[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
Order of preference:

1. Coral Blue

2. Midnight Black

3. Orchid Grey

4. Artic Silver

5. Maple Gold

I wanted the US Unlocked version, so I was limited to black. But honestly the black is gorgeous. It's a deep wet black and when the screen is off, it all blends together and just has a really clean look.

Now, if it had been available at the time, I probably would've got Coral Blue (and am tempted once Best Buy gets it), just because I'm a little tired of black, white, grey phones.

My other choice would've been Orchid Grey. But one, it was not available in unlocked version, and two my wife chose that color and I don't want us to have identical phones. With the very slight purple tint it seemed a little more feminine, but not enough so that I would be opposed to owning one. I liked the uniqueness of it.

I dislike gold phones, and the silver, while nice and clean, just seems bland somehow.

Ultimately, I'm happy with black. My ONLY issue with it so far is how much it shows fingerprints and smudges. Plus I put a full body clear skin on both our phones from Best Skins Ever. My wife's orchid grey turned out perfect and you can't see the skin at all. Mine however, the edges really show, and any little imperfections shows against the black.

We both also run cases and screen protectors on our phones, but the cases are clear so the color matters. Plus at home I take my case off just to see the beauty of this phone. I put skins on under the cases, because I have seen dust get between cases and the phone surfaces and etch scratches into them in the past. So just being over protective I guess. I'd love to just run it naked, but I'm too OCD and want my phone to look mint when I resell it later.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] ssgunner20:
Once you go black, you never go back...lol

No but seriously the black is just gorgeous. I wanted the S7E in black but only had the silver at the time i purchased. It was nice but sort of hated it. Even the S5 didn't have a dark black finish, it was more so dark blue. My last black phone prior to this one was the HTC Evo and before that the palm pre. So i had to have the black this time around and love it. My wife got the orchid and wasn't to fond of it at first but now she does...or so she says. compared it to the S3 i have at home since its blue.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] galaxys:
I also like the Black! But if I want different colors later then I'll do it via cases...
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] force70:
I had a black one and it looked really nice and sleek but was kinda boring too.

I Got a gold one which is nice and its a different gold than the note 7 i had (not as flashy) but I reallllllly wanted silver. Just didnt feel like waiting any longer to get one lol.

The orchid gray one ( which is more purple or mauve) actually looks nice also but its a bit too girly for a man to have in my opinion lol.

The blue is really sexy to see it in person but seems to as hard to get as silver. I would have been okay with a blue one too.

Sent from my S8+, S7 edge or S6
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] bonerp:
Anyone else notice that cases take the paint off the corners? I have 2 wear marks on mine already. Had it a month.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] htc fan89:
I got the maple gold and it looks really good, I prefer it over the orchid grey and the dull black color. I wanted Corel blue but it wasn't in stock, so went with this and no regret.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] corwin_amber:
The color does not matter - as long as it is black ?

Whatever flies for you, mine are black. Always.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] tigsandmitch:
I went for orchid grey, had black phones since the s4 and liked the grey so thought the change will be nice. No regrets yet
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
I was worries about this. What color do you have and how bad is it?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] bonerp:
Black. Just starting to wear away
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Mr. Orange 645:
Dang, that was my main concern with the black. The silver frame around the silver and orchid grey seem more durable and hide more wear. Black is beautiful but shows everything.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Honest9:
If I ever have to choose, I will always go for Orchid Grey. It is classy, unique and sophisticated color. Good part is front is black for all colors so making choice is quite easy and will mostly depend on person taste rather then force decision like with LG G6.

I saw it on the GitHub page. Could I just build a copy from source for myself?

Make sure you're on ext4.

Spoiler:it has major bugs,they're releasing new builds with all issues fixed very soon.

Edit~

Set selinux to permissive with kernel Adiutor and camera works,though some issues still remains to be fixed but it is now working well-enough daily driver.

Make sure you're on ext4 how to check plz?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gaukler_Faun:
No it will not boot. I've tested it. You need ext4 for all three partitions (system, data, cache). If you now have f2fs on your data partition you must change the file system and lose your data, also saved downloaded files, saved pictures and so on. If you need them, you must back them up.

