[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tharper08:
Ok. I've searched all over and have found a thread with a similar problem with no responses. I hope this gets some help. I have a Verizon G2, and ever since the Lollipop update, my battery life has been pretty awful (sometimes less than 2 hours of SOT in 8 hours of battery time), and the performance is horrendous at times. some apps (facebook Messenger especially) will stop when I am using them. No crash report. They just close out of nowhere. Nova Launcher redraws almost every time I hit my home button, sometimes my phone gets ridiculously hot. There are times when Android system restarts, and I lose the navbar and status bar, leaving my phone quite useless for a couple minutes. I do not have a task killer This all happened on 100%stock unrooted

I read something similar happened with the 5.0 release on nexus devices and was related to a memory leak. I have read in ROM threads that the G2 does not have this memory leak.

Things I have tried.

Frequent reboots - Hit or miss temporarily. Sometimes it would reboot into lag and restarting apps

Frequently clearing running apps - sometimes helped for a few hours or so

Factory reset-helped for a couple days

Rooting and installing xposed with the "lollipop Memory leak fix module"-maybe helped for a day? no significant change

Installed a XDABBEB's stock based ROM with TiBu and without =same result - butter for the first few days, but the apps restarting is always there. Then it gradually loses its smoothness and all the problems begin again.

Is this not a common issue? Anyone have any suggestions? I'm thinking of going CM, but I really like LG's floating apps and such. I'd rather stay with stock. They just seem to work better as well.

When it works, it is awesome. I don't think there is any reason to get a new phone as this one still has great hardware. I'm just frustrated. My phone always worked amazingly on kitkat, but Lollipop seems to have ruined it.

I am using Dopod M700 with WM5. Working well with Motorola HS850. Then I flashed to Artemis Touch 2.1 WM6. The problem is when my call comes in, after I pressed on the answer button, no sound. Just a connected/disconnected sound. Doesn't even work with a2dp also. :(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mcorrie1121:
Mines working with vp3G 3.62. Just make sure you check "handset" when u choose services.

I dont know what dialer you're using, but at least with the Kaiser dialer, a little headset icon appears in the dialer if you have it paired and the boom out. Might check that too.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tanago:
Guys, when I login with my main G Acc I dont get any apps & updates in Play Store->My Apps; I login with my secondary G Acc and they appear instantly. I am almost sure that /data reset will fix the problem but I dont want to waste my time to again import backed up contacts, call & message logs, app data & so on. I tried clearing Apps->All->Google, Google Play Store & Google Play services data but still the same. Any ideas? Xperia Z3
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
You can remove the account from within the Settings without resetting the phone. I would then reboot and re-add and see if that doesn't help.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tanago:
I did this a hundred times..the problem is that in my older account system apps were added to the account (https://play.google.com/apps) but on the new account they are not. I have to manually browse for system apps like hangouts, google, google play games, GP music, etc.. and then I see the Update button

I have a Bush Spira B1 (5inch, dual sim android 4.4.2, 5mp back camera, 2mp front camera, 8gb internal memory, 1gb ram, retailing in argos for £69.99)

I've only had it just over 30 days and it rebooted this evening but does not boot into android, after the boot and splash screens I get a blank screen and no operating system.

Anyone have any idea or knowledge of this device?

Why won't it finish boot? No system or any other changes have been made.

Apparently this is a rebranded Archos 50 neon, and carries the model number C50CNE.
[General Questions and Answers] BluT00th:
Sounds like a piece of $hit.

Its most likely some chinese knock off.
[General Questions and Answers] :
Well its not one of these Chinese clone things that are taking over the net. They are $hit as you call it.......

I took it back and got a full refund.

Thanks for your optimistic comment though.
[General Questions and Answers] BluT00th:
Sorry, lol, I havent ever heard of this phone, usually alot of people who buy phones that die like 30 days later are the Chinese ones.
[General Questions and Answers] :
Its ok. No offence taken.

I brought it because the spec seemed quite respectable.

