thebrian8 being a long term iPhone user, I made the switch to the note 8 and I couldn't agree more. It is a beast and with the stunning display and sleek design makes my iPhone or even the new iPhone just look out dated and ugly
I agree with u guys . If only I message was on Android . Let’s face it that’s the best thing about iPhone is iMessage and FaceTime . The cameras were ahead of the curve but I believe samsung cameras are close . I can’t wait to get one . How’s the battery life !”?
You are right about the cameras. The iPhone really has outdated cameras and cannot reach the Samsung cameras. Thats been always that way. And it will stay that way. Only the software on an iPhone is slim that makes it fast without good hardware. But youre right, there is no better hardware than in a Samsung phone. Better Cameras, better bigger Software.
A word of advice. I had direction lock on in my Note 8 and today after software update the phone stopped working. I remember the direction code but it wont open the phone anymore. I cannot go inside my phone and it is frustrating. It still can receive calls but it won't open the phone. I would not recommend having the 'direction lock' on the device.
I've seen many people complaining about inconvenience because they can't use fingerprint or face/iris scanner when the phone is lying on a table -- so this is a great little hidden gem. Thanks! I'll definitely be using this.
Please help. I have a Note 8. I got a text with a contact attachment and I clicked on it and set by mistake Smart Action as default and now I can't save the contact VCF. How do I disable this Smart Action feature?
I did this to my s7 edge. Then after a while when i tried to unlock it, it failed. The problem was that when i swiped one time, sometimes it thought i swiped twice or even a third time. Only a restart helped.
Hey Jimmy, it looks like this thing sucks. Apparently The Strokes that I made didn't agree with what the phone recorded So now I can't get in with this method and it overrides all the other Biometrics. I cannot get back into my phone now. It wants to see The Strokes that it thinks I recorded and apparently it's not the same as what I thought I recorded and I can't get into the phone. Face unlock and fingerprint unlock are now overridden and I can't get into the damn phone. What's up?
OKAY! SOLUTION FOUND! GEES FINALLY! After searching and searching the web and not getting anywhere I was gonna factory reset my Note 8 and then go ahead and restore my backed up software. Then it occured to me moments ago to check Samsung's Lost prevention site "Find My Mobile" "findmymobile.samsung.com". I've played around with it at various times throughout the years just to make sure that it'd work if I needed it- and it certainly did this time. Simply highlight your device and then scroll down to the header unlock. You're then prompted to enter your Samsung account password- Wallah! Your device is unlocked and all security methods are wiped from your device necessitating you to enter a new whatever. Iris, fingerprint, etc. Anything security that you'd like to add again. Lmk how it goes for you and hoping you haven't wiped your device before reading this.
G Purpose I still need help. I currently have the s8 and I use the fingerprint scanner, the Iris scanner , and the direction lock and I can unlock my phone by using the fingerprint and the Iris scanner but I can't use the direction lock because I forgot it and I'm trying to take it out but I cant. Please help.😭☹️🙁
Hey Jimmy! First off, keep up the great work on your videos, you make them fun and pleasant to watch and learn fromm! Secondly, I can't wait till I get my Galaxy S8 on or around "Black Friday!" Oh!

