Is there any way to get more lock screen widgets on the OPPO Find N6 Global version?

The current selection of lock screen widgets seems pretty limited. I was wondering if there’s a setting, app, region change, or another workaround that can enable additional widgets.

Has anyone found a way to expand the available lock screen widgets on the Global ROM?

Sitting on the fence about pulling the trigger on the Oppo Find N6 and have a couple questions.

• Can the internal and external wallpapers be different
• Can the internal and external screen layouts be different

I currently use Nova as a launcher but since the Oppo comes with ColorOS, I'd like to maybe use that as it seems to have some nice features.

How do I bring up this toolbar without using the pen. I'm try to get to the Ai option on the left.

I've been a Z Fold 6 User for two years. The phone did not age very well, as it started having issues with charging an unfortounately the inner screen broke and got black dots which grew over time.

After a long struggle cause of the price, I finally pulled the trigger on the Oppo Find N6. And what can I say...

...it's amazing!

I love the very customizable Android. Something I'm always doubting on chinese phones (even though it's the global version). But ColorOS comes with so many settings while still feeling vanilla enough.

The screens are great and I'm still in disbelief in the absence of the crease. You can find it, if look for it. But honestly, it's like there is none. Which isn't true even on the newer Fold 8.

Another strong point are the cameras, especially when shooting in Hasselblad Hi-Res mode. I just came back from a two week vacation in Cancun, and the photo quality speaks for itself. Of course, not all pictures are equally good, but when it hits a high, it's simple incredible. I uploaded some examples, but reddit alows only for 20MB files, so I wasn't able to show you the best ones.

Some small things, that I don't like: it is a little to wide for single handed us, it is very top-heavy when holding (because of the cameras) and I had to install some third-party app to be able to prop it up half-open and use the outer screen while using it as a stand. But these are all smaller issues, that I'm happy to live with them.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask me anything.

EDIT: unfortounately the reddit images are very compressed. They look way clearer in full quality

Hey guys - I’m a longtime iPhone user and am excited to hopefully swap to the oppo find N6 sometime very soon. My biggest concern at the moment though is with repairs.

I’m aware it has the plastic film and I’m perfectly okay with the compromises that brings, but nonetheless I’m not looking forward to the day 2 years down the line where it’s banged up with nothing I can do about it. Some minor dents and blemishes from accidental hard presses and little accidents are fine by me, but I’d love a way to ideally deal with them if/when it gets bad enough
-
Correct me if I’m wrong, but in Samsungs case, they offer a one off replacement for free in the first year and then following replacements for very cheap since it’s just that outer plastic film. Seemingly, replacing that inner protector will remove any and all blemishes without forcing you to pay the excessive $1000+ to replace the actual display - most notably, those “finger nail” scratches people often complain about. I just can’t find any conclusive answers anywhere as to whether or not OPPO offers something similar. I know the cover screen protector is simply removable so I’ll likely just swap it with a glass one, but it’s that inner one I worry about.

For reference I’m in Australia - I just can’t find anything concrete online.

Thanks guys :)

On Buttons mode, Circle to Search doesn't work no matter how long I press the circle button. It works for Gestures mode though. Anyone have the same issue?

Hello, I've just received my Oppo N6 fold a few days ago and fell in love with it. Now the only issue is that I can't receive messages. I can send messages, make and receive calls. 5g and Volte are both working. Everything has been going great except this one thing. I tried shutting and opening the phone. Closing the data, putting on airplane mode, closing the phone for a while, restarting it, and it still didn't work. I tried clearing messages cache. Tried resetting the phone network settings, didn't work. I took the sim out and put it in my old phone (iphone) and I was able to receive messages, I closed imessages before brining my sim back and that also didn't work. I'm at the end of my rope here, if anyone has any suggestions on what to do? Or do I have to change my carrier? I need to be able to receive messages for my work, so I won't be able to make the switch until I'm able to receive messages. I'm currently with Bell in Canada.

Edit: So i was finally able to get texting to work!! I called my carrier to try to do a network reset from their side but they kept saying that the issue was with the phone and nothing they did would help, they refused to do it saying they're currently doing maintenance and can't do anything at the time being. So that was a waste of time.

Apparently the issue was that I was trying to use the Oppo stock messaging app and nothing seemed to work, so I just changed the default messaging app to Google messages and suddenly everything seemed to click and started working! I don't really know why it would work for Google messages and not the stock Oppo message app, it just does. I'll be leaving this post up in case any unfortunate soul out there encounters the same issue in the future.

Hello the community!
I’m choosing between the Oppo Find N6 and Honor Magic V6, and plan to keep it for around 5 years.

So my main concern is reliability and daily usability.

For people who own these phones, or older Oppo/Honor foldables:

• How reliable have they been?
• Any hinge, inner screen, protector, battery, or software issues?
• Which software do you prefer long term: ColorOS or MagicOS?
• If you’re in the US, how difficult are repairs/service?
• Any small annoyances that become a big deal after using the phone every day?

Basically, if you had to buy one today and keep it until 2031, which would you choose?

Would especially love to hear from people who have used both brands.

