[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saqibkhan:
Hi. i am interested in getting the same phone as well. but waiting till you, or someone else finds a solution to the Gapps Problem. the solution would be simple enough i guess, but needs a Dev to work a bit on it.

i would like to ask a few questions to you though about the phone.

1. If your phone is rooted, have you as a temporary fix tried connecting your phone as USB and downloaded apk files from the internet and installing manually ??

2. i have the Lenovo a588t flip phone and the selfie camera when the flip is open is inverted in all the apps example SnapChat/Instagram/Skype etc.. is it the same with the Gionee W909 phone as well.

3. is 4G working well on your phone ?

4. How often do you need to open the flip or everything works well from outer screen only. Picking calls etc.

5. are u able to run Dual Whatsapp and Dual apps for both the sims or only 1 app for the phone.

and anything interesting about the phone also you can state.. while i try to look for someone who can help fix this problem. thanks alot

EDIT1 :: this was the link we followed to convert our phone rom (Lenovo a588t android 4.4) to a rooted rom and also create a CWM recovery for the phone. im sure this might lead you somewhere. as its for MTK related phones. please have a look

https://www.myrl.net/article/43

EDIT2 :: try looking for a phone with a similar MTK chipset and try to install GAPPS on your phone that way. im sure that would help

EDIT3 :: Atleast you can upload ur downloaded ROM on needrom .com so others can avail benefit of it ?? lol
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jordstar:
I bought a w909, it just arrived this morning. The seller made sure I knew gapps wouldn't work on it, but I'm fairly comfortable with following online steps to flash firmware (have done it in the past with Motorola Droid versions). So I'm thinking it shouldn't be too difficult once someone figures out how to bypass the Chinese googlewall.

It was quick and easy to root with Kingo.

I'd be fine with a Cyanogen mod too! Subscribing to this thread for updates on whether anyone has managed to successfully install working gapps.

Honestly I'd be fine without the Play store, just want gmail, calendar, etc.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jordstar:
I bought it from liaow dot com and the manager of that site was the most helpful and informative person I have EVER bought from. Most reassuring online buying experience I have ever had. The price wasn't the lowest I'd see across the internet, but it was fairly close... lower than Ebay and Aliexpress at least.

1. If your phone is rooted, have you as a temporary fix tried connecting your phone as USB and downloaded apk files from the internet and installing manually ??

I tested installing the gapps apk just to confirm that it wouldn't work (it didn't). But manual install of a 3rd party appmarket .apk worked great, no issues.

2. i have the Lenovo a588t flip phone and the selfie camera when the flip is open is inverted in all the apps example SnapChat/Instagram/Skype etc.. is it the same with the Gionee W909 phone as well.

I haven't tried any of these yet but I haven't had any inversion on the inner screen.

3. is 4G working well on your phone ?

I haven't tested a SIM card in it yet. I don't plan to until I can flash the ROM to something that will allow installation of gapps.

4. How often do you need to open the flip or everything works well from outer screen only. Picking calls etc.

You could get by without opening the flip phone at all. Everything works from the touchscreen and side hardware buttons. But flipping it open is pretty awesome for the physical camera button on the keypad and for dialing.

5. are u able to run Dual Whatsapp and Dual apps for both the sims or only 1 app for the phone.

Didn't test this yet.

and anything interesting about the phone also you can state.. while i try to look for someone who can help fix this problem. thanks alot

The stock apps are not great. Lots of Chinese bloatware. Particularly the embedded browser is bad... it's got the Great Firewall built in (google 404s).

Long shot is this phone will be AMAZING once it can be flashed with gapps. Until that time, it's not great.

[MENTION=4450459]Jordstar[/MENTION]

hi .. any update on the phone usage.. what about Gapps ?? any luck on that
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jordstar:
None at all. The worst thing was, I rooted the device, then was playing around with it and tried to install the OTA firmware update. Whoops-- bricked the phone.

I have had no success even finding a Gionee representative whom I can ask for a new ROM, in English. No email address even.

I tried getting some support at Hovatek paid forum, but to no success. It's hard to get Windows to recognize the device and use the MTK drivers required to allow MTK Droid Tools or other flashing tools to work with it. The support at Hovatek was getting pretty frustrated with me, and was looking for a ROM and not finding one.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saqibkhan:
Here you go bro.. all 3 versions are here i believe .. v1.1 , v1.2 and v1.3 .. Lookup Version History for 1 and 2.

https://translate.googleusercontent...?id=55&usg=ALkJrhgcxz_nskOsTcaN72_pYQHOqLXEbg

Incase the link wont work.. go to google translate.. Translate from Chinese to English the link www.amigo.cn

and go to firmware downloads and select your mobile.. im sure you need to register somewhere (no need to register i checked).. but thats for you to do.. lol.. i did my part. im not sure if the downloads are OTA updates or full ROMS as of now.. but 1.6GB of data should be a ROM. in any case .. they have to be installed as a zip file from the SD Card.. so try doing that. Entering recovery is also mentioned in the Tutorial Link on the page. keep trying.

