[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheUltrametricSpace:
It is a Glass body phone! What did you expect! Seriously.

Edit: The Nexus 6P costs twice as much and fails just as bad. Keep that in mind before you judge.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] tnttrx:
Well, seriously, I expected it would be similar to some other Glass body phones which are lower class and even cheaper:

[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheUltrametricSpace:
The OnePlus X has an SD 801 inside and less fancy hardware. Could be that OnePlus saved money on the hardware and innovation part.

But then again, if you just wanted to say:There is no perfect phone and certainly not a cheap perfect phone. Than yeah, that is right.

Just because it fits this topic perfectly:

The same guy who made the MI5 video called the 600€ Nexus 6P a joke.

[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] silverblack:
Exactly you would have expected the Mi5 to fair better.

Instead it broke easier than a biscuit.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kulwinder Singh:
but it doesn't break in this video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3F5gRvNJKQ
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] silverblack:
No but it does in this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d2jav7UdQtE like a biscuit.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] NikoBon:
Well, Mi5 has only one aluminium frame. They had to sacrifice rigidity of the phone to make it cheaper.

The phone has top components, though, so I think it's still one of the best Android phones (if not the best) in its price range.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mxplorer:
Get a sleek looking case and you're fine. Since i live in Myanmar i payed the same price for it as they cost in China. So i have to handle it more careful then normal. Like a Chinese vase?

If you like rugged, get the Redmi Note 3 snapdragon. Fast, though and heavy.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] tnttrx:
so, here we are again...

this time, phone has SD 820 and even more fancy hardware, so OnePlus did not save money on the hardware and innovation part.

also, phone is in the same price range as Mi5, and in europe it's even cheaper (+official support).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PZ8W_g6Vvk

it seems that phone really does not have to break as a cracker, after all.

be careful with your Mi5. ;)
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheUltrametricSpace:
And where is One Plus now? SD 820 and more expensive than the Mi5.

The time when one plus was a flagship killer are long gone. One Plus right now is too expensive to be budget, and too bad to be premium.

The difference is that the Mi5 is true budget, compared to the OP3.

What One Plus released now with the OP3 is: either go for budget SD 820 -> Mi5 or spend 50 to 100 USD more and get a real flagship over the OP3... don't bring one plus on board after the current release.

Don't live in the past, the OP1 is long gone and old.

Yet if you want to compare you may also compare stuff to the Nokia 3210, that's a "bend proof phone" ... yes I am kidding. Don't live in the past.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] tnttrx:
thx for clarifying.

I would like to give you +20 Experience and +5 Prestige for that, but I'm struggling to find those options on this not-so-advanced forum.

anyways, as far as I can see, this is present:

Mi5 vs OP3 - one breaks, another doesn't

so, there's absolutely no need to live in the past for anybody.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] danilofrias:
Whats the point here? Mi5 failed, ok so what? (we can´t have all)

buy an OP3 and go to the right thread? There must be a "strong OP3 bend test" thread.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheUltrametricSpace:
Just hit the thanks button, no problem at all..

And neither the Nexus 6P, nor the Mi5, nor the OP3 break under daily use.
[General Questions and Answers] vongola1997:
Hello guy I was able to build cm12.1 for my xperia z3c

But now I want to change the stock theme with a custom theme, which I will build with android studio.

My problem is now that i will get a "customtheme.apk" and I dont know with which file I have to replace with in the cm source directory. I only know how to change build.prop before building the rom (android/system/out/.......z3c/system/build.prop)

Unfortunatly I couldnt find the directory where the "theme files" were.

So my question for you guys is, do you know where the directory is? Or am I totaly in a wrong path and I have to replace it with framework-res.apk or something like that. Or have i to edit framework-res.apk?

As you can see I am completly lost guys. I need your help to proceed.
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] gsmyth:
This sounds awesome, they're going all out with this, cant wait to see some hands-on/reviews. Hard to believe, 6GB RAM devices are already starting to surface, when 4GB is still really just begun to appear in the big flagships.

