[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Applied Protocol:
not sold out

hey banggood has them still on sale, it seems that every couple of days they get more and sell them for a good price (promotion sale for 159 us dollars). The company might not be doing so good but in china they are a very solid company doing many other things so going out of business in unlikely IMHO. (add to the fact that a communist country too)

As for another phone the lepro 3 is more expensive but the le 2 is around 100 dollars and a lower processor (equal to the xiaomi that was mentioned before) or the s3 both have snapdragons but with lower specs in general but seem like the idea in terms of quality.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] popoyaya:
Aliexpress have them cheaper. Check Kimovil for cheapest prices...

[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] giaur:
Tons of new LeMax 2 on Aliexpress in stock. There is no problem to buy it, still.

But yes, it's discontinued. If not, show me where manufacturer mentioned this phone on his website. Please give me a link.

Also please prove LE still manufactures any phones, please give me a link to their homepage.

I bought Le Max 2 (4/32) from banggoog. But I believe the phone that they sent me has some sort of hardware problem. I don't mention that fingerprint is terrible, because I guess fingerprint is a common problem with Le Max 2. But no matter what ROM I installed, wifi stops working after some time (about 500 MB or 1 GB transferred with wifi). I checked if there are any bandwidth restriction from ROM, but there is not any. After that threshold wifi starts to drop the download processes. I tried with 26S Chinese stock ROM and Lineage 15.1 ROM. I started to believe this is a hardware issue.

I think banggood and maybe other sellers are selling returned for problems and refurbished Le Max 2 phones.
[LeEco Le Max 2 Questions & Answers] Applied Protocol:
LE is a major chinese TV it has branched out to far (including selling in the us phones) and strapped of cash had a lot of financial problems. The head of the company was replaced and other companies bought some of the stock. The latest shareholder meetings seem to indicate that they are still looking for cash see https://www.reuters.com/article/med...-fund-leeco-subsidiaries-caixin-idUSL3N1RV4FQ however the mobile unit called lemobile has been silent dealing with its own lawsuits see https://www.reuters.com/article/bri...dict-regarding-contract-dispute-idUSL3N1QX42C. With all this thier is no notification of bankrupticy that is where my opnion comes from. They do have multipal patents in thier name see https://www.onscope.com/ipowner/en/...le-information-technology-beijing-co-ltd.html which are not sold off as of yet (thats what it seems anyway). IMHO LE over produced phones and that is what we have but I do not know if they are still producing the phones to stay alive. A we know it still is a good phone after2 years (ok no NFC and wireless charging). I did not verify what is being sold in stores in china but the website lemall.com only has TVs. Still no company backing anything.

I have a 1 year old pixel 128gb.

I am getting terrible battery life of 3 hrs SOT on stock rom (unrooted). I know battery life subjective to how we use the phone. But i dont play games or any heavy work. Very less usage of phone.

Please advise me a custom ROM which has better battery life like atleast 4 -4.5 hrs SOT. Or else tell me that whether all pixel ROMs have same battery life.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] mromblad:
Are you in LTE, or 1x/3g area? Perhaps your signal is weak and phone is draining trying to find the signal.

If that's the case, no custom rom would help that I don't think, its a service issue at that point.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] nokiasatyam:
I am on lte only......i have tested the mobile without sim card also.........battery backup is low SOT is around 3.5 hrs

I think some problem with battery or some stock rom issue.

Please tell me what is your SOT

same problem, any solution on XDA available?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Scoop003:
I'm in the same boat, but from what I'm reading I'm probably just gonna have to install a new battery as the batteries tend to die out around 18-24 months. I know mine was bought new when the phone first came out in October 2016. So I'm looking into that route. ifixit has a guide up on how to replace it.

**FireHound**

You can try FireHound ROM. I am pretty satisfied with the non-gaming performance and SOT.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] omky_b4u:
how much SOT? can u post screenshot

thanks in advance
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] thrutheeyes:
good thread, I want to jump into a custom rom for this reason also but not sure which to go for.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Arju:
Personally I prefer running Dirty Unicorns. This is a screenshot I took right now. I've been watching series, video chatting and browsing the web and youtubeing today. So with straight usage I usually get 6 hours of SOT. On a normal day (20 hours of usage gives me around 4,5 hours of SOT). I have also flashed Flash kernel and running it on stock settings. Screen brightness is around 20% most of the time and when I'm outdoor I use high brightness mode when needed. I don't use battery saving mode but I'm sure if I use that when the battery percentage gets low and if I use the smart pixel feature that DU offers then I could probably get out more SOT. The rom I'm using can be found on the discord channel on my signature. A new build will be posted this weekend, usually on Saturdays by shagbag913.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] omky_b4u:
Before custom ROM how was your SOT on stock?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Arju:
Probably cut down an hour on SOT on stock. Flash Kernel does a lot though. So I would say stock + flash kernel gave me better SOT than only stock. DU + flash kernel gives me more. It all depends on usage. I don't game but does consider my usage pretty average.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] omky_b4u:
thanks ...which kernel along with stock ROM gave you max SOT
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Arju:
I haven't tried all kernels. The only one I have tried is Flash kernel and it gives you a bit more SOT as opposed to stock. Other kernels have more stuff that you could manually tweak and flash kernel keeps it simple and works great right out of the box.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers] snacky20:
Hi,

I was playing with 4k video recording using open camera, Note 5 global non rooted version with original ROM.

