http://www.jetdroid.org/shanzhai/2012/11/21/mt6577-kernel-source-released/ Bruno,did you check this? Are there missing modules? Please, bring good news.
[ZTE Grand X V970] iCantRememberMyUsername:
I wonder if it has got to do with the hardware (battery). On my phone, in v3.1 ICS ROM, the battery status sometimes get stuck. When I used the v1.1R2 JB ROM, the battery status just behaves strangely (jumping from 80% in the morning to 20% in the afternoon, and after a reboot, jumps back to 50%). It happens only sometimes, but it's annoying enough that I now try to restart my phone once or twice a day (like using Windows 95).
[ZTE Grand X V970] iCantRememberMyUsername:
Hi, I'm sorry I don't know the technical details of the headphone configuration, but I can tell you that the Samsung headset (left and right channel + microphone) that came with my Galaxy Tab 7" (P-1000) doesn't work correctly on the ZTE. The sound is all wrong, I can hear a very soft mono playback only, and if I press down on the microphone button, it sounds a bit different, but still wrong.

If I pull the plug out very slightly, it sounds like normal earphones but the microphone button does nothing.

With a normal headphone/earphone (left and right channel, no microphone) it works normally.

I hope that helps somewhat...

Please help me to fix the boot loop.

Hello, I need some help to fix the boot loop.

I installed the CWM and switch the external SD card (sdcard @ emmc) to my ZTE V970m and then Root it, which is available as well. :good: :good: :good:

But when I do a Factory reset, it turns into the boot loop. So I removed the battery and put in again, and try to use CWM by press the Power button + Vol.up, but it doesn't work. If I press Vol.down it can go into the system test. :eek:

I try to install CWM again, that can done without any problems. But CWM still can not get it anyway. :crying: :crying:

I would like to know if someone have a way to fix it.

Thank verymuch,

NungS

PS. sorry for my bad English.

[ZTE Grand X V970] NungS:
How can I flash my ZTE without using CWM tool? :confused:
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
Read posts #2 and #3 of this thread and you'll get everything you need to flash your phone. The solution is exactly that, flash back the complete stock ROM and then start all over.
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
Some users asked me recently if my custom ROMs have been (or will be) patched to fix Android's master key (bugs 8219321 and 9695860) vulnerabilities. The answer is no, but the solution to that is pretty simple:

Install Xposed framework (instructions on the support thread)

Install Master key dual fix module (instructions available also on it's support thread)

To check if system is vulnerable you can use one of the following apps:

SRT AppScanner

Bluebox Security Scanner

All credits to rovo89 for the amazing Xposed framework and also to Tungstwenty for the Master key universal fix.
[ZTE Grand X V970] NungS:
Thank you very much,

[ZTE Grand X V970] iCantRememberMyUsername:
SIP functionality in JB ROM

I've only just realised this, and I'm surprised no one has mentioned this in the thread (nothing came up in a search for "sip" on this thread...). In Bruno's v3.1 ICS ROM (base ROM from official ZTE Chinese ROM), there is the default/native Android SIP functionality in addition to dual SIM. Once it's been set up, when I make a phone call, I can choose between SIM 1, SIM 2, or "Internet call". In the v1.2 JB ROM (base ROM from the Indonesian telco ROM?) the SIP function is missing.

This is common for ROMs designed for telcos, as telcos don't like to allow VoIP, and I'm wondering if it's easy enough to bring this function back as it's probably in the code somewhere?

I've tried a popular and well-know SIP client (CSipSimple) but the microphone and the headset/speaker doesn't work with the app. I haven't tried others, but I guess it may be similar given how Skype has problems too with this device. I wonder if the Indonesian base ROM has restrictions in place for VoIP apps...?

Would be grateful if anyone can share their experience with SIP clients (preferably one that supports SRTP and TLS!) on the JB ROM :cowboy: I love Bruno's JB ROM but SIP is useful to me.

UPDATE: Speaker and microphone works with CSipSimple... the reason it wasn't working before is because I was behind TOR and I guess the media packets don't go through the network or is incorrectly forwarded...
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
A small correction, both base ROMs were designed for telcos, being the ICS one released for China Unicom.

Anyway, the problem you're experiencing with VoIP apps is already known, mainly for those who like to use Skype. I'm afraid I can't do nothing about that. If someone knows the solution (may be using other libraries) please let me know. I read somewhere that LeWa ROM doesn't have that issue.

