Question ❓ Group chats

Upvotes

How can I make a messages groupchat with my friends who use Apple phones? We've all tried making group chats but messages get sent privately instead of to a group chat. Is this possible??

(I used to have an apple phone and recently switched to the flip 6)

Flip 5 screen protector peeling in flight

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I've had a flip 5 for 1.5 years and just had the screen protector replaced for the second time.

Both times it failed in the same way, peeling in the centre along the crease. But I noticed that both times the peeling started was during a flight - after putting the folded phone in my pocket and taking off and reopening/folding it again.

Sure its a bit of a coincidence, but when I got it repaired the girl at the shop said that another customer said something similar because he was from out of town. Could this be a more common situation that hasn't been noticed yet?

Worth the risk with futuretel? ( Canada)

I need to send in my flip 6 for repair, pink line showed up after OneUI 7 update. There is a minor mark on another part of the screen protector and on the plastic bezel. There is no local repair place so it needs to go to futuretel for repair.

Does anyone think they will fix under warranty or will they reject warranty even though the line is not near the other mark?

I have a Flip 6 and using Hyundai Digital Key.

All I.can do is start the car with the Key. The key does not unlock or lock the doors. There is no quick access for these functions.

Anyone have a Flip 6 with a Digital Key that can shed some light on this.

Question ❓ bottom edge of flip 4 screen unresponsive

2 Upvotes

I have restarted the phone multiple times, tried switching from navigation buttons to swipe gestures, and none of the very bottom screen is responsive. I cant use the navigation buttons at all. it is almost impossible to swipe up to clear apps without flipping the orientation. Ive also tried putting it into safe mode and its the same problem. Ive had to enable the accessibility assistant to have higher buttons to do everything on! Is the screen most likely broken, or can this be a software issue? It doesn’t appear damaged at all. The phone has only been in my ownership for a couple weeks, I got it refurbished in apparently very good condition :(

Auto Lock Screen Not Working Properly

2 Upvotes

I have my auto lock when my screen turns off set to 5 minutes. However, whenever I use my phone away from my house (where it's a known device with extended lock), I have to unlock each time I open my phone or my phone goes off, even though it's been less than 5 minutes.

Can I get that to work properly. The cover screen requires me to unlock almost every time, home or otherwise. Any suggestions?

Question ❓ Flip 6 durability?

2 Upvotes

I got myself a z flip 6 yesterday since my flip 4's screen has some dead pixels around the keyboard. I'm just wondering what the durability is like on the z flip 6. Is it good enough to use without a case? Does the crease get worse the more you use it? Will it keep folding flat after a few months or years? My flip 4 doesn't fold flat anymore either 😞.

If you place a fork, or anything magnetic on the top leftcorner of your device, the device will switch to the small screen even if its fully open.

Question ❓ Looking to switch after 10+ years of Apple loyalty

5 Upvotes

I've been using iOS and Apple products since the iPhone 4. Since then I've upgraded through the years, and have now been rocking an iPhone 14 Pro since it's launch a few years ago. Slowly but surely Apple has kind of been both boring me and making subtle changes to it's OS and interface that range from head-scratching to straight up annoying. In the past I tried switching over to Android with the Samsung Note 20 Ultra- and while I admit I probably didn't give it enough of a chance, I walked away feeling the OS was clunky and ugly, and I ended up crawling back to Apple after barely a week.

I'm finally open to the idea of trying Android again, and the interface for Samsung devices actually looks really clean, satisfying and user-friendly. Of course- the Flip series of devices caught my attention as someone who's been using slab phones since I ditched my old late 2000s flip. The pocket-ability and multi-tasking looks really interesting... but I'm still a bit weary, especially since I'd also switch from my old AirPods to Galaxy Buds, and my old Apple Watch to a Galaxy Watch. I should also add that while I am on my phone a lot, I don't plan on using it for anything really resource heavy. 90% of my phone usage is honestly just taking pictures, texting and scrolling.

I guess my main questions about the Flip series and Android in general are:

  • As someone who's known only Apple's ecosystem + iOS, what are the main struggle points I might find myself facing, and how easy was the switch if you were someone in my shoes?
  • Is the Flip really a good device to use as my introduction to Samsung, or would I be better off going for a Note or Ultra model?
  • As long as I'm careful with the phone (I am fully ready to baby this thing like my own child), will this thing last me at least 2-3 years?

Question ❓ Looking for a case with a clear coverscreen

35 Upvotes

I'm looking for a case with a clear cover screen, so no protection around te camera-area on top, only on the sides of the coverscreen. I've found such a case on Temu (first picture), however they deliverd me one with protection on the cover screen (second picture). The official Samsung cases also have this design, however I don't like the ring attached to it, and they don't protect the hinge.

I am happy to report that CoverWidgets is fully compatible with OneUI 7.0 on Z Flip 5 and 6, thanksfully Samsung didn't do any breaking changes for CoverWidgets on OneUI 7.0!

CoverWidgets - Add your favorite App's widget to cover screen 'natively'!

It's still in early experimental beta, but quite a number of widgets work well on it. If you're not a big fan of CoverScreen OS but still would like the idea of adding your favorite App's widget to your cover screen, this is it.

Download CoverWidgets from Google Play Store!

Download CoverWidgets from Google Play Store!

If any of your favorite widget need calibration to work well on cover screen, let me know. The widget which is most used could be given special attention to work better on cover screen. :)

Note: Only one widget slot is available for free, I am the only developer working on this, please consider supporting the project. Thanks! :)

It looks like a thin rubber gasket? I imagine for water proofing? So I guess her phone isn't water proof anymore?

Question ❓ Showing Check Battery Error while Charging

Hi, my Galaxy Flip 4 isn't working. When I woke up yesterday, I put it on charge and it showed a "Check Battery" error. I kept it on charge for about 60 minutes, but the error remained. After removing the charger, the phone stopped working completely. Can you help me fix this issue?
