[@slehernik]

Too much lsd? 😂

[@othermichigansaturn]

Thanks. Because of this video I dug into the sounds menu and did the little hearing test customization. I have fairly bad hearing and after the test (with headphones) the audio is much better and easier to hear.

[@mtl47]

It's not really a hidden feature if it's in the settings menu.

[@deepshadow4557]

mtl47 i agree and i already knew about most of these

[@sophie80]

yes this

[@robinong5803]

I'm using note fe and i know this feature quit sometime already

[@susieq7981]

Don't forget about the adaptive Sound setting it sets the sounds to your on personal hearing after a hearing test! I love that!

[@rancedurfee437]

Great tips. Is there a way to keep the screen from lighting up when charging is complete?

[@richardoshields264]

Is the *#0*# feature blocked by recent updates I was able to do this when I first got my phone but it no longer works

[@xElite00]

7:34 what if instead of the Bass I want Haddock? can I get that?

[@andersonbarbosa4405]

I really enjoy your videos, Saki! Thanks for doing this for us. I've just purchased a Galaxy S8+ and learned so much with your videos and am definitely more satisfied with the product now that I really know how to use it! Cheers from Brazil!

[@jedistar4374]

I have a question regarding video that I have recorded an when I play it there is no sounds. They all had sounds previously and now I have 8 videos with no sounds from a once a lifetime trip I mad to Mt Everest. Can you recommend how to retrieve the sounds back?

[@ceylincerev]

finally a good video which is not all about clickbaits or already known stuffs :)

[@ODekaK]

Can you please demo features instead of just miming them? At 6:10 you make hand gestures instead of just calling your own phone. At 8:00 you say that the sound options will turn on when you plug in headphones, but you don't actually do it. At 8:35 you make more hand gestures to talk about the Always On Display instead of simply showing it!

[@acanaldelbuencontenido]

Nice video sakitech, thanks for sharing it. Regarding S8, do you know why most of the time when my S8 scree is off and I press power button to switch the screen on, in the left upper corner some kind of IR sensor is activated. This is producing some intereferences with some air conditioner system I am used to using. Some people have been complaining about the same in Samsung community but i have not found a clear answer from Samsung. I have tried to find any configuration setting to disable this inital IR emission but no way. I have compared my TV remote controller IR emission with the one produced by IR sensor in S8, and both of the emissions can be recorded using a simple web cam. Any help? thanks.

[@retzy1989]

Javier Diez that should be the face recognition, to unlock the phone. It put inferred dots on your face for the face camera to read.

[@acanaldelbuencontenido]

retzy1989 face recog is disabled in my phone, as well as iris scanner and fingerprint. after talking with samsung s8, it seem to be related to light sendor (maybe it is proximity one but i am not sure if this one is based on magnetic fields, so it will make no sense for ir emissions), but there is no option to disable it when unlocking phone... all premium samsung mobiles carry these new type of sensors.

[@austinmoran7219]

I have a S8 Plus and none of the "secret" codes work for me. It is a Verizon model on version 7.0 and phone version 2.1.02.29 I am not too worried honestly just curious as to why this wouldn't work for me.

[@valorantstacker9284]

It wont work on unofficial products i believe.

[@Zeekylex]

The "secret code" is mainly on unlocked phones. Verizon blocks it for some reason but it is used to test the features of your phone. I have a Galaxy s8 plus with Verizon and it doesn't work for me. I wish they did allow it though it's a cool menu.

[@Zeekylex]

skankhunt42 You have a different model so it works on yours.

[@eashansvlogs7634]

Austin Moran They same thing happens to my friends S7 edge I think it is because of carrier security patch in US it works on my Unlocked International Samsung S7 edge though.As Zeekylex mentioned😃

[@BurnaBTaTT2Handz]

Austin Moran yeah I have an 8plus also thru Verizon. The codes do not work for me either

[@bills1779]

Can you add the mobile data usage to the home screen? I also wouldn't mind seeing what % my battery is at on the home screen .... is there any way to show this?

[@urrutia7335]

A better short cut for adding a floating shutter button, simply press and slide the shutter button to where you want it then you instantly have a floating shutter button. No need to go into setting. Another tip, press and slide shutter button up or down to zoom in or out.

[@sunlightcat6974]

I've been a last pass user for a few months now and it is great!

[@nivisan]

what is your case and screen protection ? is it resistant against drop ?

[@rickferko406]

Good info, most we already knew, but always something to learn with sooo many options on the Galaxy S8 Smartphones. Customization is endless , infinite combinations ! Android is the best !

[@MR2005-ybm]

Excellent sir Thank you

[@ShailenSobhee]

Useful tips! Thanks for sharing. Didn't know about the sound equalizer. Btw, I use Nova Launcher and the Theme option is different with that launcher. So I had to switch back to Touchwiz and I could then access Samsung Themes (somehow it isn't listed as an app in my app drawer).

[@wesleyharrison9014]

Dude thanks I'm here for the thumbnail and you covered it first!

[@Zeekylex]

I have seen the secret code menu for years. If it doesn't work for you your carrier may have this feature blocked. Big carriers like Verizon don't allow it on any of their android phones. If you have a unlocked version of any android phone it should work.

