Hi, is there a way to install apps on the extern sd card for the elephone p8000?

Just looking at the Xposed files in Eragon Update app and i was wondering are they the latest version?

Also, why do you say use at your own risk for sdcard swap in the main post?
[Elephone P8000] jman0:
The sdcard swap works, but if your sdcard is not fast enough you'll notice a drop in performance. Also, if your sdcard is not a good one, you might drastically shorten its working life just because you're stressing it more. This also happens to good quality ones, but they are less prone to fail.

Modem porting

Hi to all,

After I tried the new stock ROM based on Android Marschmallow I noticed that the modem module works so much better but the GPS doesn't work good.

My question is: it's possible to port the new modem on the LP ROMs? Or maybe are someone working on a custom ROM based on Android 6?

Sorry for my poor english. I wish someone can understand me xD

Have just had a strange issue with 9.9. Has been installed and working fine for about a month now, and before a journey I decided to reboot the phone to give it the best shot if I had to rely on Google Maps to direct me.

It shut down ok, but failed to get past the 2nd dragon logo. Left it for a few minutes, there was no indication anything was happening (phone wasn't warm etc.) and held power button down to turn it off. 2nd boot failed. 3rd time, the phone moved to 'Android is optimising app' and had a number roughly the same as my installed apps so assumed it was just rebuilding cache. Once rebooted, the first two things I noticed were that the weather widget had changed to defaults and that google play services was stopping repeatedly. Cleared the cache for this and the play store worked, although the installed version of Gmail (I forget which it was) refused to load. There was an update for 4 apps so I set the store to sort them out. Mid way through, the phone rebooted itself again and went through 'Android is optimising your apps' but this time with only 2. Finished off the updates. Noticed that 80% of my apps were as though they had just been installed from the store. Apps that i'd chosen to hide using Nova Launcher had reappeared. Since that point and adding in the bits I needed for the evening, there's been no issue with reboots.

While I've not got a clue why the phone failed to come back from the boot in the first place, I am wondering if the combination/method of reboots triggered some sort of 'you've broken everything, let us factory reset things for you' failsafe. Can anyone shed any light? I've not been able to find much for anything other than official roms which have had an OTA and changed things.

thanks.
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
Wow. Never ever had such a behaviour.

Seems like it lost the cache will booting.

I'm using 9.9 for like 5 month since you released it. I often have a similar issue but I can handle that. Usually when I turn off and on bluetooth and it disconnects/reconnects too fast from my bluetooth speaker then (possibly) the audio driver dies and any app which could use media volume also dies. So like most of the apps.

The other *rare* issue when my phone won't fully "get up" from deep sleep and the whole ui lags and it doesn't start any apps. (This is issue is very rare, I noticed it maximum 3 times so

it may caused by an app

)

At these two issues it's highly not recommended to shutdown/reboot the phone from power menu. I tried those and the same behaviour came as described above. So I figured out that you have to hard-reboot the phone by holding the power button for 5-6 seconds. It may optimize some apps after booting but everything will be ok.

BTW right now I'm doing a full reinstall of my phone after 5 months just to cleanup all crap

Then flash the camera drivers from skeleton's 5.1: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591000424939670

Dont forget to wipe cache and dalvik.

Even though panorama and focus dont work very well, both cameras work fine.

OK, thanks for your quick answer.

But with this way and this files I already tried it many times before and it doesn't work for me. Cam shuts down quickly when I try to start it.

I have to wait for other solutions. Sadfully I do not know anything about programing and so I am addicted for instructions... Or try and error.

[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
Wipe cache and dalvik and reflash the kernel. Quick charge is embed in the kernel not rom

[Elephone P8000] Dexmaster:
I can add that I had the same problem with few phones when I had half-dead USB cables or charger ports, if all skeleton1911 said won't help try using same charger with another cable (sturdy ones are often better).

Another problem might be background huge battery eating process, could be GPS tracker or some background worker.

And if nothing else try charging with another charger and cable, but as skeleton1911 said cleaning cache and reflashing is first step and generally good idea.
[Elephone P8000] Garyg124:
If I use my elephone charger it states 6 hours. It took me a while to find a good combination of charger and cable to get a 2 hour charge.
[Elephone P8000] kivulallo:
yes, as everybody said, this very depends on the charger and cable also. if the cable is crappy quality, it won't let much current to flow so the phone will charge slower. i experienced this with my tablet cable. for me, elephone charger and the white thick cable came with it is good.

you can try to charge your phone turned off so you can test if it's a battery drain problem.

consider buying a good cable... maybe some thicker, branded thing. they usually can let 1.5 - 2amps to flow.

