according to that xda thread there's some performance and radio improvements from using AOSP 5.1.1 instead of the MUI one

2016-09-22 06:46:45 UTC  

Overall I've got the following impression of this firmware:
1. Switching from 3G -> 4G is more reliable than on any MIUI rom. First of all I don't loose internet connectivity during the switch (with MIUI I always do) and secondly it founds 4G networks almost instantly, and for MIUI it took minutes.
2. I've tried to flash open gapps stock - it basically made them unusable (was unable to create account), but open gapps mini worked ok for me. Though got a problem with black home screen and very slow phone until I've changed home launcher back to trebuschet.
3. Battery usage also increased in my use cases. I usually got 25% battery/8h, but now it's more like 35%/8h. Though it may be related to the fact that all messangers, etc syncs as often as they want, and with MIUI I never was able to properly receive all push notifications, etc for most of the apps.
4. According to some benchmarks, it seems that this rom is a tiny bit faster. (geekbench results increased by 7% for example). Though that doesn't really matter for me.
5. I usually have more RAM available and apps killed less aggressively.

The thing about messenger sync is concerning. Would that just be because play services wasn't installed?

2016-09-22 06:54:55 UTC  

I think he's saying that the push notifications were shit on the original MUI

2016-09-22 06:55:00 UTC  

MIUI

2016-09-22 06:55:25 UTC  

the new AOSP ROM has worse battery life, he's saying, but he thinks the battery life is worse because he's actually getting all his notifications

2016-09-22 06:55:41 UTC  

but he also doesn't sound like the most scientific motherfucker

2016-09-22 06:56:00 UTC  

so I'd say your mileage may vary on that account

2016-09-22 06:56:14 UTC  

but it looks like it's super easy to unlock the bootloader and flash AOSP whenever you want

2016-09-22 06:56:37 UTC  

so I'd say get it with the OFFICIAL WORLDWIIIIDE and if it sucks dick, just flash the AOSP

2016-09-22 07:00:29 UTC  

Well I was just gonna use the MIUI one. 'Cause lazy.

2016-09-22 07:00:38 UTC  

But I might change if push wasn't working

2016-09-22 07:00:41 UTC  

ya i mean, use that one

2016-09-22 07:00:43 UTC  

and if it doesn't work

2016-09-22 07:00:48 UTC  

then install AOSP

2016-09-22 07:00:51 UTC  

ez

2016-09-22 07:02:15 UTC  

Worst case scenario you have an excuse as to why you get no messages/texts/calls

2016-09-22 07:18:37 UTC  

is this gud?

2016-09-22 07:20:37 UTC  

I dunno man, I've never used a Bluetooth speaker I'd call good

2016-09-22 07:20:45 UTC  

listen

2016-09-22 07:20:57 UTC

my headphone jack on my phone is warps

2016-09-22 07:21:27 UTC  

Bluetooth is the only thing i can really use

2016-09-22 07:21:45 UTC  

it got warped from getting run over by a car

2016-09-22 07:22:22 UTC  

Nice you were on that iPhone 7 shit before it was cool

2016-09-22 07:26:14 UTC  

Man looks like they give that shit away for reviews

2016-09-22 07:26:33 UTC  

Message the seller and see if they'll hook you up on exchange for a review

2016-09-22 07:27:20 UTC  

But ya I mean as far as Bluetooth speakers go, there's not really any reason to pay more than that, cuz they're gonna sound awful and annoy the fuck out of everyone around no matter how much you pay.

2016-09-22 07:33:30 UTC  

You could just get a USB DAC

2016-09-22 07:33:41 UTC  

And plug it into the USB port of your phone

2016-09-22 07:33:52 UTC  

And then have actual awesome audio

2016-09-22 07:33:55 UTC  

For the same price

2016-09-22 07:34:11 UTC  

As long as you're doing the iphone7 thing

2016-09-22 07:34:21 UTC  

And then it's still good next time you upgrade

2016-09-22 07:34:47 UTC  

Burr-Brown PCM2704

2016-09-22 07:38:00 UTC  

Or just a generic USB sound card

2016-09-22 09:02:00 UTC
