Homescreen icons

I have a S8+, and one thing that really annoys me is how there is about an inch or so at the top of the homescreen that can't be used for icons or widgets. Normally I would put the Google search bar there, but the highest it can go is about an inch off the notification bar at the top. *Really* annoying to have that space and not use it...
I don't really want to replace the launcher (at least not within 2 days of a brand new phone), so is there a way around it? Or do we have to wait until Samsung realises that the screen aspect ratio is slightly longer that a normal phone, and fixes the issue...
While I'm at it, is there a way to change the icon for a folder to use a specific icon (eg. first app in folder), rather than the usual bad looking (to my eyes at least) tiny apps inside the folder look? Otherwise I'm back to using Folder Organizer I guess... I know Nova probably sorts this all out, but it never 100% agreed with me for whatever reason and I always reverted eventually.
Finally, is there a way to get the AOD screen to appear on a clear flip case? Obviously it's being clever by turning off the display when the flip case is closed (magnet thingy embedded in the case), but as the case is clear(ish) then it defeats the point. Nice if there was a switch in options to keep the AOD screen active even if a case is closed on it, but I cannot find it...
Cheers

I never noticed it left that much space… . now it bugs me lol.

Yeah, it leaves a lot of space. Not sure why. You could fit another row of icons easily, but no go currently.

Fair enough. Thought as much. I'll give it a month, see if I reach unheard levels of OCD, and then install Nova if Samsung don't update. Will be about by 10th Nova install, but I always revert eventually. Always something that annoys me with it...
Stupid really, especially as it seems pretty obvious that it's about the right amount of space you gain from the extra length of the S8. Would bet the farm that Samsung forgot the new aspect ratio when it came to this. Honestly, there must be months of testing, and it's hard to believe it was missed.... Unless of course everyone at Samsung just installed Nova... Wouldn't be too surprised...
That AOD issue with the clear flip screen is well annoying though.... Really is a massive pain, especially when you can see right through the case, and even still use the touch screen (useful for answering calls without opening the case). Samsung does an amazing job on the screen, and then their own case has a compatibility issue....
Hmm, just noticed something... First day using while working, and a couple of times while wirelessly charging it has lost the wifi signal. Never (really really rarely) did that with my old Nexus 5. Don't like that considering I clicked on a notification icon on the AOD and it then tells me my network connection isn't available (and then connects before removing the notification so I don't know what it is). That's annoying... Sleep mode or something for wifi? Think I remember something similar years ago... Anyone?
Cheers

Use Nova Launcher and problem solved

@Crivensie, sounds like you're a bit like me. Nothing wrong with high expectations. About Samsung's testing though...I am not sure how thoroughly they test things because I found many bugs on the phone so far and I wasn't even trying. I'm not surprised at all at the issues you're having.

Like in Nova we can lock screen so Icons/widgets do not get delted by mistake
can we do that here in Samsung

Swipe down on Fingerprint for notification shade

I heard that they removed the Swipe down on the fingerprint scanner to bring down the notification shade. This is nearly a deal breaker for me since the phone is so tall. Does anyone know if it's permenantly gone or if it will come back in the next update?

I don't see it in gesture settings may come back in Android P haven't tried beta yet so can't say for sure I'm pleasantly surprised how smaller the actual phone is from seeing on YouTube looked massive for a 6'2" it's actually not bad I can just about reach notification drop down one handed but I have fairly large hands so possibly not so good if have small hands lol

There are plenty of Launchers that support pull down for notifications. The only downside is they have to be on the home screen, but with a phone like this, it's fast enough to do 2 inputs rather than fumbling with 1 hand or reaching with your other. Plus, if it's possible with hardware, I'm sure there will be a custom Rom with that capability.

