Post your most recent batter life number if you have a note 8 on the new android oreo update, lets compare and see how we can maximize use
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] OnnoJ:
Again, really? Just use it and recharge when required...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Jammol:
I'm bot usually that guy, but I tend to agree with this guy. Do we really need to obsess over how long we can use the device before the battery dies?

I've found that just using the device without caring how long it lasts, I get way longer than expected battery life.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] stonedpsycho:
The problem with this is, everyone uses their phone differently. So unless people will tell us how bright the screen was, using wifi, 4g, gaming, Facebook and for how long, etc etc, it would be pointless IMO. If you want better battery life, reduce brightness, as this is the biggest drain on the battery, stop all syncing, remove apps like Facebook, reduce the resolution, turn on power saving and turn off animations or put them to .5.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] shouren04:
Exactly & agree on all the above. SOT is so over rated & it's easily to manipulate the results. I mean I have posted my SOTs before but I use it only for comparison, ie rom & kernel testing based on my own phone usage. Comparing SOT with others' results doesn't really mean anything except to those looking for some kind of useless bragging rights.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Aki07:
I find the Oreo update sucks. I dont know if its just me. my phones gets heated for no reason, even if its not being used or charging. Battery Life sucks so downgraded the Noughat. Happy to have the 5-7hours SOT and less heated phone.

sorry, I know some of you are just enjoy the phone etc, Im trying to find out what other people are getting as I seem to be draining pretty bad, when I use better battery stats it shows wifi running 100% despite it being off

Battery life dropped a lot with the Oreo update for me, har resetting, cache resetting nothing is helping. I get tops 3 and a half hours.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Alek7:
Yeah Oreo sucks I got only 3.5 hours SOT now back on Nougat I'm getting again 5-7 hours SOT
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] scoutingwraith:
Didnt want to open a new thread for another Battery consultation. I have the 950U1 model and after upgrading to Oreo ive had an average of 1 hour and 15 min of Screen time and it drained my battery %6. Is that within the norms of how it is? Just curious.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] nandroidint:
You guys make me regret getting oreo,i think i should go back to nougat, are you getting 5-7 with what seeting im thinking I should roll back?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] infrasonic13:
Anyway, this is very strange as the majority is having possitive feedback on battery life, also the Oreo itself is having some battery (app) optimizations that should help... but no!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] winol:
I started other thread asking for opinions about the OTA oreo, I mean only OTA, as some got their oreo in beta or cross flashing from other countries, or changing some parts, In my country we dont have OTA oreo yet, at least for officially distribuited devices which are ALL branded, (locked or unlocked), as samsung does not sell cellphones to consumers directly in Mexico, only through 3 carriers,but all these comments make doubt about updating from nougat, reading this thread has made my uncertainty bigger, in the meantime, I disabled OTA updates, just in case, maybe waiting for Oreo 8.1 would be better

You can't accurately judge/assess battery life in increments. Go through a few full cycles and see what averages out.

Heads up,

My Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge received an update to version G935TUVS4BRC1.

More info and details spotted at T Mobile News

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] kpreston200:
Links?

So can we get a link that I can ODIN WITHOUT signing up and paying money as usual?

My S7E wifi has been broken since last update and no matter what I do it keeps breaking.

I put in a clean install and it works great until T-Mobile forces updates behind my back.

They have known a long time about the issue and blames Samsung "as always"

I'm never buying another Samsung device ever.

I was always just fine with a cheap Chinese knockoff that was unlocked.

They care less what you do with the phone as long as they get paid.

I miss Cyanogen and the fun of changing OS's
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] serendipityguy:
G935TUVS4BRC

If this doesn't work for ya, try to google G935TUVS4BRC1 and make sure that you are using the correct stock rom for T-Mobile and Samsung Galaxy Edge 7. Not AT&T, Not Verizon . . .

You can always Odin back to stock

But those links of course...Sign up and for money if I want the premium speeds.

It's funny how the Android OS is critical to using your phone and it is always either broken or you have to pay to get what is free in the first place.

I had made a copy of ISO file of Windows Media file on a USB drive.

