yeah i made sure to redownload it to be sure, and im positive my bank does, i had all the same cards on samsung pay on my g965U US model working perfect.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] varcor:
You stated the app wouldn't load with your Verizon SIM in slot 1. I don't see how any SIM or Slot # is relevant to accessing or downloading the Samsung Pay app. I would try the following.

1 Uninstall Samsung Pay

2 Remove SIM cards

3 Connect via Wifi

4 Download Samsung Pay via Wifi

5 Reinstall app

I just reinstalled the app with no glitches. I uninstalled it a few months back because I found Debit Card transactions are less hassle than NFC transactions. To me the only situation where NFC makes sense is if I wasn't carrying a Debit Card, which isn't very often. Hope this works for you!

I'm guessing your device has the Exynos Chipset. Mine is the Hong Kong variant with Snapdragon. If that's the case you're not alone, I've read other posts where Exynos and Samsung Pay have compatibility issues.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Virgo_Guy:
Get the Snapdragon. S9/S9+ exynos is not battery friendly , has many reports of heating and performance issues . Just google it out.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Shipoftheline:
Always found the Exynos to be faster, not get as hot and had better battery life
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] force70:
Although there seems to be enough reports of exynos problems I have no such issues with my exynos, it's working perfectly fine and battery life is on a par with my pixel 2 XL.

And if anyone has to buy a snap just be sure to get the HK or latin America version. The US and CAN ones all have locked bootloaders...although really this should be common knowledge by now lol

I found better batterylife in my pixel 2 xl than the gs9 plus exynos.

I would suggest the OP for the HK & LA snapdragon for sure for open-ness but again lol, not many care about custom roms.

Hello Force,

Sorry to go off topic.

I also live in Canada. Planning to get an exynos this year. It seems to me that eBay is the only way. Never did it before. Couple of questions if u dont mind.

Where do u recommend getting it from? Did u get any warranty?

Because I might get the note9. Do u recommend waiting a month or two when the prices cool down a bit or its not that different?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] force70:
OT is no problem in a thread like this bro.

I have ordered from Ebay before and all went well but since your in Canada i would recommend checking out

Swiftronics.ca

Or

Pdaplaza.ca

Ive used both and they are both great, swift are local to me in toronto so i tend to prefer them (was just there on Saturday lol). Good bunch of guys at that store.

Hard to say if prices will drop more, theyve already come down since launch so despite the note 9 launch maybe not much more.

Both will help out with warranty if needed, i went through the whole note 7 fiasco with swift and they were great, gave me my money back twice for both recalls no questions asked.

Get the SD ver with an unlocked bootloader. SM-G-9650 if you can get.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] force70:
The only problem there is little to no development. Root and twrp yes but with nothing to flash whats the point?

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Sabertooth:
How much development and flashing done so far on the exynos!! ? Not seeing much. Better batterylife alone compells me not to exchange mine with wife's lol.

Edit: Do u experience any lag on yr Note FE's TouchWiz if you haven't flashed anything lately?Just curious 2 know.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] force70:
Theres some dev for exynos yes, none for snap.

My battery life on my s9 plus exynos has been fine, no complaints.

Note FE is still pretty snappy, its bone stock. Still a fairly powerful device even now 2yrs later.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Sabertooth:
I considered the exynos for custom roms only but hooked up 2 sd due 2 my pretty heavy usage.

Note FE was released a year back right? How you used for 2 yrs ? :p keyboard error :confused: my sis uses a galaxy s8 and it shows some minimal lags. TouchWiz:crying:
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Y0sHii:
Idk but the Hong Kong variant Snapdragon seems like the ultimate device unless I'm missing something.

Will the HK variant work on Sprint?

Do you have the option to just unlock the bootloader without tripping Knox?

Besides root the HK variant has built in call recording in the UI right?

Samsung Pay works?

Will voLTE work?

Does it support wifi calling?

if so i will definitely consider buying the HK variant of the Note 9

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] varcor:
The Note 9 won't be released until August 9th, only rumors at this time regarding features and capabilities. This is an S9 Plus thread, if you're inquiring about the S9 Plus the following...

