[Nokia 6.1 Plus (X6) Questions & Answers] Fazz1977:
Personal opinion here... avoid the Nokia. Having owned several Xiaomi devices and recently the Nokia 6.1 plus, my old Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro was superior to this device in every way. Stock android unfortunately means all the bugs Google don't fix before shipping the OS, including the disastrous Bluetooth voice bug, are present in Android 9. I've just shipped my 6.1 plus back to the seller and will be buying a Redmi Note 6 Pro as soon as I get my refund.

Short answer, the 6.1 plus is rubbish. Get a redmi.
[Nokia 6.1 Plus (X6) Questions & Answers] GuestK00235:
Software experience is just okaish until you uninstall evenwell stuff through ADB, There's guides all over the internet and im also happy to help! It's just the usual stock android with Nokia's blue accent color and a few custom gestures under about phone section.

Performance is great! SD636 is great chipset. It does get hot in regions with high ambient temperatures, But cools down relatively fast so no issues I guess.

The bundled charger is decently fast in charging the phone, I consistently get 1:40Mins of charging time. But it heats up the phone to very high temps, like 52°C. Using Huawei's quick charger or MI's fast charger doesn't heat up the device this much.

The battery is acceptable. I get 4Hrs SOT always or when i game 2:30 - 3:30Mins depending on temperature (high temps = Lower battery life). If you use it frugally(Battery Saver on all the time, Using apps that doesn't keep refreshing) You can get 7Hrs SOT.

Camera is straight up bad when compared to other brands - Detail is lost when you zoom in, Oversaturates and overexposes stuff. You can download GCam(which i personally recommend you do so).

Build quality is very good. Overall quality levels are nice and

Premium.

I've used a Xiaomi phone, for quite a bit and it had been alright but i much prefer this Nokia. Xiaomi makes good phones no doubt but stock android is stock android :p

I cannot wait until Nokia lets us unlock the bootloader, I need to try out the Dot OS ROM for this phone. If you wanna unlock the bootloader, there are paid services that does it.

Thank you everyone for your answers, did you guys get the charging port issue?
[Nokia 6.1 Plus (X6) Questions & Answers] Fazz1977:
No charge port issues with mine, just non-functioning bluetooth voice in my car, which is a deal breaker for me. Shipped my Nokia back yesterday, back using my old slow LG G3, but bluetooth works in the car now and I've got a notification light, which I missed terribly on the Nokia.
[Nokia 6.1 Plus (X6) Questions & Answers] kmaljane:
I use bluetooth sometimes to listen to music on my kitchen speakers, not a deal breaker for me
[Nokia 6.1 Plus (X6) Questions & Answers] GuestK00235:
No charging port issues on my device, Having it for 3 months. Just ensure you plug the USB slowly and plug it out slowly.

I haven't had problems with playing Bluetooth music in my car too.
[Nokia 6.1 Plus (X6) Questions & Answers] mttca:
Having my Nokia 6.1p for two months. The only charging port issue to me is its sharp edge. Not pleasant at all to touch.

I like the look and feel of this Nokia (except the above mentioned) and its lightweight. However when using it I miss the bigger screen size of the Xiaomi Note 5 Pro.

Another annoying UI items are the ugly touch bar buttons. Cannot understand why Google's developers could draw such disgusting icons.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Questions & Answers] rameshshenoi3055:
Can some one help me in making the difference between end and silent mode in MIUI 10? In both the modes, media is not muted. I can hear sound from Chrome browser. In silent mode, all calls are muted.

I want to make the phone completely silent, not even a sound from media, browser, or calls.
[General Questions and Answers] somewhereinbetween9:
As far as I've read, Android prevented apps accessing MAC Address programmatically after Marshmallow and only provided 02:00:00:00:00:00

But I recently installed two apps, Phone Info (with package name "org.vndnguyen.phoneinfo" ) and Device ID (with package name "com.goodappsandgames.deviceinfo") that were both able to show the correct MAC Address.

Is this normal or something to do with my OEM?

