Problem #1: Galaxy S7 messaging app won’t sound notification when receiving SMS from particular number

I’ve had my phone for a few months now. I never had this problem before but whenever my husband, and only my husband’s number texts me. I get the message through the messaging app itself. But it doesn’t make a notification at the top of the screen like it used to or come across a game I’m playing or even make the notification sound. Whenever someone else, anyone else texts me, I don’t have this problem. So I can get up to 10 messages on my phone from my husband sometimes because I have to go in manually to see it. This is very unfair to have this problem with one lonely number that I’ve had in my contacts for years. This has caused quite a few arguments and needs to be fixed. Please help. Thanks. — Nicole

Solution: Hi Nicole. The first thing you want to try is wipe the cache partition. Minor firmware and hardware glitches can be fixed by deleting the system cache. In fact, we technicians always recommend doing it before performing any of the reset procedures.

The cache partition is a repository of system files used by the operating system during app load times. Rather than come up with sets of files to hasten loading times, your Android device “caches” previously created system files in the cache partition so it can access them easily the next time an app is loaded. In an ideal world, files in the cache partition should be refreshed automatically during an app or system update. This doesn’t happen most of the time though. Sometimes, manually wiping the cache partition is necessary in order to refresh it. Because the files themselves are temporary, they can be deleted safely without impacting the operating system or the apps. The system will automatically create a new set of cache files that next time you load your apps.

Turn off your Samsung Galaxy S7.
Press and then hold the Home and Volume UP keys, then press and hold the Power key.
When the Samsung Galaxy S7 shows on the screen, release the Power key but continue holding the Home and Volume Up keys.
When the Android logo shows, you may release both keys and leave the phone be for about 30 to 60 seconds.
Using the Volume Down key, navigate through the options and highlight ‘wipe cache partition.’
Once highlighted, you may press the Power key to select it.
Now highlight the option ‘Yes’ using the Volume Down key and press the Power button to select it.
Wait until your phone is finished doing the Master Reset. Once completed, highlight ‘Reboot system now’ and press the Power key.
The phone will now reboot longer than usual.

If refreshing the system cache won’t do anything, you must wipe the messaging app’s cache and data next. This will force the phone to virtually “re-install” the said app, resetting all notification settings back to default. Here’s how it’s done:

Go to Settings.
Proceed to Applications.
Select Manage Applications.
Tap the All tab.
Look for the messaging app and tap it.
Tap Storage.
From there, you will see the Clear Cache and Clear Data buttons.

Problem #2: Galaxy S7 Edge corrupts SD card

Recently, my Galaxy S7 Edge has been presenting itself with a large variety of problems. It began when my microSD became corrupted. I was receiving a ‘storage not found’ notification from Spotify, and most of the pictures in my Gallery which were on my SD card had appeared broken. Resetting it did nothing. Furthermore, my keyboard sometimes become unresponsive, and ‘TouchWiz Home’ kept crashing so I couldn’t go back to the home menu. Unsure if it was a problem with my device, I shoved the card into my PC, and attempted to repair it. It told me that it was irreparable because it was corrupted, so I thought it was a problem with the card. I replaced the card and the problem seemed to disappear. 3 days later, my photos still sometimes appear corrupt. Music playback sometimes stops abruptly, and then my phone becomes completely unresponsive, not even allowing me to do a force reset. It’s becoming a rather troublesome problem. What should I do about this? — Jayjaystownjo

Solution: Hi Jayjaystownjo. Try wiping the cache partition and observe the phone for a few days. If that won’t correct the erratic behavior of your phone, don’t hesitate to start fresh by wiping the phone clean via factory reset. Here’s how:

Turn off your Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge.
Press and hold the Volume Up, Home and Power keys together.
When the device powers on and displays ‘Power on logo’, release all keys and the Android icon will appear on the screen.
Wait until the Android Recovery Screen appears after about 30 seconds.
Using the Volume Down key, highlight the option, ‘wipe data/factory reset’ and press the Power key to select it.
Press the Volume Down button again until the option ‘Yes — delete all user data’ is highlighted and then press the Power key to select it.
After the reset is complete, highlight ‘Reboot system now’ and hit the Power key to restart the phone.

Once you’ve factory reset the phone, make sure that you also reformat the SD card. It is important that you reformat it using your phone and not any other device.

Problem #3: Galaxy S7 Gmail app reply button not working properly

Hello. My Galaxy S7 is fine except for a little quirk in the GMAIL application. When I need to REPLY to an email I have just read and I click on the small arrow pointing (curving) to the left which is the symbol for making a REPLY, the cursor automatically goes to the END OF MY SIGNATURE BLOCK INSTEAD OF THE AREA JUST BELOW THE EMAIL I AM TRYING TO REPLY TO. Each time I have to redirect the cursor to the proper location before typing a reply. This did not happen when I was using a DROID MINI but in all other respects this Galaxy S7 is a great little smartphone. Thank you for your kind attention. — Will

Solution: Hi Will. We haven’t observed this behavior in any of our devices when replying via Gmail app so it must be isolated to your device. In order to fix it, the first thing that you want to try is reconfigure your Gmail account on the app. This means you need to remove your Gmail account from the said app before setting it up again. If that won’t solve the issue, the next step is to wipe the cache and data of the said app (steps provided above).

There’s a chance that the issue may be due to a bad Android update or operating system so if the two procedures won’t work, don’t hesitate to do a factory reset.

Problem #4: Galaxy S7 can’t be factory reset due to Factory Reset Protection (FRP)

My mother was recently diagnosed with early onset dementia. She now has trouble remembering her password and is locked out of her Gmail account. Her phone is requiring her Gmail account password (not sure why because she doesn’t have a passcode on her phone) to operate the phone. I have tried a factory reset and it still requires the Gmail password. Can I bypass this so I can delete the Gmail app from her phone? All I want on her phone is the ability to text & call. I don’t know which Android version she has
