Call & text on other devices on Galaxy M51 - Samsung Galaxy M51 Questions & Answers

Does this device support Call & text on other devices?
It's the feature that links samsung tab with samsung phones, enabling them to call without a sim card
https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00083152/
This is the official page for this feature but i can't understand if it is simply outdated or if the m51 doesn't support this feature at all.
A20 is a much cheaper phone but it is supported.
Thank you all

+1

+1 just got M51 and it doesn't have it. I had A71 before that and it supported it. In essence, the phones are almost identical, M51 has HW fingerprint reader on the side instead in-display and bigger battery. I don't get Samsung sometimes!

As far as I have figured out, Samsung devices with One UI Core don't have this feature. Samsung devices running One UI (so not the stripped down Core version) do have this feature.

Is the Galaxy S9 fully compatible with last year's Gear VR SM-R324?

Hi,
I try to figure out if last year's Gear VR is fully compatible with my new Galaxy S9 and get conflicting information on this topic. Some sites say that the Gear VR for Galaxy S8 (SM-R324) will work with the Galaxy S9, e.g. on Android Central:
"First, you can tell just by the look of the device. If the headset is black and comes with the motion controller, then it works with the Galaxy S8 and therefore will also work with the Galaxy S9. Second, you can check your headset's compatibility using your Gear VR's model number. You can follow our how-to guide to find your model number. If your device's model number is SM-R325 or SM-R324 then your Gear VR will work with the Galaxy S9."

However, there is an article on cnet.com that says:
"Samsung's newest phones, the Galaxy S9 and S9 Plus, didn't debut with any new VR hardware. They do work with the Gear VR. However, they only work with the Note 8 model released in September last year, not the nearly identical Galaxy S8 version that debuted in March that same year. We confirmed this with Samsung. The issue is all about the fit.
Apparently, the design of the S9 is different enough that attempting to put it into an earlier S8-compatible Gear VR, released in early 2017, could damage it. Samsung advises using the Note 8 Gear VR, released in September 2017, for the best fit."

Has anyone tried putting a Galaxy S9 into a SM-R324 headset? I'm asking because the SM-R324 is more favorable than the latest model (SM-R325), but I don't want to damage my phone in the process.
Thanks for your help!
STOP! All you need is one of these!
Genuine Samsung Gear VR4 2017 SM-R325 Type-C Adapter/Connector - GH98-42239A
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07C59BRLQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_zogbBb3MCJ5JM
A lot cheaper than a whole new headset! You will need a stanley knife or craft knife to shave a small bit of plastic from the adapter but this is easily done and will be apparent when you compare the old and new adapters side by side.
I had the same question just a few days ago searched on the internet for it but couldn't find anything about it apart from a tweet from samsung australia which confirmed that sm-r324 should work just fine. So i bought it anyway since it was only 30 euro's for me. That article of Cnet also made me hesitate buying the r324 variant but I've tried it and can confirm that it works just fine. It fits perfectly and does definitly not damage the device. So yes you can buy the r324 variant no need for the r325 version. At least for the normal s9 (not sure about the s9+ but doubt it's any different)
I have a sm-r324 that worked with samsung galaxy s9+ until I upgraded to android 10.
Now, when I plug in the phone Oculus does not start and all that I can see (if I open the app manually) is the picture in which there is the indication to insert the gear vr (but nothing happened).
I have uninstalled all oculus app and service and inserted again the phone into gear, then I heard the sound e installed again all the app suggested (default procedure).
Do you know if there is some trick to make reworking the gear vr or is it better to install again android 9?
Thanks

Today I received oculus for gear vr update and it is perfectly working.

Which watch?

Im completely new to Android having just ditched my company-supplied iPhone and bought an A50 (love it by the way!)
Are there any watches compatible with this phone that I can get notifications etc? I am not sure what specifications I need to check that the A50 has. The Samsung web site doesnt list the A50 as being compatible with Galaxy watch so should I just be looking at bluetooth compatibility.
Thanks for any pointers.
Yes you can use galaxy smartwatch with A50
I am using Galaxy Watch with A50. TOTAL DISASTER ! Watch and phone are disconnecting/ connecting frequently. Had no problems with same GW and Lenovo P2.
Samsung support completely useless as usual.
I have a Gear Fit2 Pro that I used with limitations paired to an iPhone but the full feature set works flawlessly with the A50 including quick replies, clearing notifications, complete message content and caller ID on every call.
It doesn't ever disconnect in the same room but I found the range pretty limited compared to the iPhone, so I assume Bluetooth range is more of an A50 issue.
After last firmware update for Galaxy A50 and firmware update for Galaxy Watch - both work perfectly in pair.

Safe to use ROMS/Recovery from Samsung Galaxy M20?

