[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] skyrush7:
I ordered a replacement battery on AliExpress for 11€ (with shipping), it's working fine since the end of july.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] zinko_pt:
I'm curious about this battery. It says in the item "Charging Limit: 4.4V".

Does fast charge works as before, obviously taking in consideration the battery's bigger size?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] skyrush7:
It's an original battery, at least everything seems legit. (Manufacturing date, last longer than previous)

Fast charging isn't as fast as before, but it charges 45% in 25-30 min from 5%. I'm happy with it, way better than the 2 years old one.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] xombiekz:
I have spoken to [MENTION=5153548]mezkul[/MENTION] (very nice person) about the battery swap and this is what i got from him:

- The battery is holding up well, giving him greater yield that the one before and holding nicely in the phones day-to-day usage

- The ribbon cable connecting the battery to the mobo is not the same on honor8 and honor9 battery, so he had to somehow modify it (but from what i understood, the modification was light and easy, bending some plastic into place or something like that)

I am now looking into decent glues and/or double-sided tapes for closing back the lid of honor8, and when i find it i will finally swap my battery for a newer one.

If anyone has suggestions on what to use for sealing the lid, its much appretiated.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] zinko_pt:
Did you swapped batteries yourself? If so, was it hard?

I might end up buying the battery and paying to fit it, if it proves too difficult.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] zakk87:
try Zhalinda T8000 Glue, it's the best for this, I'm using it all the time to glue LCD Panels.

Or you can try 3m vhb 4991 tape. Some time ago I glued back of some Xperia Z2 and can't remove back cover next time. Very good tape.

Ask your friend about modyfication of baterry connector.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] tiguy99:
I'm ordering a battery today as well. Think I will grab some of the tape as well

Edit:

I installed the blackberry connect cab files found on here, but the email setup options are greyed out. What do I need to do to be able to select the option and set it up?

I'm running an unlocked tilt on t-mobile.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] BOHICA2k8:

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] BOHICA2k8:
Since I can't get the blackberry connect to work, here is where my main question lies.

When using outlook on my computer to pull my emails I have to dial into a VPN so my pop3 and smtp servers were 172.etc,etc. When I used my blackberry I set it up on the t-mobile website with a totally different actual named server. I don't care about push as if I only get it twice a day I am fine with it. How can I set this email address up?

[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] Arnab@:
Almost all custom Roms are not even updated since last year. The custom Rom or Android development for Honor 8 Pro is totally off? Why is that?

Even after oreo release, feels like no one interested.:rolleyes:

update: Honor released kernel source for honor 8 pro

https://www.xda-developers.com/honor-8-pro-honor-9-android-oreo-kernel-source/
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] mydragoon:
personally, i feel that this is due to the fact that:

* many are happy for stock ROM

* stock ROM has got a lot of features and options for all sorts of ppl

* in terms of optmisation and efficiency, modern day version of Android don't really drain that much.

* battery tech has improved and we see phones packing bigger battery. so, ppl no longer than concerned abt battery life

* limited user-base -- so ROM developers are better off spending their time on phones with larger user-base, thus getting better feedback and attention
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] Arnab@:
You are right, Thanks.

Just After honor ditch us, no chance of Getting future android experience ?
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] mukeshreddy1994:
Honor left honor 8 pro.

Honor is fully focused on AI based honor view 10, the selected developer were given free honor view 10 handsets for its support and development of rom's in future. Honor has ditched the honor 8 pro.

The developers started working on honor view 10 and developed treble lineage os 15.1 rom based on Oreo 8.1 for kirin 970 devices.

Even the magisk and substrantum support is given for honor view 10.

I think this is my last honor device ??.
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] mydragoon:
personally, i dun expect much since honor 8 Pro is a one year old device (using China's V9 as the actual launch). honor already launched a replacement device and if they actually continue to promote older device, then there's something not right with their strategy. so, it's only right that they get support for newer device instead, which is the View 10.

and the Q is... do i need custom rom? nope. i dun think i need it. and do i think it's needed for even View 10? nope... dun think it's needed.

many reasons why i dun think custom rom needed is in my first reply above.
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] Arnab@:
I heard yesterday, Honor had removed Kernal sources for Honor 8 pro(or V9)[after its launched] that's a big problem also for custom roms.

Even in their own website the stock firmware is not available, no even it's name.

Stock rom might ne good, but Many people seeks for Future taste of Android. Honor already ditch us, The only way we could have taste Android p or Android Q using custom roms and now that also not possible.

