Please point me to a good ROM

Hey guys, I have a Huawei Ascend P7, but I never got an update since when I got it. It's on P7-L10V100R001C00B158 since like forever! Still on EMUI 2.3 and the system is starting to show age, I want to update to a newer/better ROM, but I don't know which one is the best out there, and I don't know how to install a ROM, I've never done it before. So if anyone would be kind enough to point me to the right direction?

Thanks

Any good replacement charger?

Hello,

I lost the charger that came with my LG G2, and the genuine one costs quite a lot in my country,
So I wonder if there is anything I can buy on eBay that is safe and charges just as quickly?
(I need EU plug btw)

Thanks

HELP! Looking for a cheap and good bluetooth controller!

hey guys,
as you can see in the title i am looking for a good bluetooth controller that works flawlessly with our tegra note 7. btw it has to be a 14 button controller like the xbox 360 controller.
the problem is i only found tons of expensive ones like the moga, steelseries or snakebyte idroid controllers and a bunch of chinese controllers which seem to be too cheap and too bad in terms of quality and compatibility.
i just want to play all kind of games (on emulators for most of the time) while i am still able to charge the tablet so i can play longer instead of playing for an hour before the battery goes low.
i found an interesting controller thats called "red samurai v2" that was sold by gamestop. but i can't find this one anymore since it is not available in the online store from gamestop itself. i also can't find it in other stores like amazon or ebay. i googled the **** out this in hope to find at least one that wasn't sold out. i heard the red samurai v2 was extremely good in terms of quality and compatibility for its price (was just about 10-20$)
since i gave up on finding this particular one, i am right at the beginning again.

now i am asking you if you have any good recommendations for some bluetooth controllers that are not too expensive (maximum 25$) but still work as good as any other normal gaming controller on our tablet (like the xbox 360 controller i used to play with via usb OTG).
pls remember: it has to be a 14 button controller just like the xbox 360 controller
very important to me: 4 shoulder buttons (L+R Bumpers and L+R Triggers). because many cheap ones only have 2 bumpers but no triggers.

Stable ROM with a good battery life

Guys, I'm looking for a stable ROM which once flashed doesn't require any fixes, kernel optimisations, doesn't contain bugs and stuff, you know the deal.
I would like it preferably to be a GPE ROM but that isn't necessary.
Also it should have a nice battery life.
I know that this question has probably been asked before, so if you point me to a nice thread about these conditions, I would like that too :D

Looking for a good daily driver ROM.

I'm rehabbing my old S3 for my wife to use and the first ROM I tried was OctoPop... which is great but has some stability issues (at least on my phone) and I'm really trying to find a trouble free daily driver for her to use. I'm open to suggestions and I'm not fixated on it being lollipop... just very stable.

Good bye to Mate 7

I did drop the phone on stone floor yesterday now the touch does not work on the majority of the screen.
In panic I have bought a used LG G3 as replacement I got it for a very good price.

yeah So I will probably not be checking this forum so much more... I hope the Mate 8 will be worth update for.
The Mate S despite beautiful design was not convincing when it did come to batter cpu and gpu and also no sd card slot.
What I liked about huawei is that they did copy the good things from apple, but now it seem they are ok with copying the bad sides also, which means
very small battery (for good profit margins) and slow and outdated cpu/gpu.

Apple use outdated and bad hardware and they manage to get the most out of it with very good software. Apple spend a lot of money on the software that is how they get away with such weak specs. Well I hope Mate 8 will be a good spec monster, the software is important but a 3rd party launcher usually does the trick. New Mate 8 will most likely have curved display and for me a very seductive screen to body ratio like no other manufacture.. the Kirrin 950 also seem to me very convincing as long as the GPU is not the bottleneck as it is on M7.

I still do not forget huawei for promising us Lollipop, yet we are still here 9 and half month into 2015 and still no real sign of official release.
I cannot understand what is taking such long time, my only conclusion is why it does take such a long time is because they are not working at it at all.
The status have been on hold for the bigger part of the year, maybe they did work on in it for 1 month, they did not meat the deadline so now the project is on hold that is what I think. Despite what is it worth waiting for lollipop ? if you ask me the answer is no.. Lollipop will satisfy no one now when 6.0 is out.
Also all new function and looks from Lollipop will not be present in the EMUI lollipop.. also same bad animations.. say what you want but animations are damn important...beautiful fast and fluid animations during multi tasking and switching between apps is very important, Apex Launcher did finally give me the smooth and fast animations i wanted from day one..

