Sorry, I wont create mirrors for ports on 4PDA , I neither have the dev's permission nor the time.

But those who cannot use Yandex are in luck:

Here is a fresh port on 4PDA from developer Neuropapa for CM 13 (Android 6.0.1) that he just happened to upload to Google Drive.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bx9MzfL1_qF8bm9BTk1HcEFNNnc/view

Patches from RR port wont work or are needed as this port by Neuropapa is not RR,. For Gapps you can use OpenGapps.

[Device Reviews and Information] AgentCain:
I must say that the RR version was a bit buggy; The Setup Wizard was crushing and I had to factory reset the device after installing GApps. Even after that, the wifi was failing randomly.

However the Neuropapa version looks like a keeper! Everything runs fine, didnt have any issues after a clean installation. Also, BT and Wifi seem to work much better than my previous 4.4 installation. I think Im gonna stick with this version for a while :D
[Device Reviews and Information] AgentCain:

If I buy THL 5000 with kitkat 4.4.2 can I install android 4.2.2?

I saw on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vguhGWri9oA wrote 4.2.2.

Where I can download 4.2.2 stock for this smartphone?

Installing USB drivers

It seems that I can't install the MTK drivers for this phone so that I can then install TWRP and then root the phone. Could someone help me get this working? Thanks
[Device Reviews and Information] ttlog:
You can't do that. 4.2.2 doesn't exist for this phone. As long as Mediatek doesn't release their source code, you can't compile it on your own and run it. Most of the hardware wouldn't work. Also on the video you post, that is probably a pre-production model. If you observe closely, the back cover is completely different. The camera is in the wrong place, and also the cover has a different texture and holes for the speaker.

Hi any body else having problem with smart gesture and two fingers for selfie not working? Thl 5000
[Device Reviews and Information] athlonoc:
I have since found that I can't even flash the recovery now the phone is rooted.

Using Mobile Uncle it I simply select recovery update and then locate the recovery.img file sitting in SDCard2 and asks if I'm sure I want to flash recovery. I click OK and then it asks for me to boot into recovery, but I go to stock recovery every time.

I take it that it's not flashing the new TWRP recovery image?

Any ideas why this would happen

Thanks

Lee
[Device Reviews and Information] KeFe:
That was discussed before...

You have to download it trough Flashtool.

Use scatter file from the original rom (http://www.needrom.com/category/thl/thl-5000/) and select only recovery part to download/flash. The twrp recovery is there also.

You can enter the phone to download mode by the reset button under the sim card slot.

By the way, I can enter mine with just turn it off, and connect to pc immediately after the phone vibrate a short one.
[Device Reviews and Information] athlonoc:
Ah, so that is to use the original scatter file from original rom. Put that in same folder as the recovery.img file from TWRP and reboot phone then click on download. This will then just put TWRP recovery image into firmware for me.

Am I right with that?

Thanks

That phone got hot with every game. And my Sony Xperia S just gets warm, still comfortable to hold in my hand but the elephone got 70 degrees celsius and wasn't comfortable to hold in my hand any more. And because the CPU got that hot I think it also affected the battery because that was draining 1% every 30 seconds.

[Device Reviews and Information] edcoolio:
I believe this ROM has the 900Mhz / 2100 Mhz modem.

If you are in the USA:

To fix your 3G, this should do the trick:

https://mega.nz/#!S9gXjJQD!Scc731rcsqUQLb_JHKCqDNuCpHc0oPsC0FeO1kz_nZs

Download to phone.

Boot to recovery (TWRP).

Wipe dalvik and cache.

Install file Modem-850.zip

Wipe dalvik and cache again. (trust me)

Reboot device.

Allow at least an hour for the signal to stabilize. with your WiFi disabled - use your data normally. This should give the same connectivity as OEM. Try setting your APN as Bearer Unspecified if it is giving you issues.

After this, bluetooth seemed to work much better, but it still took forever (and multiple attempts) for devices to pair. Once paired, everything has worked smoothly so far. To pair, I played with turning off WiFi. Once paired, it was GTG. I have no Bluetooth LE devices nor do I connect automobiles, so this may not do it for you, but it is worth a shot.
[Device Reviews and Information] Hithammer:
I`m in Germany but you`re right, 850 should be the correct modem... But BT is a problem... I use external GPS Receivers, they worked with some luck. A connection to my car mediasystem and the OTG dongle was impossible, they were not found by the phones BT. My headphone was found, but pairing was impossible and on some other gadgets i had only 1 second for typing the pairing code...

