elephone p8000

any insight as to why every computer i plug my bold n1 into it shows up as a elephone p8000?

and on that note, say i found a working twrp for the elephone p8000 would that be possible?

i lost my root and android 10 due to bootloop. i used spflash to restore stock pie firmware. but now no matter what method or gsi or rom i try to flash my phone just will not accept it. The flashing is always successful, but upon reboot, i get a yellow/green screen flash followed by boot anim boot loop? any idea what would be causing this? i cant for the life of me figure out why my phone wont accept any system imgs i try to flash..
[Blu Bold N1 Guides, News, & Discussion] mrmazak:
Elephone p8000 is at least 3 years old. And would not think twrp from it will work on your bold n1.

As for why your PC shows your bold n1 as different phone, I can only guess that your PC drivers are somehow modified.

Or your phone is maybe not stock?
[Blu Bold N1 Guides, News, & Discussion] FelixWong.com:
V208 works on Bold N1!

For any version of Android 10 GSI , the asset file you want to download, unzip, and then flash onto the Bold N1 is:

system-quack-arm64-ab-gapps.img.xz

You MUST use the ARM64/AB files. The others won't work. I wish I knew that before spending hours trying the other ones (I mistakenly thought the Bold N1 was an A-Only Device)!

I was successfully able to flash Android 10.0 v208 onto the Bold N1! It works nearly perfectly. You lose the stock Bold Camera app, of course, and I don't know if the fingerprint reader works as I wouldn't be able to use it with a screen protector anyhow. (Use the stock Android camera or Open Camera instead, which I prefer, and use Smart Devices/Trusted Places/Pattern Unlock for convenient unlocking.) Netflix and Turo (car-sharing app) also currently won't install with this version of Android, presumably because this version is too new for them.

This ROM is working much better for me than the stock Bold N1 Android Pie ROM for the following reasons:

With the stock ROM, maybe once or twice a day I would get inexplicable battery drain where the CPU would be pegged at 1.5 GHz and 100% utilization that could only be resolved with a reboot. I never could determine the culprit despite trying for months, including resetting the phone.

With this AOSP Android 10 ROM, auto-detection of time-zone actually works for me. For some reason, the stock ROM kept thinking I was in the Eastern Time Zone instead of Mountain Time Zone when using Google Fi as the phone carrier.

System-wide dark mode in Android 10.

Android 10's navigation gestures are far superior to the Bold N1's stock gesture options, and even better than XDA's Navigation Gestures app.

No bloatware like Opera and miscellaneous Google apps.

How to install Netflix and Turo apps for custom ROM

It turns out that Netflix, Turo, and perhaps some others disallow installing their apps from the Google Play Store on devices with an unlocked bootloader.

Since you never want to re-lock the bootloader on a custom ROM, here's how to install Netflix and Turo instead. For Netflix, download its latest APK from a source like apkpure.com and install. For Turo, download the latest XAPK from apkpure.com and install using the APKPure app.

I now have both of them working on my Bold N1 running AOSP Android 10.0 GSI v208! Still really happy with this custom ROM on the Bold N1!

I got everything flashed right only issues i noticed is certain aninated stuff are not working like a glitch effect..? and on Facebook and videos just glitched.. has that been resolved or is it just me.
[Blu Bold N1 Guides, News, & Discussion] mrmazak:
There is some talk in the gsi support group about an mtk codec bug. But no mention of solution yet. Only seems to effect some type of videos. Like the one embedded in Facebook. But YouTube should not have the issue, for example.
[Blu Bold N1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ᐯerified Developer:
Yes your correct
[Blu Bold N1 Guides, News, & Discussion] lolwatpear:
why won't the fingerprint sensor work, and how can will get it working? is it possible?
[Blu Bold N1 Guides, News, & Discussion] JimmyJurner:
Just got this phone. Coming from OnePlus 7 pro. I wanted to know is this the only GSI we can flash? If not what others work and what's the process to flash them? Thanks
[Blu Bold N1 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheGeekRedneck:
I've successfully used the LineageOS 17 based on project Treble with great success. Really any ROM based on project treble should work. Just look for AB arm64 builds.

The flashing process is pretty much identical, just wipe system, data, and cache in TWRP and then flash the ROM and appropriate gapps package.
[Blu Bold N1 Guides, News, & Discussion] JimmyJurner:
Thank you for the response. Going to backup and try that way. I've tried many but I get in this bootloop.
[Blu Bold N1 Guides, News, & Discussion] JimmyJurner:
Can't get any GSI to boot. Is going back to stock completely needed? I don't really get mtk flash tools
[Blu Bold N1 Guides, News, & Discussion] mrmazak:
Well , going full stock /boot and /vendor is the way I got gsi to run good. So if you can't get it to run without this step. I would say that , yes this confirms the fact , yes, it is needed.
[Blu Bold N1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mazmuth:
Has anyone tested the newer versions? Only thing holding me back is not being able to use finger print.
[Blu Bold N1 Guides, News, & Discussion] mrmazak:
I just did flash V221. Yes the fingerprint is working. Seems a little awkward, but did work.

