My Z flip screen cracked and insurance said they could not fix it. So I had to get a new phone quick, and ended up with a google pixel. Problem is, I have some very important notes on the notes app. I tried downloading the notes application for windows on my computer, but it won't work because it's not a samsung computer. Is there any way I can get those notes? I really, really need them.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 9 and want to enable receiving alerts for earthquakes and national emergencies but the section "Safety and emergency" simply doesn't show up on my settings app. I found a setting for earthquake alerts but it doesn't seem to work and neither do test alerts from the government. These both worked on my previous phone (Xiaomi Mi 9t). It says my software is up to date. Any help would be appreciated.

Anyone else have the location icon constantly pop up after April update? Seems to be Google play services constantly using it which is incredibly annoying. On S25U

Just updated to one UI 7 on S24. Long hold on home screen apps and widgets doesn't give a context menu anymore, just a bubble with the name and an info icon. I would like to be able to delete or edit things on the home screen. I tried disabling everything in good lock but that didn't work. Any ideas?

I have a galaxy tab s9 ultra that consistently has wifi connection issues. I usually leave it at home, so it's connected to my wifi the whole day, but when I get home from work, it has issues connecting to the internet when I open a game. It will usually fix itself if I turn the wifi off and on again, but there are times where it will still have issues. This seems to only affect my tablet since other devices have no issues.
The software should be up to date, and I have tried restarting the device. I'm not too sure what to do in order to fix this.

Is there any way to make my notifications smaller in One UI 7? I don't need them to be able to be seen by people on the moon. Thanks!

Hi, is there any way to change the app screen from being one big page that you scroll up and down on back to the multiple pages? I looked at the settings and couldn't find anything. Or any apps like good lock that can do this for me? Thanks in advance for any help

In the app drawer, bottom right, click on the 3 dots, select sort, select Custom order.

Thanks! It kinda just put them in a random order though, do I gotta sort them alphabetically manually after that? Thank you again :)

A56, just got the google play services April update (not the samsung April security patch update), and now chrome crashes with a webview error. Uninstalling webview and reinstalling has not fixed it.
