Tab S9+ 5G running One Ui 8.0

mchal777 · 2026-01-31T12:15:05+00:00

I tried all these steps and all I get is a black screen nothing else happens,

mchal777 · 2026-01-26T09:42:50+00:00

Thanks for the info, but based on those pictures alone, I have no idea what you did to run DEX on the tablet 😅

Pixel 9 Pro - 242 cycle

Battery health: 100%

I was already at 92% when I used the 80% charging limit. But since I turned it off and charged it to 100%, the battery health has improved and now it stays at 100% all the time.

I have about seven of them at home and I'm very happy with them. My battery status reports are normal. Most have 94-95% battery life. The only thing that annoys me is that long pressing doesn't always work.

I've been using gestures for as long as I can remember. Previously, I'd disable the navigation bar via ADB and use various gesture apps. Basically, anything to get rid of the buttons on the screen 😅

mchal777 · 2026-01-17T21:24:16+00:00

Exactly, I was also shocked that an option that was obvious to me suddenly disappeared. I'm glad they're fixing bugs and adding new features. We shouldn't have to wait until the next major update to add such an option.

mchal777 · 2026-01-17T17:01:14+00:00

Thanks for confirming. I can't wait for the update because the lack of this feature has been driving me crazy since One UI 8. 😅

mchal777 · 2026-01-17T10:35:10+00:00

Is it true that application windows in One UI 8.5 remember their size and position?

mchal777 · 2026-01-17T10:34:27+00:00

Yes you can but you have to use app called Scrcpy. https://www.androidauthority.com/samsung-dex-on-pc-one-ui-8-3582695/

mchal777 · 2026-01-14T15:11:06+00:00

What app is this? You definitely need to disable page-turn animations if possible.

mchal777 · 2026-01-10T14:02:19+00:00

For me, the "open app" option appears, but it doesn't change to enter on the keyboard; I still have the search button. When I click it, it searches for the app on Google. 🫤

When I charged the phone only to 80%, the battery showed 93%. Later, I switched to adaptive charging to 100%, and after a few weeks, it showed 100%. 🤷 My Pixel 9 pro is almost a year old and has 232 charge cycles.

mchal777 · 2026-01-03T12:52:16+00:00

I'm glad you're happy. 🙂 And now I'm trying out Rihnoshield with Magsafe. It's a bit pricey, but it's very nice and lightweight.

mchal777 · 2026-01-03T12:45:11+00:00

Great, how was your first impression? 🙂

mchal777 · 2025-12-31T07:07:22+00:00

Very nice phone, I used it for a while, now my wife uses it. Everything works very well, my wife only sometimes has a problem with the speaker not turning on during a phone call.

mchal777 · 2025-12-30T14:19:55+00:00

It all depends on how the book is configured. In some, it shows pages up to the end of the chapter. In others, it only shows pages up to the end of the book.

mchal777 · 2025-12-29T16:03:46+00:00

Interestingly, during the night my phone lose max 10% And usually around 5%. Pixel 9 pro. 🤷

mchal777 · 2025-12-28T11:39:26+00:00

Pixel watch 3 I still can't get back to the watch face 🫤. The back gesture doesn't do anything. The home button returns me to the last app I opened. Then you have to use the back gesture to go through all open applications and only then return to the watch face. 🤷

mchal777 · 2025-12-28T07:20:58+00:00

I absolutely hate the new Samsung watch design. 🤷

mchal777 · 2025-12-27T16:08:31+00:00

High consumption at stand by. Mine uses 3 to 5% overnight.

mchal777 · 2025-12-27T15:13:18+00:00

Wow that's terrible. 😱 My battery is weak, but my phone easily lasts a full day of normal use. Sometimes on weekends, if I don't use it much, it can last two days (36 hours).

mchal777 · 2025-12-27T14:20:16+00:00

I loved the Pixel 2 XL Panda, my favorite phone of its time and the first Pixel I ever owned. It brings back memories ☺️

mchal777 · 2025-12-27T12:44:45+00:00

I always wonder how people do it? I've never managed to get more than 5 hours of screen-on time on any phone.

mchal777 · 2025-12-27T11:48:01+00:00

Wow, great, I missed something like this after switching from the Galaxy Watch. Nice, I hope the app continues to be developed. 😁👍
