[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rogermax:
Firstly, Good job keeping and sticking with this OP2 device ! You are truly something.

QUESTION : From all the Oreo Roms available, which has been your favourite combination of Rom and kernel, mainly aimed at battery life and maximum stability ? Keep in mind that this question is posed towards your opinion and YOURS ONLY. Just because you seen someone saying that it's the best, shouldn't be your combination choice.

[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aliasgaruk:
The new pixel rom has been amazing so far... good battery SOT and smooth rom.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkozal:
Tried all Oreo Roms except Cosmic. The most I enjoyed AOS Illusion Project with BlueBolt kernel for the reasons you mentioned. Stable, good battery life and enough customisability.

First, this forum is wicked. I've gone from knowing jack-squat about my device to... well to knowing jack-squat with hard spl and a new rom. I've been tinkering around and am slowly gaining confidence and knowledge, but there is one thing that eludes me.

I'm trying to figure out which radio is best suited for my HERM200 on Rogers in Halifax. Currently I'm running Pays final 6.0 and radio 1.51. I have been experimenting, but the 3g coverage is so patchy it's tough to tell what is working and what's a fluke. I've tried 1.42 (factory), 1.43, 1.46, 1.47, 1.48, 1.51, 1.54...

Before everyone jumps all over me I have search and found nothing. I was hoping someone would have personal experience and be able to make a good recommendation.

Thanks in advance

only YOUR personal experience matters, but in Toronto and the Golden Horshoe, I've had the best results with 1.47.30 and best battery life when combined with Berds WM6 or Faria's WM6.1.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] dscsayers:
Thanks for the advice. I'll give it a shot.

It's just so hard to learn what will give me the best connection when coverage out here is so junk... I look forward to my next trip back home to TO to see what this device can actually do.

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eng3:
I have never really used this tablet much. Often it sits so long and the battery drains all the way so the battery prob isnt too healthy.

Anyways, my car has no Nav system so I thought I might mount it in my car and use it as a navigation device and/or music. With no GPS or SIM I'd have to tether from my phone.

I'm running Lineage 14 but without many apps, it is extremely slow with lots of lag.

Is anyone else currently using this tablet for car nav use? If so, what are your recommendations? Perhaps a different (maybe older) ROM?

Samsung will announce its new flagship S9 and s9 PLUS A launch date is February 25

I am wondering how many of you guys will update?

and for what?

Me personally will update because of the camera
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr. Orange 645:
I won't. Happy with my Note 8 and still using my S8+ as my backup phone. Now when the Note 9 comes out? Yeah, I'll probably look at upgrading then.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] namgniw93:
I won't! Samsung has been terrible with updates here in Europe. I was on August security patch until December when I got November security patch.. This was my last Samsung.

Dont think I'll unless there some significant upgrade in terms of processing speed and battery. As of now, most the reports are indicating minor upgrades nothing significant.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] partcyborg:
If I do it will be to an exynos. I've had enough of locked bootloaders
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] sherlock5545:
I'm waiting for the Note 9, hoping for their yearly upgrade programme to be available for it with 0% interest. That's a sweet deal.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Leon:
Waiting for the note 9 also. But how we can see, Samsung is horrible with the updates. So I my next phone maybe won't be Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] mark-in-dallas:
I won't and I'm done with Samsung. I'll not buy another phone in which the manufacturer locks down the bootloader and decides what applications we can and cannot have. And, unless and until others start doing the same and quit buying products that limit our ownership rights manufacturers are only going to continue pushing the envelope as to how much they can limit and restrict what we can and cannot do with OUR phones.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] PapaD78:
Maybe Note 9. I'm pretty saticfied with my S8+
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] metzo32:
100% Agree with you, I have a DRAMA with Note 8 and went back to S8+!!

Do you have any idea about other brand premium as well Unlocked?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] mjones73:
They lock them down because the providers don't want you messing with them, not so much Samsung's fault as it is the Verizon's, AT&T's, and the Sprints of the worlds, gotta get the unlocked versions from the manufacturer if it's important to you.

