This is excellent!!!

I've made a few posts on the internet saying how great this phone is for the price. Fast, fingerprint, etc but I couldn't use it/recommend it cos the stock ROM has something in it that stops people from putting on apps like the Barclays app (even if apps like Root Checker thinks it's unrooted).

Eragon ROM is the same.. something in that that stops Barclays apps from running.

FlyMe ROM DOES work though... unfortunately, it's not very good!

This one, I just installed it, it has fingerprint scanner, it is VERY light (in fact, it barely fills half a page in the app drawer haha) and Barclays apps work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just use Simply Unroot, reboot, and wham! It's FULLY unrooted - by which I mean even over-zealous apps like Barclays can run on it!

Amazing. Thanks.

One bug I've found:

If you wake up the phone using double tap, the fingerprint scanner doesn't work.

Works if you use ON/OFF switch.

Edit: Although in fairness, if you're using double tap, it suggests that the phone is on the table or something in which case you wouldn't use the fingerprint scanner.

If you had it in your hand, you might as well just use the on/off switch...
[Elephone P8000] MrBoingy:
Edit 2:

OK, I've actually put a SIM into it now but it's not picking up my SIM in either slots.

Someone else said that in an earlier post but not sure if a solution was offered.

What am I doing wrong?

I've reflashed it and the first thing I did was put a SIM in. No joy :(
[Elephone P8000] fire_of_mind:
hi! im thinking about install this rom. i have 0725 rom + CWM + root + framewroks + gravity box.

should i install philz recorvery? how can i do it if i have cmw installed? can i have 2 recoveries?

what should i wipe and clean in recovery before installing nexus rom?

thank you :)

ps im using dual sim - is it working with nexus rom??

ps2 offtopic: do you know any solution to set prefix for one of the sim in dual sim? i have to set "0" before phone number when using one of the sim...
[Elephone P8000] MrBoingy:
I installed the SIM FIX Zip and still no joy.

I know the SIM works fine cos it works in my Flex 2.

Tried both slots, reboot.

Neither works.

I'm guessing SIMs works for others so what am I missing?

I'm using a UK EE SIM.

---------- Post added at 10:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:49 PM ----------

Never mind...

I've just installed Eragon 6.1.

Fingerprint works, Simply Unroot 'fully' unroots it so i can use Barclays apps.

SIMs are detected.

I don't know enough about ROMs and stuff but something's changed since previous versions cos Barclays apps never worked with it.

Thanks anyway :)
[Elephone P8000] PLSHELPIMANOOB:
Thank u so much grerat rom :D

Vielen Dank =)
[Elephone P8000] ChimeyJimmey:
There are vicious rumours that this ROM work also on the UMI Iron device.

Can anyone confirm this?
[Elephone P8000] skeleton1911:
yes normal because most things are the same . ;)
[Elephone P8000] djtechno98:
hi [MENTION=5895603]dr_root[/MENTION], when i flash this ROM the sim is not recognized, i try to flash simcardFIX but still not working, what can i do to fix this?
[Elephone P8000] pitrus-:
That is already a known issue without solution, you should have read a couple of messages back in this thread before you flashed this rom.
[Elephone P8000] djtechno98:
Problem

I try to flash v2 versione of this ROM but it is stack on the boot screen, i install it with philz recovery, i doing clean to install a new ROM, how i fix this? Thanks guys
[Elephone P8000] frankzero1902:
Excelent!!!

thank you very much for this ROM. I've been testing since yesterday and so far zero problems !! excellent work!
[Elephone P8000] :
update the philz recovery, maybe this will help. use the latest with touch support. this works fine for me
[Elephone P8000] abubakar486:
I'd like to have the best possible battery life with my elephone, I use dual sim (one 4g one 2g, 4g always on and no WIFI) and with moderate to heavy usage I can only just abouts get one day out of 100% with about 4-6 screen on time. It also take me 3 whole hours to charge it from 0-100 and sometimes it drains from 30%-0% in minutes of no usage. I want to know how other people's battery results, mine are OK/BAD.

