Anyone know how to get past the voicemail settings option when setting up Google Voice on Null23?
It gets to the carrier settings and crashes the app every time, even is you choose to skip the settings.
Google voice thinks the Gear is a phone, on a tablet it doesn't ask you any of those questions because
it thinks the device is not voice enabled.
Thanks

Where do you turn off emergency amber alerts?
I've checked in:
Messages > Settings - not found
Notifications > sound alerts (sound) - greyed out
Network connections - more connection settings - not found
Open the messaging app, tap Menu, settings, scroll down to emergency alerts, rap and disable. You won't be able to disable Presidential Alerts though or you may not have that one depending on what country you're in.
EDIT: I see you looked in messages, that is the default Samsung messages you're looking in isn't it? Every Samsung phone I've seen has it in Messages.
I have the G9730 (Hong Kong) variation and live in the U.S. Because I had two SCREAMING LOUD Amber alerts last week, one while sitting in a dentist chair , I looked into this.
Yes, it appears to be buried in the Samsung Messages app and not in Android itself, I guess it's a regional thing. All I can find though in these Settings is something labeled "Roaming emergency alerts." Now, if you go into "Notifications" yes, there -is- a setting for "Emergeny Alerts" (sound), but guess what? It's greyed out!! You can't change it!!
So I've switched off the Roaming setting and also turned off notifications on this app completely. I usually use the Google Messages anyway and there is no setting in there for alerts at all.
So if this setting is only on U.S. builds of the Samsung Messenger app, is there a way to install a version that would have these settings on an international phone? XDA forums seem like they should know. Would I need a different CSC coded firmware? Likewise I only have the "Roaming emergency alerts" option in Messenger, but I'm not roaming so I don't think it affects anything.

Same issue in Canada. I have S10+ dual SIM and no option to disable Amber alerts anywhere...

I've got Intl version of the Note 9 and there is nowhere to turn Amber Alerts OFF. HELP, I don't like the Govt. sending me ANYTHING...
I have an SIM-unlocked SM-G970U in the USA using Verizon. I got the 10 upgrade yesterday and the Amber Alert setting for me is listed under Connections > More connection settings > Wireless Emergency Alerts.

Does turning notifications completely, work?
Just purchased a Samsung Galaxy Tab A (international version) and there is no way to turn off the alerts, can't do it via Messages App, settings (it is grayed out) and don't have the option for wirless emergency alerts under the category of Connections, More Connection settings. That option is not in the list. Anyone make any progress on getting this shut down?
Having the experience in setting a particular ringtone in telegram app for a particular person only so as to differentiate ringtone of incoming messages, including the "allow interruptions" enabled. However, this settings only lasted awhile which I am unsure until when. It will revert back to the default notification sound setting which I had set for the phone, and the "allow interruptions" has also been removed.
Is it due to some settings being over-ridding automatically or is the memory not able to save the settings until I changed it again?
Since upgrading to the S10 i've noticed that Facebook Messenger, Snapchat, etc all use the default notification sound. Is there a setting to use the apps own sounds as opposed to setting it globally? I do see where i can set my own sound in each app, overriding the global system default, but I don't see where to use Facebook Messenger's own chirp, vs whats built into the OS.
It seems like it's done on a per app basis. Goto settings, apps, then select whatever app, then go under notifications where you see all the options for the app. This is all I could find on my S10 plus here.

Thanks for the reply. Yeah, i see that i can override via system settings each individual app, but i don't see "use app default" or whatever, just where i can manually override each app w/ a clip I have on my phone. For example, i don't have the Snapchat "sound" on my phone... i know the app has its own internal sound, but no idea how to set it to use that.
how to disable google play services location?
the default setting is "allow all the time" and does not have an option to change it. thanks
Install Fake GPS, set the selected location and in the developer options select the application to simulate the location.
However, it will not give you anything, because every call to the GSM mast is received in the phone and the approximate location is known.
