[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] jaylittle:
FWIW, the touchscreen works fine after I switch slots back to my 0902 install. I am assuming something changed with the kernel in the latest build that breaks the touchscreen somehow? Note: It doesn't work on the 0914 install when I boot into either system or the built-in recovery.

EDIT: Can anybody else with a PH-1 install the 0914 Official XenonHD build and attempt to verify the issue?

---------- Post added at 05:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:36 PM ----------

So I just installed the 20180910 official build and it worked fine. Well at least the touchscreen in the system works. Touchscreen on recovery doesn't work. It appears that some Essential specific kernel updates were merged between the 0910 and 0914 builds according to the Change Log so something in one of those two commits seems likely to be cause.

---------- Post added at 05:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:51 PM ----------

LOL - Nevermind about the recovery touchscreen bit. Apparently the volume keys and the power button allow for adequate navigation there. My bad. So yeah definitely something touchscreen related broke between 0910 and 0914 in the kernel when it comes to the actual system. I apologize for my "stream of consciousness" like posting behavior.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] bmg1001:
Essential updated some touchscreen related firmware files in the September Patch, causing touchscreen issues for those with mismatched firmware. Well known issue since the day the patch was released. Not sure what blobs this ROM requires, but I'd suggest trying different "hyp" partitions from either the August or September update.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] jaylittle:
I tried flashing the hyp partition from both the August and September update using the stock files available in this forum.

Sept = bootloop with 0914

Aug = boots, but no touch on 0914

I did some digging and read that you needed to flash both the hyp and the rpm partitions together. So I did that. Same results with 0914.

Any ideas?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] MoistPicklez:
Anyone give the latest 0923 build a try? I'd like to give it a shot but at the same time I don't want to lose touch responsiveness.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] dadi11:
Hey, I'm back from vacation. Seems that I've missed something there. All sources (blobs, kernel and device tree) used by me are the latest lineage-15.1 ones.

Also I'm searching for some testers for first XenonHD Pie builds :)
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] jaylittle:
Can you specifically list what the firmware partitions are that we should be concerned with? Is there anything beyond hyp and rpm that we need to flash?

this one looks fine
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] jaylittle:
Ahhh that explains a lot. Thanks. I'll try this later on this evening and report on my results. I appreciate the help!
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] jaylittle:
Update: Worked like a charm! I'm running on 0923 and everything is working great!

[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] dadi11:
great to hear. hopefully it will be the same with 9.0 :fingers-crossed:

contact me on telegram :o
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] uodii:
I don't have telegram, but I'd be up for testing. Been waiting for 9.0 rom to come out before diving in to flashing on this phone.

flashed the new pie build, almost done. this commit https://github.com/TeamHorizon/andr...mmit/ee1322b95c792c58eb804f7410c815d3d67c0688 seems not to work, i can't find the option in display settings.
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] dadi11:
thanks. will be fixed in next build. how is it overall besides that?
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] aikons:
The phone is more smooth, quickly than oreo, it's stable to use for daily. and this pie rom has the most advanced settings in this stage.

but still have some bugs in some function, like full screen setting fc, what i said above, etc...

anyway thx for ur hard work!
[Essential Phone ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] dadi11:
new build is up, you should receive the OTA notification :)

Guys this device was abandoned and you shouldn't even use it as it's outdated. I'm closing this thread
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Ashalby:
For those who tested stock and custom roms can we know which one is more stable and gives better performance and better screen on time battery life

I am using lineage 15.1 8.1 latest update for 3 days now and it's really good and stable but i still wanna get back to stock with no reason
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] marko.dnb:
If you want customization go for a Custom ROM, stock is more reliable, lacks customization but has better SoT. Best Custom ROM for balanced usage (battery/performance) is definitely Liquid Remix with Franco kernel. It also has bunch of customization. Battery life on Liquid Remix is closest to Stock.

Also, if you care about sound quality, Stock is the best choice since Dirac can't be ported to Custom ROMs.

