cant find bootclasspath of ulefone be pro

i tried to port EMUI 3.0 in my ulefone be pro but when i check the init.rc of ulefone there is no bootclasspath. i cant copy the bootclasspath of EMUI to stock boot.img
[Android General] bigrammy:
The bootclasspath is contained in the init.environ.rc

I noticed that lewa and probably mui seem to still use the older style having it at the head of the init.rc instead of calling the init.environ.rc :confused:

So just edit your stock init.environ.rc accordingly ;)

I have a similar problem porting ColorOS to the Umi Hammer none of my buttons seem to work :eek:

They are all working and register correctly when I use "getevent" so why they do not register on the ui is weird :confused:

I will let you know if I find the answer :laugh:
[Android General] brabagul:

Cant Connect to camera

Guys, can someone help me how to fix camera? i tried replacing all libcam files from stock to port but still the same

LOGO/Off-Mode charging Switch

Only tested with Vibe UI - reports from other ROM particularly ones using the Just5 Blaster kernel are welcome

Pretty self explanatory:

Add the line ro.boot.battery=ele or ro.boot.battery=lenovo to /system/build.prop

Reboot to recovery

Flash the attached zip .

The Lenovo off-mode charging is more functional than the Elephone one; it has the date/time shown and may have an on screen power button (may work with off-screen gesture kernel). Thanks to [MENTION=6045217]milankumarn[/MENTION] for the logo.bin from Lenovo.

Reports from other ROMS other than VibeUI are welcome - I'm unsure if there are any other needed libs to use the Lenovo logo with other ROMs.

Edit. V2

Added a few more options:

ro.boot.battery=just5 ; thanks to [MENTION=5172169]NiksSkersts[/MENTION]

ro.boot.battery=reboot ; bypasses the battery logo and makes the phone reboot instead

ro.boot.battery=charge ; undo's reboot - returns to default behaviour
[Android General] german_psycho:
Would you recommend to update to a Lollipop rom at the moment? Are they stable enough?

I read at the Elephone forum that the 5.0 Vibe is the most stable Lollipop rom yet for the P6000.

Is it worth the hassle to update, or should I stay a little longer on 4.4.4??

I think there should be a speed improvement on Lollipop, as it supports the 64bit. But what is speed if the rest of the Rom is too buggy? ;)
[Android General] HypoTurtle:
Honestly the only unstable 5.0 ROM was the very first one released in February. The 'bugs' that other people are reporting are typically from not installing correctly; perhaps not wiping sdcard etc. and reporting things that aren't included in AOSP as bugs.

Official AOSP 5.0 is solid; only noticeable issue is that the screen will glitch occasionally, I think this is a RAM issue - Forcing GPU rendering fixed it for me (and I think there's a few reports from others that this corrected the issue).

You will need to install this before installing Vibe so play around with it for a while.

I've just switched from the first Vibe ROM to the latest - which looks a lot more like AOSP - with the added benefit of installing to external sdcard.

Things you may lose upgrading to 5.0:

OTG - with powered usb - this hasn't been included in the 5.0 kernel at all

4G - although apparently formatting all when installing fixes this: unsure why this is (might be from formating nvram) and can't test as don't have 4G coverage so can't check if I have lost/gained 4G support.

If you are going to install - make sure you backup both nvram and parameter.ini with Maui META.

And if you have the time I would backup all the other 'hidden partitions' that aren't included in the Stock ROM - you probably won't need them but are handy just to have - there are 20 partition in total (counting the ones included in the StockROM); most are actually blank though - I've lost my backups so can't check. They are useful to have incase you want/need to Format All & Download in SPFlash as you can restore them after.
[Android General] bigrammy:
Great Advice bro :good:

4G worked perfectly for me and I never had issues like losing my imei numbers sim detection etc so I can only assume this is user error or hardware problems such as a bad or cheap USB lead, crappy pc or people simply not following the instructions given. :rolleyes:
[MENTION=3803289]german_psycho[/MENTION]

Coming from 4.4.4 KK to 5.0 Lollipop is a FIRMWARE UPGRADE and that needs selecting from the dropdown menu in SPflashtool the default is Download so be sure to change it to Firmware Upgrade. :good:

When doing the firmware upgrade ensure no other tasks are running on the pc and you have all good connections and you run the flashtool as administrator ;)

As HypoTurtle as said it's always a good idea to have a full backup of your phone regardless of what you are doing. :good:
[Android General] greekfragma:
Hello guys. Sorry for my absence but I am really busy in real life. I am keeping an eye on the P6000 threads and I really appreciate all your efforts made.

