[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Claudyu:
Thank you very much. It works.

1. After you unpack the archive the Z800_2.2GG_FLV01.01B16_生产版本 folder must be renamed to Z800_2.2GG_FLV01.01B16

2. The steps were correct but I don`t know how to verify that it`s rooted

3. Like you said it didn`t work on my Win 7 x64 so I went to my neighbor who had Win XP

4. I put 11111111111111 when it asked for serial number and it worked so it doesn`t matter indeed

5. Proximity senzor not working at all

6. Android keyboard missing (Sogou Input instead)

7. The name of the operators still doesn`t appear in notifications just like before. There are just some numbers: 22610 for Orange and 22603 for Cosmote

8. USSD code for Cosmote still not working. *123*2# - This is for showing me how many messages I have left on Cosmote.

I will test different applications so I can see what's working and I`m waiting for updated firmwares from you. Thanks again. You`ve been very helpful. There should be more people like you.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Ubiquitous_Nothing:
Thank you for comment.

I'm just translating information from Russian topic. And giving my experience of using this phone.

2. To verify rooting i'd install Root Explorer and now it is possible to set RW parametr on system folders. Some application start workig after changing firmware, before this apps said that root permission missed.

5. Yes, proximity sensor is not used by interface in this firmware.

6. Android keyboard are able to be selected. For example, open messages and choose creating of new SMS then made long press on text field and tap "select input method" appeared, you need to choose "Guboi alphabetic..."

7th & 8th problems are nod fixed yet

Hello everyone, I have the same phone and when I was trying to root it start making problems and then it's not booting anymore, so this firmware is very important to me, I'm in United Arab Emirates and it's almost impossible to download from Rapidshare. So can anyone be kind and upload both of the firmware to any other site midiafire will be great if possible
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Claudyu:
http://www.mediafire.com/?ptgu7rdps2gjd22

http://www.mediafire.com/?5j53v5x0zg6zc1c

At the end just wait until it doesn`t do anything anymore(just be patient), then unplug the cable, put the battery and power it on(don`t put the battery with the cable pluged, you could distroy the battery). The booting will take a little longer than before.

If you can root it, please tell me how you did it..
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] zaweel:
Thank you so much Claudyu for uploading it to Mediafire I download it with no problems at all, Special thanks also for Ubiquitous_Nothing for this Firmware I look every whare in the net with no luck to find this firmware.

I will try to flash the ROM and let you know if I can root it.

Thank you again.

I get the phone to boot, but the touch screen is not working, did any one face a problem with the screen?

All th e keys is working, but the touch screen is not working, any help please
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Ubiquitous_Nothing:
I think that it may be hardware problem. I heard about bad contact of touch panel cords with the mainboard. It's not so difficult to unscrew 4 screws and detach faceplate from skeleton to check it.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Claudyu:
you can try with both system.img to see which one is working for you. I didn`t had any problems at all...retry with the other system.img
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] zaweel:

And with the last version of firmware I can add my gmail account, I can even search for applications in Android market but I can`t download anything. Why is that?

Ubiquitous_Nothing, can you tell me how to put Stock Android keyboard on this phone? And how can I uninstall Aldiko and other useless stock apps? I came across this: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/moto-droid/106510-2-1-android-keyboard-apk-voice-text.html

Did anyone tried this?

And for root what do I have to do? I tried Super one click on Win XP but didn`t work. You said something about Root Explorer on the phone...I`m confused.

Installation unsuccessful

I have same problems...

I flash the new firmware: Z800_XN_P800_HVGA_2.2GGV01.01B20_FL_CUST and i can't install any keyboard from market. I get the message: "Installation unsuccessful".

I also get the same message when i'm trying to install and other apps such as rockplayer etc...

I tried to install manually the apks but i get the message "application not installed"

i tried to clear cache and data from market, unmount and format the sd card and still nothing...

Can anyone help me please because i'm searching for an answer for months....
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SKSum:
Thanks & some questions

I'm using the P800 mobile. But I found that it just the OS 2.0 after I brought it (The HK shop sales lie me it is 2.2). So I found, and found, and found but no upgrade ROM for this phone. Until visit post, thanks Ubiquitous_Nothing who post the 2.2 ROM's link here. Now my phone is truly got the 2.2 system.

But I still have some problems with it.

First one is, I can sync my email through APN or Wifi. And also with the official Google Docs after I install it. But my Google Calender & Contact can't. Is it the ROM's (or the phone's) problem, or it is because my setting have something wrong? How can I make it (the sync) function? (I'm sure my phone have sync function. It works fine with not only GMail & Docs, but also SugarSync, Dropbox, Evernote & some others. In the SETTING -> ACCOUNT & SYNC, it only shows the Gmail & Docs, but no Contacts & Calender.)

Second, is this phone can't active GPS? Whatever I use APN or Wifi, indoor or outdoor, the search location still can't find my place. Can I fix it?

Third, some applications I use on my PC also have Android apps. Like, Firefox, Keepass etc, can't install into my P800 (Market said It is not compatible). As I know some apps not compatible are because of the resolution. But this phone have 320x480 screen. Is it any other reasons cause that the phone can't compatible with these apps? Can I fix it? (As I had found some older version is still not work.)

Fourth, I'm using Vodafone (HK) mobile provider. But my SIM card installed into this phone, it can't show the network correctly but display the name as "45406". As I have another SIM for China still display a "NUMBER" name. It make me confuse with what network I'm using. How to make it to show the name correctly?

Thanks again with all persons who work hard to this ROM, and especially Ubiquitous_Nothing post it for us. Thanks.

