Guest prile Posted July 7, 2014 Report Posted July 7, 2014 (edited) I've just recieved my f1, here's the about device. It's build 62. It came rooted and with gap,s, with minimum bloatware. I got a neat looking silicone mask, charger with Eu adapter and a few gifts. (stylus pen,stand, screen protector, that fish for headphones, USB card reader...) I'll put cwm later, make a mangrove backup and try out the 029 lite rom. Edit2: whats the 029 lite like? Is it this same rom without tthe bloatware? Edit: damn swiftkey, nandroid not mangrove :D Edited July 7, 2014 by prile
Guest Maringer Posted July 7, 2014 Report Posted July 7, 2014 It's the .015 in the build number which indicates the version of software you have, so that is one of the older ones (though still perfectly sound). I'm using emjot's MIUI which is good, but may give one of the 'lite' Coollife ROMs a try later this week if I find the time. Not quite a much football on TV any longer so I have more free time. ;)
Guest prile Posted July 7, 2014 Report Posted July 7, 2014 (edited) So i shouldnt autoupdate it in any case cause I'll get 021/026 version with no chance to get root back, right? Edited July 7, 2014 by prile
Guest dakok Posted July 7, 2014 Report Posted July 7, 2014 You won't get update since it is rooted. Wait few more days for the rom change since 035 factory rom is announced to be out soon. If it autoupdates by some magic, don't worry since it can be rooted now without problem. If you decide to flash 029 lite, there's a new release from yesterday. There is also 034 which is very good (I have it on phone now)
Guest prile Posted July 7, 2014 Report Posted July 7, 2014 Please can you give me links to those two, cause i have the older 29lite downloaded at home. You can pm it to me if you want.

Guest prile Posted July 7, 2014 Report Posted July 7, 2014 I've decided to put back original ROM that I've got with the phone. It was with less bloatware then 029 lite and 029 v3. Take a look at the apps: (I've added tapatalk whatsapp and maps) And that's it. I'm pretty satisfied with the ROM for today, we'll see when the excitement splashes down a bit :)
Guest dalyer Posted July 8, 2014 Report Posted July 8, 2014 I've decided to put back original ROM that I've got with the phone. What ROM was that? An earlier version of Coolpad's stock CoolLife UI?
Guest prile Posted July 8, 2014 Report Posted July 8, 2014 Is gravitybox working on your coolpad? I've tried to set some things like transparent statusbar, clock in the middle of status bar, quick settings change, but none of those work after reboot... Do you maybe know the reason?
Guest Maringer Posted July 8, 2014 Report Posted July 8, 2014 I seem to recall that I used gravitybox on Jonzalvo's AOSP ROM without any problems. This was a couple of months ago, however, so my memory is a little hazy on the matter! I now use the WSM tools mod on MIUI which provides xposed-style functions and this works as well.
Guest dakok Posted July 8, 2014 Report Posted July 8, 2014 Gravitybox works on stock android roms or as WSM on MIUI.
Guest prile Posted July 8, 2014 Report Posted July 8, 2014 http://www.needrom.com/mobile/coolpad-f1-8297w-aosp/ this one? I've tried miui for a whole hour and i didn't like it much. It has some cool features, but this icon bunch on the screens is killing me. It has some cool features and looks though.
Guest dalyer Posted July 8, 2014 Report Posted July 8, 2014 http://www.needrom.com/mobile/coolpad-f1-8297w-aosp/ I may be wrong but I thought that jonzalvo's Pure AOSP was more current and maybe better? http://www.needrom.com/mobile/coolpad-f1-8297w-pure-aosp/
Guest prile Posted July 8, 2014 Report Posted July 8, 2014 (edited) There's a link on my link (lol) and it says: Links: AOSP V1.0-by jonzalvo (155 dls)Recovery coolpad F1 8297W (78 dls)AOSP-V1.1-by-jonzalvo (231 dls)AOSP-V2.0 -by-jonzalvo (44 dls) so i guess that's the same thing? Do you know some good message app? This default message app has different messages for inbox and outbox, it's so bad :D I guess i could try hangouts for sms. What do you guys use? Is there a way to make the quick settings look like tiles by default without clicking on the top right button, rather than that slider? Edited July 8, 2014 by prile
Guest dalyer Posted July 8, 2014 Report Posted July 8, 2014 (edited) There are two jonzalvo AOSPs - "pure" and the other one. :) I don't really know what the differences are but I thought that "pure" was more recent and maybe "better"? I've played with it a little but not enough to comment much... I use Textra for messaging in case that's of any use. Edited July 8, 2014 by dalyer

Come to the dark side (MIUI) ON COOLPAD rom the led will still blink for sms+phone call even if you are using a different app instead. So you always have to go back into the official messaging app to stop led blinking
Guest prile Posted July 9, 2014 Report Posted July 9, 2014 I'm getting annoyed by the few things in my rom: - I set the swiftkey keyboard for default and it keeps getting android keyboard back after a few uses. - With whatsapp I had to manually put some notification sound cause by default there was no sound - Yesterday I installed all my apps, and this morning when i click on tapatalk i get the message "app isn't installed". The same thing with tasker. I put them back again, rebooted the phone later and again with tasker I get "app isn't installed". When I put it up back again, it has all my profiles saved, but the app just goes away... - That default message app is so bad, I mean getting the sent and recieved messages of the same person in different chats.... I'll try joznalvo's aosp v1.1. and hope for better luck with the things I said above. Besides that few things, rom was working fine...
Guest dalyer Posted July 9, 2014 Report Posted July 9, 2014 I'm getting annoyed by the few things in my rom: It's not clear to me what ROM you are on now? One of the AOSPs or something else?
Guest prile Posted July 9, 2014 Report Posted July 9, 2014 Sorry I didn't write it down. It was default coollife 015.
Guest dakok Posted July 9, 2014 Report Posted July 9, 2014 Besides ColorOS from OPPO and FunTouch OS from Vivo phones, there is MyUI OS - software that operates Green Orange phones: FIRE group from Odd Rabbit forum has one for our phone and it's rated pretty good (9.3) by now If you want to see how MyUI launcher looks like - check it here

Its vroot or rom related
