[Galaxy Note5 General] ozaghloul:
Always on display doesn't require any new hardware. I guess it could be implemented on the Note 5 if they want to.
[Galaxy Note5 General] M7ammad.eb:
the two reasons that may push me to upgrade is:

• SD card slot!

•

SnapDragon CPU!!!!
[Galaxy Note5 General] blackhemi4x4:
I'll wait for the note 6. I've done there Edge phones and I actually don't like them. You may get a cool few little features with the edge portion but it distracts me too much when I read articles and whatnot with the screen slightly folding over
[Galaxy Note5 General] coldrazor:
No, smaller screen, no pen and I don't need the extra performance.
[Galaxy Note5 General] mr arson:
NOTE 6 BeEEEEOOOOTCHHHHH!
[Galaxy Note5 General] FdeKlerk:
N5

Note 5 all the way.

Had the s6 edge and all i used is the night clock.

I never used an sd card in any of my 4 android devices.

Love the big screen.

MUST HAVE: S pen!
[Galaxy Note5 General] Equaknox:
So Question..i have been reluctant to get the N5..i have the N4..is it worth me getting the N5 or wait for the N6...Hmmm
[Galaxy Note5 General] ozaghloul:
I sold my old Note 5 because I wanted a 64GB phone. I was about to pre-order the S7, but decided that would really be a downgrade in so many ways. I ended up buying a sexy 64GB titanium silver note 5, and she's with me until the Note 6 wows me over.

---------- Post added at 09:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:05 AM ----------

The N4 is a good phone too. You can hold out for the Note 6 in October. Or you can buy a Note 5 now and sell it in October for a 50+% loss in value and then get the Note 6. It really depends on how much u want to give to Samsung. I can however unequivocally say, you will love the Note 5 and feel a considerable upgrade from the Note 4.
[Galaxy Note5 General] dtaylorr:
I'm hooked on my S-Pen.
[Galaxy Note5 General] _MetalHead_:
I played with the s7 Edge the other day and no doubt it's an amazing device and super cool looking but it just doesn't offer enough of a UX upgrade to justify the money, screen downsize, and loss of S Pen. I've hated Samsung since the GS3 but they won me back in a huge way with the Note 5, losing the specialty features of the Note series is pretty much a downgrade for me at this point. I think I'll wait for the N6 which will surely be something to behold.
[Galaxy Note5 General] danb1979:
^^^

I'd say the above post has hit the nail on the head!

I've loved the Note series full stop; the rest of their phones have left me cold

I do fear though that the Note 6 could only just be more of a sideways move rather than a real step forward... They may have to bring back the SD capabilities for the Note 6 to be as popular IMO...

But I'd say it'd well full-stop here in the UK| seeing as we never got the Note 5, which across the board, has been massively frowned upon!
[Galaxy Note5 General] ozaghloul:
Another thing that sealed it for me was the camera downgrade in the S7. Now I know the big pixel debate etc, and i'm not really talking about that. I'm talking about how they changed the sensor ratio to 4:3. So now on the S7, is you want to take a 16:9 photo, the max resolution is 9.1MP (which is not good no matter how you look at it). Video suffers dramatically too if you want to record proper widescreen 16:9 videos on a 4:3 sensor.

In a world where all devices are 16:9, shooting photos and videos in 16:9 makes much more sense, and the sensor of the phone should be 16:9. Viewing back your photos and videos is done on the phone, computer, and tv, all of which are 16:9 screens.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Derpling:
After all i read about the camera, i might skip the Galaxy S7 Edge and hopefully note 6 will see some good improvements, i recon 4000mah battery and 6 inch display.
[Galaxy Note5 General] mwatson:
Let's hope they don't put the same camera sensor in the N6 that is in the S7. I've got a pre order for S7. Might cancel that and get N5. It's so much better!
[Galaxy Note5 General] AngioNicholai:
I switched only for battery and snapdragon. So far I like it, a lot. Feels better in hand. I never used spen so it doesn't bother me not having one. It not a huge upgrade from the note 5 but I do get better battery, I liked the camera on the note 5 better, I don't use edge panel, sdcard is nice to have. I have small hands and the Note 5 was not easy for me to use it with one hand, the s7 feels perfect in hand and very easy one handed use.

