[LG V20 Questions & Answers] mahdibassam:
I was in the exact same bought. I had an S7E, then bought Note 7, then had to return Note 7, so bought an iPhone 7 Plus. Stayed on the iphone for about 3 days, but couldnt take it anymore so bought an S7E again. Then I started missing the 5.7 inch screen so went for V20 !

In my honest opinion after trying out every damn option out there is that they are ALL THE SAME. I really say which is BETTER between Note 7, iphone7+, S7E, and even Pixel XL. They are all good. Sure, each one have advantages but thats about it. Neither one has a BAD camera. neither has a BAD screen, you know ?

Now considering that, the key thing for me boils down to price. and that is different in each part of the world. here in New Zealand, i have to pay 1600$ for a 128GB iPhone 7 Plus, 1400$ for 128GB Pixel XL, and 900$ for V20 or S7E. So the choice is clear really.

Between S7E and V20, i would defintly go for V20 having tried both. once the S7e gets the final non-beta nougat update and receives all the features the Note 7 had, then it can contend with V20.

at the end of the day, i am thankful for so many good options ! haha

SO just to clarify, if you need to add alot of money on top of your S7E for a V20, then i wouldnt suggest doing it, because you dont REALLY get anything extra, especially when the Nougat update hits the S7e. but if you dont have to add much money and you are looking for something new, then you will definitely love the V20.

IS the unlocked version worth it even though it's missing wifi calling?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] anilhk:
No. I sold my LG V20 today. very bad battery life, I had running out of battery in 6 hours. I had Note 7 and had been using all Note series. S7E is the best option for you right now. I bought Huawei Mate 9 and I'm very happy, I like it because I have also been using Mate 8 before. I don't think you will consider it, so my suggestion is to stick with S7E.

LG V20. best android I've had in awhile.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] mahdibassam:
Well you are.l certainly the odd one out in terms of your opinion, not many seem to agree with u you :)
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] anilhk:
Yes, knew some of you will feel like that. Me and my brother bought my LG V20 after reading reviews here for all the good functions, especially the battery life. I had a spare battery set, but then if the battery lasts only 6-7 hours, then even 2 batteries weren't enough. I have installed Accubattery and it showed sometimes it drains 1700 to 2000 ma per hour. Even if I would turn off the data and WiFi. I even tried Greenify. Even blocked background data for many apps. Maybe my model here in Hong Kong is more affected. But anyway, after receiving 3 updates, it was still same, looks like all updates were for security patches. I miss my Galaxy Note 7, but Huawei Mate 9 gives me similar feel, except the waterproofing, which I don't think is going to be a big problem.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Pick_A_Name:
Wow my N7 standby and general battery life was crap. My V20 battery life has been great. Standby on N is great on all devices, so I'm not sure why yours was that bad. Did you check for an errant app? I haven't needed the spare battery, but it's nice to know I can get one.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] mahdibassam:
Well my friend, I will have to tell you that you had two defective units! That doesn't sound normal at all.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Blues fan:
Is the shattergate issue enough to stay away from the V20?

I'm wondering the unlocked version minus wifi calling does it work the same as the carrier version?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Pick_A_Name:
I've dropped mine before getting a case with no issues and again with a case and screen protector. The screen protector did its job and have it's life and nothing has happened with the lens glass despite two drops from waist high. Personally I think people have dropped their phones and are looking for someone else to pay. But that's just my opinion.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] jeep447:
That's pretty much the same thing I thought when I heard about this problem for a couple of reasons.. the camera lens claimed to be effected sticks out from the back of the phone so it's almost like a bullseye when dropped, and I'll be the first to argue anything is always possible so you never know but if it really is happening spontaneously, then it means they'd almost have to be installed under constant pressure which just doesn't seem very likely. Anything is possible though so I can only imagine how frustrating it it would be if you really didn't drop your phone but the camera lens still cracked by itself.. I can see myself losing my mind knowing that people don't believe me lol.

[TIP] How to disable hardware key and enable soft key in mi5s/mi5s plus

Mi5S and Mi5S plus has hardware key

When you play a game horizontally, the game might turn off by mistake.

