Hi All,

This is my first Oppo Device and i have just received the Indian variant which i suppose is the global variant for this device.

The device is gorgeous in terms of look and feel and i am yet to explore the software which i suppose is the sad part of this device.

None the less, any quick tips & tricks will be highly appreciated :fingers-crossed: I will try and compile it all in this thread.

Greeted with an OTA at start, so hope Oppo keeps improving the user experience :)

Thank you all :highfive:
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] Funk Wizard:
These are some of the useful settings and apps that i installed:

1. Nova Launcher Prime Version:

No need to uninstall the stock launcher, just install Nova > Restore your previous backup and done, The Launcher also works with the built in gestures and no need of a separate app to be installed for the gestures.

2. AccuBattery

As ColourOS does not show battery stats and SOT, i will use this app to monitor my usage.

3. Andromeda & Substratum

I use to heavily theme my devices when it comes to devices like OnePlus but as there is no way to root for now, i use Andromeda & Sunstratum for theaming some of the apps. My setup is usually blacked out and it looks awesome on the amoled screen. The theme i can recommend is Swift Black for a blackout experience.

PS: Avoid Android System and System UI Overlays as the theme is not Oppo compatible but you can blackout the apps.

Very interesting if we can flash global rom via flash tool over Chinese version frimware? Also a question, global comes with google services?

Sir,

Enjoy it...

Do all languages ​​available?
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] wolfgart:
Global Version ?????

Do you have Full Reflash firmware ?
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] avetny:
No is not Global.

Look what i got from OPPO emailing.
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] wolfgart:
let know us if you receive notifications on the status bar
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] Jaybondzewell:
Seems to be simply the name given to the 256gb version when researched
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] Funk Wizard:
Indeed this comes with playstore and play services pre installed just like usual Android phones, screen attached.

Yes most languages are available, screen attached

No its the Indian version so it was pre-installed without any Chinese bloatware :laugh:

Unfortunately that's not possible on colour os so no for now till we get a custom rom.

I've attached the screen for current firmware after the OTA for your reference :svetius:
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] avetny:
Oh boy.....we need that india frimware ?
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] wolfgart:
do you have Italian language too ?
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] cascade128:
And Turkish?
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] Funk Wizard:
I can confirm both Italian and Turkish language support is available on my version :good:
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] cascade128:
Very good...

Thanks man:good:

Still no file here on Indian site ...

for the OP : you should edit your thread because isn't Global variant
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] avetny:
thanks for the link btw
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] wolfgart:
link is still hidden ... I've sniffed that :)

---------- Post added at 06:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:31 PM ----------

i doubt that Oppo kernel will make crossflash from a variant to other one ....

We should request to Oppo developers Team to open this job or better to open bootloader :	devservice@oppo.com

Meizu is usually really more closed that Oppo, but they allow unlocking bootloaders
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] justinswidebody:
So it does have a different model name than pafm00. Interesting. Does it allow you to set more than 5 apps for back ground use in setting?
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] KOLIOSIS:
[MENTION=6143932]Funk Wizard[/MENTION]

IIRC,you purchased this phone on FlipKart.

It appears FlipKart is for those residing in India only,less using 3rd parties to order &/or ship for you,to destinations outside of India.

My question is this:

Do you have any recommendations for those of us outside of India as to ordering this phone & shipping?

Any ideas would be welcome,including other e-sites &/or 3rd parties that specialize in this scenario.

Thank You.
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] Funk Wizard:
Sadly it also has 5 app auto run limit, so no escape from that for now unless we have root, I don't see a workaround.

Well Flipkart does not deliver outside India but you can create a virtual PPO box address and get the device delivered in the US http://www.ppobox.com

I remember i got my OnePlus One this way in early 2014 when the device was not launched in India.

Hope that helps.
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] KOLIOSIS:
Thank you for the information,I appreciate it. :good:

One more question regarding the phone itself:

Along with the Auto run on start/boot,do you also have the 5 app limit on locking apps in "recents"?
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] Funk Wizard:
No I don't have the 5 app lock limit on the recents but I do have 5 app auto startup/boot restriction on my device.

I have locked around 9 apps for now which is the limit includes my social media apps, email, messaging apps and the battery monitor along with allow background running and turned off power saver completely from the battery options and I am not facing any delayed or skip in notifications as far as email or any messaging APPS ARE concerned. Also Nova works fine with gestures and also survives the reboot so I was able to restore my backup and transition well from my OnePlus 6

As its just been a day so I will further test and share the findings with you :good:
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] KOLIOSIS:
[MENTION=6143932]Funk Wizard[/MENTION]

I thought of one other item that was of concern on the Chinese firmware:

If you use a smart watch &/or Bluetooth accessories that require accompanying U/I app(s), do you experience any issues with them on start-up/syncing?

