Vernee X - General Questions and Answers

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.

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

Got mine and love it to bits. Amazing for the price.
Would like a custom rom more than rooting but rooting would be good too Something to clear up the programs and stuff to make the most of the 1.5ghz dual core.

Hi,
I have a zoostorm 3305 that I want to get an external 3g dongle working on. After googling I believe i need to root it first, but I'm new to rooting, and not sure what software/drivers i need and where to get them. I would love some help if you have any on offer.
Cheers
Andychat..
how good are these ?
speed in general
Speed of keyboard popping up when in chrome ?
viewing angles (I totally hate poor viewing angles)
updates
I am more than happy with the speed. Keyboard delay pop-up can sometimes be slow.(its usually when emails are being synced). I improved the touchscreen response by using an app to recalibrate it. I think its hindered by the supplied screen protector.
The only thing I can't do is mobile 3g internet. I think I need to root.
I'm. Awaiting I bit of help from the guru's on this forum.
Cheers

I don't think they are bad. I don't really watch TV or movies on it. It doesn't seem any worse than my Samsung so phone.
Not sure if this helps you much. I would recommend one if you don't have the finances for the Samsung Tablets or the ipads.

sounds good
I did have the Gemini JoyTab 9.7 Duo
I RMA'd it cause as soon as you tilted it slightly right the whole right side washed out
it was so bad that even flat direct ahead you could see the start of the right side polarize wash out with what must be only a few degrees off centre
fine all 3 others ways, I though mine my have been faulty till I went in to a staples and checked their display model, exact same issue.

I sent you a PM via YouTube (Sorry), couldn't post on here for some reason but sorted now.
I have never rooted Android (very new to it) and can't find anything solid about rooting Zoostorm Playtab 10" Tablet. I really don't want to brick it.
I was wondering if you may be able to help me as it sounds like you have rooted the Playtab successfully?
Do you have any links to or name of the guide / firmware you used for the root?
Has the root improved the overall performance of you Zoostorm Playtab as mine can often freeze or delay mid use with the stock firmware?
Cheers mate.

I'm new to Tablets so not sure how useful this can be because i havn't used many others but...
speed in general is quite good however it seemed to run faster when it was new and "fresh" but now having since installed more apps, it seems to temporarily freeze mid-use e.g. going through settings tabs, launching apps etc. I often get a "not responding" message and choice to wait or quit. Waiting seems to work but as this is happening more and more, it's a concern and hence why i'm looking to root.
There is sometimes a 1 or 2 sec delay with keyboard popping up (not sure in Chrome, i'm talking general use). Its not a problem for me.
Viewing angles are reasonable to me but you can see it wash out when looking from the sides but I tend to look at it straight on anyway.
To be honest you get what you pay for (currently £114-£120 on Amazon UK / eBuyer) and it's not bad at all, especially if I can figure this freeze issue.
Hope this helps.

Not sure if you sorted it but these tablets are pretty unbrickable as are most RK3066 based tablets, I've done more wipes & reflashes on this tablet than I care to remember.
You can try to flash the original ROM from here - http://downloads.zoostorm.com/drivers/android/PlayTab/
I did manage to flash a build of CyanogenMod 10 based on another RK3066 tablet on this tablet but it wasn't really what you would call stable, it had screen rotation bugs, random reboots plus Wifi wasn't working at all & as I'm not a developer I soon reverted back to stock, for the most part the tablet runs pretty well with it's stock ROM, 3G works well with the PPP Widget app etc.
It was either this one - http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/39750-romgenerickmod-jb41cwmzip-for-pipo-u1max-m11/
Or this one - http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/41777-romcyanogen-10-for-rk3066-wip/
I'm just glad it has a working CWM Recovery & is easy to root

I'm really digging mine too. Most times when opening Dolphin browser or other browsers it will hang for 5-8 secs sometimes. You guys get that? only think that pees me off really.
If we could get it a tad snappier, would be great too!
How do I get flash on this thing?
I've also got the freezing issue occasionally, not sure what causes that.
My main issue at the moment is I can't use "OpenVPN for Android". It claims it can't access /dev/tun so it doesn't work (ticking the box to fix this in CM doesn't work as it's not rooted). Does anyone know of a fix for this?

Freezing is caused by software trying to access root imho. Avoid software that needs root access.

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

Vernee Mars Pro

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

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.

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

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.

Edit: Amazon restored Blu phones to their store a few days later

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?

There should be a left back arrow at the left side of the top. Did you manage to sort it? maybe a restart would do it

Project Treble

So in some of the news articles a lot of people were complaining that moto have a bad track record when it comes to updates. I'd like to point out that these new phones are releasing with Oreo which means that they have project treble. This makes it far far easier to adapt updates and roms to these phones so even if moto don't bother expect to have all the options! XD
Hi,
First we need to see a method for installing Magisk and a Custom Recovery!
Any news?
These phone always bring lots attention from development so , there is no need to worry about !

Certainly! But no one has this phone for now. The G6 Plus should arrive the 7th of may (mine too). But there's no G6 Plus section on XDA at the moment...

It should be arriving today. Once I have it set-up, I'll try to say something useful about it
Edit: the phone arrived. Setting it up now. Until now everything is smooth. The screen is really nice. Speed is great. Pity to see that 'out of the box' 20% of the internal 64 gb is already taken by the OS and it's native apps.
For now I didn't figure out if the OS is 64 bit or 32 bit.
The camera(s) is (are) really awesome! For now no regrets! But the phone still has a locked bootloader and no root. So for now I can't really check everything. But that's only a matter of time...
The OS is 64 bit!

Great!
Please, can you share info about sensors? It has Compass? NFC?
Another question: As the root/Magisk isn't available at time for this model, can you check almost the Substratum native support with Andromeda (no root required)?

