I have a theory...maybe it was a fluke or maybe its true. I have a 3 year old phone, which I owned from new and has had hundreds of charging cycles, but still has 99% battery capacity of a brand new phone according to both accubattery and measuring with plug in monitor. I've only ever charged it...

Has anybody who received this phone with vendor rom (9.7.6 beta) flashed back to chinese stable?

The past year or so worth of play store builds has had animation stuttering on all my phones. Just installed an older version and even though it does the same animations, it is completely smooth with no stutter, until it automatically updated at least... I wonder is google even aware of this...

Bought a phone with cracked screen, opened it up to replace and noticed the battery is badly pitted, assumably from dirt which got inside. There is 3 points where it seems some acid leaked out and damage the back cover. https://imgur.com/a/T9l34dU Is it safe to use? There is no swelling and...

When displaying a pure black image on the p2 the bottom left 1/3 of screen has a slight yellow glow to it when you look at it in a dark room. The same area looks more warmer than the rest when displaying grey. Anyone else noticed this? From searching around I've seen complaints about similar...

I have a phone which wont charge after being dropped in a toilet. I already tried replacing the whole bottom circuit board which includes the charging port however the issue remains. I'm going to try one more part change, would it be more likely to be the battery or mainboard? There is no...

Whenever I change the original battery of my Redmi 1s with a Nohon replacement one, with same settings the standby drain goes from 1% every 3hr to 1.5% every 1 hour, thats over 4 times worse standby performance. Looking at battery stats when the Nohon battery is in, the phone is kept awake alot...

With all power saving modes disabled brightness reduces when you open browser and several other apps. Unless brightness is very low or very high. Really annoying when you're outdoors and suddenly can't see anything If you use power saving mode, it reduces brightness all the time but when you...

Temple run 1 is unplayable on Honor 8 but it runs perfectly on Honor 7. Geometry Dash World stutters a bit, again runs perfect on Honor 7. Strange. I guess the load from these apps is not kicking the cpu/gpu up to required clock speeds or the chipset is not optimized properly.

After turning on power saving mode then turning it off, brightness is changing when opening some apps like dialer and google chrome. Similar to EMUI 4.1 when power mode was set to smart but it is happening even when off in EMUI 5. Before turning on power saving mode for the first time...

After replacing the battery in an Xiaomi Redmi 1s with a Nohon one, the phone is draining in standby around 1% per hour with airplane mode. With original battery its 1% every 2.5-3 hours on same settings. According to battery stats its caused by 'Android' keeping the phone awake. When I put...

Phone is Xiaomi Redmi 1s. The problem started happening after updating to MIUI 8. I have another Xiaomi phone on an older rom with the same Android version/ Google Services/Framework versions and no problem. Also tested various other phones without issue. The official MIUI forum is completely...

Zenfone was dropped earlier and the display cracked. Only it was in a flip cover case and the display is only cracked internally, the outside glass is perfect. I noticed upon taking it apart that 2 of the screws are shorter than the rest. I took it apart before and may have put the screws back...

If you have High accuracy location enabled and your current location is the same as a location you've added manually, the weather app deletes the one you added manually. Then if you turn off GPS the weather app fails to update, says you need to enable location services. The manual location...

I have a Chinese Honor 8 and have installed Google on it. Everything works fine but I cannot access the Google settings page. I know its there because I seen it pop up once asking if I want to enable Android Device manager. Any idea how I can access it? When I go to accounts -> google and click...

Can someone upload their stock themes from Honor 8? I have the Chinese version but all the stock themes put backgrounds on app icons whereas the EU/US version doesn't.

I noticed this at first, but with the new playstore update its very noticeable. The animations are glitchy. Maybe it affects other apps too. Left is Honor 7, right is Xiaomi Redmi 1s which shows the animation correctly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3TbBTlShGo

Here's a picture of the stuck green pixel on my Honor 7. It is very bright when the display is just turned on, and dims a bit when it heats up which I find kind of strange. Very distracting watching movies as its constantly visible.

EMUI in China includes both permission and startup controls in the phone manager app. But due to google policy, it is removed from the European version. However you can search playstore for an app called PM plus https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.huawei.pmplus&hl=en This will...

Even indoors, if the screen gets hit with direct light, there is a clearly visible crosshatch pattern across the whole display. Anyone else notice this? Got to say I'm not too impressed with the screen quality. Light bleed, dead pixels and now this. My much cheaper Redmi 1s has none of these...

Is anyone else noticing some stuttering simply scrolling through homscreen pages? Not all the time but frequent enough to notice. European version with b121.

There doesn't seem to be any bug report thread on English forum, only other languages so thought it would be a good idea to post this. Here is some bugs I've noticed, mainly related to performance. -When you open notifications and switch to toggles, the animation is not smooth first time...

I noticed in videos of EU Honor 7 (and my phone) that there is light leak along bottom half of left and right sides. Has anyone got a phone without this? Wondering now if they used the Eu introductory offer to get rid of these displays as videos I've seen of the Chinese version don't seem to...

If you have cracked your screen on any phone, please post here if the touchscreen was still fully functional or only partially/completely nonresponsive. There is different ways touchscreens are built, some will completely stop working with even the smallest crack, requiring a very expensive...

Why do some touch screens work with cracked glass whilst others don't? For example, recent Sony phones seem to be notorious for having screens that become completely non functional once the glass is cracked. I have a cracked HTC, IPhone and Samsung. The touch/screen on these all work perfectly...

I noticed this while browsing the play store.. on light backgrounds or where the background is a single colour there is vertical greyish lines on the screen. They are spaced evenly with each line about 1/3 of the width of the space between them. Someone posted a picture of it here which shows...

Hi I think I might have an issue with the battery on an xperia sp which I got a few days ago. When idle with stamina on it's loosing between 1-2% per hour. I've used Gsam and recorded some stats to show what's using up the battery when the phone is not in use. Hope it makes some sense :)...