Yo, i turn off the all the time on screen. Any other ways of unlocking the phone besides the finger print? Or i mean waking up the phone without using the finger print scanner?
I generally just Swype, but you MUST have security for any of the pay features. Frankly, no one accepted Android Pay on my last phone, so I got rid of it. But Samsung Pay works anywhere. I would like it to be easy if I do it.
Hey great video! I love secure folder, just wished it did one thing!!! Run another stock messenger to hide texts from others! I know I can put another messaging app like whatsup in it, but I want to two stock messaging apps! I hope Samsung one day will let us have dual messaging stock apps! can this be done? :)
iris on the n7 was awesome.. worked I! a dark room it was just a bit of a clumsy & the whole implementation seemed a little rushed with the whole 2or3 step unlock with power. hold at right distance & then your in, the front fp scanner was much easier but now w85h that option gone I do wonder if the y had simplified it to look at just 1 iris as I've yet to get my n8 delivered yet or spent any time playing with my m8s s8+, guess I'll just have to wait &fi
Do you know a way to unlock one that got locked while that locking feature was in use?.... gave my gf an old Samsung S7 i had for backup cos she broke hers and now locked that one. lol 😆 I really appreciate if someone can give me an idea of how to unlock it without recurring to the hard reset. thanks .(:
Cool trick, but I'm good with "none" which requires a long press on the home button. Haven't run into any power button unlock issues causing pocket dials. Only downside is, by using "none" the little notification icons disappear from the always on display.
I did this and forgot the sequence and it sucks because if you cannot recall it you will run the risk of the Security Deleting everything after so many tries it leaves no option to open it with the pin number or face recognition you loose everything even your memory card gets cleared out
G Purpose there's an option called "clear credentials" under security. Click it and clear it. All your security options will reset. You may prefer the security option you want after that.😊😊
Even though people say the fingerprint reader is inconvenient, after the first day I hit it with no problem. And I have small hands. That beats this method even if the user is blind. It takes doing just 1 thing instead of having to activate the screen by touching the home button or pressing the power button then unlocking it with the direction unlock. So much easier to just put my finger on the fingerprint reader
FaceUnlock swipe pattern, Is it Contra on NES for GodMode remaining left, right, A,B,A unlimited health and ammo. Donkey Kong Country for SuperNES was pretty clever use of the use of the added buttons of the SNES Controller letting B.A.R.R.E.L. cheat on title screen. Great videos, thanks for the tips. I've been hoping for some details on the Note8, durability without a case? And most recommended cases that provide full protection- including a screen protector that doesn't impact spen performance, can guard against a screen impact center screen (not the beveled edges that help deflect screen impact.) I've had a couple occasions where the phone lands directly mid screen on a rock, or something in my pocket causes screen damage. I participate in competitive shooting sports, and am a member of a volunteer fire dept, and search and rescue and have run into screen damaging situations. I bought the folio case when I got my Note8 but it makes many features of the Note8 impossible w/ one hand. It blocks the screen camera if flipped back to view the screen, and just tends to get in the way a lot. So a Note8 solution that provides proper screen protection, slim device protection for the rest of the device, and doesn't block any port or button access? When I got my S7 Edge, on release I bought a case that wasn't too bad, but the port to plug in my headphones was too small to plug in my DJ headphones. This sucked because I would be using mobile DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) mobile programs to mark cue points in songs, run a planned set to double check the flow, or when I needed to hear the finer details when making mixes or remixes. So headphone port access, s-pen access, along with 360 degree protection and hopefully not impacting wireless charging, NFC, or use with a charging/stereo system? I've gone through a lot of reviews but the quality isn't as well informed as your videos. Hard to trust the opinion of someone who says "Um" every other word. Would be nice if manufacturers backed their devices warranty for any damage like cracked screens or back covers. If it is a noted feature of the device, improved durability, then backing that statement up should be a understandable request. Again great work on the videos, high quality, and knowledgeable presentation.
wow i got so excited to use this feature but then it tells you "if you forget the direction lock password, your phone will need to reset and all data will be erased
This is awesome, now some dev pls come up with a mod, which would switch the unlock method based on your environment, like in office where my phone is placed on a table and it's impossible to lift phone everytime,!
Neville Hirschfeld This is clearly his native language, you should be proficient at speaking your native language. I also speak other languages, I still understand basic grammar
We don't say most high. Single syllable adjectives like high are followed by er or est, high, higher, the highest. More than 1 syllable adjectives like beautiful are as follows, beautiful, more beautiful, the most beautiful. Saying that, we are not here for a grammar lesson, we are here for a review.
find out 8f I stick with fp. or go signature with the s pen & keep iris for web sign in on samsung browser which whips chrome anyway. I wish they'd leave it off but google probably wouldn't be too happy about that. hurry up & arrive already. its due b4 e!d of September so can!t be too far off, all for a wireless charger I had already though mine didn't fold up & down even though their identical internally. its something for free but I'll be pissed if there's xmas deals with gear vrs or gear s3s or 256g sd cards. price u pay for being loyal & early hey?
Why do you need to unlock without looking? I can't ever recall a time I unlocked any phone and never looked at it after. Makes zero sense. Besides if you do have that need, fingerprint is the easiest and more secure way.
I tried this and I'm stuck. This is a huge bug in some Note 8 devices. Even tried unlocking the phone via findmymobile samsung page didn't work out. The only way I had was to reboot to recovery and wipe data/factory reset! DARN!!! My OEM unlock option also gone after this. Gotta wait 7days again.. You should take this video down or edit the title with warning.
Konami Code... nets you 30 lives to start Contra with, instead of 3. But from reading the comments im actually surprised so many people got the Konami Code wrong. Ya'll must remember that Contra was not the only Konami game that implemented the Konami code. It all started with "Gradius", but my favorite was "Life Force". Details of the code are: "Up", "Up", "Down", "Down", "Left", "Right", "Left", "Right", "B" first, then "A", ("Select"), "Select", "Start" Note that the additional "Select" is only required if you are starting a 2 Player game. Single Player only required 1 "Select".
Samsung has a lot of hidden features I didn't know about, And without owning a samsung device I ussually end up showing people that do own one. As usual when I get my Note 9 I'm going to go through every single settings.
Dont need to do any of that here in Canada as of December 1, 2017 by law all new phones are unlocked as of the CRTC here in Canada which is the FCC here.
6 swipes? Ars you insane? I find one swipe up almost unbearable(not really but im trying to make a point) but six? Six f***ing swipes...uh yeah...No! Now im wondering how much weight i can place with any of your other tips???

