could be that i am just stupid but im not able to boot into recovery

I did the upgrade first then switched the recovery with the one from the rar archiv for the m7 and then downloaded it to the phone. then i disconnected the phone from pc started it and connected it again. then type into cmd: "adb reboot recovery" and the phone restarts but just into normal os again..... What is my problem?

Thx for the help :T
[Device Reviews and Information] Crazy_Neko:
so i discovered some new stuff

i flashed the recovery over fastboot since it just didnt work anymore (spft) after that i booted phone and hold down volume button since adb reboot recovery still didnt work. but then i got a chinese list of options which was really strange and then i pulled the plug. or better the batterie. it still works everything but i jsut cant get inot this ****ing recovery. or am i just using the false? i used the one for the malaise thingi form post 12 mediafire link.

Easiest way

I just redid the whole thing again, and it took me all of 5 minutes.

1. DL the rom from the Mstar website

2. DL latest SP flash tools (child's play compared to the horrible flashing tool that Mstar provides)

3. In SP, just choose scatter file from one of the folders from the downloaded Mstar rom and flash it.

4. Replace the recovery.img within the rom folder with the one from Mlais.

5. Run SP again, this time choosing only the recovery partition and flash.

6. Long press power + vol up buttons till the phone reboots into new recovery

7. Flash SuperSU2.49 and stericsons latest busybox(optional), reboot

8. Using a root explorer navigate /system rename extension of the file recoveryfromboot.p to. .bak. (This is so you won't lose the new recovery).

Hope this

p.s: Latest SP and drivers are freely available on china phone arena.

For advanced users only:

I personally use these build prop tweaks and find that scrolling and response is definitely better. I haven't had any reboots or freezes using these.

If you don't know what I'm taking about, don't mess with this. MTK phones are not as forgiving as SD, when it comes to tweaking.

Always take a back up.

* * * HELP * * * MStar S700 randomly reboots

hi,

i received my mstar s700 on the 2nd of october and it reboots randomly. every 3 to 7 minutes. Does anyone have an idea of what it could be?

It does not reboot if it is charging or if the screen is on. it looks like some problem that happens when it is in standby state…

Help me please…

thank you
[Device Reviews and Information] Mouratti:
I see this phone havê good specs, but poor software.

Wich ROM are you using guys?

Default?
[Device Reviews and Information] selmandeli:
I'm with rooted 20150717. The only issue I have is the low voice on both side and inaccurate compass.
[Device Reviews and Information] Mouratti:
low voice? but you can use the phone and had a conversation?

Anyone have other roms?

Im on default stock rom, but i like to change to KK or lolipoop 5.1
[Device Reviews and Information] selmandeli:
Yes I can make a conversation, but even if the volume is on max the voice from the phone is not too loud. I think this is a hardware issue.
[Device Reviews and Information] Mouratti:
Well on my not have this issue, but is stock rom
[Device Reviews and Information] Mouratti:

I installed the latest ROM from needrom (V3). Everything is ok except the phone storage. It says: Phone storage, Total space 4.79GB, Available 2.56GB. But I can't use even this space.

Edit: Fixed it by reflashing.
[Device Reviews and Information] SUMMERBREEZE:

Someone reported lollipop 5.1 for our phone I cannot see where to find it, in needrom its only 5.0
[Device Reviews and Information] Mouratti:
I guess on need a ROM, have one its 5 base on 5.1...anyone test it?
[Device Reviews and Information] SUMMERBREEZE:
Unfortunately this phone doesnt have DEEP SLEEP at all.. The battery drains fast because somehings are eating the battery while it was in idle (but not in idle actualy)

Any advises? Do you think Greenify would help?

Otherwise, it is an amazing phone. Especially the camera suprised me.
[Device Reviews and Information] mobilis2009:
Sir [MENTION=4273656]Mouratti[/MENTION] were is it the version 5.1 [MENTION=3014815]SUMMERBREEZE[/MENTION] the system go to deep sleep if no change to the system OS, try to reflash your rom
[Device Reviews and Information] SUMMERBREEZE:
Thank you for the post.

I am using the rom on mstar website and i didnt touch the system. There is only root in the device.

http://www.mstar.hk/Mobile/show/12.html#

What is your rom version and where did you flash from?
[Device Reviews and Information] SUMMERBREEZE:
Guys, i think i found a solution for this battery drain issue (in idle and general use) I am still on test. I deffinately see difference in a good way than before.

I will hopefuly write the guide tonight. It is actualy a mix of two roms. 1 ise a custom rom and the other one is official release.

Overall i paid 111 usd for this phone incl shipping and it worth its price until the last penny. It is an amazing phone, soo fast and smooth. No lag at all! I am impressed
[Device Reviews and Information] Mouratti:
Its not Android 5.1 its 5 based on 5.1. Guess is the same of stock. [MENTION=5498033]Summer[/MENTION] share with US, this Work with stock ROM?
[Device Reviews and Information] SUMMERBREEZE:
Actually it is a custom rom. I found it in this forum :

http://www.mstar.es/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=12&sid=cb2db1044e361c796874c7c1ee1cd9fc

It was also mentioned here before by a user but dont remember. I want to thank to the owner of this rom because it is really a good work.