I'm using a Galaxy Note 8 N-950U on Oreo.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
It's probably because the apps you are talking about are designed to retrieve the actual underlying hardware information from your device that other apps are usually unable to retrieve.
[General Questions and Answers] somewhereinbetween9:
Thanks, but if that's so, what is the point of Google claiming to harden / restrict access to MAC address? If these apps can retrieve it, how can I know other apps don't?

I had read stuff about MAC address being retrievable from IPv6, but I would expect Google to block such a method too.

BTW, the apps report to use API v26 and v27.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
I'm no expert, I could be completely wrong.

I just know that those apps are designed to identify what is "actually" there instead of what is "supposedly" there. Maybe the difference is they do their work at the kernel level and other apps only work at the software level. The kernel level is more closely associated with your hardware than the software level is.

If you think about it, the way devices are coded, we are not "supposed" to be able to access the system partition, yet we do, because have a way around this "block" that we call root and that is achieved by finding vulnerabilities at the kernel level. This is, in effect, no different than some apps accessing information that others can't, it's just a matter of using the right coding to penetrate the "block".

Restart to recovery/bootloader don't work. The tablet restarts to OS in both cases. (dev menu -> advanced restart)

I'll post more bugs as I'll find them.

Quick update:

2018-04-21

Fixed reboot to recovery and bootloader from reboot menu

Fixed long time to wake up screen

Fixed Deep sleep
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] martimor:
Thank you. The 15.1 built was amazing already.

Do we have to flash new gaaps when upgrading?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] tomas.vala:
I have upgraded from latest 15.1. Some observations:

Vibration does not work for me in the initial 16.0 release.

Longer wake up time (i see it's fixed in new built).

I also didn't realize 15.1 gapps are not compatible with 16.0 so after upgrading just the LOS I experienced gapps crash fest. It's better after installing MindTheGaps9 but now launches and crashes some silly Pixel Phone wizard app on almost every transition to home screen, preventing opening home screen. There is a workaround getting to home screen by using history button and clicking on background. Some apps failed to start, like Youtube but reinstallation healed the issue.

System seems to be nice, smooth and responsive. Very nice upgrade.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Catscratch:
Of course.

Upgrade process should look like this:

- create a backup!!!

- wipe system, cache, dalvik

- flash los 16

- flash open gapps for pie (i use Pico)

- optional: flash your root solution (I use magisk)

- sign boot

- reboot
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Mhden2x:
How can I have expanded notifications guys? Is the option removed?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Armando Lopez:
Hey dude, thanks for your great work, everything's working fine, but I have a problem when try to screen mirroring to my tv because every time I do the tablet crash and restart... Can you fix it please? In lineage 15 doesn't have that problem. Thanks in advance.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] lu99ke:
Man, you are a legend!! Working great!! Thankyou sooooo much!

In regards to vibration not working... Mine is working but it is very light when say pressing home button. Working but much lighter vibration than before.

I use Gboard so I can just increase that vibration fine.

Thanks again!!

Is there any Dolby Atmos mod that works?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Mhden2x:
Guys, can you find "ambient display"? There's no option in Setings> Display, but if you search in Settings, 2 results appear with no use unfortunately :(
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] wbn1:
There's a LiveDisplay in settings. I think it's the same thing.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Mhden2x:
Well, I just want to have the display turned on when a notification arrives.

LiveDisplay is Day/Night color tweak etc... Ambient Display is that option to have the display turned on when notifications arrive/ when you pick up the tablet etc.

The weird thing is that if you use search in settings, you can see that the option is there somewhere. But when you tap it you go nowhere :eek::confused:
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] wbn1:
Ah sorry. I've never used Ambiend display before and I tought that they might be the same thing.

Same bug with Rotate lockscreen.

If anyone find a Google Camera app that works, please post it in the topic. Thanks
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Palm Trees:
Thanks for bringing Pie to the Tab 3 8 Plus :)
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Mhden2x:
I noticed that not all notifications from twitter appear with this ROM comparing with 15.1... So I thought I could return to 15.1 by wiping Cache/ Dalvik/ System and flashing the Oreo ROM + Gapps. Unfortunately Android started booting but ended up in TWRP. Most probably full wipe is needed.

