[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] puneetbhagat:
Stock player plays video smoothly but with lot of color distortion. VLC just hangs after 1sec and MX player plays through SW decoder with lot of stuttering. XPlayer from Google play plays video much better but still stutter a lot. Overall you can't play x265 10bit HEVC videos with higher bitrate n framerate and of higher file size on our H8Pro. What a disappointment. I tested the Jellyfish sample video which was around ~33mb and main10
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] Lakadbaggha:
Not only in hevc, x264 video playback also have a bug. The 'blacks' are not shown properly in HW decoding of MX player or inbuilt player or VLCs full Hardware decoding or any app using internal codecs including video playback in YouTube app. There is a permanent 'tint' over video (only video screen) when played in these ways. The tint is absent in SW decoding mode of MX player which means the fault is in internal decoding.

To check this pause a black scene of widescreen video (so that there are top and bottom black bars). The black bars are distinctly visible in inbuilt player (and other playbacks that use internal decoding); But screen is full black (black of screen becomes same as that of bars and so can not be distinguished) when SW decoding of MX player or VLC (No harware acceleration) is used.

Not only blacks become greenish black but all colors become slightly dull compared to actual.

This most probably wasn't before oreo update.

Also there is one more magic to it. I tried to attach screenshot, but the screenshots are clear (tint is absent), even when screen recording is on tint dissapears and reappears as soon as screen recording is turned off.

I had to take shot from another phones camera. Pics in attachment is of same black scene (video paused). Screenshot is completely black while photograph shows how it actually appears (distinct top and bottom stripes).

Eye comfort or display color settings has nothing to do with it.

I already reported this issue to honor customer care but I don't think it would do anything.

Anyways, there is NO way to fully enjoy videos in our honor 8 pro. We have to just accept this. To avoid frustrations: stop downloading x265 video, stop comparing with other phones and simply accept what we have.
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] Life_sux:
Thanks all for confirming. Now I can easily say that this issue is not limited to just my device but to all honor 8 pro phones out there..

But it still hurt that phones with lower price n hardware can play videos better and I can't do anything about it.

The 12gb MicroSDHC is shipping on 03/10/08, and the 16gb will be out by ETA June 08

http://www.memorysuppliers.com/sa12trmimmec.html

Has anyone gotten their hands on a 12GB yet?

Works great? Any problems? Better pricing then 179USD?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] godashram:
16gb in june... i'll wait for that.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] RemE:
As we push to 12 and 16gig, I wonder if the phone will have any issues with them. I know that they will probably be read OK, just wondering if there will be any performance hit with the file system keeping track of it all? I'm no cook and have read here and there about this being a possible issue?

Holding at 8gig , I'll wait and see on this next generation. Damned amazing, these capacities in this form factor!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] ceosion:
I picked up a 6GB SanDisk card the 2nd week I had my Tilt and I love the enourmous amounts of space... but, I am a geek and thusly a power user, and more space would be appreciated... I'm happy to see the limits being pushed and I can't wait until the 16GB cards become common place. (I like to be ahead of the curve on occassion, but paying the premium all the time isn't doable for a college student.) I'll pick up a 16GB card once they fall around $100 or so. (I think I paid $70 for my 6GB.)

-Alex
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] robosiris:
I second that. the form factor is mind boggling. I currently have a kaiser with an 8gig card. and I have more than 7gigs to spare. What am going to d with 16 gigs?!? Well .... I guess I'll find out in October 2008 huh, lol? Yeah, I know it'll come out in June, but I'll wait a tick until the price drops. Perhaps a 24 gigs will surface by december 2008. Who knows.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] lildogg:
ya. the maximum capacity is 32gb but that will probably come out next year. i think 24gb by December.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] ceevee369:
Why bother for an iPod/Iphone after all. :D

I use 4gif now but mostly listen / watch the same content.

Honestly, how much % is really usefull when you stock your card full with 5000 songs hehe?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] flashy:
I have 8gb and thats more than amples, no doubt 12gb and 16gb will cost silly amounts of money, you may as well buy an ipod for the price,

What do people estimate, £70+ for the 12gb?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Subliminal Aura:
These guys think £60 for 12gb and £90 for 16gb.. Think that's wishful thinking myself

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] adidas4275:
my 8gb has around 500mb left....

I have music, videos, pictures, software, all programs installed to it, tomtom with all maps and such....

cant wait for 16gb :) and 32 :)

btw I got my 8gb in ebay for $50 shipped, brand new......
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] margatenj:
cdrdvdrmedia.com has the Kingston 2GB MicroSD Card With 2 Adapters for $12.50 and the 4gb for $25 ... the price fall for these "out-date" memory cards is very fast ... who wants a 2 or 4 gb when you could get larger ... I think the same will happen with the sizes that have yet to come out ... especially once the 32gb comes out ... all lower cards will drop in price... and the 32gb will drop the slowest... is my guess.

