No this is for my friend phone he don't have recovery fully stock so no nandroid backup

[HTC Sensation] heavy_metal_man:
I think your pretty much stuck then pal. Unless you have adb access. I think ice cream sandwich enabled application backups via adb. Lastly if the owner was using stock Google settings their contacts may be set to back up to Google server. Sign into Google on the PC and then select android phone i think, and then contacts :)

[HTC Tornado] 3waygeek:
On a call-by-call basis, prefixing the phone # with #31# should supress caller ID.

For a more permanent solution, go into Start/Settings/Phone and click on the Services tab. Select "Caller ID" and tap the "Get Settings" button.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] strange world:
My phone is currently on the stock 4.1 ROM, rooted (unlocked, S-OFF). I've tried both TWRP 2.7.1.0 (both via Fastboot and via GooManager) and CWM 6.0.4.8, and neither detect my ROM and neither can flash any other ROMs (Viper, Cyanogenmod, MIUI...)

The error I get during install on both TWRP and CWM is as follows:

"assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "supersonic" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "supersonic"

E: Error in /(rom location here)

(Status 7)

Installation aborted.

The "supersonic" readout makes me think that for whatever reason, my recovery is incorrectly identifying my device as something else... Every time I try to recover my stock ROM via backup on TWRP, it restores it however when I try to reboot it thinks there is no OS on the phone, and wants to install SuperSU (thinks the phone is unrooted).

Also, on a side note - My phone is not detected by either Windows or Mac (various machines). The only machine that can access my phone storage is my Linux PC at work.

This is incredibly frustrating and I'd really like to avoid buying a new phone if possible... If anyone can help me with this I would GREATLY appreciate it.

EDIT: Also, even when I format ALL partitions on the internal SD (Dalvik, Cache, Factory Reset, etc) the phone actually still boots to a stock install of the stock ROM (wants to run the "first time setup" again). This is making me think that both TWRP and CWM are also not correctly formatting my phone as it should.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
The ROM you are trying to flash to your device is for the old EVO 4G, not the EVO 4G LTE.

It's a good thing that assert line was in there; it kept you from jacking up your device ;).

Get a ROM for this device from the correct forum and it should work fine.

Depending on what ROM you want to flash, you might also need an alternate version of TWRP. CWM for this device isn't recommended.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] strange world:
Thanks, but I get the same error on Viper 4.0 and Cyanogenmod as well. On both TWRP and CWM.

Also, even though on the MIUI website it lists this ROM under just "EVO 4G", the image they're using is for the LTE... I can't imagine them making a 4.0 ROM for an Evo 4G, I'm pretty sure they just mis-labeled the category.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Viper 4.0 is built for the updated partition layout. You'd still have to use a different TWRP.

CM has updates that require a different TWRP version.

There is no official MIUI build for the EVO LTE. It probably IS for the Supersonic.

Again, stay away from CWM. It's possible your misc partition got hosed depending on how long you've been using it.

So what exactly is your goal at this point? I'd recommend flashing the 3.17 stock rooted ROM, or running the 3.17 RUU (if you want to stay on 4.1 & the old layout), or running the 4.3 RUU which will let you run Viper 4.0.

EDIT: The RUU route is probably the best way to go. It should clean up any issues your device may currently have. Though if your misc partition is corrupted, you'll need to fix that first. There's information on that in the old CWM thread.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] strange world:
Thank you; I'll flash my recovery back to TWRP 2.7.1.0. Would I be able to install the RUU 4.3 update however through Windows since my phone is still unable to be read by the machine? I'm not sure if it's a driver issue; I've tried installing/reinstalling HTC Sync.

I'll try flashing the 2.7.1.0B TWRP.

Edit: Using a different Windows PC (at work) I was able to connect my phone. I ran the RUU 4.3 update which (reported) flashing correctly. I'm now going to poke around my phone and see where that left me.

Edit2: I'm on 4.13 now :) Feels much better than the old version... Thank you for your help. Now I need to decide if Just want to count my blessings and stay on this ROM or try out something else.

