During the Note 3 days, custom kernels play a major role to SOT. I install greenify and amplify on my Note8, the best I could get is nearly 4 hours SOT. Some can even get up to 6 - 7 hours without root. I guess it all depends on how you use it. Tried phant0m kernel, didn't notice any difference. Currently using madmax kernel. Other kernels are just as good I think. It's just that some of the devs have moved to other devices.
*
Ya, it depends on the usage of the users.
I don't play games at all.

May I know if your Note 8's desktop mode still working after installing the custom rom and kernel?

If play games the SOT is down to 2.5 - 3 hours I think. I only started play games on my daily driver since early last month lol.

Never tried dex before but I believe it's working. But I got it debloated though. The only things that won't work are Samsung pay and app lock iinm.

another possible reason for battery draining is faulty SD card. i have experienced this before. i noticed my sd card will acting weird by suddenly unmounting. then the battery started draining like crazy.

removed the sd card and replaced with another one and battery become normal again

Awhile ago I was at the Service Centre in 1 Utama and I happened to ask about battery replacement for the Note 8. He said they would have to test first to see whether it was really hardware issue or something else like software and that could take a day or 2. After that if really battery issue, replacement could take a few days depending on whether they have ready stock available.

As for warranty I think he said battery would be covered for the 1 year warranty. Not sure if he meant that only the default warranty would cover and the extended warranty (if we purchase it) doesn't cover battery anymore.

Hopefully not la Bro. Note 8 is still eligible for Android P support leh. In this scenario, I have to say "If you jump, I jump" answer. God bless James Cameron, for giving us Jack Dawson.

The only reason i keep buying Samseng fons is cos of the Super Amoled.

I noticed other brand fons Amoled not very good one  seems like hi quality Amoled can only be found in Samseng fons  if not long ago i jump to PRC brand liao.

Samsung is one of the largest Super Amoled producer in the world and rest assured, they keep their best production only to be fitted into their own products.

u gotta the point, when i bought her this note 8 last year, she did not show joyfulness or thankfulness. i think she was expecting a iphone 8 plus.

see if the iphone xs max will delight her. its sad to see the note 8 being underutilize. keep saying is for business man

guys.. I use handphone + gimbal to video recording a lot.. Now, I'm thinking to switch to gopro because it's a bit smaller on my gimbal.

Assuming all settings similar, 4k30fps video on note 8 and gopro (linear view, not fisheye), which has better quality video? I wonder should I stick to phone, or buy a gopro..

Well, When I was shooting video with my Note 8 in Europe with 1080p@60fps. I do occasionally get jittering and skip frame issue. Is it because the processor is incapable?

Get the Sandisk Extreme or Extreme Pro cards, current tested WRITE speed goes up to 50Mbps via PC sdcard. It ought to be able to hit 80Mbps.

Yup, Samsung Super Amoled screens are really the best. No regrets whatsoever using them ever since the GS2 days.

I guess we have to wait patiently for the September/October firmware update to enjoy the super slow motion and AR Emoji. Nothing much can be done, until they release.

Glad to have you staying bro. Indeed, Note8 is still an eligible and capable phone.
A lot of people are really eager to try the super slow-mo and AR emoji I guess.
Super slow-mo is nice but I hardly use it. AR emoji has disappointed me. Why? Because it turned out my emoji is kinda ugly. I SWEAR ITS THE AR EMOJI PART NOT DOING WELL AND MY FACE IS NOT UGLY I TELL YOU HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

My pleasure Bro. A pact is a pact especially now that the trinity pact has been reduced to a duo pact. 😅

You might want to consider a class action suite against Samsung for making your face look so ugly with their AR Emoji. 🤣😂

u gotta the point, when i bought her this note 8 last year, she did not show joyfulness or thankfulness. i think she was expecting a iphone 8 plus.

see if the iphone xs max will delight her. its sad to see the note 8 being underutilize. keep saying is for business man
*
yeah, just buy what she likes to pleasure her. In the last few years, only left a friend still insist to use iphone. She has a thousand reasons to continue use iphone even she knows she's getting rip off by Apple.

On the other hand, if your wife forces you to use iphone, you wouldn't be happy either, right?

Read the fine print.

Usually these are READ speeds. Marketing BS.

Check WRITE speeds. Current bona fide highest speeds are the Sandisk Extreme and Extreme Pro series.

Sandisk Ultra series max write speeds go up to 25Mbsp only if you're lucky.

Yes, memory card write speed can cause video jitters.. If the memory card has high speed writing, the metal contact between the phone and the memory card also PROBABLY can degrade the speed.

