Good for you user, enjoy what you enjoy.
Here's the unfortunate truth. Never ever buy a phone with a processor that isn't produced by Apple (Ax), Huawei (Kirin), Qualcomm (Snapdragon), or Samsung (Exynos). They're the only reputable process manufacturers. Qualcomm is generally speaking a shitty company but unfortunately they're the dominant ones in the android market.
As for your question specifically, Snap652.
Isaac Torres
>I'm not a Google hobbyist phone shill so I'm a faggot
nice argument, linuxtard
John Bailey
Glad you like it. I still can't believe they don't have quick charge yet.
Carson Davis
Theme engine on LineageOS 14.1 when ?!
Jaxon Richardson
When CMTE happens because no one is jumping on Sub.
Gavin Nelson
But LineageOS 14.1 is useless without it. I install it on HTC M8, smooth and stable and all, but at least the stock SenseUI gave me a great customization.
Nolan Turner
Then just use a launcher for the time being like damn gurl
Ryan Perez
Yeah, it'll allow me to change basic things, like icons and such. I want to change the battery/network indicators, it is soo ugly on LineageOS, it reminds me with android kitkat on Note2 !
Eli Sullivan
Does anyone here have the Zenfone 3 ZE552KL?
Brody Wilson
sup /spg/, my G4 got bootlooped so I got stuck with an old, trade-in Galaxy S5 until May this year. This would be fine if it weren't for the insufferable battery life. What can I do to remedy this, besides buying a new battery for it (which I already did)?
Lucas Nguyen
You sure you got a genuine battery?
Adam Cook
Bought a Samsung genuine battery, but it hasn't arrived yet. The battery that came with it was genuine as well, but obviously has been charged a couple hundred cycles, and was on its last legs.
Jackson Russell
I have a Jiayu S3 and I'm thinking of retiring it. I'm thinking of the LeEco Le 2 X520 with an SD652 SoC but I'm thinking that maybe my Jiayu S3 with MT6752 has a better battery performance compared to the SD652.
Robert Walker
Who else still rocking the v10
Christopher Price
Just bootloop my shift up senpai
Josiah White
I have a s4 phone. How do I debloat it fully? It is rooted but I never did anything else besides that.
Adrian Miller
Install system app remover and delete all the apps you dont need
Brandon Lewis
If you want battery life then get one of the Xiaomi Redmi phones
Isaac Flores
So I've had a HTC One M7 since launch, and it's finally just got to the point where I can't deal with it anymore, battery's too unstable, purple tinge camera, etc.
Thing is, I'm perfectly happy with the performance of the M7 which is like, 4 years old now. Are chinkphones a good replacement for this? Will they be as reliable and long-lasting?
Connor Davis
OP3T
Wyatt Watson
The HTC is a chinkphone desu neko chan.
If you don't care for price then just wait for the actual HTC 11.
Jace Myers
just get a xiaomi mi4 for $90 and install lineage os. snapdildo 800, 1/3" sensor with f1.8 lens. make sure to get the 32GB lte version.
Adrian Flores
If I were to put a port of the Note 7 ROM on my Note 4, would I have to worry about it trying to download the phone-killing update at this point?
Having it rooted would stop it either way, wouldn't it? Since Samsung and other manufacturers don't like pushing their updates to rooted phones.
Charles Ross
Don't put the note 7 rom on your device. It will download the phone-killing update at some point.
Andrew Phillips
>Note 7 ROM on my Note 4 i swear i see this in every single spg thread literally what the fuck is up
Samsung S8 Plus. At least until I can trade it in for a note 8.
Camden Roberts
cheapest i can get the redmi note 3 pro 3gb? its $137 for the 2gb but $157 for 1 gb more?
Ryan Campbell
And it'll push it through even if it's rooted?
I suppose I could understand Samsung doing that, considering why it needs to be installed in the first place but, still. That sucks.
Hunter Johnson
>tfw my v10 was going nice until last week when it suddenly bootlooped >sent a repair request but remember I changed the screen hardware due to damage >don't want to ship it because i'm sure they'll deny it Maybe one day someone will make a way for me to be able to flash stock firmware onto it and make it all new again.
Camden Kelly
Yes $157 is the cheapest price at the moment ($158 for the special edition), it's worth it paying more for the extra ram
Joshua Wood
Will there be a iPhone SE 2nd edition this year? Or should I buy one now?
