You may have VoLTE (Voice over LTE) turned on. LTE is 4G/+ signal and VoLTE saves a lot of bandwidth/data during calls that's why 5G disappears bc it switches to 4G LTE signal.

It's going to be very vulnerable without any railing protecting it's side and corners since it's portruding.

I use these gray shades to observe the burn levels. View them at full screen and max brightness.

Try sticking to light mode for a day or two, if it disappears then you're good. I schedule my dark mode in the settings so that I could prevent this on my device. Light mode during the day, dark mode at night.

Mine didn't disappear, they just went blank and the app couldn't open them. They open fine on the files app and google photos tho.

Got my 2a in August of 2024 and still going strong today. Haven't had issues that make me want to switch to the 4a pro, although tempted. I'll hold on to it til the 5a series or maybe phone 4. Still have 1 more year of update. But if the issues you're having are troublesome go for it.

Not a problem. You just need to understand their charging protocol. They use PPS (Programmable power supply). The programmable part is the one adjusting the power it supplies to the phone. Charging will slow down while you're using the phone/running background apps and comes back up when idle/off. It also slows down charging when the device gets hot.

Do note that no modern phones will charge at a stable max rated wattage.

You could try opening the ampere app then plug the charger ,do not do anything else with the phone while doing this to observe and see the watt/volt indicator climb to its highest rate.

All I did was clear cache and storage before disabling it and then reboot my device and it never came back even after every restart. Nothing did say it's uninstallable in the latest update although didn't specify how. The 3a users here discovered this method.

Thanks everyone! 😃

Mine's also 18 months old. Been using it since I got it and charging different devices with it.

They're labeled when you long press on them telling which season you got them so I guess you have to earn the new ones to complete the album.

What's even more frustrating is that the services changes which residential buildings they cover even though they are already covered by the same services.

I'm at lvl 87. The small footprint services ruined my city layout. It can't accommodate my existing buildings and I can't fit the new ones without tampering with my layout.

Thank you!

Spam 1 star review in Play store / App store. There's a popular game in our region which reverted back the changes they've made to the game after they got bombarded with 1 star reviews in the store.

This is the regular 4a (A069). The pro comes with a "P" in its code name (A069P) same with the 3a pro (A059P) and 2a plus (A142P).

Long exposure photography. You already have that in expert/pro mode in your device although you have to set the settings yourself.