To be safe, store the video into the phone's storage. Then, when you're free, transfer the video from the phone into the sdcard.

Assuming all settings similar, 4k30fps video on note 8 and gopro (linear view, not fisheye), which has better quality video? I wonder should I stick to phone, or buy a gopro..

or they OC the base clock of the cpu to match the note 9 cpu profile, hence ramping up heat management/ governor profile

Yes.

Just updated the new firmware for my note8.

Appearently the super slow mo performance doesn't on par with note 9.

Note 8 super slow mo feature is still 480fps, unlike note 9 960fps.

But u can add background music now, which is quite cool.

Hi Guys,

I notice my battery get very stable and better than before after followings the steps below:-

Second workaround: Wipe cache partition on your Galaxy Note 8.
Wiping cache partition is recommended when the device started to act weird after installing an update. The update might have caused some cached files or temporary data from within the system registry, which eventually led to massive power drain. To rule this out, wipe cache partition on your Note 8 with these steps:

Power off your device.
Press and hold the Volume Up, Home (Bixby), and Power buttons simultaneously for a few seconds.
Release all buttons when the green Android logo shows up after the Installing system update label.
Press the Volume Down key several times to scroll to and highlight wipe cache partition from the Android system recovery menu options.
Press the Power button to confirm selection.
Press the Volume Down button until Yes is highlighted then press the Power button to confirm.
Allow your phone to finishing wiping the cache partition. You will know when it’s done if the Reboot system now is highlighted.
By then, press the Power button to restart your device.

My battery seems ok a day or two after updating. Back to pretty much how it was before updating. But the warm is still there especially when I'm on data. I never had sd card though. My location always turned on, but google map location tracking/history is turned off.

Maybe the extreme sales is because of the new S10 is coming.
It is rumoured it will be unveiled at CES 2019 which is on January.
So better finish all the Note9 stocks.
Anyway I am still a Note user no matter how the phone is priced at.
Been using the Note since 3 and will never go to the other brand because of the pen.
If other brands does make a phone with pen with the same powerful features, I might consider.

Note9 i think not selling well is because there is no major update from s9+ and note8

For apple this year , alot of ip6 , ip7 plus , ip8 plus user will jump to their Xr Xs or X max


While samsung user alot i believe are waiting for the s10

I actually eyeing on the s10 but not plus version, bcoz recently i found that i need smaller screen size like the s8/ s9 , it more light weight, smaller screen easy to operate , but i scare that samsung will only put 3 camera lens on s10+ but not s10 T_T , that will be sad

Would be really nice if we can get wide lens with high mega pixel on the next Sammy flagship. Had the wide lens on my lg v20 last time but 8 mega pixel just won't cut it, kinda lack detail I think.

Note9 i think not selling well is because there is no major update from s9+ and note8

For apple this year , alot of ip6 , ip7 plus ,  ip8 plus user will jump to their Xr Xs or X max
While samsung user alot i believe are waiting for the s10

I actually eyeing on the s10 but not plus version, bcoz recently i found that i need smaller screen size like the s8/ s9 , it more light weight, smaller screen easy to operate , but i scare that samsung will only put 3 camera lens on s10+ but not s10 T_T ,  that will be sad

Hi Guys,

I notice my battery get very stable and better than before after followings the steps below:-

Second workaround: Wipe cache partition on your Galaxy Note 8.
Wiping cache partition is recommended when the device started to act weird after installing an update. The update might have caused some cached files or temporary data from within the system registry, which eventually led to massive power drain. To rule this out, wipe cache partition on your Note 8 with these steps:

Power off your device.
Press and hold the Volume Up, Home (Bixby), and Power buttons simultaneously for a few seconds.
Release all buttons when the green Android logo shows up after the Installing system update label.
Press the Volume Down key several times to scroll to and highlight wipe cache partition from the Android system recovery menu options.
Press the Power button to confirm selection.
Press the Volume Down button until Yes is highlighted then press the Power button to confirm.
Allow your phone to finishing wiping the cache partition. You will know when it’s done if the Reboot system now is highlighted.
By then, press the Power button to restart your device.

No need to have second thoughts. Just head over to the nearest service centre to get them change a new battery for you, before your phones warranty expires. All will be good after!
Yup, that is true so hopefully they will change the m/b out of goodwill. No harm if someone wishes to try their luck by asking.
Great minds, think alike! 😉
Yes, but only within the first 12 months of warranty. It is not covered in the extended warranty, which some user bought.

