HTC 10 Panel Thread

As we know that HTC 10 has two possible panel manufacturers: Tianma and Sharp.
Install this app from Google Play to see which panel your HTC 10 has WITHOUT root.

As for now, it seems most 32GB version is Tianma and 64GB version is Sharp.

Bought a a oneplus 3 gunmetal, isn't this color only for the 3T?

Hi guys, just got a used Oneplus 3 from eBay, from a phones refurb company and the were selling as the regular OP3, but I thought I was going to get the 3T, thinking they did not know what they had in hand the color is gunmetal, I compared with a friends OP3 and mine is gunmetal for sure, much darker then the OP3. Now looking at the specs on AIDA64, they do match the OP3, SD 820, 16Mpx on the back and 8Mpx on the front, so now I have 3 questions, number 1, is there a gunmetal version of the OP3? number 2, if they flashed the OP3 through the unbrick guide (here) whill the app AIDA64 read the hardware specs from the drivers on this ROM? meaning that it would think it is the OP3 specs, but it could possibly be the OP3t? And number 3, what would happen if I follow the the OP3T unbrick guide (here) on this device, which I have no Idea what it is xD
Thanks for your time guys and sorry for this messy questions, but really not sure which model I have right now =P

UPDATE: Tried to flash the OP3T unbrick ROM and guess I do have the OP3 just with the Gunmetal color... Was there a gunmetal OP3? Or did the seeler changed it?

OP3 with gunmetal does not exist, so I'd guess they simply put OP3 hardware into a 3T body. Probably had a bunch of damaged phones and combined useful stuff.

My thoughts exactly, ok, now I have the S7 Edge (Exynos) and the OP3, comparing both right now, but I'll probably sell the OP3, the S7 Edge feels a lot better in hand IMO, far supperior screen and camera is much better, the only thing OP3 has that I really like is the software, but my S7 Edge has a custom ROM based on Stock, installed the Pixel Launcher and now it feels just like a Pixel now

Yeah, if you put a custom ROM (i.e. Get rid of TouchWiz) on S7 it's definitely a better device. I love my OP3, but if money wasn't an issue I'd probably go for S7 (Plus).

Anyone as came from the Oneplus 5 to Honor 8 Pro?

Anyone as come from the Oneplus 5 to Honor 8 Pro?
After having returned my OP5 i'm seriously considering H8Pro
Is it a good alternative performance wise? Better? Worst?
As an Amoled lover ... will I be disappointed with the LCD H9Pro screen as to it's deep blacks and vibrant colors?
Will the 2K display compensate for not being Amoled like the one in OP5?
Thanks :good:

I've used both the devices. I'm using the Honor 8 pro at this moment. Both the phones are very snappy but 1+5 surely has an edge plus Indian variant of Honor 8 pro gets warm at the back side with light usage too which is no the case with OnePlus 5 with the same exact usage! Display? I'll prefer the one on Honor 8 pro for the 2k res & it's very good looking too (it's very marginal difference, nothing noticeable)

Sadly it is having emmc! Is it safe to assume that all Indian Honor 8 Pros are having EMMC as the price is far cheaper than the Global variant! Plus 6+128 model available!

Yup that seems true but then why are they supplying ufs 2.1 versions to reviewers.
Outright cheating.

My opinon- Reviewers received the Global variant (maybe, just maybe) which had UFS! But yes that's not fair as I see many people asking about the same and they are also worried about the heating issue (not uncomfortable though) as they bought the device by watching those "early reviews"

A little but my major problem was that I could not connect to my home router
Only managed to connect to my Devolo 1200+ and not all the times.
Many people have other Wi-Fi problems like drops and speed.
Really bad the Wi-Fi quality on OP5.

All the reviewers have ufs variant and that's why they are getting better performance on their units. All others have emmc and thus, degraded performance.

No european buyers here yet that can confirm it europe is receiving emmc or ufs?

Had the Honor 8Pro before the OP5 and OP5 is way better. '(Germany - Got the Honor from Netherlands)
Storage was EMMC - Which really enerved me + at that point in time (1 month after release) no root in sight little XDA coverage etc-
Sent it back within the 14 day period.
Both are nice phones but the op5 is IMHO better.
Joerg

If it would be about the phone only, I'd go with Honor 8 pro but, given the fact I value the development strength when ever I get the chance to get a phone, I'll go with OP5 (if I can buy it :silly: )

The pro uses a different screen and manufacturer. Believe the X is made by samsung. Mine looks beautiful tbh. Mine is a china phone.
Touch screen on mine is a gtx8-p111780900-samsung-0x301c2-bin_normal-32

Thank you for your reply:good:

AFAIK the X screens and screen assemblies are made by Samsung.
The problematic screen assemblies on the Pro are made by LG. The BOE (Chinese company) screens are unaffected.

