[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syn5528:
Everything was working fine on my phone when one week back I was watching Youtube on my phone and it started buffering and I saw that Wifi bars from status bar were on low though I was sitting right next to the router. I tried all basic troubleshooting like reboot phone and router, check if same problem is there on other devices and even changed ROM. All other devices connected to my Wifi work fine. I even tried connecting to my friend's network at his place and even there I was having same problem. When I connect to Wifi network on my XT1068 it shows full range for 5 seconds then it drops to 1 or 2 bars. Wifi does work but it works very slowly. Please help! I am open to all suggestions.

PS - Previous ROM - Resurrection Remix

Current ROM - crDroid

Both on latest builds.

Hello guys, I can't take screen shot on my phone, it says content might be secured or memory full. I've never seen anything like this before, so I'm clueless.. Anyone?

I'm using RomAur MM version with Andro 6.0.1 kernel, no changes to the kernel through kernel manager or any other app, got few xposed customizations, but nothing related to SD card. I also changed DPI to 430 but tried with original 480 and still same message.

No !

ROMS should contain everything you need to enjoy Lollipop. You are not required to install any Add Ons, simply download the latest ROM, gapps, flash it, and go!

You are STRONGLY recommended to fully wipe your device before flashing, and if possible avoid restoring system apps and system data with Titanium Backup - these can cause stability issues that are very hard to debug. If you believe you know what you're doing - then fine, go ahead, but please don't complain if you experience strange behavior.

How to flash:Don't do it if you don't know it

ROM has gapps persistance in between dirty flashes

KERNEL:Kernel in this rom follows CM source with custom additions.

The link to R.A.H._TWRPv2.6.3__BigPart_selinux.zip takes you to Dev-Host, which for a file hosting website is useless! Trying to download this file takes you from advertisement to advertisement and exposes folks to potential malware. One page was even blocked as an attack page. Long story short is I need R.A.H._TWRPv2.6.3__BigPart_selinux.zip to successfully BigPart partion my Everest (European version) Xoom (BigPart partitioned) and cannot find a download source anywhere.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealWelder:
Do you have a backup of the file, or of the whole ROM? Also, if it says unauthorized it is because of the adb key. Do you have TWRP or other custom recovery with a file manager?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealWelder:
I don't have your device, but if there is a working custom recovery, you should be able to flash it safely with flashify app from the playstore. Once you get TWRP or other custom recovery installed adb will work be default. (While in recovery)

Then you can move your backup xml to it's original location and chmod 0644.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealWelder:
Just realized your device won't boot so flashify won't help. My apologies. We could flash it with dd commands, but if adb is unauthorized, you won't be able to get shell.

Do you have access to a Linux OS like Ubuntu?

Today i flashed the latest stock rom (OOS 3.5.8) and flashed back to stock recovery. I made sure everything works but i do not know if i should lock the bootloader again.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] devblade:
Alright, well, I listen to music a lot so maybe this is why, but I get like 1 hour SOT tops while listening to music for 1-2 hours ish in the background. Stock Android N and Ambasaddi ROM both suck for battery. I literally removed Facebook too and it still is very low. I use Google Play Music if it helps, maybe its just really badly optimised.

I don't recall my battery performance with Android 6 so I don't know if its just a problem with Android N :/

What can I do for good battery life? Are there any reliable daily driver ROMs, even with AOSP, that can get good SOT like 5-8 hours?

I tried disabling Nearby devices already, Bluetooth/Wifi Scanning etc, nothing helps. My phone is unreliable because it hardly lasts a day

sorry for being blonde but what video was that - and how do you know it plays in HDR??

for EG: on my sony TV when i play HDR videos (on netflix or amazon) the screen changes completely - the colours are warmer and the luminosity drops a lot) then when i exit the videos the screen reverts back to normal settings

is this the same case with the s8 HDR? or else how do you know you're watching HDR (for EG you know what resolution you are watching)

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] eL_777:
Have you enabled the "Video Enhancer" setting in Settings>Advanced Features>Video Enhancer? When I enabled this I noticed YouTube is brighter and more vivid... Doesn't for sure say this is HDR but it does look like it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Highspeed123:
Netflix and Amazon are working on mobile support. There is currently no HDR streaming for our S8. Don't turn on the video enhancer, it just makes the video brighter and overly saturated, nothing to do with HDR.

