[OnePlus 5 Accessories] AnabolicAndroidz:
Thanks for pointing out how this woks with the matt and the gloss finish of the colored FlexiCases. Matt is better fro grip I think, but the gloss around the rim makes it look really nice, so it's a good combination. (previously I had assumed that the whole thing was matt and that maybe there was an all gloss version, as I think amazon describes these all as matt, so had previously (falsely) assumed that it was either/or with matt or gloss dependent on which style you bought. I cannot express enough how useful your videos have been for giving me a better understanding how these are really like in reality, so thankyou for showing these to us up close. After seeing this, I think I actually prefer the colored ones now to the transparent one, as the colored ones look like they don't suffer from picking up fingerprints the way any transparent one inevitably would, so would stay looking nicer alot easier, I reckon.

I do like the Wallet Case you showed in that video also. Are the inners just a similar material to the FexiCase, or are they actually the same mold aswell? (the flexicase seems to do a good job of protecting the camera at the back, so if it's the same, then that would answer my question about how the camera hole on the wallet case is. But if not an identical mold, how did you find the camera hole protection on the wallet case version?

thanks.

if anybody is interested in a second opinion on the matte cases, i just received mine, and decided to review it! :) https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-5/acc...oneplus-5-arrived-t3633349/page4#post73031002
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] niijonodhg:
Awesome! :)
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] AnabolicAndroidz:
Thanks for this! Looks quite nice. Have you done the screen protector test with this one to see which ones fit in conjunction with it? (I remember you saying that the sleo screen protectors were not very good and that you preferred the orzly tempered glass as the best you have used so far for op5, but do you happen to know if the two are incompatible? (I remember from your other videos that the orzly screens are compatible with all their own cases, and with some of the otterbox ones, but would be useful to know which of the other branded cases that you thought were decent were also compatible with the better orzly screens, so that we know what all the viable choices are versus which ones definitely would not work together).

(I know you said you were going to a do a big vid that compares all the many combinations once you've received them all) but just checking in case there are any that you have tested out early. For example, which screen protector was on the phone when you tested the sleo case in this video? (or was the phone screenless in this one?)

thanks.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] DarkExistence:
SLEO definitely look interesting, I would also love to see their compatibility, especially as it seems to be a new company that has popped out of nowhere!
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] niijonodhg:
Yeah, not screen protector on in this video. The SLEO/Nillkin definetley work as they don't go to the edge of the screen. I'm 95% the Orzly/CaseBase will work but I've not confirmed that!
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] AnabolicAndroidz:
Okay thanks. I already don't like the design of the Sleo screen. (all those weirdly shaped square chunks missing looks horrible in my opinion). Have not seen what the Nilkin one is like, but I don't like the idea of it not fully covering it (unless the case edge lip is enough to cover what is missing), but I guess I'll just have to wait and see what they're all like when you do the final video. So far for me though, I have a feeling it's going to be a tossup between either the orzly or the casebase. Those last two look very similar judging by your videos, but are there any noticeable differences in quality between those two?
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] DarkExistence:
Agree with this, SLEO and Nilikin just aren't doing it for me atm. Orzly is the best of a bad bunch sadly. Or you know, you could use a wallet case and not need a screen protector! Wallet case is pretty nice ;)
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] AnabolicAndroidz:
Yeah, I've thought about doing that! That's the way I used to do it years ago on my old iPhone 5. Works completely well that way whilst the case is closed, however I discovered the hard way that if your phone happens to fall face down while the case is open, obviously there is nothing there to protect the screen from smashing, so I've always used glass screen protectors ever since. However the new design for the orzly wallet cases seem to have a bit of a protective lip around the front, so these ones actually might be okay without the glass on. How is it on yours? do you reckon the lip around the front is enough to stop the screen hitting the floor if it fell face down like that?

(I guess alot probably depends on how high it fell from, or what part it landed on, etc, so I still reckon a combination of the two would ultimately still be the most guaranteed way). But being as you actually own one for this model, it would be interesting to get your opinions on it all the same
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] A Guy Called Revive:
Yeah unforunatly that seems like the only "case" where that a wallet case wouldn't protect the screen. I've been using the Orzly wallet case the past few days and it extreamly grippy so if i did drop it then it would probably be folded up
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] DarkExistence:
Yeah definitely the only chance, a lot of the time i'd say thwe case would be closed though, or it would close at landing or something. Think its just takes a while to get used to!
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] AnabolicAndroidz:
Very true, Yeah, I've never had such problems when holding it in my hand to use it. (the time it happened to me I was actually watching videos in stand mode. Embarrassingly, I was in the toilet at the time, so reaching over for the paper I accidentally knocked it off the small cabinet it was resting on, and it fell down screen first. (No idea why I just shared that story in public, but completely true!)

Admittedly this is a very rare scenario, so is unlikely to ever happen to most people, but just explaining how it is possible, and why I have never dared to go without a glass screen protector ever since, even though there are other almost 99% foolproof ways to shield it. The wallet case is probably still by far the best type of case as a good backup way if you had to go without a glass screen, as so far it's the only style of case that covers the screen at all, but they're generally very good. in that respect, and I definitely feel alot safer when that type of case is on compared to any of the others.

I do like to have the choice though, so I often still buy other types of cases just for flavor and variety, but I tend to be more cautious these days whenever careful to only use them in situations that I feel would be less risky ever since that incident.
[OnePlus 5 Accessories] DarkExistence:
Embarassing stories are the best lol, always.. the best :p

I always use tempered glass when I can too, and I agree that variety is great, but you always need to be cautious!

When ported to other devices there is a switch to enable. On my Nexus 5X it works with any language I believe.

