Vernee Mars Pro - Security Discussion

Hello gents,
I am pretty sure this is the correct place for this post, my apologies to the mods if not.
I preordered the Vernee Mars Pro, which on paper sounds rather impressive. My only concern with the device is that not too long ago there was a bunch of hubbub about malware being on devices originating from china.
I understand that if my concern is that deep, that i shouldn't be buying Chinese devices, but ehh?
Anyways, I was hoping that someone might have some knowledge into looking into firmware to check for said malware. I would very much appreciate a little help when I get mine in.
Cheers!

A lot of Chinese phones do contain bloatware and other forms of crapware. It can include malware, but not always, it is a gamble really. Unfortunately, I am not sure about anything related to this. But I do follow one practice if the phone doesn't have custom ROM, I usually don't buy it. I tend to wipe original ROM away and add a custom one, that is the safest way to protect your data from chinese providers.

Chinese phones are officially not allowed for people in Armed Forces. I read it somewhere that they send whole text messages to servers in china...
Anyways get a custom rom ,install xposed framework and then get Xprivacy.
Then block any existing malware

Don't be afraid beacuse it is chinese phone. They made some bautifull mobs. I have Jiayu S3 for two years - best ROMs, android 7.12, but it is somewhat slow, after 2 years. I look to buy this one too Or it is better to wait something with MTK x30
There is one opinion on youtube..it says that Mars pro has bad quality tone in calls

does anyone have allready a working version of TWRP and the bootloader for the Mars Pro?

About bloatware in android of Vernee Mars Pro:
On mine, "CheckChineseBackdoor.apk was checked positive and App-remov find a "com.adups.fota" as "mise à jour" (updates) application ..... It was configured to be able to modify system (!) and you had to be root to erase it .... before uninstalling i hope desactivate "modify system" is true and stop application too.

Yeah, adups, dodgy as! Amazon just announced they are pulling all Blu phones from their store, they don't say why exactly, just privacy issue, so seems likely they have identified some new issue with adups.

Root with KingRoot
Hello guys,
i tried to root the Vernee Mars Pro with KingRoot byt it's not working.
Has anyone succesfully rooted the device?

i need to find the mars_pro20170630 rom. where can i get it. my phone stuck at boot logo

the exact stock rom name is mars_pro_21070630154451

Yeah, I guess fair point stands, right now a lot of Chinese market phones flagged for backdoors, malware and just in general a mess. It seems they are using the same either Android distributor or software distributor, that just adds plenty of unnecessary apps.

I accidentally activated the e-ink mode.
Unfortunately I can not disable it because you can not pull down the notification bar.
Does anybody know how to deactivate the e-ink mode to have a color display again?

I don't have a Vernee or even an e-ink phone but guess you can go to the "gear wheel" for settings in apps screen to get to the phone settings?

[Q] Galaxy S4 Clone screen not working

Hello,
I've recently bought Galaxy S4 clone and it was working great, till I tried rooting it.
The rooting was through *android kingo root* and everything went flawless. After 15 minutes, I noticed that the screen is black but there's backlight led. I thought it might be out of charge or any silly reason, tried every possible solution but couldn't get any help.
The phone turns on and I can receive calls and reply by guessing the place, I also can hear the unlock/lock sounds. But no luck in turning screen on.
Any help guys ?
this is urgent
Bump.
Sorry but the case is realy urgent. Please enlighten me with any help. /:
This is really important guys /:
Hope anyone can give me a hint ..
Clone
Don't know about a clone but i can think of just two things,
First maybe it's a hardware problem and need to be repaired!
Second if it is caused due to rooting or anything then you can try flashing the official firmware of your device (if available).

Well I think its a hardware problem, because the phone starts up and I can hear sounds.
I could get a screenshot from the phone and see the karnel/baseband ... etc (Attachments)
I don't know where I could find a replacement screen or a rom flashed. Could you assist me with some hints or links?
Thanks.

A screen you should be able to order from china. A rom, now that will be harder to find as clone have almost no support or developers.

