[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] borisb:
Hello all.

I got the LG v20 but my wife really wants a new phone.

Should I get the 6gb version for myself or should I get her the 4gb version.

In terms of camera and UI speed. How do you think all compare? Meaning the v20 and both axon phones.

Any other aspects I should be thinking about?

Thank you.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Controllerboy:
I think the LG V20 is a superior phone to the A2017, but that's normal, it's a phone double the price of the Axon. If you already have that, I don't see a real reason for buying an axon 7. If I were you I'd keep the LG V20 for yourself and ask her what she would use her new phone for. Unless she's someone who really needs the best of the best, loves tinkering with phones and needs all the newest features, I doubt she would be disappointed by, let's say, a nexus 5X...

The Axon camera is no good, really. Much worse than my previous N5X. I doubt the 2GB RAM difference between the two axon versions is noticeable. ATM there's not much use for the Force Touch feature of the most expensive model, as well...
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] tabletalker7:
First question is your location. If you are in the USA then the Axon 7 is the way to go. The Chinese and European models seem to have more bugs and less frequent updates. As far as the 4gb or 6gb versions I would have to say the 4gb wins. 99 percent of smartphone users have no use for the extra ram and the other bells and whistles you get with the 6gb version doesn't justify the price increase.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] borisb:
Gotcha .... thank you
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Cyrus D.:
The Axon 7 can't compare to the V20, they're not in the same league. You get what you pay for, at least until OnePlus get their act together. The camera specifically is by far the weakest point of the A7. As far as flagship level phones go the camera on the A7 might actually be the worst one around. In anything but straight up brightly lit areas the camera produces garbage. It's utterly useless in low light, forget ever taking a photo at night with it. I'm not sure if the sensor is actually that horrible, or if ZTE's trash tier software is the main culprit.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] tabletalker7:
Yeah you are right. Spend way too much on a phone. Sure beats spending half that on a phone, 150 on a decent camera, and still having 200 or more play with in your wallet. If you hate the axon 7 so much why are you in axon 7 forums?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Cyrus D.:
He already owns the V20, no one is telling him to go out there and buy another one. Just because I own the device doesn't mean I'm going to pretend it's magic and sell false ideas to those asking questions. The camera is flat out the worst of anything out there targeting the flagship level overall.

You people who get angry and defensive over any non-endearing words towards your mega corporation built devices are something else.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] atcrip:
First of all, you don't need 6gb ram. I would wait until next gen that uses 830 snapdragon processors, maybe even next after that. Right now it probably only drains more battery.

I only own an axon7 4gb(for less than a week). V20 was my second choice but decided to go with axon 7. The following might be a little biased.

Screen - Axon 7 has better screen. Lg v20 still uses LCD which will have more issues with to much light. You won't find a better screen on any phone within $400. v20 has a bigger screen but that might be an issue for some people

Camera - Axon 7 has a terrible camera. It's not that bad tough. It only suffers in low light scenarios (night time). During day and with manual mode the camera can take decent photos, as well as other phones. It also have problems with focus. A software update might fix all the issue tough. The best camera out there, I think it's on samsung galaxy phones and iphone 7.

Battery - LG has removable battery which was the main reason I considered LG v20. Axon 7 battery is better tough (almost last twice as long according to reviews)

Performance - they should be equal. Lg v20 has 135k score on antutu benchmark. Average axon7 should be on 135k ish as well. On my Chinese axon 7 I got 142k .

Durability - LG v20 is better, but axon 7 is no joke as well. The quality is at least as good as other flagships, if not better

Audio - Both lg v20 and axon7 have the best audio on market. Lg v20 might be better with headphones while axon7 is better with speakers.

As you can't see lg v20 isn't much better even tough double the price. No matter what flagship you buy, there aren't that much differences and there are always compromises.

I chose axon7 because I don't take picture to often and it can still take average-good pictures if i want to.

Something significantly better than both of them would be iphone7 and that is about it.

