I bought a Sojitec case for my J7 2016 version. Everything fits except the volume button. The case's volume button is higher than the phone's button by 1 or 2 cm.
I tried to stretch it but it doesnt work. Despite this, when I press the decrease part of the button, it increases volume.
Is it possible that theres a physical difference between the 2015 & 2016 versions of the J7?

Hello there
I bought an android 2.3 tablet from Buy In Coins
http://www.buyincoins.com/7-epad-1-...t-pc-webcam-wifi-4gb-512mb-product-10534.html
and lookd like the "Sirius" model at Light in the Box
http://www.lightinthebox.com/sirius...e-touch-screen-1-2ghz-wifi-1080p_p235246.html
With Android System Info it gets:
PU armeabi-v7a
hardware - focus-s5pv210
board s5pv210bena
device same as board
display GINGERBREAD.eng.version=bena-20110913_182005
Memory
Storage 2gb
RAM it reads 380mb
So I really can´t know what is exactly this model
The back is white with some info about battery and ROHS, FCC stuff
and in the front the camera is in the middle
the button layout lookes like Aishuo s2, with difference from camera part and the speakers (mine) are in the top cover.
So what i want to know if its possible to put android 3.0 (or 3.1) or 4.0 here, so i will be able to use some apps that are only for 3 and 4
and the touch is not well calibrated, so if possible to know how to fix it, since when i use virtual keyboard it always "clicks" the button above the one i want.
tks !
Do i need to post more specs about the device ?
tks
[introduction: I'm Ikmalhidayat, just joined the xda forum., although always visits here for infos. but still, im just joined so, hello~]
I have a small smartphone from 2011, Samsung Galaxy Mini GT-S5770.
I am pleased with its practicality and its simplicity~ Although this phone is now very obsolete and is even lower end then entry phones today, this phone leads my everyday life. I even compared to newer phones like Samsung Galaxy Mega 2, Oppo Neo 5, Lenovo S650, Lenovo A7-30 A3300-HV, etc. But, my phone, by far, is the most easiest to use (by my opinion and those phone owners)
Still in Froyo ver. avoiding Gingerbread upgrade because of ram usage i saw on Galaxy Young (1st gen)'s ram usage.
But, after its 3 years of leading my life, it starts to show its aging. Issues,
1. Home button needs to press harder (as hard as i can actually)
2. Short battery life
3. Proximity sensor not working
4. Broken pieces (USB cover lost, microSD cover breaks, scratches over the screen, back cover)
5. Twice incidents happen (the phone wont charge and wont detect. had to pull out the battery and charge with external universal charger and leaving the phone overnight)
6. Internal memory's getting full, even most of apps uninstalled
I dont planned to by a new phone for now. But i need phone in case my phone dies. Although i have a budget to actually buy 2 Asus Zenfone 4 (4" ver), I want to make use my phone till the end of its life.
In case, i need a new phone suits for me as well. I like my Galaxy Mini more than newer phones because of its simplicity and easy yet smart (for me)
I've been looking phones like Asus Zenfone 4, Oppo Neo 5, Samsung Galaxy Trend Plus, Galaxy S Advance (old, dual core), Galaxy SII, etc. I dont like phones bigger than 5" because is too big for my pocket. Since im a gamer, i would like a powerful phone as well (with OTG, i would rather connect to a controller than bigger screen). But since im in money issues, i cant buy too expensive phone.
Any phone models that you can recommend me? Requirements,
Dual core ARM cpu or Intel
At least 512MB ram
Adreno 302 and above, faster than Mali-400MP2 (was disappointed with MaliMP2, except if it is quad core like Mali-400MP4)
At least 4GB internal storage (i have 2gb and 8gb microSD, always swapping)
at least multitouch screen
Not more than 5" display
at least 5MP with [email protected] recording
Im interested with Asus Zenfone 4 but i dont really like ZenUI. since im using TouchWiz v3.0, i like the simplicity and of course, Task Manager! (long press Home key and task manager appear). like the ColorOS from OPPO Neo 5 but like TouchWiz more. If possible, i want to have a phone very similar to my Galaxy Mini
6050mAh Ulefone Power Will Be An All-rounder
Featuring a 6050mAh super-capacity battery, the 5.5-inch Ulefone Power is officially announced today with the price of USD199.99. Since we learned this name for the first time, half a year has passed. So what kind of a device has taken Ulefone so long to make? Will it be a rival of the USD390 Kionee M5 Plus？
The highlighted 6050mAh battery, packing the Sony li-polymer cell, is supposed to last 4 days for light use on a single charge. A 9V/2~3A charger that adopts the Pump Express Plus technology will be able to fill up the battery in 2 hours and 5-minute charge is said to support 2 hours of calling. Travelers may activate the energy saving mode on Ulefone Power for longer use and they can even make the phone to charge other devices when necessary.
Given such big a battery, we can only pray the Power will not be too thick or heavy like a brick. Fortunately, 9.5mm thickness plus 190g weight sounds not frustrating at all. And a slightly curved back is expected to offer more comfort to the palm.
Claiming “no compromise in aesthetics”, Ulefone has followed their conventional designing language to use the 2.5D Corning Gorilla 3 glass, solid metal frame and “halo” touch buttons on Ulefone Power. Color-wise, users can choose among three versions, white, dark blue, and white with wooden back cover. Since its battery is non-removable, Ulefone Power has adopted a side-way SIM tray which can house dual SIM cards or one SIM plus one micro SD card.
Instead of downgrading other specs to balance the increased cost on battery, Ulefone has decided to make the Power their new flagship. That’s why they have employed popular and proven components like MTK6753 octa-core 64-bit chipset, 5.5-inch AUO 1080P LTPS display, 3GB RAM, Sony IMX214 13MP camera with double flash.
But what makes Ulefone Power special is some extra functions. The fingerprint scanner enables
five finger IDs with each for a specific purpose, such as unlocking, shutter, and app starter. With infrared emitter and a pre-installed remote control app, Ulefone Power can serve as the remote controller of over 3,000 home appliances. And a smart key near the power button is able to start the camera or voice recorder by clicking or holding, respectively.
Ulefone will start to ship Ulefone Power from January 10, 2016 with Android 5.1 pre-installed. In February, Ulefone Power will come with Android 6.0 and existing users will be able to experience the new software by upgrading.
This post is to centralise information on status of custom ROMs, bootloaders, Marshmallow etc for this amazing value-for-money handset. I'll probably start a project soon, although the issue is that this phone has a relatively small (UK) userbase.
If you have any technical information regarding unlocking the bootloader of this phone, please share it.
Specification (Full specification at GSMArena):
5.5" 1080p screen
2GB RAM
MicroSD (using 128GB in my personal handset)
Snapdragon 615 octa-core (pretty decent)
Adreno 405 GPU (adequate)
13MP front camera with Sony sensor (decent IMO), 5MP rear camera
Front capacitive menu buttons
3000mAh battery
NO Gorilla glass
Released June 2015
Made by ZTE, but appears to be custom (ZTE don't make a phone with this exact spec)
Personal thoughts:
Unbeatable value for money right now
Camera is surprisingly decent - very impressed
Screen is good but lacks tempered glass
The tempered glass screen protector I installed messes with colour reproduction - screen is colder and poorer shadow performance in movies
Feels really good to hold (I hated the feel of square phones like the OnePlus One etc)
Physical buttons are great
This is a lot bigger than my Nexus 4
Use Kingroot and the Purity app it also installs to remove the bloatware that comes with it (****ty vodafone apps)
Vodafone Smart Ultra 6 (Black) on Amazon.co.uk (Prime) - £115
Vodafone Smart Ultra 6 (Silver) on Amazon.co.uk (Prime) - £115 (I bought this exact item myself for £113.40)
Unlock code on Ebay.co.uk - £2.25 (I used this successfully myself, code came in 15 mins)
FYI there is also a 4.7" £65 variation on Amazon.co.uk, even better value for money!
Android Versions, ROMs:
No custom ROMs are currently available
No Marshmallow yet!
Latest available official version is 5.1.1 (Build VDF-995NB01-UK_MR02b) as of Jan 15th 2016
A forum user has said that ZTE reported to them that Android 6.x update is in testing (citation needed).

