[Nexus 6P General] Nekromantik:
Lets hope the clever devs out there find out how to port Google Assistant!
[Nexus 6P General] KennyDumah:
does it have new sounds? if yes could you upload the folder? I am on mobile and can't download right now 1.3 GB :D
[Nexus 6P General] BoboBrazil:
This is my hope. We could basically have the pixel experience on the 6p with launcher and assistant.
[Nexus 6P General] Ghstudent:
I'm already looking through it to see what I can find.
[Nexus 6P General] Nekromantik:
They also leaked apks from the system image.

http://kickedface.blogspot.co.uk/2016/10/download-leaked-apks-from-google-pixel.html

Anyone tried the camera apk?
[Nexus 6P General] wizardwiz:
APKs are interesting. did anyone had the chance to test any of these APK?
[Nexus 6P General] marmeak7:
I tried installing the camera apk but I am unable to install it. Maybe it needs to be installed as a system application to work.
[Nexus 6P General] NoobInToto:
From what I've read, most of the apps have minSDK level of 25, and Android 7.0 is sdk 24. People have tried to change sdk level in build.prop and have succeeded installing few apks,but most of them don't work.

I've tested these and they work for me: dialer,pixel launcher,wallpaper picker.
[Nexus 6P General] wizardwiz:
So you've managed to installed a few apks by changing the sdk level at the build.prop ? and the most important question, i think, was it worth it ? any major changes made to these new APKs ?
[Nexus 6P General] KennyDumah:
If you install this apk you'll get the basic live Wallpapers of the Pixel. Also the one with the gradient look. :)
[Nexus 6P General] zeletrik:
Dope :D

Works perfectly on my 6P without root :highfive:
[Nexus 6P General] chris.k00:
[MENTION=3077740]KennyDumah[/MENTION]. Are These Navigation Buttons only the normal Buttons in White or do you have the new nice Animation?
[Nexus 6P General] KennyDumah:
These are without animation. You get the animation only with assistant activated.
[Nexus 6P General] MeltdownSpectre:
I've installed Keyboard, Clock, Calculator and Phone. All work fine.

Contacts, Camera and many others don't work probably because of the API difference.

[Nexus 6P General] chris.k00:
Is it possibe to Port sutch Apps to a lower API?
[Nexus 6P General] ursupplyer:
Do they look a lot different? Any new features in the new ones?
[Nexus 6P General] chris.k00:
Keyboard, Calculator and Clock don't have a visable Change. The Phone Dialer has now a Little bit Darker Blue Finish.
[Nexus 6P General] knitler:
anyone pull the bootanimation?
[Nexus 6P General] MeltdownSpectre:
Dialer has a different coloured blue UI and it looks a bit different when you place a call.

Clock and Calculator are the same and keyboard has 2 new themes.

Do you think it's possible to port the camera or do we need the correct api's for it to work?

Can't it install it for some reason. I get a toast notification saying "Can't Open File."
[Nexus 6P General] OGWAUN:
Assistant also works now you just have to edit your build prop to that of the pixel.

[Nexus 6P General] MatiasLopezxD:
someone tried to port the rom? I tried but wont boot, I dont know how port the kernel, any help?
[Nexus 6P General] steviemch:
This doesn't work for me. Correct folder and permissions set, before anyone asks, just get the Google logo with no animation.

[Nexus 6P General] skw5115:
It's a flashable zip
[Nexus 6P General] DarK_DemoN:
Just edit/add the 2 lines shown in the OP of the thread, in your own build.prop. No need to download the one given. Just edit your stock one and everything will work fine.
[Nexus 6P General] steviemch:
Ah, that explains it. Usually best to specify that where bootanimations are concerned, as the default file is a zip file. I'm so used to manually adding them it didn't even enter my head.

