Hi guys.
Got a brand new p9000 today.
Need a bit of help with some things.
I can't get the qi charging working. Tried 3 pads, loads of cables. All work with an S6 Edge and Nexus 7.
There is no options for any sort of notification led, plus there doesn't seem to be one active. Not when charging, email and texts arrive etc.
I've attached a screenshot of the kernal version, build etc.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Still no luck with this phone.
Cannot find any of the settings for led notification, pulse led or anything.
Qi charging is still not working.
Factory reset does not help.
Harlequin led in settings. If it is not there it is because your phone is on an unofficial rom. It you build reads the wrong date

Hmmmm.
I updated the phone straight out of the box through the wi-fi update app.
What's the latest official build number?

Managed to update to that rom about an hour ago!
Now have the options for notification LEDs, but they are broken in this version I understand.
No joy yet though with qi charging...

But of course, now the fingerprint sensor is not accessible at all, and the handset seems to have stopped charging...
Been into recovery and wiped cache and data.
Still no fingerprint sensor, and charging seems to have stopped.[emoji47]

Yep, it's completely FUBAR now. No fingerprint, almost stopped charging. IMEI numbers have been wiped...
All from official ROMs flashed from official elephone site.
The POS is going back to China....

I ended up sorting this by re-installing a rom with the build number Elephone_P9000_E_20170401
Got fingerprint back and wired charging is back again. Note the "E" in the rom build. Any rom without this "E" did NOT work. My handset is branded as a P9000, but doesnt have QI charging or NFC.
Have i been sent the wrong handset? A clone? Who knows.....

I think we are cheated same with me
QI charging works fine with a cheap charger of ebay.
The phone is a bit picky that you position it just right on the pad , but there is good reason why it shouldn't work ... mine does.
I think NFC needs have a recognised licence from the provider and because it is to all intents and purposes a Chinese unknown
It doesn't work.
SKY GO would not work for the same reason.
SKY deals with the big players and Elephone is not one of them.

Hi guys,
I just bought Motorola Razr XT910 GSM and i was looking for simple guide on rooting/installing custom ROMs but with no success.
Infos about my phone are:
System version:
672.180.41.XT910.NonEFIGSRetail.en.EU
Baseband version:
U_04.10.00R
Build number:
6.7.2-180_SPU-19-TA-11.6
I was wondering what is the simplest way (step by step guide would be nice) to install leaked OTA 4.1.2 ?
Is that version stable with GSM patch?
Currently i have clean stock ICS 4.0.4 on it. No root no nothing.
Just to mention i'm linux user, if there is a way to root and install 4.1.2 from linux that would be good if not i'll find some windows machine to do that!
Thanks

Is anyone else facing this problem , has plagued me since my 2.3.6 days. And since your phone is new, thought I'd ask.
The screen picks up all sorts of mis-correct inputs when pugged into the AC mains, especially noticeable when texting in any app. This happends to a lesser extent when using the USB port. Had this phone for 6 months now. Am using the OG charger of course. Strange one may think but is this a general widespread problem ? This is the only problem holding me back from rooting and getting the JB ball rolling. BTW, had 2 razr's so I have two AC adaptors. Tried both.
If this is a digitizer problem as someone did indicate once somewhere, I'm regret ever having bought this phone. Have had to refrain from using it while charging. And if so, am going to push for a different device. Didn't buy a dysfunctional phone, for sure
Service Center means a LOT of downtime and I cannot even backup app data as I haven't root. Can anyone help me here?
Thanks !
PS :
Here's claims to back me up. If so, has anyone successfully replaced their product ? I wouldn't mind an HD given that I did pay full RRP.
for no reason my Razr will suddenly start going crazy. Random buttons will be pressed on the screen like someone is trying to hack into it (but I know they are not). Because of the random key presses, apps will open and close super fast. The only way to stop it is to power down and power it back up. Which after I do that, it's fine

