OEM skin/software - Honor 5X Real Life Review

Are you comfortable in your own skin? Is your phone comfortable in its skin? Rate this thread to express how you deem the skin on the honor 5X. A higher rating indicates that you love it: it adds just the right amount of features, it's visually pleasing, and overall it's additive to the experience. If this is a Nexus phone (you didn't think we hand-wrote all of these prompts, did you?) then use this rating to indicate how the latest version of Android looks to you.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

Not a very polished one.
Dual window mode always crash one window
Also very few apps supported.
Other features also seems to buggy at times

Nope, im much not satisfied with those themes which crashes down some font styles aswell some places on using light skin it lags or freezes for a second or two.

emui!!!!!!!!
its nice because of the added extra functions,bt the ios-ish look to it made it worse,
anyways i always have my theme to get rid of it:laugh:

EMUI looks cleaner, when you delete their icon file.
The first thing to always do after rooting, so its awesome as far as it contains all the features that are present currently

EMUI 3.1 was not very attractive in my opinion, but with EMUI 4.0, I think it looks pretty "clean" in a sense that it made EMUI more smoother with some of the animations that 3.1 caused lag to, overrall, I think they should add more themes to the stock app that come pre-installed in the phone because I only have 2 themes that are the same, and it is spectrum.

Yes, Spectrum is their default one, I recommend to use Material VUi by @venom007 its awesome.

Yeah, VUI

Seems like the theme Emui is abit to heavy, cause when I transferred from a custom launcher and put my own theme I noticed greater performance and much more RAM available...I feel they still need to work on their Emui... Appearance wise it's not bad,not too good too... Hence why the majority of people end up using Custom Themes and launchers

[Guide]How to make your SGY look Excatly like iPhone!!!!!!!!!!!!

1)Install Espier launcher(For the home screen)
2)Install iLocker Stock(For the lock screen)
3)Install iPhone Notifications Lite(For the notifications)
After you install all these from google play you can enjoy!!!!
Notes-1)Do not install Espier launcher HD cause it does not look good(The app name does not display)
2)iLocker Stock works best in a rooted phone so it would be good if you root your phone using a suitable update.zip root package.
3)iPhone Notifications Lite is a free version so it only displays notifications for certain things like(missed calls,Msg,and some more)
The images seem to be broken for me.
On a related topic, I'm working on a theme for HYBRID4 so that the status bar looks like an iPhone
EDIT:

the status bar is slightly transparent.
Only things left are:
- fixing the battery
haha why do you want a theme look like iphone ??
but you an android make the best of it dont imitate a iphone look a like
if you want to look like a iphone buy an iphone
just my expression ...

This phone was £90.
iPhones are rubbish and cost £400.
Admittedly I do like the look of an iPhone but hate the features of it.
So making my ANDROID look like an iPhone seems like the best of both

yes man, no doubt..
i love this phone more than iPhone, Cost many Get moore
1)Firstly, slicktrick22 i could buy an iphone but only if it would cost like ~15000INR(Im a 14 yr old indian)
2)iRhyiku i agree with your point. The looks of iPhone and the app grouping stuff is awesome but iPhone would be better if it could be open source like android so that it could have stuff like rom flashing and custom kernel. And good luck on ur theme..By the way srry for the broken links
iLocker
Where can I get the iLocker in flashable zip file?
Anyone could help me?

I have 2 questions
1. Is there any way to increase color staturation via tools or upcoming updates from sony. (ie display colab was ported to xperia z)
2. Will this tablet recieve the 4.2.2 update or is cm10 needed.
Thanks and i apologize if the questions are too noobish.

1. Not yet. My guess is that we will probably see it in a 4.2.2 update. No one actually knows yet.
2. Sony have said it will be coming soon. No date has been given though. I'm really hoping it improves performance or I'll have no choice but to go for another ROM.

what problems are you having performance-wise?

Really nothing major, but it does stutter with the recent apps draw and similar little things. It also doesn't play animations very well in some spots. It is pretty snappy for the most part though, just not quite Nexus 4 snappy.

Nope, I'm on nova launcher. It's very fast and fluid on the home screen. The choppy animations are pretty random in odd areas, but still frequent enough to make me notice them. Small apps is very choppy for example.
For 1) - I am using the App "Screen Adjuster" for that.
Screen adjuster doesnt have an option for saturation or gamma. Hope sony releases their app.