From my experience the last month all I can say is that the best rom for P6000 is the latest Vibe 2.5 posted on elephone forum by mystory here

http://bbs.elephone.hk/thread-4730-1-1.html#.VWvgk8-qpBc

I see that he just posted a new one released today with some serious fixes.

1. Based on 150527 increase SIM2 support 3 g / 4 g network (SIM 1 and SIM 2 support 3 g \ 4 g networks)

2. The revised battery percentage

3. The shutdown charging icon mismatch repair

4. Add usbhostcheck. Apk hope OTG function can be used
[Android General] german_psycho:
Thanks for sharing your experience.

So, I'm gonna flash Android 5 to the phone of my wife tonight. Hope everything goes well. But not that much can happen, I just made a backup of my data/system and NVRAM via TWRP, so if everything fails I can go back to 4.4.4.

Just one last question: I think I'd like to try the Vibe rom. I read that I first have to flash the official lollipop rom and then flash Vibe over it. So far, so good.

When an update to Vibe comes out (seems every few days at the moment), can I just flash the update or do I have to do a complete erase/factory reset every time??
[Android General] macanoid:
Is the phone worth buying in this price range?

I'm very close to getting enough money for this phone. I just have a few questions:

1. how is the screen? is it responsive enough? does it have any special glass like gorilla?

2. i wanted to order it from to2c. is english language pre-installed? are there any bugs with original software that comes with phone? (im not keen on installing lollipop yet. using 4G is also not an option since im not on a payment plan)

3. how does it perform regarding 3D games?

thanks in advance!
[Android General] greekfragma:
After you flash the Vibe and for any other Vibe updated rom you just flash with SPflashtool with the option ticked as (Firmware upgrade). Nothing to reset or erase since the updated rom files do not mess with anything else but just system :)

If your budget can go up to 160euros i suggest you go for the Lenovo K3 note. This is a decent phone for the price but I am not happy with Elephone support and roms. Only thing that gives the P6000 the meaning to get it, is the people on xda struggling to fix any bugs found.

So either P6000 and xda support or Lenovo K3 note at the next higher budget step.
[Android General] macanoid:
So, Lenovo K3 has less bugs than P6000?
[Android General] greekfragma:
its a total different device man. 8core 64bit instead of 4core 64bit P6000.

Better camera (real 13mpx and not 8mpx interpolated like P6000) and camera software

Official Vibe UI 2.5 based on 64 bit Lollipop from Lenovo that gives you the right to have proper official support on bugs except the xda guys efforts.

Better screen FullHD 1080p 5.5 inch instead of 5inch 720p of P6000.

and all the above for an extra of 50euros. I have made my decision to give my P6000 and go for the K3 note the sooner possible.

If I were you, I wouldn't think it twice.

But here is the P6000 section so lets not thread hijack again. Go to Lenovo section and ask there.
[Android General] HypoTurtle:
[MENTION=622119]greekfragma[/MENTION] - the Vibe ROMs aren't SPFlash ROMs but recovery ROMs.

But essentially greekfragma is right - no need to wipe anything with the updates (mystory is releasing full ~1GB (compressed size) ROMs but you can just install over the previous in custom recovery.

[MENTION=6731791]macanoid[/MENTION] as greekfragma said if you wan't something to compare the K3 Note / A7000-a to then you'd be better off comparing to a device with the same chipset (i.e. Jiayu S3 etc. ). In terms of elephone - this SoC would mean the P3000s - which spec-wise is better than the P6000 but the number of viable custom ROMs seems to be much greater at the moment with the P6000 (#54).
[Android General] xenonism:
I just updated to the Lollipop Vibe ROM - nice and fast, but I have a couple of questions:

- the pictures it takes are an eyesore. I am aware of the KitKat fix, but is there anything for Lollipop to improve the quality a bit?

- is there any new way to control the notification LED (still obsessed with that, yeah)?

- is there any way to avoid left hardware button presses being hijacked by the task manager (and go to the foreground app instead)?

Thanks in advance, as always!
[Android General] greekfragma:
For better pictures you need the Open Camera app at Play Store.

On photo settings you set the image quality at 100% from 90% that is by default. This will make the camera file to be saved uncompressed and at full details of what the lens can do.

