[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2muchpain:
I only consider stock based ROMs. Now I choose between SLIMM, EXPERIENCE, MX ROM and EXISTENZ. I want to know the main differences and which ROM is better.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dinkec27:
Mate Concept ROM Plus is based on Sony's Concept Software,it is theoretically stock.

But between those I would go Existenz.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2muchpain:
Please, explain why.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dinkec27:
Well I haven't used it personally but I believe it was definitely the most popular and best ROM for Z2 before it was ported to Z3c.

It has lots and lots of customization options as you may have saw.

And by reading the thread replies from all of these ROMs,I have saw that people don't really complain much about issues regarding ExistenZ rom.

The best way to know is to try it out,create a backup and flash the ROM,if it ain't working well revert back to your backup and you are solid.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marshalpear:
Concept Rom may sometimes get weird. By that I mean it had the lollipop's YouTube and Video Recording issue, though that can be fixed by changing some system file parameters. I used Concept and I loved the design, stock Google design and I loved it. I've used SliMM for ages. Whenever I tried a new ROM I just had to revert back to SliMM. Because it has the best battery life for me with the best performance. I'm using ExistenZ ROM now, hadn't have any issues but to be honest, battery life is worse than SliMM also the performance too (even though a little bit). I'm using ExistenZ right now because it has many customizations in itself which means lack of many xposed modules, which means (somewhat) better stability. I'm thinking of reverting back to SliMM though, FYI. I tried the EXPERIENCE ROM too. And it was a total disaster for me. Because I didn't like the modifications that Marilia has made into the ROM and I simply couldn't live with it, the phone felt a bit too childish. All in all, the best was always SliMM for me. If you have any question, shoot it mate! (I haven't tried the MX ROM)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2muchpain:
What do you mean on childish?

Thank you for explained answer!!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dinkec27:
He meant too childish like it had a childish theme to it.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucky-2:
I am using Experience and i like it. Even adoptable storage shows free space right. Battery is good, about 2 days with 5 hours screen on time. Supersu update from playstore works fine. Very good and stable rom. I have tested AOXP and MX rom. Both works but Experience was easy to make look like stock with 16 GB adoptable storage.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fluffi444:
The only proper answer for this question is and will ever be: Try them and find it out for your own.

You are already know the four candidates and now its up to you... All four are working. None of them is a failure!

As you see from the given answers everyone has other preferences and whishes.

There is no better or not here...

But if you want to:

Try all four ROMs, use each for one week and make a Rundup of them. Sure - this will reflect only your optinion in particualr but may help other to decide. As faar as I know such an comparrision is not existing up to now.

Actually this is want you are askiung for...
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2muchpain:
Thank you for sharing your experience. It was really useful.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2muchpain:
I'm glad that there is choice between good ROMs. Maybe I will make a comparison later when I recieve replacement parts for my Z3c (if I really won't know which ROM to install).

Does EliteKernel 3 have better performance then Stock or other?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RamHa:
Yes, EliteKernel v3 and after makes phone experience smoother and games r more fluid with some other options available too ;) :highfive:
[Mate 8 General] mahawa:
I used an application called advanced battery calibrator from the play store and after finishing the calibration process the phone takes longer now to fully charge especially from 90 to 100 %.Is there any solution for this problem?
[Mate 8 General] Pfeffernuss:
All battery calibration apps are bogus to begin with, you can't calibrate the battery that way':good:

Charging shouldn't be any slower after using such an app. The charging slows down immensely after reaching 90%, with or without the "calibrating" anyway.
[Mate 8 General] James_Watson:
I don't use any battery apps. :cowboy::)
[Mate 8 General] mahawa:
But it wasn't that slow to charge before i use the app.Now it takes almost an hour to go from 90% to 100%.Is that normal!!
[Mate 8 General] Pfeffernuss:
An hour obviously is not normal. Second charge also takes this long (after a reboot for example)? This I would find surprising.
[Mate 8 General] mahawa:
I also tried airplane mode while charging and completely shutting down the phone with no big difference.
[Mate 8 General] farahdafri:
Same here.. ive tried the app, and my fast charging is not working anymore and it takes about 7h to charge my s7 from 0 to 100% after using other fast charging cable and adapter!! Helps pleaseeeee!!!

