Does anyone else have the issue, that the SD card speed goes down significantly a while after the last reboot? I tried both with a Samsung PRO 64 GB and Samsung EVO Select 512 card. At the beginning I get around 40 MB/s seq write and 90 MB/s seq read. But then, after an hour at most, it slows down to about 16 MB/s write and 22 MB/s read.
This is a huge difference and should not happen on a top end device, especially not when I am even using SD cards from the same company that work fine in other devices.
(tested with Cross Platform Disk Test CPDT, file size 0,5 GB, otherwise default settings).
I've run two tests and both maxed out at 22MB/s
What card do you use? For modern cards this is definitely too slow! It seems like theS8 can go to at least 50 write and 90 read.
Today I tested with another brand new 512 GB Samsung EVO select (2021 model). Same problem as before.
For all who are interested: I sent an error report via the Samsung Members app and after a while I got a response. This appearantly is a known issue and will be fixed in a future Update:
"Dear Samsung customer,
thank you for your message, we are happy to help you.
The phenomenon you describe is already known and will be fixed with an upcoming update.
We ask you for a little patience so that we can solve the phenomenon for you in the best possible way.
Please check regularly whether a software update is offered to you and install it if necessary."
Thanks for checking in with them, and reporting back!
Next update would probably be Android 12L with OneUi 4.1.1. Since some site said Galaxy Z Fold 3 got august update and after that the Android 12L will be next for it. So then I suspect galaxy tab s8 ultra will get it next too.

I downloaded a new update for the XAR Tab S8 Ultra yesterday or the day before but I haven't installed it yet. Here's hoping the 12L/12.1 update comes soon for it.
The new update had my micro card reading at 80mb/s and writing at 39mb/s

Hi.
As in subject.
I have Note 5 from 2017. Few monuth ago i buyed Note 9- overall of course better from 5 but Note 5 is still good phone. I back to five for few days. For me better from Note 9 is s-pen. He is thicker, more massive than note 9.
Next is flat screen. Definitely writing is more comfortable.
Then is overall looking and colour front and back. My is Gold platinum. In light looking silver-white and anyway isn't booring like all new samsung phones from s8- all black front.
My note still working in last stock 7.0. I flashed last build for TUR from end 2018. Now i can make note in screen off like in note 8/9 without any mods. Then install newest touch wiz, messages app, contacts, camera 6.95 with new icon and now software looking like Note FE.
So anybody have note 5 for daily driver?
I own a SM-920I since late 2015 and on nougat and stock. Have to take back up every once in a while to free up the space though. Haven't found reason to upgrade to a newer note yet but the new S10 plus is tempting. Planning to flash custom recovery to make the phone work on VoLTE.
I am still using my N920P unlocked for my T-mobile sim card. Just order an original battery from Samsungparts to test out the TRUE CAPACITY via usb amp meter multitester in another post of mine.
Recently i've been obsessed with phone battery's real capacity... I will move to note 9 real soon but still want to use N920P for the time being
Sadly, me too. I'm waiting for my 2 year contract to end in a month or two, then I'll go with the Note9. This POS was crappy from the Beginning. Just 32 gb with no expandable storage, Puny 300' mAh battery. Meh, It was the only Note I could afford at the time.
I am using SM-N920C with khongloi rom. Haven't yet considered upgrading the device as it is still functioning properly except the battery wear after 3 years of use. i still love it.
I just sold my note 5 N920C because 32gb storrage and 3000mah battery is just not enough in 2019.
Looking forward to buy note 9.
The Note 5 Is a Pretty Phone
But It can't be future proof at all.
32 GB of SD Card Is a Big disappointment for Long Use.
Granted its More Beautifull than My Note 8 , But Honestly I always felt kind of disappointment with only 32 GB SD Of Storage I kept Constantly Deleting My Data.
If they make a Note 5 like Phone but with SD Slot and Dual Camera I might buy It.
but honestly the 32 GB Of Storage makes it Impossible for Any one to Record Several videos , Play Games at same phone.
A Cheaper Option that would last Too Long Is now the Note 8.
The Only Negativity is the Speaker is not as Good as Note 9 other than that The Note 9 and Note 8 are identical.
I'll be buying note 9 soon. But i just spent $50 just to order a OEM replacement battery from Samsungparts... Because all of the aftermarket batteries i bought didnt live up to 3000 mAh.
And maybe it is just me 32 Gb for me is enough i always backup stuff to computer so i do not need more space.
Not many people out there that are like me still saying 32 GB is enough storage nowadays lolzzz
It looks like I'll have to unlock this phone (a Sprint version) as our business is going to TMobile... no free phones, so will have to make this work.
That said, any hints from others re good custom roms for an (unlocked Sprint) T-Mobile Note 5? I love custom roms... but with Sprint they are all but nonexistent. TMobile looks more promising, but am curious what folks have found.
I am still using my note 5 lovely.
~3-4 SOT as always. My battery changed ~1.5 years ago.
I am using my paid-to-unlocked Sprint Note 5 on T-mobile network currently. They have special software to unlock these Note 5 But i think that software is nowhere to be found over Internet
I'm still rocking my T-Mobile Note 5 64gb SM-N920T rooted still running Nougat. I need a ROM with reliable Bluetooth and WiFi. . .

