I've got this phone landvo l800 top phone for money , but found GPS picks lock up quick but jumps around when using sat nav at speed so GPS is a bit pants , I've changed expo and done the mtk GPS fix but still a bit jumpy

I've just ordered one white today + a second battery ( 3.79$ ) from coolicool.com and I just can't wait for it to arrive.

What's the material of his back? Silicon? Leather?

Thx!
[General Questions and Answers] blaster99999:
The back cover is hard plastic , it as a pattern of stitching but its just for show , mine came with a clear silicon case too , also a screen protector fitted to the phone and a spare in the box, what will impress you is the side walls and top and bottom as its all steel and.looks like brushed chrome and it does make the phone look nice , I bought mine from pandawill and cosy me £49 it came all setup with play store and just put my 2 sims in and off I went all working , the only slight let down for me is GPS when using in car my location jumps about a bit , have ordered a Bluetooth GPS reciever to see of that fixs the problem. Found the xpose installer and gravity box very usefull , this phone doesn't have a notification led but using gravity box you can get round this and use the back lite lamps to show notifications and it works spot on.

Ok, I will try to explain as good as possible what you need to do to repartition the internal storage.

I got this info from this forum:

http://www.chinaphonearena.com/foru...d-change-your-partitions-for-MTK6589T-MTK6582

There's a tutorial on how you can repartition the internal storage.

I've used the attached EBR files for flashing. If you want to use them, remove the .rar extension from the files.

I've modified the files to have 2 GB of internal storage available to apps.

Just be really sure that you've got a backup of your phone before starting this procedure!

If you have any questions, I will try to answer them here.

REPARTITION phone landvo

Ok Thanks ;but not simple, this method requires the full réisntallation phone? - What are the parameters to change our LANDVO please?

thank you very well, for the files friends, but how to use them you can guide us through a tutorial?

just install the new EBR with SP Flash Tool and Then factory reset the phone?

Reset phone and reinstall everything then?

regards
[General Questions and Answers] Cryonic90:
If you create a backup with CWM, you can restore that after you did the factory reset.

So that means you're not losing any data.

But that also means you have to flash CWM first before you can create a backup.

I've put the recovery somewhere in this thread also ;)

REPARTITION phone landvo

Hi good I made a backup of my original rom on pc with mtkdroid now how to change the EBR files, should I change in the rom?

how to load by sp flash tools the ebr files?

should I change the backup of Backup.zip with the EBR FILES and then copy the new Backup.zip on the phone and then reboot into recovery and install the ZIP ?

I do not understand how to install the files EBR sorry for my english I'm french

sorry me if I repeated but I do not want to make a mistake ; I says I did the backup of my rom with MTK droid tools

thank you in advance friends
[General Questions and Answers] Cryonic90:
The easiest is to flash CWM to your phone and create a backup with CWM as well.

After that you can use SP flash tool to flash the EBR files (only select the EBR files, if you click on it, you can choose the EBR files I provided).

Then you need to pull the battery, start the flash tool by pressing "download". And then insert the battery to your phone.

After you did that, a MTK preloader should be installed (driver needed for this, see attachment).

After that, the download to the phone will start.

If you did all this, you should do a factory wipe in CWM. Reboot the phone (will take a while).

Then you can reboot into CWM again and restore your backup.

If all steps went OK, you should have 2 GB of internal storage available :)

Hi guys,

I've just obtained my Landvo L800 - first look - nice phone for such money. But I have (it looks, not just me) problem with GPS. The first is the fixing time, about 5-10 minutes then it found only 2-3 satelites, in this case navigation is totally unuseful because accuracy is more tken 50-60 meter - track jumps totally. Have somene any idea how to fix it (if its possible at all) ?

Hy! Mine came too on 05 May, and I`m impressed. Design is nice, polished, white and clean (except the layout around the display). But I have 2 problems, and I wanna now if someone installed a new rom version and if he fixed that problems:

1. Auto-brightness doesn't work, and light sensor don't respond in any sensor application or MTK Engineering Tools

2. After a few days the phone started to have latency from time to time, even in contacts or call menu, not to mention in games, and I think that his internal storage has a bad read/write rate...

Hi Cristy

I've seen you post over on Needrom.com about the rom that's up on the site - like you, I'm unable to flash the thing :confused:

I've tried everything and read every tutorial going but no luck so far. In fact, I couldn't even get the recovery posted on this thread to flash either so something is wrong, somewhere.

Don't know if we'll get any help from anyone either but I live in hope :D

I love the phone though but was hoping to use that rom because it addresses the power usage issues.

I installed the Xposed framework, Android Tuner and Gravity Box myself so really should read the tutorials - chances are I've already got enough kit to sort the problems myself :cool:

They might not know there's a problem and I think it's rather unfair of you to accuse them of ripping you off, without basis.

That custom ROM Pol_Landvo_L800_V9 it's a crappy one , in my opinion, all the good thing about it is that Samsung layout and TouchWiz interface... After 2-3 days it runs like hell and it freezes all the time...

If you reffer to that official ROM, there aren't any differences from that on your phone... That official ROM is for flashing phone in case of something is bricking and stuff like this.. BUT if you really wanna be up to date, follow this tutorial, and where you have problems, contact me on email.

[General Questions and Answers] Blandroid:
Hi Cristy - thanks for replying :)

I've noted what you said about that custom rom and don't think I'll bother flashing it :D

TBH, the only 'issue' for me is power usage and like I said, I've got Xposed now so I'm sure there's several modules that can address that - I just need to learn how to use them! :cool:

I'll certainly have a look at your link and hopefully find the solutions I need.

Kind of you to share :good:

Agree about Coolicool....seems a bit 'off' to me to come on a public forum and start denouncing them as being dishonest without establishing some basic facts first.