Skeleton,

Good to see your still offering support to P8000 users. Have to say I'm really annoyed with Elephone for not giving us a Marshmallow update and just moving on to the next model, that's why I have jumped ship and gone for a Redmi note 3 pro. Sorry, but I don't think I'll be buying another Elephone.

Thanks for all you support over the year. I will continue to visit the forum, looking for the Marshmallow update. But I won't be holding my breath!
[Elephone P8000] Stevethegreat:
The Marshmallow update is out 2 months now: http://xdaforums.com/elephone-p8000/development/rom-android-6-0-stock-rom-t3416692

Also I would advice away from low end Xiaomis. MIUI is one of the heaviest forks, combined with Xiaomi's attitude to be stingy with RAM, even high-ends get travesties like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fj7rppfUDpI

(losing to older, lower end phones in day-to-day performance)

Of course performance is not the end-all. There are better qualities than performance in Xiaomis (cameras, support, features).
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
Yep. I know. And as i said already. I will not update to crappy/awful Android 6 for p8000

[Elephone P8000] ceebs69:
I wasn't dissing the P8000, I loved mine but, If the marshmallow rom you linked here is the best we can get for the P8000 then you shouldn't have bothered to reply to my post. when others make comments like "Is anyone solving the fingerprint issue ??" " not yet. kernel has no support for our fingerprint. no fingerprint hal and no matching fingerprint libs". And that from the end of Augest for a rom that has been out "2 months now".

I also had a oneplus one and a oneplus x so I love oneplus and thanks to the community they still have a range of roms for all four of their phones. Where is the love for Elephone? Not even the manufacturer is giving it the care it deserves.

I don't want to get into a war of words and you may know a bit more about Xiaomi than me but it does make me laugh, anyone can link to a bad review of a phone and call it the gospel truth. A snapdragon processor, 3gb of ram and 32 gig of memory for £125, stingy? I call that a bargain, but if you know of a better deal let me know, at these prices I can afford to buy another one!!
[Elephone P8000] Stevethegreat:
Nah, I was not playing favorites. I own none of the two. I was merely correcting you. You said that there is no Marshmallow, and that's literally incorrect.

As for Xiaomi I just told that they're slow phones (considering the specs), not that they're bad phones. Again I think you misunderstood me.

That's ok, I was referring to the other user (who) said that there is no marshmallow for P8000 (which is literally incorrect).

Having said that, I don't see the benefit of the upgrade anyway. A 5.1.1 release is always a better choice than a bad 6/7 one.
[Elephone P8000] glitchy:
Since reporting http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=68270884&postcount=6675 - this issue, i've avoided using reboot/shutdown via the menu. Strange things still occur though, like the odd app reverting to a freshly installed state with no obvious prompt (Whatsapp is the most recent).

Before I start with doing too much that will stress the storage out and do a complete reflash - is there a recommended scanning tool that will test the integrity of the phone's MMC?

Hello,

I am having problems with this ROM, mainly with random freezes followed by soft reboots (drops back to the eragon splash screen for about 8 - 10 seconds and then presents the phone as though it just turned on)

Can anyone tell me how i can provide log files to hopefully try and resolve this? So far I have tried the following;

Full Wipe and clean install

Wipe of dalvik

Wipe of cache

It only seems to happen when the phone is under load (google maps, web browsing etc) Very rarely does this occur when the phone is idle.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Other than this, the ROM is fantastic, puts shame to the Official ROM from Elephone.

how often do you reboot your phone?

it's good for every android to reboot every day or every second day. i only have this problem if i forget to restart my phone for 2-3 days.

and also kill the apps from recents that you finished using, just to decrease the amount of junk in the ram.
[Elephone P8000] mbedford:
Actual reboot, probably once or twice a week. The epic battery life of this device means that i never seem to get below 35 - 40%, which in turn means that i just never need to reboot.

Anyway, moved from gueste kernel to visionary and fingers crossed, the problem has gone away.

Ill keep you all posted.

imei problem

I am new to this phone and been putting it off but took the plunge and decided to flash a custom rom. I have rooted and flashed many roms on the Samsung's, HTC, Moto's and etc but this is the second MTK chip I have messed with. I tried to flash the Eragon and everything went ok untill I opened the sim card and it wasn't there, neither the imei 1 or 2. I tried the MTK Engineer app from the Google play, dialing the 3646633 and another one directly into the MTK engineer mode and the imei mode. Each time I got the same message when trying to send, unable to send and noticed the radio was off. I flashed the factory rom back on and the imei's came back all fine and dandy. So what did I do wrong? At the AT+ command I wrote AT +EMGR=1.7,"my imei-number" on the app, and directly into the engineer mode. all failed. I wrote the imei once before on this phone for some reason but can't remember why and didn't have problems