What is your SOT like really using the phone from 100% till auto shut down?
Hello!
I have just received my phone, and, to my surprise, realised it was the Hong Kong version(it was bought in Europe, 8 GB version). Has anyone with this device received the Android 11 update? I got the December security patch when I first booted, but no Android 11 yet..
No I have also this phone but still nothing
Same model, and still not android 11.
My brother have a exynos version, he got it like 2 weeks ago
If you wanted the Euro variant I would contact the shop you bought it from, but the extra 2GB of storage is kinda cool. The twrp/rooting/xposed guide in the section suggestion you can do those things just as well on your G7810.
Regarding Android 11, have you tried using Samsung keis to see if it has an option for A11..?
Look what I'm getting!

Great Hong Kong version got his android 11 today
I got it too today
The sm-g7810 received one ui 3.1 with march sec patch today. For a Chinees variant it get his updates pretty regular compared to LG I've owned. For the money I've purchased it's a great value

Still waiting on it for SM-G781B (Singapore) - but it looks like this model trails HK updates by a few days, so expect it any day now. Really we can't complain about the current speed of Samsung OS updates...
*Edit*: Yup, just as I suspected, received the update today - maybe this serves as some comfort for all you 7810 owners that the HK updates are not the slowest after all? In any event, they're still plenty fast for all of us in my opinion - certainly much faster than they used to be...
Hi all,
I'm trying to find out if there is a performance difference when it comes to storage between the 128gb and higher spec ultras. As I understand it, bigger SSD devices are generally faster.
I ran benchmark against a 128gb model (linked below.) Can someone with a 256 or 512 model post their results?
many thanks in advance!
My Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G (SDM888) scored 27292 in the PCMark Storage 2.0 Android benchmark test. http://bit.ly/pcmark-android
Passmark storage test was around 78,000 I believe.
256GB Exynos model (SM-G998B) so maybe not comparable, but: I got PC Mark 2.0 storage test = 30329.

This used to be the case for SDDs many moons ago (I haven't checked lately TBH). I would not be surprised to find better performance in higher capacity, I think it mostly has to do with optimized cell access.
Thanks for the feedback y'all! Looking around today I can only find 512GB international models so this may be a moot point.
I had a 512GB ordered from Samsung a few weeks ago when you could still get them on their website, but I cancelled the order thinking the price might come down when the S22 is announced. Just couldn't justify paying full price for last years tech.
T-Mobile still wants $1200 for a 128gb model, so I'm thinking I'll just wait for the 22.
The 22 looks to be an evolutionary upgrade with not much new over the S21 Ultra....smart money is on the discounted S21 since they appear to be virtually the same minus an S pen

I'm cool with grabbing a 21- problem is where to find one that's discounted let alone a 512.

I would purchase the S21 Ultra for a few reasons. First being Android 12 is a disaster, it's still nowhere near stable. The new Exynos SoC for the S22 is having serious production issues, only a handful of chipsets are usable from an entire wafer. The S22 Ultra will cost more money but few feature upgrades. The S-Pen (which works on an S21), a bit of a camera tweek, faster charging and new colors. Samsung needs help, it's no longer a great value.
S21 256 GB - 25000.

