Hey all, I just wanted to let you all know that I'm selling my Mate 8. I recently purchased a Nexus 6P which I love so the Mate 8 must go. I will still try and make the Twisted Mate 8 and Stock roms for the Mate 8 but I'll just need a tester or two. I listed my phone on Swappa just now and hopefully it will find a good home.

I bought a Nexus 6P. We will never see any custom roms other than what's based on stock on the Mate 8. Plus the Nexus 6P has a better camera, stereo speakers and stock android which there are a ton of roms for. I love the Mate 8 but I'm selling it and looking to buy something like the P9 Max if it ever is released or something over 6 inches.

I can totally understand you.
Love the Mate 8 too, but hate the lack of custom ROMS.
Need the dual SIM for work, otherwise I would have decided on a Nexus 6p.
Don't forget the notification issues on mate 8. I have tried every ROM for AL10 and the all have this bug. I use the phone for work and need the app: root call sms manager to work with timer scheduler. It opens for call on my work sim card when at work, and disables then when work ends. But it is not working and always delayed because of this bug. My xperia Z5 dual works perfect with this app, but only have the half battery life of mate 8. And no!!
Is does not help to disable doze, use greenify or make the app a system app. It's really sad...

This is what makes me want to sell mine. I've been working on a fix for so long that I'm about to give up and sell it. Other than this the phone is wonderful.
@ajsmsg78 hopefully you continue sharing your knowledge and work with the community.

Yes seriously looking into switching to either 6p or S7 edge.
On the other hand still hoping that all these issues with the Mate 8 will be solved at some point.

I don't have the notification issues after enabling wifi and mobile data during sleep but yeah the notification issues shouldn't have even been there to begin with. I have mine on Swappa but the low ball deals people are offering me are ridiculous.
I have notification problems and nothing has worked, i wasted hours trying to get them to work.. I am going to wait till the galaxy note 6 to come out and give this phone to my parents because everyone one is low balling me on craigslist...
Notification are important to me because this is my work phone, I have to carry my note 4 when I'm on call, pretty annoying to always have two phones..
Well guys, the phone has been sold. I'll still be around helping out and doing the smaller stuff.

Enable wi-fi and data did decrease the delay, but it did not fix it. On my Z5 dual notification comes instantly as they should. I use my mate 8 only for gaming now until Huawei wake up.

I am using kingvip slim Rom and doesn't have notification issue with gmail. For whatsapp i put the apk in the system folder and it starts working. The mate 8 is the best phone i had (i owned a lot of them). Excellent battery life ( who need a phone with a dead battery at 4-5 PM), microsd card support are a must for me. I had before an LG g4 and was plagued with bad battery life and relative overheating so can't imagine an sd810 based device even if it is a nexus phone.

The 6P uses a revision 2 Snapdragon 810 chip and doesn't overheat. Mine stays as cool as my Mate 8 did. The Mate 8 is probably the best piece of hardware I've ever owned but one of the worst in software other than the early days of Samsung's TouchWiz. If the 6P had a 6 inch screen and slightly larger battery (it has a 3450mah battery) it would be the perfect phone. I still have my Mediapad X2 with a 5,000 mah battery. Talk about long lasting!
So, what noti issue are you guys talking? ? Did i miss something on my mate?

It seems like the smart plan mode kills all notifications from apps, but choosing performance apps stays alive.
My Gmail and other apps behave normal again. [emoji2]

Oh yeah for sure ! Go to settings of the Walkman music app and there are a lot of equalizer settings. How I have it set is ALOT more bass and super clear
I had viper4android + dolbyatmos ..viper is mehhh it's like throwing a filter over a picture but instead on a song....it does work but it doesn't always sound good. Atmos sounds good but this Walkman port sounds the best IMO ! The bass sounds nice and true ..but on viper when the bass hits the treble I guess you would call it would drown down.
kool, thx a lot for the feedback, much appreciated

Hmm maybe it's not working on your al10 model ? Here are my settings
yep these the settings i tried. were the, activated immediately or did u have to pause a media playback first and/or reboot ur phone? u got an L29 right? maybe my L29 firmware on AL10 is messing things up for this app ^^

