[Droid RAZR M Android Development] DiamondJohn:
I have only checked Open GApps Pico, I have no idea if beans is compatible. If the setup wizard fails. Then get Open Gapps and give that a go. It worked for me,maybe a crash on MTP, but that is common on a lot of ROMs.

The hardware is NOT THE EXACT SAME. The different modems use different drivers. An Aus user here on XDA tried flashing the xt907 (4.4) firmware on his xt905 (we didn't really get 4.4 for non Telstra mobiles) and he had no reception as a result.

PS: whatever you do, do not flash the TZ partition.

EDIT: I posted this in the wrong thread, I was looking in the crDroid one and I was like: "where is my big review that I wrote?" so I go to the tab I wrote it in and it was in the Lineage 14.1 tab. MY BAD.

[Droid RAZR M Android Development] Galaxyninja66:
Wow thats funny, I always delete the tz partition because it gives me an error everytime, I am SUPER lucky then. Thats weird, I remember hearing that the basic story was: Motorola cranks out a bunch of motorola Luges (basically the XT905/XT907/201M phone, same hardware among all of them) then the carriers put software on them that used the modem how it needed to be used, Verizon made it prefer CDMA, Telstra GSM, Japan... Global? Japan stuff?

The firmware flashed fine, and again, I NEVER flash the tz partition because it alwasy gave me errors on the VZW firmware. Why? what does it do?

EDIT: Flashing the VZW 4.1.1 NON-HLOS.bin modem now, I really wish I could test if GSM worked without having to get a sim card and stuff!!!! :mad:
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] DiamondJohn:
I have no idea, but i read (google translate) on 4PDA people have bricked their phone via this. And since I have no idea, I have no idea on the benefit. So no gain, for some risk. easy choice.

Borrow from someone else. We also have $2 sim cards here that have no phone credits. Or maybe eBay.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] DiamondJohn:
Another msm8960 phone which has a KKBL appears to be pretty close to booting if not actually booting. At least MUCH further along than mine.

https://xdaforums.com/droid-razr-hd/development/rom-lineageos-13-0-xt926-kkbl-t3632781 at some people are converting my JBBL ROMs to successfully run on these same phones, so it makes sense people could go the other way also.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] ProoN:
I'm assuming no one has really tried any further on getting this working for KKBL?

I'm on CM 12.1 and at this point it's pretty outdated (June, 2016..) -- a lot of newer apps cause the phone to flat out crash and bootloop causing me to boot into safe mode to uninstall then reinstall previous versions, etc. So I've got auto-update turned off on several specific ones.

Could anyone recommend an OS that will work with KKBL that's comparable to CM or Lineage for the Razr M? Apologies for bringing this back from the dead.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] aggressivepixels:
Unfortunately, there are no alternatives. If you want updated software, use one of the crDroid/RR/coltOS JBBL builds by [MENTION=5417899]DiamondJohn[/MENTION]. If that's too slow for you and/or you want it to work on KKBL, then go back to stock or flash a KitKat/Lollipop ROM without CM's theme engine (that's the culprit of the bootloops.) Unfortunately, all the ROMs I've found that don't have it have way too many bugs. So yeah, stick with stock.
[Droid RAZR M Android Development] ProoN:
Thanks, I'm just going to downgrade the bootloader then and install crDroid.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] RasnCain:
I just got an SMS spam message, something I have NEVER recieved before. I find it odd that it occured only hours after using a new ROM.

It might be a coincedence, and I don't blame the cook if it was true.

Has anyone else noticed recieving SMS spam recently for the first time?

I may be completely off here, but I suspect it may be possible for some app or something to report back to a source the number and carrier in which that info could be used by someone for some spamming campaign.

I happend to use the Pays 6.1 rom, and I have used previous Pays rom's without an issue.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] noellenchris:
It happened to me, but it was from MSN live. I had installed it on my phone and I started getting sms messages (spam)....to make a long story short, I had to email MS, and suprisingly they responded and stopped it. Is the txt messages something like 1000002030230Live etc.? If not then maybe it's something different for you. Good luck anyhow...

[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
and to kick things off, my own list of suggestions:

1. customisable notification lights -- whether to turn on notification LED for charging, type of colour for different events, etc...

