Thanks for the feedback! The ulefone custumer service team finally replied, and as some of you suggested, they also said to flash the ROM.

This was the reply, if anyone is interested:

"Sorry, sounds like the software is broken.

Please follow this link: http://ulefone.com/download/vienna.html to flash the offcial ROM.If you find the text guidance hard to follow, there is also an intuitive video guidance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TPgAvtYGJXA

Have a nice day!

I got the same error on Ulefone Vienna after only two days of use. I reflashed the phone and it was working ok for a month! Now the problem reappeared. I then reflashed the phone but the problem reappeared after 2 hours. I found a newer 5.1 dated 23/06/2016 and I flashed that but the problem represented after 3-4 hours. After another reflash the problem happened 30 minutes later. There is some serious problem and I do not know how to fix it! And the Ulefone support isn't helpfull ( you cannot expect a customer to reflash the phone every few days/hours !! ).
[Android General] sandrap:
EXACTLY the same problem here - phone is unusable and problem reappears after factory reset (emmc option in chinese boot menu) and even after several new flashes. WTF?

just gonna throw a thought in here since i noticed some weird stuff: malfunctioning malware (what might be the scam.tgr and scam_sony.tgr files? both included in the original ROM)

EDIT2: removed additional paranoia talk ;)

UPDATE:

well this is interesting: after every reset of my device i was always forced to connect to wifi in the setup wizard and also I had to enter my google credentials twice. (anyone else?)

now i rooted, removed a ton of (system) applications and voila: the SKIP button is not greyed out anymore - one weird thing less! I'm pretty sure that I removed fingerprint sensor functionality entirely in the process. mind this is not due to rooting but removal of the system apps. Can provide a list of those if I experience any further improvement
[Android General] laneyyy:
What system apps did you remove? I removed gallery at the start and then my camera stopped working, so I never tried again.
[Android General] sandrap:
Next hunch: stagefright vulnerability

Logcat posted earlier shows a lot of audio parsing debug output. The player is essentially trying to find out which format the audio file might be - pretty weird, since I did not copy any music on the device and never noticed any sound being played at boot.

Malicious code not working as as expected but causing systemUI to crash sounds reasonable IMHO. Getting your phone number to send a malicious MMS is no problem - maybe thanks to all the FOTA stuff on the phone?

http://www.xda-developers.com/stagefright-explained-the-exploit-that-changed-android/

EDIT: I'm 99% sure now that the "SystemUI has stopped" problem rendering the phone unusable is due to an exploiting vulnerabilities in libstagefright.

-Pre installed malware sends your phone number to the attacker (prove?)

-Attacker sends malicious MMS which you'll never see

-Payload doesn't work as expected by the attacker -> crashes systemUI

-SystemUI restarts as intended by Android

-code gets executed again -> crashes, and so on

possible mitigation:

-don't insert a SIM

-reflash ROM

-disable MMS auto retrieval

-insert SIM and quickly delete all MMS settings in the APN settings (my provider sends the MMS settings as soon as i register in the network)

-hope for the best
[Android General] mrpn900:
hello,

I've been experiencing the UI stopping. I have a mobile data only SIM on the phone though. I guess I can not receive any MMS. Nor do I get any MMS settings sent by my operator
[Android General] Geomatic:
I've also been experiencing the UI stopping problem. It occured after installing the PayPal app. Uninstalling PayPal after a reboot (without switching off) fixed the problem.

I also keep getting the "System UI has stopped" after some hours of use

I updated to the latest 5.1 (6.0 was giving me imei error)

Sill nothing.

Im ready to throw it to the garbage bin...
[Android General] mrpn900:
after flashing the June 5.1 version with SP flashing tool and NOT using fingerprint reader my Vienna has worked for a week now. I've had to reboot to get apps from Play store installed but otherwise looking promising. It was very near that I sent the phone for repair (had prepared the customs documents for return and everything)
[Android General] megthebest:
probably we need to wait until they release Marshmallow..

Android 5.1 for Vienna was born with a lot a bugs.. and Ulefone now is pushing Future..

so Vienna was the wrong device for that period..

