bala which colour?which rear cam module u got?

issues to check:

front camera softness(seen some devices with poor front cam,myself changed one)

Black dead pixels(mostly visible in green color,seen two devices with one dead pixel)

other usual things you already knew
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Mandeep148:
Dead pixel on edges?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] kannanX10:
on main screen itself
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Mandeep148:
Man i hate this thing. The main issue is to tell this thing to service guy. I had bad history with dead pixel. I just hate this thing. Btw in 2k res is it visible? I just dont want to look closely to find this issue. My mood will get off. I hope mine one is perfect.

Btw i think in high resolution display dead or stuck pixel are common. I mean machines may cant make it perfectly may be im wrong.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] kannanX10:
yes its visible(if there is a dead pixel) even in 2k displays if u check closely..................even with the 4k display in Z5 premium it was visible
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Mandeep148:
Ah. I hate two things in my life.

One is scratches and second is dead or stuck pixel.

I remember i replaced 5 iphone 6s with dust and dead pixel issue. That was struggling days.

Im also really senstive to these things i catch dead stuck easily. In 12 days of usage i havent noticed dead pixel. Do you think if device had dead pixel then it can easily be see in 1st day usage. I just really dont want to look to deeply. That will become bad sleep for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] kannanX10:
if didn't notice then be happy and enjoy ur device............simply ignore my post and don't pixel peep.........
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] bala_gamer:
mine is britcell one it seems, no dead pixel. got black color, no issues so far. Occasionally palm detection dosent detect palm, will try using more and see. Overall an excellent , compact device(after using 6p), samsung camera app god i missed it :D
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] kannanX10:
It's not britecell still Isocell,as of s7/edge both Sony and Samsung sensors are similar and the differences are minimal but when u compare both Sony and Samsung side by side Samsung Isocell has slight advantage especially with the latest PD1 update but it's not big......good u got a flawless device,palm detection issues happen randomly on most devices
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] bala_gamer:
Yes, jus finished reading the comparison thread and found out what the actual difference is. Glad the difference is very negligible. Looking at the overall info looks like samsung home made sensor has Warmer tint in general and bit sharper in low light pics

I tried the gadgetsheildz screen protector from flipkart. Sadly this one too lifts off the edges when i put a Spigen case on. I've already got few scratches on my screen going naked. It is really a shame that we couldn't give this beauty the proper protection it deserves.

I guess i should try the Ringke Fusion - Gadgetsheildz combo next.

Dual SIM settings for s7 edge

guys help me out here - i have an airtel which is my primary number and a vodafone which i use to make all my business calls while at work.

i have tried EVERY setting in the dual sim settings and even with it disabled and calls to each sim forwarded to each other when unreachable . BUT each time I'm on a call on my vodafone number and someone calls me on airtel number they get a number not reachable message whereas if its vice vera and I'm on a call on airtel and someone calls me on vodafone number i get call waiting and the phone shows the incoming call. i have tried forwarding calls to each other from each sim - dual sim always on setting basically EVERYTHING but still same error on Airtel - any recommendations ?

Guys i nees urgent help.

I just bought bestsuit guard from ebay.

But i have doubts that is it matte finiSh?

I dont like matte finish.

Ebay is number 1 fraud website. I have to cancel earlier before recieving. Because they have no return policy.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] kannanX10:
i tried a bestsuit protector when i opened it seemed as a matte finish but the underneath protector is a clear one...........but on applying it didn't looked good and i removed it immediately
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Mandeep148:
Thanks for reply.

So is it shining one right? Like a glass? The picture looks like matte. I dont know how to cancel the order. Should i?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] docc:
It's actually rubber like so a little dull appearing. It is clear and definitely not matte.

Haven't found anything that fits betters than this though.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Mandeep148:
Ah i think i should cancel the order. Any other better protector? On amazon or other website. Please i need it asap. My free one protector is full of scratches.

Didn't find anything to be honest. This is the best fitting one so far.

Quick Question. My Warranty runs out in a couple of months, since there is a free screen replacement (along with the battery), do you think I should get that done? Any feedback of issues after changing screens?

As of now, haven't faced any issue yet but didn't want to risk it. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Battery replacement

I knew this hence didnt go for it earlier. My phone is out of warranty now. I had called up Samsung service centre and enquired regarding battery replacement. They said they will check the phone for 24 hrs and then decide. I said i want to change it and i am ready to pay then whats the issue. They quoted INR 2100 for battery replacement including the service charge. I thought its quite reasonable. Any suggestions guys? Should i gp for it? I intend to use the ohone for another year until S9 is launched.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] kshitij84:
If your phone is not lasting a day on fair usage maybe then cause honestly you do it now or after a couple of months it's still going to cost you more or less the same
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] saurabh808:
dont wait up for s9 or any other samsung .samsung has great hardware but the software sucks even the updates .we all know how great the battery was when s7edge was launched and now u know the story very well . i will recommend pixel devices ..will wait for the new pixels coming this year:cool:

u can get ur battery changed till u decide for a new device, 2100 is reasonable

Hey guys,

I was on Renovate N7 port Rom (MM) with N7 ported INS CSC till yesterday and I was able to get LTE+ on Jio network all the time..

The speeds were also awesome in various websites.

I used to get 15MBps constantly..

I switched to Darklord S8+ port Rom with Stock S7E INS CSC and I am not getting LTE+ anymore.. Is there any problem with S7E CSC??

Does anyone here get LTE+ on S8 port/S7 Nougat Roms??

Can u please share the link to that CSC??

I got used to LTE+ quickly and been using it for 1months..

Now eventhough Im getting 1-2MBps, it just feels slow :(

If u have LTE+ now please share the link to CSC..

Thanks :)

So finally changed the battery at Andheri service centre. Quick service. They did it in one hour. Charged 2.8m. Was a little sceptical regarding the quick service but they gave me a warranty receipt for the battery valid for one year. After the change, battery life has improved by 30% at least.

Guys any suggestions what do i do to make the battery last well in the long run. I have already disabled fast charging.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] pratik_193:
charged you 2800? was your phone under warranty? what about IP68 rating? did they gave you any warranty for IP68?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Chirag22ster:
Phone was not under warranty. Yes they said its IP68 as they changed the tapes too. I made sure I checked it immediately by immersing the phone in water.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] alok_dhawal:
To make the battery last for long you should aim to keep the charge between 20 to 80 %. Try not to fully charge or discharge the battery and keep topping of the battery to ensure it stays in that range... This reduces the stress on the cells and aids in longevity. Also personally I keep WIFI and Bluetooth scanning off, Google now disabled as I don't use it... This lets me have comfortable battery life lasts easily a day till now.

Hi , I bought S7 edge last week ......used marshmallow for a few days and updated it to 7.0 nougat 2 days back.... what i noticed is that the icons and display are a bit more vibrant, bright and sharp compared to marshmallow which runs on more graphics .... hence the power consumption....

1. wipe out the cache partition in s7 edge....

2. turn the quad hd display to 1080p during normal non video use

3. stop video enhancer when not using the videos especially turn off the always on display(useless anyway).......

i browse in my mobile continuously and i am getting a pretty good battery back up ........ consumed 20% after 3 hours.... Mine used to be galaxy note 4 previously and i see a pretty big difference in battery consumption

And op5is with sd935 armed with 6 or 8gb ram of ammunition with a metal body .... As far as exynos processor is concerned... didn't get fingers pointed about heating issues... and I am not a mobile gamer... still stick to my pc.... but I read browse and watch videos in mobile for long time hence I made a choice on s7 edge.... got 128gb version from dealer at a low price anyway;)