2. separate volume for notification

3. remove the CD-Drive where HiSuite is stored

4. default USB mode does not seem to work. enabled it on Develop options and set MTP as default but still, it goes to charging mode only on my phone

5. option to disable auto beauty mode when using front facing cam. i'm one of those that don't like beauty mode. or at least a settings where we can turn it on/ off as default.

6. option to manually change screen resolution to 1080p or even 720p. right now, it's automatic and comes under power savings options.

7. double-tap to wake

8. improve on smart unlock -- paired with my fitness band but the smart unlock behavior is erratic. sometimes does not work.

9. that Mobile Data to track usage needs a major improvement -- ability to change data cycle date. not every data cycle starts on 1st of calendar month. mine starts almost mid month, so this Mobile Data thingy is quite useless in tracking and reminding me of usage. should stick to something simple like what Samsung has got.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] srvoleti:
Your list of suggestions is definitely a good start. IMHO, suggestions 1,2,7 are to be given high priority followed by 5,6 and 8. Regarding 3&4 I have observed the same default action on all my previous OnePlus devices also. May be it's implemented that way I guess.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] K.khiladi:
Number 4 - I had the same behavior on my previous device as well. Moto X Play.

---------- Post added at 04:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:19 PM ----------

Let's start -

The number of options is settings is huge. It's sort of a mess to find out a particular setting.

The low resolution power saver has no notification about when it lowers the resolution.

The double tap to wake should be there.

Notification light should be customizable.

The volume level through earphones is very low. Also an equalizer is sorely missed.

There is a click noise when pressing the power button. It irks me when the surrounding is silent.

The themes present doesn't change much other than icons and wallpapers. I would like to see themes changing QS panel and settings screen as well.

The charging speed while using the phone is way too low.

The camera quality is good enough but improvement is still desired.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] MrHuman:
Regular security updates, enough said.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
regarding 3 & 4... i do wonder what is the logic for implementing it this way. anyone can share if there's a good reason to do it this way? plus, the settings in Develop Options to set default USB mode does not seem to over-ride this, making the option in Develop Options useless.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] srvoleti:
Yes, you are coorect. The settings in Developer Options to set default USB mode as MTP does not over-ride this. Don't know why.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
Clicking noise... never noticed that till you pointed it out. i guess this is a hardware thing and unlikely to be fixable. but ya, maybe have those soft/ quiet buttons in future.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] kakkooran:
One more suggestion.Select network mode individually.i mean select 2g/3g/LTE only mode.Now if we select SIM1 for data,the SIM2 automatically change into 2g/3g mode and vice versa.I need 2g only mode for non-data sim
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] K.khiladi:
Yeah. That's a bummer too. We cant manually set that.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] aKp1:
+1 for all the suggestions! If these could be managed, it would be a near perfect phone which ticks all the checkboxes.

Also club honor forum needs a vast update. It doesn't allow to post a new post after saying it is getting reviewed and the whole forum is a mess. Nobody knows what forum is for what and there are no separate sections!
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
just remembered something else... would be nice if the power button's options can be expanded. i mean, perhaps under Develop Options, we have the ability to add more options such as:

* screenshot

* mute (mute using volume button currently needs 2 press -- one to reduce volume to 0 and then another click to enable MUTE)

* airplane mode
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
i totally agree. first of all, signing up was confusing. first attempt, i ended up signing for HK account. later, i managed to create another based on correct country -- Malaysia. when i joined the club honor forum, i found it messy as well. and... there was no section on honor 8 Pro. i asked 1-2 members/ mods, but never got any reply.

in the end, came back to XDA instead.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] jak989:
For me, there are two major complaints. Fast charging on this device is a real bummer. It charges incredible slow. Also, I don't like the oversaturated, unnatural looking display.

Battery life and camera are just ok. Over all I'm fine with the phone.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] pranav_5:
In addition to said improvements, they should start working on an update that supports VoLTE over wider providers. Here in India, there was a problem with Jio VoLTE and the now another company (Airtel ) os going to activate it on their Network. So that should be addressed as well. Including low light photography needs improvement

---------- Post added at 01:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:10 PM ----------

Also I read in the PDF, about the meet up in Chennai, India where discussions were held for feedback, that a hashtag be created for sharing pictures on Instagram. Can I know what the hashtag is?
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] K.khiladi:
Regarding the volte support on other networks, it's still some months away but as the volte support is present, I guess it will work automatically on other networks also once they support it.

Low light photography. Yes needs to be improved.