In my new MSDOS laptop, I inserted my pen drive and started installing Windows.

After installation black screen appeared and it again asked me to install windows.

I tried to install it again but while choosing the partition it showed me an error:

There was an error installing Windows​

I pressed the power button and the laptop switched off.

I turned it on but the same error persisted while installing the Windows.

Somewhere I found the option for System Recovery and clicked on it.

It showed an error something like:

The installation media could not be found in the external disk.

Contact your system administrator for a media file.

Error code:0xc000000f​

The error was quite longer than this but the main points were these.

And every time I am turning on my pc I find the above-given error.

I think I had done some mistake choosing the partition while installing the Windows 10 for the first time.

There were two partitions 1 and 2 and an unallocated space for more than 950GB.

I chose the unallocated space.

Restart your PC, and try to install Windows again.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] rufireproof:
I am looking to switch from my current phone, and want to give Lineage a try.

I am seeing conflicting information. Does the 2nd screen work with Lineage? If it does, or doesn't what will I experience either way? A large chunk of black real estate on my screen? or will the main screen cover the whole screen? I don't mind tinkering, but my main goal is a fairly stable/usable phone without Google. I am also considering a Nexus 6p, but if I can make a v20 work, I prefer the replaceable battery.

Any input is appreciated.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] rivethead23:
Honestly the V20 seems to be a phone that is best with a stock based ROM. Super V20 for example.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] toastyp:
The main losses on lineage are the second screen and the dip in audio performance. However, as a rom I think lineage performs better than LG ux, with fewer bugs and more relevant features. Plus, lineage is regularly maintained and updated, unlike LG ux which hasn't seen a rebase for the entirety of the lifespan of the v20. There's a balance between software features and hardware functionality you might want to test for yourself.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S7 SM-G930V. It has installed Android 7.0. Some months ago I'd installed ENGBOOT to get root, but I want to get rid of that. The phone is too slow, WiFi doesn't work, and I have a padlock on the boot screen as shown in the picture.

I alredy flashed the stock ROM with every file (AP, BL, CP, CSC), wipe data, wipe cache. And it stills showing the padlock on boot screen and WiFi is not working. How can I definitely remove the ENGBOOT?

I realize this is pretty late - but in case someone else needs this answered :

The trick to removing the padlock on newer phones / firmwares is once you flash stock via Odin and perform a factory data reset, let it boot to the system and go through the setup wizard like normal. Then boot to download mode afterwards. Once you boot back up, the padlock will be removed.

[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] James_Watson:
Maybe you have to contact a local customer service center of Huawei.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] kolembo:
I have a very strange solution is you want to try it!

The only real solution for locking yourself out is to visit a Huawei Center - the security is unbreakable.

Give this a try:

Before you go to bed, out a pen and paper out beside your bed.

Concentrate on when you bought your phone and imagine yourself unlocking it.

As soon as you wake up (it has to be done immediately) start writing whatever comes to your mind... With the dream that you were having, anything and everything.

Write for at least 5 mins. Everything.

Give it a go, you'll get some interesting information.

P.S. it's much more difficult to do than you think...your mind fights you when you wake up...you just have to grab the paper and start writing immediately!

Good afternoon friends,

It's been awhile since I posted but I am looking to buy a new phone for my 12 year old son as his current unlocked att Alcatel allure that I picked up from Wally last year on clearance for $30 is just too slow & sluggish, plus att won't ever be updating it past 5.0 lp.

I seen that someone posted on Slickdeals that I can get him a brand new LG G5 on eBay for $120 w/ free shipping. Overall it gets decent reviews & but people posted that battery life was not so great along with having GPS problems. Spec wise it beats almost any mid range or budget phone available today. His current phone is a 5.5 in screen phone so I don't think a 5.3 will really bother him as the ram/rom along with screen resolution is better than his current phone. My main worries is if it gets the dreded LG boot loop issues?

I'm also looking at and considering the LG Stylo 3 plus, or the Samsung J7 prime but yet again the G5 beats em in specs. Looking for recommendations on any of these phones or a similar inexpensive phone for my son. Thank you very much & have a wonderful day!! [emoji848]
