First "international" ROM for Zuk Edge - Lenovo Zuk Edge Questions & Answers

For those who bought this device here it is the first "International ROM" from an Italian Blog.
https://forum.gizchina.it/index.php?/topic/718-zuk-edge-gizrom-10/
Obviously you have first to Unlock the device and flash TWRP.
The site is in Italian but Google Translate will do the work

I'd love to buy this phone but there's almost nothing about it and few ROM options, unfortunately

Yeah you're absolutely right. But i really like the Zuk Edge and i don't mind about picture quality because i never take a picture during the day (in the last 2 weeks i think i took 1 picture).
Modding is not so active yes, but a couple of Italian blog release custom ROM based on Stock ROM with GPS and multi-language. That's enough for me, ordered one yesterday!!

What I love the most is its size.
Camera is a real Con on this one. But as you said, if you don't take too much pictures, it's a great choice indeed.

Snap 821, UFS 2.1, ultrasonic Finger ID, 6GB ROM LPDDR4 for only 300 euro? That's a deal man. I owned for 2 years my beloved Nexus 6 and i was tired about modding etc etc, tired about stock UI. Tried a lot of ROMs but in the last 2 months i used my N6 original at 100%.
I just want to change, bought one Xiaomi to my GF and really appreciated (but not the unlocking BT method), try Asus from a friend. Modded a Xperia Z with Stryflex and try the last Xperia Home. "played" with Huawei and try out also one LeEco Le Max 2. Find the "chinese" OS funny and really smart.
I wondered about 1+3T but 170 euro more....i don't have so much to effort for a mobile.
I think this Zuk is the best for my daily use. Next week it will come to me, i will flash the international ROM and then give some conclusions.

Can someone post thoughts on battery life???
Thanks

Mine arrives this week.

Even better when I heard about 3k I thought it would be 5-6 hours, but the battery hit me.

I have choose and received zuk edge actually because z2 pro black is out of stock. I am very happy about zuk edge. Good phone. I don't have test if compatibility 4g+ but there is really band 20 inside.

Cyanogenmod 13 for Huawei Mate 8

Hey, everyone.
I bought my Mate 8 about two weeks ago. After my personal HTC-Desaster over the last year, i couldn't be happier.
The only thing, that keeps me wondering, is this current OS...
Sooooo, i'm saying it out loud to start the discussion ...
Does anyone know, if and when cm13 for the Mate 8 will be released?
Don't be so much disappointed, if answer will be "never" ))

Huawei Mate 7, much older device, also Kirin cpu = doomed = zero custom roms.

Mate 8 will also remain without CM13 :crying:

I'm right there with you...
Maybe, they will change their mind? I mean so many producers first said, they would never share the code, and suddenly they did.
I guess this is the dividing line...
I'm usually the one recommending phones to people and this phone is a great one, however, if there is no potential to get any AOSP/CM based ROMs on this device, then it is doomed from my recommendation on a large scale.
We should start a petition to change this, but I don't know who will join and if we will be loud enough to get them to listen.
What is the main blocker in this? Source code, vendor blobs, proprietary something-er-other? Is the Kirin impossible to get working because of proprietary drivers? Sounds like we just need more higher level devs to crack this? Maybe we can start a bounty to buy a phone for a dev that has a track record of cracking this kind if issue? Just brainstorming.

This is the link to the Ascend Mate 7 thread where they discuss this exact same issue. Maybe we can get some of them on board or get on board with them to push HW!

Thx a lot. I just posted our discussion at their board, with an invitation to join us, if they wish. Since it's same problem, we are all facing, i thought it might help all of us to work together.

I agree. On my last phone, HTC One M8, I have used CM for maybe a week TOTAL in 21 months. I have also used Google Play Edition ROM for maybe 2 months. I did not mind Sense ROMs as the performance was best with these, and they had good features as well.

Damn..
Have used CM13 on Samsung S4. Rom: great. Camera: worse.
Have used CM13 on LG G3. Rom: great. Camera: worse.
Have used CM13 on LG G4. Rom: great. Camera: worse.
Camera drivers are also often propietary. So if (will probably never happen) CM13 becomes a possibility for the Mate 8 there is always that issue as well.
I'd rather run a custom stock Rom with proper camera than an AOSP one without. And the Mate 8 is fast enough to be a great device, when using another launcher like Nova or Apex for example.
As always: YMMV, of course

urgently needed htc m9 plus custom rom or lineage os

Every phone has a custom ROM but HTC m9 plus does not have one. I'm currently running on cleanslate 1.2 lollipop.can some one post the link for lineage os or any custom rom.please

Yes, I just bought M9 plus and also cannot find any custom rom... Maybe we can find somewhere in Asia sites for this... I'm very sad now
Unfortunately, there is no custom rom for this device. I had this device for 2 years now, finally switching one! This phone was a disappointment for me, nothing worked out to be well. And since this is a MTK device we also rarely will get any custom rom.

