[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] orbitalcomp:
I'd love to know this, as well. I'm using the hotspot workaround, status bar carrier removal apk, and the precise animation scale apk on the last August update.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] :
Overlays seem to be working fine. Can't comment on hotspot, I don't use it. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Bobthahog:
Hotspot is still working after update.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Cratos17:
Me too... 7.1.1 just Verizon...

---------- Post added at 09:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 PM ----------

Does any body can tell me if they are having troubles with the battery after this update? My phone is loosing about 25% at night after i updated... i did every single possible thing but, the Android System Info is on top of my battery “drain” with about 17% after all... can any one help me?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] orbitalcomp:
I went ahead and uninstalled my two overlays (Carrier Hider and Precise Animation Scales) and rebooted before installing the update. Also, I'm still running the final version 1.7.3 of the original AdHell since it still seems to work fine at blocking ads and as a package disabler. I went ahead and turned it off and rebooted, then installed the new Sprint update.

Once everything was finished, I reinstalled the two overlays and turned AdHell back on. Everything works just like before.

I can confirm, the hotspot workaround is still working perfectly. I went ahead and updated my profile and PRL after the Sprint update, then reapplied the hotspot settings and rebooted.

Thanks to both The Merovingian and Bobthahog for letting me know everything would be functional...

Make sure that you are using the original cord in charger, this update is very pick about that.

If anyone is willing to part with their code, PM me. Like others I'm willing to coordinate through paypal, etc.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Zyxxeil:
Would love a code. Code will go towards a development phone for my ROMS/MODS.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] johnmoon:
God stop with your lame sob story and pay it up for the code. Even if you pay one for 100 you are only paying 400 for the phone which is still amazing.

We all know they sold around 5000 Units (definitely less than 10000 units here)

How many codes do you think they will go on sale?

Most will buy another one in white to gift someone or to keep it as back up or replace it with their black one (old black one will easily cover the cost of white one + some extra change)

If you want one then don’t waste your time and pay up for the code while you can.

400 is still way better than 500.

Sold me a used code, apologized, has not refunded money yet. Will update if he does, but I'm not holding my breath (I've already got PayPal, my bank, Essential support involved).

If he tries to sell to you, beware. Mods can verify by looking at PMs.

As a general rule for everyone, be extremely careful when buying a code on these forums.

As already written in a similar thread, selling stuff on XDA isn't allowed. Therefore, this thread got closed.

You can share these codes for free if you want to. (That means post the code publicly, here. Whoever grabs it first can have it, then.) However, be aware that continuing the sales in new threads can lead to restrictions on your XDA account.

[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] TJSteveMX:
Well, so many people asking for a code and not sure if old buyers are willing to share it after the high cost they had to pay for it at the beginning. I assume they will try to use the credit for another essential product but we never knows.

Me, like some others asking for a code, I'm here to ask also for one as well.

not sure after so many people asking for one, if I get a person who can share with me a code but, worth the try.

thanks in advanced
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] claylong:
I would also pay for a code if someone doesn't have a use for theirs. Although, given the not insignificant demand, I assume the asking price per code will be very close to the $200 value.

[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] htpc_punk_monkey:
I don't see how you can say it's pointless to try and find a win-win solution with early adopters who got screwed with a high price. If they can get a little cash and I can save a little cash, how is that pointless? I am happy to wait another month to buy the phone if it means saving a little more while helping a fellow member.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Goronok:
Tons of people asking for codes that won't be released for some time is pointless. Not like essential has a good track record here either - I'll be surprised if the codes ever get sent.
