Hi everyone, I bought my Note 2 (7100) about one week ago.
Before i had Htc One X, and I also have battery isues there - I think than I make something wrong, maybe someone can help me
What's the problem:
If i press Note 2 in some places, I can hear crackles, creptius (i'm not sure are these words correct, I'm not very good at english)
I read in internet than some note 2 are creptiusing. I dunno - should I send fone to warranty ?
Second problem is with battery:
When I saw thread "post your battery stats" i thought than mine are much worse
Some screenshots here:
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B9ee7OsPV7k8SWJQV0JmcG9rc2c/edit?pli=1
I'm on [email protected] rom with redpill 0.10 kernel (i read than this one has the best battery life)
Sorry for my bad english
Cheers
In terms of the creaking noise that you hear when pressing around on the cover, it is perfectly normal -- some phones don't exhibit it at all, others slightly or more worse; it seems to be worse for some people if they remove their battery cover frequently and in all likelihood is a side effect of the plastic tabs wearing slightly from being bent during the removal and installation process (hence why it seems to get worse with a higher frequency of cover removals). I wouldn't worry about it too much, in a worst case scenario you could probably get Samsung to send you a new battery door.
Yep, but I'll send it to samsung at monday, battery is strange...
7% trough nigh (7hrs), sync off, gps off, wifi on - great signal. phone - great signal, any notifications at morning
1% trough 3hours, sync on, wifi on but not connected, very low/no signal, a few minutes screen on (about 5), one message
And my hardware button (menu) is moving right left up and down when I hook it with nail :/
Also my speaker is loosely in cover, i can move it about 0,5 mm right and left.
My friend has also note 2 and his device isn't creacking or anything, it has good fitted button and speaker.
Any suggestions about battery ? I don't think that is hardware problem, because I have that same strange battery life on one X, sometimes 6-7hrs screen on, sometimes 2-3... dunno why
Now I have about 4hrs screen on, If I have screen all the time turned on 100-0% is about 6-7 hrs, some people (preety much all) has about 12-13 hrs !
OK so after one year with my HTC sensation XL ,I decided I want to get upgraded and try something new. My options were galaxy S3,S4 or HTC one and the note ll. From all those I want the note ii. I want some reviews from you guys about the phone. The things that I most care about is how is the battery and is the screen is strong.
Should i get the otter box case with the front glass protector?
Not sure which model you are getting but the n7100 has a slightly better battery performance than the lte version plus more custom roms. I'm running the n7105 (lte version) and can comfortably get 4.30 hours screen time plus last all day on a single charge. I'm just using a gel case with screen protector. I have dropped it several times and no damage so I don't think otterbox is needed unless you are giving it an extremely hard time. From what I've read the n7100 can give you 6 hours screen time btw
Sent from my GT-N7105 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I'm N7105 user.
I must say that the battery life is much much better than on the N7000, however as it has a large screen it still uses a lot of energy.
So I will compare the battery life (on N7105) to other devices:
-Much better battery life than on the n7000
-Seems close to the S4 Zoom battery life
-Uses much more battery than LG L9 II (D605), as it had a great screen (very bright).
I'm a very advanced user of smartphones, I have a lot of apps installed, however the battery will last untill the evening. It uses like 27% for 2h10min. (browsing internet).
Also please keep in mind I'm using Android 4.1.2, the new 4.3 uses much more energy.
Talking about display, it's good. I don't know if You've already seen it, but the angles and colors are good. However minimal brightness won't be enough for daily use (as it was in LG). Also android 4.3 has some issues with auto brightness, as it gets simply too dark.
And about the protective case. I always use rubber like protectors for the back, and it does a great job. You don't have to worry if the phone hits the ground, it won't have any damage.
And for the screen, I only use a basic screen protector (against scratches).
If You would like to know more just PM or quote this text.
Im about to buy a 2nd hand note ll, I've seen there are many chinese version that are fake. Is there a way to know if it's really Samsung product or so fake **** that isn't real.
one more thing, I know many phones that the battery is getting low even without use and it's beause the 3G is on, does it also with note ll?

