    Post Landscape mode is Available for Note8 Now!

    Finally Reddit user found an answer. To anyone without home landscape: to get this feature, all you need to do is also update Bixby Home in Samsung Apps. Then the option appears straight away. Updating Home Experience alone is not enough strangely.

    Post Work profile custom keyboard problem after updating to android 8

    I can confirm this now works on XEU Exynos too, typing on swift keyboard :) Security patch Aug 1st. Happy days. Now they just need to fix home landscape (on my unit it doesn't work, even though it's the correct app ver) and I need to use adb to add black nav bar, but that's for another thread.

    Post Note 8 rotate home screen s9+

    Hey, my Samsung Experience Home is version 9.0.10.76 and there's no such toggle in the menu unfortunately. Maybe that's a bug that I can't see home screen in landscape mode? I'm out of ideas. In the actual App Info I only have - three dots - Uninstall updates, which I did before in Galaxy Apps...

    Weird indeed. I have the same model as us, XEU (IRL/UK), same Home Ex version and lates Aug patch and yet the option doesn't show. I tried clear catche and data in Home app, nothing changed. Also I don't have the luxury to factory reset my phone again. I also uninstall Home update from Play...

    Post Note 8 rotate home screen s9+

    Same here. App won't install and there is no update on Note 8 exynos. That's a let down, since they just pushed Aug security patch. Landscape home is so handy. Also I need to apply black nav bar, but apparently this can only be done via adb. If I do this and then Experience Home gets finally...

    Post Work profile custom keyboard problem after updating to android 8

    I Have UK/Ireland note 8. Downgraded today smoothly to 7.1 and I'm enjoying Swiftkey again! I'm not testing upgrading without reset to keep it though, as I want to see how 7.1 works especially in terms of battery. Sammobile has server issues and doesn't allow free download even, I had to search...

    It says there's only 2 user reviews including mine on Samsung keyboard in Galaxy apps. I hate this keyboard. I have also work profile and in forced to use it. My IT at work has one plus 6 and no problems. 2 languages typing horrible, you can only use one at a time. If it wasn't so time consuming...

    Thread Google Chrome auto updating without permission Jun 2018

    I googled this topic extensively and got nowhere, maybe because I "googled" it, LOL. Chrome for Android discontinued bottom navigation bar, the best feature on tall phones and on mobile browsers imo. I uninstalled update on my Note 8 and got back to Chrome 64, put nav bar back on the bottom in...

    Post LG V20 India (LGH990DS): News, discussion, tricks and more!

    No loudspeaker problems at all. But main screen has indeed dark shade on top, just below 2nd display. I only notice it when reading books. It's not a big problem IMHO, but it's bad on LG side to release it like this.

    Post Camera battery drain?

    If I can get 6 hrs sot, I wouldn't worry that much about battery, but it's hard to get even with 1k phone prices. Than again... So that's approximately 60% of battery gone in 1 hour. I was using cinematic filter too yesterday. Hopefully in next few years we will see major improvements in...

    Thanks! I clean cache in 3rd party app and device maintenance weekly, no difference in camera department. Phone reset helped a lot, but it's not something I'm happy with, it's just not fast. Or rather, instant, like in iPhones.

    Thread Camera battery drain?

    I had Huawei, now Lg V20. When constantly recording videos and taking pictures phones heat up and drain battery a lot. Full battery can drop to 0 in 30-60 mins. When you are on holiday, that's not ideal. Yes, I have spare betteries, but it's gone in 40 mins if I record and snap pics. Also often...

    Thanks, this works. It also has home screen loop, which I missed a lot. The only trouble is that I cannot access Home Selector. Home screen - general - select home = unfortunately home selector has stopped. Also I never updated to UX Home 4.0 the one with app drawer).

    Post LG V20 worth getting in 2017 & which model?

    Lg v20 DS990 is below $400 on ebay. Great price. Standby is amazing, manual mode and audio superb. Battery drains 15% or more per hour with screen on, but batteries are cheap. Auto camera mode is poor, including autofocus. Great build quality, no bootloops. So if you are okay with these things...

    Apparently this kit doesn't support quick charge 3. How long does it take to charge from 0 to 100? I can get it on ebay for 60 with shipping and I really need extra battery for this phone.

    I have the same issue below secondary screen. Only noticeable on white background. Doesn't ruin reading books, it's there, but minor. I have dual sim variant. I'd be very upset if I paid launching price. All those things you only find out when you get the device.

    I'm in Europe and I bought LG V20 Asian model two weeks ago. Straight away there was update to 1 Mar security update. What's the benefit of 7.1? I'd love to see battery % on 2nd screen without 3rd party apps. Also will it improve battery life?