I'm currently using Liquid Remix + Franco Kernel and with my usage i can easily get 7-8 hours of SoT, almost identical as Stock. Tried few other ROMs and none of them achieved SoT as Liquid Remix.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Ashalby:
I don't want any customizations i already use magisk and xposed modules + substratum themes on stock room and it did the job great but the only reason to change into lineage is that recently some apps forces stops by itself and google play works 1 hour a day and the rest of the day stops when searching or pressing on any app

Is your advice to clean install latest stock rom for more stability ?

Thanks for your respond
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] marko.dnb:
Yeah, flash latest Stock firmware with MiFlash, apps shouldn't force close, maybe substratum theme you're using is causing these issues, atleast that was case for me on Stock ROM, as soon as some app gets updated, it starts force closing until i re-enable substratum overlays.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] Ashalby:
I know that issue but apps stops even without theme installed but it's ok i will give it a try

Thanks for advice

Hi,

I am newby to this forum. i am thinking of purchasing it and use it with THREE network in Australia. Will it work? can anyone confirm? Thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] sherpa:
If THREE network supports GSM and if your Tilt is unlocked, then yes!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] _Alex_:
3 Networks in Australia offers the TyTN II and possibly others.

There are minor differences between the TyTN II and the AT&T Tilt. The most notable being the missing front camera on the Tilt and possibly the keyboard layout.

As suggested earlier, if your phone is SIM unlocked and you have the proper connection settings for data, it shouldn't be a problem.

If you need data connection settings, search for 'Connection Settings' cab or download it from one of the repositories listed in the sticky in my sig.

Hope this helps!

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] androidbadboy:
Hi XDA Friends

Below is an eye opener that I think got me convinced not to buy POCO- check out why:

I keep on hearing bad thing in my area about POCO from advanced users who judged the phone only by it's specification.

They told me that indeed the CPU/SoC (Snapdragon 845) is a great stuff but the phone as a whole makes no sense cause:

1. No NFC and no OIS (optical image stabilization)

2. Not so good cameras (Xiaomi used to delived better camers to other devices)

3. Every other part of the phone except the Snapdragon 845 which is currently the best Snapdragon on the market is making huge distance to that quiality of the CPU. Basicly they told me that Xiaomi put a super CPU/SoC and a good battery into a budget phone so it is not worth buying.

4. They said that it's way better to buy Huawei Mate 10 Lite or Honor 10 cause these phones as a whole are well balanced.

5. NO Amoled display screen, just IPS.

6. Xiaomi lured users to buy a phone with that Snapdragon 845 but as a whole it isnt a photo phone, a storage phone, a gaming phone. It's just and overpriced Redmi Note 4/5.

What do You think dear Friends?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] munchy_cool:
People will find faults in everything. What were you expecting for $300? were you expecting Note 9 for $300?

you get what you pay for. for the price, this phone has good enough cameras, top of the line processor.

People will always b*tch about something. The phone is not overpriced at all.

tell them , this is the reason why this phone is worth buying. Those Huawei phones dont allow bootloader unlock, so f*ck Huawei. Huawei came to xda, and when the became popular they just locked them bootloaders and left.

also, change the title on your thread. stop with the click bait, drama creating titles.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] androidbadboy:
Thanks dude, I will tell them.

PLease dont make me a drama king cause I really hate to give such titles but here at XDA we all are like a huge family and I believe we should take care of each other hence this tittle.

Look difrently if someone wants this phone real bad that topic wont stop him.

Please be more understading!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] munchy_cool:
Then your title should be

is the poco f1 overpriced?

this title which you have

"Read this thread before you buy POCO"

is absolute BS of a title.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] androidbadboy:
I disagree dude. These advanced users never mentioned price. It's not about it, its about the balance of all components.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] munchy_cool:
what your advanced users are looking for is a $750 phone for $300 which will never happen.

There is a reason why the Pixel, S9, Note 9 cost what they cost.

dont change the title. this thread will die like many such on xda.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] androidbadboy:
I agree about they money but they claim that this phone isnt worth even this $300. Either You buy something cheaper or something much more expensive. This phone is like a planet without a sun. No purpose at all.

