Google Services is preventing my phone from going to sleep and killing my battery life. I've gone from 6-8h SoT to 3-4h SoT. How do I find out what exactly is keeping my phone awake?

Sebastian Thomas
Should I get a U11 now or wait till the essential comes out to make a final decision?
Noah Thomas
If they can add EIS for 4K then maybe it's possible to add it for the telephoto lens too
Zachary Garcia
Fucking chinks all I want is redmeme note 4 64gb/4gb model but they don't want my money and doesn't sell it now.
Geekbuying are saying they'll start shipping the 4/64 version again on 4.7, Honorbuy will start shipping it on 6.7.

US, unlocked (no carrier atm). Need a flagship breaker which goes insanely low (about less than $200 would be nice) compared to its features, also a phablet-size would be liked. I was considering purchasing a Moto G5+ (@$230), but is there anything else that could get my attention for less?

why did they have to make this so tiny? it would be perfect if they added a bit more screen

wouldnt it be too tall?

Have a OP3T, and want to upgrade to the 5. Should I just wait for the 5T?

yeah that's true. i guess it's the best size when i think about it compared to the on-screen keyboards of other phones

I asked this in the last thread but nobody answered, so I'm asking again in this one. Since the Moto x4 announcement was delayed can we expect a announcement in mid to late July and a release date in mid to late August? I really wanted the x4 but if it's not out by the end of August I'm going to get the z2 play
Angel Gutierrez
XZ compact when?
Carter Kelly
What is the linux of mobile os? Ubuntu Touch or should i get a android and root linux kali on it?
Ethan Diaz
Yes, perfectly fine for most stuff phone stuff. Maybe some heavier games won't run at full fps.