Something interesting, but not necessarily better is "Xiaomi Mi Mix Mobile Phone Snapdragon 821 6GB RAM 256GB ROM 6.4"Full Screen 2040x1080P FHD Ceramics 4400mAh Battery"

Hmm Ceramic. But was to outside of my price range. Nearly 1k euro.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] dbdossan:
Hi,

Iâ€™m from Portugal and Iâ€™ve bought a Mi5 some days ago.

I have a problem for which I donâ€™t find any solution.

The phone came with a modified fake ROM from the Chinese store but was working fine.

I unlocked the phone and installed TWRP to flash other ROMs. I flashed MIUI 8 global stable and a custom ROM from Xiaomi.eu without any problem.

Everything was working fine with the phone but I noticed that a lot of files from prior fake ROM (the one from the Chinese store) remained in the phone. So I decided to swipe everything in TWRP (including system and internal storage) and flashed MIUI Global Stable ROM again.

From this point, I never again been able to connect to a WiFi network and the 2G, 3G LTE connection became very weak and instable. The phone scan the wifi network available without problem, but after introducing the password, it tries to connect and just shows â€œSavedâ€.

I tried a lot of stuff. Static IP, reboot router, change router channel, change router security settings, flash different ROM, tweak build.prop file, but the problem persist.

In the phone test menu, when I try to connect to a WiFi I see that the phone scan, connect, disconnect, scan, connect, disconnectâ€¦

Any help?

Do you think itâ€™s Hardware related issue? Or phone firmware and driver problem?

Iâ€™ll be very grateful for any assistance.

Hello

Yesterday I got the phone and I have exactly the same situation. Tried the same things, also flashing RR Nougat, RR Marshmallow, MIUI 7 and 8. Wifi isn't working in any situation. Did you solve it? Anyone have some ideas with it?
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] paulvista2012:
try another ROM

Just try the ROM "cm-13.0-20161211-NIGHTLY-gemini" .

My mi5 had the same problem when I got it, so I try unlock, bootloader, new cm14 rom, even went to change sim card, cause can't access 4G, still no luck. Then I backed to official ROM, factory reset, still have wifi and 4G problem. Finally after try the cm13 ROM, every thing became fine. It took me 5 days to resolved it.

FYI, mi5 's wifi signal strength is poor than others as so many complain you can see on the miui forum.:mad:
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] Scheig:
Tried that CM build, still nothing. I found in dev tools option to debug WIFI, and all the time I have RSSI of -127, even if I'm literally 1m from source (also I tried many sources). I'm out if ideas. Also It's not reception problem, because original ROM (like OP, probably fake global MIUI) had WIFI working just fine for me.

I did exactly as taught by Pekkuky and tried with another randomly generated MAC. That also worked.

Hello, did you make sure that the MAC address was actually changed? In my case, a reboot was necessary for the modification to take effect.

[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] masruradi:
Are the same step above??

Why my wlan file,the latest one is not an number??

Sorry for my bad,help me please,i have been try this way,but still same
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] Ublah:
The numbers are hexadecimal numbers. That means that the letters A-F are used as extra numbers. Instead of going 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 they go 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F, 10, 11. So 10 in hexadecimal is the same as 16 in decimal (normal) numbers. You can look up hexadecimal on Wikipedia if you want to learn more.

If your values contain only 0-9 and A-F, all is well. If your new MAC-address ends with a letter A-E, you can change it to the next letter. If your number ends in F you can change the F to a 0, and add 1 to the second-to-last number. Some examples:

3D + 1 = 3E

3E + 1 = 3F

3F + 1= 40

40 + 1 = 41.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] masruradi:
ok in this case im getting confused,

actually my MAC address is XXXXXXXXX7C,and the second in 7D,

I've been change them to 7D and 7E,but nothing happen,can you help me please,i need my wifi back :crying:

sorry for my bad english
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] Ublah:
You should generate a completely new MAC-address. Google generate MAC address and the first hit probably contains some kind of tool.

