[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] Akinaro:
Maybe before you flash anything it would be good to actually find out that is causing you problems and why?

For most of time when someone have problem is just some small thing with settings/update or very rare bug in that specific device.

Flashing new ROM for most of time give you more troubles and most of its "features" are just placebo that will stop be so nice after week or two, when you start using phone as usual.

Not to mention that today, sadly, most of people who want flash modified system have no fricking idea what they actually do, and they dont realize that its not walk in the park. Half of them dont even make backup of their own data not to mention about full device it self.

So seriously instead of jumping in to the train that you dont fully understand I would first recommend to find out what is causing you problems, then if you are not capable of that, make full backup of device and just make full wipe of device, that really fix probably 80% of problems that people have. And then if you still feel that you need more from device, root it, play a bit with possibilities that it give you, and then thing about flashing custom rom. Because truth is than most of those roms, are just standard roms cleaned from few apps, some tweaks in build.prop and lots of useless features... all that you can do without new rom.
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] Pain_antonx:
Thank you for the answere.

The problem that i have on my smartphone is that it's became really slow. For slow i mean: slow when i type on the keyboard,slow to open app or anything else. I have just done a full reset (wipe data,wipe cache ecc...) But it's still remain slow. I think the problem is in the software,for this reason i would try for flashing a rom on it
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] Akinaro:
Before you use custom rom, try flashing latest firmware via Huawei Updater 2.0 or Firmware Finder. Just make sure that you use proper region and version for your device.

There where lots of topic how to do that, so its a matter of using search option to find details how to do it.

Such behavior is not normal, and even if people whine about Huawei, phone should not lag at all, even in heavy task(Im using split-screen almost all the time with all apps and it dont lag).

As for custom ROMs you dont have much choose here. P9 was never good phone for modifications, not only because its platform(Kirin + EMUI) but because it was never phone for geeks. P9 is for people who just want a phone that work, look amazing and take nice pictures. So it dont have big modding community. There are few roms in development section of forum, but most of it is not really active. As for picking right ROM, Im not really person to ask, because I picked P9 from all those Samsung, Sony and LG devices, because I spend lots of time on modding for past 10 years. And right now all I want is device that just work, I didnt even root my p9 because only reason why I rooted my phones for past 3 years, was to change DPI or add some features that I use, but p9 have those options by default so I dont bother about it...

So in your opinion too is not normal that the smartphone is too slow? U think that with an update i will solve my problem? Another thing with the huawei updatee 2.0 will i loose waerrenty?

Hi guys,

My old Android head unit got touch screen broken so I'm looking for a new one.

My car is Toyota Land Cruiser Prado 120, 2005, with a JBL amplifier, but I already have a CANBUS decoder from my old android head unit.

Can you recommend a unit that will work with a rear view camera (RCA), car recorder (USB) and has possibly least number of issues? :)

And a seller (preferably tomtop, gearbest, banggood or aliexpress)?

[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] ryanjsoo:
Hi, I'm coming from a 10 and strongly considering the U11. I was wondering how people's battery life is with the 6GB ram variant? A lot of people praised the 10 for its battery life, getting 4-6hrs screen on yet I always struggled to get 3, averaging just over 2. My uses are simple, limited to Youtube, Instagram, Facebook and Chrome, my M8 used to get 5hrs screen on with the same usage. It seemed that the 10 community was very split between people averaging closer to 3 and some getting closer to 5, it seems that the U11 has similar issues.

I've come to believe that there may be differences between variants so any advice or comments would be appreciated! Also, are there any downsides to the U11 that I should know about?
[Networking] Zenoran:
I'm having a problem authenticating to network shares over wifi. I don't have any problems authenticating to regular workgroup computers but in this instance I'm trying to connect to my server which is a domain controller. It appears wm6 is having problems with the authentication when using domain accounts versus regular local computer ones...

