VR for P8 Lite - P8lite Accessories

Hello. I really want to try VR, and i wanna know if i can connect an Vr to an P8 lite . And where i can buy one?

First of all there is no VR Glasses like Oculus or Vive that you can run with an android phone like the P8 Lite. But theres a solution by google called Cardboard which is a container for your phone that you can strap around your head.
I can recommend you this one if you want a cheap solution:

And this one is a little more stirdy:
https://www.amazon.de/Pasonomi®-Car...UTF8&qid=1468172240&sr=1-3&keywords=cardboard
There is a lot more on the internet. Just do a quick google search. You can also buy them from almost any site not just amazon.

personal opinion!

Hi, If you want just to try a VR I refer you Cardboard VR. It will cost you around 2.5 - 3$, if you buy it from Ebay. However, its not that much comfortable!
I refer ebay to buy vr online because of wide range of varity and awesome rates, just surf it out!
Ebay link from where i bought mine!
http://www.ebay.com/itm/DIY-Cardboa...384312?hash=item51df0ae5b8:g:nAoAAOSwpRRWn28T
it doesn't include head strips to hold vr you have to buy it separatly,

Bad idea to buy a VR since what I know about the P8lite (own one aswell) it doesn't have a gyroscope hence you won't have the same experience as with a phone which has one.

It has a gyroscope but you will have to enable it manually.

It's just a virtual gyroscope, which doesn't work really well. That's why they disabled it.

So I have to flash something to my phone. Id there another way because I haven't unlocked my bootloader. ?

No, you can only do it by flashing, and you need to unlock the bootloader.

I bought google cardboard for this phone, tested it and it's terrible... Up/down movement is okey, but left/right is a disaster... Shaking left/right even if I stay in place

You can, however, watch VR movies or stuff like that. There is a VR player in the playstore and you can select the option to use accelerometer+compass instead of the gyroscope.
(This requires no root access btw)

Or you use the gyroscope update zip or flash a custom ROM. There actually is a gyroscopes​ but it's disable because it's bad.

what gyroscope update fix ?

All kirin 620 powered devices don't have gyroscope. It's "emulated" gyroscope, not so good by it works.

Hey guys, even if the controlling movement terrible, is the quality (display) fine? Can I watch it at least at 720p or it is extremely blurred / pixelated?

Thank you, sir.

And if I dont want the 360° VR experience but just the VR "virtual screen" sorry idk how to call it, i mean the fixed view of the smartphone screen, to browse, write or work on the smartphone. Is that possible? The resolution should be more than enought no?

I dropped the phone once without the case (Spigen), it bounced back with no damage. I wouldn't recommend using it without a case.

Updates suck. Don't even know if we'll get Lollipop. Some people claim "leaked" documents suggest that we do. Wouldn't hold my breath.

Yep, true. N3N is not a popular phone, ergo, not many accessories.

It works but there is no built in IR remote app. At least not in mine. LG phones have a capable IR remote app, which covers loads of devices (TVs, DVD Players even beamers). There are some apps in Play Store though.

If you compare what you get from a Sony device, Custom ROM support is non-existing. There are 3-4 ROMs, all have issues. Some people use it as a daily driver but I consider them "alpha-level" maturity.

Very good in bright conditions. Rubbish in dark/semi-dark environments. Also, don't even think about shooting a video if the subject isn't VERY WELL lit.

Yep, it does everything.
On another plus, the battery runs for 3 days with light-moderate usage. The screen is quite pleasant. Speaker output is nice. Very good WiFi rececption (my wife's iPhone loses connection where I still have 2 bars). Overall, it is a good, cheap phone if you don't care about updates and camera performance.

We answered all of your questions, didn't we? The rest is up to you. Personally, I'd compare the screen qualities side-by-side with the Sony device. For me, AMOLED was a deciding factor, despite the fact that it is "just" a 720p display. I personally like looking at it

Hi there. I've been using the phone for about a month. (1.5GB 13mp version)
You can ask me anything about it. So far everything runs really smooth and I'm quite pleased with the camera (and quite dissappointed with the stock camera app).
What do you need to know?

