Small request, are you able to change the stock DPI to 400? Think it looks way better on this phone. Otherwise again a great update :D
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
You can do it yourself

1. with mixplorer open root/system/build.prop

2. search for

ro.sf.lcd_density=480

3. change it to

ro.sf.lcd_density=400

Save and reboot.

Notice: some apps in play store will not work anymore . because Googles framework service knows that this is a 480dpi device.

If you change it. That can cause issues with apps. Not compatible anymore etc..

So can you guide me how can I use CRICKET WIRELESS sim on this phone.

I've just moved to USA 3 days back and I've tried T-Mobile sim but its not working.

I've also tried zip file you provided on this thread : http://xdaforums.com/elephone-p8000/development/rom-p8000-version-b-baseband-l1-mp3-t3322615

But no luck.

Currenlty I am using stock Rom with Latest Gueste kernel.

Looking forward for your help.

Thanks

So is there any way I can restore my data while flashing stock ROM version B ?

Will titanium work ?

I am not having my country sim working here so I don't wanna lose my whatsapp and other similar apps configurations.
[Elephone P8000] Idakis:
I can't choose default apps. For example if I want Firefox as the default from now on how can I do that from this system dialog?

The option for always is only valid for the first entry. If I hit Firefox it works but I am not able to set it as default.
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
Titanium backup ONLY OF DATA PARTITION

Or in customrecovery . make a data partition backup. After you flashed the version b rom , you can restore it again

(Notice: don't flash stock recovery or data.img with flashtools. Otherwise that backup will be deleted..)

[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
In cm browser is an option , where you can force it to be the standard or not.. Take a look there.. Maybe that's why

[Elephone P8000] Idakis:
No it is the same problem for many file types if not all. Looks like the chooser dialog is somehow hosed.

Any idea on how to fix it since I guess it is only a problem on my phone or is it in everybodys?
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
To be save .

1. Make a titanium backup and copy it to PC.

Just in case something goes wrong..

2.. Don't flash recovery and data with flashtools.

Look into my guideline

[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
Yes! Usrdata. Uncheck it and recovery.

After you flashed it. Go into recovery and look if your custom recovery is still there.

(Sometimes it don't work, even if it is unchecked)

Or better way:

Copy your custom recovery.IMG into the ROM folder you want to flash. That will replace the stock one.

And delete the usrdata (data.IMG)

Then use flashtools and load the scatter.txt...

Gesendet von meinem Elephone P8000 mit Tapatalk
[Elephone P8000] Idakis:
OK I'll try that.

At least I know it's only here.... I would hate it to have to do a full wipe though.

Thx for your help.
[Elephone P8000] mhamzas:
What if I just use philz to flash the zip, you provided on that US band thread ?

Btw, I didn't get one thing.

custom recovery.IMG = custom.img and recovery.img.. Right ? From where I'll get them from my Phone ?
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
http://xdaforums.com/elephone-p8000/help/how-to-guideline-install-mtk-drivers-t3334698

I thought you know .

Look also into my guideline thread You will see the custom recoverys..like philz or twrp.

And all you need about flashing it etc..

And you don't need to flash my zip with the baseband version b.

It will not work.

Just make a data backup as said and flash the stock us rom . then restore the backup via titanium or recovery..

And now back to topic related on this rom.[emoji14]

I wanted to ask if you also have some small lags in games still being octacore and 3 GB Ram? example clash royale?
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
I dont play games that needs high performance.. But with good games it could Start to lag.. Of course we have a 3gb and octacore device.. But you can not compare it with a snapdragon qualcom with 2.GHz.

[Elephone P8000] dormilonX:
First of all thanks a lot for Your recent release of Eragon plus all of Your tutorials / explanations about how to wipe/flash/install it from a new user. :good:

Until now everything seems to work great for me with Your new release except one detail: when I choose SD card as preferred storage this setting seems to be ignored by several apps.

OSMAnd~ kept saving maps into phone storage until I found an option to change the storage path within the app settings. Google translate also keeps saving new language files (offline translation) to phone storage.

Am I the only one experiencing this kinda problem ?
[Elephone P8000] edgarmorales72:
i have a problem clash royale It goes with lag, in other cell it was going great and the elephone going slow up when he pulls out the cards :(
[Elephone P8000] Idakis:
I was playing that one for a while some weeks ago. No problem for the P8000, the game is not very demanding regarding hardware.

I suspect that was network / server slowdown. Since the game is real time it depends also on the network speed of your opponent, server lag etc. but the phone in general plays it well.
[Elephone P8000] alitaker:
Fingerprint unlock

Hi skeleton1911, thank you for your wonderful job.

I have a question though, hope this has not been asked before, but didn't find it.

If you unlock with the fingerprint, you cannot go directly to a notification event.

When double tapping on a notification and unlocking with PIN, slide or gesture, the phone would open the app of the notification in the tapped event (email, sms, ... etc).

