Hey Guys I am really impressed about the device named goophone but in real according to the stock launcher it is a kuphone.
So first i can not image who this price is possible but good i accept
for only 70€ including dhl and some cases
So as second some information about this device:
Specs according to Shop: (dhgate)

Sorry for my not ideomatic english , i am german

Hello I have bought a goophone i5C or a kiphone i5C
apple logo at back (seems painted)
MTK6572/512M of RAM/ photo 2MP back
come with a rom which is a mix of IOS7 and IOS6
when I try a root method on reboot It Bricked so I need a dump or the original rom to flash it under SP Flash Tool
I have tried some Flash with SP Flash Tools with some device with mtk6572 with the same spec (MTK6572 1Ghz, 512 Ram, 4G Rom, graphic Chipset Mali 400MP, ...)
SP Flash Tool work but I have a black screen with a sound with start ...
If someone can give me a dump of your goophone i5C - Kiphone i5C It will be great
there is a tuto how you can do it

Great initiative, I received mine yesterday (gadgetdealer phone 5c-> same specs) I already lost a whole evening with mtk droid and sp flash tools. So far I managed just to make a dump of the current rom and noticed the kulauncher apk in there besides other non wanted apk's. But none of any threads is very clear of procedures and don't want to brick it.
For root: framaroot works (select supersu). Googlecalendarsyncadapter.apk 4.2.2 was required to get de calendar working with Google. And i had do update youtube manually to get it playing videos.
Update: I tried to flash it with the Goophone i5c rom you can find in several other threads. I am not really sure if it is compatible but so far I haven't been able to start the actual flashing... it seems it cannot find the device. Already tried by putting the phone in bootloader mode... no luck (but perhaps it saved me from a brick phone). Does anybody found a way to get a better notification bar that shows icons for messages like whatsapp, gmail,play store... ? I already installed the SystemUI.apk from Goophone i5c.. it's compatible but does not change anything.
Sup guys
I just received mine one day ago and I noticed that is going veeery lagy. I just started to fight with it. If I make any progress, I'll share my results with you. Btw This thread is a great idea!!!

Hello to everybody,
I have received one phone as described (bought on DHgate).
I have root it with farmaroot: ok.
But, I can not change the launcher, I have the launcher kuLauncher.apk. I have tried with different apps: home switch, home manager, ... but any of them can erase kuLauncher as the home launcher.
Does anyone reached to change it?
I´m in the same situation, I have a KUPHONE but this model includes GPS and 3G (WCDMA - 2100 MHz). The stock ROM has several mistakes and it is very laggy. Now I have added a problem after testing 2 different SIMs: I can´t start up my smartphone with a SIM because after enter the correct PIN, the screen gets frozen and I can´t access to the system. Without SIM it works OK...
I rooted it without problems in order to make work the GPS, but I was not able to make work the 3G (I had selected WCDMA in engineer mode and It did not work) .
There is no info about this phone on internet, the codes of Goophone do not work, and I am reading that the ROMs do not work neither...
Please I need a solution! A ROM that works well on this device.
Thanks a lot in advance, :good:
I have this phone as well and would love to put a new rom on it or change the launcher. Any progress on this? I will say there are menus when holding the volume buttons down and the power button. But that's mainly recovery and some add on side loading stuff. Then there's another menu but it's in full Japanese and I can't make any of it out.
Hi guys, I recently bought a GooPhone i5C, rooted it fine with VRoot, tried to update the ROM over the weekend, and ended up bricking my device.
I had taken a backup of my GooPhone at work, and also at home. I tried restoring from a stock KuPhone ROM, but this just left my phone on the Apple logo (had to take the phone apart to get to the little button near the power switch that kills power to the phone). Once back at work on Monday morning however, I restored (loaded the scatter file then hit Download), and my phone started working again.
So in short, I have uploaded my backup if anyone wants it, although you may have to use MtkDroidTools to 'prepare' the files for flash, and then use the scatter file that this creates. I pretty much just registered to post this, so I can't post the link to the backup just yet (PM me or something?).
help! i deleted kulauncher...

