i recently bought spice mi 270 android phone. it is dual sim ,200mhz cpu, 190mb ram, 271mb rom phone. it comes preloaded with lots of crapware. so i downloaded appdelete application from android market to delete those. at first i rooted the phone with z4root which i got from xda forum. then i start deleting the crapwares. but in mean while i also deleted some systeem apps like launcher , keyboard. i use launcher pro and multiling keyboard so i thought these two were useless. everthing going fine untill today when i factory reset my phone to wipe out other apps and to get clean os. there now phone starts but remain on android setup screen asking for account info then closes itself with force close and there is only blank sceen comes with time and battry bar at the top. as i suspect restoration of launcher and keybord mostly retore phone back to normal. is there any I can recover my phone to Normal.
plz reply....
thank you for patient reading

Hi dude,
Did you resolve your issue?
I'm thinking of buying this phone. Can you post your review about it?
regards,
Sabharish
no i cant solve the issue
no i cant solve the issue
but i get to know that it is not about my removal of applications but android market malware infect it
so i go to customer service center and replace it
now i have new phone
and specially not using market at all
for review
1. good phone
2. moderately responsive
3. remove crap ware with app delete download from net
4. phone becomes super responsive
5.battery life is very less like 1 and 1/2 day with moderate use
6.overall nice phone at price of 4800 rs
u want know anything more message here.
now looking for someone to develop gingerbread rom for this
I too have this phone! find it horribly slow.
does deleting stock crap apps increase the speed? can the touch be made more responsive?
Mi-270
Ya..I'm having this phone for about two weeks now and its great for its price. I guess its the only Android in India for below Rs.5k. The best part of it being that its dual gsm sim and its branded
You need to remove all bloatware like reuters, yahoo stuffs and other apps thats pre-installed in it. Z4root works like a charm.
I'm getting a battery life of around 24 hours and more for normal usage...like half hour of talk, around two hours of wifi browsing and extensive messaging. But the recharging time just amazes me. It recharges from 0% to 90% in less than 40mins!
I've posted some unboxing reviews of the phone.

@k2wl
Have you installed any anti-virus? Recommend if you find anything useful.
no antivirus yet
no i didnt get any descent antivirus for it but now i sideload the apps. removing crap ware from phone although makes phone faster.
now looking for somebody who can cook custom rom for my mi 270.

Hi,
I am also having this phone and I am loving it. Initially it was too slow. But I have just replaced the default launcher with Launcher Pro. And then I disabled the 3d drawer view. That's it. Now it runs very fast and smooth. I have installed
70 other useful applications without any trouble and they are running good.
I have routed the phone. The running applications are
1. Adobe reader
2. Picsel office
3. Latest yahoo messenger with video chat
4. QQ player
4. QR droid
5. Player Pro
6. Quick boot
7. AK notepad
8. And Explorer
9. root explorer
10. Barnacle WiFi Tether
11. Better terminal
12. Astro File Manager
13. Cachemate
14. Coincise Dictionary
15. Dolphin browser
16. Opera Mini
17. Engadget
18. Evernote
19. Gaia GPS
20. GPS hood
21. LP Sense
22. Yahoo Mail
23. IM+
24. Fring
26. Ebuddy
27. Kindle
28. Mayabi keyboard for Bangla Typing
29. Touch input
30. Photoid pro
31. Real Player
32. Winamp
33. Sktech pad
34. Snaptu
35. Task Manager
36. Titanium Back up pro
37. Xpiano
38. z4 (for rooting the phone)
and many more.....
The only thing that I could not connect my phone through ADB. I have installed the driver. Windows can see my ADB device . But adb can not see my device.
Can you please tell me how did you connect through adb? If you can still boot into recovery then u can flash your rom also. You need to get the official rom because I did not find any patched rom for dual sim over the net.
Thanks

