[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tobin_o:
Yeah, and even if you could find a replacement mobo online, I've heard that the One is one of the worst phones ever for taking apart and reassembling.

What really burns me is that I've likely lost a fairly expensive phone without making any mistake that I could at least blame myself for. It sounds like your One also went south on you without any mistake on your part. My next question would be-- is this more likely to happen with the One? With all HTCs? Or all handsets equally? My backup Xperia Play has put on a lot of crazy mileage in terms of flashing, along with a Galaxy S2 that I sold some time ago. On the other hand, my One was virtually untouched by comparison...
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darksnoopy:
Yeah if you search for "emmc write protected" or "emmc lockout" you will find many threads about lots of different brands. Well if u consider how many htc ones have been sold, this problem is not quite common
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaHiLzZ:
Have you tried to get back to supercid?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tobin_o:
Yep. Same deal as the other fastboot write commands: It carries out the write operation as if it were successful, but then nothing has changed.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kunalkumar2611:
Hi All,

I have been using Moto G for 2 weeks now. Aboslutley no notable issues till now but for one.

I have Airtel GSM connection in India. And when i am switched to 3G Network, I often notice N/W issues like my calls take time to get connected, 3G Internet goes slow and sometimes when i try to check my balance using *123# or *121*2# , I get this error message - "Connection Problem or Invalid MMI Code".

This never happens if i am switched to 2G Network. Happens only when i am in 3G.

Co-Incidently I had this problem in my older Samsung Galaxt SL i9003 too.

Kindly let me know if anyone else in India is facing this issue or can it be because of my device or my SIM.

P.S i happened to cut my normal SIM to Micro Sim to fit it into Moto G and my SIM is approx 4.7 years old.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] padhu1989:
It should be your sim card problem.. Try with some other sim and other networks like Vodafone
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rr46000:
Problem

get a new micro sim
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kunalkumar2611:
Are your sure that its because of SIM?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adizz4:
MMI code issue is known to exist on many devices and probably has nothing to do with your sim.

Its better to get a newer micro sim, moto g doesn't like cut sim cards. I had to get a new one, the cut one was simply not detected at all. YMMV though.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kunalkumar2611:
Lol.. now u scare me by saying it exists in many devices. So does it mean if it is not becasue of SIM, then do i need to get my Moto G changed?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adizz4:
More to do with android tbh...ur phone's fine :)
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kunalkumar2611:
Apologies but wht do u mean by "Android tbh"
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rr46000:
Google

i mean literally is there no google

tbh means to be honest

many sims which were 4 years or older had some problems (moto g indian thread)

it can be mmi code but i'm not sure then
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zazzy24:
Actually i had the same problem with my sam y and now on moto g.. my wife has the same issue on her sam s duos.. imo it's the poor 3g network of airtel that causes this issue more than anything else..
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forgotter:
It's due to poor network of some service providers. I have 2 sims: Docomo and Idea, Docomo gives me some problem with network connectivity and running USSD codes also but Idea works smooth.

any1 ordered their sets from this site? liaow.com

oppostyle.com is having their pre-order on the 7th april for the international. which makes me wonder whats the diff between oppostyle sets n liaow.com sets, since all their bandwidths are the same..beside the freebies oppostyle is offering.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] andriman:
OppoStyle is an official retail partner of Oppo.

Liaow.com just bought the phone and sells it for a higher price.

There are also 3 versions of Oppo Find 7:

X9000 - 7a For China only

X9007 - 7a Worldwide

X9077 - 7 (QHD) Worldwide

I am not sure whether the site you mentioned offers the X9007 one so I am gonna wait for the April 7th...
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] shakeym:
My Find 7a arrived today from Liaow.com this being my 2nd phone.

them.

review please! esp concerning battery life
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] andriman:
I'd appreciate your review, too.. Especially the visibility of the screen under the direct sun light and the battery performance.

I won't be buying it from Asia because the $579 would be highened to $700 due to the customs... That would make roughly $200 difference in comparison to buying it via OppoStyle.com, which is just too much considering it's "just the lite version".
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] p51d007:
Oh, don't worry...I'm sure it will show up on Amazon soon LOL
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] shakeym:
review please! esp concerning battery life

Hi, Battery life so far 20:hrs44" 86% under light usage main contributors are

Wifi and Cellular at 33%.

