I'm not gonna lie but this comment is about as bad as it gets. Smh

Nothing is wrong with the video and this issue is more than just a few bad ones. It's been on all their phones work curved screens. I don't understand why you are putting down the OP'S video and post over a real concern. More people need to be aware of it. I bet it's more widespread than you realize. People just don't know to look for or never notice. You set a great example for being a senior member in xda

Sorry my bad, the reply wasn't aimed at you. I appreciate your comments.

I agree with your comments especially in regards to not knowing what to look for. My brother didn't even notice it until I shown him.

I've read about it being the way the light reflects with the curved display, I have my S8+ now an it doesn't have the same

Issue. It's really distracting once you notice it especially if your in a dim lit environment.[/QUOTE]

No problem. Hope your guys get a good replacement. I know for me, mine was more than just a reflection.

I said, "Clearly showed the issue for me. I've had that same issue with other Galaxy phones. My note 7 was really bad! It's more than a case of, "just a few bad ones" I'm sure there would be many more complaints of this issue if people knew what to look for."

Most people just throw a case on and that'll block the screen bleed. So, there's your can't see it and will never notice it. Look at the pic I posted. That's acceptable for a $900 plus phone? You can be a so called funny guy all you want. I don't care any further to look at or respond to your ignorance. If the glass and frame have the slightest gap you can see the light bleed through the sides. https://www.dropbox.com/s/5zg1zqqkb0ry9cm/IMG_20160820_051305.jpg?dl=0

AMOLED can't have light bleed. Light bleed is the backlight of an LED or LCD screen shinning through. Normally thru the sides or corners. What your seeing is the same thing you would see if you take any phone and tilt it to the same angle as the edge displays. Your seeing the glass and reflection in that glass at a different wave length I find it funny that your calling me ignorant while trying to argue an issue that the phone can't have. A simple Google could have saved you that trouble.

Did you even look at the pic I posted? Have you owned a Samsung phone with a curved display? The issue is on the side of the phone, just like in the picture and the video. There's a GAP on the side of the phone that's between the glass and frame. The glass slightly wraps around the edge, at the end of the glass it's black. If the black part of the screen and the aluminum side aren't flush then you get light that's omitted between the glass and the frame. Not technically light bleed (GAP), if you looked at the pic you'd see. It's a GAP! It's NOT a reflection either. If you had a phone with this issue, you may comprehend this whole thing. My note 8 is manufactured correctly so I don't have a GAP between the glass and the frame. I DON'T have any reflection or light omitting out the side where the glass and frame meet. Simple stuff man but some really have to throw in their one cent and make it a complicated issue. I've shown competent people at a retail store and they totally agreed and understood there was a manufacturing issue. If you own a Samsung with a curved display, do me a favor.. Lol, take a blow dryer and loosen up the glass. Lift it up slightly and bingo! You'd be in the game and understand. :eek:

Yes, I had an S7 edge and s8+. A GAP is not light bleed. It's a gap. If there's a gap then it's defective as I originally said. Return it. 2 different issues. One is a defective, the other doesn't exist. If they ALL have this gap, it's a design choice. One you may not like. I returned my S8 due to pink screen. That was a design choice. They changed the display style and I didn't like it. Not defective just something I didn't like. This MIGHT be your deal breaker. Happens.

And no, I still don't see what your trying to point out. Sorry.

You can't see what I'm pointing out when it's clear as day but you blast the OP when his video was clearly showing the defect. Good thing you don't do quality control for Samsung. The gap isn't a design choice and neither was the pink screen. Wow! Lol.. I had to return a couple S8+'s over the pink screen. Finally ended up with one that wasn't pink.

I'm not calling it light bleed. It's a gap that omits light out the side. Omg, dude. Re read my last post. My whole point is the video was clearly showing something but your ignorance blasted the guy for the video. I called your out over your comment! Get the point now? I know the difference between light bleed and a gap. The light leaks out the gap! I sure as heck know when a device is defective. I've shown a few pics of a defective device. It'd be nice if you were aware how you mistreated the OP with your comment. He said they were exchanging cause they knew the phone's weren't right. Gap not light bleed.. look at pics. Self explanatory. The end!!!!!!

Understood. My original comment about the quality of the video was an absolute joke. It wasn't meant to be taken seriously. The iso was going crazy on the camera and that was all it was. I hope your phone gets fixed. Sounds like a defective device.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] uta8111:
Bingo. AMOLED doesn't have a backlight, so light bleed per se is impossible. And any issue that most people don't notice unless you point it out to them is not likely to be considered much of an issue for a mass-produced product anyway. Tell ya' a story. I used to have Sony Trinitron CRT TVs. At some point I noticed that there were two thin black horizontal lines across the screens about a third of the way down and a third of the way up. These turned out to be a normal part of the way Sony held the shadow mask in place. But once I saw them I couldn't unsee them. Did anybody else care? Apparently not all that many!

[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] Mikxx:
As we all know our 1+5T doesn't support project treble,

so my question is,

is this hardware or software dependent?

In other words,

is it possible for devs to find a way to implement it in future custom roms or in a kernel for our dumpling?

Or would this just be impossible?

Thanks in advance
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] Dior DNA:
Good question.

At least one would need to repartition internal card, if I understood. This alone is not impossible but a bit hard and not without risk.

That said often I wonder if it could be possible to boot, say, TWRP (or any other Linux) from USB and take full dd backup of internal card for all certainty (and then repartition). This is how many Android TV boxes can be backed up (they use u-boot infrastructure). So why not phones?

[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] the Doctor:
This question has been discussed lots before.

https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-5t/how-to/change-org-project-treble-op5t-t3709841

Implementing Project Treble would require repartitioning storage. Also, it gives literally zero benefit to a custom ROM.

