It still doesn't work, it stops at the bootloader and doesn't load anything. The flash with SP goes fine but then the phone stops at the bootloader. The thing is that it would be good if someone else share his/her experience to know if it's only me who have this kind of problems.

Hi, I'm not sure yet if it really helps or not, but for me it has at least partially fixed the issue (WiFi disconnecting)

I have noticed on my router home network configuration screen, that my device is named android-[random-stuff]. This is completly normal, but what seemed off to me, was the fact that there were a bunch of devices, all with different endings. The end should be static, so the router could assign the same local IP address to the device. So I looked on how to change the network name of the device, and found how. Run these commands whilst connected to adb:

adb shell "setprop net.hostname DOOGEE_F5"
adb shell "setprop persist.net.hostname DOOGEE_F5"

The rom probably is buggy. Try getting a dmesg log. (I posted a link on how to on the project page)

Thank you MushroomLT! I just did it, now let's hope it fixes it. The wifi bug is/was really annoying.

P.S. I only succeeded in changing the hostname after switching to root or more precisely setting ro.secure to 0 via the Mediatek EngineerMode. (To do so, dial *#*#*3646633#*#*, go to Log and Debugging then User2Root and select Root. Don't forget to switch back to User after you're done!)

Guess you have your phone rooted anyway :D
[Device Reviews and Information] Pololomix:
I'm sorry, I couldn't get the dmesg log because for me was impossible to run the command "adb shell su -c dmesg > dmesg.log" via ADB, so I cannot send you helpful information. I just returned back to the Stock Rom but I'm not giving up. I will try again and wait for your work.
[Device Reviews and Information] MushroomLT:
Have you tried getting a logcat, or is the phone not recognised by adb at all?

[Device Reviews and Information] MushroomLT:
No. It appears, that after I called setprop on net.hostname even without root, it assigned a static android-[Random stuff] so I didn't need to change it.

[Device Reviews and Information] G-GFFD:
Hmmm ... I'm using the standart Doogee ROM without root. There wasn't an error message after setprop, but getprop always returned the old android-[Random stuff] . . . . thing. Also the wifi didn't improve. After changing ro.secure to 0, executing setprop again, getprop finally returned DOOGEE_F5. It works like a charm, I haven't had the wifi issue since, thanks again!

[Device Reviews and Information] dodgydave100:
Hi, can anyone please help. When i access the "recent apps" section on my phone (long press on the home key) and swipe away the apps i'm no longer using - this terminates the app completely whereas on every Android phone i've ever had this usually just removes it from the recents list. When the app is swiped away this also prevents the app from booting upon startup if it is set to boot from startup. An example of this is that i have an app that displays the current date in the status bar and in order for this app to work on the doogee f5 pro i have to keep it in my recent apps list? Is there any way to prevent the phone from terminating/killing apps when they are swiped away? It is not enabled in the developers section. I contacted Doogee directly and their reply did not help at all. Can anyone offer any advice please?
[Device Reviews and Information] MushroomLT:
Swiping apps away SHOULD terminate them. This is expected and completely normal behavior. They however will launch on startup if they should, otherwise this is an app bug, not phones. All my messaging applications start up properly upon bootup, and their services keep working in the background upon killing the app by swiping it in the recent app list. Not sure what app are you using, but the date is displayed in the status bar on every Android device.

Brick

Hello guys, I tried to flash this ROM on ubuntu. I tried Firmware Upgrade and I saw red bar for 7 minutes, then I clicked to Stop and SPFT froze, I switched it off and unplugged the phone. Now the phone is bricked, I tried Windows, but I only saw unkown device. I didn't found any drivers for MTK6753. Can you please help me? Thanks a lot.

Edit: It's last ROM on needrom for F5.

Camera storage preferences

Hi guys, I've an issue trying to get the camera to store on the SD card, I can't see an option to change it. I asked doogee support and they replied with;

"Turn on your camera, there is a menu in the upper left corner, click it, enter the settings, select SD memory priority".

Of course I had scanned every option before asking them, there simply isn't that option in menu. This is what I see when I press the options menu in camera mode, ( the cog) a control panel opens and is divided into three sections.

---- Section 1 ----

Store location

Face beauty

Exposure

Colour effect

Scene mode

White balance

Image Properties

Anti-flicker

Volume keys

-- Restore defaults--

Section 1 seems to be the general preferences but it only has the options listed above, nothing in that list for SD/Internal storage selection.

Sections 2 and 3 are specific to photo and video preferences and contain nothing for storage selection.

I have a Samsung Evo 32GB SD Card mounted and showing as available in the system settings storage menu, I have unmounted, removed, rebooted and reinserted the card just in case.

