Dann it, GPS doesn't work. Sorry for the false info first. Fingerprint is also not so smooth like before. Edit your post with the dirty flash advertising :p

What's going on with Tapatalk? XDA forum doesn'twork! Sb else with that issue?
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
Seems Like a fullwipe is needed.. Sry guys. Did not noticed..

Tapatalk update is crap. It dont connect to the tapatalkServers..

For now i use xda app. XD
[Elephone P8000] CodeParadise:
GPS doesn't work here too. I also had problems with the keyboard not playing well with the lockscreen but it has settled now. Having problems with Email sync too.

Anyone confirm whether GPS works after a full wipe? I'm still backing up my apps and data.
[Elephone P8000] jman0:
I may try a fullwipe too, since my fingerprint sensor doesn't work most of the time after dirty flashing 5.8 over 5.6, while it was really smooth before. I'll report back later after I flash again
[Elephone P8000] arnicika:
Skeleton already did confirm. He full wiped and it works
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
thank you guys
[Elephone P8000] arnicika:
Gmail works after reboot once then no more. I recognized, the apps updating after flashing comes twice. Was in 5.6 too. Normal? I reboot due to gmail, then app optimization started once more, but with less apps. First 117 now 98. Strange
[Elephone P8000] MTIH1992:
Yeah I had that strange dissapearing app quirk - 130 down to 98 too. Weird.
[Elephone P8000] jman0:
I just flashed again after a full wipe. Fingerprint sensor is working smoothly again.
[Elephone P8000] jknarf:
Google Maps is working, because it uses all other available location data too. But every other pure GPS related app is not. GPS test shows no satellite, Ingress don't find location, Sygic also says inaccurate gps.

And I did a full wipe with extra everyhing.

Cheers
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
OK thanks. . i will look into it after my work.. (Its weird .because i have not touched the files)
[Elephone P8000] CodeParadise:
Same here. After a full wipe, Google Maps works (getting location data from network connections) but GPS essentials App doesn't get a satellite fix. Its inbuilt compass App doesn't work too.
[Elephone P8000] arnicika:
Hmm damn it. Should have wait for you all beta testers ;) don't change a running system my father tells me all the time. Just joking...
[Elephone P8000] Damoedge:

I did a full wipe and install versie 5.8 and now Google account synchronization is not working. GPS does not work either.
[Elephone P8000] arnicika:
You have to push both simultaneously. Exactly at the same time, not one after the other. A little bit of trying is always not a bad idea...;)
[Elephone P8000] mhamzas:
I've tried it in all ways but nothing happens. :confused:
[Elephone P8000] vladoots:
For me it works by pressing vol- first, but only slightly. I've practiced almost a full day until I got to find the sweet spot and master it. :)

GPS works flawlessly on my device.

Fingerprint scanner has some peculiar issues: it is somewhat less accurate (but that can be only my impression) and sometimes it just dies. Same goes for dt2w - it will work until it doesn't. Both will resume working after reboot. For a while. :)
[Elephone P8000] :
Confirm,Gps not work
[Elephone P8000] urnie538:
Did some testing. Finger print hardly works when device is locked,it works perfectly in the settings menu.

Hoe are we doing on fixing the GPS problem? I got stuck in traffic today for an hour and half cause my phone didn't have GPS.. Need a quick fix ☺
[Elephone P8000] jknarf:
Let me guess: No Backup?

Maybe it's enough to dirty flash 5.6 over 5.8. But I really would wipe cache, dalvik and system.

If you come in trouble. The only choice is to fectory reset and pls wipe system.

Good luck

P.S.: Or wait till skeleton1911 fix it.

[Elephone P8000] feco76:
disconnecting calls with my ear trough the case's clock window (Eragon 5.6 ROM)

Hi Everybody!

I just bought the phone and to be honest I did not used it with stock ROM.

I updated to Eragon 5.6.

My problem, when I am in a call, and close the case, then in the little round window the active call appears.

There is the red phone icon as well to disconnect the call.

That seems fine till... I put the phone next to my head this little window don't gets inactive

and I disconnect the calls with my ear of course!

This is really strange...

Since I did not used it with stock ROM, I would like really appreciate answer from who using stock version,

whether this problem in stock Rom exists or not?

I noticed that after restart the phone, the very first call works good. This means the clock window stays blank, I can't

accidentally stop the call with my head, ear.

After the first call finished from the second one, the above written problem comes for and stays :(

Somebody else has the same problem?

Thank you very much!

Please also look at the reported mail sync issues. I did full wipe and also uave problems receiving exchange mail.

