How to discover the abundance of tasks on Meizu How important it is for Flyme account, how to ensure yourself with the help of Flyme or what is at risk of buying a “gray” Meizu. Reset Meizu M3 Note via update mode
The proprietary Flyme shell, installed on Meizu, contains a lot of brown chips, so we just can’t take a look at the OS.
In the Flame shell, it is created that is not the most convenient for the user, because it does not break the floor into pieces, and, in addition, there are additional menu items for working with drone-free interfaces directly from the application. There is also a manual display brightness control, which the operating system vendors installed in early versions of Flyme operating systems.
File manager
Right from the Explorer start screen, you can launch programs or programs that are sorted by category, as well as create connections to a local network, access internal memory, or open files on the memory card. A really cool feature is the ability to see a number of files at a glance by swiping your finger over them, and a nice bonus is the ability to create a file manager before creating archives and working with them.
If you are not a fan of connecting your phone to your computer via a cord, then in this OS you can create a portable FTP server from your gadget and transfer files via a browser or a special program on your PC.
Launcher
It’s easy to understand the dimensions of this shell: a desktop grid in 4x5 format with an additional panel at the bottom, and there is also no adjacent menu - all programs are installed directly on the desktop. Another advantage is that many standard programs are rarely vikorized, and that stink was taken to hell.
By pinching the screen, you will open a special menu where you can swap desktops, add new widgets, or change wallpapers.
Keyboard and additional programs
In the first versions of the Flyme OS, the printer used a keyboard, but then switched to TouchPal, which is a powerful dictionary, you can click on the menu of symbols, as well as a large number of themes and different settings . TouchPal is more functional and useful for basic bike users – sometimes it’s easier to get ready-made solutions than to restart the bike.
In addition to a standard calculator, which no one sees nowadays, there is also an engineering calculator, and also a converter of various quantities and currencies. The cool thing is that exchange rates are regularly updated via the Internet, so you will always be correctly informed about the value of the currency.
Contacts and sign up
At first, you may think that the dialer in this OS is very simple and equipped with only basic functionality. This is partly true, but there is no function here, such as a quick transition to the “Select” section or SmartDial support. But it’s not so simple - in the operating system you can block unwanted calls and SMS, you can record calls in manual or automatic mode, or use these functions for other contacts.
SMS notification
The main feature compared to competitive operating systems is the ability to indicate SMS as read immediately on the notification page. This may be handy if you often remove one-time verification codes and don’t want to receive the annoying “one” at the end of the notification.
Browser
The Flame design is laconic, sophisticated and simple, supporting reading mode (the right-hand icon is on), as well as night and full screen. The main page is decorated with icons of the most popular sites among the merchants, and there is also a search row and an address row. At the bottom there is a log of recent sites, and above that there is a row of navigation, which also includes moving back and forth by the sides and switching at the head at the end. From setup, you can go to the folder of your favorite files, update the page or open the version of the page for your computer.
Design
The Flyme operating system allows customers to install one of thousands of different interface themes, fonts for the launcher, wallpapers on the desktop and much more. The standard Flyme theme will be installed on your smartphone out of the box, with classic icons. In Settings you can change the settings for displaying icons.
Photo gallery
Singingly, you visit the gallery inclusively to review the photos and images. If you have become the lucky ruler of Meizu, then try to get to know the gallery better. The main screen displays divisions in photos, divided by the camera and other folders - photos from Instagram, screenshots, etc.
Plus, if you have a Smart TV at home, you can upload photos directly to the TV screen with the additional option of broadcasting from the photo gallery. Here is all the information about the parameters of the photo and how it was collected.
That's not all. By clicking the “Change” button, you will be taken to the menu to change the number of parameters:
- On the first tab there are filters, as many as you can post on Instagram;
- Adjustments include parameters for brightness, contrast, white balance and much more;
- The tools also provide a variety of possibilities: insertion of arrows, text, shading effect, brush for painting and smearing personal information;
- The remaining button is responsible for the function of cropping a photo and wrapping it. Here's a neat trick - you can wrap photos right at the gallery with just two fingers.
Camera
The functionality of the camera, on the one hand, is simple and reasonable, but on the other hand, there are a lot of different parameters, such as the shooting mode (button at the bottom right), manual adjustments, turning on the level or the grid. Those who love selfies will benefit from the function of taking pictures, those who love sports will benefit from the possibility of enhanced exercise, and those who love nature will benefit from the macro garne. A plus is the ability to shoot directly from the Gif format, which allows you to easily edit such videos with ease.
Music and video player
Flyme's video player can support the mkv format, and also supports almost all possible video codecs, including audio tracks and the ability to create subtitles. Also here is such a good thing for rich koristuvachiv vіkonny mode.
