Driver

Pretty sure from memory:

Mchael T

Power off phone, connect to computer straight after power of vibration. Watch device manager, it will show a driver loaded on connection then disappears, I think it was pre loader driver. It was a frustrating process but was good to see reboot into TWRP. Hope this helps and is related to your question as I breifly read.

[Device Reviews and Information] hasaan6545:
I had a similar problem and after alooot of testing, reflashing and restoring apps and data, it turned out the the third party launcher I was using was the culprit.

Do not enable the options to free up idle memory in TSF Shell or Next Launcher (or any other launcher's) performance settings.

Push notifications worked fine ever since :)

Hi, this is to inform that there is a problem with the gamma.

After installig the rom v3 the gamma is at 2.0 but if you push the power to exit and then go back sliding the locker, the gamma goes back to 1.2

ciao from Italy.

[Device Reviews and Information] rbt07:
I do not understand, for me it normally works. You had to make something wrong. Gama is 2.0 in every time. It doesn't matter if you make switch off. You have to install patch from TWRP. I use this rom everyday, no problem with Gama after patch instaled.
[Device Reviews and Information] stingrey123:
Where can I find out which series of this phone I have?
[Device Reviews and Information] rbt07:
JInstall Display Tester APK from Braintrapp from Google Play. There is Gama detection test, it shows you Gama value. If you have value 1.8-2.0 do not install patch. If you have value 1.2, install patch, then you will have Gama value 2.0.

Do not use task killer under long press Home button and you will not any problems. Download and install "Recent_App_wo_Button" patch which remove this task killer from this ROM. Look to Neednom - http://www.needrom.com/download/classic-v3mod/
[Device Reviews and Information] enzo-ita:
Immediately after installing the v3, the gamma is 2.0 but then it goes back to 1.2

Because it is 2.0 right after, one can think that the patch is already in the rom but probably it is not or it can be better integrate.

After applying the patch actually the gamma remains 2.0 all the time.

Thanks for your answer.

Ciao

If i'm not mistaken, if you screen has good gamma and the CPU is 1.7Ghz, then it's first version, if the gamma is bad (without patch) and CPU is 2.0Ghz, then it's version 2.
[Device Reviews and Information] stingrey123:
Thanks I have 2 GHz cpu but didnt noticed bad gamma (official ROM latest patch)

How long does your battery charge mine takes four hours but I can't get more then 6 hours on screen when not doing anything battery consuming even my Optimus 2X lasted similar duration it seems to be too low value when even even battery burn in test sucked all the juice in more then 6 hours
[Device Reviews and Information] sansanc:
Yes, if you have the latest patch, gamma is normal because the fixed it. Mine takes 4 or 5 hours, don't know for sure, always charge when i sleep. And yes, the screen, generally speaking, is the most battery sucker thing in this phone. I'm wainting for the new Elephone with 5600+ Mah, but it looks the chipset is going to be the same, therefore = bad GPS.

Kitkat's no write issue with mSD cards

So the other day I didn't have my 64GB mSD in the phone, I took some pictures, it showed up as

sdcard1

in my file explorer and Quick Pic Viewer. Then

with the sdcard inthe phone

the pictures showed up as

sdcard0.

I have 2 folders with camera pictures(0 and 1), this is the same with the screenshots and browser pictures DL's and others.

I can swap, edit

or

delete from both folders, from both locations.

So, the other day after I installed TWRP I tried to delete a pic from picture0, which happens to be on the sdcard, it wouldn't, I got some popup stating to install some patch from the Google Play Store, and that KK does not support this option.

As I have R00T, I did the file entry change not the patch from the GooPlyStr......It didn't work even after several reboots.

Still the same popup.

So the file that needed to have a line added is here:

/system/etc/permissions

And the file:

platform.xml

Look for this entry:

name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE

LOOK FOR THIS ENTRY:

<group gid=”sdcard_rw”/>.

Long press the file and go to the EDIT option, add this line:

<group gid="media_rw"/>

It should look like this when finished:

IT DIDN"T WORK!............

So after a few shutdowns and reboots it self fixed itself,

Anyone else have this problem?

For me the most sucks signal as it shows me that 60% of consumption takes signal, display eats only 18% on average... The GPS is not bad, cold fix in 30 sec, others in 2-3 sec and tracks the road in Sygic steadily even in tunels where my old Optimus 2X lost signal

And if you want new phone 600 mAh is not much more... Better buy something with the Big.little technology like Honor 6 twice better performance and great battery life even with smaller battery

Works 900 mhz 3G ( patch ) ?

