The magic eraser or similar was already available on Samsung phones, that is not an innovation. What they did with HDR and computational photography though? That is game-changing. Those smart filters doesn't necessarily define innovation. I'm looking to see what they could do with mobile videos, any new smartphone can take a pretty good photo in the daytime. Night shots and videos are where hardware quality and software optimization kicks.

In this case Google doesn't actually lie. If you're a software person you would know Google is the leading company in AI and ML. They have the technical expertise, and the data very few companies in the world (if any, maybe Facebook comes close, or Apple if they start collecting user data) has access to. They're going to redefine what a smartphone is, you'll see.

My man you no try at all. You dey follow person wey no even try use the pixel 5a or pixel 5 drag matter. Just pixel 4XL, and pixel 2 with plenty hours of YouTube from reviewers that thrive on finding negative reviews on devices.

Lmao this life no balance Kobo.

. download Samsung drivers to your computer and install

Download Frijja (a computer software that download Samsung firmwares)

In Frija, type in your phone model number and CSC
you said your phone is model SM-N975U( which is definitely a Verizon or sprint, etc phone

type SM-N975U1 instead (so it will download a US unlocked firmware (U1). this is very important

in the CSC box type XAA

it will find the latest US unlocked firmware, download should be around 4GB. after download completes unzip the file


after that download Patched Odin(very important) https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/patched-odin-3-13-1.3762572/

Use the Patched Odin to load the files you just unzipped.
1. BL will have BL file name
2. AP will have AP in file name
3. CP will have CP in file name
4. CSC will have CSC, **will wipe data!**
1. If you don't want to wipe data, use HOME\_CSC file
5. Click options on left side, make sure re-partition is not clicked
7. Put Note in Download mode
1. Turn phone off
2. Hold Vol up + down and
3. Hold power
4. Enter Bootloader using volume key and power button to hit enter
8. Connect phone to computer and you should see it as a COM in the upper left box in Odin
9. Click Start
10. Phone Should be updated after it's all done

Man wey Sabi! Abeg abeg be a regular on this our thread abeg.

It's because google has the software capable of handling it efficiently. The software department is where Google trump other android phone manufacturers. Just for example, when google started with computational photography, it destroyed the competition. Now almost everybody is catching up. For Google to have done that using the same sensor from Pixel 2 to pixel 5, one should expect that the pixel 6 with new sensor should destroy the market when it comes to photography. But hell NO. It's still on par with its competitors (APPLE & SAMSUNG). That is why I'm not impressed with Google. They have a better hardware now and one should expect better result but it's like the hardware doesn't matter at all when it comes to Google software. Therefore, a high end Snapdragon chip will still perform the same AI and ML functions the tensor chip. I just see this Tensor chip as just another Kirin chip (which is a good chip though)

Zero use of the new pixel device, yet you are an authority on it. Lmao. Delusion no dey pass like this.

Betnomore:
Bro I'll appreciate if you no put mouth for my matter as u have nothing positive to contribute.

Lol no vex. Just dey you dey yarn bants and I can't help myself.

Commit from this thread cos e no go Contain the two of us.

Betnomore:
I have replied gchux1 on this issue. Google markets the tensor chip to be great on AI and ML. Please give one real life scenario where this has worked. It might work as Google as envisaged in the future but right now is not more than a gimmick just the same way they marketed the Soli Radar system on Pixel 4XL. I'm not hating on the he pixel 6 phones rather I'm just disappointed in it cos I had high expectations for it. Maybe the next generation of Tensor chip will win me over but definitely not this one. Still a pixel lover though

Disappointed in a phone you haven't had the chance to use Lmao nawa

dessz:
You go carry oneplus 7 pro + cash?

Oh sorry my gee, but no.

seankafor:
how can I possibly do the upgrade myself?

I for advise you not to do it yourself. Give it to someone to do it for you.

The process can be time consuming and frustrating.

You need to following.

Odin. (Latest version)
Samsung drivers
The firmware you want to install.