You can always download the Samsung Video player from Play store and download some HDR samples to watch. I have experimented and HDR and other high quality videos only seem to play flawlessly on Samsung's own video player. It plays 4k at 60fps files with ease and HDR too.

Here is a good place to get reference quality samples. Streaming can't match them for IQ.

We just have to wait, mobile HDR support is coming. Until then just enjoy standard streaming. :)

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Highspeed123:
You're right, it plays HDR videos and 4k without any stutter but it doesn't look like HDR is kicking in yet. Samsung's default screen mode is way too over saturated for video. It's best to switch it to cinema for movies etc and disable the video enhancement for accurate colours. Guess we have to wait for the Netflix and Amazon mobile HDR rollout. It's not comparable to my Sony X940c HDR so I knew something must be off.

I hope we get the option to play back our own HDR files too, maybe in a video player update. I'll contact them and ask about it.

Amazon HDR videos are available for s8 in US VZW
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] henrybravo:
There is some misinformation in this thread in regards to Netflix.

Netflix version 5.x is only supporting Dolby Vision HDR as of the date of this post, which the LG G6 is the only phone on the market that currently supports this. The Galaxy S8/S8+ doesn't support Dolby Vision; it supports a new standard called Mobile HDR Premium which Netflix is not using yet. If you think that Netflix videos on the S8 look great, you are correct they do, but you aren't viewing a true HDR experience so keep that in mind.

Also, HDR on Netflix will only be offered on the top tier 4k streaming plan (the Ultra HD / 4 screen plan for 11.99 per month).

Would you mind taking a screenshot when the video is being played? Does it indicate that the video is being played in HDR in the UI? Do you know the version number of the app? Also, where did you download the file from?

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] equake:
Amazon Video layout and selection is awful in my opinion but nevertheless they do have HDR Original Series TV for the S8 and assuming for the s8+ (also for HDR UHD Smart TVs) free for Prime members. As far as I know there are no free Prime movies in HDR.

You have to scroll through the categories of Prime TV and there is a separate HDR category (Bosch, Man In The High Castle, etc...)

I don't really see much difference on the S8 but they do look better on a HDR UHD TV (Maybe because its in UHD/4K).

my 2 cents.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] JaeMelo:
+1 I don't think many people here own HDR TV's so they just don't understand what it is like when the content is loaded on an HDR enabled device. Samsung is also adding to the confusing by including that video enhancement feature which somewhat mimics HDR.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Ray0414:
My Netflix updated and now I have HDR tags for Netflix as well. I contacted John Archer of Forbes and a few other places. Netflix is confused as to why some of us have the HDR badges it may have been accidentally pushed.

But either way, it does look fantastic on my S8+ and is very comparable if not better than my ks9800. Also Conflicting info on YouTube hdr it looks hdr to me based on other hdr I've seen on my ks9800. The vibrancy and depth look much improved over sdr videos.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] skivnit:
Nope UHD is for 4k displays our phone is not and HDR doesn't not need 4k screen but it should trigger hdr when playing on a hdr capable device. The s8 is not supported yet
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] equake:
One thing I know Amazon tries to scale the video according to both your network bandwidth and device capabilities. I've never seen anything that says HDR on the playing video on my Samsung HDR TV only that it displays UltraHD. The video description does list HDR in the video. HDR does not need UHD but that is the format that most HDR videos uses. Netflix is the same and the UltraHD plan costs more than the FHD plan so most people will never seen either format.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] vl_14@hotmail.com:
Wow great thread!

I have been searching the net any real info about HDR on the S8...

I also had downloaded alot of content from the net, from HDR movie samples, to HDR demo videos like the Sony one - ONLY the Sony Demo HDR video is pushing my S8+ (UK unlocked) into true HDR mode. And it ONLY works with Samsung's Video Player from the PlayStore/GalaxyApps. I don't see any HDR symbol in this player when watching the Sony demo. The only way I can really tell that its in HDR mode is by using this player in MultiWindow with another app - the other app on the Multiwindow screen changes its saturation everytime I play the Sony Demo. I have Video Enhancer OFF. I've also tried using MXPlayer, and it does not push out any HDR colours from any of my HDR videos. Just greyish tones...

I ALSO experience this weird scenario, when moving the Sony video from the Download folder to another folder, it no longer pushes out HDR colour and the demo becomes greyish. Putting it back in the Download folder brings back the HDR colours. Very strange. Again this is all with Samsung's video player.

Personally, I think all these apps need updating to fully support HDR. At the moment, it's not working much on the S8/S8+
