[Huawei MediaPad M5  Guides, News, & Discussion] Michaelflat1:
It is very similar to a PC, well a linux running PC. Yes there are a few limitations, but you can run alternate OSes on android devices, eg. remember the Ubuntu on your phone type thing, that didn't last long because driver support doesn't really exist for components in your phone.

It's a shame it isn't i suppose, but then again i made the decision to buy a tablet over a windows laptop. I can't really argue which one is better, since we could be here all day. Sometimes it's nice to have a mobile device, others it is a crushing limitation. Thankfully i got my bootloader unlock code before it was too late!

What a shame

Android 9 and no Netflix PIP . Can't believe that I choose wrongly with the M5 ... There's a lot of potential but lack of interest by developers ( Netflix to be specific) and Huawei itself.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] keby7:
My superrom rooted v20 keeps crashing just recently out of nowhere. I forgot what the first crash screen is but I had a green, purple,yellow or black crash screens with "TZ crash", "secure watch dog bite" and "kernel crash" header? It is now stuck in boot sequence or crashed after a few minutes if I get pass it.

I'm a noob in rooting so I just followed the steps from here and managed to root my original H910PR with no problem previously. Forgot where I got the link but then I flashed it with the Super-4.0-H91010u.

I can't even get through TWRP, it turned off suddenly a few times and now I'm hit with a yellow RPM crash screen. The phone wont even start right now after I pull out and put the battery (70% last I checked) back in, even with my new, barely 1 week ZeroLemon 10k. Not responding any button presses either.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] runningnak3d:
Hopefully you did the optional step in that process and backed up your phone before rooting it.

If you did, you should be able to get to fastboot (with the phone off, hold vol down and plug in the USB cable). Once in fastboot:

fastboot flash aboot_COMXX aboot

fastboot flash xbl_COMXX xbl

fastboot flash laf_COMXX laf

I think you get the idea. Repeat for every file that was dumped. Replace the XX with the actual com number. Once your phone is back to stock, see if you have a problem.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] keby7:
The problem is I only understand about half of what you wrote up there. I think I followed your previous tutorial step by step, so I think I did all the optional steps also. Tried to go into fastboot like you said but can't get the phone to responding, its like there's no power even when the battery is plugged in. Did I missed a step for this fastboot? Should the PC running anything for the fastboot to open? Currently trying to read back the previous tutorial and on the fastboot process.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Geekser:
I used my wife's Note 9 (Snapdragon - ATT ) and ran ANTUTU Benchmarks for grins and giggles and the phone got a score of about 284,000 - very respectable.

When I received my N960F - a Note 9 from Clove in the UK, I ran the same Benchmark from ANTUTU and the best score I could get was 236,000 - a HUGE difference.

I really expected more parity between those phones and wonder why there is such a big difference? Is the Exynos Process that far behond Snapdragon's latest?

(I know these benchmarks don't mean much - but just the same, after spending nearly a grand on this phone, I would have expected better)

Any thoughts?

What are your thoughts on battery life between the 2?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Geekser:
great question but I haven't used either long enough to really get a sense for it - On first blush, battery seems similar on both - I can easliy get thru an entire day without charging - though I find myself automatically placing my phone in my wireless charger from time to time because I have always had to - I think I can break myself of that habit though - will play around a bit more on both and see how they fair in a comparison of daily use....
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Virgo_Guy:
Did Samsung work on the kernel sources to improve the Exynos 9810's efficiency and performance to be on par with Snapdragon 845 ?

The answer is "NO".
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Limeybastard:
Looks like the the tides have turned recently in favor of the snapdragon chipset.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Geekser:
I know and I don't understand why. I think Exynos could be as good or better than the Snapdragon - but for some reason - it lags behind...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Virgo_Guy:
Could the Exynos 9810 be better in the s9/s9+/Note 9? - Probably to an extent working on the kernel but would still be behind the SD.

Snapdragon Note 9 : Will Allow you to Play FASTER Gamecube/Wii/PSP Emulation. But Will not allow you to install custom roms or root your device.

Exynos Note : Will not play gamecube/Wii Games Smoothly but will allow you to install custom rom.