I see that video bitrate is a bit low and sometimes I see compression artifacts.. it's around 41Mb/s for video.

Is there any way to use HEVC or use higher bitrate to record 4k.

Comment: for example my old OneplusOne is recording in more then 60Mbit/S in 4k mode

Xiaomi 4k+ more then 100Mb/s

Wondering if someone was trying to hack it... I set bitrate in open camera but nothing is changing it.. still the same default stock value in final file.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers] BigMango:
Interesting thread.

Sorry if I don't have an answer but a question: does EIS (image stabilisation) work correctly when enabled in open camera or are the videos still shaky?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers] snacky20:
Yeah eis works in 4k
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers] BigMango:
This is great news. Thanks.

Just to make sur : This is on the 5 plus = Indian note 5. (Not the Indian note 5 pro = normal note 5 which is dual camera and officially does have eis).

(because another thread says you need to root and install camera api2 for it to work).
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers] snacky20:
I had italian version (assuming global ROM) from Amazon.it

4GB/64GB version black

from what I checked in few apps just open camera had EIS option in 4K and it indeed works, I was comparing videos with and without EIS enabled

just wondering about bitrate, had no chance to test with fv5 and setting higher bitrate cause i sold the phone, waiting for new unit so will test it again...

ideally would be to have EIS+4k and more than 60Mbit bitrate
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers] BigMango:
Thanks for the feedback. Hope someone will answer you regarding bitrate.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers] BigMango:
I see in the open camera settings (video section) you can manually set the bitrate up to 100 mbps.

Have you looked at this?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] DiamonDX100:
Hi, I need some help with my device redmi note 4. Recently I was able to install TWRP and root, and with that I installed one of those hacking tools, game killer and game hacker. I gave them root permission and accepted some of the things they needed, until they asked for the floating icon thing, where I went to all the permissions of the application and I didn't found it, and when I saw that I rembered that, even before I unlocked the bootloader and all, I never had the floating messenger bubble, that I had in older devices. Does that mean that the MIUI I have right now, that it is development ROM MIUI 9 8.5.25, does not support those floating icons? And if it does support, how do I activate it?

I would really want to know this, thanks in advance.:)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] trjons:
and back....is there one?

I've found some CABs that put an icon in the system tray to rotate the screen all the way around but none that just switch it from Portrait to Landscape and then back to portrait.

Does anyone know of an app to do just this?

[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] Mr.AungBeginner:
I attach the build prop from mi 5(Gemini). Which is rooted via magisk 16 and I extracted the build prop file. As I'm not a developer, but very active user. So I let you guys see the new MIUI 10 build.prop if you can do something with this. Thanks in advance.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] lukypuie:
The build.prop is just a set of values, I don't think you can "extract features" since if they are present, those are built into that specific rom, even if you put that "new" values on another rom, you won't add any extra functionality (Example is Camera 2 API, you can enable it into the MIUI but it is just disabled by default, you're not "adding a feature", just enabling it)
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] Mr.AungBeginner:
Okay thanks, so in order to retrieve new features from that version which file do I need to access? Can you show me!

Ok, so I'm new here and I'm having problems updating my Mi5 32Gb to newest nightlies of Lineage OS 15.1

Hi guys

My device is Mi4W 3G/16G. That morning i got up and turned on my phone but the screen was black and could not turn it on.Then I used MiSuitePC to fastboot.It automatically downloaded and flash Rom (seem it was China Rom but my device used Global Rom). But after flashing the device didn't boot up. So I tried to flash Rom by test point .It was successfully flashed by test point. But i still can't turn it on. I put it on charge, the red Led blinks. Connects and then disconnects when using data cable to connect with PC. The connect-disconnect loop goes on for as long as it isn't unplugged. Now, i cannot enter fastboot mode or recovery . Does it has hardware issues such as Pin, main,.. ?. Anyone encountered this problem?

Thanks.

[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HQuinn:
Update:

Did a rollback to stock recovery, so all is solved

---------------------------------------------------------

I've upgraded to Oreo, Android 8.0, on my Huawei NXT-L29. Everything seems to be working just fine, except for my Google Chrome bookmarks widget.

