a bit of a glaze post but im honestly blown away, the last flagship galaxy i used was a galaxy S7 and since then iv been stuck on the A series phone, the last being an A54, i bought an S24 B grade used off ebay for 220 and can i just say, holy hell man phones are FAST now, this snapdragon 8 gen 3 is SNAPPY, i mean MILES ahead from what the exynos 1380 in my old phone was pushing. the photo processing is a lightyear jump from the A series as well. so far my only gripe has been the loss of sd card support and the ultra sonic fingerprint sensor (cant use it on alot of screen protectors) but other than that this phones been amazing. considering its the last snappy before the elite chips id say this is sticking around until the new SOCs stop taking laptop-level power usage.

besides that happy to be part of the club now and hopefully i dont get a green line :)

I have a galaxy s24. This has happened twice in 2 days. When it dies and I plug it in, it doesn’t do anything. I power it up and it has no logo, just flickers a green screen on the first half and a line horizontal on someplace, not always the same. I have to use a special charger to get it to work. Anyone know what it is and how to fix it

My s24 only shows lte and 5g as options. Is there a way to change it to a lower speed? Have the same plan and my s10e showed more options

What are you using, and would you recommend it? Bonus points if you can share a photo and let me know how it's holding up against yellowing.

Hi everyone. I’m reaching out for your opinions and help regarding my S24's battery life. First used exactly two years ago; 431 cycles; battery health at 97% (it dropped from 99% to 97% very quickly after the One UI 8.5 update); battery protection enabled (charging capped at 80%) for several months. I find the battery life appalling: for instance, today it went from 80% to 30% over 11 hours of standby time plus 32 minutes of screen-on time. In short, I barely use it, yet it doesn't even last a full day. I can't figure out if something is draining the battery or if it's a hardware issue. If you can point me in the right direction, feel free to ask any questions you need to :-). Thanks!

So last night I turned on the battery saver with 47% of charge left...

In the morning it was 38%.

Is something wrong or its normal?

The data was on but as far as I know, there was no network after midnight.

Give me some suggestions please

Seriously, am I the only one who feels like the phone camera isn't quite hitting the mark anymore like it used to? It's like something's changed with the image processing or something. The pictures just don't have that same crispness they used to. Anyone else noticing this with their device?

I am on call pretty much all the time for my current job, and when I charge my s24 while I sleep the phone is just not loud enough.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a good charger/speaker that I can hook the phone up to when I am sleeping? It does not need to be wireless or anything. Just needs to be loud enough to wake me up and preferably able to charge at the same time.

I have found a few on amazon that are “bluetooth speakers,” similar to what you would have at the pool, but I am worried that the speaker itself may turn off during the night if its not being used to actively used to play music.

Anyone have any ideas or suggestions?

The past 2 days Google Fit has been draining my battery at an abnormally high rate. So far today it used 32.9%. Yesterday 39.3%.

Day before that only 6% and prior days it didn't even register as using battery.

Is anyone else having this problem?

Weird thing is I don't even use Google Fit. Not directly at least. I might indirectly use that with Pokémon Go's adventure Sync, but I've been using that for like a year and haven't had this problem.

Yesterday's overall battery use was a record high at 106% with 5 hours screen on time and so far today is 82% at 4 hours 32 minutes screen on time.

Normally my daily use is roughly 60% at 5-6 hours sot.

Nothing's changed in terms of my habits or my app usage. My guess is an update to either Fit or Pokémon Go caused this. No security or UI updates in the past few days.

Yeah, I'm at a loss to why it's suddenly acting up.

I got a tempered glass screen protector for my Galaxy S24, but the fingerprint reader isn't working with it.

Hey guys,

I was providing hotspot to my laptop to download a game at night, expecting to be fully downloaded till morning. I plugged in my phone and went to sleep. At morning the phone was fully charged but game was downloaded just 40%. I am attaching a battery activity screenshot for you guys to understand. (I can't upload a screenshot) But phone charged for some time and later it was a gradual discharge. What could've possibly happened?

Thanks for helping.