Aaron Brown
Zuk Z2 or Xiaomi Mi5? Is the Mi5 worth the extra? People keep saying how the z2's screen is oh so terrible and stuff but at least through videos I don't see anything wrong with it.
Austin Davis
My brother told me that if you leave it for some days, for some reason it will boot and allow a few minutes of access. I don't know how reliable it would be to flash a stock image but you should be able to extract data you need in that time no?
Also anecdotal so I dont know if it will work for you.
Angel Rogers
ZUK Z2 >cheaper >1gb more ram, double the storage >higher clocked CPU >more LTE bands
Mi5 >better camera >better display >better audio >better build quality >more custom roms (inc. official LineageOS build)
Camden Powell
Nobody knows yet so just get the SE
Josiah Hall
Oh it would do that for me actually. It would turn on for just a moment. Was able to get pictures and downloads off at least. After that I did try to flash what I believe was stalk, but I guess it didn't work because AT&T are fucking assholes. Any other carrier it seems you can flash fine or root, but not AT&T. Not gonna buy directly from them next time. Will just get an international unlocked model. Whatever I flash, I guess it wasn't stock and it probably didn't work right either. One reason I loved my G2. If I ever had a problem I could just flash it brand new. Maybe I should start using it again.
But yeah I think it's bricked for good now kek. I don't think LG really repairs it either. They just ship you a new or refurbished phone instead.
Colton Myers
Why in the name of god is my 5.1 Android not finding my home wifi? 6 finds it no probs. d wlan on 5GHz band.
Nicholas Gray
pot shot in the dark, check the encryption of the wifi. I know some have trouble with older android versions.
What the fuck is up these utter bullshit numbers? These phones don't come even CLOSE to performing like this.
Isaiah Robinson
Requirements >5" or slightly bigger (can go to 5.5") screen. >QC2.0 or better. >USB-C. >Support for Lineage OS or other rom that is close to (or is) AOSP. >A good battery, preferably 3500 mAh or better.
Ideally should be around 300 dollars, under 400 in any case. Would be nice to hear if anybody has any suggestions!
Charles Bailey
those numbers seem way to high
Nolan Reyes
Could we just rename this to /BotNetGeneral/ thread?
Thomas Sanchez
Do you just not have a smartphone at all then?
Jeremiah Fisher
>People keep saying how the z2's screen is oh so terrible and stuff but at least through videos I don't see anything wrong with it.
Autistic kids think HD to full HD on a 5 inch screen makes a difference
Evan Myers
I have a pager and that's it
David Allen
Hats off to you for being 40 years behind the world.
Austin Flores
What's a good ROM for the g1
Gavin Torres
It's not real life usage >The web browsing test is performed using an automated script which reloads a webpage every ten seconds. There are no flash elements on the web pages, so the playing field is even. The brightness of the phones' displays is set to 50% and we use a 802.11n access point placed a few meters away to get full connectivity bars.
>In our video playback test we measure how long it takes for a device to run its fully charged battery down to 10%, while looping a standard-definition video. We stop at 10% since most devices shut their video players at this point. The display is again set to 50%, and all radios on the device are switched off (Airplane mode).
I've gotten over 8.5h SoT on my Oneplus One but that's been with the screen on the whole time from 100% to 1%
Blake Bailey
give me three good reasons to upgrade my OPO
Alexander Brooks
The ZUK is full HD though. And when talking about the display quality it's not about the resolution anyway, but stuff like maximum brightness, contrast, black levels and colour accuracy.
Owen Flores
what advantages does Resurrection Remix have over Lineage?
Anthony Hill
Femanon here
Is the Zuk Z2 pro really worth the price difference with the plain Zuk Z2? It's almost double the price, yet the 821 processor isn't really that much faster than the 820, and an extra 0.2 inches doesn't do much for me. Does the pro have a better camera or build quality to justify the cost?
Owen Jones
Waiting to see how good the new phones are.
Kinda want a S7 to replace my 5x tho. Starting to hate this phone.
Samuel Hill
if you want an s7, best to wait for the s8, only a couple more months.
Aaron Allen
why did you have to mention that you're female?
Dylan Diaz
femanon here kys
Wyatt Bennett
tits or gtfo
Leo Hernandez
It's probably dude. Just wanted to grab attention so someone would answer his post.
Brandon Hughes
Just use the epic 4g rom. It's a bit older, but much more stable.
Adam Adams
Note 8. It's all about that spen life.
Still rocking a note 4 with a fresh battery. Probably not going to upgrade until this thing explodes.
