If you turn on NFC, does an icon show up in your status bar indicating it's turned on? Mine doesn't.

Have you hidden it with Goodlock 2018 by any chance?
Actually, just played about with mine and yep, no NFC icon, doesn't matter what you do in Goodlock with it...
Think it depends on the region firmware.
I'm on T-Mobile SQU1ARJ8 and the NFC icon does show.

Check for a software update. I just got ARK1 this morning from T-Mobile.
And my NFC icon is still there.

That was my first thought.
I have the Verizon 8/512 version on Android 8.1.0 and security patch dated 1 November.
The NFC icon shows in my status bar when on.
I'm on latest International build with Nov security patch on BTU (512GB/8GB N960F/DS) and like the OP, my NFC icon is disabled. Not that I'm bothered mind!
Yep, U1 model. I don't have good lock installed. Was wondering if it's anything to do with Zacharee System UI tuner or swift installer, but I don't think so. I checked wife's u1 , same thing and hers is stock with no tweaks like swift or system ui tuner installed.
It might be just unlocked devices that behave like this?

Did you check System UI maybe the icon is inadvertently hidden?

Like I mentioned, the wife's note 9 U1 model has same symptoms as mine. She doesn't run any of those apps so I'm thinking it's U1 specific - NFC icon in status bar not showing.
Sent from my SM-N960U1 using Tapatalk
In system ui on your N9 is the icon listed and appear active? Can you view the icon among all the available icons in the quick settings panel? It may well be that U1 firmware is different and hiding it but what would be the purpose of it.
It will not show on unlocked firmwares aka U1... its just for carrier firmwares
As mentioned above, only carrier version can show the icon.
US/Verizon - Icon is present.

WoW! I had not noticed that yet on my N960U1 model, it doesn't show, how awesome is that? I never wanted that to show anyways. I have NFC in my first pull down and you can see there if it's on, and I usually keep it off because now I use Samsung pay and don't need it! To each his own. Hope you get it resolved in a way I get to keep it hidden.

Yup! Can also confirm it's present on the T-Mo formware, but not on the U1 firmware. Your phone, unlike you, Limey, is perfectly normal. :laugh:

Hi all,
I seem to be missing the 'Extra Volume' button that I used to have on my S8, is this firmware specific do you know?
This is what it should look like https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ky7Mcz68V5o/maxresdefault.jpg however when I make a call it briefly appears and then disappears and it's replaced with 'Call+'
I'm on Vodafone UK if that helps.

Must be firmware specific. Maybe Note 8 doesn't even have it? We would need more people with different versions to chime in on that. With my version Tmobile US. Where extra volume like in your picture it's video call. Would be nice to have that feature, but guess I will take video call over that.

I have the Extra Volume button on my Note8 too, originally unlocked on 'Open Market' firmware XEU/XEU/BRI and now on O2 firmware O2U/O2U/BRI...

I think you are correct, my S8 I flashed with BTU firmware not long after receiving it and I vaguely remember the call+ was on there. Looks like I'm going to have to flash the BTU firmware on this.

Wait well atleast in Tmobile snapdragon version extra volume is available. Might be available for others too. While in call, click on 3 dots up above on the right. You will see option for extra volume. I don't know why it's not in settings.
I have it on a UK factory unlocked phone.

Just providing an update, strangely I now have the 'Extra Volume' button back on my phone which has appeared this morning, now I can only assume it's appeared since my sim swap.
Long story but I've recently moved my main number from Vodafone PAYM to Vodafone PAYG and back to Vodafone PAYM (replacing my 2nd line number) and after all this, I now have the 'Extra Volume' button!
I haven't had any updates either, bizarre!!
Hi. Can someone explain how to enable the PO2 meter in Samsung health please.
Add it from manage items menu found under three dots
it is activated on that screen but does'nt allow readings to be taken. see screen shots.
Do you see it on the main/home s health page?
yes the tab is there but you cannot take a measurement.
same here i think this feature dont work like heart rate
Sent from my SM-N960F using Tapatalk
Strange, works fine here
Just tested mine, O2 Saturation at 94%, A bit low but I have a lung infection at the moment...
Does the note 9 have the same BP sensor as the S9?
Edit. Yes it does.

i think it might be software related. i am using a dual sim version bought in thailand. anyone with a dual sim that has PO2 working?
Samsung locked some functionnalities out for some countries. So many of us don't have Stress Level or O2 for example. There's some ways to enable this again, via Xposed modules or via changing the CSC to an authorized country.
Any suggestions to which csc works .

O2 meter just got enabled on my phone recently, I don't know exactly what I did... My CSC is still XEU, I've got SHealth 6 (6.2 has it too), but one thing I did however is run SHealth while in airplane mode, maybe that's what re-enabled all meters? Maybe someone else could try it and tell us...

Which software are you using by the way? single or dual sim?
Searched all over the internet and can’t find the latest answer.
I am ready to pull the trigger on Note 9 but dont want to deal with VZ bloatware. I know when Note 9 was originally launched, the unlocked version didnt have the wifi calling for Verizon.
I know S9/S9+ were the same but with an update back in August, wifi calling on unlocked version became available. Has the same update came out for Note 9 yet?
I have the Verizon 8/512 version.
There really is not much bloat, like in the past.
4 apps that I wouldn't use, with only the Verizon Voicemail app that cannot be disabled.

Unfortunately Note 9 unlocked/unbranded firmware still does not have Wi-Fi Calling when using Verizon. This is true even on the latest Pie beta. It's something I am actively tracking. For the tech folks in the room, it's turned off in customer.xml.

I switched from my unlocked Pixel 3 XL to the T-Mobile OnePlus 7 Pro. Sorry to say but RCS won't work on any unlocked device unless you are a Pixel user on Project Fi. My friend, who has a T-Mobile S10+ and uses Google messages, didn't know that he had RCS until I asked him to switch back to the Samsung stock messages app and text me. As soon as he did that, BOOM, we could send huge files to each other and we could see the typing indicator.
I wish that Google messages app worked for RCS. When I first installed it there was an option in the settings for chat but I went back and it disappeared.

It's working for me in the Google messaging app now. I set stock as my default and sent a couple of rcs messages then went back to Google as default. It had chat features enabled this time. Not sure if using on stock activated it or what, but I'm so glad to finally have it working.

Noticed the chat options are available for me in oneplus messages. Can't get them up on Google messages. Sucks becuese I like Googles but I'll switch to oneplus. My gf has a 7 pro so it will work with her. I wish all these damn carriers and companies could get on board with this. It's laughable how long imessage has been in use and we're still on sms.