Prime Day sale convert review (updated 7.24)

Update at bottom.
Couldn't pass up the price! I got the white one, less fingerprint magnet. I'm using it with Straight Talk with Verizon SIM. Here's my impressions after two days of use.
I've used the Moto X Pure for the past year. It was the only unlocked, multi-carrier large screen phone....I like 'em big ... Wait, that came out wrong....?
Update
First thing I did was all the updates, reset, update, reset... Wash rinse, repeat. Like Android likes to do, I couldn't download the last security update till I got on WiFi.... Wouldn't use data via the Moto's hotspot thus I had to go to the library, very rural area, only WiFi around....pita but typical Android not allowing system updates over data! So an uber clean start.
Overall I think the PH-1 is a good device. I haven't had any real negative bugs. The charging icon when off, the espresso cup, never shows fully charged. Otherwise the software seems like any other decent Android device I've used.
Build quality
IMHO ceramic isn't a good material to use. It's far too slippery to place on any surface, and being an insulator not great at removing heat, not to mention potential signal issues. However, my device's fit and finish is excellent, though it'll be the first device I use a case with — I've never broken a screen, knock on wood, in 5+ years. I have to put this in a case so I can set it on surfaces without it running off.
Screen
It's good, though too small imo. I really like the Moto X Pure more. Haven't compared them side by side on a great photo yet but I'm sure the PH-1 is better in that regard. The biggest pain is the text is so much smaller and there isn't a perfect setting for font size + display size, for me, thus I'm adapting to the default.
Camera
I'm not a big photo person. The camera to me does a good job. It took a photo of small print on a charging brick that can't be read. I've tried it with other devices and none could make the text clear but the PH-1 did.
Notch
IMO this notch and 2:1 screen ratio is stupid. However I will say essential did it the best you could. I don't mind it at all, but the reality is it's not a 5.7" screen — you rarely use the notification area (which is much larger), and if you do you get a wonky aspect ratio. IMO anything below 6" screen size needs to stay 16:9 and no notch. It's amazing how much more screen I have with the Moto X Pure.
Performance
Mine has been great. There's the occasional jitter or lag depending on the app but I've seen that on every Android device I've used — haven't used a pixel. FYI I turned off animations. Essential has done a good job keeping the bloatware down and unnecessary background running apps, I really appreciate that! Now if we could get Google to play along!
The PH-1 also does a lot better with ram management than the Moto! The Moto didn't take much before you were reloading the recent app or web page — I honestly don't think it ever used over 2GB of the ram. The Ph-1 IMO does well keeping recent apps/pages from being reloaded.
Fingerprint scanner
Works fast when it works but a lot of double tries. Might need to redo the setup.
Signal
I tested the signal between my two devices and here's what I noticed. The signal dB & dBm range is much greater on the PH-1 than the Moto. The Moto stays pretty steady in my current location which has a very strong Verizon signal. The PH-1 signal varies a lot ±10. It can be significantly lower or higher than the Moto. It seems to really decrease signal in standby, I'm guessing essential is turning down the power to the antenna to increase battery life when in standby which would be smart, and the signal IS AFFECTED BY HOW YOU HOLD IT, thus a case is a smart idea. Nonetheless my speeds are better.
Enhanced LTE
Can't make phone calls if it's enabled.... Most likely due to being on a mvno. And didn't notice any improvement in signal or data with it on.
Hotspot
Seems to be normal.
Speaker
It's loud! Louder than the Moto! There Moto sounds a bit better but not a lot. I'm pretty impressed.
Call quality
Seems the same.
Battery life
Very good. Nearly double the Moto! — I usually get 5hrs SOT browsing, and have had 12hrs SOT reading. I've always been able to get good SOT compared to most users — due to my usage habits. Where this one does so much better is the SoC IMO. I can browse about 2x what I can on the Moto. I'm sure the screen is more efficient also but I've not had enough time to test the two. I'm very pleased thus far.
Right now I'm at 87% battery with 2 hrs 15 minutes SOT! With LTE, location on, some browsing, signal testing, and writing this long winded thing.
Shipped with no charge
My device arrived with no charge, wouldn't even power into the battery charging state for a while.
Charging
First charge was slow! After that it has charged very fast, and doesn't get hot like the Moto.
USB-C to HDMI
Used this tiny converter and it worked!
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B077XFZXXL?psc=1&ref=yo_pop_mb_pd_title
However, while video was properly displayed at 16:9 my landscape of the device was over sized. I had to set the display size to the largest, strangely, to make the screen smaller on the TV but it never was 1:1, always slightly bigger, and I couldn't find an adjustment on the TV for scanning HDMI.... Could be the TV.
No exFat support
A pita. Had to format my Samsung T5 ex ssd. The apps to use exfat (Paragon, mixplorer, etc) weren't good enough, better to reformat IMO if you're going to be using a particular device frequently. The read/wire speed to the T5 isn't super fast, ~100MBps.
I don't use NFC and rarely Bluetooth thus I haven't tested them and don't care.
Straight Talk setup
Of course their customer service insisted I get a new SIM card — you can't use the same SIM because they can only use one IMEI number per SIM. So I ordered a new SIM but tried the old one — data didn't work the first couple tries — the proper apn wasn't being loaded, but third time everything is rocking including the proper TracFone apn but it can't be edited — I don't know if that's Android 8 or what.
Got the Moto command center widget working as well though it loads slow on restart. I love this widget!
Used to use Swype, only keyboard I've used really, trying to get used to Gboard.... Not liking it at all!
Thanks for reading!
UPDATE 7.24.18
GPS, LTE, Wi-Fi, and cellular signal
FYI: using Straight Talk w/Verizon SIM.
Went for a drive into town today, I'm in a very rural area, and had a chance to really put the signal issues to the test.
GPS: no problems whatsoever. Connects faster than any device I've owned. Didn't drop either.
LTE: this device switches bands more than my Moto X Pure. While my Moto would stay on band 4 this will switch between 4 & 13, even in the same location not moving. The Moto has about -10dbm better on band 4, but the PH-1 is same or better on 13. I've read some say they think the big issue of signal with this device is band 4, seems lower for me as well.
I maintained a cellular signal the entire drive, but data dropped out just about the same as the Moto does in the same areas. So, about the same imo. However the data signal on this device was noticeably worse in the grocery store. To the point of not being useable till I found that perfect spot.
Wi-Fi: the grocery stores's WiFi was problematic. Connection showed stable but wouldn't transfer data. Turned off data, turned WiFi back on and worked better for a bit. I've had similar issues with other Android devices and WiFi, my Moto has been the best at WiFi connectivity.
I've had similar issues with every Android device I've owned — some type of connection bug in either WiFi, GPS, or data. So, to be fair the PH-1 isn't alone when it comes to connection issues and I'm sure much of that goes back to Google. All in all I would say signal, depending on available bands, can be a bit lower in general thus those really spotty areas may be non-existent. However, when connected I get much faster data speeds than my Moto.
A further note.... If you have VERY dry hands this thing is ridiculously slick! Not so bad when hands are "normal."
Like every Android device I've used or tested it has its own quarks, nothing to horrible though, at least in my case ?

