The newest version of device care doesn't clear the cache anymore. You ne3d to ho into settings/apps/device care, click on the three dot menu, and select 'uninstall updates.' That will restore the cache cleaning function. You will need to disable automatic updates in both Google play and Samsung Galaxy store to keep this function from being removed in a new update.

You can enter the router settings and specify which bands to use. Check with your router instructions as to how to accomplish this.

I would suggest that you take the phone to a reputable service center and see if they can recover your data prior to doing a factory reset.

I have the same problem problem when I hold me phone or tablet for too long. It's not a problem with the phone itself but with the fact that you are gripping something for a prolonged perioud of time. It's reducing blood flow in your fingers and hands and causing nerve and muscle fatigue. Simply switching hands more often or using a cell phone stand will help. Getting a case with a hand strap in back can really help too.

I don't know when they will update. It's up to your carrier to make the updates available.

Bixby voice isn't available for the A20. Just Bixby home which you already have. Bixby voice is embedded in the firmware and isn't downloaded.

As for bluetooth and wifi, you can leave them on all the time if you want. It doesn't affect battery life that much but I would suggest turning them off when they are mot needed. Wifi especially when you are not at home or work as a safety feature.

It's difficult to explain here so I would suggest doing a Google search but you can set up your phone to optimize itself every day and also use adaptive battery feature to help extend battery life. YouTube has some good videos that shows you what to do.

Optimizing means shutting off some apps to save battery, clearing out unused or unnecessary files, turning things like bluetooth and wifi off, and other ways to save space and battery. The app needs permissions in order to do this. It also needs permissions to change system setting for the sane reason. You don't need to allow those permissions but optimizing via the app won't work, as well as other app specific features. You can allow the permissions and it won't harm your phone or delete any of your private data like contacts, picfures,ect.

Insert earbuds tends to close off the ear canal so much so that no air can curculate and may cause the discomfort you're experencing. Try switching to an over the ear headphone set once in a while and make sure you clean the earbud plugs throughly ever time you use them.

Sone themes can override any ringtones and notifications you set. Have you installed any themes lately? If so, try uninstalling them and see if that helps.

Some themes restrict what sounds can be used. Try a different theme and see if it helps.

Try uninstalling the google play app update in settings. Go ino settings...google play app... click on the three dot menu and select uninstall updates. Then exit out to the home screen and open google play again. Google play should update itself and, hopefully, work correctly.

There is no way for me to tell what the previous owner did. Any button reordering that may have been done would have been overwritten with the factory reset. They may have used the wrong button combo and broght up the recovery menu accidentally. It's hard to say.

Forcing a restart like you described shouldn't do a factory reset. It should just shut off the phone. I hope you have your phone backed up just in case.

That's the carrier 'punishing' you for not buying one of their phones I guess.

Samsung messages does support RCS but it is also carrier dependent. Your carrier may not support it to an unbranded phone.
