yeah you are right. There are no navigation arrows instead you have to use left and right swiping.

No not cooked by me, but I have done fine tuning of some components. There are minor bugs though, which I can live with. The UI is awesome, was tired of XPERIAHD. The backlight keys have to be manually set to on every time you reboot the phone.

There are so many ROMS, which can be used on Gionee E3.

For eg if you like AOSP, you can use this. You can use all Xolo 800 ROMs. There are plenty.

Hi

So I followed your method and rooted my e3. This was in last Oct. Recently I got my board replaced due to hardware issue. Now when I'm trying to root my phone again, it's not happening. The motochopper tool says FAILED after installing superuser. When I open superuser it says "su binary not updated". What's the actual problem??

Thanks in advance for the help!

P. S. I didn't notice the last post. Mine is the same problem! :)

[Miscellaneous Android Development] trip007in:
Are you planning to only root the phone or you also want to install CWM. In that case you can flash CWM first using SP flashtool, then you can flash any rooting Zip package through CWM like the one published by Chianfire for SuperSu.

What is the firmware version you have and mention the Board version too. You can find it on backside of phone after removing the battery cover. If your FW is different I would have first tried t readback the firmware using the SPflashtool and then made a back up of the original firmware. Also this would have given you the stock recovery backup if this firmware is completely different. But I dont think there should be any issue, try to backup FW, if you can or proceed to flash the CWM through SP flashtool and later root though a rooting package.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Srinath_Newbie:
H/W version : E3_Mainboard_P1

S/W version : E3_0102_V6672

Hope that's what u are referring to..?

EDIT: I planned to flash Cwm after rooting but that can come later also. For now I want to restore backups taken using titanium backup on my older board.

Can u please tell me in steps how to proceed with sp flash tool? I read about bricking and some other problems when working with it.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] trip007in:
I haven't faced any issues using flash tool till today. You will need to switch off your phone run flash tool select the scatter file for E3 i.e mt6589 . And only select the recovery. Provide the path to the custom recovery. There is nothing specific to mention here for our model. You can find several guides for flashing recovery. I am in office so can't send any link for guiding the recovery flash.

I will try to make a back up of Indian firmware version. Which long pending task.

I tried through framaroot n rooted my e3. Confirmed it using titanium backup and root checker. Now trying to flash cwm 6.0.3.3 through mobile uncle tools. I followed these steps -

Saved recovery.img in root folder

In mobile uncle, selected "Recovery Update" n selected the image file.

Selected "Reboot into Recovery ".

The phone reboots to Gionee logo and stays there for 2-3 minutes then slowly the graphics come and reaches the home screen. Tried multiple times with the same result.

Any idea why??

Any other option? Or should i unroot and do it again through sp flash tool?? Totally frustrated :mad:

[Miscellaneous Android Development] trip007in:
Hi, I am uploading a Zip file, containing Original and CWM recovery generated using MTKdroid tools as I had access to the non rooted and unmodified E3. Attaching it here. Try them and let me know. I have put MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc_PMT.txt, incase you want to use SP Flash tool for recovery flashing. But its fine to use mobile uncle tool for recovery flashing too. I have tested it on the non rooted and non modified ROM. Remember its a default CWM recovery generated by MTKdroid tools. So it does almost all the tasks but lacks advanced functionality of latest CWM.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] Srinath_Newbie:
I think I'm missing something here.. Coz the zip file I downloaded has only a recovery.img file.. I wanted to try thru sp flash tool, but it's not loading the .txt file.. :(
[Miscellaneous Android Development] trip007in:
Yes, it is real Kitkat. Just downloaded and checked the Official update from GM discovery. But haven't installed yet on E3. You can try this official version from General Mobile Discovery:

KitKat 4.4.2

I am going to try this tomorrow. There are now some custom roms available based on this Kitkat version.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] trip007in:
I have not uploaded the SP flash tool. You will have to separately download that. Then Put the recovery in the root of SP flashtool along with the Scatter_emmc_PMT. Load the Scatter and flash recovery. If its difficult for you you can use Mobile uncle also for flashing.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kakagi:

Cant Root Using Framaroot after Kitkat Update

Hi, Got it upgraded to Kitkat Using the SP Flash tool. After the upgrade, I cant root my E3 using the Framaroot App.