Where as they are making sure Honor view 10 get erd party development supports.
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] mydragoon:
i bought the honor 8 Pro because it is a good phone. great specs at affordable price. i din get it so i could get the latest version of Android. to me, so long as it works and it's patched (and while it's inconsistent but the updates have been coming from Honor), i'm fine with it.

and based on the above, honor 8 Pro is still a good phone. i don't really care about the latest Android version. what is more important is that i'm using the smartphone for what it can do -- connecting me. and it's doing a great job at that.
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] Arnab@:
U r right, It will still be a very good phone with good specs nod doubt.

Everyone has their own view.

Some people's like custom development.

And Huawei doing open source for view 10 and removing 8pro(v9)'s kernal sources is really disappointing.
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] ssj792:
When honor8pro was launched, Huawei/Honor out up a show like this is device is going to get all the required attention and care. Instead they struggled with patches itself. Not even updates, fhey couldn't make working patches.

They looked for market and found one. That's it. US market is unreachable at least for an year or two, so a new strategy is to push as many devices as they can in current markets while lobbying for US market.

Honor tried or picturized a Xiaomi like strategy but went Samsung ish. Hardware wise 8pro is matchless in its tier but then there isn't much you can boast about it on realtime usage. They nerfed battery when some issues started its that bad.

It's a compromise device that has been further compromised. I feel honor is a sinking ship. They're severely dependent on marketing than letting phones prove themselves. They have paid Android authority and even Xda well to keep featuring posts or reviews about their phones. So that neo nerds or spec hungry guys can devour these devices and guys like these are usually the ones that are looked up or called up by less nerdy or less tech literates for their next best phone.

Such fake image doesn't hold long and easily shatters. Just like one plus which promised big things and promised support and longevity unlike google... and then just ditched all that, Honor too promised devices with better specs and better support but well... at this rate honor 10view will bite the dust soon as well, or if things keep going bad for honor/Huawei they might loop back.

Only time will tell. But for now it sure is bleak for Honor8pro. There isn't a way to jump to custom roms either. So when **** hits the cieling this phone will be a glorified remote control.

In Nutshell, most of us in india got this device with buyback from flipkart, 1st week march that awaited period start. Time to switch back to some soft-support team with decent hardware, ASAP. My bid is back to moto. whats others planning ?

[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] amulbaby:
Honor 8 pro is the most neglected so called "Flagship killer" of 2017/18.

Shortly after the release of 8 pro, they had taken down all official firmware sources.

View 10 is view 10 all over the globe. 8 pro is just a 128 GB variant of V9. So it has been completely neglected.

When Honor was questioned as to why firmware sources were removed, they gave a dumb reply saying it was HQ decision and they have least control over it.

This is like being in Apple ecosystem. Very sad to see such a potential device being neglected completely.

Honor has suddenly started focusing on lower budget segment in India after 8 pro's launch. Devices like 9 lite are starting to see updates for Face Unlock and yester year Flagship 8 pro is still with buggy Oreo update which they cannot fix.
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] Arnab@:
Honor is a dumb ass!! ?
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] kumar akarsh:
Go to honor view 10 thread and flash RR OS. Works flawlessly on honor 8 pro. Just some glitches here and there. What custom ROM support do you guys want more?
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] Arnab@:
How is it working?

Is it because of project treble support?,
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] kumar akarsh:
its working quite good for me. yes it is because of treble.
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] Arnab@:
Then maybe With a bit of modification developers can port those rom to H8p.

Just No one will be interested:crying:
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] kumar akarsh:
lol. why port an already working ROM. it works like a charm with only few issues:

1. some animations are choppy(doesn't concern me much)

2. no volte(i don't need it)

3. no stock camera(will be added soon)

4. minor graphical glitches. (doesn't affect the overall interface)
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] Arnab@:
VOLTE is a big concern for me. Atleast in India.

Ok, lets not call it port----, fixing those glitches.

And jst turn of animation scale?, no problem of transitions.
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] kumar akarsh:
next aosp build by oldDroid will be much stable. but volte will take some time. we now have same rates on all operators. switch to some other.:p:p
[Honor 8 Pro  Questions & Answers] Arnab@:
Haha, bt their rate is lowest.

And I already have 4 recharges on it:p

[MX Player] Michael833:
I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 that was running some version of Marshmallow until it was recently updated to Nougat (7.0). Around the same time, my ability to scroll the left side of the screen to change the brightness of a video stopped working. However, I feel like it worked for a little while after the update, but I can't be sure. I'm using MX Player Pro 1.9.17 (ARMv7 NEON).

However, during playback sometimes the screen will suddenly change and become much brighter for about 5 of 7 seconds, then return to whatever it was set at before. This happens without any touch input from me.

