    I had this problem with my old phone…a One Plus 9. One Plus used to be so good now it’s full of bloatware and bugs. Their suggested fix was factory resetting the phone to factory due to them limiting what files could be checked.

      Yeah, my OP9 was my third OnePlus phone and my last one. I installed a security update that made the cell radio completely non-functional and had to factory reset it. I use my phone for 2FA to get into my work computer, so this was simply unacceptable.

      I realized I wasn’t doing enough with my phone to warrant flagship prices and ended up switching to a Pixel 6a I got on the cheap. Other than having to add wireless charging with an accessory, I haven’t looked back.

        I switched to the Pixel 8. It’s okay, good camera but a little buggy. Last phone I REALLY liked was the LG G5 that had a slide-out battery. I think it was t-mobile(?) had a bonus where they gave you a free extra battery and charger for that battery. I could go for a couple days at it’s peak without a charger, just a battery swap