Notifications Led is still a mystery on Vibe 2.5

I have the first version of P6000 and sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. But for sure I got bored trying to find a solution and just installed a screen app like Led Blinker.
[Android General] N.abdul:
Yes but I can't install these rom because I hard bricked my Z1..I need files for sp flash tools..:(
[Android General] xenonism:
Thanks for your reply. The eyesore I was talking about came from Open Camera, but I haven't tried the 100% setting yet. I will and I will post again here. Apart from the objectively low quality of the hardware, the main issue seems to be an excess of postprocessing producing a picture Manet would be proud of. :cowboy:

I also had an impression of inconsistency with notifications, I guess I'll either try to find out what's wrong or just use an app, too.
[Android General] xenonism:
I'll answer myself: a long press will send the menu command to the app, while a quick press opens the task manager.
[Android General] HypoTurtle:
Wasn't sure what you meant initially, it's somewhere in Settings (display I think); you can switch what short/long press does - menu and overview (task manager).
[Android General] xenonism:
Yep, found it. When wrote my initial post I thought it was more of a specific issue, but it seems like it's just standard behaviour.

Now I have another issue: my MAC address changes every time Wi-Fi is switched off. It seems to be an NVRAM issue: does it mean that my backup and restore of radio parameters has somehow failed?
[Android General] HypoTurtle:
It's standard behaviour as the softkeys in 5.0 are back, home, overview - with a conditional menu in the corner.

Not sure what caused it; but just noticed this myself yesterday after installing a different 5.0 port - I just copied my current WIFI MAC into chameleMAC and sorted it that way.
[Android General] xenonism:
Excellent, thanks! I knew about Chamelephon, but I didn't think of looking for a Wi-Fi sibling. :)

Wifi problem

Hello

I am facing wifi problem, signal is very low. it works when i stand near the router the performance is good but in 5 meters signal is very weak and the performance is terrible. I am using vibe 2.5 20150510 but the same results were using stock 5.0 android.

Using test speed apps my performance is 1 Mbs from 18.... (5 meters from router in straight line) in 3 meters I have half of my maxiumum connection speed. I have restored radio information from stock rom (I lost my backup of nvram) from this site bbs.elephone.hk/

but it didn't help.... It could be the nvram problem ? Or hardware?. Signal and performance are good when I am standing 1 meter from router.
[Android General] greekfragma:
Get the Wifi Analyzer app here

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.farproc.wifi.analyzer&hl=el

check if you have other wi-fi signals on the same channel and adjust your channel where there is lower crosstalk frequencies.

if you see nvram warning when you open your wifi on P6000 then your nvram backup failed to load properly and you need to reflash it.
[Android General] Gausa:
Hi, thanks for answer. I already did that I checked the chanel and there are no other wifi on chanell 11. I do not have this problem with my lenovo k3 note, samsung s2 or lenovo p780. All of those mobiles have maximum speed of internet standing 5meters from the router.

My elephone came with 5.0 then i flashed kitkat rom with flash toll (format+download). I did not make my nvram backup. And then I returned to stock 5.0 and flashed vibe 2.5. On vibe in wifi scanning I was having this nvram warning so I decided to restore nvram.ini which I found on bbs.elephone page. This nvram backup was made from stock p6000 (I have changed the imei and barcode in the file). But it didn't resolved my issue. Maybe I should restore another nvram copy. Could you provide my your copy of nvram partition ?
[Android General] greekfragma:
Your problem is that the nvram backup failed to load properly. I will try to upload mine later tonight or get someone else's if he sees this post.
[Android General] Gausa:
Thanks I really appreciate for your help. I am waiting for the backup.

Is there any update on Flyme OS external SD?

Hi fellas, im back again with ulefone be pro, i ported flyme os from meizu m1 (6732). good rom working smooth

but one thing i really want to fix, how can i fix this sd card problem?

some said that replacing the boot.img/init.ssd.rc, services.jar/mountservices, and framework-res.apk/storage_list.xml would solve it. but when i tried it and flashed i always get this popup FC "personalize has stop", "music has stop". "the process com........media has stop", "systemUI has stop". and when i press ok on all of them, my phone reboots itself then going back to all those FC's

can someone help me fix this problem?

An easier way to fix IMEI

hi, here is an cmd command that could write your IMEI, so easy to use

1. download the attached file here, then extract

2. Hold shift, right click "Open command window here"

3. in cmd type "imei.exe type_here_your_firstIMEI_number type_here_your_second_IMEI_number"

4. hit enter

5. there will be a new file in the directory of imei.exe just rename it and delete "_NEW"

6. copy to sd card

7. go to /root/data/nvram/md/NVRAM/NVD_IMEI/ and replace MPOP_001 with your new one

8. change permission to rw-r-r

9.reboot
[Android General] HypoTurtle:
The p6000 flyme port is from the m1 note (6752), i ported the 32 one, but can't recall what issues there were - apart from having to set it to 1 sim only.

Have you tried using pm clear ... to fix the FCs?

Already added on #2 at 10. And chamelephon would be the simplest and it appears to be persistent.

