samsung scan problems

Are there any Samsung phones that do not have a GR scan problem

What do you mean by a GR scan problem?
What exactly is the problem?
What are you scanning?

Sorry, I was referring to the  QR  scan problems with the Dexcom G7 sensor. This is an acknowledged problem with the Samsung S22 series of phones.  On Friday, November 28, 2025 at 08:36:59 AM PST, Navid ***@***.***> wrote: What do you mean by a GR scan problem?

Hi,

just fat red X-out the QR on the sensor photo and add that the sensors QR-code can not be used.
Someone who is used to scan the applicator will usually do so without thinking about it.

And maybe a simpler sentence at step 4 like:
4- From xDrip menu, use Settings −> Auto configure to scan the following QR-code: (This step is required only once to setup xDrip)

Writing a guide is a thankless job. You get lots of criticism.
People use the guide and help others but do not provide a link to the guide, which is extremely disappointing.

I hope to hear from someone who has actually misunderstood the guide with explanation, hoping that I would understand why.
I'm not asking everyone to give my directions. Thanks anyway.

Hi,

writing a guide for a not really easy to configure App isn't easy as well for sure...

You asked me, what could be improved in the guide allready on this topic in #4247

And obviously here, it isn't clear enough that the sensors QR is not usable.

another one on FB today, thinking they need to scan the QR code on the sensor . At least consider trying something different ?

Crossing out the sensor QR code in the image is a good idea.
Thanks
