Congratulations on v8! Even though I'm 3 pages late,hehe..
Battery usage always vary even if we have the same phone & setup. Don't know why. As long as the phone lasts whole day,that's good enough for me, for now. The only other choice of phone I see worthy enough is G2 (coz G3 is too big IMO!). |

after lots of inital set backs, i finally flashed Mahdi (i feel dreaded now, feels like going back to addiction).
Any tips from you guys using Mahdi on how to make it to good use? Planning to flash Elemental kernel in a while :-P |

Mahdi Rom supports the new CM theme manager. I don't see the point of this showcase thing if you already have a built in theme manager.

QUOTE(pokgaizai @ Jun 18 2014, 01:11 PM) Thanks, this has been bothering me since the last dialer, i thought the new dialer would have this fixed... Touchpiss??  PA RC2 here, tested the theme showcase running fine, only thing is too limited choice so far.. there are 11 themes which 4 are free. Tested with touchwiz 5.0 theme with N5.   Is it nice? |

QUOTE(haturaya @ Jun 20 2014, 02:41 PM) So far (5hrs++) the LTE signal bar looks like consistently stable. Full bar throughout those hours. Previously, occasionally it do fluctuate. Just based on visual observation. Not backed by any hard statistics. Where your test place bro? And what line do you use? Let see in a day or two and in different areas. I get pretty good reception for Digi LTE at office ( it does fluctuate). Waiting for Mahdi to merge the update (if he does) then can see if there are any improvement at all. |

QUOTE(ck.chunkeat @ Jul 24 2014, 12:23 PM) For now, I seriously think that nexus is one of the brand to consider when getting an android. Once you are used to a Nexus, hard to go back to OEM products.But then again, we have htc m8 which is also quite nice and smooth. With android L coming soon, the trend might change. If there's a day when google will be mainly responsible for all the phone's update, i think it doesn't matter anymore whether its a nexus, sony, samsung, htc or even xiaomi. If that day comes when all phone is running on stock android, I think the better designed with better specs phone will be my phone.  Even M8, tried it, but not as slick as Nexus (understandable since it's Sense-d allover). The next Nexus (or whatever it will be called) is my choice!! |

QUOTE(Xirality @ Jul 29 2014, 02:04 PM) Good then, to me both Motorola and Nexus marketing strategy is totally different world. Moto line is meant to be like iPhone, easy to use and care less about spec. While Nexus is for Android enthusiast and developer. It will be similar to LG G2 - Nexus 5 setup I think. One framework shared by two identical phones with more or less the same specs.Hopefully, the battery gets the boost it's need. If I'm not mistaken, GNex was the Nexus with the best standby time. |

QUOTE(mudkipryan94 @ Jul 30 2014, 10:40 AM) err not really, I meant the standby time. It's impacted by the battery size too. G2 can sip and stand almost 2-3 days with moderate use & the big battery helps.and battery usage, depends on you nia and if u keep watch *ehm* *ehm*/ gaming for few hours / chit-chat, then your battery will like "drinking water" |

Android L as daily driver is stable enough even for a preview version. Impressed with what is to come from Google.

QUOTE(olygopoly @ Aug 14 2014, 04:19 PM) Been reading news/rumour regarding Nexus 6. The spec is nice, Maybe should wait for it eh The specs are quite impressive but Nexus 5 will hold out a bit longer since it has it's own charm. |
