Question Dex Standalone - Samsung Galaxy Tab S8

Hey I just want to ask if samsung galaxy tab s8 ultra have dex Standalone. I saw a ported rom(from s20 fe to A50) and they have a dex standalone.
Note: This doesn't need hdmi(because we don't have the necessary hardware) nor wireless( if we want to use dex on pc, we can use wireless).

Yes it does, it's called dex mode and is available on s8, s8+ s8 ultra and even on s7, s7+.
No custom rom needed.

Does it

No extra peripherals needed, launch straight from the pull down quick settings panel.

You don't need anything extra to get it to work. Like Connor said, pull down quick settings and press on Dex button and it will start DEX mode

S5 Active - Options?

I hope this is the right place for this post. I have yet to do one in the right place.
I recently purchased an S5 Active from ATT. When I purchased it, I got the Gear 2 Neo for only $99.
I AM STEAMED that the sales person did not tell me that the S5 Active is not really compatible with the Gear 2.
When I go into the Gear Manager on my S5 Active, under Utilities category, there are only 4 applications available to me.
It was 3, but they just added a new one. 2 of my top reasons why I wanted the Gear are not available in the Gear Manager.
When I install the Gear Manager on my wife's S5, there are more Utility applications in HER Gear Manager than I want to count.
Do I have any options other than to wait and HOPE that Samsung pulls their heads out of their lower orifices???
Is there a way to trick the Gear Manager into not knowing that I have the Active model?
Is there another Gear Manager that I can use that would not block the apps?
What apps are you wanting? My neo works great with my active. Though i do hope for some developers to open it up

PS: According to the support desk for BackCountry Navigator, it is not the developers holding back items for the S5 Active.
It is Samsung holding back.
I rooted my active and changed the build.prop to identify my device as a regular s5. I have all the apps now and no down side that I've noticed yet.

Thanks for the info. Yes! There is way!
I will research how to that and see what I can find.
Thanks again.

Once rooted, use a root enabled file explorer (I like Root Explorer), open up /system/build.prop, look for the line ro.product.model=SAMSUNG-SM-G870A and change to ro.product.model=SAMSUNG-SM-G900A
Reboot, and voila! Samsung Apps thinks your phone is an AT&T model S5.

I finally got up the nerve to do this.
I now have access to all of the same apps in the gear store that my wife does!
Thank you thank you thank you :good: :good: :good:
Glad you got it working....Just don't update your phone when AT&T pushes any out. There is a small update going around that if you install, breaks root and Towelroot won't work.
Can my s5 active version 4.2.2 works with the gear 2 neo

[Q] Bixby XP to Samsung Pay reward

i cant seem to find the option to convert it to my S pay. is this still available?
Click there on your Bixby screen and it will take you to Samsung Pay or just go directly to Samsung Pay. You don't need to convert anything, that page should show you how much Samsung Pay points you got from Bixby

N950N Review

Since my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 N910C had been starting to develop issues, while I am in Hong Kong. Which was probably due to the latest OS updates. Or it could be due to the fact that my N910C doesn't support the use of LTE-A bands, which HK Cell Providers are starting to adopt. I decided to upgrade to the Note 8. I managed to find the Korean N950N model with 256GB of internal storage for an excellent price. The only catch was that they only had it in Deep Sea Blue and they didn't know when they would get the Midnight Black version back in stock. I bite the bullet and got it. The shop owner was nice enough to give me a slight discount. He also installed a case friendly screen protector that didn't work very well with the Spigen Tough Armor. It is not too much of a problem. Just that the part that protects the sensors pop loose from time to time. I am amaze at how fast the Note 8 running, it can handle anything I throw it's way like it was nothing. The placement of the fingerprint scanner isn't as bad as I thought it would be. The iris scanner is pretty good when I have my Note 8 positioned properly. I was able to transfer everything(except my UK Whatsapp account) from my N910C to my N950N using Smartswitch , which was incredible. The Secure Folder is useful for storing my personal files and apps, I managed to put my UK Whatsapp number in there.
The only downside is that some of the old S Note features are now gone! I can no longer take a picture and have it converted into an editable document like in my N910C. Which was a very useful feature, I guess that Samsung must have removed it.
You can install the old S Note app, search for it
Hello,
How much does it cost?
The s note app? it is free

With WhatsApp, I periodically back it up to Google account. Then use smartswitch which works good.