My case they replace mobo, battery, and USB charging board for free.
After that free of problems.
Adn the battery life on my old Note8 is also amazing after that repair.

hi, my note 8 battery macam not good, thinking to get it claim new. is there any criteria to be fullfill if want to claim a new batt?

for eg on my case, charged 100%, let the phone idling for 15 hours, batt dropped to 85 %,

is that normal? already optimized, clear cache, dump junk files.

I did the same for my miA1, it only drop to 95% FOR 15 HOURS.

something is seriously problematic with the previous battery/mobo

The new Mate 20 series look really tempting, despite the notch. Time to put more effort Sammy. Surprise us more with the next flagship, without the notch ofc.

kinda sad right now.
Today went to SC and told them I phone hot/battery drain fast. They only changed motherboard for me. I think they got check battery condition and decided not to change it. cry.gif cry.gif cry.gif

Anyway, I extended another year of warranty which costs RM140. The warranty doesn't include battery which will cost around RM300 if you wanna change it.

So it looks like there is no such thing as 100%?

Using Phone Info. Mine is still around 97% after 6 months. Sometime show 96.8 and sometime 97.3.

Hi. I have problem with tagging location in the photos. Wonder whether you people having the same problem or not.

Setting:
1. Location ON
2. Camera/Setting/Location tag ON

Photos taken will have location tag. But after doing something else and coming back to taking more photos, there will be no location tag on new photos taken.

The only way to solve this problem is, to go into camera setting and OFF-ON the location tag setting. I have even done Factory reset but issue remains.

Yes working.

I now get it to work after clearing the Camera app's cache. But there is a time delay.

After opening the camera app to take photos, I have to wait may be 5 or 10 seconds before taking photos with location tag.

BTW, the location setting is ON all the time.

Depends on several factors.

Is your phone near to the wifi router? I get about slightly less than 0.5% per hours.

Is your mobile data signal strong?

I disallow many apps access to location data manually. Setting/apps/permission.

use samsung members app to test all sensors. If hardware no problem, then try to wipe cache partition (it doesn't delete your data)

GPS navigation works fine. Just that with taking photo, need to wait a few second to acquire gps info. Even though location is constantly on.

u test with Samsung Member?
Btw , search "Locating Method" in system settings. It set to high accuracy by default which means it also use WIFI and mobile data to detect your location. Try to change to Battery Saving mode and see if the phone still can detect your location.

Used Samsung member. Checked sensors. pass
Location setting at High Accuracy
Camera setting, location ON
Camera app. working. location set to ON

Open camera app. IMMEDIATELY take photo, photo have no location tag.

Open camera app, have to wait quite a few second and then take photo, only then do photo have location tag.

Why the need to wait if location setting is ON all the time? Do you also have to wait?

just tested with location ON. Open camera app, immediately take photo and see the photo details. It does show location tag immediately.

I told you to change high accuracy for Battery saving mode and test your gps app, have you try that yet?
and also wipe cache partition. Just do it.

Done all that.

App cache cleared. Factory reset also done.

Location on High Accuracy. Wait about 5 seconds

Location on Battery save. A tiny bit faster at 3+ seconds. As expected, location tag is less accurate.

Of course I am only referring to the 1st photo. After that 1st photo with tag, subsequent photo will have tag. What i do is, I will close the camera app after the 1st photo with tag. Then walk to a different location, I reopen the camera app and will have to wait a couple of seconds again. It's just not immediate

I just told them my battery drains fast. They will ask if it gets warm, but it won't matter as I said no.

They will check for screen defects and if you have screen discoloration or burn in, it will be replaced.

Backup data first, they will reformat the phone.

And this is only applicable within the 1st year warranty? AFAIK, extended warranty does not cover battery replacement.

1. Opening Google maps etc, the GPS location is fast and accurate.
2. Navigation wise, no problem

So the GPS chip looks like working fine.

The ONLY problem is, I need to wait a couple of seconds before the photos taken have location tag.

May you can try again at different location. Does your really work immediately at different location on first opening the camera apps?

Have thought of trying other camera app. Got any recommendation?

if it is just 240 to get a new battery then i am not bother to change it even it is free under warranty
because most likely i will need to get a new screen protector for my phone that will cost another 80 or more

I won't be replacing the battery too. Wait for s10 or some other better phone in near future then sell of my note 8. I suspect Samsung deliberately make the battery drain worse through firmware upgrade. Lol

Samsung SC always erase all data and update to the latest version after repair/replacement before they conduct testing.

While Samsung calls it extended warranty, battery and screen are only covered within 1st year of purchase.


