[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Clarification: "hidelist" is not a folder but a file (under /sbin/.core/img/.core) containing the apps and processes added to the MagiskHide list. The default permissions for the file is rw-rw-rw (666).

Not sure why a folder worked for the OP...

[MENTION=4782323]sghegde87[/MENTION] If you can't get MagiskHide to work and you see the above mentioned errors, use a root capable file explorer and navigate to /sbin/.core/img/.core (make sure the setting to view hidden files and folders is enabled, or you won't see the .core directories). Create an empty file named hidelist (no extension) and then give it the above mentioned permission (666). In most file explorers you can do this by long-pressing the file and go to "details" or similar. Depends on the file explorer... I always recommend FX File Explorer.
[Magisk] sghegde87:
Thanks for the quick response but..

[MENTION=4667597]Didgeridoohan[/MENTION]:- Thank you for the quick reply and detailed description. Here is what happened:- There is already a file name 'hidelist' in /sbin/.core/img/.core directory. So, I deleted it and created a new one and set the permission to 666.

I added all the apps that has to be magiskhide. I checked this hidelist file and it is updated accordingly after I tick the apps in Magisk manager.

However, after reboot, again, the apps preference is reset.. All hide settings are reset. Below is the Log file from Magisk after reboot if that helps.

Any idea what might be causing this issue?

Device:- Lenovo P2 with Stock rom_S251 - Rooted via Magisk.

[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
All I can say is that you've got some kind of loop mount issue...

What's the output when you run the mount command in a terminal emulator?
[Magisk] sghegde87:
Yes you are right.

Yep. It's a mount issue. The problem was F2FS data partition. I formatted it to EXT4 and everything is working just fine. :) Magisk works as expected only on EXT4 format type in Lenovo P2 stock ROM.

Thanks for the comment though! :)
[Magisk] jhford:
hidelist deleted

It's not working on my Nexus 7 2013 deb tablet. Rebooting deletes hidelist. Please help. Thanks
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
This workaround was for devices with f2fs issues, in late 2017. Your device don't use f2fs (normally) and much use happened with Magisk since (the hidelist file is no longer used, as an example).

100% sure you've got something else going on (unless you're on a really old Magisk release).
[Magisk] jhford:
My problem is that the Spectrum TV app will not run on a rooted device. So, I use Magisk Hide, but Safetynet fails on each reboot. So, the temporary fix is to untick Hide in Settings, reboot, retick hide, rerun Safetynet, which always passes, and Spectrum TV app also works. PITA. Do you know of a permanent solution?

Thanks
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
That just means things aren't working as intended on your device. More info is needed:

https://www.didgeridoohan.com/magisk/MagiskHideHelp
[Magisk] jhford:
My Magisk log is attached.
[Magisk] jhford:
Update. I uninstalled Magisk manager and installed the Canary version, but the problem remains. Neither Safetynet nor Magisk Hide work unless I do the following: disable Magisk Hide, reboot, and enable Magisk Hide. I'm glad it works, at least, but the rebooting is a PITA.

Review (part 2)

Benchmarks

I have used 3DMark, AndroBench, Antutu Benchmark, GeekBench 4, GFXBench, PCMark (Work 2.0, Computer Vision, Storage & Work 1.0), V1 - GPU Benchmark Pro and Vellamo to stress the device to the limit. I won’t test Games or Video Playback because there are already some related tests included in these Benchmark suites.

3DMark – Even though this Helio P23 comes with a new-gen Mali-G71 GPU, it is less powerful compared to the one found on the Helio P25. Not a bad result, but pretty average.

AndroBench – No words about this result, it is just outstanding for an eMMC 5.1.

Antutu Benchmark – I won’t say a lot about this benchmark, this isn’t as reliable as others. I’m providing this just for benchmarks lovers.

GeekBench – For some reasons, it fails to get an internet connection. To know more: http://support.primatelabs.com/discussions/geekbench/23518-not-internet-connection-detected

GFXBench – This benchmark is just too much for not high-end devices.

PCMark – Somehow this benchmark gets higher results compared to the Helio P25. As i always say, software optimizations are more important compared to raw performance, and this is the proof.

Work 2.0

Computer Vision

Storage

Work 1.0

V1 - GPU Benchmark Pro – Using the Snapdragon 820 preset, 3D performance seem to be a bit low for really heavy games. Consider to reduce graphics quality for a smoother experience.

Vellamo – Overall good results considering the CPU, somewhere in between the MT6750T and the Helio P25.

