Dear SME,

Please do your part.

Nougat 7.1 Dev Released

Yours truly,
Note5-"note"-exploding User.

p/s: Please make the above as our new years gift...If not happening, we will explode!!!

In another note...

Dear XDA Chef,
Please port the N7.1 into N9208 Duos for our testing. Tq.

Don't think Samsung will release 7.1 for Note 5 that soon. I still remember Marshmallow was released quite late...April or June? hmm.gif

The only way to get that is by flashing the rom ourselves cry.gif

Be very strategic....

Don't totally port in ur number to webe. There is still lots of issues outstanding in webe service like:

1) Bank TAC code delayed or not received at all. This issue is very subjective. I was having this issue but after escalated to webe support ( which is the worst of all telcos so far....), the bank TAC is resolved after 7 days!!!!!

2) OTT code like iPhone FaceTime or Whatsapp activation delayed or never received. This is claimed by some webe users.

3) etc...etc...etc...

Head over to webe thread to "learn" more...

That's why now webe is running special promo until 31st December 2016...

You just pay RM79 monthly (UNTIL 31st December only yaaaaaa) to fully test kaw-kaw webe performance...if not happy, port out back to ur current telco.

The best strategy is to get brand new webe number prefix +6011 to fully test kaw-kaw webe service....in less than 2 months, you'll either love it or hate it in total...LOL...

But me think you guys will terminate webe line in 2 weeks time...LOL...

LOL from all these issues mentioned, then I will stay away from Webe first...let it stable then only jump ship haha. Don't need 2 phone numbers XD

New sim card and a fresh restore later, i still could not log on to a 4G network, i am stuck in H+/H . 3G is working perfect with some minor hiccup during upload once in a while.

A friend's note 5 can log on to the 4G network using my sim card without problem.....The missus iPhone has no problem with my sim card as well.

Went to the samsung service center of my neighborhood, they notice i had done everything after a tinker with my phone. Straightaway suggest i need to replace my motherboard and it is going to cost me RM 1,300.00 and +- 7 days of waiting time for parts.

One guy pull me to the side when i am leaving and suggest me to trade in the phone at a phone shop of my choice to a brand new note 5. The repair is not worth it for what you are paying might as well get a new note 5 with fresh warranty if i die die want the same phone.

Looks like i have to rock my Note 5 without 4G until i cant even get 3G.

You guys who still have valid warranty, i suggest purchase the one year add on to counter this problem.

Warranty covers motherboard repair? My friend mia phone motherboard a bit problem, ask to repair at service center and under warranty but they say warranty no cover, need to fork out 1k. Now he bought a new phone already.

About 200-300. I dropped my phone few months back and broke front and back glass. Ended up repairing for 900 bucks for both front and rear.

Wa didn't notice my good ol note 5 is already 2 years old. It's still doing fine. Not much lag or problem. Just that the battery is getting weaker..can't last a day anymore. Need to charge 2 or 3 times a day. Maybe need to go change battery..

Nougat is here! Wow nice UI!

Btw guys, is there any good non-root package disabler? I saw there's 2 in the app store, both at the same price but different developer and different app name.

Additionally is there any non-root scheduler? Like at 5pm auto turn on wifi and so on? I used to have an app to do that but it's for rooted device.

Yea I was left with 2.5Gb storage space...after update suddenly got 6.4Gb. I guess the system uses less storage space.

Memory management is better, battery life feels the same. Smoothness also feels the same.

How is it going? Does reflashing solve the problem?

Nope..now trying to do a factory wipe. If it still doesn't work then gotta flash back to Marshmallow.

Does anyone has the latest Marshamallow tar file to flash? Other sites are very slow.

Factory reset and data wipe does not work too. Now looking for Marshmallow firmware and see how it goes.

Strange some of you having waze issues on Nougat.
I tested mine on Maxis, Celcom, Digi n Webe - all work perfectly well. I don't think is related to telco.

Very specific case. My sis using same Umobile as me has no issue with her GPS at all after updating to Nougat.

Anyone has Marshmallow N9208XXS3BQA6?

Shit, somehow I couldn't flash to Marshmallow from Nougat and I got a soft brick. Need to use smart switch to recover it back but I don't have the serial number with me now. I left my box in KL but I am back in hometown...

Ya, I just remember same thing happened to a lot of ppl last year. Once the bootloader is upgraded to MM, there's no way to revert it back to LP.

QUOTE(Luffy1234 @ Apr 23 2017, 06:10 PM)
I went from Nougat to Marshmallow the other day no problem. Make sure you factory reset in settings, then you hard reset.

How do you do a hard reset?