The above posts are referring to the whole nvram and not just imei. Regardless i believe nvram is unique to each device, so using somepne elses might be pointless,perhaps if you collect alot of .ini's and try them out you might find a decent one that works. I

Im not sure how nvram works, or is generated... Is it just mtk engmode default/user settings, does it contain adjustments and corrections made on the fly...?

AMIGO 3.x [5.0]

AMIGO 3.x ROM from Gionee Elife S7

Ported this myself but made considerably easier by mystory.

Installation:

1. First check whether your WIFI MAC address is static; if it isn't use chameleMAC to make it static

2. Ensure the last SPFlash ROM you used was 5.x based.

3. Install is via custom recovery and comprises of two zips:

Zip 1

Zip 2

4. Download, reboot to recovery and flash Zip1 followed by Zip2.

Any fixes based on the same base ROM will be made with zip 2​

Description:

Only two languages: English and Chinese - not sure I can do too much regarding this

No support for installing to external sdcard

Chameleon app - I found a nice simple way to re-theme the OS​

Issues:

Quicksetting flashlight doesn't work I think

Front camera on the default camera app doesn't work - if you select it, you will need to clear it's app-data to reuse the camera app

ROM reports as v3.0.4 but apparently is v3.5 - this shouldn't have any implications, and could be corrected via build.prop if the reported version is incorrect​

Only used the ROM briefly as I needed the use of external storage that Vibe provides. Any feedback, or bugs reported I will try and fix.

Screenshots might come: in the meantime AMIGO 3.0 advert - Chameleon app seems heavily featured

There is Cm12 for p6000 by elphone..right ? What works and what doesn't work ? ( You have an idea ? ) I am just again starting to build for the device
[Android General] HypoTurtle:
There's definitely a CM12.1 ROM - I think there might be a CM12 as well but that was buggy, yes there's a couple CM12-alpha builds. The CM12.1 bugs list seems minor, sounds like just CM bugs rather than ElE bugs. I've haven't tried it for any extended period.
[Android General] Gausa:
I have restored your backup of nvram . Restore was succesfull but nothing changed. Still the same performance problems on wifi. I think that it is not the software problem. It is hardware. Wifi module in ours elephone p6000 is very bad quality.....

Best deodex tool for mtk LP

Hi,

Can anyone recommend a working deodex tool for the mtk Lollipop ROM's or a good tut guide. :confused:

Tech N You's kitchen works but only supports KK so I get some errors.

JoelDroid gives me instant error about folders cannot exist in same space no idea what that's about or does it do it on device :eek:

SVADeodexerForArt Seems to give me Java errors. :eek:
[Android General] HypoTurtle:
Maybe you need to make windows case-sensitive for JoelDroids Deodexer to work.
[Android General] GoJo ^^:
Finally got the device, i tried install recoveries but when i try to enter it, the phone just freeze and reboot..

It's running the stock lollipop. So far i tried to flash all of them?! Using flashify.. Not sure what's wrong?
[Android General] HypoTurtle:
You're probably using the wrong recovery - this one should work.
[Android General] GoJo ^^:
THANK YOU!! Is it the only/best recovery for 5.0 roms? No Touch still? I see there's no "mount USB" option.. I like TWRP best! By the way, everytime i reboot, it tells me i need to fix root, but even if i do it, next time i go recovery i'll get this message..?

PS: Just installed xposed and APM+ but it doesn't seem to detect the power menu options :( Which rom do you have? I'd like to install CM12.1 rom but i'm afraid it's too buggy or risky? I can't even find the accurate SPFlashTool file & its tutorial.. Hard to find right things for this device!
[Android General] HypoTurtle:
There is TWRP but no touch (you can use adb/twrp binary); Not sure about the root thing - it might be fixed if you add a file somewhere but just ignore it and don't use it to root. Any of the 4.4.4 recoveries work - you just need to swap the kernels.
[Android General] GoJo ^^:
I have no knowledge doing such things; are you saying any touch recovery for 4.4.4 will work on 5.0 roms, just changing one thing?

If so, i u guess there's a tutorial somewhere, if not a single file ready? Hope you can tell me more (look above, i edited) THANKS! ;)
[Android General] HypoTurtle:
No; all 5.0 ROMs need a recovery with a 5.0 (64-bit) kernel for it to work - and we only have a 4.4.4 (32-bit) kernel available.
[Android General] GoJo ^^:
I see.. Do you have the link for the original recovery, just in case? And also one for the right flashtool app.. I want to try CM12.1 now!
[Android General] HypoTurtle:
CM12.1 is installed with SPFlash (only the system.img and boot.img are changed from the Stock AOSP 5.0) - so there is a stock recovery with that.
[Android General] bigrammy:
Hi bro,

I got JoelDroids Deodexer working eventually it does not like spaces in filenames :rolleyes:
