[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anastatow:
I had just received the Obliq with kickstand through amazon.https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B011WD7OUM/ref=mobile_oh_details_?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I really liked it...might try to put a little circle bandaid or something on the magnet to dampen so I can continue use. Hopefully no permanent damage or anything.

People have been saying that the Seidio Dilex Pro doesn't cause any issues with the Spen. Mine will be here Friday so I can test it though. I have the Dilex pro from my S6 edge right here and it seems like the case may be shielded or something behind the kickstand so that might be why. http://www.seidioonline.com/mobile/Product.aspx?ProductCode=BD2-HT2SSGT5K-BK
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JBurd3:
I actually was thinking about that case. That deadspot does suck though. Other than that, how do you like the case though? Feel like it protects the phone well? I'm still considering it. I haven't TRULY got to play with my phone yet since I've had it and i dont know all of the features of the S pen so im not sure how much Id actually use it

I have a S6 920I installed with 5.1.1 and i accidentally used the ODIN root meant for 5.0.2. i have browsed through the forums and it seems that the only way to un-brick it is to flash the stock firmware. The problem with this is that the firmware is taking 5 days to download and the download always fails. Please, if anyone has this firmware, can they link it to me. Much thanks will be given

Thank you ... I had no idea if the d-load was working or not, so I stopped.

After 5-days, 24/7, over wifi, how do you know that the download was successful?

I'll try doing it now ...

My S6 (Australia) works ok, but not perfectly. Some annoyances, such as screen-off stops playing radio, podcasts & music.

Does this answer your question?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] N2A:
Yes, it's a crosspost from the Hermes forum, but I thought I'd better let all the users of the homeplug on the other devices know about it. This fix allows you to get virtually all local towns and cities on the weather tab of the homeplug, not just the small amount that the HTC accuweather system gives you ;)

Get your fix here!

Hi

I've recently done a petition to release all the working source codes and drivers of Tab 3, Tab 3 Lite and S3 Mini that have the same processor but not enough to develop or port some ROM.

So I ask you to firm this petition for our phone and tab.

Thanks to those who will firm.

Hey guys what you think new mate arrived

Younger brother Mate S :)

[Huawei Mate S] haistiinta:
2700mah baterry? wrf?
[Huawei Mate S] XDADEVX:
I don't believe that it suppose to be 3700 or 3500.. bcos phone is 5,5"..
[Huawei Mate S] haistiinta:
http://www.phonearena.com/phones/Huawei-Mate-S_id9580
[Huawei Mate S] XDADEVX:
yeah it is 2700 .. hm strange..

but it might perform same as mate 7 ..

and even weirdest thing is they switched to AMOLED ..

http://consumer.huawei.com/minisite/worldwide/mateS/specifications.htm
[Huawei Mate S] blackinfinity:
2700 is a joke... Especially for a Powe user..
[Huawei Mate S] blackinfinity:
Looking forward to see the battery test, but if it wasnt for the battery I could have pre ordered it right now.

I thought Huawei was more intelligent than that and did not jump on the small battery trend.. and instead having the biggest batteries on the market..

I wonder in what time frame we can expect Mate 8... which will have kirrin 950 and most likely 20 megapixel camera.

I really like the 2D glass..
[Huawei Mate S] phrozenflame:
Big screen, huge battery, decent screen to body ratio, this is why I bought HAM7 and this is why I started following HAM1 and HAM2.
[Huawei Mate S] MikeyLee:
I hope the battery spec is a typo
[Huawei Mate S] :
Dang, Huawei has always been on top with their batteries. Would be a shame if they slipped up with this device.... That's one thing they will have over top of all these other OEM's. Huawei is going to instill fear in all of them hahaha.
[Huawei Mate S] Wlk:
Unfortunatelly its not. On launch event they even shown some slide where was picture of battery and it had text 2620 mAh. Unfortunatelly dont have original here and its not readable on downsized version.

Bit disappointed...
[Huawei Mate S] :
Well, guess testing needs to be done to see how the battery life is. Makes me curious if they changed up the system and frameworks to accommodate for the battery life.
[Huawei Mate S] Wlk:
There are quite powerfull tools to allow selectably kill background tasks when screen is off, another to pick which apps have access to data connection (wifi/mobile separately). But not sure if they are able to limit general system draw to allow longer uptime. Disconnected from charger this morning, playing with phone quite lot and still have 59% battery. But by playing I mean setting it up, not playing games. Seems to me like usuall one day of power use, or two day of limited. No surprise here unfortunatelly, hoped for 4000+ mAh battery like old Mate 7...
[Huawei Mate S] :
I hear ya. The Mate 2 can typically last up to two days easily. Have seen it last three days even.