Good review.
Fwiw I am using the custom nav bar app that hides both the nav and status bar. That combined with setting display setting small and font extra large works pretty decent. I am coming from a Nexus 6 which has a ton of screen space.

Are you talking about Natcho notch?
Sent from my PH-1 using XDA Labs

Essential has a 19:10 screen ratio, not 18.5/9, which brings it closer to a standard width phone. I actually feel like I have quite a bit more screen over the s8 I had before this. I can't wait until you can fill the notch area on android P. The black bar that happens drives me nuts. I'm using the XDA gestures app and a magisk module to hide the nav bar, so at least I gain that space.

The S8 2:1 aspect ratio is to narrow.... I looked at those 2:1 phones compared to my Moto X Pure and I couldn't give up that much screen. I think the PH-1 would have been better at 6" ... But that's me ?
Im not planning on rooting. I get to OCD when I go down that road and waste to much time. So I'll take what I can. But all in all I'm good with the device.

When I ordered I didn't notice the grey was matte. Probably could take fine sandpaper and turn this into matte. Did that with a LG G2 and it worked great, but that was plastic.
Think I'll go with the Incipio dualpro case instead, just for the screen drop protection.

Eventually I"m sure they'll add the setting to go full immersive like they had in oreo under dev settings. I kinda can't wait. That was my favorite thing about running AOSiP and RR, and almost makes me want to go back and just use the gestures app on one of those.

