[Honor 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] pasasa:
Guys, I am planning to purchase a flagship recently, Samsung S9 was my favour before known Honor 10 from Honor hub of XDA ‘【The New Species in Color】Honor 10 makes Galaxy S9 looks boring！！！’. Honestly, the colour Aurora violet impressed me a lot. S9 looks a little bit boring (S9 still looks much better than iPhone 8) compared with Honor 10. Exclude the ID design, the specification of Honor 10 still not worse than S9.

It is no doubt the absolute performance of Kirin 970 is slightly weaker than Snapdragon 845 or Exynos 9810, but the high performance of 845 can do nothing exclude game! (Well, I’m not a gaming addict) In contrast, the NPU innovated in 970 is awesome, especially utilised for scene recognition and semantic image segmentation mode in camera. To illustrate this two AI technology, I quote the official explanation from Honor below:

The Honor 10’s AI camera was developed and supported by the NPU processor in the Kirin 970 chipset, which means it recognises 500+ scenarios in 22 categories real-time. It can pinpoint the outlines of various surrounding objects, like the sky, plants, people and waterfall, and identify their locations. This feature is supported by the industry-first Semantic Image Segmentation technology, which allows the Honor 10 to identify multiple objects in one single image. It is here where the Honor 10 stands out from the crowd at the first place. Furthermore, the industry-first Honor 10 features apply scene-specific parameters to each photo real-time when taking a picture, making every photo you take professional at just one click.

IT’S REALLY COOL!!!!

I’m sure there will be more AI utilizations in the future based on NPU. Currentlutilizationisation of new technology on the phone is much more rational than pursuing absolute performance blindly.

In the unlock aspects, S9 has iris recognition, facial recognition and fingerprint on the back. But I prefer the ultrasonic fingerprint on Honor 10 since it not only located on the front but also work with a wet finger. By the way, the facial recognition also present on Honor 10 lol…

And the battery of Honor 10 is 3400mAh which is more than 3000mAh in S9. I think Samsung is too conservative on both battery capacity and fast charge after the issue of Note 7, the small battery and outdated 18V fast-charging technology make S9 less attractive. Moreover, the SuperCharge of Honor provides 5V 4.5A = 22.5W keeps phone cool when charging compared with the high voltage 18W QC2.0 (9V 2A). The cool SuperCharge makes me feel more reliable than hot QC2.0, cause I always worry that my Galaxy S7 ‘Boom’ when I charging, it’s really hot!!!

Honor 10 has launched in China last week, ¥2599 (€340) for 64GB; ¥2999 (€391) for 128GB which is much cheaper than Galaxy S9 (nearly €1,000).

As the global launch event will be held on May 15th in the UK, I am so curious about the price. Here I listed some of the core specs of the two phones.

What price do you guys think this psychedelic new phone from Honor is going to be?

€400 or €500?

I have prepared €1,000 for S9 before, but now I think I can purchase two Honor 10 for me and my wife lol…

I would choose Honor 10.I just like huawei more.Price quality and specs ratio hands down for honor 10.

[Honor 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] haitaoh:
With Honor 10 in my hands for 4 days, I would say go buy it if you don't mind the over saturated camera, especially the overly airbrushed human faces in photos. So much for "AI camera"... I regretted my ¥2999.

Fair to say though the phone looks gorgeous and the notch can be turned off...

If I have another chance, I would rather wait for 1+6

Ok, that sounds terrible! Can you post some inages, with and without AI. some faces, plants, landscapes/city images? that would be greatly appreciated!
[Honor 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] alpine101:
"especially the overly airbrushed human faces in photos."

Ah, but that makes the images 'professional' apparently. I think I'll stick to a proper, straight set of images that I can post process, should I so choose, with photoshop...
[Honor 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nur Alomgir:
If honor 10 will launch in India with base variant at 35k then there is no competition with oneplus 6. Everyone go for the oneplus 6 at 37k. Also honor has unspecified version of gorilla glass protection. But oneplus 6 has gorilla glass 5. Last time honor launched it's honor v10 that has some of the better specs with it's bigger battery and price at just 30k of 128gb variant and also the display quality.
[Honor 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] haitaoh:
"Can you post some inages, with and without AI. some faces, plants, landscapes/city images? ..."

Unfortunately I don't have much spare time during the day - but I will try but not very soon.

"but that makes the images 'professional' apparently"

I guess those PS effect automation is the so-called "intelligence" of current camera-hype. I just don't like the overexposed and airburshed fake faces - some might like it though.

Colleage of mine who has s8+ said to me the same thing. He owned Piexl 1 before and would go back to Pixel 3 (when out) solely for the camera department.

Apart from camera the fingerprint recognition of Honor 10 is hardly usable with dry hands - face unlock is fatastic though.
[Honor 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] pasasa:
Can I turn off the AI camera if I don't want the "intelligent" effect?
[Honor 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] haitaoh:
You can, only partially. It has apeture, portrait and photo mode. In portrait mode you can set beauty level and photo mode has AI switch. I have set beauty level 0 and AI off - improving to some extent - but to me the photos are still overexposed and unnatual.

Selfie camera is more obvious even with beauty level 0.

BTW the phone was bought from China in a trip and I live in NZ so returning is a real challenge. I decided to keep it despite of the annoyances. I like the size and the looks of the body, dual sim functionality, and able to customise the UI to my liking...

i hope you can make it like i do.

[Moto E4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] crackpot360:
OK, i'll try what you said, but are you sure it's because of the security patch? none of the security settings on the phone are working, pattern, password and pin all give the same result which is crashing the settings app.

