[Note 7 Questions & Answers] gekkehenkie11:
So, an update after a couple of days of (intensive) usage (and before sending the device back because of the Samsung recall). First of all the screen, it has grown on me, it really has his 'WOW' effect when you see certain colourful photo's. But one thing that really has started to disappoint me is the smoothness of the UI. In my previous post I was still very happy about it but if you use the phone a while you'll start to notice that it really has its moments when it's just lagging as hell. Scrolling in Chrome is good 90% of the times but in those 10% of the times it's just really stuttering and I personally just hate that. The settings menu is even worse, that's smooth 70% of the times and 30% of the times it's choppy and (micro) stuttering. The 6p just really beats the N7 in terms of smoothness, hands down. For the rest, the N7 is the winner, with its faster fingerprint scanner, (way)faster and a bit better camera, faster app starting time, faster 3d gaming, sdcard, iris scanner (which is more than a gimmick imho, it works really nice) and, most importantly, WAY more beautiful design.

I have a lot of love for the 6p but it has never been the perfect phone for me, because of the display and the design. I now have a lot of love for the N7 but I know already that this won't be my perfect phone neither, the lag and stuttering that happens randomly is just irritating me (already) too much. Frikking Samsung just can't get it right.

I wish Samsung would make the Nexus one day ....
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] @home:
No Lag or Stutter on my Note 7. Infact mines pretty close being perfect. So far not a bit of bother, so far. Better than my awful N6P ever was.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] gekkehenkie11:
Sorry but I just dont buy that. I'm on an Exynos, which is generally faster than the Snapdragon (and I've seen more reports on the snapdragon stuttering). Unlocked device, no carrier branded with carrier bloat. Why would mine lag and yours not ? The lag is there, you just might not notice it. And in all fairness, I think the general user doesnt even give a bit about it. But I'm really a sucker for (iphone like) smoothness and the N7 is nowhere close to that. The 6p is.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] @home:
It is what it is. My note 7 doesn't stutter or lag. I'm using it I should know.

The N6p didn't stutter it was just a goddamn awful phone.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] gekkehenkie11:
Well it doesnt stutter in your experience, that's a different thing ;) You don't see it, good for you. But there's really NO reason why my exynos device, unbranded, no carrier bloated, would lag and your device wont. Anyway I'm not going into any further discussion regarding the topic. Good for you that you dont experience lag. For people who really care about it, just believe me, the lag is there.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] @home:
Are you using TW? I'm using Nova.

Do you have FB app installed? I do not.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] gekkehenkie11:
Same here. If you see my other post I was just telling everybody how smooth the interface was. That was my first impression. But if you look deeper and use it longer, then you will start to experience sessions where it just lags
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] @home:
Wow ok. I'll keep a look out.

Where in particular does it happen?

Ta
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] gekkehenkie11:
Chrome for example. Most of the time things are good and smooth, but sometimes it's stuttering quite horribly. It's what I've also read btw on the review at the Dutch site tweakers.net, they said the exact same thing. And there's even a video of how the UI lags, let me find that for you ...