[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
Which kind of help do you need? :confused: Everything is well explained here.
[ZTE Grand X V970] fjsferreira:
There's a lot of graphical lag in the JB Roms most of the time. Sometimes, it goes away and the UI is smooth as butter, but most of the time it's almost possible to see the transitions frame by frame. I don't know what is causing that. When the hwcomposer mod that's in this thread is installed, the UI get's smoother but not as smooth as when using the default hwcomposer doesn't lag... can this be fixed?
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
Do you really need to quote a post that has nothing to do with your question? :silly:

I didn't understood this sentence:
[ZTE Grand X V970] fjsferreira:
I'm sorry about that.

What I meant is, the hwcomposer mod that's floating around in this thread does fix some of the lagging, but is not as smooth as when the stock Rom's hwcomposer isn't having problems.
[ZTE Grand X V970] fjsferreira:
Outro problema com as ROMS JB é o facto de, quando se activam os relatórios de entrega no programa de sms stock, mesmo quando as sms são entregues, o relatório aparece como pendente. Utilizando outra app como o gosms já funciona, mas estas outras apps nomalmente não suportam dual sim....

EDIT - Another problem with the JB Roms it's the fact that, when delivery reports are activated on stock sms app, even when messages sent are delivered, status report always shows as "pending". Using another app like gosms works fine, but these other apps normally don't support dual sim functionality.

low storege after internal memory re-partition

after doing the extend , i have "low storage" note on email app.

i have notice that i have only 54 mb available in the SYSTEM library.

what should i do ?
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
Never tried changing that lib, but if you say that the stock one is smoother, why don't you simply stick to it?

How have you done eMMC re-partitioning? Not the proper way I guess, or else it would not leave that 54MB partition. It already happened to another user, so go a few posts back and have a read.
[ZTE Grand X V970] sianhulo:
Bruno, can something be done with this http://www.ohloh.net/p/kernel_mediatek? Or is it missing any modules?

[ZTE Grand X V970] fjsferreira:
The problem is the stock one only rarely works great; most of the time the UI is very laggy, and logcat shows hundred's upon hundred's of hwcomposer errors with the stock hwcomposer.mt6577,so, like other users have reported before. The modded hwcomposer.mt6577.so fixes those errors and makes the UI less laggy, but even then it's not as good as when the rare times stock hwcomposer is working.
[ZTE Grand X V970] d07a2010:
plz help me guys,

my battery died what kind of mobile devices can i replace with it cuz here in Egypt there's no ZtE Accessories provider support this device.

thx in adv.
[ZTE Grand X V970] fjsferreira:
Your phone won't charge after the battery went through a full discharge, right? Happened to me once. I plugged the charger all night long and nothing. My solution was to put the battery on another zte v970 (my brother's) and charge it, after a few hours it finally came to life, and it didn't happened again. NEVER let the battery fully discharge, when it's around 10% and you can't charge it, just turn off the phone.
[ZTE Grand X V970] d07a2010:
thx man for ur reply,but actually that's not my mean issue,my problem is my battery draining too fast not as usual so i need to replace it
[ZTE Grand X V970] fjsferreira:
How fast? And how do you use your phone? Mine barel lasts a day, and that's normal... even more with the heat that's going on (lithium batteries worst enemy is temperature)

Anyway, ebay has lots of original batteries, you could try there.

Here are some examples

[ZTE Grand X V970] d07a2010:
Thank you for your help my brother, but is there a kind of batteries with Samsung phones match with the mobile and operate it,cuz here in Egypt all Samsung Accessories are available???
[ZTE Grand X V970] fjsferreira:
I don't think any samsung or other brand other than zte (or specifically made for the v970) batteries will work. You would also lose warranty immediately. Can't you buy online?
[ZTE Grand X V970] longo213:
I believe in his original thread tlac reported that those hwcomposer libraries are missing from JB ROM entirely and he added them from THL rom.

He even mentions that even that didn't fixed the stock launcher, but Apex should work.

That is not new. The kernel sources were already available and it can be noticed on the first post of this thread. I haven't taken a deep look at the sources and don't have time to work on that.

[ZTE Grand X V970] gerstavros:
one time i searched that, source code driving the main chipset, cpu-gpu wasn't there i think
[ZTE Grand X V970] eran.langa:
this what i did.

1. format data, cache, system. from CWM.

2. flash your scatter.

3. format data.

4. install your JB rom. it detects the extended partition.

i did it twice.

the "system" partition is 500 MB, but after installation it remain ~60 MB free. the data partition has more then 2 GB free

what i am doing wrong?
[ZTE Grand X V970] xfman:
Hi Bruno,

First of all, thanks for your amazing work on these roms.

