Features!

Hi!

I know nothing about the Honor's smartphones but a friend of mine in the UK says this one is one off the best "large" screen phone and best one for the price. I am a Samsung guy for the last decade, so what features do Honor phones have that make it distinguish from the Samsungs?
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] PalakMi:
Q1- What differentiates the 8X (or the X series in general) from other Honor phones?!

Q2- Why did you choose a 2MP camera as a secondary depth sensor instead of let's say a wide angle or telephoto camera?!
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] :
This is my last question (hopefully).

#1 So assuming Huawei/Honor do not provide bootloader unlocking in the future, how will Honor maintain it's relationship with the XDA community. In the XDA forums, as of recents, Huawei & Honor are not popular with many people selling their devices as well. I know that XDA is a small part of the Android Community but it's still significant. And with other manufacturer like OnePlus actively supporting Android Development, how will Honor convince people to buy it's phone especially in XDA. I know not many people mod their phones but it doesn't take much to convert. Infact the reason why I rooted my phone was because Google Feed wasn't available in my country.

#2 If you guys refuse to provide Bootloader unlocking, what are your future plans regarding customization in EMUI. It's no secret EMUI doesn't play well with third party software (Launcher, etc). Are there plans to fix that and allow for more third party customization in EMUI 9.1 ?

#3 Are there plans to introduce built-in customization options like Samsung's Goodstar? It could be downloaded from App Gallery and then apply them. Also another question is that is there a possibility that Huawei/Honor will merge the Google Framework required to run Google Camera into EMUI. Like how Xiaomi did with MIUI. It could be useful as Google Camera is a good app that relies on software to produce good photos.

These above 2 options could help fill in the gap left by Bootloader unlocking. And while these customization are nothing compared to what you could do by unlocking the Bootloader but it will be a start. And something that can be built upon and improved with time. So is there a chance any of this will happen?

What kind of vision does the Honor company have for the next 5 to 10 years? For example, AI tech is trending feature for now.

Are you going to offer such a surprising features about Honor phones? (I believe the answer is yes but I want to be sure)

[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] IdiotWithGlasses:
Regarding about Updates

So, I have a question. Is therw any possibility that Honor 8X can get EMUI 9.0 alongside Android P? If so, can it improve the devices performance and battery as well as add nifty features to make the device faster? Kinda curious since I wanna try out a Honor 8X since I was mesmerised by reviews on it. Also, will it recieve GPU Turbo 2.0 if possible since there are some users that are mobile gamers? Thanks!
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] karige:
Days have passed but still not a reply from the Honor side!

Is this what will happen, with the device after being sold, like they don't care anymore? A silent support!!
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] :
They will begin to reply after 21. They are looking at the questions now. Besides all the questions here fall into three categories.

1. Regarding Bootloader unlocking and other Miscellaneous stuff regarding the development community and Honor as well as future of EMUI.

2. Question whose answer can be found just by Googling them. E.g would be Does it support fast charge etc.

3. Weird ones. (Design inspiration? Seriously? )

Buuut, I am not judging. Just making it easy for the reply know what is in this 12 page long thread. Sort of like a summary. What I am more interested in though is how the winner will be chosen. I hope it's not random. I never win in those.

---------- Post added at 05:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:29 AM ----------

So, I have a question regarding the 8X. In advertisement you mention something about TÜV-Something certification. It reduces blue light of phones. How good does it work. How does it work. I couldn't find anything on Google and the review don't cover that. The Honor 8X is aimed at budjet markets. While at the same time Play is also available. Between the two which one is better. The Honor 8X is a budget phone with the look and feel of a premium one. How is that possible i.e how did you achieve that. You obviously cut some corners. What corners were cut. I know this phone doesn't have 1080p video playback. The chepaer type MicroUSB. What else? Lastly are there plans to introduce a budget Honor phone with a Triple Lens setup.
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] dhaval1979:
How frequently Honor provide latest firmware update?

