OPPO just revealed a new device, the R819, on their social networking channels.
http://en.oppo.com/press/press-releases/oppo-r819-convenience-without-compromise/
The R819 boasts a 4.7” IPS screen with OGS technology for amazing viewing angles and ample space for content.
Using this smartphone is simpler than ever before. Gestures let you control waking, answering and silencing your device with the slightest movements.
And the 2000 mAh battery supports a long-lasting charge to get more out of your phone. R819 also has dual SIM card support so you can use two numbers at once and get more use out of just one device.
The R819 is outfitted with an f/2.0 aperture 8 megapixel Sony Exmor BSI back facing camera for great shots in low light conditions.

Yep a mid-range device not a flagship sequel. It's been available in China as the R819T so no surprises really. That said not changing the name is a poor decision as its hardly memorable.
Dual SIM is nice as is stock Android option and I suppose it's a bit thinner. Personally I'd be happy with a bit more depth if it meant a bigger battery. Aside from that it's pretty average fare. Not sure how having both cameras doing 1080p video when the storage is an unexpandable 16gb. Hope buyers have a good internet speed and limit to get them to the cloud. Or like very regular backups to another storage space.
Personally was hoping for a successor to the F5 which then could be dropped in price a little to attract more buyers. Then again not everyone wants a 5 inch 1080 display.

XDA TV video today will be the unboxing of it. I compare it to an S2, when I used it a few weeks back it was decent. Something that's great for mom and dad.
My folks are still bamboozled by a Nokia 3210!

I think you are mixing phone language and input language.
These are the phone languages (menus, apps, etc.)

Oups !
You are right, I'm mixing the both.
Sorry and tanks for your help.
I receive mine yesterday (well it is for my wife but whatever).
I am pretty disappointed by the Color Rom, it seems to be pretty buggy.
Example :
- No french language ...
- I install Swiftkey yesterday, worked fine, doesn't work anymore after a reboot ... (cannot choose swiftkey in input method)
- Widgets of new apps do not appear in the widget list (google calendar, weather widget, ...)
Last thing is the official vanilla android rom is nowhere to be seen ...Ok the device is just out, I guess we have to wait.
On the other hand, build quality is very good and the device great.

Pour le français il faut que tu installe la version AOSP. Vas jeter un coup d’œil sur le forum oppo.
3w oppoforums.com/threads/easy-r819-aosp-version-is-here.5865/
En plus elle est moins buggé, j'ai pu configurer mon compte exchange alors qu'avec la color rom c'était impossible.

Just to let you know, the pre-installed rom is NOT Color Rom, it is just basic Oppo rom. Color Rom is coming in November.

Thanks for the info.
At least I can now flash the early AOSP and come back to this ROM if I have any problems.
Can you give us some feedback about the GPS performance... Mediatek phones have gained the reputation of having an useless GPS receiver.
That's the main reason that is preventing me from buying an cheap Chinese dual-sim android.

I have ordered one for my dad.
Phone looks great, let's hope it's as strong as the company says. Had a UMi Zero for quite a while which I loved.
At Chinese-smartphones.com they selected it as the 'best value for money' phone of April. What do you guys think? True or not?

Well that's convincing. The phone can handle something but he was able to break it whitout trying real hard still, a lot harder to break than an iphone or a Samsung
Great device, How about battery life and screen on time?
Any coupon for this UMI hammer? i saw 1949deal provides $3 coupon, coupon code: 1949deal0808. $126.99 is the cheapest price. I saw the drop test review on Giz, Really unbelievable, it has been dropped for more than three times. It still work, no smashing on the screen. UMI Hammer is so strong and tough.

Custom Recovery
Hi All,
Here is my ported TWRP Play Edition plus the STOCK recovery as you may need it for UMi OTA's.
Download Here
Flash with UMI's Rootjoy, Flashify from the Play Store, or Fastboot if you know how to use it
More Recovery's to follow when I get the Time
Enjoy.
Switch sdcard
About recovery, is a great work! Easy install and nice looking.
About sdcard like primary memory, the problem is that the external sdcard become sdcard2 and at the sdcard is the internal memory.
Any one know how to switch sdcrd2 to become sdcard?
I remember in the zopo 500+ was available a package to flash from the recory.