Samsung warranty policy is very confusing and strange. Does it apply only to Samsung or other android brands too?

its suppose to be that way. If clear all data and update still have problem means its samsung problem.

If they dont do that we never know what you did previously causing it to slow down.

I notice after the last update my phone become slower now and laggy. That why i hate updating my phones

Already reset to default apps setting and clear cache. It is still the same. As what you say it is good in standby but suck all the juice when use it. The brightness detection is big suck with lesser sensitivity to light. It always set to slightly brighter than before the firmware upgrade.

Hi guys, just exactly 1 year and 1 week from my previous service, my phone charging port end up in smoke last night while charging halfway.

Send to samsung service center this morning, and I was told that my "type C to micro USB" adapter is a fake adapter, but this adapter is taken right out of note 8 box and I have never bought any of this type adapter before.

The reason they gave me and say is fake, is because behind my adapter there is this "CE" logo and they show me theirs is without, but physically wise every details is exactly the same.

So for anyone here who bought note 8 last year on first batch, may I know if your adapter is similar as mine?

found this issue that when screen on, all cores are online and utility is about 70-90%, that's why our phone heats up on screen on and drains since last update

Hi guys, just exactly 1 year and 1 week from my previous service, my phone charging port end up in smoke last night while charging halfway. 

Send to samsung service center this morning, and I was told that my "type C to micro USB" adapter is a fake adapter, but this adapter is taken right out of note 8 box and I have never bought any of this type adapter before.

The reason they gave me and say is fake, is because behind my adapter there is this "CE" logo and they show me theirs is without, but physically wise every details is exactly the same.

So for anyone here who bought note 8 last year on first batch, may I know if your adapter is similar as mine?

You can buy online through Lazada or go to Samsung shops..
Did you find out why it stopped working? Try changing the nib or something..
Mine was over sensitive past few days and it was because it entered water.. let it out to dry under hot sun for a day and it's back to normal..

I notice the phone's performance is slower after the latest update. Anyone noticing this? Apps tend to response slower. Slight lag.

Performance wise I have no issue except high battery drain when using it. Standby wise is good with minimum battery drain.

Interesting is that how much Samsung to seal your phone. If cheap at Rm100 or Rm150 then you really save a lot and get back IP68 rating.

wow nice.
The reason Samsung could fix anything under 2 hours is because they just replace the whole part. They just need to train their staff to replace the motherboard. Diagnose and repair takes requires a lot of expertise and time consuming which they don't have. Luckily we can find literally anything on ebay.

no, battery warranty just 1 year and the extended warraty doesn't cover battery warranty. Last month I tried to change battery but they changed my motherboard instead. Actually -13% isn't that bad. You have to pay around RM300 for battery replacement.

96 to 97% after 8 months.

So I would say 87% after one year is bad.

The latest Nov update increase power consumption. For standby, it consume double from 0.5% to more than 1% per hour

Performance wise, see improvement.

Anyone got "burned in" images on their LCD?

Mine apparently got due to the brightness too bright. Probably is when I was using auto adjustment and I went outdoor.

Now my btm keys and top notification bar area there is a different tone of color

Was getting worst battery. Since then getting better after:

1. Disable Google Play Body Sensor which I have never used.
2. Screen resolution
3. Bixby. Taking about 20+% of battery. Never use that anyway.
4. Gear VR Service. Can't fully disable, only partially. Battery consumption went from 20% to single digit.

This is my guesses. Probably after update, some setting went to default. Example may be, higher than your previous set screen resolution. Or Google Play Service Body Sensor "ON" while it may be "OFF" previously. Or previously you "OFF" Bixby and now it's "ON".

I notice, Bixby Global Action uses 20+% of my battery. And Gear VR Services another 20+.

Don't think you can entirely off Goolge Play Service because it's used for many things. Some p;eople described having the Body Sensor off invcrease battery life and since I don't have any android wearable, I off thenm. I did other settings and I have significantly imporved battery life

Daily joke:
Samsung say the previous firmware not draining battery enough. This time round wil drain more battery and also make your phone lag. Then you will feel your phone is old. Old phone means need to upgrade. What phone to upgrade? Samsung has latest model Note 9.....

Is it worth it to buy the Note 8 now? The price has dropped I think...

Is the battery life really problematic for Note 8?



Thanks for feedback.

Not problematic at all since the fast charging really come in handy, 30 minutes charge while taking shower & get ready can get you more than enough thumbup.gif no more night charging for me compared to previous Note 4 thumbsup.gif
