Papetation ROM by papete
OK, so the main question is why another Sense based ROM? well, now that our beloved Sensation is getting old, it seems that fewer developers are working on our phone and updates are not as fast as they used to be. As long as I own the Sensation I will keep on making my custom ROM (for personal use) based on official HTC releases, and given that to make a "public version" I just have to add a couple of things, I'm sharing with you all.
The ROM has a few tweaks to improve multitasking, which is the main reason I decided to make a custom ROM. The tweaks are not aggressive and stability should not be compromised in any way. So we could say that the "philosophy" of the ROM is to get a rock solid phone stretching its capabilities to the max.
This ROM has been posted for months now on a Spanish website, so it has been fully tested, I'm just bringing it to XDA and added back a couple of things to make it suitable for a more international clientele.
System details:
Android 4.0.3
Sense 3.6
Based on firmware HTC 3.33.401.55
Kernel SebastianFM
No visual changes, stock look
ROM Details:
SWAP: The ROM (during installation) detects if you have a SWAP partition on your SD card and uses it to improve multitasking
Tweaked memory management: I've tweaked the default memory management to keep apps on RAM for longer
ROOT with SuperSU
SQLite & Busybox
Unsecured boot.img
A lot of bloatware removed plus other things to make it leaner
Photo pics quality improved
Zipaligned
Zipalign check on every boot
De-odexed
init.d scripts support
System read-write support
Change bootanimation
MMS size capacity up to 1000k
/data folder on zip so you can add your apk's before flashing and have them all installed easily during installation
GPS config modified for faster satellites acquiring
FaceLock is disabled to free up space
Eliminated all loggers and sniffers from HTC, CIQ, etc
Facebook pics sync with other apps
System wide volume improved
.... and a lot of other minor tweaks
Required:
HTC Sensation/4G/XE S-OFF
4EXT Touch Recovery
Firmware 3.33 (Recommend to flash this firmware as it contains all we need plus the latest radio:11.76C, thanks to Kohr-Ah for the base) MD5: ee16e11cb270ec08144f198e4056cf70
A fast SD card: class 6-10
A SWAP partition on your SD
Firmware flashing:
Copy the PG58IMG.zip file on your SD card (root folder)
Check that the MD5 sum is ee16e11cb270ec08144f198e4056cf70, a corrupted file will brick your device. I'm not responsible for what you do to your phone!
Power off your phone and boot it in bootloader mode (volume down + power)
Select that we want to update the software (volume up for yes)
Once you receive the message that the software has been updated successfully, erase PG58IMG.zip from your SD card so it will not ask for the update again if you enter the bootloader.
1º Create SWAP partition:
Make a backup of your SD
With your SD in your phone enter bootloader and then to 4ext Recovery (Volume down + power, then select recovery)
Select "Tools-partition sd card"
It will ask if you want to format all the SD, or to save the information you have in it (fat32). You already have a backup, so select any option.
Next screen will ask for the size of the 1º sd-ext partition, we select "skip".
Next screen will ask for the size of the swap partition, I recommend 256
Confirm and make the SWAP partition
2º ROM flashing:
Download the ROM and save it on your SD card
Boot into bootloader (vol down + power), then select recovery
Do superwipe: (select wipe data/factory reset and then wipe cache+ dalvik)
Go back to the main menu and select "Install from SD" and then "choose zip from sdcard"
Look for Papetation ROM on your SD card list, select it and let the process begin
After it finishes the installation reboot you phone. First boot takes a while, so be patient
Changelog V-2.20 (January 10, 2013):
Updated base to 3.33.401.55
Firmware updated with new radio
Updated Superuser binary
Initial release on XDA-developers
Important notes:
* SWAP benefits are not immediate the phone takes a while to identify the packages it can move to SWAP (out of RAM). A phone that has been on for a while will behave better than a phone that has been on just a couple of minutes, as SWAP will be operating more effectively.
*If your mobile operator uses fast dormancy, use the build prop editor (included) and look for the line "ro.ril.fast.dormancy.rule", change the property key from "0" to "1". This should give you a battery benefit.

The problem with Lcd and Camera drivers will never be a problem. First in the world I solved the problem.
You only need to know before installing what is the combination of LCD driver - camera of your mobile phone. Know that during the setup wizard, the installer will ask you what is your driver combination.
Links to everything that is required for proper installation can be found in the following paragraphs.
An introduction is dueIf you are looking for a Rom that only changes the look and feel of the phone, which has a nice logo Samsung, or other (which I think is really pathetic), or having many beautiful colorful icons and also some beautiful 3D effects and maybe even makes a good coffee… then don't download my Rom is not for you!
But if you are looking for fluidity and speed, if you want a gps fix in a few seconds, if you want a wi fi stable and fast, if you want the best performance from your phone, then download it, this is your Rom!!

