        Lol, u guys using marshmallow, and i have Pie on my SM-G800F.
        Its old phone, so warranty is probably void for all of u guys.
        Just take a look on XDA and search for LineageOS 16. And u can get pie update. ;)

There were a few other changes listed, e.g. new kernel, security etc versions. I've certainly sensed things have been significantly clunkier since applying the update. Not enough to be able to prove a connection, but suspicious.

The "Doze" deep sleep function is very effecti... moreFor anyone else struggling with the buggy auto-brightness on this phone, the fix is simple! This is what I shared on my review website about the issue:

                                      "I've diagnosed the problem with the auto-brightness, which was not resolved in the long-awaited Marshmallow update. Very little chance, from what I gather, of any bug report making it to anyone useful at Samsung, but I'll explain a little here in the hope it might help anyone else having trouble with the display appearing too dim or even dead upon waking. In short it looks like it's a bug with the "super brightness" that is engaged when the ambient light is very high, typically direct sunlight, which is why the problem only ever manifests on bright sunny days. It seems that if "super brightness" is required immediately upon waking (i.e. at the lockscreen) the basic brightness is never set from zero, and the screen appears very dark or even non-functional. The work-around is very simple, though. If the screen does not wake and the ambient light is bright, suggesting this might be the cause of the issue, immediately place your finger over the ambient light sensor (next to the earpiece speaker) and a couple of seconds later the display should activate, and you can carry on as usual. Hope this advice saves some frustration or wasted trips to the repair shop."
