Why to connect vivo hardware with OP 6t software

VIVO - hardware

1) better battery (6 hours with audiobook takes 15% less than OP)

2) screen without notch, small notch on the OP 6t is always notch and full screen apps do not use 5 mm screen strip ,

3) 3.5 mm headphones

4) volum buttons on the right edge

5) better fast charging

OP 6t - software

1) friendly for 3-rd party apps

2) exchange system apps (dialer, messenger)

3) easy bootloader unlock

4) easy root

5) zero Chinese bloatware (I bought phone when only cheese version was on the market)

Aw man. I am looking to buy a new phone and found this to be perfect but as with every phone, I always check XDA and well, this is disappointing that Vivo are acting this way. I'd love to compile ROMs for this wonderful device but that would just be a dream...

It seems it was all for nothing.

So unfortunate. Vivo costumers diserved more.
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] Flyers88:
We do. Someone will crack it, hopefully. I asked my brother to buy the Find X when he was in Hong Kong, but was mad expensive there! One of the hottest phones ?
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] xreactx:
I started the petition and kept bugging Vivo... However, they only ignore me. I have since sold my Nex S on eBay and now rocking the Mi Mix 3.
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] shubhamcheetah:
Some hope

The vivoindia guy at facebook seems to listen.. Send him our petition too, hears about fun in this funtouchos and accepts the only solution is root or stock acdroid thing but conversation ended in that he will forward my issue to concerned department. Instagram vivo india replies about how to update again and again whatever you say
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] xreactx:
Good luck with that. I sold my NEX and moved on to the Xiaomi mi mix 3.
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] Flyers88:

[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] smisi:
no, never happend, vivo don´t think to release source code!

If you want to use custom ROMs you need to get away from Vivo.

[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] xreactx:
Can you elaborate further?
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] kumarayush2104:
So I want a person you is ready to play with his phone (test on his phone ,can get a brick)

If yes contact me in telegram [MENTION=7553374]KumarAyush[/MENTION]2104

And if you think by signing petition you will get kernel sources then better sell this and buy a new one, cause vivo don't even give a ****.

And GPL is not enforced in China!!
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] xreactx:
The petition was only to show the number of people wanting to the source code. I know China doesn't follow any laws or regulations outside their country. I sold my worthless Vivo a while back. Good luck getting someone to brick their device.
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] blackinfinity:
Worthless too you yes. Not all people are into rooting and custom roms. Custom roms become more intersting when the manufacture stop realsing new updates. such as Nexus 6P I will put Lineage os on it now I have decided... since google have stop released updates. As For Nex I think there is still atleast 1.5 years of updates and hopefully more. Vivo have done a good job with updates so far...better so then other bigger manufactures like samsung and others. They just need to make sure to keep their promise to release their PIE update before end of December.
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] xreactx:
I get bored with a device that I cannot root... Haha. The Xiaomi mi mix 3 is serving me well. Im actually porting LineageOS right now. I plan to Port Sailfish OS as soon as the mer-hybris has been patched for Android 9.
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] jtotti80:
Does LineAge OS release updates frequently for the Mi mix 3 ? What would be the benefit over the manufacturer software? I've had a custom rom for my s7 and kinda wanna go back to the stock look.
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] xreactx:
LineageOS does not support the Mi Mix 3 at all currently because the kernel source was released a few days ago. The benefit of a custom ROM is you get updates a lot quicker (i.e. nightly, weekly, etc...). Custom ROMs can also have a lot of tweaking/customization settings which you dont typically have in OEM ROMs.
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] jtotti80:
Do you have to flash the os from the beginning to get the updates or you can just update without losing data/apps that you have installed?
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] xreactx:
This is going off topic. I'll PM you about your question.
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] CapraSebi:
You have 9 hra SoT, blazing fast, no lag, everything smooth, games run perfecty....WTF you need the sourcecode for anyway? Wothless?..LOL
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] ramiabouzahra:
Worthless in contrast to other phones. In about a year or two this device will be obsolete in terms of software, and what's going to happen then? Are people going to start signing petitions to get updates? The reason people buy these flagships is so they last. If they want something smooth that lasts two years they might as well have bought an android one. It's not about how many hours you get on battery or anything, it's about spending your money where you get the most out of it.

You won't do that in this device with this price point.

So lets talk about it in 2 years, I mean now it is fast, it lasts...you want to tinker with a phone to make it faster, last longer, this and that...but now you don't need that with this phone, it isnalreqdy performang about as good as it gets..that is what I am saying -> talking about the global version of course.

You can customize it all you want with different launchers...

Also I doubt anyone who is messing around with root keeps the same phone for 2 years, usually these guys want the latest out there...

Flagships -> this cost me 500 something Euros on GearBest, Samsung and the rest would have cost me about 300 Euros more (but for LG G7)

So the fact that you dont have open bootloader or sourcecode for the global version of this awesome phone, IN MY OPINION, should not be a big deal...as it already performas great/outperforms other flagships (battery life/sot as an example...this problem seems a bit like a false pretense to me, thats all
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] thanhdat:
no root limit a lot of things, i just have this phone for 1 month and it's a great phone in almost all directions, now i just want a black theme (pure black to save battery and better for the eyes) and it's almost impossible, i tried Substratum & Andromeda but couldn't make it work, if the phone is rooted then there is no issue. And that's just one month, people buy Android for customization, without root it's very very limited!

