[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Highspeed123:
DisplayMate stated that it's a better and more efficient panel, thus giving it their highest ever rating. How have you tested the S8 if you don't own it? They also need a few charge cycles to get the best out of them. You would need to do testing over days to get a fair comparison. You're also comparing the S7 Edge to the regular S8. The S8 should be compared to the regular S7 as that's the model it's replacing.

All the things I have read so far and the YouTube videos I have watched suggest that the battery life is good for a Samsung device. They don't have the best battery life but it's hitting the average. Over a year the gap could be pretty big as S7 loses a lot of capacity over time.

[youtube]X7P5xqKsce4[/youtube]

That suggests the S8 has similar battery life to S7E and the S8+ has longer battery life. I'll test myself once I get the phone.

I've had a 3900 mAh battery in my 5.2" 1440p AMOLED Moto XT1225 as has my wife, since 2014. It wasn't the SIZE of the battery that caused the Note 7 explosions, it was Samsung poor design and then poor quality control. Yes, at two factories.

You fit a bigger battery by making the phone a little thicker. THAT is where you get some extra space. NO ONE is asking for credit card slimness. You're going to put a case on it anyway. ;) I have ballistic nylon infused with Kevlar backing (yes it will stop a bullet for you in a bad neighborhood), and I STILL have a Ditztronic case.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] androidbuff123:
I did some calculations to find the true size of the screen between iphone 7s plus and S8+... Most people think 6.2" screen is much bigger than 5.5" screen.. but really what matters is the area of the screen. In that regard, the iphone 7s plus has a screen area of 12.93 sq. in... while the S8 has a screen area of 13.23 sq. in. The S8+ has a screen area of 15.122 sq. in.

This mean, S8 has 2% more screen area than 7Plus, S8+ has 17% more area than 7plus. The bizarre aspect ratio of the S8 family makes it possible for Samsung to cram in this size. Because of the weird aspect ratio , the S8 screen for example is only 2.54" wide as opposed to on the 7plus where it is 2.7" wide.,(even though S8 has technically larger screen size), and the 2.7" is is pretty much the same width as that of S8+

Of course, lack of bezels on the S8+ means you fit the same 2.7" in a smaller footprint.

For those going from the 7plus to the S8, it would make sense to go to the S8+.. otherwise you may find the S8 smaller compared to the 7 plus.

If you go with the S8 you'll get only 2% bigger area AND your screen size is narrower (2.54" vs 2.7" on the iphone 7 plus).
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BarryH_GEG:
We're mixing metaphors. There's are two sets of comparisons published by DisplayMate. What's highlighted in red takes in to account the S8's larger screen area and higher brightness. Blue is adjusted so that the display areas are equivalent. On an equivalent basis the S8's screen is as efficient as the S7's in spite of it being brighter. Taking in to account the S8's additional screen area it's less efficient than the S7's.

Samsung's said Exynos 8895 is 40% more efficient than 8890. 8895 also has an integrated modem so the modem being on a 10nm die should make it more efficient as a by product. It's presumed the S8 is using DDR4x memory which is also more power efficient. So if those three things are greater than the additional power draw of the larger display than the S8 will have better battery life than the S7. I'd assume the bogie for Samsung was to match the S7 and S7e which provided competitive battery life. If my S8+ gets similar battery life to my S7e I'll be a happy camper.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Biggenz:
Alas, I picked up my new S8+ last night after I said I would wait for the S9. Only because I got it for a ridiculous price, but here I am stuck with my cheeseboard for a phone. Lol.

I must say I haven't been this blazé about a new phone in a long time. It's still in its box sitting here next to me. Maybe that's a good thing as I don't use cases or screen protectors and won't feel so sorry for it. :P
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] PraiseTheFiddle:
After unlocking my bootloader on my NEM L-21 I installed TWRP too, it all worked fine and well and then I decided to flash a CM13 ROM, before doing that I wiped my cache and userdata, I tried flashing it but then it threw me errors about not being able to mount /cust, I decided to restart it and leave it for later but now after restarting I can't boot into my system.

It restarts by itself if I try booting into the system, booting into the erecovery is useless since it cant find a firmware for my phone to download, and whenever I try booting into TWRP it gets stuck on a screen with "Your device is booting now...".

Any ideas on how to access TWRP or possibly flash the stock rom? Fastboot refuses to do it.
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Shubho20:
Download the official firmware. Extract it using "huawei update extractor". There u will find recovery. Put ur phone in bootloader mode, by volume - & power button. Flash the recovery. Put the dload folder in ur sdcard. Then by the three button procedure, flash it.

Hello !

I have a Z5 Premium DUAL sim (E6833), and i was wandering if it is Quick Charge compatible !

[Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wan.bOii:
Not sure if the following statement is due to me over-charging or perhaps the charger/cable but I bought Aukey Turbo Charger (PA-U28) couple of months back and after about a month of using it on my Z5 Premium, the battery bloated so far out that the back cover peeled off the phone. I went on eBay to purchase another battery and replaced it not long after that. :eek:

Hi I was just wondering should I be worried, I was messing around with my phone tweaking it and installing a few mods and my CPU temperature went all the way up to 38 degrees Celsius, I'm not sure if this is normal or not? Please respond
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Geeks Empire:
if you install mod to boost performance or overclock cpu you should expect higher temperature.

however 38 c is not too high. have you tested temperature before those modifications?

How did you read-out the CPU temperatures?

Becaus 38c CPU is really low if you do heavy use your phone.

[LineageOS Questions & Answers] Ibuprophen:
I would like to pass along some of my knowledge that can be extremely helpful to know.

I would like to point out the value of the Official Lineage Wiki.

The link, below, has a list of All the links to the Content, within the Wiki, to include the various information for all the devices that, so far, has had any type of LineageOS releases:

All Content for LineageOS

Now I'll point out just some of the device specific information within that Wiki link specific to your issues.

First) Within that Wiki link, Just locate your device beginning with the words "Install Lineage on".

Second) Within the page that you had located, i would like to highlight a specific step with the words "(Optional): Root the device by installing the LineageOS su add-on or using any other method you prefer."

Finally) Just follow the instructions and be sure to pay attention to include that specific step i had pointed out above.

Locating Lineage Help and Support

---------------------------------------------------------

If you have any issues (and I'm sure that many may run into something) then go back to the Wiki All Content link above and you'll find many other links. Some of the titled include (but, not limited to) the following:

1) Logcat

2) LineageOS Contributors

(Highlighted below)

3) Frequently Asked Questions

4) How to submit a bug report

ETC... ETC... ETC...

Final (and important) highlight

--------------------------------------------------

A specific highlight I'd like to bring to your attention is the "LineageOS Contributors".

The Contributors link is a list of ALL the individuals that encompasses the Lineage's Development team.

The list is all broken down by categories and subcategories.

The Device specific developers, also known as "Device maintainers", are listed by their specific device they're responsible for the development of.

Lastly, i would also like to point out that the LineageOS Contributors link also lists individuals that are higher on the chain of responsibility.

Some are known/listed as:

1) Trusted Reviewers

2) Committers

3) Developer Relations Managers

4) Requesting LineageOS for your device

ETC... ETC... ETC...

Now I hope that passing this along was helpful to everyone and I do wish you all the best of luck!

All modems were extracted from their respective KDZ files from LG / T-Mobile

I take no responsibility for anything that happens as a result of flashing any of these modems.

Flash at your own discretion

Instructions:

Boot into recovery

TWRP Backup your Firmware partition

Flash the modem zip file you want

Reboot

Notes:

The baseband version appears to stay the same between some security updates. As such, some of the modems will have identical baseband versions however the modems themselves do appear to be different.

Based on my testing, using a modem from a different Android version does appear to work with some quirks. The cellular radio can initialize a bit slower and can end up taking longer to get a signal. Also, the baseband version will appear as "Unknown".

so here is a tough question, if anyone still has there ears on?

how do i get the 2020 security update on a rooted V521 ?

first i thought TWRP 3.1.1 might be the issue, as it ONLY lets you try V521 roms (cant try B3 roms??) so i updated TWRP to

(right pic)this was a 23 dollar used tablet from texas, , all stock firmware ( rooted device, then it took an over the air update, which fails into twrp )

(center pic) the second device is on the RR REMIX ,

(left pic) is a stock v521- rooted , i picked up for 12.00 dollars on the common" _bay" site......

View attachment 5173081

i am asking, because the FEB 5th,2020 update, allows me to download all my apps from PLAY store, while the older versions refuse to let me download PAID apps . (first time i have ever had this issue)

i even tried updating TWRP to 3.2.3 but makes no change.

(i am trying to set these up for my kids, but not being able to download needed apps is a nightmare )

If button 2 or 3 is pressed, it will also take you to the 2nd activity page and read either "Button 2 Selected" or "Button 3 Selected".

c. camera/video performance strong (except low light/zoomed shots)

d. no root with a locked bootloader (unlock/back up drm keys etc.)

e. battery life 36 hrs on medium use/6hrs+ screen on time

the achilles heel is the ram management as approximately 50% is swallowed by nougat/system processes, and charging time can depend on the cable used (use the sony cable only)

seriously consider the xzs if you can afford it in April (improvements to camera, memory and battery)

- I don't try for now but yes.

- For me is very good. If you active stamina with third option, you have excellent battery life with only x reality off and only better gestions of battery. I can play with games and do everything without problems and have fantastic battery life. I reach without stamina minium 5 hrs sot and maxium 6 hrs sot. With stamina third options minium 5:40 hrs maxium 8hrs (yes 8 hrs sot).
