CM 12.1 is working now.

It is not working good though. What I found is: the Wi-Fi password is resetting sometimes, the mobile network data is not working.

I have restored IMEI with Chamelephon and changed MAC address with ChameleMAC. There's notification about no SIM card in the status bar, but I can still call and receive calls.

Google Play Store and GMail are not closing anymore. Internal memory shows 12,58 GB.

I have succesfully installed CM 12.1 theme. The ROM comes with TWRP recovery so I have installed SuperSU and Xposed too.

Here are the links found on 4pda.ru (first download Gapps and copy to the SD card):

ECOO_E04_3GB_CM12.1_RC3.zip 423.2 MB

https://mega.co.nz/#!OglGBYTK!Upp_E6NpRLHtxQWMvGhCClo-b4zEciIlKGvl9elM0Uo

The ROM has to be installed with SP Flash Tool and Firmware upgrade option (Format all still makes the boot loop).

Gapps-5.1.1.zip 275.0 MB

https://mega.co.nz/#!6xVVgSiB!Ge5ua8BfRQBxzmew_D-Kd2nSVndzOYg99rQa-runNto

I have downloaded an app called KERNEL TOOLKIT that lets you control the settings and performance of your phone (I am sure you all know of this app already). I am going to test it out, tweak a few settings and see what happens to the battery usage on my phone. I will come back with the results soon just incase anyone is having the same issues with their battery life.

I've changed Governor from 'Interactive' to 'ondemand' and reduced the maximum frequency from 1690 mhz to 1287 mhz. There is also an option to change the Governor to 'power saving' mode but I will try the 'ondemand' settings first and see how it goes.
[Device Reviews and Information] stapo101:
Thanks for this. Does it support the finger print scanner yet?
[Device Reviews and Information] fourzero0:
No, Fingerprints app is missing again.
[Device Reviews and Information] stapo101:
I've been wondering how close the Ecoo E04 and the Elephone P6000 actually are.

When the first CWM recovery came out for use with the E04 it was in fact one created for the P6000. It says it right on the recovery screen. Also when I tried to flash something with it (and I can't recall what exactly) it gave me an error message saying that the phone I am using is not an Elephone p6000.

It may be that a p6000 ROM can mostly work on an E04. Maybe what we are seeing with the CM 12.1 ROM is either the p6000 ROM untouched or at the very least the p6000 ROM with very little modification to make it "work" on the E04. That's probably why it hasn't got the finger print support. It makes no sense for Ecoo to have produced a phone with a fingerprint scanner to then "officially" release a ROM that completely ignores it - unless that ROM was actually built for a different phone - the P6000. Just a theory.

Hi, I am using tesco UK and everything is working fine. For 3g I had to call up tesco and they sent me a text message with the 3g settings. You just click on the install button and the 3g will work.
[Device Reviews and Information] fourzero0:
Yes, I think it may be true.

The CM12.1 is in a testing stage, but I have no idea why they released it as the official one.

Here's a newer build: https://mega.co.nz/#!2pt2nJ7Y!joNNBzdY2NeWYwxj1P5NLqV55Y1VegxPCfXJdsXKrfo

Unfortunately yesterday's problems with mobile network and Wi-Fi still occur.
[Device Reviews and Information] lildwell:
Well you have to remember that they never released an official 5.0 rom yet. The others were just betas like these CM12 releases.

HI they cant send me a text because phone does not find the mobile network and I dont know to do how do you think it is something with the phone or with the sim card
[Device Reviews and Information] stapo101:
Google is your friend

Seriously, just google it "Tesco mobile APN settings android". This is the first link result that comes up and it has everything you need. Just go in to SETTINGS>>MORE>>MOBILE NETWORKS>>ACCESS POINT NAMES. Click on the big "+" symbol and type the settings in as per the below link. Then when saved, make sure your new settings are selected. You may need to then reboot or at least turn airplane mode on and then off.

It is debatable but I would have thought everything that gets posted on the ecoo.hk/download page should be considered "official". I just don't think Ecoo are very discerning when it comes to posting on there. Yes, that means that the current 20th May 5.0 ROM on there is "official" even though it's not worth the time downloading - and it's not even 5.0 it's CM12.1.

The first 5.0 ROM on there was labelled as BETA and then was removed quite quickly and replaced with a KitKat ROM. It was then subsequently replaced with the ROM from 30th April which was not labelled BETA. Personally I see no reason to consider the 30th April ROM as a BETA. It is much smoother and usable than the true BETA that went before it which was very buggy indeed. I suspect until the code is released by Mediatek we won't see another Ecoo made 5.0 ROM.

