I have been trying to root Lenovo-phab-pb1-750m and referred here http://xdaforums.com/general/xda-assist/root-root-help-lenovo-phab-pb1-750m-plus-t3427518. Well so many deivices in the market are stable to root, why rooting would cause so many problems with this device. Is it dependent on the exploit or the method to gain root access so that device should remain stable to root, without any malfunction. Mine I have experienced hardware keys volume down and power button not responding trying after kingroot. Kingroot which modifies the stock recovery, we will not be able to accept OTA Updates after trying this. I got the issue fixed from an ASC as when I tried reflash using qfil I got sahara error and ended in bootloop.

My main concern is to gain root and it should with full support of su binaries with busy box. Many times it is required to unlock bootloader and install custom recoveries for this I didn't mind doing it. But there is no support officially nor in XDA. But I found one thread here http://www.unlock-bootloaders.racing/2016/10/lenovo-phab-8142.html not sure they are referring to this model but they are referring to XDA site but I can't find it in this site. Are they referring to this model lenovo-phab-pb1-750m in the above thread and can I try it on my device model.

However, I noticed that there is one latest method called systemless root here http://www.xda-developers.com/chainfire-releases-root-for-android-6-0-without-modifying-system/, Hence I want to upgrade to Android 6 and unlock its bootloader to try this. please advice how I can go about. In the mentioned link http://www.unlock-bootloaders.racing/2016/10/lenovo-phab-8142.html there is a method given to unlock the bootloader not sure this is for this model and am running lollipop version 5.1.1. Please check and provide me some info.

There's this great app on the playstore (name in title) that lets you change your popups to look like the achievement unlocked notifs and other such cool popups. Pls check it out. So that app is a demo app which shows how it will look and there is a how to implement section but its difficult to follow for someone with no coding or development experience. I would really like to use it, and it's a great concept, I'm surprised there is no thread about it. Everyone should check it out.

Could someone help with a better guide for getting it on my phone pleeeaaaase?

Just instructions a normal person can follow. I follow them carefully. That's how I rooted my phone.

Google Now or Pixel launcher work smoothly but are actually very limited, you can't really customize them at all. If you want to be able to theme or customize then I recommend using Nova or Asus ZenUI.

[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] theGeekyLad:
Hey guys,

This is a replication of the thread I've originally posted in the Nexus 6P Themes & Apps Forum. I've successfully built something similar to Google Pixel's Fingerprint Notification Gesture. Just install the APK, grant it root access and you're good to go.

NOTES:

There's a similar app made by another developer, and this is in no way affiliated to it. End product is the same though it's accomplished in different ways. Read further to know the differences.

REQUIREMENTS:

1. Nexus 5X rooted with SuperSu

2. Android 6.0+ (should work with lower APIs too - haven't tested)

BUGS:

It takes a while to start listening for fingerprints after a complete boot and after you unlock your phone. In the former case, it takes longer for the service to start.

DESCRIPTION:

We all have heard about the Google's new Pixel's fingerprint swipes to accomplish tasks. For the ones who aren't aware, the Pixel lets you swipe down it's fingerprint sensor to simulate a swipe down on your notification bar / status bar to pull it down and a swipe up, to pull it up. This app accomplishes something similar.

A single short tap on the sensor pulls down the notification / status bar and a long press on the sensor pulls it back up, irrespective of whether the finger in subject is registered for authentication or not.

DISCLAIMER:

Make sure you always take a backup before testing. Thumb rule. I'm not responsible if you screw up your handset!

DOWNLOADS:

Fetch it from below.

Cheers and let me know. :)
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] X3NOM:
Great work man, appreciate it!
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] TW1ST3D1NS4N3:
I can install the .apk but the app itself won't open. I've cleared cache and data and I just uninstalled it and reinstalled multiple times. Nothing.
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] dog121:
The app doesn't actually open it runs in the background after u allow root privileges..it's kinda a silent app. Working well though.
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] Carach_CZ:
Ok. Apk installed, app is running. But i have no idea how to grant supersu (root) privileges. App itself didnt asked SuperSu, so SuperSu didnt showed up the prompt window to grant the access. Any sugestions?
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] iamterence:
I'm with this guy. Nothing's happening to prompt the SU request
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] Carach_CZ:
Okay, tried this and it worked. So.. Go to apps, delete data from Pixel Swipe app. Force close app. Scan your finger and setup the fingerprint sensor screen unlock. Reboot the phone and open the app again. Guess it wants the scanned finger before opening.
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] mahdiar70:
tnx man :) no problem with that , good job :)
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] TW1ST3D1NS4N3:
So there's no settings for this app? It takes this much trouble just to get it running as well? I'll stick with the original app.....
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] Carach_CZ:
Worked within five minutes, just had to have finger scanned in the phone. Works great. Thanks mate.
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] Deleted member 5638945:
would be nice if i can swipe to remove notifications panel too, not long press! :D anyways, thank you. very useful app.
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] bzz11g:
Why opening of notification panel so slow? NOVA launcher have the same problem with Android 6, but they solve this problem with root, can you do same thing for your app? With so slow opening - app is useless
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] crian:
Nice app. Not filled with bloated stuff like similar apps. Just what I searched. ?
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] anonxlg:
are you the devloper of the app?