Light conditions were overcast and the display was poorish.

Back cover is removable with the sim inserted to the upper left of battery and SD card to the upper right.

Battery as quoted 2700/2800 mah.

Build quality is very good, it is unfortunate that some of the Chinese programs

cannot be deleted until a Rom is made.

My Phone was already rooted so saved me having to do it.

Cheers...
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] nap007:
you have used it for 20 hours and it's still at 86%? pretty impressive
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] lunarken:
20 hrs and still at 86%.. thats insane..

hows the screen and viewing angle is it washed out?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] chunnayya:
I also ordered from liaow.com; as above, build quality was nice.

I had several issues the first few days that made the phone pretty much unusable:

Couldn't mount 32GB µSDXC card

Couldn't connect to 5GHz WiFi

Couldn't connect to mobile data on either 3G (UMTS / HSPA) or 4G (LTE)

This morning I received an OTA update (X9007_12_140327) that, thankfully, resolved all the above issues.

(Readme for OTA update specifically mentioned fixing the card mount issue and "better connectivity")

After the update, however, I lost both root and Google Play (which Mike from liaow.com had graciously installed).

I contacted Mike and he sent me another recovery - however, it was an EXE that I was unable to ever make successfully work.

Luckily, the EXE is simply a self-extracting RAR with a kickoff script containing the actual recovery IMG, which can be easily manually extracted.

Using that IMG, I was able to use fastboot (on GNU/Linux, Fedora 20/x64) to install the recovery and subsequently update the root / gapps.

EDIT: BTW, I'm in Singapore; carrier is SingTel (postpaid 4G plan)
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] GuestX0057:

Hi. The only problem I had setting up the phone , was the weather location

Follow me would not stick?? So I had to use a city name instead then everything

Was fine.

Cheers...
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] chunnayya:
So I've had a couple of days to play with the Find 7a; overall I'm pretty happy with this phone.

First, battery life - >24 hours from 100pc to power off:

WiFi (5GHz) on

Data (4G/LTE) Connected when no WiFi available

BT continuously on and connected (to Plantronics Headset)

All other settings default (i.e., "Power Saving Mode" is not enabled)

Exception: Enabled "Keep WiFi on During Sleep", Disabled "WiFi Optimization"

The Rapid Recharge is excellent, from complete discharge to:

20%: 10min

90%: 45min

100%: 1h15min

Screenshots:

a) 2% capacity after 24hr 35m uptime

b) 21% capacity after 10min charge

c) 90% capacity after 45min charge

d) 100% capacity after 1h14min charge

Second, connection speeds:

[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] chunnayya:
I don't really have much to comment on the SW as I pretty much immediately added the entire Google Play environment as well as all my regular Android apps.

At least one thing doesn't work at all on this build:

Settings -> General -> Wireless & Networks -> More -> Data monitor -> Settings - <CRASH>

("Unfortunately, Data monitor has stopped."; screenshot attached).

I've not yet had a chance to to check out the WiFi Direct or the WiFi Display (or, for that matter, Chromecast) functionality; I have a Netgear PTV3000 (Miracast) Adapter as well as a Google Chromecast Adapter (and have the premium version of Koushik Dutta's AllCast) - I'll check those out in the coming days (most likely over the weekend).
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] nap007:

[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] chunnayya:
Wasn't paying attention - will check on the next power charge / discharge iteration.

If you're asking me, I'm in SG, carrier is SingTel.

---------- Post added at 05:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:28 PM ----------

Something I've found that I really like / am annoyed by is the Color OS permissions manager.

Really like because:

I find how often various apps require completely unrelated permissions.

Disabling these permissions results in no loss of functionality

I can allow permissions either once / each time or permanently

(Interestingly, I saw the Facebook app attempting to check my contacts each and every time I added any other app that had any interaction with contacts (e.g., email apps of whatever variety); this before I had signed in to Facebook.)

Annoyed by because it pops up so often! Reminiscent of the MS Vista UAC in its frequency.

I'm, of course, willing to live with the frequency of pop ups because I prefer the control.

