[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] 5.1:
Hello,

I also had an N6P before the XL. I must say it took me some time to get used to the smaller screen, but after a few days, it's ok. I would like a N6P or N6P like Pixel XL 2 though... :P Camera is awesome. Screen colors could have been better. You can correct it a bit with a custom kernel and a kernel manager app though. I don't listen to music with my phone, but with the arrival of Android O and the new codecs, I guess I'm going to buy some good earbuds soon.

About battery life? I used to get decent battery with the N6P. Note that i am on wifi 90% of the time. I don't use social network apps. Mostly web browsing, SMS/MMS, photos and some YouTube. Check the attached screenshot. Since last charge, I only used my phone for web browsing on wifi. But with mixed usage, lot of apps syncing and 4G/LTE I guess it would be much less.

Phone stays cool where N6P used to get warm... Not using my phone for intensive tasks either but I can feel the difference. I don't play games, so I have never really experienced throttling with N6P either. Just the phone getting hotter than any other phones I already owned...

Hope that helps... :)

Cheers...

Love the software the only phone I've bought that never lagged or stuttered on me EAS is amazing but price is a bit questionable other than the camera not really getting much for the price would of loved better audio one thing the Pixel is terrible at other than that it's a good phone
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] znel52:
Thanks man!
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] ithehappy:
Best camera, so awesome that even after selling the phone it keeps haunting me or something.

Best software experience. Phone is not as fast as a OP3T or something but I care about consistent performance and smoothness over burst performance.

Incredible call quality.

Very good battery life too.

The only reason I sold the phone was because of the touch screen issue I had on mine and then two other Pixels I tried too. Probably a hardware issue, or software calibration of the display, whatever it is it was annoying enough for me to not be able to use the phone, especially when I play games which require continuous touching.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Gilley:
Came from Nexus 6P (with a stop with iPhone 7+ until I got my Pixel XL) and to me its just an upgraded 6P, I loved my 6P only reason I got rid of it is I am on Verizon and they dont support WiFi calling with it and I built a new house with 9' basement and got no service whatsoever down there. Only thing I would change on the Pixel is cosmetic. Thing isnt the best looking phone but I'll take performance/stable/smooth and solid over how it looks any day. Tried the LG G6 and S8+ briefly and came right back to Pixel because it is still better IMO.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] StrizzMatik:
Coming from the 6P and OP3, it's a huge upgrade from the 6P in battery life, build quality, camera and performance, and a moderate upgrade from the OP3. Touch lag is pretty much nonexistent or barely perceptible, software is the best Google has ever released. You'll probably love it.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] untouchablez:
I'm in the same boat currently. Moved into a new house & my Verizon coverage is spotty. Just found out the 6P can't do wifi calling on Verizon so I need another device. Did you buy your XL from Verizon or from the Google store? Trying to see if the unlocked version from Google will do wifi calling on Verizon
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Gilley:
Yea the Google version will do everything the Verizon version does and has unlocked bootloader if you ever plan on switching out ROMs etc. I have the Verizon version and wished I had the Google version if that helps.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] awakenedwithin:
I'm enjoying it a lot.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] untouchablez:
Yes Im definitely trying to avoid the Verizon version due to the locked bootloader. Love my 6p but I need wifi calling and the pixel is really the only option sadly.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] neverstopdroiding:
Performance is amazing, no lag, scrolling smoothness is great, apps load quick. My only real criticism is the small SBR. But hey, I knew that before I bought it.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] thdaddy34:
My iPhone is my daily driver. I am too invested in its software to Let It Go especially for work purposes. Whenever a new Samsung Galaxy phone comes out I always purchase it to test it out and it never lasts more than 2 weeks before I return it because I just hate the software and the lagginess. I have been eyeing the pixel XL for quite some time but I always got discouraged to purchase it given that it was consistently unavailable, and had long shipping wait times. Anyhow, I recently lucked out and was in the situation where I was able to purchase the pixel XL and took the plunge. All I can say is that the pixel XL is the smoothest Android phone I've ever used. This is really a step that Samsung needs to take if it intends to take away any of Apple's business. I personally care for good Hardware but put a premium on a phone's software. That is why I tend to always use the iPhone as my daily driver. But to be honest I've been using the pixel a lot more than my iPhone. I'm loving this phone. If you took this software and put it on the new Galaxy S8, the Galaxy S8 would probably be the phone of the year in my opinion. In the time I have been using the pixel, the phone has not lagged one time. I even overloaded the phone with applications and the phone still performs smoothly.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Gilley:
Yea I had an iPhone 7+ between my 6P and Pixel XL and like you said its so smooth and never lags, I use to be a big **** talker to my friends who used apple and after using it I get why people like it, just wasnt for me. I hated looking at 5000 icons and folders etc. If they ever got an app drawer it would be a different story but until then the OCD in me needs android and Pixel is the smoothest one out there. I too try each phone and I last maybe a week or so before I'm back to my Pixel because the new ones just cant keep up and arent worth $600-800 for how it looks.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] new_world_2006:
Today I have a fight with my self about replacing my XL with S8+ , I was afraid of missing the software flexibility and customization and missing the smoothness and lag free software , so I decided to stay with the XL.