is there any way to make it so that the fingerprint scanner act as a scroll wheel?
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] andrew1982gambles:
Anyway to implement directions and tap to select double tap to go back??
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] CyanoFresh:
Can't even open file.
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] ankit73:
Thanks mahn! :good:

Appreciate it!

But is there any way that the notification panel would go back up when swiped up?
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] theGeekyLad:
That's quite possible but won't it get in your way? I'll explore.
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] theGeekyLad:
That can be handled. Will keep you posted when I release an update!
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] theGeekyLad:
Try making it a system app.
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] theGeekyLad:
Direction aren't supported by the fingerprint firmware that's hard coded. Google says it's possible to over a firmware update but there's no clue whether they're really working on it!

But yeah the tap and double tap can be implemented. :)
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] theGeekyLad:
Will incorporate it soon! Shall keep you posted. :)
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] anonxlg:
well, i actually don't want it to act as a gesture to open and close notification

i'd rather it act as a scroll wheel and having both would conflict

maybe you can implement it so it can do one or the other?

i'd loved to browser/scroll through webpages using the finger print sensor only

thanks
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] theGeekyLad:
Okay, that's a niche though, I'll try it out after over-morrow, got my final exams right now!
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] Midomad:
[MENTION=5283490]theGeekyLad[/MENTION]

Please don't add anything to the app it match the stock moves features of pixel wich is "Swipe for notifications only" and this what we need don't bloat it with more things!

It only need an option to swipe down a second time to launch Quick Settings tiles and swipe up on the scanner to close the notification tray instead of long press (exactly like on pixel phones).

So please guys stop pushing the OP to add more things there is already a lot of similar app if you want more options!
[Nexus 5X Themes and Apps] theGeekyLad:
Hey Midomad,

Though the hardware fingerprint sensor on our Nexus 6P is the same as the on on the Pixel XL, the firmware on the Pixel has been tweaked to allow detection of swipe gestures. Since we've got an inferior firmware on our phones, no third party app / root app can detect a swipe (physically though). So all we could make use of is,

- Single tap

- Double tap

- Long press

I'll work on combining these three phases of recognition to implement the expand quick settings and a collapse as you suggested, after tomorrow. :) Thanks Midomad! Stay tuned.

[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] majus22:
Since I´m fairly interested in buying the X Compact, could anyone or did anyone compare soundquality (with headphones) of those phones?

I´m listening to music with my phone a lot, so this is one of the most important criterias. I would really appreciate some input about the quality with headphones plugged in and also connected with Bluetooth.

I know this is a really subjective matter, but maybe someone can figure out some differences there and try to describe it.

Also plz note that this is about actually testing, listening and using the phones WITHOUT an external AMP.

You can comment comparsions with similar phones ofc, too. thx!

Edit: damit can someone plz edit the title and delete the "Iphone" in fron of Z3C thx..
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] Kianush:
I havent tried this phone yet...but overall sound quality in Xperia phones is always better due to the sound enhancement options available in stock sony music app(walkman)
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] majus22:
Well thats what you might think.., but Sony also produces way better cameras than those they put into their own damn phones.

So just because of some marketing "enhancement" options it does not mean the quality actually is better. I already read product descpretions myself, im really about actually testing. If anyone can find some serious test and not just some well placed product advertising you can also link it. I could not find more than 2 and they didn´t really describe how they tested it.

