so this my fifth day with s7 edge and I just realised that I may have got a defective one (u guys shall confirm this ) so I noticed when I play high graphic games like dead trigger 2 and need for Speed no limits I noticed that they run very smooth for like 2 mins until the device gets warmer then they start to lag like hell should I return it and get another 1?
I have 2 explaining videos but I can't post them
I'm thinking this is normal with a glass phone. It blocks the heat inside the phone and processor starts to throttle down to reduce the heat.
Can you check the temperature of the phone when this happens??
My tmo gs7 Snapdragon, gets hot while browsing the web and using the camera. I bought an infarared laser temperature gun to check the heat and its between 33-42°C depending on what im running. Idle temperature is fine tho 26-29C.
Gsam shows my battery temp is on par with the temp gun too

Doesn't sound good, no problem here at nfs most wanted, xcom, impulse or ff9, it just gets slightly warm after some time and I haven't noticed any drop in performance.
Have you checked if there maybe is some app hogging the performance in the background? Another possibility, maybe a bad update? I'm currently still on PB4, as of now still not rooted as well and just some bloat disabled through app manager. Game launcher active, but not the tools.

The s7 has a vapor chamber for cooling purpose and for me and many others (mostly exynos variant though) it's working pretty well. At heavy games this device is much cooler for me than my old s3 (at it's time) or g3 are.

No i have never updated it, and no iam sure that there's no app runing in background cos basically the last test i did was immediately after rebooting so there weren't any opened apps, does the bloat u disabled can really solve the problem? or it just improves performance? i highly believe it's tempreture related issue cos when i close the game for like 2 mins and open it again the game runs good for a short time then lag and so on

Apps can subscribe them self to startup, so that doesn't have to mean that much (e. g. like Facebook does that hoggs performance and battery, but not that bad as you describe it though). I haven't disabled much, wanted to say, that I even just used the build in tool and nothing external, which let's you disable more stuff.
But now as I think about it, I believe there was a thread about lag already...
Still, sounds like there is something not working probably, on which version are you on?

MMB29k.G935FXXUIAPB6, can a factory reset solve the problem?
It should not heat up like that, my exynos only get warm when in VR and that's not even at half the degrees my old s6 had..there is no games that can slow down the GPU as of today I most sertantly can say..I think your problem is elsewhere.
game dungeonhunter 5 so cool when play game. But chrome web some time is so hot, some time cool. I think maybe chrome quest cpu process (by JS of some website) to much make devices so hot. But game is ok no hot.
If it's hot enough that you can't hold the phone then I don't believe it's normal. I've played FF9 for periods of at least 20-30 minutes and it doesn't even feel warm.
Sorry raptor2000, but you have a defective unit. I played asphalt 8 for 2 hours (exynos 8890) and it was super smooth and the device become just slightly warm. For comparison with my note 4, I could not play for more than 15min(but it is known that note 4 snapdragon has this issue). Exchange asap if you can. The most graphic intensive thing for s7 suppose to be gear vr. You should not have any issues with any game.

Here's why
LAG, way too laggy (even with airview, air gesture, multi view, s-voice all off)
No FM radio
Poor Data - seems a lot worse then S3
Thermostat un reliable reading thus point less
TouchWiz - just seems not quite finished
Touch screen sometime does not react.
headphone sound very poor and volume does not go all that high
Thinking of going for HTC One instead.

Data always sucks on Android until you do some build.prop magic and get the speeds up to normal. Used to get 25mbps max before and after doing some tweaking I'm now almost constantly getting ~90mbps. Compared to my friend's S4 on the same exact 4G network, my speeds were almost double to what he was getting. My phone also switched to 4G in places where his phone stayed on 3G.
The same thing happened on the Nexus 4.
I'd also consider installing faux123's kernel before returning your phone, and applying some tweaks. Intellidemand + fiops + undervolt + Intelli-Plug (instead of MPDecision), takes care of most of the lag. :good: The HTC One definitely delivers a better experience out of the box, but I'd wait to see what google has in store first, as there's no phone faster than the Nexus 4 running a linaro 4.9 compiled rom. Also I doubt you'll have a better listening-experience on the One, as both have the same exact audio codec.
It's good enough for the head of Android at Google. I guess he has lower standards than folks on XDA. Or maybe he just doesn't know how to use it.
Q: Is it a problem for Google that Samsung is so dominant, and makes almost all the money on the platform?
A: I realize this gets played up in the press a lot. Samsung is a great partner to work with. We work with them on pretty much almost all our important products. Here’s my Samsung Galaxy S4.

