RAM+ was originally designed for the mid-range devices. Then Samsung decided they should push it to other devices, like the higher end, which do NOT need it. For those devices, it's mostly a marketing thing. It's no different than virtual RAM on a desktop or laptop. We've been running Linux on our desktops and laptops, which have plenty of RAM, without V-RAM , with no side effects. Our S22's and S21's don't need RAM+ There are countless articles out there suggesting how to disable it on the upper end devices.

Roast and Bake are really the same ... it's mostly about temperature ... Bake for up to 350f or so ... Roast for 400f and beyond Broil is associated with , usually, 500f + , and only heats the upper elements ... Bake and Broil use the the upper and lower elements

Dex is really the wrong app to use for a backup... (quote) plug the USB end into your computer and the other end to your computer (end quite) One end of the cable needs to be plugged into the phone 😀

You can use the Smart Switch app to backup your phone And if you're computer savvy, you can also do a raw copy of the phone's content, which we do on our Linux desktops and laptops I think the largest capacity Sammy offers is 512 But we prefer SanDisk, and they offer a 1gb card.

We software engineers call that the "bit bucket" or "black hole". It's a device file (Unix oriented operating systems) that discards data written to it. The write is reported as success. It's basically used for disposing of unwanted output data of a process Ignore it

Okay ... unplug the TV from the power source for five minutes ... I'm not referring to powering it off with the remote ... I mean unplug the TV from the a/c outlet Let it sit for 5 minutes ... plug it back in ... try again

TV providers are constantly updating channels and line ups If it got removed, it's probably because the channel is not popular

Composition of #2 is off... all the branches hanging in the upper 3rd make it "busy" ... also, the focal point is on the one "three trunk" tree, not the trail - kinda unclear what we're hoping to convey ... If the perspective was more oriented on the trail and camera was situated beyond that tree (to not show it), it would be fine The top photo is better, except for the fence ... if the fence wasn't there, you'd probably feel more like you're in the country (or off the beaten path)

It's a dexterity thing ... both buttons need to be pushed at exactly the same moment and released. There's also a "Palm swipe" option in the settings, whereby you slide the edge of your hand across the screen The other option is to speak the option with Bixby or Assistant

"Several years ago" ... I'm shocked they even offered anything after "several years" We had a similar ice over issue with another brand of fridge ... I bought the evap fan on Amazon for $50 ... took me 30 minutes to replace it ... works great

Okay ... hmm. personally haven't seen where the Smart Switch backup "hangs". BTW, if the backup hangs at "at 9% for 2+ hours", it's time to cancel the backup.... AAMOF, I'd cancel it at, say 15-20 of hang time. So back to the problem. I'll take a couple of wild guesses a) there's some very strange text in a filename, and S.S. is having an issue with it b) there are some extraordinarily large attachments associated with one or more text messages. c) there's some oddball file corruption and Smart Switch can't deal with it I back up our 2 S21'S and 2 S22s once a month and each don't take over 20-30 minutes (I don't actually time it) I backup using two methods ... one is via Smart Switch ... the other I connect phone using USB to a Linux desktop and do a raw copy. So the next question would be "have you checked the Smart Switch logs to see if an error shows up"??? (if it's hanging, it should show up in the logs what it's having an issue with)

You state "Messages" ... are you referring to all the text message conversations ? Or an app by that name? Keep in mind there's Google Messages and Samsung Messages
