[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] jakejm79:
I know on my Ouku unit I had the option of mapping different functions to the same steering wheel button depending on if it was a long or short press. Is anything like that available on these?

I see when assigning steering wheel controls there are two little rectangles for each button and when you assign a button one of them lights up.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] deliad:
Possible?

Im interested at the same functionality, can someone confirm possiblity?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] PekeMM:
Hi,

Not all functions are available with both Short/Long action, and you set both Short/Long Press using single detection eg. select a command for Short and command for long one in each column.

For example you can't assign long function for VOL+/- but you can assign for VOL MUTE, MODE, HOME selections.

How much time does it take to fully charge R7 plus from 0

% to 100% ??
[Oppo R7 Plus] rch.aj34:
About 40 minutes in my experience. even less when turned off.
[Oppo R7 Plus] MohammadNegm:

Proud owner yes ! :d
[Oppo R7 Plus] avsroy:
Oppo uses a VooC 4 amp fast charger. It is currently the fastest in the industry. The phone does not heat up while charging but the charger does get warm. It comes with a special proprietary charging cable. If you use normal cable and charger, then it will slow charge.

If you aren't adept in C++ or hard coding, a GREAT compromise is using RLToday.

With RLToday the custom "skins" you can create, are all done in XML. You can use custom graphics, icons, and even fonts (if you install them to your ppc). The forum on the RLToday site has tons of users' skins posted and you can find one that has some elements you like and work off of that XML file. And with RLtoday you can call up registry keys and other stuff too with EASE!

I took an underwater photo this morning and put the phone away (S7E). 4 hours later I plugged it into the wall (fast charger) for a top-up and the phone popped up an error message "moisture detected in charging port.." and the phone won't charge.

Is this a safeguard? I will try charging again in a few hours, but curious if anyone else observed this so far..
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Delboyd12:
Pop it in some rice as a precaution maybe?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] marcgear:
I have read somewhere it's like a kill switch in charging port should be fine after a while
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Beefheart:
Sounds like a very sensible safeguard to me. Regardless of how waterproof the phone is, the charging port has to be exposed at least partly until the contacts hit the seal. If there is moisture on those exposed contacts, it could result in a short and issues. Take a hair dryer to the port for 30 seconds and try again.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] xxaarraa:
Tried the hair dryer and no go, phone won't charge. No more error message. I will try after a while and see if its different. Between buyer's remorse, warranty and my jump insurance, I am not worried about it.

But it is annoying for a water resistant / IP68 phone to act up after its first 30 seconds of exposure to water. Having to find a hair dryer or box of rice each time I get it wet defeats the point of IP68 frankly.

Anyway, more to come.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Beefheart:
Perhaps when the error has been displayed, it trips a flag which stops it from charging for a set time, even if it's able to.

You can always go down the wireless charging route. Whilst it's not allowed to charge via the cable, that's bound to work. No good if you don't have a wireless charger mind, but I suspect most people with one of these will get one eventually.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] vahdyx:
I actually had this issue without the phone being wet. I bought a 10 ft USB cable for my living room to run behind my couch to the end table so I can charge my phone in my living room if needed and not have it visible. Long story short when I plugged it in to the third party cable, it said there's moisture and won't charge.

Anyone else having third party USB cable issues?

Works fine with the Samsung cable.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] CuBz90:
Good to know it has a safeguard.

I will still avoid getting it in water even tho the phone is IP68 rated. mainly because I watched a Youtube video that suggested that the sound goes much quieter when it has been submerged. Also, a website suggested the warranty does not cover water damage, which imo is stupid for a phone that's been advertised as being waterproof.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Jose Viegas:
That happened to my Sony Z3C, advertised almost like it was a submarine but after some splashes it stopped working. Only then I've found warranty didn't cover it, tho it was Sony's ads that lead to the problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jmm22:
It's advertised as water resistant, not waterproof. I'll bet that submerging it in water will void the warranty because there's no way to prove how long it was submerged or to what depth.

It's a protection feature in case something goes wrong, it's not meant to be used underwater as a camera. A little common sense and a quick read of the warranty would tell you that. Insurance may cover it, but a warranty won't.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Brava27:
Damn. I was looking forward to swimming with my s7
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Toss3:
You are wrong - Samsung specifically says it is IP68 certified which means: First number: 6 - Dust tight - No ingress of dust; complete protection against contact (dust tight) Second number: 8 - Immersion beyond 1 m - The equipment is suitable for continuous immersion in water under conditions which shall be specified by the manufacturer. However, with certain types of equipment, it can mean that water can enter but only in such a manner that it produces no harmful effects.	Test duration: continuous immersion in water

Depth specified by manufacturer, generally up to 3 m

Source
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] CuBz90:
You're thinking of the S5. The S7 is IP68 which is waterproof up to a certain depth, Samsung state this depth is up to 1.5m for up to 30mins. That's waterproof. Samsung also had one on display in a fountain to advertise this.

