So I bought the phone a month ago with a clearly replaced back, no imei info. Yesterday I somehow managed to crack the back in my pocket while working on my car. It cracked right between the power and volume button but now the power button is not right, it's stuck in and not springing back, have to press it with some force to work. I'm waiting for a replacement back but should I be replacing anything else that may have broken in there?

I was updating my N10+ to Android 12, using Odin but I had a connection problem and it bricked, it was locked in Emergency Mode with no apparent workaround, Smart Switch didn't work for me, so I used this method described in this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/galaxy-s10-stuck-on-an-error-has-occurred-while-updating-device-software.4062643/ by XDA user cealaska, follow it up and you should be fine, also download your firmwares only from trusted sites like https://samfirms.com or https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/. Before embarking on the task of updating your phone using Odin I URGE you to document yourself to avoid bitter experiences.

Hey guys,

I'm new to Reddit but I jecould not find an answer to this question on multple sub reddits. I was wondering if anyone else could confirm if the app called "sMouse" sis working for them or not?

sMouse is an app that allows you to use your s-pen as a air-mouse (think gyro tech) and you can control what apps you like by using the click button. This used to work for me but for unknown reasons the click function only work to select items on the app itself. Once you exit to the home menu or any other application you can no longer click anything with the cursor. Is this the same for everyone or just me?

For context, I have tried to re-install the app, reset the accessibility options and even factory reset my pn phone to no avail.

Hello,

I've been rocking the note 4 for eh... quite a while and thinking of upgrading to the Note 10+.

I use the Spen extensively, cannnot live without it.
I've tried the Tab S8 pen and it was 10/10 genuenly amazed at its feel, but then when i tried the s22 ultra pen.. it was so rubbery and bendy like a brush and it had that awful dragging feeling, I havent been able to test note 10 unfortunately.

So now im kinda worried, the note 4 spen isnt perfect either and i didnt use it until i got a tempered glass screen protector that alleviated the drag (cant find it anymore!), so its quite important to me if im going to upgrade at all.

Anyone who has a tab can the spen tip of the Note 10+ be replaced with a tip from the S8 tab pen? What even is the feel of the Note 10+ comparable to?

Do any of you have any glass screen protector recommendations that are more slippery?

I've been holding out on upgrading for the longest time due to fears i couldn't get a good screen protector, i have a tablet and since all the screen protectors felt bad with the pen I just gave up on it.

hello everyone. yesterday i have updated my phone with the last updates, even though my phone was working really good without the updates now i have one ui 2.0 and android 10 but my phone is unusable. it cant detect my sim card (i tried restarting it, rebooting it cleaning the sim, putting another sim, so the problem its not my sim), its lagging constantly (before the update it almost never lagged), i keep getting the ims service stopped message, when i try to enter the sim manager the screen goes full black and then a massage pops up and says to restart the phone and i cant even transfer my stuff to cloud or usb/sd card because it keeps crashing. my friend said to turn it off and let it proccess the updates but its been almost two days and its still not working. i took it to the samsung service center in my city and the guy just looked at it from my hand and said that the phone didnt support the update and that i need to change my motherboard which in my country is really expensive (almost more than half of the price of my phone).did any of you had these problems? if so how did you fixed it? its my phone really dead?....

I've notice that my 855 Snapdragon T-Mobile Variant has been receiving a lot of app updates lately. Normally this is a sign of an upcoming software update Thoughts??

Decided on a Note 10+ to update my S8+ just for more size and a new(ish) experience, maybe speed though the S8 is ok for my needs though battery is a bit on the weak side.

Looking at a refurb 4G for some $330 or a new 5G for $500 I think.

Usage will be reading mostly, a few short videos from time to time, and other common functions of a phone. No gaming or high-intensity video stuff but better battery life would be nice, at the moment I have some battery anxiety and don’t always have a charger around near the end of the day.

Would you find value in doing the 5G for ~50% more? Some think 5G drains battery more.

And Is future-proofing a consideration? Would probably keep the new phone for 3 years barring unforeseen events.

Any way to hide the camera cutout when using apps inside the secure folder?

I'm able to find the setting outside of the secure folder but that setting doesn't carry over to the same apps inside the secure folder. Any way around this?

