[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] go87.zx:
Are u sure that opx is true black amoled??

What if I say you ... that ..It has a backlight ..

Wanna verify?

Important: make sure u have brightness slider to near low levels. This backlight is not seen at high brightness levels.

Download a gallery like quickpic that lets u open a picture in Fullscreen mode so that picture fills entire screen.

Make a bmp image in ms paint in windows and fill it with perfect black. Or download from some website with hex value coding -enter zero for all numbers

Now load this picture in quickpic or any other Fullscreen gallery.

Switch off every light in ur room .make d room jet dark

Wait a few seconds for your eyes to adapt to darkness

U will see the backlight instead of black.

For more easy recognition see in peripheral field of vision, where low light vision is good. (Focus point of eye doesn't have low light vision ,am a doc.) (see somewhere else, bring in the phone into vision filed)

If u think the gallery is d problem.

Do this same thing in any other amoled phone. You will know the meaning of black.

(I did in Moto x ghost )
[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpaceDye:
It's not a backlight. No AMOLED screen uses a backlight. That would defeat the whole purpose of AMOLED.

What happens is, even if the pixels are black (switched off), they are fed a tiny amount of voltage from the motherboard to allow quick switching of colors so they are never completely turned off. As a result, even when displaying black they emit a very faint glow.

I'm not sure if this only happens on pentile displays (like the one in the OPX and most Samsung phones) and I can't verify since the only AMOLED devices I own are pentile, but my Galaxy S3 Neo also has this "problem". Personally I wouldn't worry too much about it, since even with the glow the blacks are WAY deeper than any LCD display with a backlight can produce.
[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] go87.zx:
Thank God man.

I thought my phone is fake display.

Ur reply is proof that knowledge helps..

Btw just curious.. what are you?? How do you know this information not available in internet... So nice to see you man.

And regarding ur doubt, whether this happens in non pentile array amoled ...

NO.

I own a RGB amoled -Moto x ghost phone. It doesn't happen there.

I will check in moto x droid turbo . My cousin has it. So I will do and post results here.

And I wish to add this :

A 312 ppi RGB amoled (I have moto x ghost, 720p, 4.7 inch) is way better much much better than 440 ppi pentile amoled ( I have opx, full HD 5inch)

If I compare the images, they are much cleaner and sharper than opx . It's like the image has a depth, there is some stillness kind of feel. ...( I use colour control kcal, and so I test the displays in many settings not just default.

For example to make the images look similar as moto x ghost so that we can compare, I use rgb values as 32, 30, 27 value at 123, contrast at 121 and then slide the brightness slider to 3/4 or more.

Now both images look same in terms of how much dark areas are visible , the white wash noted in opx is now gone.

Now the images are ready for comparision.

Now the difference is the sharpness or clarity in rgb amoled. The feel difference i get is that there is depth in RGB. Its has a grip.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Richard Corbett:
I have recently discovered that there is, or was, a ROM upgrade for this device.

Upon examination of the most minute kind on the O2 web site, no such upgrade appears to be available.

If the actually is one can anyone on here direct me to the site from where I can download the software.

A direct email would suit me best

[Sony Xperia XA Ultra Questions & Answers] lrwjr1964:
Can someone please help me? I am trying to use Flashtool for hours now doing what others have done and nothing is working. I have a F3213 Single Sim. I went to restore from TWRP backup and it got to the Sony logo and that's all she wrote. I downloaded the FTF file but when I click on the lightening bolt the new window comes up and see the firmware but all the other boxes are empty. When I went to load the drivers mine was not listed I installed the fastboot and flash drivers from the list. I did notice when it went to install it says if failed to load the Google usb driver. I don't know what that is. I am not a noob to rooting but when it comes to Sony this is a nightmare for me. Can someone please help point me in the right direction as to what I need to do do get this flashtool to work. I've been stressing for 2 days now and I am about ready to just throw this phone away and get a new one if there is no way to fix this. After looking all over the net I don't see anyone with my situation. Am I the lone person with this problem. Any help would be so appreciated.

