QUOTE(ak47d @ Jun 20 2018, 02:37 PM) IMO wireless charging is too slow and and what's worse, it heats up the battery up to 40C easily ..I'd recommend spending on QC power bank instead. Speaking from experience.. any of power bank would you recommend?i was using romoss sense 4 but the battery is already almost EOL.. |

QUOTE(xcxa23 @ Jun 27 2018, 08:52 AM) Looks normal to me but gotta agree samsung standy sucks.. AOD really eats battery.Try off AOD, sync also turn off allow activity/data on background for unwanted apps.. I turn off for Facebook, messenger, samsung apps. Helps a bit.. from 12% to 10% overnight with AOD SOT damn impressive. Getting average 5 to 6 min/%1battery drop With wqhd, auto brightness with lux and 2 bar lte Side note, samsung keyboard nice.. swipe to move cursor rocks.. haha i can see the difference in battery usage between turning on and off. how do you turn off the FB/messenger/samsung apps? |

QUOTE(hirota @ Jul 13 2018, 07:03 PM) yes I have the same problem.... When it happened I turn on the loudspeaker then turn it off immediately QUOTE(azforce @ Jul 13 2018, 09:53 PM) I have factory reset my phone. So far the problem not coming yet. Hope this factory reset solve the problem. Will monitor this few days QUOTE(azforce @ Jul 13 2018, 09:57 PM) Could be a bug. Instead of resetting, why don't you try and reflash the firmware. |

QUOTE(Magnum7997 @ Jul 22 2018, 11:20 PM) Hey, I recently got an S9+ and I seem to be receiving a problem where file transfer via USB plug kept disconnecting and reconnecting, making large file transfers basically impossible to do. You tried different ports or different computers to confirm that this is rhe cable/phone's problem?Does anyone have a similar issue in the past and manage to resolve it? If so, try uninstalling the driver, restart your pc and phone, and try again. If still persists, try different port and computer, if still happen, try a different cable if available. If all else fails, try resetting the phone. If still happen, then surely this is hardware fault. |

QUOTE(Arvinaaaaa @ Jul 30 2018, 01:10 PM) guys, yesterday i just got a s9+ and its been great so far..but i noticed the boxby and the volume buttons are not a "clicky" as the on/off button.. is this normal? This is not normal, discussed a few pages back. Should've checked this before leaving the store,as they can replace on the spot. Now you may have to go to SC..thank you |

QUOTE(SpringBiscuit @ Aug 13 2018, 03:46 PM) Hi guys, should i go for Note 9 since it just release? Was initially going to get S9+ in Senheng, 3 years warranty with around 300+ cheaper then Note9. if your have the budget, go ahead with Note 9.Is S9+ still a comparable with Note9? as Note has bigger battery. battery 4000mAh, starting capacity is 128GB, bluetooth s-pen the camera is indeed taken from S9, but improved with AI.
