[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] xphyle1971:
But the point is that NUBIA doesn't care! They just want to put the most powerful specs on a device and sell it for dirt cheap. They have no intention to fix the problems! They have a very poor track record for software support!

The source code is now available. Hopefully the first custom rom will come out soon.

Nice to see that the custom ROM's developers have something to work with!

Let's see if this is going to a good path.

[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] VZTech:
Looking forward to it. Tons of bugs in 3.08. Wish Nubia would have left rom on NA edition stock like the RM3 And 3S. Any possibility of them doing that?
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Orion9k0:
I don't know too much about custom ROM development, but now that the kernal source is available, could a decent custom ROM be possible (such as Lineage)? If so, I would contribute some $ towards a bounty for a decent ROM.

Edit: Also, with the Kernal source released, is there anything else a dev would specifically need from Nubia in order to start work on a custom ROM? Maybe we could petition Nubia if something else is req... Letting devs tinker and make custom ROMS was how OnePlua got so big
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] raumyasarkar:
So I got the chance to update to 3.11 looks like some issues are fixed.

[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] zayidhs:
Nubia tech guy told us that 3rd party launcher is in the works for the next version.

Also, Netflix L1 is being worked on.

I am on Chineese version and got only thr point with missing NFC. Using swisscom on switzerland. To all potentially new customers i recommend buying the CN version.

I would like to add two things.

1. While taking screenshot the share option always fails to share.

2. This one is a bit different but. The cyclic macro in gamespace is pretty much useless because if I click anything else. It stops the cycle. So, Is it possible to make the macro cycle continuously even when I am clicking on other things on screen? That would make the macro much useful. Thanks

with ADB

adb shell

settings put global force_desktop_mode_on_external_displays 1

settings put global force_allow_on_external 1

Reboot the phone and it's ok

You can install Sentio to have a full desktop environment, but with sentio, you have to disable force_desktop_mode_on_external_display (force_desktop_mode_on_external_display 0) to get it work properly

Have most of these software issues been fixed now where one could purchase this phone with confidence? Or still waiting for a lot of fixes?
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] nadejo:
It depends. If you put gaming performance over software functionality and visuals then yes.

The main problem is the launcher it cant be replaced. Nubia claims they are trying to fix it.

Also faceunlock will come soon as its available on the chinese rom.

Watching the past they didnt do allot on software optimization.

But it seems there is a bigger motivation now.

I think they will fix all software issues this year. But i can be wrong.

I dont care too much. It delivers the best gaming performance for me at that pricetag. So i cant complain.

I'm on NA version 3.11 (full wipe and install update.zip via stock recovery) and I have a very strange bug to report that a few other users have also noticed. This has been happening since day 1 of using my device (also happened on NA 3.08). At least a few times a day I'll unlock my phone, go into either Chrome or Samsung Internet Browser and when I go to a website the touch scrolling has zero momentum. Basically flick scrolling stops working and it stops immediately when I lift my finger off the display. This will happen no matter how many tabs I open or close. Scrolling remains normal in other apps including Firefox browser. What's very strange is the minute I do a back gesture, the scrolling goes back to normal in the Chromium browsers. I have already reported this bug to [MENTION=9092064]JerryYin[/MENTION]. Hopefully someone will have time to look into it.

1) Here's a clip of it happening https://mega.nz/file/qNBRFK5K#5vjH-CImb_5crth6tp9vusTK2ywCgsqZihau9rqIv2c

2) Here's a clip of me opening another tab, hitting back gesture and poof the bug is gone until the next time it happens https://mega.nz/file/nER1UKDY#L-mTLbujNmbOKVBhEOySs5YIYf70wYQ4y_rsVz457qo
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] nadejo:
This is a chrome issue. The screen has very fast response and chrome fails to trace the moment your finger stops the touch action when scrolling sometimes. As the touchscreen is so fast chrom thinks you scroll and stop scrolling. You can trace the touch ibput with devoptions and youll see its crazy how accurate the touchscreen is working.

Issues like these are common in android due fragmentation of the os. Its impossible to adapt all apps to all phones. Chrome maybe has some adaptions which cause problems on other phones.

These are not caused by the red magic 5g or the os.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] mhajii210:
I reported the issue to Google via Chrome feedback. We'll see if it ever gets fixed.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Byte Burner:
I was about to order it today. so what now!

I was about to buy it today. but now have a second thought.

because it is not about just gaming for me i also need the phone on day to day usage.

I guess the marked off issues has been fixed right ?