Will Honor work on Amazing Honor 8x front camera algorithms to make portrait mode work better? Even for back camera too.
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] Adnan027:
The moment I first learned about the Honor 8x I fell in love with it, I knew this is going to be my next smartphone, with every post and video I saw I was more convinced of buying it.

BUT it was only later that I come to know that Honor has disabled unlocking bootloader. Honor 8x has such a great hardware and it has so much more potential. I have seen many camera reviews and though the pictures are sharp, I can definitely say the color profile could have been better. The major reason that keeps me away from Honor 8x is the fact that it cannot run gcam. The zsl, hdr+ and boundary detection in portrait is really hard to miss. I've personally been using it on my current phone and the difference between stock camera and pixel camera is really HUGE. The one major reason that contributes to the success of Xiomi and OnePlus is because of their super active community on Xda, in the latest miui 10 update the company even officially released the update that helps better support pixel camera apk.

I know EMUI is more polished now and many may like it as it already is, but same thing might not appeal everyone no matter how good it is. Everyone has their own taste, let people choose what they can use.

I hope you given some consideration to this.
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Another one. So Huawei/Honor plan to become the number 1 smartphone manufacturer by 2019-20. For that they need to cover major markets like India and Europe. In Europe the P-Smart plus is launching for 150$. How much will it cost in Pakistan. If it is ever launcher here. In Pakistan I bought the 6X for 26,000 whereas the 8X or any recent Huawei/Honor phone costs 35,000. That's not a budget anymore. Anyway you plan to decrease price.

Lastly there is the matter about the Glass Back. The 8X has a glass back, no wireless charging support. Sadly. But how durable is the glass. Stronger glass is expensive so to keep the price low you would have used a cheaper alternative. Means if I drop it will it break. Same goes for the phone overall. How much "sturdy" is it. How many time can it be dropped. Does the warranty cover damaged back glass replacement due to accident. If not how much will that cost.

That's only for the Chinese variants.

You can change the launcher on other variants

ur so right

[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] :
You know the sole purpose of this thread is to improve Honor's Relationship with the Development Community after the Bootloader Fiasco. But without any answers I don't see that happening any time soon. It would be nice if even some of these great question were answered. (Though most of them are regarding Bootloader anyway).

Hello all,

I'm attempting to flash my Wings and am having no luck, thanks to the what appears to be some sort of timeout issue with USB comm to the device.

I've scoured and tested all combos of the old ActiveSync driver, the new WMDC driver (v.6.1.6965.0), the RUU I have, and an RUU reported to work with Vista. None of the scenarios worked.

Can someone with Vista that is able to use the RUU please post the version number of the device driver they are using? It'd be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] KingCartman:
On the Android 9 based custom roms (I tried Arrow OS, PE, Pixys OS) I have the issue, that my external SD-Card gets mounted only after the first unlock.

That causes several problems for me. For example:

I selected in Spotify the option to use the external storage for the downloads. After a phone reboot, Spotify cant find the SD-Card immediately and changes the location back to the internal storage.

I already found out that when i disable the authentication (no PIN, password or pattern) it works as espected. On stock Android 8.1 it also works with enabled unlock mechanism.

Is there anything I can do (maybe in the Kernel?) to immediately mount the SD-Card with the Android boot and not after the authentication?

Thanks in advance for your help :)

First of all, sorry for my poor english below.

I'm getting the "Custom binary blocked by FRP lock" on my Samsung Galaxy S7.

I've looked all around the internet, several tutorials, and still can't solve my problem. All of them tells me to download the firmware from Sammobile and then proceed to Odin etc, etc. I've done it all. Every single detail, but it didn't work.

That's the main YouTube tutorial I've got: watch?v=512_HFD3USk

My phone was recognized by Odin, all ok cause I have Samsung USB Drivers installed.

I have downloaded the right file from the Sammobile site, especific for my S7 (G930F).