Any ideas would be welcome as Doogee's help wasn't of any use.

I'm on the stock 19-11-2015 rom.

PS, Thanks for all your posts MushroomLT, I've read all 48 pages of the thread just in case my issue was already answered and you've been a stalwart here.
[Device Reviews and Information] fotocreaman:
I don't know of an option in camera to change location. You can change general storage location in settings/storage There you can select phone or SD card. This will change the default storage location for all applications.
[Device Reviews and Information] AsgardCurse:
How about the "Store Location" you mention first? I don't have an SD card in my F5, since I use dual SIMs, and I don't even have that option in my camera app.

For me it looks like

---- Section 1 ----

GPS location info (toggle off/on)

Face beauty

Exposure, etc the same as you.

So my 2 cents would be that "store location" is the location where you store your images, ie phone mem or SD card.
[Device Reviews and Information] djvivid:
Thanks for both answers above.

"You can change general storage location in settings/storage"

In storage options it only says "Change the preferred installation location for new applications", and makes no mention of data storage.

I wouldn't want to install applications themselves to SD card as I use SD cards as removable data storage only.

[edit : Tested and it does save images to SD with this option, new apps still installed internally, if seems they have just worded it wrong, and also gave me bad instructions]

" "store location" is the location where you store your images"

Store Location is a switch which can be either on or off to allow positioning data to be embedded into the image, so the location where you take your images.

and not where you save your camera data. It's just been worded differently in the last update.

[edit 2: Thanks Mushroom, but to clarify, do you have general storage not set to SD but with googles cam app it saves to a mounted SD anyway?]
[Device Reviews and Information] AsgardCurse:
Ahh, same as my GPS location switch.

In that case, I got no clue, and can't really check, since I don't have any SD card.
[Device Reviews and Information] MushroomLT:
I'm using Google Camera app, saves to SD by default. Almost never use the stock app so dunno how to change the location there.

When I install CyanogenRecovery it works on first boot when I press volume+ and power button. But if I go to back my stock rom and power off device and try to get on CyanogenRecovery again, then It starts again on stock recovery.

Is this normal? Is it overwriting back on stock recovery or something if I try to boot on stock rom?

I assume that it doesn't go back on stock recovery if I install CM rom straight away.

Well hello, (one of) my favorite band is called Infected Mushroom, so nice to meet you :cyclops:.

I have this problem: I use a SIM in slot 1 and SD in slot 2, but phone does not remember the choice of installation between phone storage and sd. I have rebooted phone with correct settings (lwp in phone storage, custom camera app in sd) but after reboot the camera is not recognized. Had to make setup again, reboot and then I got the setup right. I have a few screenshots representing this, but cannot post links atm for xda rules.

I also faced some problems with wifi, but in the present case (corrected SD/blah setup, then rebooted) it's working fine. Secondary problem, storage choice is most important.

The story behind: phone purchased through italian channel (grossoshop) version 20151119, not rooted.

I only installed a recycled 16Gb microSD (recycled means; did not format) in 2nd slot.

Cheers

Very nice phone btw :silly:

Rooted but not flashed recovery
[Device Reviews and Information] MAGICMAN516:
Wireless update available today. Mines downloading but I bet I'm going to have to reflash my phone since I'm rooted. I haven't flashed a recovery or custom rom but since I'm rooted I'm expecting that it won't let me update.

strange it's dated 2015-12-15 that it's only today that it's recognized it?

Yup have to reflash the older rom first then it'll let me upgrade. Time to use titanium backup to back up all programs, figure out the flash program, and get it all done.

Not sure, but probably not, as I had a really short and small freeze just after flashing, although it could be not screen related. Although they are REALLY rare, and a simple lock-unlock always fixes it.

I'd like to try to flash it via the recovery instead of the OTA update. I want to see if it'll let me do it since I've rooted my phone. That way I don't need to reflash the old rom and then do the OTA.

Cleared data for wireless update and now it's downloading again. It saves it in the adupsfota folder on the sdcard. Hopefully this works so I don't have to go through the pain of restoring all my apps.

Nope wouldn't take. Tries to install the zip in recovery then aborts. Maybe I should try the custom recovery instead of stock.

[Device Reviews and Information] MushroomLT:
Hi,

If you want to skip the upgrade, you should flash not only the system, but the boot image too. But it's currently impossible, because doogee didn't upload the update to it's official website yet. So you should reflash the same version as yours system image, then upgrade, and root again.

The Stagefright Detector shows our Doogee F5 is still vulnerable to CVE-2015-6602 and that's a bit dissapointing . . . It seems the didn't even bother to incorporate Googles last changes before compiling this update.
