No forum fo bq Aquaris X5?! Did I miss something? - General Questions and Answers

Hello,
I want to buy a bq Aquaris X5 because of lineage OS support and 5 inch display... but I can't find a corresponding forum. Did I miss something? Is it a good idea to by it in order to have lpnger lineage OS support?
Thanks for help

I have received my bq x5 plus today, and I have seen that the back camera is only 12 Mpixels, and the front one 6 Mpixels, istead of 16 and 8 as per the specifications into the website...

..just wanted to chime in and tell you guys that I am actually planning to buy a BQ device, but will not do so unless there is a LineageOS version working for the U Plus or X5 Plus. I want to have an open source OS running on my phone, so my purchase decision depends on the availablity.

2) I can change to any other ROM other than Chinese one.
3) is It a good device .
4) Which is better mate 8 or oppo r7 plus

Dear Ali,
My advise to you is to buy Mate 8 as it has the best CPU in the world which is Kirin 950.
Thanks.

Thank you for reply.
What about if I take oppo r7 plus Chinese release it can work in my country (Saudi Arabia) and if I am not root it i will not have problem
Thanks
Salam Ali,
I think it will work, but if you want to make sure that it will work or not check the "mobile Networks". Rooting the device or not this will not make any issues.
Ali, again my advise to you that don't buy OPPO R7 Plus and go to Mate 8, but if you don't want it you have a lot of devices which are better than R7 Plus such as, Xiaomi Mi 5, ZTE Nubia Z11, and LG G5. You know as for me I will buy Mate 8 from Gitex in Dubai.
Thanks.

I am not sure about you, but I have used many Android devices. From my experience, I have concluded, opensource support is way more important than corporate support. Because, in all my experiences, it is the opensource support that allow my devices to continue to be working and functioning long after the corporate support has stopped. Hence, when I was choosing a new phone, I make sure the phone has AOSP port and opensource community support is well and active. I like Oppo a lot, because their community is very supportive of AOSP. Look at their Project Spectrum for more details. I am a phablet guy, my previous phone was Asus ZenFone6. So going to anything smaller just not what I want, at least for now. Incidentally, after my experience my Asus, I am even more convinced that AOSP is the only way.
Since you are in XDA and looking for advice of which Android phone to get, my suggestion is very simple. You can choose whichever phone you like, as long as it has AOSP port.
Do take note, the CM is available for OppoR7Plus F variant only. So, if you intent to get OppoR7Plus and wants to try CM, then do make sure you get the right phone.

LineageOS on X2

Hi Guys
What's the chance of LineageOS 14.1 installing on our X2.. that would give It Nougat ?. I know Unofficial builds are out there I have one on my Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2 and it flies.... Anyone know if it possible to do the same for our X2 ?
Not sure, I searched LineageOS wiki and it's technically possible to port it to any device.
Well the very first CyanogenMod rom to be ported on X2 just appeared a very short while ago (see X2 android developement forum). That's a great step to see "maybe" to your question that would have been answered "damn no" before...
But this is quite unsure!
Did you manage to do this please? and if so, what did you use? Im searching EVERYWHERE!

Question Lineage os for poco x4 pro

Will a official version of lineage os be developed for poco x4 pro? Or should i look for other devices?
If you're desperate for a device (for daily use) and desperate for official lineage support (for certain reasons), I suggest you to look else where, oneplus or google is good for both, or of course, older xiaomi devices. Official kernel isn't out yet by xiaomi.

it seems that we wouldn't be getting kernel sources for a while since the person who used to manage the Mi code account which is the GitHub account that released kernel sources has left
Any news? Which are stable custom ROMs for Poco X4 Pro (veux)?
I'm also interested to know
Best bet would be on ArrowOS as there is already a 13.0 official version, though I'm waiting for feedback on that one before buying this seemingly nice device.
I don't see any veux/peux on their site... are you sure they have an official release? could you link it please?

ArrowOS - Downloads
Choose select device. Then poco. Then veux. Currently there is some problem with downloading files. Last week there where rom's available to download.
I hope they will fix this soon
There is indeed a LineageOS for Veux. You can get it from the "Poco X4 Pro / Note 11 Pro Plus Update"-Telegram group. Used LOS for 2 months. Worked great

what rom for a Lenovo Z6 Youth ? (aka Lite aka K10 Note)

Hello
Is there any "good" rom for the Lenovo Z6 Youth ? (aka Lite aka K10 Note)
With the official roms from Lenovo, either chinese or global, the GPS never work...
With the custom roms I tried (can't remember the name), slow-motion is unavailable, google play always gets stuck forever on "getting account details", and GPS still never work...
I find many custom roms here and on other websites but it seems that they all have annoying bugs, and I don't want to test each and every one of them...
If there are Z6 Lite users here, what roms do you guy recommend to me ?
Thanks
Try Lineage OS 12.1, pixel experience or if you want to use customization use spark os. both are available on telegram group or other you tube website. Everything is fixed now. Lineage OS pixel experience . personally i would recommend pixel rom. if you want more security try lineage os.