I bought my v970 off a friend with your ICS V3.1MOD installed, which was working great and I was very happy with it.

The app partition was very small though so I followed your instructions and at the same time upgraded to JB V1.1R2.

I have a couple of issues with this ROM though, which I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing or if there is a solution for them:

1) I use the phone with a single sim installed, When on apps (such as phone or sms) that provide sim selection on through the notification, sometimes when I pull down the notification drawer I get graphics glitches. When you are out of the sim card selection mode, the problem dissappears. Any ideas? V1.2ROM doesn't appear to have any changes to that aspect, can you please confirm? Any idea on what's causing it?

2) I have on occasion high battery drain (10% per hour with the phone "idle")which is only stopped with a reboot. And I can't trace the source of it.

3) The volume is lower compared to the ICS ROM.

And 2 non-bugs, but more of questions:

4) Is there a way to install something with the tab n grid that appears on the XPERIA android phones? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2051009

5) Is the ROM compatible with http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=739530 ? Or is there something similar that would work with your ROMs?

Thanks again for all your hard work. You ROM makes the V970 an amazing budget phone that's lacking in no area compared to the 500-700$ phones.

1) gps does not work, and yes i mean real gps, not agps using network, and yes it is turned on and in the outside, never gets connected to satellites

2) if you don´t have lock screen, the phone can be unlocked by volume keys and that sucks, since it can be unlocked by accident in your pocket, and i don't like lock screens

3)annoying lag writing sms with correction, some sort of fix is to disable all sorts of corrections and putting only one language

How do you know that you are entering recovery? Do you see ZTE logo and then screen goes white? I'm sure that's a hardware problem. I suggest you to try flashing stock firmware, double check and if issue remains contact your seller, in case phone is still under warranty.

bug?

you have several browsers, sometime android ask you to select one to open a link,

you have 2 choices: select the browser , hit just this time,or hit always

other phones, roms, etc, have those 2 options and also you can double click the browser to open the link right now, you can´t do this on this rom
[ZTE Grand X V970] bgcngm:
That's not a bug. You must have already chosen the default browser and now it doesn't ask anymore from which one the link should be opened. Just revert app defaults.

nop, i don´t have default browser

is some sort of bug introduced in JB, forgive if i am wrong, i had a 4.2.2 nexus 4 and many things changed with 4.1.1

you have several browsers, and a popup windows ask you what to do (what browser will open the link)

you select a browser and hit : a)just this time, b) always, c) return (nothing)

cool

but it is annoying to click on the browser and then just this time, other phones you just click on the browser you want and it will open the app just for that time only, (doing less clicks)

I'm using my ZTE V970 with endomondo every day for 2-4 times (bike trip to work and back home), I have no gps patches installed, just one app for gps from gugle play: "gps status" and each time GPS fix is found in less 1 minute in most cases in about 30s and place where I start my trip is between buildings as 15 floors high.

i do not restart my phone at all, maybe once a month. It is super stable for me, nothing hangs. I charge it every day as playing a lot of appeak poker :)
[ZTE Grand X V970] ravsss:
Yes i'm agree that this gps is suck, comparing to other phone like Samsung s3.... but it's not bad. After first start witch takes a long time, next gps use get fix in very short time.

Now i'm testing battery which have 2400mAh.... but guys... looks like orginal battery is much better then biger replacment. For me phone drains a lot of energy... much more that i expect.

No, I didn't changed anything.

I reinstalled it and it works fine until I add a SIM. Then it goes crazy. All the apps are FCing.

Any suggestions ? Many thanks

Maybe in this way you can find out if I did something wrong.

I flashed using FlashTool 3.1.2222.00 the emmc from V970 extended userdata.

Then I entered CWM and 1) factory reset 2) install from sdcard 3) again factory reset (tried even without the 3rd pace)

The phone works well at first boot. I set language and other stuff. When I add the Gmail account somehow I end up inserting it twice, because it ask once again for the account and password.

I install stuff that I want and after 20-30 min, if I restart boom... the SIMs stop working and I get all sort of FCs - phone.apk, contacts .. .mainly all the apps from the phone and it enteres in some kind of loop. After this, I checked and I haven't had anymore a Gmail account attached to the phone, and all the apps installed by me were missing, and it gave me an error regarding the SD card, even if one is inserted or not.

Please help! Thanks in advance