Hi. May i know where did you get your wallpaper note 8? Thanks
Cool. Always something new to discover on this phone.
Man just when I think I know everything about my Note 8 you make me think twice. Thanks!

Please help. I have a Note 8. I got a text with a contact attachment and I clicked on it and set by mistake Smart Action as default and now I can't save the contact VCF. How do I disable this Smart Action feature?

Quincy Williams it's the Nintendo cheat code

Iris unlock on deck and its fast.
Robert Leal that cheat is for Contra lol
Who would ever think to swipe up up 6× or left 6× to unlock other than you lol pretty simple.
Yeah, new people will. Even 11 year olds (me) will
I did this to my s7 edge. Then after a while when i tried to unlock it, it failed. The problem was that when i swiped one time, sometimes it thought i swiped twice or even a third time. Only a restart helped.

Its really amazing thanku so much
Dope bro good shit I use it now
you can do this on the note 5 too with the nougat update. pretty cool!
I can’t be the only one that thought he meant unlock to any carrier! 😂😂👏🏾👏🏾

Cool tip... Thanks
Really cool... Jimmy
Good little trick for when it's on your desk especially. Thanks for sharing
Very cool using something like the Konami code would be a great reference and fairly secure
Wow this is awesome.. just set it up on my Note 8
Has anyone noticed when your note 8 always on feature shows the time and date it goes from bright to barely see it dim
Only thing i hate about samsung is when u take a picture and it roates it on the other side,can u help me find a setting to change it?
LG phones have something similar called Knock Code. Unlock by tapping patterns
tried. decided didn't like it. so how do i turn it off?. tried just sliding to off. but it still requires the directionsl pattern. HELP
C Richter I'm stuck too. Forgot the scheme I entered and now it overrides my other security methods. Any solution for you so far?
G Purpose there's an option called "clear credentials" under security. Click it and clear it. All your security options will reset. You may prefer the security option you want after that.😊😊
Max payner Thank you
I really like Smart Lock, which minimizes unlocking my phone. I have it linked as a Trusted Device with my Samsung Gear Fit 2.
Ford Warrick Jr how do you find your gear fit 2, would you upgrade to the 2 pro? I'm considering getting one.
Even though people say the fingerprint reader is inconvenient, after the first day I hit it with no problem. And I have small hands.
That beats this method even if the user is blind. It takes doing just 1 thing instead of having to activate the screen by touching the home button or pressing the power button then unlocking it with the direction unlock. So much easier to just put my finger on the fingerprint reader

