Hi guys ..need some help ..I updated my S21fe yesterday to oneui 5 ,android 13 ,however now I notice 8 do not get celcom 5g...anyone facing similar issue ?  Any solutions please ?  Appreciate the help..thanks

After the one ui 5 updates the phone keeps jumping between 5g and 4g
Most of the time it'll stuck on 4g even when there's a 5g node just outside my window
The only way to make it connect to 5g is turn on and off airplane mode
After the November update it's a bit better but still nowhere like pre 5.0

I've been using Android S2>S3>Note3>S5>S7E>P10>S9+>S21+>iPhone 13pro>S22

Using iPhone 13 Pro for 3 months and can't stand with iOS limitation. If you used to it the Android flexibility, you won't get used to it qith iOS. 2 things that iPhone really good is the stability that never lag, hang or even hot and the battery life is so good.

Now using S22 and need to charge 2 to 3 times a day.

Been sticking with Note series for a long time after brief ownership of S2 lol
S2>Note 1>Note 2>Note 3>Note 4>Note 5>Note 7 the exploding one>Note 9>Note 20U>S21U
Tried Iphone 11 Pro for a month or so, cant stand their file manager and keyboard without number row
But battery wise Iphone is definitely better than Android, unplug it at 8PM at 100% charge with wifi on
Next moning at 8am still got around 95%+, meanwhile S21U with everything off is already at 90%
Notification arrives faster too

But I wont be using Iphone as my main for sure

One UI 5.1 update is causing battery life problems on Samsung phones

https://www.androidcentral.com/apps-softwar...ery-drain-issue

What you need to know
The latest One UI 5.1 update appears to be rapidly depleting the battery on certain Galaxy phones.
Some users are also said to be experiencing overheating issues with their devices after installing the new update.
The problem seems to be affecting the Galaxy S22 series and some Galaxy S21 models.

Just installed lol

A day in now, battery life is the same as 5.0
Not noticing any difference in both performance and aesthetics

hello guys i got a s21 FE.
noticed the back glue is almost gone. i can pry the back cover easily.

called the service center, the cost to replace the glue is RM128!

my goodness,i can buy the back cover glue online and replace it myself but im worried about the air tightness. i dont have the machine to test.

Change the battery instead, they will paste it back FOC