(I believe other CM related ROMs have had similar functionality for some time; this is the first ROM / OS in which I've had this feature - my other Android devices are running just vanilla (rooted) Google Play experience images or Slim variants)
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] kopkiwi:
Hows the camera?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] chunnayya:
I've just finished a battery burn test: enabled all connection methods (Mobile (no data as WiFi), WiFi 5Ghz, BT, NFC), set display brightness to manual / maximum, connected BT speaker (Logitech UE 984-000298). To ensure the system did not go into power saving mode, I pulled up a few YouTube titles (HD symphonic orchestral pieces are ideal - long playing, decent bitrate for high definition playback on video, decent consistent audio output via BT).

Total run time from 100% charged battery to auto-power-off: 5 hours 10 minutes.

I monitored the battery status fairly continuously - discharge in this mode is pretty linear.

After recharging the battery fully, I'll re-run the test tomorrow with same environment but with display brightness set to 'auto'.

Overall, I continue to be pleased with the phone.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] nap007:
yay buddy, thanks for testing it but I'm not sure how will such extreme testing is going to help us lol... it maybe a little helpful if there's a direct comparison on such test with other device as a measure but as it is it doesn't tell us anything, if not actually a little worrying.

and do you understand what is 'screen on time' screenshot I asked you about? I meant something like this

on average use that is.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] chunnayya:
Yes, I do understand "screen on time"; however, I find it a very misleading statistic as there is no "general" use case as such for mobile phones. I.e, there is no "average use" you refer to.

E.g., I'm on a shared 300min/month mobile plan because I rarely use my mobile for actual GSM voice communications. We rarely even get close to that 300min each month.

Similarly, we have 2GB/mon shared data, which, again, we rarely come even close to: although we consume / generate quite a lot of data, the vast majority is via home / office / public / other WiFi.

As mentioned, I do often use WiFi, also, a variety of music apps, mapping SW, miscellaneous other apps, etc (few of which require much in the way of display activity).

Your use case, and, in my experience, most others' use cases for their mobiles, is likely to be quite different.

Hence, the information I provided is one extreme; use it as guidance for your decision. Without your purchasing the phone and actually using it for yourself for a few weeks there is no other way to determine if it will be suitable for your needs.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] nap007:
alright I get it, but still is there any comparison with your previous device or such in that extreme battery burn in test? to provide more clarity to the test.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] chunnayya:
For my specific usage pattern, just from a battery life perspective, the phone has been excellent.

Prior main device: Google (LG) Nexus 4 (running current Android 4.4.2 KitKat KOT49H, rooted): usual battery life was between 6-8 hours.

The OPPO Find 7a (running current Color OS v 1.2.0 build X9007_12_140327): usual battery life is, as I stated before, >24 hours (which won't be my normal use case after I've completed all my various tests - as normally I charge overnight).
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] :
Thanks chunnayya, I like your testing more than that normal screen on time because that doesn't tell us anything. I'm quite impressed actually, seems they have done good work. Shame that I missed the preorders from Oppostyle because I was at work :( Out of stock now...
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] fremar:
It's still possible to add it to the cart when I tried now. http://europe.oppostyle.com/find-7/80-find-7a-midnight.html has sais out of stock on the first page since it opened for pre-orders 8:55 today.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] djjo77:
Hello,

@ chunnayya, i would like to buy the 7a but i don't know if i could use it in my country (France). Have you any problem With the band? Did you root for use it?Did you pay any custom charges?

Thank you
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] gibbo mccool:
So is a firmware flash required to ensure these liaow phones LTE works in your country (Australia for me ). If so is it easy to do ?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] chunnayya:
I too purchased the "CN" version (X9007) although I'm in SG.

Copying a post I made on the OPPO forums:

Looking at the LTE bands listed for France I see just 3 + 7 listed (same as here in SG); as long as you're not roaming through other European countries which have providers needing band 20, the CN version should be OK; otherwise, you may wish to wait for the INT version of the phone (which adds support for band 20 as well).

The phone, when first delivered to me, was running the CN localized version of the ColorOS (1.x), but, even with that version, I had no trouble connecting to LTE (FDD) here in SG.

Looking at the Wikipedia chart of Australia LTE bands, I see 3 (FDD) + 40 (TDD): both of these are supported by the CN version.

Having said that, I would still recommend flashing the ColorOS 2.0 International Beta - even with the "Beta" moniker, it is more stable (although neither OS version crashed on me, various apps did crash more often with the ColorOS 1.x version) and smoother in performance.