My Samsung Gear S2 only worked properly for one day before the Gear Manager app stopped working, & I couldn't get my Jabra earbuds app to work at all.

Both have a service app that runs in the background, so, that compounded the 5 app limit on start up & even if I could manage to get either working, the RAM Management woulda killed em' off anyway, as the service apps don't have a user interface & was unable to lock in recents..

Hopefully, if you use such apps for accessories, you're not (apparently) limited by the recents lock limit of the Chinese firmware.
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] gpx:
Funk wizard.

the version you have is 256. It the battery 3400 super vooc or 3730 vooc? China would get 256 variant 3400 supervooc so interesting to see what your version supports.

thank you
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] justinswidebody:
Apparently I found and disabled the app that turns background usage off. First night I have been through without my clock widget stopping. I removed a bunch of apps so I have to figure out which one it was
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] avetny:
Oh can u tell me what app is that!?!?
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] justinswidebody:
Use application inspector from playstore, and click on each of these apps and download them first before disabling them. I'm not sure which one it is yet.

1. AssistantScreen.apk

2. Athena.apk

3.OppoFreeFallingMonitor.apk

4.OppoPreventMode.apk

5.OppoTranslationService.apk

6.Prome.apk

7.PromeSms.apk

8.SceneService.apk

It's one of those 9.
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] zhuyonsan:
Excuse me sir, Can I ask you a question please?

Where can I download the full version of this firmware please?

I wanted to know if the indian or Global version has any differences with Chinese version or not.

because Chinese version is customized so badly

Oppo deleted VIEW SIZE in chinese version, cannot use 3rd Launcher like NOVA, developer options also deleted. I want to see if I can flash the indian version on this phone.
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] justinswidebody:
Does it still put up the yellow banner in the status bar when you enable developer settings?
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] Funk Wizard:
Yes it does, I played with a few settings and deactivated it
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] Funk Wizard:
Its 256 gigs with 3730 Vooc.. I couldn't afford the lamborghini one it's more than double this costs.

Its not available for now, I shall keep you posted once oppo uploads the build :good:
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] hookland1:
How you did that bro?
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] zhuyonsan:
Hi, Sir.

Would you please help me to check if Indian version have those options below, if it has, please upload some photos here please. I will just make a complaint to OPPO China.

because they removed some useful Options:

1. Display Size (Chinese version deleted this one, made the phone UI and ICONS look so ugly. If you change it from Developer Options by DPI, it will have some uncertan mistakes)

2. Developer Options (Once you open it, the status bar will become yellow and worning you to close)

3. 3rd Launcher (Chinese version deleted this one, can only use the ugly ColorOS Launcher)

PS: I really dont know why Oppo did these stupid things. Lots of Chinese users are complaing these thing above, but they jst dont care. and the camera is so bad too.
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] prophet558:
1 - No way to change the display size

2- The status bar does become yellow and persists until Developer Options is disabled

3 - Can change the launcher in the Indian firmware. I've tried the Ruthless launcher, video link below.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWhQY1anrl4
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] Funk Wizard:
I meant I tried it but the settings don't stick after you reboot.

1. Yes you can try changing minimum width to 400 will stick but would give you issues after reboot so come back to stock 360.

2. Yes Developer mode once activated does give a warning yellow banner on the status bar until deactivated.

3. Using Nova Launcher instead of stock and I was able to restore by Nova backup taken earlier on my Enchilada.

Hopefully in the coming days we should be able to do more once the launch is global and the development starts :fingers-crossed:
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] hookland1:
Hey very nice nova setup!!!

Would you like to share your backup???

Or tell me where to find all the nevessary?

Regards
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] zhuyonsan:
Yeah. I did the same thing here.

But I prefer to set it as: 480 or 500.

And you cannot reboot your phone.

If you reboot the phone it will have this bug. So terrible...

I saw a lot of Chinese users complained a lot of this.

But since Oppo updated the system. They never cared about this one.

So sad

But In China version. You need to stop the ColorOS launcher. Then you can use Nova or others.

Coz China engineer removed the 3rd launcher.

This was so stupid.

Besides, after that. You can't use gesture anymore.
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] avetny:

[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] zencooler:
Unfortunately this is useless maunal as in the firmware files there is a OFP type of file but the manual is regarding the OZIP file (official OTA update).

