Anyone else happen to have this phone? The device runs on an MT6572 with 1GB, er, 512MB RAM, a 960x540 display, and comes with a swiveling camera (which is why some vendors would pass it off as an "Oppo" model). Android version is reported to be 4.4.2 Kitkat, API verison 19, but afaik the SOC used tops out at Jellybean, so can anyone confirm this, or is there an app to expose it as a fake?
Here's a snap of my phone:

TWRP image (works on the "Oppo" variants. Should also work on other X-BO V5 ROMs from what I can attest):
Code:
http://d-h.st/6C3j
I did a dump of it just recently (even though there's already ROM images for it; had to do mine as I couldn't seem to find any "Oppo"-branded ones yet). I might do a CWM or TWRP recovery for this in case you guys are interested in customising the device in some way, or perhaps even port the ColorOS UI to it for maximum lulz.
EDIT: I couldn't find any hidden settings applets to toggle between device spec options (i.e. fake 4G/RAM/boot logo, etc) other than a "flash select" menu to change the reported internal storage size, but the following properties are confirmed to work:
Code:
persist.sys.changeain (use numbers 1 to 7 to cycle between animations)
persist.sys.signaltype (setting this to "normal" sans quotes displays the actual cellular radio type instead of forcing the UI to display either 3G or 4G)
persist.sys.devicememory (yep, it's for faking the internal memory size. Couldn't force it to display the real capacity for some reason [EDIT: Set it to "true" sans quotes for the phone to report the real capacity])

Have you tried checking the IMEIs on the phone? I could send you an NVRAM bin backup if that one's hosed i.e. you're getting invalid serial numbers.
Seems like some variants appear to be infected with com.android.ys.services or the ZZPush trojan. In my case it's embedded in /system/priv-app. Not sure if it's the only gremlin residing or if the manufacturer was making a fool of themselves by further infecting the firmware by integrating it deeply into the boot partition as what I attested with a friend's Allwinner tablet:
https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/...e805058f3d85381d215ca778/analysis/1458692140/
Sorry for the triple-post, but thought I might ask if anyone knows how to force the gradient status bar on later firmware revisions. I'd like to use the "S9_72KK_KK_3G_EMMC_32_4_XX_V36_ZXMD 20160116-153508 – yuanda72_cwet_kk-user 4.4.2 KOT49H" build as it has the option to show the actual RAM and /sdcard capacities, yet for some reason the gradient-style status bar doesn't show up whenever I use a third-party launcher.
Trebuchet on stock ROM:
Apex/Trebuchet/whatever on later builds:
Oh and I've also attached a small utility to change the faked device settings to their real values - special thanks to @hrk for the code I used to issue setprop and a bunch of other commands.
The app did not work
Is the app supposed to work, cause my phone is rooted but still the fake values remain.

Strange, it worked on my end and I was able to change the faked storage and cellular modem values to their real equivalents on my phone. Can you give me your phone's firmware build number? Also, if it's running off a later build, can you try updating SuperSU and the su binary to see if my utility works?

Can you tell us your phone's firmware version? Try deleting android_service_800000_0923_outsea.apk,the default launcher and the theme app (forgot the name of that one, let me look for it in a bit) off /system/priv-app then restart your phone. I don't have the phone with me unfortunately.

You can try flashing a stock firmware image to it. It shouldn't be that hard to do so, and there are links to said ROM on NeedROM too.

Hello!
Good links. I tried to read the all 18 pages translated by google, but the translation is not very good.
Could you speak russian?
Must I have such a cable to adjust the IMEI after updating?
On my A3000 version (dual sim android 2.2) the GPS is not working and the other forum explains that this could be solved by a new firmware version...
I speak russian.
those ROM has two problems: GPS Doens't work and Market application defective.
Flashing this ROM might be a huge mistake (IMHO)
Let's wait and see
hi friend, u have found other russian Rom work with a3000 ? Pls send link. Thanks
The A3000 i recently bought has no GPS chip in it, the battery does not charge, and the resistive touchscreen has a large dead spot on it. It seems there are several hundred versions of the A3000 and I doubt the ROMs from one will work on the other because the hardware varies so much.
i have buy this model A3000. Arrive today. The firmware version is