Following tradition, Meizu has a lot of respect for music – the media player here is as functional as possible. First of all, it supports any kind of playlists – FLAC, CUE, APE and others. In another way, here you can easily sort songs both from the main playlist and from different folders. And thirdly, there is no need for a hard equalizer with a lot of adjustment, which allows you to adjust the sound as comfortably as possible to suit your needs.
Safety
Here is a bunch of basic functions:
- Clearing memory and smittya. This includes removing redundant files, clearing the cache, removing messy items from programs, and also searching for the largest files in order to clean up the space on the device as quickly as possible.
- Speed up your RAM. This utility closes programs that are not currently running to save RAM.
- Blocking spam. Unnecessary SMS and calls are blocked here.
- Allowed for software security. Here you can have maximum control over the skin program and access to various functions of the smartphone.
- Living management. Here the user can set up an autonomous robot device for himself or enable the robot to run certain programs in the background.
- Look for the type of viruses. This is a practical antivirus for Meizu.
Gesture control
The new device Maze has a system of mobile phone interaction with a smartphone using gestures. For example, the bottom tap turns on the backlight of the display, swiping right or left on the off display switches songs in the media player, and swiping up unlocks the device. You can adjust these and other gestures by going to the “Special capabilities” item.
Visnovki
Of course, the Flyme shell becomes more beautiful over time - more functionality, more capabilities, more comfort. The advantage is also that the parts and disadvantages in it can still be quickly deteriorated - take the replacement of the built-in keyboard with TouchPal. Which Flyme OS features do you like best?
Meanwhile, Chinese Meizu gadgets are gaining unprecedented popularity due to the fact that many people are beginning to actively purchase smartphones from China. The Flyme service is also very rich, which is why it is important to connect with these devices. Most of the Flyme functions are comparable to the options of the iPhone or Android-based devices - for example, data synchronization, a system for locating a lost phone. Ale really gloomy service Flyme is built on more. A wider range of options and special capabilities will significantly make the life of your ruler easier. However, unique tools can play an evil role with the user of a smartphone, if you add devices to an unverified store.
The anti-inflammatory system of the gadget is no longer given any respect, which is a mouthwash. This function should be used quickly if you want to protect special information. This article will tell you how not to end up in an unacceptable situation.
Special capabilities
At the time of registration, you will not only be able to synchronize your personal data with your PC, but also find your phone: ROOT rights for more detailed settings will become a welcome addition. A full range of functions will become available from now on, if you do not particularly view the cloud recording from the Meizu song device. You can choose to enter a password and a unique word in the web interface or device. If the user connects a cloud recording to the Meizu smartphone with the help of Flyme, there will be no problems. This, for example, instantly cleans up your phone, gives you easy access to your contact book, deletes your personal data, looks at your calls, etc.
In the remote section, you can edit the note or add a new one. In addition to the list of tools, there is also a whole range of functions: bookmarks in the browser, review of data entered into the calendar, and saving passwords for a Wi-Fi hotspot. Access to the synchronization menu. Those who know the concept of ROOT rights should appreciate that they can be enabled as a primary option without voiding the warranty.
The “anti-inflammatory” function is of special respect. Whether you have an iPhone or an Android-based device, you can easily erase all data on your Meizu smartphone without losing any connection to the Flyme account. There is also a hope for a lost gadget: if the GPS receiver is active, the data will be accurate. An additional function of the dark service is the function of permanently blocking the phone - either the program or the program will not start until the password is entered. It is impossible to re-test devices in such a situation. The only additional thing in this situation is the function “without notification for those who know”, which is poured on top of the window. The language is not obligatory.
And perhaps the best option for such a situation is remote camera bathing. The front camera takes a photo without any signals, and you will see who has stolen your device. Then you can save the photograph, destroy it and take it to the police. If, after all, a theft was committed, then it is necessary to check if you are suspicious of the camera.
It is enough to activate the loud siren to ensure the respect of the evildoer. This option can be used if you are unable to find Meizu at your doorstep. However, the downside is that the siren cannot be silenced. Only in two weeks will you get into it yourself.
Disadvantages of the lousy Flyme service
However, like any other service, Flyme has few shortcomings. One of the most expensive ones: those who primarily provide insurance services to Chinese citizens. That may be due to difficulties with mine. A relay can help you. Another unacceptable problem will be the fact that once you leave the cloud account, there will be a global cleanup of data, erasing of add-ons and their saving. Music files, photographs and your interests will be lost. When you exit the cloud account from your smartphone, the interface asks for permissions to enter other actions, otherwise, if you disable the cloud account from the web interface, everything will be done automatically. The third problem lies in the fact that Flyme servers are located in the Celestial Empire. He will have to do a little checking to get his power supply off.
