Guest dakok Posted September 27, 2014 Report Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) Color OS is android variant from Oppo phones. It looks like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OtHzkr05upY What's out: About ten useless China apps What's in: Support for WCDMA network (original rom was TDSCDMA), UI language set to english, added Android L keyboard What's bad: Didn't find anything yet :) What's good: Very loud sound and much better than usual audio recording level. Stock app records in mp3 format Rom is very smooth, almost like AOSP although is filled with many features. It consumes 0.6 - 1.2GB RAM at average. Antutu score is 31987, 3D score is 8170 You won't be dissapointed. I hope :) Download Installation instructions: - Download zip file (rom) and gapps and transfer that to SDcard - Turn on debugging on your phone, turn off quick boot, turn off phone (some folks remove battery now :)) - Press vol. up and power button together for at least 10 seconds. - You are in CWM now (probably) - Wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition - Mounts and storage: Format System, Cache, Data. Go back - Advanced: Wipe Dalvik cache, Reboot recovery - Install zip from SDcard -> choose zip -> your rom (zip) - Reboot to system Leave your phone now for 5 minutes, let it take a breath. - Repeat the procedure for flashing gapps (just install, no wipes/formats needed) (don't format Data if you use TWRP recovery, only do first four wipes in menu) Screenshots: Bugs in this release: SIM shows no contacts (but you can export them from SIM to phone memory) SIM PIN lock should be turned off Whatsapp FC (SIM related I guess) - It works with DISA Messenger! :D Use rebooter to turn the phone off (else it doesn't boot properly, you should boot from CWM then) - fixed Some have problems with proximity sensor (me not :)) P.S. Just for reference: A similar release from APKhot - download Edited October 6, 2014 by dakok
Guest xeros2 Posted September 27, 2014 Report Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) Thanks again dakok! Is it based on AOSP? 4.2.2 or 4.4.2? Any other languages besides English and Chinese? How's camera quality & battery life? Edit: sorry, I didn't notice the header ;-) Edited September 27, 2014 by xeros2
Guest dakok Posted September 27, 2014 Report Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) Don't know how to tell if it's AOSP based? It's 4.2.2 as the headline tells :P It's multilanguage. It has 5 languages: Three Chinese variants English (USA) English (South Africa) :D Camera is UCamera and it gives very good pictures. Shoots in 4864x2736 resolution with 4MB average image size Battery looks very good for now :) Edited September 27, 2014 by dakok
Guest rista1 Posted September 27, 2014 Report Posted September 27, 2014 What about led notifications is it correct
Guest johnickz Posted September 27, 2014 Report Posted September 27, 2014 I think that the camera is a little blurrier than stock coolui and I can't get my Sim unlocked. That's weird.. Very smooth ROM BTW and the sound is incredible..
Guest dakok Posted September 27, 2014 Report Posted September 27, 2014 Notifications are OK and I can't read SIM card directly. The only way to have contacts is to export them to phone in phone settings or have them from google backup. It is unusual approach but it works :). Or there is a setting somewhere I didn't notice :)
Guest rista1 Posted September 27, 2014 Report Posted September 27, 2014 very nice rom test-31188 3D-8101. Only contacts must have a prefix +381 or depending on the country to identify the contact
Guest dakok Posted September 27, 2014 Report Posted September 27, 2014 You can use Twitch! Contacts Formatter to fix that. Screenshots added to the first post! :)
Guest rista1 Posted September 27, 2014 Report Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) Twitch! Contacts Formatter can not see contacts,Weather app does not see Serbia,I can not specifically to set the ringtone and notification the volume,lenovo cam I think it consumes battery Edited September 27, 2014 by rista1
Guest dakok Posted September 27, 2014 Report Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) No problem with Twitch! over here. You messed up something And the weather app easily knows where I am now: Ringtone now changed to Mallets - a great ringtone btw :D Edited September 27, 2014 by dakok
Guest rista1 Posted September 27, 2014 Report Posted September 27, 2014 recognizes the Split but Serbia does not.twitch cant load contacts
Guest dakok Posted September 27, 2014 Report Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) Strange. Twitch! loads all of my contacts in doubles (SIM and phone) without problem??? Could it be that China put sanctions on Serbia? :D Edited September 27, 2014 by dakok
Guest dakok Posted September 27, 2014 Report Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) Sure it is, i pulled some connections in the Central Committee Edited September 28, 2014 by dakok
Guest Bélabá_Hungary Posted September 28, 2014 Report Posted September 28, 2014 Someone please try the following:" All ColorOS in which there is a little trick you can display the hidden language system without root. You open the dialer and bash the following: * # 0000 #. Then, under the system settings will appear in all the hidden language." It's working in this rom? Thanks!
Guest nayparm Posted September 28, 2014 Report Posted September 28, 2014 (edited) Nice rom, almost a keeper, except exchange email doesn't work :-( I always end up back on miui by xs. Edited September 28, 2014 by nayparm
Guest dakok Posted September 28, 2014 Report Posted September 28, 2014 I have two google email apk files on disk and I will post them here later They were tested with another rom that didn't have a proper email support...
Guest nayparm Posted September 28, 2014 Report Posted September 28, 2014 Cool, thanks Dakok, I'll give it another go later then. I noticed it didn't have exchange services so I restored a 4.2.2 one I had on backup which got me a bit further but kept force closing. Also is there a full screen camera in that rom other than the little widget one? Thanks Nayparm
Guest baniko Posted September 28, 2014 Report Posted September 28, 2014 (edited) Is possible to unlock the phone, with the volume buttons? I cannot find something in the sittings or the ATX sittings. Edited September 28, 2014 by baniko

Guest dakok Posted September 28, 2014 Report Posted September 28, 2014 Google e-mail app Email_JB.apk Exchange2.apk It is google's email app, tested in another rom so it should work. Use root explorer to copy both files to System/app folder and set permissions according to other apk's there Reboot (It might work simply by starting apk's but I don't remember that for sure)
