[Google Pixel 7 Pro] savaytse66:
First off, I just want to qualify that this is not intended to be a negative criticism of the device. In fact, as it is, it's actually quite great! So far, everything is smooth and generally responsive, my battery seems okay, camera is definitely the best I've had on a phone, and I like the size.

But...I'm coming off a Pixel 3 XL, and honestly, I do not find the experience to be much different. Other than the camera being a clear upgrade, everything else just seems...the same. As I sit here, I kinda feel like if I throw a new tempered glass screen protector on the 3 XL, I could get another year out of it. So far, at least in running speedtest, the 5G (Verizon) on the 7 Pro actually measured SLOWER than LTE on the 3XL. Apps certainly run slightly faster on the 7 Pro, but not THAT much faster.

I need to decide if the added storage (512 vs 128) and the upgraded camera are worth it. So far, to me anyway, everything else is just an incremental upgrade. The thing is, I'm not sure ANY other phone is really going to be any better.

This is clearly a great phone, I want to make sure I am clear on that. I am just wondering if anyone else coming from an older phone has a similar opinion.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] EtherealRemnant:
Yeah no. The 3 XL is dog slow. I have one. I can't stand using it. Just scrolling on a large webpage will make the thing stutter and grind to a halt, the battery is about half the 7 Pro, and it didn't even have enough RAM when it launched so forget about multitasking beyond one app. Meanwhile I was doing something in DuckDuckGo Privacy Browser yesterday and got distracted, jumped between 6 different apps, went back to DDG, and it didn't even reload the page. Even my OnePlus 9 with 8GB of RAM will reload after 2-3 apps.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] savaytse66:
All good points, and definitely not trying to compare the two as equals. I think maybe in the three+ years I was using the 3XL, I adapted my usage habits to make the most of it. I'm just trying to rationalize if the cost of the upgrade makes it worth it for me. I'll definitely be putting it through its paces over the next week. It's here to stay, as I am getting ready to package up the 3XL for trade, and I'll be looking forward to all the developments in rooting (which I did successfully yesterday with zero issue), customization, etc. And so far, the users in this forum seem to be great, so looking forward to being a part of it.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] EtherealRemnant:
I never could get used to how memory starved the 3 XL was. I bought one last August to tinker with (first Pixel) and I switched to it as my exclusive device for a few weeks but ended up going back to my 12 Pro Max until I got my OnePlus 9 in February because I just couldn't deal with the multitasking issues.

So far I'm very happy with my 7 Pro. I traded my 12 Pro Max in for it at Best Buy and after all their promos and the $200 in gift cards for preordering they ended up paying me about $84 to take it off their hands so it was a steal of a deal. I did notice Google was offering like $280 or something like that for my 3 XL and I thought about doing that to unload the thing but the 12 Pro Max deal with Best Buy was just too good. I'll keep the 3 XL as a backup I guess.

I'm sure you will fall in love with 7 Pro as you keep using it though, it's always pretty sweet when you get a new flagship when you're used to an older one.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] danw_oz:
3XL was the worst Google phone I have owned, was replaced three times, they had so many hardware issues, and slow laggy performance or lots of app crashing as mentioned. Made even the 6 Pro look amazing
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] msgranger12:
I'm so interested in the 7 Pro which is great and I've also ordered one exchanging my Pixel 6 for this. Are there any disadvantages in this phone?
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Alcibiade:
Quite interested and tempted.

But coming from a Xiaomi 11 Ultra I am worried by the combo high battery drain + slow charging (30W! Really?). Not even to mention the lackluster processor (outside its ML capabilities)

The camera is an upgrade but not a huge one. And the Xiaomi screen peaks at 1700nits without depleting the battery super fast like the 7 Pro does at 1500 nits.

Still I love the look of the phone, the pure Android experience, the excellent camera reviews. And the modem seems more reliable than the 6 Pro, which takes away an easy excuse to skip this phone!

