OP1 - Windows drivers installation
http://www.multiupload.nl/BR8XWD3TF4
[Source: MovilesDualSim.com]
(these drivers work with XP, and possibily with earlier Windows versions)<br>
OP2 - ROOT Access
First action: activate USB DEBUGGING mode.
a) Download and install SHUAME software
http://dl.shuame.com/files/1.0.9/ShuameSetup_1.0.9_general.exe
[Source - Shuame.com]
(it's in chinese, but the install is straight forward... next -> next, etc. )
b) Connect USB cable to the phone. Shuame will detect UMI X1, and you'll see a copy of your screen on the computer
c) Make this 2 clicks:
d) On next screen, click on the "blue" button to initiate the process. Phone will restart several times until finished
NOTICE: to un-root, just click the "root" button on the right (with the $ instead of the #)
OP3 - Install a Clockworkmod (CWM) based recovery console
With this step you'll be able to install non-official ROMS (not digitaly signed)
a) Download the new recovery image:
http://www.multiupload.nl/1210059PIM
[Source - MovilesDualSim.com]
b) Execute SHUAME, and click on button "Recovery":
c) click on the "blue" button -> and choose our IMG file -> click on the "blue" button again
The new recovery console will be installed. To access it:
- turn off Umi X1
- press POWER + VOL.UP, until the UMI logo shows up
- if you see a dead Android -> click HOME
- use vol+ and vol- keys to navigate thru options, and the POWER key to select.
Notice: some pre-recovery consoles have other keys, but the instructions are explicit.
Notice: you can make full backups with this recovery console.
OP4 - Install a new ROM
Most UMI X1 comes with ROM Android 4.0.4 - 20120914-215024
Other ROMS most used by the community:
- 4.0.4 (ICS) - "Samsung" style (LINK) - Source: gizhina.com
- 4.0.4 (ICS) - 20121118 - Official with several fixes - http://pan.baidu.com/share/link?shareid=176071&uk=3022536317
- 4.1.2 (JB) - 20130101 - Official - http://pan.baidu.com/share/link?shareid=210913&uk=3022536317
- 4.1.2 (JB) - 20130109 - Based on Official, with several fixes - http://www.romzj.com/resources/other.html?view=rom&id=6855&layout=default
- 4.1.2 (JB) - 20130118 - Based on Official, with several fixes - http://pan.baidu.com/share/link?shareid=270874&uk=3355610835
Notice: this last one needs some additional tweaks:
-> Install GoogleApps via recovery console http://www.multiupload.nl/F6XPEKN0M0
(GoogleApps also available here: http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip )
-> Copy these Calendar files to /system/app with root explorer and set correct permissions (same as the others) (Source: XDA-Developers - sonof)
-> Install the app "SmartHosts" from the GooglePlay/Market, and update your hosts file in order to make GoogleNews, Facebook, etc. working
[Source1 - ROMJZ.COM]
[Source2 - XDA-DEVELOPERS]
To install a new ROM:
a) copy the ROM ZIP file to the microSD card
b) enter recovery mode - look at the previous question
c) (advisable) make a full backup of the existing ROM
option Backup&Restore -> Backup (it will take long...)
the backup will be on the SD card, folder clockworkmod
d) select option "wipe data / factory reset" -> choose option "YES"
e) select option "install zip from sdcard" -> "choose zip from sdcard" -> choose the ZIP file -> "YES"
f) after "reboot system", the new ROM will be operational.
g) in case the ROM has "chinese" language by default, goto settings menu (the settings icon is easy to find) and choose your language:
OP5 - Readjust the internal storage size
Sometimes, after installing a new ROM, the ROM 4GB get wrongly shared between the "internal storage" and the "phone storage".
Since "phone storage" is a kind of SD which is less used than the "internal storage", is advisable to share the space like this:
2,5Gb: apps / internal storage
80Mb: phone storage
Remaining: ocuppied by the Android ROM
To do that, you just have to use one of these ZIP files:
2,5Gb (recommended) http://www.multiupload.nl/89HKJLG1BI
1,5Gb http://www.multiupload.nl/ZLVMPDAO1V
a) copy the ZIP file to the microSD card
b) Enter recovery console
c) Make a full backup
d) Apply update from SDCard -> choose the ZIP (1,5gb or 2,5gb)
e) reboot and restart phone - (it will say that the storage is corrupted, but don't mind it for now)
f) if the space is not OK (eg: still 500Mb), power off -> enter console recovery -> restore your backup
i) after reboot, and after having the desirable space (2.5gb or 1,5gb) you can go with Android suggestion, and format the SDCard -> the error will disapear. (Notice: you are not formating the microSD card, just the "internal phone" storage