Unless you're loading programs like tomtom with all of the maps, and/or a ton of media, all most normal people would need is the 2gb card... we don't have any of them on this site, "normal people" :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] robosiris:
I agree. Once the 32gb comes out next year, the price drop will most likely be the slowest until higher capacity cards come out. Glad I'm patient:D. By the time it comes out next year, I'll probably have 2 or 3gbs remaining on the 8gb card I have now:).

I'm also thinking by that time, a (Kaiser) tweak will be discovered by then and it'll enable you to use more than a 32gb card in your Kaiser, (as a tweak was discovered for the htc herald) several months ago.

I'm still boggled by the 12gb card. That's a lot of "stuff" on a single device to be carrying around with you. Just a high capacity memory card can doom the iphone.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Jonathan1683:

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] Gibbs:
I can't imagine getting by with a 2 GB or even a 4 GB card! I've almost filled up my 8 GB card, with music, videos, and games. I'm going to wait a little while after the 16 GB card comes out and see if someone is selling it relatively cheaply on EBay. That's where I got my 8 GB card, for quite a reasonable price.

flashy, once the card is in the phone, you don't really need to remove it often. Less chance that it will get lost or broken if you just leave it in the phone. I add stuff to it by syncing, or I use total commander to delete stuff I no longer want on it.

I have some songs, but I guess I'll just have to get some music videos and games :D.

I got my Kaiser and a 8gb card as a package deal, but my next card will most likely be a 16gb or a 24gb card.

Spying: Google gathers data about where and when you've been, what pages visited, GPS locations, WiFi names (even if these are OFF) Google does that through Android. There's tons of specialist IT sites saying that. "Android is spying", BTW iOS is spyting too.

Didn't you know that? I thought everybody on XDA would knew what dirty spying tactics Google performs.

Incoginto mode in the browser in normal Android stock?! (it doesnt do well even on dekstop PC with linux or Windows)

I'm not saying stop using smartphones at all but we can protect ourselfs by using ... .what? LineageOs that other? That's why am asking.

Not to long ago Google admited that they read every mail (of course first by AI algorythms).

BTW Did yo all know that (it is proven by scientisc, showed in Morgan Freemans program)

Google can predict with 80% acurrate rate where and when you will be on any given day in a 1 year period.

look here man, you don't need to be that much paranoid. i know all these things, but they do just to give you a more personalized experience. If you don't want google to be with you. There are two things which will make you completely spy proof. Firstly, change your imei, imei changing will greatly change your device data and no data will be registered as your personal one. "IMEI Spoofing", is what i mean. Secondly, clean flash lineage os, without gapps. Also note that changing imei can result in no calls, or hardware failure.

That is completely normal. The second screen and main screen share the same backlight even when turned off you will still see some light bleed through the black pixels. They dont have separate backlights so it is still on behind the screen.

Hi! Well as many people don't know but Lg v20's main screen and the second screen are the same panel having a Cut around the left corner which make it feels like that Both displays are separate and also they make some kernel tweaks to make them virtually separate.So even you turn off the secondary display its backlight will still Remain on.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] MayankMathur:
That's weird. Did you call a customer service centre? If I'd receive such product my first though would be to confirm if the Mido I got is a refurbished one or 1st hand. And even if it's one, then the Xiaomi guys should have relocked it... Maybe it's a software bug, try restarting. And the ultimate way to confirm is to use your PC, and you know the rest I hope.

Well, if you feel you can replace it (maybe) talk to amazon guys and confirm if they cover such thing in their replacement policy. Good luck.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] MyNameIsRage:
You have to check if the bootloader is really unlocked or not. For this download this zip - https://drive.google.com/open?id=13Sjej5zIJPm_yiJQOVR4rEocwbhDc9oh

Unzip in pc and inside the platfrom-tools folder hold shift and right click.

In the menu it should say, open command prompt here or open powershell here.

click on the provided item (whatever of both it shows)

now, boot your device in fastboot by switching it off and holding down the power and volume down. Once the fastboot mode is open, connect your device via cable to your pc.

Now if you opened a command prompt window then type in -

fastboot devices

This command will show the connected fastboot devices. If nothing is printed on screen on executing command, then try reconnecting.

then type -

fasboot oem device-info

But if you have powershell then type in

.\fastboot devices

and

.\fastboot oem device-info

This will return some data and now you have to check the first two parameters saying "device tampered" and "device unlocked".

If device unlocked says true, then that means someone had actually used the device before. and if device tampered says true, then definetly someone has tested out your device, by doing all kinds of stuff like installing roms etc.