As a second phone I own a Pixel 6a and it's pleasure to use. I can only imagine how good the 7 Pro may be.

So yeah hesitating... I may wait to see how the S23 Ultra and the Mi 13 Ultra perform to make a decision. In no rush to make the move, but the temptation is high :)
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Alcibiade:
It should beat your 6 in pretty much all departments. Especially the screen, modem and camera.

Not sure about the battery life though.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] AmyClaraRose:
Battery life after a few days is fine for me I've had the phone since Thursday and I only need to charge phone once a day and it lasts all day on max settings
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Alcibiade:
Great to hear.

If the battery drain is limited to outdoors when the screen maxouts in brightness (Like some studies are suggesting) then it's not too too bad.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] EtherealRemnant:
Battery has been pretty good for me too. I had some outsized standby drain because I was in a fringe signal area for a few days but here's my averages since I got the thing on Thursday.

View attachment 5737335

It's definitely an all day phone for me most days.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] msgranger12:
Yes, this is great thanks for the info! Battery life is an issue but it will be resolved in future updates. Also, I work a 9-5 job and I won't be using my phone a lot so the battery life won't be an issue for me!
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] msgranger12:
All day battery is more than enough!
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Beefheart:
Don't really understand the fascination with ludicrous speed charging. For me there is a happy medium between battery preservation and a charge speed fast enough to avoid being inconvenient. I'd say the 7 and 7 Pro hit that medium.

Also, 95% of the time I charge overnight whilst I sleep so do this using an old Acer USB charger which takes 3-4 hours to go from 20% to 100%. This is far better for the battery than pumping it with 65w and hitting 100% in 30 minutes.

But to each their own as they say.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] EtherealRemnant:
OnePlus' charging tech uses dual batteries and dumps the heat into the charging brick so the batteries don't really get damaged any quicker. It's quite amazing that they can charge the phone to 100% in 29 minutes and the phone is cooler to the touch than my 7 Pro is at 30 minutes when the phone is about 50% charged.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] danw_oz:
I wasn't planning on it as there was very little changes to the Pixel 6 Pro, what tipped me over was being so frustrated with even my newly replaced 6 Pro still dropping cell signals to the point it was dropping my audio application, setting my home media offline.

So glad I have now switched. commute to work has not dropped once with two days, both completely different weather.

Bluetooth reconnects and connects to devices far faster than the 6 Pro ever did, and is stable and reliable, where the 6 pro would just drop bluetooth mid music, then have to press play to resume it, or the music would show the previous meta data on the car display from the previous music, and be playing completely different album. Have not seen this behaviour at all with the 7 Pro. Don't know if it is valid or not but it feels like the music is clearer/crisper than the 6 Pro.

5G is about 3 times faster speed wise than the 6 Pro from the same locations, and much more stable and switches between towers properly.

Screen is quite a bit brighter (even without adaptive on), and has less yellow hue than the 6 Pro.

Battery life is much better than 6 Pro, although not as good as it should be.

Fingerprint sensor is more reliable and quicker, but not a huge amount. Still getting used to the face unlock again beating me to the unlock :) . Only issue I am facing is that many of my apps no longer seem to support the biometric unlock, although that is likely to be my settings or root.

Really looking forward to testing out this camera, weather so far has not been on my side.

UI seems to be more snappy for sure than 6 Pro

As little as it looked from specs as an upgrade, I feel it is a great upgrade.

All in all I think a reasonably smooth launch unlike 6 Pro, was one of my main other concerns with Tensor 2 being another Pixel 6 Pro all over again, hence my delay on purchasing one.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] blackspp:
I ordered and paid for a 256GB 7 pro last Friday, cold pick it up the next day. However, I've been receiving a few delay mails since and now it should be in November 12. If they keep on delaying until the s23 comes out, and if that turns out to a better phone, given the annoyances the 7 pro has, I might cancel the 7 pro and get my money back.

But I hope I can pick it up the 12th!