I'm not using 3g but wireless and that's true. If You're disconencted from the network battery lasts longer.
About the fake version, it's quite easy to recognize. Just check the spen, no other phone has it, so if spen is there (and has all his functions) then it's an original one.
Please keep in mind that some Note 2 models have problems with random reboots, they suddenly freeze and You can't wake them up, so buy a one that has a warranty.
Those reboots and freeze cannot be solved? with recovery and another roms?
Hi
For the receivers of the very fist batch that should be arriving to your door step please share your first impressions / photos / videos
I pre ordered the second batch, to be dispatched around may 16th.
P
I've got the phone since Friday now (3rd day) and it's a great phone.
+ Recharge, overall quality, screen, feel in the hand, amazing speakers.
- Fast drain on batery, yellow tint on the bottom of the screen (as many others)
pics: click here
Phone quality is great
Speakers are loud and crisp
Fast charge is an added bonus.
Camera shutter is instant.
No yellow tint
Buggy OS:
-Sometimes ColorOS reverts my changed settings.
-Phone mutes all notification sounds after a restart.
Dead pixel on far right, the dead pixel is so darn small it's not even noticeable unless you thoroughly search for a dead pixel.
have you guys tried Beta 2.0 of color OS ?

No i have not. It's not much, but it is there...
I got mine on Friday ( 2nd). So far I really like the phone. Same as others have said....
Pros:
Fast charging times
speakers sound quality are really quite good ( this was a bonus for me)
very responsive
lots of theme options
feels like a large Nexus 5 to me.
Cons:
Color OS takes some getting used to
viewing angles are a little washed out ( not as good as my M8 or note 3)
idle time on battery needs some tweaking
Overall I am glad I purchased the 7a.
The os is pretty much in an early alpha state and requires a few more updates to actually be fully usable.
Some features suck battery like it's cotton candy, but the superb sound and awesome screen make up for it.
If you wish to make it through a day on one charge then turn everything you don't need off and change the lock screen because the normal lock screen is glitched and drains your battery on standby.
Overall it's a great device with a not so great operating system.
But people like entropy are already working on the first custom ROMs so that should be handled soon.

Received mine last Monday, started playing with it Tuesday, got a sim for it Wednesday.
I'll preface this by stating I'm coming from a 3 year old HTC Inspire 4g so if somethings seem "wrong" well it's light years difference between the Inspire and this Oppo Find 7a
My first suggestion would be to put the 2.0 beta on it, been running it since yesterday and so far I think it "feels" more stable than the 1.2.x that comes with the phone. Most importantly I haven't had a single SD issue since updating to 2.0b.
Sound/speakers are amazing. Granted I'm no audiophile but considering my other 2 devices, HTC Inspire 4g and HP Touchpad, this sounds night and day better than both.
Speed is blazing, again though I am coming from a 3 year old phone (single core).
Battery life is great for me even from the start. Even w/o comparing it to the abysmal life of my previous device I'd still consider this good.
No yellow tint for me so can't comment on that
The phone is light as heck and the size is great. I thought I'd have problems since I have such small hands but none to speak of.
Downside is no custom rom yet and as I'm used to CM the features and nomenclature are different and a bit annoying having to think about doing something where as I'm used to being able to just do it.
An annoying thing is the flip case that came with the preorder turns the screen on/off which seems like a great idea, it's just implemented wrong. When I put my phone in the cubby hole in my truck the screen turning on and off is distracting. I've read others are discovering it's turning on and off in their pockets too.
No LTE for me until I "backdoor" it since AT&T doesn't recognize this device. I registered it and got a new sim twice and my account still shows that I'm on my Inspire 4g. Granted I don't use a lot of data so not really a priority, but still would be nice to have it even if I don't use it all that much. Then again with the speed and battery life of this phone that might change.
Got mine Friday. Love the screen size and colours, the overall built quality, the sound of the speakers and the fastcharging.
I am on a rooted ColorOS 2.0 (International) Beta and I must admit I actually like it's clean look and feel. I will probably go for a custom kernel and rom in the long run though.
I do not like the white back, not much grip for me and I really hate the pleather case that came with it.
The batery drain is also a minor problem for me.
Overall it's still the best phone I owned and I recommend it (unless you have really tiny hands)

Is ColorOS 2.0 a big difference than what it came with? I am currently on V1.20i. Ive been holding off from rooting until I start seeing some real ROM action.

