About The rom and developers : The whole project of making a good rom is initiated by members of gizmo lord and Untold Tips blog . Pantech Burst being a device with low dev support needed atleast a rom which is a lot better than stock . Unfortunately this is the only rom with much modifications done and being updated again and again .

Few Notes / Guide on Swap Partitioning
Since Ujjwal forgot to Reserve posts, he ran out of space. So I'm posting this on behalf of him:
Few Notes on rom :
There are 2 launchers . One stock (certainly themed) and 1 jelly bean launcher .
-Stock launcher is being mentioned in loopy smoothness tweak . though I feel Jb launcher will be as smooth as stock also .
Swap needs to be done by the user . It will act as a virtual memory . Refer to tutorial below for having a swap partition .
If you face issues like phone stopped working in AOSP RC8 than please switch to RC7 as Thats the most I had pushed . I failed to fix that .
After the first boot wait a few seconds . Let the phone do some necessary things in first startup . After 30 seconds almost you can use it .
To contribute to rom download the open source package . It contains all modification I did to rom . For questions and everything consult this thread HERE .
To remove ad blocking host file please delete /system/etc/hosts
NEVER UPDATE THE HOLO LOCKER !!! . Else you'll loose the AOSP lockscreen .
For the pie you see in screenshot , download and install this app . This app can't be used as a system app so you have to install it . DOWNLOAD THREAD .

[GUIDE] HOW TO ENABLE SWAP
-After a successful flash and reboot Go into recovery again .
-Go to ADVANCE .
-Select Partition ext-SD card . Remember !! Don't partition the SD card . You have to partition ext-SD . Partitioning the SD card will result in hard brick . Remember EXT-SD card is to be partitioned .
-Select 64mb or 128mb not more than it .
-Touch twice it will show done .
-Reboot into phone now .
-Download this app .
-Just press the on button . And when you see everything ok . Close the app .
REMEMBER : Whenever you connect your Phone to PC you need to go into that app and select off . Else phone will not mount .

i got a pantech burst. i will give it a try. i have not yet rooted it..
thanks for the rom. hopefully there will be more ROMS for this phone.

Nice Work

I've tried your ROM twice so far and each time I am missing the Phone and the Peoples (Contacts) apps. I reverted back to a backup I made before I tried your ROM though. Not sure why those apps are missing. I did think that your ROM seemed very smooth though.

Yup. Same thing happened to me ttoo. I had to go back to stock rom. Also its missing Microsoft Exchange support.
I use two other apps by ritesh sahu from Google market. Call log restore and sms restore. On this rom those apps will not read the backup xml files. But same xml files works fine on the stock rom. Hopefully its a minor bug you can fix. Again thanks for a bloat free rom. I will tray again.

Same here, missing the Phone and Contacts apps also felt the ROM pretty smooth.

Okay let me clear few things :-
1. For those who are missing the contacts and the phone app :- This happened with me also . But the link i uploaded Always worked for me . I always flash rom twice before uploading . I won't be giving anyone a bad things . . Theres something bad with phone and contacts itself . Somehow i made them work . They will work like a charm . And if they aren't working than Flash the patch i'm giving . That will revert stock phone and contacts back . Rom will be buttery smooth . trust me .

sorry for any issues you are suffering . wait 4-5 hours more . I'll give the fix package .

It's cool bro, I'm just reporting. Now flashed version 1.2 (found the link in "other" forum) and everything works great, just having a little problem with Whatsapp, seems like I can't verify my phone number with them (maybe not ROM related). Anyways, will stick with your ROM. Thanks for your work. :highfive:

Than you please download gizmolord 2.0 B . That has been fixed 3 hours ago . 2.0 A is 98% done . 5 minutes more for 2.0 A . But my recomendation for you is download 2.0 B , becuase that will give no issues just have to compromise with stock phone n contacts look :/ .

All links are up now Happy flashing ^_^ .

How did you to both get past this issue to get the ASOP phone and contacts to work? I have tried both 1.0 and 1.2 numerous times, each time it is missing those apps. I am downloading 2.0B right now just so I can use this ROM and still be able to use the phone. Would like to be able to use the ASOP apps though.

see what i actually did is deleted contacts.apk , contactsprovider.apk . Than replaced them with AOSP rom one . ( I used from F1-galaxy for S2 ) . Than when i boot the phone i get error contacts storage error : / I got pi**ed off by that . Than i investigated a lot and what i did to solve problem is deleted syncmlserivce.apk ,syncmlclient.apk , syncmlprovider.apk , /framework/com.....syncmlshared.jar and deleted /etc/permissions/com...syncmlshared.xml . Than It worked for me . When i edit any file ! Any file ! I get missing phone and contacts in rom also . Most of my time i get missing phone n contacts in rom . I build many times debug many times and upload only the one i get phone and contacts in every flash . All roms are kinda perfect for me , except 1.2 . But i get phone and contacts everytime . I flashed my device 3-3 times completely . Fully new flash . And got phone n contact everytime that one rom i uploaded only . If you are not getting i recommend to experiment yourself inside the phone itself . I'm attaching the contacts and contactsprovider.apk from f1 galaxy S2 at&t rom . You delete the files from es file manager and than paste those .change permission rw-r-r if worked well If not i'm kinda helpless . Even i'm using Variant B because I need call log . Which sometimes we don't get in variant A :/ also we get that error phone stopped working after disconnect of the call . The rom works like charm and phone and contacts too sometimes it behaves weird just :/
/sorry for bad english

Im having trouble moving apps to media storage. App2sd and link2sd didnt do the trick. Wiped dalvik, did factory reset, even wiped the internal media storage with no luck. Any time i tried to move an app it wouldnt let me. This is a deal breaker for me since i have a lot of apps(Mostly games for my daughters) which are quite heavy. If it helps i flashed directly from estabien's 3.1 rom. I really wanted to test this rom out, I like the customization you did to it, guess ill have to wait till i can sort this out.

