But restoring(upgrading) to a new 500GB Crucial SSD fails as if it doesn’t see the new SSD ?
Any Ideas ?

In reply to Dennis Jones.

This worked for me on Galaxy S23 Ultra

Settings / Apps (show system apps)

Scroll to down anything listed under “Phone” category. There were quite a few on mine. Clear storage and cache on every one, think the one that worked for me was “Phone Services”

Hello

I can receive call notifications from my son on my Galaxy phone.. with the other justalk adults app I installed on mobile .. my son can only receive calls if he call me and I then ring him back on the amazon hd10 table.

Once he as bootup up the justalk kids app??

I tried all available settings in the amazon tablet and in the justalk apps setups nothing worked.

Hopefully someone have answered for this call and message notifications problem.

In reply to Rob.

Hi Rob, to make it a bit easier, I updated the article to include the full formulas at the end of each step. Take a look. It should be working 100% if you just copy/paste the full formulas.

Thnx,

Steve

In reply to Mark. Hi Mark, I think there is a problem with the type of quotes you're using. If your dates are in A3, this formal will work for you:

=DATEDIF(A3,TODAY(),"Y") & " Years and " & DATEDIF(A3,TODAY(),"YM") & " Months and " & DATEDIF(A3,TODAY(),"MD") & " Days"

Comment on How to Manage Mobile Data On iOS With My Data Manager by Charlie

Charlie — Fri, 22 Sep 2023 12:04:58 +0000

I use My Data Manager on my Android and installed it on my wife’s iPhone. It works OK, but doesn’t seem to sync across devices unless I manually open the app on the iPhone and even then it doesn’t always sync data?

No response from their support.

I don’t want to change the search engine in the silk browser. I don’t use it.

I want to change the search engine in the home page search bar. It seems to be forcing me to use Bing.

Comment on Not Receiving Texts on Android? 7 Fixes by Robin

Robin — Mon, 18 Sep 2023 14:50:56 +0000

None of this fixed my continual problem of the time stamp of a text being when I turn on my phone or take it off airplane mode, not when the text was actually sent.

I put my phone on airplane mode at night and then when I turn it on in the morning, I get a bunch of texts showing the timestamp of when I turn my phone on even though the texts were sent the night before. I do not know how to fix this, and it’s driving me bonkers. Samsung Galaxy S20.

Comment on USB Ports Still Powered in Sleep Mode? Here’s How to Fix It by KB420

KB420 — Mon, 18 Sep 2023 01:03:44 +0000

Not good if you are using an SSD. Hibernate is taking writes away from your SSD. There must be a way to unpower the USB. There is only 1 of the lights that remain on. I have this one strip of RGB, the only way I can turn it off is with a remote. My desk RGB light turns off when my PC goes to sleep. So for my issue, I need to try and figure out why this one RGB strip doesn’t turn off like everything else does when it goes to sleep.

I can’t turn these off. The option is greyed out. Having to dismiss it constantly wastes my time and interrupts my train of thought. Plus it raises my blood pressure. Maybe I can sue for High Blood Pressure.

Comment on Can’t Open Terminal in Ubuntu: How to Fix by László Tóth

László Tóth — Sun, 17 Sep 2023 12:46:32 +0000

Hi Adam,
My gnome-terminal also went wrong. My best estimation is that causing this: I installed Python 3.11 alternatively to 3.10.
While my apt sources list also went wrong so I am not able to install any of gnome-terminal alternatives. ( apt install command is not able to run without error) Please advise what shall I do to overcome the situation?
BR,
L.

Agreed! Thank you for the clear instructions.
Question, is there a way to have this drop down be like a hyperlink to whatever item you click on?
Almost like a Table of contents with hyperlink. Thank you!

One thing you cannot do is activate a Venmo debit card. Have run into this problem twice. There is simply no way to do it.
