does anybody know when B27 will be available for europe? Now i have B03 and the loudness is crap.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] imp3r10:
It won't get louder. It's EU law.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] martinmagnus:
ok thanks.. so it makes no sense to wait for the update.

.....i am so frustrated with the a 7. i will send it back
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] rikin93:
You can change it with root.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] martinmagnus:
i know but i don´t want to root it ;) i am a greenhorn in this area
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] rikin93:
Okay send back then, you will get same problem on phone companies who abide the EU law :)
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] ourplaceinthestars:
Sorry for probably dumb question, but is there, or will be, a way to root this phone and not void warranty irreversibly? Btw. thanks for your help and enormous input within the community.

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] nathasnajperowa:
Zte could definitely make Axon 7 EU louder, much louder. I have also HTC 10 official European sale and it's even louder than American Axon 7.

Sent from my ZTE A2017U
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] paatha13:
Well if European HTC 10 is louder then ZTE has no excuse at all not providing minimum as US version.

Unless HTC is cheating and not apply EU rules on the his device.

Maybe they know that no one is actually interesting about HTC 10(struggling sales-very low interest from people so HTC do what ever want to do) without negative impact to them.

Btw I would prefer Axon 7 support aptX HD audio codec over loudness of 3.5 port,because I'm listening music through Bluetooth stereo hand free.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] rikin93:
HTC is definitely cheating because i remember my Nexus 5 had low volume due to it following EU law and some of my other devices.

Still trying to figure it this volume increase, ive got the USA mixerpath file, it can be as simple as just a replace but still playing around with it.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] martinmagnus:
my honor 7 is a china import (without f.... eu-limit) and so much louder and has better sound over the headphone jack. will return my a7 next week
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] paatha13:
Well if manage to get it without root would be welcome.

I'm not dealing with root with dozens of device latest year and I'm not doing exception with Axon 7.

As I said I listening music through Bluetooth and not wired hands free so not real issue to me.

Other things most bothers me but will be resolved with the next software update to European device.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] sipe1:
Here enjoy.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] rikin93:
Okay guys, updated the main post with the exact fix! Enjoy superior sound quality!
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] ludovicien:
"It won't get louder. It's EU law."

It is not EU law. It is ZTE being unable to understand EU law. The EU mandate in question requires companies making devices with headphone jacks to set a default maximum volume at the level where hearing damage is thought to be a risk. The end user can then choose to put it higher but must be aware he/she is taking a risk and there is NO upper limit to the volume a devices can output. Come on, you've all seen those warnings.

ZTE didn't read the law. HTC did and made their phones loud and their European executives are not rotting in a jail in Luxembourg for loudness crimes.

Another EU myth busted... if only. This old chestnut has been around for so long even the manufacturers believe it.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] howdid:
i dont know if im doing something wrong or not but even when i change the value to 40 i dont hear louder music.... i disabled system write protection so the values are sticking after reboot ...
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] rikin93:
Think there is a max limit don't go above 20. Ensure the values are sticking and that you changed all 3 values. It 100% works.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] koolershaker:
Worked very good, before this mod it was good hearable at 100%

now i cant stay long at max because its too loud for me.

and the music quality stays very clear all the time.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] howdid:
thanks worked now!
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] paatha13:
Yes we do have warning if you try to maximize the volume even with Bluetooth hands free.

But I have to agree that probably ZTE was unable to understand the EU law and put maximum 14 level while US has 19.

Well someone from ZTE experience with law rules should be involved and not people with no idea then.

Can someone with Bluetooth stereo hands free test if putting the volume at maximum 19 level the loudness is better that before the root fix??
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] rikin93:
I will give it a test but i have read that bluetooth level doesnt change it is set, and i am unsure if this is actually affected by mixer_paths.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] keessonnema:
It is not. Only the volume coming directly from the phone to the headphones is changed.

I can clear this up when I'm home. So I'll edit my post if I don't forget.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] rikin93:
Either way i have messaged ZTE about this fix, so hopefully they can or are willing to put it into their next build so i will convince them for those nonroot users :) There is public holiday in China this week so wont be able to do anything till next week.

Great thread. I heard several people saying the headphone output quality on the US model is superior to the eu model ? Both loudness but quality. Does anyone know of this is the case and if so why. Thanks.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] rikin93:
No quality is epic once the loudness is turned up, there is no difference in quality only the loudness, take my word for this.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] ipmanwck:
That's good to hear. Was worrying me as I hear lots of chat from us owners saying after comparing e.g. model sounds bad.

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] keessonnema:

The desperately have to do that.

When giving as key selling point the top quality of the 3.5 audio jack performance they should offer to everyone customers bought the device all the potential of that element even without root.

Don't forget that this days majority of users don't deal with rooting but want out of the box the device to perform as much better can be.

[General Questions and Answers] mercmobily:
I just bought 2 LG Nexus 5 phones on ebay. They were _silly_ cheap (AU$165, around US$120). I didn't really even expect them to work!

In Australia we normally would use the D821 version; however, I read you can [unlock Band 3 for the 820](http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/general/radio-enable-lte-band-3-nexus-5-d820-t2928561) . So I thought... why not?

The _weird_ thing is on the packaging of the phones. Check them out! One says "D820 GSM 900/1800/1900", the other one says "D820 GSM 850/900/1800/1900" (!). The one with the missing "850" had a much much older version of Android (4.0.1 I think) before upgrading (jumping to version 5, then version 6).

There are other slight differences. In the "newer" model (the one that came with Android 5, and has 820), in the camera app you can swap camera and video by swiping, whereas the other phone won't allow that, and will allow you to switch by swiping to get the menu and then selecting camera.

Even though they are both updated to the latest models, the info screen has slightly different kernels.

I *suspect* the older version is just one of the very early models.

Questions:

* Can I update both to unlock band 3?

* Can you work out why they are different?

Photos to show the info!

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] meddleuk:
Hopefully someone who has both the Hermes and Kaiser can tell me which is the better pda to use emulators with. I currently have the Touch which I am more than happy with except for the slower cpu and lack of hardware keys. I mainly use the emulators for the Snes, GBA and Atari ST.

As I spend 75% of the time trying to play emulator games on the Touch the speed of emulation and lack of hardware keys is a real problem sometimes. I had my heart set on getting a Kaiser but have recently come across threads in the Kaiser forum regarding problems with the Video/CPU drivers for the Kaiser. I assume this would affect the speed of emulation.

So I was not sure whether to look at getting a Hermes instead as it is a lot cheaper and possibly more compatible with Emulators. Do you think it would be much faster than the ELF and worth getting?

What would you advise me to do?

Thanks, meddle
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bishopau:
I'd say for your purposes, get an Hermes.

The question is, what is more important to you, a communication device or an emulator :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] meddleuk:
Emulation is probably No 1 for me. Other than that MP3, Video Playback and a communicator in last place. I have a GPS for the car already so the advantages of the Kaiser don't really come into question unless someone thinks it out performs the Hermes for emulator/games.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] poisonz:
I only play Emulation when I have nothing to do with my phone.

Im using eGens, eMorphGear, and eSNES as Emulation. The speed on my AT&T Tilt is great on loading time and play. I would say you may want to look at 400MHz and above speed for your needs.

For gaming I like T-Mobile MDA better because of hardware keys. Its much easier to fire or to jump. They put all the keys together on Tilt, so makes very hard to do move and shoot at same time. I end up using keyboard on the screen to shoot and to jump.

IMO, MDA is better for gaming but the speed is at 200MHz unless you OC to 260MHz (stable).

After all, what you are looking at is hardware buttons & CPU speed for your games.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Menneisyys:
get a Dell Axim x51v -it's the best device for emulation
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] johnk1973:
The only problem with the Hermes and games is that it has no diagonal movements on the joypad.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Menneisyys:
Still speaking of the x51v (sorry for my being pretty terse in my last post - I've sent it from my Universal and didn't want to thumbtype much), you may want to check out http://wiki.xda-developers.com/inde...s - for both games and productivity platforms to see how the x51v runs emulators.

If I were you, I'd stay away from all 2.8" HTC models because of the touch screen bug - you'll find it VERY irritating with emulators with on-screen controls / buttons (particularly if you press and hold them).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DaveLeh:
Excuse me, could you explain what this bug on htc phones is about? Never heard about a bug with on screen buttons. I tried to search but couldn't find anything. Thank you.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Menneisyys:
see for example the "Touchscreen CPU usage issues" section at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=First reports on the, now, GPS-enabled HTC Trinity

(the same is true of the Kaiser)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DaveLeh:
Thank you very much. That is indeed a grave matter and it is much more grave that HTC seems to do nothing against "bugs?", when you look at how old this problem is. Unbelievable that it is still there on the brand new Kaiser.

It seems that HTC is not very friendly towards customer reports (another example would be the missing 3d support on the new Qualcomm devices).

But maybe you can avoid this problem by using hardware buttons where possible.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] meddleuk:
One thing I didn't realize is that the Hermes has only a 5 way directional D-pad so there is no way to do diagonal moves.

Funny thing is my Touch can do diagonal moves play Bubble Bobble for instance but I can only map "left, right, up, down" so I assume it can tell that both Up and Left are being pressed at the same time.

Does the Kaiser have the same issue with the D-pad.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mikeeey:
I would keep the Kaier if I were you. Your gonna be sorry when you have a hermes when the kaiser finally get's 3D drivers and an Overclock Utility. Also the hermes only has a 5-directional pad, while the kaiser can support all 9 directions =).

get the kaiser, there are many many games out there it will still play, including real ppc games, and ports for games, see my youtube video here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBQco1NoE7Y
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Menneisyys:
You can, but on-screen tap areas (particularly with autofire - then, they require constant tap=and-holding) are REALLY great with MANY emulators.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Menneisyys:
... in what timeframe? ;)

IMHO, having a cheap, non-gaming/emulation-oriented converged unit (not necessarily th Hermes) & getting a cheapo x51v is a better idea for the time being if he does need emulation.