*EDIT* Look at the video here: https://tweakers.net/reviews/4807/samsung-galaxy-note-7-een-van-de-beste-smartphones-tot-nu-toe.html and jump to 4:13, see how he presses the screen, nothing happens, he wants to move his finger again and before he touches the screen the interface reacts, quite a lag there. They call the lag one of the disadvantages of the note 7. And I've seen things like this too. Again, most of the times things sail smoothly, that's why I was so positive at first, but after some time you'll start to notice lag like this and it really starts to irritate if you care about it (again, I think most people do NOT care about it)
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] marktang:
i went from a 6p to note 7. I had the Note 2 & 3 previously and missed the feeling of having a stylus. Both are good phones but Note 7 battery life is bothering me a bit.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] gekkehenkie11:
Just make sure you disable ALL syncing, both samsung services as the google account. Also go to your play store and disable all automatic stuff. I have actually better battery life now on the N7 than on the 6p.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Batfink33:
Interesting. So far I find the Note 7 much smoother and faster than the 6P. It might end up eventually lagging and stuttering but the difference is big at the moment. Very impressed with the Note. Battery life also seems better. In all honesty, the 6P feels very middle range beside the Note.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] gekkehenkie11:
I'm not sure how any device could be smoother than the 6p, let alone a touchwiz based device. What exactly didnt go smooth on your 6p ?
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Batfink33:
It was just very stuttery and jerky. I also had a bit of lag at times. Compared to the Note at the moment it was a pig. Funnily, I also noticed my old S6 Edge performing better than the 6P. I'm beginning to wonder If I've had a faulty 6P!
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] gekkehenkie11:
Odd, my 6p has been blazing fast and fluent like an iphone from the start till the end. There are certainly things I didnt like about the 6p, bluetooth connection was simply not good, I didnt care much for the design, no sdcard bothered me etc. But it's by far the most fluent device I've ever used, I'd say it even beats the iphone 6s. Not sure why you have other experiences there ... Maybe faulty device, maybe something did mess up at some point.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Batfink33:
I've been using custom kernels and I often think the patches that are added cause more harm than good. Lost are placebo, perhaps that's what's been slowing things down.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Nitemare3219:
What is the point in this crap, seriously? Disable EVERYTHING? Maybe a few things you don't use, and probably disable all the Samsung crap. But seriously, a smartphone needs conectivity to be smart. Plug your phones in when you can and reap the benefits of running it with stuff enabled...
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] RidinNerdy:
Funny how all im hearing is crickets now..smhhh no one is gonna keep braggin about they're betrayal to the nexus 6p.?.smh i hate ppl like that once the bandwagon is broke no one else is making noise..smh shame on all you that traded over to the notes..aint no one braggin anymore..
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Batfink33:
WTF?!
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] fastredponycar:
??? What? I traded in my note 7 today due to it having one of the defective (potentially) batteries. Did I go back to my 6P? No. I walked out of the store with a S7 Edge loaner until I can get another Note 7.

Get over yourself. The new Galaxy devices can simply do more stuff than the 6P ever can and for some of us, that is critical.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] RidinNerdy:
Everyone else is quiet tho, this thread was live before the note recall and now there's nothing but silence, why isn't anyone still bragging about it anymore, writing 3-5 essays on how it's better than the nexus?? Huh? Why? Where did the noise go? If everyone is so pridefull about their note why the silence?!!! Why?!! Keep braggin, and to those that still rocking their sim card in their 6p, respect!! To those that switched over and now have nothing, good job![emoji12] [emoji112] pat yourself in the back, see you guys on the Pixel XLside!
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Batfink33:
The Note 7 is still a much better device than the 6P, I've got no regrets at all switching. The 6P served me well for the year I used it but it's done now.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] gekkehenkie11:
I'm just saying, syncing costs battery, because syncing is really horribly implemented in Android. If you run a network tracer you'll see that those sync services are waking up your phone a lot. What happens is that quite a few apps don't want to wake your phone up but once your phone IS woken up by those syncing services, those apps see that your phone is awake and start to do things too, so it's like a cascade. Hence my advice would be to disable them all and do some manual syncing every now and then.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] gekkehenkie11:
Really agreed on this one. It happens a lot to me, having a finger over the speaker of the N7 and you don't hear anything anymore, quite annoying. Also a really big plus of the 6p is the scratch resistance of the glass, my 6p doesnt even have a single scratch after 1 year, while my N7 has 1 deep scratch and like 5 superficial scratches already, after 1 week of using it. Nevertheless, I'm still a fan of the N7, it's my favourite phone ever so far while still there's tons of room for improvement, like scratch resistance glass, stereo speakers, bigger battery, touchwiz memory management and choppy scrolling every now and then
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] krabman:
I still have the Nexi but I'm running the note 7 anyways despite the battery issue because going back is unthinkable at this point. I'm not turning mine in until I can get the replacement. The Nexi stays in the drawer until then after which it will go to one of my kids. It was once IMO the best phone on the market and it is no less excellent for having been surpassed by better hardware. That has occurred though and I like to rock the best until the next thing comes, the 6P is no longer that.

It would seem your butthurt is causing you some angst which is pointless. The latest greatest aways comes and new becomes old. It's just life, let it go.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] @home:
What are you going on about.

I ditched the 6P months ago for the Note 5 & never regretted it for a second. Now I have the Note 7 & feel the same.

Only 2 things the 6p has that's any good....Front speakers & regular updates & that may not be such a good thing remember how everyone rushed to get Lollipop, wow what a pile of junk that was.

The N6p is in the past & has nothing over the Note 7.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] marktang:
I dont really miss my 6p actually other than the front speaker, fast finger print scanner and the updates. My 6p did lag from time to time. Note 7 can do everything that 6p can but better.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] mgymnop:
I don't miss my N6P either. Regarding scratch resistance of the N6P: I have a huge deep scratch just close to the camera lens. Very annoying but it didn't influence photo quality.