This guys just a troll don't listen to him he probably bought honour play Or mia2 and is regretting it and crying like a *****...
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] androidbadboy:
Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. Dude. Let's not start a fight. It will get us nowhere. If You would like to know I preordered POCO a couple of days ago and I always have the chance of canceling.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] najjurocks619:
Dude seriously??? Did you just came after watching some BS drop tests and all on youtube, that made you these thoughts?? You don't need to be smart to see if you drop your phone what will happen?? And geez Snapdragon 845 is the main purpose all are buying this device, Name any device in the same price 300$ or lower which is better than this or at least competes with this?? Seriously i saw only one guy hating it thinking like it could be xiaomi's strategy to make people in trap, I met many people who already bought this and are all happy to thw fullest and 0% people complaining which I personally know.

---------- Post added at 03:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:33 AM ----------

One more thing it would have be great if you first bought the device yourself and experience and then share it rather than competing with the guys who already own this beast and are happy.

---------- Post added at 03:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:37 AM ----------

And none of your points make any sense about soc and battery are senseless and for NFC personally in my country it's waste and no one gives shi*s it's useless.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] androidbadboy:
I'm just saying that my these advanced users do make valid points.

Why do You think I ordered this phone in the fist place? Casue of Snapdragon 845 and I am not campaning against POCO. I;m just leaving this message for pleeople that have a big imagination.

Personaly, I'd like to have it but I care about XDA users and I respect others opinion. So chill dude, please.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] P650SE:
I don't have the phone but will be ordering it as soon as possible.

The lack of NFC doesn't bother me since I have never used it in my entire life. Not having OIS is a bit disappointing but whatever, I never take pictures in low light so that doesn't matter too much.

AFAIK the cameras are still pretty decent, or at least that's what the reviews seem to suggest. I watched some camera comparisons with the OnePlus 6 and they both seemed equally matched, more or less.

I would never buy a Huawei phone for the same reason someone mentioned above, betraying the entire dev community like a bunch of assholes. No bootloader unlock means no sale! :rolleyes:

I am glad there are still high-specced phones out there with IPS panels. My eyes are extremely sensitive to the Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) used in OLED panels to regulate brightness. My Axon 7 caused me months of headaches and eyestrain until I realised that's what was causing the problem. Never again will I buy another AMOLED phone unless they figure out how to get rid of PWM.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] androidbadboy:
so POCO is geat for You, Im happy to hear that. BTW You're the first person saying that dosnt like amoled
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] watsinaname:
I kind of disagree with the post, several reviewers have rated the phone well on most counts, I am not a tech reviwer but an enthusiast who spends money to experience the new and the nice in tech.

Any phone has shortcomings, and so has this but imagine what you are paying for those, the curved screens on galaxy devices is effectively one of the things what one pays the premium for yet the real world functionality remains arguable. Having said that let me state whats amazing about this phone in my hands on experience so far.

1. Photo quality and Camera speed, the camera launches quick, snaps quick, the ai detection is fast and accurate and pictures are good with or without ai and hdr

2. Phone handling, single handed use, comfort, the phone gets this right. Face unlock, finger prints unlock are both very fast, the raise to wake feature is super useful. It does not feel a cheap phone by any means.

3. Battery life is too early to judge but my first charge has gone 30 hours with 3 hours screen time in a very bad reception area. (still at 50%)

4. The screen quality, contrast and outdoor usage all are at par with the good screens around. No complaints there yet.

5. The software on board is fast and functional, gestures work well plenty of settings to customize, the stock poco launcher is certainly better than what you see on Redmi phones

The minor annoyances come from the following

1. The curve at the bottom of the bottom could have been smaller, its not stopping anything functionally but just feels a bit more than needed.

2. Notification icons don't show up on the notification bar

3. Icons don't seem to have an option to resize. Nothing that another launcher won't solve.

Some may think its not a gaming phone, or a camera phone, why don't we think its a functional phone which ticks all the boxes without trying to be the master of one, the phone does everything well. If you must compare the phone, do so against the flagships and see how many contests it fights well, don't compare it to the midrange phones because it just bests them in all areas.