I have seen no difference in LTE speed in either version.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] gibbo mccool:

Yeah, I am undecided as of right now. Itching to get the Find 7a and just buy it already. But I am wondering if I should wait for the 7 premium version. Planning on sticking with the phone I do get for the next couple of years; so the better the specs, the greater the chance I'll stick with it longer.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] tomermax:
does any body ordered the find 7a from liaow.com?

is it a reliable site?

they say that they sell the X9007 model,will it work with wcdma bands?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] kishd:
Very reliable. Posts quickly and efficiently. Ordered and got it in a week to South Africa
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] bobbydigital222:
i also ordered from liaow the find 7 qhd X9077 i live in canada i got it in 5 days and i am very happy, paid a bit extra but got it sooner
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Govert:
I also ordered the x9077 from liaow.com and within minutes after paying with PayPal I got a personal mail that the phone would be shipped within three days.

The next day already I got a mail with pictures of the parcel and the invoice saying "Phone, Gift, value $28". Customs were fooled and this saved me a lot of import taxes! Great work LIAOW!

The phone was ordered on May 27th and I received it on Monday June 2nd. If there wasn't a weekend in between I would have gotten it earlier!

The parcel was in good shape and I even got a flip cover for free and the people at liaow also put a protective sheet over the screen and added an additional sheet in the package.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Entropy512:
As a warning: LIAOW has been claiming that this can be reconfigured for full international/US support with a firmware update.

It can't. It will not be able to access US LTE no matter what you do, and will likely lack some if not all Euro LTE bands.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Vipermuscle83:
I have ordered 5 phones from lioaw.com thus far, and I can tell you that the owner/operator/whatever (Mike) has been as reliable as can be expected from anyone in China. What does that mean? It means:

1. Do your own research on the model numbers he offers and figure out whether it will work with your carrier without asking him. He's fairly knowledgeable but does tend to make the occasional mistake when he answers tougher questions.

2. Trust that site. The communication with Mike is supherb. The shipping is super fast through TNT. Typically, I order a phone today and receive it within 4-6 days total.

3. If and when in doubt, use Paypal as your payment method every time. This isn't to say that Mike would try to screw anyone over, but a shipment can be lost by FedEx, TNT, or whoever. Paypal will secure your purchase and reimburse you in the event that you never received your item.

4. The deals are very fair on that site, but at the end of the day...remember that you are dealing with a wholesaler that buys and sells Chinese phones to international buyers. What I mean by that is to ensure that the phone you are buying is compatible with your needs, don't expect many of their phones to offer LTE bands for North America, and always research different model numbers that are associated with the same model phone. (Ex. The Oppo find 7 2k comes in 2 model numbers, the X9077 and X9076. the 9077 is the Chinese version with no LTE for the US while the 9076 is the US/Mex model with LTE)

On a scale of 1-10, 10 being the best customer service imaginable, I'd give liaow.com a solid 8.5

Mike does a fantastic job of communicating within hours of a sale to give you a heads up of what's next, he emails you with tracking info immediately after shipping, and he's an honest businessman that goes a long way to display his integrity.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] xdafann:
I think you've summed it up quite good. Got my package in 4 days to Europe... Mike for me is the best customer service I've ever seen. In fact, I'd even as high as 9.5 when grading liaow, and that is just not wanting to put a perfect 10. I've been amazed by that website.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Ath3na32:
Some really positive posts, thanks everyone.

I have been waiting for a OnePlus but I also really love the look of the Find 7.

I might order from Mike, I just need to do a little reading and make sure the OPPO Find 7 White Cell Phone

5.5-Inch 2K Screen 4G-LTE will work in the UK properly. I am happy to flash, root etc

Thanks guys.

Ok So I bought some adapters (see attachments) to charge mi Z1 via the magnetic port, So far I dont have problems, until the KitKat update, in all JB versions I can charge it without any problem, I have one charger in my room and I use another for the school (different cable, different power source, different adaptor) But after the KitKat update there is a point (mostly when the battery reaches almost 50%) when the phone starts to get some overheat, there is even a point when stops charging (maybe for security I suppose) I left it in the night and when I wake up the battery is at 60% + -, and the phone its hot as I was playing with it, it only happen via the magnetic and only with the kitkat upgrade, anyone else having this behaviour? I have do a update via PC Companion, and after notice these behaviour, a complete wipe with SEUS, same results

any idea? :(
