The Galaxy S25 Pre-Release Thread

The_Chief
Unpacked is LIVE!

Admittedly, the new AI Assistant is impressive... and personal data stays ON THE DEVICE. Yes, the S-Pen is losing its Bluetooth capabilities. However, Samsung noted that fewer than 1% of all users even bothered with those capabilities. While I have long used the S-Pen button as a remote shutter, I can now do the same thing with the Camera Controller on my Galaxy Watch Ultra.

The most innovative S Pen feature on Samsung Galaxy phones is going away - but you likely won't notice

The magic wand spells and air gestures are no longer supported by the S25 Ultra's S Pen - and likely future models. Here's why.

Multiple Contacts on Phone

IHateMyTreo said:
Believe me, I'm no expert! But what I did discover in trying to solve my problem is that the menus are a bit confusing insofar as they don't tell you that there are sub menus that you can drill down to. I drilled down three or four levels and finally discovered a button that says "sync account" or not. I started unsyncing everything other than my exchange account and was able to lose the multiple duplicate contacts that were caused by having numerous accounts synced. Including accounts for Samsung, WhatsApp, etc. Each one imported a copy of the contact data, much of which was outdated.

Maybe you can disconnect by unsyncing your accounts?

I somehow discovered by downloading a file eraser, I went away and just as soon as the contacts where lingering on it, still the clone numbers on the outlook, turned to files of where I just right click to clear off the numbers, and it works! By accident.

OnePlus 13 and 13R

Well, this phone is going back. Unbelievable that some basic Android software features have been reduced or eliminated. To save memory?

The direct dial widgets were eliminated entirely. And the notes field in Contacts now has a maximum number of characters, so most of my notes can't even migrate. Plus the account settings are like trying to read chinese! Oh wait, nevermind.

RMA in hand!

Hello Galaxy S25!

Battery draining quicker than usual on Samsung A02

Milo seems like a friendly fellow which is great.

However I am here purely for Technical information and feedback.

Battery still drains in just a couple of days.

It is ok. I decided to save up to buy a new phone. The current phone hopefully will last until then.

Consider the subject / Thread closed.

Milo doesn't know dick about phones. He, much like my wife, just fakes it.

Is it possible to cast the audio track from Netflix to a chrome cast speaker (and ofc keeping it in sync with the video)?

If that's not possible, what is then the best solution to make Netflix playing sound on a portable speaker?

i have an outdoor projector that projects onto my porch. i have my chromecast hooked up to it. i also have an amazon echo speaker that i use for sound. works great!!!! so you should have no issues using a bluetooth speaker with chromecast.
