[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ellis4567:
So had this phone for a while now and no problems, been running nougat for the past few months, this morning took my phone off charge and placed in pocket. A bit later I checked my phone, it was not responsive a black screen, did a hard reset does the samsung logo then gets stuck either flashing blue or pink. So leave it until I get home, flash latest nougat with odin installs fine, reboots and does same thing freezes at boot samsung flashing blue. Flash it again and now its froze after its said erasing...

I think something has failed hardware wise, any others had this issue?.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RishiChhikkara:
Just install "CPU awake" from play store, this will help you keep the device working, this problem is very common in each & every Samsung flagship, starts after 2 year use(won't ever buy a Samsung flagship again), no fix for it, if you don't believe me, check Evey flagship forum q/a section.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RishiChhikkara:
Really? I have a note 4 , exactly same problem, that app gave it new life & not just mine, many note 4 users are using it who are facing the same problem, so, next time instead of just posting nonsense, do some research.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RishiChhikkara:
That's a nand problem, if the device is cooled (I hold mine in front of AC for 5min.), that will help it to turn on & once it's on, install the app & it will work fine but it shouldn't be allowed to shutdown or it has to be cooled down again, it's not a new problem, thousands of Samsung mobiles which ship with faulty nand face the exact same problem, I know it sounds silly, it is what it is & it works(for thousands users)

Read it, on almost every page someone recommended using cpuwake, it's not my problem that you are such a fool who instead of trying to help someone with some advice, would just bash other people who have faced similar issues & maybe know the solution. You can go **** yourself for all I care.

Rishi is correct about cpu awake on the Note 4. It is commonly viewed as a means of extending the life of the Note 4 but eventually the phone will fail.

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Ver0s:
I just want to ask if you guys think Mi A1 will have stable and updated custom Rom after its Android One support will end? I read that because of the fact that it's A/B partition it will be harder to boot into recovery so it will be harder for developers to make custom roms. I really want to buy this phone and I'm wondering how will the overall stable custom Rom situation of this phone look in the future.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] robgee789:
The A/B partition will become standard I think so in the next 2 years there will be lots of phones using it so I don't think it will be a problem

I am coming from aosp rom. I tired flashing Draken files to go back to stock. Even flashed recovery. It would not boot up all the time. So i decided to flash using update.zip from SD. I got the B32 firmware from ZTE site. I started to flash the file but now I am stuck on Verifying update package.

You can not install this zip. size is too big, can not install from ADB too. Try edl packages

Flashing TMO us firmware onto Canadian device? Getting ready to spend a $1000 on a Canadian deep sea blue note 8. Just wondering since it's a snap dragon if I could flash 100% stock t mobile firmware on it and have it work like an "out of the box" t mobile note 8. I'm not interested in rooting(not just yet anyways). I just wasn't sure if this would be the same process of the carrier flashing we do here in the states. Flashing the stock t mobile ap/cp/csc/bl all on the Canadian device is what I'm trying to accomplish.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] leprkon:
I don't see why it wouldn't. The only difference between the devices is the firmware. The hardware is all the same. As a matter of fact, a method of carrier switching relies on flashing the Canadian firmware onto your device and then flashing whatever other firmware variants you want. So, with that said, flashing a TMO variant on your Canadian device shouldn't be a problem at all.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] peacey8:
I don't think you will be able to flash the American firmware onto the Canadian Note 8 without any issues. They have different model numbers (N950U for US vs. N950W for Canada) and therefore probably also have different bootloaders. The American firmware will have to be modified for the Canadian model by replacing the bootloader, CSC, and PIT files among others. A tedious process and not always a successful one.

Perhaps you will be successful but if not you can still switch CSCs with a CSC changer zip that's floating around. I've used it to switch from the Korean CSC to the Canadian CSC because I bought a Korean model and wanted it to work properly in Canada.

[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] combat goofwing:
So you will have all had the phone for a month or so now .

Still waiting here for the UK release ,but is it worth waiting for ,love the design of it

What's all your views on it .

my choices are

Wait for essential in the UK

Pixel 2 XL

HTC U11 + if it comes es to the UK

LG V30
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] spotmark:
I've grown to love this phone. Out of the phones you mention, the only one I would consider would be the P2XL. However, since Essential is starting to release source files, I'll be perfectly happy to stick with the PH-1 if we start seeing some development.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] rajeshr:
If I had the choice now, I'd probably go for the Pixel 2 XL. Having owned the PH-1 for a month now, I realize that it is still pretty much unfinished product. The hardware is no doubt, beautiful but the software still feels incomplete. Although Essential has sent out a few updates and the software had improved markedly, it is still not up to par with other phones in the market (e.g. phone lags when scrolling, it freezes every now and then and the camera software is still not that great).

