Truest statement yet. I'd take root Yes! Want root Yes!

But i know how to modify it enough ways for my liking without root needed using other methods and similar No root needed apps.

To good of a phone to let go .

BTW I had bashed this device from day 1 once first time around .

And I apologize to the s7 for that and the forum. Already repurchased a 2nd and learning to live without root, kinda tough like not smoking something we can learn to live with .
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] Cryosx:
Only shaky things with the m10 are battery life and s-off. If they get the battery life right and s-off is achieved the phone will be a winner, maybe. The m9 didn't quite get nearly as much development as the m8. I'm itching to get xposed and root so bad... I really want to fix some of the ugly and get my media gestures back. The edge is nice but the phone can get chuggy here and there and with Samsung seemingly more invested in the exynos version it might be a good idea for me to get the 10 or wait for the Nexus.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] eduardmc:
Not to go against u but here was my experience with both. I. Really waanted to retur. The galaxy s7 edge and keep my nexus 6p. Which was rooted, stock rom, custom kernel. Was smooth and fast.

I receive my gs7 edge and the nexus 6p was not faster but smoother in alot of occasions. Was noticably slower. After a few days of switch sim from one phone to another i did like the galaxy s7 edge but didnt like the color gold. I went to the store and exchanged it for a black. Started doing the testing again of using both phone cause i still had a few days to return the gs7 edge if there was something i didnt like.

Im not sure if my gold was a lemon version cause i couldnt compare to amything else but the black version i got is much better in speed and lag. This flys and butter smooth MUCH MORE SMOOTHER lag free than the nexus 6p. I for one are not into custom room, thr most important thing for me is getting better battety life with my nexus 6p i was able tl jump from 4 sot to 6sot with a different kernel. I get 10sot with my gs7 edge nom root. My i root for adaway, and i do love the samsung browser let me install adblocker. No ad anymore.

Nexus 6p amazing phone, still have it but im not using it. In speed and lag tge nexus 6p even with stock android cannot compare to the smoothnes and speed of the galaxy s7 edge.

I've been a avid rooter since the tmobile wing days. And having the s7 edge for just about a month so far, I don't have the itch to want to root it like I usually do. It's a really nice phone inside and out.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] PsychoKilla666:
I think both arguments for the S7 Edge and G5 are pretty fair in this thread. Besides the pushing of one's taste on top of what makes a phone better.'

I have to admit I am very disappointed with the locked bootloader on my S7 Edge, however, if I wasn't so annoyed by the software I wouldn't have minded as much.

The touchscreen is very sensitive and I have had a bunch of annoying screen turn on and accidental presses.

The TouchWiz launcher is awful, the app drawer setup is infuriating. I instantly installed Google Now Launcher and luckily always have Nova Prime at the ready.

If I hadn't found the DPI hack for the S7 Edge I would have definitely used Nova but now I can enjoy a wider field of view in Google Now launcher which is nice.

I absolutely hate that Samsung felt they had to remove the Android emojis with their own iOS copies. Thankfully Textra was able to fix that 90% with emoji skins.

I hate the call ended screen so much on TouchWiz and I couldn't find a way to turn it off. Replacing the dialer has not helped. Although I added my fav. 3rd party dialer

The TW lockscreen is awful. Click AND Swipe when Smart Lock is on is Unacceptable. Does anyone know a good lockscreen that follows AOSP behavior?

Is it me or did Samsung forget an easy way to change the lockscreen, thankfully it can easily be changed through Gallery.

I know a lot of these app replacements I might still have to do on the G5 I ordered today, but I am sure that the core system will be more to my liking [except DPI hack]

I also have more faith that there will be a bootloader unlock program through LG.

I have to thank Samsung and T-Mobile for basically funding my G5. BOGO S7E, pay off 2nd, unlock, sell, Free G5

I took the plunge on the G5 due to the free goodies and the other S7E will stay my dedicated VR headset for Premium content and watching my LG 360° Cam videos.

I really love the hardware and the looks of the S7E, even the Edge looks nice, but it has usability issues. I have large hands and the phone is slightly too tall [+ OMG fingerprints]

I'll report back with what infuriates me about the G5 when I get it, Cheers!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] PapaMag:
Well well people are opting out and I just ordered my s7 Edge and should have it by Monday.

