Downgrade is not possible even after wiping system, data and cache?
[Nexus 6  General] najoor:
It is possible. The original question was whether it is possible without losing data.
[Nexus 6  General] yankeesfan714:
So if I wipe system, data and cache would I be able to? Is there any other steps? It won't wipe internal storage right?
[Nexus 6  General] akoppes:
Normally if you wipe/reformat the data partition, it will also delete the internal storage.

But you can make a backup of internal storage first en restore after flashing the new image.

Anyone having issues setting up Google voice always on? It force closes every time you try to train your voice to it.
[Nexus 6  General] jmcorlett:
having the same issue....leaving the kernel stock seems to be okay...but where is the fun in that? Also audio mods like RC1 will also cause it to happen. For me it seemed to be about a week ago that it happened so I'm wondering if the new SuperSU has something to do with it.
[Nexus 6  General] rbedell:
Any reason why I try to apply these but the value would remain blank? Like it doesn't have access? Also with the processer values same issue.
[Nexus 6  General] angiest:
I'm afraid I don't know.

Download via chrom browser . it is very easy to download . other browsers ? Very difficult.

Thank you najoor. My phone running Android n now. Only Google keyboard fc. I changed to SwiftKey and no fc. Very smooth rom. I love it.
[Nexus 6  General] Smittyzz:
I'm not sure if anyone else has but I've gotten led working on preview 4. Gives me serious always on issues but I think I found the right trick to it lol
[Nexus 6  General] mangalo2004:
If you train it with the stock kernel, you can then flash a custom kernel afterwards and it will still work.
[Nexus 6  General] Smittyzz:
My issue is I have the preview 4, I am also enabling led with a flash able zip, enabling adaway with a flash able zip, and then SuperSU beta, then the kernel. Sometimes voice always on disables and force closes until I wipe system catches and reflash all my files.

The strange thing is sometimes it works, sometimes I flash another file and it disables it then I'll flash another and it turns back on.

It's like if I flash the files in the right order one at a time it will work, but it's being a huge pain.

Edit: your right on the kernel, but after every restart it shuts itself off and force closes. Kinda blows but I guess I'm gonna live without knock on

If anyone wants there led back the flash able zip for 5.0 works, been using it since preview 2

Edit 3: I definitely have to install crap a certain way or always on turns off first reboot on me every time then instant crashing.

I almost feel I could get the kernel to work but I don't wanna take the chances of having to reflash everything 3 times to get everything to stick and play together

Didn't have issues till experimental kernel and multirom hit my phone

Downgrading back to android 6

guys - any special instructions for downgrading or should I simply get the stock ROM for 6.0 and do a flash-all at the bootloader?

Thx

I already know about poweramp. I want to know if anything comes close to it or if there is such an app out there that you can pre amp the sound and make it louder and customize the base. Something similar to Viper4android

Would that mess with for example the license verification for the poweramp unlocker? I don't want to cause any issues if I install anything
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Chrisxxx123:
Probably not. It'll be carried over. Well. There must be a significant difference in volume and quality though as mentioned above. How does it sound
[HTC 10 Accessories] AndroiderM:
Got my Poetic Affinity Case in today and figured I'd write a quick review. These poetic cases are very similar to UAG in looks and design but for 1/3 of the price. They are single peice hard poly carbonate and very ridged. Overall a nice design with a clear back to show off the beauty of your aluminum backed phone, offer a nice lip around screen for medium drop protection. My only issue is that the buttons are a little stiff but I suspect they will break in over time. I'm satisfied with my purchase and feel like it was a really good deal at around $10. It plays well with my spigen crystal screen protector and offers a good grip and feel in hand. If you guys have any questions feel free to ask. Sorry for the quality of the pics all I has was an s3 to take them.
[HTC 10 Accessories] Jaws4God:
how is the grip on it?

I had the Spigen Bumper Premium and it was still too slick for me..

Right now i have this case.. Zizo armor.. Super grippy.. but had to modify the power opening.. plus it squares off the phone and doesn't really show the HTC Beauty..
[HTC 10 Accessories] codeglitch:
i got a Poetic Affinity case, it's a PIA to take it off if you want to, after the second time i took it off never put it on again, using Orzly FlexiCase now
[HTC 10 Accessories] Jaws4God:
so other than it was hard to get off.. did you like the case? grip? feel? look?
[HTC 10 Accessories] codeglitch:
in all honesty the case looks and feels good, great grip, my 2 issues with it was the taking it off because its harder "plastic", and the other issue was that the case doesn't exactly fit on top of the back of the phone, so it gets a lot of dust under there and you're gonna want to clean it.

If you can manage to take it off better than i could i would recommend the case, makes the phone a lite more bulkier but shouldn't be a problem, it wasn't for me.

I just got the Spigen rugged armor today, it's really great too, using it now!

IMO:

Poetic: good protection and good looks, still showing off your metal

Spigen Armor: good protection and good looks, no metal show off :P

Orzly crystal: not as good protection (thinner) but still good, and very transparent

Sorry for mentioning other cases on this thread but those are the 3 i got and i can give my opinion on
[HTC 10 Accessories] Jaws4God:
no problem. i already ordered the poetic. looks like it should arrive monday.. just hoping its a great case for me.. im very picky lol
[HTC 10 Accessories] Jaws4God:
well my case came today...

First Impressions:

Good:

1. Case feels premium.

2. Phone has great grip and texture.

3. Cutout for charger seems to be large enough for all my chargers, but will test more later.

4. Clear plastic is thick and doesn't have any tinting.

5. Cutouts for camera and speakers and mics seem perfect.

6. Buttons work great and have grip on them.

Bad:

1. Headphone cutout is small, should work for standard headphone plugs, but for a computer speaker plug in, it will not fit.. i may need to modify. :(

It will be interesting to see how the case does after a few days of testing... hopefully it will hold up as I really like the style and feel.

Thank you.
[HTC 10 Accessories] Sc0ttyP:
Shadows?

Came across this case the other day in my internet travels looking for something similar to my Supcase Unicorn Beetle Hybrid for my M8. The only case SC has for the 10 looks like a gawd damn brick. Ok for some, just not me. So, my question is, can anyone please confirm whether photos taken in this case cause any kind of blur, or shadow, from the cut out. I'm not talking about the known issues with lens flare here too, just to clarify. I've never owned a clear case but have heard of some that do cause a shadow (I am assuming a reflection from flash off the clear cut out).

Cheers.
[HTC 10 Accessories] Jaws4God:
since they are completely cut out, should not have any interference.
[HTC 10 Accessories] Sc0ttyP:
Ok. So, photos all good then?
[HTC 10 Accessories] Jaws4God:
yep, should be no issues..

see attached picture. cutout is d

clearly around camera, flash and Laser focus..
[HTC 10 Accessories] Sc0ttyP:
Rightyo, and still thumbs up on the case?
[HTC 10 Accessories] Jaws4God:
only complaint after 1 day use was the headphone plug too small for the larger plugs.. like for computer speakers.. so i used a round file and widened it..

so now its perfect.. great grip. love how it shows off the phone.. slim and shaped like phone.
[HTC 10 Accessories] Sc0ttyP:
That's exactly what i'm looking for. Thanks for the replies J4G, and the review.
[HTC 10 Accessories] Sc0ttyP:
Hey man, I was just about to purchase from Amazon, thought i'd read through some of the reviews and some people are advising where the camera cut out is, the case sits up off the phone a little (i.e. not flush with phone), allowing debris in through the cut out. Looks flush from your last pic. Is this true?? I really don't mean to sound pedantic want to make sure I'm happy with case before I pull the trigger cause there's none to be found in Oz and I don't want to have screw around with returns.
[HTC 10 Accessories] Jaws4God:
from what i can see, that does appear true... I haven't seen much dust and debris get in there.. however i have only had it on a few days. :silly:

I will say that a lot of people said they are a pain to get off.. however I can attest that mine is like any other case.. it does hold on well, but just peel back a corner and then work on another corner, it pops right out.. so should be easy to clean..
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoopZor:
For the moment I run pure nexus with full satisfaction, I get a screen on time of 5 hours, which is great but longer is always better.

