    Samsung ends security updates for the Note 10

    Agreed... Even the part about the Palm5! I'm not concerned about security updates at all. Be aware of where you are connected and be online savy. Standard procedure everyone should know by now. Also keep in mind that I have had surprise security updates on devices many years past their...

    Anyone still using the Note 10+?

    Gray I have bought several new devices from reputable cellular retailers on ebay. Just go by their feedback. All the devices I buy are fully unlocked U1 models. New, sealed, unopened phones. They must have surplus inventory. All the ones I have are flawless.

    Anyone still using the Note 10+?

    Absolutely! Every day. Bought a new one about a year ago and have no intentions on anything else. SD slot is mandatory and nothing they offer today has one. Don't care about updates, don't need AI for anything, pictures are great and I'm not giving up $1000 for a stripped down phone.

    Thanks for the info Mustang. Tried everything you mentioned. Still goes to normal start up. Tried disabling sound assistant since it configures the volume keys. But no difference.

    [SOLVED] Cannot boot in Recovery Mode

    I have tried the USB cable with or without the PC. Followed the sequence just as described, tried different times to release the buttons, press volume first then power, reverse of that. Yes I can get the device into safe mode.

    [SOLVED] Cannot boot in Recovery Mode

    Just tried to get in Recovery Mode on my regular S10 and same result with same pop up message. So it's an S10 thing, not just my S10 plus.
