Can you post a link? Or is that the version of the Spanish Forum?:D
[Device Reviews and Information] corr136:
For me, the MIUI firmware update function does not work in MIUI ...:confused:
[Device Reviews and Information] mrlow1981:
Download it from Mega.

https://mega.nz/#!owtUwYSB!KRvY4cf6QOep4a-LGSHExJfoHuVjXOyx94G4o_LTGt4

It is the Version from the Spanisch Forum of course

Quick question for the guys using MIUI...

Has anyone got the Music app to work? Streaming music I mean.

If yes, is there anything special that needs to be done to get it to work?
[Device Reviews and Information] fishku:
For the guys on the stock ROM... ;)

Whenever I click a link to a .zip, or a YouTube link in the browser (chrome), I get sent to the Chinese browser from where the file is downloaded / the video is started. How can I change this to download the file directly in chrome, and to watch videos with the YouTube app instead?
[Device Reviews and Information] Gerrit507:
Reset the default Apps at Settings -> Apps.
[Device Reviews and Information] fishku:
Doesn't work. There's no option for "download" there, and in the setting for default video app I can't choose YouTube...

Any other ideas?
[Device Reviews and Information] shoelace1999:
I know Meizu has a brighter display and better camera and is way thinner

But this phone has an IR blaster and that USB type-C

Hard decision

I'm also thinking of the Redmi note 2

But that camera isn't Sony and has bad picture

This is such a hard decision. Please reply
[Device Reviews and Information] shajman:
Anyone?
[Device Reviews and Information] Cologne69:
I have both devies. Meizu Mx5 and the LeTV x600...

Speaking of better camera: According to a shoot out i saw once, the best pics are taken with the MX4!

The Meizu is very slippery and too thin in my opinion. Brighter display: Yes! But keep in mind that you dont have any options to install a custom rom. Unless you own a Mx4 Pro on which you can install OMNI ROM.

I didnt found any working IR app ! Nice feature but not that important for me....

If possible try to get your hands on both to choose. I ordered the LeTV first and Meizu later... Not sure which one i should keep..
[Device Reviews and Information] Bichisu:
What about wifi issues, are they already fixed in the recent rom?
[Device Reviews and Information] Gerrit507:
It got a bit better but it's still worse than other devices. I can live with. I compared it with an IPhone 5S and a Galaxy Note 3, it was a bit better than the Iphone but worse than the Galaxy, so think about how many people life with an Iphone 5S :laugh: Keep in mind that it's only the recption which is making problems at the moment, if you have reception the speed you'll get is great.

I installed MIUI from MAXTeam yesterday and removed it again after 15 min. I think it's horrible. I don't like the UI at all. I just thought I'm using an Iphone, horrible. I could not see any advantages in performance, some guys in the spanish forum talk about 2,2 GB of free RAM. What?! I got 1,8GB free the same as on BB72 5S. The vibration of the hardkeys was going crazy, it was like almost exploding when just hitting a button accidently. I could not test the battery life, but even if it would have a better, I would'nt use it because the MIUI port just feels to unfinished to me in almost every department.

If they manage to fix everything, I'll give it a another try but only with nova launcher :silly:
[Device Reviews and Information] Zenityx:
Hi! Just chiming in to let you all know I am also running the latest MIUI Rom on my letv X600. I have been testing it for a couple of days and it does seem to perform okay with our phone. There are minor bugs (as You Tube app freezing but easily solved replacing the original app with a newest version) So it does seem to work pretty damn good. Wifi has improved and so is battery.

So far this is prob the most stable rom I have used.
[Device Reviews and Information] fishku:
Solution:

I froze the stock browser app in titanium backup, then clicked a YouTube/zip link, where I could choose new apps. This was not possible in the settings! Now I unfroze the stock browser and still can use YouTube and whatever I want for zips. Problem solved!

SOS

I wiped too much in the phone. nothing works. Can anyone find/generate a scatter file and share?

http://www.theandroidhow.com/2014/05/easy-steps-to-make-android-scatter-file.html

Thanks!
[Device Reviews and Information] fishku:
Get the stock 03s or 02s ROM from needrom, they contain scatter files! You'll also need a current version of sp flash tools. Good luck!
[Device Reviews and Information] walwalla:
Thanks! did you manage to do that?

