    One UI 8.0

    I think that what you downloaded was the latest security update (there is normally one each month and there have been 3 so far). Your Flip 7 came with One UI 8.0 already pre -installed when you got it.

    How to remove tight case

    Removing a good properly fitting case is always hard! Try using a hair dryer (on a low setting) to help loosed the glue from the adhesive strips that were on the case and very carefully pry one corner of the case.

    No notification on lock screen

    I get the orange dot when I wake the cover screen (I don't use AOD). Don't know the setting as it just came over when I transferred everything from my Flip 6. Sorry.

    Can't Add Google App to Multistar Launcher Widget

    After you select your apps for the launcher in Multistar, click on the phrase "Enable Launcher Widget" at the top of that page. It's not obvious that this activates the Launcher, it just looks like a heading! Also, you do get the Launcher as a widget page in your cover screen you may have to...

    Belt pouch?

    My Flip 7 just arrived and yes, it fits easily in the belt pouch that I have been using for my Flip 6 (and the 3, 4, and 5 before it!). The phone is a little bit thinner and slightly wider than the 6, but not much difference so it easily fits in the pouch!

    Belt pouch?

    I have used the same belt pouch for the Flip 3, 4, 5, and 6. UPS says that my Flip 7 will arrive later today. So, I'll let you know then if the same pouch works!

    ZF7 Delivery thread

    On its way. UPS estimates delivery on Thursday. I also received my return label (via email from Samsung) for my trade in. The new phone is coming via UPS and trade is going back via FedEx. That's the same procedure they used for the last couple of years. I'm sure that is based on the separate...

    ZF7 Delivery thread

    As someone who makes frequent online purchases, I know that shipping labels are often created by the shipper (Samsung in this case) several days before actually giving the package to UPS/FedEx/DHL etc. It's very common and just part of their shipping prep.

    Who's ordering Flip 7

    We'll let you know when we actually have the phone in hand. I had the Flip 3, 4, 5, and 6. The crease was a little better on each one. That said, the crease has never really bothered me. I don't even notice it in my daily use.

    May 1 Security Patch Update

    Got it yesterday. There is also a Google Play system update so be sure that you do that as well. (The Google Play system will still show April 1, after the update.)

    Separate Notification and Quick Settings panels is terrible

    You can also adjust the space for each swipe in Good Lock. I rarely use the quick settings panel so I have mine set to 80% for the notification panel and 20% for the quick settings panel. With that, I can open the quick panel by swiping down in the upper right corner (essentially just above...

    Separate Notification and Quick Settings panels is terrible

    There is another subtle change to the Notification panel that I do not like. I am a big fan of Routines and use several. I tend to clear my notifications after I have seen them, sometimes all at once (I am retired so don't get as many as I used to!). Prior to the One Ui 7 update, when you...

    It's not hard. There are several good YouTube videos showing how to do it. Search YouTube for Z Flip 6 How to Use Any App on the Cover Screen.
