Hi well today I here that the Ulefone Power will be out in some places and its a very good battery life 4 dayds with out charging it so I want to know is their any plans for costume rom this baby as this phone is very affordable and was wondering if any one is planing this me be 64bit rom?????????????????????
Dude! I second this motion! The phone's a beast but boy does the stockrom suck.
Cant wait for some talented guys to do a custom rom for this phone. Im very happy with the hardware, only the rom is a little bit wanky.
I have had this phone for three weeks now.
It's a truly fantastic device! Hardware is good, makes great pictures and the massive battery can last me for 12 hours without changing it. Let me clarify that my Note 4 was able to stay alive without my spare 3000mAh Samsung battery for no more than 4-6 hours.
The only complaint i have with the Power is that YouTube, as well as RadioYouTube are lagging here and there. I tried few tweaks form the Developer options to reduce the lag, but not much improve was noticed.
So, a good custom ROM to eliminate the issues and make it even better would make this device a real leader in reliability and satisfacton.
i dont know but i have a feeling one 6.0 is released some custom roms should come out, no point making them yet with it coming out in the next week or two (or three with the current delays), cant wait though, getting mine today hopefully!
I would like to notice that front camera on stock android 5.1 really sucks! It's just terrible, when I flashed android 6 it's way better but still it's sharphing photos to much... In video recording there is no problem so I am 100% sure that's software problem. Hope it will get solved with some custom android 6 rom . This is just an info for future developers.
custom rom
I found custom rom on needrom. It's ported from leagoo shark. I'am using it and better than stock rom. If anyone build a custom rom, i will try.

No CM version.
I heard that Ulefone Compagny has given some devices (Ulefone Power) to ROM Developpers.
So We could maybe get some custom roms or port from another devices in a early future
Rooting uleFone Power
Hi all. As posted earlier, there are instructions on the Ulefone blog on how to root the device.
http://blog.ulefone.com/how-to-root-ulefone-power/
Here's a quick rundown. I'm also uploading all the tools I downloaded and used to my Google Drive.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BzqEmGyNP_v6cWdZVU5rRnpmbDQ
If you rather get the things directly from the Ulefone Blog then do so.
DRIVERS
Based on checks, it's probably best to install the driver directly. One of the instructions given is to turn off the phone and connect it to the PC. When I did this nothing happened, and I only started to get some results when I turned on the phone while connected. At this point it flashed very quickly that there was an MTK device but drivers weren't installed. After installing the drivers on the system and doing this again, it managed to install the drivers properly. I also noticed that booting the device with VOL+/POWER gave me the option of installing the drivers also. As stated on the site - you may need to disable driver signing for Windows 8/10.
TWRP
This part is pretty straightforward. Unzip all of the files. Run the SP FLASH TOOL. Enable USB CHECKSUM in the options for SP FLASH TOOL. Locate the scatter file for TWRP and hit the download button while the phone is off. If nothing happens for you, simply turn the phone on while it's connected and the download button is already pressed. It will prevent the phone from booting and flash TWRP directly. You may go into TWRP by holding VOL+/POWER until you get the menu for normal/fastboot/recovery and select recovery. Please bear in mind that at this menu, the VOL+ cycles the options and the VOL- selects/confirms the option.
ROOT
Once you've completed the TWRP installation, start TWRP and allow modification of the system partition. Select the options to reboot into the system and then swipe to install SuperSU and root the device. That's it - you're done!
Screenshots and photos will follow.
Hey there!