You need to deactivate the hardware button to prevent this.

A necessary thing

- a rooted phone

- root explorer (you need to modify system file)

1. Go to /system/build.prop and add qemu.hw.mainkeys=0

2. Go to /system/usr/synaptics_dsx.kl and add # on last lines like

[before]

key 139 MENU VIRTUAL

key 102 HOME VIRTUAL

key 158 BACK VITRUAL

key 143 WAKEUP

[after]

#key 139 MENU VIRTUAL

#key 102 HOME VIRTUAL

#key 158 BACK VITRUAL

key 143 WAKEUP

You can make #key 143 WAKEUP and home button can be completely disabled.

(Only the power button can light the screen. not home button)

(mi5s plus doesn't has key 143 WAKEUP because mi5s plus doesn't have home button to light the screen)

3. Reboot!

You can revert these steps to enable hardware key again

and you can find hardware key light settings at Settings - Additioal Settings - Button

[Xiaomi Mi 5s Guides, News, & Discussion] wpyh:
You can also do this with Magisk. I will try to upload a module.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Guides, News, & Discussion] wpyh:
Try this module. It works on my Mi 5S running xiaomi.eu 9.5.2.0 ROM.

What this module does is it replaces the file /system/usr/synaptics_dsx.kl, commenting out this line:

key 143 WAKEUP
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Guides, News, & Discussion] Chaninoza:
This only disables waking up the screen with the home button?
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Guides, News, & Discussion] wpyh:
Yes. Should I also make modules for other functions? Like disabling all the buttons like the OP said?
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Guides, News, & Discussion] Chaninoza:
If u want to, im just interested in the one u posted
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Guides, News, & Discussion] wpyh:
Well, someday I might submit this to the Magisk repo. Actually I don't think we need to switch the Menu and Back buttons, because they can be switched via the Settings app -> System & Device / Additional Settings -> Button and gesture shortcuts -> Button Positions / Navigation buttons, at least on Xiaomi.eu ROM it's available. I think it's also available on the original ROMs (China and Global) as well.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Guides, News, & Discussion] wpyh:
These modules actually implement the original post.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Blues fan:
I currently have an S7 Edge I got when I had to return my Note 7. Is it worth the money to switch to the V20 unlocked version that BH sells even though it doesn't offer Wifi Calling? Also I hear about the camera glass breaking on it as well easily.

Finally, would the iPhone 7 Plus be a better alternative to the V20?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] chanchan05:
Is there any particular reason why you want to switch? From reviews I've been seeing from actual users, the V20 can't match the Edge.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Blues fan:
I get bored with phones lol. I had the s7 edge back in march, then bought the Note 7 then had to return that and got the Edge. Nearly got the iphone plus instead of the Edge but it was out of stock. Now i see the v20 with a larger screen and more features.

Also better cases for teh v20 that are more protective because it has a flat screen. Im using a Defender for the Edge which this screen protector actually fits tight to the screen but you have to tap hard because it's a thicker kind of plastic. Im thinking about getting Speck candygrip shell for it and sticking with the edge maybe.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Chord_Hugo87:
we are not the worm in your stomach, why would we know what you want to do? ask yourself that then decide for yourself.

I switch to Iphone 7 for a month, couldnt live without root and xposed then came back to S7 edge.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] emann56:
When I returned my note 7, I tried both and had to return both. The problem you are going to have is the screen quality. Samsung makes the best screens on a smartphone. To me the LG v20 and iPhone was terrible compared to the s7 edge. That is the main reason why I bought the s7e, the screen is amazing. (also camera and battery life was good too.)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] shahriar01:
iPhone 7 plus

I also wanted to buy iPhone 7 plus but it was out of stock, instead I bought S7 edge. In my opinion, I see LGv20 as a downgrade from s7 edge. There's no doubt that iPhone 7 plus is the fastest phone you can buy. I really miss iMessage, FaceTime, great stand by time, way better app performance and excellent Siri features. However, the only thing you will be missing on an iPhone is Fast charging. That's the only reason I am staying with s7 edge and I hope that Apple releases the next iPhone with fast charging feature.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] chanchan05:
You won't get wireless charging too.