Also I don't know if this is related or not, but when I was rooting the device, the instructions were to flash the 'Disable dm-verity and Force encryption' zip so I did that, maybe that is causing it as well?

Thanks for the time.

Wonder why that's happening though. It should've been made with e4+'s partition size in mind.
[Moto E4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] hetor99:
it's because that build is based on oreo source, if you use "fastboot boot twrp.img" that build will boot, the problem is that building the oreo branch makes the img file exced the partition size for recovery, so it cant be flashed
[Moto E4 Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] raghuM:
Explains the weird behaviour. So it isn't possible to flash any builds based on oreo source on this device? Asking cause I reckon the twrp team won't be basing later recoveries (if any) on the nougat source anymore.

Guess that's for them to deal with

I had test almost every custom rom for our device... But there is no benifit of moving to custom rom... Reasons:- 1. Battery life effectively reduced(bcz that fuse kernel is ****ing up)

2. Sound quality greatly reduced in both speaker and headphones(specially bass nd clearity)

3. You loose your volte...

I would recommend you that you should debloat the stock rom....

Any hopefor security patches?

Hello, I'm a little late to the party, I know, but is it possible to somehow get security patches? I really like the ROM, but I kind of feel not well running around witha device that's lacking security features for years. Could I maybe extract these from an updated Stock backup I made earlier? Or is the only option for me to learn how to use the source code and update it myself? Because God or something knows I'd need way too much time, since I know almost nothing about programming.

"drag & drop" in small screen devices by stylus Asin: B073HWYK1T on Windows 8 ?

Hey all,

I wrote a few drag and drop questions and they have been working fine on stylus by Asin: B073HWYK1T on Amazon but not quite well on small screen devices such as phones. When the same question was attempted on a small screen device, attempting to drag a draggable item (be it with my finger tip or stylus) onto the drop area will see the background image and the droppable area moving at the same time. This problem will make the draggable item next to impossible to reach the droppable area as they are just moving at the same time ! Please help.

Length:5.5"(140mm)

Pen tube diameter 0.35"(9.5mm)

[General Topics] kokonuts86:
Hi,

I have done some search around the topic and did not find much. I would like to have your opinion on this:

Let's say that there are some ROM developer who took an open source ROM code and installed Bluz bluetooth stack that is under GPL. then released the ROM as closed source. Is this legal ? can you take some open source stuff and closed source them then distribute the binaries?

Another issue that I am wondering about, is why ROM developers never release the source code of their ROM, so others can build on top of their work? for example many TV boxes and dev boards have closed source custom ROMs. If they are giving it out for free, and they are not really after money, why not open source the thing. They usually get busy cooking a ROM for another device and they do not really care about the older one, so why not release the source code, and let others continue their work.
[General Topics] Zacharee1:
I want to start by saying, that if you find any closed-source ROMs that also don't release the kernel source, then it's a problem, and you should report the thread if it's on XDA. Otherwise, read on.

Now, let's take a look at how Android is licensed. The Android OS itself is licensed under the Apache Open Source License. The Apache License allows people to use, modify and redistribute the licensed code as they see fit as long as they include the Apache License in what they modified. Apache also allows someone to take open source work and make it closed source after modification, if they want. Apache is a pretty flexible license.

The confusion comes in when including the kernel. Since Android uses a modified Linux kernel, which is licensed under GPL, its kernel is also required to be licensed under GPL. That means anyone who makes an Android kernel, unless they build one from scratch, has to release the source, and under the GPL license. Manufacturers, such as LG, Samsung and Huawei, opt not to release the source for their AOSP derivative, but they're required to release their kernels (that's why you'll see the opensource.whateverOEM.com pages).

As for hobbyist developers, well, it's up to them whether or not to release their ROM source, as long as they publish their kernel source. No one can really explain why a developer would do this, except that developer. It can be annoying, especially once that ROM is abandoned, but it's in a developer's right to withhold the ROM source.

Now, for your bluez example. I don't believe it's illegal to package in GPL projects into a closed source project, given two things: that GPL project should be mention (if the closed project is a ROM) in the About>>Legal section of Settings, with a link and the license for it; and that GPL project must not be modified from the original source. If it is modified, the developer is required to release just the GPL portion. Everything else can say closed source. So no, you can't take a GPL project, modify it, and then redistribute the modified version without releasing the source. However, if it isn't modified, a link and license should be all that's needed. Neither situation requires releasing every part of the project.
[General Topics] kokonuts86:
Thank you for comprehensive answer. One small thing to clarify. So if Bluez and Kernel are both GPL projects, how come it is enough to have a link for the Bluez project while for the Kernel there must be a source code release? is it because it is almost always that the dev needs to modify the Kernel for their use? and once modified the code needs to be open?

Related to the topic, is how Google dealt with BlueZ.

http://www.argenox.com/blog/android-5-0-lollipop-brings-ble-improvements/
[General Topics] Zacharee1:
If the kernel hasn't been modified, only the original source needs to be available. But with Android, you usually need to make modifications.

Rather than rebuild the full image each time I make a change to my custom ROM (brunch device), I want only to

- make target

Okay. This looks really good.

A couple of noobish questions. This phones modem/OS version/Country/Pure-style mallarky is damaging my brain, compared to my old Samsungs..

I assume that this file needs to be extracted and each file installed via Fastboot. If so, how many of the files need to be installed. (Do I need Recovery.img, if I would rather not have to reinstall TWRP)

Even better, is it possible to flash this via TWRP ? (asking just in case...)

Can I flash this on top of my RessurectionRom 7.0.. Which was probably based on a MM modem ? Is everything needed in this package, or will the old modem result in no connection ?
