The 4th Beta arrived earlier today, for those enrolled. ZVJA

Just installed it but not had much time to test for stability. I didn't have any issue with the last Beta, the phone runs very smooth.

I've had instances where my phone has crashed when answering a call, the weird thing is its the same caller!
But today it happened with a different caller, its a head scratcher for sure, it has happened 4 times now since I had the phone, just crashes then reboots.

Any good way to limit the curved screen on the ultra to just use the flat part?

Enable accidental touch protection in Display options.

Enable accidental touch protection in Display options.

Would that have restricted the visible screen size to the flat area too? Just wasn't a fan of the distortion on the curve.

Only a 224mb update from Beta 4. Seems OK so far, I can't imagine there has been much change from the beta, it ran really stable for me anyway

Yeah no real issues here either, same as the last Beta program.

Nope, just cuts down the touch area of the screen.

Installed it there now, will be interesting to see how memory management goes as my 8gb S22 ultra did get chocked up a bit at times.

Do the Beta testers have to download the official software now?

Just installed the 224mb update but G Pay is still saying unofficial software

 

[FlyingFish]

I've not checked google pay yet, but the update did say it was the end of the beta, no more beta discussion or support for anyone staying on it.

 

[evohicks]

They still haven't fixed Galaxy X enhance app, it's still crashing when trying to adjust a picture.

Just installed Google Wallet, added my card, paid for lunch with my phone, no drama

That's good to know.

damnnn, prices for this still very high

To be expected, S23 is still a ways off. I will be upgrading to the S23 Ultra if the rumoured 200MP camera upgrade is accurate.

Just update to the latest 224MB odd OTA that will be waiting in settings. That is the correct path to get to the release version.

Anyone noticed a few new apps in Good Lock? Camera Assistant looks cool:

 

[Columbo]

Just got the One UI 5 / Android 13 update ping me. On an S22 Ultra direct from Samsung and am not part of the beta program.

 

[Dirk Diggler]

Have any of you picked up the Watch 5? I've got a Galaxy Watch (2018 model) and was wondering if it's worth the upgrade?

just updated this morning, feels nice and snappy so far. Nice little amendments and visual tweaks
