Galaxy Note 8

Nice, I just added my Pick n Pay Smart Shopper card.

What i found is very convenient, is that even when you're lockscreen is on and phone "sleeping"/ screen off, you just swipe up from bottom edge of screen and Samsung Pay opens.
Also on Desktop screen of phone you just swipe up.
I have Nova Prime and Samsung Pay gesture working fine.
No need to actually select app to open. Just swipe up and Samsung Pay is ready.

That is fantastic. I have signed up, unfortunately I am with FNB so have to wait until they support it.

Best to nudge FNB on Twitter.

The Samsung Pay app has a ready message. Think the fnb rep is rbajacobs on Twitter last I knew.

Erica Griffin still very happy with the Note8, interestingly enough she seems to be happier with its Camera vs. S9 range in certain areas.

I'm also still very happy with my Note8. I'll probably keep mine for at least another 3 years.

Really... Wow you have great willpower.

I used my Note4 for two years and it's still going strong with its S7 Edge ported firmware. I'll probably be doing something similar with my Note8 once I get the courage to root it. I like tinkering with my devices...

If i could get any device back it would be a s7e in coral blue. Wow you brave to root.

You are very strong man

I to am very happy with my Note8, so much that I am cancelling my 2nd contract when it comes up for renewal, however, next year I am definitely getting whatever it's successor is called.

Just got the update for Samsung Experience Home that brings landscape to the Home screen.

I'm trying to download the latest Note 8 Firmware from Sammobile.
I'm not a premium member.

When I click on "Wait and Download", I get the Pop-up that counts down then when I click on Download, nothing happens.

Anyone else have that problem?

 

[Awesum]

No

 

[Piesang]

Anyone who will be able to download it and share it with me via "We-Transfer"?

Note 8 Voda firmware.

 

[Awesum]

Can't you get it OTA?

 

[Piesang]

Nope, the latest update doesn't show.
My Note is on March Patch.

 

[Tsepz_GP]

This just happened lol. Awkward.