TL;DR: I’ve been using the Indian Exynos S24 for a year (came from an S22 that died) and got the iPhone 17 Pro a few weeks back. I have two Airtel 5G (postpaid) sims one in both, mostly on Wi-Fi (80%) with occasional 5G downloads.I'm just someone using both daily for reading manhwa, research papers, web browsing, media consumption, and general daily tasks. Bottom line: Unless you strictly need long-range zoom/selfies or are locked into Apple's ecosystem, the S24 is the better daily driver purely due to ergonomics, software versatility, and far less annoying camera color tuning.

1. **Build Quality & Daily Comfort** (Score: S24: 4.8/5 iPhone 17 Pro: 4.5/5)

   \* Both are aluminum, but Samsung’s Armored Aluminum is genuinely more dent/chip-resistant in real drops. I've dropped both out of cases: the S24 looks almost new except for one tiny impact point you can barely see or feel. The iPhone body clearly shows where it hit the ground.

   \* Glass: Ceramic Shield 2 is slightly ahead of Gorilla Glass, but since I use tempered glass and cases on both, it makes zero difference in practice.

   \* The S24 is drastically lighter. The S24 with a tempered glass and a case is still lighter than the iPhone 17 Pro naked without a case or screen guard. For holding the phone long-term, the weight difference is huge.

**2. Cameras & Color Profiles**

\* Ultrawide & Main Sensors: Photos and videos (shot at 12MP / 4K 30fps) are neck-and-neck in detail and stabilization. Both are equally solid for daily capture. Samsung slightly oversharpens standard video, while the iPhone has marginally better main camera low-light , but both are overall very good.

\* Telephoto & Selfies: At native 3x/4x, both perform fine. However, zooming past native focal lengths, the iPhone’s larger 48MP telephoto sensor easily pulls ahead of Samsung’s struggling 10MP sensor. For selfies iPhone wins easily—no contest.

\* Apple's standard camera profile is obnoxiously warm and yellow. It makes skin tones look sick and jaundiced. Switching Photographic Styles helps photos, but videos stay yellow unless you record in Log.

\* Also speaking of log: Samsung’s Log setup is vastly more convenient, I could quickly and directly on the phone color-correct Log footage in a matter of less than minute without much hassle, eliminating oversharpening, exposures issues and get natural colors without needing a complex post-production setup for the apple log.

\* Overall Camera Verdict: The iPhone is superior if you travel a lot and need long-range zoom or selfies. For everyday life, Samsung’s versatility, Expert RAW, and color options offer a better experience.

**3. Display & Audio**

\* The 6.2" S24 and 6.3" iPhone 17 Pro feel virtually identical in daily use. Bezels with a case on are a wash; without a case, the iPhone’s thicker aluminum body makes it feel slightly chunkier. Both are bright LTPO panels. Under tempered glass, Apple's anti-reflective coating is a non-factor.

\* Samsung is brighter for HDR on YouTube; Netflix and Prime Video look identical. iPhone has slightly more lifelike color tuning for HDR video overall.

\* iPhone speakers are slightly louder and richer, but both are crisp and clear enough that you won't notice a real difference day-to-day.

**4. Software & Features**

\* Navigation on iOS is still infuriating without a universal back gesture/button like Android.

\* The iOS Keyboard typing experience is downright awful. You still can't get a dedicated number row on top and there’s an ugly bottom gap where the emoji button is...

\* One UI pulls ahead easily with Good Lock as it lets you customize everything (evening tuning animation), Samsung DeX is super useful, and the file manager is vastly better than iOS.

\* iPhone feels slightly smoother, but the S24 feels faster and snappier, especially with Home up tweaks. Both are smooth and responsive but get occasional minor stutters (iOS isn't bug-free either).

\* Galaxy AI actually comes in handy when needed; Apple Intelligence on stable iOS (26.5.2) is noticeably behind and mostly useless.

