    Loving my black Alcantara Case

    Anyone know how it'd hold up to oil and grease? I'm an oil service tech so I often have to use my phone with messy hands. Just tired of using plastic cases

    Aftermarket charger damage my battery?

    Even my oem cord from Samsung will display that message when I charge from a non Samsung usb brick on occasion. I'm not sure why it is like that, works fine in my personal truck but my work van gets the message, same cord.

    dual cable for USB-c out to HDMI/dvi/vga and charging?

    I bought an hdmi, usb, and usb 3.0 cable on Amazon for $20. I stream my phone to a tv, charge via the usbc, while using the usb 3 for a mouse.

    Screen mirroring

    I can't relocate my router, or use a Wi-Fi booster/extender. It's not my garage, and I'm not going above hooking my phone up to the tv lol. I haven't launched smart view? I'll try that on Friday. Most likely my problem. I just plugged my phone into the hdmi to usbc adapter and it launches dex.

    Screen mirroring

    It does otg supposedly. Like I said it launches dex, and that's what I use. It works ok, but you have to use a mouse and if disables the screen display.

    Screen mirroring

    Have a Chromecast. I'm doing this in a garage not near Wi-Fi. Chromecast couldn't setup and was like waiting for dialup to load a video. So I'm using an hdmi to usbc adapter. And dex launches, instead of just mirroring the image to the tv.

    Screen mirroring

    So I was interested in using my phone as a mirror, and being able to play videos and such on a tv. I went on Amazon, bought a usbc to hdmi adapter, and when I plug it in, it launches Samsung dex? Instead of screen mirror. Is there a fix for this? I'd rather use my phone instead of the dex...

    Warning!! Do not let your battery die!

    Yeah that's why I was saying it could be part of the software to monitor mah vs voltage and disable charging below a threshold that's being incorrectly reported as dangerous somehow.

    Warning!! Do not let your battery die!

    Could be trying to fast charge it when dead? Possibility that it spikes the voltage and the phone won't turn on due to incorrect voltage. Just a thought after the issues last year. The typical voltage in a battery 3.77 but at peak can be 4.77. When you first put a lithium battery on a charge...

    Charging the phone

    Thought oem implied it was the one that came with the phone.... but anyways, tried different plugs and my computer but no luck. Ended up at best buy and bought a new cord.