Amazing ... 128GB and you can add 128GB SD card :)

Does anyone know about NFC on Mate S? All sites are saying different things. Also on Huawei's consumer site it says Mate S only has b/g/n 2.4ghz wifi which is very odd. Anyone know actual specs?

[Huawei Mate S] Wlk:
It has nfc, just dunno how to find what wifi standards it supports?
[Huawei Mate S] uktechguru:
There's quite a few phones that have launched without NFC which I couldn't understand and with the conflicting information of the Mate S I'm in two minds. I'm going to pre order so I guess I'll find out when I get it.

Oppo R7 Plus, OnePlus 2 and few other new releases without NFC. I know a lot of people don't use it yet but with Android Pay round the corner I can't see what manufacturers leave it out. Doesn't cost much to put in NFC. Hmmm

Sent with my Surface Pro 3 using Tapatalk
[Huawei Mate S] kobak.org:
It has NFC. Works fine.

The Mate S I have with me doesn't see my 5G WiFi network, only the 2.4 wifis. My "old" G3 has no problem handlng the 5G nets.

The battery is 2700. It's not bad compared to the G3. More later.
[Huawei Mate S] XDADEVX:
I t completely doesn't matter if it supports only WiFi 2G and not 5G..

My GF has P7 which has only 2G and she doesn't complain about it.. internet works perfect in the whole house..
[Huawei Mate S] jonmorris:
The Mate S is really just a P8 in a nicer, curved, casing with a bigger screen. Not the 5.7-inch from the rumours and not the 4,100mAh from the rumours either.

That means it's still 2.4GHz Wi-Fi only, but it does have Kirin 935 over 930. In my quick benchmark test last week, it's not a massive difference. http://jmcomms.com/2015/09/03/hands-on-with-the-huawei-mate-s-including-benchmark-results/ Oh, and the fingerprint reader is excellent - so fast it's as good as instant.

It's a nice phone and I got some great pics (sorry, another link to my site but the mods shouldn't mind as I don't sell anything or have any ads - http://jmcomms.com/2015/09/03/huawei-mate-s-photo-samples-day-and-night ) but I am still surprised.

Seems the next big phone to get excited about will be in November, although this one isn't going to be Huawei branded...! I'm hoping to get a test unit in a month or so, fingers crossed.

Perhaps the best thing about the Mate S is the fast charging, although that isn't Quick Charge 2.0 or anything - just faster than the P8 which seems to struggle to charge quickly even with a 2.1A PSU. I wonder if is limited in how much power it can draw? It's the one thing I dislike most about my P8, more than the lack of 5GHz Wi-Fi.

Unfortunately, I had to give mine back at the end of my recent trip to Berlin with Huawei, so I won't be able to review it any further.. but it's a phone that I'd gladly replace my P8 to use.
[Huawei Mate S] XDADEVX:
But P8 has slow motion in camera and double tap to wake up n?

Can you please elaborate P8 vs Mate S ? How would you compare AMOLED vs IPS Neo ? etc.

Or Mate S vs Honor 7

I think Honor 7 vins from all right now but Mate S is only about AMOLED and the design..

[Huawei Mate S] uktechguru:
I think it does matter. We should expect technology to keep up with current standards. 5ghz WiFi is found in almost every device out there that have been released or that are currently available. Laptops, notebooks, tablets, mid to high end phones all face ac 5ghz WiFi. It matters if, like me, you have a lot of IoT devices connected to your router that eat up and only use the 2.4ghz bandwidth. Most IoT devices don't have the ability to access the 5ghz band which makes the 2.4ghz band congested. I previously had a router with only 2.4ghz and I had 20+ devices connected by WiFi and things were very slow with services randomly disconnecting or failing to connect. To be able to use the higher 5ghz bandwidth firstly allows more devices to be connected to your home network and secondly it has improved speed compared to 2.4ghz.

Unless it's a budget or mid-range phone, I would expect high end flagship phones that are £400+ to have ac WiFi with 2x2 mimo and WIDI/dnla/mirrorcast support.

I'm a power user as you can see and if I'm paying a lot of money for a phone, things like 5ghz dual band WiFi should come as standard. The Honor 7 has it so why not the Mate S? Seems Huawei have it all upside down. A phone that costs £250 compared to a phone that's going to cost £600+ - surely the latter should have better specs. I'm glad I've ordered the Honor 7 - Mate S doesn't seem to be worth my money, especially if the force touch is only available on the 128gb version.

