First of all I would like to apologize for not so perfect English
I have U8650 and i would like to make this topic general topic for it. I know there are few topics but there is no much info in them.
I have made same topic on croatian forum for phones so i think it will be better if its on xda because there are much more people that are good in cooking cracking etc.
So lets begin
Detailed specifications can be seen on the LINK, however, the battery is 1400mAh[/ B] and not 1250 (i have sent email to gsmarena to change it but nothing hapend...)
ROOT and the original ROM
After playing with the phone I wanted too root it, after a good deal of trouble, and around 40 readed topics (without overdoing it) I came up with some knowledge, of course the problem is that the phone is currently on only few markets. (spain, croatia, turkey, australia and china i think)
To root U8650 you should flash it with original Rom, Spanish devices dont need original rom to root dont know why it is but it is
ROM
It is necessary to download an official ROM
LINK
After you download it unrar it and dload folder copy to memory card
Path should look like \ dload \ update
to flash device you need to
turn it off
remove the battery for 5 seconds
put the battery back in
press the buttons "VOL +" + "VOL-" + "ON" (all three keys at once)
and will start automatic firmware upgrade
for 3-4 minutes cell is debranded
If you get error not found firmware that means that you did not put the firmware on the SD card like you should (I got it a few times) just off the device and repeat the procedure.
root
After flashing unbranded firmware we can throw at root
software needed for the root LINK
This is similar to debranding.
download root file
Put it on SD card
turn off the phone
remove the battery for 3 seconds
Press "VOL +" + "ON" (without the vol-)
When you open the "bios like" menu use the volume keys up/down to select the update from memory card called root
after this procedure just reboot the phone and you have rooted phone
UNLOCK
My wife is on vip network so I had need to unlock cell
Recommendation for Tibor Szabo's

contact the man, he tells you to pay € 13 at [email] [email protected] [/ email]
Send him mail with the payment for approximately 12 hours with you (he said 2-3 days al always come to 24h)[/SIZE]
if this is forbiden on xda i will remove it
If you have any questions please ask, this all is wrote on xda and some other forums i just put all together
[B]Do not think i am responsible if anything goes wrong I have done in exactly those steps and everything works normally. Everything you do yo do at your own risk.[/B]
So: D after a slightly longer introduction with u8650 came the day to put Custom rom.
Of course, for custom rom you will need root thus described above tutorial.
After puting custom rom phone is like 20% faster
few main features
Integrated flash (load all ads from the flash) loads test flash from Adobe i didnt test it much more because yesterday i put custom firmware
new driver for the camera from turkcell that means 5MP camera resolution
Better battery life
overclock processors at 780MHz (you can set it manualy)
Here is the complete list of modifications that is taken with [URL="http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=262489"]LINK[/URL]
In principle, this entire tutorial is taken from [B]Zadkyn[/B] and translated becuse he is hard spanish guy nothing is on english he is not very good at answering questions but thanks to him we have custom roms and all the improvements.

I put 1.5 version because it has corrected a couple of bugs.

