Has Anyone Else Received Android 13 Update and your Phone is messed up?
I received the Android 13 update back in mid to late October. It has messed up several things on the Samsung S22+ phone. For one, I no longer have the ability to set my phone to auto reboot each day. The settings no longer has the selection to set that parameter. Also, my screen used to light up when I got a new message, that no longer works and no means to fix.
Is there going to be updates to correct these issues? I am NOT happy I had that piece of garbage pushed to my phone when it clearly isn't ready and still has bugs.
New versions of Android can bring changes to the features available. Personally, Android 12 and Android 13 forcing selecting a default browser was pretty annoying for me because I use different browsers for different things. Thankfully, someone created an app in the PlayStore to set as a browser that pops up the choice.
If the setting(s) you are looking for are no longer there. Try searching for them in case Samsung put in some new stupid place. If nothing comes up, it is possible those are no longer available for the time being. Whether they were just removed or were bugged and temporarily disabled. Only time will tell. Make sure you send feedback to Samsung though expressing your unhappiness that these features aren't currently available.
Auto reboot by time has been removed. You will not find it. It does it automatically when on the charger at night every so often. Alarms set should still go off and you need to enter your pass just like before when you wake up.
Since installing Android 13 my battery is draining with little to no usage and the phone constantly freezes and restarts. Tmobile tech only suggested to reset phone to manufacturers setting. Never had any issue with any of my Samsung phones before or updates. Extremely upsetting. I have the Note 20. Tmobile customer since 2008.
2 Galaxy S21 phones: Both Samsung factory texting app, and another note/list app auto scrolls away from curser as you are trying to text or type!
Very annoying, especially when text is long and auto scroll will move to the opposite position of the text away from the curser.
If you start typing again, page will move back so the curser is at the top of what you can see. You have to manually scroll down to see what you just typed above the curser.
Also Can’t clear T-Mobile Vis Voice-mail notifications, I used to clear cashe/data of “Phone services” app, Now that is grayed-out, no way to fix that problem either!
With Android 12, My wife and I had NO problems at all!!!
T-Mobile/Samsung,
Please Fix!!!
