Supported Smartphones: add Samsung A71 with Android 13 #104

Closed janusw closed 1 year ago

janusw commented 1 year ago

This device seems to support BT5 now with the latest Android version. However, the BT5 reception does not work continuously. I see BT5 messages for 4 seconds, then a gap of 4 seconds and then messages again (repeating over and over).

Unfortunately I could not check the BT5 elimination criteria with nRF Connect (v4.26.1), since the app is crashing when I try to open the "Device Information" page on this device (no idea why, it seems to work well on other Android 13 devices). However, ODID (v3.4.3) shows "Coded PHY supported" and "Extended Advertising supported" and does receive BT5 messages. (Btw, maybe the testing methodology should be simplified a bit? AFAICS all the capabilities can be checked directly via the ODID app now, instead of nRF Connect and AIDA?)

One final question: Should we have multiple entries for a single device with different Android versions, like I did? (Note that for the S21+ I put three different Android versions in the same entry, since they all behave the same.) Or should we rather remove "outdated" OS versions (assuming that everyone will update to the latest available OS version anyway)?

Let's keep them separate, since there seems to be so big a difference between the two Android versions.

I added the comment also to the Japanese list. Hopefully with the correct language skill will translate it at some point.

Alright, thanks for this addition (I was not sure how to handle that), and for merging!
