the phone seems to go into a deep sleep if it's been locked for a while, I guess this is why the battery life is good - I found when this happens double tap doesn't work and certain apps effectively close themselves if they're not actively doing anything.

I bought my 6.1 from eGlobal having also bought my previous phone from them. Both phones arrived in about a week (I'm in Ireland) and I didn't have to pay any customs charges so no complaints. Really happy with the 6.1 and it was the best price I saw anywhere (though the following week they had...

64/4 version and it's very responsive. Best phone I've had for years. Had it for 3 weeks now, haven't had a single hang, or crashed app, I think I've only rebooted once. Battery life is great too.

yeah this messes up the storage settings. It's also not a perfect solution - some apps will install to the "adopted" SD card, but many still insist on installing on the internal memory, so it doesn't buy you a lot of extra space. Fundamentally 16GB is not enough for a modern Android phone - I...

I think odd numbered builds are single-SIM and even numbered are dual-SIM. So I have B181 on my single-SIM phone, others are using B182 which is the same build but for dual-SIM.

Not happy with the performance of the P8Lite - scrolling is jumpy and often freezes for a few seconds. Facebook app definitely makes it worse, but even after removing that, the phone is still really slow. Has anyone else noticed this, and is there a solution? I expected better performance with...

had to redo this after receiving an OTA update. After the update it appeared that the adoptable storage was still there, but apps were writing to the internal storage only and the phone quickly ran out of space. Even after redoing the ADB changes I had some trouble with Spotify which claimed...

still no MM for the European version - I'm beginning to suspect we're not going to get it...

I haven't tried the Huawei 6.0 - Lollipop is the latest available in Europe. RR's probably about as fast as EMUI and has been completely stable for the week or so I've had it installed (no reboots or anything else weird); Battery life is not as good as EMUI (which has fancy app-management...

took me a few tries to get RR installed - in the end had to wipe internal storage as without doing so the google setup process wouldn't complete. Full wipe (including internal); flash RR, flash mini GApps (Mini_Dynamic_GApps-7.1.x-20170121.zip); Titanium restore this is using mparus's TWRP...

what GApps are people using with this?

Stupid question but what is substratum and how do I not install it ☺️ Sent from my G760-L01 using Tapatalk

IME it's not quick, and internet access lags both on WiFi and 4G. Sent from my G760-L01 using Tapatalk

same here, for several versions now. Here's a screenshot of overnight battery usage - phone was charged to 100% before I went to bed, in the morning it was 56%...