Will the HK variant work on Sprint?

Yes

Do you have the option to just unlock the bootloader without tripping Knox?

Not sure but you're looking to unlock the bootloader for what? If you flash the device Knox is tripped, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Besides root the HK variant has built in call recording in the UI right?

No

Samsung Pay works?

Yes

Will voLTE work?

Yes, in Hong Kong, the stock firmware's CSC is TYG - Hong Kong. If you wish to have VoLTE buy a device from Sprint.

Does it support wifi calling?

Yes, in Hong Kong. If you wish to have Wifi Calling buy a device from Sprint.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Y0sHii:
Ok thanks for the info, This was more or less asking about the note 9 but i know there's not alot of concrete info on the Note 9 variants. I would like the option to unlock the bootloader without tripping Knox because my whole reason to root the phone would just to grant root privileges to apps i already use to have additional features. Apps such as: Greenify, Bixby Button remapper and Tasker etc. However i wanted the option to return to stock and use Secure Folder and Samsung Pay eventually also. It's just the desire to have more options which it seems the HK variants offer a little more of with less trade off for me. I don't really mind the Wifi calling or VoLTE not working in the states.

Hello, I am from Hamilton Canada and was looking for an S9 plus. Which model would work best for Rogers network?? I was looking for exynos variant for the customization. I was looking at Kijiji and there are a couple of international versions but I don't know what model to ask for.

Also, if I get the canadian snapdragon the i am done from rooting ???

Thanks,

Currently using S7 Edge.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] force70:
The CAN or US snapdragon is locked down and no root or anything else.

I always run exynos, have been for years on rogers. You would be looking for this model SM-G965F or FD (dual sim)

For example

https://swiftronics.ca/product/sams...d-factory-unlocked-model-international-model/

I get all my devices from them but you can find on Ebay, BH photo etc also.

The S9 plus HK or Latin American version has a snapdragon but can be BL unlocked but there typically isnt as much development for these. SM-G9650 is that model number.

Does any one have the same issue? I have set it to always be on but it only works when the screen is on. Please advise.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] MrClean69:
It was that way with the S8+ also. I thought it was supposed to work when the screen is off but I could never get it to work. Kind of a bummer since I think it would be a cool feature.

I tried contacting the customer support and all they told me was to reset the settings because something might have interfered with it :rolleyes:

Super helpful as always. I thought maybe the always on display had to be on, but it doesn't seem to matter. The only way it works is with the screen on that I've found.

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] todd3835:
I had mine working and it got turned off. It was only working with screen on. Went back into settings, and apparently the settings got reset to default when I switched samsung themes. Changing the settings back fixed my issue. I can confirm, that at least on mine, edge lighting does work with screen off.

Edit: Apparently it's no longer working again after just trying it.

It turns out you have to make sure that pop up notifications is on when the screen is off for all the apps you want the edge lighting to work.:fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] nap007:
Yet another stupid software design from Samsung, all most of us want is that the edge lighting can replace the notification led, right? But no somehow they over complicate this ****.

tried all the settings i can think of, it just won't show up for notifications... went back to the old app i used for the S7 Edge just so i could have some visual notification back, because the default one for the S9+ will not work for me at all
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] afh3:
Edge lighting appears to operate properly, on my phone anyway, for some but not all apps - whether the display is turned on or off.

For example, using Samsung's "Messages" app it works. Using Verizon's "Message+" app it does not.

Nope. Have also been trying to get Gmail to work with edge lighting but no luck.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Amjad.AbdulGhani:
When this is fixed or updated.. Please update us here..
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Galaxo60:
There's a way to make Gmail and other applications work, but not just with the Edge Lighting configuration.

Problem is the notifications themselves, because the Edge Lighting only works with pop-up notifications, and not all the applications support this.

There is a workaround that implies installing certain applications to convert all applications notifications to pop-up and from there you can have everything working in Edge Lighting.