It doesn't have nfc, but still, it's a really impressive device. 5.5" screen and 3500mah battery and it would be my perfect phone!
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SlyUK:

It has good hardware at a very convincing price....I am definitely going for it...rest on our awesome xda developers who will anyways develop custom roms for the phone(hopefully it doesnot have bootloader unlocking restrictions like we have in mi 5)...my next phone for sure....
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Tiz92:
If it has development i will buy it I think.
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] white43:
Again this will depend on whether our developers decide to buy this or not. It is without doubt the best specced phone for the price!!!
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] gsmyth:
Just seen this device in an article earlier as well, this is the LITE version!!!?? It seems to be listed on oppomart for pre-order and is running a stock like rom, although the pictures may be just mockups and so I wouldnt rely on them. Theres some serious hardware on offer for a fraction of the money of the big brands. Obviously it probably wont have the same amount of development as the ZUK, but looks to be an impressive device nonetheless.

Those aren't the phone. Those are Vernee branded.

You want the Lenovo ZUK Z2 Pro.
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] gsmyth:
Yes sorry, I know its a different phone, meant to say its off-topic (while still on the topic of chinese brand devices!).

They are both packing 6GB of RAM as well.
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] white43:
Ah with you buddy! That's a good phone as well!! My only reservation on that one is the processor. Lack of Snapdragon means lack of mods, or so I'm led to believe.
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] gsmyth:
Yes, definitely prefer the Snapdragon myself, but I could be swayed by with the right price! ;)

Anyone knows the material of the lens on the backside?

I really don't hope a plastic type at least scratch resistant mineral glass. of course sapphire would be best but i doubt it.

And wondering durability. Saw a test of the Xiaomi Mi5. flimsy as f#*k.

Waiting for some more camera test for Z2 and Z2 pro. I am not convinced yet. Saw some pics and they looked a bit blurry..

Hello ZUK 2 PRO Fans..

Yes, I just got my ZUK 2 Pro 128GB version phone today.. This device was purchased from ZUK's official website in China.

It doesn't have google play store and services; how do I install all that safely? It has all the typical Chinese apps and it does not have multiple languages other than Chinese & English...

Please HELP!

Sincerely.. Gabriel.Macht
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] MacLaughlin:
You can install play services directly from the app center.
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] sannka:
I got my ZUK Z2 Pro yesterday from the official ZUK page and spent some time setting everything up.

Language:

English for me is no problem, about 98% is pure and good English, just some left over parts of Chinese in not very important areas in my opinion. So if you speak English the language will be no concern.

Google Play Store:

Unlike [MENTION=3709390]MacLaughlin[/MENTION] I was not able to install Google Play Store from the Chinese App Center but many other Apps can be downloaded via that App Center.

Anyway, installing via APKmirror worked perfectly fine. Thats the way I used:

1. Search for Google Play services 9.0.83 on apkmirror.com

2. Download Google Play services 9.0.83 version: "9083448 - arm64 + arm - Android 6.0+ - 480dpi" (you can check with "Droid Hardware Info 1.0.3" (available on apkmirror) if your Architecture & DPI is correct)

3. Install Google Play services

5. Download and install Download Google Play Store 6.7.13.E-all [0] 2920566 (also available on apkmirror)

Done. It works fine for me and all my Apps are back on the phone.

Battery:

Can't give you a proper review but in my feeling up to know the battery is quite nice. Used the phone continuously for about 10-12 hours yesterday installing all the apps. Still had about 30 to 40 % in the evening. But I have to add that I had to recharge my old phone twice per day, so I might have a different feeling for battery life. Still recharge is quite fast, up to over 90 in about half an hour.

ZUK Z2:

I read a couple of time, that people are interested in the Z2. But be aware that it has no B20. So full LTE connection is not given in some European countries.

Does anyone know how to root? There are no tutorial published yet right?
[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] MacLaughlin:

[Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Prockkaii:

Hi,

I am trying to use my TyTn II to connect to an Adobe Connect session. I have seen pictures of it on the net, but when I try, the device complaines about flashplayer version (it should be higher than 6.035) or get stucked in a script. As I understand the PocketPC player is 7.0 and supports scripts. What happens as stated above, is that after I logged on to the server the script seems to get stucked in some loop or whatever and a message complaining about a script that do not behave pops up. The TyTn gets slow and tired until I stop the script. Any ideas? I should be able to do it. Maybe a register tweak? Use Flash Lite 3.0? How do I get hold of it? I hope (and know) that someone has solved the problem already. Please enlighten me!

