I searched on google for you. And also didn't found anything.. Just so many stuff for the xperia z . but not x.

But maybe it is the same procedure.

Take out the zimage from the x kernel and replace the zimage of the xperia z recovery with the x zimage..

Then you have a recovery and you can root it with SuperSU... Takes 2 minutes ;) :D

[MENTION=4626501]skeleton1911[/MENTION] I added the missing camera driver to my kernel with https://github.com/visi0nary/android_kernel_elephone_p8000/pull/5

Somehow yesterday the mobile network stopped working on my wifes elephone p8000. She is using alditalk and the eplus/O2 network. It always shows roaming and is not getting any mobile data.
[Elephone P8000] silentdude:
Well, this is strange.

Now it suddenly works again.

Perhaps there was an app breaking it?

But it still don't autopair with my codaclick button, which I have mentioned earlier.

Happy anyway.
[Elephone P8000] kivulallo:
hello again!

just a random question i was wondering on...

do you think there's any way to bring 5ghz wifi on this device? i saw that mt6753 has dual band wifi, and on p8000's mainboard there are 2 empty antenna slots...

on the other hand i don't see any sign of 5ghz in the software altough we already have a ported driver from another device.

or mediatek lies with the "dual-band"? :D

does the new p8000 support 5g?
[Elephone P8000] :
No, P8000 V1 and V2 has only 2,4GHz WiFi - but the Meditek-Chip supports 5GHz. Here you can read it on page No.12 : http://www.datasheet-pdf.com/datasheet-download.php?id=953806

[MENTION=4626501]skeleton1911[/MENTION]: Can you rebase the next version to 0412 and leave the settings in standard green color. It is blue and green mixed all over the ROM...
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
Never. I hate that green... And if you have a mixed Rom.. Well ,then dont play with the system :D

By default it is all blue

Impossible to restore a backup with Easy Backup

Hello and congrats for this piece of work! Simply fantastic! My P8000 came back to life!

I have a bug I would like to report. After installing Eragon 9.9.0 it's impossible for me to restore a previous backup done with Easy Backup. When I try to restore the Data, the app just keeps saying loading but nothing happens. Any idea on how to fix this? Thank you
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
Sry . i have no idea.

Use titanium backup in the future . its better and it works

Gesendet von meinem P9000 mit Tapatalk
[Elephone P8000] kivulallo:
I use Titanium and rarely it does the same thing. Rarely...

I usually update or reinstall my busybox, reboot, maybe reauthorize root access for the app and it fixes the problem, but I don't know how Easy Backup works so no guarantee on that.

busybox is preinstalled in Eragon but I update it time to time. It worth a try...:laugh:
[Elephone P8000] kmarci:
I don't know why, but somehow the kernel keeps my phone awake, and it drains the battery.

I use Eragon 9.8 flashed clean. It worked without a problem for 2 months, but now this. Do you have an idea what to do?

I rebooted for several times, but it didn't help.
[Elephone P8000] kmarci:
Nobody here? ?
[Elephone P8000] kivulallo:
I want to help you but I can't really... I had/have the same problem. If you read my lonely post series in the gueste kernel thread you can see it :D

Nowadays I got my phone to partially sleep or randomly stay awake by uninstalling something. I had one game with disabled push notifications and some apps that should not keep my phone awake but they wasn't in use in a while so I got rid of them... So now my phone randomly sleeps or not... Attached some screenshots (resized). One was shot now.

I'm playing with application auto-start right now and my charger. I charge my phone turned off and when it's done I turn it on while it's on charger... I will try turning on without charger or something...

By the way Nova Prime is on sale right now: http://www.androidauthority.com/great-apps-games-sale-nova-prime-twilight-pro-anomaly-699542/

Camera Problem

Hey Guys.

I just got my p8000 and first thing i did is flash Eragon v 9.9.

Now i noticed that my frontcam is upside down, and I cant switch to my maincam at all. Tryed many other camera apps.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance
[Elephone P8000] Trashware:
You've got a new model with new cam hardware. Guestekrnl is currently unable to deal with this. Try to install Stock Kernel from March or April and flash these drivers which were posted by Skeleton1911 at the German androidhilfe forum: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591000424939670
[Elephone P8000] TeaCup215:
So I cant use Eragon right now?

Do you have a link for the march or april version of the stock kernel/rom i need?
[Elephone P8000] Trashware:
You can. It's a kernel issue caused by missing sources of appropriate drivers. Flash this kernel (also provided by Skeleton1911 at the German androidhilfe forum): https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591020540821576

As I can see, you are German: http://www.android-hilfe.de/index.php?threads/776788/
[Elephone P8000] TeaCup215:
Thanks bro.

So you are saying that I can keep Eragon, I just need to flash this from recovery?

Or do I have to wipe everything and install your file + stock rom?
[Elephone P8000] Trashware:
No need to wipe. Flash the kernel and the drivers from recovery and everything works fine. There is a new thread at the German androidhilfe forum as posted above.
[Elephone P8000] TeaCup215:
its a .img file? I only can flash zip files right? I know I am a noob, but please help once again.
[Elephone P8000] Trashware:
Switch from zip to img in the settings of your recovery. Which recovery do you use?
[Elephone P8000] TeaCup215:
There is an option for that in recovery mode? or what do you mean?

I cant flash img files via recovery, right?
[Elephone P8000] Trashware:
You can. Have a look at the settings of your recovery. Once again: Which recovery?
[Elephone P8000] TeaCup215:
I did it. I guess. Now it asks me with partition i want to flash it in.

"Boot" was hopefully the right one. testing right now....