Why disappointment for you? because of no custom rom ? Well, first I buy the phone because of the specs... Nice display, 3gb ram etc... I need custom rom too, but it is not disappointment for me... Maybe some day someone will port some rom for as

I at first bought this phone for spec too. But now, the camera takes too long to shoot, takes forever to save a photo as well. Upon recording, my rear camera lags in the middle of recording, that being said its also because my phone itself lags a ton that's why I felt the need to change my phone this year; it's not doing so well

Hey there, i am also looking for a LinageOS Version for my M9PLUS.
Maybe now someone can help out?

This or...

Hey guys, this phone seems really appealing but I'm struggling to find reliable reviews of it. Currently undecided between this and that Oneplus 5... Anyone in a similar situation or have an opinion to share?
Well - in terms of specs this phone is really appealing, but don't know if they are gonna release a global version of the device.
I am in the same situation
regarding the love that the rom creators will bring in, i think that the oneplus will be the better choice, but i like the nubia and it's specs.
Plus, the price is unbeatable.
Haha yeah, I don't think there'll be much ROM support for the Nubia Z17, but already a few weeks or so after release they've pushed out a new OTA update, as well as updates for other phones. Hopefully they'll be well supported with Android O :/
I live in the UK so will have to import this model anyway, and found a great deal on:
http://www.geekbuying.com/item/ZTE-Nubia-Z17-5-5-Inch-6GB-64GB-Smartphone---Black-380167.html
I used the Honey extension on Chrome and that saved me £20! It doesn't tell me what the code is unfortunately, so can't post it here for any that are interested.
I checked the bands/frequencies and it covers the UK ones I require, and it's a 'worldwide' model. It just seems a bit strange to me that even on the Nubia/ZTE site it's not on there. But I'm gonna go for it...
Plus those edge control gestures seem to actually be loads better than the Samsung and HTC U11 ones... Correct me if I'm wrong though!

£350 (not £20 in the end, just £10)
I have one and it's beautiful. Build and feel of the device is amazing. Problem is there is no Google Play/Framework support yet and no root or TWRP. So I'm pretty much waiting. I hear some suppliers are shipping them with global ROM's with Google support.
If anyone can link me to a Global ROM it would be greatly appreciated. Can't wait to fully utilize this beast!

Haven't done any comprehensive testing with it yet. But from my short time with it, it's really nice and has some cool features. I always enjoy Nubia's camera software suite.

Does anyone think it's weird that there aren't many reviews and basically no xda forum on the Z17? Is it just because it's mainly confined to China for now (despite there being a global version available to buy/import online)? Kinda starting to question my purchase now XD

It's still a very new phone. Forum pages on here take a while to spin up for rare Chinese phones. Things will slowly begin to develop and trickle in.

No. The device is too outdated and its s**t design makes you hate this phone even more + can bend very quickly. I'd suggest you to save more money to buy a better phone and not a 3 year old one!

Have weak points, but is good smartphone. For normal use very good, looks fine and works fine.
Hi, I think my P8lite was a great buy, I have had it for just 3 weeks, got it second hand for $85 (NZD) in good condition. At first I was thinking it was not a good upgrade from my old phone (vodafone smart prime 6 VF895) but the more i use it im liking it more.
Battery life is the only thing I could think to improve, its not terrible just not the best

need some help

Hi guys im planing to buy Asus pro m1 on current flipkart sale,since 4/64GB version is just rs 8500 its steal,but after reading most reviews,this phone looks like have lots of problem,my question is will this problems (touch lag,poor camera,poor battery performance) can be avoidable with custom ROMs? Or its hardware related problems? And finally can u guys also give me link to latest recovery which can backup data without problem? Thank you so much,all answers appreciated
Buy the phone right now. It is the best deal you will ever get and replace Stock ROM with your choice of Custom ROM. It is hardware wise a great phone. Or you could spend some more and get a Realme 3 or Redmi Note 7s.

As far as I can remember it only goes up to Balanced but with GFX tools you can run it on High. I personally haven't played PUBG for a few months now.
I would recommend AEX (some customisation) or Pixel XP (most stable) for Custom ROMs in terms of performance.