Hi!
To root the phone use z4root (permanent root. temporary root doesn't work!). Also install TitaniumBackup and backup all applications from phone (WARNING! It is NOT full backup!)
There are good thread at russian forum for flashing this phone, ROMs for it and related problems/bugs. -- http://forum.china-iphone.ru/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=9519&start=760
If you do not understand Russian and translate.google.com cannot help you, I may provide some essential information from there soon.
First of all, perform full backup of your phone! Otherwise you can lost IMEIs after reflashing OR restoring to initial settings.
For FULL backup of your phone use this manual -- http://forum.china-iphone.ru/viewtopic.php?uid=76043&f=31&t=11788&start=0 See text under "Сливаем прошивку" spoiler there.
Backup also content of /nvram forder from phone.
I also recommend you perform backup of all files from phone using tar utility.
Tar you can get there -- http://groomws.info/index.php?title=AndroidNativeBinaries
Copy tar binary to sd-card.
Commands for tar backup:
Code:
su
cat /mnt/sdcard/tar > /data/tar
chmod 0755 /data/tar
/data/tar -cvpf "/mnt/sdcard/rootfs.tar" --same-permissions --same-owner --verify --exclude="/mnt/sdcard/" --exclude="/sys/power/wait_for_fb_wake" -C "/" "./"
Ok !
thank you so much !
No i don't speak russian either chinese !
I'll try in an hour !
@darthtony
Plase use the "Tanks" button next time!
Sorry,
but i've not understood
i need of two different cable?
No. You will need stock cable from phone's kit only.
And what step(s) exactly do you not understand?
i had understood that to flash my phone i need this cable :
item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=8591547110
And i'm searching one !
SP update can't find the com port with the standard cable !
So i'm stucked !
Another thing ! i made the backup with YAFF2 ! it was the only thing i've to do , wasn't it ?
i've also backuped the nvram directory !
Isn't there a way to make the backup with SP update ?
for the rest i hope it is simple !
I install the modem driver when i plug the phone to the PC, then using "SP update" i set the port and the speed , i set the file MT6516_Android_scatter.txt from the rom zip
and if it works ... it works ! xD
another question : would this resolve the GPS problem ?

No! For flashing your phone you DO NOT need flashing cable! "Flashing" cable are used for restoring IMEIs if you did not backup /nvram directory from your phone.
For flashing your phone you can use attached bundle of software and instructions. -- http://us.ua/199217/
This manual explain recovery.img flashing process. For full flashing -- select all .img files from ROM archive (except preloader.img, if it exists).
Archived .DOС-file is in russian, but instructions, contained in it, are simple, so you can use translate.google.com for translation.
If you cannot understand some steps, ask here.
There are also needed modem drivers in this archive. Power off phone, then connect it (powered OFF!) to the computer via usual USB cable. MTK USB modem device will appear FOR 5 SECONDS. After this timeout it will disappear.
You should manually locate folder with this driver in "New Hardware Found" wizard in these 5 seconds and install this driver. Otherwise SP Flash Tool will not found your phone.
Specifying a COM-port number in SP Tool is NOT needed, this program will find phone automatically.

In newest batches of A3000 phones GPS chip is physically absent.
You can check it presence in Factory mode.
Power off phone. Press one of side volume buttons (check each of it, I do not remember exactly) and power button. "Factory mode" text will appear. Then you can go to the underlying menu - GPS test. If you will get "-8" test result -- there is no GPS chip in your phone. If test will pass -- there are no hardware problems with GPS in your phone.

