Just received. Does this have the touch screen sensitivity fix as well ? No mention about the screen (see attached pic), but mentions battery improvements though
What country and carrier? I just installed 10h from Rogers in Canada and it definitely fixed the touchscreen issues I was having.

Same ^^^...... Good to know, installing right now
It did. It works like a champ. The first thing I did after i flashed it was root it, lol.
@GibMcFragger, THE Low Effort root works? Pls explain a little. Or your device's bootloader is unlocked?

Yep. You don't need an unlocked bootloader because you aren't using an exploit. You just backup your system image, inject the root files into it (the backup that's not on your phone), then flash the rooted backup via ADB. You can flash full KDZ or system images in download mode with a locked bootloader.
Got it as well in Israel (h815L) , cant see any difference than F version we had before.. probably under the hood stuff
Battery improvements had definitely worked... I would normally use about 8% battery in about 8 hours of zero use.... Now I used 1% in about 8 hours of zero use..... At the very least, standby performance has improved

How do you inject the root? I've used this method but only with pre-rooted IMGs. Otherwise, I noticed an improvement in responsivness and unlesss I am wrong, increased call volume/clarity.

You need Ubuntu to do it, but it is easy. The steps are in the root thread.
I've been using it for a few days also on a Rogers G4. I didn't have major touch issues but it is more responsive now. Battery is better but there is way more throttling when gaming now. It starts to throttle and lags a lot to limit heat when gaming. However, the phone itself is smoother and they fixed some things. I like that they added a notification volume control that is separate from ringtone and they moved the slow motion to Mode in the camera app.

Try disabling the Game Optimizer option in Battery Settings, probably some throttling setting. Mine is enabled by default. I did notice a lot of heat coming from this phone. Had it for about 2 days prior to update, haven't felt any heat since.

I had it disabled when the throttling happened .
What I read it does is that it reduces graphical quality a bit to give more battery life.
Can you upload me system/etc/thermal-engine-8992.conf?
It contains the thermal engine temps and actions so that I can compare it and mod it

Attached. Note that I'm not rooted so I won't be able to test.
Thank you so much.
I'll give it a proper look in a few hours but from a fast look is not different from the euro v10e one.
If you want when you'll be rooted I can mod it to have gpu intensive games going smoothly even when heating (cutting more aggressively cpu wich doesn't mean much in rr3 for example)

Same here gone from 10f to 10g and now to 10i and will test this version over the weekend and see how it compares to 10f.
Managed to run 10g for a whole few hours before flashing this one so cannot really comment on it at all.
I jumped from v10E directly to V10i
I flashed the V10i and now i'm installing all my applications
Purplegrake root works well on the V10i
later i will give my feedback (i'm coming from V10G Global)
the first thing that i can say is: better signal reception and less overheating during charging!
Can this be flashed on all d855 16 gb models ?
So, I made several tweakability (you can see what time maybe)
firmware V10i
Clearly, a further small step forward with signal reception, overheating and lag
Do not overheat now, even (and this was a problem), while charging the battery keeping the phone turned on. In addition, install and set above all the applications from scratch (it took me about 2 hours) never exceeded 38 degrees (celsius) despite being almost two hours in a row with the display turned on at 80% brightness
I seem to lag just disappeared, even in the drawer is not known anything except immediately after turning on the device, also going to add the widget does not load them right, they are immediately available
After a little 'test, I did root (method PurpleDrake working) and I removed all the garbage LG pre-installed, I set the animations to x5, I set Art and finally I disabled HW overlays (always on the menu developer)
the terminal is fresh and perky
only bug was apparently the clock (am pm 24 hours), how much time needs LG to solve this problem?
Note: I came from the Global V10G version, before updating I formatted, then I have updated choosing the formatting method, and after the update I reformatted
Firmware recommended :good:

Hi all,
as stated in the past days by oneplus, a new touch firmware has been released and will be in cluded in 5/15 cm12.1 nightly. this should (i hope so) resolve all the remaining touch issues that affects many opo
Here is the coomit: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/98287/
05/18: The touch firmware has been reverted to the old one because of battery drain caused by dt2w
sub.
Looks like working very good. Flashing Nightly and screen is more responsible ever sinde the failure occured. waitung für Lord Boefla or slimkat to include it