The fourth disadvantage is that, since the device does not have access to the limit, any commands sent to the substations cannot be output. However, when connected to the Internet, Meizu terminates all commands sent to it previously. This problem occurs among unscrupulous sellers. They can immediately link the phone to their account account, after which they have virtually greater control over the product. A wide range of tools will not be available to you.
However, despite the disadvantages noted earlier, the Meizu creators managed to develop a device with a key function that will ensure the safety of your data. It is not necessary to use the functions of the Flyme service, but you must register to ensure that you are a legitimate user, and your phone is not tied to another cloud account.
Registration with Flyme
To enable a number of unique functions, you need to create an account record in the Flyme service. If you have one, you may be able to connect to a Meizu cloud account. You can remove the official oblikovy record by going after the request. Next, you need to fill in the registration fields with your real email address. poshti. An activation code will be sent to this address.
One of the most exciting new products at the end of spring and early summer 2016 was the Meizu m3 note smartphone, which at a reasonable price offers a range of possibilities. We would like to take a serious look at the device's shell, Flyme OS 5.1.3.1.
All screenshots and descriptions are of Flyme OS 5.1.3.1G, which is based on Android 5.1 and runs on the global version of Meizu m3 mote
Screen lock
This region has a tradition of gathering information that appeared at the curtain. There are no special possibilities here: if the leaking finally supports Swedish operations (State “Posta”, official client Gmail, Play Music), then they will appear here, so the notification will appear either by opening the program, or by take them by swipe. Here you can launch the camera.
In this case, the lock screen will be less functional than stock Android, and the throat will be known, for example, there is no problem here. Until then, Meizu had never been unlocked using a pattern key, only a password or a fingerprint scanner.
The settings also have a “Guest Mode” item, which can be launched from the lock screen. To start on the password entry screen, you need to enter a different code (1234 after registration).
In this mode, users have access to the stock security program, and the device can also block the operation of the dials from this position. The first launch takes a long time, about 20 seconds; subsequent launches of this mode will take about 3-4 seconds.
Work table
Meizu has gone the way of iOS when it comes to the logic of the interface, so there is no list of installed add-ons, everything is displayed on desktops. Before speaking, the standard calendar icon also took on a unique twist from the Apple system – the date on the label corresponds to today’s date.
Meizu m3 note
To organize order on the desktop, there are folders, apparently, without being separated by too many programs in the middle - we were able to place 38 icons in one folder, then the process of dragging the shortcuts into the collection.
There can be nine working tables, each of them is designated by a letter of the Latin alphabet, and the first screen is designated by a booth icon. A quick transition to desktops is also available, for which you need to click on the letter of the desired desktop.
After pressing for a long time on an empty desktop, the customization window opens. The first item “arrange” allows you to quickly move icons and widgets between desktops, but does not allow you to move the rest. Then, as soon as you add icons and the device becomes afraid, they appear behind the mesh (4x5 for cleaning).
The “Widgets” and “Widgets” tabs allow you to change the screensaver on your desktop and select widgets accordingly.
Personalization
The appearance of the desktop can be improved by adding the “Personalization” add-on. There are third-party ones with custom icons, trellises and fonts. Vibir majestic:
Before speaking, you can install icons for third-party software, or, if you want, they can be enabled in “Settings” (item “Personalization”).
Standard
Meizu
Multitasking menu
When you swipe the bottom edge of the screen, the task menu will open. In some programs there is a window function - the screen is divided into two parts, it looks the same as in older versions of the TouchWiz shell. Unfortunately, not all programs support the function. A similar implementation is available in stock Android, but the Chinese are the most advanced in this market.
The list of running programs is presented with cards, between which cards are moved by swiping up and down, you can swipe the card right-handed or left-handed, the program can delete the list and get rid of memory. If the final date is deleted on the card, the program will be stored in memory (the OS will not be stored in memory). It remains visually indicated by the appearance of a small lock icon called programs. At the very top of the list there is a “Clear all” button for clearing the memory, so that you don’t forget to clean up the memory.
Curtain notify
The information on the top panel is functionally identical to what we see on the lock screen. In the morning, a point will open where you can block this program, remove the icons in the curtain, or set a special priority so that information about this program will be on the top of the list in the future.
The notification panel is located next to the “Menu” item, where you can always block notifications, allow them to activate the screen if the smartphone is not lying next to it, and also change the status bar that has received indicators.
More notice, the Swedes have been expanded, with one swipe you can download the first 4 jumpers, and if you swipe down again, a new list will open. Items can be swapped: when you put them on the toggle, the icon is added to the table, after which the user moves it manually (the same way as moving icons on the desktop).
