I finally had a play with one of these yesterday as I set one up and unlocked one for a friend.

Unlocked easily for only £3.75. Did not have to manually input any APN's. Installed Google now launcher and was surprised how much Vodafone stuff you can actually delete straight off. The remaining Vodafone stuff I disabled and it's pretty much Vanilla android.

Great device for a great price I'm seriously considering getting one just as a spare to use as a toy.

We need to unlock the bootloader now
[General Questions and Answers] ebribeiro:
I have rooted with king root and then replaced with SuperSu and uninstalled kingroot. I' ve looked for ways to unlock bootloader even on zte S6 devices, that are similar but have not found any so far. The source kernel is available on zte site but with bootloader locked se can do litle with it.

---------- Post added at 01:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:32 PM ----------

Se have similar problema to the zte S6, sinse they use same kernel. The minimum frequency is 996mhz what consumes more batery. This problem is known but not resolver because se can not change kernel :(
[General Questions and Answers] Andrei221:
I saw that it is 996. Can't it be changed after root? I saw that somebody specified that it can be done.

Can you check the status of bootloader by checking the kernel source? How ?
[General Questions and Answers] ephumuris:
Surely not all cores are active at that point though. I wouldn't worry too much about what CPU apps say. If your battery lasts for the day it's not a problem!

wifi issue

Having a issue with picking up wifi with phone ..... If i disconnect from a wifi network for whatever reason and try to reconnect i cant, i can see the Signal but it doesn't connect, if i turn on and off flight mode it will then connect, no issue with dropping signal or anything just that initial connection seems to happen about 80% of the time, anyone experience anything similar? not major issue but bit annoying to have to do. Other than that no issues with handset and v. happy with it.

I had wifi issue somewhat similar to this on old phone i wonder could it be a sim card issue?? hardly seen as you can use wifi without sim

[General Questions and Answers] BlitterTwisted:
I doubt it's the screen protector I have none and it doesn't always work for me. My guess is the phone goes into a deep sleep and the feature stops working. Picking the phone up sometimes makes it work again as if it is monitoring the motion sensor

I've been messing around building for the oneplus two and I had a bit of a eureka moment and managed to get a much better build for the SU6.

So here is a link to my first test build if anyone wants to just see cm12 on their SU6. phone and wifi work...

MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A FULL TWRP BACKUP OF STOCK ROM SO YOU CAN RESTORE

I know there are bugs so please don't post this doesn't work etc, cos I know. :)

http://151.80.43.196/cm-12.1-20151007-UNOFFICIAL-p839v55_TEST2_lonespeaker.zip - TEST2: modified boot img.

Major Bugs:

No Sound

No Camera

No Button LED

No Haptic Feedback

If you don't know how to install TWRP and do a FULL BACKUP then this is not for you, sorry!

MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A FULL TWRP BACKUP OF STOCK ROM SO YOU CAN RESTORE

MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A FULL TWRP BACKUP OF STOCK ROM SO YOU CAN RESTORE

I know how impatient people can be on XDA so please don't hassle me about how soon stuff will get fixed, because I'm less likely to fix it if I get annoyed :)

I'll post up sources later today once I have got them tidied up a bit and I'm sure the build works for others. But for the record some of the work is from the Huawei G620 device tree, moto xplay and my own stuff, all hacked together somehow - so needs lots of tidying up to make a fully working SU6 rom.

Yeah, already posted there :) been lots of downloads but no comments if it boots yet. really need confirmation it boots for someone else before I spend more time.
[General Questions and Answers] movitum:
i was gonna wait a bit to try the build, but now im curious, so as soon as i get off work ill make sure to at least just check if it boots ok
[General Questions and Answers] LUNARIO:
I will download later btw after full backup the recover will leave the ROM rooted only without the stock recovery yes ? Does SMS and headphones works,?

Enviado do meu Vodafone Smart ultra 6 através de Tapatalk
[General Questions and Answers] lonespeaker:
Before installing my cm12 zip file it is very important that you make a full backup of your phone using TWRP.

This is so you can use TWRP to restore your phone back to exactly how it was before you installed my cm12 zip.

Once you have done the full backup you can install my cm12 zip. you will have to do a wipe like you do when installing any other new rom.

There is no point installing gapps because this build is not ready for daily use, but if you want to, install a 32bit version.

Once cm12 is installed (and gapps) you can flash supersu.zip as well if you want and then reboot.

First boot may take a little while.

Camera, Sound and LED doesn't work. There will be an error about dolby sound on boot.

SMS should work yes. WIFI works, Calls work.

Once I know the build boots for others, I'll continue working on it. There's no point working on cm12 if it only works for me :)

remember: you flash at your own risk.

btw my su6 is one of the hard to root ones (cant root with mobilego etc)
[General Questions and Answers] lonespeaker:
Thanks for trying and confirming the restoring process. for others: as long as you do a full backup before installing there is no reason you will harm your phone :)

Hey guys i need help with rooting my Smart Ultra 6. Im pretty new to all smartphone and Android related stuff.

I read up on a lot of things in the last few days and finally found the courage to try and root my phone.

I managed to get root access with MobileGo and with KingRoot. So far so good.

The problem is: I get root for only a few minutes and after that, root access dissapears, KingRoot also tells me that root access is no longer available if I then check again.

Im only able to uninstall some system apps before root dissapears.

Anyone has experienced this and knows how I gain permanent root?

Root the phone with kingroot or mobilego then install TWRP, then enter recovery mode and install supersu with TWRP..

Thank you to everyone whose posted about the rom booting, it's appreciated.

Once I have another test build to try I'll post it here.

Just as a friendly reminder, please don't post any bugs about stuff not working because at this time there is a lot not working :( I'm more interested in specific feedback for certain features per test build. test2 was whether it booted, and whether wifi and calls worked.
[General Questions and Answers] Maceeee:
Nice! I had to flash supersu instantly after flashing twrp. I then uninstalled Kingroot and everything seems to work!

I figured I make a step by step guide for people having the same issue like me:

- Tools/Apps you need: Kingroot, TWRP for your phone, Flashify, SuperSU

Install Kingroot.

Install Flashify.

Gain root with Kingroot.

Flash TWRP with Flashify.

Reboot into TWRP.

Flash SuperSU.

Reboot into system.

Uninstall Kingroot.

Thanks for your help guys!

[General Questions and Answers] Zeus_Alex:
Thank you lonespeaker for this rom and your hard work.

I have just one question. Is this a 32bit or a 64bit release? I'm asking because i am trying to build a full stock 64bit rom experience and i know it's going to be a long, long walk on the park but i won't give up soon.

If you need something that i can help, just shoot.

Thank you again
[General Questions and Answers] lonespeaker:
It's a 32bit rom as that is what the SU6 comes with as standard. Most of the device tree work I done is simply trial and error from using device tree stuff from a couple of other devices and the cyanogen msm8939-common device tree merged into one device tree and finding it boots.

I abandoned my efforts once I got my oneplus two but now I'm back onboard and now need to fix some glaring problems in the device tree and get something others can work on too.

The biggest problem I am having at the moment is kernel offsets... If I use the ones from the msm8939 boardconfig which are vastly different from the ones the stock SU6 kernel uses, CM12 boots.

If I use the "correct" kernel offsets, then the kernel won't boot, so maybe they aren't correct, so I dunno lol.

anyway good luck with making a 64bit rom.
