ZTE V970 IMEI Issue

Hi

when you ordered V970 did you confirm the Dual Sim has separate IMEI for each Sim or will the same IMEI be used for both(highly doubtfull)..cause i read some here on the web only one IMEI is shown using *#06#....then hwre is the other one...i am worried this may not work in my country(india) and i have already ordered..

please any V970 owners reply...
[ZTE Grand X V970] cybermaus:
Not a V970 owner myself, but I believe the Indian government has a department where you can register your 'clone' and get assigned an official IMEI? So if you run into IMEI problems, just get an new government mandated one (cost a few rupiah, sorry) and program it in. If you are unable to program it, I noticed when I was in Hyderabad that there are plenty of street-shops who can do this for you, though it may be better if you have it done officially.

[ZTE Grand X V970] sp4wned:
When I dial *#06# it apears the window with IMEI two numbers but they are identiqual. Could this be a problem for my freeze in call?
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
You can try to rewrite your IMEI numbers and check if that is the problem. ;)
[ZTE Grand X V970] coolsabby7:
identical IMEI

Hi sp4wned

You said you have seen two IMEI but they identical...i presume they are same digit for digit.....if so then it could be a cause for call freeze...it easy to test....

1) Do you have 2 sim from same operator or different operators...

2) if 2 diff operators..then when both the SIM are inserted...both sending the same IMEI to their network causing clash of identity for the device..w.r.t to operator.

3) have you used the phone with only SIM at time...if it works it should give you an idea...

4) Have you previously owned any other Dual Sim phone...did you have such problem...if not....then check whether they had different IMEI for each slot...

Coz i have a dual sim phone currently and i can see 2 IMEI for each..and they are different...

waiting for reply..

thanks

hi, bgcngm

you own a V970 right....u didnt face such an issue??.....u have 2 IMEI each for 2 SIMS????....which country ar u using the phone..

thanks

---------- Post added at 06:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:49 PM ----------

Hi cybermaus

Yu ar right..there was such a program..by indian government..but it has been closed..as of now with complete BAN on phones without distinct IMEI..for multiple SIM phones....

but can you some how confirm....that having only one IMEI will cause issue(as iam not a tech guy)...while using a Dual SIM phone....with both SIM online...

thanks...

---------- Post added at 07:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:54 PM ----------

Hi sp4wned

from your post what i can make out is that when slot1 is not empty(and has orange).....there is a problem...the slot1 is WCDMA/3G slot have you checked the band that orange sim supports...and matches with phones band...if yes both have same then there could be something wrong with SIM...but do check for IMEI angle...as i think that is major issue...

vibration of back button

Hello,

i just want to ask if the back button vibration works on your phone - i installed Mod1.2 and the button don´t vibrate - it was the same with ROM V1.1?

The home and search button vibrates - but not the back button.

Is this a settings problem - or maybe a hardware problem?

Without the vibration feature i alwas press the button twice.:eek:

thanks for answers
[ZTE Grand X V970] kentdream:

Friends, have you had any problems with V970 screen?

First, when I received it, I was let down for that border problem I don’t know how to describe in English. It happens in same way as LCD/LED Tv’s, when the corners or even the whole side of the screen is brighter than the center of it. In Portuguese we call it “light leak”, in a direct translation.

Then, after a month or so of usage, my screen got some scratches. That’s strange; I’m almost sure we have some sort of protection – although it is not a Gorilla Glass – but it should not be that scratched already. The strangeness come that when I try to reproduce the scratches on the screen with a key or some peaked object, I just can’t do it myself, whatever the pressure I put on the screen.

Because of that I’ll have to change my screen and use protectors again, one thing I don’t like to do. But, besides that, V970 is a great option for the ones in need of a JB Dual-Sim Android phone.

headset

Hello guys,

after searching extensively and buying at least 4 different headsets (with mic and multifunction button - none of them worked correctly with my v970), First I bought couple of headsets with different trrs and none of them worked. Then I bought old Nokia headset and no luck. Last I bought ZTE's headset for ZTE Skate, and the headset is not working again. Now I'm turning to you for help:

Can you suggest any headset, that is working with this phone? I know, we got a headset with the phone, but I really would like to find an in-ear headset with mic and button... I spend a lot of time on y bike and this would really help me a lot.

That happens when module is not enabled. Use Xposed installer to check if framework is installed and module enabled.

From what I remember there where no problems with backlight, but with GB you can changed some button backlight settings (default / disabled / always on when screen on).

Personally, I don't bother with governors. Instead I do things to increase the battery life manually. I can only say what works for me but I use an app called "DS Battery Saver Pro" on the most aggressive setting "Slumber" and it works great! At low phone usage I don't need to recharge for a few days but even on the most intensive days it gets me enough life till the end of day so I think it's much better than choosing between governors.

Feedback on Google-less Install

Hi, I thought I'll feedback on my recent install of the JB 1.2 build without Google Play.

It's interesting, without installing Google Framework (so no Google Play Store and no Google apps installed), the phone doesn't do notifications. Apps with persistent notification icons installed doesn't show up in the top-left corner of the status bar, and incoming emails or SMS text messages doesn't show any notifications either. When I pull down the notification drawer, it is always blank. The top-right "settings" icon shortcut also doesn't do anything.

When I do a complete reinstall, and this time installing just Google Play Store (but nothing else), notifications are working. The "settings" icon also works.

I remember using CyanogenMod on other devices and without installing Google Framework, it works alright, so this ROM probably requires the Google Framework in order to work well.

I haven't tried to do the same with the ICS ROM, but the original China Unicom ICS ROM doesn't actually come with Google Framework, so I suspect it might work well. However that ROM has an extremely annoying elastic scrolling issue that gets on my nerves so I'm probably going to stay on the JB build... or is there a way I can change that on the ICS ROM?

[ZTE Grand X V970] iCantRememberMyUsername:
I also had to use the stock clock only, no Google clock. If I remember correctly, during installation, even if the stock clock is de-selected it still gets installed. The stock Calendar also doesn't work, but the Google Calendar does.
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
Okay, you are right about the issue around stock Clock / Google Clock (ported from Android 4.2). There is a minor error in the installation script which causes the stock Clock to be installed even if it is de-selected. Not a problem if that is the only one installed. However, it doesn't go well along with the newer one. To make the latter one work, you have to use a file explorer with root access and delete DeskClock (both .apk and .odex files), stored under /system/app. After that, go to Settings / Apps / All, search for Clock and hit Clear data for that app. ;)