Researched the issue months ago and learned there seems to be an issue with the digitizer (that's the piece of glass and components that identify your swipes). I thought it was only with certain earlier versions of the Droid, so am disappointed to hear you're having trouble with the Razr. Some folks have reported sending it back to Motorola, and $200 later, it's fixed. While early sufferers were Motorola users, I just read a post where someone is having the same issue with an HTC Eris...
I suggest returning your phone for a new one

I had same issue when i plug it in wall cord, i cant click on anything precise, its the charger, i use one that came with my nexus 7 and have no trouble using phone while charging. I didnt test it on USB port, but im sure its charger problem. Try another charger!
I havent bought my phone new, its used one but in perfect condition!
Also i should have mention that i had same problem with Galaxy I7500 (first samsung galaxy device, not the tablet its phone) couple years ago and also with Galaxy S3 (my brothers phone). Same problems occured when using some chargers. Try swaping chareges until you find one that fits
Maybe i'm wrong but thats what helped me.

Same with me. Ditched the moto charger and I use a Blackberry charger. Never had a repeat of the issue again, and it used to happen a lot on the Motorola charger.
What is "BP TOOLS" and where can i find that ??

Could it be a grounds issue?
FlipMorten said:

Click to expand...

I hope not. Don't see why a 5.2V device needs grounding. And if anything .. the screen is glass.. It's capacitive in nature to a small extent. Built up charge should not do what it does. The USB off my MSI mobo and ASUS is filtered and grounded.. Even they do this to an admittedly lower frequency.
The Moto charger puts out a healthy 1A if I'm not mistaken. Not trading that in for some POS BB charger- It's 800mAh the one lying around at a lower 5V rating. That's going to mess things up in the long run-- higher voltage and amperage charging is faster and gets to the full capacity of the battery- the voltage has a say when it comes to lithium batteries.
Anyone here get a replacement from Moto if they had the same issue? Does you think its worth a try?
Thanks for the replies:good:
I had a Milestone (a GSM variant of the Droid) and it had the very same issue. However, it had a metal frame - upon touching it the issue was instantly alleviated.
Sent using a touch screen
Napisane na ekranie dotykowym
So this works out to an inherent flaw with this screen? I had a SAMOLED on my OG Wave and it never messed up {ever} must have been the metal body. Nevertheless, The razr is FUBAR when charging. Had an S2 for a while, never cropped up despite having a similar screen panel. Think I should just file a complaint and get the ball rolling here? Though service (Moto) is terrible in my country, and I don't think they've even launched the Razr HD here. I'd rather pick it over the S3.
WIshful thinking!
Hello,
I have a Samsung Galaxy s6 Edge G925F with custom rom, i have a problem with my sensor.
I turn my auto-brightness in ON and nothing chang, it's always stay at the same level of brightness, i tested it, if it was a hardware problem with calling "*#0*#" but not, it work perfectly in that.
and for the proximity sensor, when i call someone, the screen turn automaticaly in black, same think, i tried to test hardware, it's work, when i call someone with What's App for exemple, it's work, but it's not work with phone dialer.
(Sorry for my bad english, i'm french)
Can someone help me ? I tried an other rom, same problem, other bootloader / modem, same again.
Same issue here! Don't know what the problem is. Sensor is working when being tested, but somehow system is not receiving that info. Factory reset did not help either. I am on stock everything (5.1.1).
and you have no problem with brightness in mode auto ?
Auto brightness is not working either. It is always at same output value, no matter what I do. And also navigation buttons are not lighting up anymore.
Phone is all stock. Not sure if I should try with other roms...

Oh, we have the exact same problem, I just noticed that, my softkey lighting doesn't work too.
Have you got a problem like that, you put your headset's jack into your phone, and It's not detected by your phone ? İ have that issue too, I bought a jack, dock replacement for replace this part, I will tell you what happening next.
I saw your thread, did you disassembly your s6 ? By you or other guys.
If you find any solution to this problem please report it here and I will do the same. Hope we will be able to fix it .

