I am fully stock on 7.0. I used to use the broadcast tile and quick settings or power toggles to add it. I realize it's gone but with the new api with tiles built in has anyone released anything to the play store yet i missed? i would gladly pay for it. I miss that feature as i use the clock app at night with the screen saver option and showing the soft keys is brutal and just asking for burn in. why in the hell doesnt google minimize them on the app. totally dumb
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koreanschoolkid:
Pretty much the title. I enjoyed having the option to use 2 sms apps on my S4 but on Twisted MM and I assume all TW MM builds I can't use sms at all unless I pick 1 and stick to it. How does one get around this?
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] EasyTiger6x13:
Long story short, buy this now! I'll answer questions when I can. Here are some pics of it in the phone in the mean time! Sorry about quality!
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] gumbyx84:
How does it feel in the hand? I prefer hybrid cases but if this doesn't have that rubbery, grimy feel that hold onto pocket lint I think I might bite the bullet and get it. It would be my third case do I want to make sure I'll like it before I buy it.

Also is the gray bar near the bottom a kick-stand?
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] allan1229:
Looks good
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] Scandiacus:
Is the grey bar included?
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] xtermmin:
Nah, that's something that they sell separately. It's a kickstand.
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] jlomein:
Great photos thanks. Compared to the Axon 7's included clear TPU case, do you believe this Spigen offers superior drop cushioning on the corners? Does the front lip offer greater stand off distance as well?

I'm starting to believe I'll have to run my Axon without screen protection, since every tempered glass protector I've seen has the halo issue...a large front lip on the case would be ideal.
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] EasyTiger6x13:
Hey everyone sorry for the late reply! Been very busy.

I'd say it adds about...3 to 5 (5 for margin of error) millimeters to each side, and it does add a little weight. But, honestly the weights nothing really to write home about. If anything it's a sign of quality to me. I also like how much better it feels in hand compared to the stock case, this case is not at all glossy except for the carbon fiber parts and has a matte finish. The power button is textured on this case which is nice because I'm not use to the power button being below the volume buttons so I'm constantly locking my screen when I intend to use the volume. Why they ever decided that for this phone is besides me.

This case fits this phone like a ****ing glove. It's very tight. It's definitely more difficult to take off then the stock case that came with the phone and definitely fits it so much better too. I'd be confident dropping this phone FROM POCKET HEIGHT without anything detrimental happening to the phone. It also has about a...2? Millimeter lip that goes over the top of the phone as well.

I also added the kickstand as someone already mentioned. It did not come with the case.
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] TeutonJon78:
Are the buttons a littler harder to push than the stock case? I feel like I'm always pushing them without even trying.
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] GTFO!:
The Spigen case feels tight and sturdy so it offers better protection over the clear ones that came with the phone. Also, the Spigen adds bit more weight if you like that, but my pinky gets sore/tired after holding it for minutes. Maybe I am not use to it? These are my initial impressions.
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] emtownsend:
Can we get a belt clip/clam case that works with it? I don't pocket my phones. Thanks!
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] Rob Irizarry:
I purchased the new Spigen case as well and it provides substantially better protection than the included clear case. The front lip is taller and the corners are thicker.

For reference I wear XL gloves and I find the phone still feels good in the hand with the case. I still prefer the bare feel and size of the phone but I'm not willing to risk that. And its significantly more comfortable to hold than my old Note 4 and its relatively thin case. It's also not a lint magnet but that comes at the cost of some grippiness. The included case is tackier.

I could do without the faux carbon fiber - not a fan of anything faux - but it looks better in person than I thought it would. If you can get it for $13 vs full price, I think its well worth it - protective without being completely overwhelming.
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] spacemanvt:
One question for me, is it easy to use the fingerprint scanner with this case?

One issue i have with the included case with the axon 7 is that its a pit hard to get my finger inside the cut out to hit the scanner... I have large fingers too
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] garyhoggatt:
I find the Spigen case works well with the fingerprint sensor. I actually think it's easier to find and scan the sensor with the case guiding my finger, as the border of the case around the sensor has a nice slope towards the scanner.
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] eMadman:
I got mine a few weeks ago... great case. Feels way nicer than the stock one. I didn't like the rubber texture at first but its grown on me.

