I totally disagree...for normal use its ok..for heavy use you need extra battery

post your normal use data charts, please :) I have seen what you got one day, but I had also a very good one day chart, even better that yours, but it never happened again

if you instal gsam battery monitor, with only one screen you show all the data, total use, screen, wifi, radio, etc.
[Android General] leros2004:
a typicaly use for me is :

3g always on (1-2 3g data), about 3 hours calls

wifi alway on

viber always on (extensive chating & phone)

web surf (youtube)

fm radio

this is a typical day 2 1/2 screen on:
[Android General] elsita:
with that kind of use most users don't reach 15 hours of day time, so you have to charge the phone twice a day

it is quite strange that one phone behaves so different to everyone else ...

[Android General] steve1221:
Does anyone have a link for any cases for the V3?

I'm in the UK and I can only find 2. One is a copy of the free one that comes with the phone, which I'm not a fan of. The other is silver and sparkly and looks like it might suit Elton John, but not me ;)
[Android General] ctibor:

No, it's not.

You can install some third party apps (search Play for 'Air gesture') but I think they are useless...

hi i'm new here, kinda interested in buying the inew v3 phone, iv just damaged my current one and this looks pretty decent.

Does any1 know what site's are safe to buy from,?? is ahappydeal.com or aliexpress.com reliable and safe?

also for an alternative battery and a few extra percentage, apparently you can use a thl 2000Mah battery... is that safe? heres a guy on youtube.com/watch?v=2BmlNFUADN4 who has tried
[Android General] thienvandac:
No one use this phone anymore? I had it,sell for my friend and waiting for a new one next week, but I do not see any new rom like 1.0.5 or something just a cook(and need to donate) one. Are you still there? Burs? Anyone? Dont left me alone here
[Android General] Burs:
Switch over to chinaphonearena forum. V3 users are more active there. Your last post was 6 weeks ago, so you might post something there as well. We also have a big ROM subforum, so you can check it altogether.

[Android General] thienvandac:
I see your signature already, inew v3 expert :) but I cant not post at some points (mostly) that why you cant see any of my post. As I say before, I come there the same time as you but I cant post even reply(chatting off the topic is ok,dunno why). I see the new rom but not 1.0.5 or later but base on 1.0.3??? it Confuse me alot, and no one try it yet to have picture or video. Just as I new to the phone and no one there, just old stuff with problems

---------- Post added at 03:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:32 PM ----------

I forget to watch it, but it hard for you to buy a battery like that. I think the battery is ok if you dont use it much(when you use it much the camera zone is ex hot and hard to touch, why you want to damage it so early?just hard use for 1h30mins and charge(for it to cooldown by not using much freq(mhz) and it will be normal for your second half). I will have a new next week and this time I will post my picture of using 3g almost a working day(9am-9pm) for you.
[Android General] homepage:
I was with the guy until he started soldering/prying the contacts off. Messing around with Li-Ion batteries can be fairly dangerous, and I'm not exactly sure if risking a blown-up phone is worth the 10% (at most, if those mAh values are correct) more battery life. Better get a powerbank or second battery imho.
[Android General] jimmy_xp:
Hi, I bought this power bank for my iNew V3 - can't post links so it's - YooBao YB-6012 5200mAh Mobile Power Bank for Mobile Phone (bought from pandawill). Yesterday, I tried charging my phone for the first time via this power bank. I had almost 36% of the battery and started charging. The percentage of the battery lever was increasing amazingly fast. Phone was fully charged in approx. 20 minutes! The USB connector was quite warm. How this could be possible? From my simple calculations, the current flowing to the battery was about 3 500 mA - 100% - 36% = 64% = 1830mAh x 0,64 = 1171.2 mAh needed to charge, 20 min is 0,33 hour = 1171.2 / 0.33h = 3549 mA! This current will definitely damage the battery and phone. But, the phone and battery is working ok.
[Android General] Drosses:
wow nice smartphone.
[Android General] mariio85:
he isn't removing the contacts, but some kind of "caps" above the real contacts. At least this is what he says in the video. I'm following the original thread in an italian forum and he claims that the inew battery is not 1830mah but less, because after using that thl battery his phone's autonomy increased a lot. Also he warns about avoiding to touch two caps at the same time or you're gonna shortcut the battery
[Android General] EvangelineX:
How to solve the problem of Inew V3 automatic restart?
[Android General] kokuo81:
I'm the guy of the video :)

And mariio85 is indeed right.

