On my A9, suddenly the camera flash stopped working..Tried reseting and going to *#36# test screen..No success...Is the Flash IC bad? or is there some software related issue that I can fix myself?

Well, for those guyz who were expecting something new for A9 from me, I am sorry...

I was off the track of development and I am still.

Due to some very genuine problem like less concentration on studying and thus got low %.

Thats why I stopped and started learning basic programming languages which actually is syllabus for my IT degree. So guyz, Enjoy New Year 2K14...

and Welcome & support new devs like Mrinal Roy, who are enthusiastic about this android stuff to work on. Thank You.

Moto E has lots of development...

Already got SlimKat(4.4.4) / CyanogenMod 11(4.4.4) / BeanStalk(4.4.4) Custom ROMs..

we may get Android L(5.0) in 2 to 3 days.

One of friend's Karbonn A9 (not A9+) is showing "ENTRY QPST DOWNLOAD" on startup. :crying:

I tried Splinter Cell HD by installing it via SD card and it works pretty decent. So am not sure whether it can play all games or not. But the Google Play store shows the games you mentioned as incompatible and does not allow installing them.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
Thanks for the update mate,

This game is indeed graphics sensitive.

Yes the Play Store will show some games and apps incompatible with your mobile as it doesn't recognize this handset.

This means this is a real deal

Happy with A9

Friends yesterday i play full day games on my A9 from morning 9 am to evening 6 pm n m really happy that my phone discharge n gos off at 10 pm in night so its great to see a very very good battery backup provided by karbonn to a9 with 1600mAH n its true.

But it having one issue regarding contact that only i seen in china phones so please some one try to solve this because it decrease the impression of this device

So the problem is,,

If you store some ones no in your contacts

eg.Mr.X 94XXXXXXXX

and if he call you

the phone shows Unknown Number +9194XXXXXXXXX

so if i save same no again with +9194XXXXXXXXXX

display indicates Mr.X

i want to say that if saved no and incoming no if match then only phone shows the person name so please tell me solution for that

is there any contact regarding software which solve this problem?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
Try this:

It worked for me in Motorola Charm,

Settings > Language and Keyboard > Select default language to English (UK) if there.

Or English (India)

Let me know if this helps
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
Hello All,

Thank you all for so much contribution. Kindly keep contributing the same way.

As this is an Indian make handset (Korean Re brand) not much attention is gained.

But we sure can make something out of this excellent piece of set.

It can be said similar to Samsung Galaxy S looking at the specs.

So for better understanding and making things easy for our friends I have gathered all the problems and solutions for this handset and posted them on the first page along with crediting the original poster.

If I have missed someone or something kindly PM me.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pankmohan:
thanks bro but there is only on default language English (United State) available no other optional language so any other way?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=26628898&postcount=10

You need an alternate language pack to be installed.

Try finding English (India) or (UK)

You can try this app if it works for you:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.co.c_lis.ccl.morelocale

Also you may need to save the number as you stated in +91 format, as its a dual sim it has that functionality to recognize the contact. I doubt there might be any solution
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pankmohan:
thanks bro but not working we have to add language pack in ROM i think

hi everyone

love this phone and waiting for root . i have tried z4root universal androot and superoneclick , none of them worked and didnt found perfect usb drivers for this handset . does anyone have proper usb drivers , i request u to post the drivers link and rooting link , rom link

by the way can we install micromax a75 rom on this device , coz i love the micromax user interface , especially the dialer which doesnt ask sim1 or sim2 everytime . does anyone know a dialer through which we can make calls without bugging of sim .

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
to play 3D games you don't need to root or make any change

if google play shows your handset not compatible simply download the .apk file for the game and SD data and pare both on mobile google for this

you can play games this way the one you like

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lvgandhi:
This is my first post in this forum and thread.

First I thank this thread starter prasad and other posters.

I bought this phone a few days back. Though I ordered on 23rd May at Naaptol, material was received only on 1st May. This is my first android phone.

I have a few queries.

1)How do I save contacts, calendar, apps in Micro SD card?

2)How do I download apps from Google market in SD card?

3)How do I connect to internet my PC or laptop using A9 with airtel 3g with USB?

4)Is there any generic manual for android phones which I can use to know A9 or translated ktouch manual in English?

5)How do Sync my calender and contacts only not mail with my GMail? I tried individual sync of calender. It worked. But contacts sync, though phone was tryimg. Finally no contacts were imported from Gmail.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
You cannot save contacts in SD card.

You can backup them if you want by using applicaiton My Backup Pro

For Apps to SD, you cant move all the apps to SD but some. Use the Market App: App2SD Free It will tell you which apps can be moved to SD card.

Not all apps can be downloaded to SD card as i said earlier, you need to either move them manually or some remain on Phone memory by default.

If laptop having WIFI, enable it. And from mobile.

Settings > Wireless networks> Tethering> enable WIFI hotspot.

You can use your mobile net on PC.

My first post has a download link from Karbonn official site. You will get the manual there.