OP6 - Correct problems with GPS
There have been a lot of comments about the GPS functionality on this phone, including several tweaks and tutorials, some with hardware changes, etc..etc...
What I have acknowledged, after having 2 original (no modifications) UMI X1 side by side (one with a KFT antenna, and other without it):
1- It's advisable to do some things in order to make the GPS work faster when you need it
2- GPS reception is not extraordinary good, but it also is not bad, and surely not worse than most Android models with GPS, including the ones from Samsung
3- Antenna changes, or metalic foil "upgrades" may or not be positive, regarding increased signal. Whoever wants may try it, but not necessarily needing to damage/open your UMI X1.
4- About the EPO files: there was some problems with Mediatek servers on Nov/2012, but they look to be solved now, so you won't need to download these files via a FTP client. Just let your phone do it!
However, if your EPO files are not downloading, (goes till 25% or 50% and restarts):
- Install app "Root Browser Lite"
- Goto /data/misc
- Change permissions of mtkgps.dat, EPO.DAT and EPO.MD5 to 7777 (read, write, execute, etc..)
- Check that now Android can download and recognize the EPO files (with 1 month between the 2 dates)
What you can DO to make your GPS better and faster:
a) Download GPS.CONF from your country (e.g. this is from Portugal: LINK). Copy it to /etc (delete the one that was there previously)
(alternatively, use the "PIMP MY ROM" software)
b) Reboot
c) Go to an excelent visibility site (if possible, with clear sky)
d) Enter Engineering Mode: dial nr *#*#3646633#*#*
e) EPO TAB: Enable EPO
f) A-GPS TAB: Enable A-GPS
--- Allow network initiated request
--- Allow EM notifications
g) GPS TAB: GPS(ON)
h) Use "GPS TEST" app to clear the A-GPS, and then start checking the sattelite coverage
i) If it is your first time: WAIT... WAIT.. WAIT... It can take 20mins or more to catch the first satellite. then the second one... slowly... until you get a FIX... and then the accuracy will progressively be better
On next usage (even after reboot), the GPS will be ready and probably get a fix in less than 30seconds!
j) Install a navigation Software (eg: Ndrive or one from GooglePlay)

OP7 - Install Flash Player
Just install this app: http://www.multiupload.nl/72WANNVLKP
(it works on Android 4.1.2 JellyBean straight from the standard browser/Navigator, but you can also try Dolphin browser)

What are your experiences on the 15.03 Lewa OS?

Thank you for all the info pal.
Sent from my UMI X1 using xda app-developers app

thanks! i got myself a UMI X1 who had ICS on it but now im on JB and i dont know why but the Shuame tools didnt worked till i read your post xD and i did exactely the same manipulation luckystar? maybe
big thanks:good::highfive:
sadpart my X1 has only a plain black back cover xD i wanted the "carbon" lookalike one :crying: but i will survive :silly:
one thing ... on the description they write : 2G:GSM 850/900/1800/1900 3G:WCDMA 2100mhz normaly isnt the 900mhz 3G too? in my box its written 2G 800/850/1800/1900 3G 900/2100mhz, that bug me a a little since Sunrise have 3G under the 900mhz and i get only Edge when i activate data and 3G in setup, is it a known problem (i've seen some people getting 3g and other dont) does a fix exist or its only operator related?
on the other hand i use my X1 with only one sim (in the W slot since the G is for GSM so i doubt W wouldnt mean WCDMA) what i suspect is : if there is only one sim in the phone does it works by default on 2G only? or am i paranoid...