After browsing the internet for hours, I haven't found any solution. All posts are about not being able to sync bookmarks and I'm having no problem with that. They sync just fine.

My problem is the widget. After adding it to the home screen, it syncs all my bookmarks, but the widget immediately freezes after changing screens. Even swiping to another home screen freezes the widget, making the links unaccessible.

I've tried many other apps, updated Play Services after clearing cache and other accounts. All my attempts were unsuccessful. One app flashed a notification that my android device does not support browser bookmark access.

Any solutions?

------------------

Additional info:

My phone was rooted - both Unlocked Bootloader and FRP Unlocked - before and after successfully installing Oreo. However, after logging in to my Huawei ID (necessary for using Theme Manager), it unrooted itself. Can't get into TWRP anymore, only stock recovery. I could start over from scratch, but possibly run into the same issue after signing in with my Huawei ID. Could this be related to my problem?
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Adam O'Blivion:
I've been the happy owner of a LG G5 (RS988) until yesterday. My troubles began when the screen started to act finicky anytime I touched it. It got so bad that I couldn't even type out the 4 digit keycode before being sent back to the lock screen. In addition, the power/standby button on the back stopped working.

My last attempt at troubleshooting was to remove then replace the battery. This turned out to be a bad decision because now I can't turn the phone back on.. due to the faulty power button.

Any suggestions on where to go from here? At this point, recovering the data from the phone's internal drive is WAY more important to me than saving the phone.

Thanks.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] megatron_lives:
I have had issues with the power button that have been solved by cleaning it with a cotton bud (Q-tip for Americans) and isopropyl alcohol. Soak the cotton bud in the alcohol, and rub it on the power button, ensuring some drips between the power button and it's casing. This works for me when my power button stops working.

You could try rebooting the phone from fastboot - but you may have needed to have USB debugging enabled in developer options, or you may not need it :)

Hold vol down and plug your phone into a PC - it should boot into fastboot. then on a terminal (I use minimal ADB and fastboot (https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2317790) type 'fastboot reboot' . Hopefully this should boot your phone ?!?

good luck

Does it matter if it's 70% or 90% iso?

Thanks. I'm gonna try all this stuff when I get off work.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] megatron_lives:
I think I have observed people use 70% but ideally you want the highest percentage to avoid getting any water residue in the button. I have used 100% myself as I am a chemist and have access to solvents.

Best of luck
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Pphish20:
I was having the same issue with my H850... Thought I was going to have to get a new phone.

Went on YouTube and saw this guy use rubbing alcohol and a qtip used a crazy amount (with battery out of course) and haven't had an issue since!
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Adam O'Blivion:
I cleaned off the power/standby button, as recommended, and got it to work long enough to backup my files. Although, I can tell by the way it's running that this cleaning won't hold up. I'm more than happy just recovering the songs I had stored.

Thanks again
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] megatron_lives:
No worries. Glad you got it working at least
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] Adam O'Blivion:
I forgot to check the percentage on the bottle, but could using 70% instead of 90 or 100 really make the difference between a permanent or temporary fix?

After you dip the q-tip, do u want the swab fairly soaked, just so it's not dripping with alcohol, or a bit dryer?

I'm trying to figure out where I went wrong. Whether it was too low an iso %, too dry a tip, not enough cleaning of the button....

It worked just long enough to turn the phone back on.

Thanks.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] megatron_lives:
I have only used 100% ipa and ensured the cotton bud was soaked (not dripping) but did squeeze it on the power button to ensure the alcohol slid through the button edges. I would assume a small volume of water would not be a good idea and might contribute to the power button failing again.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] adam79:
I bought 91% Isopropyl today; none of the local stores had anything higher. I left the qtip more soaked in the iso and swabbed around the button. This time it work for a little bit longer than last time.

Did you only have to clean it once or multiple times?
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] megatron_lives:
I have to clean it regularly, or at least when I feel it not responding correctly. So this is not a permanent fix

Hi all,

I've just talked to [MENTION=6998569]Harry8242[/MENTION] and he eventually decided to continue his work on Vibe K5 and K5 Plus, despite the bad comments and repeated demands on his rom about bug fixes, new features or ETAs.

So basically what he said is :

A new feature is coming : SIM disabling (on LOS 14.1 for now, but soon on Oreo)

He will keep updated his AFH (for those who will ask, a little research will do you good, and is the basis of XDA ;):D)

He will read suggestions, but not take in account all of them

He will never again post on XDA to share or notify for updates

That said, for those who would want to reply, I would suggest this POST to be a "thank you" post to [MENTION=6998569]Harry8242[/MENTION] ;):good:
