[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] mrbidjey:
To me that means "Take phone out of pocket, look at screen as it comes on; put it back in my pocket, screen goes to sleep

How is that better than just hit BACK/PAUSE/NEXT directly?

You got a point there. I am still using Google Now though. Google Assistant can't even identify songs yet

Once again how is that more convenient?

Look I am not saying it is not a good phone. But when I look at 5 shortcuts on my lock screen which comes on by double tapping anywhere on the screen and access one of them with a simple swipe; or while working on my, if I get a call, put the phone on my ear to answer it w/o greasing it; or yet while driving, just touch the top right on my screen and change the song...kinda make it a difficult in term of convenience. I believe there is more to the Note 8 that is why I am giving it a week.

I never said music controls were better. You didn't seem to know they were there. They are, that's all I'm saying. It's a double tap away.

If you go into setting display then navigation bar you can change the pressure needed to apply for the home screen button! Even when the screens off you can press where the home screen button was and it'll turn the screen on.. I'm not sure if most people know that the screens pressure sensitive. The always on screen can be turned off also.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions & Answers] The.Jericho.Initiative:
Had mine a few days now. I'm coming from an iPhone 6s+, and it's outstanding - in general - but battery life really is ass compared to my last device - maybe half as much charge remaining at the end of the night on the note versus the iPhone, and the iPhone is two years old! Also, I've noticed how many missed swipes I've had with this device - I don't have that awareness with the iPhone. We'll see how further updates shape it up. It's not too bad - but again, enough that I've noticed.

Also, for those who care: The PWM on this OLED is slightly higher frequency than those of the older S series - My S6 Edge had a freq. of 240Hz and - no **** - permanently impacted my ability to focus close up, before I figured out the issue. I'd never heard of PWM or experienced an issue with device panels - ever... Now I have to wear glasses when working on computers.

Thanks Samsung.

Anyway, I do love the design team they've had for a few years now, and I really wanted to like the note. So, I bought one to bring it home and see if my eyes could handle this one. In the retail store, there is too much ambient light to be able to discern the flicker of the screen if you are sensitive - only lower light, more common environments can show you that.

Anyway, PWM on this guy is sitting just a bit higher at 257.7Hz. It's enough that my eye's can perceive it in bad light or when I'm tired - but overall much much cleaner to look at. I do have to have the blue filter applied around 60% opacity (not sure the measurement) But four days in - my eyes are fine.

Heads up for those of you who may have sensitivities to this ****.

Can ping the watch when connected in download mode

So this might be the first step to get it Rooted as the older Samsung Phones were rooted etc with Odin in download mode.

Maybe some developers can have a look

- Wählen Sie "Nur Download" oder wenn Sie das Upgrade "Firmware Upgrade" durchführen

- Schalten Sie das Telefon aus, entfernen Sie den Akku und legen ihn nach einigen Sekunden wieder ein.

- Schalten Sie das Telefon NICHT ein.

- Drücken Sie die Schaltfläche "Download", um zu starten

- !!! TASTEN Laut und Leise TASTEN gleichzeitig gedrückt halten. !!!

- UND DANN ERST verbinden Sie Ihr Telefon über ein USB-Datenkabel mit dem Computer. wobei sie immer noch !!! TASTEN Laut und Leise TASTEN gleichzeitig gedrückt halten. !!!

- Der Prozess wird gestartet und ein ROTER Fortschrittsbalken erscheint,

- danach ein VIOLETTER Fortschrittsbalken.

- wenn der violette Fortschrittsbalken fertig durchgelaufen ist können sie die Tasten am Smartphone loslassen.

- danach ein GELBER Fortschrittsbalken. GELB dauert etwas länger, hier wird die Firmware übertragen.

- zum Schluß kommt ein grüner Haken im Kreis.

- Fertig !

- Sie können das Telefon jetzt sicher trennen und einschalten.

[YotaPhone] may24x:
I've a YD201 and recently upgraded from Lollipop to Marshmallow. I downloaded the stock rom and flashed it via TWRP + latest SuperSU

Wiped the dalvik cache ... ect ...

So far the upgrade went well ... but after I finished the setup-Wizard the phone keeps asking for System-Updates over and over gain.

If you check for updates the app responds: you're up-to-date no new version available ...

I stopped the manual update function, cleared the two system-update app's cache and blocked their access to the internet (via droid-wall)

Still android will ask for system-update check

On top - after an update check - the phone sometimes reboots ... when you lock the screen afterwards ...

One thing I notice is: when I use the reboot option, a message pop's up that some process tries to write in a (presumably) sqlight DB.

Unfortunately it doesn't show which process tries to write into what ...

But I suspect a coherence here between the constant update tries and a failed DB access.

Seems that the responsible app can't write it's data to the DB - get's an error and wait's for a "good chance" to reboot and try again ...

Does anyone know where Android stores the "System Update" information (eg. running Version, available version, last update try ... ect)

Yes, I already cleared the cache and did a factory reset ... no effect.

Any ideas ?

So the Activity Manager calls the: system_update.SystemUpdateReceiver ... and then some "magic" happens ... well, there's little trace on what's happening here at all, but I suspect that the EpdUpdateParamsManager receives some data and writes it "somewhere".

Now, this "somewhere" is what I'm trying to find, and I was hoping someone can point me there ... or at least in the right direction ...

Also, EpdUpdateParams is called quite often ... but I couldn't find any documentation on it ?

Can somebody shed some light on this ?

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andreizet96:
I've had my Nexus 5 for over 3 years now and it has seen countless ROMs, Kernels, rooting, all that kind of stuff. I also bought it in white and decided after some time that I want a black one so I bought a frame and a back panel and moved everything over to the new assembly. Shortly, it has seen a lot of mods.

My father used it for some time and one day he droped it and the microphone didn't work anymore in calls.

The problem was simple: in calls or while recording audio on whatsapp and such, the mic didnt work. While playing back the recording, there was a slight noise, just as you would keep the record button pushed but not talk and let it record only background noise. I can't remember, though, if while in call and on speaker the mic worked.

I bought a used flex cable with mic, charging port and everything on it (of which I was told was new), switched the old one with it and while playing back the recorded audio you can hear an awful distortion with slight oscilations as where the words should fit in.

However, the other person can hear me while in call and on speaker, but the sound is very, very bad.

My guess is that the mic on the flex cable that I bought was broken as well.

I thought of going ahead an buying another flex from a more trusted seller, but I'd like to get some advice firstly.

I tried anything that could be done with the software, this clearly is a hardware problem. What do you think I should check? What could be broken besides what i already know?

Thank you and have a lovely day!:)

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keoxkeox:
Hey!

Audio rec and calls use different microphones, however, I believe your problems are due to the connector slot on the PCB itself not due to flex cables. Just visually inspect your flex cables, do you see any strong fold lines or torn sections? If not it is quite unlikely.

Regarding the connector slot, find some repairmen who is able with a heat gun and flux, who can lift things from a pcb without damaging stuff. They can either reposition it or replace it.

Best of luck and I completely share your pain.
