You all have been tracked for the last 10 years. Look up google sensorvault. Wake up people.

Interesting, wifes j4 screen went black around midday here 5-45hrs in front and is now not working apart from a small strip down middle.

I have found that holding down the power button for over thirty seconds can force a reboot on a Samsung phone.

Good luck!

Until your military service has required you neutralize enemy combatants and invaders in the defense of your country,
don't presume to tell us that have defended you that you don't support every shot we fired to eliminate that enemy.

Hey they might be trying to estimate how many people died in China.
They know how many units are in China I would imagine so they'll know how many people didn't receive the notification, and then they could extrapolate

Re: SAMSUNG PHONE OWNERS, Samsung blasts Galaxy phones worldwide with weird ‘1’ notification
I was wondering what that was. I also didn't realize the S8 had that function.

I recommend a password change if you have a Samsung account in case some kind of security breach that caused this.

I wonder if the people that didn't get the notification have a Samsung account. Please respond and let us know if you do or don't so we can get a better picture of what happened.

Did you receive this message :

In what appears to be a curious accident, Galaxy phone users worldwide have received a mysterious notification from Samsung’s Find My Mobile app. The alert, which several users reported, simply reads “1” with another “1” below it.

Wonder what it was, are they actively tracking everyone now...

I got a confirmation after I clicked it that said basically congrats your phone has been located... WTF

It’s some sort of countdown for the virus. Maybe that’s when they are planning on shutting the phones off.

Yeah not everyone got it. But I believe a very high amount of people got it, even though samsung said it was limited I don't think that's true, otherwise you wouldn't have as many reports of people getting it on multiple samsung devices in one household, that pretty much proves it wasn't that limited.

I also got a 'Security Update' yesterday from Samsung that I installed last night BEFORE I got the '1' message at 12:50am EST this morning in CT. Did anyone else install the update before they got the message?

Maybe that was a affirmative confirmation when you click on it to open it. i didnt click on mine to open it, i swiped it to the left to delete it. I did go into settings and did see that it had turned back on the find my phone setting, had to turn it back off.
