Regarding problems with the youtube app. I was unable to play youtube videos for several weeks in the app, always getting the connection to server error. Then I went into Google settings (should be an app installed when you installed google play services). If "opt out of interest based ads" is ticked then untick it. If this still does not work then reset advertising ID. Sometimes when i install new roms the error cames back and i may have to do the avove steps several times before it finally works.

Z7 2.5G partition limitation

Hi guys,

Voice calls Issue with LTE switched on

HI,

I recently purchased Nubia z7 mini. I am seeing a problem with 4g/LTE sim. When the LTE is switched on, I can get and make calls but after 3 or 4 seconds, the sound goes completely silent and then it is only intermittent sound (like in a low signal area). I tried in a full signal area. But if i switch off LTE , then i can hear the sounds perfectly and there is no issues like intermittent sounds and voice drops.

I tried swapping the sims still the issue persists.

Is this a hardware problem? I have not rooted it or updated the firmware. It is still on the NX507J_CNCommon_V1.42 ? Do you think i should send the phone back to the chinese retailer?

Please help...

Leo_83 - have you tried the repartition as of yet? I'm thinking about doing it in hopes that my comments on the other thread about my apps routinely disappearing will be solved.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Leo_83:
No I haven't tried yet perhaps at the end of the month when I go back to the Mokee rom. One thing there was someone who tried and got WiFi and BT problem but there was a fix posted by yiphoming I belive and also a manual fix by the person that had the problem.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] pedrud:
This relates to what I was just posting on the other thread; repartitioning seems to only be a side fix to the issue of apps disappearing. But still may be worth it for other reasons too.

[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Leo_83:

[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] pedrud:
No, no; I have not partitioned yet. I was seriously thinking of doing that because of those issues. Since Google has not fixed the issue yet (unless they have done so in lollipop) I was going to partition to deal with the issue until it is resolved.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] pcunha:
Hey, I just wanted to share some results here. I've installed Mokee and it's working fine so far. Fast and smooth. And I had no problem using wifi 5Ghz as it was reported before. It's pre-rooted but I had to install gapps manually. No big deal.

However, there are two issues that I have seen so far: Gallery does not show thumbnails, but it can be replaced by quickpic. The other one is that the phone does not ring, only vibrates, for incoming calls to the SIM2. It seems to be an issue with CM too. The workaround is installing an app called Dualsim Ringtone, that has fixed this issue.

I don't have LTE, so it was not tested.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Leo_83:
5Ghz seem to be just for my phone, it doesn't work on Cuoco either so must be bad HW.

Hi friends,

I am using Cuoco 1.60 in my Nubia and i like so much. The Wifi 5Ghz and LTE are working fine.

Thanks
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Leo_83:
Like I said it seems to be a HW issue with my phone.

For updating there is an app called OTA updater that comes with the rom, click it an search for rom updates, follow the steps to download and install.

Hello all,

Thanks to [MENTION=4148238]yiphoming[/MENTION] for posting this tool. I have now translated it into English for those who were concerned about using it in Chinese. While it is in English, please follow yiphoming's instructions for how to use it on your PC. I have not tried it yet, because I don't have admin rights on my work computer and cannot install the nubia drivers without it. I may have to try the partition manually at home on my linux computer.

Edited 4.11.13:

Deleted is the link to download the English version. If anyone uses it, please let us know. As always BACKUP your phone before doing this! Good luck!

The previous version had some errors and this is the corrected version.

[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Leo_83:
Hey yiphoming, do you know how the fixes work, I haven't repartitioned but I do have problem with connecting to 5 GHz WiFi, never been able to do it. Been on different room but is the same issue on all. Hoping maybe that the patches you linked to might help me...

---------- Post added at 04:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:04 PM ----------

First you should be on CWM recovery other than that you don't need to do anything. Install the zip with version name 2.10 them when the rom is installed use the OTA updater app to update to 2.14
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] pedrud:
I understood that it was for anyone; however, you ask a good question. I'm curious to see how yiphoming responds. I have not repartitioned yet, but I do have the wifi problem. I don't use BT for anything, so I don't know if that is a problem too.

---------- Post added at 03:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:13 PM ----------

Here is yiphoming's post with the patch.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Leo_83:
I'm "glad" I'm not the only one with this issue, thought I was the only one affected. I use my BT on daily basis and have not had any issues more than it takes a bit too long to get started compared to other devices I had before. Yeah let's see if we can get some help from [MENTION=4148238]yiphoming[/MENTION]. I don't even know how to implement the fixes, saw that they were .bat-files.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] pedrud:
I just checked on MoKee under Advanced WiFi (in settings) here is what I found:

- Wi-Fi frequency band: Allows you to choose 5Ghz only, 2.4 Ghz only, or auto

- Wi-Fi region code: Allows you to choose the region where you live so you use the Wi-Fi frequency most common there

I hope this helps.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Leo_83:

No, maybe after the month ends... Hehe you are waiting for me to do it [emoji38] I would like answer from [MENTION=4148238]yiphoming[/MENTION] on how the fixes work and how they are implemented before I try.