What I've noticed:

The indentation for the fingerprint scanner is a bit deep and I'm using the tip of my finger more than I was before. As a result, it didn't pick up every time. Re-scanning my fingers for it fixed the problem

It's become harder to find the NFC chip on the phone. My bluetooth headphones have an NFC tag to aid pairing. It seems to be harder to find the tag now.

Buttons on the side feel way nicer - it offers more resistance than without a case (too little resistance) or the stock one (still not enough)
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] Casperwinde:
Too bad i can't buy it at my country... Malaysia. Have to buy from ebay and shipping fees is way too expensive.
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] jlomein:
This is one of the outstanding features I've found with TPU: slick enough to effortlessly slide in and out of pocket, but slightly tacky/grippy in the hand especially if warm or humid. It's so grippy that I don't have to wrap my fingers around the sides of the phone: I can balance the back of the Axon 7 on my fingertips one handed, which allows me to reach the entire screen area with my thumb.

Maybe I could put some grip tape on the back of the Spigen case.
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] kakavin:
Honestly guys I received my Axon 7 yesterday with the Spigen case and I hate it. The power button and volume buttons are really sharp therefore it's uncomfortable to hold and because my right index finger is always on it when I hold my phone it hurts. You can see my skin dust on it lol and I'm 17. The charging port is also very sharp. I used the stock case and it's so much more smoother and easier to hold but I do need the spigen case. I might smoothen out the buttons or something.
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] drigg:
I just got my Spigen case a few days ago. I had it for my OnePlus 2 and loved it, but this one is even better.

It barely adds width to the phone and feels great. Not slippery, but no rough edges. The power button has a notched texture so it's easy to tell it apart from the volume buttons. The camera/fingerprint/flash have perfectly sized cutouts.

This thing will definitely protect it from a pocket level drop. It's also easy to remove in case you want to swap a microSD/SIM or clean the phone.

By far the best case that will be made for this phone.
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] borijess:
I just received this case and it so much better than the one that comes with the axon 7. I had the case that has a kickstand on my axon linked below. Let me tell you the spigen is better for drops it's actually thicker than what I thought. Also it has more lip protection than the kickstand case. This is premium feeling case that offer some nice protection.

[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] gumbyx84:
Agree with you 100%. I had the kickstand case and there is a world of difference between it and the Spigen case.
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] TeutonJon78:
I just got my case as well -- I love it. It makes the phone feel thicker, but it somehow matches the weight of the phone well. It feel great in the hand, and the cutouts are perfect for all the microphones.
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] oasisdave:
I got this case as well and it's one of the nicest cases I have owned for any phone! Now if I could just find a good tempered glass screen protector.....
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] Pointro:
I just received this case, and it's great. Definitely the one to get. I also had the kickstand case previously mentioned in this thread. The Spigen case is much nicer.
[ZTE Axon 7 Accessories] BIGWORM:

[Miscellaneous Android Development] dropbear2:
Thanks for your work.

Using little time your kernel but double tap to wake not working.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Jonny:
It doesn't work because it's not in the kernel, and nowhere do I state it is... ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] carlshark:
Currently using your kernel, thanks for your work. On latest 20161024, clean flash and rooted with SuperSU.

Camera gives up after autofocus - on stock app and A Better Camera. Hopefully you'll be able to find the problem. :)

From 63 to 100% using a 5V/2A charger, still remains 100% even after reboot... nice

sio I/O scheduler is nice too.

Wishlist is to implement some other CPU governors :)

Again, thanks for your work!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] CAPR:
Works with S6? Thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Jonny:
Regarding camera I know what the problem is and how to fix it, just it requires building with the MTK build chain - very easy fix but then for compiling just the kernel on its own without the MTK build chain the camera breaks.

Trying to find a way to compile just the kernel and have camera working
[Miscellaneous Android Development] xaben:
Does this kernel fix somehow the battery drain from phone idle process? It's so annoying that without even touching the phone, the battery goes out so fast.

