Question Update(s) recommendations for a new GT 2 phone (possible issues?) - Realme GT 2

Hi,
I've read her about some performance/battery-life/heating issues that seem to appear with newer updates (ColorOS related?).
Will you recommend to NOT update the phone from it's original factory default release? Any other recommendations?
Thanks!

Well, my phone right now has a SOT of 5 to 6 hours. I am on the april 2023 update of RUI. I'm planning to switch to a custom rom(probably pixelos) when the bootloader unlocks, cause I have heard a lot of good things.

Any specific reason? I think 6 hours SOT is expected, isn't it? What do you mean "when boot unlocks"?

It refers to the bootloader, currently the servers to request the unlocking of the bootloader are down.
By unlocking the bootloader it allows you to modify the operating system that comes with the phone by default

Exactly what RinxTM said. The bootloader is currently locked, because the unlock servers are down. I want to switch to a custom rom because I have heard that it improves battery life and overall stability. Also, the variable refresh rate ACTUALLY works unlike RUI.

This is from the upcoming 13.1 June changelog:
"
Updates Dynamic Computing Engine to improve system smoothness, stability, battery life, and app experience."
Do you think it's worth waiting to see there is real improvement before trying a new ROM?

New OTA update (G870AUCS2CPB4)

AT&T just pushed out another update. We'll see how it performs. Still no 6.0 Marshmallow....

I don't get it why are they stalling
Somewhat dissappointing
The AT&T page doesn't even show this update yet. Somewhat of a mystery.
They just did:
Software update includes
Device security improvements
Disappointing...
i thought i saw there was a problem with 6.0 and not being to unlock phones with pin/ fingerprint after updating..

There's nothing disappointing about improved security when it comes to my mobile device.
For shame with that attitude.

Well, most of us are waiting for Marshmallow. We are almost the last ones to get that update.
However if this update makes you happy, that's cool.

Its pretty disappointing when every other major carrier in the US has released Marshmallow for the S5 weeks ago, and they're still sitting here dilly dallying with security updates. Fine security updates are good, but we want Marshmallow end of story.
Anyone care to share the update here? I have to use Odin, no AT&T account. Thanks.

It's too late. You are already a bad dog.
Its a little early...but based on some very heavy use yesterday...this update seems as stable as all the other Lollipop builds to date.
Based on what I've seen from other carrier flavors of Marshmallow on this device...about the only thing that Marshmallow is going to give me is the ability to sideload GoodLock and MAYBE better mem management in regards to suspended apps/multi-tasking. Its not like Marshmallow is going to magically give me 2 hours extra SOT and make me a ham sandwich or something...Lollipop builds have been stable, bug free, been delivering 4-6 hours SOT, relatively snappy performance and the ability to go many days without a reboot based upon my use...and I don't think that will change drastically with Marshmallow. I'll probably keep this device for another year/year and a half anyway...so it will happen when it happens.
Even though it is annoying that the locked bootloader is keeping me from root and the ability to modify a few things (like running AdAway and uninstalling bloatware) and due to the fact that I can't run Xposed on Lollipop with Samsung ROMS anyway...this phone on AT&T has been one of the most stable, dependable devices I've owned to date.

thanks for providing such information :good:
support for custom sounds was already in our phones.. btw thanks for info
Just to clarify, there are v8-9 otas for h2os but are mostly minor updates. So, Oxygen os probably will not update until oreo.

Just wondering they do not update until Oreo It's not like the world stops before Oreo . The minor update you are talking about isn't that minor it is the most important one a security update.
so based on that benchmark scoring Im guessing H2OS is a bit more optimized for speed and battery?

After being on freedomos for a while and coming to hydrogen i have to say this is actually insanely fast and well optimized. This is the best android experience ive ever had. Each singular percent of my battery depletes so slowly i actually got sick of watching it for tests. I have my own set of tweaks i enjoy using on kernel adiutor and franco kernel (which works btw) that i can get an hour of SoT in 5-6%. Very nice without all the google extras i do believe that plays a major role in the battery saving as well as Franco
How do I get Google play store to work also do OOS based kernels work ? For example blu_spark ??

