Nice mr Capelle
How's handling the phone with one hand?
How does the factory reset work? You still go to recovery usual way -- Volume UP + Home + Power, or Volume UP + Home when it's re-starting? And then doing a factory reset from recovery? Is the recovery and download mode look all same on Galaxy S6 Edge, as they were on Galaxy S5. Please share a pic if you can. Thanks!

They have changed it, in terms of aesthetics. It works like all other Samsung phones.
Thanks! Recovery still good ol' aesthetics-wise?
Other picture.. Can't put it in download again as Im running prerelease Firmware. I can't come back without flashing a ROM. So if you o not mind I'll skip the recovery picture...
How's the battery life on it? Using a Nexus 5 at the moment, which'll last 2 hours with heavy use - was wondering if the S6 Edge would be any better.

Battery life is for what I can tell reasonable but like what I said earlier I'm running pre-release Firmware so not final so I can't tell on this just yet.

Thank you for your answer.
How about what you think of touchwiz? Is it still horrible or is Samsung finally understanding that people are not so much into useless gimmicks?
Which of the default stock apps can be removed and which can't?
Is the home button made of plastic or glass?

Bloody good question mate, I'd like to know this as well but I think we'll need to wait for a review or for someone to get the Infuse 4G to see what the battery looks like.

Hmm the phone dimensions might indicate a large battery in dimensions but that could also just as well be the phone itself being larger due to the .2" larger screen?
I've asked Android Community guys who done the side be side comparison, will let you know shortly.
How nice would that be if it would fit, The phones "physically" are similar. maybe when at&t gets the phone ill go rip the battery out like a mad man and try it in my sgs2

WOW how did you get such good battery use?
I get only 12 hours and its dead. Only texting and some email and some web browsing. I'm running everything stock and have background syncing enabled
I also am charging the phone with the cables from my atrix, if that makes a difference.
Thanks in advance
Damn, oh well worth a shot I guess

Well everyone has their own definition of "heavy usage".
Mine discharged in 3 hours of non-stop Tank Recon gaming yesterday (gave it to a group of kids), WiFI off, but all notifications on , like push for gmail, yahoo mail, talk, YIM, facebook, twitter, etc, and net-connected widgets updating.
Admittedly this was my second day with the phone, and the battery did not "optimize" itself yet, plus I did not tweak anything yet either.
Unfortunately, especially after upgrading to Lollipop battery Samsung Galaxy Alpha G850F discharged very quickly and not know what to do :
I have:
1 ) disabled as much as possible ( when not in use ) and the BT GPS
2 ) tried to replace the original battery with a 2850mAh of ( so they say ) not original
3 ) tried to disable both S Voice that Google Now they say consume a lot
4 ) Reduced brightness and battery life activation screen in 15 sec .
The term does not arrive in the evening since it from the detachment at 8:30 in the morning, I get up at 17.30 scarce not use it to call , remaining in the wifi network but navigating virtually nothing .
I'm really confused and do not know what to do . If anyone has any advice and can help me or I know that sooner or later will change phone .
Thanks a lot

Try GREENIFY.
Root + Xposed Framework + Greenify + Amplify can help you save a lot of battery.
My phone is using original battery with 0.8%/h battery drain at night time with mobile data and wifi always on.

Hi guys,
I've been using the existenz until I recently did a clean flash of this rom here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2/general/sony-z2-d6503-prerooted-customized-au-t3432625
The same problem from existenz carried over to this rom where the battery usage is showing times from the past 48 hours and since usages get reset when battery hits 100% I'm only seeing a small section of my usage on the right side of the meter. Here's screen shot to show what's going on.
http://imgur.com/a/f5NE9
can some one tell me how to fix this or know what's going on?
Thanks

Hi all,
I'm using this amazing phone in the last weeks and i noticed that, when exposed to sun or close to a light source, the screen starts brightening up until black gets almost light grey and colors start saturating. Then i tried to cover the light sensor and in a couple of seconds the screen reverts to original brightness and colors. The phone did this since the first day and noticed that my gf's is working perfectly. Already tried to flash, root and update but nothing changed.
Anyone else had this issue? What should i do?

Yes, I have the same issue too! I think there's nothing we can do... At least with the stock ROM. In fact, if I don't find any big cons, I will flash CM13. I'm sooooo tempted
There is something on the new sd820 assistive display not sure it's on with the std rom I know using rooted and use lspeed app u can force it on.

I ran across this several days ago and decided to test it on my own Le Max 2: With it I managed to get 6.5 hours SoT with fairly heavy web browsing (Opera) and music playback (Poweramp). I'm running AospExtended 5.4 Official 2018-04-17 and Helix Engine 2.0 Beta Free.

Kind regards,

Thanks for this advice, i will test it, because it's a really good idea. Considering the fact, that i'm not a heavy user, it should be interesting, if the effect is still noticable.
For me too much apps that do not open or open very slowly at the moment.
I like the dynamic flow of slowing down or speeding up the CPU for the phone needs. I will check the development later on.....

That's probably due to the kernel your ROM is using. I've not experienced any of those problems with the ROM I'm using... :good:
Should I make changes to the default profile (I assume "Balanced Profile") or just leave it as it is?

I can confirm this, I uninstalled it hence. Also it didn't have any noticeable improvement like 1 hour SOT extra or so hence using it is a no no.

I just left at the default, which is Dynamic Balanced. By the way, that profile incorporates Battery, Balanced, and Performance mode switching.

It may. But I suspect you'll be better results with it if the device is rooted and allows Super User access. As a matter of fact, root access is required for it...
