[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] rivak:
I bought a Oneplus 2 phone at the end of last year. Right now I'm getting an Mi5 and will sell my Oneplus phone and probably never buy from them again. The stock software Oxygen is just awful and missing a lot of features that come with other vendor software UIs. The battery life was even worse on OP2 and won't be any better in OP3.

Regarding customs roms they have been many wifi issues, dunno if this is still the case. My OP2 still underperforms in that area compared to my old iPhone 5.

Then, after 4 months of use my fingerprint sensor failed. This is a common OP2 problem without solution. There is a chance to repair it via strange battery offload which worked for me once but never again. I wasn't planning to use the OP2 for 3 years like my iPhone 5 but at least one year without any serious issues would have been nice. I really hope that Mi5 will perform better. At least software wise is looks like Xiaomi is able to put much more effort into their MIUI.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] bArDBQ:
That's precisely what I did and god that I'm happy with it. My OnePlus 3 is the best phone I ever had.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] volastyle:
100% agree, OPT has been an awful phone, and OOS has been unstable and annoying, doing the same as you.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] kamrul.auntu:
I did the same jump. Very happy with using OP3 than MI5.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] forzanetti:
care to elaborate?

I use two phones. For now it's LG G4 and Mi5. I was thinking of getting OP3 to replace my G4, but OP3's camera doesn't seem to be on par with the G4, and that's a concern for me. I'm quite satisfied with mi5 as my second phone. Again, my only quirk is the camera, but for now my G4 handles all the shooting.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheUltrametricSpace:
The overall performance of the Mi5 camera is not stunning. How do you think about it when having a LG G4 right next to a Mi5 in daily use.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] kamrul.auntu:
Then you may think about replacing MI5 with a OP3. I think OP3 will become your primary phone of you! OP3 camera isn't bad either.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] terragady:
G4's camera is better for sure, no argue here. My only concern are problems with network and WiFi reception on OP3, I travel a alot and also to remote places where I need network and internet, I am fine with LG G2 and HTC m9 but I am reading that OP3 has huge problems with it. Can anyone comment network and wifi reception on mi5? Is it good?
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] rivak:
I received my Mi5 a few days ago and I must state that it's one of the best users experiences I had since I ditched iOS. Everything works totally as intended wifi/network is fine. Can't really see how anyone would consider buying Oneplus 3 rather than Mi5. Try googling: "Oneplus 3 issues" and "Mi5 issues" afterwards. I was surprised about those threads regarding my OP2 in the past. Now I know that Oneplus has powerful hardware elements poorly connected to each other with just really ****ty software on top.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] A331709:
From my own experience, I have been flip-flopping between Mi and OP over the last year or two. In Feb 2015 I bought the Mi4 and was really happy with it. Never once did the phone cause problems or irritate me. However, it's fatal flaw was no 4G and Dual Sim support (dual SIM was needed as I was overseas at this time). So with that in mind I made the jump to OP2 in October 2015. The FP scanner, Dual SIM support, international 4G support was a dream come true. Sadly, my problems with OP became evident in March when the FP scanner just died. I mean this was literally like disabling the physics in a ragdoll and watching it fall into itself. The service centre changed this for no charge as the device was still in warranty but 2 weeks later SIM 2 stopped working and no matter what I did, nothing fixed it. Went to the service centre again and the guys said I'd have to leave the phone for a week.

As far as Im concerned, that was it for me with OP and their products. They rarely respond to feedback on Twitter and Facebook, seem more interested in pushing out root tutorials than solid, stable updates and have consistently delayed updates and features.

In addition to the poor after-sales experience, I also don't like the camera bump on the OP3. This is one of the most annoying things for me and the Mi5 does not suffer from this problem.

Technical aspects are more or less identical on these phones, but the Mi5 screen looks gorgeous, and photos generally look better than the OP3.

Anyway - that's just my view. Having given both companies a fair stab at my money, i'll stick with Xiaomi for now. They definitely have a more engaged and involved user community than OP and their devices are very well optimised.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] silverblack:
Recent price drop on Xiaomi Mi5 but doesn't seem to have changed at retailers.

Might get one once they do.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] otonieru:
I own both. And well, i can say that OP3 is superior in almost every aspect,

Fingerprint implementation is much better. Not to mention the virtual home (capacitive model). It can unlock the screen from screen off condition.

Build is more premium. Mi5 back case is feel cheap honestly.

Performance wise, 6GB give you more room to multitask things,

But after all, am still keeping my Mi5 as second phone since it support more LTE band than my A3000 OP3. And i like the IR blaster..

Development is not as good as OP3 since no source is available yet. But the CM13 build is avail and pretty stable. So am pretty happy with my Mi5 as well,

Although, if i indeed have limited budget and can only manage to have or buy one of it, i'll simply pick OP3 in a heartbeat.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] nurunet:
Really? I thought OP3 had better band support, including European Band 20 (800 MHz)? But maybe it lacks others that are important in other parts of the world.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] otonieru:
If we are talking about A3003, then yes. But mine is A3000

So it lack band 5 and 8, which is quite essential in my country.