[08Mar]Long Camera Picture Image Names
On some ICS ROMs the images file names are kinda long and weird: IMAG0207-1330595925228.jpg
If you navigate to data/data/com.android.camera/shared prefs you'll see a file named com.android.camera_preferences.xml.
In this file you can adjust some setting and in oneder to have the correct file naming back I needed to change the numbers in line: <string name="counter_imagefolder">225</string>.
Adjust this, reboot and the filenames became normal again.
Thanks to BioTecK for the fix.

[25Jan]ROM Based on android 4.0.3 Wont Boot Ever
Make sure you've flashed the latest firmware and HBOOT (1.23) this is required for the latest Android version ROMs to function. I highly recommend you make your phone superCID to save you getting half way through the update and being warned "incorrect CID / MID" See Mike1986's firmware thread HERE. For more info see start of this post. If your using a Sense 3.6 based rom you'll need the latest firmware which is based on HBOOT 1.27. Have a good read of Mike's thread for info.
[25Jan]Sense 3.6 Browser flicker
If your fed up with the disco effect of the new browser included in Sense 3.6 check This Post out for a fix. Its basically downgrading the browser to fix. I'll make a flashable version a little later. Thanks to rddocke for the fix and thanks for joaquinfernandezcarvajal for finding the post for me!
For flashable version of this fix Sense 3.6 Browser Patch,
to remove Remove Sense 3.6 Browser Patch. Thanks to dfwcomputer for making flashable version of this.
[25Jan]Apps and games owned by this account will appear here error
If your getting this error in the market check out joaquinfernandezcarvajal's post HERE.
[25Jan]Update - Firmware
Yes more firmware is out for the newest leak which is again based on Android 4.0.3 but this time its Sense 3.6. The latest firmware package is required for Sense 3.6 ROMs to work, if you dont have it, it wont boot! check out Mike's Firmware thread for this new firmware based on HBOOT 1.27.
So in Summary:
Android 4.0.1 ROMs need HBOOT 1.20
Android 4.0.3 Sense 3.5 ROMs need HBOOT 1.23 (firmware package 3.12)
Android 4.0.3 Sense 3.6 ROMs need HBOOT 1.27 (firmware package 3.24)
Note its not just HBOOT thats updated in the firmware.
Hope this makes sense, please feel free to ask if your not sure. a lot of into there!
For the love of god check MD5's of the firmware before flashing!!
[10Jan]Wi-Fi Teather Doesnt Work
This is a work around to get the function working.
Downloaded barnacle wifi tether from the market, go into settings and select skip wpa_supplicant. This should then let it work. Thanks to coolkid893 for the fix. Seems to only work as ad-hoc..
[09Jan]Help my HBOOT says **Locked** when I updated to the new firmware
Ignore it, its fine, your still S-off and the bootloader is still unlocked. The only thing thats locked with the new firmware is the ability to perform advanced fastboot commands so flashing splash screens, pushing a radio. It wont affect most normal users, so no need to worry
[09Jan]T-MobileUS Wi-fi Calling Patch
Patch to fix wi-fi calling for T-mobile customers. Zip is for ARHD ROM but there are instructions in the post for how to make it for other roms. Thanks to casper200519 for creating this fix.
Post is HERE.
[09Jan]Wi-Fi Sleep Policy
Seems to be a bug where the Wi-Fi sleep policy settings are reversed. Selecting "Never" sets you to "Always", selecting "Always" sets you to "Never". No fix for this but something to be aware of. Thanks to PaulGiz for pointing this out. This doesnt seem to be the case for French phones. thanks yepayepa for the extra info on this.
[09Jan]Turning on Wi-Fi gives an error after flashing hacked Kernel
This seems to happen if you flash the 4.0.1 kernel on a 4.0.3 ROM, make sure you've flashed the correct kernel for your ROM base and cleared both cache and dalivk after flashing.
[07Jan]Update - Firmware
New android leak 4.0.3 is now on the forums. Along with this there is a new firmware (including hboot 1.23) and new radio (11.65.3504.00U_11.19.3504.29_2) you must have the new firmware package to use android 4.0.3 ROMs, if they wont boot thats your problem. All other info above still stands, just a newer hboot and radio.
If you dont want to be SuperCID flash Mike's Latest ICS Firmware (No need to SuperCID)<-- that package allows most CIDs to flash without having to Super CID your phone. Big thanks to Kohr-Ah for putting together the huge list!
[07Jan]Can I use a custom kernel to OC?
All Gingerbread customer kernels dont work.
ICS Hex edited kernels to allow faster GPU and 1.5GHz on non-XE phones.
See the thread HERE thanks to SebastianFM for this!
[07Jan]Contact pictures dont all download from facebook etc
See HERE for a fix which seems to work perfectly. details for new rom installs and if your already setup and still having issues. thanks to wmoore and lee1019 for the fix.
[04Jan]General Speed / FC Fix
In the leaked RUU was other firmware for various phone partitions which after flashing has been reported that it improves general phone speed and stability. The firmware was extracted form the RUU and uploaded HERE. thanks to Mike1986 for this. The firmware here will also update your radio to the latest (11.59.3504.00U_11.16.3504.16) you will need to be superCID to flash this so make sure you are first. Info on how to superCID HERE. Please read through the thread to make sure you unerstand whats your flashing and ask if u dont know before u flash. This will update your HBOOT to 1.20 and it will read "locked" on the HBOOT screen but panic not, your still S-off, you just wont be able to use advanced fastboot commands unless u downgrade to HBOOT 1.17 HERE, however HBOOT 1.20 is needed for stable use of the latest radio. This is a onetime thing, you can flash and thats it, changing ROM wont change the firmware.

