You need to update SuperSU and try again.

Happened to me too and solved that way.

---------- Post added at 05:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:56 PM ----------

Happened to me too : I do remove batterystats.bin with Mixplorer after full charged, then i reboot the phone.

This is an old trick which is sometimes criticized but there is less bug doing that and in the worst case, you have nothing to loose to try.

---------- Post added at 06:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:59 PM ----------

I had EXACTLY same issue like with Gmail and later with SMS/MMS apps. Do you know what i did ?

Well you won't like it, for reason i still don't get, i have flashed the latest ROM STOCK then all apps worked.

After that, i have flashed again the latest version of Eragon and now it's working very well, no bug, no crash service like i had sometimes.

Why ? I don't know, but hey, it works now.

In Rom is the v1.24.1 busybox. Last Week it was the latest.. But it could be that now there is a newer on out ...use the app "busybox on rails" to update it.

i use my old sony's 0.8A charger to spare the battery (some people say the charging current doesn't matter, some say it does. i belive it does). it takes about 6-7 hours to charge. the stock 2A elephone charger tops up the phone in 4-5 hours (for me). my experience is when you switch off the phone it charges slower. maybe because there is no software controller running or i don't know.

and remember it has a 4150mAh battery. that's huge. and maybe the stock charger can't give 2 Amps so that extends the charging time. it's chinese who knows...

as skeleton said the battery bug software related and many elephone devices has it not just p8000. i will charge my phone tonight and 2 days later i can tell if it really disappeared or not. right now my phone is in standby for 4 hours with some light usage like notification checking, etc, and it drained from 16% to 5%.

if you want to calibrate, i suggest you to download a battery calibration app with root, drain the battery fully down (after android turns off, turn it back on, wait for second shutdown, then press vol+ and power to get to the preload menu, and let the screen drain the battery) when the screen turns off, go and charge it. don't be afraid, the phone won't turn on for a few minutes because of ultra-low battery voltage. when it's fully charged, turn it on and clear battery data with the app or with cwm recovery.

camera problem

Hi I have installed the 6.5.1 dirty installation ( I hade wipe cash etc) and camera has disappeared. I installed the HTC camera but there is only the gallery app no camera HTC or stock are gone?

Any ideas?

Thanks [MENTION=818144]PegHorse[/MENTION], [MENTION=4626501]skeleton1911[/MENTION] & [MENTION=4444755]kivulallo[/MENTION], you guys really make the difference.

Everything suggests it to be core Elephone Kernle related issue & battery calibration app may help. I have just full charged with device switched off and started the device at 100% and used a battery calibration app to clear the battery data (I missed the full discharge in preload mode and if this doesn't help will try that). I will let you guys know how I get on.

On the same topic of battery charging - can I use my Nexus 4 charger or is it advisable to use the stock charger that came with the device? Also, I find it very difficult to plug in the usb micro leads into the micros usb charging slot on the phone (have to mess around a lot for the old usb cables but the P8000 stock cable is slightly easier). Is this a manufacturing issue or is it common in P8000. I have had it only for 2 days.

Thanks,
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:

Hi, i install the new rom and i have install a second sim card and i have a little question i place my old sim card in slot 2 and install my new sim card in slot 1, and in the top menu i see a "R" on my second sim signal, i haven't this with this sim in slot 1.

A second think well new blue logo at the start of the phone but allways the ele logo at the shutdown.

I install visi0nary's kernel with philz and work fine.
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
"R" is for roaming. Its not real roaming , its a fake "r" . lol

That's a elephone bug in the frameworks files..

Its because the shutdown uses a shutdown animation.

Located in custom/bootani.

Remove the shutdown... And you will be fine. ;)

I fixed the lock screen wallpaper problem in v6.5.1

Use this app to apply a wallpaper. It works now

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=es.leon.agutif.p8000lockscreenwallpaper

That are codes in the kernel . so you can apply and change the virbation strength/value.

But in v6.5.1 I had to remove it again. Because the kernel zimage of v6.5.0 was the problem for bootloops and fingerprint issues...

I have rolled back to the original version (before the new google logo) and I find it happens a bit less with that one, but still happens. The new version seems to break all the time. Didn't stay on stock long enough to know whether it happened on there too.
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
As said . it could be the app itself that has a bug..

If it is a lib file in system i can fix it :D

[Elephone P8000] nikunj87:
+1, just checked, same issue with google search for me as well. This used to happen in the UMI Iron as well so not sure new app issue. On a different topic, is settings->storage->sd card working for you? It seems, switching sd card or not doesnt seem to have any effect for me. Is this rom related, kernel or recovery related or is it stupid me?