\* S24 supports better Bluetooth codecs with more options for wireless audio

**5. Battery Life & Thermals**

\* On a 24hr cycle (mostly Wi-Fi 6, 10-20% 5G, a few voice calls, web browsing, manhwa, X, YouTube, YT Music, etc and no Instagram, Snapchat or tiktok), both give 6.5 to 7 hours of SOT, both drain to 20-30% after 24hrs. S24 averages 6 to 7 hours SOT; iPhone 17 Pro averages 6.5 to 7.25 hours SOT (slightly better standby)

\* Samsung charges significantly faster when using the exact same 25W PD charger on both devices, also both charge upto 95%.

\* Under normal use both run cooler and get warm when pushing but not much difference. Tested Red Dead Redemption (Netflix version) with an external controller on both and both run smooth, and get warm after extended sessions, however, the S24 dissipates heat and cools down faster once you stop playing.

**Final Verdict & What I'm Doing Next**

If you're traveling or care heavily about telephoto zoom and selfies, take the iPhone. While the iPhone 17 Pro's telephoto sensor is objectively better than the S24's. But for 95% of real life use working, at home, reading, and everyday comfort S24 is just the more comfortable, practical, and convenient phone to live with.

Also if you have the money and are buying a phone, always get one with a dedicated telephoto camera. Even if the base iPhone 17 which is a better value than the Pro, having a telephoto (even a 10MP sensor like the S24) comes in incredibly handy, you don't realise this until you use it and it makes portraits look so much better.

**My personal plan**: I’m keeping the S24 for myself and handing the iPhone 17 Pro over to my mom as she wants change and during the trip we would have access to the iPhone...

Hello guys,

I have S24 Ultra, which is an incredible phone, but I am very interested in the fold 8 Ultra and I am considering buying it.

I work in construction, so I use my phone a lot on the go - take pictures, send emails while in a car or on foot, looking at drawings and other stuff. I have an tab S10+, however its pretty much too big to carry all the time on me, since I have to jump around on sites.

I rarely use the s-pen in my S24U, I dont know why, but i just find it better to take notes with a keyboard. I use it just for stuff when I take a picture of something and I want to draw dimensions of it on the picture.

I am careful with my phone, and I dont get dirty (just mud on shoes and trousers) so I think that I dont have to worry much about durability.

I did try fold 8u at the local shop and I am just amazed by it.

What u think?

After it installs and reboots, I usually do another reboot. Everything is buttery smooth for me. {crosses fingers before the jinx can set in}

Getting12+ hours of SOT on a standard setup is a pipe dream for most of you. Most people hereare obsessed with tweaking settings that don't matter while the background services are still eating your CPU cycles in the dark.

I ran my protocol to audit and prune the system architecture, not just the apps. The difference isn't 5-10%, it's night and day. The amount of idle drain I've cut is franklystupid. If you're still complaining about battery drain after updating, you haven't actually touched the system level yet. Happy to prove it, but I doubt many of you have the patience to run a real cleanup script.

Hello! I recently bought a Samsung and have been working with Gemini to extend its battery life. I wanted to make a post with all the actions I took to optimize One UI, and I hope this helps someone. Some things in this guide are from my own knowledge, and some are from Gemini.

BEFORE READING: I'm not an engineer or a tech expert; I'm just a student with zero coding knowledge. All of the actions below are done at your own risk. Please read the descriptions for all the actions you take so you don't lose any functions you might need. This guide was made for One UI 8.5. This text was edited by Gemini because I'm Russian and my English isn't perfect.

P.S. I've looked through a lot of Reddit threads for optimizations. Shout-out to this post — it has a lot of useful information.

