[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikctsh:
Yea saw it earlier but I don't think that is the problem since multitasking works really well on my device (while playing some graphic intensive games, I can switch to a lot different apps like facebook, chrome and stuffs without killing my games in the background). The only problem is the touchwiz which redraws too frequently, even when I leave the phone without touching it :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikctsh:
Yea will head over to samsung center next few days and see if I can get an exchange unit
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johanbiff:
redraws is because of system killing the launcher(low RAM) so yes, you are having the same issue as everybody else :)
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikctsh:
I see, hopefully an update in the future will fix it :) what about overheating? Did you have it too?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johanbiff:
We sure hope so :) .. no overheating here.. gets a little warm when installing many apps but nothing serious even with heavy gaming.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikctsh:
Thats mean mine is a faulty one then :( too bad have to go back to samsung asap
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johanbiff:
It really depends on what you call "hot". get a app that monitors the cpu/gpu temp..you might be overreacting... just saying ��

Oohh.. when you charge The Phone it gets hot..all phones do.. not recomended, to play games wile in fastcharge mode!
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikctsh:
I never play with my phone while charging, I even try to charge with the phone off, but sometimes the phone really get so hot that you can't even hold it for long (not exaggerating at all)
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrnovanova:
Hey. I was just wondering if you ended up exchanging your device because I too am getting constant redraws on tw launcher even with the 5.0.2 patch/update.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikctsh:
Nope I didn't get an exchange unit, waiting for an update to fix this memory leak issue
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrnovanova:
That's the thing though. I got the patch that is supposed to fix the memory issue but I'm still getting redraws and my friend got his s6 last week and he gets none. I think there might be an issue with my device. Seeing as a got it on the first day.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mvidez:
having problem

Is it normal that s6 gets hot when im charging it especially the aluminum and it was really hot.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikctsh:
I guess we are the "unlucky" one to get a device with buggy software
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikctsh:
same happens here. Went to the service center and they told me this is normal (I was like wtf??). They want to reinstall the firmware for me but knowing that this has got nothing to do with software problem, I refuse to do so.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mvidez:
Ive contacted samsung and here is the mail that i got from them

This is to acknowledge receipt of your email regarding your Galaxy S6 Edge (SM-G925F). I understand that it is too hot to your touch and it will be my pleasure to provide you the necessary information to your inquiry.

As Galaxy S6 has slim design (142.1 x 70.1 x 7 mm) and use high performance CPU of Dual Quad Core (1.5 GHz Quad Core + 2.1 GHz Quad Core Processor), you may feel your device is hot to the touch in using. This is actually normal and should not affect the lifespan or performance of your device. And while charging, the device may also heat up.

Using the device under the environment that ambient temperature is high, you may feel the device gets hotter than usual because your device work in the thermal equilibrium status with an ambient temperature. It is commonly seen not just on Samsung devices, but many other manufacturers devices when the device is used, and it is a general phenomenon of all electronic devices.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikctsh:
IMO that is a very disappointing response from Samsung, I can play the same game on my friend's iphone but it never get so hot as it does on s6. Not sure whether to put the blame on android or samsung :confused:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MortSubit:
Hi there,

I'm new in this site and this is my first topic so really sorry if this question isn't in the proper category.

I have a S3 (I9300) with CM 11 and KK 4.4.4. Everything looks fine after upgrading the OS, but I realized that the Phone Dialer and Contacts are quite different from the previous version (I had Jeally Bean 4.3).

I have, of course, a Google account and when I sett up, it sync my mails and contacts properly. The thing is that I dont want to have "all the contacts". In the previous OS I was able to customize my contact list, being able to select which contacts I want to display.

I'm just wondering if there is any way to do the same on KitKat 4.4.4 as I dont find any menu with a kind of configuration to hide or show contacts.

Be aware that in Google, I have a group call "Old Contacts" so I dont want them to be shown in my phone. Is there any way to do that?.

Thanks.

MS.

[One (M9) General] theveterans:
TouchWiz eats too much RAM requiring each apps to reload. Check out the Free RAM available on the S6 threads and you'll see that it barely has free RAM.
[One (M9) General] Tenchi4U:
according to this, i should have gotten a iphone 6 (something that falls in between). Guess I'll have to chunk this M9 DevEd in the garbage and learn to like IOS ?
[One (M9) General] xxquicksh0txx:
Free ram is wasted ram. I highly doubt touchwiz is using so much memory it's causing other apps to be killed. It's more likely that Samsung got a little happy with killing apps in the background trying to save battery.