On unlocking screen still had to manually set brightness to full but it did unlock with FP

After returning to stock I flash android10 thru adb and then add twrp to then flash gapps and root ?
[Blu Bold N1 Guides, News, & Discussion] WIDark:
How did you get fingerprint setup to work? I just flashed AOSP 10.0 v222 from phhusson, and the fingerprint setup screen says that the sensor is "on the back of your phone." Is there a patch that you have for this? Thanks.
[Blu Bold N1 Guides, News, & Discussion] mrmazak:
The screen says it's on the back. But of course the ROM can't move the hardware. Just touch. The screen where it supposed to be (on the front ) and it worked.

Well. My phone has been tested few times with fixes along the way. Maybe you still need to do the "adb persist setprop fod_location" command.

I am do for a full reset, so I'll do a factory wipe and reflash , to confirm the ROM is all you need or if you need to add adb command to set the location.
[Blu Bold N1 Guides, News, & Discussion] greeneyez15o:
Ok, so finally got the android 10 on my bold. Do I have to stay encrypted ?
[Blu Bold N1 Guides, News, & Discussion] WIDark:
Did you happen to do the full reset? Having fingerprint is not a top priority for me at all, but I am just curious if it's easy to implement.

Also, can someone point me to how I can uninstall the baked in SU and put Magisk in to root? I put some time in searching, but I did not find what anything like a "For Dummies" guide, and I am not risking making a mistake. I am still new at this.
[Blu Bold N1 Guides, News, & Discussion] mrmazak:
No, I have not touched the bold in while. I'm using a redmi note 8, and working on Blu g90 in the current time.

For removing built in su. Phh had a script right in the settings of his gsi "securize" it does just what you ask. Removed su. As far a magisk working, I'm not sure. I think it will, but magisk clearly says it does not support gsi, so be prepared to flash gsi image again if the magisk does not work.
[Blu Bold N1 Guides, News, & Discussion] greeneyez15o:
I flashed unsu.zip and then flashed phhmagisk . No issues yet

Dear Brothers,

I've bought a brand new battery pack for my magician a month ago, initially everything seems find. Until one day I found that my magician felt a little bit hotter than usual during charging. I noticed that the battery indicator shows at 80% like forever. Never increase even after few hours charging. it stop at 80% and the battery is a bit warm. Why this happen? TQ :rolleyes:
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Nokia 3650:
You have a damaged battery pack (you may even notice it starting to swell slighty). This is a hazard for either a fire or explosion later on. The possibility existed that you either shook or dropped the battery pack. These units 'fast charge' to 80%, then 'trickle charge' to 100%.

If your pack isn't labeled 'dynapak', then you could have simply bought a generic brand (which wasn't assembled properly).
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] alitkeren:
Try to charge with lower ampere below <500maH so it will charge slowly. You can charge with MP3 Player charger which have more lower Ampere.

Coba charge pake charger punya MP3 Player, biasanya ampere nya kecil. Lambat penuh tapi siapa tahu aja bisa sampe 100%
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] OBTonyD:
Finally got around to replacing a broken screen for this phone using some excellent tutorials on youtube. Unfortunately phone now won't power up or hold a charge. No red light when plugged in. Checked for lint in charging port, all clear. Tested battery, registered 3.45V so there's some power. Guess I'm gonna have to take it apart again and check the connections. Anything I overlooked? What is likely to be the problem? Thanks in advance.

i seen that Xiaomi Mi Play is a Xiaomi phone with MTK and full HD display that have MIUI V10.

Mi Play use Android 8.1, so i think it should be possible to port its ROM to Jiayu S3 using MAD Oreo 8.1 ROM as base.

But all my test don't work at all, only partial boot or bootloop.

there is anyone can give me a good guide to port Android 8.1 ROM (for mediatek) ?

or someone alse that is able to do this ROM port ?

[ZTE Nubia Z17  Guides, News, & Discussion] ronvanv:
Hi on the chinese bbs.nubia.cn site you can download a custom rom with android pie and nubia ui 6.0 for the nubia z17s. I've downloaded and installed this rom with twrp. Installed opengapps (mini) and magisk v20.