Well see thats the issue with clones. No telling what part they used from where.
This is all I could find.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2512243
To be honest it maybe cheaper to replace the device with an authentic version from somewhere like swappa or something.

Lenovo X3 Vibe

Hi
Does anyone know whether the Lenovo Lemon X3 Vibe will be rooted and on XDA?
Thanks
Aussie
As far as I've heard, bootloader is unlocked here. So it should be very easy. But I'm not an Android programmer and also interested in this device. It must be rooted and no other way around! Phone without root is just a toy for blondies
i have lenovo vibe x3 lite (A7010), also interested in root.
Lenovo vibe x3 lite
Hi.
I have the Lenovo vibe x3 lite ( A7010 ) and searched a lot , but not found any efficient method to root , someone knows a way to Root this device ? Thanks.
Hi XDA,
I have a Lenovo vibe X3, it's great! Stereo speakers are loud and the battery life seems really good. It's a lot bigger than I was expecting.
I have the EU version, X3a40. I was hoping someone could help me. I was expecting this to come with a FM radio app- Lenovo's official website says it does. Unfortunately there isn't one on the device, but strangely it looks like there IS one on the Chinese version (see Youtube reviews). As I don't have a big data allowance, streaming radio isn't an option for me so the FM radio is pretty important as I like listening to news when going out.
I tried installing some FM APKs from other Lenovo devices (downloaded from XDA), unfortunately they either don't install , or if they do install they just crash on opening.
I have better success speaking to my bedroom wall than getting answers from Lenovo support so I was wondering if one of you guys could let me know if there is an APK available. In return I'm happy to answer questions on this phone. Thanks guys!
I got mine 2 days back.
I can confirm that on Indian variant (x3a40) the bootloader is locked.
The simple fastboot oem unlock command couldn't unlock it.
Also, I was unable to root it using any of the usual tricks or any of the guides currently available.
I will dig more and let you guys know if anything changes.
I'm really interested in this phone. I was debating buying it from merimobiles £275 ($405), as I can't seem to find it cheaper anywhere else.... Well that delivers to the UK anyway.
Also according to the merimobiles you can get the phone pre-rooted.

This program is not doing anything for lenovo vibe x3, just reboot your phone and send to this site information that it was successful. U can see on the site that your phone was granted permanent root. After its going to Twitter that your phone with your firmware can get root. Checked with many phones before.

For unrooted device you don't have a lot of options. have you tried this from GPlay: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.larphoid.droidradio&hl=en
or any of branded apps like: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.motorola.fmplayer&hl=en
http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/sony-m...ions/fm-radio-4-0-eks-8-android-apk-download/
At least they are not part of the system and could be installed as apk. If none of them works, waiting for the root is the only solution.
Is there a lot of modification of AOSP on Lenovo X3a40? Gapps are fully supported (contacts, calendar)? Dialer is stock or Lenovo? Does it has internet (sip) calling option in the menu?
I had this phone for 5-6 days (bought the same day it got launched in India); its an awesome phone for $300, Great sound & display, decent performance, an Okey-camera,no heating(thnx to SD808); But No rooting avaiable, bootloader is locked; lenovo forum isnt helpful. So after 6 days I returned it. Now waiting for mi5/honor 7 dual sim. Cant imagine about a phone without root

Huawei Watch 2 China Version

Hello guys!
I purchased this from China and realise I cannot change the language to english. And also having to use the China Version of Android Wear. Is there any way to flash and change the system language or change to global android wear 2.0?
I have my eyes on this too and would like to know myself!
On the original it looked fairly straightforward, hopefully it is on this one too...
You don't have to use android ware 2.0 chinese version. I have global version installed on my iPhone and have successfully connected to huawei watch 2. I could enable Feed and sync calendar cards, email cards etc.