S8+ Have a nice screen , but actually using black profile on the kernel editor give me some sense of S8 screen colors .

Any way I couldn't replace the smoothness in XL with the screen colors in S8.

How did you get over 350? I'm on att gigapower and cannot get over 350mbps on WiFi
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discussion] TheBrandonWRX:
I have the supporting equipment. I am on Google Fiber, it never pulls less than 998 up and down on LAN. I run a ASUS router with Merlin firmware as an AP only. 2.4ghz TX is low and 5ghz is strong. On my Ubiquiti AP (pros) I run similar strength (my security camera and Harmony Hubs are 2.4ghz or I'd just lose the 2.4 channel all together) however I set 5ghz channel to priority for easier roaming and of course set the drop off at 70 or 75db so as I move I'm not holding on to the wrong AP. Basically those speeds are what I get on every floor in every room in my house.

The last tab on the HTC's home plugin is where you set up the sound (normal, silent, vibrate or automatic). Can someone tell me how the automatic setting works? Looking at the icon it seems like its similar to timed profile. Where are the settings corresponding to that?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] chaugi:
Manual page 37: It uses same settings as in Normal mode, but vibrates on scheduled events ;)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] M^ck^y:
Automatic?

I wonder which part of this is automatic?:confused:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] WizRd:
Once you select this profile your phone will ring and make noise when you have a new appointment ect, however during "busy" times as set in your appointments the phone will act as if it is on vibrate only.

Great feature, however once you have selected it once, it is basically always on.

Free time = Normal sounds

Busy Time = Silent with vibrate.

Hope this clarifies it for you.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] GSLEON3:
Hmmm.... Mine works correctly & I am able to toggle it on & off & it only defaults to the manner mode if I have it selected.

Sounds like you shoul try another version. I use Xplodes version, however I have incorporated the fixed weather & brightness .dll.

Bang and olufsen do decent headphones, audiotechnica are my personal favourites, not sure if Jarre do some but they're a great brand..

As for headsets, so long as you have a Bluetooth pad, any of the Google cardboard ones will do just fine..Just not the ones made out of cardboard.

Thanks. Can you confirm model no of earphones and VR headsets. Any earphones better than bundled HTC 10 hi res earphone. Good part is most of the HTC 10 users has gone through experimental trial and error period. So you guys must be knowing the best possible option. I bought HTC 10 bit late.

Hi everybody,

coming from this thread I wonder how to identify correct ROM version to flash onto my mobile. Everything I recognizued can be found in mentioned thread.

Excerpt from MTK Droid Tools here:

Hardware : MT6582 (MT6589 is Fake!)