And another thing, from what I see, the lowest CPU frequency is 299MHz(CPU-z and No-frills CPU control) I think this is still quite high for standby and consumes extra juice, is there any way of lowering the minimum frequency?

BTW I do love the nexus rom!
[Elephone P8000] :
thanks :)

you can try to follow this steps to get best possible battery performance

cpu clock is high, i know, but mediatek SoC are not easy to overclock or underclock. i don't know, if we ever will be able to change the speed on our p8000

and a good tip, charge your phone with a 500mAh charger. it takes much longer yes, but it's better for the battery and you have also more juice for the day :) (start with 15% battery, and don't use the phone so much when its charging. i alway let the phone charge while i sleep)
[Elephone P8000] djtechno98:
Finally!!!!

ok it works, finally i have nexus rom on my phone! THE BEST!!
[Elephone P8000] abubakar486:
I've starting experiencing another problem related with battery, before with my samsung 2A 5V charger it would take 2-3 hours for full charge, now the estimated time is 9 hours. I have cleared cache and dalvik cache using philz recovery and cache in settings, still no improvements. ):
[Elephone P8000] :
Use this app

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gombosdev.ampere

Check with how much ampere your phone is charging

Gesendet von meinem P8000 mit Hilfe von XDA Forums
[Elephone P8000] abubakar486:
Results aren't looking too good :mad: .The highest mAh I've seen is 800 and it doesn't stay at 800 for too long. It drops about 10 mA every few seconds and in a few minutes its just charging at 300mA and still dropping. I have tried using different cables and usb adapters, not much difference.

I tried a 700mA charger over night and when I woke... only 5% charged overnight!

I knew 27% isn't going to be enough for my day so I used my powerbank and it was charging my phone at about 600-700mA, more consistent but still slow . Still got me from 27% to 49% in about 3 hours(22%)

I have not had this problem before nexus rom, will go back to eragon to see if there's a difference to confirm if its my phone.
[Elephone P8000] :
this sounds like a real problem. try also one of the early firmwares, if this also does not help, then you need to contact your seller, he can sure help
[Elephone P8000] abubakar486:
I resolved the issue by formatting via flashtool then going to stock. From stock I restored my backup of eragon 6.7. Now everything is working nice
[Elephone P8000] :
So the Problem is my Rom? Sure?

[Elephone P8000] Wani Aamir:
Will this rom work in micromax canvas 5, as it is same device having 5.2 inch screen
[Elephone P8000] pitrus-:
Same specs when it comes to SoC, but completely different one other points like partition layout, bootloader and firmwares. Will most definitely not boot.
[Elephone P8000] Wani Aamir:
Ok thank you
[Elephone P8000] djtechno98:
Hi [MENTION=5895603]dr_root[/MENTION],can you add cm12.1 music app?
[Elephone P8000] :
i could, but i won't do it. simply because the rom should be minimalistic as possible. not everyone would like to use this app, i let the user choose what he want to use. i personally use the Shuttle+ Player :)
[Elephone P8000] :
My highest value was 1330mA. I wonder if there is any P8000 that can charge with the promoted 2A

[Elephone P8000] Stefanosv:
Good, tks.

Good stuff, thank you. May you help me? I have the issue about the "Roaming" often on. Probably due from the fact the I use Ortel Mobile in Germany. I tried to fix it with the Framework-res editing, but I´m not so skilled and did a mistake. Starting from that mistake I discovered this really good ROM. But I still have this issue. Maybe you can give me some details how I can fix it. Thank you in advance & regards.

Ciao.

