Why my s8+ can not use china /hk simcard. Its said network locked simcard inserted
*
You have to insert your SEA simcard @ Malaysian sim card and activate the phone first. Or you can insert Hk/China sim card as second sim.

Seems Samsung as Huawei is also involved in "cheating" consumers about its ufs type storage
I checked mine and is ufs 2.1

Do u play the phone while on the wireless charging pad? The number barely go up.
*
I use the charging pad more like a stand for my phone without charging because charging is too slow.

Good morning,

Overnight drain more than 20%... My ex Mate 9 only 3%.

Repeat again. Same apps same setup. Haha.
*
Yes, but overnight drain of more than 20% in on the high side. Suggest you perform a soft reset. Whats the app thats draining out your battery?

I think that is the red tint fix update. I'm not sure if I should update. My s8 got no red tint issue.
*
There is no fix for the red tint through software. Red tint is caused by hardware.

Uninstall Facebook and messenger would help a lot. That's the only two I wouldn't install back in any android phone. One wouldn't believe how much it takes the toll on the battery despite what was reflected in the battery status details.

Edit:

I'm lying... I just did for my wife S8+. However there's no Fb nor messenger on my phone. Therefore I really noticed how much better the battery consumption was after I removed both from my S6e.
*
No issue for me though. I dont connect my messenger. My main gripe on battery drain would be android playstore and android itself.

Anyone having problem slotting in their microsd card to the tray? Mine's cant fit in perfectly sad.gif

There's a slight lift towards the nano sim side and I dont dare to push into the phone
*
U need to lay your hybrid sim tray flat on the table and then press sd card in with a bit of pressure until you hear the click sound and the micro sd going in. If inserted corrected, the sd card will be flat when inserted into the tray. Inserting the tray back to the phone without properly securing the sd card tray may jam it.

Quite reasoanable considering 15 hours standby time. Battery usage depends heavily on how you use your phone.

QUOTE(sizune @ May 8 2017, 10:50 AM)
Is the warranty transferable?
*
No you cant transfer but Samsung will still honour the warranty.

Anyone have this option in your phone settings?

This is automatically activated once u plug in using a fast charger supplied by Samsung. The fast charging is displayed once a fast charger is plugged in.

Hey guys, got 1 question here,

USB type c only got 1 type right? Because I'm use my huawei type c cable, very tight on s8 (but smooth on huawei)

Then my another third party type c cable, more tight and slow charging.
*
Usb type c is proprietary if Android. So yes, all usb type c cables are the same. I do use a type c adapter on my old cables though.