Does this seem distorted to anyone else?
[Nexus 6P General] istperson:
Yeah me too. I just didn't take the time to check image sizes and compare it to the desc.txt.
[Nexus 6P General] 12MaNy:
Doesn't work. Can't even install the camera, icons and other apks
[Nexus 6P General] DarK_DemoN:
Works perfectly for me and others. Make sure you're editing the correct line and adding the new line exactly as it appears. Camera won't work due to different APIs being used but there is a 7.0 port floating around that works perfectly (using it as well).
[Samsung Gear S2] jfriend33:
I recently purchased a gear s2 classic from swappa.com The device has activation lock on it. Since it is the verizon version, it is my understanding the other methods of removing this lock don't work with this model. (Like the guy on youtube that charges $40)

I contacted samsung and they said if we are unable to obtain the samsung account info and remove the device, you have to email them a receipt, and then mail in the watch to have the lock removed.

Does anyone know of any other options for the r735V verizon gear s2 classic?

Thanks!
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] gadgetgaz:
I wonder what will happen further down the line when I don't own a pixel anymore and my Google storage allowance is full because I filled it up with full resolution photos when I did have a Pixel.

How will Google deal with that? Will they look at the image's metadata to establish whether a particular photo was taken on a Pixel or some other phone?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] hockeyman12c:
I don't have a source but I read somewhere that it is only for photos and video you took with you pixel. I would assume that means those photos and video don't count toward your storage usage.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] TCPDump:
I would imagine they use the meta-data from the pixel. Sounds like someone should write a tool to re-encode all your images to have the pixel meta information. :D
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ayaman:
So as the tittle, can the 3+ years old stock note 2 (without any custom roms or anything) perform daily tast without any problems or significant performance issues. Not including gaming or other heavy workloads, just calls, messages, social networking , and lots of web browsing , hours of web browsing. Can the battery last a decent amount and does thouse custom roms and stuff improve thing. Share your thoughts or better your experience.:)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
I have always found that a stock ROM is the most stable. If you want to de-bloat, you could root the phone and remove unnecessary apps.

http://www.ebay.com/sch/zteusainc/m...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2562

They still sell it on the regular website and Best Buy and New Egg are still selling them on ebay. But this is very interesting that they have stopped selling it on ebay.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] TeutonJon78:
If they don't have any stock, how would they be running anything on eBay? I don't think ebay lets you run pre-orders and such. I'd bet it will come back up when stock arrive shortly.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] celoxocis:
It's no about stock actually.

They don't want non-US users to get the chance to buy the US model outside of the US. Which you were able to using eBay.

I was told by BHPhoto that they are restricted by ZTE to sell the device to non-US customers.

The US version is the better one compared to the international model.

Lucky me I have a buddy in NY area who got the newegg pre-order of the grey version and will forward it to me. I'm in Europe and have tested the A2017G. Sent it back as I'm waiting for the A2017U (US Model).
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Aimara:
how is that the U model is better then G?
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] DrakenFX:
Easy for Unlock bootloader and easy to fix soft-brick , probably more buy those 2 comes first!! :D
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Aimara:
oh ok , now that they halt the sale outside us ,seem like its just for you guys , well it should promote more and increase the community , frankly speaking just this year i heard of this brand , hmmm where has it been all these years
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] obladi64:
Could you please detail why G version would be worse than U. It is same hardware and only modem is different but modem behaves better in G as read comments anywhere? What do you expect from U? If you have software issues I am sure that if any is fixed in one of two it will be sorted out on other one too.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] celoxocis:
Actually only a few points that tipped it over for me in favor for the U version.

A: Better Software support from ZTE USA.

B: The U version has VoLTE which is supported in ROM/Baseband. The G version does not and never will. (Not supported in the modem firmware).

C: U version allows you to enter EDL mode (Qualcomms Emergency Download Mode). I need this as I'm a dev. The G version can only enter DFU mode.

D: All the band's that are required in my Euro country and in the US are supported. I travel to friends in the US and don't want to have to switch phones.

E: With the newegg pre-order you were given free headphones for around 200$. After customs it will be the same price as the G version in euros but with additional free high quality headphones.

F: My buddy tested the phone for "bad signal reception" and other faults/defects I mentioned to look out for. For over a week before sending the device over. Else I would have told him to send it back.

He is using an OP3 and even compared them as a daily driver. He said it's on par with the OP3. He even said the Axon7 is like "stuck on 4G" while his OP3 loses 4G occasionally and gets 3G only.

He is an experienced IT tech. I trust his judgement.