EDIT: I guess I was wrong. Thanks jimm22
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jmm22:
No, you don't understand what resistant and proof mean. Waterproof means that is can stay in water indefinitely and at any depth, water resistant means it will remain waterproof for a certain amount of time at a certain pressure (depth). The IP68 rating on phones is water resistance, not truly waterproof. The designation just confuses people who don't bother reading because they title it inaccurately. There's many forums online that explain this.

Please show me where Samsung said that consumers can use the phone underwater and while swimming?

EDIT: I'll help, look at moisture protection 8 (http://www.cnet.com/how-to/water-dust-resistance-ratings-in-gadgets-explained/) it is for accidental submersion and splashing. It is not waterproof and meant to be used underwater. It's accident protection, not an actual usage feature. The whole idea of "waterproof" is marketing, not fact. Anyone who reads up about IP68 knows this.

A device needs to be 50M water resistant before you ever swim with it. The IP68 isn't even close.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] xbkingx:
I'd imagine they would want to test for shorts before allowing the full current. Just brainstorming, but an easy way to do this would be to run a voltage test across different pins and detect any drops or jumps. If there is an unexpected change, prevent charging. This would explain why the extra long cables might trip the warning.

Also, it is probably possibly to submerge the phone and not get the ports or speakers wet. With holes that small, you're very likely to get air trapped air bubbles. If you want to really test it, submerge the phone and give it a few vigorous shakes to dislodge the bubbles.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] xxaarraa:
I am not really interested in pedantic arguments over what waterproof really means - I have expensive watches and fully aware of what 'proof' and 'resistant' really mean. IP68 means I can dunk it in a few inches of water for 10 seconds for a quick photo. Period. Tmobile posted an underwater unboxing video and Samsung made a big deal about the phone "being sealed from the inside" so customers are well within their rights to expect the phone to hold up to 10 seconds in a puddle.

In other news.... phone now charges. But won't fast charge, only regular charge. I will give it a few more hours to determine if fast charge is working again. I am not sure if the phone is sophisticated enough to switch to a 'safe mode' and not allow charging for a certain amount of time after moisture is detected, or if it's just slowly waking back up without any software fail safes. I've been using it this entire time so its working like champ, issue limited to charging.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] TheGoD:
I don't know, but the real question is if they actually refused a warranty repair because of water damage w/o proof that the customer misused the phone in any way. Whats written in the warranty policy isn't really that relevant here.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] CuBz90:
I suppose, but after 6 months it's up to the consumer to prove it wasn't caused by misuse. That's hard to prove.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] TheGoD:
That is only the mandatory warranty in the store. The voluntary warranty that the OEM gives you doesn't change over its course unless specified. And I still don't believe that Samsung is allowed to advertise an use case for the product that voids its OEM warranty.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Nathan-NL:
At least with regards to the Z3 Compact this was only temporary until the phone was completely dry again.

But I would not recommend getting your phone wet if you can help it. Because it could have a manufacturing defect, like too little glue or something like that.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Tanner1294:
The speaker thing isn't an actual problem. You'll find it with any water resistant phone because all that is happening is water sits underneath the speaker grill, on top of the speaker cone. So it's suppressing the cone until it dries off. It's just like if you put your finger on a speaker while it is playing, not a malfunction.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Toss3:
The IP68 clearly states it can be submerged for 30 minutes at a depth of 1.5m. So unless it can survive that it is false advertising.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jackdforme:
It's not false advertising. IP ratings are a bit fickle in that the manufacturer can attach multiple IP ratings to a device. So although the IP 68 states over a meter and a half, it is up to the manufacturer to state their own limit. Samsung states this in their advertising. They do not certify the phone for let's say IP66 as well. That would protect the phone against liquid high pressure streams. You can always certify for more than one liquid or solid ingress. This phone is certified only for immersion.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Toss3:
How about reading the official IP documents instead of cnet's "guide"? Didn't mean that the device was fully waterproof, but to me the IP68 rating and even the freaking user manual states that it can be submerged in water and survive. That means you can go swimming with it as long as you don't keep it in deeper water than 1.5m for 30 minutes (as Samsung themselves state). Cannot believe how many people that post shut like this on these forums these days. Do you own Samsung stock or something?

What about "Protected from long term immersion up to a specified pressure." do you not understand? Did you even read what the OP said? He took one picture in shallow water. That would equal dropping it in the toilet and in this case the phone didn't survive. That is not how it should be and I would definitely be pissed off at Samsung if this was my phone especially after Samsung clearly advertised it as a phone you can dunk in water without having issues.

