Hi everyone, i am new at this forum and android devices, i searched for 2 days but cannot find exact answers for my problem
I bought an iphone 4s clone which the seller said that name is Gooapple V5 3G, android 2.3.5 is installed on it, but when i installed antutu benchmark and look at the system info, it is written:

First of all i am looking a rom which is android 4 for this phone. I searched for that and i saw that there are some phones with android 4.0 which has the MT6573 cpu. Do you know are there any rom like this which i can install on it? Are gooapple v5 3g roms compatible to this phone?
Also i installed the usb drivers for this phone and rooted the device, but i cant reach the sd card from pc, in my computer there occurs a removable device but not accesible. What is the solution of this?
Thanks
first of all, there are no mt6573 based smartphones out there, running android 4.0 . maybe someone is porting ICS to the mt6573, but right now i can not find 4.0 for it. there are phones put there with faked Android version, such as 4.0.9 or something.
yes, you can install different Roms on your device, but you have to port them first.
I have no answer for your question, maybe the SD card has a switch for read only?
i used wrong rom and lost the system of the device, now i need correct rom, is there anyone who has correct rom of this?

i know this but this device is not gooapple
ahh sorry, my fault. i just flight over your post, it was late. mybe some aditional informaton ( pictures of the phone, the back, the back without battery...
those version numbers or names can be faked easily, it is hard to say what phone you have with the given information. greets, chris
you have to reflash your stock firmware.
i found the rom that works correct but i dont like ios interface on it. now i m looking for a rom which has android interface
use this tool to backup your current working firmware:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1683883
and upload your Rom somewhere ( i only need boot.img and system.img ). I'm interested in the IOS interface and i can port almost all available mt6573 ROM's to your device.
I am currently working on a custom Rom with Cyanogenmod Settings,DSP manager, ICS themed , ext2 support and much more.
if you are interested, i can make you a flashable zipfile.
w w w.4shared-china.com/rar/GyMPoJuc/mt6375-236gps_backup.html
this is the rom i m using on my phone, all .img files in it
i dont like ios interface because it has lots of differences from real ios interface, text characters, icons, menus have lots of mistakes
and also roms for this device work too slow, is it possible to make lite and android gui custom rom for this device?
look at the pictures in my last post, this is a custom ROM made by me. the Mt6573 isn't that fast, but i tried to make a fast ROM for it.
it is working pretty fast right now, no chinese apps and a lot of customization you can do . there are a lot of ROM's out there, some are good, some are pretty bad. like i said, i can make a flashable zip for your device, so you can try out my ROM.
i can try if you can make a zip for me, this would really help me
also i have another problem with the rom which i gave the link of it, the network problem
if the gsm signal become too low, restricted access changed - voice service blocked error occurs, in my home and office signal is too low so i cant use the phone, do you know any solution for this?
i will make one asap, maybe your networking problems are gone with my ROM. im from Germany, have no problems here with the signal at all.
maybe your smartphone is just ****ed up, we will see later.
you got these problem too, before you got the new ROM? maybe the Baseband drivers are wrong or something...
Press VOL + and power toegether, what Recovery shows up? a standart mediatek one or do you already have a custom recovery?
i didnt use the phone with sim card before this rom so i dont know
recovery screen is standard mediatek
there you go! this is a clockworkmod recovery for your phone. just flash it with Flashtool and try it out! flashing a new rom becomes pretty easy with it. hope it will work, give me a quick response if it isn't working.
edit:
some minor tips: dont flash the preloader in any case, this could damage your phone, if it is the wrong one!!!
and always make a backup of the existing images!
i flashed with flashtool and didnt flashed preloader, dsp_bl, changed the recovery.img with the one you gave, nothing changed same ios gui, did i do something wrong?
do you have whole new rom for this device which includes all the image files in it? the one i shared here is too slow and some problems
the file i given you is ONLY the recovery, after flashing try it out with phone off and hold VOL+ and POWER, the recovery screen shows up with clockworkmod recovery.
the fully rom ( including boot.img and system.img) needs more work, i haven't the time to do it yet. just give me a day for it. porting a Rom to a diffrent screenresolution needs more work, cause my device is 480x800 pixels, yours only 320x480. i have to say, there can be some failures because of the different resolution, but this can be fixed easily.
the custom recovery i gave you is necessary for flashing new roms easily.
HI everyone i actually downloading the android "L" factory image for nexus 5 but i want to port it to my htc one x using this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1908008 is it wanna working ?
up
I'm interested, too. Maybe I'll try it today. I don't think it will work though, as this is a major update
Think it just need to follow the tutorial but not sure it will run on the tegra 3 chipset... But wait, one of nexus 7 have tegra 3 but it's the 2012 version the developer preview not ported on it, only the 2013 version with snapdragon is supported.
i was trying to port it today with no succes it causes a bootloop (the weird color balls turning around ) if anyone can help me please i never ported rom before !
PS: in the factory image, all is compressed as .img files, it need to be converted to ext4, mounted with linux reader and put all the files in a folder
No luck for me either. I guess we'll have to wait for CM12
Hello guys.
I bought a Chinese phone it suppose to be ( Lenovo A8) but when i got the phone i found it where totally different on the Lenovo A8. and it come with android 4.2.2 so i tried to upgrade the phone to 4.4.2. and i found a ROM for CUBOT s208 run on my phone with some problems.
* Camera Not working, even there was no icon for camera.
* No wakeup and air gesture in this ROM but i was have them in my Original ROM.
* Notification light keep working all the time.
MY PHONE SPECS are( 1.3 cpu MTK 6582, 5 inch screen qHD, 8 gb ROM).
is there any programming way to make the phone working 100%.
Or can i get the Camera source code/driver from my Original ROM.
Regards and thanks.
Dose any body have the answer ?