[30Dec]Fix Unable to set wallpaper / find photos in gallery
to fix this do the following:
1) boot into recovery
2) go to tools and do fix permissions
3) again in tools select file system check
(Note this is using 4ext recovery - not sure how to do it in CWM)
reboot and that should fix it..
4) if you still have problems try updating the super user bineries in the SU app under settings.
5) still having problems reboot into recovery and try another fix permissions
6) still problems, clear data for music and galery in app manager.
7) still not getting anywhere install 3D Gallery from the market, this has solved it for some. Thanks for deem1 for the tip.

thanks to denis111 for this fix.
[30Dec]General SD card problems
If your getting general slow SD card, issues with content on there being read, backup the importent stuff like photos etc and format SD card, seems the old android files on SD card may be messing things up. thanks orihuri for the tip.
If this didnt help and your still having prolems with slow SD card speeds download sd booster from the market and set the cache to 3000+ thanks to lws803 for the tip.
[30Dec]Wallpaper FC loop
It happens when you place a 3rd party app on the bottom dock. The Wallpaper that force closing is the lock screen, if you change to the weather lockscreen that will start FCing as well. Unfortunately, I don't know of a way to fix it, only how to prevent it.
Thanks to groovechild for the info.
[30Dec]Changing lock screen shortcut apps
Well you cant, sort of, the lock screen aps reflect the apps shortcuts you have on the bottom of the homescreen, change them and you'll updat the lockscreen apps.
[30Dec]My phone isnt booting after first flashing the new ROM
First boot does take bloody ages, if you get to like 20/30 mins pull the battery and it will boot straight away, seems to be getting stuck for some people. for most when it works its 5/10 mins for first boot..
[30Dec]How to force Hardware Acceleration
1) settings
2) devolp option
3) tick force GPU rendering
However before u go forcing it on read THIS Ive seen it cause some issues in a couple of my apps.. thanks Azkabor for highlighting this.
[30Dec]Im getting terrible signal
Make sure you either flash the radio recomended by the ROM developer or if your using a different radio, flash the matched RIL file.
Check out mf2112's fantastic Radio / RIL Thread for a guide and all the files you'll need. Find it HERE.
[30Dec]After going into power saving for low battery my buttons dont vibrate!
seems sometimes u have to re-enable this after the power save turns it off, annoying i know, its located in the strangest place:
1) settings
2) sound settings
3) vibrate feedback - tick it!
[30Dec]The Market isnt working
If you're having problems downloading from the market on first boot, restarting the phone should sort it out.
thanks to mbatson for tip.
[30Dec]Im really in the mood for some ICS wallpapers, what should i do?

