[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plaxy:
For android and even Iphone Batterylife will always be abyssmal first day and possibly second. you ask why. well its Downloading all your Software and stuff with your google account. also doing updates from factory. this also could be why its laggy and getting warm cause its in overdrive with Setup. Mine had some of similer issues when I first turned it on and after about 48 hours the device is settled not downloading constantly and running just perfect, I pulled off nearly 8hrs of SOT yesterday and not in power savings.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jody04c:
You need at least three days of use and charging to evaluate Battery Life and operation. Also this is a device in its infancy. It will improve with updates. The iPhone 6 Plus was shocking at the launch (I know as I had one) until Apple got their head out their arse and updated issues ranging form random reboots to sound loss and screen brightness issues.

I love the Edge.. Truly innovative and a wonder to hold and enjoy. This is the very best device available as of now (Apple included)

Have some patience.....
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] optimummind:
I've had my Gold 64GB Edge since last week Tuesday & I totally love it. No hardware & software defects or issues, good battery, no lag (I have a Nexus 5 on 5.1 to compare it too), fast, awesome camera, and simply a beautiful design. The $100 extra for the Edge was and is a non-issue for me. I don't even care for the Edge software. I just wanted the curved screen.

4 of my diehard iPhone co-workers left Apple for the Edge.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReBorn1983:
The battery drain is okay. But the temperature is bad. While setup the temperature was extreme high. But yesterday it was normal usage and all updates were already downloaded. Maybe it's the glass that's let it feel this extreme hot. I didn't do the factory reset yesterday and see if there is a change today.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilordvader:
Do we need to drain the Battery till it shuts off & then Full charge it ?

Is this a must do or ... ?

TO get better Battery Life ?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Szadzik:
Do not drain it, it only breaks the cells. Read up on how to take care of Li-Ion batteries.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3c:
Not true, Li-ion batteries do break at 2.4V or below, where as draining to 0% is still at 3.2V. What truely deteriorates battery is the combination of charging above 70% and heating. Hence the BLX feature some custom (and stock) kernels integrate and the slower charge rate every device implements above 70%.

On that kind of new device, you don't need to. Device will shut off at 0% on first full drain, as opposed to older devices which required a few full charge/discharge cycles before getting there.

Reading some of the posts seems to be fair amount of teething issues with s6 edge even more pleased I didn't take the plunge. I think prices will drop in the next couple of months
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rumdada:
I myself currently use an iPhone 6 Plus as my daily driver but I grow bored with iOS and its limitations as far as direct downloads lack of file explorer and being able to download any type of file. So i decided to grab an S6E off my local craigs list.

These are the major flaws I am running into.

1.) Lack of quality in picture messages/video, seems you are only limited to 1mb according to my carrier. With imessage I never have to worry about the quality of pics and videos will come out nice as well guessing because of apples server.

2.) Battery life, its not horrible by any stretch but its no good wither, simply mediocre. Fast charging is cool but no charging and having your phone ready all day is better, which I never had problems with my 6 Plus. & Honestly ( Wireless charging is a gimmick. Who Cares, your saving 2 seconds from not plugging it into the wall. or usb cable..... I dont see what the hype is about )

3.) Lack of fluidity on Instagram and other apps. They are smooth but not as smooth as the iPhone you can feel the lag and screen jumps within apps....... its minor but noticeable

4.) the front facing camera seems to be washed out, for me being social geek and a picture lover as well I dont understand how you have a 5mp front cam but the pics still come washed out and blurry. Its funny because you can tell who has a samsung or android from there pics on IG there almost always washed out and dull for the front facing camera. I dont know how but i feel like the iPhone 6 plus is better in that aspect too,

All in all i love the beauty of the edge and the heart rate monitor Is cool and I love android but those issues I have just keep me going back to my iPhone. I want to keep giving the edge a chance but its not looking too good for me. I may have to just Sale it.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alpine-:
I'm not disappointed but there are a lot of bugs and little issues to be worked out.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GTCC:
I sent my edge back after a couple of weeks because of the way it stutters and the battery. It also got really hot but I dint think that the camera on my Note 4 could be bettered so quickly but the S6 camera is a step up, albeit a small steep. A friend has got an S6 and I prefer it to the edge.

Wireless charging only a gimmick until you get used to it or your USB port breaks.

I'm happy with my iPhone 6 and Note 4 for now.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] desiregeek:
One will not only have to hold the smartphone in their hand but an additional external battery pack as well which defeats the purpose of have a smaller thinner smartphone when you need to hold an additional battery pack that is twice or three times the thickness of the Galaxy S6 Edge.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] desiregeek:
I am charging mine now with the stock charger and it is very hot now as it is charging.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zone23:
Yep returned mine and just running with the Nexus 5 now.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReBorn1983:
Received my replacement last week and this device doesn't get hot or have this extreme battery drain. So the first one was definitely faulty.

But I don't think I’ll keep this device either. Maybe i get used to the yellowish display. If I'm still disappointed until next week I return it and get a other Phone.

Well friends, this brings me something pissed and I just noticed that in environments with no light, when taking pictures with the flash in auto mode, these are blurred, as if use the beauty mode of the front camera xD or make a bad focus ...

