Master Shifu cybermaus/ bm,

Yes, the 3G feature is available on V970 Android 4.0.4 V2.3MOD by BM & the camera button/ auto-focus on A789 is working on V970 port natively. Surprisingly the front camera works on A789 too even the V970 doesn't have a front camera... :o

However, once switch over 3G service to SIM2, SIM1 automatically goes offline...And i didn't test 3G function on SIM2 b'cos i terminated my 3G services on both SIM ever since my local provider sending me junk MMS i didn't subcribe & charging me USD1 for each...

And i can't find this 3G feature on any of the A789 ROM too, what is the actual real benefit of this, may i ask... :o
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
I did, but for internal use only. Never released it to public. :p

The benefit is that you can enable 3G data connection on SIM1 or SIM2. Can be useful for some people.
[ZTE Grand X V970] cybermaus:
That does not seem right. Bruno, can you say if this is the behavior on original hardware too?

That seems even less right, but luckily for us, not a ROM problem.
[ZTE Grand X V970] yuweng:
i was about to ask the same question...Hehe, you really do have a good sense of humor, Master Shifu cybermaus... :D

caller id cannot match phone contact

just upgrades the rom from v1.1 to v2.3, however, the incoming call cannot show the contact name, any quick fix without rolling back to v1.1, backup by titainium backup, and restoring contact data from titainium backup in v2.3? :confused:

Same for me coming from 2.2...

[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
By the time that the issue was fixed I had mentioned that contacts database needed to be built from the scratch. This means that you should clear data for Contacts Storage and Phone/Messaging Storage (go to Settings / Apps / All, select the app and choose Clear Data). ;)

Hi guys, I am new into this "ROM flashing", so please don't look at me like to a fool :)

I found in previous posts that Lenovo A789 is based on the same MKT item (or what?) as other devices discussed in this forum.

My question: is it possible to apply ROM from this forum to Lenovo A789? Because I am very interested in support for Czech language which was mentioned that it was implemented into this ROM.

Thanks for help.
[ZTE Grand X V970] lurkerPL:
Look at first post in this thread. There are various releases of ZTE V970 ROM. You should go for V2.3 Rom with yet added Czech language.

epo settings lost after reboot

When i activate gps and epo, after reboot, epo is deactivated, So i must activate epo again, after every reboot.

Anyone else has this problem, or even better a solution?

First of all, why to reboot the device often?

I tried to buy the phone from AliExpress. They canceled my order for "security reasons". It made no sense. USA credit card from USA bank, being shipped to the USA address where the billing goes as well. What's the problem? Then they wanted me to send them copies of my passport, credit card, and credit card statement. No way. That's enough information to run an identity theft scam!

I'll order from Etotalk next time. Hopefully they can do it right.

Hi everybody,

I want to ask, I want to use BIG Caller ID app (or other such app) but by incoming calls I can´t pick it up because "My phone forced the use of system caller ID."

Does anyone know how to change it to caller ID app functioned?

Thank you for your advice.

[ZTE Grand X V970] denexo:
I just bought this phone. Bruno i really have to thank you for all your work!!! With your ROM the phone really rocks! It is even more responsive from my previous LG Optimus 2x with Tegra2. I only want to ask this: i installed HTC IME MOD v30 for keyboard to bypass the lack of greek language input. When i long press in composing a message, i don't get the popup for copy, paste,cut etc options. Same stands for the native keyboard. Any ideas on this? Again Bruno thank you very much, i wait for your new mod version supporting greek with eager !!!
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
MBR file contains master boot record and EBR1 contains extended boot record. I advise you not to use my files on any other MTK based device because you may mess the whole boot record. However, if you want to know more about this mod and apply the changes to your device's MBR and EBR1 files, read this post.
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
The default audio encoder is AMR-NB. I guess it should be possible for your to apply the same mod. :cowboy:

Please just wait a few more days for the new release. Hopefully you won't have to install HTC IME anymore. ;)
[ZTE Grand X V970] 42serenity:
Can you tell us what the difference of the new ROM-base (RET-VE-QB128D-P175A20V1.0.0/B03) is that you used for your new v3.0?
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
That base ROM is the stock ROM released by ZTE Venezuela. It already contains the most up-to-date Google apps, new kernel, new baseband, etc... :cool:
[ZTE Grand X V970] denexo:
These are great news Bruno !!! I am waiting to install your new rom with Greek language support !!!!:D

Okay, the new ROM has just been released. I know this took longer than expected, but this ROM is the greatest I have ever released and has worth the wait. :laugh:

Be sure to read first post to get the download link and read history changes.
[ZTE Grand X V970] wtel:
Thanks for your great job!

However, I stuck in the ZTE boot logo after the second reboot. Before getting reboot, I just followed the Android setup wizard to choose my language, time zone, etc and just go to reboot directly, waited for 20 minutes but still in boot logo.

