[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] V0latyle:
I stopped using Samsung devices a long time ago...then foolishly decided to buy a $4500 kitchen appliance package from them. In that 3 years, I've replaced the microwave, replaced the main pump in the dishwasher, replaced the icemaker in the fridge...the only appliances that haven't broken are the gas range, clothes washer, and dryer.

Samsung frustrates me because instead of working on developing better hardware, they seem to be determined to be a software company, especially when it comes to Android - they think they have to reinvent the wheel when AOSP already provides a very solid platform. That's why many people have ditched Galaxy devices in favor of Pixels.

I digress...

For my own eidification, what Samsung apps have been confirmed to depend entirely on Knox?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Beefheart:
Absolutely. Not only do they insist on a receipt with your name on it, they routinely refuse warranty repairs in my experience and put almost everything down to the owner. My wife had a Flip 4 and the screen started developing a black spot next to the fold line after 8 months, which slowly got bigger. Always been in a case, never been dropped. Sent to Samsung for repair, their response was that it was impact damage, that will be £450 please and you have no means to appeal it. Replaced it for £75 excess on the household insurance.

They're a disgrace, that happening a few months back means I'll likely never buy another phone from them. I hate iPhones but you can't knock Apple's after care whilst the phones are in warranty.

Auto Blocker

[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] V0latyle:
This is confirmed? I think I saw something regarding Samsung Health working on non-Samsung devices because of the possibilty of using Galaxy watches with non-Samsung devices
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Beefheart:
I took the list off the Xposed Knox Module thread so assumed without using the module and if Knox was tripped, they wouldn't work. Although in some cases it might be more about being rooted on an unsigned firmware than the Knox flag.

Gotcha. So maybe some Samsung apps will still work without Knox, but if Knox is available and tripped, they won't work.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Witcher6:
What is the purpose of Samsung putting in a Knox fuse? Why should I buy Android if I'm not going to root it?

I don't think it's sincere that it's for security reasons. You can also get into an accident with a car if you don't drive carefully.

Android should not be monopolized by any brand. It should not impose on the user. I won't buy samsung again.

[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Ajaybabu07:
After setup first do this method do not open any banking related apps hope this will help you
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] V0latyle:
Definitely a reasonable question. My understanding is that it is primarily for warranty purposes. In fact, Samsung used to explicitly call the Knox e-fuse the "warranty bit", because they'd reject warranty claims if blown. Not sure if this is still their MO but it wouldn't surprise me.

I've seen the same sort of scheme outside the Android industry. Many automakers use ECUs that have an e-fuse that is blown if a custom tune is flashed; they'll then deny warranty repairs on the basis that your vehicle is modified, and they're counting on the liklihood that you won't have the legal resources to hold them to the Magnussen-Moss Warranty Act. Same thing for Samsung - legally, per 15 U.S.C. 2302 (C), a manufacturer cannot deny warranty due to modifications to the product unless they can specifically prove that said modifications are directly responsible for the failure.

Unfortunately, this is rarely enforced, mainly because the only way to get it enforced is to hire expensive attorneys and bring a federal case against them. When the engine speed sensor in my tuned VW stopped working, I had to pay out of pocket for the repairs, even though there's no way the tune could have caused the failure. Same thing for the water pump, and valve cover.

Android is designed to avoid this; that's why there is Android Open Source, which although it's heavily supported by Google, is itself devoid of Google components. That's why projects like LineageOS, GrapheneOS, and CalyxOS have all thrived.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] hypminds:
So i'm reading after you root that you can't ever trade in this device because Samsung won't take a rooted device because it trips knox? I also hear that you can't use certain Samsung apps like Samsung pay and Samsung pass. I'm just seeing if all of this is true. And if you can reenable Knox. Or if you can use the Samsung apps that people say that you cannot use after you root the tablet
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] JohnTheFarm3r:
It's true and you can't "re-enable" Knox because this isn't a software thing that gets disabled, it's a e-FUSE that pops and that's a permanent thing.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] iceepyon:
Yeah, once you have tripped Knox. There is not much you can do. Unless you can flash the Knox's chip and reset it. Which is probably possible but not easy

[Samsung Galaxy S21 Questions] r.Huzar:
Ok, so I have the SMG991U and almost every time it's in 5G I have no internet: it feels almost as though there is no date.

Tried poking around and I can't find anything but I'm sure I can't be alone. I think I had the issue with 12 (hard to say as I was carrying two phones at the time - one work one personal). Now that I'm down to one phone and this is my primary, it's pretty damn annoying (to say the least).

There are places where 5G is working fine, but most of the places when it's on 5G it's as though I have no coverage. When it rolls into 4G it's flying.

If I could set it to run 4G only that'd be great BUT there is no option for that. Any suggestions?

I'm running Android 13. All current updates. Baseband is G991USQU5DWa8
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Questions] robnitro:
Try this dialer code and report results.

