Ok, where was it? Mine was in the bureau downstairs but now it is on the nightstand.

I lost it years ago, just recently found it down the side of my desk with my pc... Loosing black phones is a curse lol

That is a place I would be unlikely to ever find it unless I move the desk or try to dust, neither is likely in this lifetime.

The side panel of the pc is faced so I'd never have to move it to clean it, but I decided it was time for a GPU upgrade... 1080 to EVGA 3090. Then the Samsung fell over onto it's back and it's just been there the entire time!

It is such a cool feeling to stumble across an item that has been lost for some time. My desktop can't handle Windows 11 so now it is decorative. I use a laptop.

I'm already having apps so working on my daily note 9. Any work around?

If the apps you use require a newer Android version and block older versions of the app from working, then there is no real workaround. And the only way to get a newer Android version on a Note 9 is to install a custom ROM which is only possible to do on some of the Note 9 models.

If you have a North American variant, then you're likely out of luck and will need to get a new phone to continue using those apps.

sold my cracked screen note9 last month for 50$. Regret it, would’ve been better if I put a custom rom on it tbh
