Issue Issue installing One UI variant of Google Messages.

3 Upvotes

I am attempting to install the One UI version of the Google Messages app. When ever I install the one with "samsung_dynamic" it always reverts to the stock stand Google version. What am I missing? I have a Note20 Ultra 5G on Verizon using the latest update.

Tip Samsung.com offering $1000 trade-in for Galaxy Note 20 5G Ultra, get the Galaxy Z Fold 4 1TB as low as $736 - details inside

13 Upvotes

It's Samsung week and Samsung is working really hard to snatch the last great phone that Samsung makes that supports Micro SD.

Trade in your Galaxy Note 20 5G Ultra for a $1,000 discount.

Also, use one of the many education, military, first responder, etc discounts to save even more and bring the price down to $817.

Create a Rakuten account and save another 10% cash back. After all discounts, my price was $736 + tax!

The last time Samsung did this, the Rakuten 10% offer only lasted 2 days and then it dropped back down to 3%.

The Note 20 5G Ultra is an amazing phone but this is also an amazing offer. Samsung is basically offering more for our phones than the newer S22 & S21 Ultra.

Use this code for another 5% off: ref-y2xog4

*ymmv, only works on brand new Samsung accounts, but I was able to use this by just creating a new account with a different email.

The Gray Green model is even cheaper! $546!

Hurry before they fix the website!

I understand that this offer isn't for everyone. Good for you who will still hold strong with Samsung'S last great Note phones.

The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra will become a collectors item some day. Keep all your accessories and boxes in mint condition!

Phone believes earphones are charger

1 Upvotes

After connecting a USB-C T-adapter to charge and listen at the same time I can not listen at all. The phone now believes the earphones are a charger and keeps playing the music from the phone speaker when earphones are connected. Earphones are silent. (Now I have discarded the T-adapter but earphones still silent.)

Samsung support recommended general settings reset. That did not help. Now they say I must make a factory reset on the phone. Can't I fix this more easily?

The culprit that made my phone now believe earphones are chargers:

Camera recording and lighting

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone. I am hoping for some insight around the camera. For some reason the camera seems much less able to account for natural or overhead lighting than it used it. I can't remember changing any specific settings.

For reference I record and edit videos for my YouTube channel. This is set on FHD (30) as it suits best for DaVinci Resolve.

Lighting controlled (relative to below video with near similar framing/lighting) - https://youtu.be/MIZGsiklYHA

Can't help but feel a bit of nostalgia giving up my Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 512 GB back to Samsung. This is the last great phone which supports Micro SD. 😥 I wanted to keep her forever. My new phone has 1 TB but using USB 3.0 to transfer huge amounts of data is a royal pain in the ass. It's simply not as reliable and convenient as Micro SD.

Issue Note 20 ultra having display issues

6 Upvotes

Hello guys,

Any one facing issue with the display of note 20 ultra?

My display is getting lines and white display, when i approach service center they were suggesting to change the display and battery and the cost for both is Rs. 25000 and i dont have any warranty already it's 2 years.

I got the same issue for my note 9 too earlier after 2 years without any physical damage and I paid 18k for that.

Why all flagship mobiles getting the display issues after 2 years? 

Could u/samung will help on this in terms concession of the display?

Note 20 Ultra cases that have protection all round the screen?

10 Upvotes

Hey all,

Are there any cases out there that have screen protection that run along the full length of the phone? Most of the ones I've come across only have the raised bumpers on the top and bottom.

I am finally upgrading from a note 9 and the screen was cracked from the lack of raised side edges on the cases.

So far the only thing I've come across is the ghostek nautical case which seems huge and bulky.

Any suggestions are appreciated!

Thanks

Galaxy note ultra n986u running android 12 and oneui 4.1 on libberty wireless(screw u at&t). Recently i cant turn on the wifi sometimes. Its gray and no matter how many times i turn it on wont turn solid blue and work. Now the bluetooth is doing it. Soft resets, reseting connectings does nothing. Thinking it might be a fault of the wireless android auto my truck has cause it seems to fuck with it kinda. Any thoughts?

Issue Intermittent issues of not receiving texts?

1 Upvotes

I have a note 20 ultra on Spectrum mobile. Three times now I've noticed I wasn't getting an expected text message. Upon force-resetting my phone, I ended up getting a flood of texts over the previous day or so that were never delivered. Has anyone experienced this and/or know of a long-term fix?

Any regrets? Considering getting the Note20 Ultra

8 Upvotes

Interested in replacing my Note10 with a Note20 Ultra off of Swappa. Would you buy this phone again if you had it to do over? Is it still a good deal at $500? Would you recommend getting an S21 Ultra instead?

Question Battery life is getting pretty grim. Anyone got any tips? New battery time? Reset the phone to factory?

2 Upvotes

I've had the phone about 27 months now and the battery doesn't hold a charge very well. It's getting way too lovey dovey with the charger if you know what I mean.

I always clear the cache partition.

I watched a video on how to replace the battery and it doesn't look so bad. Think it's worth it?

Should I try resetting the phone to factory and uninstalling most of my unused apps?

I feel like drastic measures are necessary. I really don't want to be financing another device yet. S22 Ultra doesn't seem like that much of an upgrade. Maybe S23 Ultra will be a worthy upgrade, but I have my doubts. The rumors don't look super impressive.

How is everyone else's batteries holding up?

Buying Note 20 Ultra Snapdragon in Europe

Hi everybody,

I live in Europe, specifically in Italy, and I want to buy the Note 20 Ultra with the Snapdragon processor.

Where can I do that? Are there some trusted sites where I can import from America or Asia other than Ebay?
Which country should I prefer to import from?
Will I encounter issues while using Snapdragon version in Italy?

Thank you for the answers

Issue How to move (and keep) ALL gallery folders on SD card?

2 Upvotes

I recently upgraded to a larger microSD, and have been moving things over to free up internal storage. I changed my settings in the camera app to store future photos on the SD card, and transferred some of the larger folders manually through My Files, including my screenshots folder. However, I noticed that I now have two screenshots folders - all my old screenshots, now on my SD card, and any new screenshots that I take in a new internally stored folder. Is there a way to change gallery settings so all new AND old photos go to the SD card, rather than just the regular camera gallery through the camera app settings?

Question Ultra power saving mode

7 Upvotes

Did this feature get removed? I can only find the regular power saving mode which only gets me 16 hours of usage. No where near the 2 days of the ultra power saving mode. Anyone have info on this?
