what it feels like. lol Although, I am not very sure why the emojis with skin tones exist if not for personal expression... Seems kind of pointless of emoji means "emotional icon", and an emotion is not resemblant of your face color. lol but that's just me. Also, to clarify about the keyboard... Samsung Keyboard is a system-level app, meaning it is only updated as the system itself is updated. Your social media apps are not system apps, which means they can be updated through the play store independent of your system. What makes Gboard unique is it allows the user to make it look and function like they want and give you the latest emojis regardless of what system you have; that's why I recommend it. If you used any other keyboard, you wouldn't experience the same freedom.

It's because you don't have the latest OS. You can get around that by installing Gboard on either. Google implemented skin tones in emojis years ago but because samsung keyboard is locked to the system version, it is only as good as the system updates they give it. Because both devices youre using are old or low budget, it is no surprise that you don't have them by default. Android 10, Galaxy S10 example - 🧑🏾🧒🏾 👩🏾 🦱 But as for regular emojis (smiley, laugh, wink) the skin tones do not apply because the emojis do not represent you as a person but rather your emotion in the moment.

The link sharing feature is a part of all galaxy phones running Android 9 and later. It can be avoided by swiping up to view the various apps you are capable of sending pictures to.

Go to the home screen settings, tap on app icon badges, then turn on "notifications on app icons" and it will replicate your Note 9 view.

A constant restart like that is due to a system failure. If there were to be bad code in the OS update, it could be on a restart cycle in an attempt to fix it. But if it doesn't fix it, it will keep cycling regardless. You have to factory reset it to return to normal. There is a CHANCE that new code is competing with old code and your phone doesn't know which one to read.

Notes should be backed up to your samsung account automatically (and if not, make sure to turn on sync in the Notes settings). So when you have a data connection again, it should show your notes as usual.

To network unlock your Tracfone, you would need to have service on it for 12 months minimum. There is no other way. After the 12 month mark, you can talk to customer service and they will allow unlocking.

Take your sim card out of the phone, clean it. Blow into your sim slot to clear any dust. Power down the phone. Put the sim card back in, power up. Should work like new.

That happens whenever your data either experiences a slowdown or your phone temporarily loses signal. Restart the Hotspot or restart your phone. Either should push it back to functioning.

There is specific firmware installed on every pair of pricy headphones (for app integration, noise modification, etc), so chances are that the firmware doesn't recognize the adapter and refuses to connect to it. I have a USB C to AUX adapter myself (from when I owned a phone with no headphone jack) and it didn't pick up my Beats through the wire, but it works great with my S10. May have to consider trying to listen with someone else's adapter, otherwise either the headphones or the adapter is defective.

Galaxy S10e here, came from the A line. Definitely bigger bang for the buck. Honestly I just want RCS built into the Samsung Messages app universally so I don't have to use that Google version. Black looks better than grey on AMOLED.