Is there a rom with very good battery control, kernel tweaked and all?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feis:
No
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
There's no such thing. What you're asking is a subjective question, it depends on the user. The only way to find out which is best

for you

is through your own testing.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exad:
If I might add, attaining the best SOT is mostly about what you're willing to sacrifice.. performance, brightness, connectivity, etc.

Hence, a lot of this will be relative to how you use your device as Heisenberg already stated.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
You have the Nexus now? I remember you from the Evita days, back when I was timmaaa.

Thanks mate, been a mod for a little over a year now. Good to see you around these parts :)
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snoprosledneck88:
Everyone's milage varies. I'm on PN right now and will hit 5hrs sot today. Been off the charger for over 24 hrs too. That is something that people fail to mention sometime. On a fresh charge and constant use I'm sure I could hit between 6 or 7 sot. I just don't have that much to look at haha. PN is a good stable place to be to get great battery life and great performance. I often find myself looking for that ultimate set up and it becomes hard to judge because I use my phone differently everyday. Hope this helps
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leondestiny:
these kind of questions still exist.. XD well that is XDA for you!

to the OP's question, mate if i were you i would just try out a couple of different roms to test out the battery life.

(sorry no n6p user here, but i think you should give Roms a try that come with cmte, roms that come cm source might give you abit more battery life.) 5 hours sot is already very good , good luck!
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] conspiracyBE:
I know there are a lot versus threads popping up (OP3 vs Samsung S7, OP3 vs Nexus 6P,.. ), but I would really like to hear your opinions about the ZTE Axon 7.

https://www.zteusa.com/axon7/

http://xdaforums.com/axon-7

I'm very interested in the Oneplus 3, but the Axon 7 looks so promising.

I really don't understand why this device isn't getting more attention. (Bad marketing?)

It is on many point familiar with the OP3. But imo has more interesting features.

They are releasing a 6GB/128GB model and a 4GB/64GB model.

- Same Snapdragon 820 CPU

- Same Adreno 530 GPU

- Both are Dual SIM

- Same screen size

Pro's for the ZTE Axon 7

MicroSD support

1440 x 2560 resolution display instead of 1080 x 1920.

20MP camera (can't really compare the quality)

Quality dual front facing speakers

Larger battery (not by much. 3140 vs 3000 mAh)

Pro's for the Oneplus 3

Great community and custom rom support.

Comparison between the two on GSMArena

I also prefer the fingerprint sensor on the back, but I admit this is personal preference.

The only thing I'm afraid of would be the possible lack of a community.

So please tell me. Why should I choose the Oneplus 3?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] hunhool:
I personally don't know anything about zte development here on xda(my bad) the specs are look really promising.

But think about it. It's only 140mAh more battery for a 2K display...and don't want to mention the phone's own UI(talking about the optimization)

It is a bad marketing from ZTE, I haven't heard about the device at all....

The sd card is just unnecessary for the 6gb/128gb IMHO.

When is this phone gonna be released? Interested abou the price and want to know if it will have a European version....
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] conspiracyBE:
It is a AMOLED display, so battery shouldn't be too affected.. They are aiming for google daydream support after all and a resolution like that is required.

The MicroSD slot is a hybrid SIM-slot. Unnecessary since I will be using 2 sims, and like you said, 128GB is more than enough storage. But useful when I think of flashing a new rom.

If I read correct the release should be somewhere in mid June - begin Juli.

