Hi i am using your rom and its awesome just wanted to say thank you.

I was trying to install a new launcher the "launcher pro" which works alot smoother then the standard one but it keeps failing to open do you know why that it?

would it be possible to make replace the standard launcher with the "ilauncher pro? "

https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...auncher2&hl=en if that is possible the phone will be so smooth! if not can you tell me a way to install it so it does not crash

Also what I had found compared to the alps zophone i had is that ... while in a app you can not double tap the home button and the running apps and music controls show (in the zophone it did). is there anyway to make this possible because if i install the "ilauncher pro" i still want to be able to open the running apps and music controls while in a app?

Thanks

Hello all

I'm looking for a JB or other rom for my Goophone i5. I don't want the iOS theme.

Anyone can help me ?

Thanks

[Miscellaneous Android Development] alduleimi:
Not really sure to be honest.. Only had the ROM installed for about 5min...

Btw, have you tried the link for the new ROM on android-sale.com, the name is "goophone-i5-xda-v2.zip"... am sure I've seen this name before not really sure where ?!! :confused:

@Manuxo, any relation with Joao Mano ?

Can't download flash tool

Hi !

The link for the flash tool doesn't exsist anymore..

Could you provide me with an alternative , pref for mac :) or i can run it in virtualbox.

Download the cwm but stuck at this point.

I hope this fixes the problem that i get the message "signature verification failed" on the stock recovery.

I got my phone from android sale.

His instructions for the V2 rom are easy as hell , but they ain't right .

Cause i ain't got the advanced , wipe dalvik cache option , like many others i think.

Tried v2 and v2.8 and they both give that same message.

I hope someone got a solution for me :)

Really tired of all the chinese crap on it.

Greets

---------- Post added at 02:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:19 AM ----------

Hi , i have the same problem you had.

But can you tell me how you fixed it?

You say that after you made another "chargue" the stock recovery worked?

What do you mean by "chargue" , that you've charged the phone or ?

Would be great if you've got the solution.

;)

So glad i've got my xiaomi m2 as main phone ^^

I've got about 80Mb free from 1Gb RAM? It isn't normal is it? How should I get some free memory? I only installed some basic programs :(
[Miscellaneous Android Development] rafa55:
I chaged the recovery.img foir other that indicated Manuxo before:

Download the English CWM

Download the SmartPhone flash tool

Extract the english cwm

Open the SP Flash Tool

Load the CWM scatter from the extracted folder

Turn off phone

Unplug it from the USB port

Press F9 ->Download Mode on SP Flash Tool

Connect your phone via USB (Make sure that it is turned off)

Wait until every bars finish and a green circle will pop up.

Now this recovery is working in my phone very well

Goophone i5s

Hi,

I have a Goophone i5s I Roote my i5s.

I then flashed "recovery.img" with "mobileuncle tools"﻿ but when reboot the phone in recovery mode, it will not work, I have a screen that displays lines of different colors, and nothing happens.

So I restarts the phone normally.

The file "recovery.img" and the i5 i5s are different? Did you that the i5s?

(same question for the rom?)

A big thank you to you
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
The goophone i5 and i5s have different firmwares. So the software for goophone i5 will not work on goophone i5s.

I've created an thread just for that model. Type goopone i5s on the search input and will see that thread.

Thanks you for your quick answer but there is no rom or instructions for google play .

Do you have a rom for the goophone i5s ?

Thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mimueller92:
Hey there,

I installed the Rom and I've to say it's just great.

Only one problem remaining: Google Calendar won't open (I installed the app from the Playstore) and if I download another Calendar App, like aCalendar or something, it crashes as soon as I try to synchronize with my GoogleCal.

It's written that Calendar Bug is fixed - doesn't that mean that the Synchronization Bug is fixed? Or am I wrong? Is there any option to get that running?

Thanks for a answer!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] c337n:
V2

Would this ROM work on the Goophone i5 N2 V2? I think it has the same hardware, but the main difference is that it's based on android 4.1.1
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
This version of the rom as the calendar bug fixed.

Before you install it you make sure you've wiped data, cache and dalvik cache.

I've got my calendar working.

I'm wating to recieve the goophone i5s to start developing a rom for it.

As soon as i recieve it i will make a rom with playstore and all google apps installed.

I'll post it on the goophone i5s thread.

Regards
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
No.

Probably the quadcore version will bring a different firmware. So the i5 lite roms will not work on the quad core version.

Anyway,when it's released i'll recieve one and i'll do software for it.

Hope i helped you out.

Regards
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
That version brings the Jelly bean version.

So ICS roms will not work on JB firmware.

But i think that goophone i5 lite will be upgradable to JB so when it's released i will start to develop a rom based on that firmware.

Regards
[Miscellaneous Android Development] vnman:
Change Icons?

I see that "Play Store" app icon revert back to Android icon and not "App Store" icon in this ROM.

The google maps apps are not included with this firmware.

Anyway to include the maps apps and fix the play store issue with the next release ROM?

Otherwise I am very happy with the ROM and appreciate what you do for us :)

[Miscellaneous Android Development] mimueller92:
Thanks for your help. Even though it didn't work yet.

