Anyone else happen to have this phone? The device runs on an MT6572 with 1GB, er, 512MB RAM, a 960x540 display, and comes with a swiveling camera (which is why some vendors would pass it off as an "Oppo" model). Android version is reported to be 4.4.2 Kitkat, API verison 19, but afaik the SOC used tops out at Jellybean, so can anyone confirm this, or is there an app to expose it as a fake?

Here's a snap of my phone:

DealExtreme store page: Mod Edit by [MENTION=4036181]Darth[/MENTION] : selling site link removed. Thanks.

http://www.aungsanmks.com/2016/01/oppo-x-bo-v5-mt6572-flashtool-330-mb.html

TWRP image (works on the "Oppo" variants. Should also work on other X-BO V5 ROMs from what I can attest):

http://d-h.st/6C3j

I did a dump of it just recently (even though there's already ROM images for it; had to do mine as I couldn't seem to find any "Oppo"-branded ones yet). I might do a CWM or TWRP recovery for this in case you guys are interested in customising the device in some way, or perhaps even port the ColorOS UI to it for maximum lulz. :D

EDIT: I couldn't find any hidden settings applets to toggle between device spec options (i.e. fake 4G/RAM/boot logo, etc) other than a "flash select" menu to change the reported internal storage size, but the following properties are confirmed to work:

persist.sys.changeain (use numbers 1 to 7 to cycle between animations)
persist.sys.signaltype (setting this to "normal" sans quotes displays the actual cellular radio type instead of forcing the UI to display either 3G or 4G)
persist.sys.devicememory (yep, it's for faking the internal memory size. Couldn't force it to display the real capacity for some reason [EDIT: Set it to "true" sans quotes for the phone to report the real capacity])

[Android General] blakegriplingph:
Have you tried checking the IMEIs on the phone? I could send you an NVRAM bin backup if that one's hosed i.e. you're getting invalid serial numbers.
[Android General] blakegriplingph:
Seems like some variants appear to be infected with com.android.ys.services or the ZZPush trojan. In my case it's embedded in /system/priv-app. Not sure if it's the only gremlin residing or if the manufacturer was making a fool of themselves by further infecting the firmware by integrating it deeply into the boot partition as what I attested with a friend's Allwinner tablet:

https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/...e805058f3d85381d215ca778/analysis/1458692140/
[Android General] blakegriplingph:
Sorry for the triple-post, but thought I might ask if anyone knows how to force the gradient status bar on later firmware revisions. I'd like to use the "S9_72KK_KK_3G_EMMC_32_4_XX_V36_ZXMD 20160116-153508 – yuanda72_cwet_kk-user 4.4.2 KOT49H" build as it has the option to show the actual RAM and /sdcard capacities, yet for some reason the gradient-style status bar doesn't show up whenever I use a third-party launcher.

Trebuchet on stock ROM:

Apex/Trebuchet/whatever on later builds:

Oh and I've also attached a small utility to change the faked device settings to their real values - special thanks to [MENTION=1190708]hrk[/MENTION] for the code I used to issue setprop and a bunch of other commands. ;)
[Android General] Nick Kosgei:
The app did not work

Is the app supposed to work, cause my phone is rooted but still the fake values remain.
[Android General] blakegriplingph:
Strange, it worked on my end and I was able to change the faked storage and cellular modem values to their real equivalents on my phone. Can you give me your phone's firmware build number? Also, if it's running off a later build, can you try updating SuperSU and the su binary to see if my utility works?

Can you tell us your phone's firmware version? Try deleting android_service_800000_0923_outsea.apk,the default launcher and the theme app (forgot the name of that one, let me look for it in a bit) off /system/priv-app then restart your phone. I don't have the phone with me unfortunately.

is there anyway to use burst shot mode with the color mode set to vivid ?

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Mattressguy:
Went to Best Buy to test my music files through the auxiliary port of an aftermarket stereo to confirm it is not my car stereo that is causing the horrible playback experience. I did confirm that my cable nor car stereo is responsible and I highly suggest you try the feature out before it's too late if you plan on listening to music any way other than Bluetooth or headphones.

Upon going to the dedicated Samsung area to play with some display phones I came across a feature that is missing in Tmobile phones called GALAXY LABS. SETTINGS, ADVANCED SETTINGS, GALAXY LABS.

