[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] aleksahadzic:
I think unfortunately you can only change TGY firmware with CHC and Taiwan. I'm not 100% sure, though. Check with others. Iflashed my CHC to TGY ( hong kong ) but It rejects update to other firmwares.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Mucsello:

[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] PauloRojas:
This CSC change cannot be made.

You can only change between Hong Kong and Taiwan versions, just as it gives an error if you want to change these CSCs to the Chinese one.

I don't think so about 23rd of December. I guess the only country that will have the "late" update is India, the Members App did sent that message to users.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] bilalwarraich:
i meant after november 23rd or in decmeber start.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] nightoooo:
Yeah, it could be. Anyhow, the people in Europe has the Exynos variant. The people in the US has the Snapdragon, so Samsung seems to be done with both chipsets but awaiting operator's acceptance for each country/region which may delay that rule out (it effecting both locked and unlocked phones).

so in Samsung members app it shows update coming in December. :confused::confused:

It showed also that India will get thier update in December .. but they have got it today. It's just an estimation, not necessary precise ..

but i am pretty sure these TGY BRI CHC these will get in December or after 23 of this month. man my friends have Exnoys versions of s21's and they all got update and i hate this. i always bragged on them of snapdragon lol and they do. :sneaky::sneaky:

Well, for my part.. my work phone is Exynos (regular S21) and i live in Sweden, i received the OneUi4 yesterday...

What i want to say.. that You will not miss anything if you wait for the update to hit TGY version ..

I have also my private S21 Ultra (TGY) ... so i can wait until 23rd of this month or next, doesn't matter so much.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] ekerbuddyeker:
I also tried out ui4 on a U version. Actually I was a little disappointed. It seemed to remove more useful things than add. To me anyway. Small things here and there. Inability to delete emails on pulldown menu, messed up the calendar app month view etc. I went and got a pixel 6 pro!

[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] nightoooo:
I still think Samsung is holding in the update because of some issues that was countered in the Exynos and the US Snapdragon variants, they will for sure release the SW when they get approval from all operators involved even though if your unit is unlocked but still they push the update for all at once.

For that repeated lateness from Samsung, i'm thinking about flashing the unlocked rom of G998u1.

While s20 is getting official OneUI 4 and S10 and Note 10 Series officially getting the update in next few weeks, We the S21 Ultra G9980 the flagship of the Flagships are still on Android 11 October Patch, what a tragedy!!
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] nightoooo:
The problem is not from Samsung, it's from the operators that is halting the update looks like, even if you have unlocked phone that means you still depends on operator's approval.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] ekerbuddyeker:
That doesnt make sense. It's Samsung that is delaying it
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] nightoooo:
So you mean Samsung is just "fooling" around to delay the update?

The operators should APPROVE the SW before Samsung can release it for the mass. The operators has what they call for "Customer Acceptance" and during this period if the operators are NOT happy with what they are testing, they don't give any approval until everything is solved. So definitely Samsung is not delaying the release as they run "customer acceptance" test activities all together in all regions in the world at the same time. Maybe the SM-G9980 is suffering from a ShowStopper issue that's why the delay.

Even if you bought your phone cash without any contract/not locked/SIM free, you would wait until the operators are done with their tests and approve the SW.

[Android Apps and Games] Eimji:
Hello,

I would like to present you a new exciting application I have developed to let users share their photos and videos without storing them on a any cloud server.

Sharing is secure and end-to-end encrypted between mobile terminals, and is done only from device to device (P2P) without any intermediate server. Only your friends have a copy of your photos and videos, but they cannot access them to save elsewhere (screenshot is also disabled).

You can install the application on Google Play

Poltreder, private secure phot - Apps on Google Play

Safely share your photos/videos with your friends while preserving your privacy.

play.google.com

Thanks for your comments or any issue report.

All the functionalities in detail:

• Poltreder lets you manage and share all the photos and videos available in the library of your mobile device (i.e. taken with the mobile camera).

• Organize your photos and videos into collections. A collection is a simple tag (see it as a folder) to group your photos and videos. You can then share the collection with your friends. This allows you to control who can view which photos or videos of your camera library.

• Your photos and videos are not saved in any cloud server, but directly transferred towards the devices of your friends. Sharing with Poltreder is fully secure and encrypted.

• Whenever you delete a photo or video from a collection, it still exists in your device, but it is automatically removed from the devices of your friends. Similarly, when deleting photos and videos permanently from your device library, they are also removed from any collection which contains them, and mostly, as well as from the devices of your friends with whom you have shared them.

• If you decide to remove a friend from accessing a collection, the collection (incl. all the photos and videos) will be also deleted from your friend's device.

• If you delete a friend, all the collections, including photos and videos, you shared with your friend will be removed from his/her device, and in turn, all the photos and videos shared by your friend will be also removed from your device.

• No need to create an account to use Poltreder. We just ask you to choose a username and an avatar: this only allows your friends to identify you easily! Account creation is done locally on your device using a process of invitations by email to link accounts between them for sharing photos and videos.

Hi all,

My banking app does support using a fingerprint, but it will only work if I also use it on the lockscreen. However, I do not want a lock on my lockscreen (I just want to 'swipe' my lockscreen without any code or password). I'm currently rooted on OOS 11, is there any way to achieve this?

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards,

Paul
[OnePlus 9 Pro] schmeggy929:
There is not a banking app in this world that doesn't require either a passcode, password or fingerprint. However you do not need to enable Fingerprint in any banking app I ever used, it is optional. You do need a passcode or password for obvious reasons.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] GolovaRaoul:
Ah I don't think I explained it well. Indeed my bank app requires a pincode for me, however I would like to use my fingerprint, but that's not possible since I don't have one set up in my phone. If I set up a fingerprint, I always need to unlock my phone with my fingerprint which I don't like. I understand and want my banking apps to ask for some kind of password of course :P
[OnePlus 9 Pro] schmeggy929:
Yeah I just tried disabling passcode for lockscreen and it states it will remove all fingerprints as well. So it looks like the way you would like will not work. Remember you can always swipe up on lockscreen bypassing fingerprint and instead put in passcode/password. You can set up fingerprints however you do not have to use them.

The only thing that's different now, besides that I don't have the problem anymore, is that I don't use a protector at the moment and I installed "Touch Improvements" Magisk module of AkiraSuper.
