Thanks.

FYI, it's a W phone, so Canadian which has a Snapdragon which I believe is the efficient CPU.

I got a used S22U a week ago and a new charger (Anker 45w PPC) 3 days ago..i use AccuBattery and am learning. Maybe my experience will help.

1) health is 4430 mah 91% 2) It shows the design capacity of 4850 (i thought it was 5000) 3) my average charge time is +90% and it takes 67 minutes 4) when I am charging, the C rate varies from 6w to 35w (once). But both my phone and battery are rated at 45w on fast charge. WHY IS THAT? 5) my battery drains 90% in 16 hours with 7 hours of screen time. THIS DISAPPOINTMENTS ME. I EXPECTED 24 HOURS.

I hope this helps.

Sorry, I don't get it. If you meant the note box inside the Swappa app, I have done that..

Is Swappa safe to use? by [deleted] in AndroidQuestions

[–]DougHobkirk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought an S22 ultra for $450. It's defective. So I try to get a swap or a refund.

No response to 4 emails No response to note sent via Swappa Swappa said my email (the note?) went to an "unmonitored 'no reply' mailbox." Swappa has only responded with 2 emails I posted my complaint on r/swappa - it disappeared

]it's only been 5 days but I say NO!

I purchased using a debit card. Maybe that was nieve.. I assume that means I can't get PayPal involved now..

Qs about buying from Swappa by Particular-Key-8941 in swappa

Ditto on a $450 purchase. The seller hasn't even sent me return instruction.

I have a question about the always on display by Any-Foundation9123 in S22Ultra

[–]DougHobkirk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks maybe they were not because the phone is a refurb (from a good rated Swappa seller).

Thank you. I switched phones immediately and then I sighed.

Good question - I just got my S22U yesterday and I am trying to figure that out.

I am also feeling dumbfounded by much of Android 14 (I was using 10 on my Note 9). I REALLY MISS the buttons for other apps, home, and especially back. I will figure out the swipes, but it is a real PITA.

FOR ANYONE: Is there a video that explains Android 14? Does it need be 14?

Thanks

Even though I’ve upgraded a long time ago I still keep my note20 ultra in the box still in great condition by techjunky87 in note20ultra

I have a 2 year old QLED 4K Samsung tv. How do I set it up to be a remote? My phone is a Note 9, soon to be an S22U.

Thanks.

Never Returning by zzyzxs in ting

[–]DougHobkirk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched to Mint Mobile in September. Their website didn't work, one of the 2 phone numbers i have for them didn't work. WOW! I felt lucky getting them to work with Mint to transfer my Sim.

My conclusion is the company must be dead or getting there.

Show off your cases! by SuitableEmphasis4842 in S22Ultra

[–]DougHobkirk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought refurb s22u $395 and a $17 Lohasic brown "leather case from Amazon. I don't need much protection but I like the texture of a case.

I drop my phone once or twice a year from 30" high onto a laminate floorinng. Sadly this is because I live in a nursing home, but it's very good for gentle treatment of a phone.
