So they used different sensors from s7...uhhhh if i find this thread before than i didn't but the fragile G6.

Btw why it's slightly infact nothing quality improvement over s7?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
US Unlocked purchased directly from Samsung.com, with a 05/2017 build date. Sony shooters front and rear.

I also noted it showed the presence of a grip sensor. Think that is referring to the home button?

---------- Post added at 04:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:06 PM ----------

Last year the big deal with the Sony vs Isocell sensors was Note 7 ROM ports. If you had one of the sensors, it would cause the camera to force close, whereas the other sensor would work just fine. There was a debate back and forth which one was best, if either was. I had a 935F and my wife had a 935T and we both had the same sensor, which was supposedly the better sensor. And I was able to flash the Note 7 port to my 935F.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] maik005:
Really looks like all Snapdragon phones come with the Sony sensor.

Where the Exynos phone have the Samsung Sensor.

PS: The Grip Sensor was there since the S7 and maybe even before that?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
Weird. I don't remember seeing it before. Wonder if it has to do with the edge screen and detecting you touching it. I know the S7E was really bad, if you touched the edge, then your touches elsewhere wouldn't be recognized at times. Both our S7Es had that problem. I haven't had any issues with the edge of the S8+.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] maik005:
The Grip-Sensor is also there on the normal S7 (without the EDGE) but the problem you mentioned with this EDGE screen is still persistant on the S8.

But the EDGE screen on the S8(+) is a lot less curved then the one on the S7 EDGE. The the problem happens less...
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Dpk1:
I have the exynos s8+ with isocell sensors (rear and front).

@OP.. I think the poll should have been between both rear camera sensors (i.e IMX333 vs S5K2L2) instead of being between rear sensor of one (IMX333) vs front sensor (S5K3H1) of the other variant.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] someone261:
I have the G955FD (duos) and I have the ISOCELL sensors and the camera is amazing!! I'm just amazed how beautiful the pictures looks and the videos are so smooth! Just great!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] AshKIngOfKings:
ISOCELL is better, i.e. the Exynos variant

Exynos has a larger 7.8mm sensor vs 7.0mm on Snapdragon. Also, android authority has an article with photo comparisons side-by-side. You also get much better battery life with the Exynos variant as a bonus. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] maik005:
Are you sure with the sensor size?

Because this would mean much smaller pixels on the Snapdragon (Sony) Sensor....
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] rascal0pl:
My previous phone - s7 had Sony sensor. My s8+ has ISOCELL sensor and it feels like a total downgrade comparing to S7. Camera is terrible, blurry at the edges and perfectly sharp only in center of the photo. I've compared other photos in online reviews, because I thought that my sensor is defective, but no. It's just ****ty. Thanks Samsung...
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] philipone69:
You are describing a defective lens. I also have an s7e with sony and my current s8 has an isocell. The s8 is way better. You should get your phone repaired

Camera sensor and blur

Hi,

I just wanted to say that I am one of the people who experienced a camera blur (Samsung Galaxy S8+ G955FD) and this poll gave me the idea to investigate whether there is a relation between the Sony/ISOCELL module and said blur.

So if people would be so nice as to vote on my poll so I can get a better understanding of this issue, that'd be much appreciated.

I'm pretty new to actually posting replies, so please do tell me if it is against the rules to link to another poll/post.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] rascal0pl:
https://phoneproscons.com/770/samsung-galaxy-s8/1614/blurry-frame-edges-rear-camera/

Are you sure? This guy is saying exactly the same thing, blurry left corner. It happens only for photos w it 'infinite' focus. For photos of something close everything is OK. And again, I've seen many sample photos and each of them has this defect.

Take a look on this (and left side) - long exposure photo (hour - 22:30, iso 50, 10sec, raw):

Hi all.

I installed Beanstalk stable of January '17 but I want update to last stable version without lost my data and information. How?
[Huawei GX8] redbeard1083:
just flash it over top of your install without wiping anything. after it's done installing wipe caches and reboot.

best practice is to always make a backup before flashing anything in case you experience a bad flash or accidentally wipe your phone. so yeah, make a back up first :D
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ElBeaner:
I never had an issue with my LG V20 or G6 but only with the Samsung S7, Note 7 or S8

Does Samsung use their own Bluetooth api or something that causes this?

flash it with spflashtool to the current official rom, should fix your device, though it might erase your imei numbers which you'll need to restore incase that happens...

So I had bought a Choetech Fast Wireless Charger pad from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01K1CKKDI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Every time I try to use it, I get the message "Wireless Charging Paused". and the phone beeps and blinks repeatedly.

Looking online some have suggested that we turn on "Screen Saver" mode.. but that doesn't seem to help.

Anyone else having this issue?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] nappent:
Sadly in my experience Choetech "Fast" Wirelessly charging device and Samsung devices don't always get along. I've had multiple replacement unit sent my way with them and while the phone would say Fast Charging, I would get the "Pausing" issue like what you experienced. As well I could hear a odd clicking and white-noise coming from the charger. Not exactly a comforting noise. And the last straw was that the phone got hot! Really hot! The non-fast Choetech worked just fine, but who wants slow charging with our new S8...