Still on a great Note 20 Ultra.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] mpwilms:
I had a V60 and I loved it! By far the best phone I've ever used. I have the P6P now, and I really miss the sound quality of the V60. The screen, however, is much better. I assume the P7P will be very similar.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] manners400:
I've had the P7 Pro for about three weeks now and definitely ain't looking back. Upgrading definitely ain't for everyone and finances can be a big factor..... I actually decided to upgrade from the pixel 6 pro which honestly was great on Beta 13.1 with all the bugs worked out but I wanted the face unlock, macro and slightly refined 7 pro. Out the box great phone and I actually feel like I got a good deal.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] rczrider:
I'm coming from a Pixel 3 and I generally agree with you. I was running Android 13 (PixelDust) and it was perfectly fine. It would bog down when I'd take half a dozen pictures in quick succession and the phone was processing, but that's it. For "regular", day-to-day use, the Pixel 3 was perfectly snappy.

As I'm sure you're aware, one person's use-case doesn't represent everyone else's. In my experience with the Pixel 3 (not XL, so maybe there's a difference), a third-party ROM (namely PixelDust) made my phone feel quite snappy. I can't even figure out what you're talking about regarding multitasking apps; I had exactly zero issues with that on my P3. It wasn't "dog slow" and the P7P for my particular use-case is not meaningfully faster (except in processing photos, as I noted above).

It sounds like you have high expectations for what your phone can do and so it's good that you're on the latest and greatest. I simply disagree that the average person is more like you than they are like me.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] xdrc45:
Just ordered a P7P. Coming from a Samsung S22 ultra. I've had an issue where the charging port quit working and had the same issue on the S21 ultra and that's why I upgraded to the S22 ultra. Anyone else ditch the S22 ultra for the P7P and are you happy with the switch? Been happy with the S22 ultra except not being able to root and do mods.

I flashed my Redmi 6 pro using my pc. I worked totally fine... after that I tried flashing Redmi note 9, Redmi note 6 Pro, Redmi 6A.... But my PC doesn't recognize any of them as android devices and I can't flash custom recovery... I tried flashing temporary recovery with "fastboot boot twrp.img" cmd but still custom recovery isn't flashing... what do I do? why does my pc only recognize Redmi 6 Pro as android device and lets it flash custom recovery? please help! Im on windows 10 and I installed 15 seconds ADB driver.....
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joke19:
What say the device manager, which driver is installed when the phone is connected? Other usb cable? You use a hub or usb 3 port? More ideas I don't have in the moment
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LoppyDuck:
I don't own a hub.... my PC has both USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 neither works... and the drivers just says winsys microsoft driver. but the device's name is showing the phone's name in device manager.. but it's not showing as an android device just a USB device
[Vivo X80] ahirameno:
I've been wanting to get this phone as my daily driver. I've been wanting something with stellar performance and a top notch camera.

If I do end up getting it, I want to use it for four years.

I'm coming from a oneplus 6, which has handled its fair share of hardcore usage. From heavy multi tasking, to having its hot-spot stay on for 12 hours a day, to heavy gaming, and a phone loaded with data, Its seen it all. https://omegle.onl/ vshare

I wanted to know whether the vivo users here think that the x80 pro will be able to take such hardcore usage day in and out for at least 4-5 years?

I am just a little worried before I spend all this money on a brand which I know very little about. Especially because most of the information online seems to be "sponsored" by vivo. I mean the phone does look really promising on paper. But would it be able to take this beating in real life?

I also heard that the vivo x80 pro heats up doing regular things such as watching YouTube videos etc. and that I'd be better off waiting for the vivo x80 pro plus. Would that be a good idea? I was really looking forward to the vivo. So any input would be appreciated.
[Vivo X80] Thanos88:
Hello, better you wait until next month as the vivo x80 Pro Plus will be released. Even if the Pro Plus version isn't for you, the Pro will drop in price, so you have nothing to lose. Regarding heating up, I've heard that from many users. Heating issue is mainly with the snapdragon version, the dimensity Version seems to have less heat & much better battery life. The pro plus version will use the 8+ Gen 1, so the heating issue may be significantly less. If I was you, just wait until next month for the release of the Pro Plus version & take things from there. Me personally, I'm going for the Huawei Mate 50 Pro, which will also be released within 10 days, as I'm still a firm believer that the Huawei Mate series are the camera kings.