The folks over at Samsung Galaxy M20 are a bit more active since the phone came out a bit before our phone. So I was wondering, is it safe to use ROMS and Recovery from it?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-m20
The only spec differences between the two models are: sAMOLED display in M30 vs regular LCD in M20, Triple Rear camera in M30 vs Double in M20. All the other ones are the same: Processor etc.

Latest update adds One UI 2.5 to Galaxy A50s

From what I can tell the One UI 2.5 firmware update for the Galaxy A50s is presently available only in Vietnam, but as always, the rollout should expand to additional countries soon enough.
What I read is that Galaxy A50s owners can enjoy One UI 2.5 and all its new features such as Bitmoji functionality for Always On Display, an improved camera experience, new Samsung Keyboard features, SOS functionalities for Messages, Google’s navigation gestures for third-party apps and more.
It will also include the November security patches.
Cool. This are the forums for A50 though. Rumours are, it'll come in December.
Samsung support service in the US confirmed that it will come out for the A50 in December if everything goes as planned
Also update for Europe should get out A505FNXXS5BTK1 and the log file said it's 2.5
That's nice but I prefer Google's PixelUI, it's more smoother and not power eater like OneUI.
But for someone who wants to keep with stock, it's probably great news.

Device Inventory Manufacturer Not Specified

My apologies if this has been addressed in the past but I did search and search quite a bit, not only on major search engines but XDA as well and could not find any mention of this.
For the device inventory settings, when adding a device I've noticed many of the newer devices linked to their respective forums have the Manufacturer input as Not Specified
Yet the older device forums appear to consistently have that correctly filled with whichever company manufactured them.
For the Motorola forums this is pretty evident as nearly all of the newer releases have an unspecified manufacturer, my guess is the XDA forum migration may be the reason that process fell apart.
It's clearly no top of the list issue given the more pressing things needing to be addressed but since I found no way for users to submit or edit this tiny bit of device detail, I presume it's left either to forum moderators or XDA admins.
Anyway, please excuse my obsessive compulsion for maintaining complete and accurate lists.
This for instance?

Yes. Precisely this. And it's even more baffling to see as in your screenshot both the S21 and FE have it populated correctly but not the S21+ and Ultra? All but one came out the same month this year so there goes my assumption that it was a forum migration issue. It seems more likely due to whomever creates the device forum at the time isn't filling out that particular text field on the form. I'm completely clueless on that end of things.

It is fixable for sure. I remember handling a report that a user had made regarding the same issue with another device forum and Mike took care of it for me.

Alright, on to the list. These will be primarily Motorola devices. Is it enough to simply list the device as on the list or would it be easier to have a link to it? There is at least some comfort in that these are mostly huge lists now and won't be a common or frequent task, I'd hope.

{Mod edit: Quoted post has been removed}
Yes. That is what this thread is about.
Hi @MikeChannon,
hopefully this thread still functions as to request changes to the "Device Inventory" and your kind support.
The older "Samsung Galaxy S2" or "SII" (with several XDA forums) can be found two times as 1. "i9100" (add_device_id=61) without "Samsung" as manufacturer and as 2. "Samsung Galaxy S II" (add_device_id=60).
And I stumbled upon a strange error (" Oops! We broke the matrix. Someone call Neo! ") while adding a "Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra":
Adding a "Samsung Galaxy S20" via the search device link works. It is "add_device_id=1135", but I want to add "Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra". The Ultra seems to be add_device_id=1136 (As device search link "+ Add device to inventory" contains.), which surprisingly does not work.
Could it be that, if a specific device (see "Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra" or "Samsung Galaxy S II" above) is not (already) linked to a XDA forum, it will fail to be added to device inventory?
Thank you for your support.

Hi
Well the older devices werte a bit of a nightmare to add to the device inventory as there were so many variations, carriers etc. Not to mention that the device inventory is a custom add-on to our XenForo forum software and as a consequence isn't always easy to work with. For that reason I'm reluctant to change anything with the S2 / SII forums/device inventory.
For the much newer S20 Ultra what happened there is that originally there were separate forums for the S20 /\Ultra and plus versions. As these shared software it was decided to roll the forums together but clearly the device IDs were not merged.
Hopefully you can now add the Ultra version.
Mike
Hi @MikeChannon,
thank you. Yes, I now have just the whole device family (i.e. "Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra") in my inventory. Obviously, I initially didn't catch, that it is less a detailed device specification but a convient link to the related XDA forums.
As a small final cleanup, the single still existing "Samsung Galaxy S20+" would now also need its merger into the above mentioned device family/forum.
Thank you for your longstanding support.

Yes it's more just a linking to the forum (if we have one) sort of thing. It's certainly not perfect as it does not allow adding devices for which we don't have a forum.