What Is a Good, Protective S6 External Battery Case?

Hey guys,

I was looking at the Mophie Juice Pack for Samsung Galaxy S6 but it retails for at least .99 plus shipping and handling on Amazon. I've seen other cases that claim to supply the same amount (or more) battery life than the Mophie one, but they're... suspiciously cheap, some are .99 and some are even .99. So there are two things that I'm looking for in my external battery case:

1. At least 3,000 mAh
2. Protection from dropping the phone and it landing screen-side. I don't case about how easy the case scratches or whatever.

I find the best way to figure these out are just to ask people which battery case they use or have seen used. So I'll do it, which battery cases have you guys used, and what was their quality like? Did they protect your phone?

Whats a good???

Whats a good app with out root to get a mobile hot spot right now im using easy tether pro with a usb connection but like to go wireless on my lg g4 attt? Any help is appreciated thank you

NFC Good for Anything?

So the fire phone supposedly has an NFC chip in there... is it good for anything? Does it work? With Amazon wallet gone, and no lollipop version... it seems we can't really use the NFC for anything?

Nexus 6 - Google worst phone is still a really good phone

I think we can all agree that with the build quality issues, backs bubbling, yellow/pink screens, this will probably go down as the worst phone that google has made. It also was not well received for its size.

Keeping all that in mind... the Nexus 6 (moto) is still a great phone. It's fast, good battery life, no heavy flaws other than those have as preferences in their devices (no stylus, ect). It's versatile, not hard to tear down and replace things in,, dual front speakers and with a few software tweaks battery life goes from good to great, screen colors get better and with a ROM all the features people want can be added. It was also cheaper than every other flagship except the G3 when it came out.

I know there are peopel out there have have reason that maybe teh device they got in hand had some issues. but I personally have gone though 5 Nexus 6 and i never regretted it, i just stupidly sold it to buy another phone I wanted but never found to be quite as good.

1. 32GB MB - Purchased through Moto, RMA'd for uneven screen color.
2. Sold to buy a 64GB CW
3. Sold to buy a Moto X 2014 and Nexus 7
4. 64GB CW - bought after selling Moto X and 7in tablet
Sold that X to get a Galaxy S6
5. Sold S6 to buy 32GB MB
6. 32GB CW, the 32GB MB now sits in my drawer.


Yes I have an addition.

After going though all these phones I have found only 2 things that I wish were different in the Nexus 6.

1. I wish it had a Moto Maker like system. Picking a different back color for it would have been really nice. Even if just limited to the 4 Nexus colors plus Black and White. I'd likely buy Red.
2. I wish the camera was better. If they released the EXACT same Nexus 6 next year, but with the camera abilities of the S6 I'd still buy a new one.

Light version Sony Apps - is it good or not?

Sony Mobile company just receive updates for three multimedia applications and all this apps are now available in light (white) version. I really like this change, i saw it first time on IFA with XPERIA Z5 and it looks good. But i think that not everybody will like this change and there is no possibility to switch back to black (dark) version. Is this good way for you? Do you like black or white version?

Good Alternative OPO ROMs?

Hey OnePlus users! I wish I could put this in the development category, but I can't yet. I just have one thing I want to have: all working alternative ROMs. I'm talking no Cm, Slim or AOSP based, things like MIUI, SailfishOS, FlymeOS, or even obscure things like Ubuntu-Touch. Thank you, I appreciate all your help!

Some good advice from a C5 Ultra User and a mini review....

Ok so i've had my C5 Ultra for a few days now here in the UK and have had a few ups and downs but i've solved the problems I had with the phone.