I wonder if this Chinese Recovery Tool (found by mayiandjay on youtube ) is the Problem. I'm having problems to get CWM on the phone, I pushed flash_image by adb on the phone (dir: /sdcard/) but it still doesn't know the command in terminal. Mayiandjay explains how to clear cache / dalvic cache / clear data - but as you said it's most likely not well resetted - and I wonder if it's just a crappy tool. (the one i got from mayiandjay)

Did you use CWM or this chinese recovery thingie? And do you have any idea why my flash_image isn't working (as I said I pushed it by adb do /sdcard/ but my phone doesn't seem to know that command in Terminal (or is there anything like SYS32 on Android, where such files need to be located?)

Thank you!:good:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
I've already tried to translate that apk.

The problem is that when i try to compile it back to replace the original one it stops working. I can't even compile it.

I think this apk is not finished yet. Is half baked. That's why you can't access to the APN settings are you are not able to enter in some areas of settings.

I'll see what i can do. But i ask you patience because this kind of things are a lot time consumers and i'm alone developing ROMS for it.

So with time and patience all things may be fixed.

Hi

This is a very good ROM. I've made a few customisation changes for my needs but, overall perfect. One thing I was wondering if it's at all possible. Can the stock Browser be included in the ROM? I prefer it over all others I've tried and besides I need flash running in the browser as well. I've tried to place it in the /system/app folder and setting the permissions but it doesn't install/work. I'd be very appreciative if you could help me out.

Thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Chi Am:
Personally, I find the Boat Browser to be untrustworthy. So deleted it from the ROM and installed Chrome.

Add it to ROM>data>app......................flash through CWM (be sure not to mix .zip files with un-zipped files)

Hi. I just received the Goophone i5s. I'm curious as to how I can remove the iPhone skinning and just have a plain jane JB interface. Is it too new for now? I can make do with it as necessary - there is a rudimentary JB mode but ti still has the iOS-like settings, etc.

Also, for research sake, I'll be glad to run any diags requested.

[edit]

Also - any opinions on whether its safe to set it up with my Google account. Not to be paranoid, but is there a chance it has spyware?

I don't want to make an hard reset!! D:

[Miscellaneous Android Development] AllanBjorklund:
Manuxo, thank you for this ROM. (I found it via the android-sale website.)

I have just a couple of things that I've come across in the first few minutes using it.

The "Tools" folder (holding the calculator, contacts, compass, etc.) is now just called "Folder".

Under settings, I can't locate the "Location Services" option, that held the options for GPS, and using Wireless Networks for location data,

Thank you, again, for the work you've put into this!

Easy Touch?

Hi there, I really like this rom, but I miss the little transparent circle (I think it was called easytouch something..not sure).

Can anyone tell me what's this app name please? Or how can I Install it?

Thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mat33n:
you can get it from the play store its called "easytouch"

Hi, I had the same phone as you its the ALPS phone right? AKA zophone clone? way to tell is on the status pull down menu has it already got buttons for "wifi mobile data gps brightness etc? if it does its a Alps zophone. so it is not a goophone. It runs a totally different software (which is better then the goophone one in my opinion). I had the same problem as it it would not go into recovery :( (it would hang with a apple logo and at the bottom right it was say "recovery mode ==>") and it was sold as being a dual core but was only a single core (they faked the specs on antutu you can find the real specs with z test device) i ended up returning it and buying a goophone i5.

The funny thing is i got my goophone from efit as well from dhgate he was selling as a zophone but was a actually a goophone.. i guess now he must be selling the zophone and actaully sending a zophone?

anyway https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yug15uD_BSA mayandjay is working on a rom for the zophone so subscribe to his channel and what from the rom. hes one is the nano sim version but it runs the same software.

hope that helps.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] AllanBjorklund:
A few more things that I've come across.

Auto Rotation doesn't work,and the setting is set to on.

Under settings, I think "Memorie" should be "Notes" for the English name. That will then match the app icon on the main screen.

---------- Post added at 11:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:51 AM ----------

I'm also having this issue. I did go through all the steps to wipe all the caches before installing the ROM. The debugging data says there is an illegal column name "calendar_color". Google search for that turned up nothing.

Any advice?

Goophone Boot

Hi there, How can I remove the Goophone Logo when I boot?

I went to system/media and renamed the folders, the apple logo appears, but the goophone logo appears first.

thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
That's because you flashed the 0131 ROM with the flash tool.

That ROM brings a different boot logo (Goophone logo). So when you change the name of that 2 files you are changing the OS boot logo and not the phone boot logo. They are 2 different things. So if you want to erase that you must flash only the boot.img from a previous firmware.

Battery

Manuxo just a question: do you think that the goophone i5 will work with a battery case for iphone 5?? This could really help the battery's life, so I'll give it a try, hope it works! :|

Oh, another question: I closed my phone yesterday with 43% of battery, but this morning when I openened it the battery was at 36%!! Then I tried left it closed all the day and after 10 hours I re-opened it, but strangely the battery level was at 37%! O.o +1% of battery! O.o

So the problem is that sometimes the goophone discharges even if it's closed!!! Tried to close it with airplane mode and without airplane mode, but the result is the same: sometimes it discharge! :( Do you know something to fix that? It's very annoying! D:

And I still cannot understand why it drains the battery so fast while playing 2D games or doing things over wi-fi! :(
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
I've the first model ever of goophone i5 lite. I have recieved the sample to improve the software.

So i'm not really facing any problem with my battery. Mine last for 2 days without a single charge.

But as it seems the next version of it came with battery issues.

Try to boot into the recovery mode and wipe the battery stats. For the i advice you to charge your phone until 100% and then wipe that.
