Just learned from the telegram channel that "our" developer for ginkgo/willow has to focus his time for exams, thus let us be patient and let us cross our fingers for him so that he will (hopefully) later find the time to share the 03 update for our devices.

Used to have a new updated version with lots of new features twice a month. but now we're getting it almost every 2 months.

Also, cast screen disconnects a lot, and makes the device very slow.

Partial screenshot doesn't work properly, and good to have long screenshot too.

An option to change date and time color in status bar.

Big circle battery icon.

Thanks anyway.

Other Android 11 roms have MIUI camera and portrait and 48MP works.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] bmark240:
People here need to stop whining. The developer is pretty busy these days with various exams. He still develops, people should be aware that developers have lives too. Also there is this little thing that you might of heard about. SARS Cov2 (Covid 19).

I test for the developer and he did build V5, but like a few of the recent ROM builds, he is syncing sources with the Android 11 blobs.

There were a couple of problems getting Ril sorted with new MIUI firmware and a few denials which were giving headaches.

MIUI camera is there within the build and will be provided on the next build V6. The developer didn't want to release anything with too many errors, so decided that V6 release would be more stable. This will allow more time to build a smoother build. His bespoke kernel based on Quicksilver V2 is much better now that it has WALT.

[General Questions and Answers] catraxor:
I dropped my Galaxy J7 Pro. At first the screen started dying with a small black spot on the bottom left corner, then it spread nearly to the whole screen. Now when I press the Home button, all I see are flashes and sometimes I can barely see the time and battery info. There are no cracks or scratches on the screen. The touchscreen still works, it still registers touch inputs. I can still pick up when someone calls.

I'm going to get it fixed but I know almost nothing phone repair. So I thought I'd ask around so I don't get duped. What should a fix like this normally cost? Would it be an easy fix, like something they could do on the spot or would it take long? Thanks.

take out battery for a little while then start again. You may have to reflash an os. If you have a smaller sd card (2gb or smaller) then use the sd card method. This only works if you have updated your SPL to 2.10 olipro or Hard SPL.

I bought an Edge to Edge tempered glass from good mobile accessory shop and got it fitted in my Mi10 by a professional technician there itself.After a week or so there developed one or two air bubbles in the screen and they began to grow big covering half of my screen.So I approached the shop again and they repalaced the glass with a new one.After about 2 weeks there began to develop air bubbles again and they growing in size gradually.My had not dropped anywhere from me or others.So what is the reason for this?If I replace the tempered glass with a Screen Protector film,can the developing of air bubbles be completely prevented?Aso will this actually protect the phone screen glass from breaking in the event of a fall?Can anyone suggest a good quality Tempered glass and good quality Scree Protector Film?
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Accessories] Mackay53:
It will offer some protection but if the phone lands a certain way the screen is going to crack regardless of what you've got on.

I just used a basic film one but the fingerprint is a bit crap. Glass ones never fitted right.
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Accessories] hoodlumfird:
Hey you can try using Siege Glastimate+ for Galaxy S20+. It's a UV glue tempered glass. Price is quite high but it is really case friendly tbh bc im using the glass with my Ringke Fusion-X casing with no problem. And also the tempered glass has no touch issues whatsoever bc it is a UV glue not like normal tempered glass with edge only glue. And for the back panel I'm using a cheap carbon fibre sticker to avoid scratches haha
[Xiaomi Mi 10 Accessories] tlxxxsracer:
I bought the one from *******.. to much of my surprise it actually is quite good.

Installation was easy with an included guide/holder. The film has 2 parts that lets you apply the top half first then the bottom.

It's super thin, like what you'd see from the factory. The TPU film is also really smooth.

[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] Tiptac:
Hi guys,

Have a question for those who have access to the new Pixel 5. I'm currently using a Pixel 3 and am considering an upgrade to the new Pixel 5. But I'm concerned with the Snapdragon 765G that they have decided to put into this phone. From my understanding the 765G performs slower when compared to the 845 found in the Pixel 3. And even the camera sensors are the same between the 2 phones. So I'm just wondering if the upgrade is worth it or if I should wait for next year.