The thing is, you download this rom and extract. And then download the latest stock rom for S700 from mstar.hk website (update.rar) and extract it too. And now just copy system.img and recovery.img from custom rom and paste them in the official stock rom/accept the changes. And now flash by SP Flash Tools via method FORMAT + DOWNLOAD from stock rom, as using the android scatter file in the stock rom. In the end, the imei data will be lost, but it is easy to recover by this method so first write them imei numbers down somewhere. You can go to engineering mode also dialing these numbers : *#*#3646633#*#*

Thats it. I have tested all day today and in 8 hours in idle and with some small usage, the battery went down from %100 to %90 percent ONLY which is quite good IMO. Because before it was around %70 percent as the same time period. But of course, your usage may varry :)

---------- Post added at 09:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:24 PM ----------

The reason why i mixed the roms, because when we use the custom rom only, there is a internal storage problem. When you check the storage, you see it is shown as 0 (ZERO) and cant be used properly. Some apps also give errors. I could not fix these issue unfortunately. So we are eleminating these issues via this mixture and it worked for me. It is also based on 5.1 android (but still 5.0), wallpapers, launcher, and some good apps and very good battery consumption. So please try and let me know :)
[Device Reviews and Information] Mouratti:
And the push up notifications,camera and WiFi and 3G works good?
[Device Reviews and Information] SUMMERBREEZE:
3G and 4G works just fine! To be honest, with the stock rom, i could barely catch the 4g speed, but right now i can say it is much much better. I havent tried camera very much but it works just like the stock rom, i havent checked the images very deeply tho. Wifi also doesnt have problem. It is almost like a stock rom but deodexed. The owner of the rom claims he disabled the battery drain caused by some heavy apps. I deffinately see the difference. I am also leaving the telephones network as 4G (MEANS 2G/3G/4G auto) and should eat more battery, but not! Before i had to leave the network as 2G to save more battery.
[Device Reviews and Information] SUMMERBREEZE:
this topic is really dead and no sense to write anymore, cos noone reads or write. This device does not deserve this
[Device Reviews and Information] selmandeli:
You are right... Unfortunately it seems no one developer is interested of maintaining this phone :(
[Device Reviews and Information] SUMMERBREEZE:
the solution i posted really works.. it has got a great deepsleep and much better battery usage. lets say %15 better. it is better than nothing! the only cons i found is there is no s-cover setting in display part, so you cant use the original s-cover clock case with the rom i posted.
[Device Reviews and Information] Mouratti:
I dont use it

Can you make a vídeo step by step, how to do it
[Device Reviews and Information] SUMMERBREEZE:
I will upload the rom somewhere and share the link here

and after just flash by sp flash tools. thats all
[Device Reviews and Information] Solutionman:
Hi Summerbreeze,

I've got a brandnew Mstar S700 and I'm trying desperately to root it! I think I'll never buy another phone from any manufacturer that makes rooting so hard for the owner! I could work easily with MTKdroid-tools - but it's the first time that I work with SPFT.

And so far it seems far mor complicated and didn't work so far ( I followed your step by step instruction, had the "handshake" - but after reconnecting the phone to the PC there was no "progress" at all...)

So if you could upload the completed ROM (and maybe even the tutorial video) you'll find another raving fan in me for your support...! ;)

Thanks in advance for any help!

[Device Reviews and Information] SUMMERBREEZE:
hi my friend

I have finished packing the rom and uploadeded, tonight hopefuly i will write a tuttorial for it.

It is actualy very easy to root the phone. You will just flash the rom and it will be rooted automaticly aswel. If the phone is not recognized by pc, you must be sure that you installed the drivers.

Here is the drivers :

http://www.mediafire.com/download/dv8il5vv8bdv9t8/Drivers-V2.0.zip

For this, extract them and plug the phone tp pc by usb cable when the phone is on.and from device manager(first find the problematic device shown as yellow color or question mark and click on it and update drivers), browse them and install. if it doesnt work. try a few times. also try turning thr pc off and on
[Device Reviews and Information] Solutionman:
Thanks a lot for yout effort!

But I flashed your "mixed ROM" already with the official way (shown in the video on the Mstar homepage).

And the IMEI-numbers were kept as well...

It worked so far and the device is rooted and the included apps are really usefull (I just added directly Titanium Backup to recover all my apps etc., LBE Security Master and Kernel Audiutor).

But unfortunately there is still no Deepsleep (!), the sound is still poor and the GPS seems to work worse (but I had the same experience after installing a custom ROM on my Redmi 1S).