Sorry for being unclear, but I meant the price of the note 8 256gb in Korea?

I paid HK$5699 for my N950N, which converts to GB£518. Which is a steal! As the 256gb UK model of the Note 8 cost around £900

Tried it. But even that doesn't have the photo note function. Which is strange as the S Note app on my N910C has been updated to the latest version, and it still has the photo note function.
After installing the Oreo update. I noticed that one of my games Texas Hold'em Poker 3 no longer takes up the full screen when it loads. Even if I have the game set to fit the entire screen. Other than that everything looks the same. Except the Settings Menu has been brought up to the S9S series GUI. There maybe some performance increase but I didn't notice any.
Still rocking my N950N. Even after the release of the N960N. My N950N is still a beast. The camera quality is excellent despite being a single aperture lens.
Just installed the Android Pie update for my N950N. I have noticed that when my device boots up it takes a few seconds longer for the keyboard to appear for me to enter my password. Besides that everythings seems pretty snappy. I am not fond of the One UI. I prefer Samsung UI, which came with Nougat and Oreo. One UI seems way too cartoony. The buttons and icons for all the Samsung apps seem to be designed with kids in mind. I like that you can just use swipe gestures to navigate the device, which eliminates the need for navigation buttons.
I have also discovered that the game launcher doesn't include the stretch to full screen option anymore, which is a shame as that worked fir stretching games to full the display very well. Figured out how to fix this problem in the Settings Menu.
Just discovered that you can no longer disable Bixby once you have installed the Pie update onto the Note 8. :crying::crying:

But you can now remap the button to any app you want.
Now there is a option for a single press and a double press.
Just got the Bixby update.
edit.
Know I have Google search open up when I single press instead of Bixby and if I want Bixby double press.
But holding down the Bixby button will bring up Bixby voice command.
Have you tried a third party app to disable it?

I found out about that. But I want to disable that button completely as I probably won't ever use it. I might try a 3rd party app
Anyone noticed bixby voice password feature is missing? On oreo if the phone is locked, u can use bixby to do something, and unlock phone via voice password. Now it'll just ask u to enter pin or pattern

Go to Bixby voice settings and tap on voice wake up. It's there, look at my previous post with screenshots you can set the option.
If not there update Bixby.
Now the feature does it like Google style with voice unlock. Meaning it just unlocks when you say "Hi Bixby" without asking you for a voice password.

Make sure you update Bixby. I just tried that command close all apps and it worked without asking for password.
This the version of Bixby I'm on.

I saw it in there somewhere but I think you have to add it to the panel. It's not in there native. I think there was an Edge menu somewhere in the settings menu if I'm not mistaken.

Settings > Display > Edge Screen > Edge Panels (select the words not the slider). This is how you can see what panels you have available.
To install additional panels open your Galaxy Store app and select 'My Galaxy'. There should be a bunch of Edge panels that you can either download for free or pay for. I couldn't see the panel you are after but there may be another you might like.
I know how to add a new panel guys. I was just saying that Yahoo Finance panels that were available on S8 are not available on S10 (at least on my SW version). Can you check if you have it?
Yeah where the deal? Just got a S10 and it's missing. Anyone have an idea how or where to get it from.
I still have my hands on my S8. Any idea how to extract it.
It may have been killed off because Verizon said it regretted it's purchase of Yahoo and AOL and admitted that the AOL/Yahoo division was a failure. If I remember correctly, I thought I really something about Verizon deciding to shutter Yahoo.
I did manage to pull the APK. But can't get it to install. Anyone have any ideas.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/15pY8cndHUl9oakrCTJiU-0srseFMSAe9/view?usp=drivesdk
any more on this?
This was brought up in the Samsung communities last year and Samsung never responded.

Question Desktop mode

Does oneplus 10 pro support desktop mode?
Like samsung DEX mode.
I know, previous versions support it in developer mode.
But there is a new oxygenos, so I'm not sure about it...
Could you help me to make it clear?
Thanks!

yes. i don't have one yet. i'm choosing which model is right for me.
No it's just mirroring afaik. I've never seen it or been prompted with it.
On my nine pro, it worked fine under Android 11 but not 12. For 12 I can mirror the screen out, but it won't pass through data on the USB port anymore, IE my external keyboard mouse.
