September is out for AT&T locked (and my son's unlocked on AT&T got it too). It is OneUI 5.1 as well.

I just got an update on AT&T. Still August 1 security patch which I thought I already had, so I'm not sure what is different. By the way until last month I had not gotten any updates since June 2022. I ended up putting in my old (inactivated) sim and checking for updates. After it downloaded...

For me the problem seems to be worst when I am sweating at all, and caused by the emergency dial screen (all other lock screen functionality is disabled). So similarly, I have started using a flip case when doing yard work. Works perfectly, but that style of case is too inconvenient for me to...

Wow, I haven't even gotten the July AT&T update yet. Prior to June of this year I seemed to be getting them about the same time as others reported.

It looks to me like their trade-in program is really separate from the purchase, which is quite different from the usual programs. You don't get any discount up-front, but you get a payment afterward, correct? Here's a quote from their FAQ about what happens if you change your mind and don't...

I think I checked yesterday and it wasn't out yet on AT&T, but it is now (S20 FE).

I just got August on AT&T yesterday.

Samsung assumes that users just prefer the oversaturated colors - and no doubt, by and large, they do. Have you tried shooting in raw? It's an extra step to convert them to jpeg or whatever, but you would have control over that process, so it is worth it when it's important.

I have the same problem with 2 other apps - Life360 and Hangouts. My global notification sound is silent. Don't want to turn off the notifications, just have them vibrate only.

This makes me think it has something to do with Samsung Messages rolling out Google RCS support. Perhaps if some of you have this and some don't, there would be an interoperability problem. Look in your settings in Messages to see if you have "Advanced Messaging" enabled, and turn it off (for...

I think the news here is that Samsung is turning on Google RCS support to its own app. The reference here may be that Verizon is rolling that out, not their own. Right now, I get RCS between myself on AT&T and someone on Verizon, both of us with carrier-branded S20FE's using Google Messages...

Yeah that was the update to roll back to version 48, that I haven't installed. With any luck, your phone is in the same boat as the FE and a new release > 50 will work for all of us.

Mine just downloaded today. I'm a little on the fence over installing it having read about all the features that have been removed or broken and other problems. How is it working for you that've installed it?

Yeah, I wish that Samsung had made some sort of effort to suggest turning it off for your "home" SSID, where it arguably has no positive value.

When I first got my FE I had the same thing. This is why I mentioned carrier services. Installing that didn't help initially... but after an update in late November or early December, suddenly I had chat features. Now, the version of carrier services I have (50) caused problems with regular...

Are you using any kind of ad blocking on your wifi network? I got a new wifi system with ad blocking/threat protection and I found that I had to turn those off. Somehow the wifi system thought the address where the MMS data had to be downloaded from was some kind of threat or ad (it's a closed...

I believe a little of both. I think some of the (US) carriers first had carrier-dependent setups for a while and may still be in place. But lately, google has rolled out RCS support in google messages - I've been reading announcements of it being available in different countries over the past...

Are you comparing it to other S20 models, or to something else? Samsung definitely has some characteristic processing that some love, others hate. Coming from another manufacturer can definitely be an eye-opener. At least you can shoot in raw and fix things up yourself when it's important.

Good that some info is finally coming out about the FE to stop some of the speculation ("it's included in the other group of S20 models", "it is not going to get it till next fall" and so on). I just looked in the Members app at the Notice about the upgrade and it now lists the FE 5G release...

Not fixed for me, but much better after Nov. patch. No phantom touches, no "touches instead of swipe", and only one or two "dead areas of the screen" (not lasting very long) in a couple weeks. I still get the "N-shaped traces in touch screen test app" issue, but that never affected me in real...