Probably will be fixed in a update...

Hoping HTC is able to optimize for the s810 as well, as it seems very poorly optimized atm
[One (M9) General] theveterans:
Well, if the RAM is taken over by just the UI and System, it's a wasted RAM. How come M9 usually has over 1 GB of Free RAM yet it can load all of the apps that are cached in RAM while S6 has about 200 MB Free yet it reloads apps EVEN IF those are supposed to be CACHED. I suspect a memory bloat where there's little RAM available for APPS to cache properly.
[One (M9) General] hamdir:
all that this video show is the following:

- persistent software issues on the Samsungs like hangs and needless killing apps out of RAM

- the s810 / DDR4 / 3GB combo on the M9 quality software really shines when it comes to multitasking

- Apple's high IPC from just two cores should be a big a lesson to anyone building Android SoCs
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Beakhole:
I am currently using the -dBm signal to see my cell reception in my Hyperdrive rom. I no longer need or want the regular cell signal bars. Does anyone know how I can get rid of the cell signal bars without getting rid of the WiFi or 4G icons? I want to keep those. Is this possible with root or an Xposed module? Once again, I don't want to get rid of the WiFi or 4G icons, just the cell signal bars next to the 4G icon in the screenshot below since I don't need them anymore. :confused:

[Galaxy S6 General] THEHustleMAN8:
Only if the two lines from top are displaying different values for PARTS and PHONE firmware then you would

1. Dial *#2663# in the dialer

2. Click on TSP FW UPDATE (General) it shouldn't need a reboot

3. Make sure PARTS and PHONE show the same values

4. Inverted Touch Screen Fixed

THANKS GOES TO [MENTION=5493353]Wuby986[/MENTION]
[Galaxy S6 General] Wuby986:
Hey thanks for credits..

is there a lot of people suffering from this?

i originally had the problem because i am an idiot (yesss)... too fast reading in CF-root download page and i flashed the edge package over a flat device (ouch)... luckly i found how to fix easy

did you guys flashed the correct one?
[Galaxy S6 General] THEHustleMAN8:
Yeah I've seen quite a few with this problem including me, yw!
[Galaxy S6 General] Wuby986:
Wooow this is scary... Well for this we have a workaround.. Let's just hope this is the only "surprize" we can get.. Thanks for share..

Also i would like to say that this is gonna help only if, once you are in the firmware page after dialing, the first two lines from top are displaying different values for part's and general firmware..

Hitting the tsp update is going to make those match
[Galaxy S6 General] neferym:
hi, can you help me. the dial don't want open this code.

[Galaxy S6 General] MrCommunistGen:
Worked for me!

I somehow got into this state on my T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 (N910T) when I flashed the latest TWRP (v3.0.2-0). At first I flashed the .img using my existing TWRP 2.8.7, but then I was unable to boot into recovery. I then used ODIN to flash the .tar version which worked. However, after rebooting into the system my touch was all messed up. Thankfully the stylus worked just fine so I was able to use that to use my phone until I found this thread.

I did *#2663# in the dialer, saw my versions didn't match and did the update as per the OP. Everything is back to normal now! :)
[Galaxy S6 General] lanreb:
This fixed my screen glitch. You make me love the internet. I found this page only after several hours of searching.

I had tried to update to TWRP 3.0 with the Android app but selected the wrong device (Note 4 Edge instead of Note 4).

Tha ks
[Galaxy S6 General] hamstrman:
So I have the same inverted screen problem! Although mine is across the Y-axis... Touch the left and the button on the right gets clicked.

I'm SURE what did it was installing TWRP 3.0! And now I see someone else had the same cause!

But I have a G920P running 5.0.2. (and I'd like to keep my firmware where it is). What can I do!? HELP!

I had root, but I needed to install a recovery so I could install Xposed Framework so I could enable a module. And here we are...

Update: This issue was solved for me. TWRP still won't boot, but at least my touch issue is gone.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Dachank:
Hey guys so i've had a rooted note 2014 for awhile now and want to get into custom roms. I'm on stock 4.4.2 and i'm trying to flash liquidsmooth but have a couple of questions. So on the installation guide it says

"First time installing LiquidSmooth to your Samsung Samsung Note 10.1 (2014), or coming from another ROM:

- Make sure you're running latest Recovery

- Copy GApps zip, SuperUser zip and Liquid ZIP to your internal SDCard

- Boot into Recovery

- Flash Liquid zip from internal SDCard

- Flash GApps zip from internal SDCard

- Reboot

- Restoring Apps + Data might cause problems and is not recommended, avoid it if possible!"