After having both devices.. I have to say, it's not a huge jump from the Note 5, you're only gonna upgrade to the S7 for one of its features that the Note 5 doesn't have. Size of the phone, Bigger battery, better low light camera, water proof, edge display, SD card and/or appeal of the edge display.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Derpling:
U say that u like the camera on Note 5 better than S7? why is that, what are the downsides of S7?
[Galaxy Note5 General] JellyTooth:
the only major difference that makes s7 better is gaming performance cuz its the only Samsung phone that don't throttle its speed at certain temperature

Unlike note 5 that will throtle most of 3d games and hd videos when play for over than 10 minutes
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ohhdayumm:
Many people say aosp support but isnt the s7 and edge locked boot loader?
[Galaxy Note5 General] Proday:
I went for s7 but still keeping my note 5 and trying to decide which one to sell. Only thing that keeps me on s7 side is superb battery 7h sot vs 4:30 on note 5 :( After A9 pro and 5000mah, Im really hope that note 6 will come with at least 4000battery (and that will be a perfect phone).
[Galaxy Note5 General] cricketgirl90:
Note 5 with new exynos processor + 4200mah battery + micro SD card slot = note 6.

Would be the phone to beat...
[Galaxy Note5 General] kcharng:
And add the water proof features with better camera and quick charge 3.0.

Will the L21 variant see the holy light of CM??
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] Faheemarif252:
I'm unable to make a new thread... But i wanted to ask can i lock apps with fingerprint on my honor 5x... I can't seem to find an app for that...

---------- Post added at 05:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:57 PM ----------
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] CosmoDroid:
A Marshmallow update should solve this as it uses Android's generic fingerprint API that supports 3rd party apps.
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] praxant:
Will it support L-22 variant?
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] gopinaidu77:
What is the current status of cyanogenmod development for our device ? :(
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] narangkunal:
Please port Cyanogenmod for the KIW-L22 model as well.
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] CosmoDroid:
All the 16/2 models should be supported eventually since they are almost the same. (Correct me if I'm wrong)
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] chefchuck:
Cosmo, thank you for your help in attempting to keep the threads clean.

Have you been able to build CM using the manifest provided in the dev thread? I have been unable to build in Ubuntu 15.10 and Mint 17.3 Mint gets a lot further than ubuntu.
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] CosmoDroid:
I am running Mint 17.3. And after installing all the packages mentioned in aosp and cm guides, it builds just fine. And yes, I copy-pasted my roomservice.xml to that post.
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] Bandit Development:
Maybe I should switch to Mint instead of Ubuntu 14.04. Not sure why that would have such a huge impact on building, but it's worth a shot.
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] Bandit Development:
Well, I was able to build with the latest sources today!

Is anyone else having trouble downloading apps from Google Play over wifi? I tried wiping the cache for both Google Play and Google Framework but that didn't help.
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] acruxksa:
Finally got CM12.1 built and installed.....................

I've attached a couple pics. I can confirm that dual sim functionality seems to work. I haven't tested it fully yet but can switch data/voice and sms between the two sims and l have sent txt messages and made phone calls with both. The one issue I see at the moment is that the number 2 sim defaults to 2g data and won't switch to lte.

I know this is possible with the stock huawei rom but it seems like cm12.1 only allows lte on the 1st sim slot.

**Update**

After a little more testing, I can get LTE or 3G on Sim 2 if I set Sim 1 to 2G. Only one sim on LTE or 3G at a time.
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] acruxksa:
I just flashed the open gapps version of gapps and the few installs I've done seem to have gone fine.

http://opengapps.org/?api=5.1&variant=full
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] Bandit Development:
What CPU variant did you choose? I went with ARM64; that's our device's chip right?
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] acruxksa:
Yes, arm64 and android 5.1.
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] Bandit Development:
Strange, I did the exact same except for gapps type (minimal/micro) and I can't get apps to download on wifi. (Can't test with SIM)
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] acruxksa:
I got a weird error when choosing to update some apps from the my apps screen but when i went to each individual apps playstore page and selected update, it then gave me a cancel/accept permissions dialog and installed just fine at that point. installed GPS Test and Ingress with no problems.

I used the full version of gapps. Although, I do have data via my sim, I was watching the traffic arrows during the install and they we're on the wifi icon so I assume they installed via wifi. let me turn on airplane mode and try to install something else.

* No issues installing apps from the play store via wifi with airplane mode on to disable cellular data. Just installed wink app
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] gopinaidu77:
I don't know if it's a right place to ask .

Can you say when we can expect it's release .

Fedup of stock really .

And congrats u did a great job , stock too supports LTE only on one sim and other on 2g .so it's common not an issue either .
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] gopinaidu77:
Open gapps super, full and aroma versions are not allowing to sign up even on clean wipe on stock .

I flashed and tested all (tried getting enough space by removing previous gapps (not core gapps) ) .

