HI. The phone is rooted with CheckRom RevolutionHD3.1.1 and Hellcat kernel 2.6.35. I am searching for a solution on the following issue:
I am unable to secure (lock screen) with a pin/pw/or pattern.
Action done: In settings->location &security->setup screen lock .... (I select appropriate option to secure with either pin/pattern/pw (tried it all)..
Test #1: reboot phone
Test #2: screen lock (15sec, 1m, etc).. leave the phone idle
Test #3: downloaded Widget Locker (select advance settings to 'retain system keyguard')
All tested and have failed to request a PIN # or Pattern to access the phone.
The guy who sold me this phone said it is due to the phone being rooted/rom?! Is this true?? IF yes, is there a fix to this issue?
PLEASE advise. thanks!
Did you get phone with that ROM installed already?
Maybe try to wipe data and reflash the ROM clean and fresh (i.e. also format /system in CWM before applying the .ZIP to install the ROM).
Yes, I rec'd phone with that ROM installed.
Also, this is all new to me (switched from Iphone Jailbreak world to Android App).
Is there a site with simple instructions on how to restore back to original w/o bricking the phone (unsure if its the same as iphone)? Searched all youtube, and so far non-english speakers (italian vids). Other US vids isn't too clear with instructions.
Also, there's so many ROMs and Kernels to choose from.. Which one is the best one out there that is stable? Unsure if switching ROMs will damage the system so wanted to make sure I'm doing this right.
Thanks again for the quick response!! Appreciate it!!!
This thread should serve for all stock ROM needs, IIRC also holds the (PC) program ("Odin") used to flash the ROMs:

I hear you on the iOS->Android transition, was the same me.
As long as you stick to a few simple rules (also outlined in the thread above) you can't really brick the S2.
Just never break the bootloaders, as long as the bootloaders are OK, you can always go to download mode and flash a new stock ROM.
"Download Mode" is kind of what "DFU Mode" is on the iPhone - just way more reliable
Hello, all ROM makers, developers, hackers and advanced users.
I have a problem and hope you can give me some good advice.
Here is my sad story
You can read the full description if you want. Or you can skip it - the main question in the end of this post..
I have bought a new Sony ericsson Live! with walkman (wt19i) phone during my newyear holydays in Prague. It seemd to be working fine.
It is from rev.3, manufacture date 11/49 (mounth/week)
When I came back home and started using it, I saw that after some inactivity period (about couple hours or maybe more) the touch screen, back and menu snsor buttons stops any responsing. Hardware buttons (home, volume, camera, walkman and power) are still working. The system also continues to work as usual, so I can turn it on (but can not slide to unlock), I can hear if somebody calls me (but can not answer). Alarms, notifications and all another functions are still working.
Once or twise it started to work again (by itself, without any actions by me) but after few time the problem repeated. I was very unhappy and sure it was a hardware problem (and of course the Czech warranty does not work in Russia), but now i'm not so sure.
The phone had 4.0.2.A.0.58 firmware (android 2.3.4) from the box. First of all I tried to install SE PC Companion software, connect phone with usb and make factory reset... touchscreen started to work! But soon I saw this problem again.
The next day a new update was released and installed it (firmware .62). My phone was working again, but with the same result after some time.
You shoud know, that simple softreset (or ejecting and inserting battery) has absolutesy no effect on problem. After system starts I can not even unlock it. But flashing a new (or even the same) firmware (with flash tool or SE PCC) makes touchscreen and buttons working for some time. Have no idea why, but installing ROM with CWM (even with full wipe) does not make touch working.
Then I tried to use another custom kernels and ROMs. I unlocked the bootloader with fastboot tool, flashed one of custom ROMs from this forum (pre-rooted and with CWM). Then tried to use CM7.2 ROM... then another kernel and another ROM. Official, official-based, totally unofficial. The problem was with me each time after couple hours
I thought it is because some troubles in lock screen. Tried to install "no lock" app, so my phone did not use lock... but after some time touch freezes in home screen.
I disabled screen off while charging in settings and tried to leave the phone "wired" for some time... actually it worked fine all the time, and when I dicsonnected it it was still working... for couple hours.
I tried to install "no sleep" applications that does not allow CPU and screen to suspend. But it have no influense.
I even flashed CM9.0 ICS (very) beta ROM with the same result.
If it is just hardware problem - why it solves (for some time, but solves) with flashing? If it is a software problem - why it doesnt solve with new kernels and ROMs? My brain is ready to explode.
Now I have only one last idea and ask you to help me.
The question is:
How can I use adb or adb shell comands to get more information about the problem with touch?
I saw there is some log (logcat, stderr) tools, debug tools. I saw working lsmod, dmesg and mount commands in shell.
I think I shoud get all this information when all is ok. And then get it again when touch stops working and then compare, is it a good idea?
Where exactly shoud I see? How to test or get some touch input device info with adb? Is there any item in /dev that i can explore? Or something in dmesg? Where are touch driver located and how can I check if it is working?
I have some basic linux and andriond skills, but have not enought expierence.
I very (VERY) hope somebody can give me any useful advice to continue solving the problem. Where to see, what to do?
Thank you
P.S.: and sorry for mistakes, of course. English is not my native language.
P.P.S.: i am not sure where is the best place for this question: here or in xperia subforums. But I decided that this question is not xperia-specific and can be useful for other people in future.
Anybody? I have Lenovo Yoga B6000 with touchscreen problem and will be good if anyone know how can i test TS through ADB or shell.
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