[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] STEVE_MARS:
BBK and Vivo never, NEVER, allowed unlock bootloader, so never, NEVER, we can root at this phone. And they never, NEVER, release sourcecode.

Nex S its a great phone, if you want a open source system OS buy a OnePlus.
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] xreactx:
OnePlus is ending their open source program... Xiaomi is the way to to for now. I'm loving my Xiaomi Mi Mix 3! Unlocked the boot loader and the source code is available.
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] kumarayush2104:
Only vivo y51L/y21L/y51/y51A is unlockable at the moment, we got some ROMs but for rooting only cm based ROM can be rooted, nothing else
[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] harveen.oberoy:
it appears we are stuck with the Vivo Nex S and Funtouch OS for now.

Current Change thread is at 1,137 ; don't believe growing it will make them react . I Think for Vivo , Userbase is less for users who Root and customize their phones .

Eventually less percentage of Android folks root their phones , if compared to earlier android releases.

And Company focus is already on the next smartphone.

Harveen

Yeah otherwise they will evade from the market soon because anyone goes for uncommon handset with sd845 is got to be someone with lot of money extra or a tech enthusiast like in the case of pc gamers the second category will never buy it or will buy in hope that it will be released

[Vivo Nex Guides, News, & Discussion] ste27.jah:
Is there someone from Vivo to give us the source code of Vivo Nex S by any means !!! But Vivo should know that If "OnePlus" has become so powerful, especially thanks to his community !!! So Liberé the source code could allow the developer to create any type of thing but always in the right direction to improve the performance of the smartphone, or to change at will his smartphone by a "rom" alternative. So, it is necessary to create a craze is an important community, In my case, it is because of all that I just mentioned that I will never buy a Vivo, even if their next smartphone is at the forefront technology. I will buy another brand because vivo is much too closed on themselves! So "OnePlus" or "Xiaomi" which for me are really the 2 mark that will mark 2019 is the coming years.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pąsîąɲ:
Hi everyone. :) Am new to XDA but we'll aware of how much of a great site it is...

I have a Sony Xperia which totally blacked out some days ago but detected by PC.

The device is just weeks old so I only know a few things about it;

Name: Sony Xperia.

Model: Not sure but can attest it's an XZ or XZs Clone.

SoC: MT6580

It has a code, QRW5 OHD-Q10 and what seems to me like the device's release date OUT-2017-07-11 imprinted behind the phone's screen metal plate inside.

The device is detected as USB Serial Device on Win10 and MTK Com Port on Win 7.

Things I have tried so far;

I downloaded two Sony Xperia XZs clone mt6580 roms and when I tried flashing using SP Flash tool I get an error, screenshot attached.

I also tried read info, read rom and flashing using miracle box but no matter what I try with Miracle box, After the "Downloading Boot8..." What follows is an error, "BootData Err(1): E49AEC_0" screenshot attached.

Hence, may someone please help resolve this and Hopefully revive my device. I'll really appreciate.. :crying::(:(

Well, I know this has been asked numerous times but I haven't seen any worthy response and I am hoping that someone will recommend something worthwhile this time. I am looking for an AIM/MSN messenger that is compatible with the T-Zones proxy. I tried IM+ with port 110 for AIM with no success. I also tried Palringo (loved it), but it keeps disconnecting me and the fact that you have to open the browser to even get it connected is a deal-breaker for me. I need something that is free/cheap and will connect upon device startup without any hiccups.

So far I have tried the following programs under the T-Zones proxy: Agile Messenger (too expensive), IM+ (not connecting), Palringo (pain to connect), Slick (love it but won't connect), Fring (not connecting), Mundu IM (Not connecting), Gizmo5 (hated it, no auto-connect on startup), OctroTalk (not connecting), and finally eBuddy (heard good things about it but haven't been able to get it to work. I selected the Moto Q version from the website since they don't have the Dash listed and it won't allow me to get past the first screen. Maybe someone can tell me which version of brand/model they selected for the app download?).

Thanks in advance...

you might want to try switching the port on IM+ to 25. As for me, I still have to start up my browser just to get my Edge connection going before I start using IM+, but it usually works every time.

Hi, I am using latest nighty build on my xiaomi redmi note 4x (mido) and UI freezes randomly. Affects any apps, launchers etc. Only unfroze part is notification panel and power menu. UI unfreezes after random time or after restart of the device. Also I just found that UI unfreezes after clicking on any notification.

I think this might be the source of the issue (logcat):

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] ramihtp:
Hey guys.

I've done a quick search from the XDA app and I'm not really able to find any specific details on this topic.

Currently running 5.1.9 with xXx rom and Franco Kernel, which means I'm getting spoilt for battery life with around 7+ hrs SOT!

The info that I've been able to find on Android P for OP6 generally seems to indicate around 2.5hrs SOT.

For anyone using the latest beta, can you please share your battery life? Whether it be screenshots or general experience?

The latest beta seems to be pretty stable, but this is the last thing that's stopping me from taking the plunge!

Also, from the research that I've done, custom kernels seem to work with the beta but it breaks wifi? Is this true or am I way off?

Thanks in advance (:
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] JahSam:
For me it's not as good as 5.1.9 with Franco or Flash kernel, but not as bad as 2.5hrs SOT, more like 5 or 6 but with a worse idle drain. I'm with xXx module, viper and I spend way too much time on Youtube...

But if I was you, I'd wait for the next preview since Google pushed the last one beta 10 days ago.