I assume you are referring to the ROM and not the recovery
To set external SD as Primary or "Default Write Disk" go to /Settings/storage/ and choose phone storage = internal_SD or SD card = External_SD
Just incase you are talking about the recovery
Go to /Backup/ tap on "Storage" and choose Micro-SD

Thanks for your great reviews, they help us to decide which smartphone is worth buying.
Please can you answer these two questions about this phone:
what can you say about the screen? it's comparable to 1080p screens of other brands?
And how is the battery life? I saw an article in the ulefone website about the battery life, do you think it's real?
thank you very much.

The screen is good, I don't see any noticeable difference from a 1080p on other China phones.
Regarding battery life I can't say so much yet. It always also depends on what you use (BT, GPS etc), and how much you use the phone during the day.

I hope so. He has done the test after applying latest Ota. I have a question for you. You have posted some sample photos on another forum. On those pictures, edges are soft. I have downloaded one to check the exif data. The lens is F/2.8. But as far as I know, in the official spec it was F/2.2. Can you comment on this?

I guess the official specs are wrong then, or the info the camera gives is wrong. All the pictures with my Be Touch are with f/2.8 even after latest OTA.
You can compare with your Jiayu s3 camera data. I am a bit disappointed now.

Hi @s7yler, I was wondering if you could check two things for me, I bought the Be Touch and while I wait for it, want to know as much as I can about it .
So,
Could you please check if there is an option to show the battery percentage on the status bar?
I saw on your video that on Settings there is an option to turn the device ON and OFF automatically, but I was wondering if you could please check that in the Sound setting are the standard Lollipop Interruptions control and if those are working correctly?
Thanks in advance

No you can not show the battery percentage on the status bar (only when you slide down the notification bar, it will show the percentage for the battery also). And yes in the Sound setting there are the standard Lollipop Interruptions controls available.

Wow...HOMTOM look like they have lifted their game... This looks like a really decent phone....I wonder what price tag they put on it. But it certainly does stack up in terms of specs. I would love to be able to have a test run of it. If anyone knows how much please let me know.

Hi,
was wondering have you got the phone?
I have the phone, the camera is not that great. Decent sensor but too much smoothing. Hopefully can be fixed with a software update.
I have it for over 2 weeks now but not really tested it till now. My phone reboots nearly 10 times every day, thats sad. But there is new software from 2016-09-14 I have not tested yet. First I wanna backup the complete FW but do not find the right files like twrp or something else. MTK Droid Tool can not root the phone too.
Sad to hear all that.
Hope software can render better pictures and solve reboots.
Sent from my A0001 using Tapatalk
Yesterday I made a Download with SP Flash Tool (no Upgrade) and got the new Firmware and a Factory Reset -.-
But the reboot problem still exists
My main complaints with the HomTom HT10
HARDWARE ISSUES
compass isn't available
NFC isn't available (it was advertised but removed!)
OTG isn't available (it was advertised but removed!)
network reception is bad (3G/4G)
Wi-Fi reception is bad (3G/4G)
not detecting/connecting 5Ghz Wi-Fi networks
audio speaker quality (distortion and not enough bass)
battery losing energy way too quickly
camera quality is bad on low light situation
SOFTWARE ISSUES
- battery saving mode is too aggressive (cannot easily modified for a bunch of Apps)
languages preferences are lost if IDLE or turned off (if you set french language it will comeback later to Netherlands. it could be because Belgium country has multiple official languages (french/nederlands/dutch) or if because the smartphone was shipped from .nl post)
- defaults apps choice in settings is too limited
- If you choose to protect your device with a password (PIN/password/pattern) for intrusion your device is going to freeze and you will have to reboot !
- hardware navigation buttons cannot be modified / edited
- HomTom OS is much less complete than MIUI8 (or even UMI OS)
MAJOR MISC PROBLEM:
There is no official forum to post bugs reports !
There is no updates or fixes for those issues announced.

homtom ht10 scratch
Hello, objection to this cell phone ht10, i know i will not use but i have to write, which is not that it is karst but is rubbish, its gsm connection is not it, even in indoors, means in the room, no signal loses signal if it is covered i lost a total signal, i have a private rental company and because of that karst i lost 20 guests, i did not realize i did not get a signal, android softwer 6.0 is the same karst i can not make a shortcut, i can not call because we the first instructions are inserted and after a couple of typing the connection is terminated or they can only receive the call! all in all the karst scratch of the cell phone!
Yes and I still forgot the camera in the dark room or the object was not flashing the picture was black, wifi bad as it should be rolling, there is more but the lesson is that the device is rubbish, garbage, waste, fuj from the device !!!!!

