Bixby in UK - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Hi. Just got galaxy s8 unlocked and using it on 3 network. If I press the Bixby button it just says check connection. If a swipe to it on home page I get same thing. Wi-Fi and mobile data are fine. Any idea??

Phone Finder Disabled?

Hey,
Just logged into HTCSense.com, and it says the Phone Finder is disabled. However, it is actually enabled on my phone.
Maybe will try deleting my account on my phone, and then re-sync it.
Anyone else had this?
have you tried to enable and login into google talk?

Yeah, seems to be working fine
Very weird. It worked perfectly when I had Android on my HD2. Now it's not working
Everything else works though, I can ring my phone via the site, and it works with no delay.

My phone finder isn't working either. How do I do this google talk stuff?
My Google Talk seems to be enabled. So bit confused how I'm meant to change things
Still, I love the phone

Mine all connects fine. I had mine connected ages ago actually. Maybe it's just the (possible) high demand?
I tried making HTCSense.com account, everything went fine before the site asked me to log in from a phone.. Which is on pre order
So the email verification worked ok.
As per my account I am supposed to be somewhere in Nigeria ... lol
Yeah, you need to refresh it. And if you don't own the phone it says that. Very confused as to why mine is apparently disabled.

So does anyone's phone finder work or do we all have it disabled even though it's enabled?

It seems that not everything is functioning just yet on HTCSense.com as I have had some stuff working then failing and vice versa.
When I first registered the "Make my phone ring" service worked but now doesn't. The location finder stated incorrectly that I had not got the setting on my phone checked, but now it does actually show a map on the dashboard albeit stating that I am about 2000 miles away from where I actually am! (Refreshing does not work) Loading of contacts also fails but did load on one occasion!
I trust this service is not completely up and running properly or they really are over saturated by new users. Either way I am certain it'll work eventually and be very useful.
Yeah I figured it was probably just an error on HTC's end. I look forward to it working though.

can't set up my samsung account

I don't know why, but I can't add my samsung account to my tab. I know I'm inputing the right things but it says invalid everytime >.<
Im dealing with the same problem, however if i go to the website itself everythingvworks fine.... Its just on the tablet settings that i cant log in.
I think many people are having the same issue. When I try to log in, it fails to reach the server. But when I do, I don't have valid account.
So I tried to create another account, but it tells me that I'm already registered. But as same as capufo, I can login via web.
It's freaking catch 22. I gave up on it.
ok thanks guys, so its not just me. Im just curious how thatll get fixed cause without a login we cant update our devices.
Same thing happened to me but honestly I just kept trying and it eventually went through.

I had similar issues when I first got mine. After a few days, I found this solution on another website, and it worked for me. Others have verified it fixed their issue:
Go to settings and manage applications.
Force stop the Samsung Account and then clear data.
Open the Samsung Apps app and it will ask you to log in again.

c-loo is so right. Follow his instructions everyone. That so fixed the issue.
But one follow up question though. Does it make sense that sync is turned off for my samsung account by default. That is how it is on mines and that is how it was on mines even before.
Did not work for me....

Here is another thread with people having the same issue:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1169421
I had the same issue. I'm not sure if it will help or not, but it seems to have been fixed by changing my password on the website. Once I did that, my tab was able to verify the account and then check for updates normally.
Samsung support
Hi, the following is an email response from Samsung,
Hello
If you need to reset your password or obtain the email address you signed up with, please visit the following page:
https://account.samsungdive.com/account/find/accountFindPasswordEdit.do?serviceID=o12ht525e6
You will need to input the same information you originally used to sign up for your Samsung Account on your device.
Thank you,

i am trying to craete samsung account bt it say invalid everything

Just got back from NYC event with my new TW, I like it!

Walk up, give them your name and you get a ticket and they take your tab. Got a free t-shirt as well (woot). They said fifteen minutes and it will be by the bar where a woman was cleaning the tabs that got updated.
Started it up and had to go through all the setup again.
I am loving TW so far, so for me it was great to get this done.
Had a problem logging into the same samsung account I created when I first got the tab, nobody there could help me. Someone else was there having the same problem and they said they had to create a new account using a different email address. Which is a bummer, I can log into the samsung.com account with the same UN and PW but on my Tab I cannot log into the existing account, says wrong password but I know it is correct.
Now I need to set it all up again but so far I like it. Oh and browser text input and drop downs are much better so far.

Android 3.1 in the about section.
As for pulling the update I don't know how to do this. I never rooted so I have to do it and I would like to wait to see if someone does the locked bootloader root instructions on this new update.
Whats the build? Is it the same as whats already been released on xda?

I have this issue & it drove me crazy. I gave up after a few attempts. It's retarded that you have to create a new account with a different email address.

Is there a Print option in the browser, email, contacts, and gallery app now? Mobile Printing was listed as a feature with the update.
someone posted that TW has performance improvements?

I just did this and it worked as well. Funny thing is that I could sign into samsung.com but I could not sign into samsungdive.com. So reset PW on samsungdive.com and loged in and it worked. Then added samsung account with that email and PW and it worked. But it still shows that the samsung account is NOT syncing, just like it did before the TW update.
I reset my tab because when I first started it up at the even I was on my Evo 3g network and it was about to restore a ton of apps from gmarket so I stopped it. But since I stopped it for some reason my gmarket was NOT showing all of my apps. I tried deleting my google account and re-adding it but it did not give me the option to restore. After a reset I was able to do this and now have all my apps and see them in the market.
Does this update lock the bootloader?

You can remotely install apps onto your phone by signing into play.google.com with your Google account, selecting an app to install, and then selecting a device. If you are logged into your Google account on a phone, that phone will be listed as one of your devices. The app is then installed onto your phone, regardless of whether or not you have your phone on-hand at that time. This is how the app 'Plan B' works.
So to summarize: yes, you still need to be logged into your Google account on the device.

As far as I'm aware. The "initial id" is not stored anywhere. There's only the Google Account that is currently synced.

Yeah, I don't see why it should be any different than a regular Google account.