I don't want to risk flashing HW1 firmware on this.
BTW, is it possible that the developer preview for Huawei Watch 2 will also be available to the public? Is it also possible to just ask Huawei for the files and flash it myself?
They provided a QR which helped me download the Android Wear Chinese Version but it still shows the text in Chinese even if the language in my phone is set to English. Are you saying that there is an Android Wear China App (com.google.android.wearable.app.cn) which can make the HW2 text in English? I think I could live with that for now, else I'll just wait for the English Version before using this daily...
(I can't post the actual link from the QR code, but it's just from VMall dot Com)

you are right, better not risk to flash other ROM, just wait a bit, developers will give us all we need. I am waiting too.... I am trying to get custom recovery on it with no results...... will wait too... you cant set watch to english, no way at all. forget it until we will see an international ROM
I am also about to purchase the china version, but need to know it it will be able to flash the international version later on. Can I assume it will be possible?

Hi, I finally given up the 2nd gen and would opt for the first gen even it is actually more expensive.
the 2nd gen is simply... a toy watch. The original one would seem sustain better.
But my last concern would be battery, will the 2nd gen last much longer than the first one?

Nice is not what people say it is, is what you really like, this is for all things, always.
in second, if you dont mind to spend a lot (my personal opinion) in a watch that was out on 2015 is ok, but 2thgen is better in performances, pixels, ram, battery and so on.
I have apple watch steel ($$$$$$) that is perfect for iphone owners(me), huawei 1th gen, good for sure and really nice, now time to try something more powerfull and also price is finally "real".
anyway, as I say, up to you.
battery is a bit better than 1thgen cause is bigger but not that much, depend on how you will use it, gps and gyro for exaple are consuming a bit, but it will be not a problem for you cause 1th gen have not gps....
by the way, why you are care about version? you are in HK you should find international version too. I always buy my phones there, all international.

The international version in HK will usually cost at least 40% more than that in China. That's the only reason.
On second thought, I am getting an Huawei 2 despite the Huawei 1 is much more appealing and better build quality. In any way it is a tech toy. The battery should sustain no longer than 3 years and it worths nothing by then. So keeping the toy with latest techology would be a good choice.
under what circumstances you can use the china watch except using it as an digital watch?
Almost all app are incompatible. Not even the spotify. Only those happened to be in the Huawei app store will run.

Hello mcdull,
i dont use spotify but i can ensure you I have a lot of apps working, just examples: XDA, eurosport, myemail, currency, some weather apps and others. of course all apps I have in to phone can push notifications even if they are not installed into watch.
I tried to extract micro.apk from android phone apps and it works too.

I most case I were not able to get the app running, either with the start up screen or just without data connection (in app). I cannot see gmail there as well which I need most. Skype wont connect as well.. though I dont use it much.

Vernee X

Hi All,
I recently got a Vernee X, and i have been attempting to Root it, to no avail. i am aware that some of these chinese phones have locked boot-loaders, or that you have to request to be allowed to root certain ones, im assuming that its something along these lines, as i am unable to root in the usual manner.
My question is does anyone know, if its possible to root, or is it too new, or if i do in fact need to unlock the bootloader, if so how to do it, or if i am missing something? i appreciate any advice, that anyone might have, i figured perhaps someone else has been in this position before.

I recently got a Vernee X, and i have been attempting to Root it, to no avail. i am aware that some of these chinese phones have locked boot-loaders, or that you have to request to be allowed to root certain ones, im assuming that its something along these lines, as i am unable to root in the usual manner.
My question is does anyone know, if its possible to root, or is it too new, or if i do in fact need to unlock the bootloader, if so how to do it, or if i am missing something? i appreciate any advice, that anyone might have, i figured perhaps someone else has been in this position before.

Hi you can find the twrp here: https://www.needrom.com/download/twrp-vernee-x/
you can find flashtool here: https://www.needrom.com/download/vernee-x-pro/
after flash twrp install magisk version 14.
finally install magisk manager.apk.
so you've got root permissions. Enjoy
get we ever an Custom Rom?The Vernee Software is very slow
You are a legend my dude! worked like a charm (+rep) thanks a bunch :good:
you need to unlock the bootloader.search on google there is a guy who has created an unofficial twrp 3.1.1 anda unofficial 3.2.1 for vernee x. once you unlock the bootloader then you install twrp then you can root with super su or magisk manager. i know ha tmuch as i was planning on waiting ot se if vernee would release oreo for the x before i decided on tha proces.i am hoping that this community can come up with some custom roms for the vernee x . .

