Being an old device now, the development is slow but it justifies. Now that there are many new phones far better than 3C.

So sad to see the lone dev to leave.

Well Hassan looks like he's coming back.

Due to limited unit sold, the development is not as strong as other brand.
Development has rather stagnated. Hopefully this will pickup soon.

Currently, a repacked CM build or modified stock are the only Roms 4 months after release. Community is anaemic at best.

One+ 3.
I'm actually gonna wait one more month. If this doesn't pick up, I'll trade it for a One Plus 3.
Hi, this does not move anything and that makes me consider getting on with the Z

OEM skin/software

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 3C. 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.

Cluttered EMUI. Takes some time to get used to it.
Good ol days where EMUI is still close to stock Android.
Jellybean EMUI is the sh*t. :laugh:

I do dig this device, and it seems much higher end than the price tag would indicate. I do, however, have some questions for Sony, namely why isn't this device listed at all on the Developer World forums? Why isn't there a branch on github for this device? Why does it seem like the L1 is the bad son in the Sony smartphone lineup?
The best thing about this phone is that it's spurring me to dive into Android development, as I've been strictly relegated to MatLab and various engineering softwares. I miss coding because I'm a glutton for punishment, but I digress.
Of course I have no delusions about anyone from Sony actually reading this, as they are clearly in a hands full situation over on the Developer World beat, but in the event one of you drop in to test your smart spectacles, I have a penny for your thoughts, and that, friends, is just my $0.02 for the day.

I would like to give 10 on 10 to the community because now we have everything that we need for the healthy development of the phone as the company has released all the kernel source code and the bootloader unlock tool and the company is delivering the bimonthly security updates of the Android and important updates to the phone as soon as possible and as soon as they are found
So now it is our responsibility to take care of this community and keep this development healthy in order to keep this phone alive in the years to come because these days the metallic phones don't wear away so easily and then it to be cared so that they will be going on for years
It's flourishing everyday... Awesome
Can't say it is great as of now. I was using a OnePlus before and the development for that device used to be far far better. It has been about 3 months since our phone has been released and we still don't have a 100% stable custom ROM yet. People still complain about minor issues with every custom ROM and that's the reason why I'm sticking to the stock ROM. Hoping things will get better.
ok all is done yes sd636 is only 5mts old so we have to for further development
hope community get stong as time passes
Thanks for your sincere effort for The Rom developments and any kind of issues fixing, I wish them all the best.

This phone is good on paper and to some extent in real life, coming from my three old OnePlus one I have several complaints, which I've listed below.
1. Despite having an "NXP Smart Amp" this phone does not provide decent audio experience compared to my old oneplus one, the audio output is lacking depth and harsh, simply not pleasant to listen to.
2. The fingerprint sensor does not work while the phone is connected to the charger.
3. This phone has 2.4Ghz WiFi only which cannot be used reliably if you are using bluetooth at the same time, because of interference the network jitter goes up significantly. (from 2ms to 140ms)
4. Vibration response while being decent is too delayed, adjusting the haptic feedback settings from 0 to 30 ms leads to no haptic response at all, you have to crank beyond 50ms to get something significant out of it. But still, at times the haptic feedback will miss while typing.
Looking at the community and development support going on for this phone I really hope that at least the first and second problem gets a resolution, as the other two are related to hardware itself.

You're a power user. Can the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 keep up? Rate this thread to express how "healthy" the development scene is for the Samsung Galaxy Note 9. A higher rating indicates available root methods, kernels, and custom ROMs.

The activity is overall underwhelming despite the amount of potential the Exynos 9810 has. There are plenty Custom ROMs for people’s needs, but they don’t feature any heavily customized Kernel that makes use of the true power of the SoC, and instead, they rely on a Samsung’s horrible work with the processor on the software side of things. And there still aren’t many good choices, most being port ROMs, they will inevitably have bugs hidden somewhere. Nobody can keep up with the amount of files in an OS and port all of it perfectly.
Custom Kernel development is dead. Only one developer is active on it (ykkfive, that I’m currently supporting).
While there are Kernels for each Android version of the phone in its European variant, there aren’t a lot of choices to meet people’s different requirements.
USA variant not worth talking about. Development is just dead. But the bootloader is locked so it’s not worth it to root to my eyes anyways.
The development scene is overall a 3/10 to me. Not healthy. This device deserves much more.
Well, still second to SM G531F development. As that is by far the worst I’ve ever seen