Sim free (unlocked)

5" IPS screen

Qualcom snapdragon quad core processor

Dual sim

8gb internal memory

1gb ram

Android 4.4.2 KitKat

8mp back camera

5mp front camera

£10 lebra mobile credit included on a free sim card

£10 Google play voucher

Black or white back battery cover and a clear gel case included.

£69.95

My own investigation found out that all bush phones and tablets available in UK are rebranded Archos devices.

The Spira B1 seems to be identical to the Archos C50 Neon.

There are bigger and better phones available (Namely the Spira C1 and Spira D1 that have 5.2 and 5.5" screens and lollipop) for £99 and £120 respectively.

The previous 4 and 5 inch Bush android phones and tablets available until April this year in the UK (that were called bush 4 android and bush 5 android) have now been rebranded as Alba devices !
[General Questions and Answers] :
Here it is.
[General Questions and Answers] mrgadgetuk:
I have a Bush Spira C1. I bought it from Argos. I too cannot currently find anyway to root my device. I'm gradually running out of space, as I'm unable to use Link2SD without root. Any assistance for us would be gratefully received. Thank you in advance. P.S. I have searched XDA, but cannot find any other reference to our devices.
[General Questions and Answers] xtr3m3:
Not everyone can afford a £600 phone. Some people are quite happy with the basics.

Same problem here, my dad has the Spira B1. I'll update if I find something.

[Update]

Managed to root with KingoRoot using the Windows software. Just need to find a way to replace their superuser app with SuperSU now.
[General Questions and Answers] Da5t3rati0n:
superuser just crashes on this phone supersu sort of works it roots the phone but the pop up for su prompt is blocked so just sits there if set to always grant root works but is a bit of a security issue and practically all phones are produced in china now even the over priced ones and the chipset for the phone is spreadtrum the cpu is a quad 1.2 with a mali mp2 gpu so performance is reasonable but the touch screen is only 2 touch and it is a rebranded Archos 50c neon but the update firmware they have available at the archos site is older than what is installed on the phone so won't install.

[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
I just got my 6039S (4.7 version) from Amazon for my wife today, (my 5.5 is currently on backorder).

I noticed that when starting for first time, I am only allowed to select about 5 or 6 different languages. Haven't gone past initial setup screen as I will wait to get back to Moscow to do it for wife.

I know I can get a third party keyboard that contains this, but looking for full system conversion.

Is there a way to get full system Russian language via a different region ROM? Or is there a method such as modifying the default.xml to add it?

The Alcatel update program doesn't let you choose which ROM to install as far as I can tell.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petrov.0:
You need a full ROM (system image) with support for Russian language (but future OTA updates cannot be installed), or a complete dump of the emmc from a device purchased from Russia ... probably the update program will downloads the russian updates afterwards (if you reflash the whole memory).
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
Yeah, that's what I'm looking for. It's the single sim 16gb model. Any idea where I can find one? Maybe 4Pda?
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
You happen to have a "language.xml" from the /system/csc? Wananm messed my original up and didn't restore the original when I uninstalled it.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petrov.0:
Probably I don't know how popular is 6039 in Russia ... but 4pda is great place to find such things :)

There is no such file in /system/
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
Thanks mate. Don't know why my 6039s has the csc folder. Strange......

4pda doesn't have any firmwares either that I could find. Guess wife will just have to live with 75% russian phone until I get back to moscow, :D
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
Let me ask you this, and [MENTION=320962]famewolf[/MENTION] feel free to chime in.

Do you think the mobile upgrade app keys off the device model in the build.prop? Like changing it to a 6039k might work? I believe thats a 16mb single sim from europe
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petrov.0:
Probably no. Considering the fact that the request to their servers in order to check for updates contains the serial number, IMEI, the version of the kernel and of the firmware. I think that all these things matter.