Back to the original question, I haven't seen any major upgrade that would make me want to change.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] mark-in-dallas:
I would generally agree with you, but as I understand it Samsung locked down the bootloader on all Snapdragon variants, whether carrier locked or unlocked.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] mgymnop:
Just traded in my S8+ and got a Pixel 2 XL. I loved the hardware but just can't stand touchwiz, Bixby and most Samsung apps.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] peachpuff:
Me too, unlocked bootloader + treble should be fun.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] XmlNode:
I won't. Samsung seems falling behind in the AI race too and based on the leaks, there will be no significant improvement in the S9 this time. I will probably stay with the S8+ and wait for a unique phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] peachpuff:
What ai race?

Dont think i will.. Just got used to the position of the FP Scanner, do i have to readjust again? no...

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jpbl1976:
Probably will. I have an S8+ and love it. I get why some of the folks here will be sticking with it -- especially since the S9/9+ represents almost no visual overhaul to the existing S8 line.

That being said, I actually had a free carrier Note8 that I sold immediately since it represented merely a side-grade (I put the money forth on a new MBP); I was intending to get an S9+ instead when the time came so following my plan, I'll be getting an S9+ to replace my S8+.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] lambik333:
if i had a moneytree in my garden i will buy the S9.....but for now i still have my S8......

I won't b/c of no under-display FPS.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] vladmir:
I have a exynos s8+ and if the rumours of the incoming s9 are true I don't see major reasons to upgrade.

Of course it will be a bit more powerful and refined device. Seems the strategy of Samsung is to delivery a big changes/features to the customers in a 2 years cycles.

Maybe I upgrade to next year device.... Maybe s10!

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] skivnit:
Samsung Will feel the pain this year as they increase the price of the s9 and s9+ without offering anything major. Mark my word, this year will be a bad year for Samsung mobile division. Unlike Apple, Samsung doesn't have a loyal fan base as big as Apple. So differentiating the flagship model based on screen size won't fly and offering minor upgrade for a 100+ USD over the s8/s9+ is just stupid . I have been buying the s series since the s3, this year I'm skipping. I th8nk I won't buy any phone this year as not much has changed, no new fact no breakthroughs. O always bought 2 phones/year but this one will be an exception

bit fed up with samsung because of its updates , for such a large company it takes far too long for new android versions to appear , phones look great but iam going to skip the s9 this year and get an iphone x .maybe next year with the s10 i might go back , but this years s9 is too much like the current version , moving the finger print sensor and stereo speakers are not enough to warrent me selling my current s8+ .

So I don't have to reply directly to OP's question, do I ?

Might update, but not root. Never should've rooted my S8. In the past rooting was very usefull, but nowadays it just messes up alot, it's pros aren't that great anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] sireniankyle:
If I get one, it will have to be unlocked bl. I keep getting annoying notifications from apps, and Samsung won't tell me how to turn the $#!+ off. Was thinking either Pixel or 1+ next time.

If jailbreaking wasn't so meh, I would have already bought an iPhone X. Those guys have to bust their butts constantly, and even then it's a half baked solution.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] XmlNode:
Exynos is walking a different way than Snapdragons, and the latter is more sophisticated and compatible with all common frameworks out there. Like the Kirin 970. Samsung is following Apple now - restricting the AI capabilities to a VPU.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] zige:
Yes of course (S9 plus). But not immediately. Maybe after 4-6 months as price drops really fast with Samsung flagships.. When S8+ came out it was 929€. After 5 months you could get it on 599€.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] woodydog:
I'm not. Going to hold onto my s8 for another year or till something amazing comes out.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] XmlNode:
Not yet. However, one year is long in software development. Apple limited its phones to a VPU and its API to image processing. Samsung also have a VPU and a possibly closed API. Qualcomm is well prepared on both hardware and support the common frameworks, as well as Huawei.

We'll see how the year continues.
