hi guys
has anyone tried a different rom than the one it comes with?
my poroblems are:
1 it has too many junk inside that you cant remove
2 it cant be rooted
3 some times it crashes
4 the battery takes 3-4 days from 100% - 60% and then 60-0 it takes like 2-3 hours.
please let me know if you have any alternatives better than the stock one.

Hi,
Yes, you can check at needrom.com and using SP flash tools to flash new rom. I think, there's also tutorial on How To in readme file in zip.
but I also wondering if there any other site or source(s) I can get this Lenovo a399 rom beside needrom.com.
I have a very 'nightmare' troubleshooting experiences now for this device Wifi connection, its connected but the internet speed went too slow ( took almost 1 hour downloading 1 MP3 file 5MB )
tried several solutions from everywhere including XDA forums, but nothing helped me so far. and I suspect this is must be something in ROM itself. Wish i could Port any other ROMs

Goophone i5 MT6575 ROM & 3G fix

Hello all!
So after much careful consideration I've decided to post this thread.
This thread is for all those people with the Goophone that isn't like the others. The ugly duckling - so to speak.
I purchased a goophone i5 from "efit" from dhgate.com after watching mayianjay's Youtube videos.
http://www.dhgate.com/goophone-i5-m...oid-4/p-ff8080813a071f7b013a594a682b5965.html
Unfortunately the phone WASN'T the same as mayianjay's and NONE of his rom's work with this particular model, even further I couldn't find a CWM or TWRP recovery.img anywhere on the internet that was compatible with this phone, so I thought I'd help out my new friends of XDA and provide you guys with as much information as possible.
The phone model information is as follows (according to Android System Info.apk).
Android Version: 4.2.1
CPU: MT6575
CPU Hardware: MT6577
CPU HardwareP1: MT6575
Resolution: 480 x 854
DPI: 240
Brand: MZ
Device: E939
Model:iphone 5
Now, if this is what your phone looks like then I have good news for you - as you are almost certainly wondering where to find a recovery.img - See the attachment below. You will need flash tools which you can downloaded here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/private.php?do=showpm&pmid=10599596, alternatively you can try using MobileUncle. For this particular model you just have to have the phone off before commencing the flash with flash tools.
The recovery image provided comes with TWRP and if it STILL doesn't work for you then your only other option is building your own - which can be found reading my dear friend yuweng's post here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1825722&page=1 - There are alot of tutorials on his post and you can learn much on your endeavor to flashing your phone :victory:
Currently I have been unsuccessful installing any roms as I get "assert failed:write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img")" when trying to install any ROM, which tells me that there are no supported ROMs for this device yet.
ROM's I've tried..
None from Colonelzap's blog work for this model

XDA-Goophone i5 Lite ROM with the 3g fix also doesn't install.
But fear not. I'll make my own rom fixes if I have too! If you need help with your Goophone I'm happy to assist. Although I haven't gotten quiet there yet I do believe I'm a stone ahead of many others. Also - I have a question to anyone out here who has fixed the 3g connection on the phone, How'd you do it?!
I will try

Thanks guy for the hard work.
I'm having no problem with my 3G connection out of the box.
But the GPS is not functioning at all.
All you need to do is edit the updater-script and remove those assert lines. That won't overwrite boot.img (which contains the kernel) but it'll allow the ROM to finish its install and you can make a try to see if it works or not. Maybe there's another way to flash boot.img...

Ah I see, I did hear there was a few GPS bugs but they can be fixed apparently, see that Goophone i5 lite rom thread I think this phone has the wrong 3G cell bands for my area (Australia VIC), Even though it says it supports it on the site.. :/ Looks like I'm doomed with the 3G Bug, I've tried copying the APN settings from one phone to another and all. Anyway no problem!

