[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Real Life Review] NaXal:
There is heating issue. No, I am not referring to warm feeling of the set with sense of touch but rather with Stock ROM, games suffer because of thermal throttling !!

I am not sure but I think there is a major cost cutting done by Lenovo while under heat management in hardware front. Compromise with Heatsinks or such heat absorbing
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Real Life Review] ABdon001:
my z2 plus gets too hot when playing for nearly 15 to 20 mins..what to do??
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Real Life Review] NaXal:
Remove the back cover while playing.

A higher rating indicates that the camera sensor "sees" lots of light in dim conditions, and that the resulting photos have minimal noise. A higher rating also indicates that when the flash fires, the resulting photo is evenly-lit without any bright spots.

The phone is simply awesome except the camera if we get camera 2 api enabled it will be unbeatable....

Hope we get it in oreo upgrade..
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Real Life Review] NaXal:
There is no hope or chance from Lenovo to get any official Oreo ROM. This is confirmed by Lenovo via their update matrix page.

In a sense that is a good thing, since the biggest con / down side of this phone is the ZUI ROM. I have used many low-end hardware before with poor ROM buy nothing compares to ZUI.

Hope more and more developers buy this handset. Out standing hardware at 1/3rd of price of nearest competition. And they do give us some good Oreo based ROMs
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Real Life Review] essuraj:
The camera is not that great. I have used mi4 before and this camera make me feel disappointed. But it's not a rubbish camera. Its takes an effort to get good pictures. Camera 2 api + gmod5 camera is giving some great results on aex 5 rom. But it probably is because of the algorithms than the camera :)
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Real Life Review] GopalKaul:
Everyone, please rate bad if you know a bit of photography. Try using a manual camera app and set ISO and shutter speed manually and then report. No stock OEM focuses on camera. Try manual and then report

Hardware wise camera is fine. But on software side , Stock zui camera app is very poor. A lot of noise and very less detail even in broad daylight photos. Dont expect anything from its low light shots. But with google camera app, it can capture very high quality photos with high level of detail even in low light shots.

So if you shoot a lot of photos and know how to unlock bootloader and do android stuff, you can go for it very well. Else this phone is not for you!
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Real Life Review] GopalKaul:
Lol. Try shooting at 32 sec exposure! Awesome low light! More than my eye could see
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Real Life Review] Naveenjain:
lol. Didn't try that, neither can i now(switched to custom rom). Maybe you are right. But with stock settings, i had grainy photos. Maybe some tweaks here and there might work!

[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Real Life Review] GopalKaul:

Let me admit. I think i did not get anything what you tried to say till now. My bad!
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Real Life Review] GopalKaul:
Apps like footej allow you to set exposure manually... So you can use 32 sec shot in it
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Real Life Review] nikhilZ2:
Look at this shot...

Just Use camera Nx. It gives incredible low light shots. Using it in a custom oreo rom (Bootleggers). Very very happy with it.

Please remove all other google / camera apps then try..

These google cam mods are not compatible with each others.

If u have any problem installing then try remove all other camera apps using system app remover and try again.

And I personally tried this apk in Pixel Exp & Bootleggers no problems.

It took a loooooooong time for me to figure it out when i had the same issue........;)

Hi all,

I was speaking with Dutty and was going to start him a website so he could load some ROMs up for everyone's enjoyment but neither he nor I have the time to webmaster, was wondering if i could get a volunteer. I will provide all the hosting and the domain, which we still havent picked any ideas ;). Shouldn't be too time intensive, we arent wanting him to have his own forum or anything he will still be here for that just maybe a FAQ repost and some other minor stuff. Let me know if you are interested, PM me for more information.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] duttythroy:
Thanks again man, nice and thanks for offering:)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] MasterOfDesasters:
I can transfer the actual site as soon as my server is back up and running. But be sure what you offer and if your server can handle that awesome amount of connections and downloads in parallel. good luck
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] SimpleSurfer:
i can make the repository....im a php geek...should be a no brainer as long as the hosing is quality...any chance its a cpanel host? id install an open source prog...prob joomla or wordpress....then some light skinning
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] chambersaj:
It will actually be meant to help him out, it is a Microsoft Hosting solution, PM me for some more details if you want to get a hand in helping. I am not sure if it will be able to handle all the trafic Mr. Dutty generates but it should help get his ROMs out.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] MasterOfDesasters:
That's what I've done. Now my server crashed and won't go up again. So...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] SimpleSurfer:
what kind of server were you using ?

