Hello.
I just got the s9 plus. So far so good.
But
I got my old phone the s6 edge.
Now on the old phone I have all my accounts of Google connected one of which I don't remember the password. Then Facebook and all other apps with access.
Is there a mode to transfer all the access datas from the old to the. New one? So that I don't have to re-enter all passwords and accounts?
But the most problematic will be watsup. Because when I got the phone I had an old phone number wich doesn't exist anymore.
Now the new. Phone has a new number. Is it possible in any way to continue to use that number with the new phone without having to register the new number?
I mean going to files and copy them to the new phone?
Thanks for any help.

Use Smartswitch
Hmmm
Maybe you did not understand the problem.
Smartswitch doesn't copy the passwords and the settings. Of an app.

Your passwords are stored either on your google account or on your samsung account

As for whatsapp, i don't think you'll be able to use your old number, because you need to register your number when you launch whatsapp for the first time
But there are the app settings and accounts stored somewhere on the phone. If I copy that doesn't it work?

No, that wouldn't work. You need to find out the password for your google account somehow, because everything is stored there.
So. When i chance The Phone i Will have to reinstall alla The apps from scratch and have a new number. That means I will have to contact all my contacts and tell them my new account and re register in all the group's I was registered to.
That means looking work of two years.
This is really a shame.
I hate this things.

well, maybe here you'll find something useful
but why doesn't the old phone number exist anymore?
When I bought the phone s6 Edge I had a number which I registered in wassup. Then I went to live in other country and then in Spain. I'm from Italy.
So I changed 3 times the phone number but never changed it in wassup. And it always worked well. Everybody knew my wassup number and all was fine.
But now I had to change the phone because I wanted the new s9+
But my first number isn't active anymore. So I don't even have the chance to get that number for the otp.
And as I use wassup for work it would be very bad having to tell everyone that I changed the number.

The link you gave me doesn't really help. Because it says how to use a fake number to register. But I have to use my old number to register. Isn't there a mode to simulate or virtualize a cellular phone number? Because I know one for the home phone but not for mobile phones.
I need to be able to get the otp sms to the same phone number as I got when I bought the phone.

Then check this out
You might want to get an account with Lastpass before you sync your accounts to your S9. It syncs all the passwords that you have and you only need to use 1 primary password for everything.
As for whatsapp, try inserting your old sim from S6 to your S9 then walk through the normal whatsapp process on your new phone.

My phone has problem between sms and phone caller/receiver display after flashing ownhere rom from http://bbs.gfan.com/android-3001188-1-1.html
For example, I have a friend called Apple, her number is 91234567.
1. for incoming call from Apple, my phone can display "Apple" is calling. However,
2. for incoming SMS from Apple, my phone only displays as "+85291234567" instead of "Apple". (Mobile service operator always add country code for incoming SMS which is normal.)
If I edit Apple's contact to +85291234567, the problem reversed:
1. for incoming call, the phone displays as "91234567" instead of "Apple"
2. for incoming SMS, the phone displays as "Apple".
What can I do? I don't have such problem when I am using stock rom. Thanks!
can anyone help? Thanks!

the behaviour of phone dialer log is same as phone caller display, it shows "91234567" without +852. So that it displays as "Apple", not "+85291234567".
Do you have separate contact lists enabled from the contacts app?
Ie. Maybe contacts saved to phone memory are with +xxxxxxx and those saved to google account are as "apple" and no "+" ?.... Or similar

nope, all contacts are saved to my google account.
Still, Might be worth double checking though,..... contacts / menu / more / display options, and ensure only Google is checked. Ensure any Sim, phone, exchange is unchecked.
Sorry can't think of anything else right now, will post back if do.