The Chinese manufacturer made its name famous with its very first phone and now the upgraded successor arrived, which again offers good value.
Introduction, Specs
It would be an exaggeration to say that Vernee is a manufacturer with a history. In the one-and-a-half year since their start, they put 6 models on the market. The first was the predecessor of our test subject, the Thor. We also introduced the Apollo X of the three-membered Apollo series, and the Mars is also a well-made device.
In the Mod edit sales link removed, which was presented during this year’s MWC in Barcelona, many of the flaws of its predecessor were corrected. The fingerprint-scanner operates with an amazing accuracy and the notification LED is not left out this time. There were no hardware changes made, however, battery time was significantly improved. A
high-capacity battery was squeezed in, and the operating software is the brand new Nougat system.
The facelifted deity arrived in a less elegant white box. It looked better in black, but of course the main interest is not box, but what is inside of it.
After opening the package, we can immediately see the phone wrapped in a paper bag. Below it are the accessories: we receive a 2 ampere charger, which is capable of fast-recharging, a SIM needle, a USB 2.0 cord, and some reading materiel. The protective foil is already applied to the display.
Appearance, Display
There is nothing revolutionary appearance-wise; it is more angular than its predecessor, so it looks manlier maybe. With its 144 x 70,1 x 8,2 millimetre size, it is not impossible to use it with only one hand. The device weighs 149 grams theoretically, which I found too light, so I measured it, and turns out that its weigh is actually 165 grams. Such is life: according to fashion magazines the majority of women lie about their weigh, which is understandable; but in the case of a mobile phone, is it needed? Quality of the materials and the manufacturing is perfectly alright.
No changes were done to the display either; it is the same 5 inch, 1280×20 resolution In-Cell IPS display with 294 ppi pixel-density as in its predecessor. As before, this can be adjusted with MiraVision. Viewing arches are alright too, colours don’t become inverted, and there can be no complaints filed against the maximum brightness either, so by and large the quality of the display is convincing. There is no information about the protection of this 2.5D display.
Above the display, the colourful notification LED can be found, along with the brightness and distance sensor, the speech-speaker and the front camera. Below in the middle, there is the Home button (without backlight) and the two dots with the ’menu’ and ’back’ functions. We can use of course the virtual-keyboard, but this takes place from the display.

They said the phone would include a "e-compass" sensor... True or false?

Read the full test:
,,Compass, gravity sensor, NFC and infra are not included."
Well, I've read several tests now and all say compass is included!

Hello.
I have installed "Digital Compass_v4.1.3.apk" (Digital Compass from the Store).
This apk works well onto the 2017-05-24 firmware.
Unfortunately, after the last full OTA update (2017-06-15) it does not work anymore.

Sorry to hear that. Just another phone, that I wouldn't buy. Sadly there are less and less budget phones with a compass. ?

Good rom?
Is there any good rom for this phone? I find the original VOS pretty buggy and I can't live without network speed. Kind regrets for changing my oneplus one.
Thanks guys !
Alternativ os
I use the Amigo 4.0 OS. Which is quick stable and fully working. It was ported from Gionee s6s. Works better than the original software. Thanks to the people Who did the porting.

