[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] RSGI:
Hi

I wonder if some features of the Note 10+ could be ported to the Note 9

I believe that the features that dont depend on different or addicional hardware could be ported

E.G.

- Double tap to wake on system options (that wont mess up AoD)

- S Pen features such as Handwriting recognition or others (not the gestures part cause they depend on some addiocional hardware on the Note 9 S Pen, and also... they´re just weird *...)

- SuperSteady Video and Night Mode on front camera would be nice but i´m suspecting that those features might require different or addicional hardware

- Samsung DeX on Windows would also be nice to have...

These are a few of the features i would enjoy on my Note 9

What you guys think?

Do you believe that is better to make the upgrade?

Or you agree that some of the new features of the Note 10+ should be updated to the Note 9 from Samsung itself?

What features would you like to use on your Note 9?

RSGI

* - If you dont mind looking like Harry Potter while taking a picture outside... go ahead and upgrade
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] ultramag69:
Have upgraded but I agree, a lot of the newer features are mostly software...

After the hoo-haa of the Note 10 release, probably 3 - 4 months away, the Note 9 should get a few of these features (those not dependent on the new hardware anyway)..

If not, Samsung is guilty of forcing you to upgrade simply for their financial gain.

This is typical of all mobile device manufacturers. As that is the only way the can make a profit. Also all modern electronics are designed to fail within 2 years.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] koragg97:
Hey, I'm with my S5 since start of 2015 and it's still working fine :D Gonna upgrade to the 512 N9 tho.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] gruuvin:
Forcing? Seriously? What an entitled generation! Samsung pays for that software to be developed. You can pay for it too! They aren't forcing you to do anything. Profit is good. It drives innovation.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] iceepyon:
My old Note 4 N910C is working perfectly as well. However recently I have been having issues getting a decent signal with HK Cell Providers, which is what forced me to upgrade to the Note 8.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Chaos Engine:
I would pay them to use the features on my Note 9.

But I will never buy a phone without headphone jack and a punchout hole.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Shad0wsabr3:
I'd really like the screen recorder software on the note 10+ to be ported to the note 9!

I recieved my note 10+ yesterday and its really not impressing me. It feels a little off for some reason. Maybe because the power button being on the left side? I can't quite place my distaste for this phone.

I find my fingers getting in the way of the camera quite easily. And the front facing camera, not sure if I'd ever get use to that. Every time I make/recieve a call all I see is that camera about to goto my ear and it feels like my ear is about to be violated by a doctor with a telephoto stethoscope?

Enough of that though! Yes, the screen recorder definitely needs to come to the note 9.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Bober_is_a_troll:
You can get native screen recording with good Lock using the nice shot module.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] omnimax:
Isn't it a bit like you would have to buy a new PC every time windows comes with a new feature or something?

Anyway, I can search handwritten notes and also extract text, so I think Note9 already has Handwriting recognition? Maybe it's build in the the Note app itself?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] gruuvin:
I agree! Neither would I. I'll use a Note9 for as long as possible, and if Samsung doesn't smarten up, this will be my last Samsung. No headphone jack was a retarded Apple idea that Samsung follows like lemmings off a cliff.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] dave678:
To be fair Samsung has been following Apple for a long time.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] gruuvin:
Yep. No replaceable battery. No sdcard. But they brought back the sdcard, then brought in the dumb curved edges. Removing the headphone jack goes too far. I won't buy another Samsung if I cannot connect my headphones.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Ashton_Durkhun:
The curved display, while a little annoying, isn't so bad, you can get used to it --- my only huge complaint about it is that it makes cases a nightmare because you can't physically reach the edges of the screen thanks to the design of most cases... (Although arguably if you don't drop the phone you really don't need a case today thanks to the super-hard gorilla glass, I'm just paranoid from so many years of " just look at the phone to hard and it'll get a scratch" --- the one and only feature that flip phones really were a better design)

Also, I think I saw somewhere that one version of the Note 10 actually loses the SD card once again in favor of dual SIMs instead... (though that could be for specific markets where it's more popular like Asia)

I agree on the headphone jack - I actually spend considerable money on good headphones (both my main PC headphones and my phone headset are Sennheiser) because you simply cannot get the same quality from Bluetooth yet (not to mention that is one more device to remember to charge --- though when/if they could get charging as quick as the Spen I'd forgive that, I'd even give up longer listening times if I could just hold the headphones against the back of the device for 30 seconds to get an hour of listening time)

