I suspect discoloration and black crush are unrelated symptoms. I've had my S9 over two years, I've had black crush issues right from day one (particularly noticeable in Netflix content at the moment) but I've not had any screen discoloration. I do tend to make sure I run my screen fairly low...

Permission denied on that path is not unusual, some devices simply don't support accessing that path over ADB. To delete that path, USB debugging needs to have already been enabled in the device's developer options so you can delete the gesture.key file and regain access. I've had a similar...

I have an S9 (SM-G960F), UK SIM-free unlocked, running the latest OTA Android 10, One UI 2.5, Baseband G960FXXUCFTJ1, Kernel 4.9.118-19869059, Build number QP1A.190711.020.G960FXXSCFTK2. My network, Three UK, runs two APNs - the main one "three.co.uk" is a CG-NAT APN which almost all users use...

Issue seems common to every user. Looks like Samsung cleverly removed the ability to edit/update your own home address from their web site and the Members app and nobody's realised this.

Tried that one on my SM-G960F (UK/Europe dual sim with the Exynos 9810), it doesn't work. FC when trying to open. Ended up using GCam_5.1.018.177470874.41362666_IDan_N6_3.5_fix.apk via this Reddit thread (link to my comment with my findings...

Ah, so the ADB remap methods won't screw with anything? I'm right handed, but I've always held phones interchangeably in either hand. As I often keep the phone in left pocket, I'll typically hold with left hand and only use right hand for fast typing / pinch zooming. Most annoyingly, using...

Compared to my LG G4, I think the S9 has a tendency to slightly overexpose normal photos, even with HDR enabled. I find I constantly adjust the EV compensation (dragging the slider after tapping to focus). As a point-and-shoot camera, it's surprisingly versatile and copes fairly well. The "Pro"...

The Bixby button location is in the perfect location to be a left-handed-hold camera shutter button. :rolleyes: But I don't really want to trip Knox just to remap its operation... I wish the volume rocker was about one button-worth lower than it is. It's about 2cm too high, another Bixby button...

This is also happening on my new Samsung Galaxy S9 running Android 8.0.0, Samsung Experience 9.0. I'm talking to their support to try and get them to take it on as an issue.

Just installed v4 on my replacement G4. As always, working great - and the different icon is very useful to quickly differentiate between stock and your ported version (I put both camera icons in their own group on the bottom bar of the launcher). Perhaps in future, an option to either change...

Just installed - 60 fps video works well, and camera switching works (though the "Beautify" slider has no effect - fine by me!). However, whenever I try to switch to external SD for storage, the app says "Storage Full. Not enough space on SD card. File will be saved to internal storage. To free...

Sadly not so on this stock ROM, video recording with XCam only uses the bottom mic (by the headphone socket) even with stereo recording enabled in the video options in XCam LG Settings. Stereo recording works fine with the stock camera app. I'vet tried blowing into the mics and listening on...

I've seen it's possible to have a user profile photo display as your user icon when you swipe down to show the notification bar in Lollipop. However, mine just shows the generic bobblehead icon - although I have a perfectly good profile photo on my Google account. Am I being an idiot and...

I bought the GLAS.tR NANO SLIM (SGP10921) for my G3 and fitted it when I got the phone. Sadly, even treating it carefully, it developed a hairline fracture on the left side of the display -- in a very graceful arc -- and has now cracked in a lovely semicircle. It's still sticking to the screen...

I only tried this for the first time with my FiiO E7 tonight, but it worked first time. I also coincidentally did an OTA Android update to V20h: I'm just using a standard micro-to-mini USB cable I purchased from Lunashops a few months ago.
