China android phone problems - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have recently bought an android phone from chinavasion.com, the android market (google play) calls it "Alps Neobox" but i don't think it really has a name. Everything works just fine except for 2 minor "inconvenients" i have found: the accelerometer is not properly calibrated and i can't find any way to calibrate it (i already tried with Gps Status but nothing changed). The second inconvenient i have found is related (i think) to the icons management and it gives me this kind of display with the android robot icon and the com.* name:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
does anyone have any solution to any of those problems?
The Android version is 4.0.3 and it uses a 3.0.13 kernel.

I managed to solve the accelerometer thing by calibrating it via recovery menù and i figured out that the icon problem is related to the fact that those apps are installed on the sd card and which is mounted after the launcher has already loaded. You can close this topic.

[Q] OS services keep using my data

Hi all.
I know that there are a lot of similar topics, but I cannot find any solution in them.
I have a i9100 device that keep increasing my data usage.
I noticed about this a couple of weeks ago, and I tried to understand what app keeps downloading/uploading data, discharging my battery very fastly.
I downloaded MyDataManager to "keep an eye" on data usage:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I have also disabled Google Play's autoupdate.
How can I solve that problem?
Technical specifications:
- Samsung STOCK rom
- Kernel Siyah 4.1.5
- No extweaks
- No changed profile
If you need something else, just ask!
Thanks, anyway
EDIT: Nevermind, wrong section.
Please, close this thread, I'll repost that in the right section.

Help guys.

But, 4sqr was going.
How could i fixing this problem.
Come on guys
You find almost no help here. We don't support knock off devices.
Also be careful with apps from the black market they tend to contain data miners and keyloggers for storing and sending passwords. Not to mention they can record everything you do on your screen

[Q] Apps that use camera like QR readers have corrupted image with Jelly Bean ROM

I just installed the Jelly Bean ROM on my Galaxy Player 4.0. I used this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2333769
It works great, performance is like triple what it was before (my Gingerbread was seriously messed up), and it runs very smooth. The normal Camera app works fine too (camera support was preventing me from messing around with other ROMs in the past that lacked it). The problem comes when I use other apps that access the camera. I tried Google Goggles and Microsoft Tag (to read QR codes) and in both of them the image showed up like this, making the apps worthless:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It's not a huge deal, since I mainly just use the Camera app, but it's annoying not to be able to use these apps. Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas?

Alcatel pixi 4 "6" defect: Black screen after flashing a custom ROM

Hello guys, My phone's screen stays like this (see image below) every time that I turn it on since trying to flash a custom ROM. The phone is fully operational(receive messages, calls, etc...) the touchscreen seems to work despite I can't see anything. I've tried reinstall the stock ROM several times but nothing seems to work. I'll feel glad if somebody could help me with this issue. I ain't a native speaker so sorry for my bad english.:crying:

No emojis showing up at all.

Hello, so I had an issue with my phone (OnePlus 6) where it'd be stuck on fastboot loop so I decided to flash the entire rom through fastboot with this :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/rom-stock-fastboot-roms-oneplus-6-t3796665
It all went perfectly fine, but when I started my phone and after using it for a while I realized it had no emojis. Okay, let me rephrase, there are emojis from Gboard etc but very few of them, if I type in "emoji" in google it's supposed to show many websites with the use of emojis except for me all I see is a whole festival of boxes with a cross on them.
I'm going to be showing you on attached pictures what it looks like from my oneplus 6 and how it looks like from my other huawei phone, first a pic from the huawei device then from my oneplus device.

I have no idea how to fix it and I've seen no one else with the same exact issue as me, if you have an idea on how it could be fixed then please help me .