My telco provide using band 5&40 and my second provider using band 3&8,

So Mi5 is quite a perfect companion, since it has all those bands
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Gerard Lardizabal:
Chilll Guys xD

You all have the mi5 still, haha

But back on the topic, ive had mi3 and mi4 before and they are really good devices, xiaomi may have took time to release sources but their phones are of good buildy quality, MIUi is optimized every way based on user comments and suggestions, people may want one plus 3 its fine, it has its cons and pros, so does the mi5, its just how you use your phone

I'm having a lot of trouble removing/ejecting the MicroSD card. Looks like it's stuck inside. I have tried pressing on the card to eject it (as it says in the manual) but it's not budging.

I have tried tweezers, but these are not working either, just scratching the case. Also, the protective cover is very flimsy (I wouldn't be surprised if this also snaps off soon as it looks pretty weak).

Any tips for removing? Have you had this problem? Thanks in advance...

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pphilly:
I rooted my LG G3 not too long ago and changed the model number in build.prop to the Galaxy S6 (SM-G920F) so that Snapchat would behave as it does on Galaxy. This went fine, but then when I started messing around with roms for xposed and trying to flash, I bricked it. Now when it boots it immediately shows and gets stuck on the [####] Fastboot Mode Started screen. I can get it into download mode and on the Firmware Update screen via my PC and I was going to flash the stock firmware onto my LG using LGFlashTool, except I just realized the model number is still stuck at SM-G920F! It still thinks its a galaxy so I can't flash any LG firmware onto it! PLUS because it's bricked I can't get into my phone to change the build.prop model back to D850. Can I change the build.prop from my PC? Could I try flashing the SM-G920F stock firmware onto it since that's what it thinks it is?

Thanks

Hi,

I am running on low storage. I play a lot games so I wish to use android 6.0 feature(adoptable storage). I wish to enquire few things regarding that

1) Doesn't it harm my device(I have rooted LG G4 Indian variant thrice and got it repairing by LG after successfully rooting it and using it for couple of month....this device has serious issues with rooting) coz I am out of my warranty now :(

2) Do I need root?

3) Is it pure developer testing thing(using adb & Debugging mode enabled?)

4) Will it harm my external SD card

5) Are there any guides for adoptable storage on LG G4 H818N? (If not....I know there are a lot of guides for S7. Is the process same)?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goddies:
Dear Group

I am not sure if I am in the right place but I am looking for some help with the above watch.

The supplier Gearbest is not helpful at all.

This has forced me to seek help else where. I tried scouting around to find out who makes this watch then obtain perhaps an email . The supplier Gearbest will not release details of who makes this watch or a support email address. This has forced me to do my own searching.

I found a company who makes Rwatch but the the fellow I emailed deny this is their watch.

My problem is thus I bought the above watch. From Gearbest. It arrived here and fully functional except no communication via GSM ie cell phone data . I paid Gearbest a fee and they sent me a replacement watch and exactly the same problem it arrived fully functional but. No communication via GSM ie cell phone data.

We import a variety of gps tracking devices the majority have to be set up especially setting the apn depending on the cell service provider, I was wondering if the apn on this watch is not set correctly, hence the lack of data, it seems to me impossible that two watches of the same brand etc don't work on arrival here in South Africa.

I tried an alternative cell phone service providers sim cards in the hope that one would by chance work but alas I could get no joy.

I tried to plug the watch in to my pc via usb cable thinking I could perhaps telnet but could not make any progress on my own.

I was wondering if any one here knows who actually makes these watches, perhaps a support email address would really be helpful.

Alternately Is there any way of finding out if the watch is set up to the correct apn for example. How would that be checked via a sms command or a telnet session. Is there software that I can install that can probe the smart watch for its settings via the usb cable.

To me it seems silly to send the watches back at a cost to me and only to have them send another watch and we persist with the same impasse.

I was hoping with a bit of help or pointer and a few keystrokes we can have the watches fully working in no time.

If this is the wrong place to seek this type of help could you please direct me where to go to get the help I am asking for.

Thank you for your time and trouble reading this and any help you may be able to provide me with.

Regards

Goddies
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miguel4:
Hi, same issue here. Just bought the watch from Gearbest and there is a complete lack of support for it. I wrote a ticket to Gearbest demanding support and manuals, but I don't think they are going to provide anything...

Anyway, I gave been messing around and my trouble was that no data communication was in place. Only voice calls were working. I have found the codes to enter engineering mode; just dial *#3646633#. In the menu I have been able to go to GPRS act and activate GPRS. A big G letter is shown in the screen, but nevertheless, no communication is made, and the watch is still useless....

I have been messing around with the menus; been able to activate a serial port via USB and access via Putty to the watch and perform basic AT commands, but again, with no luck.

Other codes that work are *#66*# Factory mode and *#87# autotest.

If anyone can dig any deeper and find out how to make this watch work, they will be very welcome!!

Thanks

I had this same issue 2 days ago. Phone died and wouldn't cut on. Charged it and everything. Did some googling and found a solution. Use the USB cable that came with the phone and plug it into the phone and boot your computer or laptop to the BIOS and let it charge. In about 5-10 mins you should see the battery icon pop up. Once you do turn the phone on and let it charge through the PC, or a car charger. I used a car charger cause it was faster. Idk if this is an issue with the charger or the phone but this worked for me. Hopefully this helps.
