Thank you guys for sugestions but non of that combinations helped. I made a clean install of beta 17 and set big cluster to conservative governor and it feels like a huge improvement.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] xocomaox:
Most users don't understand how USB-C audio works and thus claim a phone is DOA without a headphone jack (a phone which, by the way, has no Hi-Fi DAC to even take advantage of studio-quality headphones).

Storage is another topic most users don't understand. External storage (via SD card) is vastly inferior to UFS internal storage. OnePlus is going for speed and overall user experience. They don't want the possibility of slow SD storage ruining this. That's why they offer large internal storage options at a very reasonable hike in price ($50 for twice the storage).

What about the battery? How long does it last?

Thanks in advance
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] 3lMghraby:
with RF and PE oreo

I get at least 7 hrs of screen on time

but no games

and on wifi with light theme not dark

I got similar results with RZ and OOS but the battery there was less than AOSP

also the kernel should be used for couple of days to learn your usage pattern and improve battery
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] DoR3M3:
Just in case some reads my previous comments, not sure what I was thinking about when I said 6T with Glass back, that's the 6, not the 6T.

Anyhow Bling aside, I'm surprised no one is bringing up the subject of ---> OnePlus Analytics! :eek:

These apps are still in the 5T, and I've not read anything to confirm this is stopping.

I certainly hope from the information that is out there, a supposed outcry of community that OnePlus is knocking this off!

Until there's confirmation on this, I wouldn't want to buy a 6T and neither should anyone else.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Tiz92:
I will wait for the 7. SD 855 and so are a big upgrade.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] xocomaox:
I'm not as interested in the SoC upgrade as much as the upgrade for UFS 3.0 storage speeds. This is what will really make the OnePlus 7 and other 2019 flagships fly.

I bought a re-sold a Pixel 3 and kept my 5T. I'm going to pass on the 6T and wait. The phone is really just excellent and other phones appear to only be minor upgrades. Perhaps phones have gotten so good I need to wait 1.5 years instead of 1 year now.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Macusercom:
It depends on whether the DAC happens inside the phone or with the external hardware. My issue with it is that some manufacturers use different adapters because of it. So some just rewire the analog output and others like the Pixel 2/3 need the DAC inside the dongle.

I do not like the fact that I can't charge it simultaneously and that my 90 degrees headphone cable is 5 cm away. With the required DAC in the cable it gets very thick and that annoys me.

I wish everyone would use one standard again but Apple refuses to use USB-C so USB-C headphones (without a dongle) are a stupid decision too. And I wish Bluetooth audio would have a better standard than SBC. AAC is now the best choice since Android 8 supports it. aptX (HD) isn't compatible with iPhones...

It comes down to standards. Everyone agreed to use the 3.5 mm jack and you could use your headphones everywhere. Now some are compatible with certain devices or else you can't use it or have a worse quality. It should be less complicated than that and I wouldn't care too much about it.

Theoretically headphones with an integrated DAC could provide a better experience as the manufacturers could equalize it to meet their expectations. With the headphone jack you rely on the DAC of your phone. Like having a perfect linear pair of headphones and then the worst DAC ever made. That will degrade your sound quality and the only thing you could do is buy another phone. Moreover, in desktop/laptop scenarios and professional audio you simply do not use internal DACs due to distortion added by other hardware components. External DACs have a better shielding which is great though.

Lastly, the only other fear I'd have (especially with Lightning ports) is that Apple could disable certain headphones if the company doesn't pay for the MFi licensing. So they could simply disable it. That's mainly concerns Apple. It gives you control over accessories. That's why USB-C is the only way to go for me if I really have to.

Just my opinion though :)

Not being funny mate, but if you are that concerned get yourself a decent camera for these awesome shots your looking for. I look at a smartphone as a handy camera you always carry around, if you had a pixel 3 or iPhone xs or whatever you would still be picking faults I'm guessing.

I too eyeballed the find X, but the thickness is a no deal for me, I'm using a 5T with a dbrand matrix skin and I don't think I have encountered a phone that feels so thin to use. That is a never mentioned plus side of OnePlus devices.

