Hello guys...
I really like this phone and it was released on perfect timing since I am looking around for a new phone...
What bothers me is that some report here and there that there are some issues with the notifications...
1. Do you have any problems getting push notifications while having your phone connected with WiFi and having it for a while inactive? Some say that the connection drops so no push notifications appear in apps like Whatsapp, Viber, facebook etc...
2. If this really exists, does it happen when you're connected with Data too, or just with WiFi?
On a side note, I would like to ask you what is your opinion of Oneplus company so far... What I am really worried about is the various random small bugs that have been reported and since I never had a Oneplus phone I am wondering what's your experience from Oneplus company...
Should I hope on solutions or not?
Does it solve bugs? Are there frequent updates etc?
Should someone buy it or not?
It has just been released so I guess that it could be normal to have some bugs, I am just wondering what would be their policy according to your experience...
Sorry for mixing a little bit the topic of the discussion by posing a second question... If there's problem I will post in different thread...
I have no problem with notifications, both on wifi and mobile data. I´m with OnePlus since a jear now, have the One since mid 2015. My brother hast the two. They will provide updates and bugfixes, just look at the updates of the Two, which is available since two month now: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/general/rom-mirrors-official-oxygen-os-roms-ota-t3209863
I think it will be the same with our X. There is already a fist bugfix update available. They promised to deliver Android 6 in Q1 2016, we will see.
The One has support from cyanogen, they tried to fix the bugs and delivered updates. OnePlus has to deal with three devices only, so it should be better I think. And as soon as there are custom roms, the devs will fix the bugs too. So I see no reason, why not to buy it.

Thanks... That's really good news... I can confirm that there are a lot of people without serious issues with the phone...
So, I guess that it would be a low risk buy from my side considering Oneplus company being interested in their devices...
If someone else could also confirm problems or not on the notifications side with their devices that would be even better... :good:
Hi,
i have the Oneplus X for about a week now and I don't notify any Bugs or Issues with getting Notifications. Neither with WLAN or MobileData. Everything works fine there.
But there is a list with known Bugs at the official Oneplus Forum:
http__//forums.oneplus.net/threads/bugfix-proposed-gathering-reports-suggestions-for-new-updates.403586/
I can confirm some of this problems... but didn't tested all of them.
If you can live with this problems for now, the Oneplus X is a great phone. I hope they will fix most of the issues in the next weeks.
Otherwise if there are some problems which look really bad for you, perhaps you should wait for the next OTA to fix some of the problems.

Thanks for your post too...
I think that I am going to get it... These are just minor issues right now... On the other hand, if you had confirmed that there was an issue with a major thing such as the notifications, I would wait... I think I can rest reassured for now...

Is anyone happy with any of the Gen 8 firmware updates since 2.1.8?
If you are happy, please tells us specifically why?
I am very disappointed.

Succeeding fw updates caused more problems than improvements.
Rapid Battery drain issues
Wifi connection issues
Reboot looping
Audio player forced closures
White screen issues
Sluggish performance
UI fluidity update caused screen transition jerkiness
Deep sleep issues
Tethering issues
Very limited in going back to previous fw's
etc, etc, etc.....
And what about all the stuff that was defect in 2.1.0.8?
All the things you are talking about have effected a few users and thousends have never heared of them.
Wifi is mostly connected to the router ( ok that stupid >10channel thing coming back now and then ).
Batteriedrain is in 99% caused by the use of some software that doesn't let the tab sleep.
UI, if you stay with the std launcher there is no help. This is the same for every Android device, that's the reason why every rom has some other Launcher included.
Otherwise everything you talk about is fixed .
Is you glas half full or half empty?
Have you even considered that you are doing something wrong?

Again, if you are happy any firmware updates since 2.1.8, what are they specifically and why?
I never upgraded my 101 beyond 2.1.08 because it was stable for me. I did briefly play with a tablet with a newer firmware and didn't notice any issues.
I am still on 3.2.61 on my Gen tablet because it is working for me and none of the changelogs have mentioned Bluetooth fixes, which is my main issue.