This I noticed when comparing pictures with the flash in auto mode and the flash in Lantern mode as you can see the detail of the pictures with continuous flash is much higher than the auto mode ... NOTE: no matter which camera application use, the result is the same, I use the stock Sense 7 camera and also the of Google camera and even FV-5 ...

I Public this to know if I'm the only one, to rule out a problem with my phone and see if it is a matter of the rom I have 5.0.2 SD with sense 7View attachment 3257023View attachment 3257024View attachment 3257027 ...

[T-Mobile LG G2] hella356:
My Galaxy S4 is on its last legs and while I wait to see what the development of the S6 will entail, along with seeing what the LG G4, Sony Z4, and Saygus V2 shake out to be, I may pick up a cheap G2 through T-Mo to hold me over. I recognize that the G2 lacks the SD card and removable battery of the S4, but I figure I can live with that in the short term. My biggest concern is the usability of the soft keys. I've never used a phone that didn't have capacitive or hardware keys, and I'm worried that dealing with the soft keys and resulting loss of screen real estate will be aggravating. Any input (especially from former Samsung users) about what they are like to live with? I saw that they can be removed, but it then requires gestures to replicate them? Thanks!
[T-Mobile LG G2] elsecreto09:
You gonna love the soft keys, knock on feature the battery life. The back power and volume button it's a little hard to get used to. In my opinion lg stock Rom its way better than touchwix. Coming from a galaxy s2.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metallideth821:
Hi all, I recently just upgraded from the HTC Rezound to the One M8. Overall I like the phone but as far as signal strength goes, it seems like a downgrade from the Rezound. My phone is stock and has the latest updates. I even did a factory reset after the last one. I troubleshooted with tech support and they recommended I return the phone. I went to Verizon the other day and got a new SIM card. The sales person told me that the Rezound's back case was pretty much one giant antenna and that's why my M8 seems like it doesn't get as good of service. I'm used to 3-4 bars of 4G inside my house now I get 1-3 bars of 3G with the occasional 1-2 bars of 4G inside. Is there anything I can do to improve this or is this just how it's going to be?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dima470:
Unfortunately, the only thing I can recommend for you is to mess around with the APN settings, which should be just fine since it was sold straight from Verizon. Some phones get better reception than others. In my experience, my unlocked M8 is getting MUCH better reception than my G2, but I'm on AT&T.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
The number of bars don't mean anything. Literally, there is no standard to what they symbolize. And while you would think that HTC has kept it (what the number of bars symbolizes) somewhat constant between the 2 phones, there is no guarantee of that. Much better to look at Settings>About>Network, and look at Signal Strength in dBm. The larger the value, the better the signal. Keeping in mind the value is negative, so a "larger" value actually means a smaller absolute value (drop the negative). -80s to -90s is decent signal. -110s is call-dropping bad.

Assuming you really do have poorer signal on the M8, if you are not on the latest software version, you might update (as updates typically include new radio software) but the difference will probably be minor at best. Or you can s-off and try an older radio. But it might mess up other things to do so (and again, I wouldn't expect a huge improvement, if any). And you can only flash a Verizon radio (GSM radios are not compatible with the Verizon version). Plus these types of mods void your warranty, and I'm not sure you want to go there or not.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] zukaa12:
Is it possible to convert galaxy s4 I337 (att) to I337M(Bell). I used to live in US and recently moved to Canada and got Bell Mobility as my carrier. My phone is unlocked. At&t gave me unlock code, tried it and worked fine in T-mobile and other GSM carriers in India.

Now after switching I can receive calls, internet is working fine. But for some reason I can't make calls. If I dial a Canadian number it goes to some random number in USA, even though I put in correct Canadian area code.

Is Bell using different bandwidth than at&t that is causing this issue? I am wondering the possible solution would be to flash Baseband and Bootloader, to ensure it uses correct bandwidths. I want to be sure whether this is even possible.

Appreciate any suggestions.

There are two things I notice here:

1) My phone is not identified as "HTxxxxxxxxxx" but rather "FA**********".

2) It appears to work, with the reading and writing of the files, but then it doesn't work.

One thing that I noticed was that when I go into the bootloader when this does not work, I get the first attachment.

When I go to the "Recovery" option, then I get the second attachment.

It appears that I originally put a ROM or S-off'd and unlocked my phone, but somehow lost the unlock and can't figure out how to fix it.

Any help in figure it out would be appreciated.

[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] junkmail9:
Sorry for the delay in response. Looking again at your screenshot in the OP, you are indeed missing the CID. It should appear between "FIREBALL" and "HBOOT":

I have not dealt directly with that one before, but I would imaging that during temproot, you'll need to recreate the directory. I vaguely recall in a post in this forum on how to manually push a different CID via memory chunk. That might be the best approach to rebuild that area so that you can get going again.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] junkmail9:
Two questions for the general community:

1. Does anyone know if flashing the RUU will restore the CID?

[MENTION=6578195]keithsmessina[/MENTION] - It probably wouldn't hurt to try this anyway. I am guessing it will fail due to lack of CID.

2. Will sending the following command work while phone is in bootloader if the phone is not s-off and the \sdcard\CID directory is missing? What, if any other damage could occur if the \sdcard\CID directory is missing?
