MT6763 supports lte band 5 and band 40 , band 41, but firware doesn't allow it why?? False info given on official site that it suppports volte, it doesnt my previous leeco le 2 used to support volte for my sim, this one wont, it only supports data.....and most of the time switches off automatically in idle mode(when not using) every time i have to start again, but if screen is on it wont get switch off automatically, really this is weird phone...any solution??
[Oukitel (All phone models)] Alberto96:
The chipset doesn't matter, the manufacturer provides a list of the supported bands, picture attached below. You must have checked it before.

As regards VoLTE, even though it supports it, it doesn't necessarily mean that your carrier accepts it on its network.
[Oukitel (All phone models)] nanduking2:
Ok but what may be the cause for auto switch off....if v get custom rom will v get other band support??
[Oukitel (All phone models)] brightlee63:
Thank you very much for your interest,

On my OIKITEL K6,

after inserting SIM card in slot 1,

I did it like this.

1.setting

2. more

3.mobile network

4.APNs

5. + (new APN)

6.editing : Name

7.editing : APN

8.editing : MMSC

9.editing : MMS port

10.editing : MCC

11.editing : MNC

12. tap 3 dots at top right

13. tap SAVE

and there's only one list of EMERGENCY CALL, and no list what I just saved.

So, I changed another SIM card which is working on another android smart phone, and it happens same situation.

And when the SIM card is moved into other (originally used) phone, it works well.

Two SIMs are same.

My SIM card also works well at my former android phone at now.

Please give me some more TIPs...

Thank you.
[Oukitel (All phone models)] Alberto96:
It sounds like a software bug unfortunately, please report it to OUKITEL.
[Oukitel (All phone models)] brightlee63:
Already I sent messages several times about this problem to 'CONTACT US' and 'COMMUNITY' of homepage.

But no answers from OUKITEL.

I'm just waiting to release of new version of SW.

---------- Post added at 02:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:31 PM ----------

One more thing,

Voice communication works well,

and WIFI also works very well.

Just mobile data communication is not working.

Can i fash modem.img of other brand mt6763 phone which supports most of LTE bands, like of oppo f5, will it give me additional band and volte??

Between I am on latest V22 firmware version....For me no data problems... Apn gets detected automatically..... Only bug is volte not working...

above procedure,

eliminating '10.editing : MCC' and '11.editing : MNC'

and instead of '13.tap SAVE'

tap 'HOME' (center circle on bottom)

then, the contents what I editted is remained.

But with 10 and 11,

and instead of '13.tap SAVE'

tap 'HOME' (center circle on bottom)

then, the contents what I editted is not remained.

And mobile data is not worked anyway.

When the new version will be released?

I want a release of Android 8.

The day will be come?

Or anybody knows the new release of K6?

Is there a Custom Rom in developing?
[Oukitel (All phone models)] rolandvb:
custom rom

i guess the`re is not, also it is far to quiet and they`re is no real engagement on this forum. :

i think this Oukitel k6 is not interesting enough for a lot of phone buyers and to be honest the oukitel K6 was only a interesting phone to buy for the presale prize

I would certainly never had ordered this phone if i had to pay $299 for it, for that money there are better choices.

don`t forget the 21% tax we have to pay in the Netherlands plus customs fees, the K6 will cost me almost $400 if i would have to order it now.

For the $129 i payed for(special prize) the K6 it was a very good deal

The K6 is really overprized now and really not worth the money considering we can buy a real samsung S8 in europe for about $425( with a $125 cashback if you send you`re old phone

to samsung).

For the regular prize the K6 is almost as expensive as a real Samsung S8 now , a real flagship with far better specs,better support big communitiy and custom roms and with 2 years warrantee

my conclusion is that it only makes sence to buy a mediocre chinese clone if the`re is a significant prize difference compaired to the real deal ,and this is not the case if you will have to pay $299 plus tax and fees .