These two issues along with the disabled white pages app (yes I downloaded the free version which then merges similar named Facebook contacts with other contacts and will show me for example Jess's profile picture on my wife Jessica's incoming phone call and my wife doesn't have Facebook and has an assigned picture to her google contact info) I deleted the app and no more merging of contacts yet tmobile name id identifies correctly. Well I believe I may jump ship and try the G5

Hi guys

I was trying to downgrade my shield tablet K1 to Android 5.0 after auto-update

I downloaded the factory image for K1 here https://developer.nvidia.com/gameworksdownload#?search=SHIELD%20Tablet%20K1&tx=$additional,shield

and followed the instructions in the how-to file

when I input "fastboot flash system system.img" I failed( Remote: insufficient memory)

But I wiped the data/cache before and internal storage was almost empty

I also tried the version 1.1.1 ie android 6.0

It failed the same

Any suggestions? Please help

Use the Flash All .bat file

When You extract the files there should be a .bat file called Flash All just run that when you are in the bootloader and you should be able to start recovery and return it back to original stock.

[Galaxy Tab S2 General] DeeXii:
There is a new OTA / SmartSwitch update for the T710.

T710XXU2BPB1 is the latest firmware.

I have requested the source and hopefully can get someone to make a permissive kernel soon. :)
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Rm4n:
I'm downloading it right now.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] ptfdmedic:
All the 5.1.1 kernels work. I've been rooted with recovery since yesterday morning.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] DeeXii:
Yes but three of the updates since OH7 have had updated kerenels. OL6 was just an updated kernel. One can assume they updated the kernels for a reason.

So say you update to the new OTA PB1 but use the posted permissive kernel you will have a PB1 with a OH6 kernel which cam out 8 months ago.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] Rm4n:
Looks like the battery life has really improved in this build.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] engine95:
That might be the case. But also remember, with each update comes possible lockdown. ie bootloader, losing root, losing permissive kernel.

Not all updates are good is my point.

Remember, I've built the OJ1 kernel for the OJ1 ROM. But nobody has gotten an update via Samsung via S2 update, past that. OL6, PB1 source or .tar may be out but not in use. Hmmmm wonder why.

And with kernel updates, usually comes updated bootloaders, and ROM's with updates to use the updated kernel.

Just food for thought.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] DeeXii:
I received PB1 via OTA. I also updated my wife's Tab S2 via SmartSwitch to PB1. So they are indeed in use.

Also FYI OL6 was just a kernel update, the Platform (ROM) was the same as OJ1.

OJ1, OL6, and PB1 all have the same bootloader. So you can always upgrade and downgrade between these.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] ptfdmedic:
Bootloader seems to be the same and is the B2 still. I'm running the NN 1.3 kernel with zero problems.
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] wirelesskebab:
well, if you get impatient you can always flash supersu in systemless mode without permissive kernel, works excellent, never looked back. (I guess there are a few apps that get cranky about that, if you didn't already know, I guess titanium backup might be one.) Dunno, don't quote me on it. :^)
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] DeeXii:
Impatient? What are we waiting for? We already have a couple SELinux Permissive PB1 kernels that allow for normal root. :P
[Galaxy Tab S2 General] DeeXii:
Impatient? What are we waiting for? We already have a couple SELinux Permissive kernels that allow for normal root. :P

Here is one of them. Just use the CF-AutoRoot that Ashrx posted after you flash this kernel.

Is there a way to make sure Kodi doesn't update on me? Thanks.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ElfinJNoty:
Open play store, settings, turn off "auto update apps" should do the trick.

Heads up though: after some turmoil within the Kodi team, and Jodi's ever increasing frustration with box sellers and them catching heat for third party addons..... The lead developer(only developer) responsible for Android version left the team. Kodi didn't want to continue supporting Android versions in future releases so.... He left.

He did however, resume his "SPMC" app which is a fork of Kodi with many optimizations and feature improvements specifically for android devices. Can't find it on the AndroidTV or Leanback Play Store. But if you goto PlayStore on a PC, and search for "SPMC" you will find it and can click install, then select your Nexus Player. It will install in just a few minutes. Will show up on your AndroidTV homepage.

Alternatively, you can web search "SPMC" and goto its website and download, view changelog, etc.

It also now supports Android TV suggested content on the home screen. This means that if you have movies/TV Shows added to your library, they will appear as suggestions much like the YouTube app, or Hulu, or Netflix, etc.

