Help What's wrong with my phone

He ninja'd me, but more or less this. In my experience it will charge veeeeeery sloooooowly until the charge level reaches a safe level as I said above.

^^ Agreed. That's what I was trying to remember. What the OP is describing has occurred with mine severally (?)
There should be life in it yet depending on it's history and use, but can't know for sure.
It's definitely not an old device, my shampoo bottle is older than that, but I guess anything over 2 years is still suspect, sadly.

S21 not yet received android 12 update

Hi all.

I live in Belgium and bought an S21 5g (international version) from the US back in June. I was receiving security patches as and when they were released. Now (Dec 15th) I am still on the patch for October and still haven't received the android 12 and one UI 4 update. Is anyone else in this boat, had anyone found any literature on when we might expect the update or if there might be an issue. Current Software version is G9910ZHS2AUIN.

Any help or info would be greatly appreciated.

That's actually the Hong Kong(SAR), Qualcomm Snapdragon variant of the S21 you've got there. although it will work internationally no problems. I believe Samsung haven't rolled out Android 12 for the China S21 Snapdragon variants yet, including HK and Macao. And if you bought it in the US and not HK, then it was a grey import there.

Also FYI Samsung Belgium many not be able to deal with warranty claims for any issues on Snapdragon devices that were intended to be sold in China, etc. The EU countries get the S21 Exynos variants.

Help Alarm will not set for today??

My phone recently downloaded and installed an updated version of Android, and I was not familiar with how it was setup, but basically, I just had to go to the Alarm page, and click the icon to the far right of the time set for the alarm, and there i was able to click off of the dates I did not want, which left only yesterday's date for the alarm, and it worked out....
Truthfully, I was guilty of not reading the handbook I suppose!! :oops:

*I have subsequently disabled the feature to automatically install updates on the phone now to avoid this kind of stupidity in the future*

Sorry to waste everyone's time though
