to root, i used "Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v11" (google is your friend :p)

Thanks to all users who posted some tricks. My tinji is working like a charm (home button working!, cameras ok, rooted and all ok)

I hope we will have jb one day ;)

warning: be carreful about the boot.img, i've tried one who made my screen gone black as soon as i call someone (proximity sensor wasn't working with this boot.img)

Believe me - many, many hours on google ! Many many firmwares and boot.imgs were in my phone.

What firmware do you have now ? This tool is not working to rooting on my firmware... I envy you

---------- Post added at 07:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:51 PM ----------

Now i have question - is it more important Home button and root or Back camera ? But i want both :)

BTW - until now i did not find any firmware with correct battery indicator
[General Questions and Answers] coucoucnico:
i have same problem with battery indicator.

I'm with the "H640_77v01.01b06" firmware.

the root with restore tool must be run as administrator, and the phone must be on.

really strange that it don't work on your phone.

edit: tried TPSparkyRoot.bat ? and MTK Droid Root&Tools from http://forum.china-iphone.ru/viewtopic.php?f=70&t=21731&sid=73726aaa6758622c5d5bc2aade76cda8?

I am having problems with the no service issue. I have the Tinji i9300 dual sim phone, and I have rooted the phone. No problems. Before rooting, I could not get service (Straight Talk - AT&T MVNO). I have been able to successfully change the IMEI to the Iphone 4s I am currently using with the same sim...to no avail. I have tried to change the IMEI last 3 as previously suggested on several occasions. The change took, but still no service. Is there a trick that I am missing?

Hi folks,

I got a big problem...first of all...yes I know I'm very stupid.

Then I root my device haipad i9300 mtk 6577 succesfully. So it was time to upload the cwm recovery, but maybe I did a bad thing...in the begginning I can just see "android" in white letters...a kind of boot loop...then I try to flash boot.img (and I guess this was the fatal mistake) and the phone i dead. Black screen, no pc detection, no boot, nothing just black screen.

I think it is because the boot .img belongs to another mtk 6577 i9300 phone, very similar, but not the same. Now I don't know what to do...except crying and saying myself I'm an idiot.

Is there any chance to give ressunrection to my device...it is just 2 days old, so you can imagine how torn I am.

I mailing the shop, trying to make me change the device using the warranty...but this is may last move. Do you think they couldnt change me the phone? And it is possibile to undesrtand I did something in the phone?

Hello!

I just ordered a S3 clone from china and found this thread searching for Tinji info, but now seems I ordered a very similar phone, called Tianhe (i9377). Both phones where on the same aliexpress page and counfused them. The only differences (viewing the photos and specs) seems to be the battery mAh and that this particular model is quad-band.

Anyone has info about it? Will be incompatible with the root and other tutorials posted here?

Hello. I've made horrible mistake. Didn't backup.

So if someone has the phone that looks like this, could he make full ROM backup and upload it?

I would be very greatfull. It says that it is tinji, but it does not look like one and does not have the same firmware.

[General Questions and Answers] Shawhifox:
Yes, it's the same phone from that seller. The description was a bit confusing, but I think the true name of this phone is Tianhen i9377. If you look for this number you can find another phone called Haipai i9377, I think these two are the same model but made by two different manufacturers.

My phone will take a while to arrive, since the shipment method is china airmail.

Did you try to ask for the original rom to the seller? I know a Link for the Haipai rom if you want to give it a try.

Yes, please put link and I will give it a try.

Hey genius,

I'm using Tinji i9300 and I also have the Battery fast drop problem. I thought it was the Quality of the Battery... you know it made in China...

But Now, I found a cure and I can say it is Not related to the Battery but the built-in USB Charging via the phone.

Now I can Charge it to Real 100% and operate over 4 hours (Normal use w/o Wifi and games) and still got > 90% Charge!

Okay, let's me explain What I've done.

I brought an universal Battery Charger, the Charge pins can be adjusted and fit almost ALL cells. The charging voltage is 4.2v and max. current is 800mah.

After about 2.5hrs charging from < 10% to Full Charge, I wonder the battery is operate steady 100% even after several reboots. If you also Own this phone,

you know this is almost IMPOSSIBLE!

Since the package comes w/ 2 cells, I'm happy with using this Battery Charger....:>

Hi to all :) and thank you for the precious infos found in this thread.

I own a tinji i9300 too, rooted stock rom, removed chinese apps, installed CWM recovery, and well...

Does anybody know exactly what's the GPU on this device? I would like to play gloft games like shadow guardian but I am not sure

the device is supported. Installed chainfire3d and the plugins, but nothing to do for that game in particular.

I also would like to know how to mount an external hdd, looks like we need a proper "fuse.ko" file for our device.

I know there is still a lot to do here :) I am working on the device too to reduce noise during calls changing Audio values

in engineer mode, now they're very few.

EDIT: ...just realized that there's no OTG available on this device.

BTW regarding camera not properly focusing, I am using JB Camera+ instead of the stock camera app. Set the options as you wish, press and hold

shutter button until camera focuses and release whenever it stops focus. Believe me, it will stop focusing.

Tinji I9300 KO. White screen

Hello.

I have done something stupid with my Tinji I9300, and now it doesn´t boot anymore. When turned on, screen is full white and it remains white until the lateral right button is pressed.

Tell you the full story.

After 40 days waiting for it, it arrived yesterday in the morning. Batteries were at 0% and I was very ansious, so I turned it on once the battery was charging. As the battery hadn´t charge enough to boot, the phone went off 6 or 7 times before it got fully booted.

Looking at some of your last posts, I got it rooted one hour later. All was perfect until I started removing chinese apps using root uninstaller. I got rid of them all and then rebooted the phone.

When it started again, the main screen (the one with the flower) blinked in a very ugly way. I rebooted again but still the same. Battery removed, still the same.

I was desperate, I didn´t know how to solve the situation, so I thought the best chance would be flashing it with the stock rom.

I did it following the instructions very carefully and since then I only have a full white screen. Buttons seems to be working, since one of them makes a little vibration when pressed.

Since then, I have tried to flash it again with all stock versions, but the result is always the same, the white screen.

SP Flash Tool works perfectly, it downloads the roms and finishes with green OK.

After lots of trials, I did a test with SP Flash Tool and it says:

===============	Memory Detection Report	===============

Internal RAM:

Size = 0x00020000 (128KB)