....and I would be amazed if we ever see an OTA kitkat to lollipop upgrade.
[Device Reviews and Information] lildwell:
That's understandable. I still just consider these to be betas since mediatek is still jerking around on their end. I've received ota updates before from these guys so who knows. The May ROM had bugs in it as well and just because it's in beta mode doesn't mean it's automatically a buggy mess. I also think that this is a beta because the kitkat rom is still available and is obviously the most stable imo. The phone isn't shipping with 5.0 either. I think that CM12.1 ported from P6000 and they are beta testing it to get the kinks out. Once it's stable they will add the fingerprint scanner back in. How many Chinese phones are officially running 5.1? This may be a way to separate the E04 from the Jiayu S3. But my guess is probably giving them waaaaayyyy to much credit.

I recently updated my ROM to the latest official KitKat version from ECOO. However, now my WiFi is constantly dropping and refusing to connect. 3g/4g works fine.

I'm on Android 4.4.4 (20150410) and I have the 3GB version.

I already did a wipe and reflashed the ROM but the problem remains.

Which ROM can you guys recommend me that might solve this problem?
[Device Reviews and Information] vikman53:
anyone knows how change the sound of unlocking screen ? i hate this sound ......

U can disable it (like I did).

If you want to replace, just replace unlock.ogg here: /system/media/audio/ui
[Device Reviews and Information] vikman53:
thx for reply , but if i want change it, how can i do ?

if i rename a mp3 file on unlock.ogg it works ? or we have doing conversion and if yes with witch app ?

[Device Reviews and Information] VinayakS:
You can not change the file extension and use it.

Im tired of this :(

Hello. I am noob in this things, im tired of reading and reading posts, but i cant find answer.

Today i tried to upgrade my ecoo plus to andoid 5(im in this loop for about 7 hours only today --')...downloaded the rom from the site then followed some instructions from theyr oficial site. Downloaded flashtool and drivers, but drivers were not compatible(or at least didnt work for me) with windows 8.1....so i made a partition and instaled windows 7 and did work with some errors.

Now i have a crappy android 5 from cyanmod and my sim works but it says i have no sim, google mail and play store keeps crashing, the camara app is very poor in functionality and i dont have fingerprint scaner app too.

Now i tried to install android 4.4 but now i have other problem both in windows 7 and 8...when i conect the ecoo without baterry, it acuses on the device manager, but only for about 5 seconds then disconnects again and i cant complete any process :/

Any suggestion? I saw some nice android 5 on ecoos in videos with all functionalities of android 4 plus the other new from the 5.

And i cant download the version4 from theyr site too...it goes to chinese site and i dont understand anything...even with google translator.

[Device Reviews and Information] danny30:
@ axelman - I am also using xposed and it seems to take about 4 hours to charge overnight. Not such a problem unless my phone dies in the day and I can charge for 30mins and be lucky to get a 10% charge. I don't have gravity module, does that make the phone charge quicker?

[MENTION=1925179]lide[/MENTION]well - I am actually using the charger that I used with my old Samsung s3 mini. Can't be any worse than the stock charger I assume.

I have tested with several chargers, with 2Amp charger too, no use.
[Device Reviews and Information] danny30:
Yes, it charges a lot slower than my previous phones. Does anyone know why ecoo has designed the phone in this way? I am struggling to understand the thinking behind it.
[Device Reviews and Information] lildwell:
When I had my S3 someone mentioned that it's less stressful to the battery to charge it slowly so it extends its life. It took my S3 4 to 5 hours to charge.

Unfortunately, ECOO E04 accepts maximum of 1A during charges.

I already tried using my 2A charger (that came with a Samsung Tablet) and the cell goes only up to 1010 mah.

With the stock charger it reaches 980 mah.

So, there isn't much to improve using a different (and more powerful) charger.

I ran these tests using the free apk AMPERE

[Device Reviews and Information] lildwell:
Use root explorer and follow what he said. System, then media.
[Device Reviews and Information] AliAzizi97:
Forget about the battery part. The battery has to be in when you do this. People only said that so you were sure your phone was completely turned off.

I think someone else had your sort of problem before and I helped them out. Look at post 400 (on page 40) for the link and follow the instructions.

If you still have problems with your phone being found by the computer install PDAnet A180.

Hope everything works out well :)

Install Ecoo with 3gb android 5

DAMN FINALLY XD

I did it.

So to share MY procedure FOR windoes 8.1...dont know if its the same in others:

This WILL ERASE EVERYTHING!! Make some backup or whatever. AND this is for the 3GB version...but you can take other roms for the 2gb

NOTE: For windows above 7, you need first to go Settings-Change Pc Setting-Update and recovery-recovery-advanced startup

You will reboot and then click : troubleshoot-advanced options-startup settings-restart

This will let you install non oficial drivers...in this case the MTK drivers.

