Does it work? (modem)

I have a problem - mobile internet works only when I select "2G only" mode in Settings.

If I choose any other mode, I see 3G, H and H+ icons, but it can't download any data (shows up-arrow and no down-arrow).

I tried almost every ROM: CM12.1v5, CM12.1v6, CM12.1v7, MiFavor 3.2.6, MIUI 5.10.23, Stock B01,

also tried various APN setings and /etc/ppp/ tweaks.

3G still doesn't work.:(

Is it a problem with modem?

Can anybody help me with this?
[Device Reviews and Information] alexeei:
Modem from oneplusone does not work and i have bootloop when installed it...and then many troubles with missed all sensors, beside the mic, but i succesfull restore it. But then i try modem from android 5.0 clear version released at beginning of 2015,and for my opinion it works much better then default modem in cm12.1. I test it some more and if it's ok i upload it for public testing.
[Device Reviews and Information] krispin:
I am looking forward testing it. :)
[Device Reviews and Information] alexeei:
Modem from Android 5.0 flash from recovery, no wipes. For safety can make imei backup.

Add, tests show that this modem give better working of data transfer and for some users better quality of signal, so i recommend try it if you have issues on cm12.1/mf3.2.x

Question for owners - is this phone good? Are there any major flaws in this phone? Specification looks very good (esp. 1920x1080 full hd, good processor 2GB ram etc).

It seems that there are few custom roms and it can be root, so it's worth to buy this phone?
[Device Reviews and Information] martas.vavra:
I think, that you can buy better phones for that price, the built quality of ZTE is bad. Now I have Doogee F5 and I'm more happy with it.

Odesláno z mého F5 pomocí Tapatalk
[Device Reviews and Information] lukecz81:
I believe that Doogee F5 could be a better phone, but it's more expensive.

ZTE S291 current lowest price is 88$ which is almost 2x cheaper than F5

I think I'll buy ZTE if there aren't any important major flaws
[Device Reviews and Information] jamaika2:
Until now what was the best rom for s291?
[Device Reviews and Information] mc.god:
Hi guys, I'm back after several months, I managed to replace my broken screen and now the S291 is operating again as my secondary phone.

Looking for the new firmwares, i tried the latest CM 12.1 B07, it works well except for the network location (here again with this old issue that i managed to fix on the early B15 4.3 rom's, ahaha, sweet memories :) ), but it has no FM Radio. So I tried the latest MFUI (3.2.6) and surprisingly, no traces of FM Radio D: Since, as a secondary phone, it's one of the features I'm using more in the ZTE, I went back to the last Alexeei 3.1.10 rom, great performing and satisfying as always. Do someone knows why they removed it even on the official MFUI? No chance seeing it again on any new rom?

See you guys.
[Device Reviews and Information] hojjat 1364:
You can use spirit2 app for radio
[Device Reviews and Information] jamaika2:
Hello my friend.its possible to make a rom 3.2.6 with networklocation fix?
[Device Reviews and Information] mc.god:
Didn't know it, interesting, but well, it's kinda expensive for an android app, I think I'll stick to Alexeei rom, it's my secondary phone on wich i don't even have a mobile data plan, I don't really care much if it runs KitKat or Lollipop.

Sorry man, I managed to fix it on JellyBean 4.3 with some effort and various reading, I'm not so skilled and Google changes many things on every new version, I tried it with early KitKat MFUI (that had the same issue) and couldn't get the job done. I suppose Lollipop is still much more different, and I don't have the knowledge and the time to study it (moreover, as said, i don't have a mobile data plan on the ZTE, so I don't need network location at all at the moment).
[Device Reviews and Information] jamaika2:
Alexei so far the best rom.
[Device Reviews and Information] duckslivelong:
Damm, it's been well over 1 year with the phone. So far it has held up against a lot of stuff

Dropped it in water and it fully dried.

The phone short circuited itself

And bricked it a couple times

and it still works :)

So far it's pretty solid. Mabye in the next year or so I'm just going to go with the Oneplus three or another chinese phone that impresses me with good warranty and specs.

Also read that ZTE phone now aren't made with the best quality and to avoid them.
[Device Reviews and Information] Ziksel:
Any news about 6.0 ?)
[Device Reviews and Information] Weresk0909:
So far there is no news. 5.1 and GPS does not work ...
[Device Reviews and Information] duckslivelong:
You sure? I'm using Cyanogenmod 5.1 and it works fine only on WIFI.
[Device Reviews and Information] Weresk0909:
Yes, but the satellites catches bad. 4.3 is much better
[Device Reviews and Information] duckslivelong:
Yea, it's unfortunate. I think I'm going to be switching to Xiaomi or Oneplus in the future due to better build quality and warranty.
[Device Reviews and Information] Weresk0909:
It is better to Xiaomi. On ZTE I put b16 tk is the main branch, which is supported by zte
[Device Reviews and Information] Ziksel:
Replace gps.conf (system/etc) from android 4.3 and it will work much better.

after one and half year of using my zte i am moving to LeTv Pro (Snapragon 810 version-240€). After all the phone itself wasnt bad , this summer my battery were dead. Thats not very good but a replacement cost only 8€ , so no problem. The build quality , hardware , etc. were fine on this phone. Only the software , i hoped the developers will stick with this phone and update the roms to be perfect but dont. I will use my zte as an second and spare phone. For that price it was a deal braker. Had a good time here guys and a special thanks go to 5KKKKK , you always kept us updated a Big Thank you.

Hello guys, a friend of mine recently bought a Grand S2 and after a while he downloaded an apk that managed to ruin the phone completely with pop ups, ads and other s**t. I did a reset and wipe data from recovery but it seems that apk managed to write on the firmware and while everything seems "factory" the problems continues and there are allready installed apps that seems not ok. I asked from the site he bought the phone to give me a link for the firmware, they did, i tried to add the zip in the sd, entered the recovery menu and when i asked to apply the update from sd, i chose the zip and i get the message

--Install /Sdcard...

Opening update package...

Veryfying update package...

Instalation aborted

How can i pass this error? my version is the B15

Thanks in advance
[Device Reviews and Information] 5KKKKK:
Which firmware version do you want to install and what's your current recovery
[Device Reviews and Information] Astale:
I want to install the B15. The exact B15 that the phone allready has (Current fw ZTE_S291_Grand_S_II_LTEV1.0.0B15_Lang_ML2) it's a multilingual because he is using Greek menu. But the current firmware recovery (if i understood your question) is changed by the malware.
[Device Reviews and Information] 5KKKKK:
Just unzip the firmware file, if it's from official site, there is another zip file in it. Then install that zip file
[Device Reviews and Information] Astale:
There is no zip in the zip. There are 2 exe and some other files. But I'm not in front of the pc right now to write you exactly the filenames. I will inform you as soon as i get there.
[Device Reviews and Information] Astale:
So in the zip there are 2 exe (adb and fastboot)

2 dll's (adbwinapi & adbwinusbapi)

4 img (boot, persist,splash and system

and final the ZTE_S291_Grand_S_II_LTE¦·-¦-ό.cmd
[Device Reviews and Information] 5KKKKK:
So it's not official software, go here to down the file named update(not not not the other one), then install it

Yes i can add language, i want try makd updated build if i can. Unmodified sources compiled well, but prevoius time when i sync it with latest CM sources it give many errors, and when i fix it (may be not right) i compile it, but it stuck on the zte logo (for all screens, we test it at our russian forum),so if i can update sources without getting stuck at zte logo it will be good, if not it will be bad an no updated firmwares... About cm13-if i can't compile normally updated 12.1 i don't think it's good idea try to make 13...