When using the fingerprint, the phone would just go to the last used app. Even when using the backup pin (of the fingerprint) it woks as expected, but not with the fingerprint.

Is this an Android problem?

Is this our P8000?

And... is this fixable?

Thanx
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
Hi.

Well first of all this is not an issue. And it is not fixable.

The FP is only there to unlock the phone. Nothing more...but I hope after we have android 6 with its Google FP source this is possible :)

Gesendet von meinem Elephone P8000 mit Tapatalk
[Elephone P8000] BlueFlame4:
That is because of the hacky fingerprint implementation of Silead/MediaTek/Vanzo/Elephone. You're right when you say that it should open the app. Unfortuntately there's little we can do, at least for stock based ROMs.
[Elephone P8000] kivulallo:
I will break the 21hours of silent. :D

I have recognized a minor bug: when you scroll, the speed is increasing as you scroll more and more... but when it reaches the top of the list with the maximum speed, it bounces back and scrolls backwards with full speed OR it starts to slow after the bounce. when it bounces back and continues with full speed it will reach the other end, bounce back and start again as far as it slows down sometime.

i noticed this in Torrnado app, but you can test it in XDA app timeline: load some stories back in the time then scroll up fast.

NOTE: this is a minor bug and may be ignorable I can live with it, but i often meet with this when scrolling my list in Torrnado.

You can play with it :D
[Elephone P8000] jman0:
That's something I've also seen in the stock rom and also in other phones, so I'm not sure it's a bug or an obscure android "feature".
[Elephone P8000] aaron.hossain75:
I hope you're familiar with Oneplus company ..they have released their Marshmallow update for the OnePlus 2 device :) Its very sad that Elephone is slow as hell..I'm hoping to get the update also your build of Marshmallow soon , Is there any way you could contact them & ask them to give you the Beta build of Marshmallow for the Elephone P8000? That could help you to make the 6.0 sooner than they're doing .....

Well, I can live with that. Was just experimenting and found the FP very nice and convenient, so left it on. But this misbehaviour is a little bit annoying.

Hi skelaton, thank for the awesome rom. I've been using this rom since october and love it. Few days ago, I tried using vr with elephone p8000, and it seem that gsensor is off. Then I found this "MTK engineering mode" apk for tweaking this phone. Maybe you can look into this in making this phone much better. Who know maybe you can do a much better job than I do in tweaking.

Cheers from malaysia.

Can fast charge be supported. I get all different charge times showing depending on obviously charger and even the USB cable. The worst charger I've found from the ones I have is the elephone one. If I use that and the supplied cable it takes ages to charge and if I try to use my phone whilst charging the screen becomes unresponsive or clicks on all types of stuff as if the cable isn't shielded ( it did this before Eragon) Thanks
[Elephone P8000] kmarci:
If the touchscreen is useless while charging, the charger and/or the cable is crap. Don't use it.

Btw: do you know guys, if P8000 supports quickcharge? I usually charge it with my Nillkin charger and cable, but yesterday I charged it with a QC supported charger. I didn't really watched it, but maybe it charged faster with that.
[Elephone P8000] kivulallo:
as i know it does not support fast charge. it depends on the charger. 2amp chargers are fill the phone more quickly. i don't have problems with the elephone charger. it charges my phone in 2.5-3 hours which is accurate: about 1.7-2amps charging current and 4.1Ah battery... plus its fills slower after 80% as well as most li-ions.

i'm using my sony charger which is 0.8Amps. charges up in 5-6hours and this is also accurate.

Maybe that can help the users with led, i can't test it for led because i have the 1st batch of p8000, but it's very useful, i use it for flash and vibration notification, and you can make many many configurations.

Have a nice night.

[Elephone P8000] kivulallo:
i was able to change the led's state by writing /sys/class/leds/button-backlight/brightness

i had to ONLY overwrite the numbers and do not delete the "return" thing after it because it will be invalid, and android will rewrite the value.

also do not press any touch buttons during this because those are trigger actions and they will also overwrite the state.

i wasn't able to change the brightness: value 0 is off, anything above up to 255 is max brightness...

the given value is valid until the next trigger action.

i done it with es file explorer and es note editor only with touch screen actions.

EDIT: my brother's phone is also an mtk device. he has faster breathing so i checked his device and he has delay_on and delay_off files in /sys/class/leds/red (his red light was breathing)

the files had millisec values with rw-rw-r perms...

we have "button-backlight" for button actions and charging, and "red" for notifications(?)

i know maybe these are already discovered but if not then it might help...

i also wrote a little bash script to turn off the with the above action and it worked.

Yep, the feature is there, it asks when you pair with a new Bluetooth device too. It's just that getting to the smart lock menu manually is impossible, so you have to wait for the phone to offer it to you via notification.

If there was some way we could see what that notification triggered when clicked, we could create some kind of shortcut to that function.