Unable to understand your problem.:confused:

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lvgandhi:
First thanks for immediate response.

1) Regarding internet connection to PC, I would like to do it using USB cable not wifi as my PC does not have any wifi card. What is mobile net on PC.

2) I went to the link in Karbonn site. When I select A9 and submit, no link appears in browser for manual. Am I missing something?

3)In settings/account @Sync/manage accounts, mail id clicking shows various menu options like sync Google photos, sync contacts, sync calendar, sync gmail etc. sync calendar synchronizes calender in phone. but sync contacts does not synchronize contacts in phone.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] darbhadinesh:
In contacts menu, press settings menu, from there you can choose import/export contacts.

use my phone explorer, to backup phone, i..e, to sync contacts and all.

Prasad, just to correct myself splinter cell does not play as the game should. It shows the central character and his manoeuvres correctly but most of the background sas white. Checked some videos to check that. Though the problem could be it was a cracked app for desire hd and hence didnt play correctly.

Frontline commando though is working neatly and a charm.

Also note sites with flash 10 do not show flash content and adobe does not allow installing it on this fone for want of vector fpu processor.

Also let me know any way to check whether this cell supports html5 as web iss moving towards it.

"when audio jack is plugged in the music playr stops playng aftr sometime on its own. initially thought it was som task killer but latr when i stopped all task killing apps the problem was still there"

please help me regardng these issues. i'll be really thankful to u...........
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
thanks for your views for this handset

well you might have already checked but are the calender reminders on?

try u using camera 360, or any alternate camera app. and tell us your results

for the audio jack issue try clearing the music player app data once

if nothing works, if there is an option of factory reset, do it but i don't recommend that
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] quasar93:
thanks 4 the reply

i've added reminders.thats not the problem.somethng wrong with handset. time is also getting reset :( i think i've to go to the service center n camera 360 is better. n did u find any rooting procedure??

First folder has installdriver.exe.

I installed it.

Second folder had a few .inf files and debugview.exe. I tried all.

But still when I plug in A9 with USB cable, nothing is recognized.

After installing this KOusik wired tethering was installed. Still PC tethering did not see phone.

Any one successful in wired USB tethering kindly advice?

Secondly in link given for Karbonnmobiles site for manuals, I could not see any materials.

Transfer all Application to SD Card

I have Successfully completed this for my A9 and here i want to share procedure in simple way

Credit to the original poster.I just modify it little bit for easy operation

1. Download the SDK from here- Android SDK | Android Developers

2. Extract using something like WinRar

3. Copy the second folder into the sdk named "android-sdk-windows" to the desktop.

4. Open the folder on the desktop and open the file, SDK Manager.exe (as no such file as setup.exe exists in the new version of the SDk)

5. Close the command / windows command prompt window that opens

6. Untick all options you are promted to download except ones like the manuals, and Essentially, ensure the USB driver option is selected / ticked.

7. Let these files download

8. Ensure on your phone, USB Debugging is on - Go to Settings/Applications/Development/USB Debugging and ensure its ticked / on.

9. Download and install HTC Sync from HTC's website for your device.

10. Connect your phone by USB and select the HTC sync option when it pops up with charge only, disk mode etc.

11. Allow the sync to complete.

12. Open windows command promt. Start / Run

13. Type in (without quotations) "cmd"

14. The following should appear. (with your user account instead of William - note its "users" in windows 7, not documents and settings

15. Type in the following after the ">" at each step (without quotations,and including spaces and capital letters)

"cd desktop\android-sdk-windows\tools" (might be "cd Program Files\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools" in windows 7)

After this Only type words given below one by one and press ENTER at each Step

"adb devices"

"adb shell"

A $ sign should pop up

"pm setInstallLocation 2"

Another $ should pop up

And your done. Close everything, disconnect phone, turn off phone and then turn it back on again.

16. Now the phone will be set to install all apps you install onto the SD card. However, current apps on phone will mostly still be stored on the internal memory. This process doesn't move these apps for you, it adds the ability. So you must now manually move those already installed on the phone.

To do this, go to settings / applications / manage applications

Then you just click on an app, and the move to SD card box should no longer be Grey. So you must now move all the apps you want onto the SD Card.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
Good work mate.

But remember dont move apps whose widgets you want to use,

Else you cant set widgets.

Now you can have as much apps as you want on your memory card.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
For changing the UI you dont need to root.

You can use a different launcher:

1. Launcher Pro Plus

2. ADW Launcher EX

3. Go Launcher

Using the above you can customize your UI as you please.

You can try above from Market.

A9 display goes blank

Yes solution is ready, I had same problem and i tried all available s/w(screeble,display on)but no use. This is a problem of Orientation sensor, you have to just reset the sensor. follow the step below,

Type *#36#

will get some settings of Andriod with chinees letters,

Scroll and go for Orientation sensor,

select(press)the Chinees letter(must reset Button).

Thats it,the sensor gets reset and problem solves.
