I have heard people say that this method of bonding to the edges is more apt to trap heat inside the phone as compared to the other way. Not sure how true that is but there was a discussion on Twitter where it seemed the people who were saying this knew what they were talking about. Might explain, in part, why some say this phone runs hot.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
We would need a list of phones that have the bonding to the edge of the frame and then get some reactions from people, even though it's hard to judge "hot" - there are people who leave their phone out in the sun, there are people that shoot an hour of 4k60fps video footage and expect their phone to have the temperature of a frozen coke, it's hard to judge peoples "experiences" or complaints when they offer no explanation or background info to their problem. Just imagine someone living in the desert and telling you his phone gets hot - is that an issue? No, because it's ****in hot in the desert. You know where I'm going with this. It's definitely possible that the P6 produces a lot of heat, even though most phones I know get quite hot under load, especially the first day when setting it up or when shooting video footage. It's hard to judge without a direct comparison, and most people only have 1 phone a time, or max 2, and they might compare apples to banana - like someone coming from a midrange processor phone with a 1080p camera to this monstrosity of pixels - of course a billion times more details will result in more heat, but the customer doesn't know that, he just has his experience.

So the more "comparable" it gets, like people here talking about their Samsung, OnePlus or whatever flagship counterparts "me shooting 4k60fps, me phone so cold, dude you can cool your ass with that" - then that's important and should be heeded. But those infos... you don't always get.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Lughnasadh:
The people who were saying that this type of bonding was more apt to trap heat inside your phone were talking from a thermal physics perspective. Using that perspective, people with knowledge can usually tell if one particular design is more apt to trap in heat than another. Whether they actually knew what they were talking about is another matter.

But to your point as to whether this phone actually runs hot, I agree about the different variables, experiences, uses, etc.. It's a bit like when people compare SOT (which in my opinion is one of the worst ways to evaluate battery life) with one another, not taking into account all the different variables like usage, apps installed, amount and frequency of notifications received, amount of time the screen was actually off, etc......... Controlled conditions would be most helpful.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] blackhawk:
Heat dissipation.

Glass is a thermal insulator.

The AMOLED display it's self generates a fair amount of heat.

The tighter and closer the glass/AMOLED/internal heat producing elements (or heat sinks)are, the better the heat transfer. Most heat is dissipated through the display especially when using a case.

Dissipating heat effectively from the CPU and hot running chipsets over wider area increases thermal capacity. Some manufacturers use copper vapor phase heat sinks to do this.

Crapware like scoped storage uses more cpu cycles that increase the thermal burden as well as decreasing resources available. 5G increases the thermal burden.

Actual thermal generation is directly linked the battery consumption. The more mAhs the phone uses, the more BTUs it produces and needs to dissipate.

I feel safer with a cool running phone...

You can throw in bigger batteries, vapor phase cooling, thinner more efficient chipsets etc but your thermal dissipation capacity is fixed by area available and materials. Android OS hasn't done its part to reduce system workload, in fact Google has increased it with reliance on cloud storage (no SD card slot) and mandatory use of scoped storage. All of which increase the energy required and thermal burden that otherwise could be more productively used.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] krips2003:
At this time some people are nit picking to return the Pixel 6 Pro for something else. IMO, just use this phone the same way as you did with your old phone and then decide if it exceed your expectation or not. Treat this like your new GF or wife. More imperfection you try to look for, more you'll end up getting 😂 😁 Instead, spend more time with the phone with your day to day task rather than looking for imperfection ✌️🙏
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Golf c:
This phone is awesome. Phones are so similar now. All the pictures look great to me. Whatever floats your boat. Best phone I ever had
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] krips2003:
Same here. I replaced my Pixel 3, which was still working fine. But this is quite better in all aspect than that phone. May be people should upgrade their phones every 3 years instead of every year. That they'll appreciate the new devices more than complaining about the minor things that doesn't even impact anything.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] znel52:
Just got my phone today. While I notice what people are talking about it's not really a big deal to me. Sure I'll be use to it in no time.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] ajsmsg78:
I have the same issue. Press in on middle of the screen towards the top right and you may hear it creak and pop. It almost feels like they forgot to use glue or adhesive. Here's a video of mine:

https://photos.app.goo.gl/PwrsEqf8kGbzmAeL7
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] stuff:
I'm not sure what's with the popularity of trying to nit pick the most random things, but the iphone 13 makes the exact same noise as the pixel 6.

