It's just replacing libstagefright.so

From my testing it can be applied to all kitkat roms.

There's no cm for s3 yet. I get stuck on kernel splash. May take some time. Probably caused by 64 bit, cause there does not seem to be any cm rom for any cortex a53 device.

Cm is going to be available for g4s, g5s, s2 and probably g6 and f2 soon.

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] 1testi:
Looks like a problem with the driver. So first of all, tell us the Windows Version you are using. You can search for you own on Goggle

"Driver installation for Jiayu S3". Hope this helps.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] :
Thanks!

I turned off MMS auto-retrieve on stock messages, google messenger and google hangouts but still S3 stock LP gets reported vulnerable. I can also choose titanium backup as SMS app but I don't know how to turn off MMS auto-retrieve there. But, what is strange is that my S4 CM LP had and still has all these settings turned on and is not reported vulnerable. Perhaps even more strange is that my Z2 CM LP is reported vulnerable even after turning settings off. I guess one also needs the source code patched as derteufel mentiones. But how the app detects this is not very clear. I slightly doubt if detection is universally consistent.

isn't there a cm 12.1 for the elephone p7000? or is its mt6752 not a cortex a53?
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] justnewsp:
The vulnerability is deep inside Android. Not all deivces/Androis, but some.

Disabling MMS auto-retrieve does not remove the vulnerability.

It just make it harder for a hacker to exploit this vulnerability.

The vulnerability detector does not read MMS settings, but it searches for the bug inside Android code.

Guys is there a method to flash the FW via fastboot / adb?

I don't know is there is a flashtool equivalent for the mac?

(I could perhaps follow the tutorials posted above by using a VM)

Cheers
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] 1testi:
Ok, everythings works fine. Now comes the trick...and its really tricky. Open the device manager, leave it in the foreground and watch it good. Now plug in S3 with battery. The trick is that you will see the change in the device manager for a very short time, may be under 1 s, only. The new entry in device manager is "Aux&Com........". If you click on it there is one entry under it, which i can´t remember the name.

Now right click that entry and select properties........and cool down. You have all the time you need now.

Again, the trick is, that all of this happens very quick, so you have to be very quick too. For me it tooked about 20-30 times to reach that entry!!

But...there is always a but. First of all you have to download the VCOM Driver, like Komagain posted you and unpack it. Second you have to boot Win 8.1 to start without Driver signification. You can see it here: [URL="www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRggtyNnxtI[/URL]

Now comes the trick with all the fast clicking till properties. Now, after clicking properties you see driver update/refresh. Click on it. Win ask you, where to search, choose Computer and point on the unpacked VCOM Driver in the win 8 folder.......Done ...puuuuuhhhh.

tell the truth i keep a dell gx620 running win7 pro just to flash phones i have a much newer machine running win 8 which dont seem to like flashing phones ,what i'm saying is find someone with a pc running win7 load the drivers and see if that machine can see it if not maybe its your phone that needs repair
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] 1testi:
Even if everything is installed properly as decribed above you won´t "see" the S3 in device manager.

The VCOM Driver is for SPFlashtool only. If the driver is installed correctly SPF will work fine.

If you want to "see" the S3 in the device manager you need to install a different

driver, for example with win 8.1 "Aliyun, Inc. - Other hardware - YunOS ACB Interface" from Windows Update.

But........you remember? ;)) ....i never used both drivers together, only the VCOM. If i want to "see" my S3 i use

Linux.;)

There wont be OTA from kk to LP.

Too many changes on The file/part system

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] superdragonpt:
OnePlus is not MTK.

The partition table used by MTK (and the way they implemented), doesn't allow some things to be done via simple OTA, plus, there's a lot of changes from kk (mtk) source --> new LP5.1(AOSP Based MTK) source ...

This is one of those things, it's hard to explain to someone "outside".

Not sure if comparison with Oneplus is correct - as far as i know it is not a MTK device...
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] guido21:
Nevermind, I was just poking fun at oneplus. I'm impressed with this device considering it cost me less than half of what I paid for my oneplus one. I've been using the last LL build since it was released and after a few tweaks I'm quite happy with it. Not sure if I can go back to KK now, after using LL, it kind of feels a bit dated. :)

Keep up the good work!
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] hariklis:
Just to confirm that i also flashed the stagefright fix via TWRP and opened the green light. Good work guys!