So here is tutorial
What you will not learn from linked topic (and I found out by sheer luck) is that you need to install drivers and custom "bios" to be able to put custom rom
So first things first
You will need to do procedure in this topic [URL="http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=256095"]LINK[/URL]
First download the driver for Windows 7 [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/?3bvp3p42t4iqwt2"]LINK[/URL]
So these are the drivers that you install and run you will have a screen with two options press instal drivers
If you have XP and these drivers dont work download this [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/?20qkr711ceuna0n"]LINK[/URL]
I have W7 so I leave to you if this is working for xp (it should work because no one has yet complained )
The second step is to download this file [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/?k421vgl3xy1fgpa"]LINK[/URL] unzip it and run Instalador.bat
You have fine hacker green screen and bunch of Spanish. luckily it doesn't interest us. Go to the next step and that is putting the phone in Fastboot mode.
The third step unplug the battery cell out/in pressing VOLUME - (or the volume down) and the power button and hold for 10 seconds.
it will show you only the Huawei logo and it should only show you that.
Step Four Connect the mobile phone with the USB cable, wait until computer detects it and after a few seconds go ti fine spanish green screen and press any key
It will flash "bios" of the phone it should be ready in a minute or two there is no hurry.
then reset the cell and you should have a fine new "bios".
Check this by turning off cell battery out / in and press the Volume + (volume up) and the power button for 10 seconds.
It should appear with orange letters like from the picture
[IMG]http://postimage.org/image/2d31ltan8/[/IMG]
After you have fine new "bios" you want to put fine new rom
The first step with this rom download [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/?8qd05qhv5flhips"]LINK[/URL]
The second step is to put the zip in the root of your memory card.
The third step going into the BIOS mod So turn off the cell battery out / in the volume + power button for 10 seconds.
You get orange letter menu now navigate with the volume + and - and with the power Buton you confirm it.
The fourth step choose the factory data wipe, then wipe the cache and then advanced wipe devil cache (not the exact name but you will seen it)
Each time when you choose wipe you need to confirm it, always navigate to yes i want to wipe.
Fifth step Return to start of the BIOS and select the custom recovery and navigate to the zip file called zadkin and select it.
When you choose it will start to flash for me lasted about 4minute when it's finished, reboot the system and if everything went well (and there is no reason why not) you will get the boot menu with zad logo.
For first time cell loaded few minutes so patience.
After that you have a nice Costum rom that is faster and more economical with better battery life stronger processor and better camera
If you have questions feel free to shoot.
The same as in the first part of post you do all on yours risk and I am not responsible for any problems and errors. I did everything according to these instructions and I got what i wanted.
[B]CODES[/B]
codes for the service menu
[B]*#*# 2846579 #*#*[/B]
code for the info on your phone
[B]*#*# 4636 #*#*[/B]
All of this is wroted on few forums and i just wanted to put all in one place on the most visited forum for android (xda)
Also i would very like if someone with more expirience can read this tutorial and suggest something.
one more thing that i left out is RAM limitation and i hope to get some answers about that.
also if this helps someone feel free to thank me
Best regards
just flashed your custom rom without problems. its amazing what people can do..!! it seems based on the yoigo firmware and you have english and spanish as languages. everything you need is included filemanager app2sd etc. i like it very much.. thanks.
edit: could you kindly tell what the flashing of the bios (with pc) exactly is for?! thanks
If you dont flash that bios you cant wiPe devilk cache and you cant instal modified rom so basicly puting new bio is must for moded roms
It will be great if someone else can try this
As for wiping the data, there was only one thing possible to wipe. everything else was just a line of "NO" without option to change it.
I now have like 3 programs running in background thats cool... and of course its cool that many programs are removed that cant be removed otherwise (like documents2go trial)
But thE stock yoigo firmware is good too... It already comes with the possibility to install apps to SD u dont need extra program for that
EDIT :and i just come back to phone.. i left it on charger over night.. and its in the orange BIOS MODE !!!! so it crashed i guess ??? bad
EDIT2: Couldnt access 3g internet even tho i had the right profile .... will test some more
Unofrtunately the custom ROM has still a lot of bugs, be careful :-(
yeah its BS... i am going back to original yoigo at least there i can make it install all aps to SD automatically .... this hacked firmware cant even transfer most new aps to SD..
i hope i will have no problems cos of flashed bios...
thanks anyways both of you
edit: 2 more bugs.. adblock dont work (some java error crash) and the 11mb adobe flash cant be copied to sd or removed at all
out of 27 apps (a few downloaded by me) 7 can be copied to SD and 20 cant
is there anyone who tested cyan mode for this phone ?

Didnot work on U8652
12/14/11: I tried the rom upgrade on U8652 ATT fusion and received "install error' after unpacking.
Any suggestions?
12/15/11: I successfully installed the 'recoveryclockmod' after finding the proper android usb driver for winXp - 'pulse drivers'
then installed the custom rom. But the phone details on the installed custom rom says its a U8650 model not U8652.
Thanks OP
Thanks OP
I followed your instructions and installed recoveryclockmod and cyanogen_u8650-benru on my U8652. Now I finally have root and a nice ROM to play around with. Thanks OP

unlockroot doesn't work, i tried the latest version (2.2) and i get the same error "Failed to get shell root !"
I have fried my U8650
I attempted a firmware update (official)... stage one completed... phone restarted and got stuck with a grey screen (no logo nothing just blank grey screen) all the soft buttons are turned on. constantly.
It wont go in to recovery, a simple touch to the power button turns it on and then it wont turn off unless I take the battery out.
I tried flashing with DC unlocker but my system wont detect it, I have installed the drivers provided at huawei site.
the phone was just a week old and am real pissed.
worst part, i did all that after reading this post
Anyone has any idea, how i can get it to work once again.

I didn't try this method and I'm only suggesting it because it sound like you almost bricked your phone.
You could try installing ClockworkMod recovery using fastboot (here is a guide for that androidforums.com/sonic-all-things-root/476263-root-guide.html just follow 1-9 ) and then flash the original rom for your phone (I found a list of stock roms here android.modaco.com/topic/350367-huawei-u8650 )
Dont forget to wipe data/cache before flashing the new rom ( this might be the cause for the state your phone is in now )
Update:
Got the drivers by installing hi space and letting it search for appropriate drivers. Worked real smooth.
Now Computer detects phone. But the instalador.bat keeps on searching for device :S
Stuck and stumped once again.
I want to believe but all I see is darkness... or a mildly lit lcd with greyness to be precise. thoughts, ideas anyone.
Thanks man. A ray of hope finally.
Only one problem.
My system won't detect the phone. When i plug it in via usb, it turns on. I mean all the buttons turn on, screen turns dark grey from dead black. But that is it. Computer wont detect it. I am running on windows 7.
Another system detected it which was running on XP but it wouldn't accept the drivers.
This is just a compilation of all the issues people face with the phones and the answers to those.
Q: Where can I find all things related to XOLO Play?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2365992
Q: Is there a custom ROM for XOLO Play?
All custom ROM's are listed in first page of this thread.
Q: My GPS does work properly.
There is an issue with the GPS on Stock ROM.
There are few things you can do to improve this.
Install GPS Toolbox from Play Store.
Make sure you are in clear view of the sky, Achieve a perfect lock before starting to move.
Q: I have bad signal reception.
This is a known issue with XOLO Play and most other Tegra 3 devices including the One X. There is currently no fix in the Stock ROM
Q: How to check Build Number?
Go to settings -> About Phone -> Build Number
Q: I have bad Wi-Fi connectivity.
This is a known issue with XOLO Play and this is partly fixed with the new OTA update (Build number XOLO_Play_S016).
Alternatively you can also try to factory reset your phone or restart your modem and phone.
Q: Games and videos are lagging.
If you made the OTA update, (Build number XOLO_Play_S015). then revert to Stock ROM (Build number XOLO_Play_S014) or perform one more update to Build number XOLO_Play_S016.
If you still face problem, then see below on how to improve Benchmarks score.
Q: I get low benchmark scores.
Remember that benchmark scores don't mean anything about performance. They are just numbers. Follow the steps only if you are willing to take the risk.
