I still have the OEM screen protector that came on my OnePlus 2 and I don't use any kind of case... there are a FEW tiny scratches on it but it's still pretty much as good as the day I got the phone. I don't see any reason why the one on the 5 will be any less awesome :cool:

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] 0r32:
So there's no need to get the official screen protector? https://oneplus.net/oneplus-5-3d-tempered-glass-screen-protector

Or is this one better than the pre-installed protector?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] 0xTJ:
The included one is just a standard plastic protector. The one you linked to is a tempered glass screen protector. While it is thicker, and susceptible to cracking, the one I used on my OPO was delightful to the touch.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ddurandd:
Is it recommended to remove the factory screen protector before applying the official tempered glass protector? Or can you simply apply it on top of the factory protector.

[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] mutantlog:
I'm moving to a SM-A520W (Canada) from a Moto X Play and I was wondering if it's possibly to modify build.prop without having to actually flash TWRP and trip the Knox counter. On the Moto X Play I can do a "fastboot boot <twrp image>" and it will load TWRP into RAM but not flash it, at which point I can mount /system and use adb to pull/push the build.prop file.

Being new to Samsung's boot loader, is it possible to launch TWRP in RAM using Odin/Heimdall/something else so that I can access /system but otherwise avoid tripping the Knox counter? I want to change fw.max_users, but otherwise I don't want to root my device.

SAMSUNG BOOTLOADER does not support fastboot mode
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] cealaska:
Sorry to bring up an old thread. But would it be possible to root a phone of the same model (not the Canadian or US versions) and repack the system partition. With an updated build.prop without any other modifications. Without tripping KNOX or DM-Verity? Would we have to have MD5s instead of tars while flashing stock firmware? A repacked MD5 with the AP's lz4s would be awesome if possible.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Emu15:
Touchscreen latency issues seemed to be buried with OP2 completely and OP3 at the beginning. There was one great article regarding OP3 xda-developer article and there was promises for better performance with OPV. If you haven't felt and appreciated the buttery smoothness of a Nexus, a Pixel or a iPhone OPV shouldn't be a problem but faster the better, right? So I don't want a phone with latency like OP2 or 3 did. I hope touch latency isn't a problem with OP5 and if it is I hope the problem doesn't get buried like it did with previous OPes.

Post experiences (and what you have compared it to)!
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] 3DSammy:
At least in the initial plethora of reviews all of them said the OP5 had a buttery smooth UI and when some compared it to the S8 said it was smoother. I'm not talking about the contentious bench mark tests either. These reviewers had the OP5 for two weeks before the release having signed a non-disclosure agreement.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Nitemare3219:
Did you not watch the launch stream? There was a segment where they CLEARLY focused on fixing this issue.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] amathur2k:
This is a big problem, none of the reviewers seems to have focussed on. There is this french review which pegs the lags at 88 ms which IMHO is too high.

http://www.lesnumeriques.com/telephone-portable/oneplus-5-128-go-8-go-ram-p38963/test.html
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Emu15:
Haven't had time. Should probably have but segment on launch stream isn't good enough for me because we all should know they aren't exactly 100% trustworthy.

Maybe I'm expecting a bit too much and a bit "ruined" because I use mainly my pc that has a 144hz monitor and a good mouse so it has as fast as available response time and I'm comparing phones a bit to that.

I think user amathur2k posted something worth noting. If OP5 truly has 88ms and iPhone 41ms so that's double difference and I'm sure it's meaningful. It's the difference of good and excellent. But now that I've looked up some articles (can't link them - forum's new user restrictions) maybe all devices are worse than I've expected and I'm expecting just too much from my phone.

So OK OnePlus 5 is fine but I want to see something like 10ms (I know i'ts not realistic currently)
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Emu15:
Sounds good based on reviews and especially if they say that in comparison to s8 but s8 isn't directly comparable because touchwiz has some "interesting" UI desicions and one of them is ensuring that touches are registered correctly so that escpecially wipes are ensured. I think galaxy does that by doing what for many is excessive smoothing but maybe better for a mainstream product like galaxy. So I think OnePlus is a bit more raw with it's input handling.

What worries me is that exactly the same was said about OnePlus 2 in reviews and especially now that reviewers have written a agreement ( I don't know if it's normal ) there may have been some pressure to say that it's smooth and as they propably haven't directly pressured the hypetrain definitely has.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] irakli987:
My s7 edge (sm-g935fd) back button stopped working. Recent button works fine. When i press it Back also lights up, but doesn't work at all. I tried *#2663# trick and re-flashed nougat with odin with no luck at all. What do you guys suggest to do??