Is there anything I can do to return the brightness functionality back to the app rather than the OS? It's significantly more convenient to change it in the app.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
If the brightness gesture is not working, Probably you might have disabled gestures on Settings » Player or Control. Kindly check the settings.

If MX Player shows the new brightness value and there is no brightness change on the screen, then It may happen when some app runs on the top of MX Player invisibly. By default, Android takes the brightness values from the topmost window. If any widget/floating icons/Invisible screen filters run on the top of MX Player surface it may happen. Kindly disable such apps & try again.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HarlequinPhoenix:
So today I pushed my amazon fire tv's storage capacity to its limit by pushing a very folder on to it, believing I could move the files to my SD card afterward. I had no luck moving the files to my SD card with the ES file manager because of the common root issue, so instead I just deleted the folder that was bogging down the FireTV from ES file manager. I am still at max storage for no discernible reason! and the files no longer appear under internal storage in ES file manager. So what am I to do? To make matters weirder now on top of the constant notifications that I am out of storage space, I am also getting constant notifications that my Amazon Fire Game Controller is being updated. This usually last for a minute or two before "finishing" then after another few minutes starts all over. Thanks for any help guys, would really like to resolve this :).
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] void00:
Hi, I've been using the LineageOS 15 Android 8.1 for about a month now, but was thinking of going back to stock.

I read somewhere that you can't really go back to stock after flashing Oreo roms. Is it okay to flash stock rom flashable zip which is available in the forums after wiping everything in TWRP?

If it is possible to go back to pure stock from Oreo, please do point me towards that direction.

Thanks

PS: My phone is G5 Plus XT1686
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] Myrmeko:
Like Lineage 14.0.

I need it to try something, but no spoilers, because i dunno if it would work.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] WanShootie:
There's no stock ROM with Nougat for J5 2015. But many custom ROMs have it. Like Resurrection Remix or LineageOS. If you want smaller OSes, try SlimROM or MIUI if it is for this phone.

But Lineage 14 for J5 2015 is still very bad, still the best for me is Resurrection Remix (I'm using RR).

Hope I did help you.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] Myrmeko:
Can you give me a link for any rom that is on Android 7.0.0, not 7.1.1/7.1.2.

I tried searching for one, but couldnt find anything.

Edit: i meant stock Android. I corrected the title.

Im just really used of saying "stock" when talking about AOSP. My bad. Lol.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] WanShootie:
There's one way, but I'm not sure it works. My Resurrection Remix has *****d up. I'm actually using Serenity and it's ALMOST like pure Android, but 7.1.1. But if it's pure, maybe you want it?
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] Myrmeko:
Nope, nvm. I was looking for 7.0.0, like API24. I dont really care if is pure stock Android.

Aparently there is absolutelly no 7.0 ROM for this phone.

But thanks anyway for trying to recommend alternatives.

Did you factory reset after update? I just got my force last week and sat through all the updates until I got to Oreo and promptly did a factory reset. No bluetooth problems to speak. Actually it works MUCH better than my Moto X Pure that it replaced.

FYI my car has two BT connections, one for phone and one for media. It connects to both quicker than the MXP connected to even one so I'm happy with the BT performance.

Hey guys I'm creating this thread because I'm noticing dramatic differences in my data speeds compared to other devices. I was with a friend who has a Galaxy s8 plus and we did a network speed test using the speed test app. He was hitting around 17 Mbps where I was hitting only 3 in the same exact area. Is this common, if not is there any fixes? Are you guys experiencing similar variances in Mobile speed?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] y2whisper:
Not sure. I assume you are on the same network provider, and the app used the same server (which you can easily change)

Outside of that, would need to confirm you are on the same tower. there can be overlap with coverage and you could be on a more congested one.

Just my 2 cents

Tested on my friends pixel 2 smaller one he is getting 34-36 mbps

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading] jimmunsw:
x7510 has a embedded earpiece ?

Hi there everyone ! I like to say that u still can make normal phone calls discreetly a bit wiht the x7510 , just tap the speaker icon & adjust both pda & phone volume to second lowest bar , when your call comes in or when u call out , tap the icon again , this time it will show only phone - speaker icon , also adjust to second lowest bar , put your ear to the top speaker while u are holding it vertically , put your mouth about 3 inches away to the bottom mic and talk . U can hear clearly since the top speaker is near your ear , but because u have lower down all 3 volumes , people around u like 3 feet away will only can hear u speak but the person that is speaking to u from the phone will sound like murmuring or mumbling voices . Since it is a speaker phone u cant 100% make a private normal phone call , u got to improvise with the x7510 , that's the way it is gonna be !

Thanks for reading , cheers - jimmunsw :)
