Is this on the Mate Xs? I don't see the update yet. Were you part of the Beta program?

Yes Mate Xs, and no no beta. They don't always release all regions simultaneously though.
Updated and no problem, and Google still works.
Don't see much difference though.

Cool, mine is also the TAH-N29m Model. I hope I get the update soon. Mine is from Germany. Which region is yours?
I read that the multi-tasking (with the floating windows) should be better optimized for the Mate Xs. Do you see any changes in the multitasking features?

Well I pretty much never use multiwindow so I'm not sure what was added now and what appeared in previous updates, lol.
But yeah I think the little drawer is new. You can have 2 foating windows, resize and reposition them freely, and minimize them into a drawer on the side where they all stay "running" for quick access, tapping on one restores the window.
I might actually start using it more for chat apps...
I'm in Switzerland, so close enough

still nothing here..
again 10.1.0

I think it's similar to the matepad pro running Emui 11. BTW, how did you get google services on your mate Xs

Ok, BTW looks like you've had the Mate Xs for quite some time. How is the durability? Just curious as I got mine only a couple of weeks ago.

I found the stock screen protector to be quite sensitive to scratches so I put another TPU one on top which is softer and kinda "self healing" and won't scratch, with that on you pretty much don't need to care about the screen being exposed at all. After 6 months or so the stock protector started peeling off(which seems common) so I removed it (along with the other one on top obviously) and applied a TPU one again.
My Xs is still basically as new.

Thanks - do you have a link where I could buy the TPU screen protector? I think I might do the same.

you had no difficulty for the pasted?

I got some of these:
https://fr.aliexpress.com/item/4000421505635.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.210f6c37dBmTH6
They are too wide so I had to trim approx 3mm on one side, but apart from that the installation method is pretty well done. Obviously it's rather difficult to get it perfectly clean with zero dust grain over such a large area, so I have one little one right now at one place.
You might have bubbles initially but the material lets the air get out in a couple of days. Obviously best to get a few of them in case you mess up or want to replace it at some point.

got mine on 19.1 in israel

Surprisingly it's still not available in Germany

Edge VR / cardboard

Anybody having experience with edge and vr? I just ordered a "giant" cardboard vr headset.
I won't spent a ten times bigger budget on gear vr (yet) just for playing around.
Please let me know how it works. I never bought one because I was told the lenses do not work well with larger phones, and that a different lens would needed.

Did you receive it yet? If so, how is it ?
No worries, i will give feedback as soon as my unit arrives.
It left HongKong on the 12th, no idea when it will arrive in Europe.
The site says 7-14 working days.

VR Headset
I Bought this one. Quality is really nice and it fits the Note Edge precisely. Confortable to wear and really nice lenses.
3 Issues.
1. It keep pushing my volume button (more an issue of the phone lying down) so the volume is low after putting it in. Maybe a bit of tape arund the volume controls helps
2. No magnetic buttons like on the cardboard (can probably add it DIY)
3. Headphone opening is not alligned, cut out a small piece will be enough
Overall, for 16 euros I'm really happy with this sturdy device. Tried VR videos, Rollercoaster etc. Not yet found a real use.
Anyone knows how to get the Note4 VR Apps on the Edge?

I understand but what are they supposed to do if it had them
I got my unit!
The black foam looks good and our tiny edge fits just nicely.
The magnetic lever works (after i realized i had to pull it quickly) and even the NFC tag triggers .. something.
As for the software (you can try it even without the cardboard), well some apps work, others don´t.
For example i can´t start the cardboard demos and other apps have no display. Tuscany dive, Roller Coaster VR or Sisters work well. These apps are based on a different gfx engine, so the cardboard player might be a problem. The NFC tag tries to trigger the cardboard app but fails.
There seems some info on this issue over here:
http://www.reddit.com/r/GoogleCardboard/comments/2rwweq/cannot_view_most_cardboard_apps_with_i_am/
Overall this is a nice toy! But the rollercoaster got me sick rather fast but inspired my work mate to order the same cardboard for himself (note4).
I will post pictures later
So, as promised some pictures attached:
thanks for posting pictures. I might wait until they fix the bugs
so i am now trying to decide between these two. I often see people reviewing large versions of cardboard that it needs a different lens than what most cardboards come with. The first link seems to be the only one ive found to have such different lenses, intended for larger phones. Second link shows another large set with regular lenses, but that is well reviewed with larger phones. Thoughts or recommendations?