I made the test and it failed !
But if i open google navigator it shows my position !
Also installing another 2 navigator it founds my position ! So i thought that it was a software problem !
Disconnect from WiFi and Bluetooth, pull out both SIM cards and launch your navigation software again.
If it will show your location correctly, it is GPS. Otherwise base-station-based location were used.
You can also use GpsTest software from Android Market.
I disconnected from everything but i forgot that i've only google maps navigator in this time so i've put on WI-fi connection to download the map and then i'm gone where the Wi-fi signal is off !
It indicates my right position !
I've a home wi-fi to connect pc between floors ....
It is enough ?
Hi. I'm having big problems with my o3d. Since i bought it it works badly.
For example, i've noticed that camera often wont work... it takes long to start..but when it finally starts...won't take pictures...just exits to home screen. Same thing is with the flash light...often won't work...
Than i reboot my phone...that helps...but for a short while..
When i'm trying to call someone it takes about 30 sec to start calling. After i press call...it shows black screen...30 sec more or less... same thing is when someone is calling me...when it starts ringing..it shows black screen..i often missed my calls because of it...it takes a lot for the call to show up on the screen.
Also it takes a long time for aplications to start.
I use to use go launcher,than i reseted my phone and instaled xperia launcher..same thing...and i used his own launcher...and it didn't work better either.
I don't have too many applications installed..
What is the problem? Hardware or software? If it's hardware i could take it to the store and exchange it for a new one.
It is so slow... i'm.going crazy.
Please help...any kind of advice is welcome

I suppose that you still have the stock ROM? To check if your problem is hardware or software related, you cab do a factory reset/wipe (from the phone menu or from the stock recovery).
If after a complete wipe you still have the same problems, then it's most probably hardware related problem and you could send it to the LG service.
Try a full reset
I would suggest to make a complete reset, not only a factory reset (which only wipes user data). To do this, download the update software directly from LG's site and choose the "emergency recovery" option. This will download and install the lattest ROM available for your region, even if it is already installed.
This will make sure that you are running the lattest official ROM, specially if your phone was purchased used. If it is new, the procedure won't void your waranty.
Installing custom rom is not an option because i'll loose warranty.
I did factory reset...and when there's no app instaled...it works fine...but as soon as i install few apps it slows down a lot and takes a lot to open apps...
thx everyone...i'll try that emergancy recovery...
Sent from my LG-P920 using XDA
I did that few days ago..installed the latest version of the software
What's the use of a phone like this if i can't install any apps.
Is there any way to find out which app causes problems...maybe it's not all apps...could be just one app that's slowing down my phone?

Yes, surelly. You yourself just said that the phone works fine when there are no applications installed. First, I suggest you turn off all data communication on your phone to see if data communication is your problem (3G, Wifi and bluetooth). Then, if it doesn't help, you should uninstall one application at a time to discover which one is the culprit.
I would point out that my phone, sometimes act slowly for some seconds, just like any PC, because it is running some background application that is consuming resources. As soon the app completes, the performance comes back to normal.
Finally, if the problem is as strong as you sound, then your phone probably is deffective and should be sent to service. This phone is one of the best in terms of processor performance, except in terms of RAM memory, which is relatively small in todays standards.

In LGMobile Support Tool, select [Customer Support] Menu then [Recovery Phone] option. Then enter your IMEI. The program will download and install the lattest rom available for your region even if it is already installed. This is usefull to be shure you are not using a corrupted ROM.
If you want to download and install V21E if it is not available to you, download from here and then use the tutorial from the first sticky thread and read this.
i tried that, with recovery, entered my imei and it says something ... fatal error

UPDATE: The phone is good, but after i rooted i forgot to set permission for something and i stuck it in a bootloop.
It got fixed. A few months after i broke the charging part and it was fixed, but for some reason it still didn't chare. It got fixed after a few weeks and I got it back. The phone is in great condition.
The time it was kinda broke i used a Nokia Lumia 520 and a Huawei Ideos X1.
It's great to have a Dual Sim phone.
Sounds good to me. I've just ordered one as a cheap backup phone. I was't too sure what to make of their custom Android, but can't see any reason not to mess around with 'official' versions.
just place order.
next week i'll work on it for recovery cwm and root
just received yesterday ..
put under test and "personalized" with root, cwm recovery, Nova launcher alternative is icon pack lollipop and miui.
I also expanded the partition dedicated to app 1Gb original to 2.5GB (the maximum allowed) so as not to have problems even for heavy app.
also put Xposed framework and gravity box JB to customize interface, awakening through volume buttons, notifications etc ..
I have the rom 4.2.9 (4.2.2 renamed in a simple prop to build doogee) of October 2014, I also have a Nandroid backup but do not know how to post for the benefit of others, as to create a flashable zip, mo need a file that is not in the default package, but only in custom rom (I owe creareeeeee ...).
I was pleasantly surprised:
- Brightness and color screen
- Soft touch keys backlit
- General fluidity
- Battery, looks great and durable (to be tested)
- Power Options
negative notes:
- Touch to only two touches
- Various junk (immediately removed with root).
For the root, is simplicity disarmanete .. just download the app from xda framaroot 1.9.3, launch it and choose the last item ... restart and you supersu ..

