[LG V20 Questions & Answers] JestersDance:
Tragedy has struck! My H990DS sustained water damage and cant be fixed (apparently) as there is damage to the logic board.

I loved this phone, it had everything I needed/wanted so now I am looking to replace it with an identical model.

If anyone has one they are looking to sell, please drop me a line!

Also, I am hoping those on this forum may know - is there an alternative equivalent on the market? I am yet to find a dual sim+dedicated SD phone with a decent enough processor (high level snapdragon) and a good amount of RAM.

I waited in hope last year that the V30+ would come out without the hybrid sim configuration and have a dedicated SD slot, but i was let down there. I am now hoping the V40 rectifies this mistake, but I dont think ill hold my breath. Its a feature that seems to be relegated to mid range devices these days.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] tech_infinity:
Yes. It's really sad to see hybrid sim trays.

Xiaomi Poco F1 would've been a great alternative for you but it also had hybrid slots.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bubu23:
its strange or its the same for everybody or just for me .

i have the exinos version and my phone and all galxy phone i had got the same lagg for years

if i use the infinity wall paper i got no lag but if i change the wall paper for home screen and for lock screen the moment i open the lockscreen to hone screen the animation lag again...when i slide the screen to open the phone from lockscreen to home screen isee lag in the animation when i have on the home screen icons its weird do you see that too?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Monnq:
The only slowdown I noticed was when I left my knox-secured folder, like 0,5s lag before it closed. Do you have a branded software or unbranded?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bober10113:
wondering if its not the launcher being throttled. on infinity theme they might have to get it optimized by not letting the system sleep some cores to allow a seemingless experience. when you change to static wallpaper,this optimization is removed to prioritize battery . but as we can see, it would be nice to get at least the same performance on non infinity themes/wallpapers
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] dorpmuller:
I disable and/or shorten animations in developer options on every device I have. Makes a difference. On the Note I use pitch black wallpaper from the play store. Keeps it simple and frees up resources. Those animations, etc take more cpu. So I don't use 'em.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] PsiPhiDan:
Just get Nova Launcher and call it a day. NO lag.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] sri4xda:
Are you using default theme or some thurd party theme? Incompatible themes can lag phone too.

---------- Post added at 07:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:28 PM ----------

Unfortunately any third party launcher still hanging or lagging when an incompatible theme used in samsung themes.

Default or some themes seem to help overcome lag specially in exynos note 9.

---------- Post added at 07:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:39 PM ----------

When the lag observed, open samsung members app n submit feedback as problem. Already submitted once but more submitting gives it high priority to resolve
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bubu23:
branded out of the box ...just have update to h5 and made ota update
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bubu23:
you right no lag but nove dont have or dont control the animation from lockscreen to home screen ...this the note 9 animation...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bubu23:
the funny i notice that if i remove the icons from the home screen and leave only the icon on the docs so thers no lag at all but when thers icons on the home screen the animation from lockscreen to home screen make it lag
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] PsiPhiDan:
Oh, I see. I tend to turn off most animations, or at least set them to 0.25 in the developer options.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bubu23:
update:ok i found asolution that will kill all lag between stuff from lockscreen and home screen and beyond

we need to change in developer option only the duration animation to 0.5 little faster and its kill all lag check this lots time not even one lag great!!!!!

but change only the duration cause all the rest animation got no lag :good::good::good::D
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] @rbiter:
.25? Where is that?

And I think the OP is trolling. Have you seen the topics he is creating? But his iPhone X doesn't do this.

And I don't know why people keep thinking changing the animation duration to a lower setting gets rid of lag. It is just an option to cover up all latencies interacting with phone and to give it a little flair. Changing the animation timing doesn't do anything for lag. If anybody wants to argue the point change the timing higher and use for awhile and then go back to a lower setting.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] PsiPhiDan:
Sorry, my memory failed me. I guess it's only 0.5.

Changing the animation definitely APPEARS to make things faster and less laggy. Whether it's placebo or not, I'm not sure.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] dieselhazza:
Samsung always has a form of lag. Its in their DNA
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bober10113:
hey i know you!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] sri4xda:
Facing this lag from day one.

Somehow the default theme helped a bit but I am still not convinced n Samsung shall provide fix for lag.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] sri4xda:
Any luck with fix?

Default theme helped a bit but finally i have to remove samsung account from phone. Seems its helping a bit too. Not sure how samsung release a laggy phone
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Chyeo1979:
Most likely everyone is experiencing similar thing but you just have a very low tolerance for "lag".
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] sri4xda:
Hmmm, its actually annoying to see such laggy premium phone.

When samsung account is added, somehow samsung cloud auto sync n auto backup is on. Cloud sync always have additional lags. Disbaling cloud sync or removing samsung account completely seems to help in handling lag.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] sandythegenius:
HI friends,

Just install the HTC Sense 9 ported apps like Sense Home launcher, Weather, clock etc.

Everything will work smoother and faster on this note 9.