Sorry but not allowed for me now to give external links. I am too new on XDA. You will find it yourself when you ask Google for Vernee Thor E Amigo 4.0 4pda.ru . Sorry that are the restrictions from XDA not mine. Or alternatively send a PM to [email protected]
Flash with TWRP. Install Open Camera from Playstore made the camera app from the Amigo OS work. Flash Dolby ATMOS from XDA gives some additional features.
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Will the compass work again with Amigo 4.0?
Compass
I could not see any compass actions in any old rom. The compass sensor seemed to be available in the elder Roms but never worked in any app. Actually the fingerprint doesnt start in Amigo. I ve flashed Amigo over an old THOR E Rom. Should be proven with a newer. But I am so satisfied with the performance of Amigo, that i wouldn t go back.
the figerprint sensor works well on the amigo os? i have read some reports that dotn work well on the amigo... thanks for your help
Fingerprint
No, as I wrote, the fingerprint doesn't work. But I don't need it really much. These days I've made a full backup. And I will try to use the different Thor E ROMs with Amigo Os. Maybe there are some differences. Amigo could be a good base for porting other roms to Thor E. Let's give em a try.
Why this phone has no custom rom like Lineage oreo? no devs? not interesting? not enough sold in the world?
Should we think that we will never have custom rom?

Hi
the ROM amigo is always on 4pda, but when i flash the ROM Amigo 4.0, my Thor E is in bootloop (i wait as it written in the script, but after 30 minutes the bootloop is always ON)...
any ideas ?
A friend sent this link to me and I installed it... It's working, but some functions doesn't, like the HDR+...
https://mega.nz/#!bFdQUILT!aUG4Dr8u8GMTZ_hisIbRn-sAkG2pF9kCQtyIJjjfDQU
When I select a model in BSG settings (no matter what model), the camera crashes after reboot the app but if I let it in blank, the camera works fine.
If anyone find a better configuration, let us know!

The only difference that I noticed was that the Gcam the entire picture is in the same focus and in the stock doesn't. (I just pointed and shoot)

Yeah, it seems like this GCam isn't really 'working'
It's a really old version. 5.x the newer versions are in the 6.2.x I believe.
No nightsight in this one.
And if hdr+ isn't working it's useless to use it above the stock cam
So this thread basically exists because people can't believe Huawei made their app work better than Gcam?
*shrugs* fair enough

Yes! I expressed myself poorly, I believe that Huawei software is very good, but GCam is superior in some issues, such as HDR + and photos of people.
It's all about algorithms.
Google is good in it.
But... I love the night mode on my p30 pro.
Google didn't beat that yet.
So yes, for Google gcam is great.
For some other brands also.
But for the p30 not yet.
And I think it will never be.
Because of the hardware (Kirin processor)
It's too different from Google phones

Well at the moment the best HDR are coming from Samsung's S10 phones.
Gcam underexposses to much
Thinks have improved in latest updated 164
IMHO in default mode at least the HDR is waaaaay too aggressive. Google is making it look more natural, and it works its magic with normal photos too, while with regular photos (without night mode) on the P30 Pro it appears like the camera is taking just one photo. There's more denoising going on in the background (water color look) than on my old LG V20 using GCam, and that's despite a smaller, older sensor and a slower lens too. The LG V20 photo is sharper, more detailed, has no water color effect and just looks much more realistic. Obviously Huawei has the tech, when you look at night mode. It just needs to gather the needed photos faster in good light conditions.
If you can live with pure jpeg's from the Google Camera on Huawei's P20 Pro and P30 Pro then it's great, i actually have two Google Camera ports installed on both my P20 Pro and P30 Pro for just quick jpeg snapshots. They produce some lovely looking jpeg files which have almost no sharpening applied and very little to none noise reduction. But when it comes to RAW files, then the standard Huawei camera app is hard to beat so far. It does a great job and if you can handle the files it outputs you will get stunning results.
One does not rule out the other if i say so, use both for maximum camera performance.

I installed a new'ish Google Camera port on my older P20 Pro yesterday and tested it, this is a 100% crop without any post processing applied. Pretty clean and detailed jpeg shot and i like the little amount of noise left in the photo. Click to view the full image.

I see to much noise in that image and loss of detail.
Then you haven't seen how a similar shot with the standard camera application on the P30 Pro looks like, it lacks a lot more detail than this one because of the heavy noise reduction which makes it look like a water colour painting. The noise is not really a issue in this photo, it simply adds fine detail to the shot when you look at it as a whole.

No I haven't seen a similar shot because you didn't provide one. I take a lot of photos with my P30 Pro and apart from minor colour issues I have never had a problem.