It means you can try to flash this firmware using Download Tool only - this method:

[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] rdsreference:
I watched a video online that says you can't install Nova on the device. This might be just for the Chinese version. I really want to buy the phone but if I can't install Nova or the play store it just wouldn't be worth the risk. Is the phone snappy as I'm used to a One Plus 6. Thanks in advance.

for information, on version CPH1875 (french) there is the supervooc on the standard version.

Nova works perfectly
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] shinshoryuken:
Any one know where you can import the french version in the US?
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] dragon-tmd:
Did you try fnac.com? Maybe you need a parcel forwarder in addition.
[Oppo Find X Guides, News, & Discussion] Funk Wizard:
Nova can be installed on both Chinese and Global Version, On the Global its easier as you just install nova from playstore and select it as default launcher and you are done. On the Chinese version you need to uninstall/disable the Stock launcher from ADB package name com.oppo.launcher and then you can use nova normally. Make sur u install Nova before you uninstall the stock launcher :good:

You can wipe it either from the OS by reset menu or also enter the recovery mode and do a full wipe/factory reset :good:

Thank you for confirming and letting us know :good:

Hi guys,

Just got the Note 5 (Global) which is the same as Note 5 Pro (India) except the selfie 20Mp camera...

After upgrading to MIUI 9.5.19.0 I got no 5Ghz connection. Before that it was working.

Did a factory restore and got it working, but after reboot stopped working. The firmware remained 9.5.19.0...

Anyway... did you experienced this?

What are the coolest ROMs for this phone?

Thanks a lot!

Kind regards,

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] njseq:
Hi guys,

Just to tell you that I was able to fix the issue. The steps I took were:

- Did a full restore from Mi Phone Assistant

- Used the steps to restore rom

- Wipe + clean install

- Used the MIUI file from official site: miui_HMNote5HMNote5ProGlobal_V9.5.19.0.OEIMIFA_b370a6bc7e_8.1.zip

This way the 5Ghz network got seen all the time. Even with reboot and then updating apps and stuff

This was the only way.

Something went wrong the Miui internal update that gets 5Ghz first, but then after rebooting it is lost forever.

This might be unnotice for many 2.4Ghz wifi guys, which is 90% of people....

This way it works... the bad is that you need to do a wipe and clean install. But you can restore your backup later on...

Cheers guys!

Hi Guys,

I am having a nightmare proving to TMob that my push e-mail does not function correctly.

Firstly, I have two phones, one a kaiser and a Hermes(tmobile branded).

I need someone to check the activesync logs on the device and look out the heartbeat interval and check if the ping is successful.

Log setting needs to be set to verbose and the logs are found under windows/activesync

The problem I have is on 3G I do not get a successful ping, so the heartbeat stays at the lowest default setting of 480 seconds. After every 480 seconds the devise does a full sync, so I get mail a few minutes late. Now this is not a major problem except for the fact its killing my battery. I might as well turn off push and sync every 10-15 mins!

On 2G, I can get a Heartbeat up to around 1000 seconds and a successful ping, so it works great, except for a couple times a day, both port 80 & 443 get blocked, so activesync fails and I cant use the internet until I cycle 3g back to 2g or turn on airplane mode and back again!

So halfway through the day I check activesync and its failed hours ago, so again pointless.

T-Mob are even tell me that they dont support push email which we all know is crap, one of there tech guys admitted they have a big support area that works with microsoft on supporting push mail, yet know one wants to help.

I have swapped the sim with a Vodafone sim and I can get a heartbeat upto 1800 seconds on both 2G & 3G, and it works perfectly.

Its not a problem with the mail server because the Vodafone sim works great, and I have checked the TCP idle timeout on the firewall, which is set to 45 mins.

I am experiencing this problem on both Hermes and Kaiser.

Are other people experiencing the same? My 3G battery life last a day max because its syncing every 5 mins!

Any views or ideas.

I can't move to Vodafone due to their bad data plans. FYI I am on W&W plus.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mcall_r:
im really not sure about the problem you are facing

but i do know orange do decent microsoft data plans for windows push email via exchange or webmail.

for some reason they do not advertise them

but any sales advisor in an orange shop will tell you.

i know cos i work for them :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] flashflash:
I was with orange from day one of their network and switched to tmob last year due to their lack of decent data plans.

So it may be time to look at orange again. My tmob contract is up in May, so not long.

Thanks for the info.
