Anyone wanna trade my poco f1 for another unlocked phone? - Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers

Hello All,
​
I am looking to swap my Poco F1(bought in April of this year) due to the incompatibility around military installations in the US (Service members are also discouraged to carry a Chinese phone around base). This phone will not work on CDMA networks and even a couple GSM bands are missing. Unless you are in major coastal city in the US, I discourage you trading this phone for what you have. This phone works well in LA and San Diego region, which is where I was prior to PCSing.
​
This is a wonderful phone without a single scratch. It comes with a screen protector that covers the entire screen (+an extra one as you can see in the picture). The phone is the snappiest and smoothest phone I've ever touched. Everything is included that was originally in the box.
​
I prefer a Samsung or LG. No Chinese phones please, unless they are an official US version. Please be from the US to trade.

I would suggest change the ROM to Pixel Experience or any other non-MIUI ROM. For example: https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f1/development/rom-pixel-experience-t3857076/page1010

Where are the developers?

So far, only xboarder is really working on this (with some possible help but not posted), and he does not have a phone. Appears someone reneged on a deal.
When the MT4G and G2X came out, there were a lot that jumped in - what is the issue here?
I don't think you know but the device dropped on 10/17 i'm pretty sure & alot of people are viewing thread's just not as much developers , there are about 2 developers here now .
Developers are having hard time to decide which device should they buy..
they got multiple choices now...
Samsung Galaxy 2
Samsung Nexus 2
Htc Amaze
Plus all the devices are expensive to its gone he hard for them to get all....
Same , i just bought the amaze as a temperary , once the Galaxy Nexus come's out i'm purchasing that . The SGS2 has a terrible screen .

Team Whiskey will be on board soon--the phone is VERY new and we need to give people some time to buy the phones before they can start cooking.
Nevermind that the bootloader / s-on is still an issue...

The nexus will only come out on Verizon for the foreseeable future - and switching carries for the phone of the moment is ------.
As for Samsung, I have only had bad experiences with their software/policies - so not going there anytime soon. LG for same reason is also an issue.
How about buying all the developers this phone at full price so we can get the roms out? No? Bad idea? Why not? Too much money? Oh... didn't think of that.

I made my point. Simply put there are few developers because there are few developers with the phone. I'm a bit sarcastic at times.

The point was - is there some consensus that this phone is not of interest for some reason? I am in the remorse period and so not want to stick with a no-interest phone.

There sure is. It's expensive as hell! How many other phones are out now and how many are on the horizon? From a developers perspective they have a lot to chose from. Odds are slim that we'll get dozens of developers that are going to get this device immediately after it's release. We might get one or two at first and that's about all we have. For f#@k sake the main developer doesn't even have the damn phone! Give it time or return it. It's up to you. I am sticking with it because I see the potential and I believe that development will open up in the near future.
Examples:
MT3G didn't start getting support for about a week after Cyanogen got it.
MT3G 1.2 didn't start getting support for MONTHS because of driver conflicts and the lack to crack the bootloader (which still hasn't been done).
Vibrant... still doesn't have a stable CM rom release and it's been out for over a year.
These are just devices that I know about for certain. I'm sure there are many more.
So we've had the phone for less than a month and people are getting impatient? Why? Did you think that we'll have root BEFORE the phone was released? Just be patient. It's very unlikely that this will be the only phone that isn't going to have ICS, CM7/CM9, etc.

[Q] SGIII firmware Modification - method Suggestions?

I have a Samsung Galaxy III, and I LOVE it, there is only one Problem, it is not eXfat/SDXC compatible, I've heard there are a number of ways to fix this (one person suggested Rooting it, another suggested some sort of unofficial Patch, there were few other suggestion suggestions that I can't remember )
I was wondering if someone could advise me as to what the best option would be and/or point me to a how to guide
Much Appreciated...

AFAIK the only way you can make any modifications is to have root permissions, so you would need to root. All the guides and tuts are in the General thread.

And what about after rooting? do the guides also explain how to add SDXC compatibility for larger sdxc micro cards (I have some custom made 256gb ones coming in from China that i plan to start selling with a couple left over for me to put in my phone)

what about after rooting? go to the development section and take a look at some roms/mods - the general section has a few mods too, there are some regarding exfat/SDXC, not sure about 256gb ones!

don't worry, I'll stress test them for a few weeks before I start selling them, at this point SDXC micros only go up to 64gb on the "official" market so this is the only way... Want me to let you know when/if they pass the stress test? I'll give you a special deal.

LG G5 AOSP Development GoFundMe

Hi all. For those that's don't know me, my name is Rashed and I'm the current CM LG G2, HTC One M9, Oppo R7+, and Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014) LTE maintainer. I would like to be able to develop for the G5 as well and bring CM to this wonderful device, however, being a student, I am limited on cash right now, so I am reaching out to the community to ask for help in acquiring a G5. I have started a GoFundMe (link below) that will go solely to the purchase of a bootloader unlocked G5 that I can bring CM up on. To anyone who does donate, I thank you for your generosity and confidence in my ability to deliver.
Thank you

I'd buy either the T-Mobile variant since it will most likely be unlocked like the G3 and G4 or the EU unloackable version, depending on availability.
I will happily throw some cash your way if we can confirm that the G5 comes bootloader unlocked or is relatively easy to unlock via official channels.
I though you don't supposed to ask for money on xda?
After only having root for G4 for so long.. I'd stuff money down your pants too if there's a multi variant boot unlock or even bump for that matter.
The main goal is to have some sort of way around it as you can only root marshmallow with a modified kernel. The road looks tough but I'm thinking this device will be more popular than the G4 was...

I'm 99% sure the T-Mobile variant will be unlockable and so will the EU non-carrier variant as well.

