Samsung recently released UI 8 for Android, which had the astounding forward-thinking and innovative move of removing the ability to silence your phone by hitting the volume down button

idk what phone I’m gonna buy next, but that’s the last straw with Samsung for me. I’m already sick of them changing features on the phone to make them worse, like how in order to do a partial screenshot (a feature I used to use a lot) you now need to click the button and wait a few seconds for the “AI” to think about what portion of the screen to select. you cannot skip this waiting period. you cannot disable this (that I have found). you cannot ‘undo’ when you draw a box around a section that includes text and it tries to helpfully extract the text for you instead of just fucking taking a screenshot of the highlighted portion of the screen

fuck Samsung

Press the power button to silence a ringing phone call.

You’re not using screenshot and crop, you’re using AI Select, which yeah, is going to try and do more stuff.

AI select is instant for me, no idea why it’s slow for you

If you REALLY want to use AI select, and it detects text, press the OCR button to undo OCR and press the save button.

If you’re that fed up, may as well buy an iPhone and root/flash the thing to a custom OS, or another Samsung, and do the same thing. Those brands have consistently had the best hardware, so if you’re gonna just nuke the software anyway, which is your best option, may as well get the hardware that you want.

  No offense but what world are you living in where you can just install custom firmware on iPhones and Samsungs? I’d love to live in that world but those are two of the worst manufacturers for cfw support

  Can you even root those brands easily?