thanks to AGunz82 for this solution.
[30Dec]Reduce Lag - Force CPU1 Online
1) Install system tuner from marker
2) open system tuner
3) tweaks - cpu - boot settings - active tweaks - force all cpus online - on boot completed
4) now reboot and enjoy the faster experience
Thanks to stroobach.
This will cause more of a battery drain, might not be a big drain though. report any issues.
To make things smoother, see the tips in this post seems to help make things really smooth, some tips for editing your build.prop. thanks to lyrical1278 for the info.
[30Dec]Some apps dont work
If your problem is some apps look like THIS try disabling force GPU acceleration, that should fix it.
[30Dec]Small MMS
This is a possible fix, V2 seems to solve it for some, let me know more feedback.
Note this is only for people in USA on Sensation 4G
thanks schoei1& djdant for the info.
Download and flash THIS
If your no in USA or your still having small MMS try THIS thanks djdant for finding this.
[30Dec]MMS wont send on Stock AOSP Messaging App
Only found a fix for TMobile people now but i'll have a look at whats done and see if i can make a flashable zip for all.
See HERE thanks to Ducter for figuring this out.
To use, go to the market and download APN Back up restore, create a folder on your sd called ApnBackupRestore exactly as typed. Unzip the attached xml into that directory, start the app and delete apns, then restore using the one provided, reboot and enjoy MMS, sometimes it may take like a minute to send, but it does.
- Someone please let me know if this works for non t-mobile people
- Further fix for T-Mobile people see HEREthanks to Shagman68 (cant find the original post)
[30Dec]Getting FC in Security Settings
If you have an exchange account that requires a Device Admin and use a pin it seems once removed, the security settings worked without a problem. Its a workaround at least, thanks cortez.i for this.
[30Dec]Voice Search Not Working
Try HERE Not tested yet so let me know.
Thanks to lws803
[30Dec]Im using the stock ICS launcher and now i cant add widgets
You can add widgets to the default ics launcher by going into your apps draw and then click on widgets.
You can now place widgets from here onto the launcher.
[30Dec]APM for ICS
Thanks to the RCMix Team, this is a work in progress from their ICS ROM Thread. Get it HERE. Flash in recovery, clear cache and dalvik. May not work on 4.0.3.
[30Dec]Improve scrolling
To improve the scrolling in ICS do the following:
Go to your build.prop, edit the following strings to read as follows:
Code:
# Increase overall touch responsiveness
windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=150
debug.performance.tuning=1
video.accelerate.hw=1
thanks to rddocke for this info.
Further note - Sense 3.6 based ROMs seem to have this fixed.
Known Bugs (Updated for 4.0.3 ROMs)
These are bugs I cant find a fix for yet:
- Something still up with Wi-Fi some not getting any signal
- issues with gallery for some even with all tips above
- music player FC'ing for some <--Fixed in Sense 3.6
- Going into security in settings give FC <--Fixed in Sense 3.6
- Small MMS
- UOT Kitchen mods dont work and the kitchen cant cook new ones (yet)
- Bluetooth Won't allow PAB Access, nor prompt for it, generally seems to be a bit hit and miss
- Browser Bookmarks do not work - Causes FC.
- Bookmark widget has bookmarks but will not create thumbnails
- Cant add app through personalize app, work around by using long press from app draw.
- Wi-Fi hotspot doesnt work, will turn on but thats it, wont give IP address to clients.
- Premium Navigation doesnt work.
- Exchange sync for hotmail (and maybe others) doesnt keep some custom settings e.g update schedule and download past mail.
- Stock and 1.5GHz kernels both seem to be a tad buggy, some reboots. Seems to be mainly when CPU1 comes online when phone is really working hard! Maybe fixed in later hacked kernels.
-HTC Sync app is now present and some aspects work, but calender doesn't
- Error when restoring contacts from SD card "Failed to parse Vcard for unexpected reason(File ended during parsing BASE 64 binary)"
- When I try to take a photo with an effect, the camera takes the picture, but then FC's. And the picture doesn't get saved in the gallery.
- Skype doesnt work for video calling, you can see them but they get a green screen. Audio is fine.
- Blue Hue on Sense 3.6 using Acer manufactured screen. See HERE for info.
ICS Mods
Please note that Themes seem to be a bit picky, Android 4.0.1 will only work on 4.0.1. Android 4.0.3, Sense 3.5 will only work on that base. Sense 3.6 seems to again need something specific.

Stock ICS AOSP Apps
(Open Beta)
Version 4.4
(28Jan12) - Sense 3.6 compatable​
Ok This is a little mod myself and Mox123 have been working on to allow any ROM to be turned into AOSP, so you keep the rom you love but without all the HTC applications, its basically a way of de-sensing your ROM.
Once things are working fine and i understnad what goes with what im planning on making seperate packs so you can flash stock messaging app, or stock calendar etc etc.
Im not responsible if your house blows up, your cheese goes mouldy or anything else if you flash this..
Note this is only for use on ICS 4.0.3 Sense 3.6 builds, dont try and flash it on gingerbread or your phone wont boot and i wont be impreseed..
What you Get
- ICS Stock Theme (thanks to Shnizlon)
- Messaging App
- Dialer
- Launcher
- Contacts app
- Gallery
- Music app
- Email app

- Lockscreen
*Note this does change lockscreen to stock and theres 1 bug, you have to unlock to answer a call If you want HTC lockscreen back i'll add a zip to get it back. Attached to this post.
A Possible fix to unlock to answer is to install full screen caller id from the market which works with stock lock screen both come with lite or a free trial let me know if this fixes it. thanks payneardo for the info.
**For browser to work when you first boot, go to manage apps and clear the data from the browser**
Screen shots are HERE

Bugs

Massie thanks to Mox123
Hes done an amazing job on this on getting this off the ground.
DOWNLOAD LINK​
Flash in recovery,
Clear cache
thats about it!
would like to hear some feedback!
If you already installed an earlier version should be fine just to flash this over it.
Please note the first boot will be laggy while things unpack, give it a moment to get going!
If you flash and dont like it, ive made a flashable zip to remove the mod and take you back to stock HTC ICS build {Coming Soon} for now if you want to remove the mod, reflash the original rom you were on when you applied the mod and it will remove it for u but keep your data.

that seems to have fixed it for most, after doing all above, reboot and try and do another fix permissions (seems to take longer)
if that doesnt work, try and take a photo and see if it can read that, just to make sure it can read your SD card ok.
otherwise backup and re-format SD card..

yes it will give stock launcher, i cant do any screen shots at the moment cos im at work, but it is just the normal ICS launcher, lockscreen is sense still.
there is a no sense script you can flash to remove all sense things, but i havent tested it on ICS yet..
i installed no-sense script after i installed your flash file]]and it works, the lock screen is changed to default android one
only thinkg i need now is the default ics camera and people app, anyway i can get this?
Looks like you tried all the ICS roms
Can you tell me which one is modable with UOT?

Been reports that after running no-sense script it causes picture gallery loss? Verification?
gallery is working fine
you may need to fix permissions in your recovery under recovery tools option
really looking to get the stock call, people and camera app is this possible?
If i remove Sense, can i just reflash my ROM to get it back?

How long did you leave it? Some boots can take 10 minutes. I personally haven't tested this myself so can't comment, but maybe someone else has had better luck...

I told in the OP that I am not a super dev and also I told that I don't have the handset -__- so how on Earth should I test it ?! or , wait , I may have found the problem !