If you're facing lags in games, update to Build number XOLO_Play_S016 and still want better performance, then go ahead.
Follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2399411
Q: My phone is heating up too much.
This phone is know to heat up during heavy gaming.
If you want to reduce heat, use the OTA update(Build number XOLO_Play_S016).
Q: I want gaming performance but I don't want the phone to heat up.
You can't have the best of both worlds. You can either have performance (see above on how to improve benchmark score) or you can solve heat issue (see above)
Q: My phone doesn't unlock / Only Menu,Home,Options (Capacitive keys) light up / Facing Sleep of Death (SOD).
This is a known issue and the OTA update (Build number XOLO_Play_S016) solves it partially.
Q: I'm facing battery drain.
Known issue with this phone.
You can use deep sleep battery saver pro (after disabling xolo power app. see below on how to disable bloat)
You can also update your phone by OTA (Build number XOLO_Play_S016). This solves battery issue a little but adds some lag to games and videos.
Q: How long does the battery usually last?
With Battery Saver Apps and moderate (no heavy gaming) usage, it will last 8 to 10 hours.
Gaming will reduce it to a few hours or less depending on the game.
Q: I want to update the latest OTA update from XOLO. How can I get that?
Go to settings->about phone->Software update and check for updates, then follow instructions.
Q: What are the requirements for an OTA update?
You must be on the Stock odexed ROM. This is the only requirement.
Q: Where can I get the Stock odexed ROM?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2391669
Q: I am getting an error during OTA update.
Some apps modify the build.prop file so a signature check will fail and update will be unsuccessful.
If you're not already on the Stock odexed ROM, get it from the above question.
Then also flash the build.prop.zip from the same link.
Try the update now.
Q: My phone shows two network indicators in notification panel after OTA update.
This is an error due to the OTA update. No solution available as of now.
Q: How do I revert the OTA update?
Flash the Stock ROM here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2391669
Q: What are the requirements to flash a Stock ROM?
There is NO NEED for root.
You must flash a custom recovery.
Q: Do I need to unlock my Boot loader?
The bootloader of this phone is already unlocked.
Q: What is a bootloader? What is a recovery? What is a custom recovery?
A bootloader is the first thing that loads in a phone which governs everything else. You can make any changes to the phone through this.
A recovery is a place through which some minor changes like backup/restore, flashing a ROM etc is done.
A custom recovery is when you have more options than a stock recovery.
Q: Do I need to root in order to flash Stock ROM or Recovery?
NO
Q: I flashed recovery but on reboot, it shows stock recovery
After flashing, staying in Fastboot mode, pull out battery and put back in.
Press and hold power button till phone switches off.
Reboot into recovery using volume down and power button combo.
Now after rebooting, if its cwm recovery, it will ask "Disable recovery flash?" Click "Yes"
Q: Will my warranty be void?
Your warranty will be void only if XOLO comes to know that you tampered the phone.
To prevent this, we can always restore Stock ROM and recovery before claiming warranty.
You will also lose warranty if you use the Official root procedure by dialing a code in the phone dialer.
Q: Should I root? Everybody is doing it.
Don't do it just because everybody does it.
Q: What are the benefits of rooting?
No special benefits(unless you are an expert user). Risks? MANY.
Q: My phone doesn't get detected in my PC. Where can I get drivers? ADB/Fastboot doesn't work
You are missing drivers. Check the first question.
Q: Drivers are installed but shows waiting for device.