If you haven't had made any changes to file system whatsoever, you're likely on ext4(stock file system),just flash it right away.

Since i installed Lineage OS 14.1 on My Lux. This notification doesn't go away. I known they fixed it in latest builds but didn't work for me. I am on the latest build but this stubborn notification didn't go away. Please don't tell me now to hold and block notification because I did it already & once i turn off my device, Voila! It is back!

Please fix!

I'm not sure if I would approach that issue on this tone !!! Everyone is volunteer here and all the great info you can get has been result of hard labor and study by the developers in that forum ...

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shonkin:
So I have one great Note 4 that runs fine. A second Note 4, given to me appearing to be a paper weight, has been with some effort rescusitated. But no, the eMMC errors have not gone totally.

This "bad" phone, however, is allowing me to fully exercise some of my curiosity. And in the process, no matter what happens, I hope I can get a few more answers about things. I know about the little app that keeps the phone from going to sleep and stablizes it... that works on the phone unless it gets turned off. And then the whole cycle of trying to start it again (the freezer trick, the holding of buttons, the pulling of the battery... sigh).

My latest gambit has been to go into TWRP and reformat /system /data and /cache (the only directories where I'm allowed to do so) to f2fs. In fact, just to really wipe this baby as clean as I possibly could, I reformatted them back to ext4, then back again to f2fs. I then installed a custom rom (the official CM 14.1). It appears to have installed over the top of the f2fs without trouble.

But of course I am freewheeling it here. I do not know very much about what is going on down inside there.

My questions:

1. What "hidden" directories are there that TWRP isn't showing me? Is there any possibility that if I could reformat them (and not destroy the phone) it might help with the eMMC errors? How would I do that if I in fact can?

2. When I reformat the directories from one format to another, am I actually wiping them or not? (I've read long pages about people suggesting that Android phones are terribly hard to actually wipe all data off.)

3. Is there any other possible cause for the eMMC errors than bad physical memory? I understand that bad memory chip *is* one obvious cause... but are there other causes that could in fact kick up an eMMC error that isn't really about the memory chip?

I'll post any other questions if and when I think of them. Worst happens, I mess this phone up so bad it won't reboot at all. I'm not too worried about that.

All thoughts welcome. I can experiment without caring too much. ;)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Intensivefire:
I have read elsewhere that the problem could be caused by having a micro sd inserted in the phone.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shonkin:
Yes, I've read that also. Tried all sorts of experiments with and without micro-sd card inserted. Using a Wake Lock app from playstore (set on mid-range) allows the phone to do and be nicely. But shut it off and I have to freeze it for 5 min before it will restart. So... hopefully the Chinese mb card I bought today will actually work. Providing I can in fact open the phone without busting it. (There's some good clues on youtube which is nice.)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zfk110:
emmc errors on note 4 is well known hardware failure , its time for you to replace emmc chip or system board
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shonkin:
Yes, I said that in my first post. My point was that it is possible other causes for the error message just might exist. But all that is moot now... I did in fact order a new motherboard. But in the meantime, when I went to dissect the phone according to instructions on youtube, I found out too late that the author of said instructions was fairly clueless as far as a successful end result. The phone is dead, dead, dead. Lucky for me, it wasn't my main Note 4, which is just fine.

Tip for snapchat: (one time procedure)

1: install this kernel v2.3 with latest magisk v13.2, boot and ensure magisk is working fine (ignore safetynet)

2: install snapchat (do not open it yet)

3: enable suhide in magisk and enable it for snapchat

4: wipe snapchat app data & cache

5: run shapchat and try!

Issue with proximity sensor

Hello, thanks for your kernel.

My device has edge bug and your kernel is edge bug fixed.

However when im using this kernel, my proximity sensor has some issues.

The screen will turn off during the call and wakes up when im removing the phone from the ear.

But the issue is even when the screen is blacked-out, the touchscreen is active during the call.

The sreen turns off but responds to touches

So when duing the call, the notification shade pulls down or even the call gets disconnected due to random touches by my eras or cheek.

The issue of touchscreen active durig the call is also present in other kernels provided by the developer, Ashish kontala.

I think you also ported edge fix from his kernel.

Can you consider looking in to this problem
