I would like to add to the discussion here. I'm not sure if this was a fluke but I appear to have gained root by accident. If someone could verify this works it would be appreciated.

I installed superSU as soon as I got the phone just because, but I was going through the settings earlier and there is one near the bottom saying "Install SuperSU into /system" I decided to try it knowing that it needs to be in there to gain root and after a reboot it worked. Could be a safer and easier way for people to root their MTK6735 chips

Root problem

Whoever help me. I tried the proceeding for rooting this phone. But afraid the recovery console not flashed. I have good driver for this phone and everything looks good. The flash tools says "OK" if it done the flashing process. If i run the recivery console i see small picture with android and a text "no command". Please if will be somebody of you any idea, write me. Thnx.

The link are missing the decryption key :p

I've pushed TWRP and I'm installing your patch...hope it will work good :D

Just a question: can I simply flash the rom with SP Flash? How?
[Android General] genesisalgor:
To reflash the rom you just need to load the scatter in the folder connect your turned off phone and press download once you heard the usb connect sound.

Assuming that you've already installed the necessary MTK drivers.
[Android General] VFansss:
Just like I thought.

Ok, I finally known some things about this device...I'm writing a comprensive tutorial.

Also, I've flashed your patch from TWRP and...stuck on 'optimization application' after the reboot...don't know if I'm doing something wrong or....

Had the same problem...

It has some minor problem with driver and windows 8. You have to be sure that all required mediatek are installed correctly through 'unfirmed drivers install' procedure.
[Android General] genesisalgor:
The screen stays forever at optimizing application and then reboot?
[Android General] VFansss:
After flashing patch, cleaning cache and reboot I'm stuck in bootloop for a long time (long, I mean). After I manually forced the reboot through power button then I got something...the 'optimization app' screen. After it finished (About 110 apps) the message change in the 'starting application' (Don't know if it's the exact translation) and stuck forever.

I had to re-flash the nandroid backup to see homescreen again. Don't know If I've done something wrong or not.
[Android General] genesisalgor:
Hmm I guess the patch didn't worked well, thats why I asked the backup.

I need to find a proper MT6735 with the storage problem fixed, so we can port the fix from it.
[Android General] VFansss:
For now thanks for your help ;)

I'm flashing xposed now and breaking stuff....I'm writing a tutorial for someone that didn't want to spend whole evening through drivers link, chinese recovery (I SERIOUSLY didn't understand that: If I power on the phone with POWER BUTTON + VOLUME DOWN I can start a strange...service mode? From then I can push ADB command. I don't know what is because...I don't understand a word. I rebooted the phone through ADB :crying:), TWRP and so on...
[Android General] genesisalgor:
That sucks really.

I have a Jiayu S3 too and it is getting a great level of development from community, CM12.1, Soon MM and so on. But it is a different SoC.

Our Leagoo as a capable device, if support was decent we could really enjoy the best of experience.

There are fees MT6735 with nice ROMs also, a good ROM could be ported from it.

But the best surely would be source code to be able to fix, compile and produce our own stuff.

There are some similarities between MT6753 and MT6735, almost same SoC, I'll try to port TWRP 3.0 for us at least.
[Android General] VFansss:
It's a good device, overall. Has a very low price and it's very good just only for that thing.

Unfortunatelly, after I've installed XPosed and XPrivacy AND the MicroSD inside, the slowdown is very noticeable. Isn't 'phone-breaking', but it's very unfunny. Sometimes runs very good, other times slow down even in the homescreen when I put swipe the notification bar. Just for a moment but...errr. Don't know if it's normal with a 1.0 Ghz SoC but....I think I'm going to remove XPosed.

Overall Leagoo could be (for serious) the landmark for low price-high efficiency smartphone producer but I don't think they want to put attention for squeeze as much as possible from its device. I think they are going to release more models and don't fix practically anything. Ok, this isn't a Nexus but...

ALSO I seriously don't know why but....now chrome has 'card view' just like stock lollipop. Seems that something has 'fixed' the non-card view.

I didn't touched nothing except installing TWRP, XPosed and XPrivacy and updating app on PlayStore.

I've sucessfully ported TWRP 3 to the Elite 5.

There are some benefits as multilanguage, terminal, flashing direct system imgs trough recovery and more.

Also I've enabled OTG mount that was disabled in our previous recovery.

You can flash this with Flashify, select Recovery, choose from file, choose the img and flash.

Greetings

As you may have noticed, I am a new user on XDA.