This one is not a Smart Ultra 6 with 4.7" display for a cheaper price, it's a totally different device, it's a Smart Prime 6, made by Alcatel, if I'm not wrong.
Permanent root:
Use kingroot 4.9.0 to get temporary root (several times if necessary, dont reboot now or loosing root)
Flash recovery-twrp2870-p839v55-5.1.1.img (if running lollipop) from modaco (use flashify for example)
Reboot recovery
Install update-SuperSu-v2.46.zip from recovery
Permanent root done
uninstall kingroot
Pity that kingroot only works temporary (can confirm this)
ROM update
Got this software update today:
VDF-995NB01-UK09b
Still android 5.1.1 though, so update must be to Vodaphone modifications.
With the Smart Ultra 7 on the market with android marshmallow; I doubt this great phone will ever make it past lollipop
I spoke to a vodafone advisor online and he said this update was marshmallow so i installed it and its not!!!!
Just received VDF-995NB01-UK07b "update" on mine this last Sunday the 8th which only installed the security updates for 1st May 2016 so I'm still way out of date! Their numbering seems to be all over the place anyway as my current ROM version is VDF-995NB01-UK09b!!

Thanks for the summary! Helped a lot!
Ultra 6 running MM

Just got the update for our Ultra 6's to VDF-995NB02-UK10d which now has them running 6.0.1 Marshmallow but a word of warning to prospective updaters; this version turns OFF the ability to save apps on the SD card which is a major pain! (if storage size is an issue for you...)

It is nice to hear that Android 6 is finally available. I find it slightly surprising, given that Android 6 was released 17 months ago, and Android 7 is now current, but it is better than nothing. Personally, I have sold my Ultra 6 for nearly what I paid for it and moved on to phone with a gyroscope.
I've read a few reviews on P11 Pro G2, including the latest one on XDA. Can anyone tell me if the build quality (as well as smooth operation) of this device is worse than the first generation? Because that's what I got from the review (and also from inspecting psref.lenovo.com regarding the case material).
With the first generation, my impression was "almost like iPad" for both quality of the materials and smoothness of operations.
Personally I think the best one of the series is the "Lenovo P11 Pro TB-J716F". It's got a aluminium case all round, touch as nails... 5.8mm thickness, only 485g, sd870 CPU, UFC 3.1 storage... Dual 8mpnfront cam, dual 13/5 rear cam. Atmos Dolby quad speakers.... It's a pretty sweet package.
I have both
The build is identical
Similar speakers and sound quality
However,...
Gen 1 has fingerprint scanner while gen 2 doesn't
Gen 2 has slightly better display but gen 1 display is a bit bigger
Gen 1 is slightly thinner
Gen 1 stays at R while gen 2 will get T

Hey thanks for this. I have a gen 1 however it has an awful black crush issue in low brightness settings in dark rooms, and it kills dark greys. Do you experience a similar problem with your gen 2? I would like to recommend a Gen 2 to someone
I don't think mine has that issue on both.
I did a test
1. set both on dark
2. open YouTube app
3. set brightness to minimum
4. turn room light to low
The grey part looks normal
