[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ReyTheBoss:
I don't know about you guys , but i'm disappointed by the OP5 ... and regretting the fact that i waited nearly a full year for it , now i need another phone , and i think most of you do as well , it's the main reason people didn't wanna return their phones , because there are no alternatives that has :

-Stock or Stock-ish android experience ( or dev community support for custom roms and all .. )

-overall great camera ( specially dual lenses , you can do great things with a dual shooter )

-high end specs ( SD835 , at least 6GB of RAM for heavy multitasking and installing a LOT of apps , bluetooth 5 , UFS 2,1 ... it is actually faster and has a significant impact on performance etc etc ... )

-Unlocked and multiband support ( i live in algeria ... u probably never heard of it , so no verison or AT&T ... )

i don't care about a 4K display , i was very please with that FHD amoled one

i don't care about bezels ... in fact i love them , they give more grip more protection and more natural look n feel

i don't care about SD card slots , i prefer putting all my data in one partition

i don't care about iris scanners or squeeze features ... BULL**** to me

i don't care about VR ... it's useless in out era IMO

i don't care about price , as long as it is not like 1000 dollars

i don't give that much importance to water resistance ... even though it will be appreciated

i don't give that much importance to design ... i want my phone to be beautiful but i don't care that it looks like another phone

i can't live without a phone that i can't root and fully customize and flash mods on and tune my audio and everything ... i never owned a flagship , all my life been running off of chineese phones with 1GB of ram and a MTK Soc but trust me i went far with em ... now i need a good phone .

by the things i said the OP5 will be perfect , but just too much flaws man ..

i am sure a lot of people are like me so please help

:good:

Hmm You can take a look at Motorola or xaomi are pretty close to Google stock. May i ask what flaws you have with the op5? I owned It a week now and battery / performance is awsome.

Lackluster cameras and a jelly screen.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ReyTheBoss:
Since the moment i heard about it i knew it was gonna be the PERFECT phone for me ... but the jello effect and the camera are kinda putting me dowwnn , like really
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ReyTheBoss:
Yes that is exactly what's holding me back from it
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] roba93:
Hmm thats to bad. Personaly i dont see the jelly effect, could be my eyes or my phone does not have it haha. Camera is fine for my needs. But Will improve alot with software updates.

I think for the same experience with better camera and no jelly it would be the Google pixel. But Its an expensive choice :(

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] QAM:
Hola

I think that I can empathize with your sentiments on this device. I also refuse to utilise any new phone that does not provide me with an unlocked bootloader and sources for their kernel or firmware, which in turn hopefully gives way to a vibrant development community.

You can consider:

1. Devices from OPPO. They do provide some decent specs for their higher tiered devices, and I understand, like OnePlus, they have a decent active development community.

2. ZTE Axon 7. Yes, last year's specifications but man those dual firing front speakers are awesome as is the screen and phone build. Development is there though only a few active developers are around. I honestly believe it was the best phone of last year for the specs it had with ability to at least get LOS and RR official support! I was using the Axon 7 before I switched to the OnePlus 5.

3. Crazy as it sounds, but the OnePlus 3T might be a decent alternative. Getting one used might be your best bet.

4. You may have to wait for the Pixel 2 series later in November / December if you want decent specs, good camera, and an proper development support.

While indeed hardware specs are super important, I have come to realise after using a number of flagship devices from Samsung and others that if the hardware doesn't have the open community behind it, IMHO the phone is a flop! Samsung Galaxy S series does have the ability to unlock the bootloader in certain regions, the hardware specs are usually top notch, but man I hate TouchWiz and the inability to utilize LOS or RR custom ROMs. Xiaomi phones are decently priced and certain phones get good community development like the Global version of the Redmi Note 4 but the hardware specs are many time mediocre. I would get a Global Redmi Note 4 as a secondary phone just in case my main phone got damaged or lost.

I am reading each and every post here on the OnePlus 5, seeing all the known issues, and the accompanying hate, but those listed issues won't be enough for me to switch yet. I am patiently waiting on our great developers to start providing some kickass custom ROMs.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ReyTheBoss:
Not only it is expensive , but with an old chipset and less ram and the ugliest desing ever and back fingerprint sensor ... nah man

plus even if i wait for the pixel 2 ... that's gonna be like napalm for my wallet ! nah ...

if it was that easy i wouldn't have created this thread

thank you soo much for your help my friend :cowboy:
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Rebel7022:
I think mine is dope
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ReyTheBoss:
First off , in 6 months of browsing in XDA , this is the best reply i have ever recieved :victory:

i am exactly like you , i could never agree more ... but i really don't like the other choices ... hear me out

1-the latest device of oppo is the OPPO R11 plus ... which is like the ****ing deformated twin brother of the OP5 : same design look but the OP5 looks better and feels more premium ...and lower specs ( snapdragon 660 ? srsly ? )

and i've never been a fan of oppo phones and their UI that craves to be IOS like ... so i can't really go with that .

