[Device Reviews and Information] TheDrive:
I just want to start thread to collect infos and any useful resources around the world about Konka L431 phones,

Which sold as Panasonic T45 4G in India (other countries?), MTS Smart Sprint 4G in Russia and any HW clones.

If this thread is not in the place, please move to the correct location.

Konka L431 was developed by Konka Telecommunications

http://www.konkamobile.com/en (No any references for L431 there :( )

Phone was first time presented on the MWC 2015 Show on March 2015

http://www.gsmchoice.com/en/news/3952/MWC-2015:-Unimaginative-Konka.html

Device seems to be developed primarily for OEM market and seems not to be sold under the original name.

Nor any support and files are provided from Konka for end users.

Nor any source code available at the moment as required by the Linux/Android GNU/GPL licenses.

Original Konka L431 photos made on the MWC 2015 show.

Phone was build on MTK MT6735M SoC platform.

Equipped with:

4 x ARM Cortex-A53 Cores at 1.0GHz,

Mali-T720MP2 GPU

1GB LPDDR3 RAM

8GB eMMC (NAND) Flash Storage

Up to 32GB SD Card Slot

LTE Cat.4 Modem (150/50 MBps) with 2 Concurrent SIM slots.

802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, A-GPS, FM-Radio

4.5" 480x854 TFT/TN LCD with Capacitive Touchscreen

5MP AF Rear camera with Flash LED and 0.3MP Front camera with the only Digital Zoom

Ambient light and Proximity sensors

MicroUSB charging/connectivity/OTG connector and Analogue Audio 3.5mm Jack In.

1800MAh KLB180N345 Li-Polymer battery

Sold with Android 5.1 Lollipop OS Firmware

Dimensions (mm): 130.6 x 65.3 x 9.5

There are two clones (OEM rebadged versions) of the device spread around the markets.

1st one is Panasonic T45 4G sold primarily in India, may be other countries (Bangladesh, Iran, others?)

It seems to have the original L431 HW and custom FW for the Indian market and LTE bands:

Worldwide GSM, UMTS 2100/900MHz, LTE-TDD 2300MHz (Band 40) and LTE-FDD 1800MHz (Band 3).

2nd on is MTS Smart Sprint 4G sold primarily in Russia (may be CIS).

It has the original L431 HW and custom FW for the Russian MTS network and the part of Russian LTE bands:

Worldwide GSM, UMTS 2100/900MHz and LTE-FDD 800/1800/2600MHz (Band 3/7/20).

Phone comes exclusively with the SIM-Lock which could be easily removed free of charge with

the unique protected storage file patch (look in the 4pda.ru topic for the details).

Sure FW's could be ported to any side with exclusion of the modem FW (or w/Modem FW patching)

This phone is similar to the Lenovo A2010 look for the ported FW on the 4PDA forums
