I've had my S22+ for nearly four years, and whilst it still seems to be running perfectly, with no overheating, good battery life, and no discernable lagging, I'm slightly concerned that it's suddenly going to die on me (probably shouldn't have read so many posts on here!), so I'm wondering whether to upgrade.

To those who's phones have bitten the dust, did you get any warning signs that it was on the way out? What are the early symptoms of an imminent failure of some kind?

I have around 155 GB of music and photos, most of which are backed up, but a backup of my music takes around 4-5 hours to transfer to a laptop, then another 4-5 hours to transfer to a new device, which is not a task I take lightly (it was much easier when we had SD cards), so I don't want to change phones unnecessarily.

I've got all of the 2007 Nick Davis remixed box-sets, and like many others, I've got mixed opinions on them. I usually play the DVD-A discs, and I've managed to rip some of them so that I can listen to them on my phone, but I read somewhere that the SACD versions don't suffer quite so much with the loudness brickwalling and hard limiting which ruined many of the DVD-A tracks.

Before I go down the rabbit hole of trying to rip and convert the SACD tracks (which I believe is quite a complex process), can anyone give an opinion as to whether the SACD masters are indeed an improvement on the DVD-As? It's not quite as simple as me just playing them, as I've no longer got anything to play them on.

I've started buying more standard Blurays than 4Ks recently. I have a Sony Bravia A49K TV, which at 48" is the biggest that will fit where it has to go. Having bought a load of 4Ks, I've come to the conclusion that on a TV that size, the difference in picture quality to an upscaled Blu-ray isn't worth the extra money. As a result, I'm buying more Blurays and seeing more films than I would have if I'd spent the extra to get them all on 4K. Anyone else found 4Ks a little underwhelming on a TV this size?

Whenever I used to use the Share option, I got a pop up with people or apps I regularly share with, but over the last two or three days, I'm just getting a blank panel with "No recommended people to share with".

I looked on Google and it said to reset the Cache and Data in Apps > Android System Intelligence, but that's done nothing to help.

The only thing I've done different over the last few days is to enable and use Android Auto, whilst my car satnav was offline, but I can't see how that could have caused this problem.

Any suggestions?