Pretty cool feature?

[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ElfinJNoty:

(NOTE: This is NOT my phone, but I do have it until it's fixed)

I tried rooting this MetroPCS Galaxy Core Prime via Kingroot, something went wrong. After I rooted it, I gave it back to its owner, and he came back from Spring Break with a Samsung paperweight. Recovery doesn't work, neither does booting it up regularly. It gives me the " Custom Binary blocked by FAP. " and in red text, it says " SECURE FAIL: KERNEL " So, I was like "Hey, no biggie, let's just flash the stock firmware." Well, there's an issue there. It boots into Download mode, but it doesn't show up on Odin. I REALLY need help, as this isn't my phone. Thanks guys.

flashed stock firmware and still get only the model number to blink on, then a vibration. same thing over and over and over.

For a split second, I was able to get into recovery mode, but only once. I picked "system reboot" and it went right back to the

model number blinking. Kies won't recognize the serial number, Odin says "success" but the phone still a no-go. Any ideas?

S/N

Galaxy Core Prime stuck in endless boot, trying everything

Hey guys, I found this thread and I'm hoping I can figure out this massively frustrating issue with the Galaxy Core Prime as well.

It was stuck in endless boot so I downloaded the Samsung drivers to my PC and then used Odin (v3.10.7) to load twrp-3.0.2-0-coreprimelte.img.tar (from dl.twrp.me/coreprimelte/) on AP and clicked Start. Failed.

My log from Odin is below, and the phone showed "Custom Binary Recovery blocked by FRP Lock".

<ID:0/003> Added!!

<ID:0/003> Odin engine v(ID:3.1100)..

<ID:0/003> File analysis..

<ID:0/003> SetupConnection..

<ID:0/003> FAIL! (Auth)

<ID:0/003>

<ID:0/003> Complete(Write) operation failed.

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

Now I'm trying to use Kies3 firmware upgrade to see if it'll get the phone out of endless boot mode but it required a serial number and I don't have one. Don't have the box, and it's not on the sticker.

Check it out -- am I nuts or is this void of SN?

Meanwhile I'm downloading the firmware to flash with Odin but it's going to be a while before the download finishes... so in the mean time I'm trying whatever I can.

I tried looking up how to bypass the FRP lock but couldn't find directions that involved not being able to boot the actual phone.

Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] xCrakerZ:
I believe the S/N on your sticker is the FCC ID.
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] heymishka:
Victory is mine!

I tried that to no avail - luckily I just successfully reinstalled the firmware with Odin3 v3.10.7!

It stayed stuck on the boot screen for a few minutes and then suddenly it kicked into the welcome screen. VICTORY!

The phone was wiped of course, but at least it's a phone again. Thanks everyone - I know I just posted in this thread today but I read through the whole thing and it helped me figure this out. :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] xCrakerZ:
Glad you make it :D
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] FardeenTGO:
Ok you'll need to go to sammobile.com, go to firmware and search for Galaxy core prime (the model) and download the firmware.

Then download the latest Odin and open the .exe and select PDA or AP and select the firmware you just downloaded.

Now boot your phone to Download mode b yholding the home, power and volume down button at the same time and when a warning dialog

appears press the volume up button and now connect the phone to your PC and click on start in Odin.

After the flasihng process ends, you will have your Galaxy Core Prime working perfectly.

If you want to root your phone again then I recommend checking the OEM Unlock in the developer option in android settings, this will disable FRP/FAP Lock.

[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] FardeenTGO:
Got to sammobile.com and download your rom. Switch your phone to download mode, connect your phone with your PC (if your PC cannot detect your phone Odin then uninstall and reinstall Samsung drivers on your PC) and select AP or PDA in Odin and select your ROM (the zip file) and wait until it's finished flashing the ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] hydroman202:
Not to be unkind, but I don't think there is any firmware for the sm-s820l. If you find any, could you post a link?
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] FardeenTGO:
Download the latest Odin and Samsung driver and install it.

Download the stock ROM of your phone in sammobile.com

Go to the download mode by long pressing on volume down+power+home button.

Connect your phone to your pc with a usb cable.

Launch Odin and choose PDA or AP.

Select the stock rom of your phone and press on download in Odin.

It may take some minutes and when the process is complete, reboot your phone if it stays on the download mode.
