indeed. Video decoding is hardware accelerated by custom blocks made just for that.
very low CPU/GPU usage.

That would be the anomaly. The exception rather than the rule.
I did other stuff first but was only running YouTube for 10 minutes when I got the warning.
Live in Silicon Valley currently posting from Japan. One of my friends made me paranoid and I used Hotel Wi-Fi while I was in Shanghai. Facebook, Google, Instagram, line did not work. I could not connect to any of those services. I installed maps.me and a few other offline map so I can get around there. It mostly worked but my location was set to device only.
In Japan GPS didn't work with maps or anything on my Wi-Fi hotspot so I went to location service I try to turn on battery saver and it kept prompting me about AutoNavi needing access on that screen. Said something like " allow AutoNavi to continually send anonymous map data even when the program isn't running?"
There was a don't show this message again option you could check a box and then decline or accept if you checked the box to not show it again decline was greyed out. I kept hitting decline but then I couldn't select the option and I was stuck on device only. So I left the don't show again unchecked and finally hit accept. Did I just screw myself and now do you see one of these apps I downloaded or do some zero-day exploit due to using their Wi-Fi I now have infected my phone?
Any advice or suggestions on how to remove this program from having access to my phone?

They still haven't fixed that? I remember XDA complaining about that months ago
I thought most apn settings were delivered when the sim is installed nowadays.

Honor 8's camera continues to impress me. It focuses fast and accurate and produces great pics in nearly every situation.

Moto G4 might be your best bet at that price.

Sounds like LG!

Yep. Mine has been with LG for repair for two weeks. Absurd.
I'm going to try a factory reset first, assuming I can get it to turn on again. It's been in the same loop since my last post.

Don't bother. It's a hardware issue. It'll come back eventually.
I bought a Robin temporarily. It's the same crappy 805 so it'll blow up soon, too.

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
You were, of course, correct.

Get a temporary phone while you send the 5X for repair. It's been weeks for mine and there's no end in sight. Awful.

But the 5X has the 808, like the G4...

Oops. 808 not 805. Whatever.

Weren't you using the 6P?

It's about what you prefer more than what we prefer. I say that because they are both good phones but have different pros and cons.
You will just get split recommendations on here.
Wasn't the 805 one of the best snapdragons throttling wise?

Well it has its own store that you can access with the headset off or on so probably better to make downloads before putting the headset on.

What apps do you recommend disabling?

I think the poster above nailed it a bit about downloading apps first.
It seems the big downloads can warm the Pixel up quite a bit so mixing both adds fuel to the fire.
I haven't had a warning again either but noticed the menu slow to a crawl so I got close.

only with a 3rd party launcher, the TouchWiz launcher doesn't rotate.
Think I'm going to go get a Moto G4 today. My 5X is basically already unusable. Should have gotten a 6P smh
Edit: Hmm or maybe I should get a OnePlus 3...

You finally gave up on the note 7?

Yes. I have a 6P. The 5X is another family member's phone. I just kept saying me and my
The 6P camera has always been irritating in the sense of multiple picture taking slowdown. It was bearable last year but today, knowing the Pixel doesn't have that issue, far unbearable now.

Had to RMA my Pixel C and the one they sent me has a dead pixel near the bezel -_-

technically, i gave it up a few days ago.
Thanks. Looking been doing some reading and may go for it. Other phone i was looking at was the nexbit robin but just because of the slick design.
Is the amazon prime deal with the ads worth it? I assume all i would need is an unlock code.

Allo is so much better than Hangouts for the non tech crowd. Honestly, my family and non geek friends just love using it already.
Once they add a desktop app I think a lot of Hangouts users will start migrating unless they use it for work.

If they had a desktop app, most of my family would switch tomorrow. We use it when at work, rather than bother with a phone, so until Allo has desktop support, we're certainly not moving away from Hangouts.

I ended up disabling the S7's always on display, it's useless if I can't see 3rd party full notifications and I think the battery hit is no worth just to see the time, I miss Moto screen. I'm aware the Note 7 version will arrive with Nougat, so let's wait.
edit: I also disable aroung 37 processes using EZ disabler, let's see the difference now.
