[MENTION=5238428]superdragonpt[/MENTION] : I keep 'liking' some of your posts as you can verify for yourself. Congratulations.

But you seem to reveal something here, can you answer: do you (yes/no) have access to mtk/jiayu code?

Please reply (you just need 2 or 3 characters to type :) yes/no, please do!)

If you do not reply fair enough!: I assume yes (3 characters) : you cannot reply due to some NDA,

if so, do not even bother PM me. I respect NDA, I live with it all my life.

just trying...

hehe. actually, this is the 1st phone that i tried using without a screen protector. my last one, the samsung gs3 - since 2012, still alive & kicking, great build & quality, it fell a lot of times. it has a flip cover & a screen protector (not tempered). the screen is still intact. now, im just trying to use without it. i just like the feel of directly touching the screen itself. slippery. but, ill use it eventually. hehe. thanks! over all, great phone!
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] superdragonpt:
Yes.

Check older thread posts.

I can't talk about that work in specific, since it's hosted on another site outside XDA, and it's not in compliance with GPL, so, can't be published here on xda.

And please don't talk about that work here, or, the thread may be closed...

(I already explained why, not my fault, not DerTeufel1980 fault, not Jiayu Fault )

And in the same line, check the others OEM's Case:

http://bbs.elephone.hk/thread-3435-1-1.html#.VYNp-ta4VpQ

One of the major Elephone's staff, talked about the same GPL/Source code Issue:

""There is a Problem with the license from MediaTek.

If you want to have the source code, you have to pay.""

We are in mid 2015, and Mediatek still have issues with their code / GPL

Despite all the news, that they are becoming OpenSource friendly ( i would like to know where ?)

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] kenturky:
Yes that's because you're flashing the ROM files while the phone is off. So that needs different drivers. It's flashmode drivers. And you haven't installed them. Vcom files are the drivers. Once you install the vcom drivers, switch the phone off, take off the battery, insert it again, press the download button, connect the phone via USB without powering on the device, and if you see "installing driver software" then you'll realize that the ROM is getting flashed or the recovery is getting flashed. And finally you will be successful.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] DerTeufel1980:
That's not an official store.... You also could have asked your neighbors [emoji14]

And there is gyroscope.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] superdragonpt:
Yes not an official store indeed.

Enyone can buy a similar domain i.e.: Jiayu-superstore.com or whatever ...

:silly:

@ those who talked about the screen:

I advice you to get tempered glass ...

... It can help you save your screen (i broke one already ...)

for some bucks (or euros) it's totally worth it

Elephone P8000 maybe?

I've seen on XDA post that Elephone will release sources for their P8000 (even rumors of giving away free phones for developers).

Cheers!

Edit: Sorry, not a post, but news!
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] staticx1:
Please notice that p7000's graphic card is better than the one inside p8000..

Mali T760 vs T720
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] sirdickens:
Jiayu S3 is the best, better then P7000, and way more better then P8000.

Butn I was just trying to answer superdragonpt what he was looking for :D

Cheers
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] superdragonpt:
Not!

Only for developers, so, "regular users" , wont have access to sourcecode = Also non-GPL compliance

Yeah, plus, p8000 is the new SoC MT6753 = MT6752 undervolted to 1.3GHz Octa <=> Less powerfull

Exposed framework installer works fine with latest S3S OTA update on KK 4.4.4. However for LL 5.1 seems we can't get a clear answer.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] wielkimogoł:
Hello, I'm a new Jiayu S3S user (since yesterday). I really like the phone, it's very responsive and finally I have something that doesn't feel too small (I have big hands ;))

I do have two questions though:

1) My current ROM version is S3SW 20150314-141844. Does it make sense to update to the last KitKat ROM and manually install Play Store, or is it too much hassle? Maybe should I wait for a stable 5.1 release and stay on the current ROM for now?

2) Does anyone have any experience with using both the silicone case and tempered glass at the same time? Will it even fit? Am I being overprotective? :D My silicone case (the original Jiayu one) is quite a tight fit and I'm worried another layer of glass might be too much.

Thanks in advance for any answers and thanks to all the people in this thread who devote their time to improve this phone :)

I have closed working with gravity box and greenufy working. Some modules cause bootloop so I don't even try others since I do my job with those two. In order to work I did set the SElinux to permissive instead of enforsive and format my SD card. It seems it keeps cache on the SD card and if you bootloop once with one ROM you bootloop with every. ( you can also try removing the SD installing xposed and then reinserting it)

The tempered glass screen protector fits fine with the silicone case.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] vitaminc3:
When I was in Shen Zhen and bought the S3 in the local store Jiayu Store, the guy gave me a tempered glass and a grey silicon case. Both fit nicely, its tight but its all covered up. I'm glad that I put it on since it fell down on a rock in the first week and thankfully only the tempered glass took some scratches. You actuallydon't see that there's a tempered glass on it if used with the silicon cover because its so tight.