P.S. screen is cracked but the crack is on the opposite side of the button. So i don't think it's the issue..
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] geraldalcos:
Maybe you can flash ROM with navigation bar, like S8 ports or Superman Roms. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] irakli987:
Yep, going to. I'll take it to repair shop tomorrow. Let's see what they will say and if they don't repair, then yes, I'll flash one of them..
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] EasyAndroidPro:
if you are not currently rooted there are apps on the playstore that enable a nav bar for you

if you are rooted then all you need to do is edit your build.prop and add the line

qemu.hw.mainkeys=0

and then reboot your phone

the nav bar is already present no need to flash custom roms
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] irakli987:
thanks for the reply. took to the repair shop today. they said, i have to fix the screen first and its around $300, so it's not worth it. gonna root now and then flash one of the s8 ports. can you recommend which is the best one?

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] 4 Door Skyline:
I need a phone to replace my aging and failing Note 4.

The question is: get this OP5 6/64 or S7 edge exynos (935f). Both are apparently rootable and bootloader unlockable from what I can tell. I understand it's exynos vs sd835 and 2k screen vs 1080 but I find the s7 more refined (and waterproof, I'm from Florida and I'm constantly on the water)

Talk me in or out of either.

Thanks.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] silverkin:
Compared photos on gsmarena, S7 has better camera.

I think battery should be comparable, 400 mAh less, but SD835 is better at battery savings :p.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] DylanTheVillian:
I bought this and I am selling my US S7Edge, personally the specs are much better on this phone and I hate the curved screen of the S7Edge it's completely worthless....
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] 4 Door Skyline:
Both are priced similarly, that's where I'm stuck.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] malek777:
This one is actually an easy choice. I would say go with the oneplus 5. If it was the s8 it would be a much more difficult choice.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] white43:
Here's a few reasons to go with the OP5.

Unlocking the bootloader and rooting the device does not void your warranty. It does with the s7.

Snapdragon 835 will outperform that Exynos processor in this case.

Oxygen OS constantly updated

Dual sim

S7 reasons

If you need VR, the S7 has a 2K screen.

S7 is IP68.

Photos are likely to be great on both.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] 4 Door Skyline:
I ended up pulling the trigger on a new s8+ for $470. If worse comes to worse I can sell it for at least that much.

Its a really good phone and for that price, its a steal.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] cultofluna:
S8+ for $470??....very cheap....
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] white43:
Exactly what I was thinking!!!
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] 4 Door Skyline:
Yea, the unidays discount with a .edu email, plus $200 off with any phone to trade in (I have an old burner phone). Check on SD. I couldn't say no to that price. I find the s8 more refined and the devs here are inches away from unlocking bootloader and achieving root. A no brainier in my book.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] nort33:
What part number did you get? Just wondering if you can unlock the bootloader. Or root. I would use an S4 over and s8 if I had to go without root.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] dlads:
At this moment in time it's between the HTC 11 and the one plus 5. Nothing else comes close.

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] dlads:
Not for me mate, 11 or 1+ each to their own though.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] MrWilsonxD:
At 470 for an s8 plus, I think it's a fantastic deal. Even though I'm a Japanese Honda Toyota fan, if you walked away with a 2017 new camaro fully loaded new for 15-17 grand, I'm going to be pretty happy for you. Despite the fact I wanted you in a Camry or Accord lol.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] stmasi:
Every time I start my TYTN II, I get a popup as follows:

===============================

Network Wizard

-------------------------------------------------------

Your current operator (31026) is not

supported. You should obtain an update from

your device vendor.

Would you like to select another network

provider?

-------------------------------------------------------

....YES.........................................MENU

===============================

I can, of course, simply ignore it and the phone appears to work just fine. However, if I choose "Yes," then I'm presented with a list of countries and providers to choose from...and there is no US, USA, North America, etc. in the list.

Now, I'm assuming this is some sort of software helper that automatically configures the network, internet, wap, mms, etc. in an effort to make things easier for the end user. So, in theory, if I've already entered all that information in the phone, then I shouldn't need this software, right?

Thanx.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ach2:
I used to get that with the Dopod WM5 roms when I was using a UK O2 sim card - the Dopod was only configured for Asian markets. I guess you are using a rom from an area which doesn't support your sim card. Maybe try to dearch for the network configuration tool which supports your sim / carrier.

Yes. I purchased the phone in Hong Kong.

So, how do I eliminate this irritation?

[Samsung Galaxy J5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Batero2000:
Hi guys, just make this thread for share the experience of

Dual Boot Patcher

(https://dbp.noobdev.io/) for our devices.

For those who dont know what is Dual Boot Patcher, "is an open-source app that allows multiple ROMs to be installed on a single Android device. It does blabla... There are currently 210 supported devices and their variations" where is the

Galaxy J5 2015

with

all variants (3g & 4g) supported

, & even with Boot UI.

What I've learned & knowing of this, is that is different of MultiROM or other options, because is not a Boot Manager, I think that is a Software that changes the location OS where the kernel will load it, if you not have the Dual Boot Patcher app on each ROM, you will not be able to switch it.

You will able to flash a secondary ROM only if you patched before with the app patcher or Win/Linux patcher (for gapps, or other zips). Not to mention of having root & TWRP.

I'm about to test this with my phone with the Stock (root & TWRP :cool:) 6.0 firm, but I don't have got very clear if this works with this firm or with 5.0, or viceversa. Does somebody know?

