I get your predicament. Although it is the epitome of a first-world problem I also have trouble deciding which app to use when there are duplicate apps available. It used to be so much easier back in the day when Samsung apps were so poorly written. Now Samsung apps are VERY competitive with third-party apps. I keep switching between Nova launcher and Touchwiz launcher, between Samsung Music app and Poweramp, between Samsung email and GMail trying to find one that clearly offers an advantage. Right now I am inclined to keep the native feel that Samsung apps offer, but that could change the next time I am bored with my phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussi] skeene85:
I ended up leaving my email accounts in the Samsung mail so I can take advantage of most of the other defaults like the edge calendar, widget calendar, bixby integration and such. But I turned off notifications and use the real Outlook app mostly. I'd go all Samsung if it had a "swipe to archive" but that muscle memory is way ingrained in both my thumbs and my workflow.

At this point I think my only frustration now with this phone is that sms don't want to notify me on my Galaxy Gear S3. But that has a thread to itself and I hate sms so I'm not super worried about it.

PS. Do you use a case? I feel like I can't grip the phone without one.

Thinking of getting an S8 from the Google Pixel XL. Good decision, or bad? I realize stock android vs. bloatware, timely updates vs. not so timely updates. Anything I should be wary of if I make the switch? Thanks!

Simple review

Beautiful phone, better software, still lags for some stupid reason with the latest specs, battery life is eh (doesn't matter to me since I always carry my macbook pro with usb-c to charge it when in class), fingerprint performs perfect (babies complain about the placement), and their flagship phone finally doesn't overheat at all even when charging :victory:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussi] Eddie Hicks:
Well count me in as a 62 year old baby. I've owned my S8 since April 18th, and I am still frustrated with the fingerprint sensor on the back. It's a pain if you like to use the sensor while the phone is laying down, not to mention the smearing of the camera lens. Other than that it's the best phone I have ever owned.

Hello Guys! Sorry for my bad English!

Now im using a Galaxy Note 3 and i really want to change to a new phone. The leeco for me is the best option on 5.7 screen, but im scared with the battery! Theres any way? Any kernel o stable rom that helps me with the battery durability? Can i flash a kernel on the stock rom?

Pd: what model should i buy x829/820 (im livin in Florida)

:confused::confused::confused::confused:
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Palm Trees:
LeEco Le Max 2 X829 USA Version. I would go for the X829 :)
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] BananowyPotwor:

I'm also in Florida, Ft Lauderdale area, I have the X829 running stock EUI on Tmobile and it's working well including wifi calling.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] sick707:
Ok!!,

Hows many hours of battery(SOT) can you get?
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] castuis:
Well that really depends on what I'm doing when the screens on. If I'm playing Mobile Legends about 4 hours, If I'm watching videos about 5.5 hours, if I'm just on here reading or replying to emails then 6-7 hours. Don't put too much stock into peoples sot because how they use it may not be anything like how you use it. With QC 3.0 you can go from 0-100% in an hour or 0-35% in 12 minutes.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] ventura1977:
Hi, went from Note 3 to this phone as well. If you worry about the battery life, at least compared to Note 3, don't. The processor is way more power efficient. Of course if you push it hard with games it eats up the battery fast. Medium to moderate use i get easily through a day with 30% percent left. The best thing maybe is the speed compared to the Note 3 lags (thanks Samsung). However there are many phones to consider. If you have a bit more budget i would also look the OnePlus 3T.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] dfitzpat:
I was worried about the battery coming from a redmi note 3 which had a beast of a battery.

I never failed to get through a full day yet and the QC makes all the difference when you need a topup. Battery could be better but it is by no means bad.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] JohnPyn:

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] stoyank:
Excuse my stupidity but what is the difference between dpi under developer options and changing the zoom/text size under screen zoom and text in Display menu?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] JohnPyn:
There is no difference only that some people aren't satisfied with how small/big you can make things so they achieve that by changing the dpi. Also changing the dpi makes everything smaller or bigger not just the writing. So it's like standard view vs condensed (I'm not even sure it's in the galaxy s8, I didn't even bother looking since I know the condensed is still too big for my taste)

Anyone tried any call recording software yet?

