samsung account
session expired
there is no samsung account registered on this phone
when you click on it , it opens page showing my gmail address , password box empty , then a box saying to protect your account and to continue using this service you need to sign in again and confirm your password
I do not need (?) or want a samsung account0 -
I have registered with the Samsung store, took a few minutes browsing it and have never used it since. I doubt its even registered on my S6.
Just checked its reading my gmail id from the phone but not logged in, thats not even the email i signed up with originally.
Normally create a new gmail with each new phone, B!!!, B!!! etc.Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0 -
ok , bit one my phone how can something that is not there be expiring
as per my first post , is there a service i can turn off0 -
Try...
Settings - Cloud and Accounts - Accounts - Tap 3 dots at top - Disable Auto Sync (Toggle Off). Restart phone...
That will turn all Accounts off.
If you just want to disable the Samsung account...
At Accounts - Tap on the Account name - Tap on Backup Settings - Toggle Auto Backup off...
Failing that, try a factory reset....Drinking Rum before 10am makes you

I have removed , deleted correctly the samsung account , " do you wish to delete this account" YES , done
there is no account , so what part or order or programme is looking for an account at 6am every morning and annoying me (waking me up) when it cant find one
yes its a s6 , its supposed to be a smart phone , its crap , its about as smart as the cats bowl of milk
WHAT programme or setting is telling it to look at doing things0 -