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?).

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

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?
Hi Friends,
I have started this thread to invite all developers and users to share all good tips and tricks for the device Alcatel Onetouch Flash 6042D which is such a good phone looking at the specification and Quality of Hardware. A very first thing special thanks to Flipkart for bringing this device to India that too at an affordable prize and also for providing excellent service as they always do
Talking in brief about special highlight of this device, it features a 5.5 inch screen, 1.4 GHz MTK 6592M Octa core processor, 3200mAH battery which lasts for minimum 1.5 days even with heavy use of Wi-Fi for 8 hours Secondly even Alcatel engineers have done awesome work by working so much behind update the stock android and making it so beautiful
Coming to point as I have own personally this device and looking at user reviews few users faced some of the issue one of which even i came across. So if you are one among those users than follow my below tips: -
1. Network Hanging/Stuck Issue: - For users, who came across Network hanging issue which happens specially when you are roaming with this device as i have personally witnessed the sole reason for this is Google Apps update. Their is no reason to blame alcatel for this. MY testing till now has revealed that This is caused specially by Google Play services and Google Apps update that happens automatically if you are on Wi-Fi network.
To get rid of this: - First of all don't update any of your google apps until the bugs in current one are fixed. Go to Play store> Settings and disable Auto upate apps over WiFi so that it won't update automatically. This resolves the issue and you can use other older version of google apps also like gmail, youtube which came preloaded with your phone.
2. Camera giving only 9.4Mega pixel Images: - I see by default the images clicked by this device is of 9.4 Mega pixel only. This happens because of the full screen mode being ON in camera. To resolve this> Open Camera app> click on setting icon> Full screen is highlighted by default just touch it to remove full screen mode. Congrats now your camera will click 13 Mega pixel images
3. Hard resetting your phone: - For users who wish to Hard reset there Alcatel One touch flash device do these things:
a. Power off your phone
b. Press and hold Power + Volume down button together until you see Android recovery screen. (Note: you need to hold these two buttons together until you come to recovery screen might take 20 seconds)
c. Now select "wipe cache"
d. Now select "Factory reset"
e. Now let the device reset your phone it will take some time around 1 minute
f. Now next time you power on it will stay at Alcatel boot image after sometime hold power button again to switch off
g. now hold power button and Congrats now your phone is resetted successfully
I haven't come across any other issue apart from these. Users who come across any other issue share in this forum I will assist in resolving the bugs, if any For those need screen shots to know the procedure let me know i will update screenshots of procedure in my next post.
People who wish to root their device a atip from my side is to wait for sometime until Alcatel officially provides stock image in their android upgrade firmware and only than try rooting as if at this stage if you screw up your device than it would be difficult to get the stock image and restore your phone.
