Android 6.0 Marshmallow
[Device Reviews and Information] bigrammy:
I hope so :fingers-crossed:

The "6" gives us a clue I think :confused:

Maybe it's just a Beta ROM for now but still would be nice to have a look at it.

We just need someone to download it for us. :rolleyes:

Can anyone help - I ordered this phone off eBay from UK warehouse but Chinese seller. Box was unsealed when it arrived but the excuse for this could be that the original eu charger was removed and a UK adapted put in instead.

I did a massage bytes scan straight away and it came back clean, same with 360 security scan.

360 security and found something

BUT

i've browsed through the app list under settings and the only one I see which I'm not sure what is is something called "pandora's box" and pandora's box service 3.6mb and 86kb respecively.

under app permissions for the second it basically lists everythings phone calls, texts, camera , audio gps, contacts, set alarm , screen lock, add and move acounts, change system settings, change network connections, control flashlight.....

neither can be uninstalled from the phone or disabled, just force stopped which makes no difference.

i have googled pandoras box which comes up to be an actual real app BUT this is NOT what is on my phone as I can install it which I wouldn't be able to do and as I said nothing called Pandora's box appears in my app tray it point appears under settongs-apps-all apps

Can take as screen shot of needed.

Can anyone help at all shed some light on this. I would just return thee phone but I'd have to do it signed to make sure the seller couldn't just say they never got the rerun paackaage which would cost £10-20 and it's probably not worth the hassle for thee cost of the phone.

It's a really nice phone with good specs and design build I hope to be able to resolve this and keep it.

Hope someone out there caann help

hi im a total noob i've never rooted before or anything.

can you explain to me more or point me to step by step guide.

i really don't want to brick the phone.
[Device Reviews and Information] bigrammy:
Hi bro maybe I should of been a little more specific :o

It is the "PLUS +" Version i was referring to which is now running 7.1.1 I think. Here

It's always best to use the original ROM rather than a port of a port if that makes sense. rill wifi and bluetooth should in theory work with the source build ROM of the same SoC and kernel version.

So in short the only problems we would need to overcome would be the camera, LCD/Screen, touch screen, and any other HARDWARE specific stuff so for this we would need to try to isolate stuff from the stock rom hence why most porting tut's say if you have problems with camera use libcam*********.so etc etc blaa blaa so we are using the stuff made & compiled specifically for our phone :eek:

So in theory only the actual hardware is a problem . Luckily our phone does not have too many sensors to try narrow down so time and penitence is the only thing limiting us up to 6.0/MM after that wee need the device and kernel source.

I hope that helps your and others understanding. :o

PS: It is a Thankless task porting ROM's as most people will only complain rather than help or be constructive hence why there is not much in the way of custom roms for many MTK devices.

I thought once I discovered how to root the Sony C4 and give them a working TWRP recovery bootloader unlock and custom boot.img that the custom roms would come flooding in but we have not had a single one to my knowledge :crying:
[Device Reviews and Information] virusx:
No [MENTION=7958441]drei.liter.milch[/MENTION] , it doesn't affect the WiFi connection itself, so I decided to leave it like that for the moment.

I'm pretty confident that it can be corrected by reverting to stock LP and upgrading to MM the right way.

best marshmallow rom?

Hello! I have an Infocus m560 that i've used for a bit less than a year now and have fiddled with the roms before. I had MM on it for a while that worked flawlessly but i tried rooting it to remove some annoying apps which did not work at the time. i then tried to downgrade to 5.1 but the difference was too great for me to not notice, so i tried flashing mm on it again, just this time i forgot what rom.. I flashed a few roms but to no success, one even gave me nvram and imei errors, which i fixed and have had the phone on 5.1 rooted for a while now, but figured it's about time for a new rom and hopefully mm, so here i am asking which marshmallow rom is the best for this phone, and by the best i mean the one with the least bugs :p Thank you very much for your help, looking forward to hearing from you

Hi [MENTION=8047510]ened_celaj[/MENTION]

I'm on 622Q for few weeks now and I did not find any bug. I don't play game or watch movies on my device.

I had few bugs under 622D that disappeared with 622Q.

I had my IMEI, NVRAM and SN erased but it's not due to the rom itself, only a bad flashing.

I had to flash back to LP in order to write my IMEIs back, it was not possible with any MM rom.

622Q has been pulled down Infocus website but I think it's because people were flashing it from LP rom.