I am almost sure most K6 phones where sold on presale and sales dropped drasticly now otherwise they`re would be more activity on this forum

umidigi did offer they`re S2 pro for for $299 and was no hit and to expensive for most people even with 128 rom and far better buid quality,

in my opinion the k6 is to slow for the specs and think it has all to do with they`re own firmware other brands did the same thing and was no succes and had the same usues with they`re own non stock android and did make they`re phones a lot slower and less snappyer.

Umidigi just did came out with the s2 lite that costs half the money of the S2 pro with a faster processor and 2 gig ram less , and guess what the s2 lite seems to be faster on revieuws as the s2 pro and it has all to do with stock or non stock android , i think with stock android 7 or 8 the k6 would be a lot faster and should have at least a antutu score above 65000, i wonder if oukitel will come with a android 8 update, some brands like doogee and umidigi are claiming they will come with a android 8 update in a few months, it would be great if the k6 would get a android 8 stock flashable update, because it surely will be significnatly faster,
[Oukitel (All phone models)] conkara:
I totally disagree with you ,there is activity in a forum about a unit only when there are number of issues ,in my opinion the k6 is a perfect vmf unit ...the only thing that is a con is it's weight...(not for me though..) when I get 17hours SOT ,I dont mind for a few grams more compered to other units....and yes I dare you go buy an umidigi....have you ever open an umidigi to see the hardware?go ahead read the comments about umi all over the world...I have had couple in the past...(.umi Rome...etc..)bad units bad hardware bad software...
[Oukitel (All phone models)] brightlee63:
Do you really think K6 is a perfect thing?

Can you really use without functions of mobile data communication and mms messages?

Can you really satisfy without an action for the complains? OUKITEL ignore complains and never reply.
[Oukitel (All phone models)] nanduking2:
Mobile data is working fine for me... Mms is outdated long back...who is using mms??
[Oukitel (All phone models)] brightlee63:
My K6 problem is mobile data problem.

Voice communication works well but mobile data communication doesn't work.

If I edited the APN and when I touch the 'SAVE' the settings are disappeared.

Is it a H/W problem or S/W problem?

Anybody knows whether it is H/W problem or not? (Voice O, Mobile data X.)

Should I open the back plate? And then what should I do?

I think there is no engineer who knows the circuit of OUKITEL K6.

Anybody who know the H/W of OUKITEL K6 (especially anttnna?) help me, please.
[Oukitel (All phone models)] AnouarNACH:
Hello all,

I received the K6 this week, everything is cool and work fine.

But the volume is crazy, sometimes top of volume is like 1/10 and sometimes music app don't get the full volume and sometimes yes...it's crazy how volume is not setup good.

I'm the only one?

I can't get my phone paired with Android Wear. Anyone been able to pair the Oukitel K6 with a smartwatch? I think it is a problem with Bluetooth pairing, so maybe anyone has been able to connect to any bluetooth device at all?
[Oukitel (All phone models)] conkara:
I've been pairing my k6 with my car's unit via Bluetooth with no problems...never lost a connection...and the unit is not even OEM...it's an aftermarket unit for my lancer ....
[Oukitel (All phone models)] Kefwar:
Thank you for your feedback on my problem. I have managed to fix this issue. In case anyone is having similar issues, I'll share how I fixed it:

1. Reset watch

2. Unpair Bluetooth on phone.

3. Start regular pairing process in Android Wear.

4. Once the phone thinks it is connected, go to Settings -> Bluetooth and Unpair / Forget watch again.

5. Pair using the Settings Bluetooth interface (Pairing was buggy for me, the pairing screen has only 0.2 seconds or something similar to accept, so keep pressing at the position of the Pair button when you tap your device in the available list)

