Can someone say something about the vibration motor? How is it in comparison to other phones? Does it do a load noise or can you really only feel the vibration? Is it so strong that if you place it on a table it will vibrate too? :)

Hello everyone, I have a problem with my U Pro. This morning I try to unlock my phone and nothing happened like it was shut down, and few minutes before that, everything was ok. Now it is not responding to anything, I tried all combinations with the buttons, I tried holding them for half a minute and nothing is happening the screen is black, I connected the charger and not even the led indicate that the phone is charging. I am in a dead end. I have no idea what is going on, I have never install any ROM's or anything, the phone is stock. I was using both the face and the finger print unlocking settings. When I connected it to the computer, the PC gave me the sound for connecting a device but nothing else. Please if anyone can help I would be thankful.

Did some testing and the face recognition works fine but... just not the way I expected.

With the fingerprint scanner I get straight to the home screen when the screen is dark and the phone is locked .

With face recognition I have to press the power button to light the screen, then when my face is recognized the small padlock on the bottom opens and I can swipe up the screen to get to my home screen. Too many actions compare to the fingerprint.
[General Questions and Answers] darkjura:
Yes but it is good alternative if you unable to use fingerprint scanner in particular occasion and best part they can work together

Little question, does thé phone really have thé notification on the logo behing ? I can't find
[General Questions and Answers] skeleton1911:
It has a little led notification on the front. Right upper site. (Like Samsung) and the ele logo on the back side will glow . They call it "breath light" . But it only glows and blink when you get a call.

Also the screen sites will glow when you get a call.

It's a cool feature :)

Gesendet von meinem U_Pro mit Tapatalk
[General Questions and Answers] htmcrp:
I don't see a notification behind the Logo. There is however a notification LED on the front and the color can be programed for different types of notifications.
[General Questions and Answers] skeleton1911:
Turn the phone to the display site. So you see the back.

And call yourself with another phone. The elephone logo will glow.

Then turn around the phone and you will see a glow at the both sites of the display

P.s

This only works when you receive a call .

Not with notifications

Hello everyone

I know it has been a long time since the last post and that probably nobody uses the Elephone U Pro anymore

but I wanted to know if after so long someone could find a solution, when installing a custom rom the signal was lost forever
[General Questions and Answers] GalUnDrux:
Hey, just seen this, I think some of the custom roms remove the IMEI number, if you have the original box you may be able to fix the signal issue (if you havent already as it was over 2 years ago you posted lol)

I still use my U Pro and love it to bits! Im currenlty running the Pixel Experience Q rom, i have had some green and red lines form on the screen recently so going to order a screen i found on aliexpress for £22 (heres the link if anyone needs it:Elephone U/U Pro Replacement Screen)

Something else...

The "curved edge screen" menu was working at the beginning. Along the way when I started to personalize the phone it disappeared. I am using Nova launcher but even after I installed that it still worked. Even switching back to the native launcher does not bring it back.

Does anyone has this problem too?
[General Questions and Answers] htmcrp:
Correct. It is rather a sales gag than something of technical value.
[General Questions and Answers] skeleton1911:
MHH works fine for me the last days and I also use nova ..

Maybe make a hardreset (long press power until phone reboots)

Or via adb command

Adb reboot recovery.

Then hold vol+ and power 3 sec to enter the recovery.

Wipe cache and restart

I think i gonna buy this phone once you port your TWRP [MENTION=421893]skelet[/MENTION]eon1911 LoL
[General Questions and Answers] skeleton1911:
It will take a bit time I think.

First I need a firmware of the u pro.

It is locked and bootloader isn't possible to unlock

(But this is normal . Was with p8000, p9000 and s8 the same, we don't need an unlock bootloader anyway)

The fstab is encrypted . (Normal for Qualcomm devices and higher android like 7 or 8 ) it is not possible without root to get a dump from the partitions (e.g boot.img,system.img etc)

To have root I need a firmware (only boot.img) of the device. So i can take a look into it, root it and build a custom recovery ...

We have to wait ,that elephone release the stock rom.zip . / Firmware etc..