I tried to reinstall with the same options in the Aroma installer and the result was the same.

Trying to change the installer options right now.

*** updated ***

Tried with default Aroma settings with data/system wipe but the situation is the same :(

BTW, the SIM card slot and the battery get hot after I left it stuck in the boot logo for a long time.
[ZTE Grand X V970] magnet1215:
Same problem.
[ZTE Grand X V970] prea50:
Just a small question for who have problem :

have you update the ebr1 file ??

For now i have not intalldd the v3
[ZTE Grand X V970] magnet1215:
After updated the ebr1 file before first reboot~

this problem never happens again. Thanks~:laugh:

I tried the idea presented here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23394954&postcount=2669

But still does not work with the MVNO here in sweden that Tele2 uses Sweden 3G network. Anyone else had solve the issue or even has the issue with the R symbol on the top.

I also have noticed that I sometimes drop connection on the Primary seems and needs to reboot to get it again, is that also only me?

Thanks and best regards.
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
I will try to look into your problem as soon as I release V1.1MOD ROM. ;)

EDIT: It seems that lots of people with ICS and even JB ROMs are having these MVNO problems as well. :(
[ZTE Grand X V970] Petteri:
Sounds good! Whats your Deadline!? :)
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
I will probably release it tomorrow! :D
[ZTE Grand X V970] jln1982:
Great... will there be a update or do we need to fully flash everything?

Best regards Jonas
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
Okay, my new V1.1MOD ROM was just released (version history updated on post #3). You can all now download it from my 4shared folder.

I have decided that the update should continue to erase all userdata, so my advise is that you use backup feature from CWM recovery and then restore

only userdata

(advanced restore feature)

after

installing the update. The reason for this decision is that new users that wish to try my custom ROM can just install the latest ROM without needing to do cumulative updates.
[ZTE Grand X V970] Slotrat:
Thanks man!

But no other changes than the Boot fix and added language support? No need to install then if I'm allready on 1.0 and want Swedish language?
[ZTE Grand X V970] davychau:
Hi bgcngm,

Will add the Asia languages on the next Rom ?
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
Yes, you could say that. No other fixes / improvements other than the ones described. Just so that you understand, I haven't been translating the ROM to all the languages that are now supported. The translated strings were taken from an official ZOPO ZP300 ROM, which already includes support for all those languages. Swedish was not part of the list, so adding it would be really hard as it would need manual translation of a huge number of strings.

Which Asian languages are you referring to? I have already added support for several Asian languages.
[ZTE Grand X V970] davychau:
Hi bgcngm,

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Added support for the following languages:

Arabic, Bengali, German, Spanish, Farsi, French, Hindu, Indonesian, Italian, Malaysian, Dutch, Portuguese (Portugal and Brazil), Russian, Thai, Turkish, Urdu and Vietnamese

------------------------------------------------------------------

i know the stock rom just support eng and simple chinese

How about the traditional chinese?

Thx so Much !
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
Yes, I have also added traditional Chinese. Just forgot to mention it. ;)

[ZTE Grand X V970] drait:
Thanks bgcngm for your work.

Is there any way to flash EBR1 without using the flash tool? I don't have a Windows computer :)
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
I have rephrased it to:

If that is not your case (if you haven't applied the extended userdata mod before) go ahead with the update. Nevertheless, which OS are you using then? OS X or Linux? I haven't tested, but you can try creating a Windows virtual machine and running SP Flash Tool from there.
[ZTE Grand X V970] wtel:
Same here :)

Thank you prea50 and sorry to Bruno that I didn't read the instructions clearly
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
No need to say sorry. You see, if you read everything carefully then it all goes well. :p

What about AROMA installer? For those you have already applied the update, did you like it? It's simply amazing and you can even try different settings with ease. For example, you can try an installation with JB fonts included and if you don't like it you can simply re-apply the update without loosing any data because now you have the choice not to wipe userdata. But be wise while using this feature: if you are updating from a very old version or a different ROM than mine, it is advisable to clear all data and restore only the needed data using Titanium Backup.
[ZTE Grand X V970] drait:
It might be an option, but I prefer to avoid Windows voodoo altogether. Normally I run Linux.

My phone says total space 504MB for internal storage and an internal SD-card of 2.05GB, so I guess it was not altered by the vendor before if I compare it with the FAQ 'In phone specifications it's stated that it has 4 GB of eMMC, but only approximately 500 MB are available for internal storage', I will have a go at flashing it today (the phone came with CWM pre-installed).
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
I understand that you want to avoid Windows at all costs, but sometimes you really need it. :p That is the case if you want to flash a new recovery or other partition using SP Flash Tool. But as I said, try to create a Windows virtual machine for that matter only. I don't know if you will be successful because there may be some drivers problems... If you go ahead with it please let me know if you got it working.

Do You have anybody working drivers for windows 8 64-bit?