Also on continuous usage of camera, it gets unreasonably hot.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
sorry... what do you mean by import HDR to main display? isn't that already done?

also, auto-sync... you disable/ enable it every now and then? or? usually, i set this when i setup my phone -- to determine what needs to be sync-ed and what does not. and then just let it auto-sync...

technically, this phone does not have any Quick Charging tech. it's just regular 2A charging. the phone does not come with Huawei's Fast Charging (like on Mate9) or Qualcomm's QC or even like OnePlus's DASH. but still... full charge within 2 hours, i feel... is OK for a phone with big battery and no Quick Charge tech.

as for un-natural looking display. i dunno... i can't really tell. plus, if anything, i'm am AMOLED fan. but... having said that, i thought the phone has got some display calibration that complies to some standards?

updated: there's this DCI-p3... not sure what that means. maybe later i Google it.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
was reading the Nokia8 first impression when i got reminded about this camera feature where you can take a photo with both front and back camera together. in Samsung's case, they have done it quite well. would be nice to see this on our phones.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
i see. i get what you mean now. ya, sadly, camera apps don't allow us to customise the menu. I know i can do that with Samsung phones. and on some other phones, they have swipe gestures to toggle between the modes. this one... good idea! :)

for this... iinm, i've seen this on Samsung phones too. auto sync option. but, i never really understood why ppl need these. you don't want phone to auto-sync? why not?
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
just thought to highlight this... hopefully we can compile a list of suggestions/ feedback that our lucky fellows in India can share with honor India.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
expand on Apps twin. right now, i only see two apps -- Whatsapp and Facebook. would be nice if we can just twin any apps.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] gopinaidu77:
I am attending the meeting tommorow. Hope i can highlight and put the suggestions strong in their mind. I already got 10+ issues found in emui 5 written on paper. Thanks for ur quick post. If there are more. Plz tag me in and i will present there:cowboy:
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
would be good if you can give them the URL to this thread as the list will continue to be updated. anything that's implemented, i'll strike it off the list.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] gopinaidu77:
Well. Am sure they wont go through but i had an alternative for this which will surely work.thank you
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] iceepyon:
I'd make the device a little thicker so that you could fit a larger battery into it.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] gopinaidu77:
We had battery non removable. How can u fit an another battery by the way?
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
i think what he meant was put an even bigger battery. personally, 4K is big enough. if anything, i cut down on the bezels
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] gopinaidu77:
Well i mistook it. I feel those bezels are negligible. Although they can still be cutoff, i feel honor had already put large effort on 8 pro. I am satisfied with it and feel much better over oneplus5.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] sniperlife:D:
Me too. Very satisfied with this.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] iceepyon:
That is exactly what I meant.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
how did the meeting go?
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] rexinriot:
For me a real turnaround would be warranty services being provided even after rooting..now many a companies are allowing there devices to be rooted without voiding warranty...so this should be implemented here to...as it would give better customisations for uses
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] PalakMi:
I agree but, before that, they should make unlocking bootloader and flashing stock firmware a lot easier (like Oneplus and Google)
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] rexinriot:
true...very correct...i am personally facing this issue...i hv rooted but can't get any benefits of uses since its encrypted...and decryption wont work after a simple reboot...so waiting for a kernel that could permanently disable encryption...more over unlocking bootloader was a bit dffclt too...
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] PalakMi:
It is the most painful bootloader unlocking process I've ever seen
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
somehow... i feel like the PIN entry screen can be improved. there is no BACK/ DELETE or OK button. this means:

* if my PIN is 1234 but someone enters 123456, they get in. in terms of security wise, this is less secure. making ppl enter OK means they need to know exact PIN.

* if my PIN is 1234 and i entered 124 then realize my mistake. i need to wait. having a BACK (like when we enter SIM lock) would be nice.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
i guess the issue here is when ppl overclock. and risk damaging the hardware. though many might just want root to do software customisations, it can also let users overclock...

this is where it becomes difficult for manufacturers and a reason why many don't consider warranty claims after device has been rooted.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] K.khiladi:
This doesn't work. I tried this. You need to know the exact pin.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
just need to rant a bit... somehow... dem annoying that i'm trying to copy out files from the phone to PC via USB cable and it gets disconnected when the phone screen turns off. after changing screen time out to 30mins, getting another issue. it would still suddenly stop connecting and my file copy will stop/ hang.

also, MTP connection does not get remembered. each time i plug in, i get asked the same Q... default seems to be just charging.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] K.khiladi:
The first thing about getting disconnected, I am not sure about that.