Apperantly it's only for the note 4 and will not work with edge. But galaxy S6 and edge s will have compatibility. Looks like I'm gonna have to get occculas dk2.

Yes it fits, but you still have no Oculus apps. So its a bit pointless.

Bloom Case (Baseus)

Hi All,
I've recent bought a Bloom Case, but anytime I try to install its app baseus site, in order to manage the right translucent band, I get an error: App not installed.
The case itself without the software is pretty pointless.
Has anyone faced the same issue before? I'm running the latest lollipop official firmware.
Thanks

Damn looks cool too bad its been getting horrible reviews.
I just ordered mine from Amazon. Will arrive in about two weeks. I noticed you mentioned you had the official Lollipop firmware installed? Perhaps the Android version you're running isn't compatible with the app?
I'm running the latest stock KitKat firmaware. Will see if it works when it arrives. I'll report back when it does. Cheers!
I purchased my case, the software is buggy to say the least but still love it. I'm still on stock KitKat & had no issues with software installation. I get many compliments on it for its uniqueness. The music feature doesn't work (it only plays a second or two of music then stops), drains battery, interface is sometimes difficult to press icons and software is in Chinese language. All these negative things against it but I still love it. The look and feel is top notch and again very unique side bar interface. I bought 2, full black & red with black side bar interface. Both on eBay one from China for under $7 and one locally in the states for under $16

Which sensor the app is using to detect the cover door? is it Proximity Sensor?
Might I ask what phone you have. The site says it is only compatible with 1 of the versions.

So my case arrived today. Installed the software and I have to say although I can't get the Cloud (weather) icon to do anything, I like this case. It adds a little more privacy than the S-View case. Even the notifications are more discreet. With that said, there are a few quirks like the music player only playing a second or two of music (when the cover is closed), and the icons staying on until you press the power key. Hope these get addressed at some point, but these aren't deal breakers to me. The feel of the case is like thin soft leather and the inside is lined with light felt. Anyway, for $13 on Amazon, I think it's a bargain if you're looking for a flip cover type case. This case is like the Note Edge, without the Edge part. ?

Nexus 6P tpu case spotted

Spotted this on amazon.
http://www.amazon.com/DGtle-Anti-Scratches-Premium-Flexible-Protective/dp/B0159QNX80
I can't wait for this phone... 810 or not.
Waiting to see what the other cases will look like.
And interesting lock screen image they have on there.. is that what it's going to look like?
That seems like the Emotion UI from Huawei.
Marshmallow is almost the same as Lollipop.
(I guess you can flash Emotion UI anyway, or just port the lock app )
thats just a faux image, it doesnt have the hump on the back which is shown in every previous leak. just a placeholder image dude

But the CASE shows it has room for the hump.

That case doesn't have any room for a hump. The camera, mic and fp scanner are in the right spot tho (according to the leaks) just missing the hump. The leaks could have been a a early prototype tho. We'll see on the 29th

True indeed....the camera and sensors are in the right spot...just missing the hump. I hope they got rid of the hump. I really want the phone but will not get it with that stupid hump in there.
They honestly should have kept the nexus 6 moto design. One thing they could learn from apple and Samsung for that matter is to keep a great design and just build on it till its perfect. They could just made shamu smaller and added the fingerprint scanner where the moto symbol was and that's it.

i liked the moto design it was just a tad too big. and i dont mind the huawei stuff. their premium phones look and feel pretty amazing in the hand. and their fp scanner tech is definitely quick to respond and on point. one of the reasons why i enjoy the nexus line so much (besides the glory and awesomeness that is stock android) is that you know the new nexus wont look the same as last years model. it feels like youre getting a brand new phone every year not just an upgrade

That's true about getting a brand new phone....only problem is if the new phone isn't to your liking you end up waiting 2 years for a new device...hence why I'm using a 2013 N5 instead of N6. I like the idea of a new phone every year with an updated model 6 months later.
i guess the images of the case i was looking at (with a small hump where the hump is) fooled me. I mean, am i the only one who sees it?