Screen seems to react a little quicker to touch. 2.0 seems a crisper and smoother rom. I really love the blurr effect. Voice wakeup und Live Weather 2.0 are also pretty nice.

LTE works great if you give them an IMEI from a 4G phone like a Nexus 5. Just call ATT and have them change your IMEI, presto... your LTE will work like a champ!

I had an 4g phone, but not a LTE phone. I gotta borrow a friend's phone one day and do that, eventually.
Solid build but buttons are little bit hard to press IMO.
Great screen. Very bright though. Camera is good.
Color OS features are nice but there is one bug with cellular network battery usage. I think it doesn't go into deep sleep because of it and drains battery on standby mode especially if you have screen off gesture on. If you turn this feature off, it's a lot better. I do not have yellow tint problem.
I wish we can swap back plates like One Plus. I like to use my phone without cover and the back plate is white.
The touch is very responsive. I have to change Touch & hold delay to medium to prevent accidental click while scrolling. Then again, I'm using a screen protector which comes with the phone and it might be the screen protector problem.
The speaker is loud. Really really loud. I am HTC M7 user and I think Find 7 speaker is better than M7.
best phone I ever had.
hardware: Impressive built quality, awsome gorilla glass with almost perfect touch (but I had to remove that **** of screen protector that killed touch sensitive), conversation quality is like havin ur friend talkin beside you and it get signal where other phones die.
software: I m using colorOS 1.2i, it has lacks of some feature, but it sports everything you really need and it does it fast and easy to use. It's like a stock android with kool features. Never had bug like force closing of apps....for me it's much better to use than a touchwiz and I feel like I m using a reactive nexus or a cooked rom.
camera: should I spend words? no...it's the best, there's no competion. it doesnt have any gimmick feature like htc zoe..but it's so easy and fast to find the settings u need, just shoot! and pics are nearly professional.
loudspeaker: it's in gods arena, beside z2 and htc one. if htc m8 is the king in this way, find7a is a prince, and u ll be happy of having.
Battery drain: kernel and governor need to be fixed. I had a good 6% of drain when using it with lte and screen on, but I also had 5.5% in stand by mode. so....here it's how I fixed and now I get 1.5% in standby (tnx to Gsam and Wakelock apps):
-removed stock google news and wheater widget, it doesnt allow sleep mode and it drain 1.5% of battery per hour
-removed yahoo wheater app (removing just widget is unuseful)...saved other 1.5%
-WIFI advanced settings : everythin off but optimization wifi...saved another 1.5%
- I use pattern unlock mode, from ever, someone reported that using stock colorOS mode drains battery
I noticed that when switching off WIFI , 3g/4g connection is already on...never happened with other phones, they all took some seconds for 3g to be working, maybe this means connection drain battery as it never goes really off even when is under wifi? dunno..
something I didnt like , but doesnt matter:
-power button sucks, it s less than half millimeter, so it's very hard to push it. but I dont really care, I use double tap to lock and unlock it!
-back cover. it's good and has grip, nice color and wotever...but it's very very slim and flexible. due it's so slim, antenna works like a blackberry but I m afraid it will destroy itself easily, bcs it's already starting to be flexible at my touch.
-screen: awsome , color are very good, but a more calibrated temperature can improve it. it's not blueish like some reviewr says...but a better temperature could improve its gamma as well, that s very high (I used to calibrate televisions some years ago so I have a special look on screens). at a first look , find7a screen is like an LG g2 screen with a wrong calibration (but more realistic colors ).
-It arrived with a dead pixel , but it s impossible to notice it due it's a full-hd screen, so I really dont give a shot about it.
-yellow screen, there's a yellow ghost at the base of the screen for 2 millimeters...but believe me guyz, I v seen ppl going crazy on forums for this, It's something u can notice only on a completely white screen and if nobody tells u, your not going to see it! but if u love perfection, I can say that it went away after some days of usage...I m sure it's glue and it takes some days of warm screen to be fixed.
-optional case: tnx oppo to send me such a gift in real leather, but I trash it after 1h. software doesnt support this case, having it in my pocket means it opens itself and screen goes on, but when u close it , the screen stays on anyway. I have to open it to pick up a call! wtf! why does it have such a window if I have to open it???
-warranty: oppo policy in europe is to send the phone I dont know where in europe, they will send I dont where in china, someone I dunno will decide if I have to pay to repair the phone. anyway I will pay to ship it. Ok, I accept to save 300€ on s5, m8, z2...and get 1+ if I destroy my find7...
just my opnion, everyone has his needs, wot is good for me can be bad for u...

