[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] CWGraf71:
I have a question about the custom boot screen with a unlocked paddlelock.* What does this custom screen mean that it has been rooted or sim unlocked and what are the benefits or disadvantages of removing that custom screen? I bought this phone on eBay it was on PG1 I rooted it lasted about two weeks and then downgraded to PE1,* my phone gets hot. often it is very hot, last screen capture I believe is at 170 degrees for the CPU and* 100+ degrees for the battery, when it gets really really hot that's when the phone seriously lags.

Mine is the g930p and is/was sim unlocked.* I am a little confused by all these firmwares and the U versions, I understand it's the universal version, what does that mean for performance or pros/cons?

I've never had to deal with a sim card b4 so I'm not familiar.

I'm reading many forums and being directed here and there for minor/major changes to make the best out of this phone, which is getting to be a lot that I can't keep it straight enough to feel comfortable in upgrading/rooting this phone.

Maybe part of the reason is that I absolutely DESPISE this phone!

Out of 465 apps only 88 are the ones that I've added, the phone battery drains so quickly.* This was the reason why I didn't want to upgrade because I'm unable to swap the battery like b4. If I had to take the bus I would take two or three batteries with me for the whole day. I can't do that anymore, this thing runs 25 minutes just checking email losing 13% of battery and would take longer than 25 minutes to recharge that 13% and is almost impossible to charge the phone and use the phone at the same time without it reaching 170 degrees temperature.

I think why the phone only last 2 weeks the first time was because I disabled that things that may not have been a good a wise idea.* What I've done this time as Frozen everything that I can possibly think of through the phone itself and then through titanium backup but then I use a firewall to block any Communications from these apps that are running that don't need to be running/using data but they think they're running I guess preventing a trigger to cause it to lag.* This has dramatically improved the speed of my phone, more time is needed to see if the battery life is getting any better.

I use an app called TeamViewer, on this phone it will get super hot and battery drains very quickly.* On my Samsung Transform Ultra, my old phone, I can use that app all day long before the battery decides to drain.* What gives, why would it be so much different when the old phone isn't the best processor, doesn't have that much RAM.* Why do the new phones do this,* is it the other 300 some odd apps that are doing stuff that need to be shut down and without it causing havoc on the phones battery and temperature?

PS. The temperature on the phone has gotten so hot that it has literally Cause 2 phone cases to become fragile and crumble.

I want to find something else and sell this one hopefully that will work out because this is just BS at its finest coming from the carriers, google, and the government.* I bought this phone out right, it's mine and mine to do so with what I please. It used to be a rights in this country but then again may not be any more, I'll have to find out.
