Well, that's damn annoying., Thanks Samsung.

 

[donm527]

I wonder if they also blocked the ability to disable the swipe left into Bixby too. :/

 

[bassplayrguy]

I was reading anywhere this is a real pain in the *** to do. And you have tho ok alot of permissions that could be potentially invasive. Is this true?

 

[katmandoo122]

Wow - that really sucks.

So Bixby isn't fully functional out of the box yet Samsung is going to block the ability to remap the button? Not a good look..

Looks like some people just can't win. I personally don't think it will last.

OH HELL NAW!! This is PRECISELY why I end up despising our corporate overlords...the move to block re-mapping of that STUPID NON FUNCTIONING FEATURE button craps on people who just want choices and options, instead of B.S. 'features' being crammed down their throats. No kidding, potential deal breaker for me! I'm glad I'll have 15 days to return the dang thing after I pick it up from pre-order.

How about actions like
Taking a screen shot?

No matter how much of a die hard people are there is always a point where they will choose to change. For some it is a exploding phone, for others it is a button on the side and someone else maybe the lack of an increased battery or curved screen. The point being is that we all have different breaking points and that is ok. No need to get all cyber warrior on anyone

 

[sydneycooper1979]

Let's make sure we are keeping the discussion civil and on topic, please. Thank you!

 

[ClintRo]

Civil and on topic is so overrated...

 

[LeoRex]

OK peeps... let's all take a step back and get our Zen on for a bit... No need to get all DEFCON 1 because someone else has a different spin on things.

 

[daddyd302]

Well you guys can forget about remapping it lol.
Samsung sends out update to prevent users from remapping Bixby button

 

[ClintRo]

We will find another work around!!!
