These smartphones will support Fortnite Mobile on Android
Fortnite Mobile on Android launches soon. Epic Games' website confirms that 40 devices will be supported at launch. Here are the devices it'll support.
Fortnite Mobile on Android is a long-awaited upcoming release of an already massively popular game. Since launching on Apple iOS, users of Android smartphones and tablets have been wondering when Fortnite would launch on their devices too. The Android release has apparently been delayed as we recently reported that it will be launching as an exclusive with the Samsung Galaxy Note 9. This exclusivity will supposedly last 30 days. After 30 days, Fortnite Mobile on Android will become available for all supported Android devices. If you're wondering if your device will be supported, we've got the list of supported Android devices taken straight from Epic Games' own website.
Navigation Gestures updated with better Nav Bar hiding, App Launch action, Android P compatibility, & more
Navigation Gestures by XDA brings iPhone X style gesture control to any Android device. We've been hard at work and our latest update brings a lot!
We launched our Navigation Gestures app a little over 3 weeks ago, and since our last update, we've been hard at work to address the overwhelming amount of feedback we've received. Our app, which was originally designed to be a simple gesture control app based on the Apple iPhone X's gestures, has since gained a lot of customization features. We're not stopping there, either, as a future update will allow users to create gesture navigation controls in the vein of the OnePlus 5T and OnePlus 6. If you're tired of all the screen real-estate that your boring software navigation buttons take up, then you should give our latest app update a try. It's totally free for all of the basic actions and settings!
The Huawei P9 Lite (SLA-L22) is Getting an OTA Update that Adds 3 Gameloft Games
The Huawei P9 Lite (SLA-L22) is getting a firmware update that adds 3 Gameloft games and security patches from Google. It's rolling out to devices now.
The Huawei P9 Lite hasn't received new software in a while, but rest assured that Huawei hasn't forgotten about it. We've discovered the changelog for an upcoming update that adds a couple of new features to the device. Along with Android security patches from Google, the firmware brings three popular titles from Gameloft. It's rolling out to the SLA-L22 variant of the Huawei P9 Lite, so owners should see over-the-air update notification very soon.
LineageOS 14.1 for the Huawei P9 Lite
LineageOS 14.1 based on Android 7.1.2 Nougat is now available for the Huawei P9 Lite. The ROM currently has some camera and dual SIM issues, though!
The Huawei P9 Lite is a mid-range smartphone released in 2016 that features the HiSilicon Kirin 650 SoC, and as such has not seen as much development effort as some other comparable devices using Qualcomm Snapdragon SoCs. This disparity is mostly attributed to a delay by Huawei in releasing their kernel sources, but nevertheless since the Nougat kernel source has been available developers have been hard at work bringing AOSP-based ROMs to the Huawei P9 Lite. Thus, thanks to the efforts of Team OpenKirin, LineageOS 14.1 based on Android 7.1.2 Nougat is now available for the device.
The European Union puts limits on how loud the headset music volume can be on smartphones released within its member nations. While a noble attempt at keeping people safe, some feel it takes things too far and ruins their music-listening experience. So, if you have root access on your Huawei P9 Lite then you can follow this guide laid out below by XDA Senior Member XeLLaR* to increase the volume level. This method has been tested on firmware versions B370/B380 of the Huawei P9 Lite.
Some devices have the hardware to do certain things, but are then hamstrung by the software. Huawei can have a number of reasons as to why they did that with the stock camera application here. Whatever the reason is, the Huawei P9 Lite's camera supports the Camera2 API and this allows it to capture RAW images in a .DNG format. You can get this with 3rd-party apps, but you can also follow this guide laid out by XDA Senior Member zgomot if you want to enable it on the stock camera application.
