Hi,

The touch of my screen does not work anymore after installing a custom recovery of colonelzap.

Touch the recovery not working I used flash tool to put two different pure android rom and no 0131rom operates the touchscreen.

I can use only flash tool

An idea?

So I just received this cable in the mail, and surprise surprise, it doesn't work.

Some of us are having a hard enough time finding a cable without people/comments leading us in a wild goose chase.

I hope others here didn't buy this cable based on his post.

So has anybody else heard about the Goophone i5S? Theres stuff and a video about it on the Goophone website but unfortunately i cant read Chinese. Theres some info on the net too, but doesnt sound real :s
[General Questions and Answers] vnman:
If anyone interested, the SKU is 157994 for the cable from dx.com
[General Questions and Answers] Manuxo:
Yes i already heard about it, and i've one already and i'm already working on it.

The current goophone i5s is a low cost version of the goophone i5 lite.

So it is cheaper than the i5 lite but it brings a lower camera (5.0 MP), display( 854*480 pixel), internal storage (8 GB), no lightning cable (Micro usb instead) and less RAM (only 512mb). The rest is the same.

There is already a thread of it here

Just to let you know guys this cable works !

As you can see in the second picture, to improve contact with the phone and ensure it will charge, I dismounted the little plastic box and pushed the connector to gain 1-2mm.

Video: mediafire.com/?e6q1u7kcev9l5r4
[General Questions and Answers] :
Yup...

I just tested it. After gaining 2mm, it works :)

However, instead of dismounting the plastic box and pushing the connector back, I just used my wife's nail file to shave 2mm off of the plastic surrounding the lightning connector.

I'm stoked I finally got my phone back. :)

@Manuxo Is it possible to install this ROM using flash tool instead of recovery from SD.. ?

Btw, I tried to take the phone apart, removed the 2 screws but when tried to take it apart only the screen came off which is glued to the phone.. Under the screen a lot of covered parts but couldn't find the SD card so I imagine more parts need to be removed to get to it..

Battery Drain

Hey, I have a Goophone i5, anyone know how to fix the battery drain?? D:

I cannot use a phone that drains the battery in 6 hrs with normal usage!! D:

Which is the ROM that uses less battery? Is it a software problem or an hardware problem??

I think not.

SD card is bellow the screen so maybe it is covered by same paper or tape.

Hi ColonelZap

This is great! I was wondering whether this was possible. I'm assuming this boost has an impact on the all important battery life? I noticed you're demoing this using the stock ics build. Is this a built-in function or an app that allows the overclocking? Also, I was wondering whether you could help me out? I'm very much interested in installing the stock ics build. The iOS clone is just not working out for. I read your instructions on your blogg but, don't know what to do when it comes to setting up the device. What I mean by that is what mode does the phone have to be in so the flash tool recognises it? One more question if you don't mind. How is the volumes on this build? The iOS builds are not very good at all. Its so hard understanding people on skype.

Thanks

Very GOOD...LOL

---------- Post added at 03:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:30 PM ----------

btw

I tried today one of the ROM from the Colonel's Collections, and it is quite good ;) V18 I think...

The Antutu Score is 5402, quite adequate.

There are quite a few steps to make it to my liking :

The ROM not rooted so have to do "One Click Root"

Network Location not working so have to replace the apk with the working one

/sdcard and /sdcard2 now same as my old phone. 2GB for /sdcard and 16GB for /sdcard2

for some reason when running Antutu and select /mnt/sdcard2 Antutu crashed when trying to write to the sdcard2. Though the same thing happened to Manuxo's ROM - Antutu crashed on both /sdcard and /mnt/sdcard2..

Still trying to work out how to change the icons "turn on/ turn off storage" from Android icons to iOS icons. Help please...

"Media" volume now work with this ROM also....

Oh and Google Contacts Sync not working, maybe Calendar Sync not working too (not really care since I have SnapPea and I do not use Calendar). GPS still not working as it should....

Instructions for installing the stock ICS rom on the goophone i5.

These are the steps I took. I am assuming you have already rooted your phone and installed the phone drivers to your pc

Download SP flash tool

tool: h ttp://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1982576

guide: h ttp://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1982587

Download the goophone i5 ics rom

I picked a rom by Sebastiaan (he applied the ics bar fix, among others)

h ttp://www.mediafire.com/?ohrjiopj7qtasnf

Enable usb debugging on your phone.

Extract the .rar rom file

Run SP flash tool

- click file -> open scatter loading file

- navigate to the extracted rom folder and select the scatter file (MT6577_Android_scatter_emmc)

- when the file has loaded, uncheck "preloader, DSP_BL, and (if you already have a custom recovery) recovery"

Turn your phone off and make sure its unplugged from the pc

- select download in SP flash tool (a warning will appear)

-plug your phone into the pc

the tool will run and install the rom to your phone

reboot

This is the procedure I went through, as always, follow instructions at your own risk.
[General Questions and Answers] IndyUK:
Hi

Thanks for the steps. It's much more clearer now. The one instruction that confuses me is the above. If the phone is turned off and disconnected from the PC, then how does the flash tool upgrade it?

3G Problem with T-Mobile APN

Hello,

I have been searching high and low for a solution to getting 3G on my Goophone I5 that I have bought from Android-Sale. I have tried copying the xml file from another android phone and that has failed. I have tried using APN Backup and Restore and it says that my version of android is not supported. I have tried switching to every T Mobile APN in APN Manager Pro and still can't get the phone off of Edge. I have even tried to manually input the APN with APN Manager Pro with no success.

Is there anybody out there who can help me troubleshoot this problem? I would greatly appreciate it!
[General Questions and Answers] Chi Am:
That's where many people become confused.....................as there was no need to plug the device to the PC in the first instance.

Simply go through the procedures and connect a turned-off phone to the PC (the Flash-tool and ROM already placed on the desktop).
[General Questions and Answers] Nash Deluxe:
T-Mobile uses the 1700MHz and 2100MHz bands for its 3G network but is in the process of refarming the 1900MHz spectrum for its HSPA service.

The Goophone i5 lacks the 1700MHz band so you will only be able to access 3G where it is available through 1900MHz.

Heres a map outlining the areas where 3G coverage is available over the 1900MHz band: www.airportal.de

The map is updated daily.

A little bit help!!

Hello,

I'm a little bit confused and I hope any of you can help me. I'm the owner of a Goophone i5 N2 (fastcardtech). I would like to flash a new rom. I want to know if the steps I present below are correct:

- First I have to backup the current rom by using Nandroid backup (phone is already rooted)

- Then I have to flash a new recovery mode ---> Clockworkmod. Do i have to use a certain version that's compatible with my phone? Is this different then the one we can use for the Goophone i5 Lite (androidsale)?

- Last step is installing the new rom. Is there somebody who flashed a rom used for the goophone i5 lite on a goophone i5 n2? There's no change on a bricked phone?

I hope somenone can help me

So guys,

Is there any new ROM better than Mayiandjay's rom?

3 issue the phone currently has.

1. I found battery drain was a big issue with this phone,

2. the sms spam's at 2am was another problem

3. and another issue was the desktop resizing itself after closing web browsers strangely.

I am not sure if the latter is a ram issue but the resizing is weird that's for sure. I also found running flash web based video was problematic ???not enough grunt/ram not sure?

Curious if there are solutions to the above. I am sure the Chinese have newer ROMS which have fixed these issues?