Root apps like farma , kingroot etc don't work with this Snapdragon

GUYS

WARNING!,

DO NOT UNLOCK THE BOOTLOADER!! with fastboot command " fastboot flashing unlock

what happened:

i thought i can push the su script for root via some tools i have.

well that was a fast and stressful journey ! hahahahahah heart attack!

first i tried to unlock the bootloader again with adb

adb reboot bootloader. and then " fastboot oem unlock" that command didnt worked. used fastboot flashing unlock

that did it.

i unlocked bootloader. thats where the trouble begins.

phone reboots with a bootloader warning (normal) and after that i had no access to the system. the FRP ( factory reset protection) was enabled by default and ask for my password. LOOOL

i tried all ! my google password . pin. Sim pin. nothing works.

i googled and found out that many devices have a bug there. seems the u pro too.

then after 50 times with the wrong password . it reboots itself to recovery and wiped the userdata partition again.

well at least i have a working phone again.

what commands i used

you have to enable usb debugging in developer settings . ( show hidden developer settings/ tap 7 times on the build numbe rin phone about)

for booting to bootloader

adb reboot bootloader

booting to recovery

adb reboot recovery

to unlock bootloader, ( you have to be in fastboot mode, but first enable oem unlock in developer settings)

fastboot flashing unlock

and to lock again

fastboot flashing lock

i will try it again tomorrow :D . have a great idea. hehe

You can flash magisk but you have to unlock the bootloader and push through fastboot a modded boot.img .

I thought it was something different
[General Questions and Answers] skeleton1911:
For that modded boot.img you don't need an unlocked bootloader.

We just need the firmware. Then we can take out the boot.img and patch it with magisk manager. After That we can flash it in fastboot

Am gonna be off-topic a little, but it's still related to my Elephone U Pro purchase. To make people aware that they may get frustrated a lot about the GearBest shipping ways. I mean, it's 21st Century and I'm always at awe when I track things being flown to me from Asia by Fedex or UPS like a giant, global clockwork: HK, China than Japan layover, back to South Korea to pick up some more cargo cans, then zooom it overnight, over the dateline to LAX or JFK so you can get it on time as scheduled some days before. Yup, it's only 21st Century so, sometimes a glitch or two are expected to happen.

Then, there is GearBest: they charged my credit card $459.99 on Feb 21 and so it went:

first, it took 9 (nine!) days to bring it to the airport

2018-03-01 11:20 Shipment information received

2018-03-01 10:14 HONG KONG - HONG KONG / Depart from facility to service provider.

2018-02-24 13:15 Shipment information received

2018-02-24 11:57 HONG KONG - HONG KONG / Shipment arrived at facility

2018-02-24 11:57

and, eventually: 2018-03-02 00:41 USJFK / Despatched to overseas

I'd guess, at this point in time, they finally loaded it into cargo plane

It's almost 03/09/18 here in the US on the east coast and the tracking information from GearBest still reads:

Detail

2018-03-02 00:41 USJFK / Despatched to overseas

2018-03-01 11:20 Shipment information received

2018-03-01 10:14 HONG KONG - HONG KONG / Depart from facility to service provider.

2018-02-24 13:15 Shipment information received

2018-02-24 11:57 HONG KONG - HONG KONG / Shipment arrived at facility

2018-02-24 11:57

Well, I did some 'ticket' requests, now they(GearBest) ask me to be patient for another 7 days so they can resolve the issue. I will wait, I answered, but they must take care of their business I added, the competition is fierce, it takes some guts to stay in the game etc,etc... I don't care if they put 25 days business days delivery duration, if the package gets to the airport it must fly right away...
[General Questions and Answers] htmcrp:
Yes my friend the future is Asia. It took 6 days for me to get my phone from Gearbest. But then I am living in the Philippines. If it is a consolidation, we have other disadvantages, like an internet speed that is calculated in MBM (Megabytes/Minute) [emoji57]
[General Questions and Answers] mzsquared:
Yes, but it doesn't matter where we live... We're all just a commodity. I've lived in place where I had to pay $51 a month for 6Mbps a month ADSL internet with no other options to switch because the telcom companies protected their turf paying big money to politicians. My friends in Europe would pay just a fraction of that to have a really, really high speed fiber optics. No telcom companies in the US are interested in investing in fiber optics because: 'what for'? Unless, they face the competition. (Who paid more $$$ to politicians) So," that's how it goes". Kurt Vonnegut - paraphrased.

Another issue. Anyone using magnet charging cable?

I used it with my P9000 and it worked well. After several weeks it not only stopped working but it damaged the USB port.

My wife is using the same with her Samsung A7 without any problems. So I took the risk and tried it with the U pro.

It is detected and the phone reports on charge, but it does not charge the battery.

It might have to do with the wireless charging capability but that is only my guess.