Rooting on 6.0 is pretty difficult due to the dm-verity Google added. But I'm confidant there will be an exploit.

Yeah it's a great phone. If you are a grandma with Alzheimers and don't know what rooting is. I have it. I use it to lure theives into my place so I can shoot them. I post pictures on Craigslist of it sitting on my front door step. so far Ive had a dog knock my trashcan over... no way to root it man. they've had scientists working on it for months. so far. we've found that Verizon stuck a big FU on it and then charged $770 for and then just for fun they call to remind you that there are companies such as straight talk that charge a fraction of the price and your bill is due. if you can't pay. too bad you can't take your s6 edge plus to another company cuz they love you so much and if you look at that other phone they will slap the piss out of you in public. basically you bought an overly insecure girlfriend in the form of a phone. but hey at least you can't expand the memory with a micro sd right?! I couldn't trade it for a rock being dropped on my foot. ENJOY!
Lol you are hilarious. I bought the phone for 350, its just gorgeous. Would have loved the root which I miss. However its a steal at 350 given the hardware stupendous phone, display, style and camera unmatchable in the hardware section. I bought it unlocked so I can use it anywhere
Hope Verizon unlocks bootloader soon... Cheers...

Yeah I have been hoping for a while. actually I do have a question concerning it and not sure who to ask. If i were to swap the logic board with say a t mobile one would I be able to root it? I know this would basically make it t mobile phone but then i could root it. I found one craigslist for 100. not too hard to do either. I've replaced the screens on a bunch of galaxy phones. and not the cheap two sided tape either but the UV glue and all.
Apparently Verizon S6 Edge variant already has a working root. Dont know why Plus model doesnt have. Looks to me that given it was expensive not many experts bought it and hence no root as developers and experts didnt buy it maybe.

Yeah you may have a point there but man am I hoping you're wrong. especially with the note 7 coming out at $100 more than the s6 edge plus. I will say the one thing that I have been upset not to see is the 16mp camera lately. it seems backwards as heck and I think some of the designers are smoking their own bath water at samsung... I can see the board room meeting now. "I have the absolute best idea ever! let's put a bad ass camera on this thing and then we'll throw away the micro SD slot so you can really only get a picture of Samsung waving and smiling! And then after everyone complains about it we'll bring back the SD slot and the S7 will come stock with a permanent bootloop animation of us flipping them off!" and then the CEO says "genius! and let's not bring back the big screen either. because the dumb asses who buy the s6 edge plus and get use to the big phone will then get the s7 and because it's smaller will drop it. leaving little pieces of glass all over the US and cutting the bastards feet. Get to is boys! next a I want to come out with a 3 in 1 laptop. first you have a tablet mode and then of course the laptop, but then randomly a baseball bat comes out an beats the living hell out of the user. The US will fall just like the south fell to the yankees when they introduced Twinkies and mobile homes."

im new at this whole thing. ive been trying for weeks and even months to try and find info on rooting this dang phone. So, it cant even be rooted with the bootloader unlocked?
Looks like. Mostly because not many people bought it because it was expensive and developers also didn't buy it. I'm sure it's easy for any seasoned developer to root it. But I don't know anyone. Anyways very happy for a price I bought it 350 bucks unlocked.

Apparently Verizon S6 Edge variant already has a working root. Dont know why Plus model doesnt have. Looks to me that given it was expensive not many experts bought it and hence no root as developers and experts didnt buy it maybe.

its unlocked? Bootloader is unlocked? or is the OEM unlock toggle checked in DEV options, some will assume because that's checked that its unlocked, Sorry to Burst your bubble but All premium phones at Verizon are unlocked for international use, meaning you can use other sim cards in them But I doubt the Bootloader is Unlocked from verizon
I'm gonna be buying a temp phone soon so I will be able to send mine to a dev if anybody is interested in trying to crack this device.
You got it.

I need root too.. i want to remove verizon screen when startup..
Even Verizon galaxy s7 has been rooted by the community. I don't think we can get root unless any big developer buys this. Till then enjoy the hardware and pray we might get root and better software experience :laugh:

OK I pledge 25 Dllrs if we can get this going

Mate 10 Pro or HTC U11+

This phone or HTC U11+? My concerns are great point and shoot camera, LTE connectivity (T-Mobile), and ROM development. Any suggestions or advice is appreciated, thanks all!
Dude, really?
I mean, I'm not trying to flame you for your question, but for clarification, imagine i say this?
What's better, a Ford Fiesta or a Ford Mustang? (Even though in my example both are the same parent company)
Do some research and come back and make me proud!

Fair, dumping my HTC U11+ and moved to this. Just more going on and I'm enjoying the buttery smooth Rom and connectivity. Then again, a Mustang in the wrong hands.......

I have BLA-L09, European single sim, with yours have you been able to get VoLTE? I might rebrand to gain this feature as I missed it with the U11+.
And I'll ask a follow up question, would you take this over a Pixel 2 XL?

I imagine all phones are stalking us. Huawei has the current spying rep against it but again, all do this, just to what degrees.

A rep is something you have earned. Huawei hasn't earned anything as that's unfounded; how convenient! When you factor in Huawei's current might and abilities in contrast to the US counterparts (and I'm not talking Apple (because, as we all know, Samsung is Korean, but I'm thinking more like Qualcomm, at&t, etc (each in its respective covered fields)

Yes, they're all doing it, and it's not gonna go away, but i don't see Huawei losing battle after antitrust violation battle in EU, of course, because Stateside, they're each other's buddies (u.s. government and Google)...
Now that would make concrete evidence against Huawei, too bad THEY DON'T HAVE ANY

All fair points, I'm now wondering if it's worth paying to rebrand to the US Mate 10 Pro to gain VoLTE. Hmmmm....
