[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The-Dark-Knight:
Hi guys,

an old friend still has no smartphone. So I decided to prepare him my old S5.

Basically it only needs to run social Apps like Signal/Facebook. Mic and Camera should have no issues so he doesn't need my help every week...

Was able to install said Apps on Stock 6.0.1 But the Phone seems laggy compared to modern phones/OS. Saw Videos of LineageOS 18.1 running way smoother.

My question now:

Which ROM is the one I want?

Stock? A stockbased CR? Lineage 18.1 stable? Other?

Thx alot!
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tuddynumnums:
Tried a bunch its a little laggy but the unoffical lineage android 12 one has great battery life its just not the best for games, Don't do the Ultra Slimmed Wiz thingy it has trouble even playing videos with VLC, and for stability with games but less battery life the offical version of lineage or crdroid or something.
[Black Shark 4 Pro] Zohebkaka:
Hey guys, I'd like to know the long term review of BLACK SHARK 4PRO and 5PRO. What are the problems faced and mainly how is the battery life. As I confused which one to buy?
[Black Shark 4 Pro] Zohebkaka:
And how frequent is the software updates and does it solve problems or just leaves bugs?
[Black Shark 4 Pro] ksbwings:
I'm using BS4Pro [CN ROM 16/512GB]

Pros::-

System:

* Faster & Stable System

- Frequent update for system patches

- System consumes almost 4.5GB RAM [no appz] & 6.0 GB [with appz]

Software:

- G-apps are working

* MIUI Battery Optimization

- Second space feature and more

- Security & permission in-depth per app

* Dynamic Theme feature/battery are well-optimized

Hardware:

* Well-optimized gaming & emulation

* RL triggers are programmable

* Clean/quality sound speaker

* 3.5mm Jack Audio port

* OTG USB/SSD

* HDMI-Out (Cable/Docking)

* Fastest Transferbit (R/W 2.9/2.1GB)

* Fast Response Finger-Unlocking

- 64MB-shot camera quality is acceptable.

* Document-shot (A4 page) is accurate edge compared to galaxy note.

Battery:

* Fastest charger (within 17min) with auto-discharge feature

* Well-optimized per appz. (Xiaomi feature)

Cons ::-

System:

Up to Android 11/Joy 12.8

[so far, No Android 12, unlike OnePlus/Huawei/samsung]

Software:

- No full-ROM update

- No full-ROM available officially to download

- No BL unlock feature permission yet

- No root dev support

- 16GB/512GB [still in CN language for recovery mode]

Hardware:

- Lighting-effect feature is average looking & battery consumable.

Battery:

- Too much heat (49C) during hyper-charge 120W [for 17min only, then it gradually drop-out].

Final score.

85/100 [due to no root & Official frequent full-ROM to download]
[Black Shark 4 Pro] Zohebkaka:
Thank you so much for your wonderful detail reply KSBWINGS. Really appreciate it. How long have you been using it? And I so wish they had 512gb for international version as well.

One thing that I have noticed is that ANDROID software updates on Gaming phones are very slow. As at the moment I am using ASUS ROG 1 which is still on Android 9. But the system is stable, I hardly recall when I got the security or any update last time. But still the games and apps are working fine.
[Black Shark 4 Pro] ksbwings:
I'm using it for 1yr for now.

FYI, android's new version is RAM-demand [Let's say 700MB-1GB to occupied]... & cheapest gaming phone starts from 8GB (which is not enough after 4 months of usage). However, the manufacturer is supposed to provide a Full ROM update for gaming phones with higher RAM such 12/16Gb as a feature, which is also good for their business income, I presume.

As for the slowness on phone generally, whether you are using ROG/BS/RM .. etc. You need to tweak your permission per app & battery optimization to preserve some free RAM if Andriod 9 allows it. Otherwise, better to root an older phone, to get complete control of your setting and remove bloatware / autostart / permission per app.
[Black Shark 4 Pro] Zohebkaka:
Thank you for your reply. Yes what you said is true. And that's a nice long time you have been using. How the battery life in general use?
[Black Shark 4 Pro] ksbwings:
Battery is fine, just tweak and optimize your setting as you like.

Battery lasts less than 1 day [Manufacture default setting/144Hz/ ... etcs].

Battery lasts less than 7hr [Heavy gaming].

Battery lasts 1-2 days, [60Hz/tweaking MIUI battery optimization/Permission per app].
[Black Shark 4 Pro] Zohebkaka:
Thanks a ton bro. Now lastly as a user suggestion. I am looking out for BS 5PRO as well. Or should I just save fee bucks and go for BS 4PRO. I am aware of all the differences between CPU, GPU, camera, audio jack and the software versions etc
[Black Shark 4 Pro] ksbwings:
It's your choice. If you are able to pay the difference buck without effecting your life responsibility, Just Go for the newer version. Otherwise, stuck to pervious version .... since the difference in spec are NOT that major/fancy even with "CPU/Camera". Causally , few months later you will hear also company release 5s ... all those fancy names :sneaky:. It never end. Just look for your needs

&& Best of luck with your choice. ENJOY :)(y)
[Black Shark 4 Pro] Zohebkaka:
Alright brother, I noted that. Thank you so much once again

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Hades0214:
Hello, I would like to ask if anyone has any way to change the region of my Note 10+.

