Not sure if it is like that because I’m in Korea, but on my Samsung S9 Samsung is injecting ads for their new S24 in my notifications. I’ve had the phone for 5 years and this is the first time I see ads in my phone notifications, unbelievable.

I enjoyed this comment
Quite sure this is going to be Korea thing

This sort of thing is what keeps me away from Samsung phones.
Samsung used to be so great, at least in my opinion but they’ve really changed a lot over the years.
7 steps!
you consented to them while setting up the phone.
also prompt to enable them is only present in the us and korea.If you don’t want/can’t flash a custom rom: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=samsung+adb+debloat but better search for a list for your modell and first disable before uninstall. Maybe need to install some main Apps first, like a launcher, use adb
install app.apk
otherwise.deleted by creator

I don’t know about how well it supports Korean language though.
Would work great if samsung actually let people unlock the bootloader. Afaik you can’t do it in certain regions like North America.
really? I was able to unlock and root my tab a7 lite fine. I did move though to a lenovo running a gsi though.
I’ve been using the Galaxy A52s for a couple of years now. Never seen ads outside the Samsung apps. SEA region.
SEA? As in Seattle?
I’m guessing south east Asia
Not everything is in the us my friendSouth East Asia
Even “the sea” would’ve been a better guess, haha.

Agreed. I’m no cultural expert, but it really does seem like they put our oligarchy to shame with their level of roughshod running.

“No more Karoshi” protest spreading soon.
That sounds interesting. What do you know about it?
For those unfamiliar, “Karoshi” is death from overwork
I really like Samsung phones, but oh boy, they are so bloated on default install it’s unbearable. When I got my Samsung Galaxy A52, there were like 10 different things that wanted my attention on first boot, and I uninstalled most uninstallable Samsung apps straight away.
Wow, first the tv now the phone, i’m not surprised when someone come saying their fridge and washing machine is doing this too.
Ugh I hate those ads. I had a OnePlus for a few years and forgot about all the bloat you get with a Samsung phone. Recently decided to go for a Samsung phone as the other options didn’t seem much better. But now I keep getting ads from Google and Samsung in my notifications. I THINK I managed to disable some of it but it still keeps popping up once in a while.

Thanks for the tip! Checking it out right now. Does it also work if my mobile carrier isn’t on the list?