I checked the event viewer and as far as the server is concerned the login was successful but wm6 is saying login failed....

does anyone know how I might be able to connect to these shares?

thanks very much

Xiaomi Mi5-From PureFusion ROM based on Oreo and restored back to MIUI/any other custom roms

It asked for a pin after the booting screen.I entered the correct PIN that I created before but it didnt work.I am aware of this issue and its solution.Another forum said I should go back to TWRP>Data>System and delete couple of files but I couldnt see a system folder inside the data folder maybe because I did a full wipe.How can I resolve this issue,its really an emergency since I dont have any backup phone.A reply would be very much appreciated!

EDIT:I have done the adb method but it still asks for the pin.The only solution is to make a full format of my data but I dont want to lose all my notes and photos

[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Final-Mac:
I can only assume this is due to the way essential is setup but I have noticed since day one that the Amazon music app is extra wide with no way to adjust on the widget or the play bar. Is this an issue with anyone else?
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] dwg08d:
I would suggest using a custom launcher like Nova. They give you way more customization than the stock launcher.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Seamonkey79:
That would fix the homescreen widget, but unlikely to take care of the lockscreen. I'd imagine that's due to Amazon's layout structure and unlikely to be fixable unless you run a different lockscreen app or Amazon fixes their coding to be a bit more adaptable. I found on my Mediapad M3 that the Amazon Music lockscreen notification goes all crazy when I change the DPI through the settings tab.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hmedevil:
Good morning all,

I had a Note 4 more than a year ago, but it suddenly died and I just had to go with another phone. I loved it, although I had several problems with it (not the best coverage, bluetooth problems, battery drain and no GPS at all)...

Right now I am using another phone but stumbled upon a nice opportunity to buy a second hand one to repair, a n910H. As I had a n910F, going for the Exynos variant was exciting.

Phone is mostly OK, with some scratches on the front and borders, and had no back cover and the main camera is damaged (apart from no SPen, no headphones, no charger,...). So far really OK for the price asked. I also bought a n910F with damager MoBo and damaged screen. I will reuse it for chassis, back cover, SPen and camera if possible...

Do you know which exact versions of camera are compatible with n910H? I have it now in version 4.4.4 and it says, with some HW info apps, that it is using the Sony sensor (IMX240?).

Can I replace it with the n910F camera? Shall I buy a n910C camera?

Thanks!!
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iceepyon:
I believe all Camera sensors designed for the Note 4 are cross-compatible with all models.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hmedevil:
Thanks for your answer!

Info is quite confusing. I found some threads in several Webs speaking about two different rear sensors on the Note 4 versions. It seems they discovered that Exynos versions used Samsung Camera, instead of Sony. if so, my n910H should use that.... Later on, some people claimed that it was not true, it was just a typo, corrected on newer software versions... This is one of such threads:

https://www.gsmarena.com/the_galaxy_note_4_with_exynos_chipset_has_an_isocell_camera-news-10330.php

In any case, some apps identify my n910H camera as a Sony IMX240... so not like in the exynos?

Having a look on some parts dealers, also in Aliexpress and ebay, sometimes they diffirientate by some models, saying it is not compatible with others...really strange...

Does anyone know?

Thanks,

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] warea:
For some reason all the real consumers are having great battery life but it is not reflected in benchmarks tests done by the "reviewers".

Can you compare your battery life with similar usage on the phone you used previously ?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] jemeljsh:
Well only reliable review so far has come from gsmarena.. all other tests are amateur/random tests, but gsmarena has a history/experience and most importantly reliable test pattern judging from my own experience.

Phones which score in between 80-90h in gsmarena battery test (https://www.gsmarena.com/battery-test.php3) are top tier 1 phone in terms of battery performance in real life based on my experience. I change phones almost as often as socks :D, so my statement is valid.

From my personal experience and usage pattern phones, which score in between 80-90h in gsmarena battery test, have SOT of at least ~5 hours in the heaviest of usage and up to ~8 hours of SOT in more relaxed scenarios. Like for instance OP5 constantly gives ~5 hours of SOT, but when you have long youtube usages together with heavy usage you reach the mentioned ~8hours of SOT.

