I have upgraded to B04 from B01. I am regretting now. Is there any way to back to B01. I could not find B01 software zip file anywhere on the net. Any help will be highly appreciated. Thx in advance.
[ZTE Axon Pro] demenicis:
I'm in B03 (Europe, pressure sensitive). I could upload that somewhere, but the truth is that I have Downloaded it a while ago directly from zte website. If I'm not wrong was in the honk Kong session.

B03 works so far, and is rootable.
[ZTE Axon Pro] simrim1:
Thanks for your message. My phone is not premium edition (non-pressure touch B2016 model). I have not tested B03 either. The best one I experienced is B01. I wish i had backed it up before upgrade. I am sure someone should have a full backup of B01.

Hello everyone.

I'm interested in buying ZTE Axon Mini B2015. Nowadays price in China is pretty good (aboud 900 RMB). But before purchase I have to ask a few questions:

1. Does Chinese version (B2015) have also Super AMOLED display or it's just IPS LCD?

2. Is there any additional differences between chinese and international version (I know about force touch)?

3. How about ROMs for B2015? Is there any custom ROM or at least multilanguage stock ROM withous chinese bloatware?

Thanks in advance for answers.

Does anybody know when ZTE is gonna release Android 6.0 To ZTE axon mini they promised to update it to 6.0 but they didn't
[ZTE Axon Pro] Piraze91:
Hi, i've bought a ZTE B2016.

It's à really good phone exept that it feel very slow when caméra is working. When i look to the cpu activity they are only the four less powerfull cores that are working. So when I use apps like Snapchat or Pokemon Go, everythings seem slow and if I was listening to music in the same time, the sound will crack. Is there any way to fix this ?
[ZTE Axon Pro] demenicis:
Root it. And turn on all 8 cores. I do this via script, but you can easily use CPU audiutor app. I do other tweaks too, GPU at max Freq all the time.

Having said that, I didnt ever feel the phone slow whilst playing anything, particularly any sound fault, I can even use two music players at the same time (by accident) and both seem to play well on top of each other.

Cheers.

Hi guys i contacted ZTE Company for android 6.0 update they said the following:"End-users are advised not to upgrade their phone versions until the software is released formally.

Regarding your inquiry, we would recommend that you'd better contact your network operator or dealer to consult.

Because the android updated is based on the demand of your local network operator or dealer."

what does that mean???

It means: F..k off

Hi!

Beside from the root problems, the phone should have a very good sound chip. My problem is that the best sound chip don't help much if the overall volume is too low.

Can someone tell me how the Headphone volume is? Is it loud, or as loud as a Galaxy S5 / Note 4 or an iPhone (which are all loud enough I think) I was very dissapointed with the volume of a Huawei Mate... phone, it was very very silent (Headphone - I don't care about the speaker in the phone)

Would be really nice if you can describe the output... (another thing easy to be solved if the axon is rooted...)

Have a nice day

Canadian version, it's a non Pro called A1R, still on B05 firmware too. Probably similar or the same as the A1, but seems to be lacking a lot of Android settings and Mi-assistant.
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crisvendetta:
I am a music producer and thst was the main reason why I bought the phone. I previously had an iphone 5s and an m8. Both are pretty loud, the iphone has better headphone quality though. Now, the axon mini initially was not as loud, after enabling the dolby sound that is integrated it sounds a lot louder. If I want I can reach the iphone volume by boosting a bit the custom flat eq built in and keeping everything else unchecked. It has enough power to drive my beyerdynamic dt770 pro at a satisfying level. Initially i thought it to be a problem, after getting to know the devise and how the music software works, I choose it for everyday listening over the iphone.
[ZTE Axon Pro] Lienot:
Thanks a lot. I will have this phone (the 5.5" version) in a week or so. Can't wait to test it...

No, I bought the european version, b2016v1.0b03

Maybe this works to root this phone also, will give it a try

How about installing gapps no it? My recovery crushed, cant boot to recovery... Can you help me?
[ZTE Axon Pro] Heze85:

gapps is not the problem, unpack the gapps to system/app, with a root-file-manager of your choise und do a full reset of the phone

Axon mini vibratio = none

Guys, I am constantly having missed calls when letting phone on vibration only. The vibration motor on the axon is too weak, not noticable at all. Is it only me or are you having the same issue? Would be great if vibration could be tuned as on Samsung galaxy models.
[ZTE Axon Pro] EdgeTheraited:
Can anybody link good screen protector that covers all the screen?
[ZTE Axon Pro] demenicis:
Sorry, I'm not trying to be unhelpful, but this phone has the best screen I have ever had, the touch is soooo smooth that I'd not cover it, ever. I have this phone now for about 6 months, and there isn't a scratch, repeat, a single one. I don't think you need one. This gorilla glass is super strong. I have a case, thin Silicone, that sticks out above the screen about 0.5mm, and it does the job, as long (obviously) you don't put you phone in your pocket when it is full of sand, coins and sharp screws at the same time. Actually, I doubt coins alone would damage it because I do it all the time by mistake..

