the steps in red is where i read about wiping.. so i skip the wiping steps and follow the steps till no5? and i select on the bat file the option to root the phone?
[General Questions and Answers] navin_n:
Sure!!...but currently I don't have V5 with me...so I can make but I can't test... :(:(:(:(

Just checked the update file, seems it's just patch for the previous ROM so may be I will just include these files in my previous ROM. :)
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
but it is if you install new firmware..

:-/
[General Questions and Answers] navin_n:
Just for "ROOT" only, you can Skip all the wiping step and directly install CWM/TWRP through bat file (you can use DallasCZ's file or my file which is in my google drive) and then just flash SuperSU.Pro.v1.97.zip file from custom recovery... no need to do any wipe at all.... For SuperSU.Pro.v1.97.zip file, you can get it from my google drive.

new ui on 1.15
[General Questions and Answers] nunytes:
I can't install it (at least with twrp), I don't know why..
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
its your first update? OMFG.... stock update you can apply only on stock rom frim stock recovery (unless you modify updater script)... plrase read the forum...
[General Questions and Answers] nunytes:
Normally I install stock ROM updates with custom recovery! It gives me an error with something like email odex when is checking the system to update
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
so try it with stock recovery
[General Questions and Answers] nunytes:
I will. In last instance I wipe data and try again and restore after completed..

1.15 update

I also can't update to 1.15. I tried with TWRP and stock recovery. Everytime with no succes.

http://zapodaj.net/1f8b1e2722574.jpg.html
[General Questions and Answers] navin_n:
It's because it couldn't verify the email app... may be you have deleted it... you can do factory restore or reflash the stock 1.13 and try it..... it should work... :)
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
you really...really on stock untouched 1.13 firmware? Its important because this update is not the whole system firmware, but only incremental patch, so it verifies the system files which the update will patch and when there are some diferencies, the patch update will stop (error 7).

I backed up my firmware, flashed stock recxovery, wiped data, flashed stock!!! 1.13 firmware and right from recovery flashed 1.15 update, then rebooted and everything was allright.
[General Questions and Answers] KallaiR:
thanks to a combination of dallascz's bat file and navin_n's supersu.zip, i managed to install root on my phone! thank u both!!

now i have a minor problem.. when i go to check for update, it gives me error "unfortunately, software update has stopped". how can i fix it? any idea?

plus, in the ##36 menu, on the "other setting" what is the value that i should have in the "next check time" ?

edit. i think that u should update ur guides so there is a root only guide. many would find it useful. the steps i followed were:

1. installed proper drivers

2. enabled debugging options and unknown sources

3. ran dallascz bat file and installed custom recovery

4. from the custom recovery, i installed navin's superSU.zip

5. from dallascz bat file, i reinstalled stock recovery.

no wipes at all.
[General Questions and Answers] wwenigma:
Tried 1.15 update from your google drive, same what i downloaded from ZTEHN BBS. Maybe for U9180?

Now i try to reinstall 1.13 then apply that update.
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
in updater script there is x9180 AND check if this is U,V or N 9180 version,so it should be for all variants.

I think that the updater script chceks for current apps and if you uninstalled some, the script will not continue.
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
in 1.15 they changed (switched) the call ansver decline... so now when you want to answer a call you have to swipe down, not up! it took me three call to manage that... :)

good change! my fingers arent that big so the swype down action to answer is very welcomed! :P
[General Questions and Answers] navin_n:
Need to have untouched stock V1.13 to install the update V1.15 otherwise it gives error... :)
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
THAT IS WHAT I SAYING FROM YESTERDAY..SOME PEOPLE ARE LAZY TO READ.. :-/ IT IS BECAUSE IT COMPARES THE FILES AND PATCHES THEM... PERSONALY I DONK NOW WHY TO DO THIS WAY...SURE IS BETTER TO ota 122 mb IMAGE THAN THE WHOLE SYSTEM, BUT I THINK WHEN THEY PATCH ALMOST EVERY SYSTEM APP IS BETTER TO RELEASE WHOLE SYSTEM IMAGE :)
[General Questions and Answers] stayros32001:
when i try to update i get error 7 (additional.apk)

is there any way to by-pass the checks so as to update?
[General Questions and Answers] nunytes:
Yes, it's true. I've deleted the email app (and others). Factory reset wasn't enough, I needed to re-flash all the rom, the patch update and restore my data :)
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
it is what i am saying from begining..you have to apply the 1.15 upon stock clean 1.13 firmware with no mods!!!!
[General Questions and Answers] nunytes:
Yap, I know, that's what I did.