I have the same problem. No idea how to fix this.
[Wileyfox Swift 2 Questions & Answers] boa05:
Hello,

This will not get you an account but if the app doesn't let you in, this is a workaround to use it without logging in:

Go into the settings > Lock screen > Lock Screen Mods > 'the little setting icon next to the Static wallpaper'

and you should be in the themes app now. ;)

besides, the workaround that u suggested is not available on my phone. how do i proceed?

Here is an easy step by step tutorial:

1. Download this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sika524.android.quickshortcut

2. Open it, you should be in the activities tab (if not navigate to it)

3. In the text field "Input keyword to filter" type "Theme Chooser"

4. Expand the hopefully one search result and click on the first one

5. Check if it works by clicking on try then click create to add it to your homescreen

I also included a screenshot in my post.

Hope it helps.

P. S. : This is a forum specifically for the Wileyfox Swift 2 Plus.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jamie_Edwards:
Hi guys,

Was wondering if it was possible to disable my proximity sensor? The reason I ask is because since I dropped my phone a couple of weeks ago, it does weird things.

When I try to call someone the proximity sensor registers 8cm (give or take as this is an example) but when I put my face to the phone, it latches on 0cm and never resets to another value. Thus keeping the screen blank.

Same outcome happens when someone calls me.

I'm currently using Lineage OS 14.1 (Android 7.1.1) on the Samsung S5 (SM-G900F klte). I'd rather disable the sensor if it means regaining control of the phone during calls.

Thanks guys!

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] Ernestaas:
Hey guys,

So I've been using my honor 8 for quite a while and I' enjoying it. But yesterday I thought that I have to factory reset my precious Honor. I made backup copy for my apps in HiSuite, and then I was finally ready to factory reset. Although everything went perfect, one problem is driving me crazy... I can't login to Huawei ID... It says something like service in you'r location is not available. Sorry for inconvenience. And well before I did factory reset I've been logged into Huawei ID since I got my Honor 8, I even updated to EMUI 5.0 through HiCare app. So maybe any of you guys know who can be causing this problem?:) Thanks!

EDIT: Just thought maybe I have to include information about my Honor 8. It's FRD-L09C432B360

When I try to register my number it didn't give me the option to use the+44 that I need in the UK.

It was fine Before I updated and factory reset

[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chc1pak:
Hey folks,

I've been having few issues with my phone since i bought it brand new the day it released in Germany (I am not german however, haha) - sometimes it would be slow, it would overheat and apps would be crashing because of that.

In november last year, I decided to try and solve that headache (honestly not worthy of the premium price I paid for it when it was new) by unlocking the bootloader and flashing a different kernel (not sure which one now). All seemed well for a few days, but them the fingerprint scanner stopped working (hardware not found), camera would freeze the phone for about a minute before restarting the whole UI, the battery would drain at a stupidly high rate (1 hour screen on time would leave me with 50 % battery in the afternoon, and I am not even doing anything system heavy) and the bluetooth was as buggy as before (the notorious terrible range of it). :crying:

So i figured the kernel was at fault and decided to flash stock firmware from Sony. I tried 3 different stock firmwares and oh my god, It's still there. I think unlocking the bootloader has inflicted all this. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I could do to get rid of atleast the fingerprint and camera problems? I am almost certain I will replace the phone soon for something else, but for the sake of trying to fix what was wrong from the factory and for the fact I might want to sell the phone, I want to make it work. I don't think returning it to the store for a replacement would work, since I managed to crack the back glass at one point last year and they'll just refuse it for mechanical damage ...

