I see another app call Syncios Samsung transfer. Any suggestions on good protective cases. Thinking of getting Otterbox Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk I use otterbox. Over the years, I have decided I need a phone hanging on my belt all day. I like the otterbox as it grabs onto my belt really good and does not pop off when doing something unusual. It might not be as pretty as some other cases, but it sure is protective. I have no knowledge of Syncios Samsung App. You will need a screen protector that is not part of otterbox. I bought two at Best Buy that would not stay on the phone. They kept coming off. Not sure what brand they were, but I would never buy them again. I bought two replacements at Wal-Mart and so far they are ok. They were a different brand. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking of getting Otterbox Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk If you want to maintain thinness and the ability to show off your phone while keeping it protected I'd suggest a CrashGuard bumper from RhinoShield and one of their tempered glass screen protectors and back protectors. The screen protectors a 9 on Mohs hardness scale so they don't scratch easily and they're very shatter resistant. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's never happened before. At this point the next update has to be VoLTE or they are waiting for the final outcome for the merger before any more software updates go out.

This phone has never went this long without a update before. I guess after it’s first birthday they dial back updates. But that doesn’t explain why the Note 9 has also not been updated since April.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travisc Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 I had an update on my S8 last week with the May security patch. My wife's S9 is also not seeing anything.Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnjeepmale Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 I got my S9 device to replace the S7 and getting 'please contact Sprint to unlock device' when I put the S7 SIM in the S9. Sprint tells me I need new SIM because it's not compatible. Thought they both have the same SIM.

mnjeepmale Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Thanks for that information. I went ahead and ordered the SIMOLW506TQ sim card for my phone and will be here tomorrow. I hope that allows me to activate the phone and move my number over to the S9. Before I bought the phone I contacted Sprint with the IMEI # and they said that it's cleared to be activated. Since I bought the phone, I've been trying to use the S7 sim card, they are telling me that the phone is locked and to return the phone. They said it hasn't been active in 50 days. I'm wondering if they are talking about sim unlocking. I hope once I get the new sim I can activate this phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livetaswim06 Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 I keep hearing about the June patch finally making it to some phones. Yet here I am with April still being the most recent. This is really quite annoying. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is really quite annoying. Yeah I don’t know what’s going on. The Note 9 just got the May patch last week. And the S9 they just forgot about. How is the S8 seeing more support than its successor?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G977P using Tapatalk Yes, very odd about the s9 series. I'm wondering if they find out about the data drops on the s10 with the volte updates and holding off until all the s10 models are fixed.

chamb Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Just got August update on UNLOCKED Galaxy S-9. Can not find any place to turn on VOLTE. Looks like we did not get any better aggregation options. Actually, I see NOTHING changed or added on a quick look.