Cheers

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theduke7:
Hi Everyone,

this technically not a problem, because my phone works fine (so far), but i had this before on Xperia Z

while on a normal Stock rom the phone boots normally when recovery installed it shows the green light...etc,

but when i flashed a custom rom recently , a red led light appears with the sony logo (or seconds before) and then disappears and the green recovery led comes on...

everything else except that red light is OK though, i remember on Z this disappeared when i flashed a stock rom with Flashtool,

any idea what it's? and if it's something i should worry about? and if there's someway to fix it without flashing a rom again.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theduke7:
can anyone help with this?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beetle84:
I wouldnt worry about it. My d6653 does the same thing.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theduke7:
thank you, i ndid dome flashing (flashtool to LP then again to MM) i noticed it happens after i wiped data cache and delvik (i think it's data) ..strange, because i did have this also on z2 (and long time ago on Z) but it only happened if i wiped system... i think it's wipe related, i asked because i think if i flashed something through flashtool (not an entire rom) it might fix it, I'm not sure what....

thanks for the reply
[LeEco Le 1S Guides, News, & Discussion] Rakesh_chandra:
Being a part-time online trader and a full time business man on the move, I have always been worried about losing my phone or my information falling into the wrong hands. Not only do I have to keep my information secure, but I also need access to my online trading accounts at a moment’s notice.

While I have been pretty happy with the conventional security that a 4-digit pin code offers (some phones use lock patterns), there have been times where I lost a good opportunity to make a killing on the commodities market because I was unable to access my accounts fast enough due to the security lock and pin code. I recently read that a person unlocks his devices 110 times a day, I probably unlock my phone at least twice than the average.

Recently, I saw a Le 1s advertisement on Flipkart and I learnt that it had fingerprint scanning technology and I saw this as an answer to my prayers. From the little I understand and some quick google reference, I found out that fingerprint identification technology in phones had the answers to all my security concerns. Since no two finger prints are same, the automated authentication biometric of Le 1s allows just its rightful owner to access the phone. Since identification is based on the fingerprint scanner, it also removes the need to remember a password there by providing an accurate and reliable way to unlock the phone.

One interesting feature of Le 1s is that the sensor comes with a 6H hardness anti-scratch mirror that allows the finger print to be read without any issues.

As I tried to unlock my phone, I found the sensor enables both flash recognition and identification accuracy immediately and effectively as promised and it eliminates the need for PIN codes or patterns to be memorised.

Now with quick access to my online trading and banking accounts, I can truly say that I have all information at my fingertips.

[Remix OS for PC] jhannbernas:
Hi,

I cannot still boot to remix os even after fresh install of the newest version (April 12). This is thr same problem i encounter after downloading the OTA previously. Im still stuck at root@remix.

I can successfully boot on remix when the first beta version on my Acer v5-573G 64bit uefi.

Please help what to do to bypass this error. Thanks!
[Remix OS for PC] putr4s:
Does your laptop have NVIDIA graphics? If so you can edit menu.lst (or grub.cfg if it's not there, I'm not sure how it would work for an uefi system) in the RemixOS installation folder and add nouveau.modeset=0 at the end of the kernel ... line.
[Remix OS for PC] jhannbernas:
Will try, yes my laptop is on nvidia graphics. thanks
[Remix OS for PC] Xkirnel99:
So, it work ??
[Remix OS for PC] jhannbernas:
Trying now but i include i915.modeset=1. Im still waiting if it will boot. Not sure how long it normally stuck on this screen.

May i know what does nouveau.modeset and i915.modeset mean and what does it do?

Thanks
[Remix OS for PC] jhannbernas:
Tried everything but not working. Both menu.lst and gtub.cfg is present on remix os installation folder. Tried to put it on both files but didnt work.
[Remix OS for PC] putr4s:
When the root prompt shows up, try typing "rmmod nouveau" (without quotes) and press enter. If that doesn't get you to the desktop then the issue is something else. You might want to try adding i915.modeset=1 along with nouveau.modeset=0 too.
[Remix OS for PC] jhannbernas:
Tried to make it work by just putting nouveau.modeset=0 (press 'e' on boot selection). But booting to my windows broke. Good thing i managed to make it work again by editting the windows params and point it to correct bootx64.efi.

It seems that it was overwritten to remix os bootx64.efi for some reason i dont know.