[Android General] Chinaphonearena:
You mean it plays perfect for 1 second and then begins stuttering, and does not stop stuttering?

When does it happen? Is it every sound it makes? Only music..? Only when a call comes through? What app exactly?

So far mine has been more or less perfect.

Messed up with my phone

Hi,

I have messed up with my new DG550. I installed xposed framework and it went to the boot loop. I then tried to boot it in stock recovery and found that it is in chinese language so I I then installed CWM recovery in order to install xposed-disable zip file. But after installing I found that it still is in the boot loop and now I cannot even boot in recovery. Please help.
[Android General] badboybackagain:
Somebody please help
[Android General] Chinaphonearena:
If you booted and it was China language, most likely you held the Vol button the wrong way. That is factory mode. Have you tried to hold Vol the other way?

Xposed

Anyone sucessfully installed Xposed framework?
[Android General] exetico:
Boot loop

After recieved the phone, i forgot all about read about other user experience, before installing Xposed, so now i'm in bootloop.

I will give an update, if i fix it somehow. Woops!

[MENTION=2407351]badboybackagain[/MENTION] - Any news?:)

Update:

So the thing is:

Booting with VOL DOWN + POWER gives you the chinese menu like below (I have added basic translation)

(Woops i'm a new member, so you need to work by you own) i.imgur.com/r2xly2t.png ... but i added the image as well.

If you're booting the device with VOL UP + POWER, i will give you a recovery mostly like CWM - or just most important, in english. I just wiped alle data, and the phone was good to go again.

Now i'm just exited to hear about any other people, there may have some luck with Xposed framework... Or maybe we just have to wait until early August, and try on 4.4 :)
[Android General] maddogcz:

A shame. I really hope, that new Kitkat OS will be compatible with Xposed, because gravitybox tweaks are just golden...

I also tried to install Xposed Installer and then the framework, but got stock on the DOOGEE logo animation after rebooting. I had to flash Xposed-Disabler-Recovery.zip.

Sorry for my ignorance… How can I install the recovery?

I have Mobileuncle MTK Tools installed from Play Store. Can I use it for this purpose?

My DG550 is already rooted.
[Android General] maddogcz:
Yes, copy 'recovery.IMG' file to your phone, start MobileUncle tools, select 'Update recovery' option (it should scan you phone for the IMG file) and confirm, everything should run smoothly.

Although I would recommend TWRP recovery instead of CWM, seems much better to me. You can find it on needrom dot com, search for 'dg550' (XDA won't tel me post link since I'm new here)
[Android General] karfire1982:
Everything working fine.. But Faulty of the phone is during the call I couldn't wakeup the screen to cut the call.

DG550 + KitKat + Xposed + Gravitybox

Hey guys.

So I just installed official KitKat ROM through unofficial way (from needrom using SP flashtool).

Good news is that Xposed framework works perfectly, Gravity box works (e.g. using volume buttons for cursonr movement or for skip song when screen is off, hold home button on lockscreen to enable flashlight works; battery indicator change, brightnes change via notification bar slide does not).

Bad news is that rooting via Framaroot does not work. I excluded flashing recovery partition in SP flash tool so it left my TWRP alone; and then rooted the phone with flashing SuperSU. So it's just heads up. Maybe OTA won't mess up the recovery, so this warning is just in case...

Cheers
[Android General] MRabbit:
Thanks mate! It did work nicely. :good:

I installed CWM since I had this in some of my previous phones.
[Android General] golagha11:
Hello

Did you also receive the warning regarding "known issue("Aliyun OS").......... when installing the framework?

Did you change the installation mode when installing the framework?

because I couldn't boot after installing the framework, and would like to know how you managed to install that.

Thanks
[Android General] maddogcz:
Well no, I am not aware of that, I installed it as usual just after installing and rooting new KitKat OS, and it worked. No special settings whatsoever
[Android General] golagha11:
Thanks for the replay. But where did you get the KitKat OS for this device from? Could you please share that with us?