Goophone I5 Lite - [Q] & [A] and Development Area

Hi everyone,
I've just created this thread to merge all the goophone i5 information in just one post. This way it will be easier to all goophone i5 users to post doubts answers and eventual software updates/ROMS.
I've both of goophones (Y5 and I5) and i'm happy with them.
But there are some problems with goophone i5 stock software.
Problems detected on the stock rom that need a fix
- Can't recieve or send MMS. FIXED
- 3G network and Data Connection don't work. FIXED - See Below
- Google apps can be installed. Google play won't download apps (Error 906 - com.google.process.gapps stoped). FIXED - See Below
- Not all language strings are translated. English is ok.FIXED
- Some of stock apps are in Chinese (Weather, Maps, App Store) FIXED - Just delete the APKS from system/app
- Some apps are there just there to fill the launcher. They don't have any utility (Passbook, Games Center, etc). But they are removable in system/apps/ FIXED
- Can't delete contacts. You just can add or import existent Vcard. If you press cancel the apk will give you an error and crash. FIXED - Settings -> Email, Contacts, Calendar -> Delete All Contacts
- When you delete call history the apk will give you an error and crash. But the history will be deleted. FIXED
- When you change the language, the apk will give you an error. But the language will be changed. FIXED
- Poor contact image quality during phone call. The image is loaded but have a awful quality. FIXED
- When you recieve a message it will be kept on the lock screen, but it only shows the number not the name of the person who sent it to you. FIX NEEDED
- Sometimes when you slide it to silence using the Mute Button the software will get crazy and will change the profile from mute to sound in a loop. FIXED on the last ROM
- Can't do video calls. There is no option to make it and when you recieve one, the phone won't let you answer it and it will crash the phonecall.FIXED

Goophone I5 with H2000+ Rom
Hi,
wow sounds great but I killed my pre-installed rom because of wrong SU-rooting...
I'm looking for a complete new rom which is fully Google-ready (GApps, Market,...).
Until now I have the rom from the H2000+ installed but there are problems with the WIFI & Bluetooth connection.
(more I didn't test for now)
So when I try to start one of them activating, the connection will try to do something... but the only thing what happens is that the LED-Flash starts to blink...
-> That means.... sh... I can't do anything...
I also tried to flash the H9300+ rom but nothing happens during boot -> also back for now to H2000+ waiting for a new Rom for I5.
Or has anybody an idea, which Phone has near the same components and an Android-Rom exists?
Thank's for the info's!
Greetings, Svehan

Root I5

Hi everyone,
I've just created this thread to merge all the goophone i5 information in just one post. This way it will be easier to all goophones i5 users to post doubts answeres and eventual software updates and ROMS.
I've both of goophones (Y5 and I5) and i'm happy with them.
But there are some problems with goophone i5 stock software.
Problems detected on the stock rom that need a fix
- Can't recieve or send MMS.
- 3G network don't work.
- Google apps can be installed. Google play won't download apps (Error 906 - com.google.process.gapps stoped). The rest is ok.
- Not all language strings are translated. English is ok.
- Some of stock apps are in Chinese (Weather, Maps, etc)
- Some apps are there just there to fill the launcher. They don't have any utility (Passbook, Games Center, etc). But they are removable in system/apps/
- Can't delete contacts. You just can add or import existent Vcard. If you press cancel the apk will give you an error and crash.
- When you delete call history the apk will give you an error and close. But the history will be deleted.
- When you change the language, the apk will give you an error. But the language will be changed.
- Poor contact image quality during phone call. The image is loaded but have a awful quality.
- When you recieve a message it will be kept on the lock screen, but it only shows the number not the name of the person who sent it to you.
- Sometimes when you slide it to silence using the Mute Button the software will get crazy and will change the profile from mute to sound in a loop.
- Can't do video calls. There is no option to make it and when you recieve one, the phone won't let you answer it and it will crash the phonecall.
Useful information to all goohpone users
Access to the Factory Hardware test
- Power off the phone
- Press Power Button + Volume up [+]
This phone comes rooted from factory so, if you want to have access to the clockworkmod:
- Power off the phone
- Press Power Button + Volume down [-]
The clockworkmod is in chinese but is easy to understand.
1- Reboot System now
2- Install zip from sd card
3 - Wipe data / Factory Reset
4 - Wipe Cache
Last - Advanced (To wipe battery stats and dalvik cache)
How to change boot logo to Apple logo
Go to the system/media and you'll find 4 zip files with name bootanimation.zip, shutdownanimation.zip, bootanimationIphone.zip and shutdownanimationIphone.zip
Just rename the original ones to bootanimationGP.zip and shutdownanimationGP.zip and delete the word Iphone from the others.
How to install google apps
Unzip the file Gapps-goophonei5.zip attached to this post.
Copy all the files from the folder to system/app/. Then reboot the phone.
The play store will not work. Probably it will open and you should be able to search for applications. But when you press install, the playstore will crash and will give you an error (com.google.process.gapps stoped) Unable to download the requested file - Error 906.
In the other file that is attached (goophonei5-apps.zip) to this post are some of apps that you might need.
The apps are:
- Youtube with Apple iOS logo
- iWeather - Translated weather apk
- Aptdoide - For the ones who want to install apk's and can't use Playstore
- Rebooter - A nice program to reboot your phone (The same goophone Y5 has)
i hope this information helped you out!

What exact dimension does the i5 have? Is it 1:1 like the iphone 5? I'm considering buying a goophone but there is also an alternative called zophone which claims to be an exact iphone copy dimension wise.
Regarding 3G: the phone supports wcdma 850/2100, maybe your carrier isn't compatible?

