[Device Reviews and Information] megthebest:
News from Official FB Site:

Google released its newest OS - Android 7.0 several months ago, and many renowned smartphone brands claim they will roll out this update very soon, among them are Huawei, Moto, and Sony. However, only several models have got updated already.

As the first Vernee model branded as finely-designed smartphone, Mars has won great popularity among its users and media.

Launched in August with the retail price of $249.99, it carries Helio P10 CPU, 5.5 inch FHD display, 4GB RAM, 32GB ROM, 13.0MP rear camera, and 3000mAh battery. And it supports quick charge and sports a side-mounted fingerprint sensor.

Vernee has been clinging to its motto to keep rolling out updates for its all products, including the old ones. And it’s among the first to push out major Google OS update as well.

It is reported that Vernee will roll out Android 7.0 update on 6th December for Mars. This will make Mars the first Helio P10 smartphone to get this major update.

Anyone seen OTA?
[Device Reviews and Information] Marian89:
Nougat

It seems that they don't keep their word ... However, I'm used to it. I had an HTC A9 before, I bought it for the 15 days after nexus update promise, but they didn't keep their promise which was the phone's key selling point. (it still hasn't received it). So yeah, it happens with a much larger company.

Anyways, the Mars smokes the HTC A9 in terms of day to day performance, games etc. The screen is very good, very vibrant. The build quality is superb. The sound is....so and so. The camera.... is very low end, I expected a good medium camera quality, but it's very bad ( back and front ). The battery is quite OK actually, the GSM 4G reception quite bad, GPS mediocre, the fingeprint is average, you can't count on it. Call quality is OK. :)

Also, the screen responsiveness isn't that good. I received an ota which stated that it would improve the touch panel sensitivity, but it didn't quite do it. I would really like an update to solve this issues... It would make the phone very good and lot's of peaple would buy it.

Overall, the phone is almost worth it's money. I'm awaiting nougat with the fixes and updates, they better make promises that they can keep or else they will lose lots of current and potential customers.. like HTC.

Cheers !
[Device Reviews and Information] CareDood:
Yep, just installed.
[Device Reviews and Information] carlocristi:
Nougat

What has been improved? Internet speed and touch sensitivity/accuracy?

Thanks !
[Device Reviews and Information] CareDood:
Hard to say, have been using the beta nougat for a long time, no touch / network issues even with that one..

anyone updated to 7.0? differences between 6.0 and 7.0 ?
[Device Reviews and Information] CareDood:
Yeah, normal 7.0 features available.

Camera is fine.

-Gyro not working correctly, showing almost no values at all. Also have a feeling that magnetometer is not working as intended.

-When making shortcuts to homescreen, icons not visible, when dropping the item to desktop.

-Headphone volume not working with some pin-out headphones. (typical 3pin stereojack)

-GPS not working good.

Going to roll back to 6.0 and see how these work then.

edit: rolled back to 6.0, all problems gone.

hi,

anyone knows how I active the popup bubbles from facebook messenger on vernee mars?

thanks,

Roll back mm

hi, I've also encountered the bugs you have. and sometimes it restars by itself. please tell me, how did you roll back to 6.0? thanks
[Device Reviews and Information] CareDood:
Stock 6.0 is available on needrom. Flash it in with latest SP flashtool, should be available in the same site somewhere. Cant provide direct links, sorry.

I had reboot-problems with nougat beta, but with "final" those were gone.

Low light camera is a bit better with Nougat. Also overall feeling of ui is a bit snappier with 7.0

Still using 6.0, since it feels a lot more finalized. Lets see, what fixes next OTA will bring.

Hi...I want to ask you guys if someone would be so nice to upload a android 7 rom from the newest update. And if it would be possible a zip format, so we can simply flash it through twrp. maybe already eooted. Cause i did not receive the newest update. Thanks a lot

Marshmallow with nougat camera

Hi. I've downgraded from Nougat due to the random reboots and other problems. I think the camera was a littler better on nougat. So I've installed stock marshmallow, rooted and installed xposed framework. The phone works very good. I have a question : can someone please send me the camera APK from the Nougat software? I think the upgraded apk made the camera better. Also, do you know a camera app that is at a good quality? Thanks !

we all hope so ... :good:

[Device Reviews and Information] Marian89:
This devices really surprised me, I really got used to it, I like it. However, I rolled back to 6.0 and rooted, because android N has bugs and it random restarts (this is the biggest problem). Another very big problem with this devices is the GPS - it works bad with 6.0 and TERRIBLE with 7.0. You cannot count on it at all. I got used to the low-end camera, the rest of the phone is great, the screen could use a bit more screen sensitivity to make pinch to zoom more smooth.

Meg, do you think in the next OTA they will adress the random reboot and the terrible GPS issue??

Thanks man

We hope so.. it's really a strange bug .. .but the first Andorid 7 version is really a sort of "Beta"..

News about Mars Aesthetics:

Vernee aesthetics theory: To be unparalleled or to die! do you agree?