*Edit: Also already found tests of older Sony Xperia smartphones and those clearly proof that the quality is worse than in the Iphone and many others in the same pricing range.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] majus22:
Also considering that CD quality music (only got arround 2 FLAC albums yet xP) is beeing played. Sony obviously supports Highres-Audio, which the 6s does not.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] Kianush:
look I said I havent used x compact but I actually have used other phones as SP z2 z5C and I can assure you that that enhancement option is not just for marketing

I even port sony sound enhancements and walkman to my other phones like HTC e8 and galaxy s6 to use it when listening to my hard rock albums!
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] povilkami:
Looks ok to me

Hi,

I have actually tested the X compact with the headphones. To me, the experience is pretty much the same as Z5 (which I currently own). The sound quality seems to be very nice. I do not use any sound extensions cause to my ear they distort the sound drastically. I only play FLACs and WAVs through PlayerPro app. There is one concern with the sound though - loudness. With the sensitive in-ear headphones all is ok, but I own several headphones and, for example Sony MDR-10RC are not as sensitive and in some circumstances I would prefer more power. Also some German Maestro headphones which are not as sensitive would benefit from more power. It is a minor concern, though, most of other people would be absolutely satisfied.

Now regarding the iPhone. I do have an iPhone 6 (not s) and 7. Both play comparatively well with the headphones. I wouldn't distinguish any quality advantages of either the iPhone or the X compact. However, the file management with the iPhone is complicated. And it does not support external DAC's as Sony does with an OTG cable.

Regarding the external speakers - iPhone wins hands down. Even the iPhone 6, which is mono, provides a much fuller sound with noticeably better low end (deeper bass (if you can call it bass:)).

I am also not sure how Sony plays the "hi-res" files. The Music app did not play my FLACs so what is that "hi-res" then? I might lack some research in this area.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] realtuxen:
my xc plays flac files fine with the music app so does my z5c and even my old arc/anzu (2011) plays flac files using the same updated music app from sony.

it also plays ogg, acc, raw wav files, and whatever except wma, although I found references to enable experimental support in the media profiling files, I dont remember exactly which but I can find it again if anyone with root would like to try and uncomment it.

in short sony and others will start selling highres 'rips' of the mastertapes which is recorded in much higher quality than cd.

imho sony has always been in front with audio in particular portable versions, heck they invented walkman, minidisc, the cd (along with phillips) and now possibly the next 'standard'. we will see heh. I dunno if iPhone can playback 24bit/192KHz? apple does have .aiff which is capable of hi-res, and supported by sony too.

https://www.sony.co.uk/electronics/hi-res-audio
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] majus22:
Allright thx for the information!

So Sony has problems with the higher electrical impedance of real headphones or just loudness? What do you mean by more sensitive.

About the Filemanagement: I just figured out that I can Import all my Windows Media player playlists to Itunes so thats not too much of a problem.

But you can´t play FLACS on IPhones do you?

Since I have 98% of my music in CD quality yet, I don´t think it will make a big difference.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] majus22:
The Xperia might have better Bluetooth quality though.. anybody tried that?
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] povilkami:
It is just the loudness. All my headphones are low impedance so I am not sure if the Senheiser HD-600 would be appreciated. I could test those if there is interest and I would need to buy a 6.3mm to 3.5mm adapter.

Regarding the BlueTooth I have noticed that it played much better in a car than the iPhone6 (haven't tried the 7). Full bodied sound vs very lean. Specifically it was noticed with VW navigation system. With a Plantronics handsfree car device there was no notable difference. With Pioneer N-50 network player Sony has a noticebly more open and transparent sound.

Not sure about FLACs on iPhone because I gave up after a couple of atempts :) And I am not entirely sure what you mean by CD quality? As far as I understand its the format that matters, doesn't it? Else you just use the Cloud services (Spotify, Mixcloud), which tend to be far away from CD quality. Or is that iTunes?
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] majus22:
Thx for the Bluetooth testing :)

Sadly you can not play FLACs with Itunes, you have to convert it to some other format, that´s supposed to be equal.

Cd quality is Wav/Wave for me, so that is way better than Itunes downloads, I didn´t and I won´t ever download anything form poor quality itunes store.

But as it stands right now, I´ll get a friends Iphone anyways, since it is cheaper and I really can´t get along with the easy scretched plastic of a 400$ phone, which still bothers me way to much. With an aluminium case I wouldn´t even think about getting another phone..
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] JenItols:
Anecdotally, XC is much better than iPhone (my experience). Also, using MDR-NC31 headphones from Amazon makes this phone fantastic. I get reasonable noise cancelling without a high price or the need to charge the headphones themselves.
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] salocin82:
Does the MDR-NC31EM headset noise canceling function work correctly in the X Compact? Do you listen well?

Because I have seen on the Sony website, which is compatible with Z3 Compact models, but does not mention the X Compact model.

I want to buy an in-ear headset that works and plays well with this smartphone.

Thanks!
