Iron and firmware

Why doesn't the PDA buttons in Odin, Bootloader, Modem ...?

What if the phone is heated?

All electrical products are heated during operation. Electrical parts are used to operate the current and therefore heat. The greater the current consumption for the operation of some functions of the phone, the stronger will be heating.
The phone can be heated for several reasons:
1. Functions are used that consume a lot of current.
2. Malfunction in a mobile phone.
3. Heating of the phone is a normal phenomenon, since it is highlighted in the operation of electrical devices, therefore, Samsung always tests and checks the temperature of the product during its operation.
However, if any functions are not used, and the phone is heated, then you need to contact the service center for repair.

1. Slide the screen with two fingers
2. Go to the Hospitage page
3. Touch the shutdown button

8. Configure Samsung Pay to pay the phone

Samsung Pay. - The best service from Samsung in recent years. It allows you to pay for the phone purchases right in stores (with the exception of those who do not have SAMSUNG pay and Apple Pay support). All you need - lean your phone to the place where you usually use the map.

1. Open Samsung Pay applications
2. Enter your SAMSUNG account

1. Open the settings
2. Select "Battery"
3. Go to "Battery Conservation Mode"
4. Turn it on

There is also a simpler version of this mode, which simply reduces the brightness of the screen.

11. Learn to use the features of Android Marshmallow

Samsung Galaxy S7 is running the new Android Marshmallow 6.0. For many, this version of the program is the first experience with Android. The only difference between Marshmallow from Android Lollipop 5.0 - "Google Now on Tap". This is a completely new way of searching on the phone, if you are deposited in its environment, it can drastically change your Google style.

1. Hold and hold the "Home" button until white lines appear on the screens sides

On the forums you will find an answer to any question of interest: from firmware and updates to problems with hardware parts of the phone. The forum is the best place to better learn your phone.

SAMSUNG GALAXY A7 2017 - This is a top representative of the popular line of the South Korean electronics manufacturer. The SAMSUNG series A from Samsung itself is very successful. And all because the manufacturer managed to convince users that good smartphone - This is not about gigarets and megapixels. The main thing is that it is high-quality, pleasant to use and not buggy. In the 2017 lineup added moisture protection, the design was pulled out, in general, it became very good.

Equipment

I got a device for the test without a set. In general, without everything - only the tube. However, I ranked information on the Internet (thanks to the official video of the DNS store) And this is what the domestic users are expected in the box:

• uSB Cable Type-C
• adapter with USB Type-C on Micro USB
• charger with current power on output 2a with support for quick charging Samsung Adaptive Fast Charge
• wired headset
• supporting documentation

Adapter is needed for one function. To connect a new device to the old one (perhaps, just with the Micro USB connector) and transfer all the information on the cable painlessly. Device allows you to do it in the stage primary setting.

Design

The novelty housing has become completely streamlined. There is no acute angle, everywhere smooth, rounded lines and transitions. This is not good, and not bad. Just a fact. Each new generation must have some kind of designer highlight, it happened this time.

On the ends, we have a metal side, the front-hand glass Corning Gorilla Glass 4, the back also glass, though, is reliably unknown, which one.

I especially liked that 2.5D-glass is very rounded and rests immediately into the metal case. There is no plastic side, everything is perfectly adjusted to each other and it feels great when you take a smartphone in your hand.

The surface with a oleophobic coating, but still very quickly collects all fat traces of fingers. This is especially critical for the rear. Such is the payroll for glossy and playing by sunny bunny housing.

Before the wiring

I liked that the camera lens rolled over to the main surface, now he does not drench. On the contrary, even slightly concave inside.

In general, from behind we have a desert - a small chamber eye, near a mono-block flash and a slightly name of the manufacturer. Perhaps it is stylish and concise, but, as for me, it looks robust. A device for $ 500 lacks some kind of raisin.

In general, the smartphone looks much better. And by the way, if you take, then only the black option. In this coloring, the smartphone looks simply elegant. It is especially pleasant that the inscription "Samsung" on the front panel is practically not visible, and in addition, in the off state, the frequency screen border is merged with the case and together with the function of Always On Display, it just looks just a fiery!

Of the other available colors there are light blue and golden. We look at how it looks, we agree with me about the black colors.

In nature, the pink version is also found, but it is not planned to be sold.

In the design personally, I am a little embarrassed by two points: the weight and thickness of the housing. The smartphone seems to be thin, but if you compare it with competitors (I had an iPhone 6 Plus and), it feels that in the hands there is such an impressive grude.