[Huawei Mate S] XDADEVX:
Man the difference btw 2G and 5G WiFi is just in speed of network .. it is NOT speed of your internet whatsoever..

You naively think that once you get connected to your 5G your internet will be faster ? Pleeese don't be naive..

The difference btw these two wifi is THAT 5G has better perfornance via network nevertheless internet speed and and WORSE range.

2G has lower performance but greater range !

So if u complaining about disconnecting on 2G you will have EVEN worse signal for 5G when in distance so therefore even more disconnections than 2G..

This is is same like with other things .. when ordinary person sees higher number of something immediately thinks it must be better.. aah well..
[Huawei Mate S] :
Mate S seems to be a really nice phone but the battery life pulls me away. That's about the only real issue I see with this device. Got a Mate 2 coming my way and it may have been out for some time now but it has a 4050 mAh battery with decent hardware specs packed along with it. A relatively balanced device if you ask me and worth every cent I spent on it.

[Huawei Mate S] jonmorris:
5GHz Wi-Fi is great when out.. and 802.11ac offers fast speeds that's ideal if you want to access local data on a network from your phone/tablet. I can't believe someone is arguing that 2.4GHz is somehow better.

It's nearly always congested and will often impact on your speed even if that's just 5-10 megabits. Of course 5GHz doesn't make your Internet connection faster, it just reduces the losses.

At IFA, like any big event, doing a scan of local Wi-Fi APs and all the people using their phone as a hotspot, you're trying to squeeze them all in on 11-13 channels and many not working nicely with each other. Do a scan of 5GHz and yes you'll now see more, but nowhere near as much. 802.11ac should also work nicer with surrounding services.

It's a major omission from the P8/Mate S that you can live with, but I am still not sure the reasoning behind it. I assume space was tight and it came down to the antenna, and Huawei having favoured two antennas for the signal+ feature. You could argue that the P8/Mate S will therefore work better than many other phones on mobile data, but I don't really see much evidence of their being a major difference. It still loses signal where I lose it on other devices, but perhaps the throughput is a bit higher.

And, when it comes to comparing the software features obviously the P8 doesn't have a fingerprint sensor, but everything else is just software. Huawei can pick and choose what to add and what to omit, just as it has done by offering different camera functions on the Honor 6 Plus and Honor 7. Likewise double tap to wake is a new addition on the P8, but they then removed the touchplus support and Endurance Mode (the Mate S doesn't have Endurance Mode either).

I do wish the phones were more popular that someone could create custom builds of the firmware to include ALL the functions. I assume each camera feature is just a module added at compilation, so the pro camera mode could be ported back to the P8 and on to the Honor 7, or any other EMUI 3.1 device?
[Huawei Mate S] XDADEVX:
It isn't arguing that 2G is better .. I explained that 2g is good for distances and has lower performance and that means lower bandwidth which results less battery drain !

THIS is the main reason why they didn't include 5g or ac..

Everything what has higher bandwidth has MORE power consumption ! Ppl just get it..

Huawei did it ON purpose because batt. is just 2700 not 4000 like on Mate 7 where 5G is..

Even you using 4G mobile network you gonna drain battery more than if you on 3G ..

2G is most power saver for smartphones..

If you using internet over mobile 4G it is draining batt. twice as fast as when you on wifi..
[Huawei Mate S] jonmorris:
Can you please provide some evidence that they left 5GHz Wi-Fi off because of battery drain? I'm pretty sure it's antenna related.
[Huawei Mate S] XDADEVX:
Omg evidence you sounds like some detective.. ☺

I don't know I logically presume as P7 doesn't support it and P8 too..

Even in wifi setting always says minimize battery when usage when wifi is on.. Soo..

If u want evidence go and contact huawei directly..
[Huawei Mate S] jonmorris:
I rather thought you knew something I didn't. I have asked people from Huawei. In fact I did at the P8 launch, and the Mate S launch (and have just spent a week in Berlin as a guest of Huawei).

As I said before, the Mate S is just a minor update of the P8. The next big thing will be November. I fully expect this will have 5GHz.
[Huawei Mate S] XDADEVX:
Well good for you that you been at the presentations .. why you didn't ask when you had the biggest chance and opportunity ?!?!?

Jeezz I would ask them if I would you..

I would really work for them.. if I would have chance to go on presentation..

I really like Mate S and am not bothered about some 5G wifi .. the main thing is that the wifi works .. you not gonna do massive downloads or wifi transfers do you?