Find your OpaLayout.smali. in smali_classes2/com/google/android/systemui folder. Look for "systemui.google.opa_enabled"

A couple of lines down there are lines that read like this:

move-result v0

if-eqz v0, 0x1

Copy that second line to go before the move- result line like this.

if-eqz v0, 0x1

move-result v0

if-eqz v0, 0x1

It might work.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] equitube:
I am looking for a good ROM for an older Bionic. I'd really like to find the CM10 build for this. There are lots of links here and elsewhere but they all seem to go to dead pages.

I did run the cm14.1 Android 7, but it was painfully slow. I'm not actually using this phone but a friend is. I'd just like to find a ROM that's really light, fast (as fast as a dual core can be these days) maybe with overclocking potential.

I could make one for it I guess or mod an existing, but I don't want to put that much time into an old phone.

anywhere you all could steer me would be helpful, thanks.

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hhiru:
don't push the fault on me. this bloatOS is not advertised as cheaper version anywhere on the Kindle Fire HD 8 purchase page. they advertise it as "easy to use" and "always updated with latest offers" and this is no way explicative of what I'm going to purchase. a bad OS is just a bad OS and as a customer I have the rights to move criticism
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zantillian:
It clearly says on their page "With Special Offers" and "Without Special Offers" and just below the tablet color selection it says what special offers means and you can click to learn more. I'm not saying buying a tablet with ads is great. But you clearly had a choice to spend more to remove that. You can complain all you want, but it was ultimately a choice you made to buy the cheaper version with those ads. Not saying the OS is good and not standing behind Amazon at all. In fact, when I'm able to root mine, I'm putting a new ROM on it to make it more like Google, which I'm assuming you want to do as well.

Installing Playstore

I used the instructions from https://xdaforums.com/amazon-fire/general/how-to-install-google-play-store-fire-t3486603

Worked in generally fine, small remark: the mentioned software under note 1 (Total Commander) did not work for me - my Fire was shown as not compatible, used ES File Explorer https://www.amazon.de/ES-Mobile-File-Explorer/dp/B008K6HN8I instead.

I am however experiencing a problem when starting certain Google apps, e.g., Gmail or Inbox. The start as expected, the screen in shown with the recent emails - I even receive notifications - but immediately after the screen of the app shows for the first time, the app crashes and I am back at the Amazon launcher. Others, e.g., Chrome work without problems.

Any ideas? I already rebooted a couple of times, but nothing changing.

Please stop the OTA updates , even without root

Hi hhiru,

I am in the same situation as you are:

I bought my Amazon Fire HD 8 (7th) during the Prime Day

Except I have not connected it directly to Internet during the boot process.

Consequently , my FIRE OS version is still 5.3.3.0 (stop updates is half the battle)

I would strongly recommend that you prevent your tablet to update itself.

We're a long way away from that. First we need root. Then we need a custom recovery (or equivalent, flashfire etc). Then people can build custom ROMs, but they'll be buggy at first.

So, hopefully we can get root soon. But we're easily 6 months away from custom ROMS.

Its incredible how customer oriented amazon is as they just go above and beyond to keep you happy. they let you unsubscribe your discounted tablet for free if you give them a call. they have created a super inexpensive yet functional tablet that you basically wont regret to discard in a year or two. I got my fire HD 8 this prime day for $ 49.99 with special offers. Honestly those special offers (they are not ads - sort of) are not at all unpleasant. A traditional advertisement would be something that would be irritating which would delay what you were doing say listening to radio or watching a show etc. These special offers are just there on your lock screen just like any other wallpaper and don't cause any delay in you unlocking your tablet. Infact sometimes some of these offers that are basically lightning deals are something i may be interested in and a good deal given i shop so much on amazon. So i'm sticking with the lock screen offers for now.

Yes the fire OS is limiting but hey its so easy to install apps that are not on the amazon app store. i extracted the apk from my android phone and transferred it to my fire hd and installed it without even rooting it. All in all i'm very happy with this purchase and have nothing to complain.

cheers!

[MENTION=765233]salamay[/MENTION], I'm agree with you on 90% however getting root access on tablet can solve, at least, two issues: get rid of the Fire Launcher "flickering", if you're using third party launchers (it's not a major issue but kinda annoying), and be able to move app's cache to sd-card (for us, i.e. for my 7 yo daughter it's a real showstopper now - children loves to install bunch of apps but Fire HD internal storage relatively small).

Otherwise Amazon Fire HD is an all time winner, an ultimate deal for $49.99 (as I got it), and practically works even better and faster than my "e-reader" tablet, Google Nexus 7 (2013).

I agree, and disagree. I've had mine since the third, and I mostly love it. The ads don't really bug me. Really my overall issues are :

*I can't set Google play store as my preferred app. I get they want you to use Amazon Market, but it's also kind of limited currently.

* I can not use my game pad on the device. I should be allowed to do this, but from everything I have read they intentionally do not allow this. Which is unnecessary.

*The random bouts of lag that happen from the bloatware. It's frustrating to be in the middle of writing, only to have it suddenly freeze.

But.. I also only paid about 40 bucks, so my salty feelings have slowly subsided. Replaced by the acceptance that I'm cheap. :D

In regards to bloatware, you can go here to 'uninstall' whatever you like. https://xdaforums.com/hd8-hd10/general/root-required-remove-amazon-bloatware-t3636796 Just be careful and use at your own risk. There's also a link in that post where you can use an automated tool. That will free up tons of RAM and CPU. Please read the whole post(s) before making a decision.

Edit: in regards to Google, if you're able to download the same app from Play Store that you can also get from Amazon, uninstall that app and reinstall from the play store. 9 times out of 10, the app will then avoid the Amazon App store. Unfortunately thats the only way to fix that issue.