Windows XP would also run as the fastest OS on PC if you can manage to install it on modern PCs. That's why iOS is so blazing fast. If you're a casual user, iOS may be an option. But for some of us, we feel too limited by it. I can't even set it ti automatically change brightness and screen on time based on what app is in the foreground, at least maybe without having to jailbreak. On Android that's just a couple of minutes to set up.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Shuthefrontdoor:
I get bored quickly also I've had my s7e since release, I tried switching to iphone7 plus had for two days couldn't stand it sold it, then I bought a pixel xl which I did like a lot but the camera wasn't as good as s7e, which my wife still had an s7e so I was constantly comparing pics side by side but ultimately I returned the pixel also because I couldn't live with 32gb phone. So now I'm back to my awesome s7e, amazing it still reigns supreme after releasing so long ago. As for the v20, not impressed enough to even want to try it, why aren't you considering pixel xl? I think s7e and pixel xl are androids of the year
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] chanchan05:
If you're bored with a top of the line Android, root it an slap a custom ROM on it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] ssgunner20:
Only other phone i would consideris the iphone 7 plus if i was wanting to switch. Imessage, facetime and siri all suck! Better app performance is subjective. Been with apple before and hate being limited to do stuff. Battery life is superb with iphones granted that is the only thing i miss. Multitasking is much better on this s7 edge than previous iphones. Havent tried the 7 though but highly doubt much has changed. The s7 edge is the closest thing to the note 7 which i love. Why would u consider a total different ui is beyond me. To each their own but i for one wont be tied by the sack by apple.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] paralnova:
There is no auto brightness in ios??? Wtf? Really?

And for you op, you change a lot of phones. Do the mother nature a favor and stick with your s7e. ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] BigBen60:
I'm getting bored with my S7 edge, but I would never change to an iPhone because iOS is way to closed. The only way to open it is by jailbreaking it, but Apple is hunting the jailbreak and it's getting harder and harder to jb...

I'll buy a One+ 3T soon, then a One 4 or maybe Pixel 2 depending on the design
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] chanchan05:
Not autobrightness. That's different from what I'm talking about. For example you open a game, you want autobrightness to turn off automatically, then turn on back when you exit a game. Or when going into Chrome, you want screen on time to automatically change from 1min to 10 minutes. That can be done on Android via stuff like Tasker.

But I've never seen any of my friends on iOS have autobrightness. It's always real dark or blinding bright.

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] Lord of the Badgers:
GPS: Why do we need it IN the dual - I much prefer the battery life dividends that my Bluenext GPS receiver brings me. 25+ hrs (quoted) continuous... if it was in the Touch surely it'd be a real battery drain?

WiFi is different though. I respect it's also a battery drain, but I wouldn't have minded that for the occasional use. There's no bluetooth wifi adaptors out there?

Just my take :)

The moto 360 works well, expected I guess since it's motorola. If I was gonna buy a new smart watch I'd buy the Polar m600.

[X Play Accessories] RozzaMan:
This is possibly a dumb question, but do all of these smart watches connect via BT? I'd like one but BT really kills my battery to the point where I need to charge before the end of the day.

[X Play Accessories] pijes:
Yes they connect via BT and unfortunately mxp only has a 4.0 BT.

4.1 and later versions have better power management. perhaps you could use apps like automate/tasker/macrodroid to only enable BT when you need and switch it off automatically when you don't.

[Nexus 6P Accessories] live4vball:
I love my Martian Notifier, but it might not be what you're looking for. It's much more of a notification assistant than a smartwatch. Basically notifications get forwarded to your watch so you don't have to pick up your phone to see what's making your phone ring or buzz, but if you want to do anything about it you'll have to pull the phone out to respond. Upside is it looks much more like a normal watch than the others (they're more like a second screen on your wrist with simpler apps, this is a watch with a ticker and vibration motor) and that the battery lasts about 5 days or so before needing recharging (the rechargeable battery is for the notifications only, there's a separate watch battery for the time-keeping part). Lastly, it's dirt cheap compared to the Gear Fits of the world...
