I tried with Power+Vol Down and the phone booted on a Chinese menu that I think run a kind of healthcheck...not recommended action ...

I used the Reset button behind the SIM card1 to restore my phone.

Any help from the guys that have already used FlashTools with THL 5000 would be really appreciated....

:) HELP! :)

//dfinikis
[Device Reviews and Information] Panick_mg:
You have to turn off the phone after that keep pressing the red reset button after insert the USB cable then release the red button.

Before you follow this procedure the flash tool must be in download mode,good luck.
[Device Reviews and Information] grektank:
I cant use the SP flash tools.My mobile stuck at boot image and i cant use it.I dont know what to do.I think i erased everything.

Any help plz...
[Device Reviews and Information] ccav2000:
In my OPPO R819, that chinese menu is also the download mode. Just don't mess with the menu itself, don't touch it. Worse case, do what [MENTION=3605176]Panick_mg[/MENTION] says.
[Device Reviews and Information] trueno92:
if the menu is in chinese, remove the SD card and go to MMC option.

From what I tried, it resets everything back to default

this is a different video I took using the lenovo super camera. the bitrate is significantly higher 1min vid = 127mb 1080p video.

also, here are my battery life log for my first 2 day stretch.. it got to about a day and a half.. but a lot of it was using the camera and web browsing, which i find always puts the unit at 2gig...

[Device Reviews and Information] KeFe:
install the MTK drivers, start the flashtool, browse the correct scatter file, select the partitions you want to flash, and hit download

turn off the phone, and after the short vibration connect it to the usb port

If you did it right, then it should start the downloading/flashing procedure

I had a Zopo ZP980 a year before what I cannot get into bootloader mode by the usual methods. I used a tool named mtkdroidtools v242. That was the only way to bootloader, and flash cwm to that one.

I dont know if that works for THL 5000 too, so use that your own risk!
[Device Reviews and Information] domy_os:
I suggest you to format it from CWM/TWRP recovery.

Increase the earpiece volume during a call (default maximum is rather weak):*

a) start icon Settings / Options Developer / Engineer mode*

b) pull your finger across the screen from right to left, you will be in the "Hardware Testing"*

c) click on the "Audio", select "Normal mode"*

d) under "Type" select "Sph" and set the following levels:*

* *Level 0 -> 40*

* *Level 1 -> 60*

* *Level 2 -> 80*

* *Level 3 -> 100*

Doubt

im sorry rbt07 but i have a question about one of those patchs from the russian page that you translate for us (roms like the one from iv2012).

currently im using the stock 1.1.0 not the custom one, so i wanted to ask, can i use the patch named "Powerprofile" from this rom?

"rom-v1-1-0-iv2012"

right now i don't want to change my rom but i would like to have the battery stats fixed (if thats the function of that patch of course)

so it is possible? cuz as far as i know that custom rom is based on the original 1.1.0 stock one

thanks in advance :)
[Device Reviews and Information] rbt07:
Hi, for stock ROM 1.1.0. you have to use this patch http://uloz.to/xgeVt4ny/power-fix-110-zip
[Device Reviews and Information] domy_os:
You can try one of these codes:

*#*#3646633#*#*

*#*#35789#*#*

It's possible from engineering mode, use the codes above.

On which device? I had this bug with Prestigio, I assume that problem was in kernel.

BTW, I think that Dimid's Classic ROM v3 has much better display colors then any previous ROM I tried. What do you think, guys?
[Device Reviews and Information] ikian:

Please wite in detail all of steps you made, maybe you did something wrong. I flashed OPPO_UI about two or three time and had no problems at all.
[Device Reviews and Information] kasvet-efza:
Firstly wiped, installed OppoUI_F_Odex_rbt1.zip

than installed AutoBr_oppo.zip

after installing done i've installed xposed framework and gravity box module. Everything just like this. After restart it gives me error com.android. media. Also i've tried without external sd card
[Device Reviews and Information] rbt07:
Do not install xposed framework and try if the ROM is stable.
[Device Reviews and Information] domy_os:
Backup important data from internal SD card, boot into recovery and format it. After process completes, wipe cache and dalvik cache, then restart the phone.
[Device Reviews and Information] rbt07:
Install application Mobile uncle tools from Google Play there is option "Engineer Mode", use it. But you have to have ROOT if you want something set.

