optimummind Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Flashed my phone to the Nougat 935U ROM and it's great! So nice not having so much bloatware. Sent from my SM-G935U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanK_ Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 What's up with the pink line issue? What is Samsung doing for that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jreuschl Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 What's up with the pink line issue? What is Samsung doing for that? It is a hardware issue, apparently with the cable/plug it goes into for the LCD. Only affects the S7 Edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanK_ Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 It is a hardware issue, apparently with the cable/plug it goes into for the LCD. Only affects the S7 Edge. Are they fixing it if the phone is over a year old aka for free? Asking for a friend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twospirits Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 I'll check today to see if it drains, I had the phone off yesterday after the update since I was in the movie theater doing the Guardians of the Galaxy double feature and then went straight home to bed. If it doesn't solve it I just might install the lite apps mentioned in this article, since most of them are the ones that drain more battery juice.

jreuschl Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Maybe the new update includes a battery drain feature to help you to upgrade to the S8 I'm going to try Facebook Lite again. Why does Facebook need two installer/update apps in addition to Facebook+Messenger?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanna know why the Facebook app never stays in memory anymore and constantly has to reload, soon as I upgraded to nougat I noticed it.