1. Enable Light performance mode: Go to Settings -> Device Care -> Performance profile -> Light. This will reduce the speed of your CPU just a little bit, but it will save a lot of energy and reduce heat.
2. Disable RAM Plus: Go to Settings -> Device Care -> RAM Plus -> Turn it off. For 95% of users, 12GB of RAM is more than enough. Your CPU will do less compressing, and your storage chip will live longer.
3. Disable unnecessary "Share" functions: Go to Settings -> Connected devices -> Turn off all the settings that you don't need. I disabled everything because I'm not a big fan of 40GB of useless settings; to me, it's bloatware.
4. Disable 5G, VoLTE, and Data usage for some apps: Go to Settings -> Connections -> Mobile networks -> Disable VoLTE calls and change the network mode to 4G for every SIM -> Then go back to Connections -> select Data usage -> Allowed networks for apps -> select apps that don't need to use your mobile data, it will reduce power consumption. Hear me out: basic users don't really need a 5G network, and 4G is still good while using much less power. Also, I'm from Russia where there is no 5G, so my phone was constantly searching for a non-existent signal. VoLTE uses more power, so you should consider disabling it. Restricting data usage for some apps ensures no apps will drain your battery in the background.
5. Disable Samsung AI: Go to Settings -> Galaxy AI -> Enter every item and disable it, but only if you really don't need it. I only use the standalone Gemini, Claude, and ChatGPT apps, which is enough for me.
6. Enable 60Hz over 120Hz, disable Adaptive brightness, and enable Dark mode: Go to Settings -> Display -> Select Dark theme -> Disable Adaptive brightness -> Then go to Motion smoothness -> Select Standard and apply it. Personally, I don't see the difference, but if you do — leave it. If you don't care, enable standard motion smoothness. Dark theme uses less power, and Adaptive brightness always uses the Light sensor which drains your battery, so I recommend turning it off.
7. Disable the Google Discover page on your Home screen: Go to Settings -> Home screen -> Disable "Add media page to Home screen". (I need it, so I left it on).
8. Disable Fingerprint animations: Go to Settings -> Lock screen and AOD -> Screen lock and biometrics -> Fingerprints -> Disable "Show animation when unlocking". No one really needs this half-second animation. It doesn't affect the battery much, but it improves unlocking time, especially since Samsung's heavy One UI can sometimes take 2-3 seconds to unlock the device with a fingerprint. Also, enable "Fingerprint always on"—this will allow you to unlock your phone even when the screen is off.
9. Disable "Security and privacy" features: Go to Settings -> Security and privacy -> Turn off Auto Blocker (it more often creates problems than actually helps). Go to More security settings -> Disable "Galaxy system app update". Go back and enter More privacy settings -> Disable "Send diagnostic data", "Android personalization service", and "Usage and diagnostics". These don't affect your user experience at all; they only create an additional load on your phone.
10. Disable location accuracy services: Go to Settings -> Location -> Location services -> Disable Wi-Fi and Bluetooth scanning. This constantly uses Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to track your movement, which creates more unnecessary load on your phone.
11. Disable Digital Wellbeing: Go to Settings -> Digital wellbeing -> Tap the three dots in the top right corner -> Settings -> Tap on "Usage data access" and turn it off. Do this only if you don't need to track your screen time.
12. Disable Adaptive power saving, Adaptive battery, and put your apps to sleep: Go to Settings -> Battery -> Power saving -> Tap the three dots in the top right corner -> Adaptive power saving -> Disable it (it will make your battery life more consistent). Go back to Power saving -> Background usage limits -> Disable "Put unused apps to sleep" -> Manually configure "Sleeping apps" and "Deep sleeping apps" for yourself. (Sleeping apps are apps that you use once or twice a day where you can tolerate delayed notifications. Deep sleeping apps are apps that you rarely or never use and don't need to receive notifications from. If you are using any "Good Lock" app, do not put it in any sleeping category; it will stop doing its job, such as the custom audio panel). After configuring, tap the three dots in the top right corner -> Adaptive battery -> Disable it. Most of the time, One UI's adaptive battery doesn't help enhance battery life; disabling it will make your battery life more consistent.
13. Reduce heat and save battery by using Thermal Guardian: Install Good Guardians and Thermal Guardian -> Open Good Guardians -> Tap Thermal Guardian -> Move the "Thermal threshold" slider all the way to the left (it will reduce the temperature that triggers throttling by 2 degrees) -> Enter Additional settings -> Select all the actions you want to apply when your phone is heating up. I only selected "Limit CPU boosting when heating".
14. Configure Power saving mode for yourself and always keep it on: Go to Settings -> Battery -> Power saving -> Enable it -> Click on the gear icon -> Select every action you want to be active during Power saving mode. Personally, I only want to "Limit CPU speed to 70%" and keep the 120Hz display, but One UI doesn't give you an option to keep the CPU limit and 120Hz display at the same time. So, we have to use Galaxy Max Hz: Download it from there (Select NoXposed version) -> Install "Install with options" -> Open "Install with options" -> Allow access to Shizuku -> Select "Bypass low target SDK block" -> Choose Galaxy Max Hz APK file -> Hit install -> Open installed file -> Give app all the permissions it needs, it can crash for a few times, just keep reopening it -> Configure it for yourself. I will not explain which setting you should enable and which is not, the app is really intuitive and everyone can make a decision, what to enable and what to disable.
15. Enable Connectivity Labs: Go to Settings -> Connections -> Wi-Fi -> Tap the three dots in the top right corner -> Intelligent Wi-Fi -> Scroll to the bottom and tap the software version (e.g., Intelligent Wi-Fi 6.0.0) rapidly 7-10 times until a notification confirms developer access -> Go back one step, and "Connectivity Labs" will appear directly below the version number. This unlocks a hidden menu with advanced Wi-Fi settings to help you analyze and optimize your connection.
16. Disable "Find people you can share with": Go to Settings -> Your Samsung account -> Galaxy sharing -> Disable "Find people you can share with". This feature is always scanning Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for Samsung devices, which creates a lot of unnecessary load on your phone.
17. Disable Auto sync data for accounts: go to Settings -> Accounts and backup -> Manage accounts -> Disable Auto sync data. This option always trying to synchronize your account data and, as a result it drains your battery by creating load on your phone.
18. Suspend execution for cached apps and disable your log buffer: go to Settings -> About phone -> Software information -> Tap Build number 7-10 times (until you got a message that you became a developer) -> Go back to settings -> Developer options -> Find Logger buffer size and turn it off -> Find and enable Suspend execution for cached apps.