Do you know this page:
http://update.archos.com/8/gen8/changes_firmware_archos_android_gen8.htm
Here's another questions:
Why do some users stick to the old times, while others live on the bleeding edge of daily updates?
I am happy with the updates, and i don't know any reason why not to do it.
The only thing that i miss sometimes are the working mpg codecs in the 2.3.81 firmware.
Have fun!

I usually take the first two or three updates immediately after release. If my Archos is working fine, then I usually wait to see what others say before updating after that, unless it is an OS upgrade or there is something in the changelog that fixes an issue I have. One of the reasons I wait is because sometimes you can't downgrade the firmware if you have major issues.

Hdmi viewing has always been a pain but with a ussb mouse i could gey around. Now its gone! So is my extenal keyboard.
This sucks.

I want a rom that fixes the gps on the cross c1. It doesn't work on the one I was sent.
I have ordered the UMI Cross / C1 from iShoppstore and am expecting delivery just after Christmas. I am aware the problems people have had with the Chinese smartphones regarding the Wifi and GPS connectivity but I believe for the most part these are fixable and have been documented elsewhere. So it is with interest that I await to see what problems I will have with mine. I did see some newspaper article that UMI were going to start selling their smartphones in the UK.... http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/business/news/umi-smartphones-to-launch-in-the-uk-29610580.html Not sure if this article is to be taken seriously though.
It would be nice to get the KitKat upgrade for this model though I doubt this will happen any time soon. I am very curious if you have resolved the issues you had with the Cross. Can you let me know how its going for you and what problems you've had as I'm sure my phone will be the same.
Cheers
The GPS is really finicky. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't. But, it never has worked throughout a complete trip of more than 10 minutes. I've had several other smartphones before this, some from China, and never had a GPS problem before. I guess it's just my time to experience what others warned me about. Still, I'm hopeful that a rom will be put out in the future that will resolve the GPS problem.
I'm finding the screen is not evenly lit but for me this is not a problem unless I look for it and most of the time you only notice it on a white screen. On Christmas day I spoke to my family using skype using the front facing camera over wifi and it worked flawlessly. Later on we did a test comparing the Sammy S3 and prev gen iPad front facing cameras and the C1 was definitely better. Tested bluetooth to link to home stereo briefly to play music on device, absolutely no problems. There is supposed to be a Yamaha sound chip but I can't make up my mind whether sound is better compared to my Note 1 when playing MP3s.
Call quality is better than my now broken Note 1 for sure and the 2G and 3G I really can't fault. Used the 3G quiet a bit on Christmas day as the house we were visiting did not have wifi and with the exception of some periods downloads were really pretty good. Haven't tested the GPS enough to pass a fair verdict. I did use it when I first got it and it jumped around a bit in Gmaps but I wonder if that was down to the fact I had put my 3G sim in the wrong slot so had no mobile broadband
Finding the phone is quiet slippery and the size adds to the problem so am eagerly awaiting a silicone cover for it. One thing I've noticed is when I turn the phone on the pattern unlock screen is a bit sluggish and I have to re-enter to unlock.
Anyone found any english manuals for this phone?
UMI CROSS
Using this phone since last week, build is just enough, nothing to impress neither to disgrace. I tested this phone for 2 days on stock rom, on stock ROM everything is working as it should but I do have doubts about wifi regarding link dropping. sometimes blurry camera, and just before I made my mind to switch to custom ROM, I did observed some random reboots. then I switched to LEWA OS 5. used it for another 2 days, NFC gone, blurry camera, Large icons. Finally I flashed MIUI, working great since then, still no NFC though. camera a bit improved(I rarely use mobile camera). after using Xposed modules=>app setting with per app dpi. results are impressive. this app really justifies the big screen and gives that most required tablet ui feel to apps. even some battery calibration issues are there, battery still produce awesome results throughout all ROMs. with heavy very usage battery lasted for atleast a day.