I get error (scatter file is invalid). I used many versions of the sp flash tool. last one was SP-Flash-Tool-v5.1532.00.

the scatter file in all these version really seems to be seems to be too basic. e.g. the 05s looks like this:

preloader 0x0

pgpt 0x0

proinfo 0x80000

nvram 0x380000

that's all.
[Device Reviews and Information] ShizukoZ:
That won't work You need to flash the sp flash version of the eui rom

The last one is a V4 stable

After that upgarde your phone to v5 stable using the method you want (twrp or umi root app rootjoy)
[Device Reviews and Information] fishku:
Check out this thread (use google translate):

http://bbs.letv.com/thread-801353-1.html

Judging from the screenshot, they use SP flash tool 5.1512. Maybe it helps to try with that exact version?

The Chinese forum hides some content from visitors unless you post a reply in that thread. But, you gotta have a Chinese mobile number to do so. So maybe, some crucial information is hidden.

There is also some other information on this forum. Use google translate, then search for "brick" (they use the same literal word for "bricking" a device, but in Chinese). You will find a few guides, maybe this will help you.

I luckily didn't have to do restore using scatter file yet, but I tried to research a bit about the steps. So it's good that we can try to do them now!
[Device Reviews and Information] walwalla:
You was right, I didn't manage to get actual links to the required files.

[Device Reviews and Information] shajman:
Could you PLEASE check the Music app and see if it streams online music. Thanks.
[Device Reviews and Information] Zenityx:
I am right now installing today's update of this rom. But none reported issues with the streaming in the native app.

This is the link where donwloaded both Roms and where thedevelopers forum is (spanish)

Maybe you could post your questions there

(cannot post links as a new user, so just google "rom letv x600 miui V7 by maxteam and it should pop the forum, under the name "movilesdualsim".)

I hope this helps.
[Device Reviews and Information] mrsus:
got step for installing MIUI ?
[Device Reviews and Information] corr136:
The ROM must be installed in TWRP Recovery.

In TWRP menu:

Backup -> Your old LeTV System

wipe -> advanced -> cache+data+dalvik+system

Install -> the MIUI ROM

If the error message again Install.

Wipe -> Cache+dalvikcache

Reboot
[Device Reviews and Information] mrsus:
thanks got MIUI_V7_150920 install.

First day impression of MIUI overall good.

Battery Life seem better.

call, wifi , camera all seem to working fine.

No more random reboot like EUI beta rom
[Device Reviews and Information] Marun1982:
stupid question, but ... do you have installed "google contacts .apk"?

* if you do not get an app called "google installer" and from there instal all Google services that you need
[Device Reviews and Information] shajman:
Thanks Zenityx,

if you could just search for any random song thru the Music app and then try to play it. Would be very grateful. Thanks.
[Device Reviews and Information] Dapalm:
Hey! I'm looking for a smartphone of this price tag. Well, I saw this one, and reviews were very good. But now, searching through this thread, it seems like there are a lot of bugs... So, my questions are:

- Are you satisfied with this phone?

- Would you recommend it?

- The Xiaomi Note 2 could be an alternative... which one would you buy?

Thanks!
[Device Reviews and Information] walwalla:
Can someone help me to find an accessible version of sp version of any compatible rom please? Mm y phone is useless right now.

---------- Post added at 03:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:16 AM ----------

Thanks!

Where can I find any so version of this phone? Can you please share an accessible link?
[Device Reviews and Information] nosname:

[Device Reviews and Information] sansanc:
Why don't you guys install TWRP from flash tools and then install any ROM from it?
[Device Reviews and Information] Gerrit507:
Hey guys there is finally a AOSP rom out there: http://www.movilesdualsim.com/tema/rom-letv-x600-aosp_mdsteam_by_maxteam.114475/

Has somebody tried it yet? It seems like the camera isn't working right atm... If they fix it I will definitely try, this is what I was waiting for!

edit: I installed the ROM and it's amazing! But there are really big issues with the camera: no autofocus, no flash and everything is blurred. The front camera is not working at all.

