Hi guys,

Just a quick question, i am in Australia and was looking for dash car charger but couldnt find any. Can you please help me out from where should i order and which one is the best. Cheers
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] 75markus:
I have the original one from Oneplus, it´s really great and as fast as the normal Desktop Dash Charger ... Don´t know if there are any clones out there which offer the same speed, sorry ...

you can get the original one here : https://oneplus.net/at/dash-car-charger

I got a 4.1 amp car charger from my AT&T store for free due to account problems but it works well.
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] jalal khan:
Thanks for your reply, but in Australia we cannot order original one from oneplus as they are currently not selling products here:(
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] morback:
You can still buy original Oneplus charger from a Chinese reseller as aliexpress...

But if you want to try a cheaper one, I bought the baozhou one. It's shipped with a dash cable copycat but it is surprisely well made, it feels really good quality. I'm so impressed in my car, I use Waze and Spotify and my phone still charges so fast^^
[OnePlus 5T  Questions & Answers] 63holdenolden:

I bought this one when I had LG G6

I know that it's a QC and not Dash Charge but to be honest it still charges OP5T very fast

I bought one of these from Ali Express:

Dash charges just fine, and half the price of the official car charger.
[Lenovo K6 / K6 Power / K6 Note Questions & Answers] hadid90:
Hello everyone, It s me again ..

I already posted this issue in the AOSP extended thread .. But i thought of posting it here too maybe more developers could look into this.

I am not the only one who has this issue, but i think we are a minority. In all custom roms, the compass gets inverted or points towards the wrong direction.

The issue is about the compass giving wrong direction with all apps .. so it s so hard to navigate using google maps for example with such a compass.. AND NO IT S NOT A CALIBRATION ISSUE.

I took these pictures to illustrate the problem and i have a logcat also..

the smaller greenish screens are from a galaxy S2 I9100 running lineageOS and Lenovo official compass app .. it s giving the correct direction .. while the bigger grayish screen is my k6 note karatep with AOSP extended giving a wrong direction ..

when i turn to the right the compass turns to the correct direction on the S2 but to the opposite direction on the K6 note.

as you can see, when i point towards north, karatep points to the west and vice versa..

when i point towards east , karatep points towards south and vice versa ..

and this doesnt happen in the stock rom .. again .. i m just saying that the compass is not faulty .. but i shared this problem for the people who are having the same issue and want to use custom roms as their daily driver.

I am thankful for any help provided :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Kraion:
Hello,

I just got a Kaiser (German T-mobile's Vario III) a few days ago.

I first encountered the "White screen" problem while trying to flash the HardSPL.

So I tried the JumpSPL (Which worked), then did the HardSPL Flash via the RUU update.

Afterwards I flashed the DCS 1.7 ROM... And I noticed my phone is SLOW. I mean very slow. It takes about 120 seconds to boot, the TouchFLO Cube runs VERY slow (And very unresponsive as well, its REALLY hard to get it to pop up and turn).

The camera (For taking pictures) is also really slow, but weird enough, not always, sometimes it will go down to 0.5 FPS, sometimes it will run fine.

I am sure my old wizard performed much better than this Kaiser. Did I do something wrong? Is there a way I can benchmark the performance and compare it to other user's phones?

Thanks!

UPDATE:

OK, so far I've found out two things that made my TyTN II so much faster:

1- My SD card was not properly formatted. (This worked with both my 2GB and 4GB MicroSD Cards! Both from Kingston.) My file system was incredibly slow. To fix this (And I mean really fix, this made my phone's file system SO much faster (According to SPB Benchmark)) Go here: http://www.sdcard.org/about/downloads/

Download and install the formatter, do a quick format with the option "FORMAT SIZE ADJUSTMENT" on. (Dont be a jackass and remember to back up your data first... formatting will wipe all your data on your card).

2- .NET Framework was installed but apparently, not set to be running.

I went to do a registry edit under: \HKLM\Software\Microsoft\.NetCompactFramework\

The entry (Name) "3.5.7283.00" (Which I believe is my .NET version's number) was set to (Data)0, I changed it to 1.

Still, I am under the strong impression that my TYTN's CPU is VERY sluggish, anybody has more tweaks like this?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Kraion:
A clue?... anybody?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] P1Tater:
Did you ever HARD RESET at the alignment screen after the flash and before the initial setup?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] _Alex_:
This is really hard to find, as it's scattered in a bunch of threads, so I won't tell you to 'READ' like I have in other recent threads...

However, it has been posted that WM6.1 for some users is SLOW compared to 6.0. For some users it's unbearable, and for others it's just fine.

One of the reasons might be that WM6.1 has debugging features enabled as it's not a shipping ROM but a leaked beta.