Charles Sanders
So what does everyone think about the iPhone 7 plus killer?
Moto Z Play or ZTE Axon 7 come the closest to having all those features. Oneplus 3 or Xiaomi Mi5 if you can survive without a SD card slot.
Luke Johnson
pls respond
Jeremiah James
Are you on 10.2.1? My SE keeps getting this weird headphone responses since I updated
Carter Fisher
I was in the same situation as you mate. Used the M7 for 2 years before switching to the M9, and now the Huawei Mate 9 after the M9 died.
This chink phone in particular is outstanding and really impressive. Never regretted choosing this over the LG v20.
You could also wait for the next iteration when it comes out later this year.
Christopher Gray
Does anyone know a familar similar between the Zenfone 3, Axon 7, and Mate 8, but with a removeable battery? Been looking at all those but I'm trying to see if I can't find one with the battery. Still haven't seem to found one yet because I want good headphone sound quality. I think there was one or two I looked at that did have a removeable battery but the quality dropped. But been looking at so many phones it's all kind of blurred now.
For the record I don't want the v20 either. Seeing as my v10 got bootlooped, and seeing as this one is susceptible to the same problem, I don't want to try it.
William Morris
What is the cheapest phone that has a
>fingerprint scanner >good camera >at least 3gbs of ram >water resistance at least, waterproofness obviously prefered >preferably usb C >good display
The zuk z2's hardware is amazing and I love absolutely everything about its design, but the display is dim and the camera is garbage.
Wyatt Carter
What do you guys think of this Xperia X for $275? Is this the cheapest it's ever been? I'm tempted to pull the trigger on it.
so I know nothing about phones and I'm wondering what you do with one of those unremovable battery phones if the battery messes up. you got to send it in or something?
John Evans
I think they have a key combo to press to force it to shut off, vol down button and the power button IIRC.
Angel Foster
No just holding the power button for a substantial amount of time does so. As is standard in the industry.
Jace Long
Shh, bby, it's ok. Get an iPhone
Eli Taylor
Need a new phone now because my current one is broken. I don't know anything about phones, but I was looking for a high budget phone with a stylus. The note 5 looks really nice but still seems expensive for something more than a year and a half old. Is that still the best one out since the accidental hand grenade?
Jason Robinson
As in to replace the battery?
Justin Cook
For that price it's a very good deal. Great phone all around other than not being waterproof like most other Sony phones
Grayson Brown
Axon 8. The axon 7 was almost the perfect phone in my eyes. If the hardware buttons were backlit and the reception issue sorted, it would be flawless.
Blake Scott
The Note 5 id pretty much the only flagship phone on sale with a stylus (LG does some budget phones with styluses). I'd tell you to wait for the Note 8 but guess that's not an option if your current phone is broken.
Daniel Allen
Is it possible to replace the headphone jack on the LG2? The cable keeps popping out from the slightest nudge.
Levi Foster
How's the iphone's planned obsolescence? I'm fucking tired of android's bullshit nowadays. Every phone has an IF or BUT and I'm sick of it. Thinking about getting an iphone 6s due to the 7's courage meme but I wonder if Apple has already gimped it with ''''''''''''''''''''updates''''''''''''''''''''''' already?
I have an SE which has the same internals and it's smooth as fuck.
Much like "lagdroid", the planned obsolescence iPhone meme is old. The A9 is gonna be good for a while.
Gavin Bell
How do you deal with having no Sup Forums app and the hassle associated with webms though?
Jeremiah Cox
Been using KISS launcher but the green triggers the shit out of my autism. What launcher do you use?
Easton Evans
I have a shitty old $30 Amazon tablet with CM for bedtime Sup Forums browsing with Clover, but I was never much for mobile posting anyway.
There is also an app called Merlin, which was made for Sup Forums webm viewing. It's just a safari wrapper so you still have to use the shitty mobile site, but it lets you open and view webms inline and save them. I'm pretty sure it was made purely for /gif/ browsing purposes. It costs like 3 bucks though.
Jaxson Barnes
I just got a Note 5 (imported from the US, AT&T unlocked) and honestly haven't loved a phone this much before, thing is though it's stuck on Android 5.1.1 and I'm fucking dumb when it comes to tinkering with software and such so I was wondering what's the easiest way to update? Without you know, not much hassle or risk of bricking my phone. Help a brother out.
Levi Gomez
if you're still on the stock android it comes with you should be able to go into settings phone updates. My note 4 is on 6.0 not sure why the 5 wouldn't be.