I tried to install the camera app from eui with Titanium Backup but it does not work :( Hope they gonna fix it soon, great ROM!

Yes, I am statisfied with it. The performance, display, build quality and camera are great. The battery is ok.

I would recommend it to you if you know how to flash a custom rom.

I guess you mean the Redmi Note 2. I didn't used this phone so far but I can tell you that the camera is worse on the Xiaomi and it has only 2GB of RAM. Further I think the Xiaomi's case can not compete with the one of the letv. Anyway, the Redmi Note 2 costs 100€ less, so thats a quite unfair comparision. Both phones are definetly worth their price, no doubt...
[Device Reviews and Information] Gerrit507:
The AOSP ROM is running good so far.

Things that I noticed:

-

free RAM is amazing! You'll get about 2,2 GB of free RAM. :good:

the ROM is very lightweight, no unnecessary apps, only the great stock apps :good:

Permissions Management :good:

everything runs really fast and smooth :good:

very stable, didn't have any crashes or reboots :good:

root, mobile uncle and xposed :good:

Nova Launcher fully supported! :good:

battery usage could be a bit lower in my eyes, but after one day I can not give a final assessment

Bugs:

Rear Camera:

no flashlight

no autofocus

blurred

Front Camera not working at all

Battery usage stats are not complete, it only shows Android OS, standby and display but no user apps

adaptive display brightness is working in general but much to directly and not very precisely, which means if you just turn your phone a little bit the brightness reacts instantly and then it's sometimes to dark or to bright

If you can live with the bad camera, I can only recommend you to install this ROM!

For example it's the first time my contact app is working right. With EUI I always had contacts twice because of Whats App. The silly eui contacts app is just not able to merge contacts from different accounts...
[Device Reviews and Information] fishku:
Thanks for being the guinea pig for us!

Bad camera is a deal breaker for me so far. Is it just the stock app that has trouble, or do others work?
[Device Reviews and Information] Gerrit507:
I tried others such as Open Camera and the ZTE stock camera app from BB72, but they are not working. The eui stock camera is not installable. I also use my camera often but I dont want to go back :D.

I forgot to add that you can use the notification LED in blue, cyan, magenta, red, white, green and yellow. Different to the eui rom where only green, blue and red are usable.
[Device Reviews and Information] sansanc:
Gerrit, thanks for this! I was about to install 6S, but because of this, i will give it a good try!

Maybe battery lasted less because you used the phone more to test the new ROM?

Mate.... This is one of the most annoying problems on EUI, no matter how many times i unchecked contact sync on the whatsapp account and whatsapp contacts on Contacts settings, they would show all the time. Contact backup sucks because of this! Anyone knows why Titanium won't backup contacts?!

Camera sucks, but what if you install another camera app?

Would be so great if the GPS actually worked like it should. Always 2-3m accuracy. But probably, the same libraries are being used.

---------- Post added at 17:49 ---------- Previous post was at 17:47 ----------

Did you tried Google Camera?
[Device Reviews and Information] Gerrit507:
Google Camera is preinstalled and not working :( I think it is a firmware problem, we should get the proper firmware files from the stock rom or another aosp rom for phone with the same camera, it's a Sony IMX214 Exmor
[Device Reviews and Information] mrlow1981:
AOSP works fine for me about 2 days. I think camera and flashlight is a driver Problem.

The Rom was simply ported from another device, there is still a few adjustments. I hope that the developers are working on it as yet. Then it would be perfect.

By the way , how to use CM12 Themen???
[Device Reviews and Information] Gerrit507:
Yes the rom is ported from xiaomi redmi Note 2, which has a Samsung camera and also a different front camera... Do you also have it from the spanish forum or is there another source? It's so hard to find stuff about letv.

