I say give it a week or something. With this new 2021 models announced yesterday, they'll be in stock soon from most of not all networks.

Finally.. After almost a full month since my original delivery driver was hijacked I received my buds and tag today. Been missing out.

It shouldn't. It didn't change my CSC. still says mine is XFV even though I flash XFE. My S10 was also fixed and warranty was still in place after flashing XFE on it. If you want to be extra careful, you could flash XFA whenever you want to take your phone in for a repair. But if you go...

I manually install the updates via Odin. On the sammobile server (I use it to check for updates but use Frija to download them) . XFE has the latest updates but both XFA and XFV are still 2 updates behind. So I got the phone from Vodacom and have been flashing XFE on it since 24 Jan.

It took me 8 days to get an sms with a link to choose my preferred colors for the Buds.

With regard to the Care+. It is a completely separate benefit so yes, you can skip it entirely. Just remember if you want it. You'd need to get within 30 days after your phone was purchased/ordered. I had insurance on my S10 and they were really sketchy with the repairs. They seemed to work...

They apparently only expecting new stock of the Buds next week, they don't have any more to send this week. I was told by the last who is helping me reclaim the goods that never got delivered due to the hijacking of the courier driver. Not exactly sure how true this is because as we all have...

They pretty much don't. Rather use the ref they emailed to you and track the delivery on Courier IT as the tip given to us by @T-BOM in an earlier post.

Yeah seems that way. Heard one was hijacked at one of my former colleagues estate entrance some few weeks ago as well. I'm just bummed I need to wait longer for them now. FOMO is on high. Had to call Samsung to request a replacement. Don't know how long that will take. Looks like there was no...

Now I am jealous... Mine say missing freight. Turns out the driver was hijacked on the way to deliver to me.

Thanks for the tip. Checked mine. Was supposed to be delivered yesterday. Nothing so far. Called the Courier IT guys and they are offline, so they can't check. Said they'll call back one they're back online.

Vodacom has a few. Some clear ones and a lot of UAG ones. If you're in jhb, Samsung Mall of Africa also had a few though they were priced insanely. I got this from Vodacom Eastgate. Also found it at Vodacom Mall of Africa and Vodacom Menlyn (it was being sold for R499 at Samsung store Mall of...

I got great battery for the first few days. Then software updates happened and started losing that hecticly. I averaged 6h30 before of SOT. Then after the updated I now get 4hours, but turns out it may not even the The software updates. Only this morning did I figure out one of the culprits, I...

I use frija... https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/tool-frija-samsung-firmware-downloader-checker.3910594/ It gets from official Samsung servers and is not throttled..

Not from them or anything. Think I'll have to ask in store.
