I only manage to get 3 hours+. That is not much better than my Note 3.

BT, NFC, GPS, Rotation disabled
Thanks, do update us about the waterproofing. I afraid that our waterproof seal will be affected even for warranty repair.

Try gps enabled. It's unbelievable what gpsd could do when you disable gps.

Anyone here using Samsung S-View Original Flip Cover. I'm thinking of getting this instead of the original Samsung Clear View Flip Cover. Hope to hear some comment on this. smile.gif
*
If you were to get the Clear View case, always make sure you have a screen protector first. There's various cases of the hard plastic flip scratching the screen for previous Clear View cases (for S6 Edge, Note 5, etc.)

Anyhow, the Clear View is indeed way more beautiful than the S-View cover. The S-View actually spoils the look of the S7 edge, to be honest.

I guess it is pure luck. laugh.gif
Tried that. No difference.
I hope Samsung is able to provide a 1 to 1 exchange like Apple.

I believe if the seals are replaced properly, waterproofing will be retained. It depends on the competency of the technician I guess. smile.gif

If they reassemble it the same way they took it apart, I'm sure the waterproofing would still be there right?
Provided they use the proper seal

I think without proper tools its hard for them to have waterproofing again. If you watch jerryrigit, you wills ee their waterproofing mostly based on some sort of rubber or glue to seal it. Which I believe its not that easy without proper equipment and tools.
Yeah will do  biggrin.gif estimate next week should arrive

Correct based on jerry and other tear it down vids. the phone's water proofing it just being glued together on the front and back to the chasis. theres no seal or nothing on the glasses. (only the ports) Sad but true.

customer service from 2 separate centre told me that the waterproofing warranty will be gone. Means they cannot guarantee that the phone is still IP68 complied. since the phone is disassembled. Learnt few things today

1. Hardware warranty all will still be carried on according to the warranty period
2. If the screen does happen to crack or shatter again, (warranty for everything will be voided)
3. After screen replacement, IF YOU wet your phone and water sips through. Samsung DOES NOT cover the warranty.

Thanks for finding out more about this.

Since you mentioned "3. After screen replacement, IF YOU wet your phone and water sips through. Samsung DOES NOT cover the warranty.", so does this mean that Samsung WILL cover the warranty for wet / water-seap damage for S7 edge units which have not been repaired before? hmm.gif hmm.gif hmm.gif

should be it. since if water seeps through with all the (ports sealed nicely. it should be waterproofed.) if water does seeps through, it would be some manufacturing defects. like my Xperia Z. yes.... first day itself. masuk air. LOL 1 to 1 exchange

In this regard, Samsung should actually do both the rubber glue / seals and fully nano-coat the internal electronics such as Liquipel or using Motorola's proprietary nano-coating to make the electronics water-resistant.

But then again, nano-coats alone cannot really provide full IP68 performance (IIANM) and they may have their own shortcoming too (e.g. heat dissipation may no longer be good).

That's good to know. rclxms.gif

Another thing to ponder. If someone submerges their S7 edge inside water beyond the specified depth-limit and for longer than 30 minutes, and water does go into the S7 edge, will Samsung still cover the warranty? I'm not sure if Samsung can detect such 'misuses'. hmm.gif

Sony probably learnt their lesson on this too and that's why they are no longer mentioning that their phones are waterproof.

Since Sony waterproof with glue, probably they can't honor the warranty anymore.

But I do find it weird that Samsung can't honor them as well. Why?

Personally I replaced my S6e screen before and one of the item that was charged into the billing was a repair kit. According to the service advisor, it's those tapes that glued the back glass to the unibody chassis. If they clean it up properly, then reapply a new layer of the tape on the S7e chassis, theoretically they should be waterproof it. I don't think there will be different from manufacturing except this time it will be done by hand instead of robot.

you can disable one by one without any app right? or this disabler pro do anything extra (aside from batch disabling)?