I hear you, vibration strength is poor. Can anybody and use if it's better in the 6? Or hopefully they will maybe sort that going forward.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] DoR3M3:
Not trying to spamm/troll here, but it would be great if this community addressed the Topic of --> OnePlus Analytics.

So we could figure out what the frick this company is doing with these apps, that can pull all the basic device info out of the phones, not to mention supposedly your other, suppose to be private information...

What's the point of anyone even further discussing buying these phones unless people get to the bottom of this.

Hmm

I clean flash custom ROMs because I don't trust any company. Google does that too all the time. Doesn't make it right but you gotta pay the price if you buy cheap phones. That's why open-source is a no brainer for me.

I ended up going with a Pixel 3 XL and the vibration motor is sooo much better.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] DoR3M3:
Custom Rom hardware support is always problematic, unless a company has crappy firmware, and the DEV of a Custom Rom puts out better hardware support which can/does happen.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Macusercom:
I think it's the little things that are important to me. E.g. in LineageOS you can set app permissions. If I deny location access in Android the app will tell me to enable it or quit the app. With LineageOS I can enable it but still say no every time as LOS has a second layer. And most importantly: no annoying bloatware.

I don't want to buy a phone that doesn't support LOS and so if the 6T gets support for it I will buy it. But I won't use OnePlus' OOS spy ROM.

[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] OhioYJ:
Same here, I don't buy any device (tablets included) that don't have Lineage support. When I bought my 5T it Lineage was in the works, but it sat in the box and I continued to use my Nexus 5X until it was LOS was fully working.

The 6T not having a headphone jack is a problem for me, but as long as it gets Lineage support I may go ahead and still pick it up. The 6 still doesn't have official Lineage support.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] preference:
I know that the credit is amazing but you're locked out of your phones bootloader for potentially two years unless you pay it off. That's what I've heard elsewhere. If I pick up the phone, I'm getting it directly from OnePlus. I apologise for any misinformation

I have problem with my wireless headset which using Bluetooth 4.1

It is working normally even if i am 8 meter far from my phone,but when i put it in my back pocket pants and begin to walk the sound begin to distorted after a while until it become too much annoying.

I try two powerful wireless headset with same result.

If i put it in front pocket pants,it is widely less distortion and sometimes it is smooth,but it is in uncomfortable when walking due to big size of the phone itself.

My question is how it works perfectly if it is 8 meter far from the phone,and distorting if it is inside my back pocket pants so maximum 0.85 meter??

Is this problem related to the keys in my other pocket?or the belt for my pant?

Any idea??:confused:

First do 'fastboot flash boot twrp.img'.

It will fail but it will give you 'sending 'boot_a' (45048 KB)...' or 'sending 'boot_b' (45048 KB)...' in the logs.

The do 'fastboot flash boot_a twrp.img'. or 'fastboot flash boot_b twrp.img'. according to the 'sending' partition you get. If you get 'sending 'boot_b' . do the same 'fastboot flash boot_b twrp.img'. Don't do the opposite 'fastboot flash boot_a twrp.img'.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] StardustGeass:
As I promised, here is my review on using HP Elite Lap Dock X3 with my Note 9 :D

First thing first, the connection quality.

I don't understand why, but it sometimes need several times of reconnecting my note 9 to the lap dock to be recognized properly. Sometimes, my phone recognizes it as only a HDMI monitor, so the keyboard and touchpad doesn't work. On other time, it sometimes shows up in a not FHD screen (it appears blurry and resolution is very low(. Both of this problem can be fixed by reconnecting the phone (sometimes, several times).

Secondly, the audio.

THIS is my main problem and hesitation on using my hp lap dock with a dex phone. On my rooted, Oreo Samsung S8, the audio just doesn't want to output to the HP Lap Dock. And.... It happens as well with my note 9.

Even worse, is the audio rerouting option. When I used my rooted S8, I can reroute the audio output to my S8 using Samsung's Smart Switch app. On my Note 9, when I checked the smartswitch options, there is only a HDMI output and USB Audio output. There is NO option to reroute the audio back to the phone.

*Just a note, my HP Lap Dock audio itself is working. I tested it by connecting it with my Surface Go and it can output sound pretty nice.

Third, the USB-C connector on the right.

