which version is the update? from 0.50(android 4.3) or from 1.06,07,08(android 4.4)?
[General Questions and Answers] wwenigma:
I see my mobile network provider 2times in the network list.

If you update from 0.50, first update your recovery to <v1> (4.3 ro 4.4 recovery update zip) or flash H108 factory recovery then install this update. Doesnt matter 0.50/1.06/07/08. And at last, wipe data/factory reset recommended.

ringer + notification locked?

hello,

I have stock rom, I had this in 108, and have it in 110 too: the VOLUME of incoming call is locked to notification.

I want at night a profile (with volume ace pro) so that I only hear incoming calls, but no sound for notification (sms or email).

is this a feature of kitkat? that volume of call is locked to notification? annoying.

Workaround I was thinking: in volume ace profiles, make a silence tone to notifications.
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
since 0.50 there is a profile app where is sleep mode, which mute all sounds except call rinvtone and also can disable all data transfers, which guides to less power consumption and when there are no wifi and data enabled, you get no notifications except sms messages... Look at this option under settings_feature_profiles... sleep profile can be activated easily trough shortcut in notification panel.

so you don't need any third party app like volume ace pro. :)

Issue with proximity sensor

Hello there.

I am new on Xda developers. In the first page of this thread, there are two code to resolve the proximity sensor issue. I used them for sometimes and it was just fine. Recently, it is disturbing and my phone gets black when I put it to my ear. Even power can't unlock it and I have to wait for the other side to cut the phone. I used *#776# , initially it worked but now it shows that "Signal is too weak". Now, what can I do? I also have downloaded the update from OTA, but it is full Chinese. So, I was unable to update it. Will this update resolve the proximity sensor issue?

Thank you

[General Questions and Answers] honzajs:
I have also this problem. Unfortunately I have not found another solution. System failure?
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
there are no reports, that there should be proximity sensor bug. You cannot use the 776 alone...it has to be paired always with 777 code. There are the steps:

1-*#777# - dont cover the proximity snesor and tap on start..you shouls see a message "proximity sensor set"

2-*#776# - cover the proximity sensor with hand from distance about 4-5cm you should see the moving bar somwhere in middle, tap start..then the percentage numbers must be for some time in green and then you go th emessage "proximnity snesor set"

aonly after this steps you have calibrated the proximity snesor.

[General Questions and Answers] allarpl:
To do it, I have to (correct me if I am wrong)

From your google drive I should download folder:Root+recovery files

Then run file: V9180 ROOT-RECOVERY1.08.bat

Next install: recovery_cwm6050en.img

After that I should install: 4.4-update.zip (in fact it is superSU) next gapps and voilà.

If I install custom recover, I loose opportunity to make updates from ZTE through OTA or as I understand I will not be able to install through CWM full rom from bbs.ztehn.com - I will have to restore stock recovery...

How can I secure to do not make "brick" from my ZTE :) in whole process. Thanks in advance.

Hi, I'm new here. Yesterday I bought ZTE v5 and so far I make these steps: 0.5 --> 1.08 --> V9180_4.3_to_4.4_recovery_V2 --> 1.10. What I supposed to do now?
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
you could skip the update to 1.08 and go straight from 0.50 to 1.10, but anyway, now you have to push custom recovery, root the phone (push superuser trough custom recovery) , and then install GAPPs (for kitkat) in custom recovery..all is described in OP and here in the thread, so please use search before you ask those questions.. :-/

Hi. I am a noob and first time flashing ROM.

I do upgrade to 0.5 and then use DallasCZ R&R Pack 4.3 - V9180 ROOT-RECOVERY.bat to root and doing recovery_CWM6050. I changed the line at the bat file and put this file in the active folder. The V9180 rooted and successfully get in to CWM-based mode, but it is v6.0.4.8, i dont understand why.

I try to do stock recovery, 4.3 -> 4.4, and fastboot recovery_CWM6050 again, but the CWM-based still v6.0.4.8 when i got to the cwm menu.

I try to install the V9180_V1.10 ROM, can I flash it from CWM-based v6.0.4.8? Or I should upgrade to CWM-based v6.0.5.0 first? But how to do the upgrade? Please help. I did read thread #8 already, read this whole topics, but still confused.