6. Go back in the app and continue normally.

Is Volte working for u??
[Oukitel (All phone models)] conkara:
Can you give me an example...I've been reading your issues and I don't understand the difference between data and volte,..
[Oukitel (All phone models)] nanduking2:
Volte( voice over lte) u can call directly from 4G network , specs says it's enabled, but it's not working on my network, whereas other 4g volte phone works fine with my network provider, only this phone won't work, I cannot call from 4g network
[Oukitel (All phone models)] brightlee63:
I'm waiting, too.
[Oukitel (All phone models)] rolandvb:
volte

you can only call and use Volte if the other phone of the one you are calling also is using and capable and has support for 4 G volte, so both sides must be compatable with volte 4G

if you re calling someone on 4 G and that person does not have a phone or proivider that does not support volte or the other phone is not compatable with volte the converation will never be in volte quality , both ends have to have volte use it and be compatable with volte te be able to use the volte operation.

so it is impossible to make a volte quality call if the one you are calling has no phone witht volte support and will be a normal non volte converation.(connection)
[Oukitel (All phone models)] nanduking2:
Other end persons mobile supports volte, but this phone doesnt, and for ur kind information person recieving call called from volte phone need not be volte...u can call from volte to non volte phone atleast here in India on Jio network.

---------- Post added at 05:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:43 PM ----------

Only hope is we have to port a rom from other manufacturer with mt6763 chipset with all lte band unlocked, like elephone u or oppo f5 which supports most of the lte bands, not only 5 lte bands restricted like oukitel k6, i dont why oukitel people blocked other lte bands even though chipsets supports most of them...
[Oukitel (All phone models)] renofaringite:
Hi all,

i just finish rooting my K6 using the "HOW-TOs for Mediatek Devices" given in the beginning of this thread. No problems during the operation, pretty easy to do.

But I do have two weird things obviously :)

1- The Navbar :

The navbar is not always responding correctly; I need sometimes to tap several times on it to wake it up. Problem is worth with the icon used to display the apps list (little one in the middle with the 6 little points, i do not know the real name, sorry fo that). My primary launcher is "Microsoft Launcher". Absolutly no problems with my 3 others phones/tablets. This is a must have for me.

Also, hide the navbar is a very simple action BUT, on the other hand, it is very very complicated to display it ! Have i missing something ?? Is the "Ultimate dynamic Navbar" from XDA an interresting alternative ??

Uninstall Apps (system or not):

I was unable to uninstal apps correctly with Titanium Backup because apps reappears after a reboot(or sometimes just after few minutes without reboot). I managed to do it with another Root Uninstaler, even if I needed sometimes to launch the uninstal process several times !

Thanks in advance for your feedbacks ! (And sorry for my bad english...)

Rino.
[Oukitel (All phone models)] nanduking2:
Sad story, powerful chipset with world lte modem with dual 4g standby, but oukitel made it oldschool by there software
[Oukitel (All phone models)] rolandvb:
explanation volte LTE problems

to be able to use VoLTE the`re are more issues , what they don`t tell is that the phone does not only has to support lte volte but also the K6 firmware must be compatable with the

LTE volte protocol of you`re provider

Not all providers world wide are using the same system and protocols for switching from 3 to 4 G or dual standby 4G

the manufacturer of the device must also have developed special software for all different protocols and they did not.

so Software must be tailored to(for) the specific network of the used provider.

To me it seems impossible for a brand to support all used different protocols worldwide

So if volte does not work on the K6 with you`re provider it is simply and just a software related problem,and it is unlikely that this will be solved in the future

Oukitel does not and to me it also seems impossible to make a firmware that will work with all networks and will support all used protocols and different systems that are used.

In the Netherlands we alreddy have providers that only are using and offering calling only over volte LTE over 4 G and does not support a 3G network anymore, and some are also providing 4G + and i think

4g+ is not supported by the oukitel K6.

4G + means teh pone will use 2 or even 3 different frequency`s at the same time to speed up the internet connection.

If you did take a subcription with such a provider that only is using 4G volte LTE for making phonecalls and are not offering calling over 3G and the firmware of the K6 does not support the providers needed volte LTE protocols you are Fxxked and wil be unable to make any phonecalls because these providers are only using the 4 G band for making only Volte calls.

internet will work but you will not be able to make any phonecalls, so watch out when subcribing to a provider that is only offering 4G, there will be a chance that the firmware of the K6 will not support

the needed protocols and the firmware of the K6 will not be suitable for you`re provider, this is only firmware related. I personally think it will be impossible for oukitel or other brands to make a firmware that will have support for all used protocols worldwide for all providers, it has nothing to do with old school but with the protocols and system you`re provider is using.