Maybe you've got a defective unit or a much heavy apps (like anti-virus) running in the background because mine doesn't do that. The only time I noticed lag was when I returned from a heavy app (like NFS Most Wanted) to the homescreen, but the first update I received fixed that.

You can easily make your S4 lag free by disabling animations and transitions in developer options.

Attached my build.prop below. I think the speed improvements largely depend on the carrier, but do try it. Just copy the build.prop to /system/ and change the permission to rw-r--r--(chmod 644). Reboot.

Anything you've read about reboots etc is just false conjecture. History has shown through various outlets like XDA, Google+ etc that the Nexus 4 is rock solid and stable. So much so the Nexus 5, whatever it may be has to be SIGNIFICANTLY better in design and features before I even consider upgrading. Which I doubt I will because the N4 is just perfect for me.

thats normal. considering that its summer there where you are, and the air temperature is warm, thats very normal. the phone temperature while being used will average lower when its cooler there. the phones safety shutdown is at 100C cpu temp, so you are still quite a bit in the safe range.
No problems or over heating after about 10 months of heavy usage!
I can't understand why some people have so many problems with the Nexus 4, mine does no random reboot/lock now (last time I rebooted to install 4.3)...
I had a problem with over-night lockups (i was not the only one), so I disabled a lot of apps/widgets, and got many days without lockups. So I started turning everything back again, one by one. I had a suspect always in my mind: dashclock, I never turned it up again (it has so many plugins, including some made by me with Tasker). I can't tell for sure dashclock was the culprit it's an excellent app, and I ended giving up other apps too (I really didn't used them frequently ).
But I learned that apps can create random reboots... (the system should still handle this, but appears it does not).
So, I don't think anything is wrong with the hardware, since software can take a system down to.
The Nexus 4 is a great phone.
My only dislike is: now on 4.3, I have to use "hangouts" (no status?!) instead of talk (i may root to get talk back).
PS: I've disabled Hangouts, it is of no use to me.

as you said, most of the "issues" are user set up. the heat issue is blown out of proportion by too many, when the issue is a non issue. they "feel" the heat more because of the glass back.
anyways, the great thing about root.. im using talk on 4.3

well flash a custom Kernel which will undervolt the phone and then use an app to underclock the GPU not the CPU. I get 30-35 max, 5-6 hours of battery (4.2.2 ) I tried the 4.3 and did not like how it works.
Loud pops and crackles on the first 4-5 seconds of video taken with the camera.
Poor 3G signal/reception performance from update to update. 4.1 bad, 4.2 good, 4.3 bad again.

conjecture?
Since the 4.3 upgrade my Nexus 4 is essentially a paper weight. First it just refused to go beyond the X screen. After a downgrade of the radio back to 4.2.2 version, I could start up. After that, the problems weren't over. My N4 locks the SIM at random, shuts down a couple of times every hour and refuses to restart without being plugged in. Even when fully charged.
Worse: reflashing an older factory img (I tried 4.2 and 4.2.2) does not resolve these issues. Nor does flashing AOKP. Which is just bizarre, because my N4 worked perfectly before the upgrade. How can an upgrade lead to hardware problems?
I'm not alone.(but I can't post outside links, apparently.) There's a support thread on the google groups forum 6 pages long.

Are you wiping your partitions in fastboot before flashing the images? Sounds like an error somewhere is causing serious issues for you. It probably stemmed from a bad download and has yet to be corrected. I would wipe EVERYTHING and start with a clean slate. Re-download the images and verify the md5.

