[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] LimitsX:
Pixel XL camera is only good with HDR enabled. Otherwise, its a piece of trash tbh. It lacks OIS so its not good. I had Pixel XL for 1 month, its good in network reception when compared to Samsung devices. Camera is debate able. I looked into Huawei mate 9, and its amazing device! It has strong network chip that supports LTE cat 12/13, similar to pixel xl and g5. Mate 9 has more bands enabled for WCDMA and LTE. For me, $1K CAD price, i would pick mate 9 since its android, or iphone 7 plus (if i didn't hate IOS and closed ecosystem).

Pixel XL isn't worth such a high price, if you look at it objectively, its just not.

But do your research and see what you prefer, in terms of usage and what not. For general to enthusiastic users, mate 9 or oneplus 3T are good devices.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] bimmerboii:
I use both on a daily basis. Pixel XL 128gb is my personal phone, Mate 9 is work issued.

Since you posted in the Mate 9 forum, you will get a lot of Mate 9 love. And I understand that because I love my Mate 9 too. I love both the Pixel XL and the Mate 9. When you say that you are not enjoying it too much, do you mean that you are bored with it? Because I am too. I guess that is what Vanilla Android is. But the Pixel will always be the better phone. The fact that it is pure Vanilla Android, the smoothness of its UI and will always be in the latest version is what you paid for. The camera is rated best camera by every single reviewer, and even in my own comparison. Screen is sharper, specially if you use daydream which the Mate 9 isnt compatible with. And even if it is compatible, its screen PPI wont be as enjoyable as the Pixels. You get unlimited full res photo backup (which is a pretty big deal for me as I have moved my entire lifes photo collection to Google Photos)

Yes im bored with the Pixel too. When I got the Mate 9 it was like a breath of fresh air. Screen is bigger and the UI seems to be more "colorful". Camera is also pretty good. But the Pixel will still best it. After the honeymoon phase of my new Mate 9, it got boring too. As with every device I own. In my opinion, battery is better with the Mate 9. But not by much. The Pixel already lasts me a whole day. Both are on Android Nougat, but guess who will receive first the next major iteration of Android (O) ? And even Android (P)? You get dual sim support which is nice to have (but doesnt really matter to me as work issues its own phones).

So if I had to choose only 1, id stay with my Pixel XL. The Pixel is the better phone (in my opinion) especially when you take into account its long term use (future upgradeability). But if you are a gadget freak like me and change phones all the time, it probably wont matter. As soon as the next gen Pixel is out ill get my hands on one.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] greyhulk:
It's not like you can buy a Pixel XL anyway. They haven't been in stock since November and won't be in stock again until March. By then, a lot of newer phones will be out that blow the Pixel away. If you want a new phone now, the Mate 9 is your choice. It's a solid phone.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] jordy787:
I think I'm just bored of it because vanilla Android is plain. I have a Verizon model with locked bootloader which is AWFUL..So can't modify anything.Hopefully someone comes out with a 7.1.1 exploit. I use to have a mate 8 and loved it..Maybe I'll give the mate 9 a try in a month or so
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] jordy787:
I already have the pixel, but may give the mate 9 a try.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] Jess813:
Best honest response, and I've owned both and agree. Pixel XL 2 is so... Tempting. I looked and they go for $650, I'll wait until they go a little lower but it's tempting.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] danpedraza:
For me it's a no-brainer the mate 9 is the best device to have. I've owned both and I can attest that the mate 9 is a beast of a phone. It has the large screen great camera and great display although it's only 1080p. Feels very good and premium with its all aluminum housing. But what really separates this phone from all the others is really two things the first is the Kirin 960 processor and the 4000 milliamp battery. The processor was able to handle everything that I threw at it even high-end High intensive Graphics games and I had maybe 40-50 apps open at the same time and never experienced a freeze or slow down. But that's not even the best part the best part is that the battery I routinely use my phone at least 40-50 times a day and for long periods and I always got at least a day and a half sometimes two days of use from one charge. And it accomplish this feat by not putting a battery that makes it too bulky or too wide or something like that it's just a regular slim battery and it actually does get you through about 2 days of use. I love the phone and can't wait to purchase the 10 Pro despite the US government's warning. You know what I think about that warning I think it's a bunch of baloney because every single phone that we use whether it's a Samsung or an apple comes from a factory in China they're all made on the same assembly line so don't give me any of this stupid warning stuff.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] Jess813:
Agreed, the Mate 10 Pro or the Pixel will be my next phone. I am currently rocking the all black Mate 9, I have no complaints, but the Pixel line up is tempting. I'm keeping my eyes on Swappa and they have 2 Mate 10 Pro for around $550, not bad.

how i did not notice this rom... bluh

btw, any news for flat version... battery? how it holds up?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] TheProphet173:
Rom is awesome at first, love smart manager :D but battery life should be confirmed tho, here`s what i found so far...