I just checked this, and unfortunately it's not working...not recognized by the phone . Guess it's identical problem.
I did not touch any internals...just sent this phone for repairs, but they did not fix it because they found out that someone was already open it before. Now I do not know what to do.

Yes, as I wrote in my original thread phone had a problem with faulty battery. It was refurbished phone and seller stated that it has 2 years of manufacturer warranty, but as it turned out warranty was void because someone damaged that battery before and tried to fix it with some tape.
btw. everything else was working fine before we sent the phone for service. When they returned it all these problems started. I have ordered new battery and will replace that by my own I guess because Samsung is not responding to our messages. I guess my girlfriend will have to live with these issues if we are not able to fix them...
if you think your auto brightness is not working check out this app. If that doesn't work then your sensors are faulty/defective and contact Samsung support or your authorized reseller

As we mentioned already...every sensor checking app is reporting that senors are working just fine. I removed the battery so can't try this app right now, but will definitely check as soon as I can, thanks.
Update regarding my situation: Since everything failed to fix this device or receive our money back, I decided to open the phone and check if anything else is wrong with it (besides battery) and guess what...audio jack port was completely broken. Plugging in headphones was working before it went to official repair centre, and now I know they broke it. But still I can't do anything about it because Samsung is refusing to fix it. My best bet is to replace that part together with battery and live with other issues.
Worst service I have ever experienced...
Ok so, I will receive this replacement part (jack) this week, I hope it will fix the other problems too.
I'll tell you what happen after that.

Same here! Just replaced and packed everything up few minutes ago. Working great!! Finally! I'm glad we managed to fix this one ...
Just dry up the edges. Try to blow the corners. It is just a little bit wet because the corners have little gaps that let water and dust in. I blow dried my phone and it fixed the problem. If you try to wipe screen with water and it gets inside the edges, problem comes back again
Ich have the same problem. But how can it be a hardware issue when the sensors are working in test module? I don't want to send it in :/
Mine was having this exact problem and was solved by an update I didn't know existed. Go to where you find your updates and download any available. Mine worked great again afterwards. If that doesn't work, Try clearing your cache partition.