Edit: i think it has something todo witht the 4g not working correct anymore, anyone else have this problem.?
[Elephone P8000] CodeParadise:
Yeah. I reported Email sync problem and someone else confirmed it (problem with his Google Account sync). You have confirmed it too. I don't think it is because of 4G. Even on WIFI, I had that problem. Anyway, I had a nandroid backup of an earlier ROM version so I reverted to it for now until skeleton1911 uploads version 5.9

[Elephone P8000] Cozer:
Hi TS, thanks for the ROM. I flash 5.8 too when I get this phone.

Some bug I face: after restart the widget cannot display correctly. After install new apps from play store no icon found in menu or desktop. GPS for google map seem working correctly but not on other 3rd party apps (mention by other user). Fingerprints unlock not working in times, when can't detect finger it will not pop msg so got to keep trying till it unlock. So far this the bug I face.

Side ques: I try to flash b stock ROM but it keep saying mdsum error, still I cont to flash it just abort updating not sure y.
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
yep. i fixed that issues with apps in launcher/appdrawer , gps etc....

please patience one hour.

and if you want to flash the stock rom you have to use sp flashtool not via recovery.. (thats why you get a md5checksum error)
[Elephone P8000] MTIH1992:
Anyone know how to enable Dt2w (Double tap to wake) in this ROM? I've heard a few people mention this feature is in there but doesn't seem to work on a new flash. Does it need to be enabled in settings? Thanks
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
rom dont support it.

you need a custom kernel for it.

like blueflames visionary kernel.

but at the moment only my changes in kernel support init.d...

if you flash another kernel you will have dt2w but no init.d support..;)
[Elephone P8000] MTIH1992:
Ah I see, understood - its all about the init.d support for me :)
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:

About the screen flickering problem...

It used to occasionally flicker badly on stock (up until the 1014 base, not flashed by me) and also on Eragon up until 5.8 beta. Then it stopped, despite the beta having other problems. With the official 5.8 it started to flicker again. Then, with 5.9, it stopped once more. Without me being a developer, I smell a possible permanent fix, Skeleton! :) But you will have to (once again) figure it out, my friend, for I am way out of my depth with this.

[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
Bootloader? You mean video codec and video player..

Yes I know that bs player is free etc..

I choose it because I removed the stock gallery. That stock gallery cames with all video drivers.. If you want to uninstall bsplayer look into system/priv-app

Thank you for this new ROM skeleton.

Juste a question, what is the better kernel for this ROM ?
[Elephone P8000] CodeParadise:
The kernel that comes with Eragon ROM 5.9 as the other custom kernels don't support init.d yet.
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
There is no better kernel. It depends on what you prefer..

If you mean the stablest one. That's the stock kernel in my rom

Gesendet von meinem Elephone P8000 mit Tapatalk
[Elephone P8000] Mabool:
Thank for your answers, just i don't know exactly what is the init.d but this rom is so good i'll no change the kernel. Maybe elephone will activate the dt2w in the future.
[Elephone P8000] Stainy:
I've been using every rom so far without issue, but on 5.9 I put a second sim card in for the first time since stock rom (where it worked fine) and whilst it's recognised and has an IMEI, it appears to have no signal. Anyone else got the same issue?

Also, anyone else lose haptic vibrations when in vibrate only (but not totally silent) mode?
[Elephone P8000] tiltkoko83:
My kernel uses the same init.d script that Eragon uses. I think I can say tiltkernel is the fastest kernel to the P8000 now.

The latest version has no bugs that I know, you should try it out:)

With Eragon and my own little kernel I think the P8000 is a great phone!

Keep up the good work skeleton1911

Check your APN settings. I had that issue. :) While the settings looked legit, they were outdated (although actually being updated by the SIM card itself, but with older values).

Haptic vibes are dependent on the profile, they're not available by default all across the spectrum. You have to enable them (if disabled) in the profile of your choice - although I'm not sure that will work; I keep my phone in only two states: full on or full off.

I don't have a problem with it. But it could be a base bug.

Please look into your root folder.

Are there two folders called :

Protect_s

If yes what files are in there?

Maybe I can fix it

edit: just uploaded a fix for it .

https://www.dropbox.com/s/1luse5wi0eynt30/simcardFIX.zip?dl=0

not flashable. (dont work in root folder)

do this:

1. extract the zip to your sdcard

2.place the two folders into root folder of your phone

3. look if they have the right permissions ( first folder rwxwrx--- second folder full permission rwxrwxrwx , files have rw-rw-rw)

For all use the mixplorer!
