Down with under-screen fingerprint sensors!
  • The reader being under the screen makes the most sense in my opinion. It's the part of the phone you touch the most. And speed is a non issue anymore. Ultrasonic sensors are about as fast if not faster than the old capacitive ones now. They're also as accurate in my experience and after a while I've learned to put my finger exactly where it is so it's a non issue. It also unlocks when my finger is wet unlike the older capacitive ones which is huge for me. So in conclusion I disagree. Fingerprint sensors should be in display and ultrasonic.

  • Alternate methods to get a screenshot
  • Aye, OP, check if you can find Goodlock on the Galaxy Store. Go into the "Life up" section on the Goodlock app and download Registrar. It should allow you to set either the back double /triple tap and/or a press and hold of the side button to take a screenshot, as shown here.

    Hi, I'm back with an update! My boy is almost done with the treatment! He's doing really well! One more shot left!

    He's back to his playful self (yay!!!). He's running around, jumping, chasing stuff! Overall, he's just a lot more mobile. Also, he's gotten a lot more affectionate around me these past 4 days. Do you think he understands that by bringing him to the vet, I'm helping him feel better?

    Went to the vet yesterday since my boy was acting weird. Turns out he was showing very mild signs of paralysis.

    Vet said he needed shots to boost his nerves and if he doesn't respond well in a couple days he'll do an X-ray and decide on a further course of treatment. He's back to purring in my lap again. Hug your kitties extra tight for me tonight.