I'm coming from the Z3 which I had an original sandisk 128gb micro SD card in. (Bear in mind I have tried several different Micro SD cards and I always buy original good ones)

Problems I had:

1. With the Z3 taking pictures was very quick whilst having the default storage to Micro SD card, DO NOT set the camera storage to micro SD on the C5 Ultra it takes 5 times longer to write to the micro SD card than the internal memory, so if you want to take photos in quick succession then don't save to the external memory.

2. Again an external micro SD card problem.....I have lots of apps and games, games especially taking up loads of space. I thought id be clever and install some big games and use lollipops feature of transferring them to the external memory to gain some space. This will slow the entire system down. DONT DO IT TRUST ME, pick your favourite apps and be done with!!

3. I have a Sony Smartwatch 3 and paired it with the phone and installed the Lifelog app. Currently (10th September) this app will slow your C5 Ultra down, it may not be optimised for Mediatek processors yet. Id wait for the app to be updated before you use/download it. Use the Google Fit app which works fine and can be left on even in stamina mode.

4. Don't expect the battery to be as good as a Sony Xperia Z3, its close and you will be happy with the C Ultras battery life but don't expect flagship battery life. (this may change as the battery on my C5 Ultra has not been run in plus I've been using this phone constantly!! Also the phone is on 5.0 lollipop and not 5.1.1 so the memory leak bug is probably there.) The good news is the battery life is better than the Z Ultra!

5. The phones 3g/4g signal is pretty weak, I thought the Z3 was bad but this is worse, hopefully in the next firmware update this will be resolved.

The good:

Being a heavy phone user and my previous phones being : Xperia Z, Z Ultra, Z2, Galaxy note 2, 3, 4, Nexus 6 and Xperia Z3 I can honestly say now that I have solved the phones problems, this is the best phone I have owned, its the perfect size and price for me. The Screen is gorgeous, both cameras are great, the in call speaker is better than the Z3. I got the official dock as well and love the portrait orientation. As you can see the Phone completes the rest of my Sony setup (Yep my whole house is a Sony Shop LOL!)!! Anyway, enjoy and if your after a phablet sized sony phone then this is the one to have. Thanks.

Lost good old default Google Photos app

I accidentally updated Google Photos app when prompted and the new one is crap **** with very very less editing options.

I uninstalled the whole app and now i'm without any google photo app.

I created a new user in phone itself and the Google Photos app appears there perfect but then I want it back for my Default user.

So I know its present on the phone itself but no more available for the default user.

Can somebody tell the trick it to get back on default user?

Or post the app from Kitkat version of xperia z3??? so i can simply install the apk.

good news my freinds ! officiall 5.1.1 for our note edge n915f

Audio through headphones surprisingly good

I'm not going to lie. Coming from an iPhone and a Galaxy S6 (my Moto G is sort of an interim phone while I sell those two to afford new stuff this fall), I expected the Moto G to sound considerably worse. And yeah, it's not quite as good. But it's certainly far from the worst I've had and I've only owned expensive devices in the past. The bass is punchy, the treble is fairly decent, and the volume levels aren't awful (although I may increase mixer_paths at some point to gain a couple levels). I've actually been listening through fairly decent earbuds for the past 40 minutes or so to various types of music (alternative, acoustic, heavy stuff, rap) and I could definitely live with this sound quality if I had to.

It is pretty damn amazing what ~0 buys you today.

Looking for a good "Video Recording" security app. Any suggestions?

Hey guys,

I recently got a new roomate for my apartment and I am leaving for the weekend. I have a strange feeling he isn't super trustworthy.

I have a Nexus 7 (2013) that I hardly use and plan on leaving here this weekend. I was wondering if there are any playstore apps or third party apk downloads for an app that does the following:
- Detects motion
- Once motion is detected, Video Records the area until movment is no longer detected, or can record for a certain length of time (like 60 secs)
- Get alerts and videos on my phone when I am away

I know there are a few apps on the play store but they all seem to only take pictures. If my roomate decides to do some snooping, I would like to see it all on camera.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Jake

Is wireless charging good for your Edge+?

So I just got a Edge + (Gold 32GB btw hehe xd) and I don't know If I should use the samsung wireless charger.
I'm afraid that it will addict my battery since sometimes I will take it off the charger and put it back on, is that bad for the battery?