Installation bug:

- if you choose AryaMod while installing, you`r done... install does not completes and if you reboot, you`r in bootloop

- Choosing SCloud & SAccount and/or some samsung apps is pointless, won`t be installed

It needs little more control for users like:

- let user choose Magisk or SuperSU (at least SuperSU Systemless mode)

- Long click on home button to open Google Now (Button shortcut can be edited, but opening Now On Tap (Assistant) is not an option, just searching app which brings Google App, which is useless)

- Let users choose in Aroma which Google apps will be installed

- Option to disable permission popup on app install (it`s ok, but really a problem when restoring titanium backup files)

p.s not able to install themes, i have checked free theme option in aurora settings, it has something to do with it? or what is exactly meaning of free themes
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] TheProphet173:
+

call recorder does not work, i had to edit feature.xml
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] Ouweshs28:
AROMA I FIXED IT CHECK IT AGAIN BUT I WILL FIX SOUND MOD IN NEXT VERSION INSTALL MANUALLY

I will add app permissions/magisk in aroma

I won't add google apps its already basic in the rom and the rest you can install

for the themes disable free themes theme store should work

thanks for your feedback
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] TheProphet173:
app permisions is very useful also, but popup on every install is bit annoying. Gapps is not a prob and about themes...

i figured it out disabling will help, but, free themes looks promising :D :D
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] marufsr:
Still bootloop man. Any Solution? i did everything you said bro.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveri] TheProphet173:
One more bug that i have encountered on every custom made touchwiz rom:

when usb is plugged in with usb debugging, not only icon is not shown, but in android studio when you debug app, no log is sent until you switch to Android Monitor mode(it says connected to machine but log does not appears) which is practically collecti g all debug mode app logs.

Is there any way to fix this? no other rom developer fixed this issue, but it's really useful thing...

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m249tink:
My wife bought an HD8 (16gb) as a gift in Nov 16. The recipient gave it back the other day, saying it doesn't work. The screen will only boot to what can be described as a bunch of colored lines covering the entire screen. There is no evidence of screen damage or case damage. It looks to be used very little. I called Amazon and they credited me the price of this one, sold me a new 32gb HD8, and said keep this one. Is there anything that I can try to get this working again and rooted? Have tried hard resets (e.g. POWER button > 40 sec, POWER + VOL. + > 40 sec, and POWER + VOL. - > 40 sec) but nothing gets me past the above screen.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ¿GotJazz?:
From what you are saying and what you tried, you're probably skrewd.

Do you see a Fire, Portable, or MTP device appear on your PC when you connect the USB port to your PC?

If you can tell if the tablet is "Off", try pressing "Vol -" (the left side) & "Power" at the same time for about 5 seconds. If you then press the "Vol -" button once and then the "Power" button, it will put you into ADB sideload Mode ... see if you get an ADB device recognized on your PC from that.

If that works, you can try doing an "adb sideload xxx.bin" using the latest HD8 binary. (You should use the latest, since that has the lowest chance of bricking your tablet)

Best of luck!

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Balashe:
Hello !

At first I apologize for my English, I am French.

So i used the custom ROM Validus and this problem appears for every ROM. Like you know, when you root, you can't use snapchat and u need to login before you root your phone. So i installed Validus, i install all apps i need and login (included snapchat) but after that when i flash super su, my phone reset and i have a error message which flashes. In the message i have ".com.android" something and i'm obliged to shutdown the phone, reset the phone and re-install the ROM.

And this appears with all ROM (Tesla, Tuga etc...) and i don't know how can i use snapchat acutally.

I tried to disable super user in the app, doesnt work

I saw we can use xposed app but for 7.1.1, it's not possible actually

Any ideas ?

Thanks,
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Inciter:
Snapchat discorvers root as it denies working on it. After flashing install snapchat and login. Then return to recovery and install SU afterwards. Possibly you have to use tools like RootCloak.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Balashe:
It's what i tried to do (without RootCloak) and when i do that, i lost all my data (like i wipe all data when i try to install SU...) but RootCloak works for 7.1.1 ? Because i already tried to flash Xposed, doesnt work (error 1)
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Inciter:
Try SUHide. Though the data wipe seems odd.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Balashe:
I tried to flash suhide after flash ROM, doesnt work, the ROM don't charge (the loading of the ROM don't stop)

PS : I tried with Validus ROM and others, same things
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Inciter:
Here's a workaround for Nexus 6. Maybe it's working on 3T as well. Something else I found here.

Nevertheless, the auto data wipe is strange. Did you clean or dirty flash?
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Balashe:
I don't know what is dirty flash ? What i know is i alway wipe all data before install any custom ROM

But I found a solution. I installed Root Swich, it's a simple app which allows to deactivate the root and activate it as you want.

So i disabled root and install snapchat and login successfully.

But i want to understand why when i want to flash super su for any custom ROM i have a auto data wipe :/
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Inciter:
Since your device is beyond my reach I can't help investigating the problem. Maybe the data is not really deleted but r/w permissions have just been modified and cannot be accessed any more. But anyway, I'm glad your found a workaround.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Balashe:
Thanks for your help anyway !