Good luck multibooting.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Guides, News, & Discussion] American_Jesus:
I've just tested, and worked even better than MultiROM.

Maybe latter i'll do a "How to" guide to how to use it, probably works with LL/MM and Stock ROMs.

[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] qvnsq:
Hello!

Here is a few init.d scripts that have download around google and over xda, im not take any credit at all, all the script should go to their own respective owner/creator.

Im not a fan of app tweaking, such as lspeed/hebf.

I've try some other init.d script, but most of em unstable, bootloop,..

Whats inside:

-Seeder script: increase over 3+ entropy

-Fstrim: trim system every boot ( work ). Script run monthly ( not enough time to test yet )

-Sdcard script : set to 2048 ( work )

-Flyengine by Slaid480

Remove some unstable script ( boot loop )

Inside flyengine:

Network tweak ( work )

Build.Prop tweak ( dont know if it actually do anything )

Vm tweak ( same as build.Prop tweak )

these scripts might consume more battery.

Once again all credit to their owner. I just sharing.

* backup system before install *

* i will not responsible for any damage to your device, use your own risk *

[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] adriansticoid:
Sorry but I would say using apps like L Speed/HEBF is better. You can choose which tweaks to activate and change them on the fly. With init.d, you have to reboot to see the changes. Another thing, FlyOnMod by Slaid480 is discontinued. Which means the tweaks inside might not work nicely with Nougat, fstrim shouldn't be done every boot. Trimming should only be done maybe, twice a month.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] qvnsq:
I think you missed my point here.

1: im not fan of these app because i dont like it running in my background ( minimum as much as background process i could ) ( i do like lspeed init.D script, till dev change to an app ) also i do have the paid app named : Boosters Plus batterysaver i think that better then these. ( from my point of view )

2: youre right, init.d script need to set on rebooted, once reboot everything is set, until you rebooting again.

3: discontinued but those setting are working, direct change to the code ( i checked ) also i believe most of the tweaking app for better internet tweaking are the same, keep connection alive(kill more battery) tcp,ect, ( correct me if im wrong ) just different in number setting perfer by developer ( samething that touched the tcp and change tcp algorithms ). Also as mentioned i have removed some of em that not working on (honor 8)( bootloop ) i posted this just for honor 8.

I have search around honor 8 thread but noone mention about init.D script here.

4: fstrim set on reboot, also it included trim every month that you mentioned above ( if you keep the device on for a long period time before power went out, 1 month for example, i think this help here.

- init.D script is something just flash and go ( im lazy ), no need to open an app for setting. And avoided app's battery consuming.

- im not trying to be anything here on XDA, just shared for ( honor8 )

Thank you for your time input.
[Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] adriansticoid:
Just one more pointn [MENTION=5006049]qvnsq[/MENTION], init.d scripts also consume memory in the background. :) It's just that an app like L Speed consumes maybe 5-10MB of more RAM. Thank you, too for sharing the sripts here. :highfive:

That executes faster ,init.d scripts gets executed soon after boot . But the scripts in bin will be executed while the device bootup

[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krajc:
Hello,

If I ask stupid questions, please, be patient with me, I just want to make sure I don't mess up things.

A long time ago I rooted my phone using https://xdaforums.com/z3-compact/general/how-to-root-backup-drm-keys-t3013343, but at that time I didn't want to flash lolipop - I have been staying with 4.4.4 until now.

Now I would like to upgrade to let's say Marshmallow, stock version, and keep root. I have a very old TWRP recovery installed on the phone. I remember the original rooting process was rather complicated, but now it seems to me, that it should be much simpler, I guess this is what I should do:

On PC:

1. Install original z3c drivers

2. Install latest flashtool

3. Use flashtool to install latest TWRP recovery, like from here: https://xdaforums.com/z3-compact/general/d5803-z3c-aries-twrp3-0-t3543113

4. Download pre-rooted Marshmallow image, however, I am not sure if these https://xdaforums.com/z3-compact/general/list-stock-firmwares-d5803-d5833-t2906706 are pre-rooted

5. Put the image on the sd card and install it directly from the TWRP recovery

Am I right?

[ZTE Nubia Z17  Questions & Answers] dorkozoid:
Haha yeah, I don't think there'll be much ROM support for the Nubia Z17, but already a few weeks or so after release they've pushed out a new OTA update, as well as updates for other phones. Hopefully they'll be well supported with Android O :/

I live in the UK so will have to import this model anyway, and found a great deal on:

http://www.geekbuying.com/item/ZTE-Nubia-Z17-5-5-Inch-6GB-64GB-Smartphone---Black-380167.html

I used the Honey extension on Chrome and that saved me £20! It doesn't tell me what the code is unfortunately, so can't post it here for any that are interested.

I checked the bands/frequencies and it covers the UK ones I require, and it's a 'worldwide' model. It just seems a bit strange to me that even on the Nubia/ZTE site it's not on there. But I'm gonna go for it...