Wow I'm surprised it's less than the 128GB! Perhaps it's because it's filled up more, whereas the phone I tested on was brand new.

Well I found one place selling the US 512GB version for $1700 on ebay, but that's the cheapest I could find. Might have to just cave in and get the 128GB from TMO for $1200.
More googling revealed that the RAM in the 16GB model is probably also faster.
"At 6,400 megabits per second (Mb/s), the new LPDDR5 is about 16 percent faster than the 12Gb LPDDR5 (5,500Mb/s) found in most of today’s flagship mobile devices. When made into a 16GB package, the LPDDR5 can transfer about 10 5GB-sized full-HD movies, or 51.2GB of data, in one second."
From: https://news.samsung.com/global/sam...dr5-dram-at-worlds-largest-semiconductor-line
The test is probably not reliable then.
I redid the passmark test and here's what I got for disk and memory on the 128GB:
Disk: 74,902
Memory: 31,918

You can buy the 512GB Snapdragon variant for $1,349.00. I'll PM you a couple of links. Internal Storage doesn't really change speed of a device, not to a degree where you'll see a big difference.

A warm welcome to XDA. I hope you'll always get the support you require. And age isn't an issue at all; you're only 10 years more experienced than me.
Did you already check the device forum for a solution?
Samsung Galaxy Tab 2
The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 is an Android tablet released in the spring of 2012. It has many different versions, with variations coming in capacity, connectivity, and screen size. The screen size options are 7" and 10.1". Storage capacities vary between 16 GB and 32 GB. There are also HSDPA enabled...

Hello,
I recently bought the GT 5G, without knowing that GT 2 is on its way. Now, I can easily return the GT and preorder de GT 2. Looking at the GT 2, it has:
better camera (which I don't really care)
bigger display
bigger battery
corning gorilla glass 5
nonetheless, the promise of 3 years of major android updates.
I appreciate the new update policy, slightly bigger battery and corning gorilla glass. What are your guys thoughts, if you were in my position, and for those that have it, how is the experience so for, are pleased with the phone ?
P.S: I paid for my GT 5G Yellow Racing - 448 € Currently the GT 2 (12 GB variant) is on preorder for 545 €
Thank you !
Depending where you are the GT 2 128gb is 449€ again on amazon spain.
For that price I would return it.
I'm loving the phone apart from a small issue on the screen. Super quick charge, great camera, navigation feels fluid and quick, no lag or anything. For my use, no games, it's more than enough.
I just wish it was a little smaller, I'm not used to it.
3 years of updates isn't a good reason from my view point except maybe to fix the Android 12 fubar
Seriously if the current firmware is fast, stable and fulfilling its mission... let it be.
This Samsung N10+ is still running very well on Pie. I have no intentions of ever "upgrading" to 11 or 12... maybe 10 although it's no cherry.
If you can turn it and not lose much money, ok.
Otherwise maybe wait for the next release; get a phone and OS version you like and ride it for a while.
Fk the hype sales gimmicks... both Google and Samsung taught me that

Reading this makes total sense I have the GT 5G for about a week now and one thing is very clear, the support for realme in Europe is really bad compared to India for example. The forum for global community is empty . By the time it take to roll a stable update for any of the android version for that 3 year promise, will be a journey ...
Truth be told, I cannot complain about this GT 5G, coming from a Samsung Note 8, it's a blast to navigate the phone

The N8 is ancient. I had a S4+ before the N10+'s... yeah future shock. Lol, I was running on Kitkat/Touchwiz for years.
The Note series zenith was the N10+, after which Samsung has dropped more balls than a spastic labrador.
I don't blame you for bailing
And you got a 3.5mm jack... unfortunately no SD card slot. I would like to see Samsung have more effective competition now that LG is gone.
The problem with smaller manufacturers is less devices and often less support by fellow users.
3 yrs update is a very good reason to get GT 2 as GT was launched with android 11 and 2 years update policy.
With GT 2 launching with android 12 + 3 yrs update u will get updates till android 15 , while on GT only till android 13. Thats 2 years of better software support.
Good decision.
