Go to settings, connections, more connections and then click on Private DNS, enter "dns.adguard.com" there.
If that does not work well enough for you, you can download AdGuard itself, it can block more ads (not only on DNS level) https://adguard.com/en/welcome.html

The front part comes with two options: whether or not you want to use the screen protector, or your own.
As far as I know there isn't an in-built way to block by area code. You could use the Mr. Number app to do it though.
I'd assume you want one of those interview mic that clips onto their shirt, so first you need an audio spliter that separates the input to microphone and headphone, and plug it into the microphone one. For the actual microphone, anything can work to be honest, unless you want studio quality then the price can go up to 200, otherwise a 20 dollar one should do the job too. Here's one that's in-between that price range https://www.amazon.com/Rode-smartLav-Lavalier-Microphone-Smartphones/dp/B00EO4A7L0/ref=pd_lpo_267_t_0/147-2000544-5077116?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B00EO4A7L0&pd_rd_r=f0f19492-8938-485d-aea2-62e76289ca4f&pd_rd_w=uAIJd&pd_rd_wg=1Jtaz&a...
Install this disk usage app. It helped me a lot. It scans the storage and shows exactly what folder is using how much storage and what files are there.
A71 may get Android update within few months. According to CheckFirm One UI 5 test firmware is found and usually the update will be out within two months of test firmware appearing in this app from my experience (Happened with android 11 and android 12).
i think Android designed to allow apps to do that.
try mute the app and use TTS instead, can replace reading the app name with any words
i like this TTS app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.codococo.byvoice3
https://apkpure.com/camera-x-professional-dslr-photography/com.camerax.camera. spend the 3 bucks or whatever to get rid of ads and it's almost as good as stock app with missing some of the stuff I like. Pano, wide lens, but the ability to shoot in raw is almost worth it
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jamworks.alwaysondisplay&hl=en&gl=US aodnotify should be what you are looking for. some of the features are paywalled, but I found it useful at times if you take the time to configure it
No prob! 👍
If you want a completely clear case, OtterBox makes one, but they are $36.
OtterBox SYMMETRY CLEAR SERIES Case for Samsung Galaxy A71 5G (ONLY 5G Version, NOT 4G Compatibile) - CLEAR https://www.amazon.com/dp/B089VRK3S6/ref=cm_sw_r_sm_apa_i_ff39FbCVEVGBV
I tried that one first, but ultimately returned it. I found that if the case is completely clear, the part that's on the front (the part that frames the screen) stands out too much. I found it quite distracting.
Also, it doesn't come with a built-in screen protector like the one I recommended.
I just purchased the PowerDeWise lavalier mic and it works great. It even works with the default camera app. It is said to be the best mic for under $200. https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B01AG56HYQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_Hc.4FbRCP0J8P?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
This is the tempered glass screen protector I use. You need to remove your fingerprint before you put it on, then add a new one when you've applied it and it works just fine without needing to press down hard at all.
I paired it with the Spigen slim armour case (https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0832LNWFH/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_kCm3FbN84XPWD?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1) which fits perfectly and makes the phone thick enough to hold comfortably but not chunky enough to look inelegant.
I actually put a phone ring on the back of it because I have tiny hands and can't use my phone properly without the extra support! It's a cheap one from B&M in the UK and sticks in just fine :)
I use these, bought in the UK! They go on nicely, though the glue for the edges has a funny learning curve. I actually didn't use it on the second one because my Spigen case obscures the little gaps! :)
I need a wallet case because I can't be bothered to carry a separate wallet anymore. One of those things where once you experience freedom, you never go back. Not many choices as vCommute doesn't make an A71 case like they do for many other phones. So I ended up with this one...

It's more lip than I like but functionally great so far. Also a low profile magnet ring on the back for my vent magnet in the car.
Bought this tempered glass but haven't put it on yet as I'm still testing the phone out prior to sending my trade-in. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08BZTW62L/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Got a Spigen clear case - seems fine, only had the phone a couple of weeks now. Case
Also have a tempered glass screen protector. Finger print thing seems fine (it's a little temperamental but I think that's because my fingerprints are mullered with really dry skin). I was a little worried it might peel up around the edges with the case, but it's seems OK as well. it's slightly smaller than the screen but they are close but no problems.
You can turn the finger print sensor up on the phone to account for the protector.
I forget where I got my screen protector (tempered glass), but it works fine with the fingerprint sensor. I just had to set up my fingerprints again after I put the screen protector on. But no unusual problems after that.
I got my case off Amazon, and I love it. It's pretty minimal, which I like, especially since the phone is already massive.
Can anyone test this for me? Download this app to test the light sensor level https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.doggoapps.luxlight
And tell me if it constantly flickers from different levels like mine and doesn't just stay on the same level.
try this full battery charge alarm so you don't overcharge your phone. You can also tweak the settings and set a percentage threshold like if you want it to alarm at 90%. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=apps.syrupy.fullbatterychargealarm
I also just got it from TMO and went with this case.
It's no Otterbox but it is very similar to the Spigen I had on my S8 and so far I like it. Raised lips front and back, fits well, looks good.
since you're in the UK, you will have a different set of vendors to buy from.
I found that this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07SKQCCGV/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_btf_t1_dk5rFbWC7B029
appears to work well with 25W Samsung super fast. It needs PPS specifically on top of power delivery 3.0, and this looks like the only one. The manufacturer, manenin also has a 73w car charger that enables 45w Samsung and pd fast charging.
I got this Spigen one. Kinda shit but does the job. Better than the clear one as it protects the camera lenses. Also has a more of a grippy feel.