The best way would be to come from stock LP rom, verifying that you don't have any IMEI, NVRAM errors and then flash full MM rom (622B-A02 or 622D-A05, I had my issues with 622D-A03), then upgrade to 622Q.

Do not forget to also flash the correct recovery if you plan to use it to upgrade/update.

Perhaps [MENTION=3924647]bigrammy[/MENTION] could be more precise, as I'm not an expert.
[Device Reviews and Information] bigrammy:
Your advice is good :good:

But just to re affirm:

The general rule and advice for almost all Mediatek devices is when you change Android Version UP OR Down use SPFlashtool in "Firmware Upgrade" mode this prevents any IME NVRAM issues some may be experiencing when flashing.

Choosing Firmware Upgrade mode will wipe your data and cache by default but to me that should always be the case when you switch Android Versions by any method because the changes are too numerous to be dirty flashed. I have never experienced any issues following that advice. :fingers-crossed:

Just a word of warning for others, I have seen numerous reports of IMEI Wifi errors etc etc caused by using xposed on 6.0 so PLEASE do your homework and research if your going to use it. I have never used it myself so I cannot comment on the cause or offer any advice on it whatsoever I am just relaying what I have seen in other mtk device threads. :confused:
[Device Reviews and Information] ened_celaj:
I'll try doinng 622-a05 then 622q, i've tried flashing 622q from stock lp with twrp and my phone wouldn't turn on, just stuck on the boot animation. Any help with that?

Uhm.. 622-a05 gives me nvram error when upgrading with sutl.. Trying to flash 622-a03 with firmware upgrade as bigrammy said.

622-a03 erased my imei and is giving nvram even after using firmware update.. rip
[Device Reviews and Information] bigrammy:
No amount of flashing will repair a already damaged nvram files.

I suspect we are not been told the whole truth as to just how the nvram was damaged in the first place. :confused:

I doubt any official firmware would do any permanent damage to the nvram But flashing a ROM not made for the ZM1 would.

Your nvram files are normally backed up in the protect_f and protect_s partitions and given that these were not damaged or overwrote would normally be enough to restore your nvram when using 5.0
[Device Reviews and Information] ened_celaj:
Updates updates updates

Okay so.. After restoring my imei and making sure that nvram error was not present on 5.1, i did firmware upgrade again to 622D a05, which went good but did show nvram error. As far as i know this nvram error does not actually produce any issues, except for being annoying, but i might be completely wrong so please inform me on that. If that is the case and the error does not produce any issues im good with keeping 622d a05 just to upgrade to 622q but im stuck at this point. If you have any spare time could you please include instructions to flash and enter the MM Twrp recovery that you have posted in this forum thread? That's what im failing to manage and to be honest, don't think i have found the best way of doing yet. Thank you very much.
[Device Reviews and Information] bigrammy:
SPFlashtool :confused:

1. Follow the instruction about copying the TWRP folder and it's content to the root of your Internal SDcard along with the latest SuperSU.zip then power off the phone.

2. Flash the TWRP recovery with SPFlashtool. (There are hundreds if not thousands of tut's for this so use google if your unsure.)

3. When the Flash is complete unplug the phone's USB lead from the PC and wait 2 mins.

NOTE: You must now boot to recovery first before doing anything else. If you accidentally boot back to system you will need to reflash the TWRP recovery again as it will be replaced by the stock system

The Buttons used to enter recovery are Volume UP + and the Power Button. Timing is critical so practice the procedure.

4. With the Phone Off connect the USB Lead to the PC.

5. Now Press and hold both Volume UP and the Power Button Until you see the Infocus Logo then release the Power Button Only.

(Note if you see the phone go to charging mode unplug wait a few seconds and re start from step 4)

6. When you see a Black Screen release the Volume button and wait until you see TWRP.

Note: First time use can take up to 2 minutes so do not touch the screen until 2 mins has passed then press the power button briefly to wake the screen if you missed the brief screen lock notification shown by TWRP.

Regarding the NVRAM warning error on WiFi.

I Just tested this on another mtk device I have laying around to test the theory and so I could test the Fix.

The device is running 6.0 so no need to roll back to 5.x for the FIX

Flashing a 6.0 system.img made for another device finally gave me the nvram error in WiFi Settings. :victory:

Follow this tut for the fix and I can confirm this survives reboots.

TUT HERE Back up the files first :good:
[Device Reviews and Information] virusx:
I tested this fix several times but the NVRAM error keeps reseting itself to 00:00... after reboot on my device, giving me a "bad" 00:08... type of Mac addy.