Many thanks for your efforts anyway, it's nice to see thar somebody working on this cheap Chinese phone :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Jonny:
Personally my record for this phone is 13 days battery life, but then I use it soley as a development device, not as a daily driver. With a daily driver you should easily be able to get 1-2 days usage out of it.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] KevMetal:
Anyone tried the kernel ..... Anyones camera working ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] k23m:
Thank you for the kernel. It offers a most remarkable improvement of battery life. However, while I can live with the lack of double-tap wake-up, without the camera this kernel is, unfortunately, completely useless :crying:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] KevMetal:
camera stlll not working

So I am assuming you tried the kernel and the camera ia definitely not working . There might be some 3rd party camera apps working . Have you tried any ? The Kernel author stated he knows how to solve the problem . If all of us asked nicely ........ I downloaded but havent flashed . Was waiting for someone to post some good news about the cam :p
[Miscellaneous Android Development] k23m:
Yes, I tried the kernel with stock cameras of:

"ulefone Metal_Android 6.0_20161024.rar"

"CM13_Metal_BetaTest_1.zip"

Unlock the bootloader, install TWRP and then you can easily test out new kernels. It takes only a few minutes to backup/restore/install.

This kernel indeed has standby battery life of above 10 days and I hope the OP can fix the other issues.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] KevMetal:
Kernel and Cm13

I have twrp + sytemless root +magisk+ exposed/busybox and gravity ........... I havent flashed the cm13 because I need the phone for daily use . I will flash the kernel today to try it out . At the moment I have invested 30+ hours just trying to find a tweak to get rid of my roaming r ...... I have tried all of them plus all the roaming modules in exposed etc etc . If I have time I will try cm13 and the kernel this weekend for fun . Thanks . Great to see there are metal owners out thereflashing stuff .......:good:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] xaben:
Fingers crossed for the camera issue to be fixed as a day of battery life without even using the phone it's just terrible..

Thanks

[Miscellaneous Android Development] KevMetal:
thanks

Downloading now . Good work .
[Miscellaneous Android Development] k23m:
Thank you again - camera works!

Standby battery life is fantastic - in 8 hours it dropped only 1% in the following conditions:

display off

gps, bt, wifi off

mobile data off

mobile 3G on

Tested on stock OS from 20161024 with over-active apps/services removed:

Fota Provider

LocationEM2

MobileAntiTheft

Network Location

Schedule Power

Voice Command

Voice Unlock

Wireless Update

...etc.

I wonder if active double-tap wake-up would affect this superb power efficiency of your kernel.

:good:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] xaben:
Mine in 8 hours more than 20% :rolleyes: It looks like the battery in my model is a crap..

Anyway how did you have before switching off all of these services?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] k23m:
I also had 20%+ battery drain while doing nothing. Disabling or removing the apps will help (-5%) but not as much as replacing the kernel. I recommend OSMonitor and BetterBatteryStats to discover problematic apps.

Here is a reliable way to check your battery's capacity:

get this cheap USB tester

discharge your Ulefone to 0%, reset the tester

while Ulefone is off, recharge it to 100% with the tester interconnected

I get time 5:42 and 2778mAh. Due to conversion loss (5V --> 3.7-4.2V) you need to multiply the result by ~1.1, so eg. I got 3055mAh real battery capacity.

Cheers
[Miscellaneous Android Development] xaben:
The drain still occurs after flashing the kernel so it's possibly the battery.

I've ordered a tester from ali so we'll see. I'll also check what drainig so much by your suggested apps.

Many thanks for your help :svetius:

[Miscellaneous Android Development] mckacza17:
Can I install this when I'm using Eragon? And maybe stupid question, but how can I install that? Same as any ROM using twrp?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] KevMetal:
its a flashable .zip file so you can download it and flash via twrp . i have flashed it this morning on stock Android 6 this morning to get a feel of it and i haven't experienced any specific problems yet . remember to make a backup while in twrp BEFORE flashing the .zip ..... if your phone gets stuck on the bootlogo go back to twrp and click on restore but only highlight( tick -select ) boot.

After install this kernel, I have a lot of white, short, horizontal lines from the left side of screen, on every ROMs... :/ When I install ,for example Eragon without installing this Kernel, everything is ok :/
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Jonny:
You have one of the newer display batches then, not much I can do on this one - try dropping BlueFlame4 a message, see if you can help debug it for him
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mckacza17:
So that's mean Your LineageOS You working on will be not flashable without this issue (white lines)?? This is so sad that some devices are perfect for CM and other, like mine, have this disappointing problems...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Jonny:
That's exactly what it means. If you want it fixed I suggest you contact BlueFlame4 and help debug the issue.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sinrequilorios:
I think there is a problem with focusing on the camera (or with the flash), after focusing or taking a photo with flash (or simply recording a video), the camera stops and you have to restart the phone. That did not happen with the default kernel of team mad rom. I'm testing it on Android 7.1.1, the latest version of team mad.
