[Oppo Find 5] kinghu:
The camera is OK but nothing amazing in my experience which is fine for me and Faux kernel has done wonders my battery life (+30-40%). Not sure the camera can compare to the Xperia.

Despite those niggles, I'd recommend the F5 above others to friends if asked but it depends on your needs. I certainly prefer it over the Note 2 and Nexus 4. For me is the sweet spot between size, screen, performance and design.

What else is on your short list?

-- From my Find 5
[Oppo Find 5] S.D.Richards:
Exactly the switch I made XS->Find5. I thought about getting the HTC One or the S4, but since I planned on running a custom ROM, I didn't want to pay for features I wouldn't use anyway.

Regrets? No. The Find5 has a Sony Sensor as camera, AFAIK the same as in the XZ. On stock ROM, the cam is pretty good, not so much on custom ROMs, though, usual closed source binary blob problems.
[Oppo Find 5] robermad1986:
Hi!

If you are looking a brand new one, maybe this is the one with best camera for this price (I dont know anything about Nokia and WP) you can buy for that amount.

If you dont mind, maybe you can take a Xperia Z (same sensor, but better app) in the second market.

P.S: Yes, this is my first post in about 3 years LOL! (I prefer reading)

[Oppo Find 5] vitorugo-8:
at the beggining i was thinking about xperia z (i'm a huge fan of the xperia line) or htc one (i don't like the samsung plastic), but i reconsidered that ... 550€ or more for a phone? i think it´s to much, so i stablished the 400€ limit, and for that money, and new phones (not used) i'm in between nexus 4 or the oppo find 5 ( i believe they are the only with superb specs and not so expensive phones ). But the nexus 4 is 4.7 inch screen, and an 8mp camera ( but i guess the 8mp i just a number).

3 things that i consider in a phone : camera; battery; development.

So, what you guys say?
[Oppo Find 5] kinghu:
If camera is a priority then you may be better looking elsewhere.

The Find 5 camera is OK in good light but struggles otherwise. My wife has a Nexus 4 and I don't rate that camera either.

-- From my Find 5
[Oppo Find 5] CodeX86:
I agree the Oppo is nothing to get mad excited about. The camera is very noisy. Actually in HDR mode my pictures on the Nexus 4 turned out way better!
[Oppo Find 5] vitorugo-8:
so the camera is worst than an xperia s?
[Oppo Find 5] CodeX86:
Never had the chance to compare to a Xperia S.

But for the claims made by their commercial it doesn't live up to the promise.

I too am interested in this phone, one of my main concerns is battery life.

When you say you have about 30-40% more battery life, how many screen on time are you talking about? 5-6 hours?

Thank you.
[Oppo Find 5] CodeX86:
Well you can forget the Stock firmware even with fauxes Kernel it will suck you dry. The best experience as far as battery life i had so far was with Cyanogenmod. Even so it is not running an optimized Kernel it seems to handle power mangement way better!

5-6 hours screen on is way over what you will be able to achieve with normal day 2 day use. For sure you will max out at the moment at 4 hours screen on time.

If you are looking for a new phone with lot's of battery life i would hold of another 1-2 month and see what others have to offer because Oppo didn't even release 4.2 yet but they are planning on in early August. Until then don't bother!
[Oppo Find 5] vitorugo-8:
so, in conclusion, despite the problems with the camera ( which i think it's a software problem, not hardware ) for 400€, and with a custom rom, the oppo it's the best phone on the market?
[Oppo Find 5] Elwood_It:
Thank you very much for the answer!
[Oppo Find 5] grudas:
camera is far from bad.. :) not the best in low light and yes noise can be a problem but i walked out in garden snapped some pics

nothing wrong with it IMO, i actually think its quite good! a lot better than my s2 was.
[Oppo Find 5] vitorugo-8:
uou those pictures are amazing ... i'm not any expert, but i think the picture quality are far from bad ... are you using any tweak or something? or it's the stock camera app?
[Oppo Find 5] grudas:
stock camera and stock rom :) only thing i've done is root and kill the stock launcher, thats it :) no editing on those either straight out of the phone in full res.
[Oppo Find 5] kinghu:
Sorry just saw this... I've tried most of the stock/beta ROMs and as a light to moderate user, it lasts me about 24-36 hours. Without faux kernel I would get around 3 to 3.5 hours screen on (email, twitter, browser, Tapatalk, watching a TV show, taking pics/video and a few calls).

With faux setup for battery life, I can get 4.5 to 5 hours doing the same stuff and there isn't really a performance hit as I'm not doing much needing the phone to run at full speed for long.

It was really the idle drain that was killing it at around ~1.5%-2% per hour rather than ~0.8% with faux. Usually, I'm on wifi and have GPS on and leave them on when sleeping so it was overnight that saw a big improvement.
[Oppo Find 5] CodeX86:
Yeah I used Stock to for a while and when you do close ups the camera makes some pretty nice pictures. But as soon as contrasts aren't really there anymore it gets potentially noisy.

I mean how much can you really expect from a smartphone camera sensor without any optics to adjust depth.

Your pictures are nice. I made some nice ones myself but they don't measure up to HTC One's Ultrapixel contrast and light condition abilities.

Funny part about all of this is probably that drivers neither on Stock or Custom are really optimized.

I do though still think the state the phone is in right now it is not worth it. Neither Stock Software nor Custom give you a really great experience with the device right now. ;)
[Oppo Find 5] kinghu:
After trying numerous stock and custom ROM/kernel combinations, I have to disagree. Last week's Chinese Firefly is, IMO, very usable in terms of performance, battery life, and reliability.

I posted some findings here:

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] saulo866:
I supposedMDA III were all equippend with 128MB RAM and 96MB ROM.

