S24 not updating

Basically my S24 is stuck on OneUI 7.0 and android 15 and the last security update is from April 2025 so I'm starting to get worried at this point of potential vulnerabilities. Has anyone else had this problem and how did you fix it? USA carrier unlocked btw

Traded My Pixel 7Pro for S24FE

Was this a good decision? This is my first Samsung device. I wanted the S24 base but coming from the big screen of P7P I liked the s24fe better and I don't play games on my phone. One problem- The phone can not detect 5G WiFi networks of certain channels. I had to manually set the 5G WiFi channel to 156 or something inside WiFi web portal for it to detect 5G WiFi and connect. Haven't found any other problem yet. I REALLY MISS THE PIXEL UI!!!, this is my only regret like one UI seems fine but the pixel UI was something else man the haptics matched different UI animations with different vibration like it was perfect.

Fyi I traded my pixel 7 pro (I got used) for a used S24FE, The S24fe still has active warranty status but it's from a different country (Indian version).

As a first time Samsung user any advice or tips? Anything I should change or watch out for.

Need Help! S24 plus or iPhone 13 Pro Max?

Hi everyone! I'm currently using a Samsung A52s and I'm thinking about upgrading.

I'm mainly considering either the Galaxy S24+ or the iPhone 13 Pro Max.

I've been on Android for as long as I can remember, so part of me wants to try iOS just for the experience. At the same time, I'm not sure if going for an older iPhone like the 13 Pro Max makes more sense than getting the much newer S24+.

What would you guys choose in my situation, and why?

My priorities are mainly long-term smoothness and stability, display quality, and decent battery life. My usage is pretty normal to moderate, and I usually get around 5–7 hours of SOT on my A52s.

Entscheidungshilfe Decision support S21 Ultra oder or S24

Hallo zusammen, ich brauche eine Entscheidungshilfe.

Ich habe ein Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G bei dem langsam, aber sicher, der Akku schlapp macht (wird schnell sehr warm beim laden, die Leistung baut schnell ab). Dann habe ich ein S24 5G geschenkt bekommen bei dem ein Loch im Display ist (Unfallschaden). Die Reparatur des S24 soll ca 250€ kosten. Ein neuer Akku für das S21 weiß ich nicht wie teuer und ob überhaupt möglich. Was ist euer Tipp, lieber S24 reparieren und S21 als 2./Ersatzphone behalten, oder s21 Ultra Akku ersetzen und das S24 entsorgen?

Wie lange gibt es noch Updates für das S21 Ultra?

Danke für Eure Hilfe.

If you don't understand my german Question, here it is in englishm translatet by Mistral Vibe AI:

Hi everyone, I need some help making a decision.

I have a Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G whose battery is slowly but surely giving out (it gets very hot while charging, and the performance drops quickly). I was also given an S24 5G, but it has a hole in the display (accident damage). Repairing the S24 is estimated to cost around €250. I don’t know how much a new battery for the S21 would cost or if it’s even possible to replace it. What’s your advice: should I repair the S24 and keep the S21 Ultra as a backup/second phone, or replace the S21 Ultra’s battery and dispose of the S24?

Also, how much longer will the S21 Ultra receive updates?
Thanks for your help!

My s24 battery lasts much longer after putting both instagram and whatsapp on deep sleep and turning off usage patterns

Before I had to charge around 2 or 3 times per day. But after using that tip, it now lasts like a normal phone I suppose. Any other tips that have been useful for you?

S24 in exchange for oneplus 11

Does the OnePlus 11 have a recurring Green Line issue? I have already replaced the display once because of the Green Line problem, and the battery health of my phone is now below 80%.

I am confused about whether I should replace the battery and continue using the same phone, or exchange/sell the OnePlus 11 because of the reduced battery health and the possibility of the Green Line issue recurring.

I would really appreciate your advice on what would be the better option.

S24+ Se traba y se reinicia

Buenas. Hoy comencé a tener problemas con mi S24+ versión Exynoss, en menos de una hora se ha trabado completamente 3 veces, y se reinicia solo. Y sin hacer algo "demandante" 2 veces en whatsapp y 1 en Facebook.

También he notado que hace la acción de ir hacia atrás sin que esté tocando el teléfono.

Tengo la versión OUI 8.5, recién actualicé hace unos días y nunca me había dado problemas. ¿A alguien más le está pasando y ya lo solucionaron?

Heavy Battery Drain on Samsung

Hello! I've been getting notifications on my Samsung Galaxy Ultra 24 that ExpressVPN is using a high amount of my battery. This has been happening since the recent update. Is this happening to anyone else? And does anyone have any suggestions? Besides getting rid of the service though I am so close to just going to Nord.

I orgiinally posted this to the ExpressVPN sub but no one replied in there. It was suggested that I post here too.

Moisture warning only when battery dead

When the battery is dead, causing the phone to be off, and I put it to charge, I get the moisture warning. Afterwards if I charge it using wireless charger and make the battery level 1-2%, the wired charging doesn’t complain anymore about moisture.
What to do? It’s S24.