Model : lPHONE

Build number : user_A8232;3G;FOREIGH;32P4

Build date UTC : 20161026-032457

Android v : 4.2.2

Baseband v: MOLY.WR8.W1315.MD.WG.MP.V23, 2014/05/22 10:58

Kernel v : 3.4.5 (songgaosheng@server0) (gcc version 4.6.x-google 20120106 (prerelease) (GCC) ) #1 SMP Wed Oct 26 11:23:05 CST 2016

How can I used this information to identify and download the correct ROM?

Phone has 2 recoveries: The chinese one and another one which I cannot identify.

Want to flash a more stable and usable ROM onto phone but all my investigation so far (here, on Google, youtube other fora etc.) were not yet successful.

Any help hence is highly appreciated.

Thank you in advance!

Bye
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
It is recommended that you only flash ROMs built for your specific model number.

Other devices and ROMs are similar but aren't exactly the same. Unless you find something that says "this" or "that" ROM will work on your specific device there is no way to know for sure if any ROM will work for you or not.

You'll have to do a lot of research comparing devices and all of their hardware to see what works, if there any hardware differences at all in any of their hardware components then you can't just flash the ROM, it would have to be ported to work with ALL of your hardware components.

[MTCD Android Head Units General] TECHADDICT5610:
You CAN get Rear RCA Pre-Outs working with a little wiring mod to the Audio/Video cable!

No need to add extra hardware to have Rear feed to factory, or aftermarket amps!

Recently bought a MTCD Android branded as a Pumpkin RQ0278 Android HU for my 1999 Infiniti Q45 with the Bose 4 channel Factory Amp. Well, the Audio/Video plug that came with it had only Front RCA Pre-Amp Outs. No Rear L, & R Pre-Outs! The Pumpkin support forum sucks, and google searches for other generic unit harnesses was fruitless for me.

So, I took a look at the Audio/Video plug and noticed that not all of the slots in the white plastic plug were populated with wires.

So, look at the plug from the side that the wires are going in. Notice the cavities where the Front Pre-Amp wires are going into the plug. Red wire is Right, and White is Left. The shielding braid is a common ground for both channels, and is tied together under the shrink wrap. Now notice the vacant cavities to the Left of the Front Pre-Amp wires,...These are REAR Pre-Amp connection points!

I just took the RCA cables for the Video Out 1, and 2 plugs (which I will not be using), out of the connector, and used them for the Rear Pre-Outs. Red lead next to Red, and White next to White. Jumpered the shielding over to the Front shielding, and insulated the connections.

Sorry no pictures for this post, but unit is back in car now, and it was a hassle to fit it back into the Infiniti dash, but I now have the factory Amp working on all four channels with functional balance and fader controls working in the radio software!

If you are technically inclined enough to be reading threads in this forum, then you can do this mod, and avoid having to buy extra hardware to get rear RCA Pre-Amp Outputs. Hope this helps someone with a rebranded generic unit that the selling company was too cheap to put the output cables in the plug.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] 0zzzy:
Mate I have the same problem and there are empty slots next to the front RCA outs. How do you add wires to those slots and do you need to configure them through android to act as rear RCA outs? Pictures would help a lot. Thanks in advance.

Hiya!

Unfortunately, HTC has decided to continue its past behaviour of trying to avoid benchmarking, and have gone into the Android Source to break all known methods of capturing FPS as of Android 7.0

[Wileyfox Swift 2 Questions & Answers] slowswift2:
Has anyone had this and fixed it, or do you know how? I have a Swift2Plus.

Since the Nougat update I have random disconnects from WiFI (gets turned off) Bluetooth (gets turned off) and phone (SIM taken out of service). It makes my phone pretty useless as it's a pain repairing all of these and I miss calls and messages. Also Bluetooth is always showing in settings as disconnected, even when it's turned on and working.