Yes, working fine for me.....
The question now is.... will be forever?
multi touch on mine phone on x axis is still jerking from time to time
sometimes it works normally, detects 2 fingers, then on the other hand detects one or none
will see how it will perform through the day, but since i made a clean flash, i doubt that it will be better...
I have the grounding issue with my ONE. No problems with higher temperatures though.
I flashes Franco Kernel r43 boot.img on my stock cm12s. Fo rme the issues are gone.
x-axis touching is working good. Swiping texts is finally possible again!
Thanks to synaptics!!
I will probably switch to cm12.1 nightlies again when I have some spare time left.
Any way this could be a flashable zip for all ROMs or is this something that is baked into the ROM/Kernel?

You can flash Franco's kernel below if you are on CM12s/CM12 (5.0.2). Or the alternative is to flash the 5/15 nightly (5.1) or wait for it to be rolled out OTA.

Nice! Thanks for the link. Flashing now.
I had only mild touchscreen issues so I'll see if it gets rid of them.
I've never had touch issues thus far, but I am a bit disappointed at the fix. Although I do notice a better touch response, the fix isn't a fix and is a workaround. PPPreferences has a huge battery drain (com.qualcomm.display) which basically, like I've seen written somewhere, means they're just keeping an app open to recalibrate the screen constantly.

Not for me. Nothing changed in terms of battery usage with today's nightly. Also it isn't even listed under Apps in the battery screen on my device.
This app is only used for post processing (Live Display) and has nothing to do with the new firmware.
I was suffering from pretty bad heat related issues, all gone now.
I just flashed Boeffla-Kernel for CM11s. I can definitely tell a difference. There was one app that I could make it jump when swiping up or down and holding it toward the bottom-middle of the screen, no longer have that issue. I also constantly had trouble with it "clicking" things when all I wanted to do was scroll up or down on something. Have not had that issue since flashing.

Hmm that's pretty interesting then, but I don't seem to be the only one reporting a difference in the CPU time of something which includes the Qualcomm services. We'll see with more usage though.

I had the stock 1.61.401.7 unlocked through HTCdev, rooted & installed exposed. I reverted to the stock back up I made (before root/exposed) but the OTA install is not working. I also reverted to stock recovery (only found 1.61.401.6). The attached image is what I get in the stock recovery after I get the red exclamation image. Any idea what am I doing wrong? do I have to re-lock the bootloader first or is it because of the stock recover being for 1.61.401.6 instead of 1.61.401.7?

Is there an improvement of the performance after the OTA? I'm interested in buying this phone to upgrade my M8. I read some reviews says that M9+ it cannot handle high frame rate games very well. even on switching to other apps on multi tasking.
Are this issues were improved after the latest OTA?
Thanks!

Better stay with the M8 if you're in for gaming. The OTAs didn't change much related to that, and I don't think it's possible. 2K screen and the GPU of iPhone 5S is not meant to be paired for high demand gaming, and no OTA will change that IMHO. For casual gaming still okay.
Antutu seems to score lower. But the ui multitasking seems to be improved overall quite a bit.

Thanks for the info. Maybe I'm still upgrading to M9+ since I'm not into gaming. What I really like on HTC devices is the boomsound. I am tempted for the QHD and fingerprint sensor for M9+. For those features, still pretty good to upgrade to M9+.
What really confused me to buy is because of the news that HTC Aero will be coming soon. It would not feel great when you buy a new one then suddenly, another one is released.

Well I asked in the other thread about size and was told 1,35GB. That is roughly the same as the 5.1.1 update was. Seems quite big if they only are going to patch Starfright 2 and some minor tweaks/bug fixes. But then it can be that they fixed core bugs that needed updates to several system components or just that this is the final update for the Z1 line and thus they want to release a complete firmware.
It's over 1 GB because on XperiFirm you only get complete firmwares.
I bet the OTA notification on our phone will not download and install over 1 GB. We will only get the updated files. I don't know what size it will be. Never did an ota on my phone.

