Considering checking the APN (Access Point Name) settings on your X23 -- they need to match what the carrier specifies currently. I am with Koodo (Telus) in the Greater Toronto Area, using an X23, and it works fine. (Koodo did issue an APN change a little while back, so users had to ensure the new s...

Good day, Does anyone have experience with installing and using a second SIM card into your Volla Phone, particularly the X23? My workplace is taking back their company-issued smartphones, and offering a subsidy for a Bring Your Own Device program. I'm trying to figure out: a) if dual SIM functional...

Good day, I'm writing to the community to see if anyone has a 'bricked' (original) VollaPhone (i.e. Gigaset GS290 handset) that they would like to get rid of & donate? I have a badly cracked screen, which can no longer be replaced anywhere in North America or Europe, and is not working consisten...

Well, it looks like there's no one in Canada that does screen replacements for VollaPhones (or more specifically in my case, the Gigaset GS290). I did find a mobile service provider in Oshawa who said they could do it, provided I obtain the actual replacement screen myself and bring it to them. That...

Good day, I'm writing to ask if anyone has tried to get their screen replaced (by a Canadian service provider), on an original VollaPhone, after being cracked? I have a small crack in mine (see photos), but would rather not wait until it becomes a bigger issue. I was not able to find replacement scr...

Good day all, I wanted to update everyone regarding my experience with the factory-spec'd glass screen protector for the (original) VollaPhone. While I had it on, I found it would accumulate prints / finger oils very easily, and to clean it, the best option was normal optical glass cleaner. Other cl...

Good day, Following up on my post from January 22, 2023, I found that BitDefender yet again seemed to encounter functionality issues shortly after installation, but this time it seemed to suggest that activation of a program called 'microG Services Core' was needed, and when engaged, it seemed to he...

Good day, Following up on my earlier post, I'm pleased to report that BitDefender Mobile Security (version 3.3.195.2164) can now be downloaded successfully (from the Aurora store) onto the VollaPhone, and appears to work just fine. This follows up on recently installing a VollaOS 11.1 update (dated ...

Good day, I'm writing to the community to ask if anyone has a malware protection program, either free or paid service, that is running successfully on their VollaPhone? All the anti-malware programs that I can find on the Aurora Store indicated Google Play as a 'Dependency' (whatever that means) - e...