shared hosting ? if so what host ? ((haha burn'em))

how many gigs of tranfer today was it eating up ?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] SimpleSurfer:
id offer to host it... but microsoft is evil... im affraid of them

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] SimpleSurfer:
not to stray off topic or anything :rolleyes:

but yeah... Dutty... if you need a repository, i can build one for ya in less than 24 hours... its 1am in Hawaii, so ill hit the sack soon...

after thinking about it... something like dotProject may be better... this would include your repository AND your bug tracker / report module....wouldnt surprize me if there wasnt a mobile skin for it allready... i know that wordpress has a freebie mobile skin...

frankly, its gotta be a little disturbing for you to have to comb thru hundreds of pages of jibber jabber to find legit bugs... having a bug tracker built into the repository could simplify that for you.

ya know... theres allways the whole "hey community, why dont we chip in and buy dutty a hosting plan somewhere with the spex to host it :D"
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] None01:
Is ASP.NET enabled(if yes what version 2.0, 3.5?), and what should the site have?

Should it be a static page or a page with a control panel where someone can edit the page?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] chambersaj:
Ok guys this should help with some of the questions, it is a web site hosting package the details can be found at www.1and1.com it is the ms developer package.

why dont post them on usenet and post the nzb files on xda thatway the speed is fast and the roms dont use up ur bandwith....

or make a torrent out of it and start a xda dev torrent server...so everyone gets to share the bandwith

The worst part of the device is its stock ROM.

It is called ZUI, I guess short form for Zombie UI. Feels so dead. This ROM ruins the user experience and makes a SD820 phone feel like 4xx series.

However this complain may only come from an user like me, who has been using Moto E then switched to Moto G3 TE and used to the stock Android experience along with the features.

ZUI try to force an iOS like feel with an Android device. Very alienated experience for an Android user.

But the average Joe won't complain. Day to day tasks are easy to find and operate !! SD820 is a monster and makes this crappy ROM fly without any stutter, lag or hiccups.

The only good thing is XDA and many developers have bought this phone. So fully functional custom ROMs aren't in short supply. There is a ROM for everyone's taste.
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Real Life Review] Jodh5634:
Plus i hate the non stock android. It doesn't feel like you are using a phone powered by sd820. It is difficult to find the setting which is usually in the main categories of the settings app on a stock phone. I strongly want to flash a rom which improves the user experience, takes full advantage of having a sd820. I really like the changable modes on the aicp 13.1. And should i expect nova like features on aicp or other roms?? Or any other good suggestions??
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Real Life Review] Naveenjain:
Zui is fine for average user. For power user, go for viper os final.

[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Real Life Review] NaXal:
I have seen higher speed till 80% and charging speed slows down a lot between 80 to 100%.

Between 0-80% it charge at an average rate of 1-1.5% min (screen off) where as after 80% the time to charge 1% keeps increasing.

Slowest is from 95-100%. There it takes several min to push 1% compare to upto 2% every min when charging below that 80% marker.

I am using the stock charger.

I am getting a screen on time approximately about 4 hours meanwhile cell standby as 36 hours for an average usage (fb,watsapp,youtube).

Does it means I should not switch on my display but can attend and do calls ? Still using marshmallow as I have seen many disadvantages on noughat update by lenovo.Is this normal to lenovo z2 plus :confused: ...or mine is defected.. :(
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Real Life Review] Avan7:
It is a bit strange, because I get around 5 hours SoT when playing a heavy game, and I rememeber seeing around 8 hours with moderate-normal use. Perhaps if you got the time try to backup your data and then reset the phone or upgrade to nougat.

What are these disadvantages you speak of?
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Real Life Review] GopalKaul:

So i am thinking to buy this 2 year old phone because i want only compact phone. But I'm worried about battery sot. Users of z2 plus are saying 4 , 6+ and 8+ hours. It's confusing. Could some one please say what is the sot in real.
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Real Life Review] GopalKaul:
It's about 6 to 8 hours, depending on your usage. Minimum 5 hour
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Real Life Review] harigavara:
I don't play gaming. But would install around 150 to 200 apps in phone and again daily usage is nothing but shopping, browsing, listening music, social networking.

I have been on AEX since Oreo and the aforesaid SoT has more or less been the same.

I am on baseband 1.76, using Jio with VoLTE and data on full-time and occasional use of hotspot., Airtel as secondary sim on 2G.

Mobile Network Standby has been using the bulk of the battery, almost 3x of what the screen consumes.
