[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] smalltownbird:
Thanks for the reply. I bought an S6 on launch day to replace my G4 which was very laggy and had subpar battery life. The S6 was awful. It was even laggier than the G4 and the battery was terrible. I gave it to my wife and then the camera stopped focusing so we got rid of it for a turbo2. I also plan on getting rid of anything Samsung that I can except Samsung pay and all Verizon bloat. I'm hoping that one day they will update it so the SD card ca n become part of the phone storage as well. If you can update tomorrow evening on battery so we can all see how it does. I saw a lot of people in the TMobile forum with 5-6 hours of screen on time which is pretty impressive for a phone without root.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] retsen:
Will do!

One caveat to the smoothness that I'm just now seeing is in chrome on heavy Java filled sites, it's losing some frames/stuttering a little which is a little disappointing but still nowhere near as bad as on the S6. Hopefully when the Samsung browser is updated and works on the Verizon version of the phone we'll see a better browser experience.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] smalltownbird:
How do you think the smoothness compares to the 6P?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] retsen:
It's almost on the same level in most areas of the UI but can't handle chrome like the Nexus 6P can. Zooming in and out of maps is sort of like that too, smoother than the S6 but just not quite there like the nexus.

1st Charge

So I'm still on my first charge where I unplugged yesterday morning and took some screen caps at, more or less, the same time this morning. Not mind-blowing results but I imagine it will only get better after settling in for a week. The only reason I post this at all (my opinion is that any reports on battery in the first week are bogus) is because of the doze that kicked in last night which didn't even drop 1% :eek:

Edit: My screen caps didn't seem to grab my notification bar....my battery was at 36%...still need to figure out these dang fangled internetz and how to put up screenshots and such...

Chrome performance was very disappointing. I switched to lightning + and all is well. Plus the amoled mode and inverted grayscale rendering saves a ton of battery. Chrome was using 24% of battery, lightning + with these settings is only using 5%.

I am returning my Edge for a Note 5.

The edges are messing with me bad. My palms and other fingers are making inputs while holding the phone. Emails and meassges are being sent half completed, messanger chat heads are being opened/closed. Shift, backspace, and side numbers and letters being pressed. Also sometimes the number of inputs prevents additional touches. A few times i had to reposition the phone to continue typing.

I just got it yesterday and haven't purchased a case. But being a work phone, I think it's going to be a constant annoyance.

Super sexy phone otherwise.

It does seem to "freeze" occasionally. Right out of the box I was disabling apps and it locked up. Toggled the screen to refresh but its been randomly freezing occasionally. Probably a software bug. Nothing really noticeable but I've been on it constantly. Could be with the multiple inputs as stated above.

The phone is super slippery.

Bottom line, this requires a case.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] jagrave:
I agree. I made the mistake of not getting a case first. I dropped it at work after having it less than 12 hours. I have 4 tiny tiny marks where the metal meets back glass. I would have taken it back within a couple days if not for that.

I ve hard resetted and same problem

Thanks

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] danielherrero:
Fixed. I post it because someone can have same issue in the future. I hard-resetted many times the device and no luck. When I started any program that used the gps then It was rebooted. Event I created a little C program that simply opened com4 (CreateFile(....)) and same result. Finally I used quickGPS, tried again and It was solved. I suppose something kept corrupt in radio module and quickgps.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epetroka:
Hello,

I am having some serious trouble modifying a ROM. I download the entire ROM in the form of an .img, and thanks to a reRepacker am able to unpack the contents of the rom, each part into individual .img files. I then use file ext4 explorer to open system.img, then save as an ext4. I then use ext2 explorer to open the now ext4 system.img, and I save the contents in a file folder within the unpacked folder. I make all of the edits I need, and then use WinRar to "add to archive' the file folder as an .img. Note that it compresses the size of the file bu about 40%. I then throw the dump folder into the repacker and out spits the new "modified" rom ready to be flashed to the device. I then use the batch tool to "flash" the compute stick. Flash being a relative term because it does not get past the boot image. EVEN IF I EDIT NOTHING and just convert to ext4 to ext2 and then to .img it still won't boot. Maybe this is because I am going from an ext2 to an image? When the file is supposed to be ext4? I'm not quite sure, hence why I ask here. Anyone have any ideas?

ok, that makes more sense. I'm actually looking for the same thing, a stock-like kernel that will allow for a /system root install.

I'm sure there will be games out soon based on the Vulkan API. It'll just take a while since it's a tougher API to work with.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] lexcyn:
It's not vaporware... the Vulkan API is going to be huge. It's going to be supported fully in Android N so maybe once that is released we'll see some apps get updated.

I saw the demo of NFS and Unity so there must be some demos floating around somewhere.

Vulkan will make it easier for devs to port games since it's going to be huge on desktops/consoles as well. Remember this was developed by AMD and "given" to the Khronos group to develop and open source.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] gehx:
Bluetooth metadata (artist, trackname, etc for songs) hasn't worked since 4.4.4 w/ my HTC One M8 on my Kenwood KDC-X997. Lollipop and now Marshmallow will not display the artist name and track title. Kenwood is probably done issuing firmware updates for this headunit (the last one was Jan 2014). Does anyone know of a decent head unit that fully supports Bluetooth metadata from android phones running the latest version (Marshmallow). It's quite frustrating to know this feature works in older versions of android; it's kept me from updating to the latest version. And I don't wanna buy a new head unit unless I'm 100% certain that the artist name and track title will display when streaming music from my phone; I use Google Play Music.

A couple of questions about this. Firstly is xposed framework safe to use on the Xperia e4? The warning message about bricking nerved me out a little bit as I can't find info about running it on this phone online.

Also, does anyone know if there is a custom recovery for the e4? Obviously I need to be able to make and recover a nandroid to use xposed safely. I did find one thing on google, but with there only being one mention of it and it not being on xda I'm not sure I trust it. Unfortunately theres not a lot of info available here about this particular phone as we don't have our own subforum.
