Works fine for me.

I did the below

1. Uninstalled all updates to Google app

2. Cleared all data and cache of Google app

3. In the tweak.prop set the model to Pixel XL

4. Reboot to recovery and flashed the 2 zips to install the given Google app and make build prop changes

5. After reboot cleared data in Google app again

6. Set up Google app and I had Google assistant in settings

Hello guys,

Nexus 5X on Oreo was being a charm to use. Hence I decided to give my Lenovo Z2 Plus to my nephew and use the old guy till some time later (Pixel 2 prices dropping to reasonable levels or me winning a giveaway!!) .

However, my Nexus 5X decided to die on me, while it sat on my desk connected to a charger. I couldn't find any medicines that could bring it back to life. As per reports it seems that it has had a heart attack(big cluster died).

This let me with no option, but to buy something quickly. As my luck would have it, Amazon and Paytm was running one of it's many sales in India at that time. i bought myself a white haired Pixel XL 32 GB, and some transparent clothes for it to show off it's curves.

I plan to use it stock and don't even plan to unlock the boot loader. Tired of doing all of it.

It's arrived at home already, while i am stuck at work :D

Coming to the tablet world. I was in the market for a new tablet as my son's Nexus 7 is just pathetic now. The primary requirements being 7+ inches and availability of a BobJGear case. I finally shortlisted the Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 8.0, 32GB (SM-T713). Its powered by SD 652 and has 3 GB RAM. It should be sufficient for my 5 year old.

Hello old gang how is everyone doing?

I've finally logged back into XDA for the first time in over 1 and a half years, and I'm feeling strong nostalgia with this thread. What is everyone up to these days?

Myself I upgraded my OnePlus One last August to a Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 which I've found is an excellent device for the performance-to-price ratio and has stellar 2 day battery life.

Being part of the Desire S forums feels like a distant fond part of my life, with great memories. I still have my trusty DS to this day, although it's uses are very limited.
[Off-topic] enigmaamit:
Hola amigos!

Hi Oly!

I logged in after ages here too. Felt the same wave of nostalgia crash over me. This was second home to so many of us. It was THE place to hangout. Good old days.

So anyway, what's everyone up to? Is the old gang still on XDA or left for good?

I'm still with my iPhone 6S (3rd year going) and its held up surprisingly well over time. Way better than the HTCs and the Samsungs I've used. However, just for a change, I may swing over to the other side to checkout how android has evolved. Thinking of getting a OnePlus 6 as my test vessel.

This is just a shout into the abyss. Not really expecting a reply, but it'd be dope if the abyss echoed back a holler!

Doc out.

Hello all, it's been a long time

Hi Ben!

It's been ages!

Happy to know that we're on the same phone now. Be seeing you around on the forum boards I guess.

Feels weird as well as nostalgic being back here after two and a half years of living exclusively in the Apple "ecosystem" ;)

---------- Post added at 08:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:16 AM ----------

Hi Harsh.

Had the same phone prior to the switcheroo. I actually still miss a lot of things about the 6S. It's the perfect size, does everything well (within the confines of iOS of course), the camera can still stick it to a lot of 2018 phones despite being 2.5 years old, and the hardware has aged surprisingly well - its still just as it was when i bought it. When I gave it to my wife, she said it felt like a brand new device, unlike laggy, jittery two year old Samsungs that she has used.

Battery life has always been an issue with "smaller" iPhones but I still manage to get by till evening, especially after the recent $29 battery replacement program.

What i miss most, however is the loss of continuity features between my MacBook and my iPhone. That magic is gone - the wife is enjoying that experience now, and by if initial impressions are anything to go by, it appears I have made a very serious mistake. This is going to prove very expensive for future upgrades if she decides to stay inside the walled garden for good. :p

Having said all that, I understand that any change is uncomfortable, and humans always long to find their way back to familiarity. Given a few months, I'm sure I'll be able to appreciate all that the OnePlus (and Android) has to offer. This will give me some time to figure out just how Android has evolved since Lollipop (the last version I used). Fingers crossed.

Rarely come over to XDA forums now as I don't root my Pixel anymore.

Reviving the old thread.

I was using the first generation Pixel XL and it was showing its age with not being able to handle Android Auto, Amazon Music, Navigation, Work Profile (Office 365) and a hotspot at the same time. Stop either one of the above and the phone would run just fine!!

I was really looking forward to buy the Pixel 4XL however, Google decided against launching it in India. After being disappointed and swearing at everyone on Twitter, ai went ahead and purchased an OnePlus 7T.

It's an upgrade in every sense. Screen size (5.7 to 6.55), RAM (4 to 8 GB), storage (32 to 128 GB), processor (821 to 855), single sim to dual sim, crappy haptics to one of the best in haptics(just try typing on one).

Everything just flies on this, and is a pleasure to use.

[Off-topic] enigmaamit:
Sense was a thing of beauty, and it will remain a find memory forever. But those days are gone. Oxygen OS is very functional but in a very bare-bones kind of way. Super fast without the frills, like a race car with everything stripped out to drop weight and increase speed. Samsung OneUI is like a luxury sedan... Plush leather interior, a mini fridge, mood lighting, with air-conditioned seats and more features then you will probably ever need.

It's a joy to sample all the different options out there. Each has its own pros and cons. You have the wildest choices in terms of hardware and software. What a time to be alive!
[Off-topic] orb3000:
Yeah its sad but true, Sense days are gone...

How's Tilapia AOKP going?
[Off-topic] ben_pyett:
Yep, fingers crossed that the new one is a revision 11 not the original 10 like my old one, although it didn't have any issue until its sudden death!

Although I now also take the risk getting a different CPU bin rating, my original was a lowly NOMINAL (although still a beast!), so odds are I should get something better, although I could always end up with worse.....SLOW < NOMINAL << FAST <<< FASTER.

Take what happened to me as a reminder to ensure that you regularly ship all backups and saved config files off of the device onto either your PC or into the cloud.

I know that I'm now regretting not having an up to date nandroid anywhere other than on my brick. My own stupid fault - although a lesson learnt won't let that happen again. Fortunately have cloud saved SMS/MMS and full titanium backups, plus all the important stuff in my google account.

Although could have done with my latest AOKP settings backup file and Nova Prime settings backup file! :(
[Off-topic] olyloh6696:
Congratulations on the purchase!

So you didn't get a free replacement? Your paying for a new one again? :(
[Off-topic] ben_pyett:
No I was fine, they make you purchase the replacement but then don't process your payment, simply reserve the authorized money until they've received the faulty unit back - otherwise you could claim a replacement and get an extra device for free! This should ultimately speed up the process as it means that i can get the replacement before sending back the original.

Well, my uncle just got an iPhone 5 since he was getting it for a good price, so I got his Galaxy S3 :D:D:D The best part is that he didn't use any of the stuff provided, headphones, charger, USB cable or even the back cover (he used an old changer and a cover) so the device is basically brand new. The device itself hasn't been used much either. I just transferred all his music and contacts, and I'll do a factory reset.

The problem is that his Sim card is stuck inside the tray (which seems to be a common issue), so I'll have to take it to a shop to get it out tomorrow. If anyone with an S3 has some advice, please post here :)