So what is standby time after your fixes? People complained that the phone drains 50% of battery over night. So if the phone can't keep charge for 2-3 days it is useless for me. I do not use phone lot, so always forget to charge, so I need 2-3 days at least and I am getting 5 days with my current Nexus One.
So apparently 2.0b didn't fix the SD card issue so I'm just going to put in my old 16gb Sandisk that I've been using for a year and half and see what it does. If it works then I'll just assume the card I was sent is faulty/fake. Read speeds are between 20-35 megabytes while copying stuff off of the card onto my hard drive so that seems a bit slowish?

It seems like a lot of people are having problems with the SD cards purchased from Oppo. I wonder if they got a bad batch.
Hi,
in this thread we can talk about new model from Oukitel, it is about K6000 Pro. Most important is that they have put much greater attention to the quality of the phone, also it has much more powerful hardware than the previous model like 3GB of RAM. but certainly the most important feature is the high capacity battery with 6000 mAh capacity.

In Cons i can add:
- No backlighted soft touch keys
- No 64 bit Android version
- Usb connector is a bit deeper inside tge frame, so standard cables couldn't works well with quick charge or data transfer
- No Compass and No Gyro

nice reviews people
Camera has a very poor perfomance. Rom is 32 bits (seems a port of 5.1 K6000 rom).
I have mine for two weeks.
I think that K6000 'original' runs better.
mine arrived yesterday: great build overall but as first impression it becomes really hot when you try to play at games
Camera color shift
Hi, please, I would like to ask you shortly. Camera on my Oukitel K6000 Pro has some kind of issue. As well as on my Bluboo Xtouch, it shows some color deviation aroud the borders of taken image. At specific circumstances in the middle, there is the circle which looks to represent colors correctly and outside of that circle the color is shifted to blue. Both phones behaves the same. In some cases its not that visible, in some its dramatic. Im not sure whether its fault of some picture profiles/scene profiles, or its fault of optical elements. .
Then, the display color is pretty cold. It would deserve some correction. Can I somehow tweak it? Calibrate it to look more natural. Or can you suggest some color correction app with low battery drain?
Otherwise I am very satisfied and pleased by the phone. Really balanced in allways, well constructed phone.
Thank you for help guys.
Mike

Have you fixed the wifi bug? I am on the latest rom and noted the wifi was always running. The issue is with background scanning. If you have background scanning on and turn wifi off, wifi never actually stops running. All you need to do is disable background scanning on the wifi page and you will be good to go.
low score
the score from Antutu is too low, looks like the performace will not good. Just hear that bluboo release a new phone Maya max, which looks great, and im looking forward to try it.
One question
Anybody can please tell me if long pressing the home butto bnrings to google now and if the function "now on tap" works?

How to show open apps in oukitel k6000 pro?
Hi guys,
I just purchased this phone and it actually blew away my expectations with such low price and all nice features incl huge battery. Pokemon Go apps known to drain battery pretty fast but this phone can hold it very well. I don't need to charge for entire day.
Now to the issue. My old phone is Samsung Galaxy S4. Now if I wish to switch from apps to apps just like tab button in laptop/PC, I simply press home button for 2 seconds and it will show all open apps. I simply choose the apps I want to jump to and walla! it opened. Now the same result can't be achieved with Oukitel K6000 pro. Pressing home button longer simply bring me to google search.
Question is how to show open apps and switch between opened apps in this phone? Do we have luxury in setting the function of buttons to our liking?
Thanks in advance!
Cheers,
Ricky

Bricked Stupid update procedure
Doesn't all android phones nowadays work with Google Assistant?
My ROG2 and ROG6 has Google Assistant but I always disable them.
I thought Google requires/mandates all OEM so include some specific Android features and Google-made apps.

They do and I also always disable it too along with a tonof other things from Google. Google Assistant is basically spyware along with most of the other junk from Google. Result is improved privacy and increased device performance/battery life.

