Model = SM-R825F Software = R825FXXU1ATA1/R825FOXA1ATA1/R825FXXU1ATA1   A quick additional observation on Error Reporting. I was able to send another Error Report very early this morning, as in the small hours, as I was getting into my pit for the night. As usual, I plugged myself into the Blood Oxygen Saturation (%SpO2) warning and logging unit (a CheckMe O2), which gives me a Heart Rate and %SpO2 Level once it has settled down to start logging. I also do a quick check via a Finger Tip O2 Sensor, which also gives me Heart Rate and %SpO2 as well. I then check both against the GWA2, and if all agree, I know I am fine to nod off, with no signs of Atrial Flutter that I can detect via this triple pre-sleep check. I am not a hypochondriac, this is just a very simple precautionary step to avoid a needless Stroke or coming over all dead problem whilst asleep!   I am fairly sure that the recent Atrial Flutter issue that I had is actually caused by Sleep Apnoea, but it's still wise to check all is well before I embark upon another fun night of potentially suffocating myself. Such as, should I change sleeping position involuntarily because of lower limb pain making me move position and thus into a poorer position for my airway. I cannot control that when asleep, so just have to make sure I have checked all is OK before sleep, and then make sure I have the CheckMe O2 working to buzz me if my %SpO2 goes off the bottom of the scale.   In terms of Atrial Flutter, I was just thinking that a potentially useful feature for the GWA2 could be a Heart Rate Alarm that you can set at a suitable level so that the GWA2 kicks off and wakes you up if that level is reached whilst asleep. Say, 140 bpm, which is pretty high, and just below the classic 2:1 Block 150 bpm reading that can indicate Atrial Flutter. Better to wake up and be able to do something about it, than stay asleep and risk, say, a blood clot forming.   I noted that there seems to be a feature that can be set to alert at low and high Heart Rate levels, but I have not detected any warning from the GWA2, so have no idea if this works. I assume it is for Training/Exercise purposes, to let you know when you have reached a set level? No idea how it tells you however.   I am still waiting to hear from the NHS if I can be issued with a CPAP machine, so the above is just a sensible strategy to avoid hitting bigger snags. Last night, as can happen, the GWA2 was again having problems displaying the correct Heart Rate, and was again around 100% higher than the other two devices, like 107-114 bpm, against the correct 52-58 bpm. Other times, the GWA2 is fine, and will synch with the other two Devices, so it does look like Software and not Hardware. So, because the error was stable, I flashed up the Galaxy Wearable App on my SAMSUNG S10, and clicked the three lines to the Top Left, then clicked Contact Us, and then clicked Error Reports. I then selected the frequency of the error as Sometimes, and then added some Notes to help describe what was happening.   IMPORTANT: I was asked what Model I had in response to an earlier Error Report, so I now insert the GWA2's Model Number (SM-R825F in my case) at the start of every Error Report. I suggest anyone else doing this, should do the same, because this seems to be helpful to the Technical Support bods. I'm not sure if something has changed but, when I now do this, the Error Reporting also now fires up the Samsung Members App automatically. Then, when I send, I now also get a pop down message on the S10, to say please do not close the Samsung Members App because an Error Log is being collated in the background, i.e. that will be sent on when done. That seems to take a few minutes, but will update the pop down message on my S10 to thank me for submitting the Error Report and, presumably, an Error Log to go with it. This may help others to ensure that both an Error Report and Error Log get transmitted, and if you quote the Model's details along with the Error Report, that looks to be helpful as well.

@Jordanjj1991 wrote: Hi all!   Seems like it takes us getting to the 5 to 6 weeks mark until Samsung finally just do what is necessary to give you a good resolution.   After been offered a q90r as a replacement a few weeks ago they kept telling me that they didn't actually have that in stock. After I spoke to many different people from the Samsung resolutions team I have a courier coming tommorow finally to deliver me a q90r.   I am actually thinking about adding up all the hours I've spent on the phone with different departments because I think the result will be astounding. After making two official complaints over the phone I asked to speak to a manager who I was told would call me back within 72 hours. I never actually received that call!   Although I do feel like they have given me a good outcome in the end, it's all the unlucky people that don't actually get a resolution at all that I am worried about.   I'll report back here with a conclusion when I feel like I am fully satisfied with my overall outcome.    Take care all! Samsung customer service has been absolutely woeful. I've also been promised call backs but never received them. The constant chasing up is what really annoys me, it's like they don't care enough about your problem to go out of their way to solve it. Even calling you back seems like a chore for them.    Anyway, bad news for me. My replacement Q85R has developed another separate issue of itself. This is the third Samsung TV I've had since December 20th. I've wasted countless hours trying to liaise with Samsung about the various issues I've had, and now, my Q85R has this:   Sometimes it's a solid black strip like in the picture, other times its multi coloured thing lines that cover the same area. This TV was meant to be a replacement for my previous Q80R which suffered the diagonal lines issue and it only arrived at my house 10 days ago. I explained this to Samsung but as it has been more than 28 days since the original transaction date (December 18th) they can't issue me a refund even though I received the set less than two weeks ago.    Luckily, Currys were more sympathetic and have granted me a full refund. I would have thought after THREE broken QLED TVs, Samsung would do much more than they have to try and make things better for me, like offer me a replacement + a free soundbar, or an upgrade to a Q90R. But I spoke to the manager and even she was reluctant to help me and kept saying they were just following company policy. I am so angry at Samsung and I will never buy another Samsung product again.    F*%k Samsung.  ... View more