Not had any problems at all with Wifi or random rebooting, so maybe I'm just lucky. How does the NFC work is there an app on the phone to use it? Camera in low light is not good at all but a software upgrade should solve that. Will have to have a look at the Xposed Additions in the app store, wasn't aware of it before. Do you have a link for the MIUI rom for the Cross C1?
Overall I have to say I'm happy with the phone too and that big screen is great!

NFC works great but on stock, you can use trigger app. MIUI for c1 don't support NFC for now, as far as WiFi I am not confirm with issue..it may or may not be there..random rebooting started after connecting USB. But solved later by new ROM, camera is real let off for the phone. It may get better by ROM upgrade.
Use needrom for miui ROM with CTR recovery, and xposed 2.4.1, it worked for me...
About size, no one really notices the odd size of the phone. That's does qualify for nice design...
Overall its great for those who want phablet tablet in between.

Have you tried this rom and if so would like to know what you think. I imagine its as efficient as the MIUI5. Can you resize the icons on MIUI5 or can you use Nova launcher to do that. Would like to give the MIUI5 a go but will wait until I come back after holiday as I've more or less got my stock phone the way I want it and everything is working fine. Like you said I don't think the stock rom is very efficient but its fine for now.
Hi everyone. I received this phone in Ireland yesterday from antelife.com,(they have a bad rep, but are UMI official resellers and I had no problem with my order). I have rooted and kept the stock rom, and installed a custom recovery from needrom.com. I also installed xposed and gravity box. I have had no problems other than 3 times now my screen has gone haywire registering rapid phantom screen presses. Battery pulling is the only way to solve this temporarily. Has anyone else got this problem? Also how do we go about setting up an XDA section for our phone?
Thanks,
Teamick5
Touch wood no problems so far with my phone. Not properly tested yet is the GPS or NFC. Happy with the stock rom but am looking to flash a custom rom from needrom but will leave that for another few weeks. What do you think of the sound quality when playing music through headphones, not sure what to make of it? Camera quality especially in low light is pretty poor and in daylight jury is still out. Overall happy with purchase. Bit peeved of to find out warranty is void if not bought through an official retailer, all I can say if this phone goes south I won't be buying a Chinese replacement if they are going to be like that. iShoppstore where I bought mine do say on their website they would give a 1 year warranty so who knows!
Cheers
Tried my headphones today and there is a bug whereby the loudspeaker plays swell and won't auto shut off. Battery life has been excellent, unplugged yesterday morning at 8 and it finally died just after midnight in the pub. That was with constant heavy use all day and data on as I have no WiFi at home. I have also found an lenovo app called "lesafe" running in the background. I cannot enter it, what is it?
negative experience
speaker volume not loud enough and poor high pitch sound.
battery percentage erratic. when at 14% usage very long until 10% (i watched movie 1.5 hrs then 7 hrs standby, it died when i was listening radio and waze gps on). beyond 10% it dropped almost instancely. sometimes after reboot battery shows double!
can get into cwm recovery 1st few times but not anymore.
good points, camera/video, after gps fix very fast lock
yeah there should be a thread on umi cross.

So I am hoping it is official release from Umi Cross.
I just got an Umi cross and found some trojans on the device so I want to flash a new rom onto it but I'm not sure what to flash or how
I can't even get into recovery D:

---------- Post added at 08:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:44 PM ----------
Well this seems promising but I think a more important question would be when will Huawei start supporting unlocking the bootloader without the hassles of sending emails for the US version?
Thank you, and I wish you well with the beta program, but count me out. THANKS to those that will take the beta challenge, but I will wait for the final release.
Even after release, I'll wait a week or two, to see how it goes. If it appears stable, then I might have a go.
Why the hesitation? Because Huawei did such a great job of tweaking 4.3 to the specs of the mate2, that I have experienced ZERO issues! I can run for weeks without any lock ups, and only reboot it because I feel guilty that I haven't had to do anything to it. I see so many of my friends having this trouble or that trouble with their flagships, with the "latest & greatest" specs, that I just have to snicker that I spent 1/2 of what they did, and I get as much or more bang for the buck than they did.
4.3, on this device is so stable it begs the question for me and my use pattern. If it ain't broke, why fix it? Yes, at some point, there will be an app that I want to use, that will require LL, but, the 83 apps that I have on my device now, run perfectly. I even went so far, to install a few of the same apps on my device, as a coworker did on his Nexus 6, setting the screen brightness to the same levels, then, running the apps side by side. MAYBE there was a split second of difference in opening or running the apps, but, both were smooth, clear and easy to read. Yes, if you ran a benchmark, the N6 would blow the Mate2 out of the water, but, I'm talking about "real world" applications. Is that split second difference worth paying more than 2 times the price? Not for me.
Huawai, you hit one out of the park, and the LL update will be welcome, but, for now, I'm sticking with JB4.3, until the LL update proves to be as stable as JB4.3
You've been posting the same exact crap in all possible threads regarding the lollipop update for the HAM2. While everyone else has been pressuring Huawei to release this update, as is deserved and expected from such a major company,you just go on and on about how happy you are with the current build, and don't care about any future support. truly unbelievable , we are all excited discussing a future update here, you should really go and post in the Happy owners HAM2 Jellybean thread !!

Correct, there are quite a few bugs I'm experiencing. Wi-fi not connecting except after 3-4 tries, a few random app crashes and a few but annoying random reboots. Even if it wasn't for these problems, who wouldn't want the latest and greatest Android version on their phones? It's common sense !

I put this list of bugs in an earlier thread (I apologize for repeating):
- Audio cutting out is a pretty common one. This occurred when I first got the phone, then again after a factory reset. Eventually it just stopped happening both times.
- Google Calendar reminder pops up, calendar crashes over and over again until I dismiss the reminder.
- Reboots randomly about once a week.
- Switching from portrait to landscape is slow and inconsistent at best.
- That looping reboot that occurred during a random Amazon update a few months back (that did not affect any other phone). I had to do a factory reset because of that which is a major pain.
- The bugs with Emo (strange text wrapping, delay when closing an app that's in a folder, improperly sized widgets), which is such a hot mess of an Android skin, makes it practically mandatory that you put a new launcher on it.
-Pulling down the notification bar has become an adventure. Sometimes it's fine, other times it comes down and stops halfway and I have to hit the home button an try again.
- Unless it's super bright out, really long shutter lag after the update.
I know the thread was started by a Huawei rep, so hopefully they're working on fixing these bugs along with the update.
Just curious, has anyone having bug issues installed TWRP recovery? I have my HAM2 for 3 months, I am rooted but stock recovery, and I haven't had a single issue with this phone. No lagging, no reboots, no wifi or bluetooth issues. I am wondering if there is something else causing the bugs. Or maybe there are a few bad devices. That being said, I always welcome updates, but I also understand peoples concerns with a new update.

Having the issues I have mentioned above, I am completely stock, never rooted or installed recovery. So phone is untouched. I didn't want to mess with it because I thought it may cause issues receiving future OTA updates

Yeah, the Amazon app problem was really a pain. I ended up uninstalling the app entirely, being fed up with the reboots it was causing. The only thing I have never tried with the phone is a factory reset, wonder if that may help in any way
This update downloaded tonight:
Android 7.0
Software version H87210h
May 15, 2017
Google's monthly security update
Software stability and bug fixes
No word on what it does.

The update seems too large to me for just "security". 3xxMB is allot.
I got the update and I don't see anything different. Seems exactly the same
Just got off phone with lg and tmobile there is a KNOWN issue and reason why all devices haven't got the update and why it was halted and why oTA or lg bridge dont give u the latest BUG FIXES and SOftware stability ! But they want "me" to spend my $ LOL - the resolution was TBD they don't know when the update will come....TRASH

So you`d rather get a quick and buggy update then a stable one a bit later. I choose the latter one, besides that my phone is running great on 10F tbh and have no issues.

