u/Androidfon

I have the USA snapdragon version of Note 9. I received a warning notice from Gmail that my Gmail will be cut off unless I update my phone. Of course there will be no further updates of Note 9. I enjoy using my Note 9 as a wifi only bedroom and bathroom phone, alarm clock, etc.

Has any Note 9 owner sought out Google support over any way to continue using Note 9? It isn't possible to root or install alternative roms on American Note 9. Now my Note 9 is a paper weight because I can't risk losing my Gmail account.

Is there a way to allow the screen to rotate to an upside down portrait view so that the charging port is on the top when phone is being used?

Hi. I'm pretty useless mechanically but after 2 great years my Ego lawn mower turns on and the blades spin but self propulsion won't engage. When running I would normally pull up on the motor engage and push the two buttons and off I go. This year no go.

Is there any possible trick that I could be missing? The first year I didn't have the handles pulled up all the way. I pulled them up and presto it worked. They are all the way up this year but no propulsion. I can mow by pushing. All 4 wheels turn freely.

I have a couple of old qi charging stands that I used with S22U but the back of the stand is too high so the lens mountain pushes the back of the s26u away from the stand. The older one charges more slowly but the phone doesn't heat up. The newer 15 amp stand causes the phone to get too hot.

Is there a stand that holds the phone in up portrait position that really fits AND doesn't cause the phone to get too hot? Thanks!

I have a nice case on my s26u however the phone is so top heavy it keeps falling down. I only use portrait view with my kickstand. Many only do landscape view. Can you recommend a case that doesn't fall over in portrait view when I touch it?