The other one's , full ,mini , micro , nano and Pico are working better and the RAM usage by them is pretty good.
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] Supertacomonkeyexplosion:
I am sure that is how stock runs also . 3g/lte on only one SIM. You can set which one, but only one at a time.

Also did you mean to post your phone# on your screenshots ? .......
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] gopinaidu77:
Yip. Unfortunately he havnt noticed it .

His # .
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] Bandit Development:
This is the discussion thread. ;)

I don't think anyone can give an ETA, but the unofficial builds are already pretty smooth. Wifi, (some) data/LTE, BT, etc are all working well. However, the rear camera, fingerprint sensor, etc. still are in various stages of porting.

If you want to switch to CM you can either build it yourself or I/someone else can share one of our builds.
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] elry567:
Haha I can't wait to give it a go but wasn't about to ask for ETA I'm sure it will be fine when we get it
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] ShehabElkhaligy:
Can anyone share it cause we don't have much information about android development ?
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] Bandit Development:
I'll upload my latest unofficial build in case you or anyone else wants to flash. Just to be clear, I've just built this ROM from sources that other developers actually create and maintain. Credit should go to them for this great ROM.

As usual no one but you are responsible for any damage, sadness, or failure that results from this ROM in anyway.

Here is my latest build (ONLY TESTED ON KIW-24): https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7sRlfRG34CaanJFOUZhMy0tSkE/view?usp=sharing

Gapps I and others use: http://opengapps.org/ (ARM64, 5.1.1, Full)
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] gopinaidu77:
Create a thread with warning ,just mention it's still in alpha stage and use it at own risk :)
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] Bandit Development:
I'll have to look into starting a development thread since I've never done one before. Also, I have to get all the right sources and credits before I post. I didn't think anyone wanted to wait to flash until I did all that. ;)
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] gopinaidu77:
Yip , but am fully ready to flash it . moreover it's just a min go complete the build u uploaded . it's 5 mins more to taste it .

Bandit development , it's a huge thanks for you .You made my day posting you latest build . expecting more support in future :) ;)
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] Bandit Development:
I'm glad to help, but don't forget to thank the many devs like [MENTION=4222965]deadman96385[/MENTION] and [MENTION=258824]cos[/MENTION]droid, along with many others who made this possible.
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] elry567:
How would we go about getting recovery IMG for flashing this
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] gopinaidu77:
100 thanks for them , and I just tried flashing it on L22 .

Ended up with an error in updater script .

It says , The build for the device :kiwi

You device is :

Error 7 in updated script and process exit .

Can I try editing updater script and flash it ?

Can u say If there were any chances of working it on L22 ?

Why cause I am really eager to taste cm12.1 on my device and my bad luck now .

Any help is much appreciated .plz :(
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] elry567:
U need cwn or certain recovery to flash? saw it in earlier posts
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] gopinaidu77:
Am on twrp .The thing is product ID miss match . just like our dev made it for kiwi and my device is HNKIW-Q

. just edit in updater script and now continue for flash .

#Bandit development , Bro any msg from you about what am going to do ?
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] Bandit Development:
There is TWRP available for most KIW variants in the development section. I used TWRP to flash over stock after wiping.

---------- Post added at 04:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:20 PM ----------

I'd suggest editing the updater script to your variant's model number. I have a kiw-24; do you have a kiw-21 or kiw-22?
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] gopinaidu77:
It's L22 and its like this here . and i added same to updater script .

ro.product.device= HNKIW-Q

Let me check my luck ;) .
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] elry567:
I have kiw-24 with twrp 3.0 the newest one posted for flashing cm roms
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] elry567:
This is why I thought u needed cwm recovery sorry for the double post
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] gopinaidu77:
Thanks My bro #Bandit development ,

I edited the updater script but no luck .failed 6 times and finally removed whole device check and then flashed it .flashed gapps stock

It booted and working great .only bug found with camera .but everything seems working fine and tested .

Just waiting for camera fix .
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] acruxksa:
I kept getting error 7 when trying to flash with twrp. Thanks to hondajohn88's suggestion, I was able to make things work by fastboot flashing the cwm recovery, however it seemed like a very erratic process because I had the CMrom.zip on the external sdcard and cmrecovery couldn't access it. I had to adb sideload the new rom, but although the process seemed to work great, rebooting kept taking me right back to cmrecovery. At this point I rebooted to the bootloader and reflashed twrp, moved the cmrom.zip to the internal sdcard and reflashed it via twrp. everything worked fine after that.

Since then, I've made a nandroid backup and have switched between my modded emui and the cmrom a couple times without issue.

