[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Galaxo60:
I'm agree with what you wrote, and also I read the analysis before, but I think is more matter of the level of blue tint each get in their screens, and there is no way to know it until you get the phone. I have seen images and videos in internet of units where is barely noticeable, and even screen calibration and temperature is totally different, but in my device for example the color shift is really annoying.

According to many users, blue tint is greatly diminished in units made starting December, but the one I got 2 days ago is from mid Nov and is really bad. Google has been clever and making discounts just to get rid of defective batches. Kind of scam, like saying "we give some discount and a Google Home Mini in exchange of a blue screen unit, because still we have to get rid of those somehow".

The people who are looking for the Pixel 2 XL or the ones reading this should aim to get a unit from December onwards, so the blue tint would be minimum. That's why I waited until the last days of December to order mine, and that's why I'm so angry, because Google is playing with people and they are still sending older and defective units from 3 months ago, and if you ask for an exchange, they said the screen is fine and they won't make any exchange. I already talked with some Google rep, and he told me this:

Philip M8:05 PM

The Pixel 2 XL was designed to take advantage of multiple facets of the innovative new POLED technology, including QHD+ resolution with 538 pixels per inch as well as a wide color gamut.

Philip M8:06 PM

The screen is working as intended, however you would be receiving a security patch update and this would reduce once the device is updated.

Philip M8:18 PM

I will share the feedback to my development team from my end on this as this would be posted directly to them and they might consider to look after this in the future updates.

Philip M8:19 PM

I'm sorry as I was unable to resolve your issue today, however I hope this would get resolved at the earliest.

People have RMA their devices 2,3 and even 5 times until get a decent unit, but not all have the luck, the patience, the money or the time to do this.

:silly:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] gee2012:
First thing is that the blue shift is only noticable with white backgrounds and second besides the screen this is the very best android phone available atm. One wrong doesn`t spoil all the of rights imo ;)
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Paradoxxx:
Black crush, black smearing, un-uniform backlighting, red color shift from left to right + blue shift, grainy display.

That's just not one wrong ;)
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jrbxx7:
Sounds like you have a bad device.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Paradoxxx:
Probably, like 80% of the device they actually manufactured.

Thing is I have no time to exchange it or do all that crap, and I should not have to do so.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] BabelHuber:
On the one hand you are right - the QC should have been better so that defective devices aren't shipped to customers.

On the other hand you have spent quite some time here crying about your faulty device. I doubt that RMA would have taken longer :p

EDIT: Is everybody who is complaining here ordering their phone online? I went to a T-Mobile store and checked the 2 devices they had in the show room - both looked fine. When I got my phone I turned it on and quickly compared it with the ones from the show room. Then I said "this one is fine for me" and bought it...
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Paradoxxx:
Thing is, I can't RMA it. I am living in Poland, and I bought of the phone in Ebay. I just have one phone, and I need it on a daily basis.

Anyway I've ordered another phone, and waiting for it to arrive. Google did not meet my expectations, and it's time to switch, or at least try something else.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Galaxo60:
I live in Romania, and I bought it in the UK Google Store through a forwarding service in Europe.

I bought it from Google because everyone said the support and service is good, but when I tried to RMA, they rejected and said the screen was good and is working as intended. They are not exchanging phones for this blue shift problem apparently, even when they asked photos and is really a noticeable issue, and in person is even worse.

Of course I can return it, get the refund, and then buy it again, but this time I would have to pay the full retail price and also the shipping costs involved, which I'm not doing because it doesn't guarantee me to get a nice unit. I can't afford to return 4-5 times until I get a decent phone.

I will take a look to the HTC U11+ that some local store already has in stock, and if I see is a good device, I will return the Pixel 2 XL and stick with the U11+.