Hello to all Mighty Zeus Developers of XDA,
I am here to request a secure section of the newly and heavily sold devices of Lenovo s850 in India and in different part of South East Asia...
We the users really needed some help of the mighty developers for a few attractive custom ROM's and Development of the same product. Please make some ROM's which we can play with Lenovo S850
There is no custom ROM section in whole web... only a post of amight one to root the device only, at the moment there is no custom rom available for these device.
A humble request to all mighty developers "Need cutom ROM's for Lenovo S850"
Subscribed because I'm using the same phone and would like to see some support and development for the Lenovo S850. Been scouring the interwebs for custom roms for this device and so far I've come up with zilch. Please XDA, show this phone some TLC!:fingers-crossed:
Upgrade/Update Lenovo S850 To 5.0 Lollipop
This tutorial is inspired from forum.xda-developers.com
The Lenovo S850 users can update their device to Android 5.0 Lollipop by using custom ROM.
This new Lollipop Upgrade has come with so many advanced features:
The performance is improved up to 4x.
The device battery can be extended up to 90 minutes with a battery saver feature.
Your computing experience will be faster, smoother, as well as more powerful.
This Upgrade Lenovo S850 To 5.0 Lollipop supports 64-bit SoCs by using ARM x86 and the cores based on MIPS.
The Android extension pack including the OpenGL ES 3.1 will bring you upfront mobile graphics that can put on par with Computer and console class operations.
To navigate the device after Lollipop update it will be easier as your Lollipop Upgrade will have familiar visual elements, responsive, realistic lighting and shadows, and natural motion.
By tapping the top of the display you can see all the notifications at a glance. Eventually, the notifications are smarter in ranking depending on the contacts and the communication to the contacts if you Update Lenovo S850 To 5.0 Lollipop.
A new encryption is coming with the new device that will automatically turn the device on for protecting lost data or device.
Against malware and vulnerabilities you can get far better protection if you Upgrade Lenovo S850 To 5.0 Lollipop.
To allow UHD 4K 10-bit video playback the device has full support for HEVC as it has state of the art video technology. It can decode videos for improving HLS and saving power.
And so many cool features are available with the Lollipop Upgrade.
Before you try the custom ROM you should know some extra aspects first:
● Must keep back-up for your personal data properly.
● The battery power should be more than 79% before starting the customization.
● You need to make sure for enabling the USB Debugging mode.
● You can operate wipe cache partition as well as wipe dalvik before you reboot your device if the device gets stuck while booting or during the installation.
How to Upgrade/Update Lenovo S850 To 5.0 Lollipop:
1. Follow the download link for downloading Android 5.0 Lollipop ROM for your Lenovo S850 .
2. Now install completely the ROM Manager into your device. You can get that from Google Play store. Then install the clockwork mod recovery.
3. Connect the device to your PC by the USB cable. Now copy the ROM.zip file you have already downloaded into your memory drive.
4. Now restart your Lenovo S850 in recovery mode. You need to use ROM Manager for this operation.
5. Erase the total data including Delvik Cache from the recovery menu. After completing, come back in the recovery main menu. Then choose the Flash ROM from your memory drive. Now navigate the address where you put the ROM.zip file. It is the time when you need to follow the directions to install Android 5.0 Lollipop and to Update Lenovo S850 To 5.0 Lollipop. As early as the total installation is done, only reboot your Lenovo S850 .
Here you go now. All done!

I ported CM12 for ROW S119
I have been using the custom rom since 5 month ago. The rom is fine and stable but it can't vibrate. I'm too lazy to fix it because of my up coming exam next month. Should I upload it?
Anyway here's the link if anyone want to try it out

Im sorry for late replying.
Unfortunately I can't fix the issue because I didn't own the device anymore. But you can try other rom that I had ported CM13 and Slim6. I had use them before I bought a new device(J3).I had uploaded CM13 and Slim6.
As for the issues, I only had experienced the 2nd and 3rd that you mentioned.Sorry for the inconvinience and my incompetent in fixing the issues.
Thanks to you too for using my rom.