BTW, others have also stated that 6.1 is sluggish only for the first couple of hours (possibly after the debugging code has finished initializing, etc) and works as fast or faster than 6.0 (although the benchmarks say otherwise).

So you may just want to hang on for a couple more hours before reflashing...

Hope this helps!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Kraion:
@P1Tater:

Yes - I did hard-reset, I actually flashed the rom (DCS 1.7) 3x (Following the recommended flashing/hard reset procedures) to make sure I was following the steps.

@Alex:

Thanks alot for being leinent and not just saying "Use the search!" :) , the search in this forum can be a true PiTA.

What you wrote about the WM6.1 does make sense, yet... since we all have the same hardware, and we all follow the same procedures... shouldn´t we all have very similar (If not the exact same) results?

Right now Im trying to get this SPB Benchmark running (http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/) The "Home user" version of their benchmark seems to be free, will you guys care posting your results so I can compare?

I'll post mine ASAP.

Here, I got a direct dload link: http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/downloads/benchmark/SpbBenchmark1.6_setup.zip

Thanks again!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] _Alex_:
We have benchmarks posted in a ton of threads too. Early ones show 6.1 as being slower than 6.0 by about 5% to 10%. I haven't kept up on this as of late though...

FYI, I know dutty put out some benchmarks for a 6.1 ROM that he couldn't release that was leaked and Microsoft actually told XDA-Developers to *REMOVE* it. I think this one was an non-debug version, because Microsoft hasn't asked us to remove any of the other 6.1 ROMs released by tuspidin, which we are all using variants of now...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Kraion:
Alright, im going to look around then.

Will still post mine here, just for the hell of it...

About Microsloth:

How come they are so picky about this? We all have "Licences" for WM, don't we? - If im not mistaken, both HTC and most mobile carrier providers will offer free upgrades of WM to their customers, so why bug xda about offering alternate versions of licenced products?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] _Alex_:
I think Microsoft decided to say that if a LEAKED WM6.1 comes out, it's going to have our debug phone home code in it, so they can gather useful customer feedback.

I had a thread about that too. I didn't go into depth about conspiracy theories though, since it was focused more towards other chefs, and i try to avoid sounding like a kook instead of a cook :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] _Alex_:
Oh, as for why things perform at different speeds for different people, that depends on how each individual perceives the linear progression of the fourth dimension within our three dimensional world. (edit2: Excuse me as I remove my quantum mechanic bong from my arse...)

This is the reason why I believe in benchmarks over any individual's perceptions...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Kraion:
Alright, I ran that benchmark thingie, and judging by the results, I think there's definitely something wrong with my device/config:

My file system seems fubar... I have a 4GB Kingston MicroSD card in it (That I formatted on my Laptop before copying the data I had backed up on it).

Help! Any ideas?

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] pbman1953:
I've been a Samsung user for years. My current , Note 5, is paid and was thinking about a Pixel 2 XL. First off, I'm not a big picture taker because I'm into performance over everything. Plus, like many, are sick of the Samsung bloatware. But The S8+ is a great phone and it has maintained a feature I like.

The feature is pressing a button to answer the phone. The menu button on my 5 does that now. Does the Pixel 2 have such a choice? I hate to swipe to answer. Call me spoiled but it's so much safer while drive to hit a button instead of a swipe. The S8 series has moved the feature to the volume up.

So if there are any Samsung converts out there I'd be happy to hear what you like or even dislike about the Pixel 2 series.

I've done the side sides on my Note 5 vs. s8+ and Pixel 2 xl but I want to hear from real users.

Thanks
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Dielahn:
Ive been using Samsung for years. Started with the s3 then note3 then note5 and now pixel2xl.

So far pixel2xl has been great. The colors were a bit dull before the update giving us saturated colors, which fixed it for me. But other than that performance wise its a dream. My personal experience i have yet to experience studder or lag. Performance is the best ive ever experienced with any previous phone and the battery life is second to none. I average 8hr sot with watching YouTube, games, calls, internet.

The note3 and note5 were bought through Verizon so i haven't been able to flash roms or anything since my s3 and currently enjoying trying different mods and whatnot.

