How can you flash open_gapps-arm64-5.1-pico-20151016.zip with TRWP.
[Android General] yourmate:
It's always good to play around with different scenarios before you set it up for permanent usage. Nubia is their UI layer, you need to try and see. I did not experience any unexplained battery drain so I cannot comment.

I would definitely go back to stock a couple times and play around as I would not expect any major update for this phone (not even M to be honest) and I'd definitely use the ZTE original ROM instead of the ET Star one...

What sort of error did you get on cm installation?

---------- Post added at 06:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:04 PM ----------

I've got it working as well, the only difference I used root explorer ;)

btw if you install cm then you can use the nano gapps instead of the pico so you have some extra functionality what is not available from the Play Store.

[Android General] sensorex@gmail.com:
Just simply unrar to folder, click flash.bat. Switch of your phone, and start in fastboot mode (power+voldown together when the nubia logo appear) and connect the phone via usb cable.

Wait patiently when the phone is flashed. At the end of flashing, the phone will be reboot. Its a little bit longest time when the system is refreshed, wait patiently.

You must be installed ADB driver, and ZTE usb driver. The adb driver is found lots of place in the net, the zte usb driver is installing when connect the phone to pc in cd rom mode.

The original rom has also a lot of chinese apps added, so i started over an deleted all chinese and nubia apps.

Also changed the launcher to googles launcher. i did not like the original that has no appdrawer.

Im just try today the CM12.1 rom. Im install twrp and root the rom. Install CM gapps. Everything work well excluding the fingerprint scanner. Run a benchmark on this rom and im saw, the phone lost 8000 antutu points with this rom. The phone bring 3234 K antutu before im installed cm, now bring 26 K, and the 3D part is hardly lagging!

I not recommend this CM rom in this status now.

I do still am a little annoyed that not everything is in dutch like on the ROM it came with.

Is there a way to extract language from an other rom and copy it to phone ?

Or can i find the language file somewhere and change it manually ?

Thanx for all the help so far it got my phone rooted en clear of the bloat-ware en Chinese stuff !:D

[Android General] kalky:
I did not make a note of that error, so I forgot, sorry. However, I restored factory defaults and tried again. This time everything went rather smoothly, CM is there and working. (once I got stuck on the fastboot screen; command "fastboot reboot" did its job though) Thank you once again for taking your time to write the manual up.

But the keyboard isn't working anymore. Error message: Unfortunately, Android keyboard (AOSP) has stopped. I googled it and none of the solutions works out. Deleting data of the keyboard doesn't do the trick, plus I can't seem to find the dictionary they are talking about on many sources, saying its data need to be deleted as well.

Edit: found a solution. Downloaded .apk for google keyboard, downloaded it, moved from PC to the phone, installed and switched to that one. I wasn't able to download it in the play store, since I could not even type in my login details.

And yes, I created a WiFi network without a password, used voice search on google and I tried to copy paste from the results. Turns out you can't copy paste without a keyboard. Lol.

I usually run apps and also text and phone plus navigate on my devices - I don't use it for benchmark programs.

More important for me that with CM you can set the apps access rights right from the OS ;)

Having said that on CM the keyboard was continuously FC but I'd still choose that over ANY original ROM, let it be Samsung, HTC or ZTE. But that is just me...

---------- Post added at 06:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:45 PM ----------

HTC used to restrict languages on some of their ROMs and you could unlock all languages through same very light hacking in system.

But with this ROM it is not case it only has two versions - Chinese and English. You could add a language by recompiling the ROM, problem is you don't have the source code and also it would be an overwhelming job...

You either live with the half Dutch version or use an English one or if we lucky then they will release a proper Android ROM (I doubt it) later - or just go for CM* and don't run a benchmark test ;)

*it was NOT lagging for me at all and I used Maps and some other heavy apps...

With the original Chinese ROM the free space is not enough in system to flash gapps.

You need to root first then boot to the OS and delete/uninstall some unnecessary apps to free up some space and THEN try to install gapps from TWRP.

---------- Post added at 07:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:10 PM ----------

I had the same problem it did not work from the very first boot.

You have two choices - either flash the apk from ADB from the PC (elegant way if you have the apk) or just get your son text you thee things (your email address, your password and the expression "Google keyboard) and you can copy & paste (my way) :D

---------- Post added at 07:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:16 PM ----------

btw what do you need from here? I might be able to upload it to mega for you.
[Android General] badermq:
I think you can download it without Baidu account , the steps to do that :

1- download jdownloader 2 from HERE.

2- install it and make sure that jdownloader plugins up to date.

3- keep jdownloader running , and go brows the roms you want to download , then copy the URL link for the download page ( for exp "http://pan.baidu.com/s/1c0FfmcK") , jdownloader will automaticly add the link , you will find it under the LinkGrabber tab , just right click and start download.

Best of luck .
[Android General] ramping:
Yes, that worked for me. Now we have many roms, but are they multilanguage or chinese/english only? I don´t have my phone yet.
[Android General] badermq:
I think Chinese/English only .

i am not sure if those are a flash-able zip files , i saw this one http://www.shuaji.com/rom/5752.htm

and its a recovery Backup folder which it can be restored through TWRP recovery menu.

But this one with a working google play , its a modified rom based on the original rom ver 1.29.

if anyone did try other backup roms , please provide the link and a feed back.

Thanks

OK i installed this ROM it is only English but primarily Chinese.

Also lots of Chinese apps.

It is rooted though and comes with rootexplorer and a few other added apps.

I am not going to keep this there is to much Chinese implemented in GUI.

Even after changing language to English.

I think im going back to stock 1.34 then boot up clear all sys apps and 'extras' and then do a full gapps install.

I do not like the nubia appdrawer.

It is still saying not enough space. Quite annoying :mad:

ZTE V5 Pro N939St CNUnicom 1.34 [gapps nano & bloatware delete]

My journey came to an end regarding the V5 Pro original ZTE ROM :)

Here you can have a TWRP nandroid backup of the aforementioned ROM with everything working, all Chinese crap* deleted and Google Apps nano installed.

Quick how-to run down:

1. get TWRP up and running on your V5 Pro and make a full nandroid backup on your external_sd

2. download the rom from here - PLEASE SEE POST #428

3. unzip the file and copy the content to the relevant TWRP folder: (yourstoragecard/TWRP/BACKUP/yourhash/copy_to_here)

4. wipe everything in TWRP (dalvik/system(!!)/data/internal_sd/cache)

5. restore this nandroid backup (and not your one previously made)

Have fun!

So once again, before you start this procedure please make sure you have a FULL NANDROID BACKUP and save it to your SD card! Please note that all the usual crap applies!**

*at least the ones I could identify and delete without risking the integrity of the ROM

**you will void your warranty/I am not responsible for your stupidity/you can seriously f**k up your phone kind of crap!

Please use the md5 hash - there is a reason it's included!