Silly question: i have V2.3 mod now. If i install the new rom will my applications be kept intact or i will have to do it from the beginning ? The only thing that confuses me is the aroma installer since i am new to it
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
Of course you can keep userdata... Did you even read this post?
[ZTE Grand X V970] denexo:
I did Bruno ;) As i mentioned i haven't used AROMA installer before and many of the options (browsers and such) are already installed. So i preferred asking just for safety. Brb with impressions of the new rom Bruno although i know it will be great !!!
[ZTE Grand X V970] n0v4c41n3:
Thanks bruno all working great..but 1 prob..why my network always send message tell me place where I here..how to setting to off that?in v2.3 its not appear..
[ZTE Grand X V970] denexo:
Hi Bruno. The full greek support is really great on the new rom.

One thing that i noticed is that the cput always stays at 1GHz no matter if the phone stays idle or not. With V2.3MOD i could see with cpu master pro that the cpu was throttling from 250-1000MHz and it stayed at 250MHz when i was doing nothing with the phone. Now it is stuck at 1GHz!!! I changed governor with no luck. Maybe i am wrong but it doesn't feel that snappy like V2.3MOD. Did the kernel change with the new zte Venezuela rom that you used?

How easy would it be for you to create a cwm flashable zip file adding greek language to V2.3MOD?

I want to say again a big thanks Bruno for all your hard work!!! If it wasn't for your roms, i wouldn't have bought this phone!!!
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
Open stock Messaging application and go to Settings / Cell broadcast settings. Select your operator and disable cell broadcast. :good:

[ZTE Grand X V970] gerstavros:
Did you have the phone connected via usb?
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
That's not easy... the CWM flashable zip file would be a complete ROM, because almost every .apk is changed. Sorry, but I won't do that. Although, I will double check the problem you mentioned.

[ZTE Grand X V970] xdaanthony:
Dear bgcngm,

Thanks for your work.

I found the traditional chinese language is mixed with simplified chinese.

Can you fixed it?

Thanks!
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
Mixed? How is that? I haven't even touched the .xml files for those languages. :rolleyes:
[ZTE Grand X V970] denexo:
No. Weird thing is that changing governor even to powersave does nothing.

I understand Bruno. Please post your findings! It doesn't make sense if there is no change in the kernel version...
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
You're partially right... it may not make sense if kernel hadn't been changed. The thing is that kernel has been changed, at least it is a new compilation and I can't tell if there are any changes within.

Can you try to flash boot.img from the previous release? That will clarify any doubts, whether is kernel is or is not the culprit.
[ZTE Grand X V970] jonasbeavis:

I tried to keep User Data(Cleared the cache) in AROMA and upgrade from 2.3 MOD, but a lot of apps crashes when it boot. Have I done something wrong or it is not possible to do that?
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
Have you read post #4? ;)

What can I say... if you got problems then you should clear userdata. Please note that the ROM used as base for this new release is different than the one used in the previous. :p
[ZTE Grand X V970] denexo:
I flashed boot.img from previous V2.3MOD. I can verify (at least on my phone) that it works as it should, meaning that when i set to powersave it drops to 250MHz and when set to hybrid it throttles from 250-1000MHz. If anyone else could it test it to verify it that would be great !!!

Great ROM, some issues

Hi Bruno!

The new V3.0 is great!

Some things:

- AROMA crashed on my first try (exited at ~80%, then the phone bootlooped)

- If I didn't deleted userdata (my prev. rom is 2.2) then the phone turned on, on lockscreen said the gmail crashed and rebooted... With clean install it's fine now. The Titanium included comes handy.

- The "CDROM" mode is a cool thing, but there's some way to disable it or change default mode? If I put it on the USB cable, it's always been the default! And, to be more worse, I cannot change it, until I eject the drive in windows! It's very annoying... Plugging USB-ejecting drive-changing to MTP/file mode every time I connect to a computer!!! :P

Hmmm.... Now it's connecting in USB drive mode, even if I disconnected with MTP! It's some better, because I don't have to eject it before I change the mode... But the previous version saved my setting and connected with that...

Interesting thing is I din't changed anything (because I can't), just trying to change the mode (with no effect).
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
For those that don't know what to do, here you have the instructions. Copy the new .apk into your sdcard and using ES File Explorer (or any other file manager with root access) paste it into /system/app (replacing the old one). Don't forget to mount /system as RW (read/write). :D

EDIT: Ohh... and reboot your phone after the process. ;)
[ZTE Grand X V970] kandreou:

[ZTE Grand X V970] gerstavros:
NO WAY. The main difference is screen size and resolution, so this rom won't work
[ZTE Grand X V970] kandreou:
Correction!!

I needed to install the new Email.apk to have exchange email and after i did that i restarted the phone... Since then i can see deep idle working but from all the other frequences the cpu only works at 1000mhz according to the cpu spy v0.4.0!! Before the restart it was stuck to 1000mhz only!!
