hi phone gets very hot at times.
i recently purchased the s6 edge 64GB and I am delighted with the looks of the phone. however one feature/aspect of the phone is really annoying me to a point where I am about to write up a bad review about this feature.
The screen on full brightness during daylight is very nice and bright. however when I go into a dark room or even the toilet the screen itself would just dim down even though the "AUTO" brightness is switched off. so if auto brightness is switched off and the brightness is on manual at full brightness why on earth is the screen still controlling the brightness. I want it to remain the same whether its dark or light. if I want the phone to control the brightness I will put it on auto and allow it to take control. this is extremely annoying. have u noticed this issue?

Read Multitasking the Android Way. (She wrote some of the code, so she should know what she's talking about.) Knowing how much RAM is in use is about as useful as knowing which stall the cow whose milk you're drinking was in when she was milked. It's information, but there's nothing you can use it for. The more RAM in use, the snappier your phone is going to be in most cases. (This isn't Windows, so forget the entire notion about needing free RAM - Android works best with as little wasted RAM as possible.)
