Why do Snapdragon 800/801 phones have smoother scrolling than the 820/821 phones? by dhinged in Android

As I said, I seem to have skimped on some detail. A Snapdragon SoC contains quite a few things including the CPU and GPU. The 801 denomination contains krait 400s and adreno 330. So when you're talking about 801 vs something, you have to take everything into factor.

It's very often open to the public. The main halls have specific visitor times and dress codes that I would look up.

Good choice, any reason for the 5520 over the 9560?

I have the Dell XPS 13 (9360) and Dell Precision 5510 both running Fedora 25 swimmingly.

Both are i7, 16gb ram, 512gb SSD and QHD/touchscreen.

The XPS 13 is the top of the line Developer Edition

ConstraintLayout 1.0 is now available by ylameow in androiddev

I think it's because of reduced nesting. At the end of the day, the XML in CL should be a black box like .xibs on iOS. You can jump in there to quickly fix something, but you're gonna be in over your head pretty quick for heavier work.

You need to give up the XML editor if you're using CL, embrace the UI editor.

The problem is that there is no high end solution for apple, and that's an issue (for apple, and their users).

I had 2.9 second boots with Arch on an SSD (unencrypted). Since switching to fedora + dmcrypt that's slow a little but nothing crazy.

They've changed their cut a bit. It's now tighter around the thigh, which means they ride up if you've got larger thighs

They should release wallpapers from the source, trying to screenshot the youtube video just ends up in images with a bunch of compression artifacts.
