[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] AsItLies:
Have to agree [MENTION=3159964]puppettestpilot[/MENTION] - it probably is true the main reason many mfg's went to 4:3 was because of Apple doing it. Mistake imho, they can be wrong folks, they make mistakes. 16:10 to me, is much more appropriate for what the device is generally used for.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] gottahavit:
Glad they got rid of 4:3, phones aren't 4:3 monitors aren't 4:3, TV's aren't 4:3. Only advantage is note taking. I read comics on my tablet and 4:3 just doesn't work.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] yourmumsbootloader:
there's an ipad for that. 4:3 that is. 16:10 works better in many ways.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Aqua1ung:
Web browsing is also much better on 4:3 (which is the majority usage scenario). And why would anyone spring for a tablet with a stylus if they don't intend to use it? A tablet with no stylus should do just as well. Occasional TV and video watching should be fine on 4:3. You want to do professional/dedicated movie watching? Get yourself a man cave, don't buy a tablet with a stylus!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] gottahavit:
I prefer browsing on 16:10, most sites are designed for 16:10(majority of all computer displays and TVs). I didn't say note taking wasn't good on 16:10, I simply conceded your point that for some people I can understand why it would be easier. Why would I buy a 2K tablet with amoled hdr display and never use it for movies and why would I want to waste 1/3 of that beautiful display with black bars? When I'm on a plane watching movies on the ipad pro is no comparison with this tablet.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Too51oll:
You are the only one in this conversation who doesn't like this aspect ratio so, go and don't buy it then. Leave as alone ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] gellmar:
When I was in choice between Tab S 10.5 and Tab S2 9.7, I made quite an extensive research with the usability of device in remote desktop scenario. Since I used Splashtop daily, I ended up setting 1680x1050 screen for both my 24" monitor and my 10.5" tablet so I got what Microsoft now calls Continuum back in early 2014. The optimum resolution of virtual screen for S2 is only 1440x1050 as 1600x1200 makes Windows fonts barely readable. With 10.5" resolution at 1680x1050 everything is perfect.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] chanhny:
16:10 better video than 4:3. 4:3 you will see black top and bottom very big
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Aqua1ung:
Why would you need a stylus for a tablet devoted to watching video? Watching video is a tangential purpose for this tablet: its main purpose (though undeclared) is productivity, and esp. stylus-based productivity.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] chanhny:
stylus? hahha. most monitor have 16:9, 21:9. many artist still work well on it. hahha. don't make me laugh.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Aqua1ung:
The sort of "artistry" you're talking about is not one that this tablet is made for. No one will do serious drawing on a tablet, least of all on a small Android tablet. The kind of "productivity" I have in mind is more along the lines of note-taking, occasional sketching etc. Something rather loose and casual, nothing very serious.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Too51oll:
You don't know how to give up, do you? We all know you don't like and we all do like it, so get over it, get an S3 or an iPad. Sorted.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] TesseractSpace:
My note taking and sketching seems to go just fine on a 16x10 tablet. Not sure why aspect ratio would really matter for that unless one is super picky.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] episode96:
I kinda agree. I think it's sort of weird for Samsung to go back to 16:10 and my feeling is that their main goals were: one to get rid of some bezel (that's the Holy Trend these days) and two, match the 10.5" size of the iPad Pro to keep the appearance of direct competition alive. Maybe for whatever reason they found it easier to just go back to their 2560x1600 10.5" display of old rather than produce a 2224 x 1668 4:3 display which if I'm not mistaken it's what would be required to keep the 264 ppi in that size and ratio.

Having had both the original Tab S and now the S3 I personally wouldn't want to go back to a 16:10 device. I think it's pretty obvious just by looking at their Dex screenshots that even if you don't consider a portrait use case 16:10 gives you constrained vertical space when you take into account the space taken by the navigation bar at the bottom. There's a good reason why the Surface Pro and the Pixel Slate are 3:2 and I think 3:2 would have been a good compromise for this tablet, especially when Samsung themselves are marketing it as a productivity tablet whatever that means and not a media consuming tablet (like they actually did with the original Tab S). Even Samsung's Windows tablets are 3:2 I guess for the same reason so...

