No, not tried that.

I have downloaded the latest ROM from http://ulefone.com/download/u007.html

Its a .rar file and confusing.

Don't want to loose data.

just dont flash the userdata and the preloader. the only thing you can loose is the root access and the twrp but you can reflash the twrp at any time and root again after using http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu-stable

Is there a way to root this phone using only SPFlash Tool? I cannot connect the phone to windows 8.1 using ADB, it connects and disconnects constantly, the only thing that seems to work ok is SP Flash Tools, but if I try to connect through ADB to push anything it does not work.

OK flash the Boot.patched.IMG ,download the superuser apk and the su.img with your phone. download terminal Emulator from playstore. Open terminal Emulator and locate the downloaded files ,they should be in /sdcard/Download copy the files to /data/local/tmp using cp command. (cp /sdcard/Downloads/su.img /data/local/tmp/) reboot twice. And you should be rooted

Thanks for the advice, I'm getting "Permission Denied" from Terminal Emulator for Android when trying to "cp /sdcard/su.img /data/local/tmp/" I'll try a few other combinations see if I can fix this.

Update; flashed Boot.patched.IMG and now the phone is in a boot loop.

How To Root & TWRP (Step by Step Easy Beginner Method)

How To Root & TWRP Recovery Ulefone U007

(Step by Step Easy Beginner Method)

Download SP Flash Tools from here SP_Flash_Tool_Win_v5.1628.rar

Download TWRP Recovery for U007 here TWRP.zip

Download SuperSU for U007 from here UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.65-20151226141550.zip and copy this file onto your U007 phone or SD card (do not unzip the file).

Open SP Flash Tool, under the "Scatter-loading File" open the "MT6580_Android_scatter.txt" found in the TWRP.zip folder.

In SP Flash Tool select "Download Only" and make sure that only the "recovery" field is selected and that you have selected "recovery.img" from the TWRP.zip folder.

In SP Flash Tool now click on the green "Download" button. Power down your U007 phone and connect it to your computer via a USB cable, SP Flash Tool will do the rest and flash TWRP recovery onto your phone. When you get a green confirmation message from SP Flash Tool disconnect your phone from the USB cable.

Press and hold volume UP and switch on your U007 phone. When prompted select recovery, you will then see TWRP, in the menu select "Install" and navigate to the SuperSU"]UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.65-20151226141550.zip file. Let the installation automatically root the phone.

Reboot your phone and enjoy your newly rooted Ulefone U007 with TWRP recovery.

If you have problems with missing IMEI number because SP Flash Tool deleted it from your phone, download "Chamelephon" from Google Play Store for free and copy your unique IMEI numbers which should be located on the back of your U007's battery and enter this into the fields in Chamelephon, click apply and reboot phone.

The above method was successfully tested and worked, when all other rooting methods failed on me as I could not push using ADB. At the time this worked with Ulefone U007 Z1_GQ3029DH_U007_Z13_20160526 and Windows 8.1.

Love this phone, bargain
[Device Reviews and Information] CartridgeJ:
I feel no one has given their 2 cents about this phone. Yeah there's videos on youtube about it but I feel they're cheap and lazy reviews. I'd like a straightforward honest detailed answer and a benchmark that shows it's performance between a number of devices. And for fun a try with GT Motor Academy (aka GT Motor Academy 1) on high settings. It's my favourite game.

I've just bought the phone but considering it's going to take 30+ days till it gets here, I'd love to hear a review from one of you

that owns it.
[Device Reviews and Information] russy23:
The only game i can see is gt racing 2 which is the follow up i believe, surprisingly it runs well, i say surprisingly as its got a low end cpu/gpu..

Anyway i never play games on my phone, never have, i wait to go on the tablet..

I honestly cant list any cons with this phone especially at the price, and having 6.0 is really nice..its smooth, snappy enough, no lag ive experienced. Battery life is very good, 4 - 5 hours sot.. youtube sometimes takes a few seconds to settle down, but i think thats due to it choosing the correct resolution..
[Device Reviews and Information] CartridgeJ:
Thanks for being a sport. The game GT Motor Academy 1 needs to be installed by downloading the apk and having

the right version of it aswell. I had to do that with older devices. I can't wait to see what all the fuss is about.

That's why I wanted/needed a review. My Galaxy Ace 2X is beginning to get old and slow. Apps get updated and ask

for more power while my old Galaxy stays old. Ulefone U007 was looking to be too good to be true but I think you

confirmed that it is good. Thanks!

Hello People.

I have a Galaxy Note 10.1 GT-N8020. that is bricked somehow, i have rooted it and was running on a french rom apparently, there is a Orange Icon (logo) on startup and some french apps .

it have run smooth the last year. suddenly a week ago. it wont start any more. hangs on the Orange logo. it cannot go into recovery mode only download mode i have tried using samsung kies whitout luck. the wierd thing is that kies tells me that i am using a Swedish rom MI3 (TLA). then i have tried using Odin (many different version to) and nothing works, same error all the time. (nand start write error) i have tried philstouchrecovery, flash with stock rom. pit files everything fails etc.

then yesterday in desperation i tried some other option, in Odin There is a check box

Called T Flash.

When i check this box. i don't get a error and i could flash it with a stock rom. the tablet responds and you can see the progress bar moving etc and i get a reboot and a pass in Odin. but i dont seems like anything have been flashed. still stuck on the Orange Logo.

Can anyone Help Me, unbrick my Tablet, and also Explain What The T Flash Does ??

