Really in love with this phone! Even in 2024 this phone gives over 7 hours of screen on time, beautiful pics across all its cameras, offers standout design with gorgeous screen resolution with regular updates (despite being a 2021 release) what more can you ask for from this beauty in today's time when flagships are insanely priced!!

          Sam799, 02 May 2024Hoping for one UI 6.1 with May update.Me too.

          But not that much after figuring out how to turn battery protect at only specific time. Was waiting for Adaptive battery charging.

          In Modes and Routines app.

          Also used Modes and Routines to turn on battery when less than 31% (between 0 and 30) and only when not charging.

            Hoping for one UI 6.1 with May update.

                i have a green line on my Samsung s21 ultra screen, How I can solve this problem?

                  A bug I may have discovered regarding UHQ.

                  Connect DAC or adapter to 3.5 while bluetooth connected. Then, disconnect bluetooth without disconnecting wired headphones.

                  UHQ becomes grayed out, and may stop working. Reactivates on visiting Samsung sound effects, but still grayed out. Gotta reconnect wired to fix.

                  Understand A2DP, but I disabled that in my car, only HFP. And it happened sometimes, and I was thinking why, until I realized I was always in my car and exited car (turned it off) it when it happened.

                    Hmmm, so I got tired of waiting for One UI 6.1 for Adaptive battery charging, so I used Tasker to enable Protect battery from 19:00 to 6:25, so it's full at 6:50.

                    Tasker may need root for this though.

                    To do so, install Tasker.

                    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.dinglisch.android.taskerm

                    Give it everything it asks for. When done, it will ask simple or full experience. Choose full.

                    Create a new profile by pressing plus, then select "CREATE", then "Time". Select start and end time when Battery protect will be on, then press the back arrow.

                    Tap "New task" - you'll need two tasks total, so name it something like Enable Battery Protect. Press plus icon. In filter type in custom, then select Custom Setting. For name paste:

                    protect_battery

                    and for value type in 1.

                    Press the back arrow two times until you're back to profiles.

                    You'll see the green arrow and the name of your task you've created - this is your enter task, that gets executed when conditions are met.

                    Now you need an exit task that gets executed when the time you've set passes. Long tap the start task, and tap Add Exit Task, and name it something like Disable Battery Protect. Repeat the process for the enter task, except for value type in 0. This task disables Battery protect when time you've set passes.

                    Return back to profiles. Find the checkmark in the top bar and tap it.

                    That's it. Add a status bar Protect battery option to quickly see it in action and if it works.

I personally like the rounded edges on the S21 rather than the sharp corners on the S24 also the S22, S23 & the S24 all look the same from front & back while the back design on the S21 looks pretty cool and makes it stand out from the crowd.

                        I love the aspect ratio of the S21U. I held a 24U in my hand in the Verizon store a few days ago and absolutely hated it. The squared off corners made it even worse. Nothing about it seemed remotely appealing.

                            I think samsung going to update s21 ultra till Android 16 same as s20 ultra that extended to Android 15 with one year of security patches.

                              Try Frija or samfw.com, enter your model and CSC (and SN or IMEI for Frija) and find the latest for your CSC.

                              Then flash manually with ODIN.

                              Choose HOME_CSC, not CSC, as file for CSC slot in ODIN, as HOME_CSC keeps your data while CSC wipes it.

                                Current device. Good so far

                                Moderate charging speed (1hr 35mins max), good processor and camera.

                                Can't update to One UI 6 yet but fairs I guess. Wanted to get this bad in '21 but couldn't


                                Played games with bitches and a few video editing apps as well.

                                Still good enough for use in '24

                                  This phone is well over 3 years old (I recently gave it to my dad and moved to the Xiaomi 14 Ultra). I wiped it and set it up for him (with the new setup designed to give optimal battery life). He gets three days on a single charge despite the battery being 3 years old.

                                  Well done Samsung. The S21U was ahead of its time and was a marvel of a design. However they have sat on their heels and failed to innovate much since then. Hence my jump away from them.

                                  Oh how I wish a true class leading successor to the S21U was in the cards. I hate the squared off design of the 22U, 23U, 24U, etc. I also could not possibly care any less about having a stylus. To me that just takes up valuable interior space. I'd make a trade for another 500mah of battery any day of the week in place of that (or better camera hardware).

                                    Superb phone!! Went to the riverside took lots of pics of friends, family and nature with different modes all turned out great, the battery lasted till the next day I'm using the Exynos version & no complaints so far still get fast updates (April being the latest). All in all a very satisfying experience using this phone ❤️

                                      So I tried call recording in Firefds Kit. It starts recording after call is connected and adds a new option in the phone with an option to autorecord calls.

                                      And it works.

                                        Camera is pretty decent if not outstanding but that's the case with almost all phone cameras. I've tried the S22 Ultra camera & it's way to contrasty compared to this. As far as battery is concerned for me it's quite satisfying as I use standard refresh rate minus QHD (I don't game on it) with all useless apps put to deep sleep plus some handy tricks to save battery life so for me it lasts for over a day with somewhere around 7 hours of SOT. Overall it has been a good experience using this phone even in 2024.
