Your phone has some malware installed - some crappy games?

The popup occurred while using Facebook chat... maybe passed on from another user...no crappy games used or installed here. Just seemed to be a coincidence with the pending Android update that has been put on hold.

 

 

 

EDIT: I did a search on

 

Warning: Your is severely damaged by 13 Malware

 

Seems it is a common scam designed to get you to follow a link.

 

 

 

Further EDIT: using McAfee and Samsung Malware check - App Protection - Scan Phone - No Threats Found - Happy.

The article says the schedule was updated, not that the rollout was resumed.

Ive been tooing and frowing with this purchase as its likely my own personal. I really want a top notch Camera system, but what the Pixel is missing is a flagship level SoC power. 

So Im looking at the S24U, I note they are all snapdragon SoCs with the Ultra, but it appears to me Exynos for the other models and A series has improved also.

Will I be let down by the Camera ecology on the S24U? Its as good as the Pixel 9 Pro?

When GSMarena rates its review at 4.6/5.0 I pay attention, it doesnt get much higher than that.

I take mostly Landscape and Macro with a phone, but with its plethora of options Im sure to take some street photography and portraits on my way to Europe.

I do like that it also can be used in DEX mode which means I dont need to take a laptop where I am going. Has spare screen and KB at my destination.

If  its the quick panel when you drag down on home screen you now need to  swipe down on the right hand side then swipe down again and in there you can use pencil at top to edit it then top of edit screen you can go to panel settings and you leave as is or set to together which makes it same as before. It took me a whole day to find this out and couldn't use my torch(very frustrating as could only use Gemini on side button to restart phone and torch) .

 

Hope this helps

Yeah took me 2 days to figure that out to get it back to how it was. I'd also like to go back to side scrolling for the apps but looks like you can only do that with a custom random order and not keep it alphabetical which I had before.

I thought some of the new features were shown when the new One UI 7 started up.

 

However, this video may help.

 

One UI 7 has TRANSFORMED the S24 Ultra - YouTube