BTW I am on 6.5.1 + visi0nary 1.6.1 + philz recovery.

Thanks
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
Settings/storage/sdcard works.

If not check the settings of the app you use..

example :

The camera App don't save photos on the sdcard and only on internal storage.

Look into the app settings . you can change the path to save things in the app itself.

And that is the same with many apps..

Hi Skeleton! I have found a small bug on the "Users" configuration!

If you choose to select a picture from the Gallery to be your profile pic, it will not work! It only works if you take a live picture with the camera.

Other than that, great addition :)

Hi, Just tried this - can confirm it doesn't work when using QuickPic, but I have Google Photos app installed, and this worked:

Choose Picture from gallery -> select picture -> tell it to open it with Google Photos --> crop to correct size --> and it works
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
I have checked it too. And there is no bug.

Dont use quickpic or and other gallery.

Go to contacts app (not the dialer)

Tap on your or an user .

Select a picture. (The android inbuild gallery opens, its with white background an a slider on the left side) don't choose quickpic etc.. Just select the picture you want.

Done ;)

Hi, i'm running now version 5.9.2 and i have a question about google play.

Some apps you can't install anymore (not compatible), with the official version is there no problem.

I there a solution for that problem? Change name device or discription? how?
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
Tell me which apps you mean .

The thing is that the playstore checks the dpi Of a devive in Google frameworks.

P8000 has a dpi density of 480 . its located in the build.prop..

If you change that value . some apps will say they are incompatible...

Gesendet von meinem Elephone P8000 mit Tapatalk
[Elephone P8000] geheimke:
tomtom go or icoyote for example there are more apps.
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
Both are OK.

I think you changed the build.prop LCD density value..

Look into system/build.prop

In the middle there is a line

ro.sf.lcd_density=480

If it don't say 480.

Change the value to it

Save and reboot.

You can also reset your google account. By deleting data of play store and Google services (in settings/app/all apps.)

After remove your google account and reboot

Gesendet von meinem Elephone P8000 mit Tapatalk
[Elephone P8000] geheimke:
Hi, no the build.prop is ok, other solution?
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
Said it above. Fully remove your Google account ,and wipe data of Google play store and googleservices.. reboot and set it up again

And you dont use the stock play store.(because it is inverted)

Could also be related to it..

Camera will not focus in banking apps

I apologize for kind of double posting but I can finally access this area of the forum and ask the guru. I use two Canadian banking apps which allow me to deposit cheques by capturing images. Neither app will focus on the document. I know there have been issues with the stock rom which, according to Elephone have been fixed :laugh: I have deleted the System>app>camera and tried the other avilable cameras with no change so I am now back on Open camera. I assume a problem remains in the camera driver. Guru do you have any suggestions (other than using my old phone to do my banking).

For my htc camera port look here http://gofile.me/Direct.php?host=83.215.217.150:5000&path=/fbsharing/fytByMKV&type=external

Camera focus works in latest v6.5.1 , did you tried it? Please report back

And to all : that the banking apps dont work is because of the root and supersu in custom Roms.

When i have time in the Next days, i will make an unroot file as flashable zip for all users with that problem :)

Gesendet von meinem Elephone P8000 mit Tapatalk
[Elephone P8000] bluiis48:
Thanks, I am on 6.5.1 . I flashed the HTC camera port again without deleting the camera in system because I last installed Open camera from play store so it is just an app. There is no change but with more experimenting I find that the focus is OK when I am close to the document (6cm or so) but when I pull back far enough to get the cheque in the mandatory frame the autofocus starts to act up and just has trouble deciding where to lock on. I don't think this is fixable within the rom, probably an Elephone kernel thing. Glad I don't have the bank checking for root issue. Thanks for the fast response, sorry to take up your valuable time.
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
Your welcome.

Well the focus works. You are right. The focus is not that good as in near scale..

But that's the hardware I think. It is not rom or kernel related.. On stock or flyme rom its the same..the 13megapixel sensor is not that good..

[Elephone P8000] bluiis48:
Thanks, but within the banking apps I do not have a choice of cameras, the camera function is built in to the app, so it is dependent on hardware and the driver (sorry if not correct term, I am am windows guy for many years). I think Skeleton nails it correctly with hardware being the major problem despite the high megapixel count that encourages us to buy the phone megapixels ain't everything I guess.

How is the wifi problem going for you ?