Has anyone had any issues when it comes to the processing speed of the 765G?
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] Mdizzle1:
Obviously very early doors to try and compare them but...

I have a pixel 3xl and the pixel 5.

Feels the exact same for everything I've tried with it with a couple of exceptions.

Pixel 3XL is slightly quicker opening the edit menu on portrait shots.

Pixel 5 is definitely holding more apps in RAM so less time spent relaunching apps

90hz screen is lovely and makes it feel like the pixel 5 opens and processes things quicker. In reality it's taking the same time, just looks better doing it

Not tried anything more challenging yet like color grading 4k video yet, but I'll try it out later

Pixel 5 camera is better in low light, especially the portrait shots. The wide angle also looks great nearly on par with main shooter

[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] Mdizzle1:
No lag taking photos at all took loads earlier without issue. Just a bit of delay in the photos app to process. Same as pixel 3.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] sbtm1337:
I have a Pixel 5 now and I have my old Pixel 3 still here.

What can I say?... The only things I like about the Pixel 5 better are better battery life, more RAM and aluminium body.

The screen is not brighter, it even seems to have a more yellow-ish tint while the Pixel 3 display was just bright white (side to side comparison with full display brightness).

The speakers are awful, especially the one under the glass. It sounds so tinny and has very low volume, I have serious problems hearing the caller when it's getting a bit louder around me. The "stereo speakers" are a joke when watching a video. compared to the down firing speakers the one under glass is barely audible.

The full screen display is not very convenient for daily usage imo. I always tend to "hold" the phone on the chin bezel with my pinky finger and it happens often that it touches the screen and closes the app or changes to a different one.

As good as the P5 feels in the hand, and how good the camera is..... I like my P3 (not xl) more in the end. I even like the P3's bezels more than the full screen of the P5. (and I still didn't get over the punch hole for the camera)
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] Mdizzle1:
Interesting to hear about your screen brightness. My P5 is quite a bit brighter than my 3XL when both on max brightness. Both are white with no sign of tint. Maybe you have a bad panel?

Speaker under the glass on my P5 is also poor.

I get the bezels points I had gotten used to having the chin and the notch to hold onto!
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] sbtm1337:
After some more testing I would say that the P5 doesn't have a slight yellow tint but the P3 (not XL) has a blue tint. I think now the P5 display looks a bit more natural.

Surprisingly both displays look the same in Nightlight Mode.

I just hope there will be an update to fix the speaker's low volume.

The 90Hz display isn't a big deal as I thought. I can use my P3 without even noticing the difference in normal usage (of course I notice it when I look for the differences). I think the P5 would be fine with 60Hz, or they should've gone for 120Hz.

Battery life so far is fantastic. (compared to the P3)
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] Mdizzle1:
Can't see them changing the speaker volume much to be honest.

On screen refresh I guess everyone is different. My P5 is a lot smooth than my 3XL when scrolling Twitter. If I compare the P5 to my friends S20 on 120hz I can't see a difference. On my PC though I can tell the difference between 120 and 144hz! Maybe the size of the screen makes it less obvious to me?
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] sbtm1337:
yes, when using side by side it's absolutely noticable.

I wanted to say that it's not that important to me when it comes to normal daily usage, because I just don't notice it anymore (or I don't give it attention anymore after a while).

I also have a 144Hz display for my computer, and that is a difference you can always tell, without having a 60Hz display side by side with it. But I think the G-Sync (or any sync technology) here is the more important feature.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] htc-rocks:
Absolutely couldn't agree more with everything you said.

If my pixel 3 didnt have a broken camera and charging port I'd keep it.

Battery lasts about twice as long on the PIxel 5 - I miss the "blue'ish" screen and "2-button" mode though.
