Samsung Galaxy S8

[Brawler]

Dude! Not just phone covers, but Screen Protectors to!

I remember when I got my Note 4 I could get damn good high quality covers for around R450, and a good protector for like R150.

I got the shock of my life with the S7 and S8 range, where covers are like +R600 and protectors for about the same. In actual fact, I see Takealot is discounting a lot of S8 stuff now.

I'm guessing this is the cover you got, yikes that is steap! LOL!

Yeah that's it. Got it at Samsung store for 649. Phone feels amazing in it and fits the phone better than all the rest.
All the others were also not that much cheaper.

I remember a clear slim bodyglove case for iPhone 6s was 250. Now they are 450.

597MB update available on Vodacom.

I'm going to hope the reason the iPhone Wi-Fi calling is offline is because they were busy testing the S8 and this update is it, but more than likely not.

Edit: The option to enable Wi-Fi calling was added but as far as I'm aware it's offline for the whole Vodacom, once it's back online we are good to go.

Non branded XFA/XFE has a 750.44mb update available....

Hopefully this will solve the issue with Cellc LTE-A not displaying.

What did the change note say?

Also really impressed with how fast the local SPs are releasing these updates.

Same exact thing and then the Vodacom Wi-Fi calling but that wasn't in the notes.

Camera and wireless charging stability I think was the wording.

Well I have a Vodacom S8 which I flashed non branded XFA to and it has the update available. So I expect you to get it latest tomorrow.

Yeah same thing so will see what is different. Want to see if Cellc finally displays 4G+ now.

Once the Wi-Fi calling works this will be my perfect phone, can't think of a thing I'd change.

what app am I looking at here?

When I am connected to wifi, the 4G icon gets replaced by the WiFi icon and the Vo))LTE icon remains.
When I am not connected to wifi, the WiFi icon gets replaced by the 4G icon and the Vo))LTE icon remains.

Not sure I can see that Vo))LTE icon on your screen......

 

[Piesang]

There's no voLTE icon.
Thats why I'm a bit confused.

As stated in my above post i can make phone calls with wifi on.
As soon as i switch off wifi phone returns to Lte mode.

Also wifi calling is enabled in phone settings and "sticks "(does not turn of unless i turn it off.

Further if i switch wifi calling off in phone settings, everything returns to normal.

Hmmm, strange.

Do you have a CW AP active? What happens if you default to the Vodacom one, same result?