TWRP_Recovery_P8000_v2
[Elephone P8000] Trashware:
Yes, boot is the right one. Don't forget to wipe caches.
[Elephone P8000] TeaCup215:
I wiped Dalvik cache and cache... Its rebooting right now.

... allright. cam still upside down and main cam not working....

so... let me make this clear....

I will wipe everything now....

After that i am going to flash eragon 9.9 in recovery wipe dalvik and cache and after that i will flash the boot.img that you gave me in recovery and choose "boot" and wipe dalvik and cache again

that should do it right?

btw... is there going to be a official eragon release zip with all this stuff fixed? any announcements?

Have a look at androidhilfe, as I see you are German. We are trying to solve this issue. There are only two testers. I'm one of them. Feel free to participate, see the link above.

Stop. You forgot to install the drivers as posted above.
[Elephone P8000] TeaCup215:
ahhh ... I see... so what drivers are you talking about? where to get them? and at which point to i flash them? last?
[Elephone P8000] Trashware:
Posted above! Install the drivers and everything works fine.
[Elephone P8000] TeaCup215:
yeah. got the cam test stuff ready... at which point do i flash them? last? or before the boot.img?
[Elephone P8000] Trashware:
Doesn't matter.
[Elephone P8000] TeaCup215:
Allright. Will do. Thank you very much....

If skeletooooor will include this into the superb modded kernel and make my life easier by installing only one eragon zip i will donate him a fortune.
[Elephone P8000] Trashware:
Elephone should open their recent sources to merge the driver changes with Guestekrnl. We are all waiting for this. ☺☺☺
[Elephone P8000] TeaCup215:
Okay. I am tilted now... fml...

I wiped everything...

flashed eragon

dalvik/cache wipe

flashed cam_test

dalvik/cache wipe

flashed boot.img to "boot" partition...

dalvik/cache wipe....

reboot... still not working... my cam wont even start now.... did i miss something?
[Elephone P8000] Trashware:
No. The procedure described by you worked fine for me and the second tester. Maybe you should compare your cam data with the ones presented at androidhilfe (see link above) and as you are German participate on this thead. Hopefully these guys at Elephone didn't change the hardware again.
[Elephone P8000] TeaCup215:
It worked with the HTC Galarie and Camera... not with the stock apps... but now my network is not working correctly... for now I am just using eragon with no changes and wont use my cam....

will watch this case closely... in a week or so i am texting you.... thanks for the effort.

Is there anything I can do right now, to get the RIGHT stock rom (with kernel)
[Elephone P8000] Trashware:
Have a look at bbs.elephone.hk. Latest Stock is from April. You should post the data of your cam here in order to get your issues solved.
[Elephone P8000] kivulallo:
i don't know what you have tested or not so i'm sorry this is wrong but gueste kernel has a new version which includes a driver for the new camera. although Stefan said it maybe won't work, you should try it. Eragon 9.9 has the older kernel without the new camera drivers.
[Elephone P8000] Trashware:
The new version of Guestekrnl doesn't work here with the new cam hardware.

[Elephone P8000] jamos316:
Titanium backup

So everytime an update comes out for this rom i do a full wipe then install. I have backuped all apps with titanium ehich makes a full wipe a hell of a lot easier not having to install every app after and still having the app data but it still leaves with a lot of work such as adding permissions.

i notice there is another option to backup system data, haven't done this yet as not sure this is wise. Im thinking in each update you remove or change a system function so will it be wise to potentially copy what's there?

just downloading android 6 base.

this evening i can take a first look :)

for all:

it could be that you only can use the android 6 rom if you ugrade firmware via flashtools.

i will make flashable zip as always , but only fullwipe and flash it in recovery ...maybe that dont work..

i will test it asap and let you know.
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
First step is done . i rooted android 6 stock base..

i merged the zimage of the boot.img with philz recovery (without touch) i tested twrp before . but touch dont work for me so i choose philz..

so we have a working recovery..

Here it is for all that want to test amdroid 6 stock base

: philz v2 patched for android 6 recovery :

p.s: little tip : if you long press on the settings icon in notification bar ( when you fully pull down the notififcation bar) you will enable a hidden android 6 feature

called : system tuner UI . there you can adjust the quicksettings and enable 1percent etc...

Would useful to be able to update to android 6 via eragon update app or make it flashable via recovery

I have to flash the zip for sdccard swap in 5.1 and I don't need to do that with android 6 and if I change my mind it's much harder than the option of reformatting SD card as internal or portable storage in android 6 as to using gravitybox vs system ui,I would like the option to use either one and not be limited to use one or the other .
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
You dont need to do that also in 5.1 stock. I removed that swap Option in my ROM and made flashable zip for those who want it..

V10 will be with 5.1 and I will not update to 6. That makes no sense for me..

I agree that MM is not a big step from LP, but the best feature of it in my opinion is the native fingerprint api, because it allows us to use it many other ways, not just unlocking the screen as it is now (but it's not working in the stock MM rom now)... Anyway, if someone could gather the needed drivers etc. From the lollipop rom and somehow merge it to work with the MM hal it would be extremely cool imho. So I think there are some bugs in the LP version - for sure- but MM contains some features that are very useful for some users (app permissions, doze, advanced backup etc.). In my opinion it's better to move on to 6. I know that developers now can't make custom roms (from source) with 3.18 kernel, as elephone didn't yet released the kernel sources, but i hope they'll do it asap.
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
Yes. That FP don't work atm. That stock rom is beta and it has many bugs.. That's why I don't update to android 6 now..

I will do the step if it is stable enough..

(I don't want to spent much time to fix most things again , if a new version is coming anyway, I hope )

But for the FP I will try to merge it to android 6. If that works I will open a new thread for that..
