[Samsung Galaxy Watch 6] Snowleopard1900:
I don't have any watches yet but have been looking and pre ordered the 6 classic 47mm, The shipping has already been delayed a week so I am not getting it today.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 6] sanjsrik:
I know someone who got one of those, exactly what is the point of getting something that does exactly ONE thing? AND, you have to pay a monthly fee.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 6] stewarta13wsb:
I'll ask here... watch 6 classic to S23 Ultra... how on earth do you force a back up rather than leave things on overnight and it decide when to do it? I'm stumped!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 6] sanjsrik:
You don't. It's now on a schedule. As it says in the app.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 6] stewarta13wsb:
Thanks, made me look into it further and I had Smart Switch deep sleeping as I didn't think I'd need it until my next new phone!!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 6] vigneshnm:
So my 2 year old GW4 44mm LTE has conked off. The motherboard and battery are gone and will cost half the price of a new GW4 for replacement and repairs.

Since the GW6 doesn't have any new sensors and appears to be an incremental upgrade, I'm not sure if it's worth buying it or should I hold on for GW7 or 8. So I have 3 options before me:

1. Repair my existing GW 4 for $100 with the hope that it lasts for at least a year. No guarantee some other component doesn't conk off in the near future.

2. Buy a new GW 4 Classic 46mm LTE for $200. I'd have preferred to buy a normal GW4 than classic but it's not available anywhere, esp the LTE variant. Might get the BT but not interested in it. The advantage here is, it would last a year or 2 and I can then opt for the GW7 or 8 which should be a proper upgrade over the 4.

3. Buy a new GW6 44MM LTE for $400. Are the new processor, RAM and battery really worth the $200 more over the GW 4 Classic?

I'd love to hear your thoughts

Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 6] bobby janow:
You might be able to get a couple of hundred bucks for the trade-in at Samsung. They don't care if the watch is working or not. Might be slightly less but worth a shot. GW6 is really awesome, I have the LTE version as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 6] vigneshnm:
Unfortunately no trade-in in India. Got to pretty must just scrap the old one if it's not working
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 6] old_fart:
Today, the youtuber @ALLSTARSPACE reported on a glitch hiding in the operating system of the new watch. Well this shows they're figuring out stuff (code) that is buggy.

It came to light because of good old (and well loved) Bixby. People were swapping that out for goog assistant. When they did that . . . the assistant became the biggest battery user. Huh, why was that ? Turns out that background apps (aren't) weren't unloading, but were sticking around (hiding) and being a memory and cpu pigs. Oink oink ! The video shows a work around until sammie gets a patch out.

I can report I'm getting about 50 hours of battery life. This seems okay for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 6] vigneshnm:
So the solution is, don't swap it to Google Assistant till the issue is fixed?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 6] casnay:
Why are all apps showing as allowed to run in the background but the option to stop this are all greyed out?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 6] naudmick:
Can you explain the solution, I'm French and despite watching the video I don't understand what to do...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 6] congusto:
I found that if you reset the watch, it will start the process by making a backup first. Not sure if you can cancel the process once the backup had been made. It is a bit much to go through the whole reset and restore process after to force a backup only.

[Amazon Fire Phone] dini77:
Many apps (like Maps, Weather, Duolingo, downloading translations for Microsoft Translator, etc) stopped working, maybe a month ago. Maybe there is an expired certificate or something, and I can replace some file with a new one, or there is some other way to hack my phone to fix this? I am using Fire OS, not Lineage, because in my mind having this weird unique OS is the main reason to hold on to this old phone. It is of course not my main device but I like it, and it was nice for checking weather, doing Duolingo and reading books. Not all internet is broken (Mail is fine, and Amazon App Store downloads apps; browsing also seems fine). I do think it is a certificate thing, or ssl or something. If anyone has a suggestion for fixing this, I would be super grateful

Need to enable Sim card manager in settings and also Quick Settings section (select call, data sim etc). Any adb command or something to solve my problem?

Hi I have a Redmi 9 that is previously on miui 12.5 but after updating thru the updater which is supposed to be miui 13, it went bootloop. I can't seem to access the recovery and the fastboot. The unit is on all stock and locked bootloader. Any chance that i can rollback to miui 12? or any way to force the device into a recovery or fastboot mode? using a pc or on the unit itself? Thanks.
[Redmi 9 / Poco M2 Questions & Answers] khusika:
Hi @Jayz0999

The only way to flash rom through recovery or fastboot with locked bootloader is by accessing EDL Mode. The easiest ways is by doing UBL instead of EDL Mode.

I suggest you to bring it to the nearest service center for the assist.