Hey guys,
I'm on my second Cam Plus module, and I have no idea how to make it work, or what I should expect.
I've attached it to my phone, and charged it for 5+ hours. During the first two hours I didn't see any LEDs on the Cam Plus. After two hours it started flashing red to indicate charging (I think?).
I've never had it change from red flashing LED.
The Cam Plus firmware update just shows the same "Connect a Cam Plus to check for Updates" message with the module attached. The LG Friends app sees the device and lists it as connected. I've not been able to get the module to do anything, or have any buttons work in the LG Camera app. Moving the bottom switch seems to not do anything.
Am I crazy here, or is this second unit defective? Am I just doing it wrong?
Thanks guys, any help is appreciated.
I just picked up a brand new lg g5 with the cam plus and I'm having the same issue!
Just received mine yesterday. Make sure you have the correct model number for your lg g5. Mine is ATT and is only compatible with the cbg-720 model. The other model cbg-700 is for all over lg g5s.
Also the module does not work when USB is plugged in. Hope this helps.
I'm on my 3rd and second G5 phone. None have worked so far. I called lg and they told me theres no troubleshooting for the camplus. They are aware that there is a problem though.
I call them every week, this week will be the fifth time.
Sent from my LG-H831 using Tapatalk
Yeah there's no specific trick to making it work. I just plugged it in and pressed the buttons and it worked.
Mine showed a red led once it has been used as it's then charging your battery but that's it.
I just bought a G5 and Cam Plus yesterday. I have the exact same problem as OP. Has charged it for 12Hr+ and the Cam Plus LED is still a flashing red.
Edit: As mentioned above, you probably need the CBG700 to work, since this one works with all carriers other than AT&T. I have the CBG720 and I am using Bell that is probably the problem. Will take it back to the store tomorrow and see if I can exchange for a 700 and see if it works.
The cam plus is a total flop to me... Only uses battery to charge phone when using camera, weird glitches where it never seems to fully charge and I've had 2 die when plugged in tonthe wrong charger...
If any of you paid for it, I'd return it ASAP.
H831 here running on Bell and having the same DOA with the cam plus. I went out and purchased 2 other CBG-720 cam units at different stores and no dice (returned them both right away). What a waste of time. Wondering if someone running H831's can confirm if the other cam plus model (CBG-700) works?
My CamPlus was bundled from Telus, it's the 720 model. Just got my third unit, it's flashing red while presumably charging right now, doesn't do anything else.
What SHOULD happen?
Hey everyone!
I just signed up to reply to this one.
Having the same issues as everyone else (can charge the phone, but only getting a blinking red light on the camplus. also where the lg friends app was not able to detect the camplus), but I've managed to make mine work.
Just make sure you got the latest firmware (they had a release this August, around 500mb in size)
For its first use, the camplus needs that version of the firmware to boot up to.
Kinda weird why lol
Btw, when you get a blinking red light during charging it means the camplus hasn't been booted up.
You should be expecting a mellow red/ sorta yellow, non-blinking light.
When I got my g5 from Telus they gave me the camplus and it never worked, returned it and tried 3 different units brand new from Telus And none worked, the LG rep was at the store that day and none worked for he either on her g5. I ended up getting credit back for that bonus item
even when you get it working it's rubbish mine is back in the box in a cupboard. But if it helps, after speaking to lg, you need friends manager and camplus manager from the app store, plug in the module, run both apps, restart the phone if it says connect the module it may find an update. after this it should work and even charge when not attached to the phone.
hope this helps

My Cam Module stopped working after a software update. I pressed the video record and sliding on/off switch for 3 seconds. The led start blinking green, amber and red. I rebooted the phone and launched the LG Friends app to re-pair the LG Cam Plus. It works again. This procedure must hard reset the module.
Cam Plus help
Hi,
After doing a dumb thing and purchasing the Cam Plus for my G5, I found that I purchased the wrong MPN. I have purchased the correct one now, but would like to know what country and carrier so I can sell the wrong one. Manufacturer's part # is TMON64673. LG has only told me to go to every countries LG site and check the model #. Off hand any advice you can give would be appreciated.

Hey. Just make sure you update the phone first to the latest version, then put in the CAM.
Afaik, the CAM won't be updating. It just needs an updated phone for it to work.

getting cam plus to work
I finally got my cam plus to charge. Apparently the battery locks when it is fully discharged, you have to attach it to the phone and charge for about 5 minutes, but apps have to be up to date for this to work, got no light or flashing red light at first. Flashing red light started once I installed lg friends manager app. The cam plus app will not see the module either. I think I did press the camera on button and the video button on the cam plus for 3 seconds before it started to flash on one of the phones, I had 2 that did not work.
If you get the flashing red light it is not charging, what you need to do is update your lg5 by going to settings>general>about phone>update centre>app updates then do the updates. Once I did this the module started to get a solid red light and started the charge. You can then remove from phone and charge cam plus on it's own then and you should get a solid green light when charged.
Hope this helps.
I had the same problem. Go to youtube and look for a video entitled 'LG G5 Cam Plus fix (how to overcome the flashing red LED of death problem )'. Follow this guys instructions and you should have a functioning Cam Plus that you don't want to punch anymore.
Kudos to the guy who posted the video for persevering and getting an answer from LG.
I hope this helps because I know how aggravated I was by the whole thing, especially after having to send back the G5 SE as it doesn't have RAW capability. It took ages to get the phone and set up I wanted. Anyway, it's all been worth it 'cos it's a cracking wee piece of kit.

