[Nexus 5X General] toolshed01:
Hi everyone!!!! :D

I would like to share with you how I have pimped/boosted my nexus 5x.

First of all I bought a 4gb +32 motherboard from "Dealer&Conscience Store" on Aliexpress, which made the application startup faster specially when I switch between one application and another between those that were previously open.

I replaced my 2 years old battery with a new original battery bought on ebay from an italian store and tested with AccuBattery, my old battery was at 79% health, the new is at 93%. I know there are 3400mAh batteries for N5x, but the negative feedback about their real amperage and life have discouraged me from buying it.

An hard choise was which rom and kernel install, in past years and months I tried many roms like the beautiful pixel2rom and kernels like Franco kernel, I also tried the new Pie based rom, but I chose to stay on the stock rom and stock kernel to have a system as stable as possible, just as Google made it. So I installed the stock 8.1 and rooted my phone. May be in future I will decide to install a Pie based rom to keep me updated when it will be stable and definitive.

I installed Pixel Launcher because I like it more than the stock launcher and I want the rounded icons.

I installed the surround sound mod to enable the handset speaker when I listen music.

I looked for the best camera application, I tried the camera nx and Arnova, the two apps are similar, both allow to have Pixel 2 features like portrait mode, but I think the Arnova gcam is better in quality picture and advanced settings. So i'm actually using the Arnova 8.1 version. I also enabled the video stabilization modifying the build.prop file.

What I miss and I would like to install soon is the night light, I know there is a mod but in past I installed it and i was unable to boot my phone.. so i'm using an app to do it.

Do you have any suggestions to improve my nexus performance/experience preserving the system stability?

And if you pimped your Nexus, which is your configuration? :cool:
[Nexus 5X General] mperezm77:
Do you have the link for the battery?
[Nexus 5X General] soap94:
Cool, exactly the same thing I plan to do.

Only that I additionally add the copper mod.

I notice that constantly in everyday life, if the cpu gets too hot, the nexus can not be operated for seconds.

The board will probably come tomorrow and the battery I ordered original from a spare parts supplier of our company.

Actually, I wanted to buy the pixel, but the Nexus 5X does it too.

I got the Nexus 5x as a backup phone and I really like the features so far for the price. LineageOS with the Franco Kernel and the buildprop for EIS makes you feel like you got a abetter phone altogether.
[Nexus 5X General] cris_webb:
I'm new with this device and I'm planning change the motherboard because my device only has 16 gb of rom, so it's nice to read your thread.

Also, what version of the GCam are you using?

I'm using the NX one but I want to compare the results on portrait mode.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elnayeb:
Hi,

My Note 4 Sm-n910c recently started fooling with my battery life though I bought a new original one and thing was even worse, So after near 3 years I decided to root my phone and get a rom.

So I installed twrp and Air Rom (I guess V2.something) based on A320F and it includes many note 7 and 8 features. It's almost stable and o fog my great battery back.

But 2 things are not working, 1 is the finger scanner (which I can manage bit hope to fix), 2 my s view cover is not working and so I need the Original port all of s view cover to work including all features like camera.. etc.

Please help me get it or mention any link to follow.

With Warm Regards.

If you try to install Arnova's version, it will fail due to conflicts with the original GCam. This is just a cloned app that can be installed on Pixel/Pixel XL.

Hi, I'm curious what is different from Official Google Camera from Playstore, the Pixel 3 Camera APK, and Arnova's version you linked, and these?
[Google Pixel Themes, Apps, and Mods] Cezar`:
Arnova's version has some of the pixel 3 functionality enabled for other phones (like portrait mode and focal length changing after taking a portrait mode photo). If you install the non moded version, you don't get portrait mode or h256 encoding for videos (and more).

None of the v6 based moded gcam apps on the site you link work on Pixel due to their manifest, which is exactly the same as the original app (preinstalled on pixels), forces an update of the original app, update which fails as it recognizes that the moded version is not really a qualified update for the original one
[Google Pixel Themes, Apps, and Mods] mrdope16:
I installed it on Pixel.. CameraNX captures much more beautiful photos.

