[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andrew_j:
Hi All

I haven’t found a specific forum for Honor 6 plus but I hope to find some answers to my questions here :)

Currently I have OnePlus One and I look at Honor 6 Plus for an upgrade.

The selling point for me is camera performance. I expect H6+ to have less noise and be general better all-rounder camera.

I know that the performance will be slightly worse than OPO and video quality will be worse as well (OPO has 4k recording and 120fps@720p and 60fps@1040p).

But…

Can you help me if H6+ will be worthy upgrade for somebody into photography?

1.	How it is behaving in general usage (shutters, hick ups, performance issues, software issues – battery drains etc…,)?

2.	Lollipop update – forecast?

3.	Overall phone quality – any issues with it? Bad pixels, light leaks on the screen, any bend-gates/antenna-gates, my-phone-tries-to-kill-me-gates?

4.	How is the camera – photo quality, noise levels on dark photos, does it have any manual settings? Or if not in stock version are they accessible from 3rd party apps? (ie.on OPO using app “Camera FV-5” I have the access to manual ISO and exposure time settings, is this possible in H6+?)

5.	3D photos – since the H6+ has two cameras this technically should be possible – is it?

6.	RAW shooting – any chances?

7.	Can apps be fully installed on SD card? I have noticed that my Samsung tablet moves only small bits of the app to SD card while my previous Tegra tabled moved whole app there (both were on 4.4 KK) – how does it work on H6+?

8.	File manager – since KitKat security restrictions crippled SD card functionality I understand that (without rooting) file managers cannot modify SD card unless they are built in the ROM and seen by the system as core app. Is there any built in file manager in H6+ able to create and delete files from SD card?

9.	USB OTG – does H6+ supports USB OTG for USB drives/keyboards/mice? My typical scenario I take photos on my SLR, I transfer them to my phone SD card , I share them from my phone. Will it work for me using H6+?

10.	Is it powerful enough to play demanding 3D games like KOTOR for example?

11.	Buy now or wait for something on Kirin 935? Or for the price fall? Any fortune-tellers around? :)

Thank you all for your time and replies :)

Hi guys. I know there are few H6+ users here. Anybody willing to share their experience?
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roarc3:
1. I think it's the best phone I've had since my first cell phone in mid-80's , no freezes etc. Long battery time, charge 2-3 times a week, but I' work at home and are out of the building a few times a week, or while on holiday. Don't use it for music, but Surveillance(Blue Iris) and IP-Cam viewer, booking app, and remote controlling my officePC.

2. Lollipop will arrive in July/August I think. Nothing I think is worth waiting for, have 5.0 on my Tab S, and there are some bugs...

3 Nothing, got the phone in February-15.

4. Camera is OK, HDR, Super night,Panorama etc. I have an M43 from Olympus, so it does not bother me.. ISO , WB, smile detect and touch for focus,GPS,and timer functions+ some watermarks and small adjustments can be made, no manual shutter/aperture. Seen an Oppo which looked better , at least on the screen..

5. No 3D in the Honor app

6. No RAW....

9. I have one Oly PM1 for underwater photos, I use a WD wireless disk with SD card reader on holiday, download to my Tab, share. My EM-10 is wireless, transfers JPG wireless to the phone, share. (I use PhotoMate on the TAB for editing RAW files, can then adjust WB etc.like LR.

11. Hmm, I love this phone,have a alu frame around it with plastic backcover(metal dampens the signals...). I like the camera function where you can adjust the aperture after the shot. I would maybe looked at the newest Honor or Huawei P7 because of an international version of ROM, but then I would miss this camera option!

I am looking at this phone, may I ask which country you are in, and if you are finding there is too much chinese and not enough English? And was it easy enough to get google play services and play store working on?

Thanks
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roarc3:
Located in Norway. Downloaded Google Play/updated it with the English version.(The GPlay Icon is the same in Chinese), and the phone updated most apps by itself to English versions. I have chosen Norwegian as language, and almost all menus are in that language, else in English. Hivoice is in Chinese, so voice control does not work(or I have not tried, can't read chinese). HiCloud/cloud+ does not work, annoying, so I have manually set up backups to other drives. This also means you have to download Themes manually, but no big deal for me. There are a few Huawei Apps, forums, etc, all in Chinese. I think the access to Cloud+ and Hivoice is most annoying, as it reminds me to do backups I can't do because I'm denied access to the Cloud+.....