Conclusions

Being the first devices ever released by OUKITEL with such high specs, together with the MIX 2, i am not so surprised to see that some areas are not as good as they should have been. They always focused on battery life more than performance, and this new strategy can only help them to get better and better, device after device.

This is an overall good device, i like the thin bezels and also the new Helio P23 that seems to be way more power efficient compared to previous alternatives provided by Mediatek. Still, the lack of an headphone jack on such a thick device is really non-sense.

I recommend it to those looking for a battery phone that features almost everything, with no great requirements for gaming.

Pros:

Android 7.1 instead of the usual 7.0

NFC Support

Notification LED

Gyroscope & Magnetometer/Compass

Excellent Battery Life

Cons:

No 3.5mm Headphone Jack (adapter-only)

Not released with Android 8 Oreo

Noticeable smearing effect while scrolling menus/pages

Really heavy considering the plastic back cover

Requires longer than standard USB plugs

[Oukitel (All phone models)] rolandvb:
WoW !!Thanks for the outstandig and extensive revieuw, it have the impression the new P 23 cpu is slower as a p25 cpu??

My vernee mix 2 with 4 gig ram gave me a antutu score far over 64000 . The vernee was a very good phone but the volume and sound was not acceptable for me, way to soft and distorting at full

volume, it gave half the volume of my umidigi super that is why i sold it,as there is mentioned the sound of this k6 is not so good i will hope for the best.

im my opinion the volume or quality of sound has nothing to do with a chamber, my umidigi super does not have a chamber either and was twice as loud as my vernee mix 2, it think if using a decent quaulity speaker

it should be no issue at all , the K6 is a big phone, big enough to give a decent sound, and remenber it is not a beselless phone at all and there is room enough for a decent speaker especially if there is no 3.5 jack.

I will test the k6 tomorrow or next week when i will recieve it and will tell you my experiance, hope that the sound and volume of the K6 will be acceptable enough for me and a lot better as the Vernee mix 2 and meet at least my minimal standards

one little remark on the revieuw, a sound chamber has nothing to with the quality in sound of Earpieces, the sound does not come from the phone trough earpieces, bad earspeaces will also distort so maybe

the sound will be ok with really good earpieces, the` re is a lot of difference in quality in earpeaces and real good ones are expensive.

i will simply use bluetooth, with my bluetooth earpeaces this shoud give a good undistorted sound as bluetooth is encoded en decoded inside the bluetooth earpiece.
[Oukitel (All phone models)] Xraven771:
What date did you order the phone and what websight , still waiting for mine in the UK
[Oukitel (All phone models)] uncleabubear:
Banggood and I ordered it on 4th Jan 2018
[Oukitel (All phone models)] rolandvb:
My phone is delivered today and dit order it 31 -12-2017

first impression, phone looks better as expected and sound is significantly better as my vernee mix 2 and loud enough.

hope twrp and root will be available soon for this phone and we will also get the flashable factory rom
[Oukitel (All phone models)] avro.bd:
is it worth to buy?

Battery gives proper backup? 6300mAH?

and is cam performance reflects its specs?
[Oukitel (All phone models)] rolandvb:
For the money it is certainly a good phone i did test it and everything is working fine and the camera is not dissapointing and a lot better as the vernee mix 2 i had with semi on sensor

I see no smearing on screen as told in the revieuw and the screen is outstanding

sound volume is ok and can be boosted with MTK tools , i did set speaker at 150 with mtk engeneerstool and is loud enoug almost

twice as loud as the vernee mix 2 i had so ok for me

i did Antutu score and had over 59000 ,so not bad at all but could be better ,i am certain now the new P 23 processor will have less batteryconsuption but is defenatly not faster as a p 25 CPU

but a little slower but not mutch.

i decided to keep this phone ,for the money when looking at the whole package and specs it is the best phone for $ 199 i ever had.

Not much phones at this prize have full NFC function support, for Europe NFC is a must these day`s

i is not a gamers phone ,but for normal use and some normal games it is certainly fast enough for the normal user

when optimized or with a good custom rom it will be even better and think faster. lets hope there will be TWRP soon for this phone and the`re will come a update to Oreo.
[Oukitel (All phone models)] beginner73:
Thanks for a great review! Is Oukitel continuing with their longer than standard USB tip on the cables or can you use any kind of USB C cable?
[Oukitel (All phone models)] rolandvb:
They`re are simply different sorts of usb cables for sale and available

Yes the usb C cable Oukitel is using is a somewhat longer type C connector but these cables are normally for sale at stores . other brands are also using these same longer connectors

I think the somewhat longer connectors are OK and have the impression these connectors are stronger.