P.S.: I used the word damn because the rest of the rom was working stable, including xposed....

P.S. to myself: Switch off german autocorrection :)

HI,

My thl 5000 is bricked. Nothing happens at all. i tried the rest button etc, nothing. I cant flash it because it seems there is no power and the computer doesn't recognize it. what is strange is that once in a while i can get it to charge, including red status light and battery logo on screen. but then if i push any buttons, screen goes blank, sometimes with backlight.

unfortunately i cannot replicate any of this anymore, hence i cant try to flash. Any ideas on how to get it to charge again/ a way to flash it?

Thanks!

Back up, Rooting and new ROM

Hello, guys. I am in a need of some help.

I have an issue with my girlfriends thl 5000. The phone went crazy after I placed my SIM into her phone. It got locked and I had to flash a new ROM. It is now with an original one from THL site. The ROM is not what we had before. The phone is missing leather pattern and gestures, the notification bar is not very reaponsive and the phone keeps restarting. Mainly while charging. Lately whenever it feels like it. Could you please guide me how to:

Back up her current settings, app data, contats and stuff. The phone is not rooted.

Root the phone.

Install a new ROM ( If possible link me to the stock ROM, that has those options, leather patter and gestures).

Please have in mind, that i am a newb. So please guide me as if I am an idiot.

Thank you in advance. It would be a great help!!

One of the antennas is on the cover, try to check that one first.

And actually, next to the camera (without the cover) you have written "WIFI/BT" so that should be the antenna.

[Device Reviews and Information] mirhl:
Not sure how many people would still be interested in 2020 to this brick..

Anyway, after searching for ядро (kernel) on the 4pda thread I found out user nexusnexus once stated that he got the sources of another similar phone to boot here (even though "the video driver is a bit of a different [and] the image flickers and is bumpy".. probably something to do with this).

This phone was supposedly the Micromax A350.. Which has no open source release to be known of.

In the thread of this other device though, you also get to know that for most (all?) intent and purposes this can be assumed to be the same of a MyPhone Aqua Infnity or Wiko Highway.

This latter device happening to have kernel sources available!

A german forum could confirm separately my assumption too.

So.. If any madlad is still out there, the ball is in his court now.

A list of other MT6592 devices is here then, with some trees available here.

Bonus: a THL device with the same cpu (albeit it's MT6592W instead of MT6592T) and some spanish phones having got even linux 3.10.

Flashing TWRP

OK, as you might see a few posts later I tried flashing with SP Flash Tools as it wasn't working with Mobile Uncle. That was an even bigger nightmare getting SP Flash Tools to see the phone with the driver issues.

So went back to Mobile Uncle...............

The reason for this post / reply to my original question above is that not everything is as it seems. I rooted phone with VRoot Chinese version and it seemed to have worked - VRoot stated it was rooted as too did a 3rd party root clarification program. However I was always dubious that it had worked correctly as I was not able to copy files into the root of the phone. I could see the root but no files ever got copied over.

I decided to do a factory reset of THL5000, I then un-rooted phone with VRoot. Rebooted phone and then re-rooted phone. I left the SU that gets installed Chinese version and tried to install recovery image into root with root explorer.

This time the file did get written to the root and was visible unlike before. So I ran Mobile Uncle and flashed recovery image and this time it worked.

So the moral of this post is although things might appear to be as you would expect, don't take it for granted as I did for three frustrating days.

Now running Modified Rom V5 from Bshuy

Lee
[Device Reviews and Information] crz2uf:
did you try using the older version of SP_Flash_tool?

I think it was the SP_Flash_Tool_v5.1343.01
[Device Reviews and Information] athlonoc:
To be honest I don't think I did, but in any case the preloader drivers were or are the issue I think as the phone when switched off keeps lighting up when it try to use the driver, then goes off again. Common problem for installing them if I remember rightly. You have to be quick and right click the preloader driver then update etc.

Anyway mate thanks for the info. I have since managed to move forward see post above. I eventually got Mobile Uncle working and replaced recovery that way and flashed new modified rom with that.

Thanks