And here's a disturbing thought --- Is the removal of the headphone jack just a step towards removing ALL wired peripheral support? I mean we have wireless charging now, and wireless headphones/headsets, not to mention wireless keyboards/mouse and wireless displays (albeit with slow refresh time and/or high lag) so arguably they could "justify" removing the USB port as well to claim "now it's 100% sealed so it's more waterproof!" while, in reality, making it that much harder to root the phone (and conveniently making wireless peripherals "only work best with Samsung brands" like the Samsung's wireless earbuds)?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Burgscheinkerkdeiktraast:
Move on, who uses wired headphones anyway? It is more and more as cliche.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Bober_is_a_troll:
Lots of people use wired headphones. And lots of people are not buying devices because they lack a 3m5mm audio jack.

But, Go on and toe the line for device manufactures though, who are simply doing this the cut costs and make waterproof certification easier.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Jammol:
Well it's not like if technology shouldn't advance. I'm not saying the Jack has to go right now, but at some point it will need to. Could you imagine if digital cameras today still required a roll of film to use in some way?

Now instead of buying a roll of film, you buy an sdcard. Instead of buying wires, you buy wireless. Instead of using fax, you can now email.

All advances my friends, all advances. And yes a company has to cut cost because....

Say it with me...

"All businesses are in the business of making money!"

Hey look at it this way though. At least the phone comes with wireless Airbuds that IT can charge. Now that's tech! I can't charge any other damn thing in my house without plugging it in, yet that thing can charge music transporters?!

Think about that for a second...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] dave678:
OEM's put headphone jacks on phones back in the days of the flip phone. Now everyone is just copying Apple becasue it's so trendy. The jack will never be obsolete lol. Sure, IR and a jack connector are “old tech”. The launch date of the tech is not the relevant factor. What matters is whether these technologies remain in installed use. Most PA systems, projectors, TVs, air cons etc installed and in use in hotels, meeting rooms, schools, clubs and so on use these technologies.

So if you want to interface with them, you need those technologies.

I just love it when all these bleeding edge people with their bleeding edge gizmos discover that it takes an old fuddy-duddy with a proper ‘workhorse’ phone to be able to get the projector switched on before business can commence.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Bober_is_a_troll:
How idiodic to compare going from film to SD cards.. a clear improvement,both in terms of speed and reusability.

While on the other hand going from wired headphones with no audio quality loss,no batteries to recharge, and most importantly, NO BATTERIES TO RECHARGE.

Wireless headphones are useless for many people, including those who ride streetbikes and put headphones I. While riding. Good luck getting wireless headphones to fit under a helmet without turning your ears Into Swiss cheese, and hopefully you don't go out for more than 4 hours at a time, otherwise, no music 4 u!

It's not an "advancement". You don't need to remove the headphone jack to have the ability to use wireless headphones.

Say it with me one more time.... The lack of the 3.5mm headphone jack is just a way for companies to cut costs and make waterproof certification easier. It has nothing to do with "technology advancing". It's the same reason that only the note 4 had a IR blaster and then they stopped that. It was an incredibly useful feature that was cut to make more $$$. Samsung is doing it's best to put me on a xaomi or huwaie phone. Currently they seem to be the best phones on the market when you look at features vs price.

But, but, my phone has a 98% screen to bezel ratio! It's certainly better!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Jammol:
Why do I get the idea that neither of you took my post for the sarcasm sections that it had.??? Well it is somewhat difficult to portray over text with giveaways. ?

Well I guess I have to be serious about my post then.

First guy, Dave, cool man, yes those technologies are everywhere, the systems advanced to where they got so that they can be utilized everywhere. Wireless tech is advancing as well. BMW has a car that can be charged wirelessly. Think of all the other tech that could be charged wirelessly in the future. Or what other advancements they can make based off that tech. Wait, why am I even talking about this? None of the TVs in my house have RGB connectors, and they said that's the best visual experience we could get. Now we have wireless 4k.

As for the troll guy, I am starting to think you might be the troll. Or you're just really hotheaded. You started your reply with calling my comparison idiotic. And you want an intelligent response from people? Nowhere in my post did I use inflamatory or disrespectful language, but in this one you'll get the feeling.

