After one year I am not tempted to switch to anything else. I truly don't have any glaring complaints about the device. Is it as buttery smooth as the pixel? No, but it's not that far off. I read that some people experience slow downs and crashes overtime but this hasn't been my experience, likely because I flash a new Rom every month or so. I would have no problem keeping this phone until it died.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] termdj:
Overall I'm very happy with the phone. Both front and back screens cracked in the last year. Got screens fixed by Samsung for free. Battery was good in the beginning, but struggling to get more then 12 hours now. When the phone is not being used there is a lot of battery drain. A month ago the screen started getting grey stripes over it. The LED must be replaced by Samsung as it is a problem on their side. Put the S8 touchwiz on and the phone is snappy. Pics are still great....Very happy with the phone
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Soufiansky:
Concerning your standby battery drain, flash a new stock firmware + factory reset to start from scratch,it will definitely fix your issue
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Fivepoints21:
A not so fun year.

My S7 Edge has multiple cracks in the front and back glass along with I was forced by the phone to upgrade to the S8 + due to half of the screen glitching out and not allowing me to access the phone. Also the phone has been back and forth to Samsung nearly 5 times and has been factory reseted 3 or 4 times due to overheating issues.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] arnes_king:
My phone was serving me very well, until april (13 months from when I bought it). My battery has swollen, I got it to service and they replaced it, and now after about 1 month, it has swollen again.... battery life is horrible because of that, everything else works just perfect.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Soufiansky:
How can your new battery die in 1 month only ? Was it an original Samsung battery ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] arnes_king:
It was changed under warranty by an Samsung certified service shop, so it should be original Samsung battery.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] klect:
I have the same problem, a lot of battery drain in standby... Is there a way to perform a factory reset and reinstall all apps previously installed without a hassle? Meaning: not having to manually go through all the settings again.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] johnny8910:
No complaints from me

Had my Edge since March 2017, and now using one of the S8 ported Roms.

Runs real nice with a custom kernel. Butter smooth and decent battery life :)

Mine has been faultless through out my ownership.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] ladapower:
This is my first Samsung phone ever, using it about a week ago. Coming from Lenovo Vibe Shot so far so good. Battery seems to be great, screen is superb my only big issue right now is to find the perfect screenprotector/case combo :P Which I will find eventually I know.

However there are smaller issues too. Well, more of annoyances than issues with the phone, so I am going to list some features that exist in my previous phone but missing in the almighty flagship (2016) phone:

- Vibe Shot: knock to awake. S7e: -

- Vibe Shot: home screen gestures #1 swipe down and the notifications came down. S7e: I have to reach the top.

- Vibe Shot: home screen gestures #2 swipe up and home screen customisation menu came up. S7e: have to fiddle with the settings menu

- Vibe Shot: WiFi boost if reception low. S7e: -

- Vibe Shot: Bandwidth displayed on top when there was network connectivity. S7e: -

- Vibe Shot: Auto profiles applied based on time and/or location. S7e: -

- Vibe Shot: Auto reboot AND scheduled power off / on can be configured for every day. S7e: auto reboot once a week, no scheduled power off and on.

- Vibe Shot: Alarm, clock, stopwatch etc is accessible by only clicking on the clock on the top left corner when you pull down the notification tray. S7e: nothing happens when you tap the clock.

- Vibe Shot: Click on the battery icon on notification area (top right corner) and the battery settings/stats come up. S7e: -

- Vibe Shot: Ability to change 2G/3G/4G through a widget. S7e: - (TBH I won't miss this as my new operator is pretty good)

- Vibe Shot: Notification log/history menu at the bottom of the notification tray. S7e: -

- Vibe Shot: Vibration strong, yet quiet. S7e: strongish but fairly loud.

- Vibe Shot: Alarm worked when the phone was switched off. S7e: I admit I haven't tried it yet but I have a feeling that it won't work

Most of them are annoying because of my habits from my old device however it doesn't take away from the fact that these are features existing in the Vibe Shot by default but missing from the S7e. I know this could be true vice versa. (S7e: fingerprint sensor, water resistant, NFC, amoled, bigger battery etc. Vibe Shot: - )

Please correct me if I listed something that is incorrect in relation to the S7 edge, I am a new user so I might missed something. And yes, some of the features can be added with different launchers or apps but the point is that my mid range phone had such useful/comfortable features out of the box...