Worth Buying ?? So many problems ? is it worth Buying ? I was going to replace my lg p690 with this but after going through all the t1000 problems user face. its certainly no no... no custom rom, no custom kernel, virtually no blog to support this device. So its always better to buy from reputed companies like LG, Samsung or HTC. ?
can we overclock this device ? swap support in kernel ? ext4 support on microsd ? Does 64 GB microsd work ?
I read that SAR value in xolo phones are very high compare to others.
xolo x1000 = 1.30 W/kg (head) 1.22 W/kg (body)
did the company expect buyers to show interest only bcoz of Intel Inside or Tegra chipset ? and forget other aspects of a smartphone.

I agree that the company has poor software installed. There is now a new update which has enabled daily driver like usage. If you do have the buck it is always recommended to go for a reputed brand, YES.

I agree reputed brands can't be compared with xolo or micromax, as they cost almost twice in comparison, But I xolo should atleast provide proper software support to basic functions like signal issues, overheating, anytime restarts etc., lots of xolo buyers face the similar problems be it X1000 or T1000 or X900. I hope they get the basics right.
Love the specifications of almost of all xolo phones and wish they bring proper s/w updates and support for xolo fans.
Hey guys , the one issue which gives only two indicators has been fixed,
1. Download update from the Xolo site.
2.Extract it , youll find update.zip package.
3.place the zip file in the INTERNAl MEMORY (it has to be in the internal memory) not inside any folders, flash it using Xolo care.
4. Go to Settings > About >Phone , you'll see a new base band version. 3.3.5 this will fix the low signal issue

Crackling sound
Hello, I don't know if I'm posting it in the correct thread or not.
I have t bought the XOLO T1000, but apparently, I'm facing a problem i.e., after making a call for 1 minute, the sound deteriorates, i.e., it starts to crackle(seems like aliens are talking on the other side) and the other person is unable to hear my voice.
I changed the device and used my Xperia Sola and the same sim worked fine but in this device, this problem is coming. I did a clean wipe of the whole system and sd card(internal and external) yet the problem is unresolved.
Assistance required urgently.
Thanks you

Hello Devs,
I have problem charging my s3 international version.
My phone is rooted and running custom rom s5 sensation v4.0 kitkat 4.4.2 with boeffla kernel v6.0 and latest CWM touch recovery.
I have flashed many custom roms before and all was working good before. The phone was also charging properly before.
But after some time when 4.3 was released I have flashed s4 revolution.
After flashing that rom my problem started.
1st problem was the phone was not gettin connected to my cell tower. Later after searching soo many hours on google I found out that it changed the efs version from v1 to v2. So I found out a rescue zip file which include only modem of xxemg4. I flashed it and then all was working good.
After some time I faced a problem of reverse charging means the phone is kept on charge but instead of charging the battery decrease. So again I searched on google about my problem and found out an app called galaxy charging current which show the power that is getting the phone while its connected to the charger. when I installed it and saw the current it was only showing max 100 min 999 and avg 100. I saw some where that the default current the phone should get is 1000 in max.
I searched alot on google on how to solve this problem, tried many diffrent rom , tried changing my charger, tried to flash back the previous rom which I was using in which I was not having any problem but after doing all this the result was same.
when I connect to the charger it shows 700 In max n after some time it keeps going down like 500 then 300 then last 100.
So after searching on google I have found out a solution of flashing custom kernel. I flashed googymax kernel in which using sTweak we can configure the battery power and ignore safety measures and unstable power.
After doing that my phone gets max 1000 min 1000 and avg 999.
My problem is that when ever I flash new rom I hav to flash custom kernel to ignore the unstable power and safety measures to properly charge my phone.
is there any way I can get back as before I was charging my phone without flashing custom kernel...???
Any answer will be appreciated.
Note :- I was using the original charger which I got in the box while purchasing.
First replace your battery, charger and lead, then flash full stock firmware with Odin.
What happens when you attempt to charge the phone completely off. Do you see the charging graphic?
If something is wrong with the micro-USB port then a wireless charging solution might be your only option.
You could try reloading the firmware using the Kies software on your PC - here's an overview of what to do:
- if you don't already have the Kies software installed on your PC, download it (just search Google) and install it. The first time it runs it'll update itself to the latest version so make sure you run it once before proceeding.
- put your phone in Download mode: with the phone completely off, press and hold the Volume Down and Home and Power buttons simultaneously, and release them all when you see the Samsung splash screen
- connect the phone to your PC with the USB cable that came with the phone
-- if you've never had the phone connected to your Windows-based computer before, you'll see messages about installing drivers, etc - just wait until this is done (may take 5 or 10 minutes) [I don't know what happens if you have a Mac - it probably just works]
- in the Kies software, select the second item in the Tools menu and just follow the prompts to enter the model number (in CAPS) and IMEI/Serial Number (both found under the battery - it's ok to remove the battery at this point)
- the Kies software should start downloading the correct firmware for your phone from the Internet; once that's done (depending on your Internet connection speed) it'll begin downloading that to the phone (this probably takes 10 minutes or so)
Thnaks for your rply

1st of all thanks for replying on my query.
As u stated to change the battery, Charger, Lead and to full flash stock firmware.
I already did that.
I have tried my friends battery with his charger ( not the 1 which come in box ).
but then also its the same.
Whats the problem in it.
Is it a software fault or hardware fault....???