When I press start, on Odin, the bar doesn't change, not even a little bit. And stays like it was before, forever.

What do I have to do, to make Odin work after press Start?

I've tried to wipe cache, wipe data/factory reset, all possible options. Nothing works.

PS.:

1. Months ago, I've tried to root, but didn't happen. My S7 was ok after this, totally normal.

2. Yesterday I've turned OFF the Developers Option on my android. Right before battery get's 0% and die.

After that, I startet get that Custom Binary message crap.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] aalexandrou:
Hi everyone. I have had my Tilt for 4months now and it has given me a lot of joy. I have flashed and reflashed with no problems at all. I am currently using Schap's 4.31 Rom with 1.27.12.11 radio.

About a month ago i installed a new car stereo that has bluetooth connectivity with my phone - worked like a charm, paired very easily and generally appeared to be working with no probs.

Then i noticed that if i was in a bluetooth conversation and somebody else was calling (on call waiting), if i switched calls i could not hear anything, and if i ignored the second call, when the person on call waiting hang up, both conversations were terminated. I thought it was odd, but i just deactivated call waiting and thought, "let them try calling me later".

The other, a lot more serious problem, is that sometimes, randomly as far as i realised, the phone will go totally silent - incoming calls won't ring, and when i try to make a call, when i press "talk" then phone does not make that beep that it makes when an outgoing call is initiated. Should the person i call pick up i cannot hear them at all.

A soft reset takes care of this problem, but it has happened to me 3 times already, and i think it was after a bluetooth call.

Has anybody faced this problem before? I need to be available on the phone 24/7 due to my work and i really need to find a solution for this. Yesterday afternoon i took a nap for 45 minutes and had six missed calls that i never heard cause the phone never rang.

The phone is always on "ring" and at full volume.

Any ideas would be welcome.

Thanks

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] silverfoxx:
Same issue

I'm assuming since I also am facing this same problem that it is not uncommon. It seems to me that it happens after a bluetooth device is turned off. Somehow it sets the volume on everything to mute. I thought only a soft reset would fix it until I discovered that it was just shutting off the volume. Still annoying, though.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Scoobydoo5:
Tilt problems with phone going silent

This problem has occurred with my phone every since upgrading to the WM 6.1 and it is related to a bluetooth device being hooked up. Often when someone calls the ringer will go from vibrate to on, but the volume turns all the way off. It will then cycle to off completely. The cycling occurs when a call comes in or when I hang up. I can stop this problem from happening by disconnecting the bluetooth head set. I have tried three different headsets and the problem occurs with all of them (Jawbone I, Jawbone II, and Plantronics) so I know it is not the brand of headset. HTC said to try a download of a screen dimmer problem, but have not done that yet. Anyone have any better advice?

I have the same issue, even when using software that accesses the GPS via bluetooth port. Muting is irritating, but at least voicemail catches messages.

HTC Tytn II bluetooth causes silent setting

I too have had the issue where my phone will go into total silent mode after using my bluetooth stereo hands-free feature. It doen't happen after using my bluetooth headset though.

It happens pretty regular that after using the bluetooth hands-free of my JVC car stereo that when I take the phone elsewhere it is totally silent. no ringer, no alarm (Ptravel alarm is what I use), no audio if I make a call (or receive a call).

It also will cause the phone to be silent on subsequent calls on the bluetooth stereo hands-free: ie: I take a call, hang up and another call will come in and I can answer it but have no audio.

My Tytn II is running the HTC (AT&T) WM 6.1 upgrade. The only thing I have done is use the Advanced configuration manager and the Kaiser tweak to change a few settings for performance and visual enhancements.

I see others are having the same problems.....Has anyone else used the tweaks and maybe that is root of the problem?

Has anyone discovered a fix (really important). My only options are to soft reset every time I get out of the car or not use the JVC bluetooth capability (which is why I replaced the stock radio in the first place).
