DemonMage posted:What do you guys use it for besides texting, or is that the key feature? I only use Hangouts really, so I have Pushbullet installed but haven't found much use for it. I got it only to sync notifications between my phone and tablet. I also make use of monitoring notifications from my laptop at the office. You can push files as well.

Mooktastical posted:Can't help as far as replacement parts go, but you can check to see if it's still pressurized yourself, assuming you have the back replaced. Dial *#*#SERVICE#*#*, then go to service tests, then the pressure test. If the number goes up when you pinch the back and screen, you're golden. That is pretty awesome.

I got this guy about a year ago and love it. Only thing missing for me currently is quick charge. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00GTGETFG/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_5aFJvb5T1M277

WattsvilleBlues posted:Has anyone got a trip report of the Galaxy S6 4 months in? My dad is considering getting one when he's due an upgrade at the end of September. He is currently on the 5S, and is ready for a change. Main thing he'll be looking for is nice smooth performance and better battery life. Little late, but been using one since launch. No issues or slowdowns yet. The physical build quality is great. I do itch for a nexus device sometimes, but that has nothing to do with the Samsung experience, just my own inner nerd.

WattsvilleBlues posted:How's the battery life? My dad would be coming from an iPhone 5S and the power falls like a rock. Did you ever use previous Samsung phones? A work colleague has an S3 and I couldn't believe how sluggish it was. As in a 5+ second delay when switching between apps. Came from an S4. Broke that about 3 months before the S6 came out. In the meantime I used a 5S. Battery life is fine on the S6. If I am not laying on the couch actively draining the battery with a game, it lasts me all day without issue. As someone else has said, switching from an iPhone to an android device may be a hangup. So keep that in mind.

TraderStav posted:I'm in the same boat. As much as I like the Moto G I am having some serious tech lust at the moment and want to upgrade already. There is nothing WRONG with the G, but feel like I want more. How is the battery on the Note? Very interested to see how the 5x plays out. OIS camera may tip me over to that. I have had no issues. Screen is great and battery life lasts me the day. No slowdowns or anything yet.

With my S6 I have zero problems with Bluetooth streaming to cheap speakers off amazon. The head unit in my Jeep (stock head unit) seems to really dislike Bluetooth.

C-Euro posted:My wife's S6 is no longer charging when plugged into any sort of power source. Outlet, external battery, nothing. Tried restarting it, tried powering it off and plugging it in, nothing. The plug on the bottom doesn't appear to be damaged in any way, and all cables I tried work with my S4. Any ideas? I'll take a stab at abuse/corrosion. Both my wife and I got our S6's at similar times. She has been (from what I have seen) more rough with the micro USB port. Her's doesn't look damaged at all, but doesn't like certain cords that fit "loose". Those cords still work in my phone but seem touchy. I'll take a second stab and say micro usb port on the s6 isn't the best, and is falling apart with use.

Smythe posted:I would never buy a phone that's not part of the Nexus line, and therefor a reference device that's directly supported by Google, so no - of course not. It's like asking a computer professional if they've ever bought an Alienware: Of course they haven't, you'd have to be stupid to make that choice while being informed. You should try the S7, it is pretty nice.

Doctor Butts posted:Sorry I can't be more specific but look around in the config options for using wi-fi networks and data. I seem to remember an option somewhere (but not in wi-fi settings) that controlled whether it would just automatically start using any network. I just dug through my Verizon S7 and couldn't find that. I recall something in the past, but unsure. I had to use an iPhone for a few months, so it could have been an Apple thing.

Yeah I like the Nexus devices as well, bit I have a strange setup. I can buy my devices for the subsidised prices through work. 10 month period and my line is due for another upgrade. Also, I am hooked on Samsung Pay now.

I was hoping before 2017, but earlier would be welcomed. You figure they would have been doing a lot of early testing for one of their brand new flagship phones.