I confirm that the Rom stock has several bugs. then it is very slow. this smartphone has a hardware that could be exploited better. i am hoping that this community can come up with some custom roms for the vernee x . I hope soon
after a few weeks of use, I can say that even if from the hardware point of view this smartphone vernee x is really remarkable:
- battery is excellent: even with various stresses I can finish three days. Never seen such a thing. And, also, it recharges really fast.
- satisfactory display and , with its 6 GB of ram and 128 ROM worth the money spent.
unfortunately, everything is not supported by adequate software.
photo and video compartment can be improved.
The fingerprint works only for unlocking but does not have any influence (practically it is as if it did not exist) on the apps that support it.
I tried to install sensor management apps but they do not work. Sometimes he "feels" his finger once and then goes off, sometimes he does not "feel" it.
There are no gesture like the dt2w or better known as double tap to awaken the cell (but is it so complicated to implement it in kernel?).
When I open some applications, for exple e-mail app, it takes a while to view leaving a nice white screen for about ten seconds.
I really hope that there are improvements because I would really like to abandon it: by now I have taken pleasure in the tranquility that gives me the battery
The phones battery life is excellent.
Both SIM CARDS are 4G
The Cameras are not very good - you need sunny days
It's smooth once it gets going but stutters here and there.
It is very well built with great button travel and very low tolerances with the fit and finish.
The screen is adequate. It's well constructed, sharp but the blacks are grey and there is some light bleed.
The back cover is some form of plastic NOT metal.
It feels good in the hand - even though it is quite thick. It's a very comfortable phone.
I have several flagship phones and you can feel, hear and see the difference. However - @200$ this is a supreme effort.
The phone looks like a flagship, handles nearly as well and absolutely buries everything in sight with its battery.
It has an FM radio!
It's very difficult for me to put this phone down!
Onward.
any rom development from any one for vernee x . please i want to see a lineage 14.1 or 15.1 port to the vernee x .
please i want to see also madOS port to the vernee x. i hope soon

The phone must be root in order to pick and enable, right now you don't have the option.

Question New Owner...soon :)

I just ordered a Pro version from Lenovo.
Just how happy is everyone with their US stock version?
I have Xaoxin Pad Pro (original name) from China with global ROM and I quite happy with it.
Can I ask you a question after you get your tablet? I need to check something in the firmware. You'll just have to look in a certain folder.

I have it. Got it yesterday. Did you get the info you need or would you like me to look at mine for you?
It's a TB-J706F.
I can't figure out what they're talking about in the Quick setup about attaching the Pen. They talk about some hook to push the holder on to but damned if I see anything on mine. I don't think that double sided tape will hold on the texture of the cover/stand for the back of it either.

Yes, mine is the same.
Please look inside the /system/app_backup folder, what folders do you see there? You can just list them or take a screenshot. I want to compare. It seems, Lenovo makes one version of ROM for all countries.
Sorry, I don't know anything about the pen, I just have a tablet with a cover.
Attached screen shot.
Not feeling very happy with mine right now. Maybe I need time to get used to it but I don't like productivity mode. Seems to me some things don't work. Like clicking on an apps full screen button.
I'm trying to run Kodi on it. The youtube addon is slow.........Kodi 18.9 ArmV8A 64bit. I guess that's the one I should use. Kodi 19.1 and the Aeon Nox Silvo skin don't like the touch screen. Don't like the three navigation buttons timing out, wish they would just stay on screen.
Disappointing when I went to Lenovo's site to register it and was told there is no warranty??? I registered it anyway.

Ahaha, same content as mine. Yes, Lenovo is very-very lazy, one ROM for whole world.
Yandex* is russian company,
and you only see this **** on you because the russian government has passed a law to install some russian soft on new smartphones and tablets. And stupid lazy Lenovo rushed to implement this law.
They just stole our hard drive space because you can't delete it.
If you install and run LenovoRUapps, it will take you to Lenovo's website, where it says about it and where you can download this very Russian software. Why would Lenovo install it in the system partition and steal our space?