This is likely because of the glass used.

I have both phones and the tapping sound is the exact same, however you only see Pixel purchasers complain. iPhone consumers love their device and don't say this dumb stuff.

Y'all are a real weird group of people. Just enjoy your device.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Burt Squirtz:
Nobody seems to understand the main reason why the screen feels hollow. It's incredibly obvious.

While Google DID partly do this to save a little bit of capital, the main reason is it basically catalyzes the whole area under the screen into a subwoofer!

When I first picked up the phone and played audio I was blown away and how much better these speakers sounded over my S21 Ultra and OnePlus 9 Pro. It wasn't the mids. It wasn't the treble. It was the fullness, richness, and quality base for audio output.

The result is a much fuller sound for not only playing music, videos, and even speaking on the phone.

Google has intentionally left a space of air underneath the screen and the frame - to achieve this effect.

Pretty cool stuff.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] blackhawk:
A resonance chamber? That's very little volume.

Or are they using the glass it's self?

It should be picked up on the tear downs if true...
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] webs50:
I wonder if it has something to do with the great sounding speakers. More hollow inside to get a deeper sound.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] android_dan:
I doubt it. My 4a has the same sound/feel. It's different, not sure that makes it bad. The threads/post on here from posters saying they're returning their phones... IDK, seems fugazi to me. It's like they bought a phone and then set about looking for reasons to hate it/return it. But I find most people around me to be bat **** crazy so not surprised.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Burt Squirtz:
Lol I just posted this a few post back...

It's obvious this is probably the main reason they did this. The sound is much fuller and richer with intentional sound resonance.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Guyinlaca:
I got the phone yesterday and can see what people are talking about, but it's almost exactly the same feeling as recent iPhones. The sound quality, especially with bass and haptic feedback is way better than previous Samsung phones. Yes, Samsung and OnePlus phones feel more dense but I wouldn't consider this an area for concern.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] wilpang:
My last Xiaomi phone had the similar hollow sound when tapped and that had Victus, wasn't a reason for me to send it back.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Izy:
found out why it probably sounds hollow

its got one of the easiest screens to replace, also you take screen off first to replace parts
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Batfink33:
Don't think there's any structural deficiency in the display, it just sounds and feels kind of cheap to me, like typing on plastic. Used to it now anyway.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] EeZeEpEe:
Pretty sure I remember people saying the same thing for the 2 XL and/or the 4 XL. It fine.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Sandeerrss:
My wife has the 6 and it does not have the tapping sound. Does anyone know of putting on a screen protector will "dampen" the sound?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] hundreder:
I doubt it will. Have protector on my wifes 3aXL and it "sounds", and feel like plastic. Thats the reason I didnt put it on my 3XL.

6 and 3Xl are nowhere to be same. 6 simply feels cheep. In quiete sitiations, simple scroling or touching, not even taping, generates hearable sound.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] burbank:
This is because of the way the phone is constructed. Or more accurately how the phone can be taken apart for repair. The screen can easily be replaced because it's not really attached to anything inside except a few clips and a rubber gasket.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] PPCBANDIT:
I like HTC Task Manager's feature, that enables the Quick Menu when pressing the X-button. But I would like to acces the Quick Menu with a hardkey.

Does anybody know how that can be done?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tyguy:
Give SPB Pocket Plus a try.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] PPCBANDIT:
Yes, SPB Pocket Plus has the taskmanager like the Quick Menu. But the reason why I like the one from HTC - is because it is finger friendly.