Hey there,
I just received my Huawei Honor 6X last week, and i am writing this to post my opinion on this device so you guys can get a good idea about the phone, as there is only scarce information about the hands on experience and functioning of the device.
I bough the Grey coloured 3GB32Gb variant, from UAE's online shipping jadopado. At 899AED~240USD~15000Rs
https://india.jadopado.com/product/JM00329911/huawei-honor-6x-dual-sim-64gb-4g-lte-smartphone
And this seller is by far the best seller i have ever come across. So helpful that he was 24/7 available through whatsapp, double checked my phone for me, even cleared my doubts on EMUI, and created videos to guide me through EMUI:highfive:
As you can see only the 4GB/64Gb variant is shown as available, contact the seller and they will guide you to buy the 3gb variant.
I really like the phone, its sleek aluminium-clad and really slippery. The UI has a learning curve, after that its alright.
Model Number: BLN-AL10.
Disclaimer: i have only used the phone for 2 days.. These are just my opinions..
Camera:
Talking about the camera, its good #decent, not superbtastic!! Main camera is 12mp+2mp, while the front camera is 8mp
It takes good to great pictures.. I have attached some pictures..
Pretty decent in medium low light.
Autofocus in video shooting isn't spot on.
The bokeh effect(dual camera) is good, but i dont think we'll use it often.
Performance
Performance is good, will be better in EMUI 5 i hope so..
Battery
The battery has been great so far, mainly due to huawei's excellent software which handles battery management. And there is ultra power saving mode.. I'm getting around 6 hours sot as of now, will have to use for a week or two to get the correct idea.
Call Quality
Call quality has been good so far.. Using BSNL and Jio..
And in Reliance Jio (india) i am facing network signal being lost and other issues, i think its mainly due to Jio's fault, as most of my other friends also has it..
LTE CAT 6 option for faster connectivity
It has VoLTE optionin settings, but still have problems in calling from stock dialer (JIO- India), it'll get fixed through an update i hope so.. I have emailed Huawei about this issue.
Fingerprint
Finger scanner is spot on.
Speaker
Speaker is loud, but its only a single down firing one. And while watching videos we can easily block the speakers accidentally when cupping the phone.
Display
Display is great, quality is good But the viewing angles are not that good, but its not at all noticeable..
Benchmarks: (3GB/32GB version)

Honor 6x User Here Too
Me as well, is satisfied with it. Requested it from a friend who bought it from China. I got the 4GB / 64GB variant on gold color.
For it's price, what more could you ask for? I love it's performance, camera, GPS.
the only downfall i can say is it's speaker. it's only coming out from the bottom right side. but no problem with headphones.
you say you're having problem with signal after restarting it. Though i don't have that kind of problem. I did not make any benchmark yet, maybe in the future.
this might be my phone for the next 2years. It will not be outdated.
heard there would be updates to Nougat on this model. hopeful! ^_^

Some phones exhibit choppy scrolling, especially when navigating long web pages when multiple apps are running in the background. Rate this thread to express how you smooth scrolling feels on the Honor V10 under such conditions. A higher rating indicates that scrolling is always buttery smooth, even when you're reading a 10,000 word article on "how to kiss a girl".
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
On twitter, Chrome, YouTube and most other apps, scrolling is not as smooth as a Kirin 970 chip should be.
How about you guys?
Is it just me or are there minor stuttering here and there.
My earlier 3t and U11 and even MiA1 were much much smoother.
Kindly reply please.
Do I need to replace the unit or get a refund.
I mean, is this a problem with my unit only or is it widespread?
I am experiencing the same while using chrome or even facebook too. Minor stutters here n there. Not smooth as expected. Own this new phone for little more than 24hrs now.
I've decided to return it...

That is not the only issue bugging me. There is the inability to reply to messages from the notification panel itself. Every time I tap on reply to any whatsapp message. It opens the app instead.
This is definitely another bug. Phone itself is fine, but I am regretting not buying the amoled 5T. Since the price was not the factor.

I'm experiencing the same, might be an issue of poor GPU optimization
it is due to optimization, qualcomn tends to get better support because many phone is using it.
while kirin 970 is a new soc, so it need some time.
the same thing also happen to samsung exynos or mediatek Soc.
Today I bought OnePlus 5t after 2 months of using honor view 10. Because I'm tired of lags.
OnePlus 5t works like a rocket. Scrolling is very smooth. Almost like iOS.
I will sell Honor view 10.
I'm testing my new honor view 10, I'm loving it except for the delay in the scroll. the finger need to slide 4mm before the scroll follows the movement.
this happens on all apps and uis.
Upon checking the display pointer option in the dev menu, touch is registered, it's just the screen not scrolling straight away.
are you experiencing the same? how do you improve scroll responsiveness?

But don't you feel the oxygen ui so boring. After some months especially. It's not giving a polished premium feel but rather a stripped version.

No at all. Stock android uses material design guide. System looks consistent.
EMUI have own design, own fonts, own elements sizes, etc. EMUI tries to look like iOS.
But it is ugly, non consistent.