So I decided to flash Pie again! I wiped cache/ dalvik/ system, flashed LOS 16 + Gapps, rebooted.. this time it booted to Android normally, but now I have no notifications from any app at all! Yikes! Any clues guys?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] ManuCE2:
Good morning.

Thanks for all.

I have a problem. I installed the new LineageOS 16.0 but the wifi does not activate. When active it is deactivated by itself. Thanks for your help.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Vicky khan:
This rom is not for your device.

It's for Lenovo Tab 3 8 Plus (TB-8703F/X/R/N) or Lenovo P8 Tablet.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Catscratch:
I can confirm that wifi disconnects happen but it's very rare. I also you this device for online gaming and would say, it depends on the game. At least for me it have no issues. I only had disconnects when using YouTube (but it's buffered anyway).

I started playing star trek online and it also buffers small disconnects so I had no issues there.

And I don't know any other stable rom out there. Besides this rom I would they there is no other rom. The device I simply not very common and don't have a big user base.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Vicky khan:
I just flashed the rom, so far everything's good except the camera app *capture button* slightly misplaced & battery with normal usage is best for me but with pubg it drains alot faster (hope I'd sort this out somehow).

WiFi is working fine for me no disconnection for now.

Using Magisk/Viper/Dolby with it. :fingers-crossed:

Hi everyone,

For the Lenovo tab3 8 plus (tb-8703f) Can someone please tell me if you are happy with the LineageOS 16.0? or which one you recommend to install (puporse: Reading PDF, Youtube, epsxe)? since I still have the original room and I tired of issues.

Thank you so much for your time.

Hey I really need pie rom for lenovo tab 3 850f will this work? And if I install it what errors can I get ? Right now my tablet is running on lineage os 14.1
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] moses_dx:
still the best rom for p8 tablet, android 10 was too buggy to handle
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Catscratch:
Clean or dirty flash? Try this wipe dalvik and cache again.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] ManuCE2:
I did a clean install. I also flashed the original rom with QFIL and then flashed the TWRP (signed) and the 16. But it doesn't go ..
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] lu99ke:
Silly question... You don't have do not disturb on do you?

Otherwise, I would try re-installing and then doing

A wipe again after the install.

My notifications all working fine so I assume it's been an corruption in the install somehow
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Mhden2x:
The first time my notifications worked fine too. I guess some files must have been messed after trying 2-3 times, but it is weird. "Do not disturb" is off, that was my first idea too.

Otherwise the ROM is really snappy. Feels great. If only I could have "expanded notifications" and the screen turning on when a notification arrives!
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Catscratch:
OK strange. I don't know. Wifi is working great for me.

You could try to clean flash again.

I dirty flashed from 15.1 to 16. If nothing helps you could try flashing 15.1 first and upgrade to 16 (dirty).

Can you confirm that wifi is working with 15.1?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] ManuCE2:
Good news. It works.

I have again installed the Rom Stock via QFIL. Then I flashed the Twrp and then the Lineage 16. I did the Dalvik / Cache cleaning and then Sign ... Thanks

Hi,

thanks for your awesome work. The tablet realy works great, i only found one error... it seems not to save the time and date ... if you turn off wifi and sim card the date will always reset it does not get saved.... can you please fix that ?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] lestatab:
Works great! Thanks a lot! This room with the Morpho Profiles/Thermals is excelent... just in some cases there is a lag becauses the wifi connection. This is a rom issue because happen with a clean flash without any app or modification, just the clean rom and the games (weak WiFi window/popup, lag the game and 1 second works again ok).
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] senthilvigneshkumar:
Can we do these from twrp of 15.1? Or QFIL is the only option?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] caylak1907:
I got wifi problem too. Tablet couldnt find any wifi.. then i read the forum and wipe it again. But now i have bigger problem..

