I don't think the lens has a removable film other than the applied anti-glare coat, which should not be removed (it gives the lens that purple tint)..

Your mention about "was able to update the google services easily enough so apps sideloaded that need the latest services version all work" does this mean that you were able to sign-in to google services? i.e. playstore or gmail or chrome etc? Or just that you could update the apps via sideload?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osymoko:
Thank you, my eyesight is so bad as I get older I just couldn't make it out.

What I meant was I sideloaded apps via Bluetooth, Dropbox etc. Some wouldn't work as they state at startup "won't work without Google services" so I updated the Google Services Framework to latest via apkmirror (arm, 480dpi version) and those apps would now work perfectly. But, of course no - still can't sign in to apps via the phone's missing Google account..
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g256w:
Thanks for the clarification!

It's too bad no further OTA updates were pushed after February.... and why the February release didn't change the incorrect device ID of the phone.. that would have solved all our problems.

Hopefully someone finds a way to root the phone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ely91:
Logged into Google Play

By Acess about the phone and law informations, and google law information, I'm logged in Play Store, anyway it dosnt recognize my Voga V, just other phones.

So I Would ask you:

We cant access Google Play becouse Google don't recognize Voga V?

Or Voga V haven't a kind of license to acess Google?

Cheers.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g256w:
The google servers don't allow a device id with a "space" in the name. So if they named the phone "VogaV" it would be OK, but since they named the phone "Voga V" it's not working. at least that's the error in the ADB logs when you try to connect to google servers.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ely91:
Oh My God... This is so sad :( all this confusion just for a "space"...

I Think we can create a negative marketing for Ragentek untill they fix it...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g256w:
Yup this won't work as the device ID doesn't change with this procedure. The authentication to Google still uses the Device ID with the spaces in it. Changing the required files requires root, and there is no current means to root the Voga V (at least none that i've seen so far).

The only other hope is to try to get someone who has the google play store working on the earliest and initial version of the Voga V and get a dump of their ROM. There was an initial version that playstore was working on for the first few users.. but any subsequent updates (including the production ROM version) broke it!

Meanwhile gearbest refunded me 30$ because of this problem, but I would be happier if there would be a solution ;)

Great link! Thanks!!! The recovery of Voga V is this: X4 soul vision so it's okay but the ROM is in COMING SOON state.

My Voga V is semi brick but if the link works, maybe I save it. Let's hope.

P.S. Unlock the bootloader is possible by adb. I brick my device for wrong recovery because no custom recovery at the moment. But with bootloader unlock is possible install root permission by adb, I hope.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g256w:
ROM version issue

Hey all, it looks like there is an early version of the VOGA V ROM that has the correct configuration to allow the playstore to be used.

See this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/MVIS/comments/8v72k1/ok_google_open_projection_hands_free_voga_v/

The poster (thanks for his assistance) was able to confirm his build number VOGA_V02_17112017 did work OK, but my build number VOGA_V04_06122017 and VOGA_V06_26022018 does not work. So if you have the early build DO NOT UPDATE!

Again

VOGA_V02_17112017 = good

VOGA_V04_06122017 = bad

VOGA_V06_26022018 = bad

The build number can be found under Settings > About Phone > System Updates.

If we can find a way to obtain a dump of the earlier ROM, or downgrade the ROM, that might be a solution.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oriezra:
Thanks a friend for the information.

But I need the rum of voga v device.

If you can download the update - VOGA_V02_17112017.

I'm sorry i haven't found any instructions on how to "download" the ROM to a file, let alone how to flash it back. Once we get those instructions, we may be able to ask someone who has the older ROM to create a file for us.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g256w:
have you tried this procedure yet?

I don't have the correct ROM on my phone (i'm already updated past the versions that people found worked with Google)

I think there may even be a possibility of the type of VOGA V (Blue vs Black model) is a cause here. I think most of the folks who have Google and the earlier ROM version have BLUE Voga Vs, whereas the later models are black and do not work.

If anyone has a BLACK voga v 64GB/4GB that is working with google play - please reply here and let us know your ROM version.

I just did the same to the Moviphone projector phone which is mt6750 processor.

I followed magisk install precisely and even cooked my boot.img with superr's kitchen so I'm pretty sure I have found a bug with magisk, which by the way is the beta version 15.3(1531) here .

Nope, you can't. LTE Bands are hardcoded on ALL devices and can't be modified.