Tin
“Customize” - “Special options” - “Wake-up” has the ability to customize gestures available from a locked screen, starting from waking up the device and even before starting the program. The rest is implemented smoothly, since you need to check the fingerprint scanner and password.
For example, we attach the “C” gesture to the activation of the “Calculator”. When the symbol is displayed on the locked screen, the device vibrates and unlocks the lock screen. To actually launch the security program, you need to access the scanner or enter the password, otherwise the OS does not inform you about it.
However, if you have assigned the activation of the light to the gesture, the sleeping area is immediately activated without turning on the backlight of the screen.
Smart Touch
A software feature that allows you to select different parts of one menu. When the function is activated, an element that is similar to a trackball appears on the screen, which means touching, clicking and swiping. SmartTouch supports locking the screen, the “Back” and “Home” functions, as well as other actions.
The actual usefulness of the function is dubious, but once it is clear that for some reason a single physical button no longer works, then it is entirely possible to justify the creation of this software element.
Incorporated programs
Most full-time programs convey asceticism: a minimum of possibilities, a minimum of fine-tuning, a simple external appearance. For example, “Calendar” is, in fact, not just a third-party software, but “Google Calendar”, although Agenda is not the only screen that is important for most users, so there is no particular reason to install alternatives.
The “Gallery” is quite scanty, but it only shows pictures and supports albums – that’s enough for most. The “Alarm Clock” program really includes the well-known functions of the “Alarm Clock”, including the stopwatch and light hour. The conductor is as simple as a traffic jam.
“Calculator” found a place not only for engineering solutions, but also for a currency converter. Handily. "Korisna" provides relief and less stagnation in everyday use of functions. “Reply” and the dialer are as simple as possible. In the rest, you will be pleased with the search for contacts, which includes equally entering both names and numbers.
Entries in “Notebooks” can be divided into groups (notepads), put into them with different design themes, highlight pictures, remove voice recordings or paint. And the axis of the folding format is absent here, which, however, is not critical for a simple notebook.
The new “Dictaphone” not only allows you to record sound, but also allows you to set labels for the next hour right during the recording process, and when the button is opened, go to the marked sections of the hour.
Well, how can the Chinese firmware be without “Security”?
When using the “Post” add-on, it will have a modern appearance and a minimum of functionality. But the worst news is not that the correspondents cannot process mail normally, which is stored on servers, but it is simply inappropriate for two-factor authentication. As a final note, I basically couldn’t connect the email screen until I had enabled one of the best security solutions available today.
The browser is globally close to most of its competitors, so it is possible to use the function Without images, when activated, all messages will be opened without images, since the browser does not have Wi-Fi connections. Who can be honored with the “Night regime”.
Night mode
One button
Meizu m3 note has eliminated just one element of interface control, which in practice turned out to be extremely manual: touching the button has replaced the “Back” button, pressing is equivalent to clicking on “Dome”, and the list of running programs is displayed by swiping to the bottom the edges of the screen are uphill. If you press the button, the smartphone will be blocked. Absolutely, the PP adequately works with this system of actions.
However, there is one serious drawback - the button cannot be customized, which means that launching Google Now (and that is, Now on Tap when updated to Android 6.0) cannot be clicked on, for which you have to trim the icon on the desktop. There was every need to add adjustments to “launch the collection of additions before the onslaught.”
Battery
When configured with Flyme OS, it has such capabilities as increasing the productivity of the device and optimizing life - useful functions will help protect the wasted charge, and first turn off alert notifications, for example, on ich.
Localization jambs
If the smartphone has a global (international) version of the firmware installed, the Chinese root is not available, but it will fail. For example, at the first stage of registration of the Flyme cloud record. Can you guess where these fields are?
Otherwise, what should we talk about in this information?
And you can also find out from the generated calendar:
I can’t say that there are a lot of such mistakes, but the very fact of their obviousness will put you in a stupor, and even figure out what kind of operating system in such cases can only be done using a scientific method.
Verdict
I would like to highlight the extreme cleanliness of the interface - minimalist flat icons, calm colors and neat fonts harmoniously fit together one after another. In this case, the interface of the installed software in some places slightly deviates from the formal, neat style, sometimes confused by large elements, sometimes by non-standard fonts, sometimes by just a heap of elements.
The additional functionality here is not fantastic, but one cannot say that it is stingy - for the inhabitants here there are more possibilities, no matter what, but for those who stick their heads in, who like to install Cyanogen or Xposed, there will be little adjustment. On the other hand, in life there are more frequent speeches, and a lot of endless digging in adjustments.
