I wish I can replace Z7 max battery on my own when the time comes

Haha I remembered that I've owned an Xperia S once which have built in battery but actually it is replaceable. Looking at the back of Z7max, it seems possible.

Wait until warranty over.

Official Z7 max 3.08 review

1. It's 5.0 (sadly)
2. I think 2.13 UI is much prettier than 3.08
3. I installed Gapps nad in Setting > Account > Only Nubia login ? No Facebook, Whatssup. I may have problem setting account to sync
4. Camera have nice functions
5. At earlier stage, I had trouble installing TWRP a little bit due to path setting.
6. The Data shortcut in the dropdown, you can accidentally enabled data on the second SIM. In Kitkat you can set only one SIM for DATA.
7. Scored 43000++ in Antutu
8. My Real Racing game still have bluetooth audio stutter (I thought it was KitKat BT bug) not I think its the game to blame.

Haven't tried:

1. IR Blaster
2. OTG with NTFS

Will try CM12 L5.1 later on.


More later.

I am only 2 hours with it... not impressed. Gonna try CM12.1 , its been months I didn't use CM.

I looooooooove the new nubia camera app but no sex with nubia lollipop tonite

haha was lots of your comment in needrom so syiokkk can try


When I flashed 2.13 with nubia tool, I forgot to take out the sdcard and my SIMs. Luckily nothing happened. I got lots of precious data in my 64GB sdcard .

It needs new partition size by installing 2.13 first. Android L requirement.

I've updated to the

1. latest ROM 3.08 (3 hours)
2. CM12 Android L 5.1 (20 hours) <--- very nice ROM!
3. managed to get back to KitKat 1.64 and re-flash 2.13 Lollipop.

Since (3) can be done, I am pretty happy of how easy it was.

Will do brief review later.

Hey @petrofsky77

I tried CM12.1 and I am quite happy with it but everytime I reboot after I installed all my apps, I got boot loops.

I didn't enable root at all.

Still investigating and I am really .

Really? which file?

I realized after I install all Google apps, bootloop happens. Not sure which one. still trying...

Yeah very strange.

I installed all other non-Google apps just now and it successfully boot except for Google Play and GMS.

I need to check one-by-one which app cause trouble.

My list of google apps:

- Google admin
- Calendar
- Chrome
- Docs/Sheets/Slides
- Drive
- Keep
- Gmail
- TTS
- Hangout
- Maps
- My Tracks
- Streetview
- Talkback
- Youtiup



----

OK I started from below of the list.

Google Admin causing the boot loop. I am using it because I have paid Google service.

I should have started from the above

Google Admin is the app for Domain administrators. Still works using chrome browser.

I gonna try that camera. Thanks.

As far as today, I found out the Android 5.1 rom is indeed very stable.

I am sticking to it because:
1. USB OTG supports NTFS, exFAT, FAT32 natively!
2. More options of USB connection (i think 1.64 still the fastest)
3. Battery OK, almost like 1.64 more or less.
4. Toggle better than rom 3.08
5. Switching data connection better than 3.08.

Just few little bug like:
- when I plug OTG drive, battery icon switched to charging
- perhaps driver have more room for development for its hardware
- no IRblaster
- can't install TM HyppTV app.
- perhaps trouble to call or message using second SIM


I've tested the camera ... so nice! Brilliant share!

2.13/3.08 stock camera is the best. I have more option like pro.

The camera that you gave a lot nicer than Camera FV and default camera on Android L. It have a smoother photo and do not produce lots of noise.

I wish all of the time the stock Nubia camera can run on CM12.

It can't co-exist with the android camera due to same name.

It works after i uninstall and copy manually into /system/app/camera/

not very much different in term of options but i think lesser noise. Almost like Meizu camera.





In the Auto mode, got panorama, document and some photo modes. Better than Stock android. Gonna keep this. Time lapse also got!

My issues with CM12.1

1. USB mass storage mode transfer very very slow.
2. Dialer app showing only SIM 1 to make call

Other camera that is great for CM12.1... from One plus

Got manual shutter too

I am using CM12.1

I've tried the Oppo camera.
- The plugins does not work.
- Manual shutter does not work
- High frame rate does not work
- You may get very small image saved

The CameraNext mod is better, but not all functions work.

4K video should work for both of the above (if you need 'em)


The ZTE camera you shared (web: http://pan.baidu.com/s/1pJE5ffH pass: glvk) is still the best so far. Sharp + low noise.

Something wrong with the super slow USB mass storage with CM12.1.

Transfer only 500kbps - 1.5MBps ... can't transfer my gigabyte files.

I am back to 3.08... wanna play with the camera a while - got assignment

The advanced tool which provided for restoring 1.64 if you have repartition for Lollipop roms can be used to flash 2.13 without using nubia NX505J Updater.

No need requirement for 1.64.

I keep one TWRP backup for stock Lollipop rom for the tool to work... ( no detect if use CM11/12).

Got fast 64gb samsung pro 90mbps microsd for backup

I am now camping with 2.13... take some app from 3.08.

Yes Sir, that is correct. I replace only NeoVision camera.