I attach the same images I sent to Google rep for the blue shift issue, which they said there is no issue at all. The first is pointing forward and they look similar; the other 2 speak for themselves:

:rolleyes:

The ViperOS team has moved on to Android Oreo, so this ROM is provided as-is and probably won't be receiving any updates.
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] steven360:
wow, you're doing so much work for old ROMs that I used to use! Thanks for your contributions to XDA! :)
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] kemdroid:
Thank you for the hard work and dedication!
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] kemdroid:
Will O allow dirty flash or just clean?
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] joelh:
We don't even know if this device will get O.
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] kemdroid:
Omg. Okay understood. :crying::fingers-crossed:
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] steven360:
well Lineage devs for Honor 5X are working on it, but [MENTION=7660770]animeme[/MENTION] is correct, we have no guarantee of getting O
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] kemdroid:
Yea I figured. Well let's not cry yet.
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] steven360:

[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] joelh:
He can't use tethering or Bluetooth file transfer. These issues won't be fixed because ViperOS is no longer receiving updates.

But up to yesterday I transferred a file using Linux Mint which is my primary OS.
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] rodolphe06:
To be more clear:

Hotspot with ROM not working ( make the phone a wifi router )

Transfering file with bluetooth to a computer windows did not work. No transfer connection detected from windows
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] kemdroid:
I see okay got it now. Fingers crossed then for an update or so, let's be positive.

---------- Post added at 07:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:14 PM ----------

Okay guys so I tested hotspot today and it worked perfect. I was able to create the hotspot and connect to it with my PC. Therefore I believe everything on this ROM is working for me.

I recommend any one having issues to do a clean install. Wipe system, internal, davilk and cache.

Good luck!
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] joelh:
There won't be an update, like I mentioned before. That's why I don't mind you and [MENTION=8339737]crayonicle[/MENTION] spamming this thread :laugh:

Good to know your hotspot is working :svetius:
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] kemdroid:
Ha ha :p. My device is solid. Thanks to you guys for the hardwork!
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] rodolphe06:
Just for info, enabling a setting in build prop makes hot-spot wifi OK.

Thats why someone had no issue with a custom kernel having the settings.
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] kemdroid:
This thread is a bit silent though. :crying:.
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] joelh:
I added a Mega link in the first post. It's still the same Nov 05 build, because Viper hasn't updated their sources...

I said I don't mind you spamming here, but that's a little extreme. Please keep it about the ROM. :silly:

Hi !

I love this ROM, for me it's the best for Honor5x. Thanks you for your job ! :good:

But i have a problem, the hotspot wifi don't work.

Many time, i have allready test a new install, whit all wypes. But everytime the hotspot don't work. :(

It's a real problem for me, because, sometimes i use this fonctionality.

[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] BerurierNoir:

what the better solution for me? Flash a custom kernel?

If there is only this solution, can you advise me?
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] mauam:
Are you kidding me!? Install magisk, edit your build.prop, uninstall magisk if you don't want to be rooted.
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] joelh:
Flashing Astral Kernel will also work, yes.
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] BerurierNoir:
Personally, if I install magisk, my smartphone bootloop. So is not the best solution for me.

Thanks anyway for responding, even if your way of being is unpleasant.

Thank you for your help, I tried to flash Astral to see. I have everything installed again.

But unfortunately, it still makes it impossible to use the wifi hotspot. It's embarassing. I don't know why i have this problem.

Maybe I'm not doing something right.
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] rodolphe06:
Magisk v14 has no bootloop for me.

As said best solution is to root, mod build.prop and unroot

Maybe I'm bad luck, I'll try again tomorrow, thanks for your return.
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] joelh:
My understanding of this topic was that one user had used hotspot with no issues because he had installed a custom kernel that inadvertently fixed the problem without the user ever being aware there was an issue. Paging [MENTION=7234270]rodolphe06[/MENTION] for assistance :confused:

No need to be root. Soft keys is navigation bar correct ?

If so its somewhere under settings>venom i.e. custom settings of ROM

Yes but active on O, no more Nougat.
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] ElBerretin:
How so? This thread is 7.1.2 - is there another 8.0 thread I haven't seen? If ViperOS is running O, doesn't it make it the first and only current ROM to do so? Not that I don't believe you, but with all the waiting, I would've thought a ROM making it to O would've been bigger news.

So, can I (clean) flash this over Nougat LOS without issues?
[Honor 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develo] MayB4ck:
It means the ROM devs are developing features for Android O, not building Android N ROMs anymore. Our device still doesn't have an O ROM but hopefully in the future it will :)

¿Can i install on it another region stock rom?

My phone is sim unlocked and can be rooted. Right now is unrooted.