Ota is generally around 200 to 400 mb on my z2, when i got update over ota {5.1.1}
My impressions so far:
- Stagefright fully patched
- Sound seems to be louder using movies app and music app, but I don't know if it's a placebo.
- Video playback is smooth using hw+ in MX player, before that version the playback was hanging when you seek using hw+
- performance seems to be improved, since I don't have noticed any hang since the first boot
- Battery seems to be better, I only get 2% drop while testing AnTuTu and I get around 39k, I don't really care about this number since the general performance seems to be really good
- I am noticing a bug while using phone dial, It don't sound when I press the number keys.. But this is an insignificant detail for me
- Camera seems to be a little faster too
- I haven't noticed any new feature until now
- I'm from Brazil but I'm using Hong Kong firmware version which is fully compatible with the Brazil frequencies and seems to be debloated

Camera lag
Hi guys, I'm testing right now the DE prerooted zip with clean install. It's quite good it's not heating so much, I would say similar to KK. Battery drain.. can't say yet, probably still not as good as KK but good enough. The sound quality seems different (worse) to me, using really clean sounding MH1C and can hear a difference between KK and 5.1.1. But I can't stand the camera lag, found out that if I set low ISO (50, 100) there is no such lag but with higher ISOs deffinitely is and quite significant! Do have this lag too?
Waiting for the C6903.
Did anyone try any modes on the new firmware? Like 120 fps or 4K or call handling? How is the wifi? With latest firmware, mine had degraded. How is the wifi reception on the new firmware?

"Futher improve to perfomance" so kernel mods changing and modifying a few codes for better perfomance which take no memory is also a placebo effect. Gonna have to explain that to all the kernel and tweakers developers in xda.
This is not a new OS or OS upgrade. Doesnt need to be 1gb to get better improvement on the phone. U can try the update and see. Im loving the speed.

I reboot every morning so I get the nice, fresh "fastest" possible speeds, at least until standard android and samsung bog downs occur by the end of the day.
But, if your gut says you feel a difference, more power to you.
About Kernel mods here. They take existing base and tweak specifically for speed at a trade off of potential stability. Google and Samsung, neither are well known for real speed improvements. They shoot for stability over mass numbers of devices vs speed. Their professional developers that know and work with the code day in and day out would nothing more than love to tweak it and massively optimize it for even their own devices but they have to march the corporate line.

I got the update and now I can't login to my phone. It wants me to put in the password (just once, then I can use fingerprint again like before). But I never setup a PIN and now I can't get into my phone!!

That happened with me while on MM. It took 3 factory resets from recovery before it let me in without a pin.

If u look back when this phone was release a year ago and all thr updates tmobile has done it s now. Completly different phone, speed and perfomance wise. Phone also doesnt hit up like a toaster like when the phone was release.
Is funny u said to go and check every update. Cause if u do the same here in xda u are going to find out most member talking about improvement, battery life and other thnlings. But i guess all of them are wrong cause is all a PLACEBO effect. If samsung didnt care about perfomance why is the U version the fastest and better version. This is why almost everyone is waiting on the nougat U version including me.
Feel sorry for u that u have to restart your phone everyday. U most have a lemon GS7 edge. I never have to do this to feel my phone fresh and fast.

This is pure BS! When I searched the web for this issue I found that this has happened before and as far back as at least 2 years ago!!
I mean, this seems like a straightforward fix from Google's side...Have the updates NOT trigger PIN requirement if there's was no PIN present. For anyone that's more familiar with such things, am I oversimplifying it here? It's just that easy isn't it?
I guess i will be updating in the am.

at a "whopping" 51Mb, that's not a lot of updates. The "faster" effect is probably placebo.

Seems like a small change, but I am getting better standby time. Left the phone unplugged all night last night after the update, a wipe of the cache, and a full charge. Woke up today it still had 96% battery left at least a 3% improvement over before the update.
I'll run the test again tonight to see if I get similar results. It's a pretty nice improvement if it stays that way.

I havent updated yet. Just want to find put more information if fix or break anything
UPDATE: just did the update. Phone feel much snappier and fingerprint works much faster. It was already good enough with nougat update but now is even more accurate

Probably felt faster simply because you restarted the phone as part of the installation process.

No I leave ambient off. I have my Gear Fit 2 so there really is no need to have my display on.
