[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr. Orange 645:
Which is why is said Note users "typically" use the phone for work and productivity.

The opposite is also true about the S series. They are TYPICALLY used used by just typical consumers, but are sometimes used for work and productivity.

Panasonic toughbook laptops are TYPICALLY used in law enforcement, fire departments, and other industrial settings, but that doesn't mean some there are SOME consumer level users.

I didn't mean to mischaracterise you or your usage, nor did I intend to make you feel left out. But as a matter of practicality, I can not 100% covert ever single user's individual use case scenario, I can merely comment on what I generally see in each segment of the consumer base. There will always be overlap.

So you're not left out...you're special. ;)

---------- Post added at 11:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:13 AM ----------

This brings me back to my original point though. Forget productivity, if you just use the Note series for top tier specs, then what exactly do you expect them to do with the S series? There's a 6 month difference between the Note and S series release. We are a point in time when even YEARLY updates are merely incremental. There's no large leaps forward.

So again, we would have to ask Samsung to purposely gimp the S Series and alienate at least half (if not more) of their user base to make us happy so we have the best and toppest of top tier.

I mean they gimped the Note 10 so the Plus would be better and Note fans are mad about that. So what do you expect the S Series fans to say or feel when Sammy does that to them?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
I wouldn't even say typically without some kind of numbers.

Given the community I've observed from the note 2 on, maybe it started that way when it was more of a niche phone but after iPhone started making larger phones and it become more mainstream, more consumers started purchasing it. More casual users typical of the larger market

Samsung has enterprise device support for business and they push out last year's model of the basic S device.

Most of the Reddit users I come across don't seem like business users. I mean some are sprinkled here and there, but I wouldn't say the trend is towards professionals..

Im working for a company that builds drones and space shuttles and your options for work phones that the company will pay for and allow on our Network are the S8 and some iphone.

The tough book example doesn't really work because that isn't really a big consumer device at all. You're paying for a rugged platform that is a LOT more than its consumer counterpart minus the military spec'd ruggedness. Samsung wants everyone to have this phone.

This reminds me of the people that would state that Nexus devices were for devs, but it was only people in the forum, Google never advertised that way because it's a great way to scare away sales..
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr. Orange 645:
Ok, that's all fair. I retract my statement about typical use. Everything else I stated still stands however.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] chetly968:
What i would've expected, instead of gimping the s10, is the latest SoC instead of one that was six months old, a headphone jack, at least as much storage as that found in the top specced s10+. That would've been the minimum. The Note feels like a lateral move when it could've been much more. And what's the deal with the Verizon exclusive on 5g phones. Gotta wait til the 4th quarter for it to trickle down to other phones? I'll have moved in to the s11. Hopefukmy the 865 integrates 5g so this hogwash is over.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] winol:
Debating all these is just pointless, samsung just decided to make 2 models, that's it, pick the one that suits your needs/taste, just like that.

This reminds me of the times when cwllphones made its appearance, only wealthy people could afford them, later, when the prices went down, many of those began to complain as "now anybody can have a cell phone, even if poor and not having a car, good clothes, bla bla bla" so, it is just non sense to talk about samsung making a huge mistake in making 2 devices this time, as things are going, the note 10 will sell less than the 10+, depending on how big the difference turns out, this might be a one time thing, or not
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr. Orange 645:
855 is the most current SoC. The 855+ is just an overclocked 855. This has been the case the last several years. The Note is released with the same SoC as the S series.

The headphone jack is going away. God or bad, it's fact. Samsung held on for longer than anyone else, but it's gone. So are physical home keys. Everyone griped about that too.

I will concede your point about the top end storage, although rumors are they will be introducing a 1TB 5G model. You also have to remember, Samsung is a business. It's possible the 1TB models didn't sell enough to justify putting 1TB in the N10+. The 128GB N9 outsold the 512GB model by a large margin, so they only made one color available this year in the 512GB model (initially anyway).

As far as 5G? Well...Verizon is the only carrier with half a 5G network. Makes no sense to release them for other carriers until those carriers roll out their 5G network. No, ATT's fake 5G doesn't count. Plus right now, Samsung makes one model that works on all carriers. I'm hoping they are planning to continue this model with 5G devices that work on any carrier.

---------- Post added at 02:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:45 PM ----------

I agree. Im holding this device, thinking what an absolutely amazing device it is. And people are actually complaining it's not advanced enough. We're Note people, were entitled to a better phone than S series people.