So hopefully not much longer.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] noobtoob:
I have been searching for a phone for at least 6 months and this phone was on my list.

I compared the OP 3, Axon 7, and the Zenphone 3 deluxe.

All very similar in specs besides the screen on ZTE axon 7. Both zenfone 3 d and axon have the front facing speakers, but also both start at a higher price tag for what I consider not important enough features for me to justify the jump.

The oneplus 3 has everything on the inside the other two do, yet an appealing price tag, and developer community is not just supported, but encouraged. This made the phone a win in my book. I can manage fine with a decent display and lose the dual front facing speakers (which I really wanted). It literally depends on how much your willing to spend for what is important to you.

Either way, the ZTE seems to be a fine phone, and is a top contender for anyone. I just didn't want to pay more for a less ram/storage option over what the op3 offered me.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] conspiracyBE:
Keep in mind that the ZTE offers a free extended warranty program 'Passport 2.0'.

A similar warranty program for the OP3 costs you $80 extra.

Axon 7 + Passport 2.0 (2 years warranty and free out-of-warranty repairs): $450

OnePlus3 + On-Guard Plus 24 (2 years protection similar to Passport 2.0): $399 + $80 = $479.

But yeah.. not that I was going to buy that extra warranty for the OP3. So I get your point.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] atrix4gtransamgta:
Coming from the 10, a lot of the Axon 7s features really struck a chord with me, like the dual FFS, and their insane attention to detail when it comes to headphone audio.

However, aside from that I can think of like 0 reason to pick it over the 10 or the OP3. Why am I going to OP3/7 after owning a 10? Great question. I just have an obsession with trying new phones. Maybe an addiction.

Not sure either will stay, but I love trying them all.

There is also the ZUK Z2 Pro which has a 5.2" Full HD screen.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] anessie:
Last time I took a look at the ZTE Axon 7 this was what I learned:

- ZTE = active in USA (outside their home markets), Passport 2.0 program applies to USA (afaik), ZTE is looking to expand their activity in EU but so far they don't even really have an active EU site (again afaik).

- I have contacted ZTE about EU availability, they did "not know anything" at the time, ZTE UK even tweeted Q4 release in UK (in 4 months maybe the new nexus is the new star).

twitter.com/ZTE_UK/status/743094792049987584

- The 'normal' Axon 7 has huge top/bottom bezels, the premium (6GB version, touch force, wood inlay, capacitive buttons on the bottom) is again no information on if it would launch in USA/EMEA markets (maybe China only). I was very interested in the premium for a short time but I have serious doubts they won't put a 500+ $/€ price tag on it, which blows past my price point for a "Chinese Brand" phone.

Pretty much the same applies to the Zuk Z2 Pro which is only available in EU region through import (so far) and that raises the price as well.

Now all this was last week, maybe fresh info points to other availability/launch dates.

tl:dr: For USA Axon7 is a OP3 contender, for EU we'll have to wait (for months possibly).
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] rickyx32:
I've tried ZTE in the past, non of the ZTE devices I've owned have ever received updates or timely ones, and the XDA community for these devices just doesn't exist. My dad's Alcatel phone recently died (another garbage brand), and I decided to get him ZTE phone. I knew that I shouldn't have, and I was right, the capacitive keys just stopped working on it, and my dad is currently using it without them until I get him a better phone... Just avoid the following brands BLU, Alcatel, ZTE, ASUS (for smartphones), and the myriad of cheap Chinese brands out there. Either the XDA community will not exist, and/or they do not support their devices, and/or the hardware quality control is piss poor. The only Chinese brands I trust are Oneplus, Xiaomi, and Huawei.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] TheDriller:
You actually trust xiaomi? The Mi5 is the most flimsy phone I have ever felt lmao...