I might have not been so helpfulbut believe me this screen it tough.

Cheers

---------- Post added at 08:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:01 PM ----------

Root, xposed and gravitybox. You can set the vibrations as you wish. However, although my stock vibration feels strong enough when muting it, I must say I can't record the phone actually vibrating when I receive calls. I will pay more attention and tell you what happened.

Cheers.
[ZTE Axon Pro] EdgeTheraited:
thanks for replying actually my phone screen is broken and bought new screen so i want to protect it because it is not so strong as you think i dropped it few cm and screen started to be pinkish after 2 weeks it became all black
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crisvendetta:
I have tried with gravitybox but it does not increase vibration intensity, only the duration of the vibration. Just wondering if only my phone had the vibration this weak
[ZTE Axon Pro] Bormental:
You are very careful. Our phone has no gorilla glass.

my phone's vibrator is weak too.
[ZTE Axon Pro] demenicis:
Hi. Did you have a case when you dropped it? If so, a hard or a soft one?

---------- Post added at 08:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:48 PM ----------

Have you managed to scratch your glass. Sorry I got confused between gorilla and super amoled (totally wrong)....what do we have then? Normal glass but super extra polished that even finger prints come off so easily?

Cheers.
[ZTE Axon Pro] Bormental:
We have normal glass with good oleophobic layer. It is easy to get light scratches with normal not accurate using without screen coverage. Corning Gorilla glass affraids of the sand only but not of the coins or keys. Also in manufacturer specifications gorilla glass and other protected covers are not mentioned.
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crisvendetta:
So guys, the chinese version of the phone is on B08_M version with android 6.0.1 and Mifavor 4.0. Can someone help so that we merge it with the b2016 version to make a stock Rom?
[ZTE Axon Pro] Bormental:
It is possible. But there is no way to get root on this ROM.
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crisvendetta:
I think the same chinese software we used for rooting this one works for the other versions too. The root was intended for the Zte A2016 and it works on both B2016 and b2015, so no problem for rooting the phone
[ZTE Axon Pro] Bormental:
The 5.1.1 root method does not work on 6.0.1

As I know there is no working method for rooting b2015 with android 6.0.1.

I was sure it is not a problem when having custom recovery but after flashing supersu zp I'm getting bootloop.
[ZTE Axon Pro] Bormental:
U can try it. https://yadi.sk/d/9X_oG55zuc4VZ (ROM without "Force Touch"). Flash it only via TWRP after full backup and factory reset.

If U want to roll-back to 5.1.1 than flash this zip first and reboot TWRP. After that U can flash 5.1.1 or restore your backup.

Note that root is unavailable for this ROM!

It is easy ;) just deleted modem image of b2015 and stock recovery binaries. And the ROM became universal.

Only Chinese and English. I didn't found mifavour 4.0 for force touch.

Plz give us the steps for download and how install it???

What about google play??
[ZTE Axon Pro] Bormental:
Reboot to twrp

Full backup

Factory reset

Flash zip

As for Google play I don't know. I suppose it is missing. This Chinese ROM is "as is". Try it yourself. Maybe you will need to install gapps.
[ZTE Axon Pro] simrim1:
Is it possible to root B04? How you install TWRP on B04? How is your experience of M?

Please use search in this thread about TWRP and root.

I'm currently using CM 12.1 with android L. I have no experience of M.
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crisvendetta:
Did you find a way of fixing the fingerprint issue on the CM 12.1 version? How is it in terms of fluidity and screen responsiveness compared to the stock one?
[ZTE Axon Pro] Bormental:
Fingerprint isn't supported by CM. I don't need it. As for responsiveness - there was no problem with it neither in stock nor in CM.

So guys the 6.0.1 version is just amazing. great fluidity, boot time, battery and I tested the screen, it is actually a little brighter, wasn't expecting that. The only issue I have right now is that the fingerprint does not work, any way to get this sorted?
[ZTE Axon Pro] EdgeTheraited:
is it so much better?
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crisvendetta:
It is a lot more polished, need to install gapps first and sort the problem with the fingerprint
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crisvendetta:
So I have analyzed the software B09_M version and have to say it is great. I believe it will be available via update for the b2016 model from ZTE themselves pretty soon. Right now I am using the chinese version in English and have installed gapps. The part that does not work is all the security features, cannot enter a screen lock of any type and fingerprint function does not work. That is a bit strange though.
[ZTE Axon Pro] EdgeTheraited:
talked to them but they want us to go to the dealer or where you bought the phone to ask them to tell the company to release update
[ZTE Axon Pro] demenicis:
Hi. Where did you get the Gapps from? Can you send me a link?

Have you tried to root it yet?