Is unbeliveable that Ulefone lied about support... Vienna has great potential, we know, but software is buggy and never optimized in three months
[Android General] mrpn900:
I hope it is a good sign that they still have not released version 6.0. Ironing out the problems before release. I already have reflashed my phone 5 times. It is enough...
[Android General] megthebest:
Beta Marshmallow i'm testing comes with some improvements... but still buggy..

I hope they will release an official MM rom within this month..
[Android General] mrpn900:
Are you referring to the public beta 6.0 or some beta tester version?
[Android General] megthebest:
The public Beta..
[Android General] mrpn900:
Power button "sleeping"

Any of you others experiencing this? I stopped using fingerprint to avoid UI stopping. Do not know whether that was the actual reason for crashes. Now I have June 5.1 version in use.. Vienna locks itself after a while narmally. When I press power on, Viennat wakes up. If I let Vienna stay untouched for a longer time I have to press power button twice to get it up again. My fingerpring scanner was doing the same thing. After a long time of no operation FP did not work. Only pressing power button helped. I wonder if my Vienna actually has some hardware issues. How aboput recovery mode? Do you get recovery mode by pressing Vol-Up + Power. I always have to use Vol-down+power

Edited: phone was dozing with screen on but very low light density so I first switched it off and back on...
[Android General] carstenheuer:
Can i flash the rom's with SP Flashtool too? Or its only possible with SP MDT?
[Android General] megthebest:
Hi, i always use SP Flashtool without any issue ..

version 5.1604 or newer ..

in case of error in loading scatter, you need to delete checksum files in the extracted folder
[Android General] carstenheuer:
ok thanks! :)

do you think there is more development of rom's for this phone when android 6.0 final is out? :fingers-crossed:
[Android General] megthebest:
i hope so.. but it seems that Ulefone will not expect too much success for Vienna..

It is still a good device in everithing all details.. but lack of support if you can see, two months without solving the issues appeared here in the forum, is for sure a bad story..
[Android General] Alberto96:
I have tried to create a ROM using latest Android M Beta but....i had so many problems that i decided to wait final release.
[Android General] carstenheuer:
After getting again problems with crashing dialer in 5.1, i wanted to test 6.0 beta.

To flash the rom i must format all partitions... dont know before that i lose then my imei's :/

But i found a nice tool to restore my imei's :) (mobile uncle)

After trying a lot off app to change dpi... i found the way over adb

adb shell wm density 460

adb reboot

and boom all things are bigger and i can read it better :)

The 6.0 beta runs fine... everything work good after some hours of testing!

Only one crash when i set other music in alarm clock.

I had installed TWRP & Super SU & Xposed

To get xposed working i found a solution in 4dpa forum!!!

Flash first "grorkmod" and the "xposed"!!! :good:

Almost perfect, there are only some little lags here and there on high-load, probably they need to optimize it a bit more, but still better than Lollipop.

[Android General] megthebest:
Very good rom as i have seen.

I tested for 3 hours and i'm really happy for the good work of Ulefone in improving customer satisfaction.

The old andorid 5.1 was really crappy (system ui stopped and some issues during use) .. this new release 6.0 is really one step ahead!

new settings for display (non only for miravision, font download/selection, adaptative brightness and so on), but also for some improvement on audio (now notification volume is separated from ringtone volume) and smoothness (if you work in developers options, put animation at 0.5x and change launcher).

It's also good for Xposed and alla modules too (you need to use grorkmod 1 before flashing xposed zip, to have full functionality of xposed modules)..

So after 4 months, it's really a new device and now at 145€ more or less, is surely a Best Buy device!

I'll add soon new twrp and scatter together for who need to have root and all modding (i will try also to change path for twrp backup to a more clear Vienna folder)
[Android General] Alberto96:
It's still a pity that users have to wait so much time in order to get an usable ROM for the device.
[Android General] Geomatic:
I'm not quite sure if this new release 6.0 ifaster than the 5.1 versions. I daily use gReader and scrolling the articles is not as smooth as before.