Installation Guide
King Rom 3.0 Evolution
through Cwm recovery
Link to download the King Rom 3.0 Evolution version for CWM recovery:King Rom 3.0 Cwm version
See here
Before installing the Rom is necessary that you know what version of drivers Lcd and Camera is on your device, because the installation with incompatible drivers would inevitably lead the phone to the brick. During the installation process, my Touch Installer you will propose different combinations of drivers Lcd and Camera. Simply indicate which is the your, and the installer will continue its task.
If you do not know what is the drivers combination of your device, you can check it through this easy steps:
Open the numeric keypad of the phone (as if you have to dial a phone number)
Enter the combination * # * # 116 # * # *
A window will open which among the many things listed, will also present the version of your Camera and Lcd drivers.
If this procedure does not work (does not work on all versions of this device) then you just enter in "Factory Mode":
Turn off your phone
Holding down the volume down button (be careful! Volume -), press the power
As soon as the phone is starting, you can leave the power button whilst continuing to hold down the volume button -
It will open a window with the words "factory mode" followed by one with various items, as in this example
You can leave the volume button
Now the volume button will need for scroll through the menu items
Go to "version" and enter by pressing the home button (middle bottom)
Now between the various items that appear on the screen there will also be those of your camera and LCD drivers (if you do not see scroll with the volume key that are below)
Now we are ready to install the King Rom
You may have already downloaded the zip file from the link above and copied the zip file in SD card.
Restart your device in Cwm recovery and make a backup of your device.
Then always from Cwm perform a full wipe:
-> Wipe data / factory reset
-> Wipe cache partition
-> Advanced -> Wipe Dalvik Cache
-> Advanced -> Wipe Battery Stats
-> Mounts and storage -> format system
-> Mounts and storage -> format EMMC
to make sure you have no problems!
You are ready to install the King Rom from Cwm with the usual:
-> Install zip from sdcard.
Will start the installation process with the touch controls. Be guided by the Touch Installer and when will be asked what is yours drivers combination, simply indicate which is the your from those listed, and the installer will complete the installation.
At the end of this at the request of the installer confirm that you want to reboot into CWM recovery and from here again:
-> Wipe cache partition
-> Advanced -> Wipe Dalvik Cache
Reboot and enjoy your new King Rom!
Enjoy my work. It's really powerful and optimized. Enjoy!!
P.S. I'm Italian and sorry if I have not written in good English
If you like my work, please feel free to give me a thanks and if you want give me a drink...
Cool!!

Enjoy & welcome to the world of LeeDrOiD
Foot Notes (In the footer of course)
A few things to note regarding the un-rooted option:
1. If you dirty flash selecting Un-Rooted, all traces of SuperSU will be removed, this will allow Magisk or an alternative root method to be installed.
2. Please complete 1 full boot before installing Magisk.
3. Users can run un-rooted if they wish, I can confirm that Android Pay and Pokemon Go both work after installing the ROM un-rooted.
4. All tweaks options requiring root access will be removed from tweaks if running un-rooted, 90% of these options can be configured in Aroma so you are only missing out on Kernel settings, as init.d is backed up and restored when flashing, your previous configurations will be retained, so you can flash with root, set up then re-flash un-rooted

