Hi Andrew,

Based on the official Samsung forum:

https://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-.../bd-p/uk-galaxy

the top 3 issues for S9/S9+ are:

1) S9 speaker phone cutting out on call
2) SD CARD ERROR ON S9+
3) Mobile HDR not enabled & Black crush

I only have problem with call drop. I don't use the SD card so I can't comment more about this. For item no. 3, I no even tested it yet. So far, tested with digi and maxis, both same problem. Means, no matter I call or receive call, call will disconnected for call within 10 minutes. Before the latest firmware update (ARCC), it drop more frequent if compare with the latest firmware update.

Some of the forumers I ask in Lowyat also have similar problem if you refer to V1 thread, but seem like no one take it seriously.

Have you consider possibility of hardware problem causing these call problems?? If it irritates you why don't you send in to check??

so this means that both sims will support 4g/3g, but only one sim will operate at 4g at a time?

e.g. when sim1 is on 4g, sim2 is on stand-by in 3g? and when i switch mobile data to sim2, 4g is activated in sim2 and sim1 is in 3g stand-by?

Correct

There could be something seriously wrong with your set. Why don't you send in service center to check. You are a rare user with such complains

I m bitching cuz its a 4k phone. If its a 1k phone, i couldnt care less.

I have been using that app since i was a Mxis user many years ago on so many phones. No issues. No battery drain.

Why is it on S9plus, it uses so much battery? For sure samsung optimization problem.

On my cheaper redmi note 5 phone , i have disconnected the same time as my s9plus with almost the same apps like maxis and waze and I was using it way more often than my s9 plus the whole day.

Guess hw much my battery is left right now. After such heavy usage i still have 49% batt left since unplugging at 930am this morning.

Plus, my S9plus was on FHD resolution the whole day. So its definately a damn battery problem or optimization problem.

Seriously have you consider sending in to service center to check. It appear you had so much problems. High chance your phone is a lemon unit. Such things do happen

I am on s9plus. Getting laggier by the day. Some times will hang in gallery. Sometimes will hang while browsing lowyat. No my phone is not lemon.pls dont tell me my phone is lemon. Typical lame excuse when other ppl phone have issues. Just now scrolling lowyat then suddenly hang and this message came out. Not the first time.

[attachmentid=10030237]

Never had such frequent hanging on my older phones. So yes, samsung is still lagdroid.

Did you ever consider sending in to check ? Your phone is definitely problematic!!

my battery life bought it march , anyone experience battery drop fast and get warranty?
*
Accubattery is inaccurate
I had compared before with Samsung phone info app and difference between them was 5%
Sadly latest phone info app doesn't show this battery health level anymore
I think only the service center can assess the battery health better. No harm trying to send in to check

fark found the culprit to those who face my slow charging problem remove greenify useless babi lol. I almost uninstall all my apps even shitty safe mode also useless. Once uninstall greenify or remove greenify from admin walah kaotim. Sien

to those who didn't not perform reset settings recommended to do so. at least now butter smooth for real. as if when scrolling like slippery sial

Since marshmallow greenify is actually unnecessary
I felt it will conflict with built in doze

What kind of BS is that ?? Just because you had a bad experience you sentence a blanket condemnation ??
Personally I had used all the S series till S8 and all note series till note9 and I had ZERO complaints on quality. Only my S6e I claimed warranty for earpiece issue and phone returned corrected within a week
