Re: Need to delete "Samsung S8" signature on Digits Line?

No its not specific to S8. It happens in S7 Edge and S7 as well. A stop gap measure:
- Go to Settings -> About Device -> Device Name
- Either delete the device name completely or put something else shorter.
- Remember renaming device will rename the backup that you do in Samsung Cloud.
- Samsung needs to address this specifically as its built into the ROM
tmo_chris can you please report this to your Samsung channel?

Thanks for the feedback folks! As of now, this is the intended behavior but I understand having the ability to disable this would be more user friendly. I will make sure your feedback is heard.

I am using a Galaxy S8+ with the multiline features enabled. I have never had this issue...none of my texts have a signature. How could this be intended behavior if the issue doesn't affect me?

Correct me if I am wrong but for the OP and debjitjdv, you guys are only seeing these signatures when texting to and from other devices with built in DIGITS correct?

This is a little messed up behavior. I tried with S7 of my friend and my S7 Edge. Looks like those name of the device appears arbitrarily without any clear pattern for a particular device. I am going to send you some screenshot so that you can actually see the issue. Please look for a Dropbox link in our PM thread.

Hi @tmo_chris,
I'm actually seeing this on my Samsung Galaxy S8 device, when I send a text from the DIGITS line to my primary line. When I send texts from my primary line to my DIGITS line or to any other line, then there is no signature. I even tested this out with a T-Mo phone tech advisor, and he was able to confirm that the DIGITS line settings for that "Samsung S8" signature does not have an option for disabling or even changing to something else.