I got my refurbished Note 10+ (N975U1) some time ago online and I found that Samsung Pay is showing US ads and deal as such.

I currently am living in Malaysia and know that the version common around here is the Exynos version (N975F).

Would appreciate feedback or tips given, Thanks.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] themagicalmage22:
1. Does it have Google services on the Chinese version so we can use the Play Store?

2. What issues does the CN rom have when you're using it outside of China? Does it support 5G in your place?

3. How has the battery been with light usage (social media, YT, music, reading) and heavy usage (gaming for hours, high brightness most of the time)?

4. If you were to flash the Global rom version in the CN version, can you receive OTA's?

5. How great is the display? Do you feel the 1440p LTPO 2.0 difference? Is it readable under direct sunlight?

6. How good does the cameras, both rear and front, take photos?

7. Is the Steel Black version more durable than the Paper White?

8. Has anyone tried underclocking the CPU in exchange for more battery?

Thank you for those who will reply. I hope the future buyers or owners of this device will use this a guide when it does have answers.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] BLUuuE83:
1. Yes

2. Haven't experienced anything so far. Don't have 5G

3. Light usage has been at least 6hrs SOT but Accubattery says 10hrs SOT estimated. I'm running 120Hz and have underclocked my CPU and GPU with FKM. I don't game so I can't give any info about that.

4. Yes

5. It's works fine under sunlight. 120Hz is a must for me now that I've experienced it. LTPO2 preferred since it can drop the refresh rate to save battery

6. I don't take photos often but with GCam it works good enough for me

7. Most people use a case so I doubt this matters

8. Yes, see 3.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] themagicalmage22:

On 2, do you not have 5G because your country or sim doesn't support it, or is it because the phone doesn't let you have 5G?
[Realme GT 2 Pro] BLUuuE83:
I'm not on a 5G plan but I don't see why it wouldn't work since it has all the bands needed for 5G
[Realme GT 2 Pro] hoangoanh:
Yes, its support 5G, in my country 5G work almost fine
[Realme GT 2 Pro] Deleted member 1755208:
for you to use 5g, u need 5g plan, also 5g sim

if your network provider provides 5g

if not, your phone will use 4g

your phone will not use 5g, if your mobile provider doesn't provide or support 5g

i have 5g check photo

Hi I just got the device and it's heating up real good. I just got it out the box and fiddled with the settings and it heat up badly. It's currently updating, but I wanted to ask how you underclocked your CPU and GPU? Is it rooted? If yes, how did you root it? If not, how did you do it?

Any Asphalt 8 racers out there? After update 53 dropped a few days ago, Visual Quality settings on my ROG 5 is stuck at Medium and limited to 30 fps. It's un-playable now.

Previously it was possible to force high fps by editing gameoptions.json but no longer... I'm suspecting it's related to some of the Safetynet workarounds but I can't figure it out. My build props look normal from what I can see.

Hi guys,

I have this wonderfull galaxy s20fe, huawei watch gt2 pro and kenwood car bt. issue.

Before this phone i had huaweu p30 and had no issue.

Everytime you call or get a call, you need to choose kenwood bt from tiny arrow and then you can talk on kenwood headset which is very dangerous.

I have tried many health app versions, tried to re-pair devices in different order and only time everyhing is working, is, when the watch is not connected.

I would like to retain ability of my watch to get and do calls( I know it can be turned off)

Do you mastermind's have any tryout or solution to this stupid but annoying problem?

Thank you in advance
[OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers] Mogster2K:
Yesterday I was listening to a podcast when it suddenly stopped and my earbuds disconnected. The phone appeared to be dead - nothing happened when pressing or long-pressing the power button, and the screen would not turn on. After getting home, I found out it's not completely dead because my PC recognizes it if I plug it in. However, some of the settings seem to have been reset since I no longer have ADB access or bluetooth pairings. It seems to be connected to wifi tho.

So... what are my options? I would like to recover what I can from the storage. The only thing I can think to do right now is let the battery run out (it's not like I can turn it off anyway) and see if anything changes.

From there it was then able to restart normally and I haven't had any issues since.

Free or pay rom
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Tangotime:
I've been using this rom since VIP3.

I can safely say that the rom is fast, responsive with improved battery life.

In addition to alot of tweaks to play with to improve the overall experience, and also the ability to have different performance profiles that can save you battery. Not to mention the sound customizations that implement a handy new dolby system with many tweaks to your choice، allow you to use sound booster apps (Not working on stock) and most importantly V4A is completely compatible which is a big bonus to alot of users.

The only disadvantage is that it's is a pay rom. Or not ?

The ROM will continuously pop up an annoying message in Chinese to remind you to buy the rom.

But a workaround to this is to simply set all your favorite tweaks using their "Soul" app while you can still access it on the first week.

So you have a full week to play around and choose your permanent settings on their app.

And once you set your tweaks, they will stick you will never have the need to access them again. And even better, the annoying message to buy the ROM will disappear.

In a nutshell I really recommend this fun ROM and even tried to buy it to no avail.

Worth a shot guys!
