of course this is not exclusive for G3 although I'm using G3 now...
I'm curious what are the best apps for our android devices from xda members here; what I want is apps that are efficient and have no bloats... at the moment I'm looking for office app, the one preloaded in G3 is rather meh...
if such thread already available somewhere here I'm sorry please link it to me.
Hello Guys !
Nice to see the activity down here at XDA.
Let me quickly mention here that I, and @DooMLoRD have recently joined YU as Developer Relations and Community Managers.
(I don't know how many of you know either of us, but lot's of <3 to all those who have used either of ours works on custom ROMs and Kernels before on XDA)
We do have our own support forum at http://forums.yuplaygod.com, which you can feel free to visit and be a part of. We are running many contests from time to time on our forum as well .
I would ask any of the moderators, to please stick this thread if possible.
If you have any questions to us directly, please ask here. We will try to share as much with you, as soon as possible. (Of course some info cannot be shared, like if you ask us to tell about the next phone we are planning and don't bug us with update ETAs )
Regards, and a Happy New Year from the YU Team
Good to know you guys are working for YU.
I use Xperia Pro, so I have come across your work in several threads, I now expect lots of developments for this device(Hopefully my next).
I have a few questions
1. Will YU(no pun intended :laugh provide Wi-Fi Direct options in forthcoming updates?
2. Does this device come pre rooted/what about bootloader?
3. Any info about device availability? Will there be sufficient amount of devices for the upcoming flash sale?
I have a question, will YU be available outside India in the future? I'm from Europe,and i'm very interested in this device..
Queries
When will it get Lollipop ....
Give me a Detailed Specs including. sensor list
Will it support Quick charge 2.0
will it have double tap to wake
Does it ship with Recovery by itself
Can we use. Bootloader unlock oem straight away ..Or i have to request for code with Imei no.
Will it have other white soft touch back cover. sold in amazon
What are. The exact terms And conditions. applied******

1. WiFi direct is already present on the software that will launch will the phone. And it will remain present over future updates
2. The device will not come pre rooted, but if users do root it, we will provide the same terms of warranty to them.
We/Cyngn will provide a debuggable kernel from our side.
fastboot oem unlock command can unlock bootloader, you do not need a key from our website. Exactly like it is done on Nexus models.
3. There will be multiple flash sales. The units going up on sale on each iteration will be limited, but the numbers will ramp up over time.

Right now, for the first couple of sales as much as I am aware, Amazon.in can ship only to Indian cities.
As far as the company YU is considered, we definitely have global ambitions, and we are looking at how we can reach out the people outside the subcontinent.
Whether global shipping will be available on future sales of the same model, or we will start going global with future models is something that is still under works.

Please refer to the http://yuplaygod.com website, and the Hardware section of http://forums.yuplaygod.com for technical details.
Many of your queries are already present on them, and if not, you'll definitely get answers if asked on the forums.
Double Tap2Wake is present. It ships with Cyanogen Recovery (NOT CWM). (ref: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_bootable_recovery-cm )
"Playing God", Really? YU need to produce a Real Kick Ass Device before you presume to Play God.
The YUreka is not that device. It's cheap and that's it. Nothing Original. Cyanogen did not do anything different other that new Icons all else is the same as Oneplus. Come on Men even the YU Logo was Taken From SONY's PlayStation's. YU remind me of the Amazon Fire Phone. They too talked a lot and then did not sell enough.
Come up with something original and really innovative and stop presuming to play god.

If it doesn't. Have Magnetometer sensor then how will GPS ""Navigation"" work ??
if it does work how will it point directions ...Street view ...
I want to use offline Compass App
I want to record Directions while Taking Photo sphere !!!!
Can any 1 confirm it using All specs checking Apps like Cpu Z Or is the Magnetometer Sensor Driver missing in CM 11
Cool Pad F2 SD version shows that it has E compass in a shipping Company 's. Website
As you says warranty not void if we rooted our phone so my question is can we get*regular official OTA after the root?

AFAIK, If you are on official cm11s build then you will get further OTA updates even after root..
but you will probably loose root.

The YU Yureka is missing most of the sensor support that is present on the Coolpad F2 including e-compass (just check youtube reviews showing sensor support for both phones). So it won't be showing any directions what so ever...

The Coolpad F2 has it, while the YU Yureka doesn't have it. So the hardware is not identical.

This phone seemed stellar in most way until Asus announced its Zenfone 2.
So just out of curiosity, can you please address these queries below:
1. As of Zenfone 2, due to 64-bit architecture 4GB RAM was possible on device and hence the advantage. Yu also has a 64-bit architecture SoC, but what is the advantage?
2. How does Snapdragon 615 perform against Intel Atom Z3580 (on the Zenfone 2)?
3. Yureka is the first model from YU, are there any other model in the works (probably another re-brand)?
4. The phone goes sale on 13th Jan, means as soon as order is kept it can ship immediately?
Confirmation email?
Forums.yuplaygod.com
I have waited 2 days and tried 2 different ids, none of them got any confirmation email.
I have developed for lg optimus l 3, micromax canvas music and micromax unite 2. I would like to join the forum to support the development for yureka.

