| Subject | Samsung One UI 7 Update |
| Message-ID | <slrnvvt37n.lu.extraextra@news.local> |
This morning I awoke to a new launcher, and I hate it. I feel I'm not usually as sensitive to these kinds of updates as others are - the last major instance I can recall bothering me to this degree was when Microsoft did what they did with Windows 8. To me, it sure seems like they're trying to make it look like an iPhone. I'll withhold my commentary on that one. PSA - to recombine your notification tray with Quick Settings, take these steps: 1. Swipe down on the Quick Settings panel 2. Click the pencil 3. Click "Panel settings" 4. Choose the "Together" option - this will restore the old functionality It's too bad the bootloaders are locked on US model Samsung devices. This update has pushed me over the edge - I'd be installing a custom ROM as we speak, if it were an available option.

As far as I know, most if not all bootloaders are locked, not just on Samsung devices and not just only on US models. An unlocked bootloader is a gigantic security risk, because it doesn't only allow *you* to install other system level software, but also *anyone else* (thief, someone who finds your lost phone), who can then get access to your personal data. FYI, there are on-line - paid - services which can unlock the bootloader of most phones. I used one to unlock the bootloader of my stone-age Huawei Ascend Y300 phone. That said, I wouldn't do that again for my current - out of update-support - Samsung Galaxy A51, unless it became unusable/too_old and I couldn't afford a replacement. > This update has pushed me over the edge - I'd be installing a custom ROM > as we speak, if it were an available option. You might want to check if there's a custom 'ROM' for your particular model phone. LineageOS probably has the widest range of supported models.

Bootloader unlocking is possible on international model Samsung devices through the "OEM Unlock" option in Developer Options. Other devices really vary by manufacturer/region/wireless carrier. > An unlocked bootloader is a gigantic security risk, because it doesn't > only allow *you* to install other system level software, but also > *anyone else* (thief, someone who finds your lost phone), who can then > get access to your personal data. This is a good point, and I agree with you to quite some extent. However, I still think the option should be available - and could be made available - for those who "know what they're doing". > FYI, there are on-line - paid - services which can unlock the > bootloader of most phones.

I can't imagine any of these paid services can do much that isn't already publically available. And all discussions I've read on XDA Developers and elsewhere are pretty adamant that US model Samsung devices cannot be rooted/have a custom ROM installed in any way, shape, or form. I would expect mention of these services if they were able to do it. I also certainly would not trust any of these services. >> This update has pushed me over the edge - I'd be installing a custom ROM >> as we speak, if it were an available option. > > You might want to check if there's a custom 'ROM' for your particular > model phone.

Installing a custom ROM requires unlocking the bootloader unfortunately, otherwise I'd be doing that and not complaining about it on here :)

My Samsung Galaxy A51 SM-A515F (SM-A515FZKVEUB to be precise), bought in The Netherlands, indeed has that option. > > An unlocked bootloader is a gigantic security risk, because it doesn't > > only allow *you* to install other system level software, but also > > *anyone else* (thief, someone who finds your lost phone), who can then > > get access to your personal data. > > This is a good point, and I agree with you to quite some extent. > However, I still think the option should be available - and could be > made available - for those who "know what they're doing". I've seen many posts from users complaining about not being able to unlock the bootloader, who did not seem to know/realize the consequences. But as long *you* know what you're doing, all is fine! :-) > > FYI, there are on-line - paid - services which can unlock the > > bootloader of most phones.

I didn't/wouldn't either, but in my case it was try-or-dispose.

Catch-22. Both conditions have to be true.

Before bying this particular model, I studied the needed/available (2G/3G/4G) frequency bands in detail, because I needed to use the phone in EU countries in Europe and in Australia. Australia's main provider (Telstra) with the widest coverage, uses some quite 'special' frequency bands (to get that wide coverage), so I had to be sure my phone had those bands. Most webshops did not give those details, but my main webshop mentioned the exact/full product numbers and Samsung was one of the few brands which mentioned these exact product numbers. So I could look at the webshop site for a candidate and then lookup its frequence bands on the (Dutch) Samsung site. FYI, not that it is of much help, because my phone is already a few years old, but my phone (see above) *does* work in the US. Tested on my 2023 trip to the Indy 500 (Chicago to Indianapolis and back). > >> This is a good point, and I agree with you to quite some extent. > >> However, I still think the option should be available - and could be > >> made available - for those who "know what they're doing". > > > > I've seen many posts from users complaining about not being able to > > unlock the bootloader, who did not seem to know/realize the > > consequences.

It > > worked and was not expensive, IIRC 4 dollars. > > Now I'm very curious what your use case was for this! The Android version (of my stone-age Huawei Ascend Y300 phone) was too old (4.1.1) to be usable (and it was too small (4GB Internal Storage)). So I wanted to use it as a guinea pig to try to install a 'new' version of LineageOS, with the intention to then install LineageOS on my slightly newer/better (then-)current phone. But during the process the current phone kicked the bucket, so I had a useless phone and a dead phone, so I bought the Samsung A51. Some technical problems can be solved by money! :-)

Tested on my > 2023 trip to the Indy 500 (Chicago to Indianapolis and back). A phone can work in the USA and not have all the bands. It will just not work in some places, which can be important or not :-) Ok, I did not actually travel on the USA, I travelled on Canada, and just one tiny USA island with a castle in a river. I would think both Canada and USA use the same bands, though. -- Cheers, Carlos.