Having said that, it is what it is and as you can see there are people who are happy with 16:10 because at the end of the day it's up to your preference and use cases so better luck next time. Think of it as a way to keep your S3 for longer (as is my case) or get a new one at a discounted price.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Aqua1ung:
Thanks for the thoughts. Unfortunately I do not have an S3, as I was hoping to purchase the S4, but now the S4 is no longer an option, and the S3 is still expensive as hell! Still over $500, after all this time! Can you believe that! Anyway, let's hope Asus issues an updated ZenPad S3 and brings back the stylus.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] iceepyon:
I am just happy that they haven gotten away from the stupid 4:3 aspect ratio. I've got a Note 8.0 WiFi edition which has a 16:10 aspect ratio, which is excellent for media consumption. As the majority of all modern videos are encoded in the standard 16:9 widescreen ratio so having the 16:10 ratio is good for media consumption.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] ShadowFlare:
I was highly disappointed when Samsung released Tab S2 in 4:3 format, and then S3 also in 4:3 format. Why oh why do they have to follow iPad format. I stayed with my beloved Tab S 8.4 and so excited that Samsung switched back to 16:10 format on S4, about damn time. Tablets are best for media consumption; reading comics/manga, watching films/movies. They can do some productivity work but only when you don't have your laptop with you.

So this 4:3 vs 16:10 is subjective, but seems a lot more people welcome the S4 in its 16:10 glory!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] snoopygum:
I have an S4 tablet and I can't disagree with the OP more. But for argument's sake, let's say it's stupid to use the S4 for watching movies like the OP says.

What makes even less sense to me, however, is to use an expensive tablet with a high-res AMOLED screen for low-res tasks like note-taking. Any cheap laptop, or cheap chromebook, or even a cheap tablet with a generic stylus, will be just as good at taking notes than the S4.

But none of those options are as good as the S4 for watching movies on the go.

I don't understand why utilizing the most outstanding and irreplicable feature of the tablet, which is the spectacular AMOLED high-res screen, to watch videos, is stupid, while buying an overpriced tablet (let's face it, the S4 is overpriced, we can all agree on that) for low-res tasks like note-taking just because it comes with a stylus, isn't.

Why would anyone spring for a tablet with a top-notch high-res AMOLED screen if they don't intend to utilize it to the fullest and just takes notes instead? Is it because it comes with a stylus, which is a feature that can be easily replicated with a cheap aftermarket one? I dare say that most people who own the S4 consider the high-res screen THE must-have selling point, and the stylus as a throw-in for the high price.

By the way, a man cave, with 150" OLED screens with subwoofers, tweeters, and all that jazz, is wonderful. No argument about that. I have experienced one to its fullest eye-blinding, ear-splitting, sensory-overloading potential, and IT IS BETTER than the S4 in all A/V matters. But there's one unfixable problem with it. It's not portable.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] aspexil:
You are in luck. $444 on Amazon today. That is a lot less than the $769 for the Apple iPad Pro.

Look. We get it. You don't like the S4. The rest of us that actually have one and use it on a daily basis love it. I used it last week to watch videos while on the plane and note taking at work. It did both well. That is what I need it for.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] canadoc01:
Funny reason I am getting tab 4 is the aspect ratio. When reading magazines prefer something taller than 4:3.

Watching videos there is much less wasted real estate. Hate my old iPad watching YouTube or Netflix and half the screen is used up by black bars. Might as well watch on my phone.

Look at all Mac laptops. Guess their aspect ratio. Not 4:3y MBP 15.inch is 16:10. Much better to have 2 windows side by side.

Guess it depends on your use case.

3:2 that Microsoft and new 11 inch iPad pro seems to be a compromise though I prefer 16:10. Would agree that 16:9 is best only for video
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] usju:
Every since Tab S, I was waiting for Samsung to make another OLED widescreen tablet. This is it.

Those who prefer 4:3 can stick with their Tab S3's.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] resinis:
i think 16:9 is better in portrait mode for hand holding. 4:3 with a 10" tablet is hard to hold in the hands.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] AsItLies:
And that to me kind of sums it up. So the next question you might have to ask yourself is, it's a tablet right? Do you think you'll be holding it in your hands? Then buy what's appropriate for the use.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] aouni_tahech:
Coming from the S3, I'm also here mainly for the aspect ratio. It's SO MUCH BETTER for media consumption. The S3 wastes the screen top and bottom with black bars, making it effectively look like a small tablet. It's also easier to hold in hand and navigate through the websites etc...

I'd never go back to 4:3

Edit: Added attachment for reference (S3 vs S4).
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] andropest:
I think 16:10 is a reasonable compromise between 4:3 and 16:9. It's ok for watching videos as well as for viewing websites in landscape mode.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] _Quaked:
The real win is 3:2 that uses Microsoft on their Surface devices. Its beween 4:3 and 16:10. Almost perfect for everything.

