Disrupt??? What would I gain if I disrupt you and your work???

Yes, I commented straight away saying " Horrible battery back up" because I experienced it. Expressing/Commenting here in XDA shows one as arrogant and I am sure as hell that you are living in it. But where we live, 'who's arrogant' has got some practical interpretation to it. "Denying to accept the problem in his/her work is what makes one arrogant." And even to it's extremities.... Confronting everyone who raises an opinion makes one an arrogant too... in the real world,where we live.

Yes I can say that the gaming performance was Good when compared to other ROM's. Almost no lag or Jitters while I've played PUBG Mobile with HD graphics and High frame rate settings ON. On other ROM's, the frame rates are good initially but when temp hits 45°C and above, then the frame rates drop a bit with occasional stutters. They've got some throttling issues. But when you flash a good kernel on them, its almost gone.

Other than Gaming (esp. PUBGM).... For Normal usage performance.... I found no difference between this ROM and the other ones because almost every ROM out there is pretty snappy except a few.

---------- Post added at 09:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:43 AM ----------

Ha... Maybe. But l was always on stock CPU profile. That's what bothered me. I wouldn't have mentioned here If I've got that 3.5 Hrs sot with some other Performance orientated CPU profiles or tweaks.

Anyway to even shoot videos via front camera at 1080p?
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] Mdroid2xplore:
[MENTION=5075064]optimumpro[/MENTION]

Need your views on my following observations.

1. Torch on long press Power button doesn't work, On pressing the power button, only Lock screen can be viewed.

2. On using navigation bar with smart bar settings, I have assigned Force Close App for long press back button and it's not working.

3. With navigation bar enabled, U-Touch buttons are disabled automatically on it's own. Need to enable many a times manually. It stays on for an hour or so.

Thank you.
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] optimumpro:
1. Works fine, if activated

2. Navbar buttons are not assignable, just home button (U-touch)

3. U-touch works fine with navbar enabled

[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] optimumpro:
I don't know. I don't have the phone most of the time. Try opencamera. It tells you the quality, once you switch between front and back.
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] pkn267:
Open camera does provide option to change the resolution to 1080p but all others apps that use camera2 api shoot only upto 720p via front camera.
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] optimumpro:
Then it is not the rom problem.

Yes, and in open camera even if you enable camera2api it allows to record in 1920*1080 on front cam, something is spooky...

One of these must be right:

1)open camera doesn't use camera2api in video mode

Or

2)others apps are making fun of us...
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] pkn267:

Disable camera2api and see in video mode all controls are same....
[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] Mdroid2xplore:
Thanks for the reply

1. I have enabled power button torch but the thing for Lock screen display instead of torch might be the key Press duration.

2. With respect to navigation bar customization, the force close app option works for other button options i.e. the home n recent button.

3. U Touch is working but one has to manually enable it, it automatically turns off after some time with nav bar enabled.

Will see with more usage time n report.

Also not a big issue, don't get me wrong if you believe that I'm nit picking, just wanted to know your take on this issue, with listening to music or watching video and taking screenshot or taking pic during the intermittent time, the music or video sound is automatically muted.

Though screen shot sound can be turned off but with this Google camera the sound on click can't disabled.

[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & ] optimumpro:
I know you are not nit-picking. I can spot pickers pretty easily. When someone describes a problem in detail and asks for a solution, that's fine. But when someone's first appearance in a thread is "horrible battery" without any description, that's someone, who is not seeking a solution. :)

I think Google camera is using it's own libs/jars, that's why shutter sound can't be disabled there. RE power button torch. On my phone, if I press not hard or long enough, I could also get screen wake, instead of torch. RE u-touch/navbar: I have navbar all the time and U-touch doesn't get disabled.

I don't like pie at all. First, google removed some security features that were available in Oreo. Second, it is starting to get heavy for Z2 plus. Third, the current state of pie in my view is miserable (note, I am not blaming any devs).
