Think my phone has been hacked. I want to do a full factory reset. I did a google drive back up and a samsung cloud backup. Is that enough to make sure everything will be reloaded onto my phone after the reset? How do I load everything back on after the reset? Will it go automatically after i sign in?
What makes you think it was hacked?
There can be files on your device not backed up such as downloads and app data etc.

So I did the full reset. Before I did my whatsapp did a full backup but now that I restored it, it's only giving me from chats from 2 weeks ago. My texts also didn't restore even tho I selected yes when it asked me. Any solutions?
Thanks

When you restored your WhatsApp what date did it say it's from?

I'd assume your backup didn't complete properly..

My T-Mobile S22U which I have had for over a year stated acting up about two weeks ago and stated dropping call and not maintaining a data connection even when right across the street from a tower. I already reset network settings restarted the phone etc. Nothing seems to be helping anyone have any ideas?

On my one plus n30 there is a setting called ram expansion which supposedly uses the extra storage space as ram, does this actually work & is there any reason to/not to use this feature?

If your pressed for storage you may not want to use it.

my question was mainly if your phones regular storage would work properly as ram, and if it using it as ram would be harmful towards it?

It's essentially really slow ram and is used for tasks such as keeping lots of apps open at once which doesn't require constant read and writes. I don't believe there's any concern against using it.

Is the 24/6 music video device available for purchase for approx $150 in simple terms an android with just the 24/6 app.

If I have a phone and go to TAG to just permit this one app(24/6 music) will I likely be successful?

anybody tried just putting this 24/6 app on their phone and thereby not needing to purchase the 24/6 device ?

Yes that's fine and so is your previous post.
We have a filtered iPhone and 1 of the apps is 24.6

Whether you have their device or your own, you still need a monthly subscription

i see thanks
but i guess i want to know to i loose out by going this route in terms of internet safety.  I am looking (through TAG) to make this the ONLY app forever on the phone so no one can access anything in the future

Friend reset the passcode on her Samsung s20 fe, then forgot it. Is there any way to either reset it/bypass it or back up the data before doing a factory reset? Samsung find my mobile didn't work for her