My usage pattern -> Mostly whatsapp, youtube, chrome, some Spotify and Waze with BT, Location, SYNC always ON.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] warea:
True the battery life is among the very top league in any case where there are only few top range phones (mid-range phones are not a fair comparison).

That said the we have yet to get an explanation as to why the bigger 4000mAh size battery advantage is not reflected into battery life advantage against other competitors despite Huawei promoting it big that they have a 4000mAh against their competitors. Also why the promised 30% better battery life than Mate 9 is not showing yet. I am eager to read the Anandtech review which is the best in breaking down the details when it comes to explaining all this but on the other hand im hoping they wait 1-2 months for more stable rom before doing their tests.

I only use 'daily use' to check the battery life.

I try my best to use it as a normal person and after that i use it how i use it (heavy).

I'm not a fan of benchmark and software to test smartphones, it doesn't always give you the right answer...

Didn't the moto z play get a bad battery review from a benchmarking review site? I used that phone heavy for almost 2 days on a single charge. it was insane!
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] warea:
Even though gsmarena review of Mate 10 pro is not out but they have updated their specs and the battery test score is listed now. Mate 10 pro gets a 96h, making it an undoubted beast in battery life. So if all true, then the FHD+ oled combination did help over the Mate 10 standard. And also for comparison, the smaller 5.5 inch display Mate 9 pro which was QHD had a 87h score.

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] androFRUST:
I had the Mate 8 9 and 10. Have to be honest, the battery on the 9 sucked but the 10 is amazing. I was initially reserved but just the other day i was down to 25% by end of day and i have about 4.5 hours SOT. This was a first for me and i did not do any tweaking. Ive never had a phone go past 3 hours SOT and i have cycled through a ton of phones. So if you're an out of the box guy with only a few simple tweaks like wifi, bluetooth and gps off, this phone is going to be a dream. I left the screen at 2k mind you.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] tboy2000:
So can we all agree if the Mate 10 gets an average of 5hrs + of SOT then this is what is expected of a 4000mAh battery?

Is SOT the best measure for battery life or is standby/usage hours (eg: 16-18 hours use) the better measure?

I get mixed SOT between 5 - 7 hours max.

My usage is around 17 - 18 hours max.

I would say I am a heavy user.

How on earth people get 10 hrs SOT baffles me.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] jemeljsh:
just learn to ignore that ;) its always been like that (user posting crazy,in-explainable SOT times), even with phones which have the ****-yest of battery life out-there.

I look at this the following way - if my phone has +5.5" screen I am more than happy if I get ~5-7hours of SOT during heavy usage ;)
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] lawtq:
I'll lean to ignore your pessimism while enjoying my 10+ hours SOT :D
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] jemeljsh:
Even if that were to be true, I don't care as long as I hit ~6-7hours of SOT with my usage pattern.

Don't get me wrong. I am not trying to challenge/refute your statement or the result you can reach. See, usage patterns vary from person to person, therefore I tend to reserve my judgement whether this or that phone is bad in terms of battery life before I actually use it. The only source I do trust judging from my own experience is gsmarena battery test -> any phone that has gsmarena endurance rating in between 80-100hours will be great SOT/battery life performance wise for me. Phones in that endurance rating range have always been great in terms of SOT considering my usage pattern and I consider great any phone that can do ~6hours of SOT on a 5.5"+ screen ;). That's about it.

p.s. one great example of SOT results was my experience with OP5. With regular daily heavy usage I was getting ~6h of SOT on single charge, but when I mixed in super long hours of youtube that same cycle would be give 10h of SOT, but it would be rather misleading to claim that OP5 is a 10h SOT phone, since its simply better [MENTION=3994174]videoplayback[/MENTION] in terms of battery consumption.. usage patterns differ from person to person and the results vary a lot depending on what the particular device is better at..
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] maxmousee:
Seems weird, but I could be on 1 of the 2 things: display efficiency or resolution.

Resolution, strangely, didn't affect other phones that much.

But this can be testes with EMUI by lowering it to FHD, according to other members here.

I can't verify this, but when I buy this phone, if it's possible, I'll definitively lower the resolution. (I can't notice the difference)