What is the benefits of Oreo?

I still haven't revived Oreo update here in Thailand. When it is released, before I install it, I'm curious what is the benefit of installing Oreo? Note 8 already does everything it's supposed do, will this update make anything better or provides any new features?
having a locked bootloader.

significantly worse battery backup and lags and bugs here and there..and that's pretty much about it...
Surprise surprise. That's why I have stuck to 7.1.1 and rooted the device.
Every new update to any Samsung device introduces bugs and kills battery life. Personally it offers little advantage and I'm not the least bit interested in upgrading.
Why waste time changing something that works well just for the sake of it?
-New Lockscreen clocks
-AOD is now better optimised
-boots up quicker
-support for new bluetooth audio codecs like AAC
-gif support in Samsung Keyboard
-you can now restart the iris scan if ever it initally failed to scan by tapping an icon in the lower quarter of the screen instead of the status bar area
-MUCH better notification management system
Many more small tweaks that make the overall experience better!

No lags, bugs, or noticeable battery drain here, and I'd be the first to say so. Careful about 'reports'...half the time they've done something else like dirty flash, installed mods, etc. and blame the wrong culprit.

before i was on 7.1, i jumped to 8.0 and it reset my rmm state, waited around 2 weeks to get oem unlock option it didnt. and i am not going back to oreo for sure.

Ok but the problem is with rmm on your specific device model/region, not Oreo itself. I have a different model and OEM is unaffected by Oreo for me (oem unlock toggle is still there). People have rmm issues even on Nougat. It doesn't mean you have to upgrade to Oreo if course, but Oreo is not the reason for your issues.
I updated and have been seeing the lag. Deleting emails takes like 5 secs now after hitting delete.
Iris recognition is a lot faster.

For me, the key reason for updating to Oreo was support for the Sony LDAC Bluetooth codec. I have the WI-1000X and the MDR-1000X headphones and can now stream audio to these via LDAC, instead of APTX.
Apart from that, as mentioned by previous posters, notifications have received a major overhaul. Also, I have not seen any performance dip after the update -- I flashed the France ROM via ODIN, without doing a factory reset or starting afresh.
I am never far away from a wireless charging pad, so don't know if the battery life has gone for a toss after Oreo.
I think that people should be more careful when posting negative or unconfirmed issues, as other poster said, some people get troubles when dirty flashing or installing firmwares other than official OTA ones

Agreed. Bone stock VZW Note 8 here, had it since pre-order. Oreo update came today and so far it's only been faster with no issues. It added some nice Bluetooth audio options in Developer Options.
I flashed the official Oreo rom so I didn't do a OTA and it works fantastic for me.
Overall performance is a lot better
Features like PIP are great
Battery is better
Waaaay better notifications
And a lot of other small improvements.
I think people that have issues with Oreo simply did a OTA

Basically avoid all x.0 software releases.
Goes for every software...
Samsung is already testing 8.1 on the note 9 so I will just wait for that to be ported.
It will bring new features and much better stability.

Agreed, I've almost always had the same experience in the past. The bugs usually get worked out in x.1. Not much different with 8.0, I pretty much immediately went back to 7.1.1.
Been on Oreo for 11 days now. For the average user there is some noticeable minor visual change in the UI. Other than that the phone feels and performs about the same. Nothing has changed on my usage.

Root? Why?

I've been a rootoholic since the first HTC Desire (2010) and I've been lovin to improve every smartphone throughout those years. I believe that the reason for root have literally died. Since 2010, the interest in rooting and developing roms for phones that really needed it, vanished more and more for every year. The latest 4 - 5 years, developers have mostly only been interested in rooting flagships? People root for different reasons, privacy, debloating, theming, speed or all. In my opinion, the whole developing community have forgotten the real mission!
"Develope, root and improve phones that really needs it!" (mid range and low budget phones)
And look now!? To unlock a bootloader (on a phone that's perfect without it) we're suppose to pay for it? Not even an option to donate, like back in the days? No offense to you, the devs, this is probably just part of Xda evolution, and I need to catch up with reality. Just wondering what this community will look like in 2 - 5 years?
This phone (in my opinion) is perfect without unlocked bootloader or root!
V40 has it all!
And with the option to "uninstall" bloatware via adb, what's the point?
Well, some user's love to flash custom kernel while using the stock rom. Just like me