Are you root/non root?

Which app do you use?

Does it record the audio stream or just what the microphone picks up from the speaker?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ElBeaner:
I use ACR - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nll.acr

It works perfectly fine to record both sides of the conversation.

The incoming audio is a little on the softer side but still very audible

I paid for the licensed version as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Tp4R3g:
What config do you use???
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ElBeaner:
Click on Recording issue, scroll down until you see Samsung 7 and use that one
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] dansan382:
Any way to kill that on going notification for ACR? I was going to disable it in the settings but it warns this might kill the app.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ElBeaner:
I disable it in the settings and it works just fine.

Just add ACR to your unmonitored apps under battery so that Doze does not kill the app
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] pRo_lama:
The best app so far - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.skvalex.callrecorder
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ElBeaner:
What's so much better of it that it results in the $7 extra premium over ACR licensed version?

Serious question - may switch to it
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] pRo_lama:
1. The programmer communicates with you if you have a problem. I've written him over XDA a couple of times, and he has always helped me.

2. If the app does not support the mobile phone (new models on the market), just write to him and he looks at it right away.

3. Regular updates.

4. Many options for recording such as formats, filters etc.

5. When you start the app for the first time, the application will set itself the most suitable settings for that mobile.

6. You don't need to have root.

Look, I tried many apps, but Call Recorder is the first choice for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ElBeaner:
ACR does all that and I spoke with the developer when I got the S8 and he fixed the issue instantly and issued an update within hours

I may download the trial app and see how it works/looks
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] vinokirk:
Wow, so might not need root after all!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] boldbeast:
Galaxy S8 / S8 Plus has more than 28 variants, some of them uses the Qualcomm MSM8998 chip, some of them uses the Samsung Eynos 8895 chip.

Boldbeast Recorder records calls crystal clear in two directions, from users' reports so far, all Galaxy S8 / S8 Plus variants work well, no root needed. Detailed information: https://www.boldbeast.com/forum/topic1438-galaxy-s8-call-recorder.html
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] linom:
I tried Boldbeast but it does not record properly. It asks me to remove all other recorders, which I do not have in the first place. I even removed the default voice recorder, but it still asks me to remove other recorders. Strange. :confused: I uninstalled the app.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] boldbeast:
Most possibly, you enabled the OK Google app in your phone. OK Google is occupying the microphone, it is continuously picking up sound from the microphone to recognize your "voice command", and this blocks Boldbeast working. Please disable the "Settings > Google > Search > Voice > OK Google detection > From any screen" option in your phone, then it works at once.

About the "can not record any call" problem, actually there are 7 possible reasons, have a look at the [001] part in this page: http://www.boldbeast.com/android/call_recorder_troubleshooting.html

Test again, it 100% works.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] mrnapolean1:
Used to use this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.appstar.callrecorder&hl=en

It quit working on my Galaxy S8.

I tried using Boldbeast as some people stated here but it didn't even record. No recordings where found.

I am using ACR as also indicated on here and it seems to be working for the moment.

I am using the AT&T Galaxy S8. do I have the one that doesn't support call recording? I was reasding on other forums and people are saying some S8s are blocked from recording calls.

The Android Oreo update has impacted recording on some Samsung S8 and 8+ and all S9's. I've been a paid user of ACR for a year now and it's awesome, but even they are scratching their heads about this b/c it's impacting everyone.

Where do I stand?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5.1:
Hey,

I don't know. Never had battery issue on this phone yet. At least, 6.x.x > 7.x.x didn't change anything. You are the first person I sent having the problem occuring right after 7.x update! Try downgrading and see if it fixes it.