I also have this phone. (Goophone i5 which is MZ E939 model) and my 3G is stuck as well. I did the same thing you did friend - copy the APN's from my samsung galaxy which works perfeclty with 3G and APN's setting. When APN's appeared in goophone menu I was able to listed my GSM providers and I could choose this one I have SIM card inside. Neverthless during the connection I recieve "Unable to connect, try again later"
I did some tests using different apps and all shows that 3G 900mhz is working and is ON. But no success in connecting. It is really annoying when you have your smartfon offline - almost useless
I have the same problem with custom ROMs too. No way to install them - using ROM manager or SP flash tool. - always some error appears.
I tried to install the ROM then it say cannot find path to emmc something like that...
stock apk

Just reset to factory setting and it will come back...
I done that many times already...
I have the same phone too
I have the same one from efit, I replaced all apps in system/app by google apps by the following
GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk
GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk
GooglePartnerSetup.apk
GoogleServicesFramework.apk
rootexplorer.apk
Vending.apk
DOWNLOAD IT HERE: http://www.mediafire.com/?2o838cef8feakno
PS. I rooted the phone before replacing that, using MTKdroidtool
Now I see my phone is slower and the playstore opens but gives me an error when It installs some app (error code 110) which fails eventually.
IF some one can please give me the stock apps in system/app for this phone, I would appreciate.

I did the same mistake, someone please help me.
Ok after a bit of research it turns out, efit has given incorrect information about the phone, the phone isn't goophone, its thunderbird i5
Whoever has the stock rom on thunderbird i5 , just follow the guidelines from the link below

See image below, that's how you'll go to recovery mode, but we need a ROM to flash
atleast you won't stay on the apply logo

I got into the recovery mode of TWRP but nothing I can do...
And even funny is that my phone can't detect the SD card...
So even with a ROM also I don't know how to flash it...

Anxiously waiting for something, ready to donate as well
Anybody who blocked phone on apple logo or install wrong ROM or anything please try this solution:
wait till phones battery is fully uncharged then plug the phone to charger wait some minutes and press VOL - (minus) together with power button
After few seconds some menu will appears (more or less RECOVERY look like)
Choose CLEAR FLASH option using "MENU" button...
Phone should starts with factory menu and settings.
I did it about ten times and works perfectly in my goophone e939 or whatever it is...

lenovo vibe x s960 - no googla apps after auto upgrade?

Hi,
my 7 days old lenovo vibe x s960 just got auto-upgraded to android version 4.4.2 (vibeui_v1.5_1416_3_st_s960).
the new rom dose not contains google apps at all. i've tried to install gApps via recovery, but found out to my horror that the recovery is in Chinese.
so now i'm stuck with no contacts,emails,calendar and what not, but i do have a very stupid smartphone.
as i see it, i have 2 options:
1) find a way to change the recovery to english, and head on from there, or
2) find a way to install google apps & services back to my current version, and carry on with my life
any help will be greatly appreciated !
thanks,
Nir

[Q] Tecno Phantom Z Stock/Custom ROM

Few weeks ago, i got this push message from Tecno asking me to upgrade my device. Downloaded it & tried to install...
After getting this scary blank screen, tried to reboot. BRICKED!!!
I have searched the whole world, i still cant find either Stock/Custom ROM for my device.
I miss my phone... and i know there are many others who need this same ROM
Please, is there anyone here with a link to get it?
{Why: xda developers dont talk much about Tecno Mobiles.}

So kindly anyone with any idea or a link to any solution I will very much appreciate it. thanks guys.

Lava Iris88s

Hi Guys,
I have been going through a android mobile with out camera, and I have found this Indian brand Lava. Its because of my job.
I brought this mobile Lava Iris88s, and they are using an OS named "Star OS". It's soo buggy and I am facing random problems. The mobile was not cheap also. I searched the threads I could not find any help and this device is not added in XDA.
Is there any developer who can help with rooting this mobile with any stock based rom.

i already tried all those Rom's, its not working with the device. the exact build should be lava_iris88s_2_16_S207_WOC_18F08
actually i tried to root my device but somehow it ended in bootloop, so i downloaded stock rom from similar Android Rom Sites fro this device and flashed it with sp flash tool. that flashing rendered my phone screen into static noisy screen.
then i found a way to revive the phone by flashing IK.img & boot.img from lava iris 88s as instructed in this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/help-pls-lava-iris-88s-t3847396
but still there are some issues like slow charging, phone keep crashing, battery showing -1% even if it is fully charged.....
i believe an original stock rom could fix all this issue, unfortunately coudn't find one.