He is even thinking about selling his OP3 and to grab an Axon7 as soon as CM is done.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] xtermmin:
The G model has a lower volume cap, possibly due to EU regulations, while the U model has a much higher cap. The G model also seems to have more issues with bootloader unlocking, while the U model is pretty straight forward.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] obladi64:
Thanks for the details. You see it from developer point of view mainly as I see.

A) I don't know. May be but as I see much less G related problem was reported than U.

B) May be but Volte is not as wide spreaded in EU as in US. as far as I know. Otherwise It looks that workaroud (if not the final solution) for signal issue of US model is turning Volte off, so you can get in same boat easily.

C) I don't know how important it is for avaradge users. Orherwise it is also software fearure if I understand it well.

D) You are lucky. Not eveeybody can say that US bands cover of his/her country exactly.

E) Just because of this fact US version is not better. It is only cheaper.

F) It is strange because mostly US users complain for signal reception. I haven't had any issue with. G. It works perfectly and expectedly in big city as well as low signal country area. As I mentioned earlier it looks that workaroud (if not the final solution) for signal issue of US model is turning Volte off.

Also I read that overwriting field APN manually can solve few cell issues. I did it due to orher reason and I don't have any issue.

So after all you didn't mentioned anything why U would be better for users except Volte. It is just your taste and chance to get it cheaper.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] celoxocis:
That's why I said it's only a few points for _me_ and not for _all_ users.

And as I have a chance to get all those pros for the same price in the end it is a no brainer.

Also I do not believe that the antenna is so much different to the G model. It is more likely that a few batches had a bad antenna build-in and when ZTE realized that, due to complains, new batches after the affected one's were sent off, were all build with a better antenna in place.

The Chinese and US Models were on the first batches. The international ones were produced later. Look into Chinese forums complaining about reception problems.

Unfortunate it is how the greedy corporate industry world works today. Sell those affected phones until enough users complain. If they complain, offer an exchange. If they don't they made profit.

Just look at the Samsung Note 7 disaster. Same **** is happening there.

Not to mention Samsungs Panel Lottery for their TV which has been going on for a decade.

I worked for Huawei Europe HQ and could write a book about how corporations do their quality check behind the doors. Just saying I'm never gone touch a Huawei phone because of what I know.

(Don't ask I signed an nondisclosure agreement.)

In the end it's on you to decide if you want to keep the phone or not. Or if you want to pay 399$ with more pros or 449euro for more cons.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] shirakani:
Isn't the chinese A2017 model better than the rest? I mean... like, you know... 6gb RAM vs 4gb... 128gb internal vs 64... and you can use all the U unlocks/tools w/ no issue? :P
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] paatha13:
Seems that many of you forget that having US version in Europe you are out of warranty.

To many customers warranty is very important to them.

Also EU has 3 years warranty policy while US 2 years.

I'm having a month now both gold and gray G version and no reception /WiFi issue at all.

Compared to my S7 Edge the call reception is the same level and WiFi is better.

Also G version will have in coming weeks official root and boot loader unlocked from ZTE without loosing the warranty.

Even that US version is getting first the official software updates it's just matter of time(less than 1 month) until G version also received the software update for the specific region(Europe)
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Aimara:
Just curious does the u model comes from the ZTE USA down in texas? I presumed warranty is by them as well?
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] obladi64:
You could be right. That's how the world works. You also are not enemy of your money as well as no one else.

Regarding the price I would say that EU price contains the average 21% EU VAT. So it means that price of EU version would be between $410 or 415 in US. So it is not a big deal. Also I think that EU citizens should pay duty if they import from US but it is already off topic.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] xtermmin:
No, bad band support.

Can anyone give me some info regarding the 6GB 128GB version? Have they released this in US? Is a 6GB Ram model for US even available? I am using Straight Talk on AT&T towers. Would love to know what the deal is. I've been patiently waiting for this version to surface but haven't seen it yet
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] daedren:
Only the chinese model has a version with 6 + 128 GB. There are some people who bought the chinese model and report it functions well both in the US and Europe, but take a look at the supported bands before buying, as they differ between the models.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Better audio on headphones.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] obladi64:
Better that you mean louder. The quality is exactly same.

