Guest Arpione Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 If it was 4.2 I could do a ROM very fast and optimized, now with 4.4 I need to learn new things Why haven't you then? :D I'd be perfectly happy with a fast 4.2 AOSP, jonzalvo's pure AOSP was close, but the camery quality was quite bad compared to the stock rom. Thanks for your work, I'll check out your v2.1 tomorrow, I hope Strava won't crash on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest prile Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 Hello guys, I haven't been here for a while (little less than 2 months) because, you know, summer and stuff :D I'm running pure aosp by jonzalvo (4.2 i think) on my f1 and it's been perfect, everything's working great, the phone is "flying" through everything, plastic that it's made from is very good and the screen is excellent. Battery holds for about 4 and a half hours of screen on time (1-2 days of use). I have only 1 little thing that I can complain about, and that's the volume of the ringer/notification, the ringer in general. I would like it to be a bit louder, and I know it's possible to do something about it in mtkuncletools and I wanted to ask you what that is, cause i dont know obviously. So, help on guys! I'm really over satisfied with the phone itself! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest xeros2 Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 (edited) I made another Baidu repack. It's new v56 release and this time there is no problem with google account setup at boot. Interface is in English, google services are inside, you go to settings - account and activate google there I removed chinese apps and chinese new phone wizard that pops up at boot. I am testing it now and it looks good. I will upload it tomorrow :D Nice! Aren't there now any problems with PIN keyboard from v54 or issues that were in v55? Is it still Baidu v5 or already v6? laek.17, thanks for your ROM, too! jakethedooggg is so excited that it must be very good :-) Probably you'll get even more users of your ROM now.

The bug is still present in v56, I checked it yesterday. They probably don't even know about it since it only happens when the language is set to english.

They probably don't even know about it since it only happens when the language is set to english. Thanks for info! I'm affraid that disabling PIN for SIM card might not be enough in some cases. If there is a bug with some strings in English for numeric keyboard that makes such big problem then any app that opens numeric-only keyboard may trigger this problem as well.

Guest slime00 Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 (edited) Hey laek, thank you for the update! :) your v2 seems a lot different from v1, it has the old android dial up image (the smiling man) and now it lets me call 119, my customer care number (it called the cops in the previous version, I was like freezed when they answered! :D ) Did you change the base rom (hls maybe?)? there seems to be a bug with indicators (like baldos' one), soft keys not vibrating when selecting vibration mode (like baldos' one) and camera quality seems to be a bit "degraded" respect v1 (but this requires more testing). The rest seems pretty smooth and stable, now memories work as they should! :) Edited September 11, 2014 by slime00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dmrtn Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 I'm just a learner here but this was mentioned recently and I found the setting in MobileUncle Tools > Engineer Mode > MTK > Swipe right twice to Hardware Testing > First option is audio. "Normal Mode" might be the ringer? Someone correct me if I'm wrong! But I wanted it to increase the loudspeaker volume so I haven't tested this yet. Not certain what the first dropdown refers to. The levels are (I think) a division of the max that you set at the bottom. I've read that you shouldn't set the max to the stated max as this may affect the speaker. I've set mine about 20 lower than the max on each screen. Anyone able to correct that I've said? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I understood, seems pretty legit. Thank you again for your contribution :) but you made another account? I didn't realize it was you in the previous page! Edit, found another bug: screen doesn't go on when sms is received (it was fixed in v2 if i remember right) , sms app also crash when opening notifications settings, so it's impossible to remove the displayed message window on homescreen.

Guest Dovahpig Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 (edited) Why the f*** mods wont make separate forum for this phone? Someone should ask them too, there is too much roms and everything should be sorted the right way. This phone is becoming more popular then g300.

I'm no expert like these other guys but I had the same issue when I first got my phone. Also it would crash to the home screen when I selected Data Usage from the settings menu. In the end I rooted it and flashed AOSP 4.2.2 by Jonzalvo and never had another problem. First time I flashed a ROM. I recommend it. Hugely increased my battery life too.

Guest trashbat Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 (edited) Hey guys, Any recommendation on a good soft plastic/rubber cover?

Guest dmrtn Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 Quick question - what ROM or tweak or app have you tried that you think got the most quality from the camera on this phone? Photos and video separate if you prefer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mr.Markos Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 I have one last comparison as last possible competitor. How about the Jiayu S1 vs Coolpad F1? (Single SIM is no issue for me, I don't use a second one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest trashbat Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 running pure aosp 2.0 and the headphone output volume seems low - on my jaiyu f1 number 1 volume is loud enought but on the coolpad i have to whack it up to full snd even then it can be quiet - is it the rom or the phone?

OTA works for pure original factory CoolUI installations. Sellers roms are slightly modified (removed bloatware, rooted and multilanguage) so rom will not pass the integrity check (or something like that) OTA on Chinese rom doesn't have much sense for us, foreigners. :) Hey guys, Any recommendation on a good soft plastic/rubber cover?