2-ZTE axon 7 is a really great phone , but last year's great phone , i wanna buy a phone that i won't swap for like 2 years , and this one is already pretty old , and i honestly can't let go of the SD835 andreno 540 , 8gigs of ram , DUAL cam , bluetooth 5 , gorilla glass 5 , front mounted fingerprint scanner etc ... i don't give much importance to the front firing speaker because i don't use it that much ... but the audio quality over the jack is verryyyyy important to me , as i said i never go with a phone without a sound mod applied , but the ZTE axon 7 just seems lacking a lot of the features here so it ain't attrackting me

3-will never consider the 3T because the 5 has everything the 3T has in a better way ... straight up

4-pixel 2 is actually my only choice except the OP5 ... but the price is gonna be radioactive , and the wait till nov/dec is really not pleasing , as i said i am running over multiple chineese phones that are loow ****ing end ... can't take it anymore i need something good

now honestly i haate the Samsung eco system ... and i hate the bother of looking for universal versions just for convinience , plus i don't trust the exynos ones i'd rather take a Snapdragon , but those are the ones that u can't do anything to ... what a shame

i am also reading all the threads about the OP5 ... and the only thing that really gets to me is the camera , i have a dslr ... but i really wanna experience one of the best phone cameras , because u can pretty much guess based on the phones i use that their camera is more than trash ... i never actually use them ... so if they fix the camera next month i will probably pick one ... if not , maybe i'll wait for the pixel 2 ...

thank you very much for your help ! :highfive:
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ReyTheBoss:
how is your experience with the camera ?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] auntyvirus:
Newsflash! No matter what phone you choose (or wait for) there's likely going to be some aspect(s) that you don't like. There's also going to be some aspect(s) that delight you.

The design of every phone is a set of compromises. That reality also means that some people will be disappointed with some of those compromise decisions.

The only advice I can offer is to find something whose compromises you can live with. For me that happens to be the OP5--despite some of the compromises they made.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Rebel7022:
I like flashing roms and dash, I'm not into taking pics, so I don't care about the camera. I do like the camera though it's pretty good, I'm sure a dev will hook the camera up & improve it
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ReyTheBoss:
a bit agressive here but you are right ... it is just that the camera of the OP5 was supposed to be THE "feauture" , the whole marketing point , not the biggest flaw of the device ... and it's almost a deal breaker ...

plus this thread is for all people not just for me , i am positive that a lot of people are in the same spot as me

and i know how it'll go , either i accept the OP5 or patience and time will show :good:
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ReyTheBoss:
cool my friend thank you for the reply ... i can't wait to please my flash addiction one i get my hand on it then :D
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] auntyvirus:
It wasn't my intention to be aggressive or put anyone down. Rather it was to set expectations. You've asked a very good question. It's just that I doubt there's a good answer.

I've been looking for a replacement for my Nexus 5 for many months now. I finally decided to go with the OP5. Despite some minor quibbles, I'm keeping mine.

Yes, many people are in the same or similar situation as you. But if there was some other phone that had all of the positive features of the OP5, also addressed the negative ones, and cost no more than the OP5, I'm sure it would have been mentioned here. That it hasn't suggests either that (1) such a phone doesn't exist or that (2) everyone has their own individual set of criteria so no consensus can be reached.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Ale08:
I feel your point, 95% I agree with your analisys.

Moreover I need a dual SIM phone, and unlocked: my job obligates me to travel around the world, and I need to put a "local SIM" in order to get everywhere an internet connection, with acceptable costs.

If not OP5................. I could get:

Xiaomi, Galaxy S8 duos , Lenovo(Motorola), some Honor/Huawei.

I am based in Europe, Italy, that means:

not all Xiaomi support Italian 4G-LTE band, it sucks

Galaxy S8 duos in Italy is an import product... with delay in delivery and possible problem with warranty

Lenovo Honor and Huawei could be OK, but personally I feel not at the same level of OP5, in specs-performance.

At the end... when I will have the OP5 in my hand (in 2 weeks) I hope it totally satisfy myself, because ATM I have NO other options.

