      This phone is so good, but mine's had microphone issues lately. Restarted and it works as usual but then some hours the issue keeps happening again and again and it's so tiring to restart it all the time only to make sure the microphone worked.

            Multimedia, 21 Aug 2023After updating this phone to android 12 & 13 my microphone on speaker call is not working ... moreHappened to my phone too. This is what I get from chatting with Samsung support.

              Anonymous, 02 Jul 2023White line in the centre of screen. Apparently this is cause by the recent software update. So... morefor anyone with this white line issue, im curious if it's occuring on bootup too or ONLY in android (android = samsung boot animation. the "Samsung GALAXY A71" text is part of the bootloader)

              if its occuring within bootloader too, there's no reason to believe it's been done by the software update and not simply coincidence. it could be possible that samsung has added some maniac payload to mess up the display drivers and cause pixels to blow up, but this hasnt happened on my unit, and if they implemented this by chance then this would be the revelation of the century..

              samsung is required to publish source code for much of their drivers too, and on android devices that can be rooted, this would be a very unintelligent move because figuring this out wouldnt be very difficult and the repercussions for samsung would be incredible

                Anonymous, 21 Jul 2023Samsung even blocked being able to downgrade firmware to the last stable one if problems occur... morethis is wrong, its genuinely done for security, to prevent people from downgrading to versions that could be used to bypass/bruteforce lockscreens.

                i know, the classic "its for security" argument is obnoxious, but this time its real, because you actually *can* downgrade on these devices.

                samsung never limited your ability to run unsigned code on these, just unlock the bootloader and then you can run any software on these devices. if samsung really wanted to force you to upgrade, they'd lock the bootloader like apple does.

                switching bootloader lock states triggers a data wipe, so it prevents the safety from being compromised too. wish more people would realize how much of an important feature this is, its the only way to have true freedom on your phone. (samsung, huawei, oppo and many more are trying to take this RIGHT away from us. just like apple did)

                      I wanted to love this phone because for the price it wasn't too bad, but around a month after the initial purchase i had a problem and it got a motherboard swap, fast forward 2 years later and the same thing. reliability is an issue.

                            Multimedia, 07 Aug 2023After updating this phone to android 12 & 13 my microphone on speaker call is not working ... moreI had that experience earlier, and if you could scroll down below and see my previous correspondence on that issue. What happened with mine was at some random point in time, when someone calls, or I call someone, they couldn't hear me, nor I them (sometimes). I had to keep restarting my phone to set it right and use normally. Also I noted that sometimes I would use earphones(normal wired) and the sound would come from the phone speaker and not through the earphones. I inquired with Samsung service centre (out of warranty) and all they did was flash the phone, and that didn't work. An IT technician at my work had a look at my phone and told me that he believes that there is an App that is hijacking the microphone. After careful investigation, I noted it to be the Bixby App. So, I disabled Bixby and so far, have not experienced that problem again. Try and see if it will work for you.

                                Had it since 2020, mine alsa had charging issue multiple time, but after i found a better a better service center, never had that problem anymore.
                                It's a pretty great phone, comfortable, no lag, OS up todate enough, and i hope i can use it for 2 more years 😅 phone these days are way too expensive and i have other priorities

I recently tried to charge the A71 again with the samsung super fast charger and it didn't work. Itold this to my son and then he tell me, ''no, you have to charge it with the iPad charger''. I was like are you kidding me. next thing you know, he plugs it with the Type C usb charger from a iPad pro and what do you know its charging fine now. this happend last night and I havent had the chance to recharge it yet.

                                        i have this phone a71 , it is pretty good to be honest, since the A series of samsung usually arent that good.. this phone turned out to be very durable, smooth and comfortable to use, no issues or anything! i had it since 2021, the phone fell many times, even was thrown accidentally. only minor scratches hence the falls and got bent slightly after being smacked into a hard surface, even though the phone is still rigid and working, and nothing really happened to it. i really liked how a "budget" phone it is and powerful at the same time!
