[Q] Gionee E3

Hey guys, Im new to this site and pretty new to the Android operating system. I just got myself a Gionee E3, Dont say it doesn't exist or anything because its not on the website. Its not released yet in many places and Im in China where Im pretty sure they are moving the stock first. There is a video of it on youtube, just search "Gionee E3". Basically, its an amazing phone for the price you pay for in hardware specs (I think) but the problem is the Gionee stuff that comes with it. Im unable to do anything related to google accounts much less download from the Play Store. The current version is 4.2.1 and I've read that other people with Gionee issues in the past have had to root their phone and install custom firmwares and all that just to get google play store working. Now, Im ok with that, just that there aren't any instructions for this particular phone out yet, in the mean time, anyone know of any other methods I can try? Please??

Go on the browser and try downloading the play store apk?

Tried that first, didnt work. Also tried downloading the apk from the computer and installing it, didnt work. Think theres something in the phone that is stopping it form running Google stuff. Will need to wait until theres more info/a way to root I think.

Five simple steps:
Step 1: Root your phone using One-Click root or any other free software
Step 2: Install Root explorer apk from apkmania. Note: Place the apk file on your sd card. If you have a file manager, use it to open the apk. If you don't have a file manager, Open the web browser and type: file:///sdcard/ (name of the apk file).apk
Step 3: Install System Tuner pro apk. This allows you to uninstall all the crappy apps you don't need.
Step 4: Install google play store apk. Available on-line.This app allows you to officially download all the apps.
Step 5: Go out and Explore. :good:

I'll try my best to help you :-
About Battery Life on Gionee E3 - Decent Battery , Nothing to worry lasts one day​
Gionee Elife E3 Pro's & Con's -
​
:good: Pros -
Display is very bright , vivid , and crisp
Build Quality
Quad Core Chipset
Touch Responce
Signal's Were Awesome
Authentic Chinese Phone (No Rebranding like micromax does)
Battery is Decent , Not too much and not too low
Black Levels are Awesome
Graphics on Games Look Awesome...!!
Can Be Rooted Now..!
Cons -
1. Gaming Performance - This is the most frustrating thing that i found out as this mobile scores awesome on benchmarks .
I was facing many issues playing even the casual games like fruit ninja . I don't know what was causing this issue but the game was lagging . But on the other side a game like Dead Trigger Played awesomely..!
Also i was facing a lil bit of frame drops in games like
Subway Surfures
Temple Run 1 & 2
Asphalt 7
But on the other side Front line Commando Played Awesomely
I am still a little bit confused and thinking what is causing these issues. So i installed nova launcher , rooted my phone , deleted all the useless crap that gionee puts on this phone , and installed some task killers and an app named trickster mod (mobile needs to be rooted)
and did some tweakings in the app trickster mod and then the games that i mentioned played awesomely but for the time when the application trickster mod is running and each time u lock and unlock the phone u will need to launch this app to regain the access to the awesome performance.
2. No custom roms available yet
3. Heating issue near the camera when playing high end games
4. Camera Crashes Sometimes (Rare Times)
5. Screen Blacking Out and To do a Battery Pull (Rare)
That's pretty much u will need to know before buying this device.
Overall a good device ,
Some things Gionee needs to fix like Making their UI more simplistic and stock
Increasing the gaming performance by changing some software of the phone in their further updates
Removing the Pre-Loaded Crapware
Thanks & Regards

Hey, hi... I'm also looking forward to buy the same from flipkart... How's the phone...??? After using a bit... does it hang...Does Google maps work on it properly.... Howz the battery?... If I load it with many apps... does it hang or get slowed down? I want to use it for constant internet connectivity with instant messengers like whatsapp and others... Want to use social networking sites like Facebook and others,... and stay in touch with Google maps... What do you say... should I buy it?

For new users!
Also Give a try with Framaroot! It does the job too.

Starting off with the phone is very sleek and light. Till now it hasnt hanged even once. Honestly i am yet to try out the google maps so will post review in a day or two. Battery can be rated 7.5/10 as it gives a healthy amount of service, i used wifi for about 5 hours till it got red. If you load it with many apps then obviously it will get a bit slower as its having armv7 processor wid 512mb ram, try not to overhaul it, Otherwise the phone is pretty nice, sound is ordinary. Whatsapp and facebook works really well without lag. Games are real crisp and smooth, BUT hd games and games which r high end will have some lag but still it does not force close thats the good part.
Especially all of this at this price is a real good deal.
My suggestion u can go ahead and buy it. best of luck with it. Enjoy

Ordered one from Flipkart. Lucky to get it for INR 4649 before the price hiked yet again. Waiting for the delivery. Will report back with a hands on review, probably on my blog. Excited...

Thankyou Man

That was awesome dude. I have bought the phone recently and wanted to root it ever since. With SRS, it was easy as anything could be. Thankyou so much. Anyways, I have a silly question. Is there any way we can get OTA update feature for our phone

A12+ stuck at boot screen
i have A12+ and have rooted it successfully:laugh: but then in hurry i have installed chainfire downloaded long ago which is not compatible with jellybean 4.2.2 and i am stuck in boot screen (the eye) , i have already tried wiping data and cache from recovery and i have not installed cwm i have stock recovery. i could have uninstalled it via adb but 4.2.2 have sideload only hence adb commands are not working adb shell returns error : closed error. now the only option i have is to flash stock rom which i have not backed up so it would be very kind of you to upload it .or i have also read that it could be achieved by installing TWRP recovery and then renaming some files and changing some values from this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2560607 , who had similar case like me .so if anyone could provide me the stock rom and preloader drivers it would be very helpful my mobile is just a week old :crying:

can you boot into recovery mode?

Thanks, mrkhigh
Now I have root but I don't know how exactly.
I was tried Kingroot apk but with little possibilities of success ( is supposed that the Samsung devices can be rooted with the desktop version and not with the apk (I don't have a computer)).
I was installed MY BACKUP and BUSYBOX and maybe by consequence I get root user permission. Next I changed Superuser by SuperSu. Now I have titanium backup too and all work ok .
Thanks.

I hope in the future install CM
