Hi there, may I know how to go about it as noob on this VPN thingy.
I'm using this to put the less used apps to sleep as well and some reported this is better than Greenify but still having issues with Mudah, Lazada or Qoo10 where they are popping up with messages, does any one know y. Shouldn't they be sleeping till we open the app or anything like that.

By the way guys any advise on Bk Disabler or Package Disabler, are they the same. Would this put the less used app to sleep till we open them.

Another issue I'm having with my phone is the Notifications tone get's truncated randomly. Anyone else with such issue?
*
just turn off notification for those app or block them to send notification
i have notification truncated randomly also for whatsapp and wechat, no idea why

It's a common thing, even dslr also like that, mostly reflection reasons.
*
my old s3 and canon 6d also don't have so serious reflection
note 8 is "over" reflect already

i tried, for the light sources that causing the light dots, as long as the light source is inside the frame of the camera, no matter how you move the camera, all the light dots are remain in the camera view

for the below photo, no matter how i moved up, down, right and left, these number of dots are remain in the photo

Even spigen this round also avoid to come out with Tempered glass for Note 8 , lol ...
I think my iphone SE also has this light reflection issue when i point some angle.
It just the glass reflection between the light and actual camera lens i believe?
*
i understand that this is unavoidable but note 8 is just too serious compared all the other cameras

Have you check the inside lens cover maybe got dust . Maybe you need send in service centre ask those tech to clean from inside.

it is clean from inside too
dust normally cause a black dot cos it cover the light
but the dot that i get, is light dot

that looks more like the dust inside your lens rather than anything else. And the way you say it, seems so
*
all are like light dots than dust
if dust, it look black and it will always appear in the photo instead of just under special shooting conditions
plus not all the time have the same number of dots, this photos have a lot
some times it is just 1 or 2 dots
if shooting videos, the light dots feel like alive, it is running everywhere

Bro, this photo taken with yr 6D camera or phone?
Looks like sensor dust, if dust attached on lens, u wont actually see it in ur photo, because the dust will out focus.

The spot in ur photo is quite sharp, hence high chance is dust stick on ur sensor.
If so, easy, just send to camera shop for sensor cleaning.

below pictures are screen shoot from a video that i took during walking
the dots are flying around, some times i can see few light dots
these are more obvious that the light dots are reflected from the street light as the color is the same

I am currently using the cable supplied with the phone to charge my phone via a usb pc connector (usb 1.0/2.0). Currently on 65%, and it needs 2h 12m to be charged till 100%. Is it that slow?
*
to enable fast charge, you need both the charger (or the power source device) and cable support fast charge
if only one of it support, then the fast charge will not work
to know that is it currently fast charge enable, check the info in the notification bar
it will be stated fast charge if it is enabled

My S Pen translate doesn't convert currency. Anyone figured out how it works? Apparently you use translate function then it'll convert price when you hover, but it only shows the translation for me.

Haven't tested other currencies, the one I checked was JPY.

Edit: just tried Australian dollar, it converts to GBP... any idea how to change to MYR?

its not question original or not...issue here seems to be its an open box, repack and sell again. some issue, they buy note 8 for testing and then within few days sell back again repack like new.

the only solution that i can think of, is to call SME to verify the warranty registered details
