Hi, I own a UE55F9000, a 55 inch 4K TV from 2013. I had an issue with digital dropout and the last time that occurred I simply removed the cables, sprayed them with contact spray, and that solved the issue. That issue returned though on a different channel.  Again, I used contact spray and the issue was solved, however the Guide feature had vanished.  When I would click on Guide, I would receive a message that it was unavailable and for me to check my Aerial setting ... or something to that effect. I tried resetting, a hard reset, and that had no effect other than wasting my time. Eventually I went to Menu \ Broadcasting \ Aerial and I saw Cable was selected (as it should be).  I changed the setting to Satellite and was prompted further regarding Time (or Clock), Auto or Manual.  I chose Auto and exited the Menu. I now had no channels and so I went back and selected Cable, the correct setting for my situation.  That did the trick.  I'll assume since Guide is Clock \ Time dependant that reselecting Auto for Clock or Time solved the issue though in order to access Time or Clock I first had to change the input from Cable to Satellite (and back again).. At any rate, this worked for me, maybe this will work for others. ... View more

Since the same exact physical location can show different coordinates when adding to Trusted Places, wouldn't it make more sense to allow a slightly larger area to be included in the 'Trusted Places' ?   I would have thought that merely several locations for my home, a modestly sized house, would be sufficient.    I've had around 20 slightly different coordinates for my house but have to keep adding more in order for so called Smart Lock to actually be of any use.    It would be great if you could set a larger area than adding specific individual locations.    Am I not understanding this?    Thanks, Dave Horne ...

I just started having an issue with the S Pen when using Smart Select to extract text.  It extracts the text and I copy that text to Clipboard.   The issue now?  I swipe up to go back one step and the S Pen remains in the state of wanting to extract more text.  This issue only started within the last week.  I use the Smart Select to copy text from Facebook when replying to someone. I reset the phone to default ... Reset Settings.  No change.  I then perfomed a Factory Data Reset ... and that also made no difference. Is this a known issue? ... View more

If I'm in error, my apologies. I just had an interesting thing happen.  My phone was plagued with a pop up ad that would last for 30 seconds and would appear randomly.  As a last ditch effort to remove that annoyance, I reset my phone and it went relatively painlessly using the Samsung Cloud. I did notice later that not all the items in my Secure Folder were automatically backed up.  It seems the last backup to the Samsung Cloud (from the Secure Folder) was sometime last year.  Unless I'm mistaken, it seems we have to manually backup the Secure Folder.  Am I understanding this correctly? My Note 9 has the Android  version 9 and the 1.0 One UI version. Thanks, Dave Horne - The Netherlands ... View more