If it's not enough of an upgrade, then don't buy it, and move on.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] winol:
Exactly, if the note10+ lacks all the things the complainer want/wish/desire, let aside the exynos soc gripe, there are literally tons of devices out there, go get a huawei mate30, a pixel 4, or whatever the chinese feel compelled to spill, as next year, s11, note11 will not be good enough for all, the same story wil repeat again, and again.

I am just patiently waiting for my aura black note10+, because it is the device I REALLY LIKE AS IT IS

[Moto G6 Play Questions & Answers] needhelp4:
I can't relock my bootloader no matter what I do, I always get this message:

command: fastboot oem lock begin

(bootloader) Check 'Allow OEM Unlock' in Android Settings > Developer

(bootloader) Options

OKAY [ 0.004s]

Finished. Total time: 0.006s

Why is this happening? I'm not trying to unlock it, it's already unlocked. I was able to relock it once before today but now I can't. I've tried wiping everything on twrp and installing different firmware but still get the same message. Before this I used to get a message saying "Please fully flash the signed build before locking phone" when I tried locking.
[Moto G6 Play Questions & Answers] ninjakira:
Why are you trying to relock it? Unlocking a bootloader does not cause performance issues or anything wrong and there is simply no point in relocking it. If your wanting to relock it before sending it in to Motorola don't even bother. They will know if it's been unlocked and relocking it doesn't magical get your warranty back. If selling it simply tell the person that the performance of the phone is not affected at all.
[Moto G6 Play Questions & Answers] Spaceminer:
I really don't understand why this comes up so much. The answer is almost always the same too, warranty, sale, or return. None of which are good reasons to lock it.

This is a bit off topic but I'm going to share it anyways because I think it's hilarious. I once rooted and installed twrp on my neighbors phone to debloat it. Now, he's not tech savvy in the least bit. A few days later, he accidentally boots into twrp while turning his phone on. I wasn't home so he couldn't ask me what to do. In his anger and frustration, he dunked it right in the toilet. It still worked after that so he went to Best Buy to return it. The geek squad in all their wisdom... thought that twrp was special software designed to break into government servers. They call the police. The police show up and don't know what it is, or what to do with it. After 2.5hrs of head scratching and a nice chat with the FBI, he finally got his phone replaced. (The FBI knew exactly what it was.) If anyone had bothered to read what twrp's menus say, they would've understood what it was for in like 1-2min.

Tales from the tech department...

Takes longer to boot and reboot. Stays stuck on bad key for a little while before it actually boots.

[Moto G6 Play Questions & Answers] needhelp4:
Takes longer to boot.
[Moto G6 Play Questions & Answers] Spaceminer:
That's not true. An unlocked device actually boots up slightly faster. The reason why is; when you unlock the bootloader it skips verifying the boot.img signature. Meaning there's actually less work for the cpu to do before startup. The difference is extremely minimal though and probably not noticable without timing it in milliseconds.
[Moto G6 Play Questions & Answers] needhelp4:
You can see why in my reply to ninjakira. The screen displays 'bad key' on boot and only after a while restarts and actually boots.
[Moto G6 Play Questions & Answers] Spaceminer:
It's actually not restarting. That's the bootloader handing off control to the boot.img. The bad key screen, is actually the boot logo screen. The bootloader is just designed to show that instead of the logo if you're unlocked. The boot animation has it's own splash screen that perfectly matches the one in the boot logo. So when you're still locked and the hand-off occurs, it looks seamless. When you're unlocked it goes from black to the Moto logo, so you end up seeing the transition. The current brightness setting also kicks in at the boot animation, which makes it look even worse when unlocked. You can fix that by flashing one of my boot logos from here.

Does Martin Fields Screen Protectors have Camera hole

Does the Martin Fields Screen Protectors have 2 holes ?
[Touch Cruise Accessories] JNGold:
The M.F. is exactly like the included protector from HTC.
[Touch Cruise Accessories] The_Steph:
Martin Fields screen protectors for HTC Touch Cruise do not have hole for the front camera but this is not an issue as they are not glued on screen.

I bought 2 of them and I was scared of that when I receivend them but having only one hole for speakerphone did not create any issue. However be careful if you have grasy fingers, you will easily see smudges on the screen protector.