1st-install usb deview and uninstall all mediatek drivers if you have any

2nd: Take battery OUT and connect to pc. If needed , as you plugin the usb, maintain the + volume button pressed. I will install some things.

3rd: download needrom.com/download/all-mtk-usb-driver-2014/ and extract the folder "New inst. win 7&8x64"

4th: Go to device manager and connect again the phone(battery OUT). In my case it was conecting and disconecting so in the 5 seconds that is connected, in the device manager i clicked on the option that appears then chose :update drivers software-browse my computer for driver software-let me pick from a list...-have disk-browse. Then go for the folder you extracted before and click on "android_winusb.inf".

5th: Go here androidxda.com/smart-phone-flash-tool and download the latest version flash tool

6th(THIS PART ONLY APPLIES IF YOU SCREWED UP LIKE ME AND NEEDED TO GO FROM 0 TO HAVE ALL ORIGINAL FUNCTIONALITY): Go here needrom.com/download/ecoo-e04-3g-ram/ and download android 4.4.4 one of the first 3 options

IF you still have the original 4.4.4 then just go here needrom.com/download/ecoo-e04-2/ and download ECOO E04 V5.0 LOLLIPOP and extract

7th:Run with administrative privileges flash_tool.exe:

1st case were you still have 4.4.4:In scatter loading chose the mtk skater file from android 5 rom that was previously downloaded and is located in BIN folder. Chose Firmware upgrade , click download AND then you connect the phone WITH battery.

2nd case(MY CASE were i screwed up and i wanted to erase everything because was to buggy)

Go to format click "auto format flash" and "format whole flash except bootloader" Then click start and THEN you connect the phone WITHOUT battery.

After that go to "download" , in scatter loading chose the mtk scatter file from the BIN folder then chose "download only"option and only check the preloader file. Then click download and conect WITHOUT batery the phone.

Afet that is done, you can check the others files click download and conect the phone again THIS TIME WITH BATTERY.

Now you have android 4.4.4 with factory rom , all original apps and functionalities . If you want android 5 just follow hte 1st case option after that :)

I hope this helps someone and if anyone knows any shortcut or maybe see some wrong options selected , correct me :)

But i did exactly like this and i have android 5 with all functionalities.

Cya :cool:

Okay, so I have viper 4 android installed and have bought new midrange earphones and the sound has improved but the volume is still too low. Does anyone know a way to make the volume higher with earphones/headphones (an additional option on V4A or maybe an app)?
[Device Reviews and Information] stapo101:
First thing to do is increase the volume for headset to max (160) via mtk engineering mode.

Then, in Viper4Android make sure in settings>>ui settings select "expert" this will give more options. On the headset settings scroll down all the way to the bottom and find "output gain" under "master gate" and set it to "6.0db". This will give you a significant volume gain. If this still isn't enough then set everything to max in the graphic equalizer.

All of this should give you plenty of volume to play with.
[Device Reviews and Information] Axelman8:
Hey Danny

You need the "Engeneer" mode for mtk

With this option, you can set the hardware like speaker and headset volume.

! It will get louder, NOT better !

Search for mtk engeneer mode, you will find many options to choose from to get there.

Hi, does anyone have problems with the keyboard? I got the phone in my hands a week ago and I'm facing this weird nerve-wrecking problem from day one.

When I try to type with the phone in the upright position the lower row of letters (shift z x c v b n m backspace) they don't respond correctly and typing the letters from the upper row (a s d f g h j k l), but it works fine when in horizontal position.

I did install and tried another keyboard (Swiftkey), after I've contacted the seller (Etotalk) and they suggested it, with the same results. Did try a touch tester App (YAMTT) and the screen responds fine except some times in that lower part area (only in left & right side about 1cm above the corners) even I touch with only one finger it shows two touch points very close to each-other. Now the seller suggests a Factory Reset but 'cause I'm a total newbie (this is my first smartphone) I'm not sure what to do and how.

I did a lot of reading about how to backup and later restore if something goes wrong but I got confused and I'm not sure I understood all the info correctly.

So if someone would take the time to guide me step by step would be much appreciated. The phone came unlocked and rooted with some Apps pre-installed and I'm afraid that if I mess it up I will not be able to correct it.

Thanks for your time.
[Device Reviews and Information] Axelman8:
Hey,

This could be the digitizer romchip (touchpanel glass over the lcd) not having the correct driver or maby it is damaged.

I know from experience that this could be working better if you flash a genuine ecoo ROM. You can find it on Needrom.com and in this thread there are many, many very detailed and usefull handouts how to flash a rom.

This rom flash will install and update your device and probably the digitizer romchip too.

Worth to try

Goodluck