Hopefully it will be fix in the next update by increasing a bit. If not I don't mind because it is quite enough for my headphones in most cases.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] ChazzMatt:
Yes, better (louder) so you can actually hear the audio. I don't own the phone, but those who've compared the two variants say the U.S. is better in that regard.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] obladi64:
Anybody can say anything. Same hardware and same software. If any difference is between sound of two phones is surly not because of U and G version.

Edit: Like I said volume is almost always enough. I am not deaf yet fortunately. And it depends on the headphones too, but sound quality is same.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] reluttr:
Auuuuugh. I decide I wanna get the Axon and amazon sells out again. :(

If I buy one from third party seller on amazon I assume it automatically invalidates the passport warranty right?

Yes ... Try Newegg

[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sub-Negro:
It is suppose to be coming out in the 4th quarter of this year but given how ZTE seems to be struggling to keep up with the demand of the current version who even knows. I was waiting for it but since my daily driver was an S6 Edge with awful battery life and a broken screen I had to buy the current Axon 7.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] celoxocis:
One difference is, the A2017U has an VoLTE modem with VoLTE software/framework support.

The A2017G has no VoLTE modem and it probably won't be available through an modem firmware upgrade either. (the modem chip is different).
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] obladi64:
Please do not start the circle again. Both issues were discussed earlier in this thread pro and contra. Otherwise you are really lucky that US model covers frequency bands of your country. As I see only one 3G and one 4G is used there by all three providers. If you go to anywhere in EU you would have problem with US model more or less. And it will effect not only 4G but 3G too. Period.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] xtermmin:
Has anyone tested the A2017U to see if it gets VoLTE on any carrier besides T-Mobile USA? While there is a VoLTE Calling switch, the A2017U might only be configured for T-Mobile USA VoLTE.

---------- Post added at 10:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:58 AM ----------

Shouldn't affect 3G, as the Global and US units have the same UMTS bands (1/2/4/5/8).
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] obladi64:
Not all sources mention B8 but it could be supported. Anyway it is not the point at all. Any others has been discussed previously.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] celoxocis:
That's the. When I leave my EU country it's usually for the US. In my case the A2017U is better. Period!
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] obladi64:
That is great. It is better in your case. I am happy that you changed your judgment which initially was a general statement
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] celoxocis:
You must still be in school because you apparently can't read correctly... When you read my initial post I stated what tipped it over for _me_ and not _all_ users.

My guess you are trying to justify your purchase of the A2017G over the A2017U because you realize CM is not coming to this device due to the fact that the required sources for proper audio bring-up are ZTE proprietary code and you are left with the bad A2017G firmware support.

Which by now have only released B05 while the US has B27 and it is well known that most issues in the B05 are no longer existent in the B27.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] obladi64:
I don't get you. These are your initial words.

I don't find words such as "for me" or "not for all user". It is a statement that U is better and you are lucky that your friend can buy it for you.

Also it is very strange that you judged me with justifying my purchase while I am trying to explain that any of two is not better than the other. Hardware is same except modem of course Both have advantage and disadvantage.

There is only one person who tries to justify his decision and it is you.

But reason why I would do this is more interesting

Believe me! It not a case for 99% of buyers included me.

It looks that you really want to start ruining of same circle again. I won't run with you.

So you can repeat your personal impression disturbingly as many times as you wish.

[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] HonestOtter:
Having sold on Ebay I kinda understand how the whole process works. Sell 11 items to 10 happy and honest people and 1 dishonest person.

1) They message saying they didn't get it.

2) You track it say it was delivered on XX/XX

3) They say they didn't get it

4) You decide to fight it, buyer always wins, ebay give you a penalty, they refund all the money paid to the buyer, you still pay for the listing and selling cost and shipping.

Last thing I sold on Ebay was a brand new $350 brand new, still in bag Columbia coat with built in heater. Shady company Bay.ru bought it, used it, returned it after the return period. Ebay gave them full refund, I paid for $25 shipping plus $37 listing fee, got a used coat that I didn't need. That was actually pretty good because one guy shipped back an empty box, got the item and a full refund. I of course still paid shipping out and lost an item.

I hear PayPal has gotten better at monitoring this kind of behavior, and now that they are separate I might start selling on Ebay again.