Hi

Works like 900 Mhz 3G modem to the phone in any rom? In dimid rom v2 v3 does not work, there was no 3G signal 900 MHz, has anyone 100% that he's working on some rom?

thank you

sorry bad english :)
[Device Reviews and Information] sansanc:
The 900Mhz doesn't work with me either. I suspect the people that say it work, were actually using 2100 instead of 900. To test if 900 is really working, you have to select only 900 UMTS on band mode on engineer mode and reboot. But i think they didn't do that.

Anyone have issues with the stock browser? Every so often can't connect to https sites, but ok with other sites. Other browsers don't seem to have this problem. I really prefer AOSP but this bug is driving me crazy.

I can use task killer to stop restart the browser and it's ok again at least until the next time.

Also having issues with random wifi drop outs that can be fixed by stop start wifi. I'm on stock 1.1.1 if that makes a difference.
[Device Reviews and Information] sansanc:
Stock sucks, use firefox or chrome. On wifi, you can try another radio driver, search the classin ROMs on needrom, there are radio files there.
[Device Reviews and Information] wordcougar:
I guess it depends on what you're looking for in a browser. Firefox and chrome both don't do text reflow or flash player so I would rate them very poorly.

I've been using stock for years and it feels like home to me. Sure the latest one doesn't do flash nor incognito and this is disappointing but it does text reflow and tab management brilliantly. If it wasn't for the https issues, I'd be happy enough.

I thought radio drivers were just for 2g/3g do they affect wifi too?

So I'm getting a little tired of the unsmoothness of the THL in various places. Is there currently any ROM out there for the THL 5000 that is as smooth as a Nexus device?

If not, what is the smoothest ROM out there?

EDIT: IF you ask what about the phone isn't smooth, it isn't fixed by installing a different launcher (I already have Nova launcher). Scrolling through certain apps, eg Evernote is not smooth at all, while it is buttery smooth on other devices, even the Moto G. Games like Clash of Clans (OK this is quite strange), not sure if many of you have played it, but when you collect gold/elixir, the animation of the gold leaving the mines and going into your stash is quite laggy compared to other devices, even less powerful ones.

My display has weird offset 3-5 pixel lines on the bottom are not working correctly the just copy the color of pixel above also few pixels lines from up seems to be totally off the display... Any solution how to fix this? I have pure up-to-date stock ROM

---------- Post added at 07:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:50 PM ----------

Yes the hardware in this phone is a bit disappointment for me too... Even despicable me 2 is sometimes pretty choppy and that is a problem when this game is a lot about fast reactions.. Modern combat 5 unplayable, world of Tanks 23 - 49fps (not mentioning weird connectivity drops)

I tried many ROMs, but this one is the best up to now:

http://www.needrom.com/download/classic-rom-v1-0-by-iv2012-thl-5000/

The others are also good, but need from time to time run cache cleaner to speed up the phone.
[Device Reviews and Information] zijin_cheng:
Thanks. Is there a significant difference? Also, playing intense games is buttery smooth, its just that the firmware seems to be very poorly optimized.

Actually, a few questions about the ROM, do I have to restart smart gestures every time I reboot the phone? Is the Wifi issue fixed?

Thanks!

EDIT: SOrry, on the Needrom page, the first download link is "Download from Yadi.sk". Is this the V3 ROM with 850MHz?

Has anyone experienced tethering problems with this phone?

Using SIM 1 only, when I insert a Vodafone (Greece) card, tethering does not work (bluetooth, usb, wifi)

Using SIM 1 only, when I insert a Cosmote (Greece) card, tethering DOES work (bluetooth, usb, wifi)

Both connect to the Internet, but only the Cosmote one can tether (tethering is not blocked by the provider, ie Vodafone)

Both cards work well and can tether on two other phones that I used (Alcatel 918D Dual Sim, LG E455 Dual Sim)

Only on THL 5000 tethering does not work with the Vodafone card.

Any hints would be greatly appreciated.

Trying to install Dimid's ROM now, but my phone is stuck on "Formatting Cache using make_ext4fs function", any ideas?
[Device Reviews and Information] sansanc:
On my phone, formatting the cache partition takes a while. Try to wait at least 15-20 minutes. Or the phone really freezes? Can you still use TWRP after that? If not, well, hit the red reset button on slot1.

Oh ok, let me try waiting, because after waiting maybe 5 minutes, I hit the reset button because on other XDA forums, they stated it took 1 minute or less

just waiting for our good friend [MENTION=1994695]Sonic1SVK[/MENTION] to make a port of the leaked xiaomi redminote MIUI6 rom... even in a beta state it could work...

---------- Post added at 02:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:13 PM ----------

is this a software issue?