Although we haven't seen how the Pixel 2 XL really works, I'd assume it's in better shape than the Essential software. In short, I'd ask whether you'd want to be a beta tester for Essential or go with a more established player like Google. In my case, I am getting the Pixel 2 XL and will sell the PH-1 (or may keep it as a backup) when it arrives.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] TheDethEgineer:
I was waiting for the Pixel 2, not XL (850+ dlls for me is too much), but then the full desing leaked and the Pixel 2 ended up horrible. For me it was 650 + taxes for the pixel 2, with 64 gb and outdated design. On the other hand Essential is 700 for 128gb an much better looking, also I had the oportunity to saw one at a local best buy and it was amazing on the hand, great build quality.

If you have no problem with spending 850+ dlls for a phone and you really need the fastest Android updates then go for the Pixel XL 2, but I think the essential is at a reallly good point right know and it looks like things are going to be better
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] QD2DC:
I currently own both the HTC U11 and Essential with the pixel 2 XL on order, so if you are familiar with the U11, i can give you a fairly good idea of what you'l be getting with the essential. Between the two I have, they are very different and you get different value for your money. With the essential you get 128GB, great build and materials. I love the look and design. The edge to edge display is really something you have to see in person to appreciate. Having had the s8+, the Essentials bezel less design is better in my opinion. Battery size is ok at 3040mAh. It's also getting update pretty frequently so there's hope all bugs will be ironed out soon. So far nothing I can't live with.

I think you can get the U11 for $550 and $650 for the 64gb and 128GB respectively. I'm guessing the U11+ will be similar to the U11 in terms of specs, but with hopefully a larger, less bezel. So with the U11 as reference you get a more traditional, possibly outdated design. You either love it or hate it for it's "classic" look. Aside from that you get a solidly built phone as well. It feels good in the hand, it runs great with probably one of the only android skins I actually like. It has a really good camera, once having had the highest DxO score for a bit until it was overtaken by the iphone and now pixels. Still a great camera none the less, miles ahead better than the essential, so I expect the U11+ to have the same if not slightly better. Still nothing wrong if it's the same camera in my opinion. The U11 has a 3000mAh battery, so I expect the U11+ to have at least that much, hopefully more. The edge sense is actually pretty cool and useful too once you setup custom actions per app.

Then's there' s cost. The essential is $700 US dollars for 128GB. If the U11 is $750 normally for 128GB, I can only assume the U11+ will be more if a 128 option exists. The U11+ will most likely have sd card support. That's still cheaper than the pixel 2xl that starts at $850 for 64gb and $950 for 128gb with the exact same internals, with a much better camera. but pixel does have bigger screen but s8 like bezels on top and bottom. At least there's speakers there but if you want edge to edge, the essential is a nicer looking option.

I actually prefer the Essential over my U11. The camera isn't that important to me on a smart phone. It works, takes decent pictures if needed. I'm no professional and I don't pretend to be. But the look, feels and size is what makes the essential my daily driver now. I am totally happy with my essential, and I'll be critical with the pixel 2 given all the good the essential has. I don't regret my purchase and even got one for the wife :D
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] swagglepuff:
Personally I love the essential phone. My favorite this is the size of the phone. It's pretty much identical to size of the Galaxy S5 and it's all screen. As far as software, I don't really have any issues at all anymore, the occasional things creeps up from time to time. Every phone has those random little on offs. There isn't a software on Earth that hasn't frozen hasn't lagged hasn't bugged out at one time or another. Essential has done a really great job of keeping consistent updates coming. Through both the monthly security updates and via essential services and resources app on the play store.

I could honestly careless about the camera, it has never been a selling point for me on a phone ever. That being said, I don't have any issues taking pictures and they turn just fine for me. If you want to shoot a movie on your phone(like all the reviewers expect a phone camera to clearly do) maybe look towards the pixel. I have no interest in pixel xl 2 because it's to dam big for my hands and those size phones are hard for me to use. After using this phone, I have no interest in using a phone that has bezels as big as the regular pixel 2.

You can't go wrong with either phone, and unless you pre-order the pixel 2 xl it's going to be a wait for that device as well.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] TheDethEgineer:
Now that I have used for a while, the reviews were really hard. Saying that this phone is bad and telling people not to buy it only because the camare is not good makes me wonder what kind of "reviews" and "tech journalism" we have today
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] swagglepuff:
Exactly, I have been waging a war on Android central recently and their over bias bull**** reviews. Sites like those only care about flagship devices, infact the only phones they don't say bad things about are Samsung. That same attitude has rolled over to the forums, just a bunch of people who have never even seen one in person saying it's a horrible device. Yet I come to the good ol' XDA it's full of people actually trying to help other users.