More saturated and brighter
[Google Pixel Themes, Apps, and Mods] hp13:
Working great . Thanks for compiling it.

Will you update whenever Arnova updates or wait for stable builds only?
[Google Pixel Themes, Apps, and Mods] akkiurs:

Dont Start. Not for this device and wants to Install App cloner.
[Google Pixel Themes, Apps, and Mods] remocore:
Apk from apk mirror installs perfectly but This Arnova mod is not. App cloner seems to solve this problem.
[Google Pixel Themes, Apps, and Mods] waqar144:
Newer version available. Nothing exciting yet. It's more stable than the previous version. Night mode and photobooth options are there but not really doing anything. Also I am unable to get topshot to work so if anyone has been able to kindly share.

Note: Use App Cloner from Playstore to install

Can't share the link since I am new here. Just Google 'Arnova GCam' and download GoogleCamera_6.1.009.215420794-beta-1.apk
[Google Pixel Themes, Apps, and Mods] somethingbetter:

I unistalled the stock camera app and installed this plus camera NX.
[Google Pixel Themes, Apps, and Mods] tangoalfa:
I updated my stock camera with the 6.1 APK taken from the Pixel 3 that can be found on APK Mirror and it replaced the one that came with the system.

Then I downloaded the one from the Google Drive link on the first post and also works and installs as CameraP, but has a little bit of an issue with WB.

Do the new releases try to overwrite the stock Camera?
[Google Pixel Themes, Apps, and Mods] waqar144:
Yes.

So you have to install using AppCloner. I can't share links or otherwise I would have shared the apk with you guys.

The newer version is much more stable. Seems almost perfect except for the zoom. You have to tap the plus button to zoom, if you pinch zoom it will crash. Also, HDR+Enhanced is giving some next level low light shots. Portrait mode seems better than Camera NX. No Top shot, night sight, Photobooth for now.
[Google Pixel Themes, Apps, and Mods] tangoalfa:
I never used AppCloner. Does it require root?

Edit: I've checked over the Play store and there are a lot of app cloning Aps. Which one do you recommend?

Can you provide either a play store link or the exact name of the app and Dev so we can try this new GCam port.

Thanks!

EDIT 2: Never mind the link. I got it from APK Mirror. I installed the camera but the viewfinder was really laggy and the phone started getting really hot. So I just uninstalled both, the Camera and AppCloner.

Did something similar happen to you?
[Google Pixel Themes, Apps, and Mods] hp13:
I don't like the idea of installing app cloner. Hopefully there will be a way to install it alongside stock app
[Google Pixel Themes, Apps, and Mods] waqar144:
Not really. Pixel does get hot occasionally though. And both cameras you mentioned are working pretty well on my side. I am loving the Arnova's version and can't wait for the next release.

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Lucas_Maximiliano:
[NOTE] - This behavior is exactly the same on both global (Pie 9.0) and stable (Oreo 8.0) version. I´ve checked this, so "Stable" Oreo is also buggy.

Report > http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=4190948&extra=

This bug still remains in latest build (8.10.11). in miui per/app notifications option, notifications are activated by default,

BUT you can see a few options below each app notification page switch: Sound, vibration, show on lockscreen, show headup....

By default, I seem to remember only vibration option is activated, so here (and on each conversation you got a notification in the case of telegram)

You have to activate all options you want: sound, show on lockscreen....

After a while, all this activated options will be resetted by the system (we dont know why) and will switch back to its defaults >> "only vibrate and dont show on lock screen" combination.

So I want to collect information about this bug, wich remains after months, and its a very important thing wich need more atention.

