Guest valsam Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 I'm not sure on what that function depends and I don't have earphones like thatWhich inew port are you using? Although base is the same for the different versions, there're some differencesWould you mind trying something? Rename your current keyguard.apk or move to other folder, just in case you want it back, and flash this oneI will give it a try, so if i flash this new keyguard.apk that you gave me and things get worse how can go back to the state i was before,i mean how do i unflash the new keyguard.apk ?

Guest 77chedu Posted August 23, 2015 Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 Have a full backup on your recovery ready or just copy your current keyguard.apk somewhere else. If you want it back, just copy it back to system/priv-app.You can use FX explorer, it will add the right permissionshttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.fx&hl=enhttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.fx.rr&hl=en Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 77chedu Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 OK, it was worth trying. Now at least you can scroll down from the status bar, because on the inew roms with the default apk you couldn'tIf I had one of these I could try a few things myself, but I really don't know what sets external hardware to work properly.You can try my version which has an updated kernel, but I really don't know if it would make any differencehttps://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByEOR9M5bXAtOUNaU0xsZjlILW8/view Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KennyPowers2000 Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 You have low gps signal as i see from the numbers.Try the following to check if it is a matter of faulty settings or it is a faulty GPS antenna in the phone.Uninstall all apps for faster gps or other gps fix. Resetting your GPSYou need:Mobileuncletools, ES file explorer (or other with root permissions), GPS test1. Rename the next files (if they exist, for backup reasons):/data/misc mtkgps.dat and EPO.DAT and alsο /system/etc/gps.conf2. Activate GPS and go to menu(settings) -> location and we choose ''device only'' (GPS signal only, not WiFi,networks etc)3. reboot4. Find a good position outside with clear view to the sky (or a balcony)5. Start Mobile Uncle Tools and go to Engineer Mode->Engineer Mode (MTK)->Location5.1 go to Location Based Services->AGPS->Enable A-GPS Uncheck it and go back5.2 go to YGPS wait a few minutes untill you have a GPS Fix (the satellite spots will change color)6. Go back and close Mobileuncletools7. Start gpstest and check your locationI've tried this, but still not a great GPS fix :(Has anyone tried a GPS antenna fix/mod on this phone? I tried some copper tape stuck on the inside of the plastic cover at the bottom, but no performance difference. That is assuming the GPS chip/antenna are in the bottom of the phone.The other option would be to dissemble the phone, and solder a DIY antenna extension on. I have seen other China Phones on youtube with this done, but nothing on the 8297w. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest KennyPowers2000 Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 I take it back, after walking around outside a bit, it was acquiring a fix a bit quicker than before.I've come to the conclusion its the cheap GPS chip they've used, so there is a limit to how much more performance can be gained tweaking settings etc.Perhaps an external Bluetooth GPS antenna could be one solution, although not ideal.Or a mod to the antenna inside, but that is more risky as could trash the phone.

They don't improve accuracy.If you find a antenna mod video, let us know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest razorinc Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 If someone has a problem with weird pop up notifications with games, apps suggestions after flashing chinese roms, in my case it was bcs of android service 3.6 app (it needs to be disabled or freezed with titanium)...

Guest firuromania Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 Thank you, rista1! Os 360 mini is CoolUI with 360 security! Heavily decrapified, only menu in chinese is about phone.Niunai files have some strange names, so I scanned with AVL and ROM was clean of viruses, some minor adwares.It is a keeper with EmUI 3.0 from ATX,everything works as it should,news are classic launcher not ios style and long standby mode.Thank you, Niunai, good work!

Guest 77chedu Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 I don't know exactly what are you guys are seeing on that 360 release over a plain stock CoolUI. Maybe I'm missing something, because I cleaned up all Liutao's stuff up before flashing360 app is on chinese and obviously "heavily decrappified" has different meaning for different people but still, I don't get it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firuromania Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 Sorry,77chedu,my fault-I mean heavily decrapified by me with Titanium Backup and you are right,it is a Coolpad ROM,but one that works good,battery life is very good using long standby,xposed,gravity,and viper works good.