My phone is running since 12h now with 2:30h OST and I have 55% battery left. What I noticed is that I have much less wakelocks from Google App and Google Services. With eui I had thousands of wakelocks with much more wake time. So I see a huge improvement there.

edit: 27h with 4h OST, 20% left
[Device Reviews and Information] Celtha:
Screen Yellow

Could anyone help me? yesterday arrived mine and my wife's, when put side by side has a good white screen and the other more yellow screen, does anyone know what can it be? I've done reset the two are exactly the same configuration. Does it have to update this possible bug? Android version 5.0.2
[Device Reviews and Information] Gerrit507:
More useful would be the EUI version. The most recent is 5.0.006S. I can recommend you the app display tester https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gombosdev.displaytester&hl=de
[Device Reviews and Information] Celtha:
The version that I am using is the same as you described.
[Device Reviews and Information] corr136:
The same with me. The display from LeTV my son is more yellow than my LeTV. I think the cause is due to the hardware. It may be possible that different display to be installed. My LeTV with the whiter screen I ordered later.
[Device Reviews and Information] Celtha:
Will you be able to solve this problem? As it is a sharp screen, I think this could not happen.
[Device Reviews and Information] Gerrit507:
I got mine just after release and the screen is perfect. Sometimes chinese manufacturers just change the display after the time like it happend to the THL 5000 but I don't think there are two differents versions of the letv out so far. It just might be defective display or a firmware / software issue. There are screen adjustment apps in the play store, where you can change colour filters and so on, did you try something like that?
[Device Reviews and Information] Celtha:
I can not access the Google play store. Apparently that's OK, just more yellowish than the screen of my wife. AnTuTu 50,000. It came with a ROM coolicool store, just updating as directed by Andy with it was in English and not with my Portuguese language Brazil. But rather well and have updates.
[Device Reviews and Information] corr136:
Yes, it could also be a firmware / software problem. In MIUI display settings to cold, it is not any better. But ... when I compare the (yellow) LeTV in the media market with a S6 (Edge) or iPhone 6, which LeTV is whiter than the two phones.

And I would say even a little brighter.

I will try to contact with LeTV Support. Is there an e-mail?
[Device Reviews and Information] sansanc:
I have installed the AOSP. Yes, it's the same ROM for redmi, they even didn't change the name of the phone :)

- Camera is almost useless yes.

- I see some funky thing with the display, too big icons and fonts, had to put the DPI to 420 to look more like EUI ROMs.

- Loudspeaker on some calls (not all) does not work. Just like before on EUI.

- GPS is worse, only 11 satellites on view, whithout moving, accuracy is like 6-9 meters.

---------- Post added at 03:53 ---------- Previous post was at 03:48 ----------

I'm running the AOSP ROM, so i don't know this by heat, but you can change the color mode in Settings, just search for it. Maybe one phone has a different mode than the other. I think there is LeTV mode, Vivid mode, etc. Maybe that's the "problem". Must on Settings > Display or something like that.
[Device Reviews and Information] shoelace1999:
Wait Sansanc are you saying that the this display can be brighter than the IPhone 6 and the Galaxy S6???
[Device Reviews and Information] Celtha:
I compared in a store and found the most beautiful LeTV screen that S6 but can be printing. Someone has android 5.1 forecast LeTV?
[Device Reviews and Information] sansanc:
Oh no, it's was a issue with the resolution on the AOSP ROM.

I forgot to say that on the AOSP, 4g signal is more difficult to come by. I'll install 6S, for now the AOSP ROM isn'tt ready for prime time, at least for me. The developers did nothing to make it more LeTV friendly. It's the very same ROM for redmi note 2. I'll be watching the AOSP thread and wait for a V2 release.
[Device Reviews and Information] sansanc:
I don't have much hope for Android 5.1 on our x600. LeTV developed EUI on 5.0.2 and i don't think they will make efforts to port it to 5.1. I think they are preparing their new phone releases. And they sure need to prepare! As LeTV is arriving on USA and there they will not be accepting some "bugs" as the chinese (and we) accepted. They sure will burn it on public.
[Device Reviews and Information] Gerrit507:
I asked the developer maple. He said that a V2 is already in progress. I tell you more if I here from him again. You can not say they did nothing to port it to the letv, it would not run without any changes, I looked in the system and firmware folders and there are letv related files.