THIS IS A G-FORM WHERE YOU CAN SIMPLY TELL IF IT WORKS OR NOT FOR YOU, SO WE CAN SEE HOW MUCH PEOPLE IS AFFECTED OR NOT BY THIS BUG

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S Guides, News, & Discussion] Lucas_Maximiliano:
I´ve tested new V10.0.3.0 very excited, but sadly I have to say this issue remains there.

Some of you maybe say "oh, Im not having this issue... my notifications are working well". Yes, but maybe it default is to play sound, vibration and so... but try to uncheck sound or anything, clean recents, and wait to get a notification for these certain contact. Probably your unchecked options will reactivate again.

Hi everyone,

I'm new to this forum and have joined as I've started working on a private/commercial version of AOSP. I've worked in mobile apps natively and more recently using React Native for the last 5 years and am enjoying hacking and playing around the source.

The main usage for build of AOSP is for a bespoke vehicle tracking device with a few additional features. So far I've managed to build AOSP, flash onto a device, and most recently set the tracking app as the home app so that it boots on launch.

The question that I can't find a solid answer to online is does anyone the best way of going about modifying AOSP so that we can deploy an OTA zip update and have the OS download and update it?

I'm not sure if this is necessarily the best way/use of time. I'm guessing it might be easier to just update the app itself internally and not develop OTA updates for the OS? I think at this stage I'm just after opinions before I spend too much time getting stuck into it. My only concern would be that we have 100+ devices out there and no ability to update the OS... although if it's a basic build of AOSP that just removes a few pre-installed apps, has a custom bootlogo and replaces the home app, maybe that's not necessary?

Any advice at this early stage would be gratefully received! Additionally, any tips for development or something a noob would benefit from would be great.

Thanks,

Joel :D

[Lenovo ZUK Z2 (Plus) Questions & Answers] ZeeSmilez:
So just today, I realized I was under clocking my phone's CPU at 1920 mHz instead of the base clock speed of 2150 mHz which basically meant I was limiting its performance. Realizing this, I called myself an idiot and was also excited to see my benchmarks at base clock since its 165K using antutu when under clocked. So I changed my clock speed back to 2150 mHz and started benchmarking. All was going well until around 80% of the benchmark when the screen just instantly turned off and the notification light dimly lit up, no warnings, just instant. I can't interact with my phone until I forced restart it. I under clocked my phone again if it still has the same issue but benchmarking worked out just fine. Any idea why this happened and is there any fix? I really want to know my benchmarks at 2150 mHz ;-;

Ps: idk how to call website admins but please tell them to fix their website for PCs, can't even login since text boxes are missing, can't make a new thread since title input text box is missing when making new thread. Everything is fine on phone tho.

[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Accessories] amelsfort:
When I ordered my Mi A2 I also ordered a Dux Ducis case. Although it's a nice case, I noticed my phone still received touches when the case was closed. I found out this was because the case isn't putting the phone in sleep mode, which I was used to on my OPO.

I tried getting this behaviour using an app (Tasker and different apps) that uses the proximity and/or light sensors to put the phone to sleep. Unfortunately, when I tried waking the phone afterwards, the fingerprint scanner was disabled and I had to use the unlock code.

So now I'm looking for a different case with auto sleep/wake functionality, but all cases I find all need an app for it. And I'm afraid using the app gets my fingersprint scanner disabled, like the other apps did.

Can anyone recommend a case for my Mi A2 that has auto sleep/wake out of the box?

[Huawei Nova 2 Plus  Questions & Answers] fl1tz:
Hallo buddies. I hoped to unlock my bootloader (PIC-LX9). But I received the following answer from the huawei support:

So far there is no further need to root the device. But the Nova 2 Plus is probably no longer supplied with new Android versions (for example Pie). The Nova 2 Plus is a good mid-range mobile phone. and not exactly cheap. It is hard to understand why it will be 'out of date' after just one year.

And that without the possibility to flash other comstume roms.

Have one a solution? For example a code like the safestrape for Motorola Omap4 devices? (The Moto is my second phone with crDroid in daily use.) from developer stargo (I believe).