I really want to install Lineage OS on it but it seems not to be possible at the moment.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] mhajii210:
But how come same exact thing happens with Samsung Internet Browser or any other Chromium browser? How come the bug magically goes away when I do a back gesture? When it happens, the only way I've found to get rid of it is to either do a back gesture or turn the display off and back on. I can close all recent apps and it'll still do it unless I do a back gesture. Seems to me it's a ROM issue. Otherwise why would a back gesture make it go away? Very weird bug.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] JeankDragon:
Something very strange happens to me, I bought the 55wats charger, I used it once, and the next day I tried to load with the normal charger, which I think is 18, but it does not charge, it indicates that if it is doing it, however nothing happens.

I tried the charger on another phone and if it works, will there be any adjustments or anything regarding this? ideas? since all cables and chargers are tested everything is fine, even if I put the 55 again if you charge the phone.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] nadejo:
it can be chrome adapting to your touch input and missbehaving due the big difference compared to other brands.

im experiencing freezes in chrome which dissapear when i open recents for a sec. and also some random black frames. it cna be a rom issue yes. but i also noticed it doesnt happen on all websites.
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] mhajii210:
On my device when the momentum scrolling gets messed up it happens on all websites viewed on any Chromium browser. I've seen crashes and freezes many times on many different devices when using Chrome, but this is something very bizarre. I tried closing all recent apps, going into settings, apps and force closing Chrome, Android System WebView, clearing cache and data, force closing Nubia launcher, and no luck. Only thing that works is back gesture. I may have to get rid of the device soon since it's bad for my OCD. I keep thinking it might be a hardware issue since I seem to be the only one reporting this.

Local emergency alert making the phone crazy!

When the local government of Puerto Rico emmits an alert, let's say like for the lock down. The phone losses the carrier signal and stays offline (no calls no data) for about 30 minutes, every day since I noticed it has happened to my unit like clockworks... Is very disappointing that something so basic and vital in a communication device is failing. Can anyone help me or give me some clue? Plz.

[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] Anienol:
Issue of the emergency alerts is serious matter

I like the phone very much but this issue of the emergency alerts is a serious matter. It could be a life threatening issue, if there's a state of emergency of any kind and this communication device could not give or show any sing of the alert. On top of that the phone stays searching for signal for about 45 min no calls no data. That's my biggest concern about the device.

Trigger issue (defeats the purpose of this phone!)

Want to check if anyone else has this issue... When I play pubg for say couple hours the left trigger button starts malfunctioning. It either stays pressed of develops a delay in registering a press and hold (critical for those sniper headhots!). It's absolutely fine when I start gaming so maybe it's a heating/fan issue idk. This is my biggest gripe with the phone given I bought it for gaming. The last firmware update said it fixed a trigger problem but it didn't fix this. Help is appreciated

[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] MastaGman:
Anyone else having problem that 55watt charging will sometimes keep turning on and off over and over I think it might be an overheating precaution? As I usually try and charge after playing. It's not hardware issue because I can still get 55watt charging other times. Was just wondering if the phone being hot is the problem or if it's a bug?
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] JerryYin:
And also, the DRM level will stay on L3.

Plus, FP can be fixed by a special jig, which can be bought by contacting customer support. Or you can just mail your device back for recalibration
[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] ckt213:
Who're you responding to Jerry? Sorry I'm not all over acronyms.

You have any thoughts on the trigger issue? Should I wait for a software update to fix this or send device back for repair as most people have commented it's probably a HW issue?

Quick issues/suggestions so far for me:

1) Trust agent seems not to be working. To unlock without security in my house location and trusted devices like car BT.

2) Nova launcher (yes saw will be updated in next update).

3) Would be cool to have option for fan to work without gaming mode. Hot summers in car might need some extra cooling.

4) Turn on display on notification should turning on only amoled/text.

[Nubia Red Magic 5G / 5S Guides, News, & Discussion] enzone17:
I'm definitely having issues with my trigger buttons as well. Even after updating to 311 on my NA RedMagic 5G. The sensitivity settings don't seem to make a difference. I experience most of my issues in my sports games that require a pressure and release kind of motion on the trigger buttons. For example, in NBA 2K20, I can't assign the shoot button to a shoulder button because it only registers a single tap and not a long press and release. but if i use the button on the screen, it works just fine. That same NBA 2K20 game works flawless on my RedMagic 3S. So I'm not sure if its hardware related or its the Nubia Game software. Either way, it's sad that Nubia seemed to have it working flawless on the RedMagic 3S but the 5G manages to go backwards in performance. Some of the other games I play include, VR Tennis, MKX, Injustice, etc....and they all play fine as long as i don't assign any buttons to the shoulder triggers. But that defeats the purpose now of having shoulder trigger buttons. I'm waiting patiently to see if and when that gaming software gets updated.
