I probably would do the same if I didn't have the plus model and also wouldn't be so bothered by this... But the position of our power button is just terrible for one handed use, especially if you use your left. That's why I'm in the habit of DTTW on then using the one handed operation + app to...

Do you have any idea what revision it is on now? I can't find anything by googling it, I just know my about phone section shows a hardware revision of 1.0.

As the title may indicate, I'm getting really frustrated with my phone constantly waking in my pocket. I do like using DTTW when it actually works correctly, and carry the display side in against the leg to prevent damage... But i'm getting pretty freaking mad samsung over the pocket dialing...

I thought they "fixed" it in the last OTA a few weeks ago? Mine has been a lot better since that OTA, but I still do get random wakes here and there that are still really annoying. I guess they still have work to do.

Thanks for all of the feedback, I'm going to download One Hand Operation +. My only question about remapping the bixby button is doesnt that require root access?? I looked all over with google to see if it could be done without root and I couldn't find a way. I played around with the bixby...

The awkward position of the power button makes me miss the sleep gestures in xposed framework when I would just remap google now(don't use anyway) to sleep so I could just swipe up from home to sleep the phone to return to the pocket... Thing is I'm on Verizon and don't have root. So does...

Its funny you mention that, I manually got the update after I posted that and the DTTW already seems better, no waking in the pocket so far(with rather little time to test though). But I also only get about 5 hours of SOT, I don't get how so many people are getting almost double what we are. I...

I have the snapdragon version on verizon and I definitely have the proximity sensor bug. I'm not sure if anything triggers it, it just seems active all the time. Even after a fresh reboot, the phone constantly wakes in my pocket from double tap to wake and it is infuriating. I've been waiting...

No I ended up using the slightly-less-than-terrible verizon trade in offer on an s10. I got the plus because of the 4ah battery specifically although im already remember how much samsung's UI's blow compared to regular android... But if I had gotten one I would probably just get one directly...

Youre saying every phone does this though, not just samsung keeping it from bottoming out? Because on my pixel I never observed that shortage when it was brand new either.

Mine only shows 3900 mah for the estimated capacity on the health screen... I'm pretty mad about this. Only thing I can figure is it hasn't been completely depleted yet, the lowest I've taken it is about 15%. So maybe they bias more charge capacity for the last 5-10% to help prevent people from...

For a self proclaimed "provider of experienced replies", you really don't know what you are talking about. You don't need to sample the battery chemistry, the current the battery provides over it's charge cycles are what is necessary. The app takes approximations of it to determine how much...

Thanks for the feedback, I'm not surprised the term has come into use. I probably sound like some kind of conspiracy nut but I am sure the manufacturers design the phones with planned obsolescence in mind by only giving them the minimum amount of battery they can squeeze since they will go down...

I know it will give a better estimate than the original claimed capacity because it degrades over time

I remember that when the S9 series made it's debut, Samsung claimed their batteries would degrade more slowly over time than the competition, even to the extent of claiming only 5% loss of total charge in the first year vs the 15%-20% that you can expect from pretty much everyone else. Now that...