It lets you disable 5g bands. The app won't work probably, it was messed up before 13 came out, try it out and let us know!

Btw since you're on u5, you could roll back to the one from May 2021, i used the T-Mobile cvdb version. It lets me use that app to easily switch bands as a few bands are worse than dial up in my area

You can roll back... The u5 of your current version means you can roll back to that one I linked which is also u5. After doing this,

Also remember to adb disable the update app

If it were u6, you can't go to a u5 firmware.

I forget what that's called, some kind of revision number. Older ones could be rooted and use custom roms.

Since you are very fortunate that this device has usable EDL mode, you can always dump your boot image on any firmware you're by using the EDL tool made by @mark332. (However, I suggest you try following @dedors suggestion first).

[Google Pixel 6a] Andy-in-NH:
The Dell D6000 dock works with a Google Pixel 6a (running Android 13) and the DisplayLink Presenter app, but not very reliably. Sometimes it works totally fine for hours. Other times, the DisplayLink connection from the dock to the monitor fails somehow, sometimes 3+ times in only 10 minutes.

When the screen connection dies, usually unplugging and re-plugging the phone fixes things, but it's very annoying. The dock is driving an older 1920x1200 Dell UltraSharp U2412M monitor, over a DisplayPort cable. The weird thing is that this same dock worked much better with an older Pixel 3a (running Android 12). I don't know if the older vs. newer Android version matters, or is just a coincidence.
[Google Pixel 6a] Andy-in-NH:
For DisplayLink use with a Pixel 6a, I recommend the Targus DOCK190USZ or ACP076US docks.
[Google Pixel 6a] sunshine_butterfly:
Does it support usb connection together with video signal? I want to connect graphics tablet over it. Device in question is huion kamvas 16 4k, it has 2 usb c ports only.

Basically this display should receive video and usb signal through one port. Maybe there is dock which can imitate normal usbc+dp connection?

Sucks that pixel doesnt have normal external display support.
[Google Pixel 6a] Andy-in-NH:
I don't know, and I know nothing about graphics tablets, but I expect it would probably work.

I don't really understand what protocols Android phones are using to talk to the docks, but it must be some kind of general purpose data connection. It is NOT a video out signal, that's why we need a dock with the special DisplayLink support in the first place.

We have Corsair HS70 Wireless (NOT Bluetooth) headphones, which come with a USB dongle that you plug into your computer to make the wireless connection work. With a Pixel 6a phone attached to the dock, and the USB dongle plugged into the dock, the headphones work fine with the phone. That was the case with several different kinds of docks; they didn't seem picky about this. I think we tried plugging in a keyboard once and that worked fine too. We haven't tried any other attachments to the dock. So if your graphics tablet works when connected to your phone directly, it should probably work when connected through the dock to your phone as well.

However, you would need to avoid downgrade protection (it can be done, you will have to download the Fastboot type ROM, unpack tgz, find a bat script inside that does not relock BL, edit the script to remove downgrade protection and use it then to flash manually via Fastboot - not by using MIFlash)

Btw, for any flashing you must first unlock the Bootloader (either for downgrading MIUI and/or for installing the custom ROM)

Hi guys,

The trackball on my Orbit has stopped recognising being rolled up, left or right, and the silver clickwheel is stiff. Is this repairable myself, or should I be looking at a new motherboard?

Cheers,

Nick
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] amfasis:
hey dontpannic, don't panic :p

at least not too hard.

It is possible to exchange the trackball unit. You can sell a new one on the internet (I bought one via eBay, it was in your country and very cheap) Allthough, it is kind of hard to get the old unit out of your phone. You will have to totally apart your phone, because the trackball unit is stick to the daughterboard which is behind the LCD :(

There are a number of guides to help you apart your phone, you can find it somewhere on this forum. Once apart, you can blow the dust out and uncover your current trackball (mine was kind of hidden :p) Or you can get the whole trackball off the board and replace it.

(I should note I got my phone apart couple of times, so have some experience. It can be tricky)

ciao!
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] B73C:
I agree with amfasis, it can be tricky but gets very easy once you've done it a couple of times and know what to expect (how much force to apply separating parts...)

Everything on the daughterboard is pretty open under the cover so I suspect something sticky got dripped in there (cola?) from the symptoms you mention.

I thought I had a problem with my daughterboard as well since I was getting random scrolling action in all applications, but it turned out I had some dirt stuck on the side of the screen giving a bad signal on the touchscreen.

I took apart my whole trackball and even took the silver cover off the silver scroll wheel toggle and took out the tiny spring... that was an adventure getting it all back together correctly after cleaning!

I chalk all of it up to an excellent learning experience and now have no fear of taking it all apart just to look at it again. You will too.

Good luck!
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] dontpannic:
Thanks guys! Will give this a try and see what happens :D
