1. Kaspersky found only one AdWare, DrWeb and other foun nothng.

2. Seems to me it is really 3500-4000, because I have 30% battery after one day, Its good for 6'

3. Only for charging status and new messages.

But, I have serious issue with GPS, I have very weak GPS signal level. In comparison with Samsung S4 (10-12 satellites with 20-30 lvl) W9 have only 3-4 satellites with 15-20 lvl. Therefore I can’t use navigations programs, I got always “GPS Searching”. I have disassembled phone, and seems to me GPS antenna is a piece of siht.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlexDem:
I have tried KingRoot, with no success.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nick-xda:
I am pretty sure the phone wasnt rooted when I received it, several apps told me it wasnt, and I tried deleting some apps through the menu, and couldnt (but I never tried using a terminal). Of course, that doesnt mean the phone wasn't rooted at some point during the supply chain after it left the factory.

I tried a factory reset and these apk's remained installed and the AV programs still detected them.

To be honest, after "AlexDem"'s report of not having the malware, I am half-tempted to try ordering another one from somewhere else. I liked the phone otherwise. However the GPS issues are concerning - i dont remember testing the GPS. However my discussions with the Kenxinda sales rep were not all that encouraging, he seemed to admit the malware was there, but dismissed it as being a minor problem. But maybe that was just his limited english wording it wrong, he may not have meant that their actually is factory installed malware.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UnableToResetOldProfile:
Somebody opened up the OEM rom, installed the apk, flashed it to the phone. This is why it was persistent when resetting to factory.

This may be why you had the problem with removing it.

This or the W8 will be my next purchase.

I just had delivery of the vPhone X3, it came with 2 bad IMEI's. They are 356666666666666\8 ... This is invalid as an IMEI here in Canada.

Also, at http://www.protectyourdata.ca/en/check-the-status-of-your-device-in-canada/ they both come up as "Your Device has been Reported As Lost Or Stolen'. Consequently the phone cannot be operated here in Canada by any of the networks.

These generic IMEI's supplied are generally used when a good IMEI is removed for a stolen phone and the generic one is installed as the swap-out replacement.

It has a 3200mAh battery, not the 4500mAh as advertised.

It uses 10mm mUSB rather than the regular 6mm.

It uses 19mm earphone plugs not the regular 14mm.

None of my headphones or USB cables will work with the phone.

Did you have any of the the USB or earphone issues with the W9?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nick-xda:
Im pretty sure it was standard USB, however, the rubber casing did prevent one of my usb cables from plugging into it. Another of mine fitted fine.

Never tried the headphone jack. I sent the phone back.

I contacted another shop, China Vision, with the intention of maybe purchasing one, and they very nicely told me the following, after a few emails back and forward: "They are from the same supplier and I think it may have this malware issue" - This, combined with what the Kenxinda sales rep said, I wouldnt touch the phone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UnableToResetOldProfile:
1 Answer, 1 Question ....

GPS antenna's can be made from fine wires that are twisted and glued into place.

http://nikospavlakisphotography.blogspot.ca/2016/01/thl-5000-and-gps.html

An antenna mod may also be a copper sticky larger than the original that would accomplish the same thing as the wire mod.

This isn't really isn't a difficult mod as it appears you have lots of room to work with.

There is also a software fix, you need to dump the GPS cache and reload the GPS data, specifically for your location, then it should work better.

I would try the software fix 1st before the hardware mod.

Please answer me this, what length is the headphone plug, the standard 15mm or the longer 19mm?

I've been doing malware and virus removal for over 10 years with Windows and Android (Linux) now.

Of the 2 systems, android is the easiest to clean and repair as its a socially engineered application. Rarely is it factory installed and even so if it is, once rooted you can, once again, easily delete the offending app.

If the offending app is installed with the recovery, you must flash a cleaned ROM to the phone so wen you do a Factory Reset, the offending app doesn't show up again.

Easy Peasy ....
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nick-xda:
Easy except I have no way of obtaining a clean rom. Kenxinda wouldnt give me one.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UnableToResetOldProfile:
OK, so you have to do this from scratch.

Once discovering the location of the of the offending app ( generally: system>app or system>priv-app) you make note of it.

You would have to do a back up of the ROM with the NVRAM, open up the ROM, remove the offending app, zip it up then flash it over the sh##ty ROM.

A little bit longer but not more complicated, just 2 more steps to learn.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlexDem:
15 mm, see photo, but I use Samsung headphone, because sound is better.

BTW, You should use Headphone with jack diameter less than 6 mm, because jack must fit with hole in smartphone. You can't use headphones with L-type jack.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlexDem:
Guys, I have firmware from Ginzzu RS97D, this is another name of Kenxinda W9 on Russian market. Ginzzu support told, than there is new firmware.

Maybe this is new android (6.0 - who knows?) with no malware and GPS fix, I really don't know. I can't update it right now, and next week too. If you have curiosity, try to do it at you own risk.

https://yadi.sk/d/JI-0oR5Cxy7Ck

(push Download/Скачать in right upper corner)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UnableToResetOldProfile:
Just a rebranding of the same garbage?

This way Kenxinda can distance themselves from the malware issue and claim that the rebrander did this.

Spend a bit more and get a Xperia or Samsung, even a Cat C60. Then you wont have to cry later on. Also, buy from a proper inhouse reseller, not eBay or AliExpress that

hosts

resellers.

If you cant find the ROM at ReedRom or the manufacturer wont provide it, then don't buy it, as there is no way to reflash the stock ROM should you need it.

