need advice - Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers

Hi guys i want to buy note 10 pro. But before buying i need to know something.... i am presently using note 8. There are few things which i really like in note 8 but are missing in note 10. First there is no seperate bixby key. It is incorporated in power button which i read can can be customized. There are 2 options available. Single press to launch an app like bixby and press and hold for power off menu. In note 8 bixby button can be remapped like single press to open bixby, double press to open bixby home and press and hold for bixby voice. But in note 10 there is only double press option. So is there any way to add single press option in side key customization menu ?????
2nd is related to samsung health app. In note 8 there is heart rate sensor but not in note 10 so does samsung health app on note 10 miss features like heart rate and sp02 monitor or these features are there and use camara flash ????
Pls answer me so that i can plan to buy note 10 or note 9

Regarding side button. You can customize double press (open camera, open Bixby or open an app of your choice). You can also choose out of 2 options for press and hold (activate Bixby or open the switch-off menu).
The Note 10 plus does not have heart rate sensor, nor a SpO2 sensor. Health app can receive these data from a connected wearable like smartwatch. No wearable, no heart rate in Health. Flash is just flash.

I have a note10+, before I had a 8, the only things I miss so far, from the 8 are the notif led and the 3.5 mm jack, so, for me, the 10+ is a huge improvement over the 8

3.5 mm jack is really a miss. But i saw a video on youtube that notification led is now available around front camera hole in new update

Screen Capture

Home and power buttin don't do screen captures anymore. What app did I diable to stop it from working?
1. Take a screenshot on the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 using a keyboard shortcut
To take a screenshot on the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 press the home button and the power button of the smartphone simultaneously. This key-combination must be pressed for about 1-2 seconds. Then you will see a flashing white frame around the screen and hear a click-sound that indicates the screenshot was taken. This information is also shared with you in the status bar of your smartphone.
The key combination for taking a screenshot with the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 requires a little training and a little practice, but is the most used method. Especially if you have changed from a non-Samsung smartphone to the Samsung Galaxy Note 4.
2. Take a screenshot on the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 by swiping the screen
The screenshot can be triggered on the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 by swiping the screen. This gesture must however be enabled in Android. To enable the feature on the Samsung Galaxy Note 4, you must navigate to the settings of your smartphone. In the settings, please tap "Motions and gestures" and then on "Palm swipe to capture". Activate the function by activating the controller.
You can now immediately take screenshots on your Samsung Galaxy Note 4 by wiping with the edge of the hand from right to left across the screen or vice versa .
I wasn't holding it long enough. Thanks

hmm, i found another solution, set samsung launcher back to "default" for one action, swipe, re-enable bixby button, and use long click for custom action. then move back to nova launcher
Great app, thanks <3
Coming from the S7, I wasn't used to having the extra button on the left and kept activating Bixby by accident.
The instructions for bxActions are straight forward and easy to follow, thanks. I've not got Bixby button for singlepress: flashlight, doublepress: switch ringing profile between loud and silent. I've remapped volume up and down for skipping tracks on double press and play/pause on long press, I might have to get rid of the long press because I never noticed how often I just hold the volume button to turn it up rather than keep pressing it.
I tried remapping the Bixby button with mixed results (S9 dual SIM).
1. No extra permissions: when the screen is unlocked it almost always launch Google Assistant directly without Bixby Home appearing. When the screen is locked, the Bixby Home page appears for a second and then Google Assistant is launched
2. Extra permissions: with the screen unlocked everything works ok, but when the screen in locked Google Assistant doesn't launch anymore, like the button was never remapped.
The only thing I hate about this phone is not being able to do what I want with that button. It drives me nuts. I completely disabled it for the moment.

I had this same issue; a reboot solved it.
running great on my S9+. Thanks!
This is great, I love it! I bought the pro version in the play store to support your work. Being able to hold the button with the screen off to turn the flash on is invaluable.
Everything works great so far, but no matter what I've tried, long pressing the Bixby button either results in Bixby popping up for a short moment before the action I have bound takes over, or if I disable the Bixby Service in Apps, then a notification popup telling me to enable the service pops up shortly before the action takes over.
Single press / Double press work great. But long pressing results in the issue.
Edit: Saw the part under Tips & Tricks. Trying it now.
Edit2: Disabling Bixby Voice in settings does the trick! I'm an idiot.
Meh you have to hook it to a PC to configure. I'll pass

You are awesome! Keep it up, this is amazing, working really great on my S9. Do have problems with deep sleep think, when i haven't touched my phone for a while where it doesn't work. I'd have to test more to be sure of the exact issue. But this app is amazing and I love it! Way worth the cup of coffee

Virtual Home Button?

Hi All,
On my note 9, and I think note 8, I was able to press the home button whilst the screen was off and it would com on, like a virtual button. That seems to have gone now?
Is there anyway of getting it back?
Thanks
P.S. dont know what the feature is called, sorry.
You now have a double tap to wakeup feature which you can use anywhere on the screen.
I think it's way more comfortable
Yes, my note 8 had this feature, tje haptic feed back was nice, but the present implementation is better imo

Different Region, Different Button Layout?

Just got a Korean version SM-F907N. Built quality is great, but I noticed that the Bixby button underneath fingerprint sensor doesn't work (solid, not pressable). After a little investigation it turns out that Korean version doesn't even have this button, instead they merged it with power button, or now called side key like the new iPhone.
It won't be an issue for me, but will it be a problem for any third-party ROMs?

There isn't a dedicated Bixby button on any Fold. There isn't one on the Note 10 either for that matter. Newer phones moved to mapping the power button to do different things based on a single press or double press.

Hahaha. You made my day. Fingerprint is not a button at all. Note 10 and Galaxy fold got it merged with power button.

Yeah now I know, but The Verge’s video actually mentioned this earlier said this layout is pretty annoying, so maybe during the reinforcement they changed their mind

Screen Capture does not work with the power and volume down buttons

I don't know if there is that have changed for the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra but I am not able to capture the screen of my mobile phone. If I hold the power button it goes to the power off screen (as I have configure the side keays). But if I hold power + volume down buttons, it goes the same way (power off screen). The volume down button works properly using it alone. Is there any change on the Note 20 Ultra to capture screen by buttons? Am I missing something?
Thanks in advance for any help!
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year all
I've just used volume - with power and screen captured with no issues on latest ui3 official Three UK
Eddie
Thanks for your help! I found my mistake in other forum. I just post it, just in case it happend to anyone else. I tried to hold both buttons, power + volume down. But I shouldn't hold them, just push then quickly. That didn't happen that way in my old S10
Happy New Year!
There is another option that my better half like to use to take screenshots. You can use your palm and swipe from the left edge to the right edge.
Its the option in Settings -> Advance Features - > Motion and gestures -> Palm swipe to capture
Thank you. I just registered for saying this.
I was trying to get a screenshot with my new Samsung Galaxy M23 for quite some time, with no avail.
Just clicking and letting go, not continuing to press solved it.