---------- Post added at 12:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:12 PM ----------

The possibilities are more, e.g. install Xpossed framework and Gravity Box - then the battery switch in the information bar will show the battery temperature and capacity in mAh.
[Device Reviews and Information] kasvet-efza:
Without xposed and gravity box there is no issue
[Device Reviews and Information] spooky_ghosty:
Hi thanks a lot!! I got into engineer Mode and now it's set....without root ...and I CAN REALLY hear the difference!!!!!!!!!!!! :good:

Now my only issue is how to make camera better I get a lot of noise with it, and when with flash they get too white lol.
[Device Reviews and Information] rbt07:
Well you see, Xpossed may not work in every ROM.

Xpossed framework is designed only for pure Android. OPPO_UI ROM is not a pure Android!

Hi,

What is the difference between your two roms? In one the file name is "THL_KK_Classic_v2_rbt1.zip" and in the link above you have "thl-kk-classic-v2-rbt2-zip". Are there any changes between these two roms/file names? I had wifi issues with "THL_KK_Classic_v2_rbt1.zip" and I was wondering if some changes in "thl-kk-classic-v2-rbt2-zip" may have fixed them :)

Anyone still uses the hybrid L version? How is it?
[Device Reviews and Information] enzobelmont:
I was using it until it loops into a restart cycle; that's really a dealbreaker to me.

this problem is due a buggy google play store.

This rom is smooth and fast it is worth a try.

if someone find a workaround to tits problems, it would be a good rom.

[Device Reviews and Information] jy_P:
You can try KingGo Root. But I don't know if it is going to work with the THL 5000.

Another way, worse case, would be to flash the Original ROM from NeedRom on your phone. It would be back as it came when you first got it.

sdcard0 / sdcard1 swap

Hello group,

I have a problem with the phone swapping the internal memory (sdcard0) with the microSD card when used.

So when the external memory card is inserted, it becomes sdcard0 (should be sdcard1) and internal memory becomes sdcard1.

I wouldn't mind if that did not created problems with Titanium backup which refuses to restore anything at all.

I rooted the phone (official rom) then I thought that the problem was perhaps coming from the rooting, so now I reverted to the last official rom again, but the problem still remains. Without microSD card inserted, internal memory is sdcard0, with the card inserted, the internal memory becomes again sdcard1.

Anybody has the same problem ?

Is there a fix or a workaround ?

Thanks you

Yannis
[Device Reviews and Information] rbt07:
Swaping SD cards is not a mistake, it is normal. Kitkat brings big security change in access to SD card.

If you want write to SD card as in older Android, have to install SD card fix APK from Google play. Root is need.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix

This fix allow you write to external SD card. Apply patch and default write disk in Settings/Storage set to SD card. Now Titanium will work.
[Device Reviews and Information] jsfero:
Interesting, my S3 is also on kitkat and it did not have any problem with the SD card (i remember we did have one from android 4.0.1 I think) but I guess that is not a global rule for some reasons.

Anyways, I will re-root the phone then and follow you advice.

Thank you for the very quick reply and your help, much appreciated.
[Device Reviews and Information] rbt07:
Some KitKat ROMs has SD card patch applied by default. Maybe S3 also. Really pure KitKat has security restriction as I described. Read more here:

http://m.androidcentral.com/kitkat-sdcard-changes
[Device Reviews and Information] jsfero:
Now that you mention it, it does ring some bells. I thing the custom roms I am using on the S3 had everything already taken care of.

Again, many thanks for your time and help, take care.
[Device Reviews and Information] rbt07:
You have to move ring tones from internal SD to external SD.

Did you apply that patch? Without patch is internal SD now unaccessible, because you set Default write disk to external SD.

It is a really crazy, but this is a new security policy in KitKat by default. It is really uncomfortable, apply patch.

All APK now will be write to external SD. On internal SD you can save some films, music or... I have there Sygic directory with maps (it is possible to move Sygic directory from external SD to internal SD, Sygic will work).
[Device Reviews and Information] jsfero:
Nope, I did not apply any patch actually.