Not releasing/providing your ROM is highly suspicious.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nick-xda:
They seem to be going under a few names, there is an identical (I think) product called the MFox A10 Pro, which is quite a bit dearer. https://www.chinavasion.com/china/w...es/MFOX-A10-Pro-Military-Standard-Smartphone/
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UnableToResetOldProfile:
I wont buy a phone that the ROM is not available. Under the Linux Open Source Licensing and the Google Licensing Agreements, you have to publish the ROM.

Any company that doesn't do this is hiding something from the pubic, such as pirated or unlicensed software included or, in this case, malware in the ROM.

RUN! ... DON"T WALK, in the other direction..........

Kenxinda is, possibly, a rebranded factory 2nd?!

Kenxinda is, possibly, a rebranded factory 2nd, this is the distinct feeling I get after viewing the GiNZZU site.

GiNZZU has over 20 service outlets in the Russian Federation, Kenxinda has 1 place to get help ... https://www.facebook.com/Kenxinda.Malaysia/?! ... You would be better off to buy a GiNZZU.

http://www.ginzzu.com/

4PDA Forum: http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?act=search&source=all&result=posts&sort=rel&subforums=1&query=ginzzu&st=0

***EDIT***

Kenxinda Malaysia refused to release the ROM, they insisted I send it in for repair to a service center.

***EDIT***

Kenxinda Malaysia has promised to send me a link when they receive it from the manufacturer.........Hmmmmm, 4 days ago.

***EDIT***

Kenxinda does not manufacture the phone, they had to request the ROM and wait for it from the manufacturer. Then they sent me a link for it, the link was only valid to December 5th, the W8's ROM is posted at NeedRom with the W9 ROM from GiNZZU.

I suspect this is a rebranding of the GiNZZU line of phones from the Russian Federation. This GiNZZU line has a really well developed service outlet chain, over 20 locations. Kenxinda on the other hand ... ? ... I haven't found one to date! Kenxinda kept repeating themselves...'Send it back to the supplier for service', which is impossible because I'm in Canada and most resellers are in China, do the shipping math, its cheaper to buy a new phone. Regardless, Kenxinda doesn't have service centers, they have resellers.

E&L W9

Hey I realize this is an old thread and an old phone but I bought one of these really cheap on Amazon and was able to root it. Using the instructions from Hovatek for rooting MTK phones (in this case MT6753). First I backed up the ROM with Wwr_MTK & SP Flash Tool. Then unlocked the bootloader with fastboot and then patched the boot.img with Magisk to root it. Then I was able to remove a lot of the bloatware (a lot) that is on it and it runs okay. The one I bought goes by the name E&L W9. It's good enough for what I use it for. I should add that it is a Nougat Rom now. I'll see about putting a newer rom on it.

Do we have the ability to unlock the mobile hotspot?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] stljim2005:

No, bootloader is still unlocked until further notice.

Yes there are a few ways to achieve native hotspot with modifying the apn's in the network settings.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] lvpre:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] KaptainRandom:
Unrooted...

Reboot hotspot method still works.

Basically,

reboot phone,

As soon as possible access pulldown, settings, hotspot ON.

Sometimes is too quick and need hotspot off/on again.

sometimes need complete reboot again.

this method gives hotspot 'as long as session active'.

If hotspot is turned off or 'kicked off' network, a reboot is required.

Other longstanding threads on this topic.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] OneLostHero:
I have 1 gig free with my plan of hotspot use so that method doesnt really matter. I need to edit the apn settings.

So I've managed to soft-brick my device (see here - http://xdaforums.com/sprint-galaxy-s6/help/soft-bricked-samsung-galaxy-s6-help-t3465144), and all I really care about is the data that's on it. Would it be possible to physically remove the internal storage and use it elsewhere to recover the data? What about physically replacing the OS (if this isn't a thing I apologize, I don't know all of the components of a phone and how they work)? Obviously taking the phone apart is not a problem for me, I just want to be able to access what's on it in some way, shape, or form. Even recommending a service that could remove it for me would be much appreciated. I'm also on a STEM university campus with access to lots of technology and technologically savvy people, I just don't know what I would need to request and from whom to be able to make my internal storage usable again.

That's because most of the services and features are not working yet, as mentioned in the initial post...

It'll be a while before its a fully functional, and can be used as a daily driver... It is more a proof of concept now. So unless you know what you're doing... It's best to stick with a mature rom, LP or MM until more work is carried out on this one...

now I have installed cm14.1 a few minutes ago, thanks to SerenityS.

if any one want to test this ROM, do not forget this is not a final product, So I am sharing my experience with the ROM to inform developers.

I have trouble with adding google account again.

"Google play services keeps stopping" error is displayed when I want to add a google account, so there is no playstore, no contact restore from my google account etc.

Bluetooth is not working.

Reboot option is disappeared from power menu.

Edit button in quick settings menu is also disappeared.

Camera is not recording in video mode.

Next, I installed open gapps 7.1.

A new launcher named pixel launcher is appeared.

There is no any button for app drawer in home screen, swipe up is used to reach app drawer.

I could not decide yet if it is a good feature or not.

And google app is displayed when you swipe from left in home screen.

It can be enabled/disabled in home screen settings.

That's why I also mentioned it in first test reporter that advanced reboot options wouldn't work. But in fact, the reboot option within button's power menu already doesn't do here.

[MENTION=2314916]darkRd[/MENTION]

For FM radio you'd need 3rd party app e.g. SpiritF.apk [MENTION=1970512]balloni55[/MENTION]

System partition is always mounted read only when the system is running, so you either need to remount it r/w or try your modifications while in recovery's terminal or filemanager.

If you are inexperienced as you say, you might use file managers like total commander which offers you to remount system out of the box.