I have the same problem. My highest measure is 800. Is there any solution? Thank you. Great job, great rom.
[Elephone P8000] abubakar486:
Loving v2.1, absolutely love stock android on my P8000. Just one minor bug/issue, I don't seem to be able to use any other launchers apart from the preinstalled one, I'd like to use the google now launcher, if i install it crashed every few seconds.
[Elephone P8000] :
Install an other launcher, set this AS stock, for example nova launcher, reboot, then install the Google now launcher. Then it should work and you can uninstall the nova launcher. Sometimes i hava the same bug like you. Its because the Google launcher is based on the AOSP launcher, which is preinstalled on my Rom, and this can cause problems sometimes with the Google now launcher. But what i've described here, works everytime, should also work on your phone

[Elephone P8000] rbt07:
Hi, nice ROM, I'll test it in detail.

Dr. root, I have two comments:

- Why ROM does not support original active flip case?

- Why can not set root access in Total Commander? In other applications works.

Could you add to ROM support for the active flip case?

Thank you for your work.

Robert

Edit: So I made support for the flip case by my hand. Here is install file for TWRP recovery.
[Elephone P8000] rbt07:
I found, the support for original active flip case is not only NbHallWindow.apk. Original flip case lets you answer phone calls by clicking on the button that appears in the case window. I think it will be necessary to change application for call handling from stock ROM and maybe something else. Dr_root could you prepare patch please? Thanks.

Edit: I did try to change Dialer.apk, but it's not enough. Answering a call in the window case still not working. :(

Please check it in the new version. Support for flip cases is important for me. Thanks.
[Elephone P8000] TommyX235:
SD SWAP is actually working BUT you will loose access to the internal memory via usb.. thats sad .. can someone fix that?

this ROM does not work with the application of "photos google" because you can not see the videos. They have all the time desfaces speed. and games 8 are ladled the asphalt with too much lag. a greeting.
[Elephone P8000] :
can you please say, how a rom can improve a low end GPU? you know this when you buy a phone. the P8000 has a MT6753, which simply is not made for gaming.

the google photos bug can be only solved by google, not by me.

Edit:

I have solved the Google photos bug :D

Thank you for not only sharing your work but also the update [MENTION=5895603]dr_root[/MENTION].

[Elephone P8000] Gerrit507:
Thank You. I'm going to test this rom now.
[Elephone P8000] valascus:
One thing xD

If u set fingerprint, after u reboot, u can't unlock throught fingerprint unless u open it at Settings.
[Elephone P8000] Gerrit507:
I've now installed the rom and it's exactly like that kind of roms I like. Best rom I had for the P8000 so far. But I got one little problem there. For whatever reason I can't install the apps kicker and tripadvisor either from google play, an apk or with Titanium Backup. They worked with other roms.
[Elephone P8000] :
Hold your Finger in the Scanner, it will unlock ;)
[Elephone P8000] :
OK this is a strange bug. Maybe it is caused by gapps, i dont know. Download the apk and copy the apk in /system/app folder. After reboot the app works. I know, its not nice, but its a workout to get the app working. Sorry for the bug :(
[Elephone P8000] Gerrit507:
A class gets rejected by dex2oat. I made a quick research and found out that it could be related to the SDK Level.

[Elephone P8000] Mareman:
This ROM is best work for P8000: Fast, stable, light, customizable. Fingerprint is working in angle 360 degrees now. I have captured one finger in five profiles , and the success rate is almost 100 percent. In Eragon , I had an unsolvable problem . After using BT headset or A2DP profile D2TW ceased to function . Here it still looks fine . So far I have not encountered any bug in this ROM.

Thank You very much, Dr. Root :good:
[Elephone P8000] frankzero1902:
Version v2.3 It is impressively well this ROM. I hope to follow this way contributing and investing in this phone. having fluidity is too good. Congratulations. great job.

Hi dr_root,

Just flashed your ROM. My SD card seems to be happier in your ROM! Do you think exFAT or NTFS is best for android?
[Elephone P8000] :
hi, i would recommend exFAT, because you can store files which are bigger then 4Gb. NTFS is not that stable as exFAT.

please upgrade to V2.4 when its online. many important bug fixes !
[Elephone P8000] valascus:
which bugs [MENTION=5895603]dr_root[/MENTION] ?
[Elephone P8000] :
bug which are caused by the framework, like problems with playstore or some settings problems. its because the tool "JoelDroid Batch Deodexer" caused errors in the framework. but its fixed now. i upload V2.4 in some minutes

Btw, on fingerprint scanner, using portuguese system language, it shows the options in spanish... Is there a way to fix it?