In addition, the device is sufficiently heavy. Do not say that it is critical. You quickly get used to it and you do not notice any passionism, however, if you start to compare, then ... well, you understood.

On the other hand, the buyers are A7 know what they go. They need a smartphone with a large screen, and this is fraught with an increase in dimensions and any of what compactness cannot go and speech. Sorry!

	Length	Width	Thickness	Weight
SAMSUNG GALAXY A7 (2017, screen 5.7 '')	156,8	77,6
iPhone 6S Plus (5.5 '')	158,2	77,9
Sony Xperia XA1 ULTRA (6 '')
Huawei P10 Plus (5.5 '')	153,5	74,2	6,98

On the other hand, look at the dimensions of the direct competitor in the face of the iPhone 6S Plus. There is a less screen (5.5 inches), and the size of the housing is greater (longer, wider, harder). So we draw conclusions.

Volume adjustment buttons are located on the left end. The right-handers will initially be somewhat unusual.

From an interesting: SIM card slot is divided into two independent parts. One tray under Nano "SIM card" and a memory card is on top, the second (only for Nano SIM-card) mounted the place on the left face.

The design is original, but the user does not have to choose between the second SIM card and an increase in the built-in memory. This is a great benefit!

The external speaker is located here in an even more original place. It is on the right edge above the power button.

And if the smartphone lies on the table or you hold it with one hand vertically, then there are no problems. However, you wanted to see the cinema directly from the phone, turned the machine and hold it with two hands. So the index finger is stacked exactly on the opening of the speaker, thus, the sound is drunk. You have to look for a less comfortable capture option.

The speaker on the quality of reproduction average is quite a lot on the market of devices that play better A7, but even more less high-quality speakers. In terms of volume, too, no revelation. I would even say the speaker is weak, the volume level is below the middle "at the hospital." There is nothing worth a noisy street to skip the call.

The touch keys are located on the housing next to the physical button "Home", have a clear, bright illumination of the moon color. It is impossible to set up her time or intensity, but sorry, for it is very short. Hit the additional functionality or change the keys to the beds is also prohibited, however, how to activate the vibrootklik clock when you click on them. Getting used to what is, or put additional, third-party software.

There is a control mode of one hand. Enabled in the menu, you need to press the "Home" button three times. Not very convenient, but get used to it.

I liked it that you can quickly run the camera at any time - just press the "Home" key twice and after a second the viewfinder is ready to shoot. This is important, because street plots evaporate very quickly.

One of the key chips of the updated line A is the presence of protection against moisture and dust according to the IP68 standard. He implies swimming with a smartphone in fresh water At a depth of 1.5 meters and for 30 minutes.

Despite the fact that the connectors are not externally protected, they are still not afraid of moisture. However, I still would not recommend using headphones or connect the USB-C cable immediately after water procedures. It is better to wait a couple of hours while the smartphone is finally dried.

The fingerprint scanner

The sensor is embedded directly to the "Home" button. She's hardware here (you need to click). Nevertheless, to unlock the device you just need to touch your finger - the sensor is always on a straight and ready to count the imprint.

It is extremely negative about the devices, to unlock which you need to click on the button, and not just touch. After all, it is uncomfortable! Why don't manufacturers understand this?

For me, the reference dactyloscopic sensor is installed in /. The speed of reading the imprint and unlocking smartphone is shrinking. Something around 0.2 or even 0.1 seconds. In addition, the finger can be applied with absolutely any side, carelessly and not accurately - everything is recognized correctly.

Galaxy A7 sensor is not as fast and accurate. Yes, it is not read not bad, but rather often the system reports the impossibility of recognizing the imprint. You need to make a finger again, more neatly and as can be centered. Careless smartphone does not forgive. However, if you moved to A7 from the same iPhone 6, then for you the work of the scanner will seem fantastic. Everything is relative.

Of course, the scanner has an additional functionality. For example, you can configure the payment of Samsung Pay (I will tell you separately) or establish authorization to sites by imprint. Bundles from logins and passwords will immediately be introduced into the right forms, just attach a finger to the scanner. It is very convenient, but it works only through the built-in browser. Chrome does not support this feature, I use it yourself (cross-platform taxes!), So this functionality is not useful for me.

Locking individual applications imprint is possible only through the PIN code and "secure folder". I will tell about it in the section of software chips.