UMI x1 problems
Hi All
I was just following your procedure for CW recovery and the fist screen i got after the UMI screen was a list off chinese characters in to left corner.
Like other ndroid phones i have rooted I decided to get out and thinking the last set in the list was "power off" I tried that without luck now I have a screen with chinese charactors high lighted and the next line in english is camera with a space then home. Niether the power button or the volume button make any change.
Have I bricked the phone?
Can anyone help me please.
Thanks in advance Davoh:crying:

Hello All,
I have tried to root my UMI X1, but it keeps failing.
At first, I tried to follow the first step here. On my screen appeared prompt to restore my data from computer and the Shuame wizard showed me an image, that refers to accept the restoration of the data. (I didn't loose anything, because I had it in factory state...) After confirming, UMI just restarted and rooting process seems to be completed, but not correctly.
From two available buttons in wizard I guessed, that it was cancel and retry options.
I even try to access root explorer, but still "no root permission".
Now I was confused, so I try to do all from start. I wiped my phone, uninstall the wizard, set the english on phone, installed the wizards again and tried the whole procedure again.
...with the same result, of course.
So, I looked at the main page of Shuame, translate it to english through google and I found practically the same manual to root the phone.
And again, I followed the steps by this manual, and now.... surprisingly with the same NEGATIVE result.
At the end of that manual was reference to the advanced procedure how to root the phone, where I was supposed to download their .zip file, oped it with the wizard and let him upload the files to my phone.
Well, I followed this manual also. But the process has the same result.
Now I am desperate and I'm not able to find any other solution on the net. Please help.
I need to fix my GPS.

Hello All,
I left my UMI without battery for 2 days and I was searching for other solutions.
I don't know how, but after two days I tried the same procedure again. For my big surprise, I was able to root my phone and flash the CWM.
I was happy to finally see some results, but little bit to early.
I try one ROM here and it was installed without problems. Booting was a little longer, but nothing uncommon.
After boot I changed language to EN and tried to connect to my wifi at home. But now I found even bigger problem, than not working GPS.
My wifi stucked. The message was telling me "Turning on...", but it was there "like-forever".
I opened engeneering mode and looked at status of wifi - "UNINITIALIZED".
My guess was, that I lost drivers to wifi adapter, but I didn't how. So I started looking on internet for wifi problems with UMI X1... and didn't find even one solution. Nobody on the whole internet seems to have some problems with wifi.
OK, wifi out, I tried to fix GPS as well. Suprisingly no singal (or all satellites were on the other side of the planet. )
I came up with idea, it could be problem with this ROM, so I tried every one with the same steps like the first one. Still the same state.
This situation is driving me crazy and I am obviously loosing my mind.
Please, if anyone could be just a little helpful, I will VERY appreciate that. :crying::crying::crying:
Thank you all.

Yeah, I would like to say, that I have found a solution. But still nothing. Maybe I am to crazy to find something useful.

well, I just got my UMI X1, so far so good.
But I can't get the mobile data to work, I know I have to add the settings, but after doing it and selecting them, I just can't browse at all.
Could anyone help?

Make sure that you have your SIM in correct slot. For me mobile data were working correctly, but i had to switch SIM to "W" (W-CDMA).

Thanks for your response.
For now I'm using only the W-CDMA slot, but still no good.
Any other advice?

I found my X1 to be edge only, i also use the W slot only too but it seems he goes hspa when il not home (i live in a middle altitude place) i guess the reception quality isnt good as my One X.
In fact it does exactely like my huawei ideos x1 (U8180) so i guess chinese brand doesnt like mountains
More on it ask your operator wich band they use for 3g... Here Sunrise use the 900mhz wich is either GSM or WCDMA

Hi, i bought an UMI X1 recently and i want to install a rom to fix GPS problem, but unfortunately the phone isn't rooted, so i've tried using the last version of shuame, but i can't get the phone rooted. I start the wizard, with the phone connected, and after a while it shows the screen that talks about restore my data, but i don't understand what it says in the screen of shuame, because it squares the option "Restore my data" but i don't know if i have to press that. But, well, i press that button, then it restarts, and in the shuame screen it shows a blue button that if i press and it hasn't detected the phone after the restart, it shows some message, and until is recognized again by shuame, it shows like it's working again and after a while it shows again the "Restore my data" stuff, so i don't know if i have to press some button or just wait, anyone has experimented this problem?
There-s an image of the screen of shuame that i get (sorry i cannot insert images yet)