That being said it is a great phone indeed, the best one I ever owned :)

Thanks for reading.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Soufiansky:
No, if you want a new fresh start again you will have to download and set up everything again, but it would be worth if your battery drain is gone. Also google backs up your wifi passwords and apps, samsung too so it will automatically re-install everything again, the whole process will take you 2hours max if you have lot of apps
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Fivepoints21:
You also could use Smart Switch on a computer. Back up your files to the computer then factory reset the reconnect to the computer and restore everything.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Soufiansky:

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Fivepoints21:

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Akibalo:
Love the SG7E only thing that still bugs my is teh reversed buttons for back and scrolling through apps :/ never get used to it since i use multiple android phones and only samsung is backwards :(
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Ati75:
This also is my first Samsung device, and i couldn't be happier with the s7 edge. It still looks beautiful, is fast enough for my needs, and battery consumption is excellent imho. I absolutely don't feel the need to replace it anytime soon. The S8 seems all right, but i couldn't arrange myself with the fingerprint sensor on the back. For one its position seems to be awkward, and i like to have a home button on the front. Makes it easier to unlock the device when it is resting on a table. A bezel-less phone may seem to look more "futuristic" but, as i said i like the home button on the front. Will keep it until it dies on me. Hope this won't happen for at least two years.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Soufiansky:
I really prefer samsung's buttons layout, it's makes more sense since most of us are right handed and the back button is what we use the most
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] diefem:
Hi Guys,

I´m ( and many PX5 users too :) very interestest on a tool like "RK3066 Headunit" or "S.D.V.C." (unfortunately Android 4.4 / 5.1.1 only) which enable (GPS-) speed depend volume change for Android 6 / PX5 users.

All tools i´ve tested are not working :(

Can somebody please programming a SDVC-tool? I (and certainly many others) would donate for it!
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] hyperkick:
A program that can handle input of a basic formula for non linear progression. Something that modifies the volume so the volume does not revert back to the unmodified level when a volume button is pressed. -Thats annoying.

Something like that is also really needed for PX3
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] diefem:
You're absolutely right. A disadvantage of the existing px3 tools is, that the volume level jumps back to the level before the volume was changed from sdvc tool. That sucks.

There should be the possibility to change the volume absolute / global / permanently, rather than relative / temporary. The frontpanel volume control / buttons do nothing else.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Sparky19:
Better yet, it would be nice for the volume to be integrated with the rest of android so existing SDVC apps work as well as speech recognition. Presently when I say 'OK Google... turn up the volume' some volume setting is changed, but it doesn't actually change the volume through these units
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] bettuccio:
Hello to all, guys I also need to raise and decrease the volume according to the speed! I've tried all the applications on the play store "Gala and Automatik sdvc" but no one works! We need a developer who creates a tool for Px5. We hope someone listen to us.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] ikerg:
The developer of GALA has the intention on creating the update for px5, buy he needs the commands for volume up and down that the headunit manages. Anybody?

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] diefem:
All need command informations can be found on source code base here: https://github.com/f1xpl/MtcdAutoVolume

BTW: MtcdAutoVolume is currently unusable because it controls to absolute volume levels (instead of relative). :(

I will test it this afternonn. Hopefully it works!
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] diefem:
Since yesterday "myMTCService 0.7.2" is running on my PX5-HU with Malaysk V2 ROM...and now it is the first tool with a good working SDVC section!

All other avaiable GALA/SDVC-Tools i´ve tested are currently useless or do not working on PX5 Systems.

Congratulations and big thanks to "rabbity417" for his aswome work! :good:
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] JohanEe:
I tried to install this on Malaysk v3, but when I run it the launcher keeps crashing, so it's not usable. After restarting the HU the launcher worked again. I uninstalled the service. Any suggestions?

A few weeks ago I tried the version 0.7.2 of MyMtc Service that free. Initially it worked but after a few days the volume changes had no effect. Now version 0.7.4 is released but I have not tried it yet. How does it work for you? Ask me a question: What's the difference between the free and the donate version?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] diefem:
"myMTCService 0.7.2" is running very well on my PX5-HU with Malaysk V2 since i use it (2 weeks now)

There is no difference in functionality between the free and the donate version. Donate version (more like a pay version) handles the "donate-money" comfortable with the google pay system.

I will try 0.7.4 on Malaysk V2 today.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] diefem:
Try the new Version 0.7.4. The Bug Fix on PX5 (Fix issues that reboot) maybe helps to get the tool running on your system. The Tool owner rabbity417 seems very interestet to make the tool more stable for the PX5 platform. He releases fast new versions.

Revision Info myMTC Service (copied from Goole Play Store):

v0.7.4

■ Bug Fix on PX5

1. Fix issues that reboot

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

v0.7.3

■ Add Features and enhancements

1. More faster remote controll.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] bettuccio:
OK, thanks a friend. I will try version 0.7.4.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] hyperkick:
Anyone else have to restart the service after every standby period?

