[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Ryland Johnson:
Are we reaching a stage with our mobile phones where they have become cameras with a phone attached? :confused:

Ryland
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] nosympathy:
not even close, while the S8+ camera is great, it doesn't hold a candle to my Canon T6i and there are way better cameras than mine.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Ryland Johnson:
Sorry I poorly wrote my post. What I mean is, is the main focus on today's mobiles centered around the camera. I know any DSLR will produce better picture quality. Its just that so much is made of the cameras in today's mobile phones? They appear number one priority when making a mobile phone choice?

Sorry about the confusion.

Ryland :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] nosympathy:
I agree it's an important decision. It's not my main one though but it's high on the list. If you think about it, people spend a lot of time capturing pictures for facebook, instagram, etc. and you want to have a good camera but not have to carry a dedicated camera everywhere you go. I like to take pictures a lot and sometimes for those surprise moments (dogs doing something funny) I just don't have the ability to grab my bulky DSLR and take pictures.

thing is I want these pictures to look good later, if you just want the pictures for social media it only matters so much because the compression kills quality. I hate uploading pictures from my DSLR to facebook, feels like taking a ferrari and taking a hammer to it. Ruins the picture that much to me.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MykOne:
smart phones are social media driven, more people spend time on FB, Twitter and snap chat then they do making calls and texting and that's what these manufactures focus on when they build the phones.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] galaxys:
Been using my devices​ many years for Internet activity 90%! Use my my laptop less and less...
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] bryce850:
I barely use the camera it's an afterthought to me, speed and power are my main focus points.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Ryland Johnson:
I seldom if ever use the camera. I do accept though that I am the vast minority on that point. It was just a passing thought how many reviewers take the camera so seriously yet seldom to never mention signal strength.

I live way out in the country so need a mobile that pulls that reception in. The best where the old Nokia. Worst I have owned in that respect have been HTC though we now never see that brand in this country. Sony are good, Sony also produce some of the most agreeable sound via headphones. They should they more or less pioneered the 'mobile sound'.

The S8+ also pleases with a decent sound reproduction via head phones. The screen is top quality also. Its a very accomplished mobile device to own. I ponder what comes next and where the ceiling for such technology lies and in what direction?

[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naturisticseeing:
I got the phone. It came with a nice theme Default(magazine) which I liked (there were others as well). Then I updated to EMUI 4.0 and now I can only see Obsidian(magazine). For me, the only option for themes are Huawei's default ones. How can I get them back?
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00148:
Did you update your phone ,, officially" through that app Updater? Cuz sometimes when I get my phone bricked, after unbricking it and installing the latest firmware - firstly I download the B170 to get IMEI, then I install the latest firmware, everything downloaded from PC, then copied files to phone and installed it from the Updater app. After that I just see the Obsidian (or whatever name it is) theme. But if you want to install another, there are plenty of them.

EDIT: Maybe Huawei deleted the rest of them in EMUI 4? Because I don't have them too...
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naturisticseeing:
Thanks for your reply! I am kinda sad to hear this because I can't really find a good team from the Themes app ones. Which theme do you use and how did you get it?
[P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00148:
Yeah, the ones in that app are really bad. Here are some links for good themes:

https://huaweiemuithemes.blogspot.cz/?m=1

https://plus.google.com/communities/114257932105227891217

The first one has a lot nice themes and the second one is like a Google Plus group (they also post new themes)

When installed (must be in .hwt format!!! and it must be for EMUI 4 and lower, versions for EMUI 5 won't work at all), transfer it to internal storage into this file: HwThemes (something like that, I don't remember it, since I use another ROM). Finally go to Themes app and click on Mine or whatever and choose your desired one. Good luck!

[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] mikerowes69:
No problem. Yes I works. The G5 Plus XT1687 can pretty much grab all 5 major networks without an issue. So any MVNO uses any of the big 5 can use the network. Freedompop uses Sprint and AT&T networks I know so you should be great. Nothing yet for the 600 Mhz yet, as alot of that spectrum was just purchased. At the end of the year some networks will begin using it here in the US.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] kartam:
Hi, I've been using Uni with BL+ and Radio 1.17 quite a while and it worked good, but after I switched my operator to Orange PL i have noticed that my device often hangs, even on incoming call, making it impossible to answer, mainly the phone module seems to work ungood and hangs the whole unit... what can I do? Should I flash my radio to another one? If yes, which one would you recommend? 1.15, 1.18 or 1.09? (or something else)?

(Videocall doesn't work either, it worked with my previous operator.)

I would say it is comparable, I am not impressed with the Stock camera experience. MZP are not known or bought because of the quality of the camera.

How to root Validus

Edit-i flash SuperSu zip

And got root
[Ground Zero ROMS Development] KrackerJak13:
Flashed superSU and installed the app it does not find root same as magisk isn't finding root.

Magisk is pre-installed.

Well i don't know, you're the only one with this issue, so without log from you i can't know why.

Grab a log while root checker app fails.

Wich superSU did u flashed?

Today I had strange situation -- I've restored Validus 1.7 from twrp backup but it restarted all the time to recovery ,so I dirty flashed it again and rom booted but I couldn't unlock it :-/ . So all ended in clean flash --- not very comfortable :-/
[Ground Zero ROMS Development] f_ries:
After flashing some Oreo ROM I noticed similar behaviour. What helped was shutting the phone down after flashing instead of rebooting. Then starting it normally via power button. Maybe this works for you, too.
[Ground Zero ROMS Development] josip-k:
You need to remove lock settings after restoring. It's like that on every rom. When you restore a backup, go to twrp file manager, data/system and delete locksettings.db, and voila.
[Ground Zero ROMS Development] sebx_g1:
I never used to do that - is it Oreo specific thing ?
[Ground Zero ROMS Development] josip-k:
I wouldn't know, i rarely take backups, but if you delete that it doesn't have a screen lock anymore.
[Ground Zero ROMS Development] sebx_g1:
He he - so it is tip rather for enable dirty flashing again not only constant reboot to recovery ,so that is definitly specific to Oreo 8.1 because before that builds it wasn't happend ,in worst case there was acore proces constant errors .... I flash ,a lot so for me it is massive advance .

Maybe it is an error in twrp because restoring should work without such problem - i'll check it later - rights for that file on working rom and also after restoring ...

Can you talk with any forum admin to merge validus threads or left one of them it is confusing to use both ?
[Ground Zero ROMS Development] josip-k:
Well, the other one is not official so i'm suggesting everyone to use this thread.

I really like the last update but I have some trouble:

- camera lags sometimes extremely (about 20-30sec) oder doesn't even start

- I do not have notification sounds and vibration SOLVED --> I set the toggle for "smart notification sound" to 30 seconds and that resulted in no sound for third party apps like WhatsApp or telegram...

- moto gestures are lagging, too. About 3-10 sec

The rest is awesome as usual. Can I make logcats for those problems so it's useful for devs?
[Ground Zero ROMS Development] josip-k:
Camera lag is known, but Alberto fixed it and the update will come. Notification sounds is not really a bug, since it's caused by smart notification feature. But gestures lag is weird, mine works just perfectly, wich build do you have? March 10 or march 12? Because on march 10 it lagged, on march 12 it was fixed with using non upstreamed kernel.

Thank you for replying. I did a clean install with version from 03-12 (Validus-addison-8.1.0.Stable.1.8-OFFICIAL-20180312-1315)

Crappy? If stock themes are crappy for you, use substratum and theme away. We have it fully supported by the way. And you can't call something "crappy" because it doesn't suit your needs. Someone put alot of work into it. You can find it even on xda portal.