[GUIDE] How to work with MTK Engineer tools - Monitor radio - Modify NVRAM &more

Hello!
In this thread I want to show you how to use MTK Engineer tools. You will need a phone with a MTK (Mediatek) chip to work with this tools.
The most important tool I want to introduce you is MTK Catcher. MTK Catcher is an engineer program for Windows which allows to log and debug low level information on MTK devices (running android). The most interesting thing is that you can see GSM/UMTS radio messages between the phone and the cellular network. This is something special because all mobile phones have proprietary baseband firmware. We can gain insight in underlying GSM/GPRS protocols. MTK Catcher will display the information like in Wireshark. Xgoldmon and OsmocomBB are other projects which give the possibility to monitor this information but this is by far the user-friendliest way to do this.
However there is more potential behind this. The problem is that everything is proprietary here. It would be great if we could parse all information direct on the phone with MTK Catcher. We need to reverse engineer how MTK Catcher decodes the information using the database files. If we can analyze low level data direct on the phone, we could use e.g. this information for our IMSI Catcher Detector project to detect IMSI Catchers aka Stingrays much more reliable (Here you can see what kind of information we need to achieve this).
For more information about MTK Catcher read the manuals.
Warning: Working with Engineer tools means that you can damage your phone! Everything you do is at your own risk!
a) Capture network events and analyze later
Check if you have MTKLogger installed, this tool comes preinstalled on many MTK devices
Open MTK EngineerMode (you can use Mobileuncle MTK Tools to do this)
Open MTKLogger in “Log and Debugging”
Activate option “ModemLog”.
Start recording with MTKLogger and stop later.
On your sdcard you will find folder “mtklog” where all captures are saved including a database file.
Copy mtklog from your phone to PC
Open Catcher.exe
Select in Config → Database path your database file (BPLGU...)
Select in Controls → Dump File your MDLog_PS file (MDLog_L1 is not displayed)
b) Capture network events live over USB and access phone with other tools
You will need the database file so obtain it doing the procedure under a)
Activate USB Debugging in Developer Options
Open MTKLogger preferences
In ModemLog menu change Log Mode to “USB Mode”
Install MTK USB drivers
Install ADB drivers
Connect your phone with USB cable to your PC
Open Catcher.exe
Select in Config → Database path your database file (BPLGU...)
Start recording with MTKLogger *important*
Select in Configure Port → Conn. Mode “Smartphone USB Logging (MD1)”
Select in Controls → Set Filter what you want to display or just select all
Check Advanced menu out, there will be e.g. SIM/USIM Editor
How to edit NVRAM
Install MTK USB drivers
Install Maui META
Power off your phone
Attach your phone to USB → VCOM port should get installed
Open META (it needs admin privileges to create log files under C:/)
Select in Options → Connect Smartphone into META mode
Press Reconnect button
Attach powered off phone to USB
Power on the phone → Phone should get stuck on boot screen and fail driver install
Open device manager, Select “ALL MTK Drivers” as driver update path
Gadget CDC VCOM appears
Detach phone from USB
Power off the phone (hold power key for 10 seconds or remove battery)
Close META and try again the steps 5-9
If not successful try again 5-9 and 12-13
META shows “Connected with target” → Phone is in META mode
Select NVRAM editor in drop down menu
Press “Read from NVRAM” button
Select database file (BPLGU...)
NVRAM Records that might be relevant for logging:
NVRAM_EF_PORT_SETTING_LID:
usb_logging_mode: 1
tst_output_mode: 1 (to file)
NVRAM_EF_TST_CONFIG_LID:
usb_dma_logging_enable: TRUE
Please share everything relevant about what you could find out regarding MTK engineer tools! Thank you!

Thanks, excellent post! I was trying to analyze what is wrong with a MT6752 device and also to correct some NVRAM errors in a MT6592 device (lost wifi MAC address). Catcher seems like the perfect tool for that. Wish I had seen your post long time ago.

is there any solution to see realtime the codec in use for a call?

Hi! Maui Meta is passworded?

Change Mac Adress permanently CM12 // Xperia Z3 maybe other Sony devices

Hi,
after CM 12 my Z3 becomes the same MAC Adress like my Z2 Wifi Tablet.
So how to change the MacAdress of my Z3 permanently?
Tried to google for it but found only solutions for KitKat that dont work.
And here is the Solution for CM12/maybe other CustomROMs that changes MAC Adress at flashing:
1. Use a Root Explorer/Root Filemanager
2. Go to: /data/etc/wlan_macaddr0
3. Open it and read out your old MAC from Sony - write it down.
4. Go to: /system/etc/firmware/wlan/bcmdhd/bcmdhd.cal and open it writeable
5. Edit Line 8 macaddr=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx to your original MAC from Sony.
6. Save changes and reboot.
7. DONE - enjoy - you will have your old MAC Adress permanently.