Hi guys i deleted the kuLauncher.apk and now the phone bootloop on Apple logo.
I've found that we can use adb when the phone boot in factory mode but i can't find the kulauncher.apk file on the internet.
The phone is rooted but i can't have root shell via adb.
Days ago i had a backup of the rom whit MTK tool but if i try to flash it whit SP_flash tool it return me error 8038.
Anyone can help me?
Edit: the phone came from dhgate, if you wait (bad internet connection) a week i can upload my backup for you.
Ps: mine doesn't have the external sd-card installed but near the battery there is a free micro-sd card slot

Clean rom
In my quest for a clean rom i came on this one: needrom.com/mobile/ px-c5s5 . Any chances it would work on our devices? Or could it help to mix up with our original rom... Just a thought.
My biggest frustrations with this phone.
Hi, I also bought this phone (for my daughter with her money) without knowing what it was. I believe it's a kuPhone due to a folder 'Kustore' on the device and the microphone hole which is very close to the left bottom screw and further away from the audio jack than on real GooPhone.
Anyway, this phone can be bought very cheap (65eur, free shipping ) and performs well.
However I see a general problem with signal reception:
Wifi: have to be in very close range to the router, about 5m maximum.
3G: rather slow, speed test reporting max. 1Mbps.
GPS: slow locking (several minutes) and not very precise, but still usable.
FM: worse than my other devices inside the house.
Other remarks:
Audio jack only fits 3 pin headphones, 4 pins with microphone do not work well enough to be usable (low volume, shallow sound).
Camera is only 2 megapixel and show green shading under artificial light and some angles. LED flash very weak, does not help.
Microphone mute is activated accidentally when calling (by your cheek pressing the screen at the mute icon, proximity sensor does not seem to work as expected.
When you go to recent call, the caller app crashes.
512 MB memory seems to fill easily, phone blocks and need to cold boot by pressing HOME+POWER buttons together for 10 seconds
Apart from these I do not see any of the problems mentioned in this forum, UI is response and working very well.
I'm prepared to share my ROM if this is of any use to someone, but he has to explain me how. I never did such a thing.
If anyone can help to improve signal reception, welcome!
Hi guys,
I bought a similar phone but I don't know if is agophone or a kuphone.
There is any way to understand what I bought?
There is a way to change the recovery boot in English, now is in Chinese and is not easy to manage

hi guys I solve this problem by setting my date and time, and the phone work fine now!
"I can´t start up my smartphone with a SIM because after enter the correct PIN, the screen gets frozen and I can´t access to the system. Without SIM it works OK..."
I've seen this on my phone too, but it's been a while ago and I was able to fix it. It's working since. I don't remember what I did to fix it, but it was not something difficult to do, so don't despair and try a few things.
bootloader
Anyone succeed to flash a boot loader on the kuphone?
Hello sorry if i posted in a wrong place im new here
This is a romanian phone and i cant find so much infos about it
Here are its spec
Smartphone Dual Sim
3G: UMTS 900/2100 MHz; SIM1 or SIM2
HSDPA+ 21,6 Mbps
4", TFT-LCD Display, 480x800 px
Cortex-A7, 1,2GHz Dual Core
Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean
3,2 MP, Panoramic
RAM 512MB
Tethering prin Wi-Fi si Bluetooth
Baterie 1700 mAh
Bluetooth 4.0 cu A2DP si EDR
so i rooted my phone using MtkDroidTools.exe it worked but i also found that in running apps is a thing named MtkLogger
and i tried to delete it using root app delete and i might accidently deleted something else from the firmware now when i try to turn the phone on it is stuck on the Allview logo i tried to acces download mode or fastboot mode but it only puts me in recovery 3e mode could someone tell me what to do?
got the phone 5 days ago
boot-loop allview a5 duo
Hi. So, I have a romanian Allview A5 DUO with android 4.2.2 stock. I had the phone for about a year and a half with no big problems except occasional random shutdown. A few days ago i woke up to a dead phone; thinking the battery is down i put it to charging, but when i tried to start it, it got stuck on the logo, which i found on the net to be a bootloop, if so .
Now the phone is not rooted and i don't have custom recovery of any kind installed.
I tried reseting to factory default, clearing the cache with no effect. When connected through adb, the device appears listed with "adb devices" command. "adb sideload <filename.ext>" also works, but seeing as i don't have root i can't install anything.
Any other adb command returns "error: closed", so I can't boot into fastboot or anything else (like unlocking the bootloader, turning on the debugging mode or disabling signature verification as someone already suggested).
The only custom rom closely related to this phone that i could find is this
w w w .mediafire. com/download/u3rujuasvfs50j7/F2_signed_deodexed_by_shovik.zip
Also i found that "Allview A5 Duo is the romanian equivalent of the Gionne P2 and Walton Primo F2", quoting some guy on a forum.
That's about all the useful information that i could find about it, so my question is whether the phone is bricked or if can do something about it and what? Thanks for your help

