Some users reported issues with the flash on some S6 devices, remaining dimly lit even if the camera is not in use or the device is turned off. Samsung was made aware of the problem, which affects the S6 and S6 Edge, but has not specified when it will be fixed. In November , Google's Project Zero unit publicized eleven "high-impact" security vulnerabilities that it had discovered in Samsung's distribution of Android on the S6.
Some of these had already been patched as of their publication. In its first month of sales, 6 million Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge units were sold to consumers, exceeding the number of Galaxy S5 units sold within a similar timeframe, but failing to break the record of 10 million set by the Galaxy S4. Still, facing competition by other vendors that have led to declining market share, a lower net profit , and foreseeing a "difficult business environment" for the second half of the year, Samsung announced during its second quarter earnings report in July that it would be "adjusting" the price of the S6 and S6 Edge.
The company stated that sales of the two devices had a "marginal" effect on its profits. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Mail Online. Tech Advisor. Retrieved 15 June Ars Technica.

However, the easiest and quickest way to scan a QR code on iOS by far has to just be via the Camera app.
You don't need anything else, as the stock app has the ability to recognize QR codes when you simply point the camera at them. You don't even need to press the shutter button. When the camera recognizes the code, you'll get a notification to open the link in Safari. And finally, there's also the Google Chrome method. All you need is to have Google's popular browser installed on your iOS device.
Then, long-press the Chrome icon and voila, the option to scan QR codes is right there in the menu. Select it and simply point your camera at the QR code or barcode you wish to scan!

What's the status of the T-Mobile and Sprint merger? It's a date, say deal-closing bankers. Since several years I use my phones to track my running activities, but with switching from the S4 mini to A3 I instantly noticed a wrong measure of my usual running route. I confirmed with a pedometer that the S4 mini was a lot more accurate regarding the real distance than the A3.
My next run I'll try without it, to make sure it isn't interfering with the phone's own location mechanisms. My questions to you: Is anyone experiencing similar issues? Any hints how to improve accuracy in my case? Thank you! Senior Member.

Thanks Meter : 0. Join Date: Joined: Oct I find a3 Gps performance great Even indoors gps performance is great, is my first android mobile that can make a fast GPS FIX indoors, 3 meters from the window.
GPS trail tracks also very good. The iphone 7 has also bad GPS performance comparing.
The Always On Display dims when ambient light is low and will shut off when the Galaxy A3 is in your pocket. This saves energy, but you can. Samsung Galaxy A3 () review: the mid-range phone that thinks it's a flagship All you need to do is go to the settings, then search for Advanced features and Activate it and your button will appear in the Camera app.
Normally i use gps only, and carried the mobile in hand, thought. And faster. No discussion about it. That said, I never compared both routes as you did. By the way, I don't think pedometer is a good comparaison object Join Date: Joined: May To improve quicker and accurate gps, you can switch off bluetooth and wifi scanning in Location setting top right Also possible it works better with wifi total off.
These are all signals in the ether conflicting a bit.
OP Member. Thanks for the tips. I recently started testing again and maybe I found the cause to be related to my tracking app runtastic.
When the route starts being off where I really am, and I open Google maps in parallel, it shows me being completely off track, like in a lake for example. And it stays this way while running: it moves forward, but still several meters off track. But then when I stop and close runtastic, the Google maps location suddenly jumps back on track where I currently am.