[Oukitel (All phone models)] uncleabubear:
Unfortunately you are wrong. The manufacturer can choose which bands to enable in hardware regardless of which bands a processor supports. K6 has bands 1/3/7/8/20. No other bands can be 'unlocked'.

i guess Oukitel is giving priority for the bands used in Europe. and aiming on the european market all bands we need in Europe are supported:)

The stock system music.apk isn't working

I have the problem with the system com.android.music apk.

When i try to open it, it craches immediately. I tried everything and only the factory reset was successfull. But, after restoring apps from Google backup (just the part of these, verified by Google protect) the problem is back again and i can't open this app. I found some good music players which are functional, but i prefer the stock music apk. I don't want to reset my phone again and erase all of my data, because my phone isn't rooted and i can't restore the apps data of some important bank and NFC touch and pay apps. I have the newest software version V22, by OTA update.

What can i do to fix it? Which apps are incompatible with this system music.apk?
[Oukitel (All phone models)] Kefwar:
Have you tried just deleting the data and cache for the music app? That (maybe corrupt) data might have been restored along with the cloud backup.
[Oukitel (All phone models)] drpainster:
Yes, of course. I already said that i tried everything. The question is what is corrupted and which apps are maybe incompatible with the music apk?
[Oukitel (All phone models)] drpainster:
In the safe mode, the music apk is working fine. Now, it's obvious that some apps are incompatible with this apk. I thought that i can find it in the safe mode, but nothing. What to do?

Hi, I just recently got a K6 and tried installing twrp but it say's I need a password. Upon further research found that it's due to the phone being encrypted and in order to decrypt it I factory reset it. However that did not work, any tips on how to get around this?
[Oukitel (All phone models)] rolandvb:
you will have to clean the partitions before flashing twrp and the encription problem will be solved

you will have to install everything again.

in my opinion the oukitel k6 sucks ,it died on me in 6 weeks , using a Nubia M2 now and for less money and can tell you a 2 times better phone.

it is still running on android 6 but i don`t care because it is 100% bugfree and the 2 camera`s are both real and making better pictures.

i certainly never will buy a oukitel mediocre brand again, the back is not removeable and when removing it you will rip all the antenna s that are glued on the plastic back.

in fact it is a kind of disposable phone, normal service is simply imposible, in my opinion a very bad phone with inferiour build quality,and very unreliable

i did order the K6 especially for the NFC function ,but did not pass security certification for my bank app ,so worthless nfc for me.

the screen is very good and ok and runs ok but my nubia M2 i did buy for $150 is a lot faster and wifi and lte reception are 2 tiems better , i did not get 4 G inside my house

with teh Nubia have no problems at all.

i will never buy a mediocre phone sold under false specs again, and support is also 0%

i did contact oukitel 3 times about parts to revive my K6 but no answers . thanks oukitel !! foe selling me a piece of crap
[Oukitel (All phone models)] renofaringite:
I use the K6 since several months and everything is working fine. Big screen, big battery, responsive phone for 180 euros on Banggood. What did you expect ? ^ ^

I do not care about NFC (this is gadget for me) and rooting is very easy, thanks to Oukitel compared to Xiaomi Middle Ages rooting system (your rooting demand need to be accepted by Xiaomy... Lol...).

I use it every day : Internet, GPS, music in my car with Bluetooth or as a speed camera alert system (Waze or Coyote) on my motorbike. Photos are not as so beautiful as with a Reflex ? Yes I know that. But it's enougt, and if I want amazing pics I need to buy a real camera.

Stock rom is also empty of crappy apps, compare to a lot of phone brand.

This is not a Samsung S12 or an Iphone 13, but that phone do what I need and what I demand.

An oreo update and it will be almost perfect !
