Honor makes one of these and it's on sale at the moment, so I'm thinking about getting one. My only question will I be able to see the time or just notifications with the window in it? Turned on or off I still just have a digital clock in the bottom left of the screen.

I just received my new Nvidia Shield today, and am afraid I discovered a defect. I was in 'about tablet' to verify version 6.0, and noticed a darkened / shadowed area at the left edge of the touchscreen, 3.3 cm below the upper left corner and extending from the edge about half a cm. It is visible in this portion of the screen regardless of what I am viewing, as long as I am viewing something that illuminates the left limit of the screen.
I haven't even had a chance to do anything with the tablet, other than the updates. I don't know what it could be. I am really hoping I don't have to send it back for another. Any suggestions?

I just got mine 2 days ago from Amazon and also noticed this. Was on Chat with Nvidia support after 20mins of waiting. Did a Factory reset, still persisted. If you disable the Ambient option under Brightness, it would look better. But I am sending this back to Amazon and they are sending me a new one.
BTW, I did an update to 6.0 and 1.1. not sure if that is the cause.
Hi Guys!
During last few years I owned Samsung's devices (mainly the Notes). Two weeks ago I decided to switch into the "new Samsung" and I have bought the Huawei Mate 8 3GB/32GB.
Unfortunately, I have two problems with my new device. The first one (less relevant) is related to the screen and the second (more important for me) to the warranty.
Problem 1:
Today I went to a shopping mall, where I compared my Mate 8 with the exhibition one. Glance at these photos: http://oi64.tinypic.com/2d7ygie.jpg and http://oi68.tinypic.com/30upisn.jpg
Can You see the difference in colours distribution and fidelity?
I had set the same options, but both devices were displaying different colours. Why? It's a problem with my device (which is the one on the left side)?
Problem 2
I need to know where is placed the liquid contact indicator in Mate 8? I am afraid that it is placed next to mini jack port. Please let see these photos: http://oi66.tinypic.com/ogf9xe.jpg and http://oi66.tinypic.com/35dc2h4.jpg
Do You think that the red mark it's a damaged water indicator and my warranty has blown up? It would be very bad, because my phone is relatively new.
I called to official service in my country (which is Poland), but they said that the liquid contact indicator is somewhere on the motherboard. It's not very precise explanation.
I will be very grateful for Your engage and help.
Best regards!
Guys,
anyone, anything?
point one: Can you adjust the the screensettings in the Menue "Colortemp" ? To a result that makes you happy?
poin two: im not from huawei but im sure they DONT have a indicator in the headphonejack.
The indicator should be inside the Phone near or ON the mainboard.

Pt. 1.
Hard to say. I can adjust the colour temperature, but I am sure that the default setting was better in that shop copy of Mate 8. What's more, I have feelings that my device has some problems with colour's distribution - the lower left side of the screen seems to me a little different in terms of colour temperature.
Pt. 2.
Are You sure that the indicator can't be seen via headphone jack in Mate 8? Did you see my photos? What's that red mark? Don't You think that it's a part of mainboard and the indicator on it?
Hoping to get my Nokia 8 today. Who else pre ordered and is excited?
I'm torn. I've had it in the shopping cart three times, but haven't pulled the trigger. It lacks some bands I need for Tmo here in the US.
I'm sure you are gonna love it! I may put in an order later this week.
Only reason I haven't bought yet is because of the looked bootloader :/
Got mine yesterday, and it's a world class handset... going to sell well I think...
Love it to bits...
Been using mine for a day now. The software isn't the fastest (I'm coming from a Pixel) but the build is nice, and the screen is one of the best lcd ips screens I've used.
I want to root it though just to increase the headphone volume as its so low
1 week with the 8 now and I'm thinking about returning it.

How come?
OS is laggy and slow, random freezes in multitasking even after updates and reboots. The phone is a lot slower than my OP3 which is cluttered with apps from over a year of usage.
Power button is horrible, you cant press it straight on from the side, you have to kinda press it upwards towards the screen.
Camera was advertised as being somehow superior to all, it is not.
Loudspeaker is really clear but not very loud.
Oh and the Sim-Card tray leaves a nasty sharp crack, this should be flush on a phone that costs 600€ no exceptions. This is not acceptable.
OS needs option to switch back and recent buttons.
OS lacks proper screenshot app.
Bothie camera crashes more often than it doesn't. Also there is not clear indication if the bothie picture will be a 50-50 / 20-80 or in what corner of the picture frame the selfie-cam picture will be.
I heard that they removed the Swipe down on the fingerprint scanner to bring down the notification shade. This is nearly a deal breaker for me since the phone is so tall. Does anyone know if it's permenantly gone or if it will come back in the next update?
I don't see it in gesture settings may come back in Android P haven't tried beta yet so can't say for sure I'm pleasantly surprised how smaller the actual phone is from seeing on YouTube looked massive for a 6'2" it's actually not bad I can just about reach notification drop down one handed but I have fairly large hands so possibly not so good if have small hands lol

There are plenty of Launchers that support pull down for notifications. The only downside is they have to be on the home screen, but with a phone like this, it's fast enough to do 2 inputs rather than fumbling with 1 hand or reaching with your other. Plus, if it's possible with hardware, I'm sure there will be a custom Rom with that capability.
I bought a Mi 10 Ultra from AliX. Of course, first thing to do after it arrived was to unlock bootloader and put a fresh install of MIUI from xiaomi.eu and get rid of the Chinese menus here and there.
Everything was great, I have been using the Ultra for already 3+ months, its a killer.
Yesterday I accidentally dropped the phone and broke the rear glass panel (I never use protective cases, but rarely drop my phones). Now the phone is still working fine, but the beautiful back panel (the transparent one) looks quite broken and ugly haha.
I have probably searched in every single website that could/may offer spare Xiaomi, but this transparent back just can't be found. Local official Xiaomi service do not repair Chinese-only phones, AliX seller does not have the back to send me a replacement. I only see rear camera or screen replacements, but no back glass panels, not to mention the transparent one.
Help me out, maybe some local Chinese users know local sites that offer those kind of things, but sites like that are not Google-friendly and I can't seem to find them.
I am prepared to do anything to make my phone look new again.
I know you really want a transparent back but to get you by and for now, try here for a black back...

Thank you, I will eventually end up buying the black one until I find the other, but the ultimate goal and quest, of course, is to get the transparent one.
Hello - did you ever find a transparent replacement?

So far not. Will order soon a black one, only one that could be found and will continue searching for the transparent one.