---------- Post added at 05:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:33 AM ----------

Again Samsung were the ones to state 1.5m depth and 30 minutes. IP68 means at a depth beyond 1m. Then it is up to the manufacturer to state for how long etc.Did you even read the manual? Here let me quote it for you: "Do not immerse the device in water deeper than 1.5 m and keep it submerged for more than 30 minutes. Do not expose the device to water moving with force, such as running water from taps, ocean waves, or waterfalls.".
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] rahim05:
Does it quick charge bow?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jmm22:
You do realize the CNET guide is a copy of the IP guidelines right?

Swimming also creates more force than simple submersion (same as water moving with force), which is why you aren't supposed to swim with anything less than 50M resistance. The IP68 is for accidental drops into water, not forceful movement or any movement that exceeds the force exerted by immersion at 1.5M of static water. Which means moving your phone around under water could easily exceeds the force.

Regardless, there's no way to prove how deep or for how long the device is submerged, Samsung can simply deny warranty coverage because you can't prove a story. That's just the facts, if you want to be condescending and wrong again then go somewhere else.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] basic086:
Sorry, don't want to be rude at all or anything, but why would someone dunk their new 700$+ phone in the water just to test the waterproof feature ? If I was to buy the S7 now, I wouldn't even dare to use it without a case lol

But then again, it's your money and if playing with your phone under water gets you off, then there is nothing wrong with it :)

I'm glad that people report their feedbacks on XDA tho, always a good thing :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Toss3:
That's the difference between the US and Europe because here Samsung has to prove that it was used in an improper fashion. The picture the OP took would easily prove that it was only dunked in shallow water. You know at the mwc they had the S7 put into a fountain, so I'm sure it will also survive showers and short swims without issues (with swimming I basically meant being in a pool/bathtub taking underwater photos). Guess the OP was just unlucky in this case, but it i's charging at least.

---------- Post added at 08:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:25 AM ----------

Because it was advertised as such? Did you look at the T-Mobile ad? Pretty sure it will survive these things without any issues, or else Samsung is in a heap of trouble.

Did you take a look at the T-Mobile underwater unboxing and no, there isn't a "don't try this at home" warning, even while it is an american add, where you have to tell that it isn't a good idea to dry your hamster in the microwave and yes, I'm aware the accessoirs are also under water and won't work there, but it clearly advertises how the device can be used under water.

Also, I have a IP67 certified LG G watch r, I every day shower with it and was indeed swimming with it already (with a little bad feeling there in my stomach in must confess though) without any problems (but yes, I won't recommend it still at the s7).

[MENTION=1134447]xxaarraa[/MENTION] maybe check in where you bought the device, could be your internal sealing isn't fully functional and even while it backs out with warranty, there's still the refund policy of 14 days, which should also cover switching.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] xxaarraa:
wow this thread has gotten interesting. Too many jackass self-professed experts lecturing us on what they googled from cnet. As i said before, customers are entirely within their rights to expect an ip68 rated phone to hold up to a 10 second underwater photo. I have zero interest in your lectures on whether i can swim the english channel with it at 4000 feet underwater - you must read the use case i posted in this situation again before posting.

To the person asking why i took an $800 phone and dunked it in water, its because I expect good stuff i buy to hold up to the advertised standards.

Overall update - still no quick charge, spoke to tmobile tech support and they agreed 100% that phone should not be doing this. They put me in touch with samsung who didn't have a clue about the situation. So phone is going back to tmobile under buyers remorse, already have a return label from tmobile.

I didn't quite like the phablet size or the silver color anyway, after my days with the nexus 6 and note 4 ive firmly moved on from big phones. So I returned the S7E and have a black regular S7 on pre-order again. Till it arrives, its back to my trusty old s6 edge.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] DDz_1888:
I would rather use a wireless charging if I would put my phone under the water. If try to charge your phone when the port is wet, the electricity will destroy contact points even if the phone will say moisture detected and stops charging. Because the charger is still supplying electricity to the cable and contacts, you will most likely damage your phone if don't disconnect them immediately.

So, when you saw your first pop-up, and you still left it like that, you just killed your brand new phone! :(

And also, if you expose your 'water-resistant' phone to a pressurized water, i.e. flowing water, direct shower, swimming, dropping into water with speed and etc, the water will break into seals and you will kill your phone.

Samsung phones are generally very well designed, but many people aren't.:rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] JasonJoel:
Sounds like your phone is working as advertised, unless your fast charging indeed was broken. I may have missed it if you said it did/didn't after drying further.

IP68 means it will survive, not that everything will work correctly while under water, or immediately after taking it out.

If everything went back to working after thoroughly drying out, then it did exactly what it was supposed to do.
