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?

What do I lose when I perform wipe cache?

nothing lose, it's just a cache. You should backup your data in case you delete wrong stuff.

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.

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.

does your GPS work?

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.

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

really idea what caused this. Try 3rd party camera app? If the problem still persists, just go to Samsung Centre.