BTW, does anybody know how to activate the additional button on the left? It does just nothing after installing the the new ROM yesterday.
[Android General] Alberto96:
Yes there are some micro-lags, but if you use Greenify to Hibernate some System Apps you'll recover some smoothness.

I forgot to test the key, it hasn't been implemented yet.
[Android General] gaich:
You can use Xposed Additions module for configure it.

I use it for media, for the instance.

Hey Alberto, do you plan to build CM13 for this device?
[Android General] laneyyy:
I'd also love cm13, but I remember that the fm radio didn't work on the Zenfone 2 with cm and I actually use it a fair bit.
[Android General] Alberto96:
Guys this isn't a simple device, there is also a dedicated DAC that without source code can't be used, so unless i manage to get at least the kernel source code, i highly doubt to work on a CM ROM for this device.

And i'm not talking about crappy ports, i'm talking about serious, completely source-compiled, CM ROM that works best.
[Android General] laneyyy:
Yeah I wasn't sure if someone would be able to make a rom at all because I didn't think Ulefone would be very helpful
[Android General] nxtk:
Guys maybe we should ask gotron publicly to release kernel source code for us? Like change,org petition maybe?

Alberto96 what do you think, you are definitely more experienced here.

Great challenge from 100 users no more... :) We tried to use change.org to get LG G3 and G4 unlocked with much more signs of some ten thousand and no luck.

That would be a lost battle, no one got public source code even with a petition so...just forget this idea.

Can I flash the recovery only to my Ulefone Vienna on 5.1 without root ?
[Android General] megthebest:
yes.. for recovery flashing you can use flashtool program with PC.

There are many guides to do it..

Unfortunately, Andorid 5.1 has the issue regarding that is not possible to boot directly in recovery with power and vol + at boot... so for this reason, i suggest to use latest Andorid 6 rom to have updated boot partitions and more support in the future from ulefone..
[Android General] Alberto96:
Sure, but you won't be able to use it without having to reboot manually using the classical "adb reboot recovery" command.

That's why it is better to switch to the newer Android 6.0 release that works perfectly and even better than the buggy Android 5.1 release.

With the latest release you will be able to boot into recovery mode by using the smart Volume Up + Power key combination.
[Android General] nxtk:
Can confirm that latest beta works like a charm

Hi,

I will be receiving my MXP in the new few days but have some questions that I would like to ask beforehand,

1. ROMs in the Android Development section is all based on stock firmware but with customisations added into it?

2. What does layers in ROM means?

3. Is Marshmallow stable and good battery life?

4. I only use my phone for social media, texting and browsing so I prefer better battery life, so for this should I use stock, Squid or Ultra kernel?

5. I have a brand new SanDisk 64GB MicroSD card, should I format it on my computer or on the MXP?

Thanks
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arventaria:
Stock.

Don't need to format your sd.

[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K.khiladi:
1. They aren't based on stock rom. Some are based on CM and some on AOSP(Android Open Source Project). 2 or 3 roms are stock based but they are just the deodexed rom.

2. Layers is a systemwide theming option.

3. Yup, its stable.

4. Use squid kernel. Its more stable.

5. No need to format it through pc.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lither:
Thanks for the information, ROMs like Resurrection which is based on CyanogenMod, does it use CM or stock camera libs? As I use CyanogenMod ROMs before on my other phones and the camera quality isn't as good as stock.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K.khiladi:
I haven't looked into this but i feel they use cm camera libs. I dont find a lot of difference in image quality between stock and cm though.

I have received my MXP today however when I put my SanDisk 64GB MicroSD card (FAT32 format) in the phone, it isn't detected but it works on my computer, I read online this is a fault with the MicroSD card reader and I must return for replacement?

Instead of flashing latest stock ROM, should I do the notification update on my phone and then afterwards flash RR ROM? So does that mean I have latest modem?
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K.khiladi:
Yes, if you go by the way of getting updated through OTA notification, even then you would get the latest modem file.

About SD card problem, I have no idea. Try formatting it through pc in other format and check again in phone. I personally never had any problem regarding it.
