Sudden Battery Drain on Samsung M51

I recently updated my M51 to OneUI 3.A couple days after the update, 1 Hr 45 Mins on YouTube would only take 8.3%. Right now, 40 mins on YouTube went through 5%. It's the same with other apps as well.I've kept almost all apps in sleep or deep sleep. Only auto-sync is on. Yet, I am still facing sudden battery drain.What can I do about this?

Phone worked last week. Today it's "incompatible!"

We passed my wife's Galaxy S7, which she's used over a year on Cricket, to my daughter. We put her Cricket SIM card, which she had on a 4G LTE Cricket phone for over a year into this one and now it's considered incompatible. Took it to the useless store, who tried to sell me a crap phone. Why all of the sudden this 4G phone and 4G SIM are "incompatible?" It's up to date and everything.

S21 Ultra Overheating Question

Hi everyone. Sorry if this has been posted before, but I got my new phone with 256GB yesterday. When I touch the phone after not doing a lot (downloading apps), the phone feels hot to the touch. Internal temperature is around 35 degrees Celsius. I'm coming from the S8+ and never had this issue. I've also factory reset the phone and did not use smart switch (as I read this could be an issue), same problem.Just wondering, is your S21 Ultra warm to the touch? I don't feel like that's normal. Your thoughts are greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Phone is full but only 10gb is used out of the 108??

Hi.S20 5G.When I plug my phone into my PC it says I have a total capacity of 108GB but only 2gb free. The files inside only make up 10gb. What is going on? I have only had the phone for a month and have very few apps installed beyond the bloatware. Also very few pics, media etc.I was recording 60fps UHD videos earlier but deleted them via the Gallery app. Are the videos not fully deleted (trash can or something?)Is the operating system / apps etc. really taking up 90GB?

Seriously? This is how you retain custimers?

So I'm toying with the idea of upgrading my phone to a Samsung S20 FE. Take a look at the website and see it's $399. But wait..... As soon as I log into my account, the price jumps to $599. Seriously?!! This is how you entice customers to stay with the service? Disgusting. Totally and thoroughly disgusting. And before the obligatory "contact us on Twitter or Farcebook" reply pops up, I don't do social media.

The s7 edge was a beautiful phone

I remember upgrading from my s5 to an s7 edge and oh boy it was the most beautiful phone at that time. I still think its one of the better looking phones even to date. The colors they used and the way the glass shined, the double edged screen (even though it was a nuisance sometimes) it was such a good looking phone.What do you think is the best looking galaxy phone ever ?

Galaxy A20

Why is the Galaxy A20 no longer going to be supported on Cricket’s networks? Supposedly it’s because it doesn’t support HD Voice / VoLTE, yet as you can see in my phone’s settings, there’s clearly an option to enable it:  Why is it not going to be supported anymore? Thanks in advance.

Galaxy A21 Sim Tray

I recently bought an A21 (SM-A215W) for my mother, but she has lost the Sim tray out of the phone. I have tried Amazon, Ebay and even Samsung Canada themselves, but no one seems to have access to a Sim tray for this specific phone. I have found plenty for an A21s, but I've tried them and they don't fit. Samsung directed me to a third party repair centre, and they simply said they don't cover that phone. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

S20 FE exynos battery life?

I am using a s20FE( EXYNOS). I bought it used from a person. The phone is 4 months old. The battery life is simply unbearable. I am getting 4 to 5 hours of screen on time. Even if i turn off 120hz, i struggle to get anything above. The exynos is simply not good and it heats up while using camera. Simply disappointed.

Device unlock requirements does not work with customer needs.

I have had my Samsung device for over a period of 6 months. My job descriptions requires me to travel overseas from time to time and there is not time I will be in the country continuously for over 6 months. on top of that, their roaming coverage does not cover some of the territories I visit. I have called customer service multiple multiple times and no resolution whatsoever. I have been a customer for over 5 years and I am considering dropping cricket because they dont value customer situations.

Wallpaper Questions

Hi, Galaxy S20+After a lot of looking around, I'm not finding what i'm looking for with wallpaper, so I thought i'd ask.Ideally, I would like live wallpaper that mirrors the weather outside (rain, snow, storm, etc), and the light (dark at night, light during the day). I want this over some kind of landscape, or over a photo of my own, or something similar; but not over a cartoon or anything like that. TBF, I only tried the free versions, not the paid versions. So I'm asking if anyone knows a free app that does this.If that doesn't exist, my second option is to have a picture from my gallery, but I want it to scroll when I switch between home screens. I found no settings to allow this, and I only found one app that sort of does this, but it scrolls underneath the home screens when you drag your finger, which makes it look terrible.Anyone have any good suggestions for either of these? Ideally free? Thanks.

New phone warranty is awful

I bought a samsung phone through cricket thinking why not. Well as I have found out 9 days later the new phone is out of warranty according to cricket. They gave me samsungs phone number to call them and samsung said that cricket has a 15 day exchange/ return warranty. So that being said someone is lying and now I am stuck with a pos useless phone. Time is running out and cricket will not guarantee nothing. At least with ebay they have a 30 day return policy which is way better then this jip joint of a business. Now I am having to dispute the charges through my credit card because of cricket. So all this being said do not buy anything from here because you WILL get ripped off if you have any problems.

I already have visual voicemail.. much of what I find is rather funny

I have visual voicemail and for the most part can see messages transcribed or at best if they are not making any sense at all due to the interpretations of messages, I can at least see who was calling.. However, regular voice mail often notifies me that I’ve got voicemail messages, so upon my attempt to access I am asked for password.  I input all types of passwords that I would have chosen yet nothing is working.  Unfortunately after chat hours or calling hours the automated suggestions of pressing 1 for instructions again ask for my password.  Can I at least share with you that I never .. not once.. ever set up an actual password for ‘regular voicemail’ ?  Because I never did that.  How is it that I am to supply a password if I never set one up?  And if (thinking outside the box) the pw is my account password then I am concerned because the @ symbol isnt in the options to input for a password.  I tried all 4-digit passwords I would typically want for access but nothing is working.. I