(on PX3 malaysk)
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] makes2068:
Yes. Same to me.

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] diefem:
Same here. 0.7.4 service stopps after standby. I have tried using Malaysk V3 for PX5 with CarSleepRun to keep alive the service ( added all listed - i guess - 7 mtc_services).

But did not work. The Screen Overlay Bug in Malaysk V3 is also annoying. No more experiments.

Now I am back on the well running 0.7.2 and Malaysk V2, where the mtc service is not stopped after standby

myMTC service 0.7.2 apk :

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] makes2068@gmail.com:
Screen overlay was caused by the app "twilight" in my case. Deactivate and the bug is gone.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] diefem:
Thank you for sharing your experience!

Off Topic: But I wonder how such a massive problem with Twilight in the release version could remain unrecognized.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] makes2068@gmail.com:
Thats not a massive problem. It´s a feature ;)

In the twilight description there you find the text to deactivate to install.

Use the app on my mobile too. for installing something i scroll down the statusbar and stop twilight service.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] diefem:
One more OT ;): Its not pretty comfortable to stop the Brightness Service by user anytime you browse in Apps settings like CarSleepRun to prevent permissions issues by overlay. Since it is better to disable the Brightness App completely. Is anyway no proper Brightness control, since only the picture contents darker and the background light is running at full power.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] bettuccio:
For those who have screen overlap problems with other applications install the xposed "NoOverlay warning" module. On my rom malaysk unit is working fine.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] disturbd1:
This device is officially my debut into the world of USB C; I've never had a single device that uses it. I'm excited, but also cautious as I've read it can be dangerous if you buy a less-than-reputable brand for cables.

What brands would you recommend? Ideally, available on Amazon since that is where I buy pretty much everything from :p

*Side question - My previous device is an S7 Edge, and as such I have multiple QC 2.0 compliant chargers around the house and in my car (including wireless). I want to clarify whether I can continue to use those and expect fast charging or not*
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] mjones73:
I am using an Anker 2.0 car charger with mine with no issue. I did have to get a USB-A to USB-C adapter to be able to plug my car dock in (it's got a fixed USB-C cable).

I bought the Anker Powerline+ cable and a 3 pack of the regular Anker Powerline cables just to toss around, they're good.

My S8+ arrived today, and I've ordered the following Aukey 5-pack from Amazon (UK). They will arrive tomorrow.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] disturbd1:
I've had pretty good luck with Anker and Aukey products, alike. Sounds like there's no hiccup with their USB C lineup. Has anyone used both, or prefer one over the other? Why?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Accessories] Incarniac:
I've used both in the past, and have no preference and for me it comes down to price/offers and convenience (in stock/out of stock). Both make quality products in my experience, and you can't go wrong with either. I usually look first for Anker or Aukey products when I need things like cables, power packs/external batteries, car or wall chargers.

I have the Top Ace full screen protector

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072FHC5K6

It is a full front tgsp with a black border to cover up the normal halo you would get with the 2.5d glass, like Intelliarmor Pro.

It's not perfect. The cutouts for the lighted buttons are slightly misaligned on my sample, so the button lights are blocked slightly when viewed from an angle. And the black borders look like they cover a row of pixels of the screen on each side. The glass itself is pretty good, the oleophobic coating is decent. No dot matrix either.

It's not the best imo but then again I don't feel compelled to rip it off the phone. Having the full cover is nice.
[HTC U11  Accessories] aviatordoc:
Anyone try this one? I ordered one, will update when I put it on. The cutouts look different from all the others.

Seems like glass protectors on Amazon are doing the black border trend. Just bought the Mr shield one on amazon

Have to when our new phones have curved screens. A flat piece of glass doesn't work anymore, just creates a raised edge.

yep, I try this and the devilcase alu bumper...i hope I can find a combo of transparent back protection with the alu bumper.. That would be the best of both world, aesthetics and protection... but I'm thinking I'll only be brave enough to use a bumper when on an office day...any longer walk, outdoors, and such, i'll change to incipio or the Seidio if it works out. :) Yeah, it looks kinda industrial, but after a while of thinking and getting the hang of it, i thought, it sure looks a bit strange, but high-tech strange :) at the worst case, i'll send it back
[HTC U11  Accessories] hx3:
Any chance you can provide direct links to where you purchased the Imak screen protector and the clear back cover you bought? Aliexpress is displaying all kinds of different screen protectors and I haven't been able to find the back cover. I'd appreciate it!
