Does anyone have steps on how to update the operating system on this phone?

I really think it has some decent hardware specs and good price.

If it gets updated to a more recent android version it would be nice.
[Android General] RASTAVIPER:
All specs are fantastic.

The most important thing for me is if it will get update to KK (Lollipop is out of the question) and if GPS is locking satellites fast, cause most chinese phones have problem with that matter.

Unbox/Comparison

Found this review on youtube, posted by a reviewer by the username 'mayiandjay'.

Jay unboxes the Kolina 100+, however still waiting on his actual review, but I've been interested in getting this phone too. A few things to be aware of that he mentions is that some these specs may be faked, (i.e. front camera megapixels).

Amazing

This is the cheapest octa core phone with 1080p screen and 2gb ram. Just pure awesomeness :good: Correct me if im wrong but it is possible to flash a custom recovery on this phone right?
[Android General] RASTAVIPER:
You don't buy a phone only because it's cheap.

Having old OS or don't knowing if there will be support for custom recovery and Rom is a deal breaker.

[Android General] paix_keeper:
Exactly! Given I'm a flashaholic myself :highfive: That's why I'm asking whether it's possible to get custom recovery installed :confused: Still I can see this device being perfect for someone like my girlfriend who doesn't appreciate all the custom roms and mods I'm doing for her nexus 4 :silly:

I just need instructions on how I can install stock Kitkat or lollipop on this phone.

Because out of all the specs, the display brightness and operating system version is the only thing I see that may turn me off from purchasing.
[Android General] RASTAVIPER:
Did u got it?
[Android General] shogrran:
No :( I'm new to this.

I am waiting for some good guy to post his.
[Android General] shogrran:
I found a site which offers the k100+ offers a pre-install of some "rom" (etotalk mod rom???)

I have no idea what it is... but doesn't this mean it's possible to install stock android kitkat(or lollipop on this thing? )
[Android General] RASTAVIPER:
Give us the link and we can answer you.
[Android General] shogrran:
I was about to. But since I'm new to this forum they won't allow me to post a link

The site is the main site for etotalk
[Android General] RASTAVIPER:
Ok found the product page from Etotalk.

Don't pay attention to them.

Since there is still no official 4.4 version out, there is no way that Etotalk can offer a better Rom.

I only hope that soon there will be the official release.
[Android General] shogrran:
What I was hoping for is that since etotalk seems to have a way of installing their own rom, shouldn't someone be able to install stock android on the device? (or does that how it works?)
[Android General] Rake74:
It looks like the brightness on the Kolina K100 (170$) is not so great. Therefore I'm doubting between this one and Cubot X9 (140$)

or perhaps I will wait for the Dakele 3 (270$)

Service state: radio off, IMEI null, Baseband unknown, no efs folder

Hello,

I've bought this phone second hand, the previous owner did the factory reset and when I tried to insert my SIM card, it was not recognized by the system, therefore I cannot receive calls or messages. I started searching, tried various things - flashed different ROMs, official and custom, I tried the MTK Droid Tools method, Engineering mode method, Imei.exe method but without success. I have also seen that it could be cuz of the corrupt EFS folder and indeed when I go search in the Root Explorer, there is no such folder.

I am desperate ! Any ideas what could be the problem? Also on the box, I've seen only one IMEI, not 2.

Thanks for your help!

PS. I am totally new to this, spent almost a week trying to fix this, so if I am saying something stupid, please forgive me!!!

Did u try swapping the sims around? And if u did and have the same result, u'r problem is not in the efs folder, but u'r sim card lost it's IMEI, and that should be an easy fix :)

Btw, when u turn on u'r phone and it tries to register to the network, does it say something? (consider that it might take up to 5 mins to get the error)
[Android General] valsofijanic:
Hey, thanks for answering, nah it says Radio off, IMEI is invalid, I only get the Network unavailable sign, with an "x" and sometimes it tells me "insert sim" as if i hadn't done so (tried different sim cards). I tried swapping but nothing happens...also i tried to recover IMEI but it keeps on saying "IMEI: invalid" and on MTK Droid Tools I get the error message: pttycmd1 device not found..

:(
[Android General] Alexx890:
Try doing this : https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=B40C2hoxn8U

Similar thing happened to me after getting my second sim card, but it's all fixed now. If u don't know u'r IMEI, try putting 111111111111111 for sim 1 and 222222222222222 for sim 2

my perfect KOLINA

Hi guys, I am new here. Sorry if I am repeating other threads, I don't read the all forum.

I don't want to ask things, I want to HELP all of you !!