Display

Gorgeous, large, juicy super amoled screen. In principle, this is all that you need to know about this fairly important smartphone knot.

Is it worth mentioning about the Always ON DISPLAY function. This is really a useful chip, which would be worth it to be adjacent to the rest of the manufacturers. The bottom line is that you can configure the desired information on the screen: time, date, notification icons, calendar and even some kind of cute drawing on the background.

The screen in this case never goes out, consumes negligible energy. After all, we are dealing with an amoled matrix, whose pixels do not display black. If you install a black and white font, then power consumption will be even less.

Most of the "amoles" sin to the overestimated contrast and the oversaturation of the colors. So it was almost always and really high-quality screens (without these "children's" diseases) began to appear in Samsung devices starting with Galaxy S6. Now the colors looked around, "green" practically sued no, the screen under the extremal viewing corners stopped overflowing with all the colors of the rainbow. We look at how it looks like an example of comparison with (in the photo it is from below or right).

As you can see, we have two most excellent screens. However, in my opinion, 1 + 3T a bit ahead thanks to a slightly more pleasant color reproduction. It is not possible to notice it immediately, and only with direct comparison.

The oleophobic coating is also a qualitative appropriate to the flagship device. The stock of the brightness is that in the dark when the highlight is twisted, I think you can go blind. From here we see and excellent screen behavior in the sun.

In general, everything is fine with the display! Samsung gave here even more than I expected. Still, we disassemble not the flagship, you never know what.

Specifications SAMSUNG GALAXY A7 (2017) model SM-A720F

It happens that the updated model of its popular smartphone is released by adding / improving two or three functions. Everything else remains unchanged, and the end user is confused - to take an updated device or save and get about the same thing in the old "body".

So, in the case of the Galaxy A7 of 2017, the release is completely different. There are a lot of changes and, I think the question of choice is simply not worth it. We look at all-all specifications of the updated device in comparison with its predecessor.

And the battery is more comprehensive, and the processor is faster, and the display is more interesting - improvements so much that if you ask the choice of choice, then buy, and therefore it is experimenting.

A little more about a new exynos processor 7,7880. In the internal line of the manufacturer, this "stone" stands in third place after the top exynos 9 (8895), which will be installed in Galaxy S8, as well as after Exynos 8 (8890), which is used in relevant yet More flagships of the company (and S7 EDGE).

This chipset was built on the basis of the 14-nm technical process (previous - 28 nm), it consumes 36 percent less energy than the previous generation, while maintaining the same level of performance.

In addition, the system on the chip includes a new modem with support for LTA Cat. 7, therefore, we can expect the data transfer rate to download within 300 Mbps, and to download up to 100 Mbps. And the updated modem supports much more frequencies, therefore, there will be no problems in roaming with a rapid connection.

The new "stone" implies the updated graphics component. The Mali-T830 mp3 video screen supports the decoding of the H.265 codec (4K video at 30 frames / s), processing huge images (up to 21.7 MP) and so on.

Performance

Testing Samsung Galaxy A7 (2017)I caught myself thinking that I was completely uninteresting that the smartphone was "under the hood". What is his processor there, what a video screen and how much the RAM is installed.

The experience of communicating with this device is similar to how we use and choose the iPhone. Purely consumer attitude in the type "To all worked as it should be, without straining and brakes." I will explain on the example.

Most of the owners of the smartphone know what inside the chipset, how many "RAM" and which generation it is. Moreover, all these people chose this device, exclusively due to the top, productive "hardware".

And here you are contrast. 90 percent of the iPhone 6 / 6S / 7 owners have no idea what frequency the processor installed inside is running. No, someone once heard that they might inside had some powerful chipset, one of the latter seems to be, but on this all knowledge ends. People use and do not blow at the mustache, how much free "RAM" is currently there.

So, with our South Korean guest, everything is the same. The smartphone works great, copes with all the tasks for all a hundred, not buggy, does not slow down and does not give any reason, doubt its relevance at the moment.

You bought it, set up and forgot about all the nuances for the year and a half, before the revision of the Galaxy A7 2018 revision or even 2019th year. That is how it is necessary to take this smartphone.

Nevertheless, I can not do not spend some, standard tests. We make the most sensitive and detailed reviews that the future owner know and warned about all the nuances. Therefore, drove to play, test Antutu and so on.

Assassin`s Creed Identity does not lag, occasionally, in heavy scenes and with fast turns of the camera visible to the chamber, but for the most part there are no.