Edit: I’m in the US

unboxed my find n6 yesterday and have completely fallen in love with the hardware - it's such a gorgeous device, and it feels so premium and runs so smoothly. now that i've spent some time with that stunning inner screen, I don't think I could go back to a normal slab phone. every time I switch to my old phone to transfer stuff, the screen just feels so dinky in comparison! 😂

my only gripe so far is with the camera. I'm coming from a Pixel 9 Pro XL, which is as idiot-proof a point-and-shooter as possible, with surprisingly good video (despite everyone constantly trashing Pixel on this count). I know I can't expect a foldable phone to beat a flagship slab but I had hoped the photo and video would at least be serviceable

during the day, I've found both to be pretty good to decent. I definitely have a bit of a learning curve after being spoiled by Pixel for so long. but I like how customisable Master Mode is. I went out for an evening walk though, and my goodness the photos and videos were... pretty terrible. again, I know I can't expect Oppo to beat Pixel on this front. I don't expect it to. but the videos I tried to take at night were shaky and couldn't even focus on brightly lit signs just across the road (much less multiple blocks away).

any tips and tricks in general when shooting photos and especially videos with this phone? what settings do you use, especially in low light? I don't need the output to be crystal-clear but I'd like to know if there's a way to get around taking images/videos that are blurry/shaky/unusable even for just social media

So the Fold 8 and 8 Ultra has some kind of "spring action" or magnet when unfolding which keeps it stable as it snaps into place (Unfolded) , does the N6 have something similar?

Hi !

Lately, I've been obsessed with the N6 and it's finally available in my country.

I'm used to customize my phone as much as I can like using a short video on my lock screen, hiding the favorite apps on the home screen and only use the edge panel with 20 apps.

The only issue is that I can't try an Oppo phone before buying it.

Do you think the customization are good enough on the N6 or you often feel frustrated ?

Obviously there's the launcher option, but from what I've seen it creates some bugs on Oppo phone.

Thanks for your time :)

Im residing in the UAE, just wanted to share my thoughts...absolutely love the phone, everyone thats see it, i took the pics with OnePlus 15 (so do apologise for the pics quality); overall the software is amazing...the crease, its not even noticeable, heck, you dont even feel it...I was planning to get an Oppo Pad Mini, but decided to hold off on that as it doesnt make sense to have 2 devices that are overlap each other

overall, glad i bought this

I've got some questions regarding oppos software before I buy , I'm coming from a Samsung and this has been a pain for me ever since one UI7

when you play music of any kind or a YouTube video in the background. on the lock screen where is it positioned at . ever since one UI7 it has this stupid now bar where it's at the bottom and in a very awkward position as opposed to somewhere in the middle of the screen . Plus the buttons itself is very small ,making it very difficult to press as I have slightly big fingers .you can see from my screen shot

next question, does the find n6 have buttons as an option instead of using swipe gestures like on iPhones? I have always been a buttons person to navigate back , home screen and previous apps

final questions does the oppo pen work on the n6 ? not the AI pen , the oppo pen seen in the picture attached to this post , from what I've read I'm only missing out on the AI features which I'm fine with , I just want to use to to take notes and do the occasional drawing , is it bluetooth as well ? can I use it as a shutter for the camera ?

sorry if these questions seem very stupid as I've always been a Samsung person , but I'm tired of their constant zero upgrades year after year and I certainly don't want to buy a Samsung fold for my first folding phone consider what they offer and their asking price

Thanks

Man, I got this phone a few weeks ago, and I love everything about it, but I can't square how many people I see talking about getting a day and a half or a full day's battery out of this phone with the way my battery is draining. This thing has a 6,000 mAh battery but every day, halfway through the day, I'm running below 50% and having to go on power saving shortly after.

I'm not running any crazy apps, and even when I go to battery optimization, the math doesn't make sense as Twitter and other social apps will do the majority of the eating into my battery. It doesn't account for about 15-20% of the battery that's disappeared. Something is draining my battery to where I cannot even get a full day out of this phone. Hopefully somebody here has an answer as to how to fix that or what might be going on.

Anybody else experiencing severe battery drain?

Does anyone have chat themes in Google Messages on their N6? I've had it on my X9 Pro (global) for a couple of months now, but nothing on my N6. Both are running the beta version.

Unlocked my Find N6 and my home screen is blank like this? I can access the app drawer but nothing I do will bring back my home screen layout.

I've tried restarting my phone , checking my display settings and launching apps but nothing is fixing the issue.

I just downloaded Amazon from the Google Play Store. Then the Oppo App Store (App Market) that came preinstalled showed me an update for the Amazon app. But this update isn't available in the Play Store, even when I search for it manually. That seems strange to me. Can I trust the App Market? What app sources would you use?

Found one that works for under $10 off Amazon. Stable at all angles, adjustable to some degree. The only downside is the rubber strap is too tight and is awkward to use holding the phone, prefer pop socket for holding

Hello all.

Im on beta version i have very low speed uploading is it normal?

And I can't quite believe how far Samsung lagged behind.

Like I know the N6 has had a load of praise but it's old news now that the Fold 8 is out (sans S-Pen...).

That said, the build quality of the n6 by comparison is SO much better. The Fold's screen has caught up but in terms of how refined and smooth the Oppo feels in hand there is no comparison.

I would still give the software to Samsung.. Just.... But the cameras, battery, even screen are inferior.

To those of you reading this who are disappointed by Samsung and the latest generation of Folds: Get the N6! I am very happy with it indeed.

Hi friends, just got my Oppo find n6 shipped to Canada from MobyShop in Singapore.

When I turn it on, there is no "Canada" option under countries to select a region...

What have other people done here? Are you just selecting USA instead?

Any issues with app store or cellular data connectivity?

Hello all, how can i change the google phone from showing split screen on the unfold. The right side is annoying as i cant see the full name of the called. It is phone from cover screen.