I have this phone from January, and it is very good for this money. But the original ROM was annoying. I changed the ROM and it is tested almost for 4 month.

1- I have full access to backpad, with programming possilbilty !! (I can start and stop a lot of apps)

2-my phone works perfect with 2 SIM cards !

3-it is absolutely "Google Free" and probably for this reason I have to charge the battery on every 5th day!!!!( if you belive or not....)

4-the GPS ,the camera,the flash LED ...etc. works perfectly.

5- it is rooted, no lags, no freezing...etc

Bad things: some chinese characters appears when I dialing (not really annoying), only two languages are available (english and chinese)

My ROM is the original Baidu Cloud OS V6 (it is not available now on the official page :(( )

im very happy to day guys :D i find the way to disable back pad on kolina stock rom end im sure work for any rom, so i try to explane in my bad english to help other pepole.

so first open you file manager

1. go to device/sys

2.the easy way is search for enable_backtouch. (the other hard way is to go in folder manual so go: sys/devices/platform/mt-i2c.2/i2c-2/2-002c end here you find the enable_backtouch)

3. open it as text end you find write only 1 so this number just make it zero 0 this is it save close back touch no work any more for ever :D im eat many hours to find this end im very happy if help others too

this way need you have root access in your phone end r/w in your file manager too , me use es explorer file manager to make this work . i hope help you ;)

I tried the note3 that I found at htcmania forum, but now the mobile is stuck at the booting screen.

I cannot copy other roms to flash them.

Any solutions?
[Android General] RASTAVIPER:
Bravo Frosh for your courage to write analytically all these different steps that you have tried.

I don't know if this will work for you, but in my case and when I was trying to install other roms and I had some problems, only the flashing of stock rom did the job through the SP tools.

So I would propose that you try to flash the stock rom again with this tool.
[Android General] Froschface:
Alright... I am downloading the Stock ROM now and will give it a try. Even though I am not very hopeful.

In case somebody else is looking for the Stock ROM (the no-backpad version): you can get it from here.
[Android General] Froschface:
Reporting back:

adb sideload stock.zip
serving: 'stock.zip' (~63%) *failed to read command: No error

In TRWP (after activating adb sideload) I see this:

Starting ADB sideload feature...
Installing ' /sideload/package.zip'...
--TANG-100+6V-100CW-
Installing system files...
Updating Boot
..OK..OK..
Done! Reboot!

When I then click on reboot it will show me "No OS installed! Are you sure you wish to reboot?"

If I reboot I end up with the 100+ logo from where nothing will happen anymore.

If I try flashing the stock ROM via USB OTG:

Starting ADB sideload feature...
Installing ' /sideload/package.zip'...
--TANG-100+6V-100CW-
Installing system files...
Updating Boot
..OK..OK..
Done! Reboot!
Updating partition details...
[COLOR="Red"]E: unable to mount '/system'
E: unable to mount '/cache'
E: unable to mount '/data'[/COLOR]
... done

So yeah... flashing stock didn't help. The problems persist.

Anybody having any ideas?
[Android General] RASTAVIPER:
Did you try to flash all Rom's files with sp tools as I mentioned before?

For me, this was the only way to get a working device.
[Android General] Froschface:
Yes, I tried. But, as I said, SP Flash Tool does not react to the plugged in device. After starting with clicking on "download" I plug the switched off device in but it only turns on the device and SP Flash Tool does not recognize the phone and does not show any activity.

I have this smartphone by 2 or 3 weeks! The phone is amazing... has a good display!

Please give us an Antutu score and also more information about battery autonomy.

How long does it last after full charge and with what use.

Unleashed by my Nexus 4
[Android General] VitalieTurcanu:
The Antutu score is around 31.641 ! But this score i obtained after that i rooted the phone....without root the score was 29200 ....so i unistalled the programs that in my opinion have no sense to keep it !

The battery autonomy is good....but i desired a greater capacity....in my opinion the battery is arround 2800-3000 mAh not more ! With a normal usage of the phone (calls,and some browsing the battery lives one day and more, for example i used only for calls and the result was 2 days and some hours) but the intensive usage of the phone takes down the battery in 5-6 hours ! Sincerly i havn't try to play all the time a game or a video to see how much time will the battery live but i think 4-5 hours of Real Racing 3 and the battery is down !

The GPS is working ok....i used navigation and i can say that navigation is good !

Bluetooh is woking ok i transfered some files from the old phone to this one so the bluetooh ok !

I like a lot the display is really good ! I made a review on youtube so when i have the posibility to post a link i will do it !

Have i nice day guys ! Some other questions?