Alternatively, you could use this:

Intf0MacAddress=2AA370B73906

Intf1MacAddress=2AA370B73907

END

Just make sure to backup your original file
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] masruradi:
Will try,thanks very much

Its work man,oh thanks for your help dude,thank you very very much,finally my wifi back,thanks dude

I have some kind of different issue with 5Ghz WiFi on Mi5. My phone cannot detect 5Ghz SSID from router (confirming my router is OK) while the handset can create portable wifi hotspot with 5Ghz band, and that works fine. Any solve to that problem?
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] sleeepwalkr:
After installing another firmware problem goes again. How to fix it permanently?
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] sdspieg:
Took me a while to figure this out. When generating a MAC address, do not use the first one that shows up on Google, as it does not generate valid MAC addresses. What DID work for me was this one. You can always double-check the validity of the address here. So for me, this made all the difference between this trick not working, and working perfectly.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] Royher:
help please I have the same problem as I can to solve it. I already did the procedure and it does not change my mac address...:crying:

# Each byte of MAC address is represented in Hex format as XX

Intf0MacAddress=000AF58989FF

Intf1MacAddress=000AF58989FE

Intf2MacAddress=000AF58989FD

Intf3MacAddress=000AF58989FC

update to ROM linage os 14.1

What I can do. Does that appear to me, what numbers or letters can I change? ...
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] Carlosbgx:
So amazing!! What happened to me was that only on MIUI official and for example .eu wifi worked, but when I changed to Lineage OS / Pixel, Havoc... it simply didnt. Following the steps I noticed that the MIUI mac had been modified (by only one letter) and thats what it didnt allow it to work. If your case is like mine, simply follow the tutorial and put the MAC ID of the MIUI ROM and it should work as normal (so no need to look for the mac of older phones if u dont have any)

Thanks so much!

I've found a way to boot directly into bootloader/fastboot mode.

Press simultaniously the Vol+ and the power button until the red light lit up. Then instantly leave the two buttons and press the Vol- button until you see the fastboot menu. You're done!!
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Boutchoo:
This trick to boot into Stock Bootloader/recovery has been known for years and is used on many different Android device :)

Still, it's great that you participate in this forum !
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] tron1:
I see you don't get it. Up to now the only way to get into fastboot was via "adb reboot bootloader". Or from a successfully installed TWRP.

The "for years" known combinations will get you only into Recovery (Power + Vol up), FTM (Power + Vol down), or into EDL respective the useless DFU mode (Power + Vol up + Vol down). In case you've killed your recovery and your bootimg you now have a additional option to come back to a functional system. Especially for the A2017g with the useless DFU mode.

Can anyone with bricked A2017G confirm?

Confirmed NOT WORKING .
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] DeJe63:
It doesn't matter if it's working or not. Thanks for the info anyway.

Neither stock recovery nor fastboot will help if you're stuck in DFU mode for G model. You can't do anything to recover the device in neither mode. All what helps is previously had enabled "allow BL unlock" in developer options. This gives you the possibilty to flash a stock ROM from external SD card. It still needs to be aproved from a bricked "DFU" user!
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] tron1:
Would you kindly tell us what is not working? Don't you see the menu? Or don't you know what to do with fastboot?

In case you managed it to get into fastboot the next step would be to get into edl by using this trick. -->

[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] tron1:
ZTE crippled the loader in a bad ass way. But they left the flash command inside. So it should be possible to flash at least a working recovery to the system if you manage it to get into bootloader. As long as my phone is working I won't try it on it. So volunteers!! :)

Hint -->

fastboot flash <partition> [ <filename> ] write a file to a flash partition

fastboot erase <partition> erase a flash partition

Or should i contact ZTE for a new phone?
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Oki:
I have bricked my Axon 7 several times this weekend, but new Qualcomm chipsets are unbrickable!!!!

1. There is a way to enter directly to EDL on most Qualcomm devices and works also in the Axon 7. Just ensure your phone is off, then press the three buttons at the same time. The red light will blink once, after that blink release the three buttons (you must be very quick releasing the buttons, otherwise the phone will turn on.

2. Plug your phone to your computer. Windows 10 should detect a new USB device QUSB_BULK without any warning message. Then you can use axon7tool to flash the original boot and recovery (stock or tenfar's signed TWRP).

After that, you will be able to enter into recovery, do a factory reset and then you will be able to restore de initial image from an SD formatted as FAT32 (no, exFAT is not supported by stock recovery) in case of stock recovery. Sideload will not work, always stop before finishing the transmission.