I didn't forget, as a new contributor I am unable to post links. I'm sorry you had difficulty finding the youtube post, I thought I had provided adequate information to navigate to it quickly. If you have any further issues just ask your Mum to help you.
Oh, and by the way, you're welcome.
Hi there.
I'm planning on buying this phone however I've been reading that AA doesn't work on MIUI when connected to the car. I'm find with unlocking the bootloader and flashing a custom rom if that works. Is there any rom where AA is actually working when connected to the headunit? I searched around but couldn't find a direct answer.
Thanks

Still having issues with the Waze GPS though
But does ir work in any custom?
Someone had any luck with MirrorLink?
I could not see AA on my girlfriend's Citroen C3
Android auto works on all the custom roms I've tried, but not fully. All have an issue where after a while of being plugged in to the car, the icons on the black bottom bar on the cars screen will disappear and the phone gets blocked, with only a black screen and totally unresponsive, and there's no way to unlock it, so only solution is to force reboot the phone.
So far, no solution has been discovered...
Thanks for sharing the experiences everyone. I'll hold off on buying for now, I use AA every day so losing that doesn't work for me. I really wish this phone came with stock Android like my current A2.

You don't really lose it... Even though the icons disappear on the screen, you can still press where they're supposed to be at and it'll work throughout the whole journey... Only downside is once your journey is over, no other option but to reboot the phone in order to be able to use it normally again. Other than that, the Poco is a great phone, specially with a custom Rom on it (Miui is not my cup of tea, really...)
BTW, seems AA is finally fixed on latest Miui (pie). Tried it yesterday and no issues over an hour long drive...
Hopefully whatever Miui devs did to fix it gets implemented on custom roms, too... ?
New one
Better cameras
Better fast charging
Better screens
Better snapdragon
Is anybody ordered? From where?
Giztop maybe?
I just placed an order at Trading Shenzhen. They're usually a bit cheaper than Giztop and offer Global shipping with no added import duties. I bought the Find N with them and do far I'm satisfied.
Thanks for the tip... Looking now...

I ordered mine through Wonda Mobile. Just received it yesterday. I have google play services installed and everything seems to be working fine so far. I have not tested Android Auto yet, but normally it won't work on CN ROM phones.

Yeah, Android Auto doesn't work. The error message says that it was not pre-installed. It must be bundled with the operating system.
Anyone else getting a message saying “Messages” wants to send a payment request message…….
When using Google messages as default messages app? I’m getting that error every time I mention something involving money like “I got a visa gift card for Christmas”
Anyone know how to turn that off or any work around?
Running latest software

It's great device. Nice having a compact Foldable that's not a Flip.

I got the green one. I'm coming from a rooted Xiaomi Mix Fold 2. At first, it got super annoying going back to the CN strict-heavy rom but, it doable in the US
Cons:
- Launchers still don't work without work around.
- Google messages doesn't send messages to non-RCS users if you send a message with hot words that have to do with money.
- Only 5 apps can be locked (running fully in the background, auto startup from boot) at a time.
- Even if notifications are set AND you chose to never revoke access, some apps still won't send notifications unless you mess with the setting again (usually toggle on/off)
-default messaging app doesn't allow group sms (all messages are recieved separately)
Pros:
- super duper compact and perfect in every way (hardware wise)
- 5g is a major go (reason why I sold my first oppo find n)
- everything else not listed above runs super smoothly (in California, on TMobile)
- Pictures are really good and videos too
I have my Xiaomi watch running on it fine, when my notifications don't work on the phone sometimes, it always does on the watch.
Unboxing was crazy, holding the little green hulk felt perfect. Really hope a global rom gets released or someone finds a way to root this phone.

I went with the black one cause of vegan leather material, I know it's fake leather but it feels good and had a better grip on it.

The price for N2 and Mix Fold 2 are more or less the same. Which do you prefer? Really tempted to order one of these two foldables.
