[Q] Anyone getting high CPU load when watching Youtube? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

I love this phone right now, but it does have a few issues (atleast my current device). I'll post up the other issues in a thread after.
But I noticed my GS7 getting pretty warm while watching a live steaming video using the Youtube app. Now, I came from a GS6, but it never got this warm while watching a live steaming video. Here's some interesting numbers between the two:
CPU Load while watching Youtube (screenshot below):
GS7 = 10-20% (15% avg) @ 100°F
GS6 = around 5% avg.

So I wanted to see if its just me or if others are experiencing this. I have the T-Mobile US version (so Qualcomm 820). I have to send this device to Samsung in a few days though because of screen issues (top 1/3 of the screen is slightly more greyish/greyish-pink/slightly dimmer than the rest of the screen below. Plus it has slight "black crush". You can check this with the Greyscale screen test (Dark order tests portion) in the AnTuTu app. But my GS6 that I still have with me currently does a bit better in the Greyscale test than the GS7.

Hmm mine does too

Got 750 back (screen quality)

I use to own Palm version of Treo 750 couple of months ago. When I loved device functionality and form factor I couldn't stand it's pale, horrible screen. Couple of days ago I've came across Vodafone version. Asked guy at the store to turn it on just for jokes. To my surprise screen on that unit good as good as screen on HTC Trinity! I was sold! I really wonder if they silently start placing better screen in Treos. Anyone with similar experience?

This is old one
Your backlight was turned off. Just from looking at the screenshot you have, it looks like your backlight was set to very low.

It might. I don't remember condition that I took previous pictures in. But I am pretty sure that colors on the new unit are more vibrant with better contrast.

[Q] Is this normal?

I'm rooted with the GB 2.3.3 update and stock battery with Juicedefender and Setcpu installed. Battery life has definitely made a difference over Froyo and I'm pretty satisfied with the fewer trips to the wall-charger. However, I was wondering why the camera and gallery takes up 46% of my battery I haven't used the camera and I've tried restarting it the phone, but they still persist in the battery list. Anyone with a similar issue?
I don't see an issue. That doesn't mean the camera is still running. It just means you havn't really used your phone for anything. With the power saving settings you have, and the fact that you hardly used the phone in two days, you could have used the camera for 3 minutes and probably would have counted for 20 %
You don't wanna know where this was sent from.
I thought about that too. I did put the phone into airplane mode over-night and also used it to play music with the screen off for a couple of hours, which it why the levels might indicate like I hardly used the phone. But that's the mystery, I never used the camera, at all over the past 2 days.

[Q] Weird red/blue/green faded areas on screen on black background (not dead pixels)

Hey everyone! I have a bit of an issue with my nexus 5. Recently a small area (about .5cm by .5cm) has had a faded red circle with two slightly smaller faded circles (one green and one blue) beside it appear on any black/dark background. Its definitely a hardware issue, as I've tested for the problem with several different apps/pictures. It doesn't make the phone unusable, but it is very annoying when viewing a dark image or video. Similar red areas are present in the lower left corner of my n7 2013 but they are very dim and I hardly ever notice them. They look like this:

}
I can get a better picture if necessary, but this is pretty much what it looks like.
I tried searching for others with the problem, but all I could find were hundreds of posts about dead pixels. Does anyone know what this is? Is there anything I can do short of buying a new LCD? Thanks.

Ink Spots/Black Dots Common Display Problem. Plz check your S7 Device

Hey folks
Anyone else having some black dots/ink spots on their brand new Galaxy S7? I recognize this issue while watching movies on my phone at night...
This problem already exist on older AMOLED Display like the S3(old XDA thread-> http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help/galaxy-s3-black-ink-spots-help-t1715936/page4)
, but was solved after this generation. Sadly they seem to be back now!
Can you plz test your device and giving some feedback, if i just got bad luck or is it a common issue again.
Use following setup to test it:
- use the uploaded "grey" pic or any super dark/grey picture
- be in a dark room. you cant check it at daylight
- set display brightness to manual and get set it to minimum brightness
I'll also will upload a picture to show you how it looks on my phone. But be aware that this dot is arranged with paint, since none of my cams can capture this issue. Anyway position and size are correct.
