Is that battery or cpu temp. Even for either that's awfully low. Don't see any issue.

just wifi connection.

using Phone Temperature by Trila Droid. most probably is battery heat

You can check using apps like Aida 64 to see all your thermal sensors. 37 is normal for battery and low for cpu. Like someone mentioned if your phone signal is weak it can heat up your phone. Also is your screen hot?

I face 3 times already this 'hang' problem. U need to do hard reset (power + volume down button). As i know this 'problem' is protection system for Samsung phone for the mobo, protect from overheat n damage ur phone. There is some combination hard reset n some combination will reset ur phone to factory default  bye.gif . Lucky i google first before doing hard reset.. sweat.gif

EDIT : Found the link HERE

Volume down and power is soft reset. Not hard reset. Don't confuse.

Any chance you using Chrome? And your button combo is incorrect. That's for taking screenshot.

Thanks for your reply.
Yes, using Chrome. Thanks, my combo were wrong, now I know it is volume down + power button biggrin.gif
Yeah and thanks, I can't accept it to hang by just normal browsing with just 2 tabs in Chrome. unsure.gif
*
It seems a few user having your similar issue while using Chrome as well. Would advice to use other browsers in the meantime. Maybe u can try chrome beta if u still need to use chrome.

To be honest I haven't come across any issue with sms on this forum or on xda. I am also using maxis and didn't have any issue. Don't need to setup anything it just works immediately. Have u tried calling maxis to check if there is any issue with your account.

Looks like S7 Edge has the best heat dissipation among last year flagships and its little brother.

This I agree. Compared to my previous phones, s7 stays very very cool even doing the same task I usually do with my phones.

QUOTE(Leo the Lion @ Apr 3 2016, 03:17 PM)
Finally decided to buy S7 Edge.

SOT is low... not as what i expected.

Average use such as fb, light gaming COC, browsing the web, whatsapp, telegram, email....

Thoughr I could get SOT 6hours or 7
*
What is your usage on? Well battery life differs for users. I usually gets about 7hrs sot on my usage.

I really don't understand, how you all manage to make a well made phone hang or crash? Mine happened restart it itself and can't power on because I put it in a box with a case. It was too tight, and the box press the case power button and volume place and the phone keep turn and on itself till I open the box again after couple hours. The phone then self restart again then can't power on for 1 minutes. I Google it, found out that Samsung made this to protect the motherboard. I guess the phone resort too many time and when I take it out it was very very very hot. My bad. But till now I didn't even face any hang/crash. Maybe it is because of the not well optimise app cause that problem.  Keep your eye open and alert on those crappy app. Especially those China made app.
*
Totally agree on this. Nothing much to say on this matter and I am just enjoying my phone without any issues tongue.gif My last run was more than 12 days before I did a restart.

I can't unlock the screen via edge with my finger print,I tried several times still can't need to enter backup pin number.
*
It does work. Once you activate the edge screen the device is awake and u can straight away scan your fingerprint. But yeah it is not really convenient. Better to just press home button n scan.

Guys, whats the highest power consumption portion of ur phone. Mine's the screen which sucks up 40% on average. Its kinda weird isnt it? Since im always doing something like browse chrome in 4G, games etc.
*
Either my screen or my game (7knights). Screen by right should take up most of the battery so its normal. Everything u do uses the screen.

I feel weird cos my previous phones were always something else that sucks the most power.

First time on amoled here but shouldnt it use less power? Also switched to basic mode along with using dark wallpaper etc.
*
Well look at it this way, unless you are having issues getting enough sot or battery life to last you through the day, don't go worry too much which process is on top. tongue.gif

But from my previous experience, the screen should use more battery compared to cpu. You are not always on the highest cpu speed. Most application don't need high cpu speed unless its resource required game.

I've been getting issues on my mobile data switching off every now and then, and only a restart could fix it. what's going on? is it a sim problem ?
*
Is it switching on and off even when the screen is on? Have you tried calling your telco see if there is any issue at your current location. Or try another sim card. Is your sim card a genuine nano sim or one of those "potong" one. tongue.gif

I got the device from zero lution and my new number, so it's a new sim card all in all sad.gif my data switched off, even my radio, so cannot call.. it just says unknown number and emergency call.. restart works, airplane mode also works to fix this issue but it gets annoying D:
*
Sounds like hardware issue. Either the sim card or the sim slot is losing contact with the pins. Easy way is to try another confirmed working nano sim to check if its the sim card problem. If not u may have to visit samsung service. or rage at maxis for a new unit since u just got it.

There's a way to automate that.

I configured Tasker to mute the phone when the camera app is launched.

I know me too. Been using this method since before they found the CSC code for it.

I just disabled those identify as bloatwares. TBH I don't feel any difference in battery saving.

If the service or app is originally not running of cos there won't be any additional battery savings. Easy way is just disable system app u know u won't use and then look at your ram to see what other app or services that is currently running that u won't need.
