Help Galaxy Note 8, no internet after update.

ocnbrze
well other than a hard reset (which will trip FRP, so make sure you have your google info handy), it could be a hardware issue that coincidentally happened to occur right after the update. if a hard reset does not work and Metro could not figure out on their end......you might be SOL and will need to start looking for a new device.

i ditched my note 8 long time ago when the note 10+ came out. phones by design are meant to last 3-4 years. you will start to see more and more issues like this begin to happen more often. so maybe now is a good time to start thinking about upgrading your phone.

Should I add internal storage ?

R
All right, it seems the usefulness of this dicussion is exhausted. We've got past the point of helpful tips being shared, and into ideological territory.

I'm not willing to tell what country I'm in, for privacy reasons which should be obvious. It also should be obvious that I know how much things cost in my country. I don't need any outside help for that.

Thank you to all who contributed.

Help Several Problems With New Phone

B
Robert Watson said:
I have a brand new S10 Plus with Android 11 and the latest soft ware updates, but several problems.

Extra Screen - When I open the case there is an extra blank screen that I have to tap twice to get to the lock screen. Can I get rid of this additional screen and open to the lock screen?

Edge Panel - The edge panel is not working and the edge panel and edge lighting are both turned on in the settings.

Cover not switching screen off - When I close the cover the home screen does not switch off and stays on until it times out. This could be the same issue as the extra blank screen as opening the phone does not bring it to life and it is like the proximity sensor is not working.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Change the Opening Screen

Price D Cobb said:
Folks, Is there a way to change (and retain) the opening screen on my Samsung S10+? By that I mean when I first wake the phone up to use (phone was not off, but was a blank screen waiting for my wanting to use the phone) that screen is not something I want. As more info this is the screen that I swipe to bring up my unlocking choice. Once that is done the phone goes to what I call my home page and all is good. That screen I know how to change but this first one? I don't like it and would like to find a way to move from that. I've pulled out the rest of my hair here so thanks in advance.

I'm curious what this has to do with the Google Pixel 6 that we're trying to learn about.

In addition to @Fox Mulder's excellent explanation, let me point out that not EVERYONE who comes to Android Forums is here to learn about the Pixel 6! This is a general forum for all things Android, with logically organized sub-sections for various topics--including one cleverly named "Off-Topic."

By the way, dredging up a dead thread, especially for no good reason, is usually somewhat frowned on.