Hi everyone,

a ROM that I've downloaded has potato clock as its default, and i hate it. i have already commented on that in the ROM thread but there has been no response.

so i ask you all, is there way to remove this clock and use the default clock ?

as you can see, potato clock doesnt work well with touchwiz. if there are other ways to fix this issue, please let me know :)

Hi,

Firstly ,my main device Note5 is not rooted etc .Also i don't know your Rom features and tweaks .

Secondly, i have my old Note 3 running a port of Note 5. It has patato

Clock in Rom . However in my custom Rom settings you could change patato clock , colours,position.etc

Take a look at my screenshots . Don't you have such Tweak's in your rom settings ? good luck.

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goobeyond:
Hello,

yes those settings are present.

but my problem is that when you go to certain applications, like messages or email, the notification bar turns white and the icons turn black by default

but potato clock remains white all the time. i wish to fix that by removing potato clock all together.

if there are other ways that would be ok too, as long as the clock changes color.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willcor:
Hi,

The only person who can give you positive answer is the dev /or other users of your custom ROM.

Have you searched the relevant Custom Rom thread (Could be reason why you did not get any replies originally , on this question, as other users know that question has been answered ,many times before ?Thus ignoring your question ? )

I can say that i have options in my cutom Rom re patato clock ,to change my color,position in notification bar , switch

stock clock back etc.

Look at my other 2 x screenshots.

Surely the dev of your Rom should have similar settings in his Rom ?

good luck

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mathdarkmoon:
can you more be specific?

What ROM are you using and what note5 variant you have? Maybe I could help.

I found out the ROM you are using. Here's the fix:

First, reboot to recovery and flash your IOIO_v7.1 ROM then debloat/uninstall potato clock.

Second, Flash the attached zip

What's in the fix:

Remove potato clock configuration

Remove sim icon in statusbar (more neat display)

Remove gray color status bar (when battery saver enabled)

Hope it helps.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knirirr:
Yesterday I used my Nexus 6P to navigate to visit a relative in hospital, and shortly after arrival it shut down due to overheating. After cooling it down and plugging in it eventually restarted, but attempts to navigate again caused it to heat up dramatically once more. This not behaviour I've experienced before and I've had this phone for a few months, often using it for navigation.

The Wakelock Detector app seems to blame com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox (5.14.32.21.arm64). I'm running Cyanogenmod and so can use Privacy Guard to deny "keep awake" permission; this seems to have a small effect but has not completely eliminated the problem, and time awake has dropped from roughly 60% down to about 20%.

I can't do the same for Google Play Services as the option says "disabled by battery optimisation".

Any suggestions for further steps would be welcome. I'm very reluctant to use Xposed but are there any modules for that which might be able to bring this under control?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DJBhardwaj:
I never had any drain related to Google framework/services. Anyways, why are you using CyanogenMod? Any specific reasons for the choice?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knirirr:
There are a couple of reasons for that particular choice:

1. I've used it on and off for a long time and I've seen other ROMs come and go (I used to like AOKP) and like to stick with the familiar.

2. I like the features: Root, Privacy Guard, call whitelisting, live display, themes, configurable buttons &c. &c.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DJBhardwaj:
I personally stopped using CM a long time ago with my Nexus 4. Feels like they don't care about the stability anymore. But then, that's my opinion. The experience could make a huge difference between mine and your usage.

As far as features are concerned, DirtyUnicorns is an extremely cool ROM (initially based off AOKP too) and pair it with a decent custom kernel to have the best of everything.

Now, for your issue, I would recommend you look into it through BetterBatteryStats, since it is more reliable and concise.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knirirr:
I have noticed some loss of stability (the Nexus 6 I had before was dreadful) but the 6P has been OK.

One other matter is that I am starting to feel increasingly pushed for time when it comes to fiddling with phones, and the usual CM install is quick and easy.

I'd forgotten that I'd paid for that some time ago. With luck it might give some clues before the weekend; another trip is looming.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DJBhardwaj:
On a Nexus, any ROM installation is quite easy, and pretty much the same for most custom ROMs, be it CM, DU, PureNexus, Chroma, etc.

EDIT: Good luck tracking the issue. Hope you find the culprit.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knirirr:
Indeed, but the time taken to get it running in a way with which I'm comfortable is too much of a nuisance. With CM I simply backup and dirty flash, and even reconfiguring from a factory reset to my preferred configuration is a familiar enough procedure to do fairly quickly.

In fact, I'm getting rather worried that I am starting to have too little time or patience for this sort of thing. It's lucky that iPhones are overpriced and unpleasant to use, or I might be tempted. ;)

Thanks!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knirirr:
BetterBatteryStats claims that the cause of the problem is a bluetooth kernel wakelock. Turning bluetooth off has resulted in the phone running noticeably cooler and and the battery drain slower.

Unfortunately for me I would like to use my Moto 360 when I'm not at home (it's now on the home wifi), so I'm not sure how best to proceed. It's also not clear how this problem arose.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knirirr:
Further investigation:

The bluetooth logs show a lot of data from com.google.android.wearable.app with some from com.google.android.quicksearchbox (presumably Google Now). Freezing the Android Wear app with Titanium Backup doesn't completely remove the bluetooth wakelocks but reduces them dramatically, e.g. 50% down to 10%. So, it would appear to be Android Wear via Bluetooth which is causing this issue.

That leaves only the questions (1) why did this suddenly start now and, more importantly, (2) how do I stop it? Does this mean it's finally time to switch off Google Now and get a Pebble?
