Bacause they offer the same sime site for a bunch of mobiles, espesially in cases that the "offered" conent can't be found on teh internet but only there. E.g. update phone's to lollipop that never will get such an update, not now and not later. Its just about clicking their links to let them earn money but they'll never provide what they tell you. On the bottom are ALWAYS exact 3 feedbacks. "Working great". I landed there a couple of times while googeling things for xda
BUT feel free to do whatever yoh like I really wan't to between you and your luck ...

OK thanks for the post, me too it seemed unrealistic, because Android 5.0 Lollipop has a minimum 1 GB of RAM, a Sony Ericssson Vivaz, has 256 MB RAM 512 MB ROM.
In that case, I reiterate your request. What tool (program) or another way, maybe some code I can unlock the bootloader in the Sony Ericsson Vivaz, to install another Fimeware, with another system, such as CyanogenMod Android?

Android runs well with 512MB ram thats not the point. BUT you can't run android on it. The phone is made for a totally different OS. You won't even get android compatible hardware drivers or anything else AND the phone's hardware won't be able to run android at all.

My friend has a Nokia N8, which also originally, has on board Symbian, which has put CyanoMod Android version 2.2 or 2.3. The Nokia N8 has the same amount of RAM 256 MB and 512 MB ROM, the same amount as the Vivaz. Differs only capacity onboard memory, the N8 has 16 GB, the Vivaz is on drive C, 77 MB, and on drive D 148 MB, it is still hard. N8, processor ARM11 680 MHz double-pumped, the Vivaz is a ARM8 Cortex, clocked at 720 MHz. Vivaz sees memory card micro SDXC 64 GB, no problem. I currently have a memory card 32 GB Micro SDHC card.
I very kindly asking you for help, how to unlock bootloader in Sony Ericsson Vivaz?
Please tutorial, how it can be done, maybe it is possible to install CyanoMod Android, on the memory card, as it would have been enough space in the phone memory.

I CAN'T find anything about Nokia N8 and Cyanogenmod. You must be wrong. All in all its like that:
Community roms need a community and people who develop and maintain the roms, which regulary are people who own and use the phone themselves. No one will on request start a development (for free) that may take weeks or month if he has no benefit from it. Your phone might still be solid but its technically outdated. And there is and there will be no android for it. If you want to use android, go for a second hand phone.

Bush Spiral B1

I have a Bush Spira B1 (5inch, dual sim android 4.4.2, 5mp back camera, 2mp front camera, 8gb internal memory, 1gb ram, retailing in argos for £69.99)
I've only had it just over 30 days and it rebooted this evening but does not boot into android, after the boot and splash screens I get a blank screen and no operating system.
Anyone have any idea or knowledge of this device?
Why won't it finish boot? No system or any other changes have been made.
Apparently this is a rebranded Archos 50 neon, and carries the model number C50CNE.

Sounds like a piece of $hit.
Its most likely some chinese knock off.

Well its not one of these Chinese clone things that are taking over the net. They are $hit as you call it.......
I took it back and got a full refund.
Thanks for your optimistic comment though.

Sorry, lol, I havent ever heard of this phone, usually alot of people who buy phones that die like 30 days later are the Chinese ones.

Its ok. No offence taken.
I brought it because the spec seemed quite respectable.
Sim free (unlocked)
5" IPS screen
Qualcom snapdragon quad core processor
Dual sim
8gb internal memory
1gb ram
Android 4.4.2 KitKat
8mp back camera
5mp front camera
£10 lebra mobile credit included on a free sim card
£10 Google play voucher
Black or white back battery cover and a clear gel case included.
£69.95
My own investigation found out that all bush phones and tablets available in UK are rebranded Archos devices.
The Spira B1 seems to be identical to the Archos C50 Neon.
There are bigger and better phones available (Namely the Spira C1 and Spira D1 that have 5.2 and 5.5" screens and lollipop) for £99 and £120 respectively.
The previous 4 and 5 inch Bush android phones and tablets available until April this year in the UK (that were called bush 4 android and bush 5 android) have now been rebranded as Alba devices !

Here it is.

I have a Bush Spira C1. I bought it from Argos. I too cannot currently find anyway to root my device. I'm gradually running out of space, as I'm unable to use Link2SD without root. Any assistance for us would be gratefully received. Thank you in advance. P.S. I have searched XDA, but cannot find any other reference to our devices.

Not everyone can afford a £600 phone. Some people are quite happy with the basics.

Same problem here, my dad has the Spira B1. I'll update if I find something.
[Update]
Managed to root with KingoRoot using the Windows software. Just need to find a way to replace their superuser app with SuperSU now.

superuser just crashes on this phone supersu sort of works it roots the phone but the pop up for su prompt is blocked so just sits there if set to always grant root works but is a bit of a security issue and practically all phones are produced in china now even the over priced ones and the chipset for the phone is spreadtrum the cpu is a quad 1.2 with a mali mp2 gpu so performance is reasonable but the touch screen is only 2 touch and it is a rebranded Archos 50c neon but the update firmware they have available at the archos site is older than what is installed on the phone so won't install.

