Internet Connection in some Places

Hi Guys,

i have a little Question :) In some Places, my Phone switches the Connection to 3G, but the Internet Speed is very slow, much slower than Edge. When i activate Airplane Mode and deactivate it later, the Connection changes to Edge for a short time, but then it changes back to 3G. This Problem is also in the Standard Elephone Firmware. Is there a fix for the Problem?

Thanks.

Hello Skeleton , and good morning to all . Yesterday I had my first problem with ROM ... Let me explain ...

I started the navigator , suffered hooked the signal ... but when I tried to walk with the car ... did not follow the path and do not take me to the destination. Ride with the 9.0 installs after fullwipe ... you tell me something about how to solve? Thanks as always :)

SPFlashtool works great with Linux.

There are binaries for x86 64 bit Linux at the download section. The only thing to know is: You need to upgrade adb to the latest version. Most distributions like Ubuntu use slightly older versions of adb and they don't work with our our beloved p8k.

Where to Download? AFAIK currently only available as OTA.
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:

[Elephone P8000] jerzyjerzy:
Lucky you.

Well, I tried a number of times (using Linux Mint), no luck. Driver or connection problems every single time.

There are some tutorials on the web for SPFlashtool on Linux, but most of them conclude that solving connection issues in a lot of cases is virtually impossible. Even some really experienced guys gave up trying, and I have been using Linux for not even a year. SPFlashtool always stops for me at this error message or another.

I spent many hours trying to make SPFlashtool work with Linux, and I finally decided it was not worth my time, and it was easier just to use any Windows computer at home for 5 minutes than to keep fixating on Linux.

Reflash Rom and wipe cache and dalvik.

Also make sure that you don't use latest supersu v2.65 and v2.68 are not well.

In my next build I will force v2.49,/ so it don't update itself. That version is fully working and it does its job very good.

if you want look into the stock ota. flash latest stock and update it. you will have a 46mb update.zip.

open it and take look. there is a new app called ConformallyConnectedSpace.apk. and some framework files will be updated.

all apps in system will be the same...(well tey are different in versions numbers.. minor bug fixes! ) will add them too

so i will only use the updated framework files... nothing more!. makes no sense

edit. there is a new option in settings called "warranty" Lol, ....but smartlock dont work

V 9.5.0 is out

Fullrom also via OTA

v9.5
-rebased to 20160217 base with all
*apps
*frameworks
*libs
*boot.img
-embed new gueste kernel v 2.1.0 (3.10.99)
-added bluethooth files from zopo speed 7
-added all apns configs from android 6.0 ( many many more in it now)
-busybox 1.24.1
-googleplay services v 8.7.03 (-248)
-updated gmail
-updated cm browser

-please let me know if the zopo's BT files are okay

- dont use SuperSU v 2.65 or 2.68 BETAS. they have bugs. example: in mixplorer , if you copy some files or replace some files in system ,it could crash the system.

Working SuperSU is v 2.46 . thats the latest Official. (its in my rom)

if you have one of these above SuperSu's just deinstall them in settings/apps/all apps . after deinstall open supersu to update the binary to the present v2.49 again.. if you turn off autoupdate in playstore settings, SuperSU will not update automatically again

[Elephone P8000] GerryGerry01:
Just confirming the update procedure for those who use apps2sd.

Is it like before ie :

0)(Backup data partition) perform full wipe

1) flash 9.5 rom

2) flash apps2sd

3) flash latest kernel

4) (restore data)

5) clear dalvik cache etc

6) reboot
[Elephone P8000] Satbeginner:
Can confirm this works 100%.

As step 7 I added flashing Omniswitch.

I like to have a 'kill all' type of thing...(but that is / may be just me)

Does anybody know if there are changes to expect in WiFi behaviour? (New drivers, software etc. in 9.5?)

Again many thanks to Skeleton1911 !

Hello,

because Elephone offers the 20160217 as OTA, I assumed I could 'dirty flash' Eragon v9.5.

This, because I already was running a previous clean install of Eragon v9.2.

For now it all seems to work good.

I will keep you guys posted.

(I do have this 'roaming' thing with my Spanish Yoigo and Dutch KPN SIM, but a one time flip to Airplane mode and back solves this)

Try the latest Cyanogenmod build (4 now) the bluetooth works perfect :D. so the problem was not the bluetooth stack itself, the problem was the audio codec (aac in our case). so its funny that MTK have the same codec bugs since android 4.1 on MT6589 phones (and maybe also before). so keep eyes on cm12.1, this is much better then the mediatek based firmwares (NEXUS rom and so on)

[Elephone P8000] MikeJT:
Well I've been using v9.5 for a day now - all good ☺

Wi-Fi seems rock solid with no issues and (may just be my imagination) feels faster and more responsive.

Bluetooth is great too - I didn't have drop outs before but in this Rom Bluetooth connects much faster and the sound quality seems better.

GPS - also working well - as always it takes a minute or two to get a good lock as more satellites are located but after that GPS test tells me the accuracy is 4 ft - this is confirmed by looking at Google maps which correctly located me in our conservatory - even the right end of it.

Once again this Rom is awesome!