Now I just need someone who knows how can i fix the problem of data. Cause if one day i will need to flash something, it's gonna wipe the data of my phone

Maybe if i do a clean factory reset or something ? Cause i used my 3T a lot cause of this to find a solution so maybe something happenned when i tried so many things. (Test of ROM etc ...)
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Balashe:
I have more information, when I install any custom ROM and after that I want to flash super su, wipe cache etc ... I boot on the ROM normally but i see my phone haved a factory reset and i have this ".com.android.phone has stopped" Impossible to remove the message and I am forced to wipe again data and reinstalll the ROM.

Conclusion : I can install ROM but after that, i can not do anything, if i do anything, BOUM, reset factory. And i don't understand why ....

I tried the last (Unofficial) TWRP but when i tried to boot on the ROM after flashing it, my phone didn't boot on the ROM but always on TWRP.

Maybe I brick my phone but i can use it, i don't have storage problem or others so ...

I'm lost ... Any ideas ?

Which recovery you are using?

The version
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Balashe:
I have this issue only flashing super su, when i try to boot into recovery and then reboot into the ROM, nothing happened.

I use 3.0.3.1, when i tried 3.0.4.0 and flash a ROM, the phone only boot on recovery and not into the ROM
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] J4DedPrez:
I'm actually having a similar issue. One day my phone was acting weird and I had to force reboot. I noticed after that I lost root. I've tried flashing SuperSU again, and it flashes fine but I still don't get root. This morning I upgraded to 4.0.3, and tried flashing root, and same thing no root.

The weirdest part is I can flash a custom kernel with TWRP 3.0.3.1 and the kernel flashes fine and I have the custom kernel, if I try flashing SuperSU, it flashes fine but I get no root AND it removes the custom kernel!!! Everything I'm using is the most updated too. What gives? I want root back....
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] technohunter123:
Picked up a Cricket Core Prime during a sale and was wondering if I could get a Lollipop update. If not, are there any recommended mods/tweaks for this phone to be more usable as a backup phone for my Moto Z? Right now, it has poor battery life and TW is as ugly as always.
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] Jrhotrod:
Yes, really great modifications you can make. Unfortunately, you probably won't be able to get Lollipop if Cricket hasn't released an update for it, so make sure you've checked your system update in settings to make absolute sure that you can't upgrade.

First of all, root it. You can get rid of the bloat and tweak it. This should be really easy if it hasn't gotten the Lollipop update yet.

Second, install Nova Launcher. It is way better than TouchWiz and makes your phone feel like stock Android.

Third, get some good root apps. Obviously get SuperSU but also try out greenify to improve your battery life. There are all kinds of great root apps out there if you just look them up.

And due to the crappy storage, install some sort of app that can automatically clear your cache, because that cache can suck up a lot of data. If you can get a MicroSD card, I highly recommend it to store photos and apps on.

Other than that, that's about all

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Nobody121:
I don't think I can edit the title so I'll write it here for anyone who wants to help: This problem is SOLVED. (Y)

So the matter is a bit complicated and I can't guarantee I even remeber everything I did but I'll try to include as much detail as I can:

I had the Stock Rom (OOS4.0.0) running, OEM unlocked & rooted when the OOS4.0.1 OTA notification kept nagging in the back of mind. I thought I should just leave it ago because I already had a feeling it would go wrong...

So I download the Full .zip and flashed it through TWRP 3.03-1 and after that it was stuck on the boot screen for more than 15 minutes or so. So I restarted it again and this time it booted butall my data was deleted and it gave me an error about the encryption having failed. But as you probably know, one can't flash anything on an encrypted phone so I checked back in TWRP and it was really encrypted. Checked back in the phone's settings: Also encrypted. I then used a tool to force decryption (it also wipes all the data) and I was back to square one.

From that moment on I tried: 1. restore nandroid (all partitions included [that includes EFS]). It got me to the booting screen, but when I unplugged it shut down and a reboot got me to the battery screen. I had 72% left so at this moment I thought it had nothing to do with it not booting at 72%. Then I wiped everything (checked every box in TWRP) and was left without any OS. Then I let my phone charge to 100% and re-restored the nandroid OOS4.00 and it worked but I had the Unlock-Bug, I was able to fix that. Then it booted but it wasn't able to recognize any SIM cards, so I fixed that by re-re-restoring with TWRP 3.03-0 (which automatically replaced 3.0.3-1 after the nandroid) and everything worked fine. until I went out today and realized I had no mobile data. I doubt it has something to do with EFS because everything else is working fine (calling, checking IMEI wih *#06#).

I then proceeded to check the APN and it looked ok, I then tried another SIM card (from the same provider) and it didn't change anything.

My provider is the german company 1&1 (1und1) but it uses vodafone APN.

I have no clue what to do right now so I am asking you guys for help.

Thanks in advance!
