HKC (TechFaith Bono) and Android - General Questions and Answers

I'm hoping that someone can help with this problem.
My employer has purchased a bunch of HKC G901 WM phones direct from China.
Specs here. From what I can make out it is the same as this TechFaith Bono.
From what I could see the phone is (possibly) a similar phone to other HTC phones. I have tried to install Android on the phone using information from this site which didn't work and after a bit of googling I came to the xda-developers site.
What I am hoping to find out is either
a) what htc phone the hkc one I have is the same as, so that I can use that android install
or
b) can anyone direct me to a g901/bono specific android install that I can use.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

That is not a htc device, it mite be a clone but i dont know what device its cloning! im 99.9% sure that you will not find an android build for that device and you will not find many answers here as we only support HTC devices ..... sorry
Try winmodevelopers

no problems, thanks for the info

Sorry to hear that you are having problems; however, you might not find help here since your device is not an HTC windows mobile device and there might not be many people familiar with your device. You might be better off returning it to the vendor for warranty repair or replacement.
You won't be able to upgrade to WM 6.1 as your device is not supported in this forum and if you flashed a WM 6.1 ROM for another device to yours you would likely brick your phone. There might not even be anyone here in this forum who could even tell you how to unlock your phone or even enter into bootloader. Contact the manufacturer of your device to see if they have official upgrades available.
Sorry that this might not be much help but most people here are only familiar with HTC Windows Mobile devices and other HTC made devices. I researched your device and it does not seem to be made by HTC. Good Luck
It seems that you have a settings problem. I would check with the carrier or the manufacturer.
As far as WM 6.1, you'll probably have to wait until either Spice releases an official update or until someone is able to port it. So far, hotrod101 is correct, I have searched a while and there doesn't seem to be much information regarding your phone (let alone development on it).
Good luck!
Thanx guys, for ur valuable time and help.

[Q] Question in regards to Nokia C7-00.1

Ok guys a friend of mine has a Nokia C7-00.1 with the Symbian OS. I was wondering if it was possible to root this phone and put a version of Android on it? Ive been searching everywhere and have found nothing.
One more question. I have supposedly put the legit version of Gingerbread 2.3.3 on my htc G2 that i found on this site and i was just wondering if its any different than the version that was recently updated my tmobile and if i should uninstall the version i currently have that I acquired and in turn allow tmobile to update the phone itself...
The first question is more important because symbian is wack and his phones specs seems like it could easily run android. Please lmk what the deal is DEVS
Thank You,
Krypt0
You are the most awesome man on earth! Install an Android OS to a Symbian based phone... RESPECT!
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
pls anyone respond on this thread please.

[Q] Flash not working HTC one S

Hi all, First time posting on forums so hope someone can help. I got a HTC One S a month or S ago and am realising that Flash Doesnt seem to be working. Have tried to find fixes on google and forums but with no luck. I found something saying that it may not be loaded on from the factory where i got it (think it may be a grey import model phone). Is there any ways to fix it. Details about phone are HTC One S 1gb, Dual Core, Android 4.0.3, Software Number 1.11.708.110, HTC SDK 4.21, HTC Extension version_403_1_GA_9. If there is anything else you need to help please let me know. Thanks so much

[Completed] [Q] Goophone MF353zp/a Iphone 5s clone

Hello Guys, First time poster here. I have been scouring the internet for the past few days looking for some solutions, and found that XDA was the best place for android users to congregate and give help and opinions.:highfive:
First off, let me start off by saying that I am a complete android noob when it comes to messing around with rooting and flashing. So pardon if some of the things I say come across as foolish.
My girlfriend bought me what she thought was an original iphone 5s on her recent trip to China where she was teaching English. Little did she know that she got fooled into buying what I now found out is a Goophone i5s MF353zp/a. :crying:Since I want to keep the phone since she did get it for me as a nice gesture, I am trying to get it to run a regular android 4.2.2 jelly bean or better, without all the iphone icons and iphone crap. Also the phone did not come with playstore so I cannot download apps that I would use on a regular basis. Also most of the stuff is in Chinese and I just want to be able to use it as a regular android phone. I read up on roms, and rooting and flashing, but if someone could tell me the best way to go about getting a regular android version on the phone along with google play store, It would be much appreciated.
Thanks for reading my long post. Be Safe. Cheers :good:

Thanks for your reply. Are you sure about this? Because it is currently running 4.2.2 with an ios skin from what I could read on the internet.
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. There is not much information about your device on XDA but I did find these which may help:

I'm not that familiar with the Goophone but I believe you'll want to know the what I believe is the processor number, it starts with MTK followed by 4 numbers. Before you do anything see if you can find that and then ask in the threads linked. If all else fails ask in this forum, http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help
Good luck!

Thanks buddy. I'll check out the links you gave. :good: I might have come across the links before, but I was too scared to try something since I did not want to brick the phone. As for the processor number, I came across MT6572, if that's the one. I can't find anything with MTK. Appreciate your help in this. :fingers-crossed:
Yes, it was my mistake on the MTK. It's MT. I'll close this thread then.

Can I upgrade Alcatel Hero 2 to Lollipop?

I'm a complete newbie in the Android world (iPhone user), so I'm so sorry in advance if I'm asking a stupid question. So today I bought an Alcatel Hero 2 from Amazon. The device hasn't arrived yet. The device has Android Kitkat on it and from some youtube review videos I knew that the customized Android version installed on the device is chubby so I thought if I can upgrade to vanilla Lollipop then the performance will improve.
There is very little information on the web about the Hero 2. I only found a webpage (can't post a link here because I'm new but google for "upgrade alcatel hero 2 lollipop" and you'll find it) that says one can upgrade to Lollipop, but it seems to be SCAM. Thus I thought it's better to ask here to get trusted answers since I don't want to get into security problems.
I know what ROMs are and have a little background but I don't know where to get trusted ROMs or if it's possible at all to upgrade my phone. I appreciate any answers.
Many thanks in advance!
Probably not, unless Alcatel comes out with its own Lollipop update or more threads appear here for Hero 2 ROMs.
The Hero 2 isn't very popular, or at least well-known, in the US. I'm surprised you even found it for purchase. Was it on the US Amazon site or a foreign version? Got a link? I was interested in a Hero 2, too, but I could never find it, and now it's getting a little long in the tooth.
Sorry this isn't the answer you wanted. Is it an all right phone overall, though? Reviews were generally favorable.
I don't think there is Lollipop rom for your device.
Hi guys,
any news about lollipop update? Im choosing between Hero 2 and LG G3, but Hero 2 is cheaper for me and it has little bit bigger screen. Any advices please?

This is weird, I looked all over and cannot find any links for original flashing files, not even 4PDA.
But, the rom I ported has no sound (unless you wear headphones), and camera is not working. This was basically just an experiment on trying to port it for first time, but sadly I do not have the device anymore so I won't be able to help much. If you still want to try it, here's the link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/rooting-roms/resurrection-remix-5-8-5-alcatel-t3913051
Meanwhile I'll try to keep looking for the original stock ROM for your device, there has to be something.
I'll let you know if I find anything.
