Hello folks,
I know this is a strange request, but it has a simple reason.
I owe an OnePlus 3 for daily use with FreedomOS installed, unfortunately there are no updates anymore for this ROM.
Now I wanted to try different ROMs to find the best for me. Would be great if I could use Moto Play or Samsung J7 for that. The plan is to know exactly what I want and be able to fast flash my OnePlus 3 this way.
Even if I still looking for my next phone, I'm not be able to find it right now. maybe an Huawei or Xiaomi, but that is a different story.
Thanks for your help!

1. Pretty good
2. No but it charges quite fast still.
3. idk.
4. Great
5. I like it. It is not a flagship camera but pretty good for this price range. I've read that the quality of the camera in the custom rom's is worse than in ZUI. Dunno about that. I never used ZUI and I am happy with custom roms and their picture quality.
Hi All,

Thanks everyone for the help. Beast is coming very soon.:laugh:
Just for 11k INR.
What about the issues reported about its touchscreen, VoLTE, etc., because unlike other devices' forums here on xda, I'm seeing so many threads regarding random issues; I'm unsure if this is because of the user or the quality of this phone. Agreed, this phone is fantastic value for money, but these random apparent issues just keep me doubting the Z2. I'd like to use this phone for about 3-4 years before an upgrade.

Okay so I have been following all the threads about the phone.
Volte is working fine on stock with no issues and also on custom. ROMs now.
Touch screen issue I dont have idea. Other things are fine as per info I have. For 11k INR can't expect SD820 but I'm getting it soon.
As of now I'm using redmi note 3 and Dev support for it is awesome. I see Dev support for Z2 is also fine.

Thank you for the quick reply. While the Z2 may be a good choice, I'm tempted to get the G5 Plus or the Redmi Note 4, because they're both phones that are well put-together. If I could, I'd get the OP3T for the same reason. Or a Droid Turbo off eBay. Just a few phones I'm considering. The Z2 Plus doesn't seem like wise choice considering long-term use (3-4 years) and overall reliability (without giving me random issues), at least not to me (yet). Just a gut feeling. Or maybe I'm being too cautious. But I'm sure if did get it, I'd unleash the flashaholic in me and flash a rom right after I receive it :laugh:
Do post a little review and camera samples (preferably while running a custom rom; I could find only stock rom samples) after you get your hands on it! For 11k it's definetely a steal! :victory:

If you don't mind sharing, how is AICP working with 4G. Do you have Jio - does video call etc work?
PS: I ordered on 19th night and got it on 22nd. Waiting to flash right ROM!!

Wow, lucky you...!!! [emoji39] I saw the offer a few hours later, and until then 64GB-11k offer was gone. But I still ordered 32GB at 10k from Flipkart and using it since last 24hrs. It's a good phone. The size of the phone is really perfect. I had thought that I won't be liking ZUI, as I'm always on stock through Custom ROMs, but surprisingly, it's good. Gonna use it for some time. Will flash custom ROM once I get bored with ZUI. [emoji106]

China - bloatware - no need

Eu - everything global has and more regarding updates, root ability, and twrp working without issues.
EU. Plain and simple. Anyone tells you otherwise, they haven't tested enough.

Hi opasha,
Appreciate that. But I need to touch on something I asked you before. I researched the xiaomi mi a2. It works on verizon flawlessly even when verizon implies it may not work on their network. In like manner and the fact that both phones are xiaomi, do you think the mi max 3 can still work on verizon?

I've got to be honest , with the options for Miracast ( built in) and Chromecast ( using apps) i would have thought plugging in a phone these days is a bit superfluouse. I've been using both to cast my phone to a Projector ,TV and Speakers, and have not even thought about USB 3 leads now.

The device has the potential but Samsung security and exynos processor are making it hard to be on full loose. But, as is evident from the history of other Samsung devices with exynos like j7 prime and many others, and also pretty good specs, we can expect a good number of developers to grab this one.

Still, all of this depends on how many people will go with redmi note 7 pro. I hope people realize that this time (and probably for the first time), Samsung is providing a better option than xiaomi at a little higher price.

Yes Brother.. hope they will push new update for A50.
I would like to start development on Galaxy A50. Currently waiting for open source kernel, I recently requested Samsung to release source code lets see. Need some testers maybe who can take risk of unlocking bootloader and installing custom ROMs, recoveries, kernels.
I am happy with camera, gaming particularly pubg(made for pubg) and display.
But fingerprint sensor needs lot of work.
They already gave one update for fp.
Hello Friends,
Just got my hands on the A50. Great display and good specs. Waiting for devs to pour in some goodies. Especially no HAL3 support

How is the public response in Europe?
Moved from ASUS Max Pro M2 to this beauty yesterday. Amazing device and I'm loving it.
I'm getting mine on Monday, really excited to get this one! just a question, does anyone know if in Europe (I live in Portugal) it comes with a rubber cover for the a50 inside the box?

There is none as you can't unlock the bootloader.
In all honesty you made a huge mistake if you bought the phone so you could simply install a stock rom on it. If that were the case then you should've gone with the OnePlus 6t

Not completely true, I was able to unlock the bootloader. So were a few other people. I bought the code from funky huawei, who doesn't seem to sell codes for the View 20 anymore Don't know if there are other sites...
Concerning roms, i only tried the ones from OpenKirin (Omni and Resurrection). The "stock feeling" is there but they are missing some features i really want to have. In addition, the camera is not nearly as good as the stock one. At the moment i am staying with Magic UI + Root. The guys from OpenKirin are doing a good job though, don't get me wrong

Think it was 10 €.
Greetings,
I'm interested in buying this phone mostly because it seems to have a good camera on paper for my <20k INR budget and the UI is a personal favourite of mine, just below the OxygenOS.
I would love to hear your experience with the camera, if it supports the GCam mod properly, and does the chunky design of the phone really make you reconsider buying it?
I would also love to know if you've tried anything to make the hdr10 work outside the YouTube app.
Thank you
I intend to get one if its easy to root the phone. Is it possible?

Yeah, from what I gathered online, all moto phones have a very similar and simple way to root them.
I remember having to write a letter to Xiaomi on why I wanted to root my phone and wait a week just to have the ability to unlock the bootloader of my Redmi note 4 lol. Moto's method is definitely way easier than that.

would system be read/write though? I've been out of the loop for a while, is there any fix for it yet?
if you're purchasing now, then there's no ROMs, TWRP, or anything.. but u can easily unlock bootloader and use ADB coz its Stock Android.. so if you want custom ROMs.. now you can just wait.. (if any ROM developer sees this.. if u own a Moto G40F.. pls make ROMs for this device.. thanks)