Hi!
The goophone is exactly the same size that iphone 5, the color is exactly the same.
the zophone if i were you, i didn't buy it. It has a lot of problems. Some websites are considering about take it out of selling.
Be sure that you buy a goophone. Goophone I5 has more support. And it's better. It has problems on the software, but i hope that they develop a new rom soon in order to fix some bugs of it.
For the previous version (Goophone Y5) there are some ROMS that improved the phone performance. So i think that on this one there will be much more considering the hardware
Can you upload the entire backup of the rom .zip of the goophone i5?
Thanks in advance.

All you need to do is to Wipe Data / Factory Reset and the stock software willl be replaced by your current rom.
Don't forget to wipe cache and dalvik cache after or before the data wipe.

Hi I'm back again...
Thank's all for the Help!
So I tried and tried and tried and at least I installed the Rom from the video at my second post of this thread.
I didn't really know where I could find the Rom (from the video and the orig one) because I had the same problem as tancrazio.
But when you watch the video and pause it when the guy selects the rom - just use google and search and you will find the Rom on some chinese sides.
(Orig: goophone-i5-0107-f-001.zip, Video: goophonei5-0123-f.zip).
Now... all is fine exept Calendar... This one crashes every time, when the system tries to sync it whith the Google-Account.
Maybe I'll deactivate the Loader and use Apex - the Def is sooooooo slow and Apex is much faster and you also have more settings for the Home-Screen.
(have a llok also onto this fine video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WC_LgprgsE - Thanks to colonelzap)
...... that's all for now from my side...
Looking for getting Calendar to work and a better Home-Screen....
Cu, Svehan
I was so ready to pull the trigger on this, but the rom seems half baked. I don't suppose any devs have mentioned getting one of these, would be great to get CM10 running on this.
Hi guys
I hope can help me. I have the zophone i5 and it will not let me get into recovery mode. I can get into the screen where it says recovery mode with the apply logo and it gets stuck and thats it.
Another issue was I thought it might have been the phone so I reset it via factory mode but it is the same and I have lost the apple unlock screen and the slide to power off. I have tried to find what add they were using on my phone but cant seem to find it, does anyone know what its called?
Thanks

Yes the stock rom is halfe baked..but as goophone y5 there will be software updates and new roms...it's just a matter of time
The phone hardware is very good, the only cons that i've to make to this phone is the current software, but oh well, you know, wich phone does not have bugs when it is released?
@Manuxo: How did you fix the Calendar-Sync-Problem?
I still only need to get rid of this problem to get "Online" the phone for my girlfriend...
THX!

3G fix apps
Hi ColonelZAp.
That rom already bring installed all the apps that you need to fix your apn settings.
For that you just need another android phone with the same apks installed, then you just need to:
-Set up your apn settings on your android phone
- Use the APN backup & restore to get the XML file
- Copy that file to the folder ApnBackupRestore present on your SD card.
- Make APN Backup & Restore as System App with titanium backup
- Restore the APN settings
- And that's it.
I've tried this on a few phones and it worked on all.
On my personal goophone i5 i already have 3G network Fixed.
About the lockscreen this ROM comes already with that bug fixed.
Regards
Thanks for this!
APN settings not working for me despite using titanium and apn backup plus as i have also written in another thread, I have no service either. Can anyone help please?

IF you have a problem with wifi and SIM connection maybe you don't have a genuine goophone.
If it don't work you have a different firmware, so, this rom will not work on your phone.
This ROM is just for Goophone I5 and not for other copies like Zophone, Hero, etc.
hello
Slide to unlock Fixed bug in French language is also set as the big problem comes not from the rom but language translation
Could someone else just upload their apn backup xml file? Would that work?
I don't have another android phone, so this is my only other real option.
H2000 works in this rom +?

Hello there,
I have recently purchased a Goophone I5 but it came with Chinese stuff. Is there a step by step instruction for first flashing the CWM. I would also need step by step instructions for the Gi5 ROM v1.0. I'm a novice and following the instructions above I keep getting an error message as follows "E: signature verification failed", and "Installation aborted". This happens with both the zip files that I have downloaded from the links in your post. Please help. Thanks.

Hi, the recovery.img does not seem to work for me, any help?
The apn xml file that APN Backup & Restore creates, does it have to be for the same carrier we use?
I'd like to know because my beddeh has an android phone that he agreed to let me use to create a backup file, however, he uses another carrier and not Rogers. Will this matter, or will it still work?
Can't " install " ROM
Hello,
I just bought a Goophone i5. Seems great for the moment, except chinese aps of course. Want to remove them, found this post. I dowloaded the ROM in the link above, put it on the phone (using usb storage). Rebooted the phone in recovery mode as explained (power button + Vol - button).
I can see the options & navigate in them, but i can't choose any of them ! I tried using mute/unmute, power button, and home button. Nothing is working. How can i proceed please ? Thx in advance for you help.
Edit : Ok i found it, you have to slide right to left on the bottom screen (seems logic when you know it ^_^)