It seems simple enough but how do I know if i'm running the latest recovery? Also is there any other things I need to do or know before I attempt this?

[Xperia Z3 Compact General] liteon163:
Previously, I had an LG G2 on Verizon but wanted to leave for a different carrier, so last December I purchased through eBay a Sony Xperia Z3 Compact D5803. Initially, I was quite impressed. I really liked the LG G2 for its battery life, but the Sony Z3 Compact blew that away. And the Z3C performed a bit better, too. And I also liked that the Z3C was a bit smaller.

Then came the Lollipop update. :(

My battery life fell by at least 1/3 and the (non-reversible without root) update killed my NFC. And magnetic charging only works up to about 85% whether the phone is on or off. Sony is giving me a runaround, telling me to call them to ensure that my phone is under warranty. If it is, they want me to send in the phone for an evaluation that will take at least 14 days. And if a warranty repair is in order, Sony will have my phone even longer.

I pointed out to them the great inconvenience of this process, which would force me to purchase a different phone in the interim. I assured them that if this was the route I chose that I certainly wouldn't be purchasing another Sony device. So today I ordered through eBay a brand-new LG G2. It looks like I'll try sending the Z3C in. Whether they fix it or not, I will be selling the Z3C.

Thus will end my last foray into owning a Sony phone.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] istux:
Did you do a factory reset?

Anyway you could roll back to KitKat through Flashtool and wait for a better Lollipop version to come (without making any root and without losing any warranty).

:rolleyes:
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] kitch9:
Don't use Stamina mode or data queuing on Lollipop. Burns battery for some reason. Lollipop battery life is better with it off than kit kat on.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] liteon163:
I've done numerous factory resets. But I haven't tried turning off data queuing. I'll give it a shot to see what happens. Thanks.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] muzab a:

I had a bug with exchange which checked mail every 3s (first position in battery usage). Had to delete the account and reconfigure, working now.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] TimAhKin:
Well, most of your points are your major defects.

Why display is the worst? It's pretty decent imo and you can play with white balance for even better results.

I'm using KK since I got the phone ( October last year) even tho I have OTA update for Lollipop. No glass problems, no batter drain, NFC, wifi, speakers issues.

I got it for a good price on contract and yesterday I've unlocked it.

All I wanted was a newer phone with good battery life and good performance. I got that so I'm happy. :)
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] pricey2009:
You could of just flashed stock kitkat using flashtool (no root required) then just reject the update to lollipop when it comes up..

Why is this thread still open? I've been on xda for quite some time and threads exactly like this one saying goodbye and bashing that bring nothing valuable to pple who own the phone were closed. Ok ur not happy. We got it. Move along now.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] muzab a:
Exactly
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] clouds5:
Woah dude so much hate... Most people go for the z3 compact because of the screen size and/or battery life. In both categories it's basically unbeaten. There is no perfect device out there period. But the z3c has everything I need. If it does not suit your needs then go ahead and sell it. But it is definitely not a bad device.

Btw I'm still on KK, .0 versions tend to have problems in most cases (even ios..)
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] solidghost9:
There are literally NO perfect phones. Each has its own flaws. Just buy one with the necessary features that you want and adapt with it.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] heywheelie:
Well as a previous poster noted, Sony must use different manufacturers to make the Z3C. I make that statement because it seems noone here suffers from the dreaded "sudden death" syndrome that plagues some ZC3 phones. Mine being one of them. Worked brilliantly for 6 weeks then one morning it just died. Nothing would bring it back to life. Spent 4 hours on the phone to Sony tech support here in Oz trying everything in the guys bag of tricks but nothing worked. In the end the guy said "it's faulty, return it to where you bought it". I did that, they replaced the motherboard and returned it. Worked great for 2 weeks then "sudden death" struck again. Contacted the seller who told me to send it back to the repairer. After a week I contacted the repairer to learn that there are replacing the battery and the motherboard (again). If after testing it again shows it is fixed and return it to me, I'll just toss it in the bottom draw unless my kids want it. I can't afford to have a phone that just dies with no warning.

BTW my Z3C was a Singtel Singapore phone.

If you haven't heard of the sudden death bug then just google it. Numerous users suffer from it but strangely none on this forum.

Great phone when it works. Crap when it doesn't.
