Front camera is not bad, it's horrible. even compared to galaxy A series. but since I barely use it, this is not a big deal for me. having a non-curved amoled screen with headphone jack and s-pen is something that I've been waiting for since note 5. So I accept the shortcomings of this phone...

I managed to downgrade from 9 to 8 using T825XXU3BSD1 UK rom. It had right bootloader version that made the process possible. give it a try

thanks for the answers. Edit: that's the proximity sensor as you said which lights up during calls, but I don't know why it was lighting up when there was no app running and the screen was off. odd behavior! perhaps accidental touch detection was acting incorrectly.

So I bought this phone yesterday, stock and no third party app. did a factory reset inserted the simcard and recieved a sms. when screen was off, a green small notification was blinking on left upper part of screen (something like what third party apps like aodnotify do but it was better). I was...

Ok to make it short and clear, after reading other posts I realize that most tab s3 users are not familiar with "samsung good lock". Good lock is a bunch of modules to add useful options to samsung devices but unfortunately they're only available in some regions you can use a free app called...

Dex is a selling point for Tab s4 and tab s6 and has nothing to do with android version. It's highly unlikely Samsung brings it to a previous version. I'm just hoping for a better performance and updated openGL and vulkan drivers. Not to mention many regions didn't get any security update since...

unlocked for fastboot flashing.

I flashed RETIN on RETEU and lost wifi. tried downgrade but on Oreo even sim cards and IMEI doesn't work finally after reflashing RETIN pie (about 3 times in a row) and doing a factory reset each time, everything is fine.

this is a well known issue of oneplus and when you report it, you either get ignored, or get a response like this: "oh my god, I can't believe you are having a problem. please send us a log and we will fix it in 2 hours. meanwhile, are you sure you are using a phone and not a sandwich maker?"...

Thanks for keeping it updated Could you please provide changelog for recent updates?

by "native dark mode in some parts" I mean dark quick settings, pop ups... and it's available on Pie. not systemwide dark mode of course :) about the LOS16 I tried that and as expected, mods had many issues. so waiting for official pie seems the better choice to me... btw the leaks about Z4...

I really hope that's the case, but based on my personal experience, I doubt it... That's a good point, "updates are not usually critical". But let's not forget they are one of the criteria showing a company's customer support. Pie brings features like native dark mode in some part, better...

First of all we should all be honest with ourselves that Motorola is over. This is Lenovo! Secondly, I'm pretty sure the main reason for update delay is Mods compatibility. Probably even when it come, pie update would not be bug free at all. I only bought this phone for gamepad mod and games...

usually in this situation bluetooth is still available so you can use bluetooth tethering to connect to other phones network, login to your google account and enable oem unlocking. are you sure your blutooth is disabled too? If that's the case, I'm not sure how to work around. maybe "usb reverse...

It's interesting. I had usually around 7 hours of SOT on Oreo. After pie and factory reset, it dropped to around 6 hours. Same apps, network settings, brightness... I downgraded (for various reasons) and better battery again My experience is in opposite of most reports with pie. But overall...

Well I'm not sure about taking samsung to court based on your case because: 1) samsung doesn't have a formal agreement with users about a specific update in a specific time and 2)the current state of phones are working properly and don't effect users experience. Of course If you are pumped...

thank you for your great work. I hope you manage to fix OTG

Wow A person asks about a custom vanilla rom, and look at some of the answers. So glad to live in 2019 when XDA posts are turned into youtube comments on taylor swift videos. People are not "dumb or stupid" if they're looking for customization options on XDA. They're maybe "wrong" in some cases...

Guys please read the op first I flashed the Bulgaria rom over Last THR rom using Homecsc and did a cache clean. everything is good so far all languages are included no LTE band issues after one day, battery life is good and to me it is similar to oreo. of course pie has an "adaptive battery"...

what were you doing prior to this issue

So here is the deal: whenever I open a browser app like Chrome, screen starts turning pink! Factory reset didn't help. the only whay to avoid this is change the screen mode to basic mode and avoid other amoled-adaptive modes. since it only happens in browser apps, I think it's probably a...

This are the facts and I don't see any reason for argument: 1. Most phone companies have poor update policies and costumer support. including xiaomi 2. Beta release of Pie for MiA1 has some bugs. but It's a beta release and expected to have bugs 3. Xiaomi released the EXACT beta build as an...