My device doesn't have any CWM, TWRP bla bla custom recovery, as Yet its not available for my phone. I rooted my phone, Installed Xposed Framework with Terminal Emulator, successfully done. installed Flashfire (No, Not Flashify), Nandroid Backed Up. Then Flashed Dolby Atmos Successfully. Installed Viper4Android successfully.
Next Day, I uninstalled Both, and tried Flashing XtremeMusic Mod with Flashfire. But I am Bricked.
As I have no custom recovery installed, (Actually I even can't access to stock recovery too, tried different hardware key combinations, took help from Internet also, but no luck. Sometimes pressing these keys make be stuck in boot loop only. Recovery opens when I use some rebooting apps but then stuck in No Command screen).
After bricking my phone, I went to service centre, and they flashed Stock ROM and everything fine again. Then at home, I tried to restore that backup I made with Flashfire with Flashfire but flashfire showedan error message that Unable to decompress the backup. rebooted and Again Bricked. No custom recovery installed so I can't recover to normal state again. Bricked Again within 1 hours. My brain is not working now.
if flashfire can't restore its own nandroid backup,then why there is a backup option available?
At every week, I brick my phone, Visit Micromax Care and Fix it (They do not void warranty even after root). No custom recovery/ ROM available for my phone, where lower end devices like Micromax Bolt A65 has custom recovery available.
Now my phone is bricked, no recovery available, so how to fix it?
Well. I got an unofficial stable TWRP 2.8.5.0

reflashing your phone wont save it from locking up again when it connects to a network where which you have saved the privacy protection code and it has a high chance to have an incomplete firmware that would result to camera operation failure. i think there are four types of stock rom of CM J1plus specifically made for each network provider. a security feature Cherry Mobile did. but renders their units a piece of junk when software fails and the Consumer fault of switching SIMs. i have nine CM j1 plus on my junk box. all working but locksup when SIM inserted. i have almost successfully flashed two but both lost its camera functions, one has the front cam working but the rear is not detected, the other has the rear cam working but reddish image and disabled front cam. both from different firmwares.
---------- Post added at 04:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:19 AM ----------
here's the only flasher that works for CM J1plus and MT6850's units
http://spflashtools.com/wp-content/uploads/SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1628_Win.zip
and look for a suitable firmware for you at 4shared
GSM website are greedy for their files which i cant blame them for....
MT6580__Cherry_Mobile__FLARE_J1_PLUS__FLARE_J1_PLUS__6.0__alps-mp-m0.mp1-V2.34_vz6580.weg.i.m
thats the file name that has complete files i dont know if it will be ok for the camera of your unit.
theres a trick in that file it has no file extension but it can be extracted using 7zip
http://www.4s.io/file/sPWQTrAVce/Cherry_Mobile__FLARE_J1_PLUS.htm
thats the working rom besure to choose format-download option.
and dont insert your sim or connect to wifi after flashing... it will first give you an invalid imei. enable dev option in setting and enable usb debugging. then disable app privacyprotection then reboot
after reboot try to connect to wifi DO NOT UPDATE FIRMWARE FROM OTA it will boot loop. i dont know the reason but even cherry mobile has that problem warning their customers. new flashing has no root its even oem locked and cannot be rooted.
