sorry, I read the whole tread but I could not tell if this rom can be installed on goophone i5 sold by android-sale.com:

(Manufacturer: Goophone

Model: Goophone I5 (dual-core version)

Phone Style: Bar, multi-touch screen, 4-inch Capacitive Touchscreen

Operating System: Android 4.0 OS

Processor: Dual-core 1GHz MTK MT6577 chipset (Dual-core version))

or is it just for the goopone i5 lite.

Andoid-sale.com there is an update for i5 goophone with the name: goophone-i5-xda-v2.zip I would understand if this is of this page.

Also on the instructions says that goes installed from recovery, but does not explain if first you need to make the root or install a modified recovery.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] pfr:
Yes. This ROM will work with your phone.

There are two ways of installing CWM recovery. First is rooting the phone and install ROM from the phone and SD card, second is by flashing it using Flash Tool - from PC and via USB cable.

To install this ROM you need to install CWM recovery first, then copy ROM to SDCARD and install it from CWM

What time and day will the new ROM be released?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Svehan:
Hello,

ROM and FaceTime

Hallo Manuxo,

I have made a donation and would be grateful if you could send me the latest ROM.

Can you also assist with FaceTime log in? I always get an "activation failed" message when I try to activate it, even if the sim number is already associated to a FaceTime account.

Great thanks!

Fantastic efforts by Manuxo ...

Hi Manuxo,

I have donated whatever little I can and it is my sincerest appreciation of what you have continued to do tirelessly. Even though I do not like the Goophone very much, I like it that you have continued to serve the community of Goophone users.

Cheers ... :cool:

I agree, it's pretty weak, but it works!

[YOUTUBE]DrPLP38QFRM[/YOUTUBE]

Here's a little something you can do (if your phone is rooted):

Install Fasterfix start it and set it to your location.

Delete /data/misc/mtkgps.dat

Activate AGPS and EPO

Go into the Engineer Mode (MTK) (use Mobileuncle tools to get there) and click on YGPS

Go OUTSIDE(!!!!) and wait until you have a fix.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] derfusme:
gps

Hi Colonelzap,

Thx for the hints. I installed Fasterfix and set my location (europe). But I didn't find the mtkgps.dat file.

In the YGPS section i can see several satellites, but when i'm lauching copilot he's not able to see at least one.

Will try again later.

Cheers :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ColonelZap:
That's a good start but you also need a fix there. Be patient, a FIRST fix might take up to 1.5 hours.

Hey all,

What is the difference between this ROM and Mayiandjayv2 ROM?

I have the goophone I5 and have rooted it and placed mayiandjay's v2rom onto it and phoen runs great very good so far.

So far bugs to report:

1. GPS wifi in google maps does not work

2. GPS works but you have to go into mobile uncle tools and select ygps and get it going in there.

3. You can install flashinstalelr ics from adobe and this will enable you to watch flash videos.

4. sometimes boatmini browser will crash when visiting websites not sure why.

5. screen quality is very good with excellent contrasts and colors.

6. reception very good has 3G 2100/900 support I can see this in mobile uncle tools.

7. sms works great and fast

8. dual core gets very hot when using and phone gets hot

9. wifi is a little weak

10. 3G icon not showing data throughput when connected via 3G

I will continue to post feedback offer help etc.

Nice to see an English recovery image. China one is not too bad bu the slide to confirm needs your finger to slide towards bottom of slider for this installing.

Anywayz a great phone nevertheless.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] vafly:

In what apk to find the line "slide to unlock". I want to translate into Russian. I can't find(
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
Slide to unlock

Install this ROM and you will have that problem solved.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ColonelZap:
It's called IphoneLockScreen.apk, to be found in the system/app folder :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] paasklaas:
Thanx for your fix. It did work. I got a fix within a few seconds but.....

The next day I didn't get a fix anymore. So I repeated the steps and also deleted the EPO file, but still no fix. Am I doing something wrong. Am I missing a step??

Edit. Forgot to mention that the first time I did get a fix I saw in Mobile uncle tools those red dots in my radar screen. After repeating the steps they were gone. Maybe Mobile unclo tools isn't reading the EPO file anymore????

[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
I got my phone, got it to charge(finally) and installed this rom. I do, however, have some questions as it's not functioning exactly like it should.

1- There is no system/app folder on the root of the device or sd card. I created one though...