Therefore, the differentiation of design is actually an important factor in consumer buying behaviour.

And this is also true for smartphone purchase. For example, Samsung Galaxy S5 didn’t sell well because it resembled S3 and S4 in design.

As a result, the director was changed. And until they differentiated the design on S6, the sales goes up. The same goes to iPhone.

Many Apple followers complained that even though the hardware of iPhone 7 is upgraded, the appearance is much like its previous generation.

Now the homogenization of smartphone is more and more serious.

Take OnePlus 3 for example. Its upper half of the front looks like OPPO; the Home button looks like that of Meizu; the two antenna bands have the same design of HTC; the protruding rear camera is similar to Huawei’s; and the speaker and USB port resembles those of iPhone.

If without the logo on back, you definitely can’t guess whose product it is.

The reason for this homogenization is that consumers attaches greater importance to configuration than the looking and that most smartphone makers, to pursue the profit maximization, would not like to spend their time and money on the appearance design.

After all, not all the consumers understand the importance of design and aesthetics. As a result, it’s harder and harder to find a smartphone with classical appearance like iPhone 4’s. However, the makers shouldn’t just count on configuration and pricing to attract consumers. From both short-term and long-term view, it’s harmful for the development of this industry. One day, those consumers will experience aesthetic fatigue. And then by what means can the those makers attract the buyers again? And also if this phenomenon continue, there will be less choices for the consumers.

Good news is that there are still some makers like Vernee who are willing to attract consumers by designing great models like Mars.

The front of Mars adopts a clean and symmetric (both horizontally and vertically) design, with on physical buttons and logo. The 2.5D display has rounded sides and corners.

Due to Gel Suspension Technology and ultra thin 1mm bezel, the screen-to-body ratio reaches up to 81%.

The fingerprint sensor is located on the right side. The back cover and frame are made from 6000 series aircraft grade aluminum alloy with 18 processes.

And thanks to nano-injection molding and anodizing coloring process, the cover is firm and gorgeous.

7.6mm thickness, surface treatment with No.220 fine zircon, and rounded sides, all of them contribute to a comfortable handling experience.

Besides the marvelous industrial design, Vernee Mars is also among the first to get upgraded to Android 7.0 Nougat.

This means you can experience those all-new features like drop-down settings, split-screen mode, quick app switch.

[Device Reviews and Information] sikke1:
Agree about design. Vernee already made some great looking phones with good enough hardware specs to carry on long 2017. But all Vernee phones have unfinished software. There are major bugs on all helio phones. Camera is underperformin on all three top phones. Apollo series phones have great camera sensors but both are badly misconfigured. That is causing bad rep to Vernee. Fix this and sky is limit.

This happend on March 10, batt was at 1% touchscreen did not respond any more, so a reboot and he put it on the charger.

The phone went into the boot loop.

We can't turn off the phone, when removing the charger the phone screen goes black (off) on the charger the bootloop will start.

The phone will not charge at all,

developer options are off, so no ADB support.

I could connect whit fastboot but fastboot is also locked serial 0123456789ABCDEF, unlock not allowed.

Now i can't even reboot the phone into fastboot.

And the phone will not charge at all. when plugged in

problem with the phone speaker

Hello everybody I've bought this crappy phone from less than 24h and the phone speaker is not working at all, just the loudspeaker:eek::eek:.... I let you imagine how stressful is going to be to calling with just the loudspeaker.

I already contacted gearbest and they say i have to send it back to china even though i bought it from the eu warehouse, does it seem legit to you?

Anyway before sending it to china i went to a reapir center and they said that they couldn't open the phone because of the glue attached to screen, can anybody tell me if there is a way to fix this problem please?
[Device Reviews and Information] Jeik:
I guess you were unlucky to get a broken unit. Mine arrived today and I couldn't be happier with it(ordered it from the EU warehouse as well). They might've simply forgot to connect the top speaker to the motherboard. And those clever individuals at the repair shop could've simply heated the phone to a safe but warm enough temperature for the glue to weaken(that is how it's usually done,at least as far as I know)

If you are too worried about sending the phone for repairs or you can't find someone competent enough to fix it for you,you can try getting some cheap bluetooth earphones for calls or simple earphones with a mic.

.------.
[Device Reviews and Information] mallo88:
Thx for the reply marionette

I will obviously go another technician tomorrow, even if today i went in 2 different shops and the first one (chinese) said he "doesn't work on that ****", to the second one i've also said that the problem was probably located in the pin connections. but seriously how can i live with a bluetooth headset on the whole day? About the heat, are you sure? I couldn't find any video online for unmounting.
[Device Reviews and Information] Jeik:
The heat is my guess(although I have no clue which temperature is borderline acceptable before one risks lcd/other component damage).

Theoretically,most glues weaken when exposed to a certain temperature,and I have no other idea which could be a workaround for the glue.As far as I know,the internal components are endangered when exposed to temps above 85°C,but I fear that the lcd is far more sensitive...

People often do it with a hair dryer/heat-gun and a thermal meter tool to make sure the phone stays safely warm during disasssmbly.