So far I've tried a network reset and deleting the system cache but nothing changes.
[Wileyfox Swift 2 Questions & Answers] badwolf69:
I'm also having Network issues, my Hotspot turns itself off at least 3 times in a row before staying on, and I get a lot of 3g connection indicators, my network hasn't changed and I'm in a strong 4g area . . eventually the phone settles on 4g . . I'll also point out the pointless duplication in the UI, previously the pulldown menu was a straightforward tap and select for Bluetooth etc . . now it takes you to a second screen where you can turn Bluetooth on/off . . total waste of time and poor interface design.
[Wileyfox Swift 2 Questions & Answers] rivierakid:
I've no problems with wifi and bluetooth, but there is an OTA update fixing these issues (see WileyFox facebook). So wait a few days for the update...
[Wileyfox Swift 2 Questions & Answers] slowswift2:
Wileyfox suggestion of clearing the system cache seems to have fixed the random disconnects, so you could try that. On my phone there didn't seem to be any issues created by doing that.

They did say in reply that the issue of Bluetooth being permanently shown in settings as disconnected (even though it's on and working fine) was a known problem they were working on.

That tallies with the helpful post below from rivierakid saying a Wileyfox fix was in the works.
[Wileyfox Swift 2 Questions & Answers] slowswift2:
BTW here are the instructions for clearing the system cache, courtesy of Amy at Wileyfox-

"If you are using a model previous to the Swift 2 series, please try the following.

"Wipe cache partition"

To do this, please turn off your Handset.

Press and hold down the Power and Volume down button together until a menu appears.

Select "Factory reset", "Wipe cache partition" and then "Yes".

this should not take long, now go back and select "Reboot system now".

Please monitor your handset over a few days to see if this has resolved your issue.

If you are using the Swift 2 series, please try the following.

"Wipe cache partition"

To do this, please turn off your Handset.

Press and hold down the Power and Volume up button together until a menu appears.

Press the volume down button until you see "Recovery mode", your Handset will restart and enter another menu Select "Factory reset", "Wipe cache partition" and then "Yes".

this should not take long, now go back and select "Reboot system now"."

I didn't understand the reference to factory reset and just used "Wipe cache partition", which seemed to do the job.

Good luck!

Samsung Galaxy S7 32GB SM-G930V (Marshmallow) audio & microphone problems (brand new)

Just bought this devise to replace my iPhone 5s.

Out of the box and in the first call I made they couldn’t hear me… I said ok… “it’s new I have to set it up” so I start looking around the settings. Sometime later it stopped doing it so I finished setting it up, putted my favorite apps, transferred all my photos and contacts from my iPhone (hopefully I created a total iTunes backup before resetting to factory defaults).

The problem is:

a)	When I make a call I can’t here (no sound at all from the other side) unless I put it on “speaker mode”. At the same time and with the speaker mode off when I press the “extra volume” button it popups "Unable to use extra volume range while earphones are connected"…WITHOUT having the earphones CONNECTED.

b)	To test it I used Samsung Voice Recorder. When I open the application, a popup at the bottom is saying: "External microphone will be used to record audio" …WITHOUT having the earphones connected again.

And when I press the record button another popup appears "Recording with external audio"…WITHOUT having the earphones connected again.

c)	when I connect the earphone jack I listen & record nicely

d)	Sometimes popups a “The location fd://24 cannot be played

It’s like always for some reason believes that the earphone jack is connected. Rarely works ok for some seconds but it stops pretty soon…

I made a video with the problems. Sorry for the camera angles… I’m not a pro…

www youtube com / channel / UCcGtXNpClAfUSXI0ZW6iAtg

Anybody knows if it’s a software problem/bug that can be fixed or it’s hardware?

I don’t know… pretty disappointing, it’s too expensive to have this problems. Feels like I left macOS for windows 98 and loosing precious time again to google & fix, problems and i'm too old for this…

thanks in advance