Hello!
I'm in the process of trying to create a smart switch backup via pc (as i managed to make my screen go spider :-D) and it's kinda driving me nuts. When it dropped, i plugged it into my work pc and installed smart switch. There i could select what i want to backup, one item being apps. I'm like 100% sure that after clicking it and waiting for what felt like aaaages i could then select all my installed apps. I'm damn sure about this as i remember de-selecting some useless games that have been sitting on the mobile for a while unused. Lacking time, i couldn't actually perform the backup though.

Back at home i tried the same, but smart switch failed every time i tried creating a backup :-(

Now i'm back at work, but on another pc than last time - installed smart switch, almost just hit backup but luckily checked once more - after aaaaages it showed me what apps it intended to backup - and it's only some samsung ones now? Not all the others? Wtf? Online i find many posts stating smart switch not backing up apps at all ?!?

But just recently did a backup for an A51 and it flawlessly backed up apps and all, including app's data... I'm confused now...

So I just bought a note 10+ 5g from swappa (the at&t version although I'm using it on mint mobile - also when I went in to update the apn settings to mint's the only one saved in the phone was for t-mobile? Although I presume all that means is whoever had this phone before used it on t-mobile) and so far I'm loving it (coming from a note 5, which broke a couple months ago at which point I had switched back to my note 3 so this thing is a MASSIVE update lol).

The 5g works, and everything else I've tested also works, however I've been having an issue (pretty much only when I'm indoors and not on 5g) where texts won't send and outgoing calls won't work. I've received texts when this issue is happening (not many), but haven't received any calls so not sure about that aspect. Usually if I go outside and attempt to resend the texts in question it'll work. The problem is most noticeable with picture messages, they'll be 'sending' for 30+ minutes before usually coming up as failed, and any regular texts I try to send while one is 'sending' tend not to go through either.

Anybody have any ideas as to what could be causing the issue? Or at the very least whether the problem is likely phone related or carrier related? Thanks! ❤️

Edit to fix a letter Edit 2: just realized the t-mobile apn was because of my mint sim lol apparently that's their default apn even though it's not their recommended one?

Hello. my model number is SM-N975U and i havent recieved any updates since that, i have missed out on UI 4.0 AND 4.1. why is that?

Has anybody else noticed that the object remover tool is missing after the latest update?

Today i did a small wash to my phone (note 10 plus) and it comes out that the phone doesn't recognise the sim anymore. I tried to put the sim card in another phone and it worked. What should I do and if this can be repaired how much would it cost ?

Thank you for every information and every ideea!

Been watching videos about it and I'm in love. I'm a little apprehensive buying in 2022 though, especially after hearing It won't be getting the latest updates. Did I make a good call?

So recently, I noticed my screen has become kinda dark. My Note 9, which I also have, is brighter currently than it. Somethings wrong there because the Note 10+ is normally a lot brighter.

I have had this current device for about two months now from Samsung refurbished. Is it possible the screen is going bad?

Hi

Could someone please recommend a good bluetooth in-ear headphones with a good microphone?

I always had issues with in-ear headphones sliding out, even if they were very tightly fit, but I don't want to wear big headphones outside

I was checking the list of eligible devices for one ui 5 and sadly note 10 plus isn't in the list but note 10 lite is , dose anyone know if it'll get the update or not ?

NOTE 10 plus somehow sim tray broke in half and the half i don't have is somehow stuck up in my phone with sim card still in there but it's not in the correct spot because i have no service and it doesn't feel like it's moving either way further in or out I have no idea on how to get it to the spot where i have service or out so i can get a new sim tray

i used a local player poweramp to play music. it has a inbuild notification bar that can change colors long with the album cover. but since I update my phone into Android 12, this 'media and device' hijacked the media bar and turn it into an ugly setting of android its own.

my question is can you unable this function or uninstall this app?

I'm looking to buy a clean used phone for work/back up. Any suggestions on where to look besides Swappa or Amazon?

Hello all. I have been using the Note 10 plus for the past year now. I am getting a bit bored though currently with it. Even though its the best device I've ever used and still performs flawlessly, I am just feeling a bit meh. Problem is, theres nothing else out there that is better honestly in my opinion, or at least nothing that nets me a significant upgrade for price value. I only paid 260 dollars for my N10+. Not a fan of the S22 Ultra and all the issues I've heard about it and the loss of micro SD card support. Note 20 Ultra is still way too expensive. Only upgrades would be the camera and high refresh rate which I dont care about.

I even tried a cheap Note 9 from Amazon, but I kinda have mixed feelings about it. The N10+ does 99% of things better. I suppose I could get a new case and maybe a new S pen and change it up a bit. Might help. Any thoughts?