Yep, just the same experience with my rooted S8, it doesn't work. Such a bummer.

Well, so far what I've reviewed is the bad side of using HP Lap Dock as dex compaion.. But what are the pros?

First of all, portability.

Well, actually not that portable since this lap dock is quite huge and you'll be getting a better laptop in this size using windows laptop or macbook. But, if you're in a pinch of money after getting sucked dry when pre-ordering your note 9, or you just wanted to show off note 9 capabilities, this is it.

Secondly, the screen and keyboard.

Well, basically this lap dock have a very good screen and keyboard. If you're planning on writing a lot of thing on the go, you can use this.

Personally, eve though I just bought a Microsoft Surface Go, I still prefer the android-dex for my main daily usage. The reason is, android just seems to be a lot practical to use (open youtube? just click the app, no need to type in the browser). The surface go only sits there to ensure whether there is some things that need to be done using .exe applications or complex writing using Microsoft full-fledge office 365 suite.

Hopefully, this review is helpful for anyone planning to use it :D

*For the record, my hp lap dock system version is at 8.0.11.0.

Anyone using different system version may encounter difference in experience.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] StupidNoob#317:
Thanks for posting the review! I have messed around a little with my wife's Note 9 on my HP lapdock and I will post a review as well on this thread based on my own personal experience.

By the way, how do you know what system version your lapdock is using?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] StardustGeass:
It is shown when you turn on the lap dock, and it shows whether to connect via USB c (on the left) or wireless display (on the right). On the right side, there is a lap dock software under the lap dock ID on wireless mirroring :)

I shot a quick raw video of me using my Note 9 with the HP lapdock. The speakers work great and the usb-c ports on the right are also functional. Also worth mentioning is that when I receive a phone call, the game music pauses and the audio re-routes to my bluetooth headset. When I am finished with the call, the sound routes back to the lapdock!

Does anyone know if the lapdock charge with a phone charger (QC 3.0 or PD) via the USB-C?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] StardustGeass:
Have tried several chargers (PD 30, 45W chargers and power banks from several manufacturers), still can't find one that charges the lapdock...

Thats a huge dealbreaker for me. Will probably have to return it. The power brick and cable is so insanely bulky kinda takes the point away of a compact device

Well, for me, I just treat the power brick as my main phone charger as well.. that way, I'm not that bothered by it (since i always carry a backpack to work)..
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] fbloise:
My experience have been completely negative :(

The lap dock first I ensured to have the latest firmware T0059 - but the issue is a black screen and constantly rebooting is persistent.

Tried with several devices (Huawei P20 Pro, 2 Galaxy Note 9 -both Exynos, and the HP Elite X3 phone). Only with the Elite phone it worked as expected, keyboard worked fine too.

With Android devices, it was not working and although you could see the keyboard working fine, the screen kept between showing the HP logo then black screen the rebooting. The Touchpad did not work in this mode, only the keyboard and it was reported as an ITE Device(8595) by the keyboard options.

This is all tested using the wired mode and connecting via the usb-c port on the left of the lap dock. Tested also with several cables, some of them confirmed to be Thunderbolt USB-C 3.1 (Gen 2).

In wireless casting, using the Smart View option, I was able to push the video output through Miracast. But the keyboard, although working, it made double key-presses. The Touchpad did not work in this mode either. Audio output worked fine. Funny that connecting an external keyboard worked in this mode and it didn't do any double keypresses.

To make it sort of manageable, in my Exynos Note 9 at least, I had to:

-Push the video wirelessly via miracast & Smart View.

-Connect a keyboard (wireless and wired, doesn't matter) to the Lap dock

-Connect a mouse (I tried wireless) directly to the Note through a USB-C to USB-A adaptor.

The experience was okaish in this wireless mode. But still unhappy. I wish there was a way to debug it.

My test were all with Exynos Note 9, and some comments in Youtube suggest it could be that this only works with Snapdragon based Note 9. I have yet to try with a snapdragon device.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Accessories] StardustGeass:
For the note, I personally use an exynos one as well, and the wired mode does work (except for audio and USB ports)..

I think there are still unknown factors that made some of them work, while others don't...