Thanks for any suggestions. Phone's not rooted, I could not figure out a reasonable way on how to do it, I am not very skilled in this regard, even though I had rooted my 2 previous Nexus phones (speaking of which, I miss my Nexus 4, but no 4G and bad battery made me change to Sony).
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chc1pak:

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Original Android Development] LazySmurf:
CyanogenMod is discontinued, there are no more updates. Unofficial releases can still be updated through the normal means, if the developer chooses to continue support. LineageOS is the new Cyanogen. It's available for most popular flagships and previous flagships. I don't think there's one for this phone. You can always look into compiling one yourself, though!

Hi, i'm looking for a good rom for gaming and general use (texting, calling etc) I want it to be able to handle games like Mortal Kombat X (at a playable frame-rate)

Currently i'm running on an old build of Optimized CM13 (Which of course is called LineageOS, but i have an old build so it's still Cyanogenmod) I have also tried Game Booster apps but they don't make that much of a difference.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Try an AOSP ROM, not LineageOS. CyanogenMod never tested the code they threw into the source, leading to lots of bugs and a general slowness for LineageOS.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
I'd recommend you try GLTools or Screen Shift.

Screen Shift can reduce the resolution of your screen, thus improving performance. And yes, it actually works. I'm using it to play Yu-Gi-Oh Duel Links. Without Screen Shift the game is really laggy, not unplayable but not smooth either, with Screen Shift it it's a lot better and smoother. The lowest resolution I recommend, without having black bars, is 480x854.

GLTools kinda does the same, but it also has more advanced options like emulating another CPU/GPU.

It allows you to reduce the graphics and resolution to improve performance or you can also increase them if your phone's is capable of running it smooth at such high settings (which is not the case for you I guess).

I myself am using Screen Shift. GLTools doesn't seem to make any difference to my game at all.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spyroz540:
Ok thanks.

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] rolfey83:
I know there's a B10 on the German ZTE site, but is there an official Nougat yet, its taking so long for the OTA, I've not even had a B10 OTA yet!!

Why do ZTE treat EU customers so badly?

There is no official nougat yet for the A2017G.

The B10 is MM.

I hope we will soon receive Nougat. Keen to play around with Daydream.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] rolfey83:
Hmm its a bit of a joke, I wonder why ZTE see EU as so insignificant.

I'll never buy another ZTE phone again, the EU marketing was also dreadful, I can't speak for the rest of Europe but honestly the ZTEUK Twitter feed was loaded with requests on when the phone will be available, they never gave an answer other than we will tell you when it is, I eventually got one off Amazon through a third party, I should have known it would be like this and could kick myself.

Customer service has to be one of the worst I've ever come across, and the sheer arrogance of ZTE as a company not listening to very high percentage of people on ZTEUS asking for a stock Nougat, they pretend to care, but don't give a stuff what people think at all really.

This has turned into a bit of a rant, sorry about that.

Its just so infuriating!!

Mike
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] iNaruX:
You are better off on MM. Ask the US users about their B15 Nougat experiences, I am currently using Nougat on my EU device. It's very laggy (especially Whatsapp and Firefox, my main 2 apps).

I hope that ZTEMobileDE will be pushing the chinese 7.1.1 version instead of the buggy 7.0 US version.

ZTE as a whole has been very fragmented with their whole EU/US/CN market, but us Europeans have been better off in my opinion, our updates have never been buggy. US feels like a Beta test and chinese people weren't able to use playstore for a while .Let's hope us EU users will get to experience a polished nougat version.

In my opinion, since there's no Xposed for Nougat yet it can wait as much time as necessary. The most important thing is to receive the 7.1.1 version with no bugs.

Updated to B10, everything is pretty much the same, was hoping for the audio to have improved, but its still much lower than its meant to be, yes its OK, but really to have it in Max volume is more than doable, so their isn't any headroom. I have to have it on at least 80% for it to be normal.