The point of my post was to show a logical reason for killing the headphone Jack. I even stated it shouldn't be killed right now, but no, you decided to skip over that first opening slice. I went on to agree with you on the fact that yes, they are doing it to cut cost. Hence "all businesses are in the business of making money!" Cause you know, people like money and companies have people in them. A shareholder's goal is to make as much money as possible so that the company keeps making money. Yes cut costs to save money. Hey look I was still agreeing with you.

You all sound like a bunch of old folks who don't like change. If you don't like the direction a company is going, buy some shares and be on the board of decision makers. If not, don't buy their devices. Or....go make your own.

Things will change with or without you, so either accept it or continue to feel bitter about old tech, yes OLD TECH, I SAID IT!!!

I need to stay off the internet at night. I seem to get into some weird stuff.

By the way, while y'all are *****ing about the 3.5mm headphone jack and missing it oh so much, Flynt Michigan STILL doesn't have clean water fam. STILL!??

TALK ABOUT LACK OF ADVANCEMENT OF TECHNOLOGY!

Hey guys,let me tell you all a quick thanks at the end of my journey.

I came to custom roms and rooting after my RN5 PRO

started to have poor battery and full of ads with miui 10.3.1 pie update...it has been 3.5 months and all these days I have been learning about custom roms and rooting and trying harder to improve my smartphone everyday.I got a lot of support from you guys - the developers and my fellow users.Today finally, I got the battery stats that I have always wanted and I'm finally happy.Thank you all!!

I'm now running MASIK F WHYRED custom rom since I don't want any further updates and Extended kernel EAS V3 along with the firmware 10.3.2.0 stable global (?)...(btw thank you xiaomi for this wonderful firmware).For those interested...here are my battery stats as of today(they're not complete since I could get through the day till evening with 50% remaining)

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] Thunderboltp:
Btw guys...I had to choose miui based roms over aosp because of the poor internet connectivity of aosp roms...if anyone has a workaround for that,please help once again.

And just so you know,I didn't choose to install magisk since it itself consumes battery to install modules and update them and audio effects and all were already good in this rom with cam2api enabled...so I couldn't ask for more.
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] donkeykong1:
After Pie update my camera storage keeps reseting to internal memory. I move it back to my SD card, but after a while it goes back to internal.

Anyone else having this issue? How to make it stick to SD card?

[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] p50kombi:
Same here, did you find a solution for this?
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] donkeykong1:
Unfortunately not. I just check my storage before I snap a picture. I can say it's more stable as time passes by. It doesn't happen that often anymore
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] p50kombi:
I think it only happens after a reboot.
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] donkeykong1:
I thought so too, but it's not the case for me. I don't reboot my phone, and it never rebooted on its own. It simply switches to internal memory randomly.
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] avalvidares:
I have the same problem. Do you know if it happens to everyone with Android Pie or only happens to a few? It bothers me because the camera settings change without warning and I have to be aware in the case of recording a long video.

The frustrating thing is that with so little news about the developments it is very possible that we remain with the problem eternally.
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
Happens in my HTC U12+ as well. It's quite annoying that it happens. One always got to check, and as I tend to forget to check it, I always see it later and got to move my pictures to SD manually.
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] donkeykong1:
Try forcing permissions for removable storage. It doesn't solve the issue complitely, but it happens much less. I could go for weeks without it switching to internal memory

[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] jab5555:
I formatted my Sdcard, this cured it for me
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] avalvidares:
I have not tried that. I put it directly from my previous mobile phone (U11 +). Before formatting it, I would like you to confirm to me in a few days that it still behaves the same. That is, after restarting the mobile phone having established external storage in the camera continues to maintain the setting.

If you don't mind, I'd appreciate you giving us some feedback. Thank you.
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] jab5555:
I had u11+ as well, have you cleared the data in the camera app? (obvious usually catches me out lol) I formatted mine via PC after transferring all stuff off my Sdcard, then I formatted the Sdcard inside the phone, it then allowed me to flash from 128gb ruu before it wouldbt. It won't work with twrp tho got be 32gb Sdcard ,it dont recognise & refuses to mount
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] avalvidares:
After five days and two cell phone resets I can say that it works correctly. Formatting the sd card seems to solve all problems. Now the camera is always set to external storage.
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] qriozum:
Formatting the card did not bring any improvement.

At random times, the recording changes to internal memory. In addition, after a restart, usually ringtones (phones, event, alarm, notification in YaataSMS) also return to the system settings.

This is an HTC nut kicked, drama.

regards

q.
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] avalvidares:
You're right. Today it was in the internal memory without having reset. Dammit.