Hello derfusme,
I wrote a lengthy reply to your post as soon as I saw your quandary but it got lost as I was logged out (or timed out).
I was (and still am) in the same boat a couple of days back and I'm glad you were able to figure out. I figured this out by accident and it was the only aha moment from the time I got this phone.
I definitely don't want to discourage you but I want to share with you that this moment of joy was short lived. The zip files (neither the ROM or the CWM) did not install. They both failed due to some signature verification error and the install aborted. If you make progress, please share with me on this site as to how you accomplished it. If I figure it out I'll share it here for others in a similar situation.
Good luck.
PS: I also wanted to point out that the Recovery Menu that "Manuxo" has in the original posting is not the same as mine. It has only the following recovery menu items (I'm not a 100% sure, but I think that is what the CWM gets you) ...
- reboot system now
- apply update from sdcard
- apply update from cache
- wipe data/factory reset
- wipe cache partition
- backup user data
- restore user data
Cheers!
Done ! \o/

Hi sidgeekpurchases,
Good news ! I finally managed to solve this. The phone was in fact not rooted at all ! I followed some steps on a youtube channel, search for the user named mayiandjay, watch the " How to root the Goophone i5! One click root! " (there are other usefull videos). Once it was fully rooted, i managed to install a new ROM i found in here (Goophone i5 ROM V1.0). Some bugs are fixed (but i still have the " slide to unclock " bug )
About the CMW, i did not used the one mayiandjay show in his video, because it's all in chinese, I used the CMW from ColonelZap (on the same thread of the ROM V1.0) using the way he (mayiandjay) mentioned (with m44toolbox) and it's working.
The only thing that's not working is the gps, can't get any signal ! Haven't found someone talking about that. Maybe it will be fixed later ?
Well, hope it helps ! Let me know if you have some issues, i'll be glad to help (but with the video on youtube you should be fine)
Cheers.

derfusme,
Thanks for the update and the helpful hints. I followed everything on Video by "MayiandJay" and my phone is definitely rooted. I even have SuperSU Pro v0.98 but I'm still having issues when I try to install the ROM from the recovery menu. I get a signature validation failure. What version of the recovery menu do you have? I think I have the stock version which does not have all the menu options that Manuxo and others have discussed here. I must have tried this a hundred different ways but in the end I come up with the same result. I even have the ROM Manager Premium installed as well.
Please send me a PM with the steps outlined if you don't mind. Thanks.

Re: Goophone i5 Lite ROM v1.0
I used the one in the link above, works fine. I replaced the original one using m44toolbox (explained on the youtube channel's guy). I had the same signature error message when i tried ton install roms. keep going, you'll find the way

Frequently asked questions
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Question 1) Is this Rom Rooted? I do not see SuperSU icon.
Answer: This ROM comes with another Super User software called "KINGROOT" and you will find KingUser icon in rom
Question 2) Icons Missing. After installing new Apps, I do not see new shortcut icons in Application Drawer. How to see them?
Answer: This is known minor issue of Trebuchet (The included Lollipop Launcher) The simple resolution is as follows.
Go to Settings >> All Apps >> Trebuchet >> Force Stop.
Now go back to Launcher and you will see all missing icons appeared.
Question 3) WhatsApp and other apps are not restoring data backup from previous rom. What to do?
This rom does not come with Swapped Memory Partitions. Hence copy WhatsApp folder from External SDCard to Phone Storage. Clear Data of Whatsapp from All Manager. Now it will recognize backup and will restore.
Question 4) Why Gmail and other Google apps are not syncing data?
This rom lacks GPS fix at this moment hence Google fails to get location. Just go in Settings and disable Location (GPS). Now GMail and other Google apps will start syncing
Question 5) Rarely or Occasionally Phone Network drops for few seconds.
Inherited Issue from CM 12.1. If this is just after Flashing rom then, simply Disable Location and Reboot. Otherwise just enable Airplane Mode and disable it. Network will be stable.
Question 6) GPS / NFC / FingerPrint is not working!
Yes I know! Wait for some time for the fix.
Question 6) NFC and FingerPrint Features are not working!
The port version of CM 12.1 I selected for Auxus Note does not have FingerPrint scanner feature. Hence it can not be added. NFC is disabled for some technical issues but I am sure you do not need both features for the sake of CyanogenMod 12.1 Porting CM for Dual Sim MediaTek devices is not easy task. It takes months of work hence I thought these are not worth wasting time which may delay project for another 2/3 months. Hope you understand. Thanks !
Question 7) After flashing your rom my IMEI numbers are lost and phone lost its network. How to restore my IMEI numbers of phone?
Due to mismatch in Radio files mismatched between the roms of two different chipsets, you may lose IMEI on some roms after flashing. Do not panic or worry, it can be restored easily. Remember for DUAL SIM phone you need to restore both IMEI numbers, which are found on your Invoice (Bill), Product Box or below Battery)
METHOD 1) Restore your own IMEI numbers with this amazing APP. Read warning carefully.
WARNING: DO NOT SHARE YOUR IMEI WITH ANYONE ELSE. Remember, using FALSE IMEI numbers is illegal in any country and it can put you in JAIL. These days they are tracing culprits for terrorism threats. So please use this app to restore your own IMEI only.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cryptotel.chamelephon&hl=en
METHOD 2)
Restoring NVRAM BACKUP taken with MTKDROID TOOLS which you can flash with SPFT Flashing tool.
a) Watch this video to know how to take backup of NVRAM of a working STOCK ROM with the help of MTKDROID Tools. You must know that NVRAM backup file stores your own IMEI Number. Do Not share it with anyone else. They will restore their phone with your IMEI number and will put you in trouble.
_____ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tttvKlWTwc
.
b) When IMEI is lost flash this only single entry of NVRAM with SPFlash tools
WARNING: DO NOT SHARE YOUR NVRAM FILE WITH ANYONE ELSE. It stores your IMEI Number.
Separate XDA Link:
Question 8) Can I play heavy Games on this Rom? (Why some games run slow on this rom?)
The rom in optimized for less battery drain hence CPU is generally in PowerSave mode or Balanced Mode.
This setting is in Settings >>> Battery >>> Battery Mode >>> ???
Gamers should change Battery Mode to PERFORMANCE mode while playing games to get full power of CPU.
After playing games changing battery mode back to BALANCED mode or POWERSAVE mode will be best idea.
Question 9) Sometimes phone lags.
This is a known issue in Beta 12 (first release) still WIP. The quick workaround is reboot the phone in Recovery Mode and clear Dalvik Cache and Cache one a day in middle of a day.
Question 10) Sometime rare camera do not work. Camera keeps showing front camera and no option to change back to rare.
This is known issue and quick workaround is as follows.
Settings >>> Apps >>> All >>> Camera >>> Clear Data and Remove Battery then switch on. Camera should work now.
One more workaround is restart the phone but if still does not work then reboot the phone in Recovery Mode and clear Dalvik Cache and Cache one a day in middle of a day.
Question 11) Flash icon disappeared in camera and can not use flash.
Settings >>> Apps >>> All >>> Camera >>> Clear Data and Remove Battery then switch on. Camera should work now.
Question 12) Sometimes Network is dropped and does not comes back.
This is fixed in BETA 15 but if you still experience it just enable Airplace mode and again disable it. This may happen frequently in remote locations (rural areas or areas with weak network)
Question 13) Battery 1% problem . Battery was charged a lot, but after rebooting or returning from Recovery mode the battery started showing 1%.
This is known battery synchronization bug in previous version of Recovery. If you are on Version 2 of my TWRP 2.7.1.0 you may not have this problem.
But even if you are on latest recovery and you get this 1% battery issue, then do a simple solution.
Workaround (a) Connect Charging cable to charge phone, Power Off and Power On Normally without removing power cable. Works!
Workaround (b) If above does not work, then Start phone in recovery (twrp) mode, plug in power cable and keeping the power cable connected, restart the phone in normal mode (also called system mode, Reboot to System).
The phone will again show normal charged count. Usually doing this only one time should solve problem.