Besides that, after using it since February, I'm very pleased, it's my all time favourite phone since mid-80's :), Owned most brands, Motorola,Philips, Ericsson, Nokia, Samsung, HTC,Cubot(Apollo), and now Honor....... And, there will be a Lollipop update late summer for it...

kingroot will root the phone without unlocking the boot loader. then you can use rom toolbox to freeze/disable the stupid system apps. you can get the playstore from the huawei appstore, then kill the appstore. from the miui website you can get the google apps apk installer for google contacts sync. then just use a third party launcher and you have a fairly stock android experience with all of huawei honor6s great hardware

Bought today from Amazon UK, awesome phone. Been on it all day and still got 69% battery ( I'm a heavy user ) lots of media and live streaming playback etc. Phone came with virtually vanilla style setup ( all google apps installed ) very few bloatware so its been a dream start. Camera is good ( not as good as Sony z3 ;) but holds its own. Performance is very snappy and I've not had any lag on anything and also feel no need to root as of yet as all is very good as it is.

Coming previously from a nexus 4 this phone is very good indeed.

Regards as always
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andrew_j:
I got one from amazon as well. Good thing is that all of bloatware can be uninstalled (not hidden) I managed to get rid of all of it with no problem.

On various reviews I read that it has no headphones in the box but mine come bundled with a pair - haven't tried its quality but they look rather basic with only one button. Also in the box I had two screen savers for front and rear. Still a puzzling thing is that somebody on the amazon claimed that he received his with touchplus screen protector!?!? I wish to have one but it is almost impossible to buy. How about you? Did you get one as well?
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Slymobi:
Nah same as you mate, headphones are basic yes so I use my own. I got the 32gb version. The apps I didn't want I could actually uninstall so thats a bonus for me I guess. This phones battery is WOW still going and got 35% watched fa cup, golf, boxing as well as faceache and twitter use........ Its running on Duracell lol.

Honor 6 plus on ebay

Those looking for this device can get the 32GB NFC international version in any of the 3 colours from the manufacturer and a few dealers on eBay. They will load language and radio bands to suit you needs. Must say do like the Gold version..So worth a look on eBay people.
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andrew_j:
Hi all.

Do you have "cloud problem" as well?

I have been testing my H6+ camera further and I have noticed that test stock camera delivers superb quality on low light shots but its struggle with clouds and end results is very grainy. Even well below 100% magnification you can see the noise. But on the other hand using third part app like my beloved FV-5 solves the problem and clouds looks much better even fully zoomed.

Therefore I believe that this is compression algorithm issue only within Honor camera app. My stock firmware is B141. What's yours?

HI

I have and aftermarket cover and it used to work flawless with kitkat. I updated recently and now it doesnt. Phone freezes when i flip the cover , cannot answer calls etc..

If sm1 who is still in kitkat could extract scover.apk and another relative apk (i dont remember the name but has "cover" in it :P) it would be so nice.

Thanks
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metalfan78:
The quickest way to get an apk, rather than wait for someone to post it, is to download a rom and unzip it and take what you need.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] armandomulla:
Thanks for the quick reply.

I have a stock 4.4.2 rom in my pc but cant seem to decompress it. I can see system.img.ext4 (2.2Gb so this must be the main archive) but dont know how to extract that archive. Tried 7zip winzip winrar nothing works.

Thanks
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metalfan78:
Is it a tar or a zip?

---------- Post added at 06:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:21 AM ----------

A kit-kat apk most likely won't work on a lollipop rom anyway. Try finding a stock lollipop rom and test the apk from that.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] armandomulla:
It's a tar.

As for the second suggestion I am currently on stock firmware so that's the problem.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metalfan78:
First, you would need a stock rom in zip form. Second, look for a custom stock based rom around here, it may have an apk that works.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] griggori:
Hi guys!

I would seriously appreciate help with this case.

I have friend's Xperia J on my hands, trying to bring it back to life.

