This one out since last year. Under goodlock family apps.
Got to say its very convenient. Now i totally dont need to use the physical button. The latest update add media control options.
For power button options, under goodlock nav bar option, can add in nav bar.
For screenshot as well. And now can do screen recording without using game tools screen record.
Multi window without pausing app as well.
All in goodlock and good lock family. Check it out and install the function you need.

change samsung note 8 battery

Hey guys, anyone of your note 8 battery seems to die much faster compare when you first bought?

now when my phone batt reached 20%, it will dropped like 1% per min until when reach 10%, auto shutdown and cannot boot up.

So if anyone change batt before, how much is the cost? I am thinking should I wait for Note 10 instead.

Sounds like you have used up most of the battery cycles. Perfectly normal due to wear and tear

at most 20 month for note 8
you may do a calibrate for the battery thus the die at 20% won't happen. I did that for my N8 few month ago and although battery not as good as new but at least the percentage is more accurate.
download software from the store, e.g. Battery calibration Pro, and follow the steps to do the calibrate.

Yeah, feeling like the battery is going to the longkang. I even did a battery change around August? And the battery is still pretty bad.

quite a small battery though as compared to other smartphones. Anyway, battery do have certain lifecycles, somemore our phones are powered up 24hrs a day. More or less, it's prone to some loss of battery life - i think

Was free swap when they claimed they did it as it was still within the warranty period.

Either your charging chip is not working properly and so not charging the battery properly or you're a super heavy user and charge the battery multiple times... each battery has a life span based on the number of charging/discharging cycles... once you reach that limit, the battery won't perform as it should... my Note 8 is about the same age as most who bought in the first launch... the battery is still pretty good... I charge it only once a day though... after work... the battery lasts me until the evening even if I'm on it for long periods... mainly Whatsapp that takes up most of the battery life...

Guys,anyone has issues with the sensors like auto rotate and gps after updating?

Mine have the same issue. Auto rotate stopped working after update. Restart, wipe partition and soft reset did all but still not solved. Have not tried hard reset. Coz it will take too much time.

Disable auto rotate and enable it again? This should work I hope..

Samsung May security update is available for Note 8, although SG one is not available yet. Malaysia is already available though.
