I have Aukey car charger as well as normal wall charger. Those are rated at 2.4A? Still thinking if I should test with my other Tronsmart cable. So your no brand cables passed the CheckR test? The one I had didn't pass the test even though Tronsmart claimed it's similar to their USB 3.0 cables which passed CheckR. Emailed and they said to let them know if my cables died. One Plus has agreed to refund all those who bought their cables for the very same purpose.
*
It failed the checkr test but is still working well without any problems . I had been using it with my 3A charger, powerbank n car charger daily past 10+ days already
I will monitor n report which will "die out" eventually

Must flash the vendor image zip file too to avoid continual reboot
Camera zip is optional n I did not select it as I find Google camera simply too basic even for a simple minded photographer like me. I use 3rd party camera app camera fv5

Yup did flash the vendor image.. Read the op.. It's so much smoother than stock man.. Do u know how to flash stock marshmallow splash screen? Not fond of chromas's

Just replace the boot animation.zip in system/media with the marshmallow boot animation. You can easily Google for this marshmallow boot animation.zip
Use root explorer app to edit the system/media folder

Still waiting for my DBrand skin......  sad.gif

What do you mean small ? My photos average 4-5 mb each. I had never tested trial as it was a paid app several years back without any test version

Comparing FV5 and ProShot, in ur opinion which one produce better image?
*
Sorry I had zero experience on Proshot
I am not a demanding guy on photos quality and I am not a great photographer anyway
Camera FV5 app is sufficiently good enough for me . I had tested other camera apps too before deciding on it - Manual camera, Camera 360, Camera zoom etc

Doze had been working well on my phone on several custom roms. Did not monitor on stock official as was on it a day+ only. I need not do any special settings or tweaks - it simply works great by itself
Over few hours standby with both wifi n 3g on battery drain rarely exceed 1%. Bluetooth, GPS n sync is turned off. I don't need to even use greenify app at all

Guys this cable really not safe to use meh?
*
One hardwarezone.sg user reported is safe
Try it than only you will know
Avoid using low output charger below 2.4A output , cheap unknown powerbank without CE rating n car charger must have QC 2.0 port
Your phone very unlikely will get spoilt but those chargers might get damaged
I am using 2 non branded incompatible cables from one plus two days ( based on checkr) BUT has been working fine till now . I used these cables daily for past 2 weeks already

Where do you guys buy your charging cable? I'm not sure which to buy, afraid it might not be compatible with 6P.
*
Get from Ebay or Amazon. List of incompatible and compatible cables by Google engineer Benson Leung
Do buy compatible ones if you are worried about incompatibility. Do try searching too in lowyat garage sales, lelong.com too

How is the speaker on the 6p? Like to hear it from the owners of 6p.

Is reasonably loud and clear - can easily match my previous HTC One ( M7). Not much distortion at maximum volume. It should please most users. However its sound quality average only and loses out to my other LG V10 ( with better bass)

Dbrand released official statement saying that some orders never made it. Canada Post lost all the packages... because they couldn't handle the load. And everything has to be reshipped sad.gif

I received my Dskin in 3 weeks n I chose the risky shipment US$5
This is my 3rd time choosing this type of delivery. The first time only I chose the US$25 shipping. The difference is the US$25 was a week earlier n comes in brown envelope while the US$5 shipping in white envelope. Packaging type is exactly similar

On Spore hardwarezone no bending problems reported. Several users reported varying display problems from yellowish to pinkish. I saw the pinkish display n it was indeed horrible. Those affected users are waiting for HW Spore response as initial indications are no replacement of phone n probably replacing display only. Nothing can be done yet as no parts available
My unit has been perfect with no bad build quality or display issues.