Does the 20 X have a dark mode like the 20 Pro?

Yes, it does have a dark mode.

Mate 20X 5G EVR-N29 & EVR-AN00 EMUI 10/Android 10 Release & Experience Questions

Mate 20X 5G EVR-N29 & EVR-AN00 EMUI 10/Android 10 Release & Experience Questions
Hi! I am in the process of getting my new Mate 20x 5G EVR-N29 despite its disadvantages over the 4G version and would like to know if the EMUI 10/Android 10 Update is released or releasing anytime soon.
Also, please share your experience and bugs as well as there does not seem to be any dedicated threads for this device.
Not sure why but hope this will change as I think there should be dedicated sub-forums for this model to help users with device specific guidance, customisations and news.
In particular, I would like to know if display density reset issue remains or whether call recording can be enabled by default on EVR-N29.. Comments on Battery Life, Loudness of Speakers, M-Pen use and 5G performance also welcome.

may i ask why u went for the 5G version? summary of disadvantages:
- smaller battery
- no stereo speakers (earphone is now used as second speaker, thus unequal loudness)
- no 3.5 mm headphone jack
- higher battery consumption at 5G / basically non-existant coverage as of yet
- significantly higher price tag
- sound not as loud / good as the 4G version (headphones)

Have you spent any time browsing the Huawei forums on XDA, in particularly this one for the Mate 20x? They are basically dead "Mate", no pun intended.

Great question! Very accurate list of disadvantages. Thanks. I was one of the first to post about the disadvantages of this model in this forum when the details of its features were first leaked, subsequently officially announced. I was and still very upset with Huawei for what they did to Mate 20 X.
I am getting a very special discount on the price of the 5G model which I could not refuse so I am buying it. I love large phones and currently still using my Zenfone 3 Ultra and very happy with it despite the lack of NFC and 5G but want my next phone to be 5G ready and larger than my current phone as a future investment and to protect its resale value. Until proper folding devices become widespread, I think I could manage with the 5G Mate 20X. Besides, it also has large memory (compared to the European non-5g model EVR-L29) and Google Play Store and GMS is pre-installed so not need to sideload like on the non-5G 256Gb version (China Version).
I will share my experience with it when my phone arrives next week and really hope I could upgrade to Android 10 as hopefully the display density reset issue will be solved so I could make better use of the screen space.

@AWFRONT I am in same boat as you, waiting to get it next week!
same reasons to buy it, I had 20x 4g china almost year...

Phone is very close to 4g, however i like the below advantages.:
5G network is becoming common in Dubai so it is great to have 5G phone
Ram is bigger 8gb
Performance is slightly higher
Storage is 256gb
Didn't realize any difference in battery performance compared to 4G
SPLASH, WATER, AND DUST RESISTANT
SuperCharge (Max 40 W)
Yes you can install call recording in global phone
The only thing i can highlight is:
Sound is not as 4g
We didn't receive EMUI 10 yet even beta
---------- Post added at 10:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:42 AM ----------
But if you want a very nice 5G phone i would recommend mate 30 pro 5G uf a big screen is not important to you .
I had a mistake that i bought mate 30 pro 4G recently and i have mate 20 x 5G.

how can performance be higher if hardware is exactly the same in terms of SoC?
8/256 also in chinese 4G
battery performance should be significantly different at 84% battery capacity plus 5G eats more battery than 4G, especially with a separate 5G modem, so more hardware to power.
both 4G and 5G models are rated at IP53, no difference there.
supercharge at 40W is indeed different / higher than 4G and of course its nice to have global version
not criticizing here folks, just keeping the facts straight!
Sent from my Xiaomi Mi Max 2 (Oxygen) using Tapatalk

Yes, like this. Good is 8gb on global sw and faster charging. Bad is smaller battery and worse sound.
Other same.
I hope it will serve me one day whole on 4g, until 5g come to Serbia. Then I will see..

I got it yesterday, played just a little for now.
Of course, all is same.
I noticed that screen is maybe little better calibrated (easily can be just production variations). Less green tint and a fraction stronger saturation on normal mode. Goes a little to red, not perfect...
No option for flicker reduce (as I remember on al00 it was introduced in 9.1 emui?).
Today I will set it usually for me, battery analysis in few days.
Charge is incredible : went from 40 to 95 percent in 10 or 15 minutes!

You know that super charging and fast charging reduces battery longetivity. I personally 5W charge my device and try and use the 80-40% charge regimen.

This is another short coming of EMUI, there is no place in software to turn off " fast charging", unlike Samsung which you can. My current charger , charges at approx 23% per hour / 1023mA. , Device temp doesn't even exceed 24C while charging. Sometimes , I do use a Samsung charger which charges at approx 1800mA.

I installed the Huawei Recording app and it works perfectly on the EVR-N29. Tested and the quality is excellent.