It's easy
1.make sure you have ROW android version and put the custom rom in your phone(but I'm not sure it will be compatible or not with other ROW version that I used).
2. Flash custom recovery. You can use mobileuncle tool if your phone is rooted but remember don't put the recovery.img in any folder if you use this method.
4. Make a backup using TWRP and on PC(you can skip this) just to be cautious.
5. Boot in to TWRP and Wipe data/factory reset.
WARNING THIS WILL WIPE ALL YOUR DATA IN YOUR PHONE.
6. Flash custom rom and gapps. You can download gapps from opengapps(choose pico and arm version of gapps it's the smallest one)
7.Reboot and enjoy your new custom rom.The first boot will take about 5 minutes.
8. If you're stuck in boot animation try wiping cache and dalvik cache.
Thank you very much
I took a gamble buying a Chinese phone redmi-note 2 but sadly! it hasn't worked out for me.
All I wanted from it, was for it to do what it is supposed to do.
Bluetooth
Bluetooth doesn't connect to any of my devices, car, Hi-fi and not even my nexus 7!
Miui updater
Totally useless on my phone. This app crashes every time I select "choose update package"
I have looked for help on YouTube but the majority of videos seem to be Indian, using Indian versions of software where the updater app seems to work perfectly.
I managed to root my nexus 7 with ease but the redmi-note 2 is a nightmare.
I could really do with some of you android guru's to point me in the right direction! in finding a good beginners guide to finding all the apps and suitable rom for my phone, Or better still.! A way to get Bluetooth to work.
First of all check if your device has official rom or custom (if you bought it from China it probably has custom rom so flash official one).
Mine is working very good...
I second what ibeqa said - you're probably running a crapware-loaded ROM. Crashing updater is a good hint. You could also look into "about phone" section for the MIUI version, if it's something like 9.99.99 then it's crapware. "Legit" ROMs have version 7.xx.yy or 6.xx.yy. The crapware ROMs are IMHO the main reason why Xiaomi decided to lock the bootloader on RN3 and other newer phones. Because obviously, those ROMs give them bad reputation even though it's not their fault.
Bluetooth works fine for me, but sometimes it hangs up forcing me to restart it - not optimal but doesn't happen too often.
As for rooting, rooting the Nexus 7 (2012) was the same as RN2 for me - connect to PC in fastboot mode, flash recovery.img, reboot to recovery and flash a custom ROM. There are enough guides out there. For the RN2, fastboot can be accessed by starting the phone with the volume down key pressed.
Agree with the above. Please re-flash using official ROM via fastboot method and then try again. See http://en.miui.com/a-234.html
Android version 5.02 LRX22G
MIUI Version 66.77.33.00(LHMCNCH) Stable
Cpu octo core 2.2Ghz
Ram 2GB
I Have downloaded Update supersu 2.4 and miui HMNote2Global v7.2.2.0LHMMIDA_DA_d71ff21b81_5.0.zip are these correct please?
I installed CWM but have read that TWRP is the one I should be using! is that correct?
The trouble with the redmi 2 ,is there is too much conflicting information out there, making it very difficult for a newbie.
Is there any other things that I need to download?
This whole thing has really put me off the Xiaomi brand. I just expected bluetooth to work ! it is supposed to be standardised worldwide.
To you Guys it is probably fun to mess about with different roms, all I wanted was a working phone.
"MIUI Version 66.77.33.00" <- that's your problem right there. You reseller installed a crapware loaded ROM and has modified the version so that you never get an update (= he can spy on you forever), had you bought from another one, you would have gotten a working phone. I know mine did.
Putting blame on Xiaomi for this is misplaced, unless you want to blame them for being dev-friendly and leaving the bootloader unlocked. They reconsidered by now, though, their newer phones are locked.
In any case, yes TWRP is the way to go personally. CWM has cut important features like backup/restore (at least the version shipped with cyanogen roms I tried), so it's basically useless.
For the ROM, if you have downloaded it from the xiaomi page, then yes. You could also get the rom from xiaomi.eu if you want to use an European language.
If you just want official MIUI then you don't need to install custom recovery (use fastboot method instead as per official instructions). In fact the custom recovery will get removed next time you receive an OTA update.
Personally I use TWRP from this link http://en.miui.com/thread-224679-1-1.html because I wanted to install root. But only do this AFTER you install a clean ROM at the first place.

I bought the phone from Gearbest.EU and expected it to be direct from Xiaomi, as I have never had a problem with this company before.
I have had another go at installing a new rom with the Mi suite and also with the miui flash tool and am not getting anywhere with it. I can't even root the damned thing as it boots into Mi when pressing vol up and start. This happened with CWM and TWRP.
I have said before,that I have little experience with android and perhaps I am going wrong somewhere! or the tutorial posters are using phones that have totally different roms to mine. ,It is very difficult when you have Indian,Chinese and global versions with many variations of each, the same seems to apply to CWM and TWRP.
Is there a way to install this via windows, ie formatting the phone and running an installer direct from pc?
I had a dabble with Linux mint and Artist in the past and found them quite user friendly, I can't believe that android is Linux based! I could have done a fresh install of windows, several times by now,the amount of time I have spent on this. Of course windows truly is global with only a couple of variations . Format disk, run and your away. Then hours installing software.
I am fast getting to the stage where I shall give it a bounce test, from a great height. :crying:
Hello!
First post here!
I just revived a Cubot Note S and am pretty happy with the performance.
I've searched around for a while and am unable to root the device, I've seen one other post on XDA regarding a successful Root on 5.1 but am unable to find any information on how this is achieved.
I've tried Kingo, King and Root Genius with USB Debugging an OEM Unlock enabled.
If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be great,
Thank you
Sorry, don't have any kind of solution but I just wanted to say I'm in the exact same boat as you. Been trying to root my Cubot for days.
Good News!
Aftee alot of digging and flashing several recoveries I have successfully rooted the Cubot Note S.
Ill put a simple guide here to help:
Its your responsibility what happens to your phone, Mine works flawlessly, but be careful out there!
Requirements:
Cubot note S on 5.1 Lollipop
Smart Phone Flash Tool & MTK Scatter file (for the cubot) & Super SU.zip
buzztechnica.com/2016/03/how-to-root-and-install-twrp-recovery.html?m=
In the first paragraph is a download link. Download the rar and extract it. All you need is the Smart Phone Flash tool and the MT scatter.txt. THE RECOVERY IN THIS DOES NOT WORK!
Modified TWRP recovery (there is omly one that works!
android-hilfe.de/thema/root-und-twrp-fuer-cubot-note-s.753414/page-2 << Post number 37 has the Mega link to the working recovery.img file
MTK VCOM drivers
spflashtool.com
Look for link that says "Download MediaTek VCOM Drivers" get the self installer package.
About recoveries,
Make sure you use the Modified one and not any other. The bundled one in the FlashTool and the other 3 floating in the internet do not work as they do not register touches. These are useless.
Okay, so now you have the files i would create a new folder with everything you need. So thats the Flash tool, scatter file and the modified TWRP recovery and phone drivers.
Before you start. Copy the SuperSU zip to your phone somewhere. Also enable USB Debugging in the developer options. Finally TURN OFF YOUR PHONE. i.e hold power, power off. Dont plug your phone into the computer yet
On your computer install the VCOM drivers first. Now to get the drivers installed I had to modify the batch file to work on Win10. If your on Win10. Right click the install batch file and edit. Remove all the lines regarding the OS check and save and run the installer. A command window will notify of the install success
open the Flash tool. Now, the second box asks you to select a scatter file. Select the one you have.
Ensure the dropdown box is selected to Dowload Only.
Ensure that ONLY recovery is ticked, you dont wanna flash anything else accidently!
To summarise... now, you should have super su.zip on your phone. Smart phone flash tool setup with the scatter file and custom recovery loaded. Your ready to flash!
Before plugging your phone in click Download. Now plug your phone in. And you will see it will flash. Should take a few seconds youll see a bar going along the screen. A box will pop up saying download OK!
Now, apparantly your phone is meant to boot without any assistance. Mine did not. So in this case. Unplug from PC. Remove phone battery. Put back in and tey to enter recovery (Pwr + Vol Up) <<< tip, dont hold them in too long as my phone just kept resetting. Hold about half a second while the screen is on then let go
You should now be in twrp recovery. Swipe the notification and proceed to flash the super su zip. Once complete, remove your battery and DONT press restart. It wont work and your phone will freeze.
Put your battery back in and boot normally, you now have custom recovery and Root!!
Enjoy!
Sorry about the links. Im new here. Modify the links and paste in browser
.... or you simply navigate to needrom.com and seek for "Cubot Note S". Then you'll find a working TWRP-recovery for Android 5.1 and even 6.0, a beta ROM for Marshmallow (6.0) and the not yet published ROM from 11-07/2016 for Lollipop (5.1). To flash with SP-Flash-Tool from your Computer.
Cheers!

I tried these, but as stated, all those Recorives did not work due to not recognising the touches. plus, the 5.1 stock ROM is stable, where as the 6.0 is still beta. I'd rather stick with a stable ROM.
6.0 ROM and the 6.0 TWRP may work, but its untested for me. hence why I've targeted 5.1 in my tut
Thanks for the detailed walk through Sparky. I may give it a go but I'm very new to all this so I don't want to get myself into something where I'm not really sure what I'm doing. Either way, thanks for the help

Hello guys!
Recently, i've got this phone mentioned above. It is a great phone, everything is okay, but i do not like EMUI a lot, i prefer AOSP to EMUI.
Are there any custom ROMs (CM, AOSP, etc) to this phone?
I've looked around on 4pda.ru about this, i found a recovery, but thats it, nothing more.
There you go, i installed this TWRP 3.0.2.0, and it works like a charm.
1: Unlock your bootloader. IT IS INDISPENSABLE! If you brick your device locked, you lost.
2: Go into fastboot (Easiest: Turn off your device, and Hold down POWER DOWN + POWER WHILE you attach the USB from the computer. The phone will go instantly into fastboot mode, it works for me)
3: Type: fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
4: The phone now should download the recovery. Pull the battery out, and restart in recovery.
Download
The file is from 4PDA.ru, i have to reupload it, because 4PDA's sign up is a PAIN. A friend of mine helped me, and it took like 2 hours.
Altough, i do not know why you need the recovery other than backing up, since there are no custom rom avaiable for this phone. (Can anyone maybe port to it?)
I think, that porting Allwiev E4 Lite custom roms would be the best option, but I have weak knowledge about roms porting :crying:
There are no custom roms yet for this device.
For first you may trie to install nova launcher? It gives some feeling near to aosp.

No. The best option is to port the ROM with the same chipset (MT6735).
My best result is a Doogee X5 Pro

For first you may trie to install nova launcher? It gives some feeling near to aosp.

Maybe I did read a wrong article. Could you please link a cyanogenmod to that device?

There you go, i installed this TWRP 3.0.2.0, and it works like a charm.
1: Unlock your bootloader. IT IS INDISPENSABLE! If you brick your device locked, you lost.
2: Go into fastboot (Easiest: Turn off your device, and Hold down POWER DOWN + POWER WHILE you attach the USB from the computer. The phone will go instantly into fastboot mode, it works for me)
3: Type: fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
4: The phone now should download the recovery. Pull the battery out, and restart in recovery.
Download
The file is from 4PDA.ru, i have to reupload it, because 4PDA's sign up is a PAIN. A friend of mine helped me, and it took like 2 hours.
Altough, i do not know why you need the recovery other than backing up, since there are no custom rom avaiable for this phone. (Can anyone maybe port to it?)

@snikerfreak did you find any rom for this device.
My son instaled TWRP and wiped everything trying to flash an honor 5A rom, installation failed so now phone is dead.
Do you know where to get a firmware? Can't find anything right!
All attempts to find firmware for my Dual Sim Huawei Y6 II Compact (LYO-L21) failed so I want to ask a BIG support to anyone in this thread with a TWRP recovery installed. By inexperience my teenager son wiped every partition on the phone and now we are unable to boot. It would be of great help if some one could share a twpr backup (including all partitions) to be used not only for me but for anyone as a flashable firmware.
I'm aware it would take some time, skills and dedication.
Here is how to perform it:
Backup your current phone firts with all your personal data
Do a Factory Reset
Do a second backup to be shared as a stock rom or standard firmware
Restore personal backup
Upload firmware (stock rom) backup to the cloud and share donwload link here
Is there anyone wanting to provide this?
I'll be very grateful for that
Thanks

Hello guys!
Recently, i've got this phone mentioned above. It is a great phone, everything is okay, but i do not like EMUI a lot, i prefer AOSP to EMUI.
Are there any custom ROMs (CM, AOSP, etc) to this phone?
I've looked around on 4pda.ru about this, i found a recovery, but thats it, nothing more.

Are there any custom ROMs?
Russian have custom ROMs in 4pda forum. It is Resurrection Remix OS 7.1.1 (unstable beta) and CyanogenMod 14.1_Android 7.1.1 (beta, camera not working). They stop work with RR_OS, but CM 14.1 is still porting.
You can help em.
links:
RR_Os port - 4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=792704&st=560#entry60137872
CM 14.1 port - 4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=792704&st=780#entry60547208
Also u can install ota-updates from custom recovery. Just del some strings in updater-script file into update.app \META-INF\com\google\android\ and repack its like .zip (w/o compression)
4xample strings:
assert(file_getprop(" -- it is checks firmware version and region
assert(apply_patch_check(" --- it is checks the hash sums of files the updates
hi guys
after a lot searching around i could not find any guide on xda to install twrp on power 5.yes i have come across other models but not this specific one .then searching on net i came to know one of guide to install twrp..after trying whole day i finally go through unlocking boot loader and flashing twrp. but problem i am facing is i cant reboot my phone into custom recovery it would reboot into its own android recovery.
any ideas what could be wrong or there is special recovery.img for ulefone power 5.
what could be that i cant figure out
I have the same problem
I dont know when some tech or expert will solve our problem..
head to 4pda.ru and check there, from what I have read it's seems they made it (not without hassle, though).
Thanks mate i will have look and get back to you
I have the same problem, I follow the russian guide too, it doesn't work.
Any luck with this guys?
I followed instructions from 4PDA, however,
1) if I flash ROM v1 I can get into TWRP but the screen EVERYWHERE looks broken (so, something with the drivers is messed up)
2) if I flash ROM v2 I cannot boot into TWRP, as it it just isn't there.
I tried both methods of flashing files, with MDT tool and via ADB/Fastboot, the results are the same.

I just got the upgraded Power 5S, and was also wondering if there is any root method for it. From what I have been reading and gathering, it seems there is no sure way just yet. If anyone has any luck, please do let us know.

No custom ROMs as far as I know.
Don't expect to see those anytime soon. Custom ROMs require a large user base. This one will have a marginal amount of users.
Rooting should however be possible. You can use Google translate to navigate 4PDA forums and install TWRP.

The issue is that there are a couple of mixed results on the rooting. I haven't actually seen proof of any working.
Russians say it's working for them.
There rooting sticks if you delete a file mentioned in their tutorial, a file located in /system folder, before rebooting for the first time.
https://www.stupdroid.com/2018/07/root-twrp-ulefone-Power-5.html
Worked for me after trying 2-3 times.
But Using root with Galaxy S launcher(my preferred one) not stable for long, after some time it starts giving issues. If you load twrp and then root, then continue using stock launcher. Xposed working too, but most of the modules not compatible with Oreo 8.1.
Note : DONT load ANRC and similar modules of Xposed which alter basic root files, your phone will refuse to boot and you will have to load the OS again. Gravity Box also starts giving issues after some time. I use an older version of Whatsapp extensions, Xwifi(Wifi name in status bar) and status bar download progress. These 3 are all I need.
https://www.getdroidtips.com/twrp-recovery-ulefone-power-5/
Same guide, works but once you unlock bootloader and load twrp your internal memory will get wiped out so make sure you backup and reload important files
TWRP 3.2.3
So my UMIDIGI Plus E got stolen a few days ago (thanks to the thief for helping me get rid of that piece of junk) - I have the Ulefone Power 5 now. None of the TWRPs I could find worked for me, so I ported it from TWRP I found for the Power 3 (and tested it - it's working). So I uploaded it to my MediaFire account (and have the link), but I've never posted on XDA before so I can't post the link to it here because I don't have 10 posts yet....
I've uploaded it to Needrom dot com, but it has not yet been reviewed. You guys can try to search for it there.
If I could, then I would've uploaded it here.
UPDATE: I've just posted it at the My Digital Life forums under the title: TWRP 3.2.3 for Ulefone Power 5 (and 5S)

have you flashed recovery img which is under your zip ?
I've done the same and not working
Sorry to ask, but is there a clear solution/instruction? I've tried to flash the img. files provided by jojy thomas, but my phone would just request me to enter my casual password with the on-screen keyboard crashing, just to tell me that the decryption failed and have me factory reset my phone. I couldn't get into TWRP in any way, and just had to go along with everything else.
