Sorry
one more issue is secure folder.
Now I know some people have had problems with this, battery drain was one I think but there is also people saying it's ok
My problem is I can't find it unless I go to Samsung apps and search for it and it says UPDATE now that maybe why I don't see it any were on my phone even a phone search can't find it unless I turn data on and then it will send me to galaxy apps
What i am trying to find out does any body use it and have any problems or have they been solved (If any I have not had chance to use it)and also if I do update will that be me stuck with it if there is problems with it.
My posts look like i am always moaning but I seem to be the only having all these issues I understand there is the odd glitch but since my phone failed to install the downloaded nougat update and my phone had to go for repair all these issues make one big one
Solved! Go to best answer.

Hi @SKYMAN513
I looked into it and actually downloaded it.
Yes I've also seen it can be a battery drain and some have said it's kept the phone awake.
More recently some some have decided to stop using it as a log in is required and Samsung have said it can't be used to store certain material which casts doubt if samsung actually have some form of access to it.
Personally I don't keep anything on my phone that warrants all this so I uninstalled it.
Current Phone >
Samsung Galaxy s²⁴ Ultra 512gb.

Yes thanks cleared it all
But I couldn't resist temptation and updated it and now it's ethere for good.
They should warn you that once you have updated it you cant remove it (I think They should change the name to stuck folder)
Tried the three dot trick to uninstall update and hopefully return to how it was and then I get this page of things I have to accept.
If it's secure why are they so ☠☠secret about if you can or can not uninstall it and also it is a device administrator now which has really ☠☠me off because if it becomes a problem on my device I can't even put it to sleep.
IT must seem that your phone has to be unbranded to uninstall like BANDOFBROTHERS Could. mine is Vodafone contract that's the only reason I can think off.I appreciate getting contracts they are helpful when you haven't got the dollars all at once. but it shouldn't be used as an excuse to fill your phone with unwanted $$$
But I never stop and now I'm thinking if these phones are as secure as they say why all the extra options like Knox and the ones lower down intel and mcfee in the management folder.
But maybe it's to keep those with the Mrs who can't help themselves🤑
Well just I just have to squeeze cheeks and hope for the best
IT won't be long before I get blocked on here.but the truth is not always what people want to here.

We're you replied
I down loaded it manually
That post appears twice it's not every post but there is a few though that's why I mentioned it
On the other post SECURE FOLDER even one of stevie 1s reply appears twice
But with you saying your not seeing it,it's either a bug on the forum which I doubt or it's another problem I've found
I am going to have to bite the bullet because I can not believe all these issues.
Are happening on my device some thing is definitely wrong.
Just to add I didn't reply just because I saw one double post I have seen quite a few over the past week.but I can only recall seeing quite a few of yours.(that's when I new they wasn't mistakes of which I'm the Jedi)and the first one of Stevie 1 on the secure folder thread
I'm going take my phone into store and actually show them the problems so they know that they there before sending it off I'll try after this to get a screen shot to show you

Hi Skyman513,
I have noticed that myself there are some posts are showing up twice it happened to mine yesterday and it only happens when l am making a post from my phone and it only happens on the Vodafone forum it doesn't happen on any other
forum that l am a member of which makes me believe it's a possible technical issues with the forum it's self and not a problem with anyone's phone.

Hi stevie 1 Yes same here I was holding back on that and I new you wouldn't have double posted that many times and most of my trouble is on here
I'm even having trouble typing this.
And then when I have finished I have to triple check before posting and then there is still the odd mistake but what you just said has restored a bit of confidence.appreciated✌