The best luck I've had is with this device: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01HNWU3AY/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simpkinsk33:
Title is self-explanatory. I got locked out of my phone, so I went into recovery mode and did a hard/factory reset then rebooted the device. Everything was fine and well until the Device Protection from 5.1 kicked in and asked me to log back into my google account due to "unauthorized reset". I cannot access that google account anymore; I only created it for this phone and I never wrote down the password. I tried every password recovery option. I am COMPLETELY locked out of my phone, AND I deleted all my data for no reason. Grrr.

I read somewhere that since DP wasn't intoduced until 5.1, flashing the phone back to 5.0 would circumvent the entire problem, making it a nonissue. What I need to know, is how to do this in download mode. Please tell me it's possible. I'll try anything at this point; the phone is already a paperweight so any idea is a good idea.

Someone knows how to get a recovery for the stock jellybean rom on sony xperia e1 single sim?

And also... I can´t unlock the bootloader, and I try everything but I get the error "Command dit not succed" and the bootloader of my phone can be unlock.
[Sony Xperia E1] Kizoky:
There's no recovery available for Jelly Bean (4.3)

Boot into android and dial this and call it: *#*#7378423#*#*

If it says Unlock allowed You can unlock your BL

But If it says Unlock not allowed Your BL is force-locked, and it can't be unlocked
[Sony Xperia E1] Angelo13:
It says "Bootloader unlock allowed: Yes" So I can, but the problem is that I already tried to unlock the bootloader with the official method and flashtool and the first time that I put the code and everything, I get the error "....FAILED in 0.587 s " something like that but if I try twice the second time it seems to worth it, because I get "OKAY in 0.487.. s " for an exemple. But If I really unlock the bootloader why my phone can boot the kernel of Caio? cause I can't, and that is broken my brain xc I want to get the most advantage to this phone and I have to unlock the bootloader for that xD I already give up. I dont know what to do xD I want to try the cyanogenmod rom :c and sorry for my bad english :p

I once had this when I had an MMS trying to download. Delete the MMS header from your mailbox or specify the network/connection which should be used for downloading MMS.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] intrglctcrevfnk:
Check the MMS...

But the big question is... do you have push mail or perhaps a weather program?

Push especially will keep your data connection on as it is constantly polling your email...

The good news is if your are connected it doesn't necessarily mean that you are using data. If you are in a 3G area then an H icon will appear instead of the 3G icon while there is a data transfer...

If you want to stop it alltogether check out MoDaCo's NoData or the GRPS above..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] clarksdv2:
No push email or other data service

I have my personal email on 30 minute retrieve increments other than that I have no other data services. My phone is just on this constant data call although no data is being transferred. This subsequently drains my battery awefully fast.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] egoist6:
:confused:

well, what is exactly the problem? is it that your pda

"is just on this constant data call although no data is being transferred"

or

"constantly transfers data" ?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] clarksdv2:
More details.

The phone is engaged in a constant data call represented by 3G with the left and right arrow, however, no data is actually being transferred. The battery is draining within 8hrs on standby because the high transmit to receive ratio. Although no data is transferred the radio constantly interrogates the cell site thus throwing out unnecessary power. If I manually disengage via the communication manager, the phone will hang up the data call for a brief period, but will reengage fairly quickly. I can't find any settings that would create this situation. I downloaded the program in this post, but the phone still continues the data call. This has never happened on this phone until a month or so after installing the ROM flash with WM6, but I can't be sure if there is a direct correlation with the new flash. Thank you all for your help.

have you checked the activesync schedule time?

furthermore goto commmanager and disable direct push. if your commmanager does not show you the icon to disable direct push, install schaps advanced config and activate there the icon.

i am pretty sure that one of these two options causes the problem.

what other apps have you installed?

if all this does not help, hard reset your device and install/config one app after another.

Same Problem

I've got the same problem. I'm using the default HTC WWE ROM. At random times, sometimes twice a day, my "Rogers Internet" data connection (GPRS, EDGE or 3G) connects automatically and doesn't disconnect. If I catch it happening and click cancel, it tries again. It will not give up until the connection has been established for at least 10 seconds.

I've gone through every program I have, checking to make sure the auto update option is disabled (if there is an auto update). I do not use the direct push and therefore, activesync schedule is greyed out.

Any ideas?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mrpiggae:
I'm suprised that it drains your battery so quickly. My phone stays connected at least 90% of the day, and I usually have at least 70-80% battery when I get home from work, usually more. The only time that it gets drained quickly is when I'm browsing the web too much on NetFront 3.5...a notorious battery drainer.

Sorry I couldn't help...but maybe it's a battery issue? Since I'm connected so much and have no battery issues? Or maybe a radio change could help you?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ddn2003:
I don't have any abnormal battery drain, just weird auto-connect problem.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] XtreMe_G:
are you sure you have checked every single program? there has to be something that's trying to connect to the internet to grab data. weather apps, time sync, quickgps (i know, ridiculous, i'm just throwing it out there). try looking at what processes are running in the background using a task manager. that might help you eliminate suspects.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mozzz:
I had a similar problem, so I installed KaiserTweak and changed the setting to disconnect from 3G after use and that did the trick for me - no more constant connection and the battery stopped heating up and dying quickly.

I honestly like the fingerprint placement on the S8. It's only my second day having the phone and I find It very comfortable believe it or not. And having a case or Dbrand skin ,like MKBHD mentioned, makes it even easier to distinguish from the camera lens. As soon as I pull out the phone out of my pocket and it's unlocked.