The second thing about MTP not remembering the choice and reverting to charging only everytime. I guess it's normal because it happened on my previous device as well.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] ssj792:
***Improved HiCloud seems no one is bothered about this, but I used iCloud and MiCloud, boy the absolute awesomeness micloud has..... if you need a quick wipe of phone without loosing data the cloud backup always worked including the customised homescreen and rigntone and brightness levels. App data backup means most of the apps were restored to the condition they were before like say the continuity of your game and unlocks is easily restored. I sorely miss it.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] cyclops1234:
This is my first Honor device. Was using 1+3T until it was stolen. Thought of trying this one.

I would like to see the following additions

1) Ability to lock the settings menu with app lock. Also there should be option not to allow top drawer when the phone is locked.

2) Within SMS thread, option should be available to select multiple messages for deleting.

3) Double tap to sleep.

4) Louder recording volume in video recording. I find it very feeble.

5) Improvement in low light picture taking ability of camera (both front & rear)

6) Improvement in camera speed. it is much slower than even moto G4+

7) WhatsApp number(s) are not visible in contacts. These days people have multiple SIMs with WhatsApp activated on all of those. All entries of WhatsApp should be visible in contacts.

will add more to this list as i discover after longer usage.

Cheers....
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] cyclops1234:
Point 2 is available but you need to click on "more".
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] K.khiladi:
The camera speed is exceptionally fast here.

Whatsapp numbers get merged with normal contacts. So they are visible inside. So, if you have saved a contact number and they are on whatsapp, a whatsapp icon will show in contacts all against their name.

Option 2 you replied yourself.

As for other things, honor team has been made aware of some of them.

But I guess right now their priority is oreo update. [emoji6]
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
what do you mean by #1? and top drawer meaning? what is the use context/ scenario? coz i believe the phone allows you to setup different users. but i've never tried this.

#2... answered earlier.

#3... try this. it was shared by a user from another forum. and no need to even double tap. :)

#6... i think it's actually quite fast.

#7 appears on mine. there's actually a preference on what gets displayed on Contacts. you might wanna check that out...

anyway, there's already a mention of improvement on camera. i've elaborated on it in post #1.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
hmmm... i noticed EMUI don't allow us to save a contact's birthday/ event without the YEAR. on some phones (and even on Google's Contact website), we can save such info without the YEAR. does not seem to have this option. EMUI should allow us to save an event/ birthday without having to also indicate the year.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] cyclops1234:
I have many contacts who use 2 Sims with whatsapp number on both. But in contact view only one line indicating whatsapp is shown. I was hoping to see multiple lines showing all associated whatsapp number to shown like in 1+

---------- Post added at 10:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:12 AM ----------

Thanks for the screen lock tip .... Very useful!!!

And I meant notification panel by top drawer.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mydragoon:
i like to keep track of things. so, from this list... what's been implemented? a quick glance tells me... sadly, not a lot.
[Honor 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] P.K.Shivaram:
Honor 9 Lite supports Double tab to sleep and wake up. But not yet released in India also it is Oreo based Mobile and EMUI 8.0.

So Honor 8 Pro will receive the same i think.
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] xionxinx:
I can't post a link because I just made this account but I was on the ASUS website on their support page for the ZC520TL Zenfone 3 Max, under Utitlities I noticed an unlock bootloader tool for Android 7.0 uploaded on the 2nd of August.

Is that what that is?
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] rictec:
Not confirmed working yet

It is supposed to unlock the bootloader of those devices but still there is no one yet that came out and say it works that i know of

i tried and it failed maybe it will take more time for it to do what is supposed to do since some connections to Asus servers are required
[Asus ZenFone 3 Questions & Answers] Ukolino:
The tool that was posted on August 2 is useless, it simply reboots the device and does nothing. The zentalk forums has a lot of requests for them to fix it

One handy feature of Google is the ability to identify music.

Awesome!

BUT

I was listening to online radio on my phone and heard a song I wanted to identify. I quickly opened the Google app and pushed the mic-button. Problem; The music was muted while Google tried to listen! :silly:

So the question is; Is there a way to have Google identify music being played by an app on the same device?