Edit: OK, the serial number is not included in the request ... this is my previous check for updates :D

curl -A 'com.tcl.fota/5.1.0.2.0029.0 , Android' -v 'http://g2master-cn-north.tctmobile.com/check.php?id=<MY IMEI was HERE>&curef=6039Y-2AMPBG7&fv=1AB2CM20&mode=2&type=Firmware&cltp=10&cktp=2&rtd=1&chnl=2'
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] famewolf:
Same answer as [MENTION=6866672]petrov.0[/MENTION] but different reasons. The mobile Q software is designed to fix a totally bricked phone...it's not looking at anything on system...while connected in download mode it can poll the hardware directly to identify what the device is and then pull the appropriate images to flash directly to the partitions.

I'll add further I'm unaware of anyone on the forum indicating their model in either 6039 or 6049 having russian language as an option.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
and [MENTION=320962]famewolf[/MENTION]

I was afraid of that. I've shot a mail to alcatel, asking for support and full images for us XDA users. Worth a shot as I'd love to see them support development..

Generally there are usually numerous language support in most roms. So there has to be a way to activate it. I've tried looking for "default.xml" which is another place, but no such luck.

Almost done reflashing via upgrade app
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] famewolf:
Please keep us in the loop on what you find. I recall another user wanting Polish as a language choice also.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
Will do. Just got my 6045i this afternoon also. But english is ok on that one. Only hoping both of these hook up on the russian network. Should though, as the frequencies seem compatible.

On the 6039s, I noticed after running the pc upgrade app, the System/Csc/language.xml is no longer there. Must have been only on the original OS.

I can compile on Linux back in Moscow, but won't be home for another month. I'm gonna guess fremework.res and systemUI may be the culprit
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
Well, Alcatel support confirmed that each build is separate for region. So looks like some decompiling is going to be in order soon.

Found frameworkres but seems the newer OS doesn't have systemui.apk ?
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] famewolf:
Well I can confirm on my device there is no systemui.apk in /system/app. If you meant elsewhere you'd have to tell me where.

[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
Well, it seems 5.0.2 is a different ball game than I've done in the past. A lot of system files I'm used to are just not there.

Now, if you dial *#0007# it will switch most of the UI to Russian, with the exception of Settings and a few other places and apps. (Thanks 4PDa Decker). It shows up in language and keyboard settings, but vanishes when you go back to English, so it appears language support is indeed compiled to a certain extent.

I would guess *#0008# or some other value might change the language to something else. I've played with a couple of apps from the play store, but they do the exact thing. So the dialer option is the better option.

Will still mess around and probably decompile some apks. Might get lucky.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] famewolf:
Thanks for the info on the star codes! Can you please tell me how many languages show up as options in your rom by default? Is it six of them and the 007 code shows the next?
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
Here's what it does,

Dial *#0007# and the system changes to Russian (about 75% give or take some apps). When you go to Settings/Language and Input, you see Russian as the set language. If you select English for example, it changes back to English and you have to dial *#0007# to change to Russian again. It never really perma-shows in the list along with the usual 5 or 6 languages. Kinda strange.

But it looks like most if the important things change languages, dialer, etc. I'm without a Sim here until I get back to Moscow next month, so I can't really check how the messaging works, and with a little over a month left, I'm not going to sign up for a service from ATT or TMobile.

EDIT:Whatever file controls language, it is located in System/Vendor/Overlay according to 4Pda. They are just copying the overlay folder from a 6039y I believe, into the US bought phones. I suppose they will have to partition the memory? Seeing as the single sim S varient has 16gb, whereas the Y varient has only 8gb. I wouldn't know why they should have to as they are not messing with partitions.

I'm guessing about 5 related. Settings, system, systemUI. They're all in there.

so for russian language change there is a post on 4pda.

its simple. the language packs are stored in /system/vendor/overlay/ there are system apks which contains only settings and alnguage xml files. So to add Russian language is about to replace the system/vendor/overlay folder of your 6039x with same model with russian language. I did this on my 6045Y model. I have i806 (TCL variant of 6045) firmwar eand just replaced the folders and in settings now i have the languages that i had on my stock 6045Y firmware.

here is the link to the 4pda. That way the Alcatel differences the language regions, they dont have to recompile all system apk´s just the small overlay apks.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jodge:

Intall TWRP and do a backup from system.

Flash this zip and do a factory reset.
