If all else fails, remove sim card and clean both sim card contacts and sim card holder pins - reinsert sim card and voila now works when both locked and unlocked!

I installed the new version today and got nice problems:

My SD-Card is gone under v 10.5.

I tried to reflash v 10.5 but with the SD-Card in the Handy TWRP is not starting and without SD-Card there is no internal SD?

And actual no root!

Any suggestion?
[Elephone P8000] bluiis48:
Start from the beginning with SPflashtool ?
[Elephone P8000] Paulpatzer:
I got it now. SD Card seems to be killed by the phone during flashing. :(

With an other SD Card the flashing process was successful and my phone is at v10.5 now. :)

So I have only a killed SD Card with undeleteble but readable private content and write protection on it. :(

Has someone an other solution than a hammer to get these data deleted for guaranty purposes?

Hi, my P8000 broke down, did not want to boot up (installed ROM is 7.2). I run Philz Touch and Factory Reset => Wipe Cache => Wipe Dalvik / ART Cache => Clean to Install a New ROM => Install zip from sdcard1 => Eragon_P8000_V10.5.0.zip. The installation starts and after a few seconds the smartphone restarts. And so every time. I have tried another memory card and internal memory - every time restart.

I will add that the smartphone is not detected in Windows, it is not in the device manager (I do not mean drivers).

I also tried to do a backup to sdcard at first, but also restarted in the process.

Am I doing something wrong? Is the smartphone only in the trash?

How to get back to Eragon

Hi all,

I removed one of the SIM cards and phone start asking for a pin code that I didn't remember, so I flash the phone (by mistake to android 6). Now i can't get back to Eragon, because the phone loses the baseband and I cannot set the IMEI. Only when I flash to android 6 I can get the baseband back and set the IMEI. How can I downgrade to Android 5.1 and get eragon back? Can I backup the baseband and IMEI without root? Because I cannot root the Elephone in android 6.
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
Just flash via flashtools the preloader and Lk file oft Android 5.1 (use the same as my ROM base)

Then flash my ROM in recovery with full wipe.

You can restore the imei in the mtk developer settings.. (Easiest way is to use the app for it)

search this thread you will find the procedure of how you restore it

Gesendet von meinem Elephone P8000 mit Tapatalk
[Elephone P8000] PreTenDer666:
Thank you for the reply skeleton1911 :)

Sorry, I didn't understand. Is the preloader the orignal android that comes with the elephone (K05TS-A.A.vA0V.E1.150907)? I'm asking because when I flash the "original android", then the baseband is lost and I can't define the IMEI even in the "engineer mode"

I'm sure that i'm doing something wrong, I just don't know what.
[Elephone P8000] PreTenDer666:
Eragon installed

Hi again Skeleton1911,

I follow your instruction from here: https://xdaforums.com/elephone-p8000/help/how-to-guideline-install-mtk-drivers-t3334698

After installing the K05TS-A.A.vA0L.E1.150725 I got the baseband back.

Then I installed PhilZ_recovery_P8000_v2 (the TWRP didn't got installed. Every time I tried to go to recovery the android image appeared with a ! in red)

With the PhilZ Recovery I did a full wipe and installed the last version of Eragon.

Then used the code *#*#6813#*#* to define my IMEI's.

I only have two questions.

The baseband in the Eragon is version v16.p5 and I see that the last stock rom had v16.p10, is there a significant diferent between them?

I remember that you said that that we should use TWRP to flash Eragon. Since I flashed with PhilZ is that a problem somehow?

Finally just want to thank you for your help and all the wonderful post's that you have, sharing your knowledge with all of us. Thank you Skeleton1911
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
1. i changed the based again because we had baseband bug in the past.. that 16p5 solved it.

2.philz is not able to flash advanced stuff like magisk etc in the right way. thats why twrp is important.

Was anybody able to encrypt the internal storage?

I'm stuck on:

E/Cryptfs ( 381): unmounting /data failed: Device or resource busy
I/Cryptfs ( 381): Maybe kernel need more time to release resource, try to wait for a moment again.
E/Cryptfs ( 381): Giving up on unmount /data (Device or resource busy)

I've tried almost everything I could find here or elsewhere with no luck. There seems to be no process left using anything on /data mountpoint. The first run of

vdc cryptfs enablecrypto inplace pin ...

manages to terminate all processes using it. I'm able to unmount /data manually. However, a subsequent run still fails with the same message.

As a side-note, I suspected selinux getting in a way, so I attempted to disable it and failed. It seems like the kernel is compiled with enforcing mode permanently on. I failed to find a config for the used kernel, to verify my suspicion but I failed again. Sigh.

Any suggestion greatly appreciated.

By the way, for those that are fine using this ROM without the encryption, do you at least use some per-file/per-directory encryption solution for sensitive data or you don't care at all? I'm just trying to find a good excuse for keeping it unencrypted.

Now Please Modify Marshmallow rom for P 8000

Hello, Skeleton,

Thanks for your great works and developments with Eragon rom. I must say that it is only because of your work, I still persists with the Elephone P 8000, otherwise I might have quit the forum because the software development for this phone is few when compared to other models.

Just for curiosity, I have installed the Marshmallow rom for this phone , it is smooth, , compatible with xposed modules I was using before. But it lacks so many tweaking. Also not compatible with Substratum.

It is nearly 6 months after its release, nobody has modified it till now.

So I humbly request you to develop a better rom out of this stock rom with lots of tweaking like Eragon Rom especially including a theme engine as in CM rom

Thanking You

Ok, just found the complete guide ..... ;)

But I still have 2 questions:

What do you mean, quote:

[P.s: if you run into a problem e.g bootloop. (Full rom dont work well with our custom roms, related to its partition.img) You could flash the stock ROM 02150725 to solve it ]

And how much do you estimate the risk of losing my IMEI? Because that's too much for me to fix it :)
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
That's what it says. You have a bootloop then flash the stock ROM again. I wrote this because of the integrated custom kernel.

The chance to lose the imei is not high. Btw this is not a bug of my rom. It has to do with the flashing process. This can happen with every custom rom. But you can restore it with twrp (make a nvram backup before flashing)

Or with engineer mode.

Hi, Want to thank you so much for completely changing the use of this phone. There hasn't been another rom even close to this. I do have a final question for you though. I'm starting to get so many apps now failing to start because I'm rooted. Is there a way to fully unroot, magisk as well. I don't need root, but would prefer to have access to these apps. Have tried every combination of supersu / phh superuser / magisk, magisk manager / magisk hide, and all fail.

Thanks in advance
