Updated my Note 8 to Oreo and Touchwiz 9 on AT&T and as others have said, half the keyboard functions are missing (GIF. stickers, screenshot, etc). WTF? What is the point of doing this other than pissing us the hell off? Are we ever going to get it?

That's weird, I have tmobile so no official update yet, but I've been using the leaked build for weeks and the keyboard features are there. Why would they do that?

Are you referring to these?

[missionsparta]

Yes. on AT&T they removed half of the new features for the keyboards. The GIF thing really pisses me off because that is what I was most excited about with TouchWiz9.

[Kendahl Titcomb]

hand it to att to remove stuff on a build for a great phone...I remember when they removed settings features on the Note 5...just because..that's why I hate those guys

[toenail_flicker]

that certainly stinks

[aldo82]

I don't understand why carriers would remove something. I can understand a carrier specific version having an extra feature - such as Volte on the EE firmware in the UK but the effort taken to remove something just seems madness. In what way would the keyboard functionality affect the at&t network? Unless they don't want people sending gifs!

I'm on AT&T Oreo and I have those items shown in the screenshot on my keyboard. I don't use them but they are still there.

[Note8uzer]

I'm on AT&T and they are there for me. Did you check under the settings?

[DmDJ61]

I have them on AT&T in message app.

[missionsparta]

no....GIF is missing in that screenshot. as well as stickers. etc. see if you have the GIF option available. I have checked in settings and it is not there.

If they don't want GIFs sent, then they better shut that option down on iPhone also.

This is what my keyboard looks like. Am I missing things? I've been using Gboard but am trying out this again

there should be a GIF option.

[convergent]

I have them on my ATT Note 8... of course IF I pick the Samsung keyboard. If I pick a different keyboard then they go away. I know its a dumb question, but did the folks missing it use a different keyboard.

No he mean the stickers and the gifs buttons. I was looking for those feature as well. It gives me 1 more reason to hate at&t.

Although, the videos of people showing the features are s8 / s9 owners. So I thought it was only for the new phone s9. Can someone verify this if you have a different carrier with note 8?

[strikeIII]

Yeah I get the options above the keyboard but no gif option. I don't use the Samaung keyboard anyway but stupid that they remove features.

[missionsparta]

Problem is, if you use a different keyboard you can't use the pen to write. AT&T screwed us again.

[missionsparta]

After talking to Samsung, it is AT&T that shut the dam features off. It also appears the features shut off are all the features that use more data....at the same time the same features have been left on the iPhones and they don't seem to have a problem with it. So the option is either turn those back on so every ok next can use them, or send an update shutting those features off on the iPhone. this isn't only some of the features for your paying customers and not for the other half of you paying customers. Tired of this crap.

Good luck with that. AT&T would get sued by Apple, and rightly so, if it tried that.

Well in the same front...Samsung would be suing AT&T.

[tadpoles]

Well in the same front...Samsung would be suing AT&T.

So...is Samsung going to sue AT&T with any success? That seems...seems...unlikely.

[missionsparta]

This is absolutely ridiculous.

[chocokat]

This is absolutely ridiculous.

I understand your frustration. Hopefully they'll add it later.

[QWKSNKE]

I am on Verizon and I don't have any of those options aside from emojis