I've had random re-boots, shut downs and freezes up to and exceeding 10 times a day, during phone calls.... youtube, web browser. you name it. there is no disparity.
it's random. . . it doesn't care when it wants to re-boot. - i've had this problem since the day i received my nexus 4 on January 2nd 2013
It doesn't matter if it's running stock android. rooted or not rooted locked or unlocked.... freshly installed, new rom, different build or new offical stock build.. ~ maybe some builds it has been a little bit more stable.... but there was a short period where i just left the phone as is...
no updates.... no new software.... nothing..... it was working fine for a couple of weeks then the random reboots started all over again.
so i have no idea... honestly.... i've heard every reason imaginable.... it's this software, it's that widget. . . it ain't true.
the problems persist.... on a fresh install....no widgets running... no software downloaded.....
ive tried cyanogen mod for the last few months.... it's been better.
but it's starting the problems all over again... so today i wiped the entire phone.... in a last ditch effort to get it stable....
i'm stuck now without an OS and i can't get fastboot recognized in the command prompt..... i don't know what to do now... ive been reading threads for hours without success.... installing driver, sdk.... you name it....
it ain't bricked..... but i sure can't get android back on there without an OTG cable and that doesn't work on nexus 4. well.... mine anyway.
i just want stock android 4.3 or 4.2 ... "ANYTHING" running... with minimal apps and something stable.... that's all i care about. i can't afford another phone at this time.... so i'm completely stumped.
so . . . there are others like you... that ARE having major hiccups with their NEXUS 4's......
my friends at collage all have the same phone without ANY problems at all..... BUT there are some of us....
who have just had bad luck all the way....
Did you try to RMA?
Anyone have an issue with their accelerometer/gyro on their 6P? I'm thinking mines faulty, the first sign was Google Fit, telling me I've done 45,000 steps in a day (when Moto Body said I've done 5,000! which is realistic)...
Next I noticed that my Live Wallpaper Minima wasnt very smooth in its motions and kept on freaking out even when held as still as I could. It had always worked perfectly on the old Nexus 6.
The phone works fine in general & rotates fine etc. It just seems extremely jumpy. Anyone else having this same issue?
I spoke to Google and they're sending a replacement.
Heres a video of the issue:
I'll post a reply to confirm the replacement device has fixed the issue.
Hey Dyna. I'm Josh, the developer of Minima. I'm currently looking into what might be causing this issue, as I've received maybe ten complaints from various 6P and 5X users over the past couple weeks about the jumpy tilt effect. The fact that it's spread across both devices makes me think it has more to do with how the system handles sensor updates on Marshmellow, rather than a particular device flaw.
Either way, I should have an update out soon to deal with the issue. I hope it will be as simple as smoothing out the incoming raw sensor data. If you'd like to discuss further you can reach me at [email protected].
Hi Josh
I have a new 6P arriving tomorrow, but possibly not required if other people are having the same issue, unless its a more common hardware fault as not everyone will use similar wallpaper or Google Fit so may go unnoticed. I had a Nexus 6 prior to the 6P and it worked perfectly with Marshmellow and Minima.
I love Minima btw!
I had this problem as well, as Josh said it may be an app issue if we're all having the same problem.
Same problem as you but:
Having the same problem and noticed it the same way (Minima). I tried a random compass app and it was really finicky. At first I thought my gyroscope/accelerometer was defective but just now I tried Doodle Jump, which works fine. Now I'm just confused.

I can think of several reasons why some apps would work and others wouldn't. For one, the app can choose certain types of sensors for this info (gravity vs accelerometer) and certain delays (UI vs Game vs Fastest). It could also have to do with how the sensor registration process starts per app. I've tried different combos with no luck.
I really hope it's in my code, because then I can fix it and all's well. If it's a sensor problem though...:crying:
I published a fix for this last night, let me know if any of you are having a better experience now, and if so which device is working better or not.

Yeah I got it this morning, it's working much better. I still get the odd jolt, not a full glitch where it would freak out but a small jolt where it will stop for a fraction then catch up again. To be honest it may had done it on the Nexus 6, but I just never paid that much attention to it.
This is on both my 6P's, the original one that made me start this thread & my new RMA. It works perfectly on both, so maybe it was a software issue all along. I havent it long enough to see how Google Fit behaves, I wouldnt had thought your app would have had any impact on Google Fit?

It wasn't really a problem with Minima. Minima has been using the Gravity Sensor since last year, which is a combination of accelerometer and gravity data on the device. It's more accurate than just accel usually, which is why I used it. It looks like the gravity data can get buggy on the 6p and 5x, so I reverted to just using the accelerometer and things seem to have smoothed out.
So apps using gravity may get whacked out, while apps using only accel (like Doodle Jump) might be just fine. I can't say for sure, all I know is the switch seems to have worked well enough. I'm still continuing research in hopes that I'll find something more concrete.