Edit/ you will also find the drivers etc for your model.. Try connecting your cell phone to your laptop.. it should show up some form of Desktop Software installation etc like all cell phones do.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jordstar:
This is so awesome. Thanks for your help man. I'll get this device back on track I swear. I'll post here when I have some success.

EDIT 1: saqibkhan, I owe you some thanks! The Amigo 1.3 from the link you gave me was very easy to install from sd card using stock recovery. The device is no longer bricked! The first thing I did was install third party app market Aptoide and attempt to install Google Play Services... but it force closes. Now to get to work on gapps...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saqibkhan:
your welcome brov.. and keep that link saved.. w909 is AmigoOS and all updates/roms will keep on coming there in the future.. btw all of what i read in Chinese forums while searching for you.. they mentioned something about W909 not being updated to MarshMallow :( .. that is soo very sad.. but lets see what gionee does..

1. Why dont you flash Gapps from the sd card recovery as you did the ROM try fixing permissions for it to work. Mess with those.

2. there is a Google Play app that install Gapps for you.. did you try that.. google it.

3. the same website.. has a device forum.. translate and website.. and Keep reading there.. or try posting.. im sure Chinese ppl might have had a solution for this. but needs time to research.

4. what about you manually place the Gapps files within the system folder after rooting your device ?? maybe that would work.. try it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ravul:
Hello Jordstar and Saqib, thank you for your comments. My friend has bought the device and is having the same issues as Jordstar unable to use Google services. Saqib, I believe if we are able to get twrp/custom recovery for Gionee we will be able to get Google working on it.

Also, Jordstar have you used whatsapp on the gionee phone. My friend is also having issues with whatsapp, unable to get sound notifications when someone sends a message.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jordstar:
1. I tried this and the install would hang. Fixing permissions didn't change this so I don't think it will work.

2. It's easy enough to use any third-party gapps installer to install gapps on the device. However, the gapps will force close and generate an error message several times per second until they are uninstalled... so they are blocked from the kernel layer, not just in the firmware.

3. I had a look through the translated device forum. Unfortunately came up with nothing yet. It's hard to do a proper search for the English terms specifically in the w909 thread.

4. How would I do this-- through a file browser?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saqibkhan:
[MENTION=4450459]Jordstar[/MENTION] im gonna get an amazing guy to help us out on this. im sure he would be able to. Let me speak to him.

and yes try using a file manager. ES FILE MANAGER would be a good choice.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jordstar:
Awesome. OK, I'll see if ES file manager installs on the w909. I have to unzip them and place them directly in the /sys/ folder, right?

Really excited to see if you can get that help. I'm willing to experiment now that I know I can brick/recover the device no problem.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saqibkhan:
hi [MENTION=5218647]mapleshilc[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4450459]Jordstar[/MENTION] .. have you tried this.. im sure this should work.. Try it patiently and carefully. This should work.

https://devs-lab.com/clockworkmod-for-all-mediatek-device.html
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jordstar:
AMAZING, thank you, I will try this and see if I can get it to work!

Edit: OK, I tried this and I get stuck again with MTKdroidTools.exe not recognizing the w909. When I launch the adb terminal from MTKdroidTools and type "adb devices" no devices are listed when the w909 is connected. I realized this was due to losing root once I updated it to firmware 1.3 after I bricked it (referenced earlier in the thread). I re-rooted with Kingo and this bricked the device again. I will have to downgrade the firmware and hope that version is rootable... will repost updates with an edit later.

I thought I had a problem with nova on my s7 too.

But now it's installed and since the last 2 days everything is perfect. the phone goes into deep sleep and the battery life is just fine.

in my opinion it was chrome beta what was keeping the phone from not getting into deep sleep or doze mode.

I deleted it and now i am using normal chrome browser. i also changed wifi settings on standby to only while charging.

Now the phone runs like on the first day with nova wich is way better then touchwiz launcher.

Hands Down the best touchwiz rom for GT i9300,Im currently using it and couldnt be more satisfied.

However this rom is running on android 4.4.4, and not marshmellow, However the Android Version didnt affect me at all as it was impossible to guess that this rom is 4.4.4 due to the features and its UI, that almost completely mimicks the s7 marshmellow features.

Anyways, I Fully Recommend this Rom To Anyone who owns a Galaxy s3 and prefers the original samsung UI. :)