TL;DR: It's never going to happen.

Perhaps there is no functional benefit. But porting seems easier for some devices:

Yeah mokee ROM has treble working on the OnePlus One 5T. There's an unused partition that can be created without re-partition in the device and if you install a regular ROM it doesn't see it you install a treble ready ROM and you previously had mokee installed according to the mokee dev it works. It uses the ab style of treble. There is an "a" and "ab" and "a/b" versions from what I read. Mokee is releasing nightlies of their ROM

Haven't tried it on mine pretty happy with the aicp Oreo that I'm running so I can't tell you what bugs it has. Google it XDA has a discussion on mokee and treble with OnePlus 5t
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] NYCgirl:
The Tweaked ROM has much better performance (I saw +30% boost), but comes with SuperSU. For those who prefer Magisk, here's how to swap:

1. Extract boot.img from the ROM (SM+T820+ARA2+TWEAKED+2.0+by+rorymc928)

2. Run a complete backup

3. Boot into recovery

4. Wipe data, dalvik and cache (factory reset)

5. Install the ROM

6. Now you have a working device with SuperSU. To replace it with Magisk, read on.

7. Boot into recovery and install boot.img

8. From recovery, install Magisk

9. Wipe cache

10. Reboot!

After installing the tweaked ROM (and adding Magisk), I see more than 30% boost in performance.

AnTuTu average with stock = 117767

AnTuTu average with tweaked ROM = 155080.5

Improvement = 32%
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] costafabiof:
Good evening, I saw some questions similar to this one in the forum, but none had my kind of doubt.

When a new ROM comes out for both S7 and S8, I install via ODIN using the CSC HOME option, so as not to lose the data.

The problem is in the installation of TWRP whenever I install the same by ODIN, when entering the app and trying to install example no-verity ja start I get the message that the DATA folder has been corrupted and can not be mounted.

This way it only works once again doing WIPE DATA, but then I lose my data and I have to start from scratch.

Is there a way this does not happen or will it always be like this when updating a ROM?

Thank you.

Have you tried backing up data with twrp before you wipe and copying it to your pc so you can do a full wipe then put the backup onto the phone and flash It? You can back up data folder only
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] costafabiof:
Good afternoon,

Thanks for the reply.

So from what I mentioned above, I do a full backup as I normally do, and I also do a separate from the DATA folder.

Then I install the ROM and TWRP, will it corrupt the DATA folder so I restore only it? Would it be this?

If so, will it work out, in relation to being a ROM different from the other?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] godkingofcanada:
The main rom info needed is contained in the system folder. The data folder is application data and whatnot. Reboot into twrp and use the backup option, then copy to pc. Do a full wipe of all, pit backup of data folder and new rom on internal or sd. Go into terp and flash the rom and data folder. Do not flaah system or it will overwrite the new rom. u will restore everything even if you don't have the APK installed in your system. It will return the data, you may need to reinstall the APK. Gmail for example will return will email addresses and messages, contacts and texts will come back to what they were at backup. You should back up modem and efs and boot as well and keep them safe. What I do is I get my phone set up fully, all apps I need and any games and data and then back it up again so any issues and I restore it to a fully functional state and don't need to install tons of things

Good afternoon,

I'm sorry for the text I'm using Google Translate.

I believe that I did not understand correctly, because the error happens in the following way, I install a ROM, reinstall the TWRP, yes yes it corrupts the folder DATA!

Is it a custom Rom or a stock rom? Also you can backup via ADB

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] costafabiof:
The ROM I use is provided by Samsung, with no modifications, when I install it I use the CSC option the HOME file, in order not to lose the data, and of course, I do not lose anything I only update the ROM.

The problem is that I need to reinstall TWRP after installing ROM, and when I access TWRP it has corrupted the DATA folder.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] godkingofcanada:
You can extract the samsung md5 and repack it as a zip with superrs kitchen and then flash it from twrp. Just remove the recovery.img from the extracted files before zipping it up. Then you can simply flash twrp. Then the rom and not have to worry about the fact that you are stuck in a loop of being locked out because you don't need odin for the rom and it won't overwrite your recovery. If that's too much work try using a custom Rom from xda
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] costafabiof:
Thank you very much for your patience. But I'm not clear, or you do not understand.

The problem is not in the ROM, but in the TWRP installation. If I install the ROM with the option CSC HOME I do not lose anything, everything is working correctly.

When I install TWRP it corrupts the DATA folder. The problem is there!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] godkingofcanada:
I was saying to use a zip rom because then you can reflash the rom without reflashing twrp. So you flash twrp, it says data error and then you flash rom from zip, which reinstall system and data but will not copy stock recovery over twrp. So you will not have to reinstall it and be stuck. Or try a different version of twrp might also help. Stock firmware overwrites recovery and the rom. You need to modify it to remove recovery from the firmware, or use a custom Rom to stop it from erasing twrp
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] costafabiof:
I think I understood, more or less, since I translate for Google.

But assuming I want to use normal ROM, you have to back up the DATA folder before installing the ROM and after installing the new ROM and TWRP, restore only the DATA?

Thank you again.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] godkingofcanada:
Yes a new rom will overwrite data, you need a backup before. You should be able to connect your phone to a linux operating system and use adb to connect and back it up, if twrp will not let you take a back up.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] costafabiof:
In my case I can back up the DATA folder by TWRP. Is there doubt, if I back up the DATA folder in one version of Android and then restore in another version, will it be compatible?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] godkingofcanada:
Yes it will be, marshmallow and nougat are completely compatible from the boot loader up. You can also turn your stock samsung md5 into a zip file so you do not need odin to install it. You will be able to flash it from twrp