In World of Tanks Blitz, the situation is as follows. At the maximum graphics settings, everything is not too riddling. Frame frequency jumps within 18-25 fps, no more. Set the parameters to the average indicators, reboot the game and calmly play at a frequency of 50-60 frames per second.

Now it concerns the playback of 4K video. And then everything is more than wonderful. Even the same, the written H.265 smartphone took, smiled and did not blink even the eye.

Photo and video features

Another parameter for which the A7 of the current year on the head is above its predecessor. Frontalki had 5, and 16 megapixels became! Normal change, what do you think?

Snapshots are very decent quality: detailed, without exposure errors, without any focus with the shades of the skin and other crime. Of course, nowhere without the "Beauty" mode. On the left photo made with leather leveling (level 2 of 8), on the right, the original frame.

Since we are dealing with the Asian manufacturer, then there is an additional functionality: you can narrow the face and make a bigger eye. Oh…

The resolution of the rear photosensor has not grown so much - from 13 to 16 meters. Anyway ten.

However, what do we get in terms of quality pictures? One of the best middle peasants (yes, A7 is considered a model of the average price segment, closer to the highest). Another characteristic - the photo quality is at the level of flagships 2014-2015. And this, in my opinion, is a very worthy result.

Of course, if you need the most implanted camera in the smartphone, then this is not to A7. Look away or even S6 /. These characters in terms of photo are still haw! Xiaomi Despite all his successes still can not reach them - before the tops of 2015, for a minute.

Regular photo

Food mode

Nevertheless, from the point of view of the modern smartphone of the middle hand with all the most last frills, the camera offers good, confident quality.

HDR included

FINALLY SAMSUNG refused a million pre-installed modes and left the most necessary: \u200b\u200bHDR (without AUTO mode), panoramas, delicious food (really peeled at Huawei?!), Night and manual. You can download another Gif-Maker, but it is already at will.

In the settings provided one simple, but very useful feature - a floating shutter button of the shutter. The user itself decides, in which location of the screen to place an additional button for shooting. No need to reach on one single, closer to the bottom edge. And it is convenient!

In terms of video, we have nothing unusual - Full HD rollers recording with a frequency of 30 frames / s. The quality is completely ordinary, without explicitly stop on this function.

I am sure that the device could easily write and ultra HD videos, but, apparently, the developers deliberately cut this feature.

Video from "Frontali", by the way, is impressive anymore. The same recording parameters, but still this sensor intended for some other things than the rear camera.

Software chips

Every year the Samsung software shell becomes better, more functional, but it is more logical and minimal. I'll tell you about what I liked.

First, the appearance can be configured to your taste. There is an online catalog wherever you can download covers for your interface for every taste. The community there is world, there are a lot of options, and there is a fairly large selection of good, stylish options.

Secondly, the system is very smart. She herself monitors the activity of all applications and processes in the background. From the settings, go to the "Optimization" item, where all this business can be twisted in detail, customize the operation of programs and so on. Many shells have such an opportunity, but in our case this case is presented somehow more clearly. Almost also good, like Emui from Huawei.

And yet the system is not so smart to work and optimize everything yourself. From time to time it will have to climb on the menu and delete unnecessary cache of files, and even in a couple of weeks I have accumulated decently.

The third and most cool! Samsung smartphones are one of the most advanced security systems. For this case, the KNOX platform is responsible. This is a mixture of hardware and software, which is sensitive to the state of "iron" and the operating system, and also has a physical storage where you can put personal information. DOSUTY TO NOTE Even at the operating system itself - the user's input is carried out only through the PIN input. Through the same KNOX platform.

There is another useful feature - "Protected Folder". You can throw any different applications, images and files and access to them only through Pin`a. Even the imprint does not work here. There will be no screenshots here, for they cannot be done in this mode.

In general, the "protected folder" is like a device in the device. Here there is your Google Play Market, where you can enter more than one account Gmail and install separate applications from under it. Thus, it is possible to get in one smartphone, for example, two Whatsapp: one will be available in normal mode, the other only in protected.

There is another way - just copy the application from the main phone memory. In both copies, the same account will be saved, however, if you delete the utility from the main memory, previously transferred to the "protected folder" copy, will remain. I hope the principle of work is understandable.

I also liked the fact that there is practically no program debris as it were, as it were, "as a gift" from the manufacturer. There is a complete package of office applications from Microsoft, but these utilities will definitely not be unnecessary.