6P has the faster fingerprint and more accurate fingerprint sensor but I still think the location on the back is awkward. The 6P can be really slow: Opening Google Play music takes seconds. Choppy scrolling in G+. Never cared about front facing speakers... So early updates and fast fingerprint sensor are the only advantages. Will love my Note 7 again when I get a replacement soon.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] force70:
I sold my 6P but well before the N7....had a note 5 and a 6P and used the note 5 way more than the 6P so figured Id sell it....never did really sit well with me for whatever reason though.

Have a note 7 now (hasnt blown up yet) and think its an amazing device but there is something to be said for nexus devices....the 6P especially.

Sooooooo....Im looking at getting another one lol....wish the gold was available in 128gb, saw one in person and it looks really nice.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Rippley05:
Woah. Someone needs to go play World of Warcraft.

I love my 6p. The Note 7 is just better. It happens. Every year.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] gekkehenkie11:
I've sent back my Note 7 for the battery issue and I'm on the 6p again. Initially I wanted the seller just to send me a new note 7 but I've asked him for a refund now (not sure if he's going to give it though). I liked the Note 7 and if I had to choose between a 6p and note 7, I'd probably choose the Note 7. But to me it really isn't an upgrade from the 6p, both phones have their advantages and disadvantages and in the end, I don't feel it's worth to pay $800-900 for a phone that only is marginally better (in my opinion).

I guess I'll go for the s8 when it comes out, IF it really has that 4k screen.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] i killed tupac:
mine got scratched so easy.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] zanderswigan:
I have a 6p waiting for my note 7 replacement. Battery has seriously degraded on my 6p since I got it 9 months ago. My note 7 worked for a couple of days and the battery life was very impressive. If I get to 15% on my 6p I might as well just turn it off because it just drops almost immediately from there. Took me months to realise that the headphone jack has been machined too big and no headphones fit so I'm sending it back to huawei as soon as my note comes. The 6p is obviously smoother than the note but not by a huge amount for me. The features and design of the Note 7 make it a far better device in my opinion. Slow updates don't really bother me I have nougat on my 6p and I dont think there's any improvement on marshmallow that I couldn't live without. Only real feature updates are things the note 7 has anyway such as split screen and some of my apps don't work since the upgrade. I've had every Nexus since the 4 and honestly just think Google use Nexus users to iron out the bugs on a mainstream release. Sort of like a test pilot. The prices seem to creep up year on year as well so don't really see myself buying another Nexus going forward. Each to their own but Note 7 for me all day.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] medmanschultzy:
So I have a e2353 8Gb (root+unlock bl) and am in desperate need of sweet sweet adoptable storage (adb workaround).

But, Xperifirm only shows one carrier with the 26.3 update, and it is not my cell provider (nor is the generic out).

Any risk of flashing the other carrier? Or should I stay patient until the customized rolls its way to my phone?

Thanks

Take the battery out, then plug it into computer via usb. WDRT should recognize it in emergency mode. About 3 seconds after it says 'flashing' insert battery. Or it might fail. Took me a few attempts on that one. :) WDRT should download the emergency files. Look in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Packages\RM-xxxx. X being the device name. emergency file is called 'emergency_flash_config.xml

Oh yeah, might need to enable 'hidden files' in Folder options. ProgramData a hidden folder

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] antigravity:
Hi everyone

I haven't owned a HTC for a couple of years now- and was wondering, can the firmware be changed on these?

I'm purchasing a model from a different country, and would like to flash the official firmware to a local one (Australia).

I've had a quick look through the forums and haven't found anything obvious.

Is it possible to do this?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] spikeydoo2006:
It is, but you'll need to pay to get the device S-OFF' to enable the flashing of a different regions firmware.

Depending on the region you are importing from you may need to change your MID and CID too, which is why S-OFF is required it also allows you to flash unsigned firmware.

After that you can flash any firmware/RUU.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] antigravity:
Great thanks for the info- when you say pay, is there a tool you have to buy to S-off?

Hello everyone !

I have recently installed CM11 on my Samsung Galaxy Mini and it worked perfectly !

Sadly I have a problem installing GApps with CWM: error 70.

After reading some related post, I suppose that it is caused by a not enough memory in "/system" partition.

I tried to install distintc packages of GApps (micro, pico...) and all of them causes the same error 70.

I dont know if my phone is too old and it is really impossible to install any version of GApps for Android 4.4 in that phone.

Has anybody done it?

Does anyone help me?