F A Q
Q 1: After I flash your ROM and reboot my device, my device keeps rebooting/bootloop?
A: Make sure you flash the correct firmware
Q 2: Should I use a task killer on the LeeDroid ROM?
Not recommended, is you really want to, use the one that came with the rom.
Q 3: Backup? What is that?
A good idea is to back up all your data and settings from the phone before flashing a new rom with a full wipe. Best app available is Titanium Back up
The best way to back up the contacts is to sync it via HTC Sync or via your gmail.
Q 4: Are Nandroid and Titanium backup the same thing? How do I manage backups?
No, Nandroid backs up the ROM and Titanium backs up the applications. Nandroid is what you do using the recovery and it makes the exact image of your ROM along with the data.
Q 5: On what occasion will I lose my data (apps, contacts etc)?
Only when you flash the rom wiping data using the Aroma installer option. When you just flash a rom or a .zip from recovery, it will not wipe anything unless otherwise mentioned.
Q 6: I was on stock (or another rom from another cook) and I flashed LeeDroid rom, now I am having some problems.
1. Try to rebooting the Phone and see if it makes a difference.
2. Reboot into recovery and clear cache and dalvik, reboot the phone and clear data of the apps causing problem.
3. Reboot into recovery, reflash the rom choosing full wipe in the installer.
Q 7: How do I flash Full wipe and what does it erase?Reboot into recovery, install a zip from sd card option, select the rom, follow the Aroma installer and select "Flash with wiping all (or something to that effect*)
Q 8: The screen is not very responsive and is lagging.
Let the phone settle down a bit after you unlock it. It generally needs a few seconds to kick up the CPU.*
Q 9: The market is not installing anything. Gives error.
Reboot into recovery and select “clear cache partition”. And under settings - applications - Manage applications - under the Market app < Clear Data>.
Q 10: My battery is draining heavily.
When you first flash a ROM this is what happens. Give it atleast one full charge cycle and it should come back to normal. If required, reboot into recovery and clear battery stats. It is advisable to do so on 100%.
Common Opinion - Heavy battery drain is one thing that you cannot complain about on this rom, for sure. The battery life is much above average*
It's NOT recommended to empty the battery, it may course a poorer battery performance and life cyclus.*
Q11: Should I run the phone battery to zero percent, and what if it does??
A: Absolutely not! Both the current recoveries are giving problems while pulling the battery up from zero percent. If the phones dies off due to battery being zero, try to reboot it into recovery, flash the stock recovery. If it doesnt, then plug it into the wall charger and leave it for as long as it takes for you to boot it. Then flash the stock recovery, charge it fully and do your stuff.
Q12: MMS Problem?
A: Please check your APN settings.*
Q13: Some games that use the motion/G sensor are not working as they should.
A: Re-Calibrate your Gsensor –> Settings – Display – Gsensor Callibration
Q14: I dont like the animations. Dont want them.
A: Go to settings - display - animations.*
Q15: How do I change the bootanimation or the downanimation?
A: System\Customize\Resource or System/Data/Local. Replace the boot/down animation.zip file with the one you want. The new file must be named bootanimation.zip/downanimation.zip.
Mine
Way to go Lee!!!
I will up a stock rooted odex build in the next few days along with an option to flash back to stock, probably an RUU or ARUWizard + rom.zip combo.
Could you please make clear if I can somehow flash this on my O2 Device.
I'm on 1.32.206.15.
Or do I first have so get supercid or s-off?

Hi
Check the install path mentioned just above the download links, HTC Dev unlock your device, flash TWRP, backup & flash the rom zip.
Providing the install path matches, O2 UK will work without issue
No supercid nor s-off needed?
That rom reads so nice. I'm downloading. [emoji4]

No supercid or S-Off is required, simply the latest HTC update... remember to backup your current install
Added to the OP
A quick whistle stop tour of flashing a custom build
Unlock your device boot loader via HTC Dev > http://www.htcdev.com
Flash the latest TWRP recovery as posted by @Captain_Throwback > TWRP For the HTC One M9
Nandroid backup
Go to the Advanced TWRP section and select file manager
Navigate to "/dev/block/platform/f9824900.sdhci" > if this path exists you are good to go!!
Reboot your device and copy the LeeDrOiD rom. zip to your internal memory
Reboot to recovery (Power off > Hold Vol down & power > reboot to bootloader > reboot to recovery
Select the install option and locate the LeeDrOiD rom zip on your sdcard

It didn't want to play & wasn't visible so I went with the direct mount, mimicking the m8 install bud, from the feedback i have had it seems generic, flashed 2 devices numerous times with test builds and all is well ?
Uploading the guts of an RUU as we speak, ARUWizard from the M8 along with an official signed 1.32.401.8 as a fallback, once again tested numerous times
Good to see first ROMs poppin' up!

Very strange indeed, which version of twrp are you using? And did you check the MD5?
I installed this build twice to 2 different devices prior to upload.
About to go to sleep so check the md5 , if it matches, full wipe & try again, if it fails, restore your backup & I will take a look tomorrow evening..
Love how quick backup and restore is in this beast.
Edit: I am running a slightly modified version of twrp, link below but as always, use at your own risk. Team win and all affiliates will not be held responsible ?

Get some rest, you deserve it
Firstly: thanks for the efforts.
And do we really need the latest ota update to flash this? As soon as I got my hands on the phone I immediately flashed TWRP, so I'm in a bit of a predicament right now as I can't update via OTA right now...