2- The slide to un(c)lock still says unclock. I replaced the apk with the one provided in the opening post, but it still doesn't work. Any ideas?

3- **Unrelated to this rom** The battery life is terrible. I've updated the build.prop file to include the "ro.mot.deep.sleep.supported=true" section among the others posted here, but it doesn't seem to help. I've also tried some battery saving apps like Juice Defender, but they can only help so much. Any ideas?

4- Boat Browser constantly opens a Chinese website in the second tab.

5- **Unrelated to this rom** I rooted the phone using this, and it somewhat worked. I now have the SuperUser icon added to the homescreen, however, when I launch it, it gives me a, "Installation Failed" error after asking me to update it. Then, when I try to use apps like Titanium Backup, it tells me I can't use the app because I don't have root access.

Thanks in advance to those that can possibly point me in the right direction.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
That ROM already come rooted. You shouldn't root a rooted ROM, so the root is not necessary.

About the battery life, it is not a rom problem but a phone problem instead. Let the battery drain completely, charge it until it is 100% completed.

After that turn the phone in clockworkmode, wipe battery stats and you will see the battery life increased.

I hope this information help you out.

Regards
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
Thanks, I'll give the battery thing a try.

Do you have any ideas on how to fix the Un(c)lock issue? After flashing your rom onto the phone, it still didn't change. Even after replacing the iPhoneLockScreen.apk from Colonel Zap's post (HERE), it still says, "Slide to Unclock".

I've tried downloading Chrome, but even chrome opens a second tab with a Chinese website. Is there something I can do to change this?

Also, I'm not sure if this is related specifically to this ROM, but after inputting your details into the email app, there doesn't seem to be a way to change the email address or any of the other info. As far as I can tell, there isn't even a way to delete your info. Is there a way to reset your personal information, after it already has been inputted?

Thanks again. Your ROM works WAY better than the stock ROM that came with the phone. :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] pfr:
I am not 100% sure if it is better than N2 ;) Less memory, worse screen, a little thicker and has nano SIM card :P

It scores about 7040 in Antutu benchmark, where my I5 N2 over 8300. But there is one very interesting thing in that phone - Android version 4.1.1. I would like to port that to i5 N2...still searching...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] AShacks:
8300 ain't right. It's -2000 = 6300. You'll see that if you go to the tab ranking. My goophone scored 5900 displayed as 8900 lol. I don't like the screen on te i5 that much. Got screen burn keyboard on low brightness. And you can see the pixels.. but hey. For that money it's cheap. And with this rom it's a lot more valuable. Good luck with the V2!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jo139:

That is true, all iPhone clones has only 5112 mb RAM, but N2 has 16 GB SD, where N2 V2 "only" 10 GB

Great job on the ROM.

This ROM is also a battery saver!

Keep up the good work!

Settings Crash: I'm searching for the reason of this to happen. I've been searching for the error but i didn't find it yet.

Clear Button: I've ported this from a chinese stock rom! I'll edit it and put only a cross to avoid it to overlay the notifications.

On the next release i'll try to fix this, but i can't promess that.

Hallo Manuxo and thanks for new rom, very nice work.

I still have a few issues and not sure if solutions are already available, grateful if you could let me know. The problems are:

1. FaceTime fails to activate;

2. If I update the gmail app from play store, it crashes and stops working;

3. I cannot set up my gmail account through the phone's mail app.

I would be grateful for any guidance on these.

issues

great rom but the issues i am having is ...

- receiving text massages and calls i only see the persons number and not name! its really annoying i have no idea who is calling or texting and that number is in my contacts... anyone else having this issue?

- silent button on the side does not go silent but works to make it normal? anyone else having the same issue?

also anyway of getting notifications on the lock screen?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] pfr:
I had the same issue with previous release. Im my case the issue was caused by adding country extension number to all my contacts like (+44 xxx xxx xxx instead of xxx xxx xxx). To fix the issue I had to login to GMAIL, export contacts to CSV, edit them in Excel, remove all contacts from GMAIL and import again. You can check in GMAIL - Contacts that when edit phone number, you choose country from drop down menu, no need to type it in the phone number :)

Sielent button is working partialy, but not mute the phone ;)

Regarding your question about porting apps from one ROM to another - the easiest way is to use Titanium Backup. Powerfull tool. Please proceed with steps below :

* install Manuxo ROM 1.2.8

* backup application

* install Manuxo ROM 1.3.1

* restore the application :)

There are many options in Titanium Backup, like removing applications from ROM, adding application to ROM etc...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mat33n:
wow that seems like a annoying and lengthy process. but none of my contacts are coming up ones with area code and ones without so yeah :(

As for the Titanium backup.. i have tried that and also I have tried to push them to the phone via adb but still does not seem to work.. been trying all day! different things...