Posted solution in first Post.

IMEI & NVRAM FIX by RI$HI

Hello Friends,
IMEI & NVRAM ERROR is common if a ROM is not properly flashed on mobile & what if we have not taken the NVRAM backup then what we do is flash the STOCK ROM and end up with IMEI & NVRAM ERROR.
I have a proper solution, this one WORKED for me and I hope it will work for you too. Just follow the proper guidelines mentioned below and bring your mobile back to life

Wi-Fi mac address never goes away even after flashing Rom or during the error, so you can get it from
Settings > About phone > Status > Wi-Fi Mac address

[GUIDE] Restore IMEI number after an NVRAM clear

This thread will go over restoring the IMEI number if you cleared the NVRAM (or fully formatted your phone). The official tool to use is the SN Writer tool from Mediatek but as the P60 processor is not compatible with that, I had to search for alternative ways.
First the legal blerb:
IT IS ILLEGAL TO FLASH A DIFFERENT IMEI NUMBER THAN THE ONE IT CAME WITH (AS FOUND ON THE SIM TRAY OR BOX).
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE OR LEGAL AFFAIRS CAUSED BY USING THIS GUIDE. IF YOU DO BLAME IT ON ME THEN I WILL LAUGH AT YOU!
Now the guide.
You will need:
- The phone
- A USB cable
- A Windows computer (I used Windows XP, I will get to that later.)
- The drivers linked below (no other drivers seem to work properly or at all.)
- MauiMETA (linked below.)
Part 1: driver installation
These are essential to get the phone to be recognized
- Remove the phone if it's plugged in.
- If using Windows Vista or newer, disable driver signature enforcing (look up online if you don't know how to). For Windows XP there is no such limitation, you can just click a "continue anyway" button.
- Download and extract the drivers (linked below).
- Run "Install Drivers.bat" and follow instructions.
- Reboot the computer to be sure.
Part 2: installing MauiMETA
You will need this tool to start the phone to META mode and write the IMEI numbers.
- Download the setup program.
- Install the software by following on-screen instructions.
Part 3: getting the phone to go into meta mode
- Turn off the phone completely.
- REMOVE THE SIM CARD JUST IN CASE!
- Open the MauiMETA program on your computer.
- Check if the device select is set to "Smartphone" and if the drop-down in the top left is set to "IMEI Download"
- Click "reconnect" and plug in the phone.
- Wait until the phone displays "=> Meta mode" and the application either says "connected" or displays an error box.
Don't be scared of the error box. Just close it. Another may pop up, close that too. If the MauiMETA program displays a few boxes that say something with 6771, it's been detected and the IMEI Download tool is about to open.
Part 4: downloading an IMEI number to the phone
I would again like to warn you that flashing the non-original IMEI is illegal!
If the tool asks if it should find the database itself, click yes. There is no database you can load yourself, so the built-in one will work fine.
- Find your IMEI number(s). They should start with "35".
- Put in the IMEI number to the tool. The middle box is where you start typing. The very last number will need to go in the small box to the right. If you have a dual SIM model, there will be a submenu called "SIM_2" which you can find at the top of the tool.
- Click the "Download to phone" button and it should flash the IMEI numbers.
- When everything is done, hold the power button of the phone for about 10 seconds until it boots into the OS.
If everything went right, you should have a working phone now. I still need to figure out how to restore WiFi and BlueTooth MAC addresses, but the random ones the OS give you should do fine. Also ignore the NVRAM Error 0x10 wifi network, it indicates both are gone. Also some UI bits and pieces might be wrong on the latest Android because for example the notch values were loaded into device-specific partitions.

My device is oneplus nord 2 . When i am using the maui meta software , my phone is always connected on COM6 port and in the maui meta software i can only see COM1 , USB COM and DIAG COM . When i connect the phone the COM6 is displayed and after that when i click on reconnect the maui meta software says please connect cable to target and power on when the phone is already in meta mode. Can you please help me with that ?
