Hi, powerangah, in your header you put S8+ wrongly as RM 2699 instead of RM 3699

I left the phone from 1130pm last night on the wireless pad with ori cable & plug. On the screen written 'wireless fast charging. Time to full 1 hr plus'.

This morning woke, saw the phone still charging at 84% but no fast charging & time to full written. Only something like 'charging'. Anybody else had same proble?
*
I also left over night, it do charge 100% to me but it won't cut off, it keep charging and charging because the phone is slightly warmer.

So conclusion is I won't put the phone at wireless charger over night anymore.

Hi, powerangah probably you may consider change the owner list quantities and label it as owner only instead of pre-order owner. Another suggestion, instead of fill-in yourself, you may consider do auto fill-in form by using Google Doc.

Here the summary for the moment. smile.gif

S8+ Total owners = 37
Midnight Black owners = 23
Orchid Grey = 11
Maple Gold =3

S8 Total owners = 21
Midnight Black owners = 14
Orchid Grey = 6
Maple Gold = 0
Unknown = 1

Also, under Q&A, Roadshow Venue is at following location:
  • Klang Valley, Sunway Pyramid
  • Penang, Queensbay Mall
  • Johor Bahru, Sutura Mall

I like to use my phone while  charging but I notice the % is going down instead of up.

Charging phone shall not using it. It is very dangerous, for safety reason the percentage going down is a right choice did by Samsung.

Saw someone commented wireless charging wont turn green etc.
It means your wireless charger might be fake stuff.

If you mean the color light on the charger itself then it do turn green but it didn't turn off the charging.

The nav bar has some light color overlay on it, hence the stripe look as in it was OLED burn in. If you test on a white background then there's no stripe it means it still is fine.

I not sure that photo from where, that photo actually do show the burn-in button of home and recent.

Just the person draw that red indicator is kind of dumb, it is like pointing to the line showing the navigation bar color but in actual is point to that two burn-in icon.

I don't believe in actual normal usage will burn-in those icon, it is high possible the person purposely turn on the screen forever not sleep and let it be there.

You are right. For that home screen burn in, it could be faked (highly likely) or like you said, it has been put on for a really long time on purpose.
*
Yaya. If it is so easier to burn-in, then it shall have the home button only not the recent button as during standby only home button is light up.

Actually burn in is quite among in amoled, my Nexus 6 has it after 2 years of usage. But it's not really a big deal for me.

After 2 years is make sense, but few days or a month is not make sense. This is like purpose torture to make it burn-in.

Im still having a hard time using the fingerprint sensor on this phone. Not only it is so placed to to the top, it is also so slim.

Had more sucess in using my redmi note 4 that this lol.

place the phone face down.

when you pick it up, auto read finger print and screen unlock.

Very common, it is like that long ago (since have android), not only Samsung, a lot brand may have some widget is missing in custom launcher.

It is due to it is not compatible, need stock framework.
