statts1976uk Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I've got a Samsung S23 Ultra and for the first couple of months it was fine but now everytime I go into a shop with those security gates it sets them off. I just tried in airplane mode and nothing happens, can anyone advise me further as I'm not that Android-savvy! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingscot Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 (edited) Does it happen all the time or just in certain shops? Try turning off NFC and see if that helps. Edit - I've had similar issues but only with physical cards setting them off. Edited October 23, 2023 by flyingscot 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
statts1976uk Posted October 23, 2023 Author Share Posted October 23, 2023 The NFC is off but I have noticed something called UWB is on. I don't know what that is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Could it be your car key instead, if you have one that unlocks the car automatically as you approach? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultra Wide Band. It’s theoretically possible, but it would have done it from the go. 3 minutes ago, welshbairn said: Could it be your car key instead, if you have one that unlocks the car automatically as you approach? That, or perhaps an overlooked security tag that wasn’t removed on a new jacket or piece of clothing? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

statts1976uk Posted October 23, 2023 Author Share Posted October 23, 2023 Doesn't matter what I'm wearing it sets it off. I was in JD Sports picking something up and waved it through the sensors and it picked it up. Only seems to have started in the last couple of months. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2426255 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 (edited) It'll just be your new subcutaneous government implant setting it off, nothing to worry about. Edited October 23, 2023 by 2426255 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