Overall this phone is amazing. Im not sure about the button to answer, as of right how it's swipe but could be a way to change that. If you get a chance to get this phone you won't be disappointed.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] daviddem:
I have Pixel 2 XL and performance is great but I'm leaning towards Oneplus 5t since I can buy 2 of it and performance is par to Pixel.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] mrnovanova:
The pixel 2 XL was good enough to replace my note 8. And that's says a LOT! ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Reuben_skelz92:
That's not actually true. The pixel is actually smoother. I've had both. The pixel does have a smoother feel. Might be because of Oreo. And where I am the OnePlus is £499. And the pixel 2 XL is £699 with a free speaker. Do you couldn't even get 1 and a half OnePlus for the same price...saying you can get 2 for the same price is far fetched. I also wouldn't recommend switching. The OnePlus is a good phone for the price but it is a down grade and you will notice a few areas are not as good
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] galaxys:
Love my Pixel XL 2 better than my S8+
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] daviddem:
Thats not true for USA. The pixel 2 XL 128GB cost $1000+ with tax and Oneplus 5t 128GB $550. At the moment I have both side by side and performance there is no difference.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] MacTheRipperr:
I've been a Samsung fanboy since my Samsung Galaxy vibrant with T-Mobile. I've had every Samsung Galaxy S phone up to the Galaxy s8+. I don't miss it one bit. I was on the fence for several weeks. I ordered it, cancelled multiple times because of all the bad press. I eventually pulled the trigger and bought the 64gb in black, but I forgot to get the premium coverage. So I returned it and got a 128gb. I don't regret purchasing this phone outright at all. To be honest. I don't think I'll go back. Not until Samsung comes out with something unbelievable. The way that I look at it. Samsung is like a Lamborghini or Ferrari of Android. But they can throw all the best parts, displays, whatever bells and whistles they want. But what good is a Lamborghini or Ferrari with a bad tune? Although the pixel 2 XL may not be the best looking device. It's tuned specifically for this phone and you can tell. Also, I sort of prefer the "natural" colors of this display. If you're going to look for issues, your going to find them in any device. But as for the phone calls. When somebody calls and your display is off. It will pop up a a screen with a circle. You can swipe up to answer the call, or down to ignore it. If your screen is on. A small box will pop up with the contact calling and you can take answer or ignore. I'll try to send some screen shots.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] MacTheRipperr:
Some reason I couldn't update my previous post. But the attachments are what the call screen looks like from both perspectives.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] xarfrost:
Ive had my Pixel 2 XL for a week now and I have never had any lag/stutter even when syncing in the background. Battery is superb, 5-6hrs screen on time is easily achieved. Speakers are loud and clean. What can I say more about the camera? Camera is beast!

I used Samsung from S2 to S6 and there is always this delay/lag when opening apps. I guess its just the animation. I find Samsung chargers easy to have problems (slow charge). I am not sure with the S8 now. AMOLED is nice, but hurts my eyes. These are the reasons I went away from AMOLED to IPS LCD (pre-Pixel2XL). I was hesitant at first getting the Pixel 2 XL with all these display issues around it. But personally, the Boosted display settings is just right. I do not like the Saturated settings because it reminds me of Samsung. Too vivid for my liking. The Boosted colors are not washed out, people are just used to/spoiled seeing punchy AMOLED displays, looked unnatural.

As for your concern, a little adjustment when taking the call would be the best move.

So, if youre looking for a phone with the best performance, updates, camera, go get the Pixel 2 XL.

Display is subjective. For the missing headphone jack, im ok with it, they provide a c-3.5mm converter. Thats about it! Hopefully I have contributed something to your decision.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] mlin:
That doesn't seem to be true based on many reviews of OP5t performance vs the Pixel 2, even the very thorough review of the OP5t here at xda. Long story short: P2 offers a much more fluid experience than the OP5t and may even be a little snappier. The OP5t utilizes animation tricks to make the phone seem and feel snappier than it is and it's smoothness is nowhere near the level of the Pixel 2. Throw in the sub par camera, poor support and outdated firmware and it's no wonder they sell em for so cheap. Plus, it's $874 vs $550, hardly double.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] CJ-Wylde:
I've had a LOT of phones over the years, usually switching every 6 months selling off whatever I had to get the absolute latest, but slowed down once I got my OnePlus 3T... It's an AMAZING phone for the price. I was done with Samsung after the 6 series. That said, I went to the Google Pixel 2 XL instead of the 5T because of the dual front facing speakers as well as a few other Pixel only features and I do not regret it at all. The blue-shift isn't too bad once you adjust the colors a bit on the screen (I'm rooted and using EX Kernel / KCal).

My girlfriend has the Samsung S7 Edge and a few friends have the S8s and all want the Pixel 2 XL now after checking it out. It's hard to match the software experience you get on a Pixel device, that's for sure. You can't beat having dual-speakers on a phone, makes for daily use, hearing calls, music, watching videos all the better. I do recommend the 5T for those not worried about camera or dual-speakers as it's got a nicer out-of-the-box looking screen and is much less expensive to purchase, it's no slouch overall. In the end, the Pixel 2 XL was worth every extra penny for my use... make a list of things you need from a phone and see which works best for you as you're all that matters with your phone purchase. Our opinions aren't here to sway you away from what's best for you.