And I am even interested in Mate 8 as I have Mate 7 .. but that is distant future.. next year or so.. and another thing is Huawei preparing P9 and they said we will be astonished about big changes and surprises .. :)
[Huawei Mate S] jonmorris:
No need to be so patronising. I wasn't out there with Huawei's hardware engineers. I was with the same people as Jack (on the exact same trip) http://www.xda-developers.com/3-days-with-the-huawei-mate-s/

The thing is, in many situations the Wi-Fi doesn't work. Are you in the middle of nowhere all the time? Ever been somewhere where you can see 50-100 Wi-Fi SSIDs? Ever tried getting a decent connection, especially on a phone with a weaker antenna and no MIMO (another limitation of the P8/Mate S)? If you have, you'll know it can be awful. What's more, if you're limited to 72Mbps then you ARE going to have lower transfer speeds if the rest of the network is faster.

Trust me, you'll also lose speeds on downloads if using congested 2.4GHz Wi-Fi over 5GHz.

And the new device I was talking about isn't the P9.

The ironic thing is that I'm not hating on the Mate S, but just pointing out a limitation and one thing that is very disappointing. Something that I'd fully expect and demand is addressed on future models, even if it means a radical redesign of the phone to accommodate the extra antennas. Nobody wants form over function.
[Huawei Mate S] Jimmy34742:
Just got it a couple of hours ago--my first new phone in 2 1/2 years because my S4 does everything I need it to do, and I've been hoping for the option to get a full-powered flagship phone that's small instead of bigger. But a serious compact is apparently never going to happen, and my S4 has accumulated some small, but annoying glitches with CM and I'll never go back to the S4's Touchwiz. For example, the camera fails, I can't receive text messages from certain sources (weird), and my favorite VPN app is incompatible with CM. So I decided to destroy my misbehaving Note 2, make my S4 the backup, and go with this Mate S. I'm liking it pretty well considering that it's not rooted. I've gone with the grayscale UI to see what kind of battery life I can get.

It does have a pretty good feel in the hand despite being bigger than my S4. I really like the fingerprint button to turn it on. I've gone totally without lockscreens for years for convenience's sake, but now I've got equal convenience with security and no accidental switch-ons in my pocket. It's rather one-handable out of the box, which is super-important to me, but it will still need my favorite app Gesture Control.
[Huawei Mate S] jonmorris:
I liked the Mate S but the poor battery and lack of 5GHz Wi-Fi means I prefer the almost identical Honor 7.

The jury is out on the camera. In some ways I think the 13MP camera performs better than the H7 one, and there's no manual/pro mode on the H7, but otherwise I think it's superior.

The screen is a bit better on the P8/Mate S with a higher contrast ratio, and it has NFC (H7 only has that on the 64GB model).

[Xperia Z3 Compact Themes and Apps] allewar01:
I was watching the announcement of the Xperia z5 today and I noticed that the official pictures of the phones would come with a interesting feature that I have never saw in Android before. The official launcher seems to adapt the colors of the status and menu bar to black and white depending of the colors of the wallpaper, similar to what happens when you put a clear wallpaper on an iPhone.

So I was curious to know if there is a way to simulate this feature today.

It's because you are entering the wrong command. "fastboot oem unlock" is used on nexus devices. The command you will have to use to unlock is this, keeping the unlock token you got from HTCDev in the same directory as the fastboot binary

Ok, hi guys... yesterday I misinterpreted some instructions before flashing Rajeev's PureX v4.1 rom... was on Niaboc79's ExistenZ Y v2.6.0... so went on, wiped and factory resetted... then, instead of formatting system/data, I formatted data AND system so obviously now it gets stuck at the Sony logo when booting because it has nothing to boot up and the only way to shut it off is with the small red button on the left side until it vibrates, resets then shuts off...

I then told myself I could simply flash a .FTF back from FlashTool, but alas, not this time... ok, I'm on D6503 Z2 with locked bootloader which is not unlockable... and now, when my phone's off and FlashTool asks to connect phone in flash mode the phone doesn't act as it normally would. when plugging usb cable, instead of the original green led, it quickly shows red, then green then nothing and on flashtool we can now see an error which is shown in the screenshot below.

Drivers are installed and I guess the problem now has to do with the bogus leds as they are the same just trying to connect in flash mode out of FlashTool... I Googled and read a lot about it yesterday on XDA and the only potential answer I could find was telling to flash a .ftf whrough FlashTool which was my first bet anyway but now, I really can't think of anything and would please appreciate your assistance about that... I hate to say this but I must admit what I'm requesting now is some help to get me through my own f*** up, please...