Unless you have some very specific needs, it will be more than enough, also because according to Nokia their products will focus on being as fluid as possible through a clean Android, and will see extensive support with fast and frequent updates.
Also, Nokia 6 is built like a tank, comes with QuickCharge 3.0, and has a fuckhuge battery. The screen is 1080p LCD. Honestly it seems built to last. For the price it's really a decent phone.
I wonder what can compete with it.
Jackson Russell
Is the G4 Play any different?
Nolan Moore
No one knows for sure, but I'd be surprised if they don't release Moto X4 by the end of August.
Why the Z2 Play over the regular Z Play though? It doesn't improve much and the battery is smaller, and it's also way more expensive.
Elijah Martinez
Is the Snapdragon 410 different? I'd assume It'd be the same since they're both 4XX
Matthew Sanchez
Well it's only 5.0" and it's got the weaker SD410. For the same price you might as well get the Moto E4.
It's quite a bit weaker but fine if you don't plan on gaming much.
Leo Gonzalez
lmao OP5 displays confirmed to be assembled in the phone upside down
Chances of OP actually fixing this are about zero.
William Cruz
Why can't google just make the nexus 5 with updated components? I need to upgrade this year but everything seems so shitty in comparison. >optimal size for my little hands, doesn't feel like I'm trying to hold a weirdly thin, yet too wide tile in my hand like 5.5" phones and up feel like >great rubbery grippy back.. seriously 10/10, keeps it from sliding off surfaces >decent camera, decent photos with HDR+ >solid as a rock, withstands 4 years without a case or screen protector, hundreds of drops (I'm just realy clumsy), and quite a few times getting wet >smaller top and bottom bezels than some new phones >stock android >$350
only complaints from fellow handlets I've seen are >muh front facing speakers because I'm a nigger and can't use headphones >muh bootloops because it was an LG
Instead I'll end up paying 700-800 dollars for the pixel 2 because it is small, with probably worse specs than the XL2 (dumb) and it will be an ugly dual-toned, fragile, overpriced mess with big bezels, and no 3.5mm jack.
The earlier Google Nexus devices were subsidized by Google and sold at a loss / no profit to increase android market share and app store usage, no need for that now that android is nearing 90% global smartphone market share.
Xavier Allen
Sorry if stupid, but are there any apps that actually do much w/r/t lowering the temperature of a phone or are they just glorified app managers?
John Price
redmi 4x bruh.
anyone here feel into snapdragon meme for getting an update and support ? why mediatek shitter on nokia 3 got nougat ?
Julian Johnson
it's on battery setting stock os since 5.0, settings - battery - battery mode switch to power save. Power save downclock the cpu and turning off cpu cores.
Logan Campbell
How long do you guys use your phones before buying a new one?
Oliver Wilson
I think I bricked my phone, I've got a Xiaomi Note 3 Pro, I flashed this firmware so I could install android 7.1:
(won't let me post a link, but it's the kenzo miui firmware: miuifirmware_kenzo_7.5.4.zip)
But now I can't even access fastboot/twrp, the "mi" logo appears very shortly (like 1/5th of a second) when I power up the phone, and then the screen goes black
Do I need android 7.0 if I want to flash a nougat rom? I'm on lollipop atm, looking to make my phone last a little bit longer
Charles Gray
Hello
Carter Williams
Thank you /spg/, the redmi note 4x is pretty decent
Luke Price
Enjoy your broken screen
Joshua Young
My S4 is four years old. I'd still use it if it wasn't so painful to use.
Logan James
I've been running a custom ROM on my OPO for almost two years and I haven't run into a single major bug. If you owned an OPO you'd know the stock ROM is a POS, any custom ROM would be an upgrade to it
>be prepared for lots of lag >Can't be worse than my cyanogen rn haha
Anthony Carter
no, you don't need it. Depends on the phone if there's Nougat available or not.
David Powell
Any tablet recommendations? No games...
Alexander Brown
usage? budget?
Bentley Stewart
videos, email, voip, gps nav'ing etc, preferably around $100...
Gabriel Campbell
Should I wait until the 4th of July sales start kicking in to buy a new phone?
Leo Walker
Since I'm on a budget, would it be better to go with a Samsung S5 or a J7 2016? Or would someone recommend something else that has a similar price and specs that won't break easily
Robert Hernandez
>similar price budget? country?
Jaxson Jenkins
Out of the two, the S5 is far better for a little more money. Wasn't it once a flagship?
Jayden Thompson
I'm in the US and I'm looking for ~$200 but cheaper would be nice. Max is $240.
Zachary Bell
Anyone?
Henry Nguyen
Nokia 6 Moto G5 Plus
Thomas Torres
decent phone with garbage battery
Kevin Walker
Would the S5 be a steal for ~$160? It has a Snapdragon 801, 2160p/16 mp camera, and alot of other features
Joseph Kelly
New or used? If used then $160 is a bit overpriced unless it's really immaculate
Also it'll probably be slow on the stock touchwiz ROM so be prepared to install a custom ROM to make it usable
Charles Reyes
Is there anything else at a similar price which would be better?
Elijah Long
new or used? What country/carrier? Wanted features?
Chase Powell
Could probably get newer LG models for that price
Jason Turner
Yes but even then I would suggest waiting for the OP6 or something else.
Nolan Sanders
Either is fine for me, needs to be in a usable condition though
I want it unlocked and am the same person from
Parker Sullivan
Just stick with what you already have
Camden Scott
is xiaomi mi 6 good? thinking about to get it :s
Zachary King
2 years because I'm a normie
Nathan Taylor
My phone was 5 years old. R.I.P Galaxy Note 2 2012-2017 Died to falling for the 80th time
Blake King
Android? Like 6 months. Longest ownership was iPhone 4s before left in a cab and 6s which I've had since release
Christopher Gutierrez
That phone is less than a year old, why would you need to upgrade already?
Jaxson Diaz
2 years usually
>tfw wanting to change this so was planning on getting a Pixel, assuming that Google would keep their devices up to date with Android for a while >tfw they're only going to get updates until next October
Charles Carter
>next October The pixel is guaranteed software updates until October 2018 and security updates until 2019
Christian Sanders
Next October as in next year October tho
Logan Morgan
This. Get a pixel
Christian Foster
Does Snapdragon really have an advantage over Mediatek in terms of software support (custom roms, recoveries, shit like that) or is Snapdragon just a meme?
Nolan Perry
Year to a year and a half. Sometimes I buy fall flagships, sometimes spring flagships.
Got a Pixel last year, waiting for Pixel 2 this time.
Carter Williams
If you upgrade every 2 years that's fine I guess, but compared to how long Apple updates their iPhones, Google went full jew
Zachary Clark
Anyone else had a Nexus 6p just suddenly die? Like no drops and never got wet.
Phone is not an investment. It's a tool. And no, phones are evolving too fast for futureproofing.
Justin Gutierrez
Well, my 6p doesn't have either of those problems. It just died and doesn't turn on.
Ayden Rodriguez
Looking for advice. Looking to upgrade. I'm on Verizon. I just want the best phone I can get. I was thinking the Galaxy s8 but i don't know if it's just a meme and I also work on a construction site so the durability has me a little worried.
Any advice on what I should go with?
Jack Garcia
My Nexus 5 is still running and is still totally viable current day; I know the feeling, and always wanted a real successor to it myself.
Ultimately, I bought a Sprint HTC 10 for around 220 dollars used in very good condition. Very solid build, high end hardware, great camera, chamfered back gives an oddly good grip, unlockable bootloader that keeps warranty (and S-OFF sadly for a fee) with good ROM support, Sprint variant can easily be GSM unlocked via software, and size is much more manageable than many other new phones and isn't too much bigger than the Nexus 5. Bonus points for SD card slot and top notch headphone output.
I don't regret getting it instead of the Pixel at all, especially for the price I got it used; It's the closest thing to a Nexus in my mind besides the uninspiring Pixel, honestly.
Jayden Robinson
What's wrong with the phones already suggested?
For ~$200 used I'd look for LG G5 HTC One M9 Nexus 6 Galaxy S6