either way you can can clearly see that that photo was shopped. just look at the cut outs. and ill admit that with the new leaks that came out yesterday the hump doesnt look anywhere near as prominent as it did in that 1st leak . i loving the black color though. im already sold on it tbh lol
It's a nexus device, must be original Marshmallow

but waiting to see if spigen is going to have anything for the 6p.
Reading the past posts, the op is definitely the 6P case...also if, IF I get one I'm looking at that Verus case on Amazon... pretty slick.
I'm wondering if/when Spigen will release their cases. I almost exclusively buy their cases every year but I always try other brands as well. I'm the end k use Spigen/Ringke slim on a daily basis so I hope they get announced soon

Hardware differences within same model (STF-L09)

Hello fellow XDA people.
I recently acquired a second Honor 9 unit which is the Midnight Black. My first one is a Blue. There seem to be a few hardware differences between these two units. First of all is the screen and I seriously doubt they are made by the same manufacturer because of their obvious differences. The main difference is the viewing angles that differs hugely. My blue unit has really amazing viewing angles for being an LCD while the black unit loses a lot of its brightness very quickly and looks way more dull from an angle. Also the white balance differ a lot between the two the blue one has a more blur/green shift to it while the black untit has a much more warm and "fuller" white balance to it. It's impossible to calibrate them to look the same they are just different. The blue units screen look somewhat duller in comparison even though it wins easily in viewing angles. The black unit has more contrast and just generally looks more "lifelike" and warmer. It's also the most even screen I have ever seen in terms of uniformity (not that the blue one is bad). The glas front also has a different "texture" across the screen. On the blue I can really only see the digitizer marks but on the black I have this other small faint "sparkling dots" effect that some screen protectors can give at times. Nothing serious but it's there and the glas on the blue unit looks a little clearer.
The second difference is the fingerprint reader. It's waay faster on the blue unit while it's much much slower on the black one when I compare. One the blue it's instant I can't even make it fault even if I try to tap very fast. The one on the black unit has this delay and it's clearly not as fast to read my finger. The black unit also has a small delay when pressing it to go back to the homescreen while it does it instantly on the blue one which makes it feels faster in operation.
Both has touch screen issues and both run B130 firmware. The black one unfortunately shipped with B130. However there are differences here too the black one has more severe touch problems than the blue. The touch is seriously borked on the black one with both delays and lags and it's harder to use because of this. To the border of unusable really. Something must be seriously wrong with the software that makes the touch go bonkers I doubt I have hardware fault with both of them that makes them behave a little differently. Guessing this is mainly why updates have been pulled by Huawei.

Return the black one and ask for a replacement immediately
For sure this is a prove that they use different factorys for screens but this is not a news because many brands to this ( xiaomi is the first I could mention ), to me this is a case of bad or not perfect gluing of digitizer on the black one. Was a different font used between the two too or?

In fact I prefer the display on the black one it looks much better so I don't want to get rid of it specially not when I have gotten such a perfect screen regarding uniformity I never get very lucky with this historically. I will wait for software update and see if it fixes things in the end they both have the same problem that I haven't seen on any of the 4 units I have tested in store with B100.

It feels like it's software issue how the touch behaves really and not hardware. Both has same problem with delay when I scroll but it differs some between the two in feeling. Will wait for software update.

It's not really lag. It's some thing were it takes the screen a few millimeters of swiping before content starts moving. Taps and such are instant while typing on keyoard so the digitizer doesn't lag in itself. We are many with this problem and for most the issue apperared after updating to B130 while it was fine on B100.

As well as B120. They must have problems with the updates and their reasons for pulling them.

Yes, as lots of users were complaining about it.
What makes me wonder is, why they didn't provide a rollback package to b100?!

I definitely have a little better battery life on the black one. It just seems more energy efficient. Perhaps the screen is more power efficient than the other variant I don't know. But something it is as I feel it has about 10-20% better battery life than the blue unit.
Also, today out of nowhere the delay went away when pressing the fingerprint reader to go back to the homescreen. It's just instant on the black unit now too. Didn't change a thing which seems weird. Oh well I don't complain.