I think I have also worked out why my Google Fit registers a stupid amount of steps. I dont fully understand why as none of my previous phones have done this...
I use Daydream mode as a bedside clock, which I've done for years, but for some reason on the 6P, if I do this it'll clock up as much as 40,000 steps overnight!
Heres this morning so far... I've been up about 2hrs and not even left the house:

I have the same issue with my 6P, you can clearly see that accelerometer is weird by using apps like star chart, or try viewing photospheres in a VR mode, you'll see that it just randomly like crazy

Minima Live Wallpaper. I'm using a different sensor configuration on Android 6.0 to work around the faulty gravity sensor data the 5x and 6p are generating.

Yeah, just sitting idle the 5x shows a lot of jumpiness. I can see how it's logging that as steps.
So I was having the same issues with my Nexus 6P, spoke with Google Support and ended up getting my device replaced. I just received my new replacement device today and this one is still having the same exact issues.
On further testing using the Street View app, I've noticed that when I switch to Cardboard View it tracks perfectly, it's only the photo-sphere view that will not track my movements; it either won't spin at all or spins wildly by itself. Anyone have technical data on what the Cardboard viewer uses to track movement versus standard photo-sphere?
My phone started messing up also after I updated to MDB08L on Nov 11. I got my phone November 9th and the step counts were normal until then. My UP app has me walking over 200,000 steps yesterday and 75000 today when I normally average 12000. This is using the phone sensors. My android wear watch has normal counts. I also use the daydream app at night but the trends graph in the UP app have me doing 30 - 70000 steps in a 5 to 10 minute span while my phone is not Daydreaming. I'll be waiting to see if your RMA'd phone has the same problem.
OP: Which build are you on?

Also the Google Sky app is very jittery as compared to my 2013 Moto X. But photosphere is relatively smooth.
I just installed and so experiencing issues... any fix yet?

I just tried photosphere on streetmaps and although it doesn't spin on its own or anything and tracks my angular shifts as I do them, it does seem to consistently show 'micro jitter' like it has parkinsons. I'm just gonna check my Z3 and see if it has the same jitteriness there and update this post. And as a side note, if this pans out to be true, then at risk of sounding retarded, I wonder if this same issue has been why electronic stabilisation is not at optimum on the 6P.
I got a replacement and it also has the same issues... I wonder if it's a software problem
too bad I updated android as soon as I turned it on, so I can't verify if it was working before MDB08L... any easy way to rollback to verify it?

I got mine just over 2 weeks ago now, I accepted an OTA straight away. I think it was from MDA89D to MDB08K & I noticed the issue straight away. I'm now on MDB08M and its still got the same issue.
I have raised the issue with Google support and the guy I spoke to said he'd raise it for me. Hopefully its just a software issue that'll be fixed in the next OTA update.
If anyone wants to roll back to the original image, you can flash the factory images here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images?hl=en as standard it'll wipe everything inc your pics etc, you can get around this by not flashing userdata.img.
Hello LG G5 users , feel free to talk here about anything related to the LG G5 :good:
Thread Rules
1. Respect the others
2. This is an LG G5 thread , do not talk about any other LG phone here.
3. Use appropriate langage.
4. And of course , respect xda rules.
So what do you think about this LG phone ?
Hi guys , thread opened thanks to @KennyG123 , now that the G5 is out and available for sale feel free to share your experience in this discussion thread.
I will update it later with infos , reviews , battery tests..etc.
Enjoy
This is my first impression of the G5 and I'm sure once the stock and custom roms start rolling out I will have a much better experience with my phone. I picked up my new LG G5 a hour ago from my local Sprint retailer and I have already run into a few problems that kind of bother me about the phone. I switched from my Nexus 6 to this phone and I would have to say I do enjoy the feel of the phone and the fact of it being smaller and easier to hold. This is the only good thing I have really noticed about the phone so far though. The volume rocker on the left side of the phone seems very strange and would be much more ergonomic with it remaining on the back or on the right side to be easily accessible with the thumb. The G5 does not have an app drawer with the current software even though there were leaks saying that they were actually going to end up adding the app drawer for this phone. The software seems as if it went for a more Apple style design with a more vivid color scheme. I ended up looking through some of the apps and there are advertisements in the voicemail app which just seems wrong. I have already ran into a bug which should be expected with any new release of a phone of course and this bug happens when I double tap on a notification on the lock screen it locks the screen instead of opening the application which I really hope wasn't the intended purpose. So far the phone isn't as great as I expected it to be.
@CorruptProfile Thank you very much sir for this first well detailed feedback.
How about other things like the camera , performance ( if you tried any intensive game ) ? Is it buttery smooth or LG 5.0 UX suffer from lags ?