I got it from needrom http://www.needrom.com/download/doogee-dg550-kk/

But Doogee already announced the same thing on FB page and added link to google cloud https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B-eEVUUoOlT4SjlZTG5JVlRJS0U/edit

This Greek dude also made a tutorial especially for DG550 how to flash it (you need SP flashtool and some MTK windows drivers). Alas OTA update is not gonna be very soon or so it seems so far (not sure if it is even possible)

ghost touch

Hello!

I see this is an old thread, without any activity for a long time, but I will try my luck anyway....

A friend of mine bought this phone a while back, and it has a strange problem. We call it "ghost touch". It looks like if someone would press the screen at the same place randomly. In his case it is the place on the screen where the "L" key is when the keyboard is visible. He recorded it: https://youtu.be/I1lPtdAQBJw

I have found other people around the internet, suffering from the same (even one where this "ghost touch" happens randomly on the screen, not on the same point).

But unfortunately I couldn't find any solution at all... My friend already sent it back 2 times for repair, they always sent it back with the problem still existing (once they did a factory reset, and once they upgraded the firmware to 4.4.2. )

Does any of you have this problem? Is there a solution for it ?

Thanks in advance!

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gnivol:
Hi guys,

I got my nexus 5 a while ago and notice theres a bulge on the back cover right under the camera, i emailed google and got a replacement but it has the same bulge.

Will it cause any issue? The bulge is on top of the vibration motor.

I googled it and found some others having the same issue but nothing else about it.

Attaching the picture of it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
since you googled about it and found others but nothing else about it.. tell me, is it really an "issue"? i did check mine regardless, and dont have a bulge.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Henrock11:
Isn't there a clip there? Push down on it and it might click into place. Maybe it just wasn't installed correctly from factory.

Not on my n5
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gnivol:
hmm... so its a rare case... and i have 2 of them... :(

I too think its a plastic defect, when i shine it on the light, it looks like a patch on the cover.

but its right on top of the vibration motor, so i wonder if anyone know will that cause an issue or not

edit: lol.. just did some test, the vibration motor is loose.... another RMA..
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 19dragon98:
How have you fixed it? Thx
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gamer.11:
open up the case and check if the lock is properly locked in, there is a lock on the place you mentioned, I've had the issue and i opened up and found it was not closed properly (ironically by the service center guys) and i closed it back on. Check if the vibrator works all the time or only when you press down on the bulge(if it does it's not a huge issue).

Guys don't waste time RMA'ing, just a simple fixable problem which anyone can do if you want to know more about your device and it is a bit of a learning also.

I just installed yesterday Optimus G3 rom alongside Dorimanx. Set it up the way i want (removed apps, tweaked the kernel) and i was still not happy. The rom was lagging in animations and all and this without the launcher, test apps, weather, quick+ memo, etc etc.

What made a real difference was removing these:

delete("/system/app/LGLIA.apk");
delete("/system/app/LGLIA.odex");
delete("/system/app/LIAInformant.apk");
delete("/system/app/LIAInformant.odex");
delete("/system/app/LIAMrGDBLogger.apk");
delete("/system/app/LIAMrGDBLogger.odex");
delete("/system/app/LIAS4URecommender.apk");
delete("/system/app/LIAS4URecommender.odex");

Since i had no idea what these are (they are from G3 rom) i didn't wanted to delete them - god knows what they are used for - but thank you Franklin for this thread. I removed them and now the rom is snappy as a G2 rom (Cloudyflex, Cloudystock, bruce, Pardus - you name it).

Thank you!
[G2 Android Development] fr4nk1yn:
Aroma makes my head hurt. I admit that would be the best solution, I can't figure out if it would delete instead of install and we'd have to remove two separate files for each app being removed. There's that headache!

LG Intelligent Agent seems to be some debugging logger. Glad it helped.

What I am curious is - why you say Optimus is more bloated than the other one made by Cloudyfa? Just curious because everyone seems to go after Optimus g3...

It's not complainers. I learned awhile ago the LG system can be fickle. Files that shouldn't affect something else sometimes do, and files that should work don't.