Well, I am thrilled to say that Sumsung helped fix my issue and I was blown away with their support! My HW-N450/ZA was giving me such issues, so I thought... I have an UN65MU6290 Samsung TV and the HDMI (ARC) would not work with my SB after working for a year without one issue. I have a 4 year warranty with the SB so I took them to Bestbuy and they connected them and all worked. My biggest fear was true, it was my TV and not the SB... Sooo... I plugged everything back in and while I was on line troubleshooting the issues, a "Live Chat" popped up, so I clicked it. Long story short, the support person logged onto my TV and fixed the issue! Now, everything is back in working perfect order!    Thanks again Samsung!!!! -Rick ... View more

Most third party call recorders worked fine before latest Samsung update for newer phones such as galaxy s10 s10+ note 10 note10+ a70 and so on. Those phones were fully working with call recorder from c mobile and call recorder from Appligato and many other third parties. After the latest update (January 2020) it stops recording. I became aware because unfortunately all my family uses those models and the ones that have not been updated still work fine. Same models.. just after update it stops recording.  They record a muted audio. That's the reason why we will have to move to another brand. Samsung has recently shown in their products a lack of respect to their customers ... View more

@b-c wrote: I turned off notifications and generally fiddled with settings which seemed to stop the USB connection on/off issue from waking up the lock screen, though the issue was still there, but at some point that stopped as well and at the moment the phone is working normally. I too bought from Carphone Warehouse but haven't had any boards changed. It's all a bit inconclusive and I wouldn't be surprised if the problem re-occurred since nothing I did seemed to make any difference at the time! If it is still in warranty, take back to,the vendor and make it their problem, that is what they are for after all. Best of luck What settings did you change in order to stop the notification from constantly keeping the screen awake? That's really just the biggest problem for me, as it drains my battery a lot.  ... View more

Hello Ants! Full details over on my Thread that you linked to, but I was able to send two Error Reports whilst the GWA2 was stuck showing my continuously measured Heart Rate at around 100% too high. The GWA2 seemed to be stuck doing this for around 20+ minutes, so I was able to send two Error Logs with explanatory messages in each case. The GWA2 then suddenly corrected itself, and now seems accurate again, but was definitely reading too high for a good 20+ minutes when I noticed it. HTH VikingAle ... View more

So my TV is playing through the soundbar and the TV when playing through the TV speaker. However when only on optical output it's ok. The problem is the TV sound toggles up to 100 and even when you toggle down it goes up on it's own ( very loud) the audio out icon is staying on the TV  and wont go off and the red sensor light is flickering all the time. Changed batteries in remote and switched TV off and unplugged for a few minutes. Any ideas the model number is ue55mu6120 serial no. Ob523shja03399h.   ... View more

I had the same issue. Samsung remote support reset my TV by doing a Factory reset which replicated the problem. Whilst trying to install the Stan app it showed Smart Hub Updating and Samsung Level 2 tech could not rectify this advising me to speak to Stan support. I then tried to hot spotted my TV to my phone ensuring a good signal and data were available and after a couple of attempts to search and install the Stan app I was able to install the app. It seems that the TV or smart hub are not properly connecting to the Samsung servers or DNS and by switching hotspots refreshed this. It took 5 mins connection on my phone for the smart hub to update and everything was back to normal. Apps will not install until Smart Hub completes its own update. I reverted back to my normal wifi connection and I could download more apps and use Stan normally. I was able to replicate this issue twice and resolve it twice with a hotspot to phone. Please ensure network setting are set to get the IP address and DNS automatically before hot spotting to phone. Hope this helps others. ... View more