I would say YES you need latest OTA before flashing this rom. Lee mentioned it for a reason so I would follow the instructions. Why don't you just restore stock and grab the OTA just to be on the safe side ?

Thanks.
Welcome, glad you're alive.
Incase you're wondering vivoforums got shutdown.
Anyway.
I tried the lastest 2.0 Custom ROM v6.12.2 by Bine and Drov44.
Both can flash without factory reset.
Bine's v6.12.2 Custom ROM has Gmail issue, there is a fix for that and
Viper4android works.
Drov44's v6.12.2 Custom ROM Gmail is working so as Viper4android.
I can't get Xposed Framework to work for both ROM. Not sure this can work with wipe though.
So I had to return to 6.11.1. I need that Youtube Adway and Gravity Box.
Do you know why it was shut down?
I found bine on a Russian forum, not sure where everyone else went. I was hoping it was a short term problem. It's a pity it's gone as there was a lot of useful information for the Xshot and Xplay.

I went to meizufans.eu (associated to vivoforums.com) created a account, PM the admin what had happened.
Here's the reply.
Complain at Mr.Eyckmans AKA HondaRacer. Because of his greed he refused to give it to us. Instead he tried to pull all of us over.

Yeah same. Lucky i saved most of my guide in a text document and Google Chrome Cached.
I already notice the RUS forum, can't seem to register.
Thailand Vivo Facebook is very active though.
So what ROM are you current using?
I'm still using 1.16.2. I am happy with the stability, all camera controls work as they should, too many complaints on the Chinese forums about deterioration in photo quality and the hard controls not working with zoom etc.
Also complaints about battery life was another factor for holding off.
Xposed framework is installed and all the modules are working. GPS is spot on, cell location works 100%, Google Playstore and services update without problems.
With Funtouch so heavily skinned, I see little point at this time to upgrade to Kitkat.
I did install Nova Launcher early on in my purchase, but saw no real gains in speed, and missed the layout and benefits of funtouch.
My wife has Lollipop on her Nexus 5,and having had a play with it, I don't think I'm missing out.
I will keep coming back to this thread as I may update when it looks like it's really worth it

Hi Wets,
Glad to found you here with the Xshot thread with you. Miss the Vivoforums. Anyway all is well now as I know you will keep this thread alive. Anything worth having in the new update (2.0 6.12.2)? Would like to have a crack on that MIUI Rom V6 as I have it in my MI2 but hate to flash & back if not that smooth as I'm expecting. Hope some people (Vivoforums members), will find this thread and can share their experience.

I don't know.
I'm on bine FunTouch 2.0 6.11.1 with a bit of modification like disable unwanted app, GPS fix and Gmail fix if you have. It's sufficient enough.
I find the GPS and Camera are working quite flawless but i'm no expert. The battery Screen On Time on FunTouch 2.0 is better than 1.2 in my opinion. I get 1 extra hour of Screen On Time.
For Nova launcher, i need the 5x5 home screen and the app drawer. Thus all my phone have Nova Launcher.
Agreed on the Lollipop. i tried CM 12.1, some of the feature is already featured in FunTouch 2.0.

Hi Wets,
Glad to found you here with the Xshot thread with you. Miss the Vivoforums. Anyway all is well now as I know you will keep this thread alive. Anything worth having in the new update (2.0 6.12.2)? Would like to have a crack on that MIUI Rom V6 as I have it in my MI2 but hate to flash & back if not that smooth as I'm expecting. Hope some people (Vivoforums members), will find this thread and can share their experience.

Thanks, I'm just one person. It will be grateful to share any information for the Xshot.
For 2.0 6.12.2 update, i think it's minor so nothing interesting. I can't seem to install Xposed Framework on any Custom ROM running 2.0 6.12.2, so i decided to fall back to 6.11.1.
I'm in the same boat as you, just to lazy to flash MIUI ROM since you have to Factory Reset. Could Backup APPS only in TWRP Recovery and restore it but i never tried it.
I'm glad to know that we have this thread in xda. I didn't get any update and information for the last 4 month after vivoforum been shutdown. I just want to know if is it true that vivo xshot got lollipop custom rom? Here's the link http://newblogphonereviews.blogspot.com/2015/03/working-tutorial-how-to-updateupgrade_96.html?m=0
The bad news is I can't get through the download link because of the survey ads something like that. Hope someone can give some good news that we can update or upgrade to lollipop. I really want to have lollipop run on our device. Looking forward to know further information. Thanks for this useful tutorial. Keep it up buddy. Sorry for my bad english