Anything i want to do with twrp, always got the error : Failed to mount '/firmware' (invalid argument)

[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Catscratch:
You can do this from twrp directly. No need to use qfil again.

[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Catscratch:
First step would be to flash twrp recovery. Use the one from op. Not the official from twrp website.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] caylak1907:
I flash the twrp.. I have stock rom and twrp now. whats next ?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] wbn1:
Same here. Not on games but just browsing internet/youtube.

If you flashed the Special TWRP build from OP, you should format dalvik/cache/system/data/internal storage. After that you can install the ROM. When the ROM is finished installing, you'll get the option to Sign boot.

You need to sign boot also if you install Magisk at some point.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] lu99ke:
That does happen a lot no matter what card you put in... Always got that message with non lineage devices with similar cards... Never really noticed lag though... Did it happen on 15.1 or just now with 16?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] wbn1:
Happens on 16. I also installed crdroid pie and los 14.1 to test this and I get the same message. Also I noticed that some file explorers don't detect the internal expansion, it might be because they don't read vFAT.

Can't find install instructions?

Is it just me or I cannot find install instructions? I have flashed twrp on the device, following https://xdaforums.com/general/general/twrp-lenovo-p8-tb-8703f-tb-8703x-t3689442 that guide. Now I want to install LinageOS 16.0. What steps should I take?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] lu99ke:
Assuming your TWRP has worked, you have done the hard part.

Download your desired ROM ( lineage OS )... And save it to SD card...

If you want google services get GAPPs as well - google "open GAPPs " and save to SD card too. ( Suggest micro or Pico )

Once you have those two saved, boot into TWRP.

The go to "wipe" and " advanced wipe" and select to wipe Dalvik / ART Cache,

Edit.. i lost the rest of my post... So...

Once you have wiped... Go to "install" and select the lineage zip file you saved to your SD card.

Once it is installed ... You need to " sign boot"

One you have done that re-boot I to system.. first time will take a while...

Then go back into TWRP and follow same process to install your GAPPs - but you won't need to do a wipe.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] caylak1907:
there is no sign boot option on twrp -> advance.. but finally i did it..

I installed stock rom 2 more times and try it again and again. I think RM encyrpt... something work for me.

Thank you for your help and new OS on my tablet !!!
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] wbn1:
You need the TWRP version from OP. Install it with your current twrp. Chose image when selecting files in twrp as the file has .img extension.

Idk why but netflix is not compatible with my tablet, i can not download it..
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] Palm Trees:
If it says that in Playstore, you can get the .apk from https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/netflix-inc/netflix/netflix-6-26-1-build-15-31696-release/ because the one from Netflix' site (requires an Android version between 4.4 (Kit Kat) and 7.1.2 (Nougat) https://help.netflix.com/en/node/57688
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] lu99ke:
Yes you can.. that's what I did.. but I don't think it is an android 9 issue as it works on my phone.

I assume it recognises that it is lineage OS and therefore a "modified" system... Even if it is not modded.

Just use the .apk file as above and you will be fine... But only get from apk mirror not some other dodgy site.
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] greatbal:
I don't have that issue. I'm using 05102019 build and an A2 certified sandisk card. Using my card as internal storage now. With apps stored on the card i don't notice any slowdowns on opening and running those apps. So you may want to invest on faster cards.

Btw, thanks for this rom. Thanks for keeping our devices updated! ?
[Thinkpad Tablet Android Development] wbn1:
Yeah well one of those cards is U3 and good for 4K so I thought it would be good enough.

Also a small bug.. UI gets a bit buggy if you for whatever reason need to use a mouse. The first icon on the homescreen and drawer gets a selection square at the first mouse clicking. When you click inside some apps, for example Newpipe or Relay for Reddit, you'll get a greyish tint all over the screen, like there's selection square but for the whole screen. In both instances it goes away with a finger tap on the screen, but once you do a mouse click the bug comes back. Tested with two wired mice.

LE: ok so using a mouse causes a bunch of other different issues. Avoid
