Before the final release next year, Samsung says it will remove that annoying watermark from the app drawer in One UI 7.

52
 
 

According to the latest leaks, Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S25 series won’t be seeing a price hike in Europe, but that...

53
 
 

The Galaxy S24 series is still heavily discounted from Sasmung, but this is probably the last event before the company...

54
 
 

Samsung started selling officially refurbished Galaxy phones several years ago and has kept up the program in the years since....

55
 
 

Samsung Android 15-based One UI 7 update will allow users to merge the Quick Settings and notifications panel.

56
 
 

Samsung's clearly been listening to its users, as the company finally delivers a vertical drawer for your Android apps in One UI 7.

I have connected my Samsung Q60 to WiFi via WPS. This works fine so far. But when i restart the TV, i have to reconnect every time via WPS again, since the TV doesn't remember the WiFi connection. If it is connected, it works fine so far. If i look at the router, i can see, that it is using always the same MAC address to connect, so this is not the issue.

As per title.

I've avoided updating for months now seeing all the complaints.

Did Samsung resolve the issue?

I have the T55 27inch curve monitor that randomly went to a black screen and will not display anything.

No built-in menu, no pop up saying searching for inputs like HDMI. Nothing.

I was playing "For the King 2", and my monitor just goes dark. My pc was still running the game and I could hear others in Discord just fine.

Right now i am unsure of what to do. I have tried the following:

  • Unplug monitor for 30+ seconds
  • Checked HDMI cable
  • Held the Jog switch for 1 minute
  • Plugged monitor into the wall
  • Tried using the directional functions on jog switch (just cause screen to flicker on and off but nothing is displayed.
  • Restarting computer (which obviously did nothing).

Am at a loss right now. Had this monitor for about 3 years so I think the warranty is gone. What do I do if it doesn't start working in its own again?

Edit: Imgur post showing the issue

Edit 2: I decided to contact Best Buy and see about trade-ins, and discovered I bought the 4 year extended warranty!! So i got it exchanged for a "different" model... Which turned out to be the exact same thing just called something else.

I didn't know where else to ask, but my phone seems to default to the AOSP default "Files" app and I do not use Samsung's version. I want to remove it via ADB, but I fear data loss/file deletion. I have come here as a last resort as I can find this nowhere online.

I have a Samsung watch 6. The main reason I bought it is for running so I can log strava with HR monitoring and listen to podcasts. Well after a few runs logged, the HR monitor on the watch is really quite terrible. Yes I know all about the watch positioning on the wrist. It has massive gaps in HR logging and just blinks while I'm in cool down. What I'd really like to do is hook the watch up with a chest strap HR monitor, but I can't figure out how to do that.

So I'm hoping for 2 pieces of advice: -any hot tips for using the HR monitoring. -how to hook up a Bluetooth chest strap HR monitor

Thanks!

I made the mistake of updating to 6.1 and now my fingerprint scanner doesn't work. I've done a full factory reset of my device and still doesn't work. I'm hoping the May 2024 update fixes it whenever it comes out.

Otherwise Samsung support says I've to send it for repair! Which didn't make sense if it's a software issue

I have Samsung Tab 9 Ultra and S23. I'm taking notes on tablet and I can easily search my handwritten notes. It's working great. But S23 can't find or search anything about OCR. Same account, same notes, latest updates etc.. I guess Samsung won't even try to search via OCR if the device does not have S Pen capability.

Any workaround or alternative? Because this is a critical workflow for me. I'm taking notes and I have to find it whenever I need without tablet.

I recently purchased a Samsung S90C. Been loving the TV, but one of the things I've had an issue with is the large tutorial buttons at the top of the Gaming tab in the hub. I didn't need the tutorials to begin with, and I watched them all anyway, hoping that they would go away after being watched. That did not change anything.

This is mostly annoying because when I navigate to that tab it defaults to being on that row of the UI, but I will never intentionally select any of those items again. If I could just get rid of that row, then it may default to the next row down which is the row I actually care about on that screen.

Hi all, just had this happen once (and it took a nice photo so I'm glad), but my settings are flash off...

Took a wide angle selfie, and it lit up a white/amber circle on the screen, and that actually provided just enough light without washing out the foreground.

Can't seem to replicate it. Can't find any other references online except this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/oneui/comments/127ae79/part_of_samsungs_implementation_of_night_mode_on/

Any ideas when it triggers? Would actually like to use it instead of the default front facing flash.

So I just noticed that half of the apps which supports material you are no longer using the selected color pallets and defaulting the app theme to blue color. Can you guys confirm this. For me none of the google app showing the correct color.

I had made Junglecat controller cases for my galaxy fold but just got a S23 Ultra and decided to make another for this phone.

I love how perfectly the size of the controllers matches the phone width. It makes it look like one cohesive device!

Speakers, USB and pen are all accessible still.

I am willing to share the STL for free to anyone interested, but if you want to leave me a 'tip' you can buy the file from my store for five bucks. Also selling printed cases for those without a printer!

Anyone have experience with trade-in for Samsung? I have a tab s7 and it looks pretty much perfect except around the port because I don't look where I plug 🥲.

Any ideas if this would disqualify the trade in, if there's any way to polish it back up, or how people usually prevent this in the first place?

Are you cool? Sure, but are you cool enough to have listened to the underground extended version of Over the Horizon by @samsung !? - a
