Hi guys,
I am starting this thread so we can discuss issues that might be frustrating. As we are using premium device with top of market price and Samsung should address these issues. I found two issues which are frequently happening on my phone. I just want to see how many other people are having these issues.
1. Randomly Moisture detected and device restarts.
2. "Gear VR undocking issue / tap here to finish undocking your mobile device" notification when I plug in my charger.
What do you mean by "undocking issue" ?
I am interested on these things, My country still does not receive official oreo OTA, I am really concerned about all these oreo issues many post around here, I have even blocked all updates via bk

Gear VR undocking issue / tap here to finish undocking your mobile device when I plug in my charger. Its an irritating notification only.

I want to change my phone shutter speed. What should i do?
You cannot. Shutter speed and RAW shooting mode are supported on the S6 Active 6.0 Marshmallow, but Samsung did not provide them in the built in camera app. All the other galaxy s6's and the Note 5 got it.

You can use open camera, it supports raw as well. Get it on play store, and it's free. Great camera app.

The Samsung S6 Active has an issue where Camera2 API does not function properly. It's limited to 8MP and doesn't focus right.

I think I figured out whom I need to contact to have this fixed. Re-reading one of many support emails I have received from Samsung, I believe the issue is not something they handle. I believe it is AT&T's. I am contacting them right now, and so far my support experience has been 100x better. Maybe this issue will be fixed after all.

I hope so, and thanks for taking the time to push for something we all will benefit from. Hopefully they will fix this issue. We deserve the same options as the the other S6's.

Welp... I'm a good half hour in, and now they are telling me to reset my phone, and do a bunch of other stuff.
Code:
REDACTED: I believe the issue is just an error on the developer/team who manages the S6 Active's software updates.
AGENT: Probably.
AGENT: But I want to keep looking into this for you and see what we can do

It seem's AT&T actually doesn't manage the updates. I clarified my issue and the manager of the person I am talking to and I will contact Samsung about this issue. AT&T is just as confused by this as I am, so the manager of support will be emailing me directly so we can resolve this with Samsung.

Download Package Disabler Pro + (Samsung). I think it was $1.99, but it's worth having. Once installed, search "Update" and check the second Software Update from the list.

Yeah that's pretty much the only way to get rid of it for good. Mine is now to the point where it's no longer giving me the option to select "Later." Lol. I just hit the back button and it goes away, then I set it to ignore for 2 hours in notification panel. Why the heck is that the only option Google?!
I should've held off updating since I'm not sure if the night / low light shots being yellow/warm is from the update.

Samsung Gear IconX (2018) - won't connect to my note 9 when the case is open, I have to manually turn on Bluetooth for it work. Does anyone have this problem?
I have tried resetting the earphones and have uninstalled the app but the issue still persist.
Did you press & hold the button on the back of case and then turn on Bluetooth? That's what I do with mine. Just did it a few hours ago.

Try pairing your cradle to the phone. Basically when the cradle is closed with earbuds inside, pair it again by pressing the bluetooth button. Worked for me once,

Try resting the earbuds. They have a small hole on them where you can do a hard reset. Refer to the manual for specific instructions.

no offense but i suggest you keep your opinions to yourself if you yourself have no plans in helping besides telling me what info i should've provided in the first instance as this does not offer any solution to my issue.
I know what i disabled, the apps i disabled are not related to anything that could've stopped this from working. Also, if you read my previous post i specifically said this used to seamlessly work. I'm 95% sure the issue is not related to what i've disabled, i was merely expressing that 5% doubt.
Again your opinion is not required if you're not going to offer any solution.
Where in my post did i mention that the issue started AFTER i disabled some apps?

Urgent Help
How do you auto pair it by just opening the case? Do you have to turn on Bluetooth? I do not want to do it manually.
Hi guys
I made this app which is currently in Beta. I've had a lot of downloads and I received two emails recently, one to say the app does not work on the S8, and the other to say the app does not work on the Note 8. So I tested my app on the Samsung Remote Test Lab and it seems to be working fine on the S8. I am wondering about the Note 8, as I wasn't able to test Pie on it.
I then thought of asking the S8 and Note 8 forums for help. If you are on Android Pie, could you please try the app and let me know if it does what it is supposed to?
For more info, the XDA thread is: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-easy-dnd-disturb-beta-release-t3917437
The Playstore link is: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.strangerweather.easydnd
Needless to say it's a free app. If you could post your findings in this thread I would be very grateful! Cheers!

Hey so, I'm on a note 8 running pie and ive got some information regarding the application.
If you turn DND On
Select Priority Only mode
Enable messages and alarms
(And then check the permissions through Samsung settings)
Everything is fine so far.
But if you then go into priority settings and change anything
It will disregard what you previously selected (in this case messages and alarms)
I will screen record and post it here if you would like.

I just downloaded the gcam for the snapdragon variant.
In the future, the gcam port is dependenant on the phone it's intended for, otherwise you need to adjust the settings manually.id highly suggest not touching ANY settings in the camera app that are in the " settings" menu. You can change the camera modes and stuff but don't touch the settings menu.
As for whitch version to download, any gcam that is in red and Bold is a stable working non beta version.

Yes I did. You told me what you did, what I should do, gave me a couple links to sites...but you never answered the question. Yes or No would have been sufficient since I know all the other stuff already. I just wanted to know if that link was just for the Pixel, since the article didn't make that clear.
BTW, I have changed many of the settings (as suggested when they came out) in earlier versions to get them to work.
Thanks anyway.
So can anyone point me to the correct gcam for my Note 9 Snapdragon? I assume the latest and greatest Google cam port is pretty much install and use as is? I'm seeing several in Red and bold.. Haven't been keeping up lately. Thanks

And these are the kind of pics it produces (just took this a minute ago).
Everyone says you make no adjustments to the settings, yet unless I'm living on Venus, green pics are not what I want.