The setting option page is not there. if you search "swipe" in settings, you,ll find the link to setting page, but the page is empty. so if you have done a dirty flash or OTA, and the swipe was enabled already, it will keep working. if you clean install, it would be disabled. they will bring it...

yes disables them, but they still light up!

you can always avoid wiping data either by doing a dirty flash, or holding down volume while boot lock/unlock command or... but generally I don't recommend it I did a dirty flash coming from stock oreo (unrooted and without TWRP) and everything is fine. but I'm not sure about other scenarios...

I don't see any differences. but i barely used stock camera so maybe there are subtle changes that I'm not aware of. for people asking: Flash stock oreo using MiFlash tool fastboot oem unlock (Can hold volume down to avoid factory reset) download beta image here unzip copy files to adb fastboot...

ok here is my first impression: Rom is pretty smooth and stable pie onscreen navigation is available (optional) battery life seems like oreo. but more usage is necessary for better evaluation ( considering adaptive battery!) Rapid charging is there! Adreno drivers are updated (finally) Dark mode...

It's essentially an aosp rom with an iphone-like launcher and a few nice teaks and apps. no Google services or google apps. the goal is to avoid google services (and similar information gathering services) to increase security and privacy. a nice intention. but to be honest I don't think...

thanx. went back to stock and started all over again. now its fine :)

yes. It's so weird!

the last version keeps asking me for password after boot. factory resets, clean install... nothing helped.

This could be a good news for us too. Probably!

none yet

I've noticed that too. Fingerprint unlock is almost instant. Way faster than every other rom (7.1 - 9.0). That's interesting.

Yes. Just wipe everything and do a clean install. Rom is totally good for daily drive. Bugs I've found till now: 1. Wifi issues with 5ghz bands (based on country). This is a generic miui issue for enforcing an outdated regional list and is completely fixable with a xpoded module called wifi...

Yup. Started from stock 7.1 and redownloaded the rom from sourceforge, everything is great.

Thanks to the dev for great port So this is what happened to me!: I was on Liquid remix I flashed userdata successfully Then I noticed that I only have 8980 MB of internal storage, and cannot copy files there using MTP! So I used otg to copy and flash the rom, that went 100 percent without any...

it was disabled by default. So I enabled and disabled it again. Problem solved! Thank you so much ?

Just flashed the new (11.8.2018) update. Everything seems great. Phone app obeys the overall theme now. I have one question from everyone! One difference in this rom (from other custom 8.1 roms) that I don't like that much, is showing complete text of different notifications (including play...

There is never a real answer to this question. every rom has its own pros and cons. best way is to flash and try different roms to find out which one fits best for your needs. to me (at least for now) Resurrection remix + Francokernel is doing the best.

I'm on 07-05 Fingerprint authentication in magisk doesn't work too

So far the best Rom for mi A1 that I tried. Stable, clean and feature rich The only absent thing is "swipe down on fingerprint ro open quick settings" Is it somewhere that I can't find? Or is missing That's a quite handy feature on this phone! Thanks OP Edit: It's already a reported bug at...

Well this is my experience: -Changes mentioned by kmdshoyaib in op -No themes of course (and i wasn't expecting that) -The overall experience is smoother than nougat but I have to say many lags and delays specially in samsumg keyboard, and third party apps menus are still there (I did a clean...

perfect rom! the only bug I found so far: stock signal bar icons for dual simcard, are in different sizes! (on last Nougat version) thanks

I have G6 and S8 both (at the moment) G6: More realistic colors on an IPS panel Knock on Better place for FP sensor Flat screen and more classic body design S8: Notification LED Better camera (yes G6 has a good one too. But you get less processing specially on the edge of contrasting colors on...

It's more of a personal choice. I find benefits in both superAmoled, and IPS panels. For me, Amoled is better for long time reading, mostly because of true blacks and less backlight emitition (as I use with my tab s3) while for more realistic colors and specially true white, I prefer my G6. It...

Yes. Front facing camera is not as good as it should be. Specially in low light situation... This, and lack of LED notification light are the biggest flaw to me Back cameras takes good selfies though. I don't have any problem with framing or autofocus. Does a good job with defocusing background...