About two months ago I finally upgraded to this thread's phone (which is one hell of a step from my Nokia 5800). Thanks to praktikmore I successfully rooted it and it's time for customization. Now here comes my question - Is there any way I can change what shows up when the Hall effect sensor triggers (when I close the magnetic cover)?

hi!!!

i have this phone for a month now and i have a wifi problem

when i go home for example the phone will not connect averytime to the wifi automaticly and when i unlock the phone then connects but this happens not every time some times connects automaticly

the second problem i have is when i am connected and i leave the phone to sleep tha wifi stops working after a while

its not disconected (i have set "keep wifi on during sleep" to always)

the phone stays connected but its not sending or receiving anything

for example my status on viber goes offline and when i unlock the phone and try to open a website in chrome says i am offline and i have to close the wifi and open again to start working

i have not flash anything to the phone and i have made the wifi updates

is it posible that the problem is in my router?

is there any fix for that?

please help

thank you and sorry for my bad english
[Android General] cjrand:
After updating to R29, I noticed the system aggressively closed down apps.

For instance, I opened several web pages in the browser, and jumped to other apps. When I came back, all the pages had to be reloaded. It never happened this way back in R27. So now the free RAM amount is often around 1GB, in contrast to around 400MB previously. But the phone became quite annoying to use.

Hope in the next version this could be changed back.
[Android General] BSJ123:
Following recently OTA update which introduced Battery Master and apps Lock. I don't like the Battery Master because it stops apps like WhatsApp, Telegram, Truecaller, Gmail from running underground so I don't get notification again when messages flow in and Truecaller is no longer blocking unwanted calls. How can I disable the Battery Master ? I'm yet to root the phone

[Android General] corumwm:
Hello xda, i just bought a new Elite 5 only to discover that it cannot find any mobile networks. I think this maybe due to my carrier operating the 3g network at 850mhz and 2100mhz and the device supporting 850/900/1800/1900 so im missing the 2100 bandwidth. My question is do i have to return the phone or is there a way to add the extra band through software manipulation or is the frequencies hardware based? id really like to keep the phone so any suggestions are welcome. my diagnosis is just a guess from fiddling with it all day and maybe wrong
[Android General] jagotu:
The Battery Master can either be set up from the settings menu, or completely disabled just like any other application (phone settings -> apps -> all -> battery master -> disable). This will leave you with an useless menu item in the settings, but nothing will be killing your apps anymore

This ability was lost with the update to R29. All previous versions had it.

Hello, leagoo friends....

Well my elite 5 's charger became dead and I got a new charger 2A and it charges full in 6:00 hours -_- so I'm in mood of getting quick charge 2.0or3.0. But main problem is I rooted my phone to change fonts. Got some good ones but I had to change the launcher as it was showing the Not responding error I thought it would be because of some app...so I Factory reset the phone and when I boot again .....the problem was still there...here are some of the images; according to forum policy I can't post links right now so put dot yourselves -_-

But when I went to apps lobby I saw this -_-i(dot)imgur(dot)com/YMwAxT1(dot)jpg

Wow I hard bricked my phone trying to flash one of the many stock Leagoo elite 5 roms, apparently all the country revisions have different preloaders.

If this case gets to happen to you, simply take out the battery, sim cards, SD card, then plug your phone to the pc, press the vol up + vol down buttons, and while keep it pressed, put the battery on the phone and the PC should detect and install the DA USB VCOM driver, then, SP flash tool should work fine to flash the stock rom

If you install Resurrection Remix ROM I suggest to flash MiraVision engine since it's missing in this ROM: http://www.needrom.com/download/meidatek-miravision-for-lillipop/

The only missing feature, and that we'll never see in a port is the Smart Wake.

I install TWRP and flash rom through recovery. After flashing RR rom mobile is keep on restarting...how to resolve it???
[Android General] Charmandrigo:
There are two cases of why this could have happened:

You c have forgotten to do the necessary wipes on TWRP: System, Data, Cache and Dalvik/ART cache. If you forgot do these wipes, go to TWRP, do the wipes and flash the rom.

The other case is that apparently not all the stock kernels work with the ROM, according to the porter of the ROM some old stock roms don't work, if that's the case.

Install stock rom 33 with sp flash tool (labeled as R33) https://yadi.sk/d/uZtP4OKUmmk9h/Firmware

I think R27 works too, then flash again TWRP and the ROM, it should install successfully now.