Tried the superdragonpt 5.1 Rom yesterday and it works really nicely! The only bug that I noticed was the adaptive screen brightness thing, when active we can set the brightness to a lowest level, but it start to flickering the screen after a time, just disable it and start to work again. So far very smooth for a candidate release and I have highly expectations for the final version! Flashed back Kitkat, since I want Xposed and some other features not included on LL yet.

Great work [MENTION=5238428]superdragonpt[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4196889]DerTeufel1980[/MENTION], It's always a big idea to buy a device which you also you both own haha \o

Install flashify from the play store, unzip your image. Use flashify to flash the twrp.img file.

Orrrrrrrr. Get the jiayu.es app from the play store, use it to download and install their "official" twrp. It's easier, but I'm not a fan of their version. It is missing a couple of the partitions that 2.8.6.0 from needrom' can backup.

Hi folks, is xposed working for this rom?

I flashed xposed-sdk22-arm64-20150514.zip via the recovery from xposed alpha forum on xda. but after that, I keep getting a bootloop. any solutions? I can't live without xposed!
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] lolemenos:
You need to change selinux to permissive. You can search 3-4 pages back and find your solution
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Bantryred:
For xposed, best to install it straight after first flashing rom and gapps, and before first boot.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] clayts450:
Yes, I have exactly the same issue. I only use Deezer for my bus journey into and back from work (25 minutes), so I just change the screen off setting to 30 minutes, leave the Deezer app open and don't hit the power off. Obviously does affect battery life a little, but it's the only workround I've come up with so far. I suspect it is a Deezer issue.

There are some apps you can get which keep the screen alive, but these don't seem to work too well.

I suspect it's something to do with the phone sleeping, and not having the oomph to play the next song.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] K4cK:
So nice finally i get xposed framework to work :)

If you want it to work too, follow this instructions

1. Remove SDcard or format it

2. Install xposed arm 64 bit from TWRP

3. Boot up and it should boot after 2 bootloops

4. Install and use SELinux Mode changer apk to set SElinux to permisse

5. Install XposedInstaller

6. Have fun!

Edit: Stopped working after some reboots.. now its just bootlooping again :( because i installed more apps
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] kenturky:
damn :crying:

I flashed aosp tf rom along with dragon evil kernel. Whatsapp and some stuff still stores images pics and audo files in the internal memory. But 12GB should be enough to wait till a stable release of xposed is launched for android 5.1

I hope it is fully functional by next month, if not, then in the next 2 to 3 months. And apps should work perfectly on ART...
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] lolemenos:
well i guess next version will be the same on stability but will include some new features. 5.1 is pretty stable at the moment
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] Russell_S:
If anyone is looking for better control of the dual sim functionality on the Jiayu S3 I can thoroughly recommend the app 'Dual Sim Control' which is available in the Playstore. I have used this app on all the Mediatek based dual sim phones I have owned and it really does a great job of managing the two sims. I find it especially effective when using the phone hands free connected over Bluetooth in the car.

I did a full review of the app last year on XDA. You can find it here: http://xdaforums.com/android/genera...management-t2875940/post55420821#post55420821

There is a free version which I would recommend to see if it is useful to you but if you do find it is usefull I would recommend the full version.

Free version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pt.joaormf.mtkcontrol.free&hl=en

Full version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pt.joaormf.mtkcontrol

You can also upgrade the free version to the full version from within the app.

Which lollipop rom did you use? Because Superdragonpt's rom is flashable via sp flash tool only :/
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] lolemenos:
you can remove the sd card

re flash the v3 beta

boot your device.

download selinux changer from xdc

change the selinux from enforcing to permissive within the app you just downloaded

reboot recovery

install xposed 64 for lollipop 5.1 via custom recovery

and then install the app

you might seem to boot loop for 3-4 times but it's ok it won't happen again, it's just the initial boot

i haven't tried to do a dalvik wipe so i am not sure if wiping dalvik will cause you a boot loop

tell me if you have any problems

MobileUncle MTK Toolse does not work correctly on JiaYu S3 yet (probably MT6752 platform has not yet fully supported).
