Guest blaster99999 Posted June 22, 2013 Report Posted June 22, 2013 Tillaz if you get chance could you have a look at the known 4.2.1 bug regarding the double text thread, when you text someone and you get a reply the reply message starts a second text thread, its well known bug and the vowney as this bug, also would love the circle battery mod , I've always preferred that , and I could list lots more but know your busy but if these bugs are easy fixes we would all like to see some patches.

When did you order the phone and what mail service did you use??
Guest bryfly Posted June 22, 2013 Report Posted June 22, 2013 that's just where the problem is in the settings.apk, not had a look at it yet. it could be a problem with there update or a problem when i have deodexed the settings.apk, not sure Think it is their update, installed their latest update still got the same problem, went back to an earlier one and it is fine, better add again think it is!
Guest bryfly Posted June 22, 2013 Report Posted June 22, 2013 (edited) Has anybody noticed that caller display does not show the person calling when they are in your phone book it just gives the number, or is it just mine? Just cracked it , all my numbers are listed with the prefix +44, when I remove that and put the 0 back in front of the number then the identity of the caller comes up, guess I will have to take out the +44 on all my contacts, as I cannot see another way to do it......

All they had was the White/Black version when I purchased but I wanted the all black version so I'm going to buy the black cover from eBay, if you wan a white back cover then they only cost £3.89. http://www.ebay.co.u...984.m1423.l2649 Edited June 22, 2013 by Rico_89

Maybe they'll send me a free white back cover. If not then I'll take your advice and get one from ebay.

Guest flym Posted June 22, 2013 Report Posted June 22, 2013 (edited) Here's what the all black version looks like. 1) Front at max brightness here. 2) Front at lowest brightness here. 3) Back cover here. 4) Top of phone here. 5) Side of phone here. 6) Screen off here. The back cover is a matte black-not shiny. The camera flash rattles a bit but I can live with it. I have the original protective film that came with the phone still on the screen; I just gently scratched the Chinese characters off with my nail and voila! Free screen protector.

I like the fact that Vowney have gone for a Matte finish, even the white back cover looks better for it. I really do not like that polished high gloss finish some of the manufacturers have chosen.

Guest bryfly Posted June 23, 2013 Report Posted June 23, 2013 Been experimenting with the roms re the volume problem, note it has also been reported on the Vowney web site that Volume in audio profiles does not work on the latest update. V5_4.2.zip date 20130427………....................................volume control ok…...no location on maps Tillaz…….Vowney-V5-Flashable-Stock-Repack.zip….. ……….volume no good…….....location ok on maps Tillaz…….Vowney-V5-Flashable-Stock-Repack-Gapps.zip……volume no good…….....location ok on maps
Guest Sere83 Posted June 23, 2013 Report Posted June 23, 2013 (edited) Did Tillaz Re-Upload the stripped down ROM? Does any one know how to eneter engineering mode? Really need to boost my volume as its too low. I found a guide on how to do it for another MT6589 phone, but the first getting into engineering mode part doesn't seem to work... If your problem is in call volume: Engineer mode *#*#3646633#*#* Increasing Volume for speaker Audio Normal Mode Type Select Sph Below is an example Level 0 below the Value is 0 ~ 160 fill and then press the Set button to save Level 1 below the Value is 0 ~ 160 fill out the 80 and then press the Set button to save Level 2 below the Value is 0 ~ 160 fill 100 and then press the Set button to save Level 3 below, the Value is 0 ~ 160 fill out the 128 and then press the Set button to save Level 4 below, the Value is 0 ~ 160 fill 136 and then press the Set button to save Level 5 below, the Value is 0 ~ 160 fill out the 148 and then press the Set button to save Level 6 below, the Value is 0 ~ 160 fill out the 160 and then press the Set button to save Also wanted to ask Tillaz...... Any idea why my 3G sometimes doesn't work properly? Like sometimes flicks over to 'E' when I know 3G/H is available or it shows 3G/H but apps don't load content properly and just hang. Other times it works totally fine. Also does anyone know how to show your network name in the black bar? Mine doesnt show it Edited June 23, 2013 by Sere83

Guest deuse Posted June 23, 2013 Report Posted June 23, 2013 Is there an official site for this phone? and do you think it will get Miui? I got to get a new phone as I just bricked mine.

Guest flym Posted June 23, 2013 Report Posted June 23, 2013 Even at the lowest setting the display brightness is blinding at night.
Guest ChrisPNE Posted June 23, 2013 Report Posted June 23, 2013 Even at the lowest setting the display brightness is blinding at night. There are third party apps in the Play Store that will allow you to lower it more. Search 'screen adjuster'.
Guest flym Posted June 23, 2013 Report Posted June 23, 2013 Is there an official site for this phone? and do you think it will get Miui? I got to get a new phone as I just bricked mine. Yes, Miui is found earlier in the thread: MIUI V5 original thread http://bbs.v5zn.com/...-18856-1-1.html link to ROM http://pan.baidu.com...0&uk=1327862826 The official site is this: http://en.v5zn.com/