I rather informative communication versus the ambiguous responses received thus far. Not sure why people who allegedly have the update are commenting as if to discredit that there is something gone wrong with others, not to mention I was just on a 40 minute call with both companies and there is a known issue they aren't sure when the update will be "available" even though the website says it's available as of May 15th -
Don't worry. 10h seems to be a little wonky sometimes. Maybe it's just me but the only way to see is with a new update
On 10h myself. No issues. Wonder what bugs they are referring to.

Mine just seems to stutter sometimes. Nothing major at all just not as fluid as when I first got it. Not many apps I try and keep them all closed outside of FB
Connected phone to netbook, fired LG bridge and got it right away, been rocking it since yesterday and everything is good.

Just put it on mine guess we'll see what we get
I got my 6 Pro in December. It had the November update on it. The fingerprint reader was and still is god awful - it's my biggest complaint. Had the 3 XL before and never had a single issue with it. Just did the February update yesterday and now my WiFi and Bluetooth has gone to complete and utter ****. Constant disconnects, constant drop outs. I'm really tired of this "flagship" phone :/
Genuine Question for the Pixel 6 diehards
With all of the problems that the Pixel 6 / 6Pro have encountered in its 6 month existence, how can you still say that this is a great phone?? Set aside the “mY pHoNe iS wOrKiNg FiNe” BS for just a minute, and acknowledge that there are thousands...

Another one-post wonder? Or is it the same one-post wonder making a sock-puppet account?
Rants don't do anything except make you look unhinged. Seriously, we all get it: the phone isn't perfect. I know it feels good to express yourself and moan to the entire world about how the device didn't meet with your expectations, but this is a discussion forum. We discuss things. If you want to rant, there's always Reddit and its r/Pixel subnet.
What about Black Berry OS, Windows ce mobile, and Apple IOS.? What can you do with them?
Samsung, etc needs Android to run.
With that said, Google devices are needed for Android development for all of androids future.
I love to join in a good rant usually.
Well not what you want to hear, but I'm OK with my Pixel 6.
I'm sure you will get a good price if you list yours and buy something else.
Then join the discussion group over there and rant on about how good or bad your new phone is.

Hey,
I brought google pixel on my birthday (29th of november) last year, it been nearly 6 months since i brought it and is working perfectly fine for me. If your facing such issues why dont you resell it at a good price and then purchase a newer one with better features.
not the greatest. coming from a oneplus im really missing some small features that i used a lot with the oneplus. Also, absolutely hating the combined internet qs tile. tard move from google

Better Internet Tiles both here in XDA and in the Play Store will resolve the combined tile issue.
As for your missing small features, what are they?
I bought it last September and it's still sleeping in my drawer. Sometimes calls drop out and the battery drains quickly, so I'm not using it yet. From what I've read here, US consumers are really generous with businesses.
i'm actually pretty much enjoy the phone... coming from a galaxy which gave me many troubles this phone is a breeze
I also don't tend to rant unless something really REALLY upsets me... Some of you may have seen my post as an example on the pixel flasher thread.... HOWEVER...
For all the issues regarding signal drop/wifi dissapearing and the countless other issuea people have been reporting, i can 110% say that i have experienced NONE of them whatsoever.
What i can say is that for some wierd reason over the past week or so, my battery has been draining like nobodys business with absolutely no change to apps on my phone.
I could not work out what the hell was going on. After searching for many battery saving tips, the 3 things i have done are...
uninstalled all google play services updates and cleared data/cache;
uninstalled all carrier services updates and removed from beta program;
And what i believe has been the biggest battery drain recently is..
Gone into developer settings and turned OFF the "keep mobile data always active when on wifi" option
I noticed that overnight there has recently been massive increase in mobile network drain and couldnt understand why, but since doing all of the above, the last 48hrs have seen a massive improvement.
Other than that, i cannot fault the pixel 6 at all

it doesn't though does it?
Better Internet Tiles with a non rooted device will only work once. When i turn the wifi off it breaks the wireless debugging with shizuku and the tile doesnt work anymore.

That is something to bring up to the developer if his app is causing Shizuku to stop working. Otherwise PEBKAC.
