Note 5, flip it or love it?

Hey XDA


Brief background, want to make this small post here.

Had the S4 for a year, actually enjoyed it for what it was worth, wanted out as soon as we knew for sure there was no root. Stock Touchwiz was just terrible on the 4.


I've never had the chance to own a Nexus device before, my carrier upgrades always came just before the Nexus devices were released, and I've been so ready to upgrade when it comes I jump on it.

This time around I stuck with my G3 for a while. I love this phone. I'm ready for new, and the phones coming out this year are not quite "notable"

I really have my eyes on the Nexus 6P - but US carriers not selling it means I have a decision to make. Got my dad the Note 4 earlier this year, he likes it. I like it the little bit I've played with it. I feel I could even use the Note 5 to replace my notebook in class for notes. ATT bootloader seems to be like the S4. Not much will come of bootloader unlocks with this phone.. It appears.


------

So I will upgrade through ATT, probably to the Note 5. Question is - stay with the Note 5 and learn to love it, despite the experiences I've had with Samsung, or flip it unopened on CL and order up the N6P....??

I really do not want a subpar camera to the G3, nor do I want a dull screen. Both devices seem on par, both no SD, battery not removable on the Note... Cameras both good..

Anyone here want the Nexus 6P?! Willing to get rid of your Note 5 for it?

flip cover Help, please!!

Hello, my problem is this:
I have to protect my Galaxy S6 Original flip cover from Samsung.
The screen turns on and off by itself when you open or close the flip cover.
(this is correct).
But I want to disable this function in my galaxy s6.
It's posible?
I have a Galaxy s6 32gb .
With firmware G920FXXU2COH2 base.
not root (for the moment).

Free Wireless Charge or Flip Case with Samsung Pay Activation

I didn't see this posted anywhere, so I thought I would give everyone a heads up. Samsung is giving away your choice of a wireless charger or flip case when you activate and add a new card using Samsung Pay. It says the offer is only valid until supplies run out, which I imagine they will fairly soon. Considering the wireless charge cost , this is a pretty nice little offer. So, even if you don't plan on using Samsung Pay, you might as well activate to get your free gear.

Only owners of NOTE 5 and 6 edge qualify for this samsung offer, go to samsung pay app and go to announcements!!:):D:o

A Decent looking flip cover

Hello so with my Moto x style on its way i have been hunting for a good looking flip cover.
But the ones i have found so far look super cheap and ugly adding a fair bit of bulk to the device.

Im looking for something like the flip cover you can get for the one plus one from there store its sleek black adds little to no extra bulk.
Has hardly any over hang and most important the phone is firmly in place and wont fall out.

I have been looking on both ebay and amazon and done a general google search without much luck.

Phone freezing with flip wallet after display replacement

Hi!
My one month old S6 Edge fell down last week and the front glass broke. However I used the phone normally until today when I got the display replaced in a store. With an original out of the box display from Samsung. After that I noticed that the back and app key (the lowest touch buttons one the front) did not light up at all, although they did work. When I put the phone in the flip wallet cover it went dark and did not respond anymore. I could here it getting emails or phone calls but the screen kept black. I pushed Volume Down and Off buttons until it restarted, with normal screen (the touch buttons also lit up for a second) but after loading normally the screen went black again. If I took it out of the wallet cover it lit up, the two keys also lit up, but the keys did not work at all. Again forced restart. Without the wallet cover the phone starts normally and works except that the touch buttons stay black, but they work. The moment I insert it into the cover it goes black.
It must have something to do with the magnet sensor?!

I took it back to the store, the guy put back the brocken screen and it acted again the same. Then he ordered the USB Board (the part with the charging port) just in case he may have broken it himself but actually he doesn't know if that will help.

Do you have any idea??
Thanks!
