[NOBEL ROM]Convert S6 Edge to S6 Edge plus

Convert your S6 Edge to S6 Edge Plus [Nobel Rom]
We knew that once Galaxy Note 5 and S6 Edge Plus were released, we’d soon have Note 5 or S6 Edge Plus ROMs for Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge.
Well, it’s already here for you! *If you install the latest Noble ROM, you will get all of the features of Note 5 and S6 Edge Plus on your Galaxy S6 or S6 Edge.
This ROM is based on the Korean S6 Edge Plus model, giving you the Note 5/S6 Edge Plus launcher, camera (with YouTube LiveStream mode), and the latest edge/app shortcuts for the edge screen which also works flawless on edge-less Galaxy S6.
Also you can install this on my Galaxy S6 or S6 Edge models including SM-G920F, SM-G920I, SM-G920S,*SM-G920L,*SM-G920K, T-Mobile*SM-G920T, Canadian*SM-G920W8,*SM-G925F, SM-G925I, SM-G925S,*SM-G925L,*SM-G925K, T-Mobile*SM-G925T, and Canadian*SM-G925W8.
Performance and battery life is actually nearly identical to stock Android 5.1.1 since it uses a stock-based kernel. *Overall, this is an excellent way to upgrade your Galaxy S6 or S6 Edge into S6 Edge Plus without getting a new phone so definitely check it out this week(end) and do let me know what you think!

Note 7 AOD on S7?

hello.
I saw that the note 7 has the 1.7 version of Always on display and our s7 edge has the 1.3 version. Can that version be ported? Will it need root or it'll be just an upgrade for the app? I'm asking because s7 watchfaces are so boring and any 3rd party app might not change the position of the text and will cause burn in.
I personally think that we will have the same features as the note 7 on Android nougat.

I think so too. Just like samsung Cloud, the GS7 Edge will most likely receive the new AOD as well.

Searching for the same, i liked the one at the Note 7 and waiting for the update to hit the S7 Edge

Well especially third party support for notifications like WhatsApp... can't wait for note aod on our s7

It's amazing with many many features , it's how should it be
Waiting for the update on fire

Any news on this ? Did anyone manage to run the Note 7 AOD on a non-rooted S7 Edge ?

Help me decide LG V20 vs SG S7 edge-Exynos (Both unlocled)

Hey guys
Pls help me decide between the LG V20 & SG S7 edge
some questions:
1. what about root for Both V20 & S& Edge?
If I understood correctly it means tripping knox at the S7 edge and not so possible at V20?
how streaky all that stuff?
2. What about Roms for the V20? is the community make nice Roms for Lg phones? Would it be reasonable to expect to find an updated , nicer and better then stoke Roms and for long ? will it be possible even if I wont have root accesses?
3. how is the accesses from the PC? how easy and comfortable it is?
4. Radio (and IR blaster) (for S7 edge)? I read it might be possible. Does anyone know something?
5 .Fast wireless charging for the V20 (global). Is it possible?
6. I never Used LG phones. How are them, both for shorter and longer time? (I don't expect to replace phone every year nor two).
7 .Charging socket- older Samsung devices seams to have problems with that after a while. Did it got better? How is the Lg devices?
8. handling and repairing (software and hardware) for both the devices. where should I expect more problems and how easy should it be to fix them?
9. What about other hardware and the software differences? Which one is preferable and in what area?
10. what other things I should ask or know about them in order to decide best?
Thank a lot!

I own both devices. LG v20 wins easily.

Can you explain? (the more the merrier )

I came from the S7 edge.
It was one of my least favorite Galaxy devices. The V20 is much better IMO. I don't plan on going back to Samsung any time soon.

LG wins on battery life, responsiveness and as good as the S7 camera is the LG camera is better

Another thing, draexo,
You mansion at your signature that you are very disappointing from your S7 Edge SM-G935A. Can you say that are you disappointing from?

Ive owned an s7 edge and S7 and now own an LG 20 and i have to say I am enjoying the LG 20. There are things i will miss from the edge:
1. Samsung Pay. My bank just started to work with it and its fantastic.
2. Native wireless charging. I only used it at night when i went to bed bit it was convieant.
3. Themes. It was nice to occasionally change the look of everything system wide. LG is lacking in this.
Thing I wont miss from edge:
1. That damn thing was the most fragile phone I ever had. Ive owned many phones over the years and never had such an issue with the screen cracking from simple drops. Not only did i crack the screen but wife did to dropoing it when putting it in a case.
The camera works fine for me on both.

LG V20
Go for LG V20! It has much better UI and very responsive, zero stutters or zero micro lags unlike Samsung flagship models (TouchWiz to blame, might be) You will be pleased with the camera , smoothness and watch out for LG V20 features.
The reason is my almost 2 year old LG G4 flies like a 2015 champ and the camera is phenomenal.
Used to be a Samsung owner till Galaxy S5.

S7 achieve root in July about 3 months after it was released. The lgv20 is new and you're going to have to give it some time to see root can be achieved

Two quick points to add. The LG is going to feel snappier. Even if you use a different launcher, TouchWiz framework is a performance drain. I'm done with Samsung as a result.
USB Type C. I'm never going back to micro!

My v20 has only lagged twice. It was some serious frame drop page and one time I know some heavy duty stuff was going in background. The first time I have no idea but it was jarring to say the least. This is absolutely the fastest phone I've used. The only exception might be the pixels but for the first time in my android career I have no interest in it. Other than to play with it a few minutes. Actually like the 6p better than the pixel and I have r touched either one.

The fact that the S7-Edgeis made of glass actually worried me. Even for older devices I bought Protective sheaths to prevent damage. So glass device?
And now you say it is most fragile.

Can S6 and S6 Edge Roms work on our S6 Edge+

I've noticed official LinageOS is available for the S6 and S6 Edge, i no it's possible to use Note 5 roms on the S6+ while using a S6+ kernel. I searched through the S6, S6 Edge and S6 Edge+ threads to try and find if it's possible to use S6 or S6 Edge roms on the S6 Edge+ while using a S6 Edge+ kernel.
No one has confirmed this, tho it seems all devices use same hardware i believe besides screen size and ram. I don't wanna risk bricking my device. If anyone has any information would be great.
Thanks.

It works, but generally not as simply as change the updater script. You have to match ramdisk sizes and make sure paths are correct. If you really want to know you should pm me, it took me two years to learn because nobody wanted to explain it and tutorials only get you so far unless you fully understand what it's saying.