I've tested literally every rom available for this phone, and in every one the screen is offset a couple of pixels
[Device Reviews and Information] wooley4766:
can u post photo what u mean?

i dont have this issue

greetz:cool:
[Device Reviews and Information] stingrey123:
There are photos you can see that the last set of icons is not rounded but has a weird looking edge it is caused by the malfunctioning line of pixels... On the second photo it is not visible as it is screen capture which does not even see these malfunctioning pixels = everything seems "ok"... but it is not

You can also notice it when a full screen app in landscape is launched if the text is too close to the left edge of the screen (the upper edge in normal screen position) it will be partially cut

EDIT:

u can also notice when looking to notification area... In normal screen position there is no free space above battery but in landscape there is visible background -> display is offset
[Device Reviews and Information] sansanc:
Looks like a valid defect. Enough to send it to warranty, if you want.
[Device Reviews and Information] enzobelmont:
this defect is barely noticeable, and I can live with it; if it can be fixed by software I will be happy.
[Device Reviews and Information] stingrey123:
This seems to be pretty common defect as there are more ppl having it... I am curious if there is a software solution as these pixels are working the are just inactive most time
[Device Reviews and Information] wooley4766:
u can try with a program like display tester which have a mode to test dead pixels...

but these programs have also a way to fix dead or lazy pixels..

good luck
[Device Reviews and Information] enzobelmont:
no, the pixel are fine, the problem here is that there are two pixel rows painting same content... I believe this is a kernel/graphic driver bug...
[Device Reviews and Information] stingrey123:
Enzo is right that program can solve only burn-ins which are caused by LCD technology but these pixels are alive they just don't receive correct command to polarize so they do their best to at least color somehow... There could also be problem in the data stream to these pixels... Don't exactly know how LCD handles it's pixels but there could be something broken between pixel and GPU... Do you have this problem too Wooley?
[Device Reviews and Information] stingrey123:
How much on-screen time you get? I can't reach more then six and a half hours...
[Device Reviews and Information] Grimmy1st:
Atm 7 h 15 m, 20% to go (+ 1 gb wifi Downloads while screen off). 2nd battery circle. Modded classic rom v3 (see needrom). Auto-brightness. Use of Greenify (useful), greenpower (ev. Useless, have to check), xposed with xprivacy (restricted app rights like intetnez if not neces.)

So, i think 9-11 h should be possible, BUT user and usage-dependent!

I don't “game“, but surf (chrome, very smooth) heavily.

P.S. i have this strange pixel line behavior at the bottom too, but don't disturb, because normally not visible
[Device Reviews and Information] wooley4766:
i dont have any graphics problems...no dead or lazy pixels and no of the photo's problems...

screen on time about 10hrs (internet/youtube etc...)

when i moderately use my phone (2 hrs per day internet) the battery lasts 4-5 days easy...

i never charge when % is above 10%...

when it wants to switch off because less than 1% i connect charger

greetz
[Device Reviews and Information] stingrey123:
Big expectations and even bigger defects...

Well i bought this for its huge battery, great performance, good display and good camera...

1. battery: today 4:54 hours on screen and 17% remaining = disaster

2. performance: lags... MC 5 which should be optimised is unplayble = disaster,

3. display = pixel offset! = disaster,

4. camera = daylight is good, night photos - impossible, unless u don't mind no details and extreme grain = bad

+ GPS = mostly good, sometimes really jumps thru streets, lost signal (even in totally open space) = average

I have alredy written an e-mail to reseller for warranty servis.
[Device Reviews and Information] wooley4766:
for all have problems with battery...

first off all u have to fully charge/fully empty phone until shutdown

after about ten or more cycles like this battery will have full capacity

most important dont have too many energy eating apps running all time (whatsapp/messengers/etc...)

for the rest i would like to state that this fone is good value for money

its about 1/3 of price as a Samsung S5 but performance is about 2/3

and battery life 2-3 times better than S5 ( S5 =1 day empty normal use)

For Gps yeah its mediatek but overall usable for me

screen is good and has gorilla glass looks almost as crisp as my wife S5 amoled angles are good

Camera is really good in daylight but in dark its like all phones not like a real camera

Games...runs most games smooth but gets hot when playing..

tested mC5 (not HD) this games is from 2013 and is optimized for MTK 8 core

runs great,no lags

MC5 HD is a game that lags even a bit on Samsung S5 from my wife....

so on my THL it lags on full details

this is primarely because the screen is full HD 1920*1080 and the Mali 450 struggles with it.

The only phones who can run this game in full HD 1920*1080 are snapdragons 2,5 Ghz with adreno GPU but they are 3 times the price

Call and sound quality is excellent even with 2 sims

So for me its a winner!@

cheers
[Device Reviews and Information] stingrey123:
For the price it is really outstanding that's true but I cannot agree with the battery I may have defected one but according to GSam battery monitor most of the usage takes signal and display... Apps with background processes included eat 3 - 15% in dependence of use... But YouTube videos suck the battery in max 6 and half of hour that is less then it should be according to official numbers and numerous tests made by reviewers