I really hope you continue the good work and are coming up with even better solutions in the future! ;)
[Device Reviews and Information] SUMMERBREEZE:
hello

thanks for feedback. But i am sure if you followed the steps from the beginning till the end, you would have a better result i guess.

The official way can be different and maybe not formatting properly? And i have deffinately a great deep sleep. Also be sure that when you lleave the phone to deep sleep, dont keep any active app that can drain the battery and stıll keep the phone up (screen ıs off but stıll workıng at behind)

I did my best to help, home some other people can do better works and we sort the problems properly in the future

I am hoping also some others to try and give their feedbacks. Then we can have a better conclusion.
[Device Reviews and Information] SUMMERBREEZE:
I have flashed the rom again to test :)

After flashing, i charged it until 100 percent and leave it to deep sleep (i didnt install any app yet)

In 7 hours, only 1 percent gone.. For this device, pretty good (remember it has only 2400-2500 mAh battery though advertised as 3000 mah..)

If you dont call this as a good deep sleep and battery usage? i really dont know what else we can do :)
[Device Reviews and Information] Solutionman:
Deep Sleep

I only checked the CPU-Activity with apps like CPU-Spy and Kernel Audiutor which show you exactly the percentage for every CPU-frequency used (from 1690 MHz down to 468 MHz and Deep Sleep).

And until this morning Deep Sleep has never been used...

But this morning I had Deep Sleep for the first time... :good: ;)

Thanks again for your effort!

P.S.: I checked the capacity of the battery - and it's 2600 mAh maximum charge....
[Device Reviews and Information] SUMMERBREEZE:
Please also uninstall the apps that u can easily install later and then install wakelock detector from google play.

Charge the phone until 100 percent. Close the apps which are working behind by pressing long the home button (the one in the middle) and start the wakelock detector app and leave it to deep sleep.. And check the activities in the morning. It will show u which apps kept the battery busyand the screen busy and which of them ruined thr deep sleep and keep the the device still working at behind... and after that, install GREENIFY app and freze these apps to wake the device during deep sleep.

For sound, it is i think the hardware issue, it never had a good volume quality.. Maybe you can install some apps to make the sound better? for me the sound is enough.. For GPS, i dont have a problem yet.. It was difficult to lock the satalites at first time but later it worked well.. i cant say it has a super gps antenna but if you think about the price tag of this device, we must accept the fact that we cant get everything we want as perfect.. yes? :)
[Device Reviews and Information] SUMMERBREEZE:
Guys, we made a decision and bought this device. We knew its pros and cons..

Although it has almost no support from the company and no custom rom developer..

It is hard to say but we are on our own :)

So we will accept this device as it is and try our best to solve the issues step by step..

I paid 111 usd for it inc free shipping and no custom tax.. Am i happy? Yes.. thats it! :)

Please write this devices specifications on a paper and change the name as Samsung and guess how much it would be on market.. no more word to say..

So use it as much as you can, enjoy it and then sell it to someone and buy another device :)

---------- Post added at 07:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:20 PM ----------

by the way i forgot to say.

I bought this case 15 days ago and delivered today. Not bad at all..

http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Case...ar-S700-5-5-inch-Fundas-Card/32471761779.html

You know there are not many cases for this device (like no support and no developer! :D )
[Device Reviews and Information] SUMMERBREEZE:
You mean the notofication led right? I used this app and it worked good but later disabled it. so cant comment about the battery life

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ledblinker

If you can afford, purchase the full app so it will give you more things.

the sound is related to the hardware.. whatever we do, it wont be great cos it is not a great speaker builted in.. for me it is quite ok, i can hear it almost eveywhere.. to be honest i dont use my phone for media uses. i have a good Teclast tablet for it.

I dont have a clue about switching data internet / wifi internet.. i mostly switch from 2G to 4G and always works. (i keep it as 2g to save more battery)

also i almost have lost my faith to this topic since it is not active at all.. nobody is interested.. i think i am good with the phone like that right now and i dont need anymore improvement. I will propably sell my device to a friend maybe after 1 year and get meizu or xiomi for better support.

"S-Cover" / Quick-Circle Function

I got the original "Quick-Circle" / "s-cover clock case" from Mstar and it's working with this ROM!

I can even switch between the clock and the music-player - but I could't find any settings to change the clock etc.

Anyone else the same experience? Any hints for the settings...?

Mechanical Android for the Samsung galaxy s2 (i9100 variants)

This is my personal ROM based on Paranoid Android. It's still in early stages so features that i plan to include and optimizations are not fully implemented. With that being said, It is more then stable enough for a daily driver. You can think of it as an optimized AOSPA for now.

Differences between official Paranoid android are:

-different name (duh)

-Built with UBER toolchain

-V4A built in

-other smaller optimizations to improve performance such as disabled various debuggers

-Removed Bloat wallpapers and stuff

-Removed ParanoidOTA

-Disabled high volume warning

-added nova launcher

-apollo music player

I plan to add MUCH more over the following weeks