Personally if I didn't want Wii/Gamecube emulation, I would have easily bought exynos.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] mikey_sk:
Ok in synthetic benchmarks such as antutu the 845 gets a higher score because of the better graphics processor. When it comes to the cpu side of things the 9810 is at least as good and sometimes better.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] soraxd:
dolphin emulation on both chipsets recently took a massive jump forward. exynos included.

you can root on international snapdragon variants of the Note 9. I believe China has unlocked snapdragon. I've heard chit chat mentioning Canada as well, fact check these yourself tho.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] high_voltage:
Aha, but then the real world performance of the sd is far better than the exynos + it's more efficient leading to a lot better battery life + the modem is better. Then you throw in a GPU that is literally another class in a phone that potentially will be used also for gaming and this year a lot of heavy games were released with vastly different experience on the two variants (last year samsung got a free pass on their lossy g71 mp20 as no heavy games released, not the case this year and it's shaping more to release frequently in the future).

g72 mp18 can't even come close to the PREVIOUS year sd 835 in real world gaming. sd 845 benefits heavily from the note 9 cooling as it had some thermal restrictions and sustain performance was close to the sd 835 one (still far better than g72 mp18 sustain for both snapdragons), while the mali GPU doesn't benefit that much from the new cooling, the GPU is just slow.

In Europe we actually pay more for that phone, 1000 euros are not equal to 1000 us dollars, all that while we get a SOC that is between midrange and highend instead of the highend one that is for the US market. Previous years the exynos was better (galaxy s7 for example), but the difference between the two variants were never that big as this year.

Edit: check the other real world benchmarks like pcmark, browser benchmarks and so on - the sd variant wipes the floor with the exynos. :) Still, benches are not all, sadly the real world difference is also there and noticeable.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] mikey_sk:
Again if you look at the geek bench scores for cpu (android central, did a comparison) the cpu side of the exynos 9810 outperformed the 845. I would agree when factoring in the 845 graphics the overall score of the 845 is better. Again you would be VERY hard pressed to notice the difference in the real world. And there is zero lag on either of these variants I found.

I know people in the industry and alot of the perceived difference is due to the scheduler for the 9810 not being as optimised as for the 845. Rule on the street is that Sammy will redress this soon with an update.

Also the woolfson DAC on the exynos provides a better quality audio experience and fuller sound stage than that of the aqstic DAC on the 845.

Again the difference is slim. I've noticed zero lag even on fortnite.

Reast assured both chips ate brutes. After all both the 845 and 9810 are currently fabricated/manufactured by samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] high_voltage:
It's a lot more complicated than a simple scheduler and if it was going to be fixed, it was going to be fixed for the note 9 launch as it's a good few months from the s9/s9+ release with the same SOC (that is a lot in the fast moving forward mobile industry). Most likely they won't do any improvements even in future major android releases. Geekbench score is peak performance on burst load tasks, it's not counting task migrations, frequency scaling, cores hotpluging and so on. There are good articles for the 9810 in anandtech, how it can be improved, why it can not be improved beyond given point, but they are kinda techy and not easy to read if you are not into it.

tl:dr The CPU cores are great, but has some flaws and everything around them is sh*t (sorry for my language, but yeah). The DAC is great tho, this is totally true.

For the GPU part there are a lot of materials about adreno 630 vs g72 mp18 with actual stats like max fps, min fps, FPS stability and so on. Fortnite will run ok, but on the sd845 it can run maxed out fluently (for the most part). Also when one spend 1000 euro, he should think about future proving and gaming is moving fast forward this year. If you game on your phone, it's kinda a bummer to settle for lower GFX settings on one of the most expensive phones this year, if you want smooth experience.