If [MENTION=7958441]drei.liter.milch[/MENTION] wants to test it, the WIFI file on the Infocus V5 is located on Device/nvdata/APCFG/APRDEB/

Device/data/ got a "nvram" link to the "nvdata" folder.

Still... you're the Infocus V5 MT6753, 5.2" FHD, 2GB RAM, 16GB ROM, 2450mAh for less than 100€/110US$ thread hero [MENTION=3924647]bigrammy[/MENTION] ;)
[Device Reviews and Information] bigrammy:
Does the bad Mac address show up in your /settings/about phone/status or is it the correct one?
[Device Reviews and Information] virusx:
The bad one... If I open the WiFi after changing the MAC using HEX editor, as soon as I start the WiFi the file is filled with 00:00:00... again, giving me a random 00:08... type of address.

The same behaviour happens when I reboot the phone.

I tried to left the file unwritable and changing the ownership without success.

I used Root Explorer, Total Commander and Macro Hex Edit

Google Phone

I installed the Google Phone Version: 5.1.131226882 (6.0+) on our phone. Beautiful, but no sound and vibration when a call
[Device Reviews and Information] drei.liter.milch:
I didn't do research on the nvram thing at all.. But generally I don't think it's a big thing to roll back and fix it there.. :)

But..

I have great news for you my friends..! Fantastic news..!!!

Finally I got the Resurrection Remix Rom running on my phone! :D:D:victory:

It isn't fully functional at the moment (unfortunately No Sound at all) but I think I can bug out this in the next few days..

GPS, BT, CellNetwork is working fine :svetius:

Will upload it tomorrow!

[MENTION=3924647]bigrammy[/MENTION] I do the development and porting thing just for the love (and because I want to run the rom myself of course)

Especially for such an “unpopular“ phone I hardly could expect screaming masses waiting for a new rom :laugh:

Here in Germany the phone isn't even released officially. Only very few people are even aware of InFocus as a brand..

---------- Post added at 06:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:18 PM ----------

Without porting over? Just wiped and installed? Great!! :svetius:

Can u please post the link?
[Device Reviews and Information] bigrammy:
Sounds like selinux maybe enforcing things. :(

You could try copy the WIFI file to your sdcard and make the changes with hex editor.

Boot to recovery and mount nvdata in the mount menu then copy the edited WIFI file from your sdcard and replace the one in /nvdata/APCFG/APRDEB

Then using adb shell

chmod 0660 /nvdata/APCFG/APRDEB/WIFI

Then

chown root:system /nvdata/APCFG/APRDEB/WIFI

Then check the permissions with adb shell

ls /nvdata/APCFG/APRDEB -al

WIFI should look like this.

-rw-rw---- 1 root system 514 Dec 4 13:16 WIFI

Reboot and hope for the best... :fingers-crossed:

[Device Reviews and Information] bigrammy:
[MENTION=1470057]virusx[/MENTION]

I reproduced the nvram error on my Infocus. :silly:

The only thing that worked was doing a "Firmware Upgrade" using the MM A03 which is for SPFlashtool.

When the ROM booted I hit the right button for 2 Chinese language popups then set my language and went through the rest of setup.

after several reboots I still do not have any nvram errors but I do have a different valid Mac address to the original one :eek:
[Device Reviews and Information] virusx:
Great news, congratulations [MENTION=7958441]drei.liter.milch[/MENTION]

I'll test the first method soon, the nvram issue is not bothering me that much as the WiFi is still working so I won't roll back to 622D for the moment. Thanks [MENTION=3924647]bigrammy[/MENTION]

EDIT: I tested once the recovery/adb method but the WIFI file keeps reseting to 00:08 after reboot.
[Device Reviews and Information] drei.liter.milch:
Hi fellows!

Sorry for the little delay.. I wish I have could bugged out the sound problem, which is really bothering me..

but I guess, with some helping hands and the "power of few" we can bug out this ROM and make it work perfectly :)

I followed this tutorial (2nd Method) -> https://atozhacks.blogspot.de/2016/07/64bit-rom-porting-how-to-port-roms.html

I ported it from UMI Touch (which was also ported from Elephone S3 I guess).. so it's a port from a port..

found here -> http://forum.turkdevs.com/konu/unofficial-umi-touch-resurrection-remix-5-7-4-rr-rom.10926/

FYI: The original Resurrection Remix ROMs are prerooted with SuperSU. I removed it, because I prefer the magisk solution ;)

So you have to root it by yourself again after flashing..