Anyone else have issues with sim (no service and switching between knowing carrier and having signal to no signal every 2 seconds)? I have a SM-A536B and this happens ONLY on gsi roms (except for phh AOSP and leafOS) other roms not based on gsi like the s21 fe port works great. I have tried all the common fixes, install ims apk swap to NR/LTE, flash various fixes and still cannot get it to work. Any help is appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] Deleted member 2092952:
GSI's generally need a lot of device specific fixes from what I've ever seen. It was a good idea in theory lol.
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] KarlS08:
Why is it Then that aosp works fine lol, even google GSI a14 the sim works in
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] Beatrixxda:
Yes, I've experienced similar issues with my SM-A536B on GSI ROMs. It seems to be a compatibility problem. I've tried various fixes but no luck yet. Non-GSI ROMs like the S21 FE port work fine. If anyone has found a solution, please share.
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] KarlS08:
I am facing the exact same things, have you tried phh aosp android 12 and 13? they work fine in my tests.
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] Deleted member 2092952:
Doesn't mean they can't work fine for some devices. But, the devices I've looked into have a ton of problems with the GSI roms to restate that again.

Your issue here is apparently the rom anyway unless your phone had a physical issue and it doesn't since it sounds like you have used roms where it works fine. If you look at the bugs for the GSI rom where its not working fine then you'll probably find out they have a lot of issues.

I don't think you can do anything about it anyway except wait or use other roms. So, I don't see any further point here.
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] KarlS08:
Ok thanks for answering my question. I will prob wait until like lineage os releases

Hello,

I've recently updated the phh compatibility list for Samsung A53 5G and have done extensive testing on a lot of GSIs. They all seemed to have working SIM capabilities. Granted, after the most recent firmware update (June?) when Samsung bumped the update bit up SIM wasn't working but after a full reflash (reflashed Samsung's firmware, installed Magisk, rooted firmware by using Magisk, reinstalling TWRP + custom kernel + vbmeta and then installing the GSI) it seemed to have worked properly.

Anyhow, you can see the compatibility of different tested GSIs over here:

Samsung Galaxy A53 5G

Notes about tinkering with Android Project Treble. Contribute to phhusson/treble_experimentations development by creating an account on GitHub.

github.com

Note that on the first setup of the GSI it might not detect the SIM card, if it happens to do that just try to reboot and if even that doesn't work, reflash the GSI.

I've found out that Lineage 19.1 (Google-enabled) GSI (Android 12) seems to work very well and was extremely stable at a cost of an older OS, but if you want a newer OS, Pixel Experience Plus 13.0 was my way to go (pretty stable from what I can tell so far). With Lineage 20.0 I had some issues using Google apps, but it might be worth trying it anyways for you because as far as I can tell Lineage seems to be pretty stable.
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] KarlS08:
I have the april update, should I update to June/July? The steps you told us what I've tried but may be the case of me being on binary 6 april..
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] mytja:
I have been on April patch with Android 12 (Lineage 19.1). I cannot confirm it to be working with Android 13 anymore, but I can confirm Android 12 was working with it. I used vndklite build back then, but I guess that it wasn't the right decision as Android 13 started working as soon as I downloaded VNDK build. You might want to try both builds of Android 12.

I think my bricked SIM wasn't directly caused by Samsung's update. I have flashed my firmware builds directly (when I was already rooted with Magisk) and that caused a lot of issues on my system, major one was with SIM not being detected. After I flashed everything again (using the tedious process described in my first reply) the SIM started working again.

It was all trial and error for me so I can't help that much other than what I learned from my past experiences.
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] KarlS08:
how should I use vndk vendor on Bvn? kinda new to gsi's. only messed around with native roms before. I just wanna make sure that I am doing the right thing, when I've tried I have been using Bvn or Bgn and kinda lost in this gsi world of different versions (ofc know differance between a/ab roms but kinda lost in vndk vndklite Bvn bgn bvs) btw I tried with all of the images on both los 19 and pixel experience and none worked. some didn't even boot, tried flashing all again, the ones who booted had no signal and did not work.
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] KarlS08:
I have reflashed stock. I was first trying with Lineage since I wanted to install a rom that didn’t have google services and without root preinstalles (but I always root afterwards but sim doesn’t work without root too) I use the SM-A536B, which has the exynos 1280, I got the 8+256gb model. The thing is that the sim works without any mods on phh aosp and on a rom called leafos (dunno just scrambled around installing every rom and that was the only other that has most other working) right now it is looking like a google services / rom specific issue, since it works on phh own rom. I am fine right now with aosp (even tho the lack of features) no amount of updates worked (as I speak I tried updated to the latest firmware. Installing IMS apks I have found not doing anything at all (except for crashing system ui once lol) tried with BvN and BvS plus with Bgn, the bvn are the ones most reliable in my tests, and I tried with a BgZ rom (stuck in bootloop) (CRdroid 11)
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] mytja:
Hmmm, that's indeed strange, especially because most (if not all) GSis base upon phh's GSI and his work. That's why they all have phh's settings tab in the Settings application and support a lot more features than pure AOSP supports.