I can not say anything negative in terms of software. And not because somehow a pray is a shell from Samsung, just nothing criminal or so really did not find.

Samsung Pay.

I am delighted with this chip. While tested the device, paid everything throughout the phone.

Moreover, you can even pay where you do not accept Wireless payment cards (Visa Paywave and MasterCard Paypass) and all thanks to the MAST (Magnetic Secure Transmission) technology, which will curtail the magnetic field, and the payment terminal recognizes this case as a magnetic band of physical cards.

There is no one from the competitors yet, so Samsung is here ahead of the planet all.

check in bank card It passes very quickly and simple. I set up a card while I went from the car to the grocery store, and it was a distance of about 100 meters. To successfully pass the verification, it is necessary that the Bank worked with the Samsung Pay system and the card supported such a function. I have a "Siberian" card from the stone age (not wireless), and therefore it does not catch up with the system. But with "Alpha" everything went without a hitch.

Before paying, you need to pull out the screen with the bottom edge of the screen sticking a piece of your virtual plastic and touch the fingerprint scanner. Next, bring the smartphone to the terminal and voila - here it is magic!

The thing is very infectious, I want to pay and use always and everywhere!

Battery life

The device received a battery for 3,600 mAh. This is not a very big battery, given the thickness (7.9 mm) and a huge screen (the more the physical area of \u200b\u200bthe device, the more space inside). However, Samsung developers receive a salary not just like that. Optimization of power consumption here at the highest level.

Hence the result - the smartphone can safely work two full days when set by one SIM card and enough moderate operation (constant background notifications, synchronization, surfing sites, social networks, 2-3 hours of screen glow).

If you drive a smartphone and in the tail, and in the mane, constantly sit on the Internet, download something, watch online video, then the capacity of the capacity is enough for one full day - from the morning, until late evening. And the screen running time will pick up on top of 5 o'clock.

I want to notice that I did not use any energy saving modes. There are a lot of them here, with proper configuration, the life of the device can be extended.

In general, the device in terms of autonomy did not let down. You can not even carry a portable battery with you.

Regarding a quick charging, I can not say anything, since I had no complete charger on testing, no power cable. Charged a smartphone with a regular charger. However, by responding to the network, the full cycle of quick charging (Samsung Adaptive Fast Chargening) takes about one and a half hours. When it is disconnected from the settings, the smartphone is charging in 2.5 hours.

Sound quality

Unfortunately, the smartphone is devoid of a normal player to play music. There is only Google utility with an obsessive subscription to their music. She, of course, also knows how to play audio, however, not all the necessary formats, there is no at least any detailed playback settings. Sorrow.

Nevertheless, this arrangement with Google can be bypassed. Open the application directory of applications (Galaxy Apps) and among the recommended utilities almost first we celebrate Samsung music. This is a standard song for playing songs.

However, MP3 files are reproduced without problems. The sound quality through headphones does not affect the imagination, is at the level of most modern smartphones, it does not matter how many worthwhile: from 100 to 600 dollars. Even with the branded improvement of UHQ Upscaler tangible changes, I did not notice. In general, most users will arrange this, music lovers, I think, not very.

Outcome

Actual price samsung Galaxy A7 (2017) It is 32,990 rubles now. For my taste, it's slightly expensive. That would be 29,990 rubles - another thing. However, this is only my opinion.

On the other hand, the gadget is completely fresh. From the famous brand. All of myself is as high quality, beautiful, modern and full-fledged support for Samsung Pay. And how did you want? Buy a quality thing for three kopecks? Is there a good English (English, because?) The saying: "We are not so rich people to buy cheap things." This is exactly the Samsung Galaxy A7 revision of this year.

I would definitely recommended the device to residents of a megapolis, which is not good, what is characterized by HELIO X27 from Snapdragon 653, why preferably "standing" standard UFS 2.1 and other game. Those who are tired of the infinite Zasil "Iphona" wants to get a high-quality, modern gadget here and now to with a guarantee to be without any problems. Well, of course, to change it did not have earlier than in a year and a half.

An additional bonus will be protected from water according to IP68 standard. It is really great, because with a smartphone you can safely lie in the bath after a hard working day. Well, isn't Charm?!

All of them mean one - the process of harsh dropping settings, after unsuccessful attempts to make this more gentle ways.

It is for this reason that all the files you need need to be transferred to discs in advance, flash drives, a SD card or another place. This operation is free, spacious, and what is very important, reliable.