I am very sure it is not due to duplicated contact on phone/SIM/Google and I have already set it only display google contact. I don't have such problem in stock rom. My stock ROM is a Hong Kong rom, and I meet such problem after I flash ownhere rom which is from mainland China. The contact itself doesn't have problem. it is the phone recognizes the number with/without country as the different contacts.
Thanks!
I have a problem, if I turn off the display without leaving the email app, the arrival of a new message, the phone does not notify the arrival, does not emit sound doesn't vibrate, the led not ... And I see a new mail only when unlocking the screen. However, if the app is in background or is closed notifications work fine
What rom (PDA/CSC) are you using?
Here is operating normally with the brazilian rom UBALE6.
You are right, if you have the mail app opened you won't have a new notification

Hi all,
I was wondering if you guys have the same problem as me, or if you know a solution for my problem.
I want to use google messenger, however when I send a text to somebody and they respond, GM opens a new thread.. As a consequence, all my conversations are in are going in in multiple threads..
edit: or if somebody knows how to turn off the encrypted messaging of Signal/Textsecure.. would be a help too.
edit2: found it on the Signal website.. This can be closed/deleted.

Hi Mojar,
Haven't actually fixed it yet. I do know why it's working this way.
It has to do with the number. If it includes the country code, it will appear in the same thread. If the number does not contain the country code, your recipient will receive the text, however the reply number will include the country code and therefore the messenger sees this as a different contact, I guess.
Hope this is clear enough [emoji4] let me know if you find an easy fix. I did find an app in the playstore called "add country code", but haven't tried it yet.

Hello,
Thanks for the response. I tried using the app you mentioned but it seems to complicated to use. So I'll just deal with the multiple threads. Maybe an update may fix it.
Other option would be to use another messaging app like WhatsApp or similar.
Update: Disabled Google messenger and I am now using textra app in the play store. Group messages works great and looks much better.
Hi,
I am facing the same issue there.
The fact is that I already checked for different country code numbers, but it does not seem to be the problem as I have the issue with the exact same number.
Messenger and Go SMS keep creating a new thread.
Textra is working fine, but I don't like it.
Same with the new OTA (2.1.3. Build 23/11/2015) ?
Same thing with 2.1.3, yes.
It's an oxygen thing because no other roms have this issue. I actually like messenger but don't use it with my oneplus phones because of this. I use Textra.
I love everything about this watch and overall very happy.
However, there is one feature I've never been able to get working and have tried allowing access for the watch to my contacts.
I never see the caller's name on my watch screen, I do see the phone number, but no name attached.
How do I get this fixed??

How did you allow contacts access to the watch. In my case it is à permission granted to amazfit app and I can see the names on incomings calls.

Sometime is shown but mostly, don't!
I read in some places that should put country code in contact numbers but even thus is randomly!

Okay I'm giving this caller name thing another go.
Can anyone explain this?
When someone tries to call my number, the watch is showing the phone number with Chinese characters under the number (I can't read Chinese but I'm wondering if it's the caller name) - why is this Chinese as everything else is in English.
When the call has stopped, the notification on my watch shows the name of the caller.
Has anyone found this and what could be the cause?
In my case I had a problem with area code.
Once you edit the contact number in your phone book to exactly match the number you're getting displayed on your watch it should display the name.
Fore example, instead "(+xxx xx) xxx xx xx" I used "(xxx) xxx xx xx" and it worked
Stratos geting unknown incoming call notification - how to fix
Hi
I am getting Stratos geting unknown incoming call notification - what need to be done to fix it
I use to get only number with no name no its only unknown number
thanks - Ilan
So I just moved devices (still a rooted Google Pixel 3a XL but new one is on Android 12). Everything works well, I got the universal safetynet module working in Magisk, got mostly everything moved over EXCEPT for WhatsApp.
I originally registered WhatsApp with my Google Voice number and it's been working great. However upon getting the new device, I can't "register" WhatsApp with the number I've been using for years. I googled and basically WA has now forbidden using GV as the registered number. I don't want to have to tell all my contacts about my new number, create a new WA account, etc. I searched within XDA and there are a lot of results for "WhatsApp Google Voice" but nothing relevant to this problem.
So I'm wondering if the fine folks at XDA have a working solution. My first idea was to somehow copy all the configs for WA from the old phone to the new one, but I'm interested in anything that works.
It may be also the case that the halcyon days are over and I'll have to bite the bullet and make a new WA profile in any case, in which case I just need to know for sure that this is the case.
Thanks!