Not saying the exynos is super bad, it's not, but it's not on par with the sd845.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] mikey_sk:
Again you would be hard pressed to notice the difference. Both variants are perfectly fine so everyone buy either with confidence.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] michelino159:
No rows written here reflect the reality. Just snapdragon users happy with their chipset. Another report on the S9 test that is outdated. The smallest SOT with exynos is 7h with only mobile data. Who does not know how to use an android or uses it as a playstation is his job. For a normal user it's great.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] sefrcoko:
I don't even have to do that with my Note 8. You can likely squeeze more out of it, but a lot depends on usage patterns of course.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] @rbiter:
What strikes me as odd is people keep comparing Exynos to snapdragon CPUs. There's a lot more to SOCs than CPUs and GPUs. ISP and DSP chips. The DAC. You also need to consider the modems. Qualcomm has been at it a longer than Samsung in the modem category. LTE bands should also be considered as that influences reception. Some countries have better LTE bands than others, not to mention carrier aggregation. I'm quite sure there is some variance in the displays too and that little variance could have a bigger part to play since the display is the biggest battery hog. And theming. If you optimize your phone to take advantage of OLED's pixels you can enhance your battery life there easily.

Blaming the CPU and GPU because of which benches better is probably a moot point here. Android has matured greatly the last couple of versions and it shows on the cheapo phones I have at home. Much smoother than some of the older flagships I have owned. This thread reminds me of yesteryear when Apple fanboys praised Apple for how great battery life they got when their screens, resolutions and batteries were much smaller. It actually plays out true still to this day albeit minus the smaller screens. Still smaller battery and lesser resolution. The initial battery life from the new iPhones I am seeing are jaw dropping. And not in a good way because that $1000+ isn't buying you much besides the newest model.

If you're getting less than expected battery life on the note9 chances are it's a rogue app, bad reception, white out theme, lot of games you're not mentioning, rogue synchronizing or you're doing it wrong or some combination of those. I highly doubt there is huge battery difference between Exynos and Snapdragon processing but possibly modem power consumption.

someone wrote that exynos have Samsung sensor in camera and SD is with Sony sensor. Any difference? I've red that Exynos note 9 have a little bit better pictures then SD... thoughts?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] MILJANN:
Both sensors have a 3-layer stacked design – a CMOS sensor with the image pixels, another for the image signal processor (ISP) and finally a DRAM chip for those coveted 960fps videos. But the organization is different.

Samsung has been catching up to Sony. Sony was the first to introduce a 2-layer design in 2014, followed by Samsung’s version in 2016. Then Sony made a 3-layer sensor 2017 and Samsung made one in 2018.

Sony experimented with a copper direct bond interconnect between the CMOS and the ISP layers in the 2014-2016 period (this allows for higher density chips compared to the classic approach used in the 2017-2018 image sensors).

PS. You can use AIDA64 to check which sensor is in your Galaxy N9, just look at the Camera ID.

[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ggutenberg:
Awhile back I unlocked my bootloader without backing up my DRM partition. At that time, I installed a stock kernel with DRM fix, and life was good.

Since then, I've installed LineageOS. Unfortunately, the camera sucks, and there's no DRM fix available. Even OpenCamera limits me to 8MP instead of 23MP.

What are my options for going back to the stock camera + DRM fix? I don't care if I keep Lineage, but I'm not sure how to acquire/restore the stock rom without the DRM partition, and can't find a good step-by-step guide here.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] ragga57:
My LG G2 just died and I'm looking for a replacement. LG V30 (EU version) looks pretty good, but I have a few questions.

Just like with my G2 I would have to get rid of LG software and flash lineage but that means no lg "features" and here lies the question.

Is there anything gamechanging I would lose?

From what I've read the quad DAC doesn't work but I dont have any audiophile grade headphones so regular snapdragon DAC should get the job done just fine, but what about the camera.

The main reason I'm looking into this phone is the camera, waterproofing and heaphone jack (S8 has also these features but lineage is broken on that thing and I won't touch touchwiz).

So how is the camera on non stock roms? Do I still have acces to the wide angle one and other goodies?

If there is anything else I'm missing please let me know.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] zacharias.maladroit:
You can install both GCam builds one for the main camera and one for the wide angle camera, so you have 2 different apps for each back camera.

As for the quad dac - you can use it:

Thanks. I'm pleasently surprised by that DAC. Thought I would have to give that up for sure.

2 apps for camera is annoying but as long as it takes good photos it doesn't really matter. Is the camera still good on aosp roms?
