Man I need to sell my pixel. Everytime I go back to it the lack of smoothness on the s8 is even more notable lol.
Is it janky even with Nova?

Literally the only reason I got it was because I needed a phone that supported wifi calling on at&t.Maybe you should just return the S8 and wait for the Pixel2/Note8.
the way that protector started burning had me howling. ridiculousLol zagg responded to Zach calling out their bullshit sapphire screen protector.

$50 for a plastic screen protector with some flakes of sapphire and glass lol.

The red tint seems to be a lottery along with storage on the S8 and not the lkus (UFS 2.0 or 2.1). Fortunately, no red tint on this s8+.
The top edge of the screen on a store model I looked at had a red tint. Kinda like a red line on the top whenever something white was on the screen.Got a S8+ to play around with at home. Edges have red tint to them. This would be so much better without the curved edge display. Screen is beautiful though and the camera is legit. Bloat doesn't seem as bad on this phone.
-edit- lol every time I reboot phone it resets screen brightness
I doubt it. 2.0 should still be pretty fast. I think it's more a case of perception.I honestly wonder if some of these smoothness complaints are related to the UFS 2.0/2.1 situation.
That's exactly what I've been pointing out this whole time!The top edge of the screen on a store model I looked at had a red tint. Kinda like a red line on the top whenever something white was on the screen.

If not there, then any time it's white on dark. It's why I could not consider the S8, since that would have gotten annoying quickly.

One plus dude is teasing the op5 lol. Hard to tell much with the "camo" case but it does seem like dual camera is confirmed.
Blame the camo case. Those are designed to make it hard to judge the phone, like camo paint on prototype cars.Those are some massive cameras on the back :S
got my first proper scratch along the sides of my Pixel yesterday first proper damage to it and of course the first time I try to use it without a damn case hate being locked into a 2 year contract cause i've already been wanting to try out something new.
Have had a exynos dual sim s8 for a couple of days and this phone is super awesome. Never stuttered never lagged, 6 hours SoT.
It's my first samsung phone, always had google nexus phones in the past.
With package disabler pro and adhell(pay for neogaf gold), I dont even need root anymore. Turned off bixby and a couple of apps that came with the phone with and it's smooth sailing. Way higher build quality than any nexus phone I've had.
Used it for 6 hours straight the first day and it ran super cool. The nexus 6p would be burning into my skin in 20 mins.
Anyone have a list of things that are safe to turn off with package diabler pro? I'd like to run as lean as possible.
Still think the lenovo p2 is the best buy for that price point.For anyone in the UK, Honor 8 finally available at a good price. £200.

My Axon 7 has randomly rebooted while locked in my pocket three times since I bought it. Any ideas?
I really dig this thing, shame I probably got a lemon.
Finally flashed Nougat to my Nexus 4 (7.1.2).
5.1.1 was getting really unstable so let's see how well this works. So far so good, really smooth, but it was in dire need of a fresh install. Got a rom with night light which works really well.
when did you buy it?
feels like every android phone i have the past year has rebooted occasionally lol. Pixel is the most frequent!
Wow. Just how hard is that? I have an old N4 still around and its stuck on 5.x I think. Whatever the last official google build was.
It's not hard at all. All you need to do is unlock the bootloader (which is very easy on a Nexus), flash custom recovery (usually TWRP) and then flash your ROM of choice, as well as Google Apps.
Not that hard. The Nexus root toolkit kinda borked because I was low on space and gapps thought it was on 5.1Wow. Just how hard is that? I have an old N4 still around and its stuck on 5.x I think. Whatever the last official google build was.
I love how floss always says scale of 1-10, but he never gives a number. Lol
I should watch more of his stuff. From what I can tell, it would make good background noise while doing other things.
Update to the latest. Fresh format. If those don't solve your issue than... WelpLast week It's secondhand. Think the owner said they had it for a couple months.
I just updated MiFavor, fingers crossed that it fixed it. I had my Nexus 5x for about a year and don't remember it ever rebooting.
Why not use the features that come free with the phone like Samsung pay and Bixby?
Anyone know how to set games to run a lower resolution than normal screen res on the s8? I can't find that option in game launcher.

I do use samsung pay which is nice and one of the reasons I bought the phone. I've just turned off bixby and google assistant because I really don't care for them.
Any recommendations for a good and cheap bluetooth headset?? It would be nice to listen to some music or podcasts during gym session.
Still think the lenovo p2 is the best buy for that price point.
You want ear buds right? Not cans?
I use these in the gym.Yep, earbuds. They don't have to be the best, just of good quality and durable.

those are pretty good.https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B017KE9KOU/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1494246365&sr=8-3&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=samsung+bluetooth&dpPl=1&dpID=31z4IRPmd6L&ref=plSrch
Samsung ones are like over half off. I'm not saying they are gonna be beats or jaybirds, but they are under $50.

These are generally better for gym use over the neck ones, which aren't great for active stuff. They flop around when running or doing bench stuff.I'm from Germany and it's not being discounted here.
I think I'm going for the Mpow earbuds. Thanks for the suggestions.