In an analogy form this phone is a new heavyweight boxer that can stand its ground well in the ring.

If someone has only 300$ to spend, they must buy this, if one has 250$ to spend, this is worth the 50$ extra if one can manage, if someone has 400$ or more they would not regret spending 300 here, though they are free to spend the extra bit on whatever feature specific phone they would like.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] antonioli84:
Man, people say some funny stuffs that we can't know if it's serious or not. NFC isn't a deal breaker for many many people. The camera uses the same sensor as Mi 8, Mi Mix 2S, Vivo NEX S, Asus Zenfone 5z that are so much expensive. The lack of OIS is not the end of the world and if a person want it so just spend more money for that.

A lot of flagships has 3000, 3000, 3400mAh and Pocophone has 4000mAh and it's not good enough.

AMOLED? Really? Even Mi Mix 2S don't have it, LG G7 doesn't have it, Xperia XZ2 don't have it and some others. They are all much more expensive and don't have it. The important thing is that Pocophone has a good quality IPS display.

The phone has good screen, good battery life, good camera, it's well made, stellar UFS storage, stellar memory speed and stellar SoC and people complain. If someone wants stellar everything, so go buy a phone that is double or triple the price. The phone gives us more than we pay for sure. There are a lot of phones in the market that is medium to good in everything and costs around $300.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] vinumsv:
As person who have poco phone and Note 8 , i have to humbly disagree OP's points

1. NFC is good to have but not a necessity but personally i have far better option (Called note 8) and also we so called advances users would have over specs 1000 times before buying any device be it poco f1

2. It has good camera(s) with 1.9 and 2.0 aperture lenses with sony IMX sensors and for price point they do great in good lighting conditions and OIS is again good option to have but not a must.

3. Not sure how to answer that question as you have done it yourself as XIaomi has put SD 845 SOC in a budget phone

4. DOn't have those phone to comment on them

5. Amoled is awesome as i have one of the best amoled screen on phone :P but this IPS LCD panel is no slouch adequate brightness and color accuracy

just my .02 cents
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] shailendra1993:
NFC - you will not find NFC in any device in the same price range, not even Honor Play and what you will do with NFC? I have had atleast 3 phones with NFC but they were useless because except samsung pay my country has no support for NFC payment.

2. AMOLED? Are you serious?? Does honor 10 has amoled? I have used LCD all my life and had no problem, only viewing angles are bad, why would anyone see their phone from sides btw? I have 2 ways of getting an AMOLED:

i. If I buy a mid range phone that has AMOLED and useless processors like SD450 or SD430 Cost - 300USD-400USD

ii. If I buy a high end phone that has both AMOLED and great processor - Cost - More than 700USD

Xiaomi's LCD screen is on par with even expensive phone's display.

3. Honor and Huawei are worst companies in terms of open source and custom ROM development. I had an honor 8 pro, these idiots said they will support development but after few months they flew away, now there is no method to even root the phone and last I had heard, Huawei/Honor will not allow bootloader unlocking.

4. Everyone knows that the camera is not good, it is called cost cutting, everyone here is buying Poco just for the SoC. I was going to buy Honor Play, but however bad poco's camera is, it is still better than honor play's camera and android Pie is certain but Honor nowadays is not even providing patches on time and with each new update a new bug arises.

5. And you are right, Poco F1 is nothing but Redmi Note 5 with a better SoC. And don't even mention Widevine here, I have Moto Z play, Honor 8 Pro, Mi A1, Samsung J7 Max and none of them support Widevine L1 and most of them cost more than Poco.

Your power users are noobs and not experienced people and you sir, either are a very rich guy, else you are extremely stupid.

Dude, you high or something? Change the damn title to "is Poco F1 worth the price?". You are not giving some top secret news about POCO. You are just sharing your stupid opinion which anyone can. "Read before you buy?". I have it and it's awesome. You just don't understand tech stuff a lot. 100000 people already has it. 5000 has posted 5* review on flipkart.