Compass and NFC work both fine. I didn't deliberately test GPS, but location service works fine. And sorry, I really, really hate substratum! No theming for me. One of the reasons that I buy a 'stock android' phone without a skin.
Only little disappointment for now is the battery life. That was better on my Moto G5 Plus with Validus O, but it still brings me through the day.
Here is the complete list of sensors I found on my Moto G6 Plus!
Hi @smitharro,
You will unlock the bootloader?

Hi,
Ummm... Now I have a Moto G5+, and the battery with stock firmware is great. You feel the battery of the Moto G6+ is worse?
---------- Post added at 09:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:36 AM ----------
Hi,
More questions for you:
- The XT1926-3 (RETEU) model of Moto G6+, which "code number" has? For example for the Moto G5+ is "potter". It can be "teller"?
- The phone has FM Radio receiver? How it works?
Thank you!

The battery life was promised as excellent. It's good, but not as good as my Moto G5 Plus with Validus O.
I have the XT1926-3 4/64. Bought in The Netherlands. Codename is 'evert-n' (at least that's what it shows in ADB).
I don't see an FM Radio app, so I assume it doesn't have FM radio. But I usually listen radio via a digital radio app that works online. Way better sound quality and it works without wired headphone!
It does have an fm radio.
I switched from a Nexus 6p to the Moto g6 plus a couple of days ago.
It's a lot cheaper than the 6p was but definitely holds up against it.
It's fast and smooth. Display is very good outdoors in bright sunlight. Its front facing speaker is very loud, camera's are good and the software as it is almost stock Android is also excellent.
Battery life has been great. I am quite the heavy user, and never once with my 6p was I able to get through more then a day. Always ended my days in the 10% with 3h Screen on time.
The Moto g6 has gotten me 2 full days per charge with a screen on time of more then 5 hours. Even with me still downloading apps and installing things.
Only drawback I can find in the whole phone is that it is slippery as hell. A case can easily solve this. But its too bad because she is quite a looker...
This is actually off topic of the project trebble thread, bus as you guys were talking about the 6 plus, I thought I would weigh in.

Hi,
Extracted from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g6/development/moto-g6-plus-firmware-t3788735#post76484034 it seems that the Moto G6+ is "EVERT".
Regards.
How is the battery compared to the old Z Play? Here I have 14h sot. Maybe reachable just with the new G6 Play, right? I think I keep on Z Play. It's good enough. But G6 Plus seems to be great, too. Can anybody check treble support? It it's supported, it's looking like that. You can test it with this app "Treble Check". Thanks!

Lg V20 review/modding guide mid 2019

This is my review of the lg v20 in 2019. It has received positive feedback on Telegram and Reddit, so I decided to post it here as well. I'm going to try to keep updating this as I go with my current mods.
The article will hopefully be updated again next week addressing the current constructive criticism I have received.
Hope this helps someone out.
Updates 5/21/19
5/21/19
Clarified thermal test run in airplane mode
updated to latest MK 2.2 clang kernel
Complete new section regarding Model Variants Kernels
removed universal gms doze due to crashing android VM
removed WhatsApp extensions Xposed module due to issues
Added modded libraries comparison from imgur
clarified which libs my shots were with
Hi, nice post. Just what I was looking for as I am about to acquire a V20, a Korean version and I'm looking to mod it like my G5 with everything possible . First question - your article has a link to something to mod the secondary screen but the link is dead. Could you say what was the mod and is it still available?

That paid app, BoredSigns, has been discontinued and taken off the Play store since the developer no longer owns a V20. Its weather widget has been broken for a while, so don't expect that part to work. I have attached a screenshot of the developer's message on the Play store listing which you can only see if you already had the app installed earlier. You can still build the app yourself from its source on GitHub if interested.
I just bought a F800 model on ebay for very little which has a cracked screen and other minor problems. I'm not sure if it's F800 L or K or S yet and I won't know until I receive it. In any case I'm in europe and I'm hoping to do the works, root it, twrp it etc and maybe put a european software version on it. I'm not sure in what order I should go about this, would you have an opinion.? Should I root and twrp it first or should I kdz a different firmware first and then root it? As I write this I suppose it's logical to root it first, it couldn't make changing firmware version more difficult I suppose. Any thoughts appreciated. I'm totally new the phone so not sure what's possible.

I'm not familiar with the Korean variants, but I think this general thread on the F800 models should help you get started. The later pages in there will give you an idea of other users' recent activities.
Ok gonna have time to update my article next week.
What do you want me to talk about or clarified.
Thank you very much for this, it is very helpful to have it all together. In the light of this, I believe that it would be helpful if you advice people a bit about rooting, not the very basic, but what one need to be aware of, possible pitfalls in the process.
Partly because of your nice recommendations I have now rooted my V20 and installed most of your recommendations. Until now everything is fine

I just changed test settings from 15 min to 10. I left everything else as it is. (number of threads: 20)
It also surprised me, because I've had this phone for two whole years.
Made the test with airplane mode on. Maybe there's something wrong with the settings?
Also maybe it is because I am currently in a sort of cold room? (about 20°c)
Edit: Re-running test for 15 min. Moved to a slightly hotter area of the same room.
Re-edit: Changed thermal paste anyways. I'm going to check if it's better for me.
I have a new refrub and I got 85K. Defiantly let it run for over 10 minutes. I didn't see any red lines in the graph. I didn't play with any settings. I'm kinda disappointed which is ridiculous because I bought the paste in advance and I have a copper shim I was thinking of putting on it as well. I don't see any need to do it now so I'll leave it for the time being.
Are you guys looking at the max reading or the average? I got just shy of 100k when I was using the electrically conductive pad but average was still only in the 80s. The 2nd pic was the new one I replaced it with after I found out it was electrically conductive.
