New OTA BOH4 Firmware Just Arrived

Just received a firmware update via OTA (about device>Software update)
This new version is: G928TUVU1BOH4 .
I just checked the Note 5 N920T and it also got the same BOH4 OTA update.
Just cannot understand why we still have no root or twrp even though our
firmwares are just about identical to the N920T Note 5.
I wonder if anyone even tried to flash the modified TWRP in the Note 5 N920T
forum which works on the Note 5?
Oh well, I guess I will just have to patiently wait and perhaps by Christmas there
will be a compatible root procedure and twrp for my G928T S6 Edge+.
Good luck,
Have a great day everyone!

Just an FYI this is a relatively small update, 112 mb. Brings us video calling from within the default dialer. Looks to only be compatible with others that have the same update, so I guess just s6 edge + and note 5 for now at least that's what TMO eluded to in a tweet.

And here's a link to the official TMO statement regarding video calling.

Yes, saw that after I posted. Feature is on by default. Turn off/on in messaging app settings.

I got the phone last Thursday and had advanced messaging out of the box. Looks like this update was just for native video calls.

I never checked to see since I assumed it would need a update to activate like the s6 and s6 edge. Good deal now I just need the note 4 to get it so I can use advanced messaging with my wife lol

Me and the wife got the edge+ so it works with us. Also the OnCircle works too and it's pretty neat. I like how I can see when she's typing or read my message.

I just got the update too. Hopefully it fixes my battery life while on idle. For some reason since i purchased this phone "Android System" and the "Radio" would eat up my battery while on idle. My note 4 and Note 3 never had this issue.

No, the option we get in S series after taking a screenshot. Like to crop the picture, share or for taking a scroll screenshot

Yeah, missing this too. Find it strange that not all Samsung One UI devices behave the same.

Samsung statement about missing Smart Capture on A50: https://www.samsung.com/in/support/mobile-devices/galaxy-a50-frequently-asked-questions/

Well this is just annoying! seemed like a pretty nice feature. looks like we get the middle device and lose out on a feature available for a cheaper phone

Funny cos last year's A series and J series had this feature. Samsung need to pay more attention to mid rangers

I just came from a S8+ that went bust and used the scrolling screenshot a lot. Very annoyed - actually upset - to find out only after purchasing the A50 that it doesn't support Smart Capture. I had asked the sales person who said it was certainly a setting to be activated. Had I known, I'd gone for the A70 ?...
Any chance that this might be part of a future update? Has that happened to other Samsung phone models?

Of course, the Galaxy A50 supports "Smart Capture" and works smoothly, including editing, trimming and sharing. You may not be able to enable this feature. Maybe this helps you:

However, it is possible that your region may have some settings elsewhere or some features may be missing, you need to try.

Galaxy A50 no longer supports Smart Capture it seems. Neither do I remember it supporting previously btw. You'll need to use 3rd party app from playstore !

What about Samsung screen recorder that's available in S series? I think Asian SKU has that?

There is no smartcapture on latest august patch firmware

I've managed to install the smart capture apk by installing it as a system app. The smart capture option now appears in settings, however it crashes if you try and use it as in the apk they have coded in a way to stop us using it. The error for the crash of smart capture reads "Feature not supported".

OneUI 2.5 is available

Just downloaded OneUI 2.5 through ota update on my s10 lite in the Netherlands.
To bad we miss out on the pro camera options.
For now the update feels good and snapppy.

Is the update you downloaded G770FXXU3CTH4?
I heard that S10 Lite users in Spain have gained Pro functions for photos. Including shutter speeds of up to 10s and ISO of up to 1600. Can you please confirm for me? I don't know who to believe.

Yes i have the same build. It looks like i got oxm_phe (spanish) Phone.
I also have the iso 1600 and other option in your screenshot. Is That the way to check if pro modus is availible?

Yes. This is the pro mode that has been in demand for a long time by S10 Lite users.
Unfortunately, it is much more limited than the pro mode of the rest of the S10 family.

Question Slower after Android 13/One UI 5 update. Anyone else?

It seems like the phone is ever-so-slightly-slower following the Android 13/One UI 5 update.
Splash screens of various apps consistently appear for a few split seconds longer than before. In fact, at least one app that used to launched instantly now shows a splash screen for a fraction of a second before launching.
Is this just my experience, or do others see the same thing as well?

Download good guardians from the galaxy store and over the app galaxy app booster. Ran it and look again

I found that upgrading from A12 to A13 slowed my phone down. Did a Factory reset and was so much better...

Galaxy app booster? Boost all app? Google?

Thank you.
But I'm trying to figure out if the small slowdown after Android 13 update is an anomaly or if most people experience it. Do you?

My phone came with Android 13/OneUI 5 preinstalled, but I later received an update with January security patch and I started facing issues after that update.
The scrolling works very bad, its like there are some ghost touches. When I scroll thru WhtasApp/Telegram chats, photos in gallary, webpages the scroll sometimes doesn't work, just like the screen didn't even register my touch. If I try to scroll fast, the scroll stops in between, just like a ghost touch or something.
I was also facing issue with fingerprint scanner when the phone screen is off for some time, but I got it resolved by removing existing finterprints. and registering new ones.
The scroll issue is a real bummer for me. I hope it get fixed with the next OneUI 5.1 update.

In Addition to what I listed above, I faced one more strange issue today. I received the January security patch AGAIN today. It's like before, the download size, update description, all is same.
The previous January security patch update I got was installed successfully, I could see it in the software section, I am not sure why I received same update again.

Can someone here please confirm if you are able to scroll faster? I mean, I have my old OnePlus 6 with me. If I do a simple test to scroll once in a telegram chat, OnePlus scroll backs to more number of chat messages compared to S21FE. The S21FE just scrolls to few lines.
Anyone observed same issue?

Yes. the scrolling on the S21 FE is much more stiff and "heavy" than my old J series Samsung phone. In addition, many screen taps aren't noticed by the phone, requiring me to tap again.
You should report it in the Samsung member app like I did. The more people who report these problems the bigger a chance that a patch will be issued.

But you should. Do it and dont restore system options. Problem solved.
Btw you can use your phone without reset when its a small update but its a totally new android version so you must reset.

There is nothing mentioned about the image clipper feature on the update page. Update link:
Notify Update
To my understanding, it might also be related to the gallery version or the photo editor version... My phone has Gallery app version 14.1.03.1 and Photo Editor version 3.2.23.43. Do you have the same?