For me yes, specially when it comes to speed and you can tweak also the display settings to get rid of the screen burn.
V4A and kernel tweeks
Wondering
how much better can a phone like this get?
I mean, cpu speed is already fantastic, and sound is extremely high quality (Neutron)!
Is there anywhere I can read about this? Progress and experience so far. How big was the difference? And so on...
I could imagine to underclock and disable some features I never use, to save battery...

We disabled a few of the throttling stuff that LG put in the software and it's way faster now and along with FDE.AI Magisk Module the battery is also lasting a bit longer.
Nice!
I'm on Sprint!
Will they detect my root?
Fully functional modem/signal?
Will I miss out on any functions after debloating all sprint stuff?
Can I reverse, go back to the original rom?

Your original rom would be on Slot B....but you would still have the original rom on Slot A unless you update to US unlocked Pie....
Tempted!
Root
Being an old rootoholic, I've kind of convinced myself it's not really necessary anymore, especially on a phone like this. But after digging into the threads about it, I've reconsidered...
So, after some resistance, I'm tempted to unlock bootloader and root
Just a few questions:
Slot A and B? Is it possible/complicated to activate "the other" slot (dual boot), or is it just there for backup and update?
Is com.lge.rctprovider and other spy and spam apps still there?
How exactly is the remote screen thing done? Do I need to install something, and how do you pay the fee?
Will it be possible to remap the assistant button?
If I'm not wrong, Qualcomm just block specific bands on carrier's requests, meaning that all bands exist in the chip. So I wonder, can this be unlocked?
How is the signal/reception on Sprint? Will all necessary bands still be there and fully functional?
Thanks!

After so many years with these phones, I've learnt that we would rather buy an old flagship but not a new mid-low range
Even u arent rooting it, flagship is usually much better as that's what your manufacture could do best at that time. Mid-low range was intended to be half-assed
Root is useful to install AdAway and Titanium Backup, even if staying with stock ROM.
Blockada without root sounds like it is not as effective as AdAway.
Ti Backup enables reverting to prior saved version of app when a newer version is faulty or inferior (happens a lot). Also debloating by freezing or uninstalling, not sure an ADB method offers all the options of Ti to debloat.
If V40 still has no way to unlock bootloader and root, without the Octoplus thing, I guess I'm stuck with V30+, which apparently means the dwindling stock of aging V30+ from dicey sellers on eBay etc., including lots of 1+ year old LS998 crossflashed to US998 and sold as "new". Li-Ion phone batteries have only a 2-3 year life....
...
There's currently no way to bootloader unlock the V40 (I have the US non carrier "unlocked" version). Guy on Telegram is ignoring my message. Therefore, root does not appear to be an option.

Well people root so they can remove throttle from manufacturer nd to tweak the phone so it can be at its best for the current cpu/gpu along with custom roms. Root is not needed nowadays except for those because better processors that you wont really need root for normal to performance usage. Well thts my oppinion for the op
The question should be why not to root. The answers to that are far less. Than why to root. Because of the endless possibilities

Meh, Im at full stop at Android 10.
No way I'm going to 11 or 12 (even if I could) on my N10's.
Forced internal memory encryption, scoped storage, excessive restrictions for trusted 3rd party apps have turned Android into a green lame Apple.
What's left to like?

They all have their quirks and minor glitches. At this point I've pretty much either work them out or found work arounds.
So, I'm kicking back now and enjoying the device instead of witch hunting.
Because of my familiarity with the system, trouble is easy to spot fast and usually easy to fix. This is important with malware; the faster it's spotted, the better the outcome.

It seems better across the board but it will take time to evaluate the camera and new features under different conditions etc
In a few days I'll know enough to evaluate stuff like battery life and daily usage to see if all the apps I haven't installed and configured yet work smoothly
But out of the box and according to the benchmarks it seems like an improvement