I've looked and I don't see anyone with the issue that I am having.
[Sony Xperia XA Ultra Questions & Answers] lrwjr1964:
Nevermind, by trial and error I got my TWRP backup to work without using Flashtool, Emma or the Xperia Companion. There is probably an easier way than what i did but hey it worked and I'm back in business.
[P8lite General] AmirGTX:
Hello everyone. Those days I feel some to root my phone (ALE-L21 6.0 Dual SIM) to install custom ROMs like LineageOS with Android Nougat and use apps like WPS WPA Tester but other some I feel not because I'm still in warranty time (it ends after 1 year + the warranty isn't in my country) and I never rooted any device or even used Android (my lase phone was Nokia 110) so today I wanna to know why root is useful and why not and what can I use it for and what's the root dangerous? I need all informations about root. :laugh:

Edit: Is all custom ROMs has bugs? Like Radio FM doesn't work, screen recorder doesn't work or even has a bug?
[P8lite General] Azzureux:
Root was a good thing on earlier versions of Android. Now I don't think it's a necessity.

Custom ROM's seems a good idea, but if you don't have official version from the developers I myself don't recommend it.

You can try deoxed, modified or trimmed versions of stock ROM, to get more features.

If you have a branded phone I recommend to unbrand it to obtain ROM updates easily.

I recommend to keep stock for now because we get security patches from time to time.
[P8lite General] keikari:
I think main reasons for rooting and unlocking bootloader.

1. Devices with small memory you can install apps in to SD-card.

2. If you realy hate ads you can use Adblocking.

3. Install custom ROM or kernel to get better battery life/performance (with some devices these are only stuff that isn't perfectly stable but sill stable enoughfor daily use).

4. Uninstall unessesary system apps.

5. More customizing possibilities like change screen dpi(dots per inch --> smaller value gives smaller icons and text so you can fit more stuff in screen at the same time).

6. There is more things to do but this was of the top of my head.
[P8lite General] fosco_:
IMO root yes, of course, many reasons pick the ones you like most: uninstall bloatware, tweak kernel parameters, activate hidden options, xposed, greenify...
[P8lite General] AmirGTX:
1. I use my device currently and needn't more space.

2. I already have Adguard, it's enough for me.

3. Yes, I've bored from the stock Android theme and want to change it.

4. I needn't to remove system apps because I don't even use them.

5. IDK what's this obviously. :laugh:

6. What else? :D
[P8lite General] AmirGTX:
What's IMO? What's bloatware? What's tweak kernel? What's all this? :silly:
[P8lite General] keikari:
Well I forgot to tell most important reason, because you can : D

Nowdays that's prety much all the stuf that matters for regular user.

Maybe bagroundplayback for youtube if it isn't already possible with regular app.

And it's kind of a plus that you can back backup your full system in TWRP, thought main reson for backups is that you are testing something unstable or new stuff which you can only do with unlocked bootloader.

PS. Your logic in 4 is kind of weird XDD

And dpi is kind of like resolution of screen but still very different but you can think of it as a weird resolution setting
[P8lite General] AmirGTX:
Can you explain more? I didn't got it :cyclops:
[P8lite General] fosco_:
Are you kidding?

IMO = In My Opinion

bloatware = preinstalled apps you don't want but can't remove

tweak kernel = change kernel parameters such as min/max speed, governor, i/o scheduler, gpu speed and so
[P8lite General] Azzureux:
I'll try to be brief.

First I rooted my Samsung Galaxy S plus, android version was 2.3.6. Was a good thing? Yes, I had good devs who not only made Rom's up to Lollipop (I use now KitKat on it) but also repartitioned the space available through Twrp giving me more space for apps.

My next one was Galaxy S3 mini, android version was 4.1. I rooted it. Was a good thing? Yes and No.

Yes was good because I could use apps for backup, to remove bloatware, and posible to try custom ROMs.

No... Because I didn't had good developers, every custom ROMs had issues. That made me feel cautious and only installed stock ROM's that gave me more personalization and stable use of the phone (that doesn't mean I don't have problems with it, but it's mostly caused by apps who are not 100% compatible with KK ROM's).

Now let's talk about P8 Lite.

1. Can I squeeze more time of use from battery? Yes, we got the option <Ultra battery>.

2. Can I disable bloatware? I can't remove apps but I can disable them (MM has an option for it).

3. Can I backup apps and data? Yes. We got an option for it.

4. Can I get security updates for my ROM? Yes, for now we get security updates from Huawei.

5. Can I customize my ROM? To a point... Yes, you can customize the interface through themes, and the theme itself using other apps.