What happens when you attempt to charge the phone completely off. Do you see the charging graphic?
If something is wrong with the micro-USB port then a wireless charging solution might be your only option.
You could try reloading the firmware using the Kies software on your PC - here's an overview of what to do:
- if you don't already have the Kies software installed on your PC, download it (just search Google) and install it. The first time it runs it'll update itself to the latest version so make sure you run it once before proceeding.
- put your phone in Download mode: with the phone completely off, press and hold the Volume Down and Home and Power buttons simultaneously, and release them all when you see the Samsung splash screen
- connect the phone to your PC with the USB cable that came with the phone
-- if you've never had the phone connected to your Windows-based computer before, you'll see messages about installing drivers, etc - just wait until this is done (may take 5 or 10 minutes) [I don't know what happens if you have a Mac - it probably just works]
- in the Kies software, select the second item in the Tools menu and just follow the prompts to enter the model number (in CAPS) and IMEI/Serial Number (both found under the battery - it's ok to remove the battery at this point)
- the Kies software should start downloading the correct firmware for your phone from the Internet; once that's done (depending on your Internet connection speed) it'll begin downloading that to the phone (this probably takes 10 minutes or so)

Thanks for the reply.
When I try to charge my phone when completely off, 1st it was showing me the graphics of battery charging when I was using 4.3 Custom Rom. But since I flashed my phone with 4.4 Custom Rom, I can't see the graphics of charging battery now.
As per your overview above I have tried all the possible ways to get back charging work properly ( your overview was also included in it ) but I dont get any success in it.
Now I have to compulsory flash custom kernel which supports the options of ignoring unstable power and safety measures.
But then also I will try to do what you told me.
Once again thanks.
HI Friends,
I am pretty new to these things.
Needed help in two seperate devices.
1. MOTO E (FIRST GEN)
Want to recover data but problems are not working touch and USB debugging Disabled with pattern lock. I had tried changing Display and touch through service center but after a week service person told me that there is a unrepairable fault in the pcb of phone due to which sometimes the display light up and some times doesn't. He suggested me to purchase another phone instead of getting it repaired but the data in phone is important.
I had been trying different methods to get data via abd but as usb debugging is disable.
I can boot in recovery mode.
Custom kernels do have usb debugging enabled by default ?
Will flashing any custom kernel can permit me to take backup or any other suggestions ?
2. I ball Andi 4.5z Ram only 512 mb. (Unable to post links for being New)
Can anybody provide me some Custom ROM suggestions to flash it to kitkat or lollipop(if possible).
will prefer if any slim /lite rom with basic functions.Just need to talk sms and few small games.Rom must support Call Recording unlike samsung rom and as close to stock android as possible.
Hardware Specs are http://forum.xda-developers.com/album.php?albumid=12506&pictureid=50414
Hoping for some good suggestions.
NO ONE ?
Plz anyone ?any valid sugessions ? Modders ?

