Don't Install If You Use Samsung DeX w/ a Third Party Dock

Don't Install If You Use Samsung DeX w/ a Third Party Dock

It was only a matter of time before Samsung locked down this feature. 

According to Samsung Galaxy S8 users on the latest Android 8.0 beta, the new version blocks the use of third-party docks with Samsung DeX. 

Galaxy S8 users on the latest Android 8.0 beta connecting devices to these docks no longer get the full Samsung DeX UI experience. Instead, they see a mirror of their smartphone display. 

Those who wish to continue getting the full DeX experience need to stay put on Android 7.0 or upgrade to an expensive first-party dock.

    support team Hi. I’m Adina from Iran. I have a Samsung mobile phone that has a Galaxy S6 model. When I bought Android, I was upgrading to the 5 lollipop, which was gradually upgraded to 6 and 7. I plan to update 7.1.1 or Android O, but I’m sorry to say that Samsung’s representative in Iran does not provide good support. I also contacted your representative in the United States, but they tell me that our information is limited to American phones. I wanted to know if you might be using ota on Android 7.1.1 Or send me the Android 8? I’d love to have this version of Android on my phone. Give me some guidance. Thank you samsung galaxy s6
