Hi, my galaxy s4 than yesterday shows me the message that the sim card was disconnected and I have to restart the device to connect sim again. This puts me quite often (about once every three hours) but slowly doing more and more often until now arrived to do every 5 minutes. Do so even when I closed. What can I do;

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spamtrash:
I doubt if you'll be given the new phone. If I'd be you, I'd ask for repair.... why? Because 80% of the phones sent as replacement is refurbished and may have the other, hidden issues.

P9 and roaming

Hi SAS007, I just got my P9 today and I can't make any calls at all. I am with T-Mobile, put my sim in, switched on and all the T-Mobile settings came up Access Point Name, etc. I also get an 'r' on the signal indicator which I believe means roaming. Every time I try to make a call, I get a message saying that roaming isn't enabled. Have you had any similar issues? If so, how did you manage to get around them?

Many thanks.

[Android General] sas007:
Hi mate.dont worry about the roaming thing.I noticed this on my device also.

when i went to make my first call i got the message that i was roaming etc..just okay it and use as normal the roaming R icon dissipated after a while.If your in the UK you can not have any problems roaming makes no difference...

Also in your data/network settings in the part for preferred networks select automatically choose/select network.

Great phone affordable price

Hi. I got mine from ebay and cost me about £70. I must say I didn't expected that but it is a great phone and still can not believe its price. I have no problems so far. It accepted my two sim cards straight away, my main one being on the Three UK network. The internet is much more faster than my previous Xperia Arc S. The battery life is great too. All day making calls and browsing the internet playing games etc. and still have got some left by the evening when I get home. This phone is a big joy and very affordable for students on a budget.

Have you guys tried flashing Android 4.4 KitKat stock ROM on the Cubot P9? I suspect that would increase battery life with 20% to 25%. If yes let me know please I would appreciate that.

Cheers

preloader.bin

Hello,

Could a kind soul dump and upload his cubot P9 preloader.bin ?

Tried the doogee ROM, screen was weird / all messed up so I reinstalled the stock rom at the top of this thread. The phone is half bricked now: phone starts only to show a blinking screen, in recovery or normal mode. SP Flash Tool is still working though.

I read that erasing the preloader on a MTK6572W can be messy, on some devices there appears to be some fixes. (Xolo A500s for example, see here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=46735224)

I hope there's a solution for the P9 as well..

Thanks in advance!

some updates

managed to flash a custom recovery (rua1 autoCWM v5.5.0.4 for CUBOT P9)

Thing is it acts weird: whole lines are shaking, when I go up / down it goes directly from 1st line to the 3rd etc

I guess the LCD driver on my P9 is different (brand new P9, sticker inside says its from march 2014).

I would gladly appreciate it if someone could upload a full ROM dump of a similar P9.

Hello everyone.

Today I recieved this phone, and it looks that it has a newer ROM than the comented in this post. Here is the "Phone information" screen:

I have make the backup rom to install with Fashtool, using MTKdroidTools. I think it's correctly made, but it's my first time and I'm not very sure.

The rom is rooted and has some other root tools, like Mobileuncle MTK Tools, RomManager and Root Explorer.

Hi

First of all thanks for all the wonderful input. I have had this phone for a while now, since December. I found it to be a great phone hands down. Recently however I have been having problems with my phone network. I have only one problem and please beleive me when I said that I googled a lot about this to no avail even cubot will not answer my emails.

Problem

If I call someone who is on my same network the phone vibrates when they answer but dial tone keeps going as if nobody answered. I know they have answered only because it vibrates. The person who answers the phone can hear me but I cannot hear them.

Analysis of the Problem

I know it is not the sim card cause I bought the same phone for my partner and she has the same problem.

I know it is not an application on the phone because I restored it to factory settings and it still happens after a while

I asked my mobile phone provider to reset the connection and the problem returned again after a while

Friends and family members who bought the mobile phone after us seem to not have the same problem but they have not had the phone for long enough and I did not have this problem to begin with.

Please help is there anyone who has the same problem? Anyone who resolved it?

Thanks again.

Music Player Issues

Is anyone else having issues with songs overlapping each other? This is happening all the time. While listening to one song, another will randomly cut in causing the first one to stop playing. Then a few seconds later (sometimes even after playing the entire second song) it will go back to the original. I've tried downloading other media players, but this doesn't fix the issue. I've tried rebooting the phone, removing the battery, playing from device vs memory card...same thing. Sometimes the player will even freeze until I stop the process and restart. VERY frustrated. Any help will be greatly appreciated!!

Hello,

Nice to chat with other users of this phone.

I have some issues with my device :

-Sometimes white screen appears .twist than the top and bottom and is recovering.

has happened to anyone? if yes, what is the solution?

I installed IGO , and i belive the sensor GPS is to slow becouse never finds satellites.

You know another offline gps soft ?

Generally looks ok, and at a fair price.

[Android General] craigc21:
Hi everyone, I was advised to ask here for assistance with my cubot s208 because there isn't an official thread about it.

As advanced, I have a problem with a new cubot s208: sometimes, randomly, my screen starts flickering for some seconds, and then it goes completely black. But the strange thing is that if I lock the screen when the screen is black, when I unlock it isn't black yet and it doesn't flicker. Unfortunately, flickering will re-start after some seconds.

This strange fenomenom doesn't happen very frequently: as I reboot the device, the problem will vanish for some days.

Googling I found some tutorials that suggest disabling hw overlays, but this didn't work with my smartphone.

I need some help, can someone solve this problem? At least, I would like to know if it is an hw or sw problem, cause in the first case I will try to sell it back under warranty.

screen takes time to come back to life

Hi

I have just bought a Cubot P9. No problems but today the screen takes longer to come back to life after being in power saving mode. Yesterday when I pushed the button on the side it came on instantly, but today it is taking a good 5 seconds. Is it normal or shall I get it replaced ?

GPS Performance

Our Cubot P9 is rooted and has working GPS (including EPO updates). The performance, while reliably acquiring signal lock, is still rather poor - even in favourable conditions. :crying:

We wonder if a hardware alteration would help e.g. extra antenna wire or the like. First problem is that we can't seem to identify the hardware itself. Besides this, does anyone have suggestions as to how to go about augmenting it?

:confused:

Thanks.
[Android General] xanda-escuyer:
Cyanogenmod, Replicant et al

Has anyone managed to get Cyanogenmod, Replicant or indeed any other firmware to run on this device?

If so, how have you found its performance, especially wrt GPS.

We are running stock but the performance is truly appalling. Although GPS/navigation works (have rooted and used MTK tools etc) it is very slow on the move and frequently loses bearing despite having multiple satellite lock; plus it frequently kills apps such as skype, Viber, Adblock Plus etc.

when the data traffic peaks.

Given that the same chipset is used in other branded devices such as Alcatel, Lenovo & Huawei, it seems less than likely that the hardware is at fault and unfortunately, Cubot aren't being much help.
[Android General] xanda-escuyer:

flashing issue

Hi everyone

I have a cubot p9 bought second hand and seems to have a rom loaded not easily available when looking at roms online. This particular one had some malware embedded in the main system so wanted to re-flash with stock image in case there are still some residual elements left.

I have a rom and have tested the connection with adb and the device is seen, the issue i have using the flash tool

v3 suggests the scatter files are invalid.

v5 will not download any data to the device.

I have tinkered with a usb driver (volvom i think) which shows as not working in win 10 dev manager.

Just confusion as mentioned adb can see the device ....

Any ideas please ? using win 10 machine