I realize that it's locked but I'm also confident somewhere down the road some really really smarts guys and gals will make a break through. When they do I will come out of retirement and theme the hell out of this device.

1+ that's why I'm keeping mines this thing is so smooth
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] anactoraaron:
Opinions are good and they may vary. I still have my G4, but the S7 Edge is my DD. I wouldn't even think about returning it to preorder any LG device. Why?

1- The G4 was a buggy POS upon release and it took them 3 MONTHS to fix touchscreen issues (which you would think would have been important to QA).

2- BL unlock applied to H815 (international) variants only. Only the H811 (T-Mobile) had the ability to unlock - which it had by default (it was never officially locked until the MM update, and was as easy as "fastboot oem unlock" to remove the lock). Seems like that won't apply to T-Mobile devices going forward, sadly. If you want a device with an unlockable BL, get the international variant of your preferred device or get a Nexus. If you are only returning the S7 edge for a device with an unlockable BL you will very likely be highly disappointed with the G5.

3- Battery life was just terrible on the G4. They knew it, and rigged the battery monitoring on the device to display 100% for an egregiously long time to make it 'feel' like it got great battery life. You NEEDED that extra battery and charger, especially if you played games. 2.5 hrs of screen on or less is expected playing any games or heavy usage.

4- $150 price drop in the first 2 months (perhaps due to poor sales within the first 2 months with the touchscreen issues and buggy behavior/poor battery life of the G4).

5- Marketing dept. overindulging in the device specifications. They ran ads claiming the amazing, most accurate display, etc. except by all accounts the white balance was way too blue (devices averaging around an 8000k white point) and a dE of over 4. See the anandtech review. The display was average at best.

This last point shows me to stay far away from the G5 as the marketing dept is at it again with the ad showing a guy smiling at his G5 as if there's something being displayed with the battery out of it. That's just flat out intentionally deceptive. The device won't work with the battery tray out of the device. The guy in the ad is smiling at a device that's powered off.

As for the G5 in particular, AC said that their device - within the week they had it - the battery tray no longer fit flush with the device. That there is going to be a problem that can't be avoided over time due to the mechanics and materials used, and my OCD wouldn't have any of it. If you MUST get the G5, wait for reviews (especially with the battery tray not being flush and small battery capacity) and then wait 3 months for the almost guaranteed price drop.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] PsychoKilla666:
I do agree with the marketing being deceptive and LG is among the few who milk that pretty hard.

Good point about the battery tray being susceptible to wear and tear. I assume most people don't swap too much, I won't but nice to have.

If there was a BOGO like the S7E ordering a G5 would have been a no-brainer. But the free 360° cam was enough of a deal for me to take the chance.

I was aware of the bootloader unlock only being internation, however, I believe there is at least a chance that T-Mo will fight for inclusion due to the S7 demand and LG actually having a program. I do not see this being a reality with Samsung, or at least less plausible than the slim chance we have with LG

My pre-order shipped and I hope to have it Friday. I'll definitely keep this thread updated.

Cheers

Let us know how the G5 bootloader works out for you.

---------- Post added at 07:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:16 AM ----------

You can unlock the bootloader. Go install TWRP and let us know how that works out. You can't flash anything that is unsigned, its a custom bootloader by LG so the fastboot oem unlock is essentially useless right now. Lots of chatter about it on the G5 forum.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] PsychoKilla666:
yes, you're right. It seems a few people were excited too quickly, myself included.

However, it is a better sign than on the S7/E camp. There's hope LG will include the G5 in the unlock program.

Anyway, I have both phones and will keep one of each. I like both the hardware for their unique reasons.

My daily driver will likely become the one that gets root first
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] igotroot:
Yeah, so I bought 2 G5's. Wife loves it. She's not into rooting etc, but does like the benefits of what I can delete from a phone (bloat) when I do root her phone.

As for me, screen is great, UI is smooth, 6.0 looks great, but that bootloader DM-VERIFY crap......yeah man, yet another obstacle. It's like LG said, "you're gonna have to earn this unlock MFs!!" (In Drake's voice from Blade 3) LOL

If it can't be done...... Maybe the HTC 10 is next.

But so far the phone itself is very nice.

So I'm on the stock rom from Google now and rooted my phone via TWRP to gain access to XPOSED and other goodies, how am I supposed to take the OTA updates?

I know that I can use the flash-all script, but that would wipe my phone. So basically, what do I do?