So far everything seems to work. After first boot you will get some chinese screens (just push the obvious buttons:):) and after that you can choose for english or some other languages.

bluetooth, screen mirroring, wifi, nubia camera, play store, banking apps, netflix etc. all seem to work without any problems. I've installed a Gcam mod and it's also working. I've used his rom as my daily driver for the last few days without any problems.

Only problem is the extremely slow download of the rom from the Chinese site and you need a QQ account which took me some time to figure out (but with success).

I'm not sure if I can share this rom because I didn't have contact with the developer of the rom .
[ZTE Nubia Z17  Guides, News, & Discussion] Tomcar:

Okay, short review:

Installation is a bit tricky, I recommend Fingerprint setup after the global Google setup.

Translation is crap (for german users), most of settings remain in english.

GPS can´t be changed to battery saving, same as on Syberia 2.3

On the techical side everything seems to work, fingerprint works perfectly, NFC i don´t know because I´m not using it.

Livewallpaperpicker is installed, now I can use KLWP :D

Deep sleep is working, maybe one can try the Vendor an Kernel with PT.

Battéry loss is 10% overnight.

The biggest problem is what i observed on every Nubia Color Os Rom: It´s extremly slow compared to PT Roms. Starting a third-party app take it´s time, you don´t believe this is a SD835.

This is a absolute no go for me.
[ZTE Nubia Z17  Guides, News, & Discussion] ronvanv:
Strange I used havoc 2.9 and Mokee 9 before and don't notice any performance differences compared to this rom? Which 3-party app is slow?

What could be is that Nubia is killing background services more aggressive? But you can whitelist apps!

I notice the battery consumption on this rom is much better than any rom rom I've tried so far. With PT roms I couldn't make it till the end of the day without charging.
[ZTE Nubia Z17  Guides, News, & Discussion] Tomcar:
Want to say apps not app, as it is every app.

I don´t mean apps running in the background, these are starting fast as expected

Try Opera beta Solid Explorer or Force-Stop-It for example, On PT they are starting 3x times faster. (Havoc, Syberia, Lineage)

You´re right that bettery comsumption is a little bit better on Stock, but not that much. PT gives me 60% at the end of the day.

Overnight its 15% of loss to 10% with stock. Remember to boot after recharge, no deep sleep results into bad battery consumption

Mokee ist meh ;)

How to install

Hello,

tried to install over the current chinese rom Version 3.27 but it won't boot . :(

Any suggestions?

Best regards
[ZTE Nubia Z17  Guides, News, & Discussion] ronvanv:
You have to format your phone first with twrp.
[ZTE Nubia Z17  Guides, News, & Discussion] drfleckenstein:
I formated data and wiped all other but no boot. :(

What rom should I install before the EU 1.12?

I used TWRP 3.3.1 from 4pda.
[ZTE Nubia Z17  Guides, News, & Discussion] ronvanv:
Did you format like in this tutorial? https://andi34.github.io/faq/faq_twrp.html. I just followed these steps and installed without any problems.

I came from EU 1.12 but that shouldn't make any difference.

Good luck:good:
[ZTE Nubia Z17  Guides, News, & Discussion] Tomcar:
No need to format data/media

With Magisk installed?

Remember to disable verify
[ZTE Nubia Z17  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nordicus:
Yes, I confirm that - formatting of Data/Media is not required.

For a clean installation it is necessary to wipe 4 partitions in the TWRP - boot/cache/dalvik cache/data.

Thanks. Downloaded from Mega but was unable to flash it.

The process was:

1) Enter fastboot mode and unlock the bootloader

2) Flash TWRP 3.3.1

3) Format data

4) Reboot to TWRP

5) Wipe system, dalvik and cache

6) Install rom

7) Install gapps 9.0 nano which I had downloaded from earlier

At this point, it fails. The gapps installer says my rom is based on Android 7.1.2 and refuses to go on. If I try to boot the phone to check the system, it gets stuck on the Nubia logo.

So I haver just gone back to global firmware 1.12 until I can find an explanation. Wrong firmware, maybe?
[ZTE Nubia Z17  Guides, News, & Discussion] jman0:
OK, wrong TWRP rather than wrong firmware file. I just flashed the file twrp_recovery_NX595J_3.2.3_p.img I had previously downloaded some time ago and flashed the rom again. It just finished booting, after flashing the NubiaUI 7.0 version and Magisk 20.3, which I also had lying around on a flash drive.

The problem now is that on first setup it's asking for a pin and I don't know which one it is. It can't be Google account related, since I haven't added it yet. It's not a sim lock pin either, since I also tried with no sim card and it's still asking for that pin.

I can't setup the phone due to this and had to revert to stock rom again in order to be able to have a working phone. I almost had it.