-> Get SuperSU here

->Get Magisk here

The zip is TWRP-flashable. I always flashed it from 622Q_A04, but I think you can flash it from any other MM-Version (not sure about that. Do a factory reset before flashing, otherwise you will get an ERROR. You can use old and new TWRP-Versions (thx [MENTION=3924647]bigrammy[/MENTION])

Nothing more to say I guess..

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me. I'll try to help out..

Have fun!

Another Upgrade Roadmap... ;o)

Hi,

a short upgrade guide which worked for me and should be clean roadmap - coming from LP / TWRP / rooted (of course things can be done in many different ways - here's only what worked fine for me ... ):

.) Backup! (I use TWRP and Titanium - TWRP for fallback, Titanium for Data Recovery on the new system)

.) Flash ZM1-0-622D-00WW-A03.zip using SPFlashtool, "Firmware Upgrade"

.) Boot into System, let everything install ...

.) Copy TWRP - Folder of NEW-FIXED-ZM1-MM-TWRP-recovery.zip to your internal sdcard (Details Post #182) - optional, only for root

.) Copy ZM1-622Q-0-00WW-A04-update-TWRP.zip on your external sdcard (or internal, OTG-Device ...)

.) Copy latest flashable SuperSu to sdcard (or internal, OTG-Device ...)

.) Flash TWRP - recovery NEW-FIXED-ZM1-MM-TWRP-recovery.zip using SPFlahtool, tick recovery only, set the path to the imgage file, "Download only"

.) Boot into recovery (phone loading, Vol+ and Power pressed - I needed several times to get it right) :eek:

.) Follow the instructions by bigrammy, Post #182 concerning the flash of ZM1-622Q-0-00WW-A04-update-TWRP.zip

Optional: root

.) Flash SuperSu from TWRP

Optional: install another language

.) Download from Playstore "Ländereinstellung" from SightIdea Studio

.) Follow the tutorial to set the needed rights via adb (didn't work with root-strange, but true)

.) Set the system to the desired language via the app

After everything works fine, do a backup (TWRP) - it's alway nice to have a "fallback rom" if somethings screws up accidently. You can also do a readback with SPflashtools to have a offline Backup - to be on the very save side ...

Thanks to all - especially bigrammy for the fantastic work! THX-Button(s) pressed ;o) ...

My Feedback concerning the latest MM - ROM: no glitches / bugs so far - still a fine battery life (even better than on 5.0), still a view chinese app's, Pandora - service still there, quick settings still modded, "clear all", " Task Manager" still present in the recent apps. Security patch level: Dec 2016 - smooth and stable so far, works like charm for me ... I recommend upgrading :good:

RR Rom

[MENTION=7958441]drei.liter.milch[/MENTION]

I have had a quick look at the RR port with regard to the Audio issue. :eek:

Still no luck fixing it and not many clues in the log cat. :confused:

I will keep taking a look in my spare time.

It would be so nice to have the source code for this device so we could build against the MAD teams n.7.1.1 https://github.com/MediatekAndroidDevelopers/android_device_jiayu_s3plus_n560a

I keep emailing Infocus for the source but I have had no luck so far. :crying:
[Device Reviews and Information] drei.liter.milch:
yes, the source-code would be great!

but I had no luck so far porting some rom from s3plus.. always stucks on bootlogo :confused:

I have a slightly improved version of the umi-port with at least photo-cam working. but still no sound (although I got away from the fc-problem.. I can now open AudioFX and play with the eq, but my phone remains quiet. and GoogleApp recognizes my "OK Google.." but then closes..
[Device Reviews and Information] bigrammy:
Me too :(

It is very difficult to workout what needs to be changed with it been a port of a port. :eek:

We really need to pull all our pre-built device blobs and then compile a ROM against the MAD teams source using our pre-built kernel.

This needs plenty of time plus lots of trial and error until we find the combo that works.

I think the FTM_system and FTM_boot (FTM=Field Test Mode) are basically the device blobs as these seem to be enough to boot the device for basic functions adb etc and SUT tool. :confused:

German Language in Android 6.0

Hello,

i have read through all the informations on the update of my Infocus m560. After updating it using ZM1-6110-0-00WW-A01.zip I only had a chance of using it in English. In the forum I have read that version ZM1-0-622D-00WW-A03.zip also contains the German language. After installing this on my phone I am still limited to English as there is no selection for German.

Is there any multiligual version of Android 6 available for the m560?