The full immersive mode on Oreo is ok for certain things, but on videos you have to zoom in every single time, not a natural fit thus why I'm a 16:9 fan ?
But that is better than nothing!!!
I really wish Google would have gone all in on gestures AKA Blackberry OS 10. This phone is perfect for that!

Honestly, the gestures are so half baked, that is why I'm using the xda app even though I'm on p. The nav bar still being there means you gain no extra space (they could have at least made it transparent. Tried navbar apps but there is no transparency option), and the back button looks ridiculous.

so I went to best buy this evening to check it out.
unfortunately is was pretty crippled and I could not enable developer options (needed a password), so I couldnt get a full idea of how it looks hidden.
having said that, it really doesnt look as bad as it does in pictures online. however, it is still big.
It is not so visible on home screen if you use a dark wallpaper. Some apps hide it automagically, which keeps the status icons on the top, which is exactly how I wish it would be when hidden. I will probably make a photoshop overlay for wallpapers that will hide the notch with status up high, as I dont really use the live walls or anything like that, though I think devs will figure out a way to do that as well.
Viewing pics and video full screen it (the notch) will bother me very much.
Unfortunately the phone had no internet or cell signal, and of course connectivity settings were not available.
The screen to me is a HUGE improvement over the 2XL it looks fantastic. Even the non-XL was very impressive screen wise. Speakers do indeed sound louder, though I could only play the on-board ringtones etc, which still only preview out of one speaker.
Sadly hard to get a full hands on with it being crippled, but I do feel better about pre-ordering it than I did before I checked it out.

Been using Nacho Notch on my 3xl since I got it on Wednesday. Just turned it off to see if there was any difference in color on a white background. Didn't see a thing. Maybe it will the longer it is used, but my phone screen is pretty much on all night because I leave Netflix running when I fall asleep. I'll learn real quick if it does in fact have burn-in or image retention (OLED screen problem).

I usually watch a show when I go to bed. Half the time I fall asleep and wake up realizing I am a few episodes into a series.
Honestly doesn't bother me much (Well, at least it will until I can get root and install an xposed module that cuts charging off and starts charging again when the battery gets slow, or allow you to change the rate at which the phone charges). I used the module on my Pixel 2 XL and the battery was just as good as it was when I first got it 9 months later. Sadly, can't remember the module name, but it makes the chance of reducing your phones battery charge much smaller and livable with.

Half notch option please!

Why the only two options are full tall notch or no notch at all?
They could add an option to have a notch only for the height of the notification icons instead of awkwardly tall?
I'm sure that would be better than the current two choices.

In play, search for notch hide. There are a couple options that let you manually adjust the height. Notch remover is one of them. It has pretty good reviews too.
I was going to do this exactly before I got my phone. I felt I would like a smaller notch a lot better. After having the phone for seriously like an hour I stopped noticing it. I actually kind of like it now. Anyway, obviously your call. And yes you can do this.

The notch is tall enough that they could have 2 rows of notifications.

Exactly what I was thinking... Could Nacho Notch pull this off? Would be great to have a large digital clock on the right and all other notification icons on the left.

I was thinking this is a pretty obvious thing to go after in the roms. I have stopped noticing the notch right up until I notice all that wasted space around it which still gets my attention every time I run out of notification space. That happens far too often because really; who wouldn't run out of visible notifications with only the pitiful quantity given us? Then I cant help but tip into a mental facepalm seeing all the wasted space surrounding those few notifications. Now all of a sudden I'm noticing the stupidly oversized notch again which didn't have to happen but did because some idiot at Google decided that they were going to go all in and even supersize a hardware choice which almost everyone recognizes as temporary stop gap feature that will go away as soon as embedded tech gets advanced enough to replace it.

This is my first notch phone and I'm surprised at how quickly I've gotten used to it. And that was before the black theme I applied last night which hides it most of the time.
I was actually wishing the icons were a little larger though.
My bad eyes couldn't handle two rows of tiny icons.

I use Nacho Notch. In the settings, set the notification bar height to 130. To complement that, set up top corners rounded with height and width 14 dp. Don't round the bottom corners. You'll see why after a little while if you do.
