Nexus 5 Or 5X? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can anyone tell me which of the two devices has more custom Roms? Or are they about the same?

Don't even think about the Nexus 5X, which is notorious for its "Bootloop of Death."

Is anyone considering KCAL support for Nexus 9 kernels?

Is it impossible, or does the nexus 9 not have much support?

Why cant we port a rom?

Ive been lurking here for a couple of months now waiting for cyanogen or a AOSP to be ported to the honor 7 but ive noticed that any one that try's it has problems. The honor 7 is my first android phone (I used to have a iPhone) so id really like to try and stay up to date with whats happening on the honor 7 so that i can understand the inner workings of android a little better. So my question is what is the biggest issue with the honor 7? Is it related to the kernel or just getting experienced dev's to port rom's to the honor 7? (Im not saying the people working on the H7 are not experienced im just saying there are not many)

General Question about PwnPhone

So I know it can be used on Nexus 5 phones and Nexus 7 Tablets(Atleast that's from what i've read). So my only question is since I can't seem to find anything on it. Can I turn any android phone/tablet into a PwnPhone/PwnTab or is it only on certain devices? Anytime I search all I get are results for the Nexus 7 Tablets and LG Nexus 5 phones.

Redmi Note 3 vs honor 5x, which is better for you?

I have my own preference but i want to go beyond my preference, so which do you think is better?
Both are great, but I will go with the 5x since it has better custom ROM support

redmi note 3 has better specs but 5x has a good development base and many custom roms
Redmi note 3 is good in Specs. But Honor 5X is durable than Note 3.
In terms of after sales support Honor outcomes Redmi. So I would prefer Honor 5X.
definitely Honor 5X. good after sales support, better custom ROMs and an evolving community with regular updates and support.

Yes, I wouldn't buy a phone if it doesn't have community support, no matter how good it is
Also Honor 5X outwits Redmi note 3 in terms of camera quality and Dual SIM compatibility.
So Honor 5X is good.
i feel that honor 5x's build quality is a bit more premium,
redmi note 3 has a better development and custom rom support thnan honor 5x, (even got cm14)
so its based on your priority.. if you want better custom rom, deffinitely go for redmi note 3

Development is the area where Honor lags behind other brands.
I respect Honor-5x, its premium build quality. Now we have got so many roms for the device. A dedicated forum for Honor-5x in XDA and on CLUB.HIHONOR.COM is itself an achievement.
But for Note-3, Performance of Stock Rom MIUI as compared to Stock EMUI is uncomparable. Redmi Note-3 is a beast. Note-3 has a dedicated forum on MIUI site and as well as on XDA. So Support of Note-3 is undoubtedly good. Moreover Nougat series Custom Roms for Note-3 are out.
everything is good with honor 5x , except the development is COMPARITIVELY LESS, which is not a problem though
but with honor , we are guarenteed for the os updates, where mi makes no such promisses, though mi provides weekly updates,they are just security patches and bug fixes, even though they provide an os update, it will be very late..

I think the order of Nougat will be Honor 8, then 7 and then 5X. 5C after that.
Development is just a matter of time and the number of developers. Redmi Note 3 has more developers that's why they are ahead.
Sent from my honor 5X using XDA Labs

Any AOSP-based custom ROMs for the Mi Pad 4 yet?

I went on the Mi Pad 4 XDA page expecting to see a few AOSP ROMs already available (LOS, RR, AICP, etc.), but to my disappointment there is currently none.
I guess this tablet in still in its infant age.
Hopefully more people will buy the Mi Pad 4 soon so that more people can port some nice AOSP ROMs for the Mi Pad 4! Not that MIUI is bad, but I definitely like AOSP more
I'm a flashaholic anyways so maybe the problem is just me lol
There are already plenty of treble GSI images
I flashed treble img of pixel experience, but with account authentication, it is played from google. Is there a workaround?