I've run antutu benchmarks on CM12.1 and the scores are nearly identical to emui scores (expected since they share the same kernel or at least nearly the same). However, CM12.1 does feel a lot snappier in terms of the touch/swipe interface and app load times.

---------- Post added at 09:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:13 AM ----------

Nope didn't mean to. :D thx!

---------- Post added at 09:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:20 AM ----------

So, that should answer whether it will work on the KIW-22 variant. :good::good:
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] gopinaidu77:
Yip It supports All variants Now ! Just check these benchmark scores with yours .Are they fine ?
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] acruxksa:
Looks pretty similar. Results are close to what we see with EMUI but as mentioned, I think this is expected since I believe the kernel is the same or very similar. I would expect things to improve as the software gets dialed in.
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] gopinaidu77:
Yes , there is a huge problem with camera . As of my knowledge , fingerprint is not yet implemented( I hope) .

I still use it as a daily drive. Am not a camera freek but till them I will use my moto ;)
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] mani0608:
Did you try any third party camera app to see if that works?
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] Bandit Development:
Tried other camera apps and only the front camera works on every one.
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] STEF SPICA FR:
Hello, could you tell me if build of CyanogenMod will support all variants of honor 5x? thank you so much for your hard work. Stéphane...
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] gopinaidu77:
Yes they supports .
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] Th3_Dark_Knight:
There ain't much difference between the variants, except radio. So you can expect all variants to be supported.
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] ShehabElkhaligy:
Thanks alot sir i will try it on KII-L21 after rooting and inform here
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] narangkunal:
Please, can any developer bring CM 13 to KIW-L22 version?
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] cyrusalmighty:
I think Honor must release MM 6.0 kernel and sources first. Once released someome can build the CM 13.
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] narangkunal:
So, I think MM 6.0 has not yet been released for Honor 5X globally? Because, I haven't recieved the OTA update here in India. And Honor India told me official MM 6.0 will only be available in May '16. It's a long wait!
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] mani0608:
I fear its too much to ask for now, but did anyone try installing xposed framework over this CyanogenMod. Does it work?
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] gopinaidu77:
Its not meant for daily drive ,there were many minor issues behind the camera and fingerprint sensors.

Just wait for official announcement by the devs instead of alpha builds .

And I haven't tested flashing xposed modules .

There were chances for xposed to work on cm12.1 . Test it but make a twrp backup first .
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] ZeRo2o9:
Hasn't been released at all they are barely going to test for us version
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] Zakaria.R:
Don't really think it's necessary, I have an Xperia m which was abandoned on JB 4.3 but thanks to the Grand [MENTION=4343949]PecanCM[/MENTION] that device was the first Xperia to get official cm13, you can believe if by luck this developer chooses to support the honor 5x I would purchase it with my eyes closed
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] mani0608:
I can confirm that xposed works really well. I have tried xstana and falt styled colored bars. Both of them works awesome.
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] narangkunal:
I hope that I could get official CM 13 in about six months because Honor 5X with CM will be the perfect phone!
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] gopinaidu77:
Yes ,cm13 (marshmallow) has doze for better battery optimization and also has best ram usage .

It gives better battery on it. Cm13 (why not cm14 too? ) Will benifit honor 5x alot .

Over all its in the hands of ours devs .
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] narangkunal:
Yeah, CM 14 in maybe a year, but I want a stable CM 13. Come on devs!
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] gopinaidu77:
As soon as we get cm12.1 officially , it won't take much time for getting cm13 . Am sure about it .
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] jadephyre:
First CM12.1 has to become stable enough to be a daily driver, how long that will take remains to be seen. Hopefully it'll go faster than it did for the last non-Nexus device I bought.
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] Zakaria.R:
I recently read in a thread dedicated to moto x play that devs plan to support that device up until 2018 and maybe longer, that's what I wanna see here, hope it will be so...
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] CosmoDroid:
Seems like the developers are waiting for the MM sources. Personally, I wouldn't mind few months wait for cm-13. :p
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] jadephyre:
I don't, but i'm not proficient enough to build 12.1 myself, so i'm forced to wait and use the icky skin Huawei graces us with :p
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] CosmoDroid:
A lot of changes have been merged recently.

Maybe we can expect an official announcement soon! :D

Edit: Damn! It's already up! :p
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] awesomeandroid:

[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] STEF SPICA FR:
Hi CosmoDroid,

where have you seen an official announcement?

Does "front camera" mean the one facing the user or the one facing the world?
[Honor 5X Guides, News, & Discussion] Bandit Development:
Front camera is the one facing the user. Also, both cameras work in [MENTION=3857343]crpalmer[/MENTION]'s latest build.