But the wifi tethering (portable hotspot) still not working..
[General Questions and Answers] kkffiirr:
a little present for you.

i have ported the multi lang from previous version to 1.15

i made a little patch file which will put the multilang apk in your current rom.

THIS PATCH MUST BE INSTALLED ON TOP OF VERSION 1.15, which mean that you have to update from 1.13 to 1.15 manually, and only then install my patch!

please leave me a feedback if everything works or not.

you can also "buy me a beer"....

problem

I just received my zte v5!I have updated through stock recovery to 1.15 (i used the full rom not the patch) but i have this problem.I try through your istruction to install the cwm recovery but its not possible.I have done all the right steps.Enable usb debugging run the bat file as adminstrator etc..Nothing happens in my phone!I open the bat file follow the steps but nothing..what can i do?i need to install gapps...thanks in advance.
[General Questions and Answers] fazerg:
Tsakalos, I do not know what's inside that bat file.

Just my guess. You may have to install adb drivers if they are not installed from batch file. And there may be an issue with WIndows 8 drivers compatibility and/or your locale. If you have in your path to archive anything in Greek or spaces it may fail
[General Questions and Answers] tsakalos125:
I have windows 7..i dont why this happens....
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
what happens?

0- download adb drivers from adbdriver.com and download the whole root+recovery direcotory

1-install adbdrivers

2-enable adb debbuging on your phone

3-connect your (powered on) phone to pc

4-on the phone you have to be prompted to allow adb from this loaction (mac adress of the computer you are connected to)

5-run batfile from naivn_n or my google drive (you have to download the whole root+recovery direcotry not only the bat file for god sake)

6-choose option to flash custom recovery

6-you have custom recovery
[General Questions and Answers] tsakalos125:
0- download adb drivers from adbdriver.com and download the whole root+recovery direcotory

[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
and do you see any new devices in device manager in windows, when you plug the phone in? did you tried to run the adbdriver install program when the phone is connected to the laptop?
[General Questions and Answers] tsakalos125:
yes i can see a new device!also the adb driver installer the necessary drivers and and in device status is checked ok!
[General Questions and Answers] navin_n:
if you have problem using through bat file..then you can install rashr tool apk and flash the recovery you need through that app. you dont need PC in this case.

Update: Ooops...may be you can't install through Rashr tool because it needs rooted device and your device is not rooted yet..

Suggestion:

1. Download again the Recovery file either from my Google drive or DallasCZ. Be sure to download all files. This time don't run it as Admin..just run it in normal way and check.

2. Check if your debugging mode is working or not. For this, you connect the phone to PC and then from the CMD prompt you go to the download file's folder and type "adb shell" or "adb devices". If your debugging mode is ok, then it will display shell prompt or will show the device attached.
[General Questions and Answers] nunytes:
Hi people,

Hi have the 1/4gb version. If I do the ota update to 0.50 I'll loose the multi language? If so, there is any multi language of the latest ROM?

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] wwenigma:
In 0.50 and 1.06/07 is only english/chinese language available, full multilanguage support coming with final 4.4 release.
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
i dont know if the final 4.4 will be multilingual... will ask customer care in Hongkong. but i doub it, while all releases was only chinese/english.
[General Questions and Answers] nunytes:
So I will wait, because I like it more this way (despite some things in English, witch is ok) than the system completely in english. Or if someone here knows how the integrate some languages in the ROM is also welcome. :p
[General Questions and Answers] honzajs:
More locale?
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
More Locale just help to have recent apps (which are programmed as multilangual) in your desired language..more locale does not translate the entire rom for you!

I see, I don't use, I'm working in English or Czech system. Sorry

[General Questions and Answers] SkubiDoo:
I have a question to you.

I'm using now Xiaomi Hongmi/Redmi (without 1s)

I'm thinking about to change my phone and I discover this ZTE Red Bull V5 model.

Can you tell me If this is good choice? I was reading about 2 main problems. One about 2nd SIM card slot, and second about using phone when is laying down on the table. As I good know 2nd sim slot card is already fixed by software. What about second problem?

Will you recommend this phone? Should I change my Xiaomi?
[General Questions and Answers] honzajs:
My phone has no problem with "the table". This is piece by piece depending.

IMHO : ZTE it's fast, GPS working excellent,Glonass support, display good. Previously phone Nexus S and Elephone P10C. ZTE is much better
[General Questions and Answers] SkubiDoo:
This is what I'm afraid about. Can you send me on private msg where did you buy this phone?

