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 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....

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....

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...

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

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.

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 🥲....

Hey guys, I recently switched cell providers which updated my phone to Android 12. Prior to this, I had my phone configured so that only calls will vibrate, not notifications. I did this by setting my phone to vibrate and changing the notification vibration pattern to silent. After upgrading, this still works, except in one...

Yes I always have the hibernation set to “always on” so I can always see the clock, but I was carrying my phone in my hand while holding a bunch of other things and apparently randomly smashing the touchscreen, and all these settings options popped up....

I recently got myself a Samsung TV again. I stayed away from Samsung since their TV Always had trouble connecting. Now again years later still the same problem. The Samsung TV says WiFi not available while everything else works flawless. Chromecast works, phone works, other TVs work, PC just this stupid Samsung TV isn’t...

I had the previous model but loaned it to a student, who had it stolen from them....

Now yes, the animations of OneUi 6 suck. They’re even slower than OneUI 5.1 and are not even close to the iPhone. They’re ugly, too. And to be honest if they were interupptable I couldn’t tell. They still drop hella frames....

I’m being forced into this update, and there’s no changelog or info on what’s being updated… Just a vague “system configuration update”… What is this?

I had a glass screen protector and a thin case but wasn’t expecting this to happen. The screen isn’t damaged on the outside which is weird but the display now has 2 horizontal lines and turned green. I can still see but this sucks ass. It’s 300€ to replace which I think is too expensive specially considering I wasn’t...

I’m thinking of using Shizuku to give root access to Automate app. My doubt is will it backfire in some way. I’m trying to automate enabling and disabling of Work Profile based on a schedule which frustratingly is missing on Samsung. I’m trying to run the adb commands “am stop-user -f 10” using privileged user block in...

Turning off this TV really just brings up a black screen. I can for the life of me how to actually turn it off off. It’s mounted so hard to access the power....

Two months ago, I upgraded from my loyal 3 year old friend aka Note 10 Lite to the S22 Ultra (for a low price of 350€ from a trust worthy seller). It’s an upgrade yeah, but apart from the way better camera, long software support, and the slight convenience of wireless charging, I don’t feel like it’s a huge difference....

I rock an S10+ (which is the best phone I’ve ever had, hands down!), and have just discovered that it has FM radio receiver capability. Can anyone recommend a good app for this? I understand I need to use wired headphones for an antenna, which I’m ok with.