I got an MDA III from T-Mobile, today, with 128MB RAM: I am looking at settings/ device information / hardware

But I cannot see clearly the real size of the ROM.

Thanks for any hints

Saulo866
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] saulo866:
compare MDA Compact vs MDA III

I explain in details, and I hope someone can clear my doubts...

I have a MDA Compact & a MDA III

1. on MDA III

I see two storage areas:

- storage

- extended ROM

After a hard reset (no programs installed, except I have sync-d all my inbox) the memory applet is saying:

- storage: used 0.01MB free 43.25MB

- extended ROM: used 15.89MB free 0.08MB

The main screen says

Total Memory 125.77 (I guess this is the 128MB RAM)

Anyway (43.25 + 0.08)MB is surely more than 32MB but still MUCH LESS than 96MB.

2. MDA Compact

How do you explain that on my MDA COMPACT, under device information, I see

RAM SIZE: 64MB (correct)

FLASH SIZE: 64MB (correct)

- storage: used 0.45MB free 7.15MB

- extended ROM: used 10.19MB free 8.77MB

on my MDA III I see

RAM SIZE: 128MB (correct)

FLASH SIZE: 32MB (!??!)

Thanks and waiting

Saulo866
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] saulo866:
To be more detailed, after scrolling I see the following info (Device Information > Hardware):

Can someone (MDA III owner) confirm that he sees the same data?

[Miscellaneous Android Development] yiweitech:
I know that this has definitely been asked before, but I just want to counter some points other people have been making against password/pin protecting either the bootloader or the recovery. I sense that it's very doable, and practical for several reasons.

The first is, obviously, anyone can go on youtube and watch a tutorial on wiping the phone to bypass the lock screen, but not every average thief can flash new recoveries, bootloaders, ROMs, etc, etc. They'd probably give up after a while and just let it sit there for apps like cerberus to locate.

The second point is to prevent unauthorized entry into recovery, on my old S2 running CWM, my friend rebooted into recovery and nearly destroyed my system (began installing random zip files)

I wouldn't think it would be too hard to execute either, TWRP (which I currently use) already has a "swipe to unlock system", it wouldn't be hard to modify it to contain a pin.

So hopefully someone actually sees this, and best-case scenario, one of the TWRP devs sees this...so thank you for reading that random spur of arguments, and I know that Team Win has already responded a while back but hopefully this gives some new arguments for why there should be a lockscreen.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asdqwe143:
Hey guys i wouls just to ask about your battery temp,and i would to show you if this is even normal for the one
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tinderbox (UK):
I have my battery app set to sound an alarm if the temp of the battery goes over 104f and it had done this a couple of times, but only when i am not using the phone which is strange :eek:

John.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ataft:
104F equals 40C. That temp is fine. If you do some more intense gaming, it will easily exceed that.

For the phone to do that while not in use, however, could be a little worrying if it wasn't charging. The phone can heat up quite a bit when charging from a deep discharge. Still a bit hot for a charge.

I remember I once had my One X charging. I left for a while, when I came back it was super hot. No idea why, but it happened once or twice in the year that I had it.

it connects and i can see the folders of my internal & external cards, but sometimes (within the last few weeks it happens a lot) when i try and copy a new ROM that takes 2-3 minutes, sometimes the PC just loses connection after a minute or so and my file obviously fails to copy over.

also when this happens my screen blanks out and i have to hold power until it restarts.

any help?

also, i use the PC because i have a small data plan & there is no wifi at work.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] p3tr0s:
Think of the options. If they make one device and you can have your pick of sense, aosp, or windows which is actually gaining market share. I think the idea is kinda brilliant. Especially if its the same exact device.

How is it considered spreading yourself thin if you're making the same device on multiple carriers anyways?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] cfendrick:
It would be a great idea to have one device with multiple platform choices. However, it sounds like the Windows device is going to have ddr3 memory so I wonder what else will be different?

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] raptoro07:
Nothing changed. As I said before, it is the same old issue that has always been an issue. Technically most ROM modification stuff going on here is illegal.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] nathantaylor:
A few thoughts:

1 - The difference between us and the HD2 is that the HD2 started with Windows Phone on it. Then, it got an improved Windows Phone 7, but I think they got away with it because the device initially had WP. Then, it got Android. In that order, its fine because Android is open source. Unfortunately, WP is not open source. MeeGo and Tizen are open source, and perhaps could be ported to the One if the development is good enough/popular enough. Never underestimate the power of the developers on this forum: especially when they team up.

2 - They get an SD card slot? UNFAIR!! :crying:

3 - [MENTION=298777]raptoro07[/MENTION] It says in your sig. that you have 2 HTC Ones. Wanna give one to me? Lol I haven't gotten mine yet--I'm not sure if I'll go with AT&T or Sprint. I really wanna stay with Sprint since I've met a lot of devs on here that have Sprint who I like and I want to have their work on my future devices. But, as long as I'm on a shared plan with my parents, I can't make that decision. This qualifies another :crying: if you ask me.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] sauprankul:
If you don't mind the ugly logo on the back, the AT&T One is exactly like the Google Play edition/Dev edition (AFAIK). Except, you know, the logo on the back.

Also, Android is open source. Windows is not. That means it's less illegal... :D

While the actual distribution of full ROMs is technically illegal (you're "stealing" HTC's code), I'm pretty sure you're allowed to modify your own phone, even if it does remove warranty.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] flar2:
Windows is paid ssoftware with a very restrictive license. Cyanogenmod,aosp, linux kernel, and many other projects here are free and have open source licenses that encourage people to modify and distribute the software.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] raptoro07:
However Sense, Beats, Touchwiz, and other OEM software is not open and therefore redistribution of them and modifications are technically illegal. My point was only to say that it is no different than 90% of what is going on XDA.