That's why I don't buy phones based on reviews, if I listened to Android central, I would have never owned the HTC 10, the Honor 8 or the axon 7. All of which are fantastic devices, but because they don't do things like Samsung they all got ****ty reviews and recommendations.

---------- Post added at 11:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:04 PM ----------

Don't go saying better camera just yet. The HTC U11 and the first pixel are tied at a dxo mark of 90. While google unofficially claims a score of 98 for the new pixels we will see. I am sure HTC has plans to continue it's stellar camera software.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] johnny8910:
UK owner

I bought mine from a seller in the US as I was willing to take a chance that the early reviews were off the mark.

I've had the phone for almost 4 weeks now, and it's a great phone as far as I'm concerned.

Battery life is excellent, I get a minimum of 5 hours + SOT regularly for my usage, which I have never managed with previous phones., Even managed almost 7 hours a couple of times with lighter usage.

Latest updates from Essential have made real progress in stability.

Yes, the camera is average, but not as bad as many have said.

It takes decent photographs as far as I'm concerned, and I use it occasionally for work purposes with no problems in quality.

It does feel very nice in the hand, and the screen coverage looks great.

Hope this helps.

Something I need to mention that I initially forgot. The screen brightness when outside in sunlight. I think some of the early reviews said it was little under lit, but I think they may have adaptive brightness on, because I've used it often when out and about. I've noticed if you toggle off adaptive and adjust it manually if it's sunny, it's fine.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] andril:
I would pick the PH-1 over any of those devices, the design is different in a good way, the lack of accessories (cases mainly) makes it more like a acquired taste. hey all use the same Qualcomm MSM8998 Snapdragon 835 and 4GB of RAM so it's based on your style. The Essential has been great to me and it turns heads. If you decide on the others - I would say Pixel 2 XL so you are ensured support
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] QD2DC:
Well yes and no. The score is official. But what that number equates to in real world performance is relative. To say the u11 isn't "as good" as the pixel 2 does not mean the u11 camera isn't great, although the phrase does imply that. I think a score in the 90s will result in excellent camera performance to some degree. I have no reason to believe HTC won't improve on what they've built so far. Regardless as an android user we have some quality and exciting phones to choose from.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] swagglepuff:
I did not know they made it official, well in that case. Let's see what HTC brings with the U11+. I have always loved HTC and their simple user interface. If the rumors are correct it will be a thin bezel design as well, which makes me excited. I honestly wouldn't have given the U11 back had it had a higher screen to body ratio. It was a little too big for my liking.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ZooBaAr:
I loved the look and feel of the phone, substantial in the hand, good button feel and I liked where the buttons were.

NIce looking screen too.

Software and camera were OK,

I *hatehatehate* stock android ! First thing I have always done is root and Rom .

I returned it, very late actually like just last week as I was holding out hope of kernel and Factory image release but not soon enough. I resurrected my 6P and am still using that because I **really* love the 6P.

I would absolutely buy the PH-1 again when my 6P dies and Essential gets some ROMs.

The PH-1 is a fabulous device. Now that Xposed is live for Nougat, using Xposed on the PH-1 would greatly enhance the experience, for me. Where else are you going to get that kind of hardware and 128GB storage for under 700? I did keep the camera JIC lol

Zo0
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] QD2DC:
I know how you feel. Been an HTC fan since the windows mobile days and loved HTC manilla/rosie/sense and whatever else it was called in between lol. I miss developing for the those older phones. Sense is the only android skin I truly love. Hopefully I'll be apart of the user trials for the u11+ as well. But the essential will be a hard phone to beat design wise.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] bill3508:
Still like my PH1. Not sure I want the Pixel 2 xl. I've got a 6p to trade on it also but it's not really a great looking device in my opinion. Haven't ruled it out though as a backup device. Honestly I really want to see if I can get the Xperia XZ1 to run on Verizon as it has all the lte bands. Plus it's got aptx for my home Bluetooth setup. Sony hates the US so it's been an impossible task so far.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] combat goofwing:
Thanks guys ,some great responses and information,still using my trusty N6P ,if I could gather a UK release date on the PH-1 it would help ,but essential seem reluctant to commit to one so far .Had the early shut down issues in the N6P ,but I changed the battery for lots more life in it just yet .
