Just a heads up for any who's looking. I've just received a 32gb black S6 that I bought from a german seller on ebay (their listing came up on a search on ebay.co.uk).

Anyway, the phone was advertised as "As New" (Wie neu) and unlocked. The phone is in completely mint condition. The only thing is it has no headphones (no problem as I just bought some xiaomi pistons last week). Apart from that, the purchase was indistinguishable from a completely new phone.

All in, including delivery, was £411. It also has the Sony camera sensor.

Anyway, the seller is called flip4shop, and has 158,769 positive ratings.

Might be an option for someone looking an s6.

I debloated my device

- Freezed all the samsung apps (Push, Cloud, sHealth etc)
- Changed Locating method to Wi-fi and network
- Change app theme to dark.

I can't run down the battery during a normal work day. I get home with around 40% left and that with 2 hours of streaming Spotify over bluetooth.

I've now upped my screen to max active brightness, as I just aren't using enough battery.

But I also use Adaway and Greenify (requires root) which also help battery.

One major thing I forgot to mention thats bound to have improved my battery life is I have switched off LTE.

The LTE signal on the S6 is shocking, at home and work I just managed to hang on to 1 bar LTE signal, some times even zero bars. But switching to H+ only I get almost full reception. I found that full reception of H+ is faster than flakey LTE.
 
The screens are supposed to be pretty shoddy, mine is alright, but i recall seeing posts of people returning 5 phones before the tint isnt there.
 
Yeah that's what I read on the XDA forums also

Mine wasn't good so voda are exchanging it me tomorrow - Not sure what I should do if I get another one with a poor screen

Maybe more people notice it than others - I noticed it when browsing on a white page - The top half of my display had a pink tint

Or maybe our displays are fine.

I can see a slight pink hue in your screen shots mostly to right(top) , but I can't see anything like that on my display.
 
How do you go about unlocking it, when its on the lock screen but showing notifications etc when it shows a padlock in the middle at the bottom when using fingerprint unlock.

It looks like i have to swipe the lock but then the screen goes off so unlock it as normal.


Am I being old
