Sorry my friend. I don't have your phone but I don't know about this phone also. Did you try calling with earphones?

I think if you read this thread fully you may find some solution or else Google your problem. Somewhere, you may find help.
[General Questions and Answers] fundasul85:
Ok thanks.

Of course it works with earphones and Bluetooth

Maybe mirceat or someone else which have the phone could give me a hint.

Hi there. Recently I flashed a ROM which rendered my phone useless. The ROM is an official one from but H2.12. I flashed using CWM. After flashing, CWM prompted me if I wanted to flash the custom recovery with the official recovery which was in the ROM. So I clicked on YES. Then trying to boot the phone, the only thing I saw was the white screen with the Nubia logo inside! Pressing volume+ with power combined I still see the logo. It looks like it doesn't have a recovery ; neither does it have a ROM. Right now I've tried several methods but nothing is working. So how can I install a new recovery mode inside this phone? Remember the phone has no recovery nor a ROM.

Upgrade to kitkat or lollipop

Hello Guys

I have a nubia z5s with 4.2 jb, custom rom (which is almost factory just with gapps) and with cwm 6.0.3.7 recovery.

I want to upgrade to kitkat or even lollipop but since i have almost completely bricked my phone two times in the last 2 years when a wanted to change something, i'm a bit afraid of starting in this one.

May i ask the help of the community?

Which recovery should i flash and which rom do u suggest? Is this even this simple to just flash a rom with a relatively fresh recovery to upgrade to kitkat? Can you write me a step by step solution like tivac's guide?

I've read some threads and followed some youtube links but they weren't so clear for me and as i mentioned i'm a bit afraid of doing something with my almost perfectly working phone.

I'll appreciate any help! :)

How many among you have the volume button problem? My volume- button suddenly died, after few days also the volume+ came to the same end.

i do both volume keys died on me then camera key sunk in

if you apply enough pressure they work volume down apply pressure near middle of keys vol up push key upwards like you are trying to bend it then push it inwards works.

i complained on nubia forums they offered to fix but the catch was i have to pay for shipping to china and back but the cost vs problem is not enough for me to do that:rolleyes:

Qualcomm sucks for sure!

Nubia Z5S was a great phone. Still is. But right now the market is flooded with 64bit phones making this phone lose value so fast. Mine has no volume buttons working. I plan to buy Redmi Note 3 because I just don't want Qualcomm chip in my phone again. I think right now MEDIATEK Hellio X10 is great. It's cheaper, high performing and battery friendly in contrast to any other Qualcomm chip in the market.

Did you get it mate?

Are you Greek by any chance? if yes: Πόσο το πήρες ρε 'σύ και απο πού; ψήνομαι να τσιμπήσω ένα, γούσταρα ένα xiaomaki αλλά το 64άρι το χτυπάνε στα αυτιά ή δεν το βρίσκεις ετοιμοπαράδοτο

P.S. In case you're wondering what I wrote in Greek I'll make a word-by-word translation to eliminate your curiosity:

"How much did you get it and from where? I'm baked to pinch one, I'd fancy one xiaomi but the 64gigs are hitting it in the ears and you can't find it in stock" hahahaha (yeah it doesn't make really sense but there you go :p)

I'm between: Xiaomi Mi3 64GB[because 16GB version is not enough and there isn't a microsd slot], ZTE Nubia Z5S 32GB[No microsd slot either], TCL Idol X+(if they release at least 32GB version because there is no microsd slot either) or it's brother Alcatel One Touch Idol X+ 16GB(it has microsd slot up to 32GB so I don't care if it's 16GB). A Chinese cpu might be interesting especially if they release a 2.3GHz version of the MT6595 which would be very powerful even compared to qualcomm cpu's. Anyway the only disappointing factor in all these phones is that CyanogenMOD isn't really doing any development for these phones and also XDA community doesn't have any devs to support these so if you get one.. you'll probably stick to the stock android or play around with some Chinese roms that you may find here and there.. nothing solid, no one to support you if sh*t happen which is a shame as these phones are quite powerful

[General Questions and Answers] Bindy33:
Hi, I'm also between these two mobiles Nubia Z5s 32GB without LTE and TCL Idol X+ 32GB. I thing that TCL Idol X+ 16GB does not have microCD slot am I right? Because if yes it's better to buy 16GB plus 32GB micro card and it's even cheaper than 32GB version... Do you have some info about photo quality between these two mobiles?
[General Questions and Answers] robgee789:
im also thinking about getting the idol x+ but the tcl version doesnt have a sd slot because they ue the space for a second sim, but the europen version which will be released by alcatel with have single sim option which will have the sd slot, but this is just what ive been able to dig up and nothing is 100% yet lol

Anyone seen this error before? I can't install the KingNubia rom, but I have no idea what this means.
[General Questions and Answers] WhiteDragonNL:
Turns out my rom was corrupt. Installed a freshly downloaded version and it works.