So here is a strange development, I installed WiFi analyzer and it actually shows 5Ghz networks just not mine [emoji17] and to add to the confusion I have 3 other units at home that find my routers 5 GHz network just fine. So conclusion my router is sending 5Ghz WiFi, my phone can find 5Ghz WiFi but not the one from my router even if other units connect just fine to it.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] pierg75:

[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] nesquix:
Hey, i just tried...

you must have a external SDCARD in your phone or it will not works. because 1st time he do the backup on the computer (backup folder) but to restore it the script is looking on your phone external SD.

so first boot, not worked for me, after the bootanimation, black screen.

so i rebooted in recovery manually pluged the cable,, launched the "+½¦++¦+---¦½--+--++·.bat" file who is in the computer directory (i looked the code before, this file copy the partitionning informations backup in the external SD) and after that i relaunched the program/script/batch directy to step 2 because i already have the backup on the SD and it worked well.

i tried 4/5 times with some different size, and this is working. now... my system space is 7go (for example, i tried 7/6/8), but i'm affraid if something disapear.. like a fantom partition... i will check with Cyanogen

i'm just installing the last MOKEE now...(you can find it on (YDSS -> Z7), use google chrome to translate the page... if the download is too slow, use the 360 cinese application. you don"t need to create a account and you can dl the ROM faster than with a normal download!!
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Leo_83:
Then I can't do it yet, I have no SD card. Would you be able to do a step by step instruction. I feel a bit confused on what exactly needs to be done.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] pedrud:
LOL. :D I'm waiting for someone to try it. I have access to a mac, Linux, and a PC (albeit the latter is at work and I don't have admin rights) and I'm not sure which to use. I lean towards the Linux - for numerous reasons, besides just the obvious. I agree, I'm also waiting to hear back from [MENTION=4148238]yiphoming[/MENTION] about the fix. I was looking at my wifi too and was at a coffee house yesterday that had an excellent signal but kept giving me authentication errors; though the 5Ghz worked fine on my computer.

I forgot that you just got your phone until I looked a few pages back; so I can understand why you are waiting. I took a look yesterday at it via Gparted and disk manager and they both show it as a single partition of 10GB; I didn't have time to look into it further. I've read of people using Gparted to partition it, but I don't know how comfortable I feel about that yet. I'd rather do it from the CL, but am not sure about installing busybox as the other person posted a while back. As I understand it, when you connect it to a computer it unmounts the first partition and all you see is the second. Even looking at it via the CL I only saw the 10gb partition - it was listed as /sdb, not /sdb2 or something similar. Any thoughts about formatting it that way? By the way, thanks for your updates on the other thread.

---------- Post added at 01:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:26 PM ----------

Which 360 Chinese application are you referring to?
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] pierg75:
No worries, I'm keeping myself from resetting everything :D

I had a look at that script and it does just use parted to rebuild the partitions:

adb shell "parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpart userdata EXT2 2300MB %num%000MB</y"
adb shell "parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpart persist EXT2 %num%001MB %num%035MB</y"
adb shell "parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpart cache EXT2 %num%036MB %num%560MB</y"
adb shell "parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpart customfs EXT2 %num%561MB %num%710MB</y"
adb shell "parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpart fsg EXT2 %num%711000KB %num%712536KB</y"
adb shell "parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpart fsc EXT2 %num%714000000B %num%714001024B</y"
adb shell "parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpart ssd EXT2 %num%714002000B %num%714010192B</y"
adb shell "parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpart grow EXT2 %num%715MB %parsize%</y"

It then creates the file systems and that's it.

You could easily take all the commands manually and adjust them to your needs.

The 10G partition seems to be:

179 23 9883622 mmcblk0p23

Which is mounted:

/dev/block/vold/179:23 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0 texfat rw,dirsync,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,uid=1023,gid=1023,umask=0007,allow_utime=0020,codepage=437,iocharset=utf8,min_prealloc_size=64k,max_prealloc_size=9879520,readahead=512k,fail_safe,discard,hidden=show,errors=continue 0 0
/dev/block/vold/179:23 /mnt/secure/asec texfat rw,dirsync,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,uid=1023,gid=1023,umask=0007,allow_utime=0020,codepage=437,iocharset=utf8,min_prealloc_size=64k,max_prealloc_size=9879520,readahead=512k,fail_safe,discard,hidden=show,errors=continue 0 0

The /mnt/secure/asec texfat should be the space used for apps on the SD card (should be a cryptoloop device).

The script doesn't touch this partition.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] pedrud:
Brilliant! Cheers for taking the time to do that. LOL, now I don't have to. Your last point is interesting, in that, isn't that the section one would want to increase in size? Or is that the partition used when one decides to "Move app to SD" and in theory wants to decrease in size? Sorry, I just migrated to linux in the past 6 months after 25 years on a mac - a lot of stuff is easy to pick up, but I'm still learning some and having loads of fun. Happy to have changed. :victory:

Towelroot not rooting

Has anybody had a case of towelroot not rooting the phone. I downloaded the towelroot application referenced in the first post. Installed and clicked 'Make it rain'. The phone did not restart and said "you should have root and no reboot required". Then checked the status of the root using rootchecker. It said phone not rooted.

Repeated the above process using the towelroot posted by Cuoco in the androidiani forum as well. Same result. Restarted phone several times, uninstalled and installed several times. Still no rooting.

More interesting development, I had and still have problem getting connected to 3G on one of my sim cards on Mokee rom... But it seems it does connect to 4G. If gsm/wcdma selected I only get gsm but if I put it on gsm/wcdma/lte I get 4G, does that make any sense to anyone? And if course on Cuoco I had no problem connecting to 3G with the sim cards in the same positions/slots they are on now.

EDIT: So it actually does connect to 3G when on gsm/wcdma/lte, went on the subway and got in radio shadow and it connected to 3G. That would suggest that it is the settings for choosing gsm/wcdma doesn't work since I only get gsm. Also I don't seem to get more than gsm on sim slot 2 when I switch, no matter what I set it to, can someone running Mokee confirm that?

1. Go to "Settings" -> "Mobile Network" put sim 1 on gsm and sim 2 on gsm/wcdma/lte

2. Now go back into "Settings" -> "Multi-SIM" in there under "Data call" choose your sim 2.

Now it sim cards will be the card with the data plan. [emoji4]

Now I only have to figure out why the setting to use gsm/wcdma only doesn't work.