The website link you're providing is 100% Fake/Scam making users believe it's real.
Here's the reason.
- All duplicate content and put "device name"
- Putting ad survey means another red flag
- The comments are duplicate
Lollipop is still in progress i believe, just enjoy your current version you won't miss anything.
If you want to check any Lollipop update, Go to your OTA (Setting -> System Update) or Go to the Official Chinese Vivo Forum " http://bbs.vivo.com.cn/forum-138-1.html " to see any indication of Lollipop.
Thanks, will keep this Thread up-to date as possible.
Any ways Welcome.
I've rooted my xshot. I try to update to rev 2.5.3, but after the download completed and I try to install it, it say need to boot into recovery mod (stock recovery). But when I boot to recovery mod there's nothing to install. Then I reboot to see if anything goes wrong, it just show the notification that my xshot got new update, need to download it again. I tried several time to update but still the same. So I decided want to flash any stable custom rom. So any suggestions? Which one I should try? V6.11 or V6.12? If I flash one of these rom can I just flash it without wipe data/factory reset? Can you please attached more screenshot?

All version are stable, but some have Gmail issue there is a fix for that but require extra time and cannot install Xposed Framework etc.
Bine 6.10.3 - No issue.
Drov44 6.10.3 - I haven't tried it, should be ok.
Bine 6.11.1 - Has Gmail issue.
Drov44 6.11.1 - No issue according to users.
Bine 6.12.2 - Has Gmail Issue and Can't install Xposed Framework.
Drov44 6.12.2 - Can't install Xposed Framework.
You MUST Wipe/Factory Reset if you are coming from any Chinese and International FunTouch 1.2
If you're on Any Chinese 2.0 Custom ROM if can flash with NO Wipe/Factory Reset. Example are you're on FunTouch 2.0 v6.9.7 Custom ROM, it can Flash 6.9.8, 6.10.3, 6.11.1, 6.12.2 with no Wipe/Factory reset but if you are experiencing problem if might have to factory reset.

Just downloaded international 1.16. Flash it without factory reset, installation aborted. Try with different recovery, still the same. Need to unroot first so I can update. I have touch distortion issue for awhile and I don't know how to get rid of it, little bit slow to respond when typing. How can I unroot back so I can update to rev 2.5.3? It would be more cool if we have pure cm12 rom without funtouch. Hope somebody can provide it for us xshot user.

