Assume this is the update that ruined samsung my files copy/move files portion? If so, hold off as long as you can if you use my files and have to move files a lot.

I just updated and now in Samsung dex everything is stuck in full-screen. Which makes it almost useless.

I was so happy thinking this update would fix my constantly dropping Bluetooth and Wifi. Downloaded and installed. Restarted phone. yay! bluetooth and wifi came up....then an hour later....(cue spongebob meme) wifi and bluetooth randomly turn off in the midst of a phone call. Tried restarting phone...nope...back to old self.  So much for hope.


Samsung - this is a known ongoing problem - why won't you issue a fix? Is it because you are trying to force us to upgrade our phones? In one of Samsung's own post - they admit they know it is a problem. Yet they have not provided a update or fix. At home, I have blazing fast WIFI that my whole family gets to enjoy but me. I am forced to use data and while i have unlimited - i get throttled (that doesn't sound good but that is the correct term).  At the gym...I have to pray to the bluetooth gods my phone will give me bluetooth so I can pair my Samsung Buds with my samsung 21 Ultra. 

Sure these may seem like "first world problems" but i paid for a phone (and it wasn't cheap) to use all of these services. My wife's Pixel works great with no issues. I gave my daughter my old Samsung 10 and that still works fine.
