Hello all. I bought the ROG phone 3. Was supposed to have it delivered today but missed it so I'll get it tomorrow.
How is Asus with firmware updates? Also is there a big community with custom ROM's?
LOS, Paranoid Android ect?

Hey Guys
I have a rooted moto x on android 4.4.4 and recently motorola released the android 5.1 OTA update for my device.
So i was just wondering if i should upgrade or not, or if there are any known problems because my friend with a nexus 5 upgraded to lolipop quickly and it was a disaster.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Pros and cons of lolipop (IMHO)
Pros:
1) New moto voice (you can set your own launch phrase)
2) Marginal lag reduction
Cons:
1) Mobile standby battery consumption is off the charts in all lollipop builds (No solution in sight yet)
2) Wave to wake on active display is disabled , can't get it to work without tasker (yes it was available in 4.4.4, although not advertised)
3) Internal space consumption is higher due to ART implementation
4) If you're an Xposed fan, the builds for Xposed right now are in the Alpha build stage .
5) Can't revert to 4.4.4 stock without chance of permanent bricking
Hope it helps

Hello. I actually searching for help with my phone and found this forum. I have the older moto x xt1058 (factory just the way it comes) it updated 4 days ago and I have already ordered a new phone diff brand. The phone is a complete different thing now.
Some of the issues include Bluetooth and wifi won't work if both on at same time, wifi connection is random, lots of lag time, turned off then back on a few times, drains battery like Super crazy crazy, and then I didn't like the changes in the way things look...like text messaging changed size and font, the keyboards changed ect.
Hopefully my phone is a fluke and other folks do much better.
Good luck to you and have a great day
what's their security update policy? monthly updates? for how long? 3 years? what about major upgrades? android 11? and when will they upgrade the phone to Android 10? thanks

This was the response from Realme when I emailed them about software support,they didn't really elaborate on Android versions and security patches though I assume that is all included in the two years.

Yes, probably a wise decision,I'm currently on the 6T and hesitant to move to Realme even with the top specs,you are safest with OnePlus in terms of reliability and support.
Thanks Manus, received my McLaren and it's indeed perfect! Last message in realme forum for now, c ya in 4 years :good::laugh:
I have recently moved from xiaomi redmi note 5 pro to Asus Rog phone 2. I have see the fabulous specifications that no other phone are at this price range. I am using phone with extra customisation like installing custom roms and kernels for some special features. I have redmi note 5 pro. I use many coustom roms and kernels on this phones it is the best phone for customisation at price range of 12k but when i purchase rog phone 2. I thought there are more developers are ready to work with the rog phone to push the limit of phone and unlock some extra features or some Kernel to boost up the performance as well as battery or unlock some special features but no developers are interested on this phone.
If i am the developer so i will always try to unlock some extra features with this fabulous rog phone 2 please help

I think the general consensus is that devs are currently waiting for the sources for Android 10 to drop before any serious development starts.
It's been a long time since I've done any sort of rom building, but I plan on at least doing some tinkering when the sources/drivers for 10 are dropped
Thank sir
Please develop some crazy stuff after the source code of android 10 released
Many people ready to support asus rog 2 Dev
Start your development for this phone.

Can you please tell what exactly is wrong with this phone and the features and battery that you really need additional developers and custom ROM and custom kernel?
It's a brand new premium device with excellent stable AOSP based ROM, the best specs on the market, you have armory crate that gives you control over the kernel on the same level as a custom kernel and insane battery performance.
So I ask again, why exactly do you need dev support and for what features?
I think you are actually right but more dev more new exciting experiment cause new thing on rog phone 2
Hi, I have a question worth it unlocking this phone and install gsi Android 9 or 10? Not worth it selling phone because I don't like miui 11!Thanks!
{ Sorry my English bad } NEVER AGAIN BUY XIAOMI PHONE OR HUAWEI ONLY SAMSUNG OR IPHONE
your phone will get android 10 updates soon you will lose frequently updates
"NEVER AGAIN BUY XIAOMI PHONE OR HUAWEI ONLY SAMSUNG OR IPHONE"
I don't like the iPhone strategy it tiles me what I can or I can't do
SAMSUNG: Avery Good phone the only problem if it's not a flagship model forget about updates
Xiaomi allows update even it's 3 years old phone with new MIUI at least and you can download your firmware updates or the compleat ROM from them directly
Hi friends
Does anyone know if there will be any further updates for X2 pro, or is it time to leave?
I am wondering the same as there hasn't been an update since November. I'm fairly annoyed about their update policy. As a European user, I only got UI2 many months after other regions, there were only bimonthly security patches and now nothing anymore it seems. I either need to unlock it and install another ROM or switch to a different phone and potentially brand. Perhaps a new Samsung A series is better with 4-5 major OS upgrades promised. Realme has to bring their upgrade policy on par with other leading brands

There will be No further updates from Realme for X2 Pro !
For quite some time there is an android 11 version available for X2 pro. Why is this version on none of the websites for download?