I have read about a recovery img being over written and then using the sp flash tool.

Has anyone tried it? How safe is it?

Regards

I can now confirm that Recovery img being over written do not work. I have supersu installed, but says there is no binary installed.

Now I cant uninstall Super Su.

Any help?

Edit

I uninstalled and tried again and this time it worked.

It's now rooted
[Miscellaneous Android Development] trip007in:
When you have a custom recovery installed, for rooting you need to flash the rooting package by chainfire. That's the correct way too root your phone.

[General Questions and Answers] Klown80:
Looking at that info, it almost looks like you have a real Galaxy S4, you just have one with Chinese firmware on it. Does this info match your devices info:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2249916

Can you power off the phone and then press and hold Vol Down + Home + Power? Does this take you to a warning screen saying you are about to enter download mode? If so then you do indeed have the real deal, but I think it is a clone.

I see some info that looks funny though, it says your OS is built from the 4.0.3 SDK and you have an ICS kernel in there even though it says you are on 4.2.2, It also only shows you having 500MB of internal storage compared to the 9GB on my S4 if you cant get phone into download mode then I would suggest trying to run Motochopper or Root By Restore to get rooted.

I have rooted my Phone using Motochopper I'm wondering if there's any way to install android 4.2.2 English version on it ??
[General Questions and Answers] Klown80:
Are you not able to go into Settings and change languages? I have bought a few clone phones directly from china and they usually came with english on them but when I reset them they would revert back to chinese and I would have to go into settings and change back to english. I can help guide you through the menus if your menu is in chinese.

As far as roms go, you would most likely either have to find someone with same device that ported a rom over or port it yourself if you know how. Only other option is if there is a forum that supports your specific device.

FYI - to help make looking for a rom a bit easier you have a MT6575 device

[General Questions and Answers] Klown80:
Uninstall SuperSU and superuser then try running Motochopper again. If it still don't work, try the chinese root program I linked above. If it fails to let you update su binary then it most likely failed to root your device. If the chinese root program don't work either I still know of another option since you have a MT6575 processor

I'm gonna be getting one as soon as my plan is up. I have a few questions though.

1. (Disregard this one. Didn't realize this was a Verizon exclusive.)

2. When I first get it should I OTA it, so it doesn't disable the possibility of unlocking it?

3. Is this phone supported by many developers?

If I think of any more, I'll post them. Thanks guys!
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aviwdoowks:

So when I get it I won't be able to unlock it. :mad: Verizon..WHY DO YOU DO THIS...

What version did they patch the BL Unlock method? Cause when I get it I won't be OTA'ing. I will unlock this phone.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragonhart6505:
You will most certainly be able to unlock the phone with the latest update using either cellzealots method or mine, but the bootloader will remain locked disabling the ability to use custom roms. If you get one on the 98.17.66 (?) Software your good to use Matt's Droid RAZR M Utility to unlock the bootloader yet so dont take the update, unlock the bl and do what youd like
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jco23:
stock, this phone is great (not sure about the latest release - although, I think it was just to enable a security patch to prevent folks from unlocking the device). so, essentially, if your version is prior to May 2013, then you'll be able to unlock with current methods - otherwise, you'll have to HOPE for someone to create a new method for unlocking or for the devs to make their ROMs flashable via safestrap.

I'm pretty sure you can still root though.

developer support is great (both kernels and ROMs).
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dragonhart6505:
Root works fine still using the RAZR M Utility
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DubleJayJ:
So if I do get this don't OTA it when it first arrives? I'm down to this phone or the HD
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jco23:
right - do not accept the OTA if your baseband is prior to May 2013. if it reads May 2013, then you've already got the latest, and you're locked until someone really smart decides to crack it.

if you wanted to, go into the store, have them break out the device, and check the baseband.

Solved! It was the DPI tip that led me to correcting this. I adjusted the DPI settings for the phone but didn't see a change. From what I read Samsung apps can't be changed? Anyhow, I opened buil.prop and changed the phone DPI from 320 to 280. This corrected my dialer. Then I changed Nova launcher from 280 to 320 to get my phone back to what I was use to.

I found someone that had the same issue and basically followed his steps. But it was the DPI tip that led me to that thread.
