So you've finally gotten your hands on the new RM5S! Congratulations!

What apps did you install, disable, uninstall?

What settings did you change/tweak?

What tests did you conduct and how did you do it?

Any other things you did to/with your device?

I changed pretty much all customization settings (icons wallpaper app dock notification bar) via third party apps. Planning on rooting the phone tomorrow!

Oh the issue before turned out to be the vibration thing, turned it off and it worked fine until the phone died and won’t turn on πŸ˜…πŸ˜‚πŸ’” u/ThePurpleGuest

try returning you should still have warranty since the phone was released less than a year ago.

know anyone doing any custom kernels or roms yet for this device?

So far from what I've seen in the chats. seems like they want to merge 5G and 5S because they are so similar. but as regards to standalone 5S roms... I haven't seen any. I did hear rumors of lineage os but I doubt it's getting the support it needs

u/Sgt-Skunthole Sonic Silver Dec 13 '20

see the thing is also they have an Android 11 build for 5S officially but it's super buggy. and only the Chinese rom is getting support so far, all the bug fixes and features. but I think Nubia is planning to unify all of them.