Final thought : quite good product!

The one I bought from MobilePlanet (Expansys) absolutely had a separate hole for the camera. I have it on now.

Ordered mine from factory web site, No Camera Hole!

I ordered a Martin Fields Screen Protector from the factory web site (http://www.overlayplus.com/). I am in Tampa, FL., USA so they had my order drop shipped from ETrade in Bentonville, AR., USA. I was very disapointed to see no hole was provided for the camera. I am not sure how well it will work thru the protector. If they have 2 versions, they should let us know in advance.
[Touch Cruise Accessories] JulianL:
Mine has a front-camera hole

I just ordered mine from www.mobilefun.co.uk - it arrived yesterday and does have a hole for the front camera.

My theory is that Martin Fields updated the design and that people getting ones without the hole are buying from resellers that placed big orders of the previous version and are still running down old stock.

[Touch Cruise Accessories] timmymarsh:
Who doesnt want to ever buy another screen protector again??

Google "invisibleshield" and be impressed. I was so impressed i bought the screen only one, about 11$ i think. Ive had it for 3 months now and it is AMAZING:D It doesnt mark, scratch or anything. takes a little getting used to it to start with as it is soft not hard like traditional protectors.

It is a little tricky to install and place spot on in the right place and use plenty of the spray, but hey, you only have to do it the once right??:D

I cannot over emphasise how good it is, so go right now!!!

Make sure you use the american site however, the ones being sold on some uk sites dont have holes for the front camera, the US ones do:D

Hey, ive never seen those in actual shops, only on Expansys website. Also consider looking at invisibleshield.com, it's non scratch. I found those martin field ones were knackered after about 3-4 months.

I hated the ZAGG invisible shields -- impossible to get on right, and then they were so spongy I couldn't write on the screen.

Let's say I've got an app up for pre-registration.

Can I then launch the app into the open beta track from the Google Play console?

If so, will people who pre-registered get a notification to download the beta version of the app (in beta, they can't leave reviews yet, only provide feedback to me, the developer).

Basically, I'm interested to learn if I can go:

Closed Alpha (people invited via their Google account) -> Pre-register phase -> Open Beta (no reviews, only feedback) - > Full launch?

Or can you only go from Pre-registration to the Production track (full release)?

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] KevMetal:
stop stressing . you have ARB4 so just flash a custom rom ...or flash only the LASTEST STOCK ROM ...you didn't listen and tried to flash another think ...so your phone went to hardbrick edl mode

your phone is fine it is just in a timeout edl mode

the only way to fully rescue it is by physically forcing testpoint then flashing LATEST FASTBOOT STOCK ...this time listen or stay on black screen
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] RiFeee:
Already did it and gets worse, if I flash the latest fastboot Stock ROM really becomes a brick, to de point of not even the screen turns on and stay on edl mode forever.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] KevMetal:
because you are trying to downgrade

what you need to do is flash the LATEST chinese fastboot stock rom of Wayne or it will never work

you need to flash it with edl and miflash ( LATEST BETA)

you keep on thinking you can flash any stock rom but you can't ......

if you try to flash any stock rom older than the last stock rom you flashed it will never boot and keep going back to edl blackscreen

if you DON'T open your phonr and short the test point miflash will timeout or give errors and device wont boot

open your phone with screwdriver and flash the VERY latest chinese fastboot rom with latest miflash beta

[Samsung Galaxy A40 Guides, News, & Discussion] joaofl:
I have just acquired a Samsung Galaxy A40 phone. In my opinion, it has one of the best size/price/performance ratios on the market, reason why I bough it.

However, one very sad point about it is that there is still no LineageOS or any other custom ROMs to this phone, forcing myself to stick to the Samsung ultra-bloated distribution.

Having to accept this fact, my first action was to clean the phone the best I could, by removing any unnecessary crap from Sansumg and others from Google, Linkedin, Facebook and anything not strictly necessary. I based my list on some available (find ref on the script), but I also added some other useful commands.

Let me know if this works out for you, and if you have any point to add to the list. Find it attached on the Gist below:

https://gist.github.com/joaofl/7671e7e96a760e9b368992d6694a33d9

Before running it, I recommend reading the comments on the scrip, so that you dont end up without keyboard for example.

Hope it suites you!

By the way, do you have any information on when or if there is anybody working on a custom ROM (Lineage preferably) for this device?