Is this phone using GLONASS navigation system?
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
first problem may be fixed in next official release of firmware

the problem of touchscreen responsivenes when the pfone is lying on table ...it happens not to all users, but can happen to you. And it is not dependent where you buy it!!

the build quality is not so good (the back cover is squeezing), camera is great, GPS fix also, battery is also great, 2GB of RAM is for me now the minimum..all is fast, no lags.

I cannot say you whether to boy or not this phone i dont know your usage of the phone..the decision must be made by you.
[General Questions and Answers] SkubiDoo:
Is this phone using WCDMA 900Mhz or not? Some website saying yes, some no...
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
There are various versions..if you want to use the phone in europe you have to buy "WCDMA" version and there are two subversions a) 1GB RAM,4GB ROM b) 2GB RAM, 8GB ROM.

So my version is ZTE V5 V9180 - this is wcdma vesrion with 2GB RAM and 8 GB ROM.

AND WCDMA version is 3G only, it doesnot support 4G LTE network!
[General Questions and Answers] wwenigma:
Probably it support TDD-LTE Band 38-39-40 (Poland/Spain/Sweden, Russia (Moskva/Chechnya).
[General Questions and Answers] nunytes:
I have the version with 1gb ram. I've tried to update but it gives me an error after reboot. I guess it's related to the ROM, as it is multi language/modded. By the way, I will wait to the recently version with multi language to my phone version, if it ever comes out...
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
no i dont think so...

on original site there is V9180 - 8GB RAM, 8GB ROM is V9180 model and it support only WCDMA 2100 and GSM 900,1800,1900

there also U9180 model, which is also 2GB RAM, 8GB ROM and it supports TD-LTE, DT-SCDMA, GSM

and finally N9180 model which is 2GB RAM and 8GB ROM version and it supports onyl EVDO, 2G CDMA and GSM
[General Questions and Answers] SkubiDoo:
This is why I'm asking about V9180 and WCDMA 900MHz... did you check it? I don't care about LTE.
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
i answered you..in my post 94
[General Questions and Answers] SkubiDoo:
But listen some phones are WCDMA with 2100 only and some have both - 2100 and 900 ...

ZTE is writing only about 2100, some websites about 900 and 2100 this is why I'm confused. Can you just check it? I don't know if you are using 900 WCDMA in CZ.

I Installed it as an update on your 1.12. Works perfect :)

Only cleared cache and dalvik cache before installing v1.15 zip (with CWM). No need to do a Full wipe and clean install. Just an update.

Only thing is that I noticed was that Titanium Backup couldn't uninstall apps anymore.

Had to uninstall and re-install Titanium Backup to get rid of some apps I don't need like Google+ after installing PA Gapps micro package.

After all that even YouTube works again! :o

Version 5.16.4 from 20141110 PA Gapps, don't install updates after that (diabled auto-update in Google Play for YouTube app).

My redbull was ressurected from clinical death...

Big thanks to fazerg, without him, I still have a brick.

So I'm preparing a new thread for such bricked phone for other users.
[General Questions and Answers] fazerg:
Great!

It was actually not really dead dead, ;) as in DallasCZ case. From the other side if anyone can get anywhere those two files it should be possible to resurrect phones in such cases too. Despite on his phone MB has been changed and similar diagnosis I've read was done for another ZTE nubia phone by very respected service. That phone was restored but all files were available for it. It was not V5 redbull

and for me install gapps is matter of 1 minutes (flash gapps trough recovery), and of course you can restore this from for example titanium backup.
[General Questions and Answers] marus2:
Argh, you really don't know, how long it last, until I yesterday discover that even at stock ROM I have to install GApps (I know, I have to read 2nd post).

Flashed 1.15 - power phone first time, optimizing app (neverending), add google account, can't connect to google. Hm:confused:

Flashed CM11 from 18.11.2014 - camera app doesn't work...Hm, pitty, lets flash some stock

Flashed 1.13 - power phone first time, optimizing app, add google account, can't connect to google. Hm, hmm:confused::confused:

Flashed 1.12 - power phone first time, optimizing app, add google account, can't connect to google - what the hell, my phone came with 1.12 and it works! I would try to run play store. Hmph, there is no playstore. Where the hell is the playstore? :confused: :confused::confused:

Let's flash some :good: micro GApps - not enought free space in system folder. Grrr. :mad:

I download pico GApss - hurray, I have google account :victory: - 3 hours in the a..

So I downloaded Navin_n custom 1.15, flashed it and all works on the first boot. Even optimizing app on first boot is faster.
