I don't know what to say. On my past deals with phones from AE, when I've choosed DHL, the tracking code they gaved me was working on DHLs site. In this case DHLs system can't find my tracking code.

Ideed, selling 2000+ units in less then 24h could cause problems, but since it's not their first, the least they could have done was to prepare a bit for this.
[Android General] yourmate:
I'm sure it's because they haven't sent it yet....

They are usually not working on the weekend either, so roughly Monday 2 am UK time will be any update.

Hi, firstly sorry for my english, I am still learning so if I make some mistakes, please, feel free to correct me. Secondly, as I'm new in this forum I would like to say hello to everyone.

I have had the same issue!

First shipment was called back just when it reached my city, but luckily later the second shipment came in about a week.

1-Battery drains fast

2-Evernote and Feedly doesnt work

3-Phone gets too hot and occasionaly shuts down itself

4-Couple of times, the percentage of battery jumped around.

This is a brilliant community for more than a decade now. You will have most (if not all) the information which is available in the whole world regarding smartphones, I am sure.

So the info is here but you have to do the digging yourself and by doing that you will learn a lot.

help gone flashing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SO I FINALLY ROOTED MY PHONE YESTERDAY BUT AFTER IT BOOTED UP I GRANTED PERMISSION TO CLEAN MASTER AND STARTED TO DELETE SOME BLOAT WARES. I HAD DELETED ONLY 3 AND MY PHONE SUDDENLY STARTED FLASHING THE ORIGINAL WALLPAPER AND WILL NOT STOP. I RESTARTED AND IT BOOTED UP FULLY AND ONCE ITS DONE BOOTING IT WILL START TO FLASH THE WALLPAPER!!!. IT WILL SHOW THE PAPER THEN GO BLANK , THEN SHOW THE PAPER , THEN GO BLANK AGAIN. NOTHING ELSE WORKS EXCEPT THE POWER BUTTON. I KNOW THE PHONE IS FULLY BOOTED BECAUSE IT WILL RING WHEN I CALL IT OR SEND TEXT AND MY ALARMS WILL EVEN COME ON BUT ALL I SEE IS WALLPAPER COVERING THE WHOLE SCREEN- its as if i have the wallpaper lock enabled which i dont. PLEASE WHAT SHOULD I DO GUYS- HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Android General] yourmate:
Why the CAPSLOCK?

Well, first of all I never used this app (cm) so cannot comment on that.

As I wrote a few posts back: all Chinese crap deleted - at least the ones I could identify and delete without risking the integrity of the ROM! And this is really important. Some stuff looks like crap and it's not and some looks like crap and it IS crap actually, but you still cannot delete it as the UI depends on it.

So go back flash the original ROM and start again. Or flash a custom one or my nandroid, or something from that Chinese site somebody mentioned here before...
[Android General] Ziela:
yourmate, as not all are experts, can you plz post "path" to things you has deleted ? i think this will help much.

Thanks .
[Android General] tazmako:
after you flash 1.34 auto brightness it work?
[Android General] yourmate:
I am FAR from being an expert, but was lurking here since 2003 ;)

You will find apps to be deleted in the following locations*:

\system\app

\system\priv-app

and in this case in \system\pleloaded-app (or something similar - actually I deleted this whole folder)

BTW I have spent several hours to get this right so why don't you just use the nandroid?

EDIT:

*and before any of you ask - no, I did not make a list of the apps I got rid of ;)
[Android General] Ziela:
Thx mate, that's a great help for me. I don't wanna use nandroid as want to stay with 5.2 rom and polish language. So for me will be enough to delete this apps.

I`ll maybe check nandroid on 2nd phone.

Anyway, thx a lot. :)

i downloaded your file to restore, unzipped in my TWRP/backup/x...f/ directory

I wiped all directories...

at the en, it said all is okay.

But, when i reboot, the phone is bricked.

If i want to flash the 1.34 from ZTE or supercowz user, it's OK (but still in Chinese and lot of f**ck apk , and no Gapps

If i try to flash CM12, all is okay, (but no fingerprint :( )

Could u help me with your file, and how to restore in TWRP (the md5 hash is okay, but i 'm downloading your file again if there was a problem during downloading...)

My experience with ET and ZTE V5 pro

Hello everybody.

I want to write my experience with ET on aliexpress and the phone itself.

It took 5 days to arrive using DHL courier, was very fast. Paid 160 € + 30 € of custom duty (normal with the courier). The phone itself looks very nice, aluminium body make a pleasant grip, it's thin, the display is big and the hardware components works properly, even too much for that price. The only problem is the ROM: the pre installed one is full of crap, ads and pop up keep on appearing. I tried to get rid of them, installed TWRP, flashed SuperSU and removed everything I didn't need. In the meanwhile, the seller ET stopped replying for my messages where I was asking for support. Still, got a process about location that was draining my battery very fast.