[@colinnash8706]

obviously not a Music lover but Being a Technology Expert , he has made it his business to find out about the Fundamentals and the terminology that they should be conveyed correctly ,just in case, He felt compelled to make a help video presentation that highlighted his technological prowess to every tech lover on a global platform?? These hidden diagnostic test menus have been available to access on probably 90% of every smartphone produced in the last decade, and all you needed was the correct code's to achieve this? Bass, How Low can You Go? Well, Quite a Lot lower especially if you're a Drum and BASS fan? If you have owned a Samsung 7 or above then all these secrets are easily found in your settings menu and the varying sub menu's ,If you have a potential problem with your Blower and You want to Test it to confirm this for You?? Otherwise, If you're really that bored and don't know what to do next with your phone?why not, download or stream some music to try without any secret code's AND you never know , you could find out that you Love a bit of Some Funky House with some of the lowest bass line's that don't have fish attached to them? This Comment was sponsored by All the Lover's of Music who welcome it in and allow it to Feed your Soul(Not Sole as in fish!!) Hahaha, I wonder if i'll get a bite on my Hook? Bass ,How Low can you go? Public enemy would probably put him in his Plaice??? Oh Cod forbid!!!!!Next.................night fishing from a day loving priest? an Expert none the less?? because God told him he was??

[@durgap3788]

You missed the most important detail about Sound settings. ADAPTIVE SOUND. It's a literal hearing test that then boosts certain aspects of the sound, personalizing it to your hearing ability. Audiophile's dream.

[@HOTRODLED]

[@elizabethpiacente3294]

I continually get ads when I first turn on my Galaxy 8S Plus. I never had this issue but must have picked something up when I downloaded a third party app. Is there any way I can find out which app it is that has done this so I can delete that app or do I have to do a factory hard reboot to clean the entire system out? I don't want this anymore as it is just annoying and all types of apps try to get me to download them or adds for "stuff" are there.

[@hrishideshpande7906]

Elizabeth Piacente If your problem was anything like what I had, then the black screen when you turn on your phone should have three dots in the top right corner. Click it and hit turn off. I hope this helps

[@jasonhobby2790]

Any tips on how to turn the PIN off, without doing factory Reset? For some reason my old PIN has changed, meaning the only way i can unlock my phone is using fingerprint scanner. Have tried to enter security settings but it requires the PIN to deactivate, also tried the "Find My Phone" to unlock via Samsung website but sadly didn't have "Remote Unlock" option enabled in security settings and now to turn that on means i need to enter the PIN.

[@GaryAnastasio]

What case is that in the video? Thx!

[@shelbylaneboyyy]

Hey I know this video is kinda old but I'm hoping someone can help me out. I have an s8+ and you talked about the equalizer. Well I've noticed that the equalizer on my headphones isn't that great. Like I mean it's okay and I know Samsung works hard to make it good but there are better ones out there like equalizer fx. However I can't find a way to turn off the Samsung equalizer. Like equalizer fx might work but like the bass booster doesn't work or the volume booster. Is there any way around this?

[@KutWrite]

One quibble: at 9:09 he talks about the Lock Screen and AOD as if they were the same thing. They're not. I have my AOD disabled through power saving mode. The lock screen has that awkward two-line digital clock I dislike. There's no way to change it. Even if I enable the AOD, the lock screen still shows that damn clock for a second, before the AOD shows up. I don't want the AOD, though, to save battery time. Thus, I have to see that dumb clock whenever I need to swipe the screen (I have no code enabled). I've looked and looked and not only found no way to change that clock, but I'd like to have the swipe screen up for maybe 10-15 seconds & see no way to change that, either. My S8+ is from Verizon; maybe that's why. It's always something with these big monopolies. I thought the rule was, no Saki while doing Tech. :P

[@TrudyConway]

Thank you for the vid. Maybe some people already knew about these, but most were new to me so I appreciate it.

[@shuveerseocharan3505]

I tapped one of those settings when I dialed the code and now I'm on a page showing 3 diff colour and I cant leave it. The only way I was able to leave was scrolling down the settings using my finger print scanner.

[@ebraamgeorge7307]

can u tell me where did u get this wallpaper

[@elizabethpiacente3294]

I am having a HUGE issue with pop-up adds that are driving me crazy. Is there any way of getting rid of them short of having to do a hard reboot? I am really trying to avoid that as an option if I can????? I don't know where these came from ......I was told due to an third party app I loaded which I could scream thinking that is the cause....but I need them to stop.

[@gfrom2537]

[@nwegedewisdom2085]

best i ever lean ! i love this device so plenty

[@Andrei19943]

First, do not ever download this password manager app. Yes, for U is easy way, to remind a password. But, secondly, you give a easy access to password manager developers and employees, who can abusive you password or more bad thinks. With this app safety, legacy and privacy is not guaranteed and not secured.

[@d3monKid]

so true

[@javianbrown8627]

That depends. If the app can't access your internet connection it won't be able to do that so I say check permissions and do your research

[@GregMorgan]

No, lastpass encrypts your data locally before uploading to their servers.

[@dangraphic]

ENCRYPTION Einstein. Every day, we trust banks, websites, cloud services, and private companies with our passwords and access to our accounts and our money. So in fact, having one company holding all our passwords makes more sense since it's easier to make them accountable should anything go wrong or if any of our accounts become compromised.

[@11jrg11]

One problem I ran into, was that I can't use "voice" to shoot pictures unless I disable Bixby wake up voice. I love being able to use the word "shoot" while pointing the camera, because it eliminates any movement pushing a button.

1:47 this is integrated in EVERY Samsung phone, it's called the self test diagnostics center. And if someone is a real tech freak they know how to get to the stdc. So it's not exclusively for the S8/S8+.