Hi CMahendra,
thanks much for your work and efforts with this ROM. I do not mind NFC and fingerprint missing but GPS fix is a vital feature. When are you planning to fix GPS as for the moment this is a showstopper for this ROM?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks a lot for your reply. GPS is important for me too. I am working on it. This is Beta Version and may have some minor bugs. Things will be all perfect when I will release final version.
BTW I am using it for business use and there is no other problem for me while using it. If it lags for some time, just restart and within 30 seconds phone will behave normal Could not work on it for few days due to main job. BTW I do not believe in declaring ETA. Thanks
I flashed lollipop os bt ma cel too heated & sometimes runnings very slow plzz halp me Mahendra Chavan sir i like too much this os bt sometimes faced this problem plz help
Rear camera is not working even after trying your workarounds... Also, what's up with home key? (I am talking about the one bellow the screen, not the onscreen one) It's not working, when u touch it, it vibrates, but doesn't do anything. Another thing is that when u reboot the phone, battery shows 1%, even when it's fully charged. Other than these things, the ROM is quite nice, but wouldn't recommend using it on daily bases.. At least until these bugs are fixed.
Thank you for the awesome rom and for your endless efforts. Downloaded the latest Beta 14 build and will report bug if any shows up.
14/2/16. Updated to latest Beta 15 build which is working great and memory leak isn't an issue anymore.
CMahendra Sir first of all i want to thank you for this great ROM. But i am facing RAM leak issue after 3-4 hours phone become hang and only restarting (remove battery) is only solution. please short-out this problem

Thanks for reply.
Camera works fine but sometimes it changes to front camera for which workaround is given.
Home key on navigation screen works perfect and homekey on phone is not working but both do same task so you can ignore all keys on phone hardware below.
Phone battery shows 1% because you have wrong version of Recovery installed. Read Thread and FAQ carefully.
I already mentioned rom is in beta stage and still work in progress. But I am using it as daily driver. Though Memory Leak (hangs after 4 hours) and GPS are only two known bugs with this rom. So wait for some time if you can not stay with these two.
No need to recommend this rom to anyone. If any courageous person want to try, he/she will do so on their own

Heating while flashing is common issue and you can ignore it. Running slow sometimes is called Memory Leak and it happens after 3/5 hours of use. I am working on the issue. You can restart phone to make it smooth again. Please wait until next update.
Isn't there a way to fix the hardware home key? I mean, since we're all used to the resolution, the software keys are a bit annoying and personally i just disable them (why would u want buttons, that take extra screen space, when u have hardware buttons that do the same exact thing). Also, camera does not work even when given workarounds are used. Also, I forgot to mention, that I came from Elephone P2000 community, maybe that is causing the weird bugs?

Ok sir i am waiting
UPDATE: CM2ROM LOLLIPOP: I think the memory leak problem is almost solved. Now phone is not hanging and much more faster , responsive all the time and no reboot required. No slowdown so no reboot Still will do test for a day and will release a small patch, if successful.
EDIT: Real good results. Changes Confirmed. After 8 hrs of new changes in framework files and new init.d scripts, phone is super smooth and I have at least 25 apps in recent app. I am Not even deliberately trying to clear them .
*Using heavy apps alike FB , Messenger , WA Lollipop version, etc and no lags at all Releasing patch tonight or tomorrow morning
