If you don't mind a bigger phone why not?
Yesterday's food. ![]() For me the screen is very sensitive especially on the side. Maybe because i'm using tempered glass protector. So when holding the side need to be careful. Else it will register as a touch and any other touch you're making won't respond. |

QUOTE(xisan @ May 27 2016, 01:41 PM) That 2-3 pages per folder is quite a pain to search. Just search using the swipe down feature? At least for me as I own others android phone that have no problem show more than 3x3 on default themer. Priv shows 4x4, S7E is vertical scroll, Robin only shows 4x4 (cannot add more) and my jb iphone shows 5x7. So using 3x3 is really awkward for me. Seems there is no dev that can tweak this Using 3rd party themer is not an option as I don't want it to sucks my battery juice further In the meantime it seems that we are very behind in terms of update. B331 just came out in China and KangVIP already updated.

QUOTE(coldfission @ Jun 8 2016, 07:53 PM) Let me also give some comparison between pro mode and normal auto mode. The darker one was captured using normal mode. The brighter one was using pro mode to snap it. Normal auto mode [attachmentid=6799567] Pro mode [attachmentid=6799579] QUOTE(cwleong59 @ Jun 9 2016, 08:12 AM) I just use normal mode. Coincidentally had a shot from yesterday. The camera was exposing for the sky. The people are so dark even in HDR mode. So i focused on the people and adjust the exposure up. Sky gone but i want to see the people.![]() So i heard you like HDR so i HDR the HDR pic in Snapseed HDR Scape. ![]() |

Adui still talking about the camera?
This article really made my point clear. QUOTE All this exercise does, is tell you that if all you want to do is post photos online, then just about any camera will suffice. http://digital-photography-school.com/does-the-camera-matter-slr-vs-mirrorless-vs-smartphone/To paraphrase, anybody who asks what camera you took a photo with probably doesn’t understand photography. All that matters is the strength of the photo – did you capture an interesting subject? Is the composition strong? Is the lighting beautiful? Does your photo move people, inspire emotion? None of this has anything to do with the camera, and everything to do with the photographer. So, why do we have this endless discussion about cameras? Well, for most of us photography is a hobby and discussing gear and lenses is all part of the fun. |

QUOTE(thankyou @ Jun 17 2016, 01:25 AM) Mmmm... don't really feel advantage on rooted phone anymore... thinking unroot and lock bootloader for Astro OTG... I'm thinking of rooting for adblocking but afraid some apps might not work. Unlocking bootloader only clears up the internal storage right? Also, can you apply manual update if the bootloader is unlocked?what do you do with root these days? |

QUOTE(thankyou @ Jun 17 2016, 10:33 AM) You still can update manually with the full update file but you will lose root capability. to re-root, TWRP will need to access to internal storage which is encrypted every time update the software. So after each manual update, you have to reflash the decrypted boot img? Or can just simply re-root by flashing supersu in TWRP again? I'm a bit confused.a lil troublesome unless you flash with the following boot img http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/ori...ot-img-t3311306 This post has been edited by Joseph Hahn: Jun 17 2016, 12:22 PM |

QUOTE(thankyou @ Jun 17 2016, 12:33 PM) After update from B180 -> B320(+B320), my internal storage is encrypted and to decrypt, I have to wipe my internal storage which I refuse to. Ah ok. So tedious. If you have to decrypt the storage every update, then what's the point of the decrypted boot img? Is it because you lost root if you reboot?Now I'm left hanging half way... I have TWRP... but i'm not rooted... You can't even flash super-su in because TWRP couldn't read internal storage. |

Uh... those usage kind of make sense. GPS use a whole lot of power. And your screen is obviously on for that 1 hour. Speaker obviously use more power compared to earphones too. I don't complain when i play games a lot and only got 5-6 hours SOT. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
