    Note 10 stuck in reboot loop after automatic update

    Thanks, i will try this, is this a reputable site to obtain the firmware?: https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-note-10-plus/firmware/SM-N975U/TMB/#SM-N975U I think 30 seconds , definitely not a full minute, though i can give that a shot before flashing the firmware.

    Note 10 stuck in reboot loop after automatic update

    If left alone, the phone keeps rebooting, it will advance up to the T-Mobile screen until it reboots. I found some guides online to try going into safe mode and recovery menu to troubleshoot but they all require turning off the phone first which i was not able to do. Most guides suggest...

    S7 Edge - High battery usage and random installs

    Installed WLD and this is the most useful screenshot (I think) of the lot but unfortunately it doesn't tell much. From what I've seen online, this is just the cumulative wakelocks and there is no way to drill deeper in this app. I see there is paid app which can do that but not sure if worth it...

    S7 Edge - High battery usage and random installs

    No neither of them show that - I looked at the signal strength graph and that's mostly high. I'm going to install Wakelock Detector Lite. That might show the apps keeping it awake.

    S7 Edge - High battery usage and random installs

    Attaching screenshots here. I didn't find #4 on your list though. Also including 3 additional screenshots which seem relevant since the OS is showing as the major battery consumer.

    Pink line on display randomly comes and goes

    A few days ago I started seeing a pink line across the display of this phone. Plenty of discussion on it on Samsung forums so its a common issue. In my case, the pink line sometimes goes away and I'm not sure what causes it to come and go. I don't want to take it to repair only for the line to...

    Calendar app is toggling 'All Day' events off by default

    I sync my Outlook email with my phone. Usually, when an event is marked as 'All Day', it appears on the top of that day. On this phone, I noticed the events are instead blocking off my whole day. Checked the meeting settings and saw that 'All Day' is toggled off. Even though on my Outlook this...

    How to install old versions of Chrome on Samsung S4 or S5?

    I think this is what I'm seeing. It's preinstalled even when doing a factory reset. I soft bricked the phone while trying to root it though :D. Hopefully can fix it and downgrade Chrome.