no adb
no i cant connect it through adb but u can use mobiledit to connect it to PC and use it as a PC suit
works perfectly
as for recovery mode
press menu and home button together then press power button u reach recovery mode
press home button and return button together then press power button u get factory testing mode
still cant figure out the adb connection
come on Google improve Ur OS to connect to PC
also they should bring common PC suit for all androids
I find the wifi to be very weak too! anybody else face the same issue?
Thanks a lot k2wl for sharing your experience. Still I could not figure out the ADB . One more frustrating fact is that there is no custom ROM available for dual sim android. Even there is no good dialer for dual sim android................
Hi , k2wl
I have bricked my Mi-270 . I replaced a system library with a modified one for installing DSP manager. Now it is not booting. I need to connect through ADB to restore the original system library. I cant connect with ADB... How did u solve your problem?? Did you service it ?
hi musarraf172
i don't know about what dsp manager do but replacing system library is bad thing to do... and ya i go to service center and get my mi-270 replaced....
just go service center tell them phone is not booting up since morning...u switch off it off yesterday night & now it's not booting up. that what i hav done.
alternatively try to boot in factory mode / recovery mode & try to wipe out the user partion
"as for recovery mode
press menu and home button together then press power button u reach recovery mode
press home button and return button together then press power button u get factory testing mode"
bye hope u will find the solution and sorry for replying late.
k2wl
no working adb yet
hi guys i have to inform u that i m giving up hopes of adb working for this phone as i have tried all the methods described on net & this forum
i have tried ubuntu, fedora, slackware
windows 7
windows xp
tried every method available
if u people get adb working plz let me know.
thanks
k2wl
Hi, k2wl
Thanks for your reply. I have already given my phone to service centre for replacement.
For adb my experience is same as with you. I have also tried on ubuntu , windows 7 32 bit as well as 64 bit but no luck.
I have come across over some internet forum that all these cheap Chinese phones are running some modified versions of android and OS images are loaded on ROM by some specific Chinese software.
In one forum , they described the flashing procedure. You need to remove the battery and then connect your phone with a windows based pc. Then you have to install the driver for that particular chinese software. Then you can flash your rom. It was described for some other chinese make dual sim android.
And remember you need to have the spice official rom image coz no other custom rom is available for this model as of now.

k2wl,
What are apps you removed from the rom by appdelete??
it all depends on you... what u like & what u dont like
i recommend u to read http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Barebones for removing the apks
just remember that removing google core apks is risky....
bye take care
k2wl
p.s. - still figuring out adb
musarraf172 did u get ur replacement ???
i got mine replaced on same day.
i have made an interesting observation today.... may be im wrong but here it is
the battery of nokia c6-00 and spice mi-270 have same dimensions and same battery pin outs. so may be c6-00 battery is compatible with our handset mi-270 .
this is just a observation but i think somebody who has access to c6-00 and mi-270 can confirm this plz.
thanx
k2wl
p.s. still no luck for adb
No ADB
Hi k2wl,
Today I got my phone back. I have never seen such worst customer service. I had to write to the MD of spice group. Anyway I got my phone back and it is working .
But still ADB does not work. I will be writing to their service manager .
I will try to get a battery of C6-00 and check the compatibility.
Thanks..

Yes I do agree with you that the wifi is very weak.Install wifi analyzer from the market to find the best position for wifi reception.Connect the headphones to get an improvement in wifi reception.
Have you found the MEID number required to enter into spice club membership form to get 3 months extended warranty ?
musarraf172 - Please give details on how did you disable the 3d drawer veiw and how and what app did you use to root the spice mi-270 phone?

Hey guys ! In a few moments I request you for help me with my w826 (Haier phone), but now I changed for a Nokia and I need your help, again !
I start my search on 2 pm : install Android on my Nokia, but, at last, I think it's impossible. Instead of that, I search how I can install some Android apps (.apk) on Windows Phone ! With a special Spanish Tool or with the Project : Astoria ? Nothing working with me !
With the Spanish Tool, i try to use all the funtionc, nothing...or the "install apk" button work with a pop-up "Installation successfull" but on Home Menu : NOTHING ! ><
And with Astoria (wconnect/adb tools)...
If I try to use it , I must 2 errors ( the last either )
The error code "8" happens after connecting my phone by USB and after putting the pairing code
Or the error code "9" happens where an error after typing " wconnect.exe usb" directly .
Help me I beg you! > < I spent a sleepless night to do it and my eyes burn T_T
If I can really install Android OS tell me ! (And if have can not find me a solution for the 2 tools - if - vsou please)
Hoping to find a solution , good night! \ o

Hello , ant thank you for the interest . I have been searching the internet for days trying to figure out whats up with my phone . I got as a gift from a friend to my young sister , but the phone is stuck on the login screen.
Methods i tried to resolve the issue :
Hold down power volume - and + , and restored factory settings : didn`t work .
Try searching for official android relies for my phone , downloaded tons of different software , in some i had to make a folder : dload , and put the UPDATE,APP in the folder , but when i try to update with the fastboot menu i cant seem to see the update file.
I have downloaded .zip files and try to put them on a new sd card and install them , i can see the zip files but when i try to install them it says : signature verification failed .
I Cannot access my phone using my pc , it simply does not find it as a device . So if there is a solution to all of my problems , i will try to send a virtual beer to everyone