Is is worth rooting since it comes so clean without bloatware compared to Samsung?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] jrbxx7:
Depends on what you want. For me 100% it is. Adaway, themes, terminal em, titanium backup, root browser.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] pbman1953:
Besides the themes, can you explain what the others are for
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] pbman1953:
I've used Titanium when I had the note 4. I don't know how a root browser would be different
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Reuben_skelz92:
I agree. Saying it's double the price is an exaggerated. And I was surprised. When I was using the oneplus 5t my wife's pixel 2 did seem even more fluid and smooth

All the little things for me have been working better on the pixel 2 as well. I get better mobile signal...and sometimes the oneplus would refuse to turn on my mobile data so I had to restart it

The vibration motor is much nicer on the pixel

Screen is on par if not better in some areas on the pixel

Dual speakers. Amazing camera

Don't get me wrong the oneplus 5t is a great phone for the price but when you switch to the pixel you do feel the price difference in pretty much every area

..even in the small things
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] jimv1983:
At this point I can't imagine going back to a non-Google phone. My first smartphone was a Nexus One and I loved it. I then went to a Galaxy S2 which was a piece of ****. Since then I have yet to see much improvement from Samsung software and the software from other phone makers isn't much better. I'm pretty much on an every other year cycle of whatever Google puts out because even if it isn't perfect it's still better than the alternative.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] michaelbsheldon:
Can I add that the ambient display with time and date is soooo fine?

When notifications arrive, they're below the always on time and date.

Plus there's "what's playing now", showing artist and song name for whatever

you're listening to. These capabilities make this phone perfect for me.

Battery life does not seem to take a hit for this luxury.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] dontbeweakvato:
The active Edge (squeezing it) allows me to turn on the torch with screen off, which is awesome. Like when getting my keys out at night. The phone is spectacular and I've had an s8+. It's my fav. You prob could map the squeeze to answer phone. But I know you could answer with push of a button. Just remap the fourth hidden nav button maybe.

I have had my Pixel 2 XL since Saturday and it is everything I could need from a phone. I came from the note 8 but was fed up of waiting for the security updates, as it stands now the note 8 is still on the August security update in the UK which is pathetic.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] pbman1953:
OK, I bit the bullet and bought Pixel 2 Xl's for me and the Mrs.

I'm within the learning curve and have couple questions-

Do I have to use a 3rd party launcher to remove the Google search bar on the screen?

When It's plugged in , for charging, is there supposed to be a charging light? Like in my Note 5 , the LED was red while charging and green when done. Does this phone have that?

Charging- I've tried using my existing Verizon fast charger and Samsung charger with a standard, full size usb, male to male, to the new USB/C adapter. Is this adapter only for data transfer and not for charging? Or should I be able to charge? In any combination I could not get a charge symbol in the battery meter on screen.

Has anyone bought USB micro to C adapters and plugged them into their USB micro cables and had success charging?

Like this-

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B076T4NCZ3/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

On my first reaction, it is very smooth and i think it connects better than the Note 5.

Thanks

Congrats! I use Nova launcher which is great on this bad boy!
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] v12xke:
Congratulations on your purchase and welcome!

1. Yes, use a launcher like Nova to get what you are looking for. It has been on sale recently for a steal (.99 cents). It is hands down the best.

2. The 2XL utilizes the Power Delivery (PD) standard for charging. It does not support Quick Charge QC 1,2,3,4, Rapid Charge, Turbo Charge, Dash, etc. Sure if you get your old ones hooked up with a proper adapter they will all charge, albeit very slowly, around 2 A. If you really do need a spare, do yourself a favor and pick up a good certified USB-C charger that supports 5V/3A, or better yet a PD charger that will add 9V/2A. You may be able to pick up one on sale now for around $20. These phones seem to be picky with data cables, so if you plan on transferring lots of data from PC to phone (or flashing) look for a good data cable as well. SO many ppl have had issues due to older, unsupported cables. Best of luck. :good:

Just bought the Pixel 2 XL and I am loving it! I've been using the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 for the past two months prior to this purchase. I must say that the Pixel 2 XL thus far is the smoother phone. The software is clearly tailored for the Pixel alot better than it so for the Note 8. Even the basic Google apps run smoother and better on the Pixel. If you are concerns more about the Camera and Software compatibility then the Pixel is for you. If you are more into physical design, screen and more features then the Note 8 is the phone for you. The Pixel does less but it does everything it's capable of doing very well. It's like Google took a page from Apples book!