Crossed fingers
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] ReyTheBoss:
so again it goes back to the OnePlus 5 ... and all the criticism aside , it's a ****ing great phone , i might just stop *****ing about it and start seeing the good side of it XD that implies for everybody else :highfive:
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] EVR_PR:
Even though you don't care about any of the features that are distinguishing many of 2017's flagships, there are some that have those features and can still fit your criteria:

1. HTC U11. It is bootloader unlockable from the factory, so you can play with it to your hearts content.

2. Sony Xperia XZ Premium. Recently was added to their developer program, which will allow you to mod it, as well.

3. LG G6 US997. If in the US, this specific model has been added to the unlockable models list and LG tends to have a healthy following (even with the dreaded bootloop issue).

4. OnePlus 3T. As good as the OnePlus 5 in many ways and better in many others (no jelly like scrolling, massive custom development scene).

5. Google Pixel. No explanations necessary.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Hastaloego:
www.kimovil.com is a pretty good page to compare and or find a phone that match your demands.

im more concerned about custom rom and developer community.
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] QAM:
Hola

I am not a developer, but like those with a little time and technical know how, I can compile my own ROM from sources. This was extremely popular when I had the OnePlus 1 device and CM was still around.

The question is what does it take to create custom ROMs? ...especially given that OnePlus has traditionally been developer friendly with releasing not only kernel but firmware sources rather quickly compared to other OEMs. I understand that the OnePlus 3 / 3T sub-forum on XDA even outrival's the Pixel devices from Google. Maybe my inquiry is best suited in the general Android sub-forum on XDA.

That aside, I am surprised we haven't heard much from some developers who run and maintain well known custom ROMs such as LOS, RR, Mokee, DU, AICP, AOSP, etc. regarding support for this OnePlus 5. Am I missing something or it rather just a matter of time :confused:

Lastly, and more importantly, my greatest appreciation to all developers, cooks, maintainers, and others who help keep the community alive and well. Without these folks we would just be regular consumers being forced to use what crappy software we are provided with. Thanks to you :highfive:

Leagoo T10 can lock it back for bootloader ?

Hi All,

Check my simple unboxing here = https://youtu.be/nHHOJE8KU3M

Seem you guys have method can unlock bootloader & is it anyway can unroot & locked back bootloader to get New OTA if available ? May Be nougat...?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Black_p3:
I heard some rumors that the T10 was badly selling and that there will be no OS updates because of that... I hope it's not true but there were some signs of that, for example the T10 was not mentioned on the official Leagoo website for a long time after it came out and was added only recently...

That was the reason I didn't bother trying to root through MAGISK which would allow updates...

As I said I hope it's not true because it's a really good phone for a great price... (And it's the only one in this price/performance category with SD card support)

Oh... Really ? Sorry & i did not notice... My SD card is class 10 card but failed format as internal so Is it Your phone SD card can format as internal ? What type of SD card is working ?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Black_p3:
Be careful with the SD card... I had my 128 GB class 10 U1 formated as internal with my T10 (it was working fine), then I wanted to format it as regular SD and something went wrong by that process... The card is absolutely unusable now (I tried many solutions I found on the web but none worked...). Now I have an 64 class 10 inserted and using it without the internal format and the 32 GB internal storage is enough for me now...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolkillermax:
oh that's good info & did u put your 128gb sd card to other phone to format it ? hope this help u...

My issue is different- my 32GB class 10 sd during format as internal just until 20% than will show " could not erase sd card" so just can format as normal external storage…

can i know your128gb U1 sd card is it same as UHS card ?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Black_p3:
I tried almost everything possible with that SD card. Formating in other devices said that the card is write protected... I inserted it to my notebook and tried to remove the write protection by many means like through regedit, low level formating and so on but nothing helped... Finally I gave up... I don't know exactly how the issue happen but I remember that after formating the card, the phone was still listing the card as internal and I gave the command to forget it while it was inserted in my T10 and I believe that could be the reason that created that mess... (So don't do that, the forget function I mean)

Both cards I used were SDXC so maybe your 32 SDHC isn't compatible to be formated as internal memory but you should try to erase the card first if it gives you that error...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Black_p3:
By the way... Have you used MAGISK yet? Did it work? As I said I used normal root (installed supurSu zip from booted recovery) so I won't try that now...

Has it arrived yet and did the rooting work?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Black_p3:
U1 is the UHS class (10MB/s minimum write speed).... (There is also U3 class which is 30/s)

By the way... Have you used MAGISK yet? Did it work? As I said I used normal root (installed supurSu zip from booted recovery) so I won't try that now...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Black_p3:
And actually that was the same error I got when I destroyed my card... I hope that it's not the same situation... :)

Hi. Yes I have received it and I am very glad with it. Not perfect as the quality of the sound is not very fine. The notification LED is too discreet too. But It is totally stable, and given the price I paid for it I do no regret.