I never have touch distortion issue, probably use a different keyboard might solve it.
I'm really confused of your situation. Just answer those question below might help.
What current ROM you're using right now?
Is your device Rooted?
What current Recovery do you have?
What's the desire ROM you want to flash/install?
Yes I rooted my device using towelroot.apk,
I used twrp,
My desire rom is cm rom that have cm function like my old s4, they used to have plenty of rom that based on cm.
Let us forget about it. Now this is my current situation.
I flashed funtouch OS 2.0 6.12.2rus. I love the new ui.
The problem is...
Battery drain too fast,
Cannot use other launcher,
Can't detect flashdrive,
Didn't have option to select 3g only,
Others work perfectly. By the way, about my touch distortion it is because I used my powerbank damaged USB cable. I tried with other cable and it's working, but when I unplug the cable, the distortion still there. Thanks again for providing this thread buddy ?
Hopefully they solve the battery drain problem for the future update.
Did you Root your phone at 1.16 using Towelroot.apk?
For Battery life
You just flash a ROM recently, probably need to wait couple of days to judge the battery life. Does the battery drain by standby?
To change launcher
Go to Imanager -> App mgt -> Default App Setting -> The Default Desktop -> Now select your Launcher
I can connect a 8GB flashdrive using OTG cable working fine.
And 1TB Portable Hard Drive using the OTG Y cable it needs power though so i plug one of the Y cable in to a Power-bank. Working fine.
To connect 3g only is to go to Setting -> Mobile Network -> Network Mode -> Select 3G(pref)/2G
I can't comment about the Touch Distortion issue, never experience this before.
Hope this will help.
I found that Vivo Xshot is a good phone but less support even in Vivo chinese forum
ROM name: Lolli-P920
Version Android: 5.0.1 Lollipop
CM version: 12
Hello everyone and sorry for my poor English. I just wanted to inform you of all the features that will have this new rom:
-new Lancher Lollipop
-Android 5.0.1 installed (unofficial)
-new keyboard
-new status bar
-new applications (music, gallery, camera, etc ...)
-Improved wifi, internet browsing, resolution camera, video, streaming video
-Resolution images improved to 100%
-speed system improved by 15%
-Improved sleep mode
-best battery life
-Wireless boosted by 10%
-Improved scan wifi
-new home screen lollipop
- and much more...
------PLEASE READ ALL!!!------
as already I mentioned in my previous post this ROM will install Android 5.0.1 lollipop on our phone. The ROM based on Android 4.1.2 system, in fact, are the main features of andorid 4.1.2, but in practice, and a kind of amalgamation of andorid jelly beans and lollipop.
one of the first features found when you go to turn on the phone and the Manu phone unlock style andorid jelly beans but for practicality and speed are those of Android lollipop. another thing you notice, and the reaction of the system when you go to open an application. then there are other things that make this a unique ROM, that is all based on CyanogenMod 10 and 12 and of course a version modified by me personally and by other developers (Zeta99 and Unity Team).
Now I show you a list of all the new features:
-speed battery charge increased by 30%, comparable "almost" to that of the Samsung Galaxy S6;
-Stability system increased by 10%;
-the improvement of the streaming video and the reaction of the system;
-possibility to increase the RAM phone attraverso swaps that do not create any problems or crash the system;
-possibility to download almost all apps except those that are officially Android lollipop;
-new app including Xposed modules that enhance both the graphics and the phone is its performance;
-all phone app have been partially modified to make it so it is not wasted too much RAM or battery;
-autonomy battery stable (however advise you not straining too much, otherwise it leads to serious problems for both the battery and the phone is);
-and many other new features ...
BUT I'M SORRY tell you, but I HAD PROMISED THAT THE 3D IN A POST PAST ARE NOT ABLE TO PUT IT, WHY PHONE FIRST IS ABLE TO Protect it BUT THEN AFTER A FEW SECONDS WENT IN CRASH AND THEN I WAS FORCED TO REMOVE it, but never say never, in fact it may be that in a future update of the phone to be able to insert, without creating crash the phone. However, I can announce that soon will come two new updates:
-one that will bring Android 5.0.2, with some improvements and fixes minor bugs;
-one that will bring Android 6.0 Marshmallow, with major changes to most of the system is perhaps our dear beloved 3D!!!
the installation file weighs about 450 mb so I recommend you also leave free 1 GB to make room also backup and emergency system otherwise do my (recommended version 4.2.2 pacman).
But now I'll explain how to install the ROM on your LG-P920:
-for the first thing we connect our phone via USB cable to our PC;
-So We copy the RAR ROM Lolli 5.0.1.rar files in the main memory of the phone where we have the backup folder clockworkmod (if there is you then do this: press the power button + volume button upwards , the phone will reboot into recovery mode and you have a couple of options available to us we need backup and restore, let's go on with the volume keys and confirming with the power button, and go to select up and he will make us a backup version and all files, settings, etc ... we have in the phone, you now have the backup folder). "To download clockworkmod clockworkmod.apk write on the internet and download the apk file on your phone."
-after clockworkmod downloaded on our phone we turn off our phone is press the power button + volume button upwards, the phone will reboot into recovery mode and you have a couple of options, we need to us "wipe cache partition "and" wipe data / factory reset ".
-Let's go first to wipe cache partition and run it and after aniamo to wipe data / factory reset and run it.
-Now go to "backup and restore" with the volume keys and confirming with the power button, and then select Restore and select ROM Lolli 5.0.1.rar
- After confirming with the power button the phone will install the package there, waiting lob install the package and now we will have our phone with Android 5.0.1 (unofficial) installed
CAUTION:
1. do not install the "gapps.rar" files because the applications we need are already in the system rar files.
2. Before installing the system, make a backup "total!" our current system (pictures, music, contacts, messages, etc ..) and save it on your computer.
3. in addition to the system that you want to download mettetene also one of "emergency", because if the current gaming system that you downloaded does not work, bring in recovery mode system and install the emergency system and then install the backup you made before .
4. for every problem in the messages ask and I'll try to make a general answer to the problem you have.
5. do not totally rely on the system (for everyday use) because there are still some problems that I will solve in the future with new versions that come out.
6. the phone is responsive to commands you give it to avoid thermal warming much will always recommend every6. the phone is responsive to commands you give it to avoid thermal warming much will always recommend every time you use an app to close it when you do not need or use CLEANMASTER or other application to clean the remaining ram.
7. Enjoy your phone updated