That's true but also happens with all company's
The company I trust the less: Apple.
Has been a beautiful experience for me. Most smooth smartphone experience i have ever had. Battery king, performance king, and the only weakness ROG phones have ever had has been fixed with the new sensor - speaking of the camera of course.
with the camera now finally usable, it is the complete package for me. After successfully converting my CN device to WW, i think im staying with this one for a while and selling my S22 Ultra.
you would need to be very careless and not read through instructions / forum threads to brick your device, flashing WW raw files is as simple as a button click.
How do speakers loudness & quality compare with:
- any previous ROG phones
- S22 ultra (just kidding)

The battery life you should be able to achieve with a hardcore debloated and battery optimized ROG 6 should be ridiculous high. My ROG 5 & 3 easily do multiple days on a full charge with data on and normal screen time and can do a week+ on standby with data on as a reference. I haven't bothered measuring the max screen time I get out of them. ROG 6 running on the latest 8+ Gen 1 chipset allegedly has significantly improved power consumption stats - which should result in great battery time even if not heavily optimized and monster results if optimized with battery performance in mind.
Can't wait for my rog 6 pro to arrive. Shipping starts 09.01 .
Imagine developers on xda tweaking the back panel to show battery life/ram or even using own gifs as animation on the back side. I will definitely create some wallpapers or gifs for rom developers as contribution. Not to bad if there isn't any development as the the device is still amazing af.
Hint 1: The device sadly doesn't come with a preinstalled screen protector. But there is one you can purchase on the Asus store.
Hint 2: The devilcase actually has a transparent plastic area so the backside is actually fully protected. (even if it doesn't look like that on the store pictures)
I initially wanted to buy the Redmagic 7s pro but I've noticed too many downsides. Even tho i was pretty satisfied with my red magic 5g over the years.
Rog 6 pro
1. Has better battery life.
2. No translation issues in the software.
3. Water resistance to a specific grade.
4. Brighter screen
5. Higher refreshrate.
6. Better speakers.
7. Two Usb C ports
8. Better camera quality
9. Back panel for visuals
10. More trigger functionality
11. Preorder includes the cooling fan
12. Better network reception and WiFi connectivity for sure
13. HDR10+ support
14. better fine-tuning for custom game presets.
On the other hand the red magic 7s pro has:
1. highest possible performance of the sd 8 + gen1 out of the box without an external cooler.
2. Game core to offload gaming related inputs from the Snapdragon soc.
3. less bezels
4. faster charging
5. aprox 400-600 € cheaper compared to rog 6 pro
Hard choice tho. I've chosen rog 6 pro just because red magic still didn't fix translations issues. I've even seen translation issues on a German youtube review of the red magic 7s pro. What a shame

Its a no contest for me , ROG 6 wins purely because of massive battery and the samsung panel, not to mention the camera.
Also, i can confirm the device DOES have preinstalled screen protector. I bought two devices (CN 256GB and Global 512GB) and they both had it.

You're the one to ask then. Is there that much of a difference in software once you put the CN version into English? Call recording available on the CN version?
How're you liking them? How's battery? Lol thanks
Hi all, did anyone try connecting a type-c to hdmi cable/hub and managed to get it to work? I tried it with a Baseus hdmi+usb hub and Samsung Dex station, both not working. Phone is CN version and connected through the usb 3.1 port with aero-cooler attached to the other port.

Hi, I can confirm it's working on the sided USB-C with Dell USB-C docking station - Dell D3100.
It does work with:
- HDMI signal -> HDMI switch -> Samsung 32"
- mouse Logitech G604
- keyboard G915 does not always work.
- soundcard Creative X G6
It was without Aerocooler with I'm selling since I don't play games. I just wanted to have a fast, smooth smartphone with 512GB of memory to replace my Oneplus 7 Pro 12/256 (it's such a great phone BTW).
Maybe I'm impatient and can't wait for the global version to start shipping but can someone who owns the devil case for rog phone 6 or 6 pro measure the scope vertically and horizontally with the case installed please? I want to order a custom phone bag and don't want to wait for the device to arrive.
I'd be very grateful Thanks!

ROG 6 imo based on stability, battery size and screen from Samsung which is really good.
The thing 7s Pro has is faster charging (it you need that fast) and longer software support which is nice. This software is less good though and less stable (have used the 7)