I am sorry for not being able to give you a straight-forward answer,this is all I could provide. I wish you luck.
[Device Reviews and Information] mallo88:
I also aked on the facebook Vernee page about how to open up the mobile right now, i hope they will reply, but really thank you for the supprt, i'll let you know how it will end up:good::good::good:

Hi to all,

2 days ago, I've received my Vernee Mars, and - logically - I made both OTA upgrades and have my phone on 7.0 - so I have no experience whether this was also on Android 6?

After some usage, I have noticed significant bugs with she speaker/audio settings and there are:

- While on a phone call, when switching to speakerphone the other party barely can hear me (mic works but it's sensitivity does not change) .

- While recording video, the sound is very poorly recorded - probably the same issue

Anyone has same symptoms, or idea what could it be?
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] gkparker85:
Greetings,

Recently purchased a Moto G4 Plus 4GB / 64GB from Amazon and absolutely cannot get it to connect to either of my 2 PC computers or my Macbook Pro. When I plug in the USB cable and unlock the phone screen windows gives the familiar "usb device connected" chime, correctly identifies that a Moto G4 has been plugged in, and begins to automatically install drivers/software. Once the installation is complete however, the phone does not show up in My Computer. It is listed in the device manager under "other devices" as a Moto G4 but with a yellow exclamation mark. Right clicking and selecting properties shows that there is "no device driver installed" and "no compatible device drivers available."

I have tried dragging down the tray on my phone screen and switching from "Charging" to "File transfers" as well as all of the other options. Toggling between USB modes causes Windows to chime the familiar "usb device disconnected" chime but nothing happens. I have tried multiple USB cables, including the one that came with the phone. I have tried right clicking and uninstalling the device from the device manager, installing the latest USB drivers from the Motorola website, and plugging the phone back in - still no success. I have even tried this on a completely different machine running Windows 10 as well as a Macbook Pro running OSX - all with the same results. At this point I am inclined to think that there is something wrong with my phone. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Greg

Did you enable file transfer mode on your device after you connected to your computer?

Default connection mode in Marshmallow is "USB charging"

I did. When I switch from "USB charging" to "file transfer', Windows makes the familiar chime that indicates that a USB device has been disconnected but nothing else happens.

I want to Active VoLTE in my HTC 820 Dual Sim Taiwan . I bought this from online and using it in india now i want to use 4G Jio its need VoLTE for high speed internet . so someone help me how to get VoLTE on my HTC 820 ? if i update to Android 6 or install any custom rom will get VoLTE ?

[Desire 820 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iXaidyiu:
AFAIK, NONE of the 820 variants are able to get VoLTE. As if the hardware does support this feature, I don't think HTC has the time to put their engineers on this old toy again rather then their holy HTC 10.

[Desire 820 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] subhashdas:
First of all i would like to say that the full form of

"VoLTE"

is "

Voice over LTE

".

HTC Desire 820 dual sim has 4GLTE and Reliance jio sim will use this 4GLTE of the phone to provide high speed data and voice and video call over LTE network.

I am going to purchase the jio sim today and report back after its activation (may be 2 or 3 days later) whether HTC Desire 820 dual sim indian version can support the VoLTE.
[Desire 820 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prateekjindal:
HTC Desire 820 dual sim supports JIO Sim as it is having LTE and for using VOLTE you can install "Jio Join" app from Play Store that will help in making Voice Over LTE calls. :)

Htc 820g plus jio support

I've been trying to get this Jio compatibility with HTC 820g plus for quite some time now and in vain. Almost tried and have consumed every trial methods I found in google. In MTK settings, I'm unable to use the 4g options. It jus stays put at WCDMA/GSM in the preferred network option and I can't change it. And there's no network when I insert the Jio sim. Airtel 4g works though. So I know the phone's compatible but dunno what I'm doin wrong. The sim is already registered and works perfectly fine on other handsets though.
[Desire 820 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sanoj kunjumon:
4G LTE and VoLTE are different. Any 4G handsets will work with Reliance Jio SIM for data application. But reliance jio uses HD voice for voice calling. So handset need to support for Voice over LTE feature. Idea and Vodafone 4G is different, they are using the conventional system.. In case your 4G handset does not support VoLTE, then you can install Jio join app for voice calling. Some users find it difficult in this method and complaining call drops. Also data need to enabled for voice calling. Reliance Jio uses 850, 1800 and 2300 frequencies for the services

[Sony Xperia M5] crisaegrim:
If flashtool asked you about using the FSC script and you hit 'NO', then your device is totaly dead and theres no way to fix it.

If the message of the FSC script didn't pop up, it's the same as hitting 'NO', so it might be dead and only a sony repairment center can fix it.
[Sony Xperia M5] ih8redsn0w:
Flashtool 0.9.19.8 is used for flashing older Xperia devices and is NOT compatible with the M5, therefore no fsc script will have come up and your device is now hard bricked and has to be fixed by the repair centre. Unless you can figure out how to use one of the flashtools to recover hard bricked devices