[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] svetius:
Honor's recent decision to end bootloader unlocks for their phones upset the entire community, us included, and we've been working feverishly to get them to change the decision. That said, it takes time for complaints to climb the ladder of such a big company, and we've had to settle for baby steps. :fingers-crossed:

We asked Honor for the reason behind this action and this is what they said:

XDA Developers are actively engaged in software development and they constantly provide valuable suggestions to optimize Honor products. Based on their feedback, that unlocked bootloaders make it easier for them to develop and create, Honor has decided to re-open bootloader unlock on an exclusive number of codes to the XDA Developer community. :highfive:

The unlock codes are available for download exclusively to XDA Developers on a first-come-first-served basis via this online form....Update: thank you to all that applied for an unlock code. We are no longer taking requests. Unlock codes will be sent out in batches, starting the week of 25 September and continuing until the end of the year. Further instructions will go out via XDA PM asap. :D. XDA users can apply for the codes using the form and all applicants will have the opportunity to share their feedback. It might take several weeks to receive an unlock code after requesting one, but we'll work with Honor to expedite the process as much as possible.

XDA will continue to work with Honor to give users a strong voice when decisions are made that affect their user experience. Finally, they had this to say:

[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Criston:

[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] h8Aramex:
Well I am a Huawei owner and I already have my code. But I would like to still thank XDA for pushing this, and actually doing something.

Really hoping Huawei will come up with a solution.

To be fair, I kinda understand them. As it is right now, the OS on the phone is way too fragile, and you can end in a permanent brick way too easy.

But that is something they should fix on their end and not punish users for wanting to have control over these great devices.

Like, I love my Mate 10 Pro. It's one of the best on the market I believe. And hell, I am ready to purchase a Mate 20 (Pro?) if it comes out. But only, if we get custom OS support. Don't get me wrong, I actually like EMUI, and I totally don't get the complaints about EMUI. Trust me. If you complain about it, go and try Touchwiz. You will know hell. However, at some point, Huawei will stop providing updates or will focus on later models. At that point, I would still like to stay 'fresh' and have a lean OS. I had an S3 LTE, a Note 2, Note 4, LG G4, LG G Pro 2, and Cyanogen/Lineage and the others have given these devices new life.

Ps.: tl;dr: If we get custom roms, I keep buying them, my family will buy them, my friends will buy. If not, well, we all go to other brands.
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] ming3r:
This isn't just spitting in the face of users right?
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] 2WildFirE:
Hope they change the decision and permanent opening bootloader again.
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Nimueh:
Well I for one do NOT understand them. It's absolutely NONE of their business what we (who paid good money for OUR phones!) do with the devices! If we brick them or whatever breaks - it doesn't concern Huawei at all since it's not covered by any kind of warranty after we unlock the bootloader.

I bought the View 10 ONLY because of the Honor Open Source program and of course right after I got the damn thing everything shut down.

I for one will NOT support a company that treats their paying customers like dirt - this is my first and most definitely LAST Huawei/Honor device unless they do an about face, let us unlock our bootloaders and support custom roms. ?
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Surge1223:
This is great news. I'm glad that the talks with them went somewhere. Good job guys.
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] KreAch3R:
While I truly appreciate the effort from everyone involved in this action, this doesn't help anything. If the devices are not open for everyone, they are not open for anyone.

This is the equivalent of not escalating a situation with an angry customer and giving him what he wants, a special treatment, while all the others won't get it.

That's not fair at all.
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] MishaalRahman:
This is hopefully the first step to get this decision reversed at a later stage.

And regarding your analogy comparing this to an angry customer - the people who mainly are concerned by this decision are the people who would come to XDA forums anyway. This decision is more like showing special treatment to a target demographic of angry customers than a single angry customer.
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] moonmandev:
what about Kernel Source codes etc for more recent devices like honor play? are they planing on releasing any?
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] garwynn:
I'm glad to see a little wiggle room on this. But as Huawei arguably has one of the top devices on market (or so I keep hearing about the P20 Pro) it also starts to make sense.

Here's hoping a good balance can be found.
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] ghostofcain:
Except you don't, in the EU at least, inspite of Honour / Huawei claims software modification, including unlocking bootloader doesn't invalidate your hardware warranty.
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] LJAM96:
Good to see. Well done to XDA for sticking to their guns and getting Honor to soften their stance.

Hopefully if just the start and it can become a permanent policy and the Huawei side of the business to do the same. (which I heavily doubt they will

) My P20 Pro would be a perfect phone if I could get from EMUI to stock

[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] UnNamsa74:
what about lock code on Honor V10? some people write about not working old codes on ROM FW>=163 version. Via this service, Huawei sent new code for new room or include downgrading to old room warning with code?
[Honor View 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other D] Nimueh:
While that IS true you'll have a hard time getting any repairs done once you unlocked it - and besides, my hardware doesn't break due to me f*cking up by unlocking and flashing custom roms etc. If someone flashes a bad kernel and blows their chip due to overclocking or what have you the repair centers can still tell and refuse a warranty repair.

Either way you look at it - letting us unlock our devices does NOT cost them anything, but it will keep us buying their phones.