Also when trying to get into settings for a few apps like accuweather etc it just says app as stopped working which is annoying.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] pfr:
Maybe you should reinstall ROM (and don't forget to wipe data/factory and clear dalvik cache)

You can then try to extract applications from /system/app folder from ROM ZIP, then copy it to your phone and install manually...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
That facetime that is present on the settings it is just a dummie. it don't work ;) It is just to be the same as iOS.

In android you don't need facetime installed to make video calls.

you can notice then when you select one certain contact it will open, and it will show you the facetime option to do video calls.

When you are dialing to someone you can also see that option present over there. And on MMS on the top of them you can see that option to.

This is all you need to know about making video calls. Don't forget to enable 3G data connection to do it, otherwise they will not work.

[MENTION=4283396]Manuxo[/MENTION] - new version looks better, smoother and more stable. Great work ! I hope you will continue your work with your great ROM :

So far the following issues comes to my mind :

* Notification bar (green CLEAR X) covers half od the message in notification screen (I don't know how to explain that;) )

* In the General settings when press Spotlight - it crash

* Phone is not detected as USB drives anymore.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
I know all this errors!

About the notification bar..i ported this from a chinese rom but i will fix it! :) im thinkin about just to keep the cross and erase the rest so it don't overlay the notification it self.

About the settings....the core of the software was ported from another model. Zophone, so as goophone, the OS have some bugs to. I've managed to fix the camera bug but there is a lot more to do.

The USB drives i can't use it also :). I advice you to use android until i find a way to fix this :)

I'm already working on the version 1.3.2. This week i will release the 1.3.1 for general public as usual and maybe next week i release the 1.3.2 to all donators.

Once again thank you for supporting me.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] mat33n:
that was the first thing i tried to install apps manually. I can live with that the just the most annoying thing is not knowing who is calling or texting! anyone else having this issue?

I have one more question, when I leave phone connected to charger for a night the phone is not fully charged morning. It looks it is charged until reach 100% and then even it show that it is connected to charger, it drains battery... Am I only having this issue ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mmax76:
Thanks!

Thanks a lot for the patience and the explanation!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
Do the following:

Let the phone drain completly, after that connect it to the charger with it powered off and wait until it reaches 100%.

Turn on the phone in CWM mode go to Advanced and wipe the battery stats.

Tell me the result then.

contacts issue?

anyone got a sulition for me regarding the contacts names not displaying?

Also i have tried everything to port over 1.2.8 roms to 1.3.1 and nothing seems to work.

- i have tried copy and paste

- doing it via titanum back up

- pushing the app via adb

but no luck at all! i want a few of the old apps that look nicer...

- gallery

- msg

- and most importantly the lock-screen for notifications! it is annoying not knowing when you have missed a call or text.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] pfr:
Try this - ask someone or call from other phone to you goophone. Add this displayed number as new contact, name it somehow, call again and let me know if the contact has been displayed correctly.

Language translations

Hi Manuxo, at first i have to say you do/did your work very well.

I installed 1.3 and the translations are not really the real meaning i am from germany and you can see here

Wifi is translated to more and the most are in english not in german i hope you have time to show me how i can change the translations (possible )?

If you need the real translated words i can give you them

thank you
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kthz:
I'm sorry, i got no solution for you.. but i wanted to add, if Manuxo can't get notifications on lock-screen... You can give a shot to "NoLED" app, although it may consume some more battery than the lockscreen.

It's same for french, i could also give a hand for missing / missed translations. I think we all could help you with different languages if you provided some english file that we would translate "naturally".

Anyway, thank you Manuxo, i've donated you just because your rom is so smoother than original one, it's now an even nicer present for my gf. ;)

Hope you will do a followup with next Goophone based on Iphone 5S design, i might get one if it's dual sim / quadcore / 1080p screen etc... :)