You've used phhusson's treble_experimentations build (https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/), which is based upon Android 12, if I understood correctly. phh has stopped working on this repo and has taken a break from this whole GSI situation, so him and others have created an organization called TrebleDroid. It's basically an updated fork of phh's treble_experimentations with vanilla images. You might want to check that out.

GitHub - TrebleDroid/treble_experimentations: Scripts to automatically build/CI/Release TrebleDroid GSI

Scripts to automatically build/CI/Release TrebleDroid GSI - TrebleDroid/treble_experimentations

github.com

It's weird that Andy Yan's builds don't work for you as it's basically the same base (he bases off of TrebleDroid). If TrebleDroid GSI doesn't work for you, but phhusson's GSI works for you, you might have found a culprit.
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] KarlS08:
Forgot to mention that trebledroid aosp works, the android 13 one. Should have said that cus that is what most are based of now. That was the one I meant but said phh… his old also works
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] KarlS08:
also come to a weird hack that kinda worked. first I do all the prep. then I install trebledroid aosp. then without any wipe data / reset I flash pixel experience gsi, and then it freaking works, sim and all (except for gboard not working) so this is weird behavior. do you have any suggestions why this could've happened?View attachment 5973157
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] mytja:
Nope, I cannot think of any reason why this reflashing would make the SIM work. It's indeed strange and I cannot think of a reason.
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] dcluvsme:
Everyone I have tried, has "NO MOBILE NETWORK" ?????
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] KarlS08:
I can't verify this since my a53 is kinda bugged out, no custom rom will run on it, just hangs on the samsung galaxy logo permanently, but last time I tried I had to do many workarounds, and reflash it so many times that first when I tried this I thought that my phone was broken.

Noticed this a week back. Near the antenna line. Upper one looks like paint chipped off and lower one(black spots) like corroded aluminum.

Never dropped the phone, not even once. Ringke & Spigen cases being used from day 1.

Have you noticed in your 23U as well somewhere on the body?

It all looks like poor quality control to me, nothing else. View attachment 5963615
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Fl1nt91:

[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Klaudas:
No issues on my end since february 2nd. Taking out phone from the case at least 2-3 times in a week and cleaning it with microcloth. 2 times I washed it in the water. Looks brand new.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] raul6:
Yes, very much so :(
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] ssj100:
I know this isn't helpful, but haven't noticed anything like this on my end. And I've knocked the phone (dropped from short distances) a couple of times. Used Samsung Leather Case for about 3 months, and Latercase for the last month (which ironically doesn't actually have any protection for top and bottom aspects of phone, which I quite like as it makes the case/phone overall lighter AND also the access to the S-Pen is better etc).

What I'm wondering is how you're getting these chips/corrosion when you've been using cases that cover the top/bottom completely? Water/chemical damage perhaps? Or like you say, some really bad quality control where being exposed to air erodes it?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] MerBudd:
I have noticed a single spot where the paint chipped but that's kinda because I was the one that dropped the phone lol

It's on the clicky thing of the S-Pen, there's a tiny little white dot. Doesn't bother me much.

There's also 2 spots which the frame of the phone has noticeable chips, though, again, my problem. (They made me sooo fricking sad but I have to live with it :/ )

Other than that, I actually haven't removed the protective film on the sides of the phone so I haven't had any issues like with yours.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Sad.

I wish I knew about the existence of such markers for this job..

Never used in the rain/took it to bathroom/used in water. I sweat a lot and sweat contains sodium, sodium corrodes aluminum. This is the only reason I can think of. But the frame is of anodised aluminum, hence such issue shouldn't occur. So Samsung's poor QC only comes to mind.

Ok, in your case it's due to drops and such. Mine "occurred" out of nowhere.

I was surprised to see the plastic film being absent right out of the sealed box this time around with S23U. 21U/22U had it. Later I was assured that the S23 units sold in India didn't have the plastic film.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] MerBudd:
Huh, so they make some "environmental" decisions in some regions but not in others? Weird.

What case do you use? Maybe the case had something to do with this.