Tried new FW v2

I'd tried the new firmware ver2.0 last night and found that it was seems not rooted system.ini. So some apps need rooted system can't be install.

In my first post, the first question seems like my problem I believed. Those contacts & calender seems use the Exchange Server to sync data and I didn't setup that server before. But in the Firmware ver1.6 rooted system.ini. I can't found where to setup the Exchange Server. And I will try it.

The Second, Third and Fourth questions still the same.

Because some necessary apps need rooted system, so I go back to rooted fw ver1.6 and wait for the new rooted fw release. Thanks.

Some investigation results

Hi all,

I have the P800/Z800 since about a week and was able to find out a couple of facts that should shed some light on the problems you all had.

First and foremost, I think I found out the reason why lots of application from the Market won't install on this device, and the bad news is that most of those will never install. The reason is that, unlike MTK6516 devices, the CPU in the P800 is not an ARM variant, but a MIPS-based one (at leat according to Phone Tester and similar tools that report CPU ABI to be mips). This means it's fundamentally incompatible with majority of the devices on the market, which usually use some sort of ARM CPU. While Android OS running on top shields the user from the CPU most of the time (as the apps are written in Java and run by the Dalvik virtual machine), any application written using Android NDK and compiled for ARM CPU won't even install. This includes probably large portion of the games in the Market and essentially all rooting toolkits out there. Even worse, this is not going to improve with any future firmware.

Other than that this is pretty decent phone, definitely faster than MTK6516 devices, and with pretty nice bright screen. Unlike on the MTK6516 device I tested earlier the version of Angry Birds included in the phone was running without ugly dithering and lowered resolution, which is definitely an improvement (won't install any other Angry Birds version from the market though). I don't know if this is a firmware or hardware issue, but the screen doesn't seem to support multitouch (despite being capacitive) -- the stock browser somehow emulates pinch-to-zoom, but e.g. Dolphin browser does not, and Phone Tester only reports one touch to be detected.

I'm running B20 firmware now (rooted one would be nice, but lack of proximity sensor was no-go for me as I kept activating speaker, muting or disconnecting calls all the time by simply holding the phone next to my ear). I will try to work out some way to root it using 'su' binary from the B16 FW, but no promises, as I'm pretty new to the whole thing. Any support here would be welcome, I'd especially appreciate a contact to the person that originally prepared the B16 rooted firmware as I'm struggling a bit with the technical details.

On the keyboard front I was able to find one free multilingual keyboard package that was working with P800: FireKeys, aka Auto Text Keyboard Lite (you need to search the Market as the forum won't allow me to post links yet).

Cheers, D.

Hi All,

I bought recently a P800. I liked it, everything ok for me, I also upgrade it ver2.0. but my phone doesnt connect to internet. I made its Apn settings, then tried with Apn widgets but still it doesnt connect. I used to connect via same sim card my old symbian phone. do you have any suggestions ? And GPS doesnt work anywhere.

thanks in advance
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dziadekfelek:
Since I re-flashed and re-configured the phone a gazillion times already, here's a little hint to the APN configuration: first, the APN needs to be selected after it's defined (it's unselected by default, and I missed it more than once). Second, it helps to switch the airplane mode on and then off -- apparently it needs some nudge to re-read the mobile network configuration. After that, if the APN settings are correct for your net, it usually works like a charm.

Didn't test GPS yet though.

New FW

Hi again,

thanks to my (very basic) Russian I was able to find that our Eastern colleagues already combined root and B20 image. New system.img can be found here (remove the spaces): http :// narod.ru/ disk/ 18919525001/ system.img.7z.html.

I flashed the image yesterday the usual way, proximity sensor works (yay!), most of the Chinese apps and keyboards are removed (except games), additionally it includes Root Explorer and English/Russian keyboard by default. Root Explorer is especially useful as it allows manipulating system apps on the fly. No problems detected so far other than already known in stock B20 image.

Cheers, D.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] eralis:
thanks a lot dziadekfelek I saw I forgat to choose in double sim which sim should be used for internet :) Its working now perfect. I have an other question to all, I flashed the last firmware, but ı dont know does it means I have rooted also my phone ? I wanted to install some aplications but it doesnt work like z4root and LBE privacy guard. ıt says the apllication is not installed,

cheers
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dziadekfelek:
They haven't, and I as wrote before they most probably won't -- the phone is based on a completely different processor architecture, this won't matter for programs written in pure Java, but any binary component and the app is simply not compatible with the device. Unfortunately there is no info in the market, so trial and error is the only option.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dziadekfelek:
z4root includes binary library (libandroidterm.so) compiled for ARM-EABI, and several binaries (su, busybox) also compiled for ARM. It won't install, and even if it would it wouldn't work.

The latest system.img image I posted about couple of days earlier is rooted.

P800 problem

Hi, recently I bought P800. It come with newest ROM update Z800_XN_P800_HVGA_2.2GGV01.01B20_FL_CUSTOMER. I have put the rooted one post in this forum. Everything works fine, Wi-Fi, GPS and so on, but.... it blocks very often. First blocks the accelerometer and after it camera, phone.

I deleted the camera application and it looks good. But when the phone start to block it was the cherry on the top. I can't stop conversation and I need to pull out the battery.

I tried old software versions but it si all the same. I start so suppose that it is hardharre defect.

If no one have the same problem I will know that I'm right.

If somebody have the same problem, please help if you can.

Thanks.

It's cool that Samsung updated Galaxy S to latest android OS pretty soon. But I hate the fact that Sammy removed all the cool factors of AOSP Android 2.3 from it. It looks like Froyo. No Gingerbread keyboard, no black notification bar, nothing to differentiate from Sammy's Froyo.

1.) Recalibrate your battery once