Open Camera (you can find it here on XDA) and the full version of Camera FV-5. Both work well but sometimes you have to take a few shots to adjust the exposure correctly.
Thanks, will look into them, phone should arrive this week.

Is it possible to root it? What about battery endurance? You have Mediatek version? Thanks.
Hello iPp350z,
Do you test the GPS? Because i'm between K10 (K420N)and LG Zero (H650E). And on test here: http://www.notebookcheck.net/
LG H650E have little more accurate GPS.
But K10 look better
Thank you!

I'm using KingRoot and it roots just fine but I have the Snapdragon 410 version. Battery life is about a day and a half for me and I use it quite often.

Sure, no problem, I'll test it. Any specific app that you prefer? From my experience the GPS locks almost instantly and is quite accurate but I haven't done any specific tests.
Yeah, it looks way better than the H650E and it also has a bigger screen while being almost the same size. That was the main reason I bought it. The camera also takes great photos in daylight but night photos are terrible.
Well I have the t-mobile (US) version, and it has ups and downs.
UP:
1) The 1.5 GB of ram helps keep things snappy.
2) It actually received security updates. I'm. Only 2 months behind the Nexus phones, which is pretty good for a carrier branded phone.
3) Display is nicely bright.
4) SD card support
5) Removable battery.
6) $165.
DOWN:
1) 8 MP camera,
2) No USB OTG support
3) I've had 3 times where the phone audio didn't work at all. Had to reboot to get it back.
4) Screen size a little.large for me to type in landscape.
The only one I care about is the call audio issue...

Upgrade oneplus 3 camera to IMX316

I would like to buy a oneplus 3, however the camera is concerning me
According to sample photos, the camera doesn't perform as well as hoped for.
Is it possible to change the module by the latest sony IMX316 for example? It would give a great addition to the already amazing phone

lol of course no. it's not a modular phone. And the camera sensor (sony imx298 ) in my opinion is actually really good. Might not be as good as the s7 one but it's very close to that. Also the developers i suppose will be able to improve the algorithm to make it even better.
Camera isnt best.. But it's good..
Well, i was just wondering if it can be upgraded in the future by changing the camera sensor module (screwing phone open, clipping new one). Perhaps by changing drivers
The best you could hope for would be software updates that might help the camera processing. You'll never be able to switch the sensor module. If you don't like the camera and that's a deal breaker then don't get this phone. Personally I think the camera samples are pretty good. If I need something more then I'll pull out the A6300 and use it instead.

No support for this device?

Is really nobody here who own this device and will support and develop a rom?

I'm guessing that's the case here. There are many reasons why people probably won't get this:
1. Too much competition out that offer more than this
2. No HiFi DAC like its predecessor
3. No headphone jack
4. Uninspiring design that some may not like with a glass sandwich that may make it more brittle
5. Price is too high, unlike the Axon 7
6. No Dual Front Facing Speakers (Has Pseudo stereo speakers instead)
7. Software Support may be affected again(due to politics and all)
I must disagree. The ZTE Axon 9 Pro ist very affordable given its specs. Also, it is the only performant phone sporting a 130 degree ultra wide angle lens. Most phones only have a 77 degree lens, some (Huawei Mate) have a 104 degree lens. In my opinion the ultra wide angle lens is the most underrated feature of today's smartphones.

In fact, you are right. Looks like the camera is different, too. I could not find anything about view angle on the Axon 9 camera, though.
Well in my country i got it for round about 200€ thats why i bought it and not a xiaomi. the specs are awesome for the money and the only thing i want to change is to get a working twrp and root for titanium the rest is fine no need for a rom or something like this i am fine ... but if the bootloader problem is solved there should be easy treble for this device

good welcome to zte world.
Do you want root? (first step flashing recovery TWRP)
How do I do it? to do this you need firehouse or programmer file to flash recovery via EDL.
I wish you good luck guys find it

Google only do security updates... You need to buy a S23 ultra to solve your problem
Samsung must have manual camera controls in its camera app. You have to keep the camera iris open for hours to get star trails and Google doesn't have that capability to the best of my knowledge. However there are camera apps on the play store that do have manual controls.
That said, the best camera is the one you have on you. In this case however I do think a dedicated camera would be a better option. At least you wouldn't be draining the battery while focusing on the night sky.