Only problem, I'm sitting next to my router and I have only 1 bar of wifi reception for 2.4Ghz and do not see my 5Ghz signal at all. This worked fine with stock rom.

Any ideas?
[General Questions and Answers] evronetwork:
Nubia should have superior camera but not by much

Alcatel if it really has a microsd slot(because I hear some rumors that they might ditch it in the final product) it would be great. Another phone that I came across is the Lenovo Vibe Z K910 (I can get it for 330E including shipping, for comparison Nubua Z5s 16GB costs me 330E too while the 32GB version costs me 370E), it has a snapdragon 800 (2.2GHz) but of course the lack of microsd and the 16GB(I believe it would be around 12GB of useful space) is the problem

Mediatek announce the new MT6595 which would be 4 cores of A17 and 4 cores of A7 but they could even run all of the togather! (but this would delay you 2-3 months and 4-5 for the companies to start producing phones) also there would be LTE support in this one and way better gpu

A17 is suppose to bring huge performance gains compared to humble A7's so compared to the 8 core Alcatel/TCL it should be way better but you know, around the corner a new opportunity would come around and if you wait for 4-5 months snapdragon 805 might pop around or something even better :p

P.S. If the Alcatel has a microsd slot and we can get some rom updates it would be great (it would be shame to see android 4.5-5 or even 6 and you'd be stuck on 4.2)

[General Questions and Answers] evronetwork:
AVOID aliexpress if you can, I'm preparing a video about aliexpress and dhl. I've bought 10 power supplies from aliexpress and the seller send the with dhl. I've hear(after they create me an issue with customs) that dhl in Greece does a fraud thing from time to time. The "create" a custom problem then ask you to pay them 100€ to solve you this(and pay extra the customs) to get the 100€

Indeed dhl ask me to give the 100 euros or go to customs myself(420km away from me) for an item that cost me ~50Euros I've cancel the order and expected to get at least some amount of the money back, aliexpress (dandan a guy work in aliexpress) favour the seller and I didn't get anything back and got no parcel!

P.S. The irony? I tried to process the customs thing and dhl told me that Greek customs need the declaration of conformity that the power supplies are safe to use in Europe but the seller(aliexpress) didn't have a proper one, so I couldn't even get the items even if I wanted to. Also DHL told me to provide proof of how much money I've paid to the seller(with seperate shipping costs) ..they actually asked me the paypal transaction and some proof of what involves the shipping fee and what the items (which is not possible first because this wasn't a transaction with paypal and secondly WHERE the heck did they see that?)

Anyway I'm preparing a video against aliexpress(and I inform them about it) ..just waiting to finish all my transactions so I won't have any issue(just to be safe). Also I'll do a video agains Greek DHL, only in Greece DHL is trying to SCR... things up. I've confirm that with other Greek guys who tried to buy rc planes(and didn't have any issue with post office for example)

So to recap AVOID aliexpress ..if anything goes wrong they won't protect you, they need TONS of proof and very solid else you'll loose your money and get nothing.

[General Questions and Answers] evronetwork:
I thought they were good although I've seen some people moaning about it. I didn't pay attention as I've seen a huge list of products but when I encounter a problem, the aliexpress representative asked me WAY too much proof to support my dispute and if they don't like your proof or you don't have - you pay full price while getting a big nothing - Seller is secure

On the other hand, with paypal you pay a bit more(when you paying with $ for example and you have Euros ..exchange rates are a bit pricy) but when a buyer has a problem paypal DOES research and tries to find where is the problem with the seller. They don't need YOU to provide evidence or anything else.

I've no idea, you just got your phone mate.. play it a little bit then try to put recovery(don't brick it 2nd day :p)

Chinese users are wondering how serious will be the MIUI team support to Nubia Z5S, considering Xiaomi Mi3 is its main challenger.

how is battery life?

how much screen time do you get at maximum with brightness on lowest?

can you replace battery?

the only things i dont know why to take nubia z5s or z5s mini is

reasone to take z5s mini has micro sd card whitch is great + its cheaper + snapdragon 600 is fast enought to run anything that's in the playstore (am i wrong about this?)

reasone to take z5s regular is = better screen with less battery draining + bigger battery + faster cpu but higher price but sd card only 16gb whitch is more expensive

whats really importent is to know how is battery life ... thanks! if you can post a screenshoot or write down how much time it holds

What is the newest International ROM for the Nubia Z5S?

Where can i get it?
[General Questions and Answers] mirceat:
The last stock ROM you can get through OTA upgrade is V1.22, located at http://www.nubia.cn/article/57.html#con.

Besides this, there are custom ROM's made from so-called official V1.25 and V1.30.

MIUI has published a beta ROM, still looks buggy after some improvements. LeWa and others have their versions as well.

ZTE might not offer much further official software support for Nubia Z5S, therefore we should rely to third-party ROMs anyway.

Better wait until MUI will publish the first stable ROM. OTA upgrade will be available in this case, I guess.
