T-Mobile Galaxy S6 SM-G920T Update to build G920TUVU3DOI1, Improved Samsung Pay Apps

By
T-Mobile is sending another Android 5.1.1 Update to Samsung Galaxy S6 (SM-G920T) to which will bump its build to G920TUVU3DOI1 from G920TUVU2DOH6. The update only brings the Samsung Pay update and nothing any major changes to take effect. The Samsung Pay application is the new and upcoming mobile payment in the United States.

The Samsung Pay has been already installed in Samsung Galaxy S6,  S6 Edge, S6 Edge plus and the Galaxy Note 5, so this update might only bring some few adjustments and improvements to the said app before its  official launch in the US to which reportedly starts on September 28.  Once it does, a T-Mobile Galaxy S6 will then be able to make mobile payments  by just simply swiping it like a regular credit card as the device itself is equipped with a Magnetic Secure Transmission (MST) technology.

But anyway,  the following is what the technical details  stated on the G920TUVU3DOI1 update.  The build number itself is quite deceiving, as it  looks like an Android 6.0 Marshmallow, but it's not and it is still base in Android 5.1.1 Lollipop.

Model number: SM-G920T
Android version: 5.1.1
Baseband version: G920TUVU3DOI1
Kernel Version: 3.10.61-5551112
Build Number: LMY47X.G920TUVU3DOI1SE for Android Status Enforcing
AP G920TUVU2DOI1
CSC G920TTMB2DOI1
CP  G920TUVU2DOI1
File size: 62.78 MB



Features / Enhancements:
  • Samsung Pay update
  • Various bug fixes and improvements

The update is now available either via OTA update  and using the Samsung Smart Switch for PC.

    Why did the character counter in SMS disappear with the last two updates. Also while sending MMS now you can't include comments with pictures.

Paint On Galaxy Z Fold7 Phones Is Already Peeling Off, According To Consumers

By
The paint chipping issue reported by some Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 users appears to be a recurring problem that was also seen with the Z Fold 6. Despite users claiming they have not dropped their devices, paint delamination is occurring on the anodized aluminum body. Samsung’s support page for the Z Fold 6 suggests that poorly grounded third-party chargers can cause leakage currents, damaging the anodized finish and leading to paint chipping. This is why Samsung advises using only official chargers. However, since at least one affected user on Reddit reported using an official 25W Samsung charger, it raises concerns that the problem might not be solely due to third-party chargers. It could indicate potential issues with Samsung’s paint application process or possibly that their chargers might not fully prevent this damage under certain conditions.