I did order a new flexible braided usb cable a few months ago for my Umi super and they did send me the longer type and does fit all usb C phones and also fits the oukitel K6

The brand of the flexible braided usb C cable i did order is Bastec and has real aluminium connectors, i am using it now for my K6,is much better as the standard cable.
[Oukitel (All phone models)] mma7575:
I'm receive in Jordan yesterday but after update my k6 repeat sudden shutdown
[Oukitel (All phone models)] clouseau_fr:
I also have two cables from Bastec, 0.5m and 1.5m. The first one plugs correctly in the K6 but the other does not. I tried other cables and most of them do not plug correctly in K6 but they all fit in my Zuk Z2 pro. It's really annoying i think.
[Oukitel (All phone models)] Alberto96:
It is, I forgot to mention this issue in my review. My apologies.

UPDATE: added to the cons list.
[Oukitel (All phone models)] uncleabubear:
Android Pay does not work on Oukitel K6.

I am very disappointed to confirm that android pay does not work.

The Oukitel K6 Fails the CTS check. The phone is not licensed by Google.

I bought the phone as android pay was advertised as working.

I have emailed oukitel support on info@oukitel.com asking for a fix.

I have not received a reply yet. I also posted on twitter, youtube and facebook about this so I hope I will get a response.

Official Oukitel video promising android pay is here.

Regards Andrew.
[Oukitel (All phone models)] carl.kenyon2:
Have you noticed it's called Google pay not android pay in the settings looks like its an afterthought but I also purchased it thinking it would work so I hope it gets fixed too
[Oukitel (All phone models)] uncleabubear:
I don't care about that, it's called android pay in the oukitel video as you can see in my screenshot!

---------- Post added at 11:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:04 PM ----------

Oukitel have posted on a famous russian forum that they are sorting out the problem with android pay in the near future, 'Good afternoon the company waited for feedback from the owners about contactless payments, since this is the first device of the brand with NFC, we are glad that QIWI and a number of others have launched without problems, with Android Pay we will try to sort out in the near future, if not difficultly ask owners to report on the work of those or other services of contactless boards.' (Source; 4pda.ru)
[Oukitel (All phone models)] rolandvb:
i don`t care of the future i bought a new phone especially for the full NFC funtion and was the only reason of purchase and need it now !!:mad: i bought this phone especially to be able to pay with NFC, as the phone is not google certified it will never pass the CTS certification control for my banking app from ABN Amro in the Netherlands, it will never work untill this phone will get Google certification and i can tell you that will never happen,

my banking app does not exept and does not work if it does not pass the CTS control !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As this is the case i did ask a refund at banggood, CTS is not valid so in fact they sold me a phone onder false pretences so a con transaction, as i payed with paypal and this phone does not meet the specs and NFC is not working it is simply a scam so by that a fraudulous transaction, and when sending it back Banggood for that reason will have to pay for the return costs when sending it back, but this procedure will take months before getting my money back and , to much hassle and will take to long.

So i did mail Banggood that do not prefer not to open a dispute at paypal but that i would like to receive a significant refund for my loss , if i have to sell this phone it will be second hand one and used and also have to mention NFC is not working because i am a honest person. selling a second hand phone with a defect(because it is because NFC is not working as advertized) i will defenatly lose money on it,so i will have to have a significant refund or will have to return it, i don`t accept to be conned again by a Chinese company, it is the third time i have been conned with false sepcs and have enough of it now !!

If they will not comply for a refund i will unfortunatly have to open a dispute so Paypal will also grant me the return costs. and they will under these conditions . so i think they will grant me a refund otherwise it will cost them money annyway and a dispute is very negative for they`re buisiness.

If i can not sell it for a resonable prize i will simply keep the phone and use it as remote for my music streamer, it is ideal for that because of the big battery inside.

The fact is is did spend $199 for nothing becase the only reason i bought this phone is to be able to make wireless payment transactions, and because it does not work for me a waste of money :(

if you`re phone is in a bootloop, hold the on button a long time untill it shuts down, if it does not you will have to whait and drain the battery first

install all drivers for this phone on you`re computer and download the latest MTK flashtool and you will have to flash the factory rom to you`re phone.

This factory rom is available and can be downloaded and a link is on this forum since yesterday:)

hope you will manage to restore you`re phone and i don`t expect to be a problem now the factory rom is available.

good luck.!!

if you have any questions just ask ,

NFC payments

I have just received the device in Greece and I can confirm that NFC for payments through Alpha bank's "tap & pay" app, is working perfectly.