Also, i wanted to ask if anyone else noticed an apk(?) installed by itself, called "hen". It came out of nowhere (just like "recents" a few days ago) and i dont know what it does. I froze it from the settings of the ROM
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] AlexZap:
there is no method to flash via fastboot with mtk phones as far as i am aware of. if you have a custom recovery such as TWRP and someone has put a ROM out there based on that, you can use that to flash, but there will be no way to move from kitkat to lollipop with a TWRP backup/ROM.

there is no flashtool or equivalent for mac, but in this world you have many options: 1) you could make a bootable USB key with linux on it and run the linux version of flash tool, you could dual boot your mac with a linux or with windows and run flashtool that way, or you could try the VM route, but i have no idea if flashtool works inside a VM. i, personally, have a chromebook and do 90 percent of my heavy duty work in a chroot, which is sort of like a VM, but not really (there is no visualization/abstraction... as ChromeOS is already Linux based... whereas your mac is *BSD based.)

Anyone on 5.1 could you point me in the direction of getting CM12 themes installed.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] genesisalgor:
If you're running the latest 27/07 NewUi ROM, you just need to search "CM12 themes" in play store and install, after choose the themes in the Theme APP. Btw the implmentation is far from perfect, but still cool, have in mind that isn't a Aosp ROM so some themes can seems strange, most in the settings APP.

I'm not saying that is OK to do (provide something for free that actually costs money), but look at how easily you can find "free" windows online....

And windows has some protections, activation keys and so on.

How can they protect an Android version from being copied and offered for free ?

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] vagelisss:
I definitely was not implying that you were trying to advertise this. It is completely clear that you wouldn't buy it from the original post.

All I am saying is that since the forum is made for rom sharing for free , and discussion on rom development and phones/tablets we should be more careful as members if someone is trying to do the same in a paid way and not advertise him/her here.

Jiayu.de if am not wrong has done this in the past again and links have been removed from the moderators. Please correct me if I am mistaken...

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] haasgo:
Actually the link was posted by a user ranting about it. No jiayu.de member ever advertised here.

As this would include server and hosting costs as well as manpower and maintaining the rom I find it reasonable. As devs spend hours on development its just a fraction of their actual salary they would get for doing it on a payroll basis.

Take it or leave it. Easy as that :)

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] :
Since, apparently, you are in close enough contact with jiayu and mediatek to be able to build S3 firmware and kernel from source, would you consider to kindly keep on asking them if your and their code and build instructions may be published, say, on github? Then, people can build and adjust the software themselves.

For g4s, g5s, g6 and s2, I just used stock kernel.

I only use one slot in Phoenix, AZ and seems to work fine although I only get 3G now.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] generalgoran:

[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] elkosith:
I think I read someone wrote 4g doesn't work in US

That's what I thought too, but then I realized dual 4G means TD and FDD, not both sims support 4G. So there are no false advertisings here
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] haasgo:
No, I have an email from jiayu hq saying/confirming, that both sim slots have all bands on both slots. BUT you will not know, cause data is only on one sim active. Just switch your data connection to sim 2 and you should get same results. Please check if the s3 even supports your demanded bands!
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] elkosith:
Ok I just switched my sim to the second slot and checked the band modes. It turned out the second slot does support 4G. Currently I'm using the second sim slot and I get 3G network. My operator's 4G is on band 8, so it's not supported by the S3.

Sweet! The stock ROM is already good for me. I don't think I'll be changing ROM before the custom ROMs are stable and bug free, and have features that are not available in stock ROM.

I don't know if the phone works like the way you describe it or not because currently I only have 1 micro sim, so I'm unable to test both slots on the same time.

Is 4G for your sim needs to be enabled first, or it's already enabled?

If it's enabled, have you tried the sim on other phones?

MediaTek has been showcasing their MT6753 chipset that has World LTE/4G coverage, so if Jiayu brings out a version with that SoC in a S3 then you'll be able to use that phone with 4G/LTE in USA. So that's MT6752 vs MT6753 to get World 4G/LTE..

---------- Post added at 03:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:16 AM ----------

Possibly here http://www.needrom.com/category/jiayu/s3-jiayu/ , but they don't have ColorOS. Be cautious though.
[JiaYu S3 Questions & Answers] haasgo:
To set things straight: this phone is a dual-standby phone! There is no possibility to use data on both sim slots at the same time! Also: when you have enabled data on one sim, the other will ONLY use 2G for voice calls. You can change sims as you wish. Both slots use the same bands.

Please check if you have the wcdma bands enabled. Also: check if your APN settings are right. You need to set the right values to be able to connect to your carriers network. Even if 4G works, you will not be able to connect to any network if your APN settings are not correct. It should be possible to just copy them from your old 4G phone.