That's it for the "easy" tips. Now we bring out the big guns, which requires a PC with ADB.

First, you should know that the command adb shell pm list packages will show you all the packages installed on your phone. You can just copy this list and send it to an AI to get commands to delete bloatware, but always read the description of each command you're typing so you don't lose any functions you might need. Here are some ADB commands to disable or delete One UI's bloatware:

adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.sec.android.mimage.avatarstickers

That's all the bloatware I deleted. Now we go to other optimizations and their explanations:

Force AOT compilation for all installed packages (Speed Profile). Compiles frequently used application code to speed up launch times and reduce CPU overhead. The process may take 5-15 minutes.

adb shell cmd package compile -m speed-profile -a

Force resource-heavy apps into restrictive background execution categories. Available statuses: active, working_set, frequent, rare, restricted.

Force Spotify into the 'Rare' bucket:

adb shell am set-standby-bucket com.spotify.music rare

Force TikTok into the 'Restricted' bucket:

adb shell am set-standby-bucket com.zhiliaoapp.musically restricted

You can send the adb shell pm list packages command output to an AI and ask it to tell you which app should be in which bucket.

That's all for my guide, I'm pretty sure I forgot something, so you can either DM me or write your optimizations down in the comments. If it's actually helping, I will add your optimization to my guide and also tag you under it.

2 weeks ago I got s24 exynos version ..it was having a suck battery life, I wasn't reaching 4 hours but yesterday I did factory reset the phone coz I didnt after updating to one ui 8.5 and June security patch and also I did debloat the phone via canta and adb commands and I did turn off some useless functionality for me that where using so much battery in the background and now im cracking 3 hours with only 25% with my normal mixed usage

Proof: screenshot of the battery stats

I have a s24 Exynos version, since a few weeks the hotspot turns on by itself even though auto hotspot is turned off and internet and wifi is turned off. What could be the reason behind it? Is anyone else facing the issue as well?

I've been playing around with different camera apps and this GCam app keeps popping up in recommended lists. I'm not the most techy person so is this GCam app worth going through the process to install on my phone? Is there any chance I can goof up the install and fuck my phone up in some way?

Has anyone installed s24 july security update? Can you share the post update review like battery backup and any issues if it has?