Battery Comparison???
How is the battery life when compared with Moto G 2nd gen and also battery drain connected to sony smartwatch 2 whole of the time with data pack on and some litle fair usage??
So, wifi direct option is there in the rom.. I thought this phone didn't have wifi direct . Isn't it a hardware limitation ?
Hi guys , as lot of us I want a Pixel Rom with the Pixel Experience and most of all the Pixel Camera (So we can really use our camera sensor )
I have been in talks we some Developers of Pixel Roms and ask them if they would be interested in trying to make a Pixel Rom for our Mi5s and 4 of them answered me with a positive answer.
I'm creating this thread because for them to try to build the Rom we would need to join forces and Donate enought money so we could purchase them a Mi5s.
So if you are interested in a Pixel Rom and don't mind giving up a Buck for the cause just let me know in the Pool to see if this would be possible.
So I created a CrowdFunding campaing to see if we can reach the goal , I set the goal to 460$ to see if we could get two Mi5s to the two Dev's who are most interested.
If you want this to happen just donate 1$ it's a Beer and it would help alot!

Lads , after the dev reach His potential, what Is he going to do with the device? Kept or send it to another one? I have questions about that
So have you actually found a developer who ported camera software from pixel/nexus phones before ? (I suppose camera is the main goal for us, no doubt pixel is doing this job much better having same hardware). The camera app itself doesn't affect picture quality that much, it is rather result of usage of underlying algorithms. Porting rom (or doing it feel it like pixel has from the box using lineage or another existing rom) won't be a big problem for a specialist, but all underlying software may not be so easily accessible, because it uses google developments that they likely don't want to expose. I'm not a rom developer so just want to clarify things (maybe they already released all required drivers in open source and it is only problem of testing it on a real device )

Hi there , I think the point would be for him to stay with the device and we would only consider that of sending to another one if the choosen Dev won't be able to do anything per say.

What I did was asking some Developers from the Pixel section if they would be interested in making a Pixel Rom for the Xiaomi Mi5s and if they would be able to try to Port the Camera Firmware or Algorithms from the Pixel to the Xiaomi Mi5s.
Of course they can't know for sure if they are going to be able to do it but they said they would love to try , and that's the best answer we can get from anyone to be honest.
We have broken closed source libs lolololo. The camera is the toughest part of all. Totally.

If there is progress in this direction, then certainly is good news.
I think the only possible problem for this is that Google locked their prop libs to work only on Pixel. But I doubt it!!
I have disassembled the Google camera application and it checks the phone if it is Pixel or not.
If the libs were locked down I think it would mean an unnecessary double check.
I am a software developer myself and I am considering porting this to our device, however, I have no experience with android so far so it will take a bit of time.

I would like to help, but like you I'm a software developer and I don't know if I can help with my knowledge. But it's cool to see peoples interested to the improvement of this camera.
When and where do we donate money?
And I would like to see comments from the developer

Nexus Experience rom is very similar to pixel. http://www.nxrom.us/mi5splus.html I can't tell a difference from it vs the pixel rom on my 5x other than some LOS features included.
Google photo thinks it's a pixel (unlimited storage)
Flashing the google camera - https://www.xda-developers.com/google-camera-hdr-ported takes care of the camera part, although I use a separate app for video recording since its video recording is buggy and FCs

The list of officially supported devices is staggering and my choices to have it on a phone is even more limited. What makes this even harder is the Nexus line up of phones has been discontinued as far as I can tell so getting my hands on one to begin with will be a challenge in of itself.
I do notice the Nexus 5x is not on the list but would I be limited in any way if I want Nethunter on the phone?
What else should I pay attention for when looking on the market for a nethunter phone.

Despite my account being a bit old I visit this forum a handful of times so I'm sorry for the improper posting. I'll report my thread to have it moved.
I got my answer from somewhere else. So aparently there is much more supported devices found here. Definitely more to work with.
https://github.com/offensive-security/kali-nethunter/wiki
Is there any other hardware details or specs I should look for when shopping for a new phone? Specifically for the purposes of Nethunter.
I have a SKY Elite P55Max and it has And.11 Go edition as it's O.S. I'm not fond of this version of O.S. So, I'm asking if there is an alternative O.S. that will perform better and actually work better on this cheap backup phone? Same goes with the BLU C5l 8.1 Go edition. I know they are cheap phones...just asking if there are any better O.S systems I could put on these devices. Appreciate your feedback
Rick
OK, thnx for all the "advice". Let's try this: I've discovered Andronix. Did some reading up on it. What I surmised is that it would be a good O.S. Now, I've , also, tried to find the specs (chipset and GPU) for the SKY Elite P55Max and have come up empty. This is a low-end phone. Does anyone have any idea if Adronix would work properly on this phone?
RE: TO ANY MODS;
I should delete all my posts concerning the Shock cell phone. I didn't receive answers and now, have returned the phone to it's sender. Would any of you let me know how I can remove those posts. TY