Thought I would post to introduce myself. I signed on here (browsed & used this site in the past) since I just got a new phone (HTC Juno).

I go thru about 4 phones a year, I know thats nothing compared to some. I can stay content with the same phone for about 4 months before I get the itch to upgrade :)

Oh and if you wonder about the username, I love me some JDM cars :)

Hi new guy!

Why 4 months? The ideas we have here are meant to upgrade the same phone to make it even better than the one you really want, or the one that isn't fully released yet :D!

Great comment!!

Agree

And also welcome new guy! enjoy this great site

[Off-topic] JokeZony0u:
hey new guy!

I agree with what everyone's telling you, after you join this site, you probably won't be switching out as often..all this customization here would take you longer than 4 months a piece to try out haha

Welcome from another newbie!

:)Welcome to the forums! This is a really great place to learn everything about your phone. It takes ages to read through everything (I'm still not finished! LOL) but it is so worth it. Hope you'll be keeping your phone for more than four months. I just recently sold my Hermes and I felt a little sad but I had it for about a year and a half and was just dying for the Touch Diamond.:p

Enjoy it here!:)
[Redmi Note 10] hellfirehound:
Hi Folks,

I have a Xiomi Note 10 (camellian), unlocked and has USB Debugging switched on.

No matter what I do, I can't install TWRP or Orangefox because it fails with "FAILED: Too Many Links"

I've followed so many guides on how to fix this and they all fail. I tried to flash the stock rom with Mi Flash and that failed too (Constant "Unhandled exception" error as it doesnt seem to want to install drivers and wont continue without them). I've manually updated the ADB drivers for the Note and that worked fine. Mi Pc Suite doesnt recognise my phone unless i "Update your phone before you connect" (The phone is fully updated)

Please, for the love of the baby jesus and the little donkey, tell me what I can do to try and figure out what the smeg is going wrong

EDIT:

Ive changed ports/cables, tried compatibilty on programs, reinstalled ADB drivers

trying "fastboot flash boot recovery.img" (for orange fox) throws up "FAILED: remote: size too large"
[Redmi Note 10] NOSS8:
i see none TWRP and O.F for camellian, can you post the links +Miflash log?
[Redmi Note 10] hellfirehound:
The TWRP is unofficial https://xdaforums.com/t/unofficial-twrp-camellia-camellian.4304717/

There is no MiFlash log anywhere. Sorry im new to this
[Redmi Note 10] hellfirehound:
I think I need to flash the original rom before trying to install a recovery rom
[Redmi Note 10] NOSS8:
The Mi Flash logs are in the Miflash Log folder (post the last + or - 20/22ko

This twrp seems not to work (closed thread).

Try the command: fastboot boot twrp.img

The phone will reboot in TWRP after that go to Advanced > Flash Current TWRP

And what do you want to do with the TWRP, your device has a Mediatek soc and there is little or no development for Xiaomi with a Mediatek soc.

Never Mind, ill keep the phone as is. Thanks for trying to help
[Redmi Note 10] NOSS8:
Download and extract to the root of the disk.C:/platform....

https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools

rename the Twrp to twrp.img

Put it in the Platform tools folder

Execute the command from this folder

Since no custom is available for your phone I guess you want to update or downgrade for these 2 cases use Miflash not TWRP.

[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Gleniu:
Hello guys, I need someone, who can check something for me.

