Can someone tell me is it better A5 (2016) or J7 (2016)? I like the design od A5 more, but the flashlight on the front camera on J7 is more neccesary for me. Which one is better, if we talk about camera, speed and performaces generally? Thanks

        Help guys pls. I dont rly know wat to chose. A5(2016) or Xiaomi Readmi Note 3 http://www.gsmarena.com/xiaomi_redmi_note_3-reviews-7863.php
        Yea i know XReadmiN3 has better specs. But i want that my phone has good camera
        (ps everyone say that a5 2k16 has awesome camera for price range). And i rly like that glass on the back of a5 2016 like s6 on back its realy cool. But still 2 gb of ram destroys multi tasking. And im that kinda guy. 2gb of ram is to little. It can handle most of the games. But cant nova 3, asphalt 8. And a bit more hardcore games. And xrn3 can.
        And if we talk about note 3 i like it a lot. With 3 gb of ram and snapdragon 650 its realy good for multitasking and hardcore games. And camera on note 3 i almous like a5 2k16. So if you can pls say your opinions. And you can recomend some phones in this price range. I tought lg g4. And i dont want it... Battery sucks and not fan of leather back. Thanx. Recomend me some phones in this price range do.

                          yakuza, 11 Aug 2016can you give a tutorial? or share a link?Use online tutorials for rooting (at your own risk), for your specific model. I used Chainfire metod and flashed with Odin, NOT KingRoot, etc.

                          Know that if you root, you move the internal counter (may lose warranty) and if you update Android (by flashing, because with root you lose OTA updates), you lose root.

                          IMPORTANT:
                          1) Used "Root app deleter" for DEACTIVATE them, not delete in case something went wrong. So far, so good.