The soldering iron is only needed to remove the "caps" from the real battery contacts, not the contacts themselves.

Regarding the true capacity of the stock battery, with that one I used to reach 3p.m. with 12% of battery left. With the THL W8 battery, I usually have between 35% and 39% charge left at midnight...

If you do the math, you will agree with me that the 170mAh capacity difference between the 2 batteries cannot be the (only) answer to such a good performance increase.

Cheers

kok
[Android General] milanji:

[Android General] strippio100:
Hi all,

which is the best and fast way to have Volume Wake on this phone? i it is possible with root only?

thank you!
[Android General] Burs:
AFAIK, rooted phones only. Use Xposed+GravityBox. Might not be the best way, but personaly I have these installed, although I don't even use "Volume rocker wake" feature. You might have a need for it anyway, if you have a date/time bug, or wish to change other aspects of your stock rom.
[Android General] strippio100:
thank you,

i installed all, but i don't found the action to activate volume wake. There is "Disable Volume Wake(for Jiayu phone)" but not "enable". i tried this last option but nothing.
[Android General] Burs:
Disable volume wake? Jiayu phone? Are you sure you're searching for it in GravityBox settings?

Go to Navigation key actions/Volume rocker wake menu (set it to Enable, because System default is Disabled). And that should be it.

Could the other part of the answer be that THL's battery is charged to true 100% (but inside the phone, and not by external charger)? Because I was under impression that it's the hardware part on the motherboard responsible for not charging the battery to full load? So, the ultimate question is, does THL battery also have "88%-bug", and do we get the full load potential out of it?
[Android General] linr_76:
different versions

hi guys and girls,

a quick question.

there seem to be at least 3 Versions of this phone around -

V3, V3-E (these seem to be the most common) and V3-C

until now it seems there is no difference between these 3.

could you have a look at yours which one you have?

Thanks very much
[Android General] Edufex:
I think V3-C ( C=China ) and V3-E ( E=Europe) and the first one is the same V3-C
[Android General] EvangelineX:
Where can I see these differences?
[Android General] linr_76:
Settings - about device
[Android General] Edufex:

Just like that.
[Android General] xplorr:
Kokuo, do you know if this THL W8 battery can also be used with these phones that have almost the same thickness, processor and specs as the iNew v3: HaiPai P6 also sold as: Jiake P6.

So could I use your battery mod also for these phones: HaiPai P6 or Jiake P6?

Can anybody report the exact measures of the original battery. Is there a database of all battery sizes of chinese smartphones?

I guess a lot more batteries could be interchanged between phones.
[Android General] ElbertB:
As far i know the Jiake P6 battery wouldn't fit because the connector pins are not equal to our iNew V3.

I have ordered a THL W8 battery too last week, i think i will receive it in the next week.
[Android General] 12808:

should i buy inew v3

Hello friends,

I am from india. i am very impressed with the specs of this phone. what i liked more is the slimness of the device.

1)

i got to see your replies in this thread, that there are so many compromised software issues.

nfc, clock,battery,etc

i use mobile phone for camera,whatsapp,internet and calling.(this list is prioritized)

i would like to know if the device will stand day to day use for an average user like myself.

also,does the phone have heating problem?

lastly,if someone could show some camera samples and o.s. screenshots?

thanks.
[Android General] chinaphonebeglium:
see hereunder
[Android General] chinaphonebelgium:
Camera was also my priority number one, and the quality is very good

I don't have overheating problems, but it heats a bit ofcourse.

The battery is a little bit problematic, I have to charge it every day with intensive use, or within the 2 days with normal use.

I cannot post samples because of the link restriction :(