Installing Apps on SD card
How have you guys been using the SD card? The phone storage is just 2 GB which vanishes in no time. I have setup the Default Write under Storage to be SD card. I even went through the process of installing the Android SDK and changing the install location to 2 using adb, but nothing seems to be working. It continues to complain that there is no storage available when I try to install any new app, while there is 14 GB sitting there in my SD card getting wasted.

New ROM 20150104
Hi,
Has anyone tried the ROM dated 20150104? On the Doogee Service site it says improved rear camera, is there indeed an improvement?
In all Galaxy family there is this code to see the firmware version of the camera
*#34971539#
When you enter it, this screen appears:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
You can see that the "phone to cam" options are darker and you can´t select them.
When you click on the first option, the "version check" you can see that it isn´t updated
The phone versions are newer than the ones written on the Camera.
Other versiones just need to add a small file called 1q2w3e4r.key to the main memory and then the options to write the new version can be selected without root or any mod, but with this one doesn´t work this way.
Anyone know a way to do it?
I have the same data.
Maybe there is a rom that let you write the firmware... some kind of developer rom
Any idea?
I also have this problem with my S6 but I couldn't do anything until now ..maybe some clever guys can help us
I have (still) not rooted or modified my phone and my camera fw is like yours not the same like the phone fw. i dont think its a bug...

Hope so!
With my old s5 it only works with one ROM and a file, but I don't find any for this
I upgraded the firmware and now I have a newer firmware on the phone but the camera still with the original one..
Any idea on this?
Pay attention to LOAD. That's the one that the phone's camera is using. Days of updating camera firmware are over, for the past few years. No need anymore.

So why isn't the same?
On the S3 and S5 it was exactly the same and when you added the correct files and you updated it appears the same on Cam ver. Load ver. and Phone ver.

Also when I add to the phone memory this small file I talked about this is what is happens...
It says: "Update firmware" and the option now appears in dark grey like the others.
The problem is that I don't have the files on the same folder so I can't select the other options and when I say yes to this popup I have to wait few minutes and any update appears.
I think I have the camera firmware files found.
The files are probably stored in:
/system/vendor/firmware
or
/vendor/firmware
In Samsung Stock ROM's.
When I copy the files (include key file) into the root of the internal SD, but they are not recognized.
The both firmware write menus remain dark gray.
Probably the sensor matching files must be identified and renamed.
Sorry for my bad English.

Great!! I think they are the firmware files too!!
I tried but happens the same, maybe we need other rom or a rooted phone.
Hope someone else try it and works to tell us how to do it.
We are in progress!
In older GALAXY models you had to rename the firmware file accordingly.
Only then they were recognized by the system.
One must also choose the correct matching built for the sensor.

Back when these phones were released, you had only cam version and phone version. Which is why we were all on neverending quest to make them same.
Subsequently they have added the load section which compares cam firmware, phone firmware (which is deposited by latest system firmware update) and decides to use latest one.
I guess they did not want users flashing different camera firmwares, from different modules, so they beefed up security on later models, as well removed the need for it, in one fell swoop.
Which is why I said for the past few years in my previous comment.