To avoid problems with the ringtones it is better to have the audio files in the internal memory. After moving them, the sounds have not changed again.

Kind regards.
[HTC U12+ Questions & Answers] qriozum:
Unfortunately, after more than 10 years of loyalty to the HTC brand, seeing deadlock, no new premium smartphones, no staff that Google took over - this year I will change the brand.

I'm sorry, but U12 + is the last smartphone of this brand :(

regards

Same Problem here since Pie-Update. I tried everything you all tried, including buy a brandnew microsd, formatted it in the Phone and... still it changes to internal memory. 🤬
[Razer Phone 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Trippyy Doee:
Literally have been up all night trying to find a fix . I even went as far trying to change my device ID to Pixel 2 since people have reported it working . But I failed. I have been using Havoc 2.8 GSI for a month now . But the "fix" was enabling Magisk-Hide for the game . Or just uninstalling Magisk altogether will do the trick . Hopefully this works for all my RazeR Phone users . ?

Change your location to China and clear cache memory of your system update app then try again.
[Honor 8X Questions & Answers] Yir:
That didn't work for me
[Honor 8X Questions & Answers] Cipkomills:
Yeah, don't work

Still no update
[Honor 8X Questions & Answers] olojotob:
Go to hicare and change your region to China, reboot your phone clear cache memory and open hicare and click on update it should show u an update and ask u to register for it so you can see it in systems update
[Honor 8X Questions & Answers] Yir:
Unfortunately, no change. Maybe I am doing something wrong. At least that had the effect that I now have access to all the Chinese Apps on the Huawei App store

I created a chinese account ,changed the region but hicare app still say that system updated

I have the same phone and the same problem. It was just a bad buy and we have to admit defeat: stuck on old Android, no way to unlock bootloader, can't get rid of Chinese bloatware, forcefully upgrading will break Google services. I ended up accepting defeat and bought another phone.

I am on 9.1 and my Google service works great AL00
[Honor 8X Questions & Answers] rakib1129:
How you update to 9.1?
[Honor 8X Questions & Answers] rmvirut:
Also stuck, but learnt something new

I got the same model from my mom after I asked her to grab me one on her trip to China. It immediately upgraded to to EMUI 9 when I got it but (I'm in Canada btw) but I realized no google services so i opted to downgrade. When I heard 9.1 allows for android I tried upgrading again but no luck, I've tried everything mentioned in this thread so far.

I'm a bit new to this but could the firmware that HiSuite flashed unto the device when downgrading be that of another model because my device is now showing as JKM-Al00b instead of JSN-Al00a. The former is the model for Huawei Enjoy 9 plus, which is a very similar device. Can anyone confirm this on their own device?And would this affect the update check?
[Honor 8X Questions & Answers] Yir:
Please don't hijack this thread with a different problem, make a new thread instead
[Honor 8X Questions & Answers] rmvirut:
Sorry about that. It's actually a similar issue I felt was worth mentioning.
[Honor 8X Questions & Answers] bucolini:
i think the only solution is to send the phone to china where i bought it to install me a Global rom, ask the seller and he says it can cost only $ 10.
[Honor 8X Questions & Answers] Babulex:
Any news on this?

I'm stuck on this too
[Honor 8X Questions & Answers] Yir:
I contacted Chinese Huawei support about not being able to upgrade, they consulted a technician who pointed the finger at me having installed Google on my honor 8x al00. Can anyone confirm deleting all google apps including gms solves being stuck on emui 8?
[Honor 8X Questions & Answers] Yir:
I can confirm the above. Uninstall Google services, restart, then you are able to update
[Honor 8X Questions & Answers] Borden666:
Can you go through the steps of uninstalling the Google services? And how did you install it in emui 8.1, did you just download it as an APK and installed it or had to install through a zip, etc?
[Honor 8X Questions & Answers] Yir:
On EMUI 8 I installed it via GMS installer. I uninstalled by removing the google apps and services via the built-in Apps-settings. You have to remember to also remove the services, which are located under "system processes" or something like that
[Honor 8X Questions & Answers] Borden666:
So uninstall it like any other application but make sure that everything is removed from the system processes then restart then i should receive the update right?
[Honor 8X Questions & Answers] Yir:
I thinl you can actually skip some of the apps, the most important one is probably the google play service, but then again, you will have to completely reinstall all the google apps via the lzplay backup method on emui 9 anyway, so feel free to delete everything with the name google in it