I should tell you. This phone was given to me for development purposes. 1st time in the pocket... Cracked screen
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] rickyx32:
The only Chinese branded smartphones I've owned from the brands I recommended have been the OPO and the 6P. To this day both of those stand as the only two smartphones that I call the best I've ever had. As far as Xiaomi goes, I've been very happy with their Yi action cam and the random home electronic devices, trinkets, and accessories I've bought from them. Hell, I even use their huge mouse and keyboard pads on my gaming rig now. I've heard many good things about their smartphones, but I trust you in your assessment of them, smartphones are a lot harder to pull off.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] conspiracyBE:
Awesome. Thanks for the feedback!

Guess I'm going to wait a bit longer for the release announcement, but as it looks now, the OP3 looks like the better choice when you're in the EU.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Sujejsjejej:

I think a big determining factor for me is well the zte axon 7 be be rootable? We know the one plus 3 will be but many of other zte phones weren't rootable.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] GCbard:
I was on the fringe between buying op3 or waiting for the axon 7. I decided on the op3 for two reasons. , Capacitive buttons, 6gb ram and dev support. OK 3 reasons. I am French American and travel to France a lot. I looked the ZTE for the front speakers and full Eu and USA LTE bands. But i decided on the op3. Excited to receive it.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] wayne_sk:
My reason for OP3 was minimal bloatware, and presece of google services. Now this is kinda something you better dont expect right out of the box with the chinese phones. You can install google services, yes, but there might be some issues here and there. The Axon7 is a beast. But wheb you look at Axon Elite, which is sold for $200 and has not that great support well...

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] 2x4:
one huge PRO for the OP3 is OxygenOS, which is near stock vs the touchwize-like modifications on the ZTE Axon
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] QuantumRZ:
Pro's:

- Really need 2k display ? (Google Daydream also applys for thr Oneplus 3)

- Micro SdCard is for Musik&Pictures&Videos etc. If you have a lot okay (64gb modell). But 64Gb is enougth imo

- More Battery doesn't mean better batterylife (+2K display uses more)

I'll recommend you the OnePlus 3 after using it for a Month.

Pro's for the OnePlus 3:

- Really easy unlocking bootloader (one fastboot command) + warrenty

- Great Dev Community

- Great Stock OS

- Rocking Fingerprintsensor

(- I like the Design more, it just looks more premium imo )

- really big Pro is DASH Charge

OnePlus 3 - OP3Lite | systemless root | xposed v86 ?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] robstunner:
I have both and right now, I'd have to say unless you need a SLIGHTLY better camera, or stronger cell reception then your better off with the Axon 7. Speaker, DAC, screen, build and battery are all better on the Axon. in places im seeing signals of -120 to -123db on my Axon, the OnePlus is at -116 to 118. Even with that said, the Axon still takes the win on battery life.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] biglilsteve:
I've had the A7 for about a week and a half and am returning it.

It has the speakers, yes. This is why I bought it. The DAC was disappointing for me though. I don't use my phone with wired headphones. I have Beats Solo 2 wireless. I do have to plug it into my car through aux for music and there is no perceptible advantage in volume or clarity over my op3.

The battery life is better. But the op3 already gets me through a day with at least 4 hours sot.

The camera is horrible unless outside on a bright sunny day.

The UI is horrible. And no, using a different launcher does NOT remedy that. Anyone who says different is just silly.

Fingerprint sensor is much less convenient for me to use.

Gestures are poor. Double tap to wake is so delayed. 3 finger pinch for screenshot is dumb. The phone won't take landscape screenshots either.

Capacitive buttons are so poorly implemented. Too small and too close together. After a week and a half of use I still couldn't reliably use them.

Community support is looking shaky still because the BL unlock comes with hoops to jump through and a voided warranty.

I gave up too much just to get great speakers. Phone is back in the box to be returned. I really wanted it to be good. Maybe next year.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] robstunner:
Here's a link of some photos I took, comparing the axon 7 to the OnePlus. Other than color accuracy differences, camera isn't a big difference.