The situation is like this:

The phone had failed upgrade to Jelly Bean (I have no specific info how that happened). Now it boots, goes through 'Android is upgrading' phase (optimising applications), goes to homescreen, and then after a few moments a lot of crashes happen (for example "Unfortunatelly DownloadAgent has stopped working") and after some time (usually 1 min) phone freezes and restarts.

To me it seemed like an easy case - just reflash stock firmware and we're good. So i've tried repairing through PC Sony Companion, but when I am told by software to put the phone into flash mode (vol down + usb cable) it just sits there not detecting the phone. I've tried windows 8.1 and windows 7 machines and usb 2.0 with sony cable.

Next, I've tried flashtool, also installing flashtool drivers. When I'm told to plug usb cable, it only goes to 'Reading device information' and just sits there. (Green led is lit).

When I check drivers with phone in flash mode this is what I get:

11/029/2015 13:29:56 - INFO - List of connected devices (Device Id) :

11/029/2015 13:29:56 - INFO - - USB\VID_0FCE&PID_ADDE\5&212AC8FC&0&3	Driver installed : true

So, I'm kind of out of options here, and any help would be appreciated! Also, I suppose that 'USB Debugging' is not turned on, it is hard to check with all those crashes happening, but I dont think it matters.

Thank you for any suggestion :good:
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Dzepar:
Try with different cable, and connect it on back usb port. I had problems with flashing with original cable that comes with phone, now i use short 10cm from Nokia. I haven't had any problems since.

Hi all

For the last two days i have been getting an issue when disconnecting my Samsung galaxy s6 edge from the car charger .

On removal from the car charger the brightness automatically goes to the lowest setting .

It does not matter what the previous settings are where auto is on our off.

The only thing I can note is this does not occur on my house charger or my anker multi charger.

Any one got any ideas why this might occur

Thanks

Hi Everyone,

I'm thinking about buying a Note 4 later today.

But, I'd like to ask how good is the GPS chip in the Note 4?

I've seen a few YT videos showing that it takes forever to obtain lock and having problems "seeing" all the available satellites, compared to other devices.

Is this common or just a one off?

On the TomTom forum, a few people are saying they are getting clipped voice instructions when using the Note 4 (and other Samsung devices) over Bluetooth, using the latest TomTom Go app.

They don't say if they are using KK or Lp, or are rooted using a custom ROM.

Does anyone have any problems when using the app?

Thank you for any quick feedback.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wilcovh:
Hi. I'm using the app. On it self it is working good. I do not have any problems with gps locks. Normally it takes less then 10 seconds.

the clipped voice instructions also happen to me using bluetooth but only when the instructions are streamed to e.g my car stereo and a very little bit in normal mode.. if I turn music streaming off the sound comes through the phone speaker, the bluetooth is still connected for the handsfree phone calls then all is fine.

When turning on the bluetooth with music streaming on there are two problems. At first the voice regularly stutters the first few seconds during the announcement. The other problem is that the last word is cut off and announced as part of the next manouvre. So it sounds like

in 300 meters turn le.... next manouvre sounds like ...eft at the roundabout take the second ex....

Hey guys this is my first post here.

I wanted to know that is there is way to check if the kernel and rom are compatible with each other or not:confused: .Suppose,(Eg.) whether ultimate rom LSC is compatible with Abyss Note kernel (and if it is then what version of the kernel) and how to i check the compatiblity without ending up in boot loops, brick,etc.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] notauseranymore:
Usually the stock kernels inside the rom are good enough, but if you want to experiment with others then make sure they are for the right android version. For example, a kernel that says cm11 or kitkat would only work for roms using kitkat/cm11. It's as easy as that.

Edit: The kernel and rom thread will specify their versions so if you double-check them then it will be okay.

Yes, but some kernels have a slight tweak for certain roms. Just make sure they are for the right android version, then check if they say anything about Cm/Slim/Omni compatibility. They will specify for you so just put two and two together.

TWLite ROM is touchwiz based rom, 4.1.2 jellybean, without any bloatware, only with applications that most peoples uses. No bootanimation, better battery percentage, etc. It is clear, and safe.