Hi [MENTION=5895603]dr_root[/MENTION] ! In v2.3 we can lock applications, or what does this line stand for?

I would be really happy if you would tell us how can we lock apps with fingerprints :D Thx, and the rom is really fast and responsive!
[Elephone P8000] rbt07:
I am testing developer version 2.4 also. All bugs from version 2.3 were removed, I think, version 2.4 is actually the best ROM for P8000 - small and fast, for me everything works well. This is only one ROM for P8000, which use standard installation ZIP file - normally install apk, not only copy IMG partition files. Therefore apks could by easy modify by JBart.

Thank you Dr_Root.
[Elephone P8000] Gerrit507:
Where did you get the developer version?
[Elephone P8000] :
sorry, it's not possible to lock apps with fingerprint. its because android 6.0 has a standard fingerprint API, which could be used for things like that. elephone and every other phone with lower android version then 6.0, had implement fingerprint in a different way, so no 3rd party app, can know how fingerprint works on that specific device. and if we would get official 6.0, it does not mean that elephone use the standard fingerprint API, maybe they just made it like in android 5.1

Thank you for this excellent ROM!

do not like only bootanimation and logo, please tell how to be replaced by stock
[Elephone P8000] rbt07:
It is easy, look to System/Media. There is file bootanimation.zip. Change it to file from stock ROM.

If you want can prepare patch file...

---------- Post added at 06:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:07 PM ----------

Installation is easy:

- install latest TWRP 2.8.7.7 -> http://www.needrom.com/download/twrp-recovery-2-8-7-0-2/

- detailed TWRP installation instructions here -> http://www.needrom.com/download/twrp-2-8-7-0-4/

- go to TWRP recovery, make full wipe (recomended)

- install ZIP file Nexus ROM

- restart to System (phone)

- go to TWRP, install GAPPS ZIP file

- restart to System

- done

- if you want, go to TWRP again and install Addons (file are in first post as attachments)

dr_root -> Many thanks for this excellent ROM - in my opinion this is actually the best ROM for Elephone P8000 - small and fast, everything works well.

It would be good even better wifi reception and correction quick discharge of the battery below 10% capacity. These are errors directly from Elephone, bad wifi antena design and some mistakes in the kernel (battery).

Anybody have used Eragon ROM ? I need a reviews for both ROMs.
[Elephone P8000] rbt07:
I also used Eragon long time, but latest Nexus is in my opinion much better.

Quality of Nexus ROM already seen the structure of the installation file -> Nexus it is standard installation process. Eragon only copy partition IMG files -> you can not change anything by jBart.

I noticed in Eragon, Bluetooth does not work well. And what bothers me on Eragon is that author makes a chaotic changes, once something is added, then removed it. And in my opinion it is not a development if the author adds applicatins that you can normally download from the store. ROM should be small and everyone let him install what he wants to use.

[Elephone P8000] silentdude:
I'm on Eragon 9.0 and CWM/Philz.

Is it possible to install this Nexus ROM with CWM or TWRP is a must?

If so, if I've understand it correctly, I can install TWRP directly in CWM with that TWRP*CWM.zip?

Is it then possible to custom restore the /data and sec from my backup made from CWM/Eragon?

So I dont have to reinstall all apps and reconfigure it?

well, i dont care about your opinion.

its yours and its okay.

i know that it is MUCH more then only "theme it to blue and add some apps."

P.s: what base is eragon rom ? what base is nexus rom ? THE SAME!

---------- Post added at 11:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:06 AM ----------

i think you dont have a bug because you performed a fullwipe

Bluethooth and DT2W has nothing to do with each others.

DT2W is a custom code to make double tap 2 wake possible ( in kernel) and it Never touch Bluethooth .

thats not possible