Find those three and use YouTube. You'll be able to do it by yourself.

By the way, firmware is a bit tricky to find. And it will take like 4GB of data to download. And you may have to do it multiple times till you find the correct one.

Check sammobile for firmwares. Ridiculously slow download speed unless you register with them.

Available!!

Betnomore:
Its obvious you're pained and bitter. To understand simple English na big problem for you. Why hating on me using a old pixel device? Which one u dey use?

Pixel na my secondary device. Not my main. My main go buy 2 of your 4xl with spare change. English Teacher lmao.

Xbolar777:
Please can any one tell me solution to my A30 Problem, the screen is always flicking when I reduce the brightness to the lowest level or when I press the power button

That screen is About to go. Sell the phone asap.

seankafor:
hello I just bought the usa Samsung note 10+ SM-N970U

Its been smooth but it seem it can't be upgraded past android 9 It came with?

Any method I can do that manually?

Although i don't mind using it as it is BC it's really smart and slick and it's the Snapdragon version

I bought it brand new by the way

You can do the upgrade yourself. Or you can ask someone to help you. Look for Lumide333 or so here on Nairaland. He is at Ikeja. Upgrading your software is 5k max.

Betnomore:
It's obvious you know little to nothing about the phone. It's only Dave2d that said d truth about the pixel 6 and 6 pro. All other YouTubers were just sugar coating their reviews.

Wetin me and you dey drag abeg? Choke on reviews all your want. Wetin be my own? You asked a question about a chip and I asked you to go to Google and do your research and you're hearing mouthing rubbish? With the old pixels you dey use? Lmfao. Pixel 2 and pixel 4xl Really? Baba rest. Dave2d Ko, Davido ni.

Betnomore:
I've been a pixel fan ever since the first time I used a Pixel 2xl and still rocking a 4XL presently but I'm still not convinced with Google's tensor chip. Why have a custom chip when it can't perform basic custom features. Qualcomm's high end Snapdragon chip will easily perform all the functions in the Pixel 6 and 6 pro. With the Tensor chip, we are not getting at least 5 years of software update compared to the iPhones. Regarding security, it's not as secured as Apple's iCloud security feature of not being able to wipe the phone clean without the password. Battery life is not stellar. I'm yet to actually see what the Tensor chip does that a high end Snapdragon chip can't do. With this tensor chip, I was expecting a lot more knowong what the previous pixel devices could achieve without a custom chip. Photos and videos should be killing the competition right now but it's not. I just feel there is nothing special in Tensor chip. The question now is WHAT DOES TENSOR CHIP DO?

Google and youtube will help you answer this sir.

Another day for inglorious mentally delayed beings to ask that she will be found with a man
The world does not revolve around your limp schlong Junior.

Watch them come around and start saying rubbish they don't know.

Damnnn niggar

The baby girl is going to return home safely

I wanted to just rush and conclude that she is receiving that nutrient from a fertile rod....

But my mind was telling me to read the story first....after reading the story....I realised this is not a case of receiving a fertile rod

It is always good to read...real niggarrrrs read anyday anytime twice on Monday

But when they posted one the other time with the girl with rings, you quickly concluded she went to man house abi? That weed dey really disturb you.

Repairguru:
that was same thing you told the person that answered you the other time. Pls always find out the price of Samsung parts before you buy the phones . You have money to buy sophisticated gadgets but don’t have money to fix them and you say people are ripping you off.

One of your guys said I should bring 38k to change screen of A20. I ended up spending 25k. That's for a job of less than 5 minutes tops. I'm not saying don't charge people. Far from it. But just because you know it's Samsung doesn't mean you should start calling mad prices in the name of "Samsung screens are expensive".

You will collect big money to change screen one
Day and the screen go blank. Gbese go come cos customer no go hear story. No worry. Continue.

I'm wrong and you're right sir.

Tsufyaan:
Are you serious? Which phone was that boss? Anyway 205k is a good price and I will only be available tomorrow boss.