4.4 KitKat officially confirmed!

The 4.4 update has been confirmed by Morten Aagaard, manager for LG Denmark at a summit in Copenhagen!
Source (in Danish). Translation goes as follows:
"We're bringing an update plan for LG G2 for Android 4.4 KitKat by the end of the year or the start of the next year. But of course there will be an update for G2"
This is great news, guys! That French carrier "report" (which was slightly shady at best) was actually telling the truth!
How does that make you guys feel?
Did we ever doubt that it would get kitkat? We dont need confirmation to know this
And in my opinion the date doesnt matter unless its like supersoon to be excited about or superlate to be dissapointed, but this was expected.

I absolutely love what LG has done with Android. It's fast, customizable, beautiful and very, very stable. Not a single crash, and I've been using the phone a lot for six days now. However, transparency for 3rd party launchers and ability to hide the navigation bar would be cool. Otherwise I have no complaints. Best non-AOSP experience for me.
LG has impressed me so far, with the only problem being some of the performance problems (probably due to LG choosing a conservative scheduler and the aggressive throttling). This is with no doubt the best phone I've had. Samsung can go into a corner and adore their blue-screen-tech.
Nice nice, looking forward to it!
Well it's not very common for mfg's to skip an android iteration entirely. They usually roll them out incrementally. So yes, color me surprised they are jumping 4.3 and going straight to 4.4.
However, we should probably have some 4.4 lovin' before that in the form of some aosp rom.
Sent from my LG-D800 using xda app-developers app
actually i think we really do need an update, but it doesn't have to be 4.4 or whatever. we just need some issues to be fixed or removed in some places like low camera performance at low light in the camera, some stutterings and lags which are preventing the smoothness of the UI and etc. Unless lg get these done, i don't even care if they give android 5 or 6.
I come from TouchWiz so I don't understand what's all the gripe about. Samsung enabled notification bar toggle removal with 4.3 (not sooner) and LG's UI allows me to tweak and add and customize pretty much everything I want.
Case in point: when I plug in my headset, I can edit the apps in the bottom mini-drawer instead of using the preset.
All I'm waiting for from 4.4 are TRIM and ART.

And OpenGL ES 3.0 (from 4.3 but still new on G2)!
Contrary to popular belief, it's not all that uncommon for companies to skip updates. I had the Sony Ericsson xperia x10 which was updated straight from eclair to gingerbread, skipping froyo. It happens, and excitedly believable in this case simply because the phone was launched behind an update. I expect that lg will go through 4.3 and straight to 4.4.

I will never install lollipop as xposed does not work nor the plugins i used to customize my g2. I'm happy as is.
Besides, lollipop looks like it is designed by my 9yr old kid. Lots of bright overexposed colors with childish icons that look like someone would draw during pictionary.

You could go with CM 12 when the theming engine is ready.
I had heavily used xposed as well, at least in my opinion, sometimes as much as 20 modules. Normally about 5-7.
Now at CM 12 I disabled even root and am happy as it is.
No matter what I tried the original LG rom with custom kernel, or not, was always laggy to me, incoming call screen as hell..
Might have to do something with the apps I had to install ... Maas...however CM is something completely different..
Or might not have been laggy, now perceived as laggy after I tried CM
Only thing I miss is the custom camera apps... or camera fixes.

The Android O system UI (Discussion and Screenshots)

What do you think about the Android O system UI? I'm attaching some Screenshots I made from my Pixel XL so everyone can see what I mean, even if they haven't tried it.
Personally, I don't like the colors at all, I prefer a dark background and white icons. But I guess we'll be able to theme that later. Also, the settings have a lot less items compared to Nougat.
it like android 7.0?
what devices run android o . is it official yet ?

Android O is in Developer Preview 3 yet. Only Pixels and some Nexuses run Android O.
feels like they copied touchwiz's grace ux concept
lol
but its all good as long as the android overall UI is beautiful im fine with it!
unless im wrong about this.. did not really catch up with android after marshmallow. its just too fast
I think this is in inverted color mode....may be they would replace with actual colors in final version...
nice
This looks clean and fresh. I really like white interface. But there Should be an option to change into dark mode
it works on motion rom [LP] ? grand 2 duos ?

No, these are screenshots of the Stock Android O Developer Preview on the Pixel XL. Just screenshots. Nothing to download.
Nice looking, I really like white and light UIs. But there should be an option to have a "Dark" mode or something.
Heck, use their OMS!