Are they more that need to be applied and where can we find them ?

Is that somehow related to the Titanium backup problem to restore apps from the card ?
[Device Reviews and Information] rbt07:
Yes, exactly. Install patch from GP https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix and Titanium Backup will work. Read my older posts., have to set Default write disk to external SD card!!!
[Device Reviews and Information] jsfero:
Ok, sorry I did not understand, thank you for the link, I thought it was something else than your previous answer.

Thanks again.
[Device Reviews and Information] rbt07:
If Titanium Backup can not find a directory with the backup on SD card , you must do the following:

- save Titanium Backup folder to SD card (the name is "TitaniumBackup")

- run Titanium BAckup apk

- click on left button under display - choose Preferences -> Backup folder location

- click Detect -> SD card

- Titanium will find path /storage/sdcard0/TitaniumBackup (click on it)

- now click on "Use the current folder" - It's in the lower right corner

- done

Problem with Good For Enterprise & THL 5000

Hi all,

I'm trying to install the app Good For Enterprise (GFE) because my company use this as a mail app for Android smartphone.

The problem is that the GFE security policy identify the Vendor ROM (1.1.0) as a "Rooted ROM". I already involved the GFE Support, they bought a THL 5000 and tested it with the same results.

Could you please help me to identify the issue?

Thanks in advance for the support

I can bind the numbers with the SIM 1 or 2 but when i call the phone ask me however to select the SIM 1 or 2. Someone have tried this function?

The Vendor ROM version is 1.1.0

Thanks in advance for the support

button acting weird

Hello,

Volume down does not respond. power button is also acting weird. He turns on the device but do not turn it off. Hold it does nothing.

Thank you
[Device Reviews and Information] asgaroth0:
Open the back cover and pull out sim 1and hold down the red reset button for a couple of seconds, see if that helps

Did not help.

Every time I restart the phone went to - RECOVERY and I have to wait a few minutes before I turn it on again.

Volume down works only once after the restart.

As long as I do not press it, the button turns on and off responding. When I click on the volume control down once it reduces the volume all the way down. Button turns on and off the screen just turns on.

Very strange.

Hi guys, need your expertise. My thl charges painfully slow. It starts to take around 900mA, but then it drops to 300mA within few minutes. I've tried several chargers and cables with same result. Using stock 1.1.0 rom and no root. USB port visually is clean and all soldering joints are fine. I suspect it might be kernel, which thinks, that battery is almost full and drops the charging current. Can it be the case? Other option is that battery controller is malfunctioning. Although I've disconnected battery and charged it to full without any issue.
[Device Reviews and Information] hasaan6545:
Taranich, Mine takes almost 4 hours to charge fully using the stock charger. This is kind of normal for such a large battery.

How have you checked the charging current? I thought out kernel doesn't support charging current measurements
[Device Reviews and Information] sansanc:
I think stock charger is 1.5A, if you use less power full chargers, of course ir will take more time. How many hours does it take to full charge?
[Device Reviews and Information] jy_P:
Not everyone got the 1.5a, they did shipped cheaper one at some point for the American market.
[Device Reviews and Information] flash-75:
I installed batterie info and in the logs I can see that charging time varies between 4 and 10 hrs.

I use the stock charger and a 2a charger shipped with my tablet.

Ill have a look if it depends on the charger.
[Device Reviews and Information] taranich:
I am using this battery monitor "_https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ccc71.bmw&hl=en" it shows mA flow.

I am using stock charger. It's 1.5A, but according to the battery monitor it starts to take arround 900mA.

4 hours is very reasonable time on stock charger 1500mA * 4h - 20% loss = 4800 mAh.

My phone doesn't take charge in normal way. E.g. if I start to charge it while it is empty - it strarts from 900mA and drops to 250-300 mA within 5 minutes. If I start to charge it when it has around 70% charge - it drops current almost to 0 within few minutes. Highest charge on battery I've ever seen on my phone was 4.0V, while it should be 4.1 according to Charger_TopOff_Value : [4110]mV. To reach this value it took around 15 hours.

I'm starting to think, that I have a problem with PSU chip :(