A track can be :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/help/camera-firmware-thread-t2832384
It works the same way that in S5 or S6 if I rename them but when I push the update option after 2 minutes updating it still the same.
I think I don't have the correct files..
Same Problem here, but how did you unlock Default FW Write etc.?
They are greyed out (S6 Edge) and if i use the apk´s from MrFhenix the Camera Test wont work at all.
Could maybe someone Save his apk´s - i think it´s because of incompatibility of Kitkat and MM (i´m on 6.0.1)

You can ungrey it by doing the following
Rename "yoursensor modexxx.bin" to CamFW_Main.bin
Rename "yoursensor modelxxx.bin" to CamFW_Companion.bin
You also have to add an empty file called 1q2w3e4r.key
You can create it with a pc, just create a text file name it like that and add .key to the name, it doesnt need to have anything inside.
First of all, thank you for reading my post.
I'll try to point out what is going on right now iwith the phone (never saw it happen, ever).
Phone boots but shows a blank (black screen with faded light in the corners) after booting.
After several tries, found out that the 4G is on and receiving notifications (LED is blinking waiting for my response ) and I'm receiving calls nonetheless, so it is working but I can't use the screen.
The screen IS FINE, the boot shows up properly, the fastboot menu shows up properly, sometimes the icons and widgets shows up where they should be, the "Shut down" button shows up properly.
What seems to be the issue is that the upper tray with the time, data, and other things, and the down one with the "◁ ⭘ ▢" menu doesn't shows up AT ALL, so I just receive a blank screen.
Also, the computer isn't finding the phone even if it is connected through the USB cable.
I'm acessing the "Whatsapp" app in the computer right now, which requires the phone to be online and with a internet connection, meaning that the apps are functional and something really weird is happening.
The phone was working fine until last afternoon, just blanked moments after I got out of my house (when I first noticed the issue).
So... anyone willing to crack heads with me trying to figure out what the hell is happening here?
I'll provide pictures soon.
Thanks in advance!
:highfive:
EDIT1: seems to show this "Unfortunately System UI has Stopped" from time to time.
EDIT2: https://youtu.be/AS-wv0NB-g4 (recorded the issue) the 58s shows what i'm talking about.

Most likely a firmware issue

Most likely a firmware issue - may be a corruption has developed or could be an incompatible app update (Google Play Services or your launcher?) . Are you rooted? You haven't indicated what ROM you have installed (Stock, custom ...?). Is the recovery stock or custom? Can you enter recovery? Does everything look as it should in recovery? If custom, do you have a recent backup and have you tried running it? The 1045 is the US version I believe - are you sure it's not a 1040 (Canada/Brazil)?
Your best bet may be to install/flash another ROM, either stock or custom. Check out lost101's or vpnair's threads for stock firmware for your phone - they've done an excellent service by providing these ROMS and they are great. I've used both at different times to overcome some issues - may be the best way to go at this stage.
Good luck --- S.
Something caused and error in your firmware, you have to do the following:
1.- Try to backup your files. See if you can connect it to the PC and explore the files from there.
2.- Once backup is done, you have 2 ways:
A) Unlock bootloader, then flashing TWRP recovery, then installing a custom ROM like CyanogenMOD or AOSP.
B) Search and download the stock firmware file, extract the files, and then flashing it to your phone using mfastboot excecutable.
You can find the files and the info here in XDA thread, just do it carefully and read instructions.
If you can't find something say it and I can help, but won't spoonfeed you.
Good luck.

Stock and yes, 1045.
I've fixed the issue by restoring the phone through the fast boot (but lost all my data because I couldn't create a backup at all).
Case closed, thanks.

I'll migrate to the Oneplus 3 soon, but just so you know, I'll root the phone later on, couldn't find the cause of the problem and had to wipe the phone in order for it to work, so that's it, case closes. Thanks.
Good to know ...

If you run into the issue again at any point, your apps and some data can be backed up to your Google account. Additionally, it is worth rooting your phone and installing Titanium Backup (free) available on Play Store to back up all your data. Once rooted, make sure you backup your phone through recovery and copy the contents on your phone over to your computer from time to time, particularly the recovery backups and the Titanium backups. If you haven't created backups on your computer of all your phones folders in the internal and external divisions on your phone through a USB connection, another solution, in the event you lose USB, is to take out your SD card, insert it in a card reader and create matching folders for both internal and external (SD Card) on you computer and copy all the contents over directly from the card.
Takes a little time but backups can save your ass when needed.
