[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] XDRdaniel:
because it's snappy compared to 7.x and 8.x roms.

can you please clarify why beta 7 is dated older than 3.2.8?

thank you
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Hw4ng3r:
It's most likely because their focus shifted from MM to N (N started on Beta 8).

Really? I didn't notice any perceivable performance decrease from MM to N (for my usage of course); I've never tried O, not quite polished enough for me yet.
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] FlixWolf:
So, hello.

Sorry if these questions have been answered, looked around for a bit, however I didn't find any conclusive answers.

I recently got a Huawei P9, and I'm wondering some things, mainly:

Is it worth flashing a Custom ROM to debloat the phone?

Is the performance increased noticeably by doing so?

If the answer to the two above is yes, does everything, such as the dual camera and its features, finger print sensor, etc, work correctly with a custom ROM? I'd imagine not with all of them, so, if this is the case, which one should I flash?

And finally, if the phone is locked to a carrier, will this change? I remember my Samsung Galaxy S2 was unlocked after I flashed a custom ROM in it.

Thank you for your time.
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] zgfg:
For custom ROMs you need to flash TWRP, hence it requires unlocking the bootloader.

AOSP custom ROMs cannot use native camera app because Huawei did not publish the drivers. As a result, you loose some of your camera capabilities with those ROMs.

I suggest you to consider custom ROMs based on stock (therefore you hace native camera, fingerprint, etc), but debloated, pre-rooted and staffed by integrated Magisk, Viper4Abdroid, etc.

Eg, with Magic Rainbow v3 you get all as above and you save on battery consumption.

Do your own resarch, look for the corresponding threads and read what are the problems and opinions (different people will have different opinions).

---------- Post added at 10:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:14 PM ----------

PS: Although theoretically possible, but nobody really develops a custom ROM for an operator A in the particular country B.

Hence you must first debrand your phone - (which requires unlocking the bootloader and switching to debranded but still stock ROM) as a basis for installation of that particular custom ROM.

Usually (unless you go to some Chinese, Russian, Spanish, etc specific forums), it will require c432 = pan-European cust, or in some cases eg mid-east cust.
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] FlixWolf:
Got it. I'm in the process of flashing TWRP right now. Looked up some stuff and will install Magic Rainbow V3.

Thank you.

I have a stock LP-rom H815 with locked bootloader, rooted and TWRP-in-FIsH by [MENTION=5545101]steadfasterX[/MENTION] installed and I want to try the update from LG for new experiences but tbh I am very much skeptical about the N rom successfully booting up without any issues since I have been reading about in other threads and a lot of users are complaining of it bootloop-ing or crashing and such while there are few who are impressed without any issue from updating to Nougat

I am hoping maybe you experienced members could shed some light on this Nougat rom not blowing up right back on my face since it is my only device and daily driver and suggest me if it is worth the shot safely.

--UPDATE--

Yes it is. With proper guidance, it is.

Since Sony devices do not have a recovery partition, I did push TWRP to the boot partition. Now, when I try to install a LineageOS update, the device reboots to TWRP instead of to the system. There I can select reboot to system (or to recovery or shut down) but when the device reboots apparently the update of LineageOS has not been applied. I am stuck with the previous version. Before pushing TWRP to the boot partition all updates had been applied flawlessly. Any ideas how to fix/circumvent this issue? Thank you.

[MX Player] sexy_lady:
Hello all,

I am trying to make my new Philips TV play 4k HEVC videos but am having no luck with smooth playback.

MX Player seems to do the best job but stalls eventually. HW+ decoder kicks in to do the playback.

Short version of TV specs:

SoC Mediatek MT5596A

CPU ARM Cortex-A53

GPU ARM Mali-T860 MP2

Android 6

I collected MX player logs while the video was choppy and can send if required.

Can anyone tell me if my device is supported or am I wasting time on MX Player ?

Thanks
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
What about HW decoder?

HW & HW+ decoder basically uses system decoders which are built into the firmware.

If HW decoder doesn't work and HW+ lags, probably your system decoders couldn't decode the video at that particular encoding profile. Can you share the logs here? We may have to look at the logs in order to understand the issue better.
[MX Player] sexy_lady:
Hello and thanks,

The thing is that built-in TV video player does not work with x265 videos. I have tried VLC which performs terribly. I guess it uses SW decocoding and can't even play 1080p smoothly with x265 encoding.

Archos is really slick and works well with 1080p x265 but lags on 4K. The speed of 4K playback with Archos is the same as for MX Player with HW decoder. Only HW+ will play smoothly but it eventually stalls to a point of 1 frame per seconds as if some error is encountered (always at the same point in movie). Any attempt to rewind will kill 4K playback smoothness and menu operations often result in MX Player crashing.

I'm with the same phone but with 5.9.026s EUI and it doesn't have any menu or some kind of info for NFC

As I see someones here are with the newer version EUI 5.9.028s. Is it installed additionally or the phone is received with EUI 5.9.028s?
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] sk8223:
Has anyone here tried an NFC app? Like Superbeam? LeEco is a very strange company. You can't use third-party IR apps on an LeEco device with an IR Blaster, for one. So I wouldn't be surprised if they pulled some closed source BS and forced you to use some random system app that wasn't included in your vendor ROM. As to which app that is, I wouldn't know.

Could be that only the official Chinese ROM has the option to enable NFC and vendors removed it for whatever reason, or every LeEco lied about it (lol). Wouldn't put it past them to lie

EDIT: looks like NFC is indeed present on the Pro3 AI... Chinese version, at least. https://bbs.le.com/thread-2397575-1.html

I think you should be able to use the same NFC system app for eUI as the x720. Probably using the same NFC module/set up. But since it's a system apk, you'll probably need root. This is just me hypothesizing.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] fxuser:
Following this link https://bbs.le.com/thread-2397575-1.html from the post above I checked for NFC - and there is not such one. On this menu I have only 2 option - VPN and Wireless Display. So for now NFC is just a mith or funny rummor :) in Leeco Le PRO3 AI X650 (X27)
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] sk8223:
A lot of Chinese consumers are complaining that it only supports host card emulation mode. Like what iOS did with NFC before opening access to the chip to devs. On my iPhone 6 all I could do was use Apple Pay. I assume you could get past this on a custom ROM, though, since the x720's NFC can be used for a number of things (AFAIK).

I found one Chinese review that mentioned that your model has no NFC: http://www.manmanbuy.com/propj_550071_37314008.aspx

Can't find any more info on this specific model's NFC.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] supergg100:
check: on youtube, video: watch?v=9z9ztcWR_s8

it looks like the sensor is there but it was deactivated by the firmware update

please check if possible to downgrade:

from the update EUI 5.9.028S where NFC is not available anymore

to -> EUI 5.9.025S where NFC is present

"These are some factors that could cause your battery to drain fast"

The brightness of the screen is a factor. Try lowering it if possible.

Disable active sync, bluetooth, wifi, and beam when not needed.

Using the GPS drains the battery quick. ( results vary )

Push email also assists with battery drain.

Put your phone on standby when not in use.

Also the extensive use of PIE and Windows Media Player also assists with the drain of battery.

Last if you have poor signal strength this can also be a factor for battery drainage.

There are others out there but these are some that I encountered and learned live with.

There is a battery hack out there that can help you with your battery life. I don't know from the top of my head but search for a registry battery hack.