So which one is better in your opinion

-battery

-Screen: definitely the black unit. It has way better contrast and much better whites. The screen just "pops" more on the black. The screen on the blue looks a bit dull in comparison. However the viewing angles on the blue are much much better. Don't really care though because it's me who's gonna use the unit and not someone beside me.
-Battery: the black one seems to have some kind of advantage. The same usage that gives me 5 hour SOT on the blue gives me around 6 hours on the black. I'm guessing the display is a little more power efficient perhaps.
-Fingerprint reader: the one on the blue is much faster to read my fingers. It definitely wins this one.
Besides those points I have not really noticed anything more that seems to differ.

Samsung's official Emotional LED Case

Hi,
Samsung are going to release the new case along with the S10 range.
Found a vid on it.
https://youtu.be/ZjuoulQ6goM
I like it but can't find too much info on features etc.
I'm thinking of getting it but it's around £50.00 UK.
What do you guys think about it?
It's simple but there's something nice about it

I like it. I purchased that case along with the LED wallet case. Wasn't sure which one I wanted so I got both.
But I also wish there was more info about this case. Nobody seems to want to show off the cases or menu of the phone that much. They only seen to care about how well the cameras work.
Yeah exactly why I posted. There's hardly any information on the case or if they will upgrade it with more icons etc

Well it comes with about 50 (can't remember the exact number) but Samsung says on the website you can add an additional 60 I believe.
Nice. I'm going to ordering it then

Ok, just looked it up. It's 54 preloaded and the user can create an additional 60, per Samsung.
I saw this on youtube while im searching for official case for s10+... I really like but its $54. reminds me of Rolls royce starlight headliner.
I wonder if 3rd party case maker will make this kinda of cases.
I 've got one. IT have 10 preset led icon and can't add more icon or customize it. See pic...
That's the case I wanted in the beginning when I was going to get a free case from Samsung but then I had to pre-order from Best Buy. My husband who already had his order in with Samsung chose this LED wallet case that holds a credit card. He'll need a better strong case every day case too I really wanted to try this case and wish it had more colors. I am thinking the LED will show up better on the black. I am getting a Flamingo Pink S10 Plus. One thing about this case though the buttons are not covered up if you drop the phone I didn't really care for the sides of the case. I'd still like to see one in person and hear how you guys like it if and when you get one.

So you like I t? Is it worth getting? I wasn't sure I liked it cause of from the picture it looked like the side buttons were exposed.

I agree with you It not protect the buttons but I like the star light on back case very much, then it worth for me.

No, just show telephone icon.
I just went to the you tube video and it says has been removed by user. If Amazon has this which I haven't checked yet I have a $130 gift card so maybe I will try it. It just seems like the LED would show up better on the black but I like the white. But I read you can add up to so many more customizations right? So like you can have a different icon for different people that text you since they took the contact tone away which makes me so mad. I love the old bubbles at the top of the messages app too with favorites but since we got Oreo under contacts now it just has ringtones and vibration no text tone I've been debating whether to go back to Textra.

That sucks.. The website is not so clear in regards.

what kind of protection does it give? Is it raised from the front a bit so that i would take the impact in case the phone falls face down? It looks really nice but im not sure what kind of protection it would give.
Well my Samsung order shipped... Everything but this case. That's unfortunate...
So I just received the case, but I don't have a phone to go with it yet.
Can anyone confirm whether Samsung Pay via NFC works with this case or not? I thought I had read someone that it does not.

I have it as well and agree those are the only available to me. The settings for it seem very limited overall. I thought I would be able to assign different icons to different notifications (hello, missing LED notification light) and things like that.
Unfortunately I'm disappointed with it, so far at least. It does have a quick, cool, wow factor, but I need functionality if it's not going to offer maximum protection.
I've got this case.. it's pretty cool for showing off, but missing a lot of function.
1. NFC won't work with this case turned on. (Fortunately I don't really need NFC in where I live yet)
2. This case somehow blocks touch screen interaction when using wireless charger, can someone test this also? It's kinda weird.
3. Lack of costumization for icons or pattern.
4. When ever I use a wireless charger the led case will automatically turned off, but never turned on automatically so I have to turn on the led case again. (Probably better to use regular charger)
5. It lacks protection.
6. I wish there's a way to always on the led case. The mood light is pretty cool
That's for now I can find about this case.
I think most of it can be fixed by software update. But who knows.
Hope this help.
Unless samsung decides to improve the scope of what this case can do or someone is able to put something together to access functionality. I definitely wouldn't recommend this in its current state. I'm really disappointed.
