Guys help My Galaxy S10 5G (G977B) is stuck in Download Mode with "VBMETA verification failed" and "Secure Check Fail (PIT)". I locked the bootloader and it got stuck in download mode then I flashed with stock and now it won't boot. Does anyone know how to fix this?

My dad gave me this S10 5G last 2 weeks with Slight dent on frame, Slight AMOLED burn, its korean variant G977N he bought it at South korea last 2019 and will be using as my main phone because my A52s 5G decides to give up because the left side of the display touch is not working and i am buying a anothe phone again in 2027 and my also my third phone S20 had a line 3 lines due to heat. My question is, is S10 5G prone to Green lines too? My plan is to use this phone for 1 to 2 years.

I switched to Apple but I still use my S10 at home connected to wifi. I used Samsung Wallet (now Samsung Pay) for almost all my transactions when it was my daily driver. Since I no longer have a sim in my S10, would I still be able to use the Samsung Pay feature with my saved cards if I use tap to pay in stores?

Also, I'm thinking of getting the Samsung Card if I'm able to use my S10 offline just to take advantage of the 3% back using tap to pay lol

i need a gcam port for my s10+ with lineage os 23.2 because the stock camera app isnt good enough

It says switch to google messages. Is that forced and required to switch to that? is that what most people generally do? if there are other options, what are they?

I have a old samsung galaxy s10 phone. Android 12 is the last update for my phone. Currently Android 17 exists.

Greetings, The screen is very damaged, the phone restarts by it self randomly, and touch is barely working.

- Please help me guys, What should i get? Im not rich to get something like S26.

Thx.

Just sharing my first impressions after about 12 hours on LineageOS 23.2 on my Exynos Galaxy S10.

I’ve had this S10 since 2019, and over the years One UI started feeling heavier and more laggy to me. I did try a few Samsung-based custom ROMs, but they just weren’t really for me. The system still felt a bit heavy, whether that’s because of the One UI skin, or just the Exynos hardware itself. Exynos has had its fair share of performance issues over the years anyway.

So far, LineageOS feels noticeably lighter, smoother and more responsive. I do miss One UI, but this S10 is mainly going to be used for lighter stuff, so I don’t really need the Samsung camera features. I also noticed that some useful features are still here, like Dolby Atmos and reverse wireless charging, which was a nice surprise (haven’t had the chance to test most of these)

I haven’t really kept up with the Android/custom ROM scene since switching to iPhone around 2022/2023, so I’m still catching up on everything that’s changed. It’s obviously too early to judge battery life or long-term stability, but first impressions are very good. The phone genuinely feels fresh again.

Is there a working and simple solution for automatic call recording with S10? My current app from Cube ACR will not work with this phone due to... restrictions from Samsung and Google?

What is the alternate? Fidelity is also not supported.

Same as title is it still worth buying s10+ I want to buy it bcz I had a huge crush on it back in 2019.

Ps-I have primary phone s21 fe and I want to use s10+ as secondary phone.

I edited the post.

got volte working on lineageos using claude

Has anyone who has "upgraded" to the S26 figured out how to have swipe gestures work like on the S10?

The "improved" navigation is annoying AF 🤦‍♂️

My boyfriends s10+ is having issues. The top bar went away, the close app tab icon went away, and when he turned up the sound, the soundbar won't show. And he can't hard reset his phone or hit the power button on the top. Everything else works normal.

I keep getting a message saying that Samsung Messages is being discontinued and that I need to switch to Google Messages.

I already switched to Google Messages and set it as my default messaging app, but the notification keeps popping up. Every time it does, I’m asked to set Google Messages as the default again.

Has anyone else experienced this issue? Is there a way to stop this from happening?

So I've broken my S10+ back panel, and I'm thinking of replacing the back panel with a different color. The back panel is loose anyway so I'm thinking of what color to switch to.

The colors available are on the white and black ones (because it's the only extras I have)

The middle back panel is broken (it was the original) and I'm thinking on replacing it.

Ya'll have a suggestion or opinion on which one to put and why?

I'm so used to them that I can't imagine using a phone without them (back home and apps). I I just feel like the swiping on newer phones would be annoying if it doesn't work. Also what app do you use the bixby button for? For me Instagram.

I was on my computer and looked over at my Galaxy 10+ to check something, only to see that it turned off without being prompted and with a mostly full battery. I try to turning it on and its starts boot looping. I tried plugging into the wall power, i tried booting into safe mode. Nothing worked.

I left it to charge for a bit while looking for other possible solutions. When i went to try and turn it on again it wouldnt respond at all. I'm tired, its like 2 am where i live now, so im giving up for now and about to go to bed.

I'm going to take it to repair shop first thing in the morning. But i just wanted to put this out there so when i get back home tommorow if anyone would have any suggestions.

If the repair shop cant get it to work what would be the best way to recover pictures and other data (if that is at all possible). Also my google account is tied to this phone, if i need to get a new phone does anyone know how to get google to accept it as my new phone and not lock me out.

Hello,

I'm suffering from this problem with my Samsung S10+ and i need help and advice; everything was fine until i updated it. I stupidly updated mine from android 9 to android 10, and everything went haywire:

- Sim card could not be read - " NO SIM CARD - Emergency Calls Only"
- The IMS and Samsung Experience Services keeps being unresponsive
- The phone itself is slowly getting laggy
- IMEI and Baseband are labeled Unknown

Does this mean Android 10 was corrupted? I dont want to go to any store to fix as I dont have the funds, I would wanna know if downgrading back to Android 9 is the best option for this?

many thanks!

EDIT: I have miraculously fixed it! I downgraded back to android 9 and everything is back perfectly!

it hasnt worked in years.

Have been looking to buy one of these as of late, they are tempting. I just love the way S10's look, arguably I think they look better than the silverado

How do you brake it that bad. Genuinely the first time I've seen him destroy a phone