People who have had their battery replaced didn't complain yet. And I guess most of them are running 7.x.x firmware. This is weird.

Good luck...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Zer0xone:
So a couple days ago I had a live chat with one of the agent about whether the phone I ordered from official website will come unlocked or not and she said that it will be unlocked. I just got my phone today and just before I decide to put the sim card in, I saw a video from LinusTechTips saying that it will lock to the carrier that the first sim you put in belongs to... That's not cool, not only because I need to spend an additional 15-20 bucks to unlock it, also I will be getting OTAs from carrier which is much slower than straight from Samsung. So I haven't put a sim card in it and is there a way that I can prevent my phone from swapping to a carrier rom? I can do a few things now on my phone such as disable system packages and services, without avoiding my warranty.

Anyone in Canada (well, anywhere) getting an 950/955 W have put their sim card in the phone? What did you guys get when you put in the sim card?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] CASz:
I should get my phone today. My shipping notice included the unlock code, didn't yours or did it not work? It also described the process were it would initially carrier lock. My plan is to put my Virgin SIM card in then go to wireless wave and use a Rogers SIM to carrier unlock. I have done that before. Since I didn't purchase through a carrier updates shouldn't​ be through the carrier but time will tell. The only carrier stuff will be what is included in the SIM card.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Zer0xone:
Lol thanks, Just took a closer look to my shipping notice. I got the unlock code too. But I'm still worried that the update speed will be slow as hell. I'm on Fido, as far as I know, we usually get update a month after the international version does..
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] peachpuff:
If you bought your from from samsung you should of gotten an unlock code from techdata when they sent you the tracking number so the sim lock is irrelevant.

Also all the updates come from samsung, not bell or rogers, they simply give the go ahead for samsung to release their firmware, bell is the quickest and the slowest is the non-carrier xac version so if you have 711/sears/public mobile or those type of providers expect to get any updates dead last. You can change your csc to bell if you want, you'll get 3 bell apps but they can be disabled.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] mredamon:
Hi peachpuff the comment about receiving an unlock code in the shipping confirmation, does that only apply to Canadian orders?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] peachpuff:
Yes as far as i know, in the US you choose your carrier first, in canada you don't on samsungs website.

should i choice my country version or latest update ( 2 month later ) :confused:

Thanks very much :o:o
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers] sos_sifou:
I think that you just need to check for OTA updates, your tab will try to look for new software everytime you reboot it or press manually look for updates in settings. Maybe you can deal with your issue with a full reset, you will loose everything not synchronized or saved but you have back your brand new functioning tablet

I've got a brand new Kenwood Ddx794 in my car. I'm not overly impressed as I've had issues with my 7 edge that when I tried to play Pandora or Spotify, I'd have to cycle from one app to another to get it to bring up data on screen of the head unit. Now with an 8 plus, when I choose Pandora, it only says connecting, but it does play, you can't search or fast forward, nothing. I downloaded Tidal, and it plays fine through Bluetooth to the head unit, but what's weird, if I choose Pandora, tidal will play through, but no controls. Bluetooth audio will allow you to fast forward, but not search or show artwork, and works with Pandora and Tidal otherwise. I'm already in the market to replace the Kenwood, I'm just curious to see if other people have had issues with other units. I've updated the head unit software, last update they had was March 28. I'm looking at the clarion nx706 as a replacement, I just want to know if the Bluetooth 5.0 on these are a culprit or what.

Hello guys!

Just bought this device 2 days ago coming from an LG G4 phone.

I'm pretty satisfied with the performance with normal usage and gaming however I tried playing the phone's font and display size.

Upon changing all the sizes to small I pressed the back button to return to the app drawer but to my surprise it opened the Mobile Legend app instead.

I tried it for several times and still the phone opens up the same app.

Does anyone experience the same issues with the phone?

If yes, what is the fix with the issue, this is just a minor annoyance and I could live with it but hey I still have one more day to return the phone and receive a replacement.