I have tried the Touch Commander Suite - it has a great task manager (quick menu). But it is not that consistent in its performance - and it keeps closing down - and the only way to get it back is with soft reset. :-(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tyguy:
I thought he meant how to assign a hardware button ... use the button feature from Pocket Plus was my suggestion NOT the task mgr.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tyguy:
actually just coming in my head... do you mean HTC Action Screen. This works perfect with Pocket plus (I have it on long press PTT on my AT&T Tilt).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] PPCBANDIT:
No, I mean the Quick Menu that you can see on the attachment.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] greatbal:
Yes, I'm thinking about this too considering that HTC Task Manager is only available on the Today Screen. It would be nice to be able to access it while in other applications. So, I guess a hardware key mapping is the best solution. Anybody?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tyguy:
Pocket Plus has an "Alt-Tab" function which can be mapped to a hardware key. It'll open a window and either with the stylus or scroll wheel you select the task, press OK (or press the scroll wheel) and you are there.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] wearefree:
If you only want to access that from today screen, HButton does a good job for that. I add the "OK/Close" function to one of the HButtons, and assign that to the "OK" button in the settings->buttons. This way I can use the "OK" button to close most of the running programs, and while in today screen, one hit on the "OK" button will bring up the list of programs in the picture you attached.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] PPCBANDIT:
The problem with the Alt-Tab function is, that you are not able to close one (or all) of the programs - like you can with the Quick menu
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] PPCBANDIT:
Please explain. When I go under settings->buttons, I can only ad the "ok/close" function. Are you saying, that you also have an "ok" function, and when you map the ok function to a hardkey, then you have the list of the programs pop up on the today screen??
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] wearefree:
You have to install HButton.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] keithdupont:
I use Handy Menu, not free though. 4.99 I think. It also gives you some other functions, and it is configurable. I have it mapped to long press camera button.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] S.V.I:
Quick Menu 2.7 does exactly that. All you have to do is tap the start menu. a list of programs running and an X to kill them.

Much quicker than looking for a way to edit taksmanager/Xbutton3(?)

Highly recomend it. I don't use anything else.

Also, you can cook it too:

Install the app; set up your options; export the registries; make a package from the cab (for dsm/rgu ); copy the contents of the reg export to the rgu using text editor. Package complete! now you can cook it and have your options be like you need them.... and there are so many!:D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rocho:
found the solution already? i would also like the htc task popup into a HW button
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] def0:
I did, thanks wearefree for the tip. Use HButton, its OK/Close button handling is different from OS, so it makes exactly what we need. I mapped HW button 2 on my Wizard to HButton and it simulates OK/Close. When any app is in front it minimizes it and when I'm on today it shows HTC Quick Menu.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] corywf:
I recently got an Android head unit and when my phone connects it sets the phone to DND and turns AOD off. I understand this is by design but I don't want it to do that. I already configured tasker to turn DND off when connected to the car. I can't get AOD to turn back on though. So far I've tried the following variables:

aod_mode = 1

doze_always_on = 1

doze_enabled = 1

Does anyone know of any other variables that would control the AOD settings?

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite Guides, News, & Discuss] 7GHz:
Thanks but I would rather say this is not a 'removal' solution but a replacement of the warning boot images.

And this could be done by simply opened 'up_param.bin' file with any zip program or 7zip. Extract those warning files, edit it to your own preferences or simply edit/replace supposed image files.

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite Guides, News, & Discuss] fede2782:
Qcom devices do not have the up_param. The boot image is bundled in the base FW image which must be signed by Samsung, so no modifications are allowed to it. All Samsung devices with a Qcom SoC use a bootloader firmware different from other Samsung devices which use the universal bootloader (Exynos and Mediatek), so on Samsungs with Qcom you cannot remove/hide the warning logo

[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite Guides, News, & Discuss] NoClue1:
Hello together, removing the unlocked bootloader warning worked on my SM-P615 device. Running LOS21 on it.

But now i got following issue: i can´t shut down the tablet anymore. While it is shutting down, the devices stucks for a moment with "shutting down" message on the display, then the screen goes black and the tab restarts again.

To turn off the device I tried following things:

- adb shutdown command

- adb reboot recovery (doesn´t reboot to recovery, only restarts the tab)

- reflashing the whole device (LOS recovery + LOS.zip via recovery) doesn´t fix anything (included wipe cache and format data) and didn´t bring the unlocked boot loader warning back.

- flashing the stock fw via odin doesn´t work too

The only way to power it off (without draining battery), is to restart it, hold down Volume+ and Power Key for entering recovery mode. And press shut down in recovery mode.

Any suggestions if the issue was released by the boot loader warning avoid change?

Is there any way to bring it back to stock fw with the stupid unlocked BL warning @razs.originals ?

Or maybe the tab is hardbricked by whatever?

Thank you in advance

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Edit:

It´s fixed. It was necessary to put the pit file manually into odin.

I followed this guide: https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-repai...sh-stock-firmware-in-samsung-devices.4452839/

With the pit file the flashing process with odin was successful.

Now the devices is shutting down the normal way and the annoying unlocked boot loader warning screen is back