6. Can I get Nougat (version 7 of Android).

No, and you can start blaming Google for the requirements asked for it.

Yes, if you buy the 2017 version of the phone.

Sorry I was not brief. :good:
[P8lite General] AmirGTX:
Oh alright +1, why I need root else? (I'm just collecting info b4 rooting my device)
[P8lite General] AmirGTX:
Awesome, that's why I want to root it but I'm still waiting until LineageOS be available and stable without bugs for me. I bought my phone last year and updated it to MM 6.0 at 7 month of last year, now I have UPDATE.APP (got it from here) it has no bugs and too stable for me. So I saw tutorials here for rooting my device but it were too much big and I need to use my computer. NP if I used my computer but can't I root it using apps suck as KingRoot and then install the ROM? Also I want to know all thing about bootloader and unlocking it and all thing in this operation. I want to know to be deep for such as problems. Thanks for info :o
[P8lite General] Azzureux:
Few years ago, when we could not imagine that phones can get ROM updates, no one bothered about bootloaders. But after few years they were shocked to see old clients use same depleted phones with new ROM's.

If you look back, when Google started to release Android 3 and up, we can see that the manufactures didn't try to much to improve "the smartphones", the selling ideology was the same as before, manufactures imagined just few improvements for the new models.

But then iPhone appeared, Samsung Galaxy smartphone line appeared and rules changed. Everyone tried to sell smarter phones on the market, Apple had a closed system so everyone looked at Google and android delivered.

So after the "Wild West" period, manufactures wanted more control over their devices, don't forget that devices had hardware in many configurations, so to prevent bricked phones, to try to stop clients from destroying their devices and after ask for guaranty, bootloaders were invented. It's a compromising way for users to obtain root access and avoid warranty claims.

Now, we see that Google stepped a bit, with Android 7, by limiting the compatibility asking for minimum hardware from manufactures. It's a way to make clients buy new devices. Same thing we saw at Microsoft when it released Vista and up. It's a good way for manufactures to stop companies like CM to make unwanted ROM's updates. At the beggining CM ROM's where 100% bug free, but now we can't say the same. Manufactures don't release drivers for hardware so developers to implement new versions of Android on old devices.

For me the only viable option for ROM updates is stock modifications that try to remove restrictions in the software available thru all the world.

But why is Huawei giving a legal way to unlock the bootloader? It's a very easy way to see who still got guaranty and who is out of guaranty. And also it's a way to keep clients close by getting ROM updates faster, it's basically a removal of the middle man (manufactures can't live without firms that do installment sales) a way to increase the overall sales.

Imagine a person who needs a smartphone but can't afford it. Carriers can give devices for less, manufactures get the full price, and carriers get the whole price with interest over a limited period. And now manufactures have a problem, they need to keep clients of carriers happy, and need to push updates on the devices. Carriers see this as a loss of control, but can't make the manufacturer to keep the system closed. So for legal requirements bootloaders were invented.

You can ask for root, but manufactures and Google is giving secure control over the devices, that basically do same thing as apps that required root.

My final advice: if you don't plan to learn about android ROM development, if you don't plan to be a developer, then don't root. Wait until you get a new device, maybe with the new iteration of ROM. If you see something you like, then you can start learning and start developing.

:silly: can't believe i wrote so much. Happy reading and good luck. ;)
[P8lite General] AmirGTX:
Extremely awesome and thanks a lot. I want to start to learn about root but IDK from where can I start! There are no way to root any Android emulator and learn from it or executing on main device would be more stable?
[P8lite General] ItalianWolf:
IMO, root device it's a personal choice, the important question is:

There's something that you want to do and you can't because you need root?

To install custom rom you don't need root, you have to unlock bootloader, install a custom recovery (TWRP) and finally you can flash you custom rom (generally already rooted!)
[P8lite General] AmirGTX:
Ciao amico mio ? (some Italian from school ?) can you give me a tutorial for this? I need to try. Also why there are a lot of stuffs to root ALE-L21? What if I used apps such as KingRoot?
[P8lite General] ItalianWolf:
Ciao! :D

Kingroot, if it's working again, isn't a good root solution; i've tried (we were with lollipop) but messed up a lot of things so i had to re-flash stock firmware.
