It is from there home shop so yes i think so an it has 4G lte
[Android General] EvangelineX:
China has many mobile phone manufacturers have been applied for by 4G business license, 2014 will launch a 4G phone.
[Android General] Robert036:
Not worth the wait.
[Android General] -highwind-:
Dont let the "half baked" preleak and/or pre-sell-shop informations fool you :)

There has been some renaming confusion because the phone had atleast three different names (probably tied to different stages of developement).

It was called "THL Monkey King 2" (simply because it had comparable stats to the original THL Monkey King) by some websites which focus on chinese phone information leaks.

After THL did the annoucement for their new 8-Core smartphone it was named "THL T100" and now it will be released as "THL T100S Ironman"...

Whatever you call it ultimately, it is all the same phone!

You can check at the official website (remove spaces):

en. thl. com.cn /products/1.html?classify_id=1576

en. thl. com.cn /product/t100-34.html

(Neither thlmobilemall .com nor thlmobilestore. com are official)

As of now the display measures 5 inch (5 and 5.3 inch where rumored), it supports GSM 900/1800MHz GSM and 850/2100MHz WCDMA (there has been some confusion about frequencies aswell), the battery has a capacity of 2700mAh (there where rumors of only 2250-2300mAh) and it uses Corning Gorilla Glas 3 (not 2)... It wont have 4G LTE though (Mediatek LTE enabled chipsets will come Q2 2014)

It will most likely be available from 10th of december (tomorrow).

Hope that clears up some of the confusion.

an yes i know mtk has sent out some new 6290 chipset fore test
[Android General] -highwind-:
I know this thlmobilestore. com website aswell, but I do not think it is their "official shop" because the official (non-store-)THL sites are

www .thl .com .cn (chinese) and en .thl .com .cn (english) and both of them do not even link to thlmobilestore .com, but instead link to other shoping based sites.

Also, if you check www .thl .com .cn /News /detail-547 .html (no hyperlink spam protection is annoying btw) and use some translator you can see that they call the exact same phone "Monkey King 2" there but no word of 4G/LTE and the look matches the THL T100S aswell.

MT6590 has LTE and prototypes might have been sent out aswell, but is only 4-core chip, so it wouldnt fit to an 8-core Monkey King 2 either
[Android General] -fluffy-:
Isnt it called 6290
[Android General] EvangelineX:
I have already bought this phone, now waiting for delivery.
[Android General] -highwind-:
As far as I know the MT6590 is the 4-Core LTE Chip and the MT6595 is the 8-Core LTE Chip

MT6290 was either the name for the baseband module or it was a name for some soc which was changed afterwards... It has/had to do with Mediatek LTE, that is for sure. ;)

On the THL100/Monkey King2 topic:

It seems that the version for the Chinese market is called "Monkey King 2" while the international version is called "THL T100"

Monkey King 2 supports TD-SCDMA+WCDMA (so wont be usable mainly in USA) while T100 supports WCDMA/GSM (so wont be usable in some Asian networks)... everything else seem to be the same.

THL T100S occasional automatic restart, how to solve this problem?
[Android General] EvangelineX:
You can be in THL's official website to download the latest firmware, then upgrade.
[Android General] zdravke:
I have the latest fw and still have the same problem, both on W200 and T100s. Actually, I see all the same problems on all THL phones, which gives very little hope they will ever be resolved. It's typical chinese strategy - sell the specs and ignore the bugs.
[Android General] EvangelineX:
Their technical level is limited, so the Chinese mobile phone has been doing is not powerful.
[Android General] zdravke:
I am aware of that. I am just wondering if there is a cheap chinese brand that does the job properly and better than THL, that might be worth switching to.

This is the confirmed list so far:

1) Camera preview has slow frame rate under low light

2) Compass does not work in vertical position (heading flips by 180 deg as soon as you put phone in vertical position)

3) Occasional random reboots

4) Voice calls received over BT while Google Navigation is running are completely garbled.

5) BT disconnects intermittently.

6) BT voice calls sometimes breaking up.

7) BT audio streaming starts breaking up as soon as I touch the screen and unlock the phone.

All of these are present in W200 to except number 4) and 7).

[Android General] lookylooky1975:
I've tried several mt6592 phones and don't find them a lot faster for general use. I do find the web browsing faster. What I have noticed is the 8 core mediateks run very hot when pushed and are noticeably harder on the battery. Of course this thread is about the thl t100s which I have not tried. Maybe an owner can give their thoughts.
[Android General] zdravke:
This phone is by far the worst chinese device I ever used. Today, BT was unusable - voice was totally garbled and impossible to understand. After restarting BT and reconnecting the phone to BT, voice cleared up, until the point the phone rebooted itself in the middle of the conversation. Now, this is a showstopper for me, and it's going back to China.
[Android General] lookylooky1975:
I own a h9008 and it's a pretty nice. Overall a great phone for the price. Only issues are it gets really hot when gaming and the on screen time is not so good. Maybe they can fix the battery issues with an update.
[Android General] EvangelineX:
I think the 5.7 inch screen is too big, bad single hand operation, because I don't play games and watch video.
[Android General] peter_90:
Leaving aside the BT, any other problems?
[Android General] aethelworth:
I have a problem with running chrome for 10+ minutes or so, the touchscreen starts to get erratic and only accepting every third or fourth touch, the phone gets hot so it may be a problem with overheating.

I'd strongly reconsider purchasing this phone. There are honestly a lot better engineered phones out there.

I put the phone volume to maximum, the sound is still very small, how to solve this problem? thank you

That's because compass is broken. All gps apps use compass to determine heading when stationary. I am pretty sure this does not work for anyone.

T100S issues

During last couple of days, I could not reproduce the issues I was having with BT:

1) MP3 playback was fine over BT, and even after the screen was unlocked

2) I added GPS to the picture, but playback stayed fine even during GPS navigation

3) FLAC playback was also fine, also with GPS on

4) I tried calling VM during FLAC and GPS operation, and voice was only slightly breaking up, but that's not a big deal.

I have no idea what happened, as I did not perform any major changes on the phone. Now that it appears to work ok, I took a nandroid backup to freeze the current state in case the problem reappears.

I've had this phone for a couple of months now and have had issues since the start.

1) Blue tooth connection to Car wouldn't pair, I had to download a bluetooth fix app from play store to fix the pairing. But this didn't resolve my phonebook not syncing problem.

2) Phone randomly reboots itself for no reason at all when on a call.

3) My phone has now stopped getting a signal on both sim cards, so the phone is unusable as a phone. I have tried my sims in other phones and they work perfectly. I have tried flashing the latest official ROM (as well as a couple of custom ones) from Needrom and this has not made any difference, the phone is still unusable as a phone.

4) I don't want to have to send this phone back to china so I have order a replacement cell antenna and will replace it myself. When it arives I'll see if this resolve the issue. I have also read that other THL phone models exhibit this same sim signal problem.