Take a look at this post, is very useful:

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Galaxo60:
As I said, problem is that Edge Lighting will only work for now with apps that have pop-up notifications, otherwise it doesn't have a way to show the lights.

It's a bummer, but it is what it is. Until Samsung doesn't fix it, we only have workarounds.

:cyclops:
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] studiosanctum:
It doesn't even work for apps that DO have pop-up notifications when the screen is off. For instance the stock messaging app does not work even. Bottom line, DOESN'T WORK as advertised.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] afh3:
Samsung's stock message app does produce edge lighting on my Verizon S9+ while the screen is off. Not sure why it isn't on yours, but it is one of the few that actually does work.

I've yet to get it to work on their stock email client with the display turned off.

It does work with the display on... But, only for recipients that you have placed in your "VIP" list.

Interestingly, it will only work on Verizon's Message+ app if the "Enable Popup" option is turned on (which I find annoying) AND the "Enable Popup Over Lock Screen" is turned on...

...but, only if the display is turned off. There will be no edge lighting if configured that way with the screen on.

Clear enough? :)

So, yeah. There is some work that needs to be done on many fronts.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] Galaxo60:
I'm sorry, but stock messaging app works flawlessly, and there are even workarounds to make them work.

Is true is not working as expected, but there are ways.

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] eodrambo:
Hey guys just wanted to pop in and say that I have spent the last 6 hours trying to figure this beast out - how to wake the screen on my s9+ to view an incoming text message (with android messenger) or hangouts message

there is a problem involving AOD and edge lighting - both are awesome but there needs to be some bug squashing done to make things work the way they should.

I found a solution and its rather simple - Its called "Glimpse Notifications"

Its a simple push through that listens for notifications from certain apps (I put it in whitelist mode) and wakes the screen up for those notifications, so you can see what the hell is going on.

Its a work around until Samsung fixes their bugs.

Here's another app that seems to go further in depth with Oreo notifications and allows apps like hangouts (with poor notifications settings) to pop up so you can see what was sent - something I am a fan of.

https://www.xda-developers.com/notification-importance-controls-all-apps-android-oreo/#disqus_thread

Hope this helps for now!

For whatsapp, you need to go to whatsapp setings>pop up notifications and chose always show! You are done!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] pimikiel:
There is a note in Edge lighting settings that it replaces pop up windows that TURNS ON THE SCREEN with Edge lightings. Only those notification that would normally turn on a screen will turn on edge lighting when a screen is off. Damn Samsung why that way? ;S

That's why Glimpse Notifications should be a workaround.

It's turned on here for all the apps and still doesn't work with screen off. Annoying as hell. Only way I could make it work, bizarrely, is enable pop up window notifications for whatsapp. Somehow that enabled it for whatsapp AND other apps too.

no edge lightning when the screen is off (edge lightning set to ALWAYS).

got a response from a super user on one of samsung forums - he advised to report this bug via samsung members app.

i encourage all of you to do so - lets make samsung developers aware of the severity of the issue!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] mymagicmyhero:
Hi all.

I think I figured it out. At least I think I figured out the principle of how 'Edge Lighting" works, which was the thing making me also complain about this.

So for all of you, which are on 8.0 the problem is that the description of this function in settings is misleading (not correct). Those of you using OneUI will understand me, because the description is much more accurate.

It now says: "Edge lighting will replace notifications that turn the screen on." You see, not the notification itself, but only when a notification is set to turn the screen on!

The principle of Edge Lighting:

Edge lighting itself is not independent function. Infact its the opposite!

When turned on for "While screen is off', what actually happens is that It replaces the function of "waking up" the screen when you receive a notification.

Which means it relies on a function based on each one of your 3rd party apps to have, because there is no master switch for this option.

For example:

-Situation 1:

You can enable 'Edge lighting" for "Google Allo", but it WON'T work, because "Allo" itself doesn't have the option to wake your screen when you receive a notification.

-Situation 2:

You can enable "Edge Lighting" for "Viber", and it WILL work when screen off, because "Viber" itself has the option to wake your screen when you receive a notification. Try turning this off, and you won't get any "Edge lighting" effect on your device.
