WoW, bold statement to make cosidering that when mine came early 2020, it did support HD audio in dev options... and that was with software out of the box, because this device was destined to be a flagship (supposed to be) in every respect, it had stereo speakers built in, hence no more 3.5mm audio jacks because analog to digital conversion is supposed to take place in your usb c headset by akg, since early 2021 updates thats not working anymore.. neither is anything that goes into that port except the charger.. oh yeah not to mention the blatang complications UI 3.1 has conceived just to boot into bootloader for less experienced and dissapointed users, the answer is using a data cable (type-c usb headset works as a data cable as well) from your pc to your phone - connected (working or not) then just do your normal volume up and bixby/power button till the bootloader comes up...I have been noticing these kinds of telltale software issues since my 1st power up of this device, but I love it still because I know what it is capable of - and running android 11 with UI 3.1 on API 33 (APPLICATION PROGRAMMING INTERFACE) is probably possible but it was never meant for it because it is a bit old for the newer os upgrades meant for newer flagships. We are all at fault here because it was so good that we all decided to buy it so ***** late in it's reign as smartphone - king.. but we payed a lot of cash for it because it is a beast of a device...so we get that feeling of utter dissapointment when they for example : cannot force 64-bit software onto 32-bit hardware.. props to them for trying atleast, maybe another software update is coming with fixes or maybe, our greed has surpassed our ability to think logically, and Samsung maybe is keeping quiet until they make the impossible happen... till then, you guys can be glad to be even playing games on a N10 or N10+ with the latest OS updates considering its hardware architecture upon date of release... I hope this might put a bit of perspective on the side of dissapointment, as I am also on that side and just some feedback atleast, would be great SAMSUNG