Thanks for help.
[General Questions and Answers] navin_n:
If you are flashing the stock ROM then you need Stock Recovery. If you are Flashing Custom ROM/Root files/GAPPS the u need CWM. It doesn't matter if the CWM is v6.0.4.8 or v6.0.5.0, you can still flash any custom ROM. By the way, the ROM you mentioned "V9180_V1.10 ROM" is Stock ROM or Custom ROM?

For Flashing the ROM follow the process below:

1) Copy Custom ROM to an external SD card root directory

2) Enter or go to CWM recovery mode and first do Wipe Data/Wipe cache/Wipe Dalvik Cache

3) After wipe, choose the Custom ROM from SD to Flash.

4) Reboot the device after installation.

Process is same for the Stock ROM but need to do flash Stock Recovery first if you have already installed CWM.

custom rom

thank you for your answers about the miui rom!

i'm currently using stcok 1.10 but i feel that device is not as fast as i hoped it would be, especially the launcher. is anyone using a faster/better custom version of 1.10? i see that there are a lot of custom roms in the chinese forums.

thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] navin_n:
may be you can try your luck with CM11 RC3 or Mokee RC4 or new MIUI ROM (link---> http://pan.baidu.com/s/1eQh9gjC)

anyway there are many custom ROMs in chinese sites which use performance tweaks, you can try those too.

But, personally i don't like the ROMs which uses performance tweaks because they are always buggy.

You said you are in stock V1.10...then you can do one thing..you root your device and remove all the unwanted chinese apps. I guess this will also improve your device performance a bit.

If you don't like the stock launcher's performance then you can always replace it with any other launchers available in Google Play like Apex, Nova, Apus etc.

Thank you for the instruction navin_n, the V9180_V1.10 ROM is the ROM I download from wwenigma - MEGA. Some how, I am still at Android 4.3, although I did flash the 4.3 to 4.4. Ok, I will try doing it as your instruction.

So the V9180_4.3_to_4.4_recovery_V2 is done by fastboot, correct? I am at firmware 0.5 now, and Android 4.3

And I did install already the GAPPS 4.4, because previously I thought that I am at 4.4. The google play store is not in the gapps, after install the google play store, it doesnt work, no connection - reply. I guess i have to re-do flashing back to Stock ROM and re-do the Custom ROM and then the GAPPS based on my Android version again. Thank you.

ZTE Redbull (TD-SCDMA) official MIUI released. (Heavenke version approved, i think its not only for TD-SCDMA because cant contains baseband, usable for all - x9180)
[General Questions and Answers] navin_n:
You are wrong. V9180_4.3_to_4.4_recovery_V2 is just changing the stock recovery from 4.3 to 4.4 and it will not change the ROM version. Since you have flashed 4.4 GAPPS to 4.3 ROM, it may not work properly.

You can do like this. Flash CWM recovery (For CWM recovery you can use DallasCZ's or the one I have made) and the flash the custom rom that i have made from V1.10. This ROM already includes GAPPS and Rooted.

E: Errorin /storage/sdcard0/X9180_V1.08_Mod.zip (Status 0) Installtion aborted.

I've also seen (Status 7). What should E: contain? It's been a long time since I flashed with CWM. Thank you!
[General Questions and Answers] navin_n:
Status 0 and Status 7 means there is some issue with the updater-script of the ROM. Anyway, just follow the things i wrote in previous post.

Stock ROM ---> Flash CWM---> Flash KitKat Root + Gapps

After you get root, you can do anything you like.

-The version of the CWM is 6.0.5.0 but htey forget to change the sign, so it shows up as 6.0.4.8 (you can read it here if you use search).

-If you wnt to use wwenigma's moded stock rom, that keep in mind that they are in fact stock roms, so always flash with stock recovery.

-If you plan to go from 0.50 or lover to 1.06 and higher please keep in mind, that you have to flash updated stock recovery (this updated stock recovery is built in in all stock roms since 1.06)

-allways do 2 times factory reset, wipe dalvik cache and wipe chache (dunno why, but all chinese sites says 2 times)

-allways flash the gapps for the current android OS version you flashed

-always flash rom, reboot, see if everything is ok, root, flash cwm, flash gapps...