I only really play Clash of Clans as far as game intensive on my phone and it ran very smoothly for the little bit that I was on it. The camera is far superior to any phone I have had in the past and the quality is great. The option for the regular launcher with an app drawer does not exist on my device which is no problem since I do not like the launcher in general and the Google Now Launcher is far superior to LG's. The biggest problem I have started to see with the device now is the fact the battery is weak as can be. I'm not sure if there isn't enough data collected yet to give an accurate estimate on how long the battery will last. I took the first screenshot of the battery usage before I used any high usage applications and it already was showing that my phone would last an hour and 47 minutes when it was at 41%. I would add screenshots to this but, I don't have over 10 posts yet so that isn't possible so I sent them to @Soufiansky so he can post them instead.

What about the module thing ? I saw a lot of issues about it these days
Sent from my GT-P5100 using XDA-Developers mobile app
I don't own a module and I don't really see the purpose of owning one to be completely honest. It's basically just buying add-ons if you prefer having them or not. I enjoy having the naked look of a sleek looking phone without having a bunch of stuff all over it. It really comes down to the person if they want the parts or not and personally I don't the parts won't make the phone any worse and if the modules really just fail then it won't have any overall effect on the performance of the phone itself.

hey, i just bought my lg g6 yesterday (fully updated it) and when i started playing games i did notice so lag low fps at some points in hearthstone and minecraft was around 25 fps (don't know if that's ok or not..) so i went to benchmark my phone on atutu (background apps all closed) and my score was 100000 on the 3d which is the no where near what it should be for my phone, i did a factory reset turned on forced gpu rendering and got just over 110000 which is still much lower than it's supposed to be, is my phone defective or is it a software issue. any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.

May be something wrong with your phone. An average Antutu score for G6 is around 130-140.000 so having only around 100.000 is a lot lower than expected.
Did you benchmark when the phone was cold or did you bench immediately after playing a game, while the phone was still warm? What was your highest score?

Have you tried hard resetting the phone? I mean a proper "hold power button + volume down hard" reset?
mines the same, around 100-110k similar results with game saver off and on. But I'm not bothered, as long as it gives me the great battery life like it is so far. I don't mind if its cpus are spun up a bit slower than the competition.
Could it be that DS model "only" gets 100k? I see 2 of you here with DS and 100k score. I got EU H870 and get, and always got, 140k which is on par with Pixel XL with same SoC.
can you guys share a screen shot with sub scores?
My sub scores are:
3D: 40185
UX: 36039
CPU: 24312
RAM: 6211
Total: 106747
So where are we lagging, which department?
edit: all apparently, 40k difference is a big difference, I'm sure this translates to real life performance difference aka the mild lag in games the OP was talking about.
i saw a screen shot where for people getting 140+k-155k its
3D: 60k
UX: 50k
CPU: 30K
Ram: 11k
How can there such a difference with the supposedly same parts...unless they aren't?

Check that theres no background apps running that can cause lag (like facebook app), try clearing system cache and restarting your phone, see if it helps.
Since you got good score i doubt it's phones hardware at fault here. Pretty sure you got apps in the background causing that lag.
Also, why do you have wi-fi and mobile data on at the same time? Isn't that unnecessary?

Why would you not have both on at the same time? Android prioritizes wifi over mobile. For those with a limited data plan it is helpful for the phone to switch over automatically to wifi when you are in range of a saved wifi signal.

I know but it also turns off mobile when connected to wifi, to save battery, and his isn't turned off, it's both turned on.
You gotta turn that setting on first (it isn't by default) which he probably didn't do so he has wifi and mobile working at the same time which can be a pretty significant battery drain.

Forgive the naive question but which setting is this? "Switch to Mobile Data" under wifi? even with data switched off my status bar still looks like both are working.

And yeah my data icon stays on even on wifi, no idea why, settings seem correct too.