I'm using Redmi Note 10 Pro with MIUI 13.0.10, Android 12, EEA region (with Google Dialer). I'm bothered, because every time I answer incoming call, there is a "call forwarded" arrow before phone number on a call screen. Basically, earlier I saw it only, when I was calling someone and I was redirected to his voicemail. I'm attaching two screenshots - one is incoming call (with arrow), and the second is outgoing call (without arrow). Maybe I'm getting a little bit paranoid, but I would love to know that it is something new in Google Dialer and everyone now sees this arrow and I'm not being wiretapped by someone. My Google Dialer version is the latest version from Google Play - 87.0.468061598.

I would really appreciate if anyone can check it for me.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] meilann:
Hi! I've notice the same issue today, only during incomings answer. Have you found any info about It?

In my case is a Mi 11 Lite 5G, MIUI 13.0.9, Android 12
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Gleniu:
Thank you very much for your response, I'm glad I'm not the only one :D Well, since there are two of us, we can assume that it is either a feature or a bug of a new version of Google dialer or MIUI 13. Or we both are being wiretapped :D BTW, what is your country and your service provider? Poland/PLAY here.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] meilann:
Spain/DIGI here.

I hope is a MIUI 13 bug. On my husband's phone, with same mobile and provider doesn't appear but it is still in MIUI 12.

Maybe we both are person of interest😂
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Gleniu:
Maybe, who knows... :D One more thing - is your phone rooted? Do you use any call recording software by any chance? Because I'm using Call Recorder by SKVALEX, maybe it is related. Oh, and one more thing - I started to notice it just after updating to MIUI 13 / A12. In MIUI 12.5 / A11 it wasn't present.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] meilann:
Nope, I haven't rooted phone. I use the Google Dialer from factory and haven't installed any Call Recorded. I would swear It happens since yesterday or maybe three days ago, al least I haven't notice before. But I update to MIUI 13 a few weeks (or maybe a month) ago. As I said, on another phone with MIUI 12 doesn't appeared. Idk if there has been a second upgrade in MIUI 13 this week or something.

I was worried about charges on the bill but apparently the forwarding call is inactive.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Gleniu:
Yup, my billing looks OK as well. There was an update to a new main version of Google Phone (v86 -> v87) recently. I don't know the exact date, but it was about 20th August. New features like this are mostly released with the main version update, so maybe that's the case. Maybe update on your phone didn't installed instantly, but after some days? And the second question is - why does the same Google Phone version look different on exactly the same version of app, but on different phone? Maybe it's also Android 12 related.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] meilann:
I think I fixed it but no idea why it was happening xD I downgraded the Google Dialer version (actually wanted to uninstall it but only got the old version from the Play Store) and now the arrow is gone.

Maybe it's just a bug after all.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Gleniu:
I was going to try the Google Dialer downgrade as well when I have some time, so thank you very much for reporting back, now I don't have to do it myself :) Well, then we can assume that it is not a bug, but a new feature - pretty cool if you ask me - but now they have to change "call forwarded" icon to something else, so people don't get confused. Have a nice evening!
[OnePlus 9 Pro] enoironline:
Hi all, after have lost hours and hours traying to install the latest LineageOS for MicroG, I made a facotry reset of the Oneplus 9 Pro (to Android 11), than updated de devices to the latest update (incl. Android 12 and all avaiable updates) and THAN trayed to install LineageOS for MicroG following strictly the Manual of LineageOS (link). It seams to be perfect, until the first start of LIneageOS. I see the first setup screen (Welcome to LineageOS), on the left corner "Emergency call) and on the right the START button, but the screen doesent react andt on the upper right corner I see an empty battery icon. What can I do?? I'm at the end of my knowledge.

In a step of Installing LineageOS (without MicroG) it is necessary to install the dtbo and vendor boot partitions. Maybe the problem is here?

What I have installed:

- dtbo.img (20220823)

- vendor_boot.img (20220823)

- lineage-19.1-20220820-microG-lemonadep-recovery.img

- lineage-19.1-20220824-microG-lemonadep.zip

In Recovery I see "Version 19.1 (20220824)" is installed.