Great videos, thanks for the tips.
I've been hoping for some details on the Note8, durability without a case? And most recommended cases that provide full protection- including a screen protector that doesn't impact spen performance, can guard against a screen impact center screen (not the beveled edges that help deflect screen impact.)
I've had a couple occasions where the phone lands directly mid screen on a rock, or something in my pocket causes screen damage. I participate in competitive shooting sports, and am a member of a volunteer fire dept, and search and rescue and have run into screen damaging situations.
I bought the folio case when I got my Note8 but it makes many features of the Note8 impossible w/ one hand. It blocks the screen camera if flipped back to view the screen, and just tends to get in the way a lot.
So a Note8 solution that provides proper screen protection, slim device protection for the rest of the device, and doesn't block any port or button access? When I got my S7 Edge, on release I bought a case that wasn't too bad, but the port to plug in my headphones was too small to plug in my DJ headphones. This sucked because I would be using mobile DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) mobile programs to mark cue points in songs, run a planned set to double check the flow, or when I needed to hear the finer details when making mixes or remixes. So headphone port access, s-pen access, along with 360 degree protection and hopefully not impacting wireless charging, NFC, or use with a charging/stereo system? I've gone through a lot of reviews but the quality isn't as well informed as your videos. Hard to trust the opinion of someone who says "Um" every other word.
Would be nice if manufacturers backed their devices warranty for any damage like cracked screens or back covers. If it is a noted feature of the device, improved durability, then backing that statement up should be a understandable request.
Again great work on the videos, high quality, and knowledgeable presentation.
wow i got so excited to use this feature but then it tells you "if you forget the direction lock password, your phone will need to reset and all data will be erased
Thanks that is a very good idea to unlock your pone I'm gonna learn to do that
My Galaxy Note 8 does not have the "direction lock" choice. It only has swipe, pattern, pin, password and none (and the 3 biometric choices)
Forget my direction code...cuz of that can't change my password so help me out...
s8 has it too. but nice video
This setting is fucking dangerous!!!! I was locked out of my phone because i was messing around with it ahahah bloody gave me a fright!
This is awesome, now some dev pls come up with a mod, which would switch the unlock method based on your environment, like in office where my phone is placed on a table and it's impossible to lift phone everytime,!
Most high or highest, how hard is it to learn English!
Neville Hirschfeld This is clearly his native language, you should be proficient at speaking your native language. I also speak other languages, I still understand basic grammar

Nice lock feature but why would the note 8 be your phone of choice if you were blind?
Sonic for sure lol was thinkin it before you said it
I have note 8. Direction unlock option is not available on my phone. Anyone can help ?
Lg has a knockcode which i think is better. but this is a good substitute
That is awesome ♡.♡
Really nice but this feature imo knock code would've been better
Thanks, I was able to get it on my S7
Is that the Konami code? I use the Konami code too!
Very cool!
find out 8f I stick with fp. or go signature with the s pen & keep iris for web sign in on samsung browser which whips chrome anyway. I wish they'd leave it off but google probably wouldn't be too happy about that. hurry up & arrive already. its due b4 e!d of September so can!t be too far off, all for a wireless charger I had already though mine didn't fold up & down even though their identical internally. its something for free but I'll be pissed if there's xmas deals with gear vrs or gear s3s or 256g sd cards. price u pay for being loyal & early hey?
Also on the GS8 it's hidden but I use this, it's fun and unique
You can do it on the s7 and s7 edge as well
Great Video but i just want to mention, that this method also work on the galaxy s7 edge ;-)
nice i have this on my A5 2017 too
Why do you need to unlock without looking? I can't ever recall a time I unlocked any phone and never looked at it after. Makes zero sense. Besides if you do have that need, fingerprint is the easiest and more secure way.
how do u remove it ?
Mine doesnt have direction lock tho ?
I tried this and I'm stuck. This is a huge bug in some Note 8 devices. Even tried unlocking the phone via findmymobile samsung page didn't work out. The only way I had was to reboot to recovery and wipe data/factory reset! DARN!!! My OEM unlock option also gone after this. Gotta wait 7days again.. You should take this video down or edit the title with warning.
3:14 this boi just said maybe if you are blind
This can also be done on other Galaxy Phones that are Nougat Version. You can access it through Accessibility.
Konami Code... nets you 30 lives to start Contra with, instead of 3. But from reading the comments im actually surprised so many people got the Konami Code wrong. Ya'll must remember that Contra was not the only Konami game that implemented the Konami code. It all started with "Gradius", but my favorite was "Life Force". Details of the code are:
"Up", "Up", "Down", "Down",
"Left", "Right", "Left", "Right",
"B" first, then "A",
("Select"), "Select", "Start"
Note that the additional "Select" is only required if you are starting a 2 Player game. Single Player only required 1 "Select".
is in that not the konami code
i changed my passcode and its not like i forgot it but the same passcode is not working on my phone 😞
+Zaib khan interesting. If you can use that code, then take off the swipe code and use something else. :)
Now remember there are two different codes. The one he said is Contra. Some of you guys are referring to Super C.
Direction Unlock is also on the s7
Samsung has a lot of hidden features I didn't know about, And without owning a samsung device I ussually end up showing people that do own one. As usual when I get my Note 9 I'm going to go through every single settings.
you are the best yuotuber
Dont need to do any of that here in Canada as of December 1, 2017 by law all new phones are unlocked as of the CRTC here in Canada which is the FCC here.
6 swipes? Ars you insane? I find one swipe up almost unbearable(not really but im trying to make a point) but six? Six f***ing swipes...uh yeah...No! Now im wondering how much weight i can place with any of your other tips???
