Tab S7 external display broken after Android 12 update - Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 / S7 Plus Questions & Answer

Hello, since the Android 12 OneUI 4 update, when connecting Tab S7 to external display, the option to use your tablet as touchpad is no longer available (the notification doesn't appear). Anyone else encountered this?
You can see it's happening to everyone here on Reddit too.

smart lock trusted devices keep disappearing & have to be re-loaded

I'm aggravated by smartlock. It seems that my trusted devices constantly drop off or disappear. I set my bluetooth speaker in the car as a trusted device but inevitably I'll get in the car and after the speaker is connected to my phone, I find that my lock screen is still locked. When I go to smart lock and look under trusted devices, nothing is there. What the *#@*(?? I've done this repeatedly and it never works like it is supposed to. Am I mistaken about what smart lock really does? When connected to a trusted device shouldn't it allow me to skip the lock screen? Even if it doesn't, and I am mistaken about what smartlock does, why are my trusted devices always disappearing from the list and need to be re-listed? Very aggravated..please, somebody got a fix?
LG-V10 TMobile, unrooted, fully updated OS.
Same behavior on a brand new (stock) rooted Samsung Galaxy S8 G950F. Trusted devices disappear. (but bluetooth pairings disappear too, which may be the issue)
Did either of you find solutions to this problem? I'm having the same after a fresh install on my Nexus 6P.
I know this is an old thread but curious if you find out the answer.
I am on a Gakaxy S20 Ultra, Android 10. I have the exact same problem.

Samsung Galaxy S9+ Oreo 8.1 update? (need to solve Android Auto issues)

Hi,
I got my shiny S9+ two days ago and very happy with it although I have an issue with Android Auto.
My previous phone, Galaxy S7, never had a problem connecting to my car using Android Auto. It worked from the beginning and no issues whatsoever.
Now my S9+ refuses to connect with my car. Even manually launching Android Auto, the application still cannot register or recognize the car. The car also shows an error upon connecting the phone through USB (with or without Android Auto launched on the phone).
Just in case I tried three different USB C cables, uninstall/install Android Auto, clean cache & memory, reboot the phone, change the phone USB settings (MTA, File Transfer, etc), nothing seems to work. Somebody suggested me to use USB developer mode but I doubt it'll fix this issue.
I googled a little bit and found that Oreo 8.0 has issues with Android Auto that was fixed on 8.1. My phone currently has 8.0 so I wonder if somebody knows when Samsung will update their phones to Oreo 8.1
Thanks in advance,
Been using AA since day one without problems here.. And if someone suggested you try developer mode, why don't you just try it while you wait for 8.1?
Ok, thanks!
I have a PIoneer AVH4100-NEX and when I had my Nexus it was very flaky at best. I would have connection issues off and on frequent, but with my 9+ it has been flawless. Glad they worked it out.

If all fails, do the factory reset.
After S9+ got the update upon booting for the first time, the battery life was horrible. After the factory reset, however, happily ever after... (even though it was the pain in the a$$ to setup the phone again.
Thanks for all the tips. Although I delete my S7 profile in my car the solution was to perform a factory reset of my car's multimedia system/navigation. Now is working like a charm.

Lineage OS- 2 Issues- Pair with Gear S3 watch & Android Auto Fails constantly

Hey there, Loving the Poco so far, except two issues that I would really like to see resolved:
1: I would like to be able to pair my Samsung Gear S3 to the phone. So far I have searched out all sorts of side loaders and custom APK's but I have not been able to get this to work. Has anyone found a solution specific to the Pcocophone running Lineage OS/ PIE?
2: With the phone connected to my vehicle (Kona) it constantly errors out with the message on the Display "Phone has been disconnected". When this happens the audio through the phone continues, and the Google maps is still running (still receiving voice commands), however it boots to the main screen. When clicking Android auto again sometimes it opens like normal, however other times the screens show normally, however the bottom row of navigation buttons is missing, and it shortly crashes. Has anyone else come across this issue, and have any resolutions?
Any help would be appreciated!

Wireless Dex

Hi guys,
I recently got my Galaxy Tab S6 LTE version in Germany and I am amazed.
I wanted to know whether someone has already looked at "force desktop mode on secondary display" and has attempted to replace the "desktop mode" with dex ...
All the best and thanks for your time,
Kevin
This is actually Android 10 feature - Android 10 Desktop mode
I know
I am wondering whether it is possible to replace the android desktop mode that is forced upon secondary displays with samsung's iteration of a desktop mode

I just tried it. Currently this option doesn't make anything when is on.
If I connect the tablet to another display just duplicate the screen. If I turn on DeX, the tablet stays in tablet mode and DeX runs on the external display.

Yeah, I've seen videos of that before
I still think you misunderstand, though I might be unclear
I do not mean starting dex.
I mean the option to FORCE desktop mode on external displays, so when I connect to a cheap chromecast-alternative from ebay (or the connect app on windows 10 for testing purposes) the internal desktop mode starts on the external device.
I wonder whether it is possible to "force dex instead of desktop mode" thus enabling me to use dex wirelessly.
I know that standard-behavior is using dex, but I need a cable with that. The force desktop mode makes the thing wireless.
SO technically it is possible to use a desktop mode (dex-like) without attaching wires.
I wonder whether it can be done in a simple way by modifying dev-settings to force dex instead of desktop mode
sorry if I am being unclear or it does not make any sense
Sure it's interesting to try but wireless displays' capability quality and latency wise are lacking. So is of dex's too.
I hear you.
I am certainly mit Up for the Task ?
If I Recall correctly, Huawei offers Wireless Desktop Mode. I hope either some clever devs or Samsung will come Up with a brilliant wireless solition...
With native Desktop Mode I guessed it being here earlier rather than later.

black screen after IOS 16 update

Yesterday, I updated the iphone 12 pro max of my wife to ios 16 but after installing the update the screen when black. the screen is still responding and the phone can be unlocked with face ID or passcode by guessing the position of the keys. The phone can also receive call and notification and itunes still recognises the iphone and shows iphone updated to ios 16.
I have tried all the tricks about forced restart but the screen is still black.
Please assist.

I have the same problem. I spoke where I bought the screen, they told me that it is not compatible with ios 16. It tells me to install the IOS 15.6 that it had to make it work. my problem is the screen works but you can't see it! I have IPhone 12 Pro Max the screen is from Gadgetsfix
Thanks for the reply. I confirm that ios 15.6.1 is still signed from apple (at least for now). So you must restore from itunes using the shift button. Using update unfortunately didnt work for me so i had to restore using icloud. To all users that have an aftermarket screen and have this isue roll back to 15.6.1 as soon as possible before apple unsign the 15.6.1 ios.