Plz del this thread as no one seems to have sol or even suggestion.
I registered my account on this website just to share my awesome experience with Nokia 1.
I am very much thankful to XDA and many other sites whose text assisted me in recovering my mobile.
WARNING: VERY LARGE TEXT BELOW AND ITS JUST MY EXPERIENCE, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF SOMEONE TRY TO GET ANY IDEAS FROM IT AND BRICK HIS PHONE
I purchased Nokia 1 (TA-1047). My only objective was to automatically record sound from 8AM to 2 PM. So I started root process (Devmode: OK, boot loader unlock: OK, TWRP flashing and running: OK)
BUT WHAT? TWRP is asking for a password... this was not provided in the guide. I tried blank password... not OK. Then I searched the Internet and learned that if I cancel on password screen and then Wipe data then it will be fine. I did that, then made full backup (ADB), and flashed Magisk (ADB)..OK. Restarted the phone and "bump": Phone told me it failed to decrypt and then it went into TWRP boot-loop.
Then I searched again and found TA-1060 recovery bin (from this site) and stock images. I flashed TA-1060 recovery (at that time I did not know that I could go to Boot-loader from TWRP and wasted like an hour to do it using buttons - Correct method is: power off the phone, connect the usb cable, press power and volume down till you see android logo). After flashing 1060 recovery I was able to reset phone and "voila" Magisk was also there.
Now I installed Schedule Voice Recorder, Team-Viewer Host (to transfer big files remotely), App locker (to lock settings and play store), Autostart and Stay (because recorder was getting closed), Dropbox and Dropsync --- and you can guess what would have happened. My mobile kept closing them randomly even if I made Recorder and AutoStart system app and whitelisted in developer setting and set to NOT optimized battery. So I tried to disable Nokia bloat-wares and damaged the system again. This happened for a few iterations before I realized that the Nokia 1 RAM is not sufficient to handle all these apps and I got an idea to upload earlier android version (Spoiler! Hard-brick is coming).
I searched on internet for similar mobile and found Huawei Y3 2017 with same chipset and configuration, Y5 with same chipset but higher configuration. Downloaded stock rom for both. First tried flashing boot and system from TWRP but failed saying that size was different? Downloaded SP flash tool, somehow passed through drivers issue (this would require another thread ). Tried flashing (with formatting) both Y3 2017 UO00 (which was different chipset but i altered scatter file) and Y5 but it failed on some check error. After that my phone was hard bricked!
Then I downloaded nokia 1 stock firmware but it was bad scatter file (only nvram and nvdata was showing), altered it, format+flash: failed again. Searched on internet and found that if I flash wrong preloader then I am done. I was not sure if I had already done it. I altered the scatter file again to include only preloader and thankfully it showed success but any other rom after it, it failed to flash. Found something like Nokia 3 DA and tried it but also failed.
FINALLY: I found nokia 1 nb0 rom and nb0 extractor, extracted rom using that, flash it and "voila" my phone was back alive. Tried to root but failed (because serial number was not same as before and new number did not work). Then I started iterations by mixing roms from my backup and using my "proinfo.bin" and stock rom my phone revived with my own serial number. BUT, then I flashed stock preloader and lk but everything else from Huawei, it failed with check error and then also refused to format for stock rom. Searched on internet about manual formatting, did that (WARNING: starting from address where preloader ends otherwise you would format your preloader as well) then it was back okay.
Rooted again, copied scheduler in sys-priv, whitelisted, not optimize battery. Also team viewer host (normal settings) and dropbox and sync (normal settings). As a work around I have now scheduled the app to record 24 hours instead of 8AM to 2PM so that it always remain as foreground app. 11 hour testing so far so good.
QUESTION: Can I not upload lesser android version (e.g. 4.4 or 5 or 6)? If I can then how.?
UPDATE: The Recorder is killed by OS again as well as team viewer host (even when recorder apk was in system/priv-app)
Is there any way to keep it always ON?
Or is there any way to installed some previous version of android?

Every Nokia 1 user is facing background app crash problem. Infact Nokia 5 users also. It simply crashes background apps like pressing force close and as of now there is no solution. we have to wait until nokia releases a fix.
By the way which build number are you using?

Maybe you have so many apps in the background, I had Instagram, YouTube and Facebook life in the background and I get rare force closes or I might be lucky I have a Nokia 1 TA-1060

No its an os bug from nokia side. It fails to work as it should after a particular update. Maybe u r not facing coz u have only 3 apps that too light ones from good app makers, google and fb. But if u add some more like any call recorder ( as mentioned by op)u would also face same problem i believe. It doesnt thows a FC but simple kills the app in background and u dont get notified.
UPDATE :- Here is the solution