Well said! There no going back, it's an awesome aspect ratio 16:10 format ROCKS!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] mingkee:
I'd prefer between 16:9 and 2:1

4:3 is a waste when watching videos and you can hardly tell the difference between portrait and landscape.

That's why I didn't like old Tab A models and S2 and S3

Tab A 2019 (T510) is perfect for me
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Note10.1Dude:
I'm a fan of 16:10. I wish I could still get a phone in that ratio, the current 2:1 screens are too narrow. Same for a laptop - 16:9 is too short, but I don't need 4:3. I get the like of 4:3 when you need lots of data lines, but that is when I swing my screen to portrait mode. My tablet is mostly media consumption. 16:10 is a nice balance for either video in landscape or news reading in portrait.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] doggydog2:
4:3 is dead long time ago, my problem is 16:9 or 16:10 is also getting old and i'd like the ultimate format 21:9. natural for eyes, most productive and great for movies and pictures (phones now do wider pictures and phones also have screens in almost 21:9 as they go taller and taller).

21:9 is the goal.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Aqua1ung:
For watching movies on the go, 4:3 should be just fine. If you need to watch a movie like a boss, build yourself a man cave complete with a 146" TV (Samsung's The Wall should do), 5 speakers and a subwoofer. Otherwise, like I said, 4:3 should be more than enough for a train trip, or crammed like a sardine on a plane.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] doggydog2:
you can't stop progress. 4:3 is totally useless.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Note10.1Dude:
Well,

4:3 would be much more useful to me than 7:3, so I wouldn't call it useless. For my use case, any wider than 16:10 and the device is less useful, either not enough rows or not enough columns, depending which way to hold it. There is a reason letter paper is not the format of 3 sheets of TP still stuck together.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Guides, News, & Discussion] lolwatpear:
Lol 16:10 is not progress. Ask Apple whose tablet division makes a profitable product actually crams the best hardware inside every year (120hz displays, unbeatable speakers, best SoCs, etc.). The only thing Samsung has going for it is AMOLED. 16:10 is good for.... movies. 4:3 is good for books, comics, web browsing, and note taking. 4:3 only makes 16:9 content a bit smaller on the screen. It does not, however, make the tablet uncomfortable for use in certain scenarios like 16:10.

You probably didn't even give it time to settle in before making that determination. I, too, was concerned initially. I can say, that after setup, a few reboots and general settle in time, the ROM is quite snappy.

Being beta, there are some issues. I had to install Google Services for some reason. Magisk isn't ready to go out of the box and needs some setup. Other than that, I need more time to gauge performance, off charge results and general stability.

Hi everyone, I am with Telus, however, I want to know if the internet sharing program on the phone the same as tethering and if telus will be able to tell if I tethering or not? I have just got the $15 unlimited data from them. But that does not include tethering only unlimited download on the phone.

thanks.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] golfofdeath:
From what I have seen, there is no way for the carriers to tell if you're tethering (internet sharing) or just using your phone to surf the net. Just don't get too excessive with your data transfer, because then they can guess that you are tethering and bill you for "excessive use". Just don't download large files and you will be fine.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] skanskan:
I've just bought a Xiaomi Mi 8 phone with Chinese ROM and I'm about to flash a new ROM, maybe the Xiaomi.eu ROM. I also want to but a deep flash cable, just in case.

I've found there are many programs:

XiaomiTool, MiFlash, XiaomiADB, My PC Suite, other...

and many different adb drivers:

platform-tools-latest-windows.zip, ADB universal controllers, Xiaomi USB controllers

If you had to keep just one which one would it be?

Is any of them better than the other?, Any discouraged?

Does any do everything that others don't?

I have previous experience with other devices, usually copying the ROM to the SD and using TWRP or sometimes using the adb command. But I have no experience with Xiaomi, that don't have SD card.

The solution

So, if you're still looking for a solution, I can give you one, but stupid... You need to download the TWRP backup for XT1068 and install it.

https://xdaforums.com/mot...w-6-0-t3313148

Al least the phone will work, but you'll also face some problems like laggy auto-rotation (the picture will be upside down in landscape mode) and also you'll have 2 SIM cards (XT1072 has only one sim card slot)

That means we should ask someone to make a backup of stock firmware (or at least stable LineageOS firmware) and restore it with TWRP.

Please, if anyone still has this phone on stock or any other firmware which WORKS make a backup and upload it to the internet.

IT WOULD BE REALLY COOL, BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE THIS PHONE AND THEY CAN'T FLASH ANY ROM WITH ERROR 7!!!