12GB RAM ???

For my usage even 6GB ram in my S9+ is enough, so the 8GB version of OP7 Pro should be more than enough. The question is: is 12GB RAM going to be FASTER than the 8GB in any way when only using ONE app\benchmark\game at a time?? Cus I want the FASTEST.
As far as I know about how PCs work, more Ram only helps if you are using it... but then why did OP ''leak'' the cpu benchmark from the 12GB variant? https://www.gizmochina.com/2019/05/...isting-confirms-12-gb-ram-and-snapdragon-855/

You already know the answer.
By the time you need 12 gigs- you will probably become some 3 years older from now -- when a different SoC, GPU and the OS would actually want to make use of it on extremely intensive tasks.

Don't know why "leaked" but all I can think of a phone having 12 gigs of RAM for now & also competitors following suit is all about BRAGGING RIGHTS.

Perhaps - but if you get 2-3 Andiiod upgrades and you pass your phone on to kids, grandma or someone who's less of a power user, having a phone that works can be better than buying them a new one.
Or if things keep going the way they're going, you keep the phone yourself because there's no significant upgrade that merits buying a whole new phone as long as the current one still works fine.

In both cases I doubt how much of a role the 12 gigs would play(highly doubtful) at all in comparison to 8 gigs, as that "additional" 4 gigs will have little to do with the system but a newer redesigned SoC definitely WILL - which will be absent.
I mean just adding some "Access gigs Of RAM " will not make the phone futureproof.

How many nand chips make up the 8Gb and the 12 GB?
If there are more chips in the 12gb version then it will eat more battery.

Just ordered the blue 12 G version ?

Unfortunate that 12GB is only available in blue.

Im about to order the 12GB version just for bragging rights. Does the 12GB actually make a difference to the performance? Unlikely if say. I have a 6T Mclaren and the 10GB makes zero difference over the ordinary 6T but with the Snapdragon maybe the extra ram is utilised who knows. Anyway Im hesitant as I don't want what Happened to the 6 to happen again a special edition Red color soon after. That really makes me angry. I was lucky to get the McLaren when I did. Don't want to spend over €800 and see that happening all over again.

cheap 'Welcome' phone

Hi all hope everyone had a great xmas.
Ive not been in here since the XDA Universal days... glad to see its grown and grown.
Quick question.. I have a cheap chinese 'Welcome' phone
Is it posiable to flash a standard rom to these..as its allegedly got 265gb storage and 8gb ram...
but in reality has 16gb storage and 2gb ram
and Android version is miles out too.. says its 10.0 .. but i suspect its Android 5/6
Its ok for the price.. just wish it would tell the truth.. it may run a bit smoother then.
unsure of the processor though..
Build number l700_lyx_k18_welcome_q_540x1200_128 a16_en_yl_v02
Custom built version ALPS.L1.MP6.V2_WEG.L_P73
cheers for any light you can put on this subject, and appologies if its been asked before.. I didi have a look about in the search feature....
Cheers all...

Hi. I got mugged as well. I thought I was buying a Cheap End Huawei P50 Pro but got a Welcome K40 Pro+,. It has the wallpaper like Xaomi K40Pro+. It should have 16GB RAM 512GB ROM, but sadly, only 0.92902 GB RAM and 4GB ROM. There is a whole raft of lies. It has mainboard , sp7731e_1h10 (32bit). The OS is meant to be Android 11 but it comes up as Oreo. I found the same mainboard on a post from GSM from 2018, a Presto phone that was being rooted by the disappointed owner who complained about loads of bloat and malware.
I can only use 1 app at a time, If I try 2 apps the previous on quits.

TABLET T 8116 android 8.1 ANDROID GO EDITION cpu A50 Quadcore 1.5 GHZ

Hi I bought a tablet T 8116 (Chinese - China Office Com/Well Honest Enterprises Ltd - but it crashed with a microsoft update and the only thing which I see now is when I open it "ANDROID GO EDITION'' so it is not completely gone, but further more there is nothing..Probably there is a problem with the motherboard or the tablet chip. The tablet has an emotional value ..of course can buy a new one but I really would like to get it repaired somewhere in the world. I live in Belgium. Is there someone who can help me to repair it? Really would like to work with it again...gift from my mom that is why... I wrote to China Office Com...no answer...Costs repairing no problem

if this is the tablet (https://www.computereweb.eu/recensione-del-tablet-android-t8116-in-regalo-con-altroconsumo/), do keep in mind that you wont be able to get a decent experience with this tablet. at 1.5 ghz and 1 gb of ram you will struggle with basic apps, like a browser.

This is the one you are right (altroconsumo in italian)...I didn't have any problems with it until...do you know someone who can fix it...no matter what country...