Decided to flash the original firmware downloaded from ZTE.cn and it was ok, no bloatwares and stuff, but I coulnd't install the GApps, tried everything but it wasn't working (wipe system, dalvik, cache blabla), so I ended up with CM 12.1.

It's super smooth and everything works properly apart of two things I noticed so far: The fingerprint scanner doesn't work (it's like not having it) and the central button has no backlight. Since this phone is for my father, he wouldn't use the Fingerprint scanner anyway.
[Android General] tazmako:
I hope cm(Chinese) dev will fix bug more.

Now I use original zte rom 1.34 And remove bloatware it work fine for me.

I like stock camera app more than cm camera.
[Android General] Uomosabbia:
Well I agree that stock firmware works better at the moment, it was made on purpose. What I'm afraid of is that they won't support it for a long time. It's my first ZTE phone so I don't know the company policy in terms of long time support, but surely CM has a better development environment. Anyway, in case they'll fix something I'll write an update here to let you know.

[Android General] ramping:
That rom (original zte rom 1.34) comes with gapps preinstalled? How do you flash it?

I have seen sometido post about 1.34 rom, but I don't know wich one is the ZTE original.
[Android General] tazmako:
i prefer Zte V5 pro (price) brand more than other china cheap brand doogree,elephone in same price rate.

bcos zte is big company in china like meizu,huawei,mi

for long term support maybe not update often like meizu,mi but stock rom 1.34 i think it work well.

Ps.if you want you phone run faster install nova launcher and config 3 animation in dev mode to 0.5x
[Android General] Uomosabbia:
Well actually I bought this phone cuz I wanted to try out the company, and the response so was is great. I own a meizu Mx4 now, had a Xiaomi Mi3 before, and their updates were very frequent, and on long terms as well, I can't complain at all. A thing missing on the stock ROM is the full support to Italian language, I have no problems with that but I guess my father would mind about it (CM has Italian language well supported tho).

Nicola
[Android General] Zunera M:

I don't understand the French conversation you had so how is it now?

Stopped @ bootscreen or bootloop? What if you restore your own backup?

If the md5 hash says OK than you don't need to redownload.

Donc, apres avoir enfin reussi a installer ta version 1.34, supprimé (beaucoup) d'applications dans /system

puis, ca plante ici :

cp : /system/priv-app/Settings/Settings.apk : No such file or Directory

le telephone redemarre et forcement, je n'ai plus d'icone "parametres" ;)

le telephone est donc presque planté (mais je suppose que je peux remettre settings.apk manuellement.

ZTE V5 Pro N939St CNUnicom 1.34 [MultiLang with GApps nano & NObloatware]

Here is a new retake on the V5 Pro original ZTE ROM

Same TWRP nandroid backup as before with everything working, all Chinese crap* deleted and Google Apps nano installed plus I have integrated supercowz MultiLang enabler :good:

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

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)

6. when you are on the activation screen after the first boot please give the device a good 5 minutes to get everything in order!

Have fun!

Can I also ask for some feedback from members installed this as at least one person run into problems previously but had no positive feedback at all from others?!? Thanks!

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!
[Android General] supercowz:
So my edited patch is working ?

[Android General] calimegot:
Pour moi NON, sauf avec la methode de lancer ton patch, puis d'en creer un autre sans le CP et rm...

Sinon j'avais un message "no such file or directory" quand le batch voulait deplacer les fichiers dans /system

Et sinon, le francais ne s'est pas appliqué partout, dans le menu de la barre du haut 'Wifi, bluetooth... c'est en anglais :"auto-rotate, Airplane Mode... etc" Mais ca ne me pose pas de soucis.

Avec quelques soft la ROM est devenue sympa (comme la 1.24 avec les applis chinoises bloquées)

A mon avis, on aura une MAJ ZTE, ou CM12 d'ici peu ;)

---------- Post added at 08:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:01 PM ----------

it doesnt work because the rom has been modified by the sellers. they modify the roms to add bloatwares and other crap before the send to you, so the update will not work. it will only work with the original rom from zte installed and if you are not chinese please do not update through ot because its all in chinese. hope this helps

hi, it happened to me, the short story is that you have wiped all the info from your phone so after the logo there is nothing for the engine to run. this is what i did- i installed cm (cyanogin mod into my phone and the rom is awesome. the things i noticed are 1- no finger print, and the brightness adjusts on its on but i fixed the brightness by going to settings. so just find the original rom from a few pages back and install that and you will be good