Thanks
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crisvendetta:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7CgmqclBesJOHJqSnlPZVNOOHc/view?usp=drivesdk . this is the file. Just open it and it will install google apps etc. Then download inside the apps you need. I tried flashin gapps from twrp but didn't work correctly. There is a method for rooting on the axon 7 which has the same ui and similar system, I guess it works for the axon mini too, will try. [MENTION=1546029]Bormental[/MENTION] can you please check if you accidentally deleted the fingerprint functionality on this software, I am very thankful to the work you have done, finally I am enjoying using my phone a lot.
[ZTE Axon Pro] EdgeTheraited:
is the main home changed like whats on Axon 7?
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crisvendetta:
From what I have seen, yes, it is the same with the chinese version of axon 7.There is only the mifavor launcher not the so called "stock android" . guys can anyone tell me how to phone verify chinese apps with chinese phone number as it does not accept other ones for downloading themes and wallpapers
[ZTE Axon Pro] Bormental:
You can try this:

Reboot to twrp, using adb edit build.prop and change there back all the text "b2016" to "b2015". Nothing else was changed in this ROM.
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crisvendetta:
will try
[ZTE Axon Pro] simrim1:
Is there anyone who is still using B01?
[ZTE Axon Pro] Bormental:
ROM B08 Android 6.0.1 MiFavour 4.0 for "Force Touch" phones.

Will work both on B2015 and B2016 with or without "Force Touch" support.

Installing instructions:

1. Boot into TWRP

2. Full Backup!

3. Factory reset

4. Flash zip

5. Owners of B2016 should install this modem image

5. Flash Gapps if needed.

If TWPR halts during backup or flashing than reboot TWRP, flash this zip, reboot TWRP again and start from point 2.

ROM is "as is" with lot of Chinese apps. Languages only Chinese and English.

ROM has no ROOT and no known methods to get ROOT.

ROM has no GAPPS.

WARNING: ALL FLASHING PROCEDURES YOU DO IN YOUR OWN RISK!
[ZTE Axon Pro] khaled9222:
What about fingerprint??is it work?
[ZTE Axon Pro] Bormental:
Who knows. I didn't try the ROM.
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crisvendetta:
having the andoid 6.0.1, maybe we can find a way to make a CM 13 rom which has fingerprint integrated.
[ZTE Axon Pro] simrim1:
Ok. Looks like none here running B01 anymore. Anybody getting notification delay issues on B04? I have tried everything like Mi-Assist, whitelist, notification enabling, power manager. But messenger notifications never show up until 10-15 mins later. Anybody got clue how to fix it? Disabling My-Assist makes no difference either.
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crisvendetta:
just deactivate mi assistant in settings, then on battery choose autostart apps on the ones you want . I didn't have any issue with the phone since then. What you can do too is install the 6.0.1 version of the rom b09 which is a lot better. Still trying to fix fingerprint on it though
[ZTE Axon Pro] simrim1:
Well 6.0.1 is working fully yet. Fingerprint is not working and there are some issues with gapps installation as well. Are you using B04? Can you please tell me again stepwise how to set it. May be I am missing something. There is one thing though. On Manage Background screen in Power Manager it is showing text on the top.

Real-time notification mode was changed to regular detection mode, which may reduce wake-up activities in the background.

Do you also see this? Thx
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crisvendetta:
6.0.1 is working, the only thing that does not work is the fingerprint. Now in power manager put on real-time all the apps you want to send notifications, I used B04 as my previous rom.
[ZTE Axon Pro] simrim1:
Is it? Other security features work? Like patterns and passwords? This is how I have setup my phone

Do you think I am missing something?
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crisvendetta:
Pattern etc won't work if you don't register fingerprint first. So I tried the B08 version and it had the same issue. Will try tonight and maybe I will get the fingerprint servixe to work. Your settings seem fine if mi assistant is disabled .
[ZTE Axon Pro] simrim1:
Yes. It is disabled.

One thing I have noticed is notifications come exactly after 20 mins. If I don't touch my phone, notification light goes off after blinking for a while. It means if you don't check notification for say 5 mins then you will never know if there is something waiting for you until you turn the screen on yourself. Is it normal with every Axon mini? Thx
[ZTE Axon Pro] marus2:
Same on B04. Led will stop blinking after some time.
[ZTE Axon Pro] simrim1:
Does everybody see the text, I have highlighted, on their Power Manager screen?

Thanks
[ZTE Axon Pro] khaled9222:
My friend,

1- go to Mi assistant

2-press on acceleration

3-press on setting icon

4-switch( off )screen - lock

Then you will get your notification on time
[ZTE Axon Pro] simrim1:
Thanks for the tip. It was already off. I turned it on then off but no good. Any other suggestion?
[ZTE Axon Pro] Crisvendetta:
I didn't have any issues on B04. Just install the B09_M. It is better than android 5.1.1 rom and CM in terms of fluidity and battery. Will get the fingerprint fixed tmrw.

However I managed to score more on lollipop on both cpu 14500 and ram 4600.

Fingerprint

I was wondering if there is a difference of fingerprint sensor used in B2015 and B2016. I mean may be they come from two different vendors and hence use different drivers. It can also be confirmed by flashing B2015 Lollipop ROM on B2016. If fingerprint still doesn't work then it will be a sort of proof that there is a difference. of sensors. It is just a clue. May be I am wrong.