There is no device with Mediatek Helio X10 running Android 5.1 at the moment but you can not blame letv nor any other manufacturer for that. It's only MediaTeks fault. They do not provide any firmware for Android 5.1 yet.
[Device Reviews and Information] Celtha:
I did not think anything about it, the X600 has a special audio processor? Saw that the pro has, but the x600 could not identify this information.
[Device Reviews and Information] fishku:
Did you manage to restore your "bricked" phone by using a scatter file? If so, please tell us about the way you solved the problems :)
[Device Reviews and Information] walwalla:
I didn't. still looking for a solution.
[Device Reviews and Information] walwalla:
to sum up - no rom in sp flash format is available for western people. If anyone can create such a rom - he will be blessed by many.

If you want to help, but don't know how - probably that worth a try: http://www.mtkroms.com/2015/02/how-to-backup-and-restore-your-mtk.html
[Device Reviews and Information] sansanc:
Can you flash TWRP? Using the flash tools or the zip file s7yler has on his blog?
[Device Reviews and Information] fishku:
OK, I want to install a ROM and start as clean as possible. Is it save to do all 5 wipes in TWRP (cache, system, dalvik, internal storage and data), or will I end up with a bricked device like walwalla? :p
[Device Reviews and Information] Gerrit507:
The recovery should remain because it's a separate partition. But keep in mind that the original eui roms might flash the original recovery if you want TWRP than you have to flash it again.
[Device Reviews and Information] walwalla:
I can't get into recovery since the volume button does not work (was dead on arrival). Apparently, the sp flash tool is my last resort. It shouldn't be so hard to generate and many people need that. but so far, I found traces for such a rom only on assian forums which I didn't manage to reveal its hidden content.
[Device Reviews and Information] Gerrit507:
Then use adb to boot into recovery ;) or repair the button :D It's not really bricked than.
[Device Reviews and Information] walwalla:
it is bricked.

I had a HW problem. the store was willing to get the device back. I just wanted to wipe all my data before sending the phone to china and something went wrong. probably I wiped too much.

now I have a bricked phone with WH problem...
[Device Reviews and Information] Gerrit507:
If you can go into recovery theoretically it's not bricked. Try as I said to enter recovery by adb / fastboot, it is possible.
[Device Reviews and Information] walwalla:
currently, I am stuck on the first logo. How can I get into the recovery without the volume buttom?
[Device Reviews and Information] Gerrit507:
Let me ask you first what did you delete exactly and how?
[Device Reviews and Information] fishku:
Thanks, it worked just fine!
[Device Reviews and Information] Gerrit507:
Did the original Rom remove the recovery? The newer roms shouldn't.
[Device Reviews and Information] fishku:
I installed a modified 6s ROM, and it did not remove the TWRP recovery.
[Device Reviews and Information] walwalla:
I used the advanced mode of the wipe in my recovery. probably I wiped things I didn't intended to. so, I can't tell you exactly what happened.
[Device Reviews and Information] fishku:
That's weird because I just did that yesterday. I chose advanced wipe from TWRP, then I wiped *everything*. Then I flashed the new ROM of course :p But you shouldn't have any problems just because of that!
[Device Reviews and Information] Gerrit507:
If you wipe everything in TWRP, theres still a recovery, boot, preloader, uboot ... partition. You are stucked at the logo because you wiped system partition. So you need to get into recovery without the hardware buttons.

1. Install adb and drivers from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2588979

2. Connect your phone to the pc when it's turned on and stuck at the logo

3. Go to device manager and make sure windows recognizes the phone as adb device(this is important)

3.1 if it doens't, right click on the device -> update driversoftware -> search on the computer for drviers -> choose from list -> now select Android Composite ADB Interface

4. Open CMD

5. Type "cd C:\adb" to go to the adb directory

6. Type "adb devices" and make sure the device is listed, if not theres maybe something wrong with the driver

7. Type "adb reboot recovery" the phone should now boot into recovery...

Good luck!

btw: I have problems with adb and Windows 10 you might need a Windows 7/8 machine