Camera is not working because you are using ROM designed for some other device. I dont know what type of ROM you flashed, but you can find out about porting Cynagenmod ROM to your device at Cynagenmod's website :
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_porting_intro
BTW Jumping from one Android version to another just by flashing the ROM is risky business. If the preloader gets overwritten with mismatched type, you can hard-brick the phone.

Hi
I have a phone based on MTK6572 (HUAWEI Ascend Y330). I have root on it. But having only 512MB of RAM and a 4GB internal ROM (of which more than 2GB are occupied) I am definitely interested in flashing a custom ROM that is more lightweight and quicker. I couldn't find any custom ROM specific for my phone type/model, but there are some ROMs for other MTK6572-based phones. I can't post yet external links to show you what ROMs I am talking about, but on devs-lab.com site there is an article titled List of all Custom ROMs for MediaTek Mtk6572 Ext4 & Ubifs.
So I have two questions:
1) Is there any chance those custom ROMs work on my phone?
2) Having a full backup of my phone (made with CWM) am I 100% protected against bricking?
A. Your never completely save. Even nexus devices have been bricked.
2. Your best bet is a port. Might lighten it up but with that amount of ram it will still drag ass at times. That is hardly enough to run the os.
Anyone else can answer on question 1?
My device
Brand: O+ (Not a popular brand) search their site type Oplususa.com since I still can't post outside links
Model: 8.17
OS: 4.4.2 KK
Cores: 6 (hexa)
Custom Recovery: TWRP 2.8.2.0
MediaTek6591
Rooted
I've just ported a custom rom called Mystic OS to my phone's stock rom even though the rom is made for a device running on mtk6592 I still take the risk to flash it on my device. Luckily it worked but has a lots of bugs like can't use wifi, bluetooth, can't detect sd card etc. But I fixed this bugs by reading on some forums, but the only problem that I can't solve is the resolution of my camera, my camera should be in 8 mp but in this custom rom I think it is about 2 mp, it is said in the source of this custom rom that it may affect camera and the only solution is to go back to the stock rom of my device, But I don't want to go back to my stock rom because it performs poorly compared to this rom that I flashed, I think there is a solution in this problem probably a simple fix on some scripts in the system files I just don't know, I tried flashing some camera resolution enhancements from this site but still can't fix the problem , Any help will be appreciated thanks in advance
