Hi guys
I want buy this device.
Is there a better choice at this price?
I want buy kenzo model. 16 Gb and 2 Ram
How can i understand that is kenzo?
Sorry for my bad english
Yeah it's still a very good choice, especially if you are into budget phones.
I would go with the Kate model however as it has LTE band 20 support, that helps a lot when traveling through (or living in) Europe (which I do).

Note that if you have goodix fp scanner, you may have problems with custom roms, but I believe someone already made a patch to make it work.

Development support is identical on both kenzo and kate models as they have identical hardware.
The only difference is the modem firmware, and given that none of the custom roms come bundled with a firmware package (that could potentially override your own firmware), that means that all roms that work on kenzo, will work equally well on kate.
Long story short, no development support difference between kenzo and kate. :good:

Not really, the only difference between Kate & Kenzo is the firmware for the modems. Kenzo has a better selection of cases and such but Kate has more bands that it supports. Kate is 2mm taller than Kenzo.

My Kate has the FPC102 one, works flawlessly.
If you're buying the phone, I would recommend going to the 3GB RAM version.
Honest suggestion:
I would recommend Redmi Note 4 (SD version). It'll gain the same (maybe little less/more) popularity like Note 3. It'll also have official Nougat update. So, there'll be bugless Nougat custom ROMs. While, Nougat will not get released for Note 3 and there are chances that we'll be stuck with these camera/flashlight bugs for months. So, i would suggest, Redmi Note 4. Yes, it has SD625, which is inferior to SD650. But if you're not a gaming guy, it's fine to go for Note 4, which has also better battery life compared to Note 3, because of the chip being made on 14nm architecture.
If you're not in India, I would suggest to wait for Note 4 to popup on international selling sites.

Then do it already. RN3 won't get official Nougat update. Period.
Redmi series only get one OS update. We got it months ago as Marshmallow. No more updates now, even if it was best selling phone of India.

So I'm planning on buying the Redmi Note 3 with 3gb of ram and the snapdragon processor. My question is, is there any good roms for this device? I hace checked the threads here and most people seem to have quite many problems with the few roms that exists.
There are some good ROMs like CM13 or RR, using RR since a few days and I have no problems.

yeh , it’s very stable in latest version and used it as daily driver
BTW
What op is asking for is pure nexus ROM and not nx ROM
Pure nexus is different from nx ROM and IMO better than the latter one.
So any dev out here, can get pure nexus ROM for our op2,
would be awesome

Nx rom was always one of my favorite roms on my Moto g3. I love nx rom. I have absolutely no intention to do a bad advertisement against it. And I was not the only one with booting issue. The problem might be on my side but I hope to come back to it soon.

Send me a device and I'll do it :silly:... I will not attempt a task this experimental without a physical device in my hands to test with.
So I've been trying a number of Nougat Roms lately and have found curiously that all of (atleast the one based on strix cm base) have insane volume output (like 50% more at least from stock) through speakers. I was wondering if the devs did this knowingly or is it some software amplification hack which will eventually damage the speakers

This is how it used to be!! Atleast on MIUI ROMs. This is one of my favourite things of CM14, I no longer have to press my ear toward the speaker.
The reason for this is I think because TheStrix added back the MIUI LP edits to the kernel, so it's similar to MIUI kernel now. He mentioned this in the CM13 thread.
So yep, I'm pretty sure it's normal, and hey, enjoy it!!

TheStrix said:
I have already moved on to cm-14.0 dev. You can follow it on CM gerrit: here
Also I have rebased kernel to N CAF tag and added back Xiaomi edits from LP release. (Camera, battery drivers are 100% from Xiaomi kernel release with no edits regarding adding/removing any new support)
Keep calm and wait for it
Also, wanted to know ov16880_f16v01a and ov16880_omida05 camera sensors are present on some devices too? Anyone with them here?
On CM, I just now added s5k5e8_z5e8yab thought it was the only one missing. If those two exist too on fewer RN3, let me know so that I can add support for those 2 sensors in CM.

Yes,fp working on custom ROMs.
So many custom ROMs are there but less no of developers are there.
Honor said they will provide update for next 2 year but...there are better options in 12000 in India. Redmi note3 has awesome development. Resell value is good.

If you are looking at a phone with good custom ROM support in future, turn to Xiaomi, becuase they use Qualcomm SoC mostly.
Huawei is and plans to use more and more Kirin SoC on its phones, which reduces the phone cost, but give developers less options...

My suggestion for you is to go for MI, if you need custom ROM development support.
If you are fond of Honor, then you can wait and get Honor 6X with Kirin Processor, Dual Camera which is expected to release in India by January.

OK I am going to revise my review, after using this phone for the day now its finally working I can actually test it with cyanogenmod.
The phone stock software is crap, dump it asap and flash cyanogenmod straight away,
The screen is very good and compared to my iphone 6 plus there isnt a lot in it, the 6plus has slightly better clarity on stuff like peoples hair but the pixel density is better but for a budget phone its very good.
I get excellent reports on my call quality, everyone says it sounds very clear,
the battery life isnt bad, I wish it had a removable battery but I am sure it will last a day,
The charging time is pretty quick but not with the stock charger, its only 1 amp with is paltry get a better charger if you want the phone to charge fast,
The screen on button is in a awkward place but I expect I will get used to it,
The Roms on this forum are very good generally and are a huge improvement on the crap Huawei ship it with,
The speaker is nice and loud and I hear all my notifications no problem.
The build quality is pretty good for a cheap phone, better than Samsungs plastic crap

I have seen 5x from days when huawei never gave christopher proper sources for 12.1. what i say is with wisdom.. sellling means selling this in half and then pouring more money...which is not i can do now. I will sell this baby when i have money...
I'm about to get myself a RN4 but I'm kinda confused to which version to buy. My concern is which version currently has more dev support (as of searching I assume the chinese version has the upper hand but I just wanna make it clear).
Or can I just flash the Global ROM whenever I feel like switching? I really want to get this phone considering the budget I have.

There's only one version, well 2 if you count the 2GB/16GB or 3GB/64GB versions, but all roms work for both. You can install global or China roms, both have beta versions as well and there is an EU rom also.

Just be sure that it's the official global ROM and not a sneaky vendor/reseller ROM pretending to be a global stable ROM.
If you're not sure, Google the MIUI version from 'about phone' under settings, you will see results of other users querying the same thing. Or if you're still unsure just post here.
