If you are sorry, and you made multiple posts, go delete the duplicates, and don't keep posting on the same issue unless you edit one of your posts to add something. @GaryB82 has told you to post in the beta community and you should do so and then delete all your posts in the main community.

So, if you still have the beta software, did you report the issue with Samsung Wallet in the beta forum?

realaud · ‎09-07-2025

When you signed out of the beta, did you uninstall the beta software? If you did, you might have to uninstall and reinstall the Google Wallet plug-in for the watch. If you did not, you would have to uninstall the software. Check which version of the watch software you are currently running. Any time you have to reset the watch, you have to reconfigure Samsung Pay, and I believe uninstalling the beta software requires a reset of the watch.

It is not scamming to know, through experience, what the usual release time is. Samsung could randomize the release times but, apparently they don't. It's usually very early in the morning or the wee hours after midnight. Someone usually posts something when it's up and open. But, it's the same luck of being in the right place at the right time. If you are not lucky enough to see the beta banner, you probably won't seen the posts either. It's rather insulting to call those people who get into the beta scammers. Does everyone who wins a game cheat? Do people who have an edge of some kind in a game win? Sometimes yes and sometimes no. Having an edge is not a guarantee.

Fair? Is life fair? It's not fair I haven't won the Powerball yet. People learn how to game the system, any system. That's how scalpers scarf up all the tickets. It's no different with any product test, beta test, etc. Early bird/persistent bird gets the worms. And, sometimes, it's just a matter of luck, opening the app at just the right time.

realaud · ‎08-26-2025

If the same people do all the tests it's because they are quick on the draw and probably also know by know about what time of day the beta slots open up. They also usually make sure to have a compatible device. It's like getting coveted concert tickets. There are only a finite amount and if everyone wants a ticket, they sell out quickly. I think of betas as a good way to ruin your perfectly set up/running device.

All things beta should be posted in the beta forums.

realaud · ‎08-14-2025

If you are in the beta program, you should see the section where it says you joined and the screens illustrated in @Robin621k 's screen shots. If you do not have the beta section and you don't have a header for it in your app, you should contact a beta moderator, and you should discontinue public posting.

realaud · ‎08-14-2025

Then open it. Not having it open is not an excuse for not posting in the proper area, especially when you know it's against the terms to post publicly.

realaud · ‎08-13-2025

I don't have to change anyone's habits, they have to change their own, and they deserve all the consequences for not doing so.

realaud · ‎08-13-2025

Terms are terms. It does not matter if it's a rental agreement or a penny bet with your brother. One should read the terms of anything they sign up for. Saying one has no time to read terms, well, then they must not have time to perform the product testing. If you don't know what's in the agreement, how does one know they are not giving up their first born for the chance to be in the test? Knowing people "ain't got no time" to read the terms is how things get put into contracts.

realaud · ‎08-13-2025

If one is not going to read terms, they should not sign up for anything. Did you/are you going to read the terms of your lease or mortgage?

realaud · ‎08-13-2025

You did not hurt my feelings. I'm merely telling you that the OP agreed to the terms of the beta. It is still not doing a favor to Samsung to participate in a product test. If you are such a heavy user of Apple products, what are you doing here?

realaud · ‎08-13-2025

You are not doing Samsung a favor by joining a beta, you are testing a product. I see by your comment history, you were one of the ones begging to get in. It is very clearly stated that when one joins the beta there is to be no public discussion of it. Just like any other product test. There is a specific section to discuss all things beta created specifically for this. Are you saying that you don't read terms when you sign up for something? It does not matter whether what the OP posted is news to you or not, the OP agreed to the terms.

realaud · ‎08-13-2025

Off topic. Please create your own post or join one of the others in progress.

realaud · ‎08-13-2025

One of the things you agree to when joining the beta is no leaks. All things beta should be posted in the beta forum.

realaud · ‎08-13-2025

It's only in beta, the OP obviously found the link and got accepted into the beta.

realaud · ‎08-10-2025

Oh, you are in the beta. You need to post this in the beta forum.

realaud · ‎03-09-2025

Seriously, if you don't like the UI, buy a different brand of phone or choose a different icon pack. Every brand has its own UI, but most use the same Android icons, so they all look pretty much the same. The new UI looks completely different, so that may solve your modernization issue.

realaud · ‎01-30-2025

It's - a - charging - animation. It's not entertainment or art. It performs a function, which is to tell you that your phone is actively charging. If it is not esthetically pleasing to you, do not look at it. No one but you seems to care about this. There may be many things to complain about for these devices, but this is not one of them.

realaud · ‎01-29-2025

Really? The charging animation? Who watches/pays attention to that - and who cares?

Yes, but when you join the beta, I assume your phone's configuration and carrier are examined and recorded. If you switch carriers in the middle, a) your carrier may not participate, but b) even if they do, your configuration has changed and doesn't match the hardware/software that was approved. I don't know why you would sign up for a beta test and then switch carriers right away. It makes more sense to stick with your carrier until the test is concluded.

realaud · ‎12-26-2024

No, only T-Mobile is participating in this beta. Anyway, try this link for the moderator. https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/39250068

realaud · ‎12-26-2024

You might try going to the beta forum https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/S24-S24-S24-Ultra/ct-p/us-bp-stwentyfour?page=1&tab=recent_topics The secondary carrier is likely not part of the beta and you cannot use the beta with a non participating carrier and there is no way to split the OS.

realaud · ‎12-26-2024

You have to contact the Beta moderator. Is your esim with the same carrier?

realaud · ‎12-25-2024

Oh, you are part of the Beta? You should report the bug in the Beta forum, might just be a bug with the beta, but you were still on a call when the the icons moved over. I can already tell I'm going to hate the new UI.

realaud · ‎12-25-2024

I don't know, as I am not part of the beta. I would assume you would have gotten instructions when you were accepted. I know that somewhere in this app is a beta forum. You could try direct messaging one of the moderators by clicking thir ID on any of their posts.

realaud · ‎12-25-2024

You have to notify the Beta administrator that your carrier has changed. The new carrier may not participate in the Beta and now you are ineligible to participate. As I understand it, the Beta is limited to T-Mobile users. A lesson to be learned. Do not switch carriers if you are in the middle of a Beta test.

realaud · ‎12-25-2024

You have to notify the Beta moderator that your carrier has changed. Do not reset your phone unless told to do so by the Beta administrator, as they will give you instructions for removing the beta from your phone. Or, you can switch back to T-Mobile if you want to continue to participate in the program. The Beta is limited to T-Mobile users, so if you switched carriers, you are now with a non-participant and no longer eligible for the Beta.
