Thanks for your interest but I've made no progress and actually given up on it. I'm sure the issue could be resolved by buying a new, more compatible screen but I'm not going to put any more money into the phone. As far as the software solution goes, I've tried almost every combination of ROM +...

Me too, in fact my screen doesn't work at all with 4.9 kernel. It was a cheap replacement from aliexpress. I was hoping to find some updated ROMs with 3.18 but I will have to just stick to stock. It's a shame.

Hi Sooti, Thanks for the great work. Just wondering it's possible to use a 3.18 kernel with this ROM. I've recently replaced my screen and it seems the 4.9 kernel sources don't have drivers for the replacement screen. Only ROMs with 3.18 kernel work for me. Regards, Simon

Hi all, I'm new to the device so I'm maybe doing something wrong but I don't think so. I got the device with a terribly cracked, I flashed Pixel Experience (Android 10) as it's what I've had on my Nexus 5x, everything was working fine so I proceeded to replace the screen. I replaced it with...

Thanks Lakshay, you've done some good work here. Everything seems to be working perfectly so far except for the camera, more specifically the Google Camera. It FCs every time, I've tried clearing cache/storage, uninstalling/reinstalling, removing screen lock. I'm not sure what else to try...

Thanks for the heads up. If I get around to reinstalling the ROM I will do a logcat for posting.

Here too, though I also suffer from that a little on ABC rom on 8.1 with camera NX with hdr+. Overall the stock camera app is very sluggish on this beta, that's why I can't use it as my daily driver. We're really starting to notice the low RAM on the 5x. ---------- Post added at 06:13 PM...

Thanks for taking the time to verify that. No I definitely didn't cover the mic, I've even taken the covers off to make sure everything is clean and the mic isn't blocked by dust or anything. I'm not sure what the problem could be but I can now discard the mod being the culprit.

Hi all, I've been using this mod for some time now and just noticed this week that all my videos captured on the nexus 5x have stereo sound but the right channel is a lot louder than the left. I obviously didn't notice this when playing them on the phone's speakers but on an external device I...

Thanks for the suggestion, I've been trying to use AICP for a while now but it's just does not perform well at all and seems to have some serious RAM management issues. ABC on the other hand, works perfectly for me, it's not quite pureNexus but it'll certainly do the job. R.I.P. Pure Nexus

I've been experiencing this from the beginning with this ROM though I've not seen it mentioned in the thread. It's not that annoying but it'd be nice to have it fixed. I assume it has something to do with the modification on the framework. Everything else is good here, 5.0.1 + 5.0.2 OTA...

This is something I've noticed recently too though it's the upper edge that is brighter. I can't be sure as to when it started but it's been like that for a while now. I have opened up the phone quite a lot to fix a few problems I've had so I put it down to that, maybe I moved something I...

Don't worry, it can be fixed. I just fixed mine yesterday after spending 2 days contemplating buying a Nexus 5x due to this one being broken. For a few days my mic wasn't working then I realised that pressing hard just below the camera hump got it working again as you can see in the link below...

I'm not too sure but I see in the 'Kernels compatibility:' section on the OP you pasted he states: 'Working perfect on every custom kernels expect Franco because KCAL is missing on this' I think he meant to say 'Except Franco', not 'Expect Franco'. He seems to promise quite a lot, apparently...

Never tried them but I have been a long time user of the HA-FR201's with the inline mic and I'm very happy. You just cannot get that kind of sound with deep bass for less or even for double what they cost. I'm sure the FX3X are awesome.
