Gynecs overview
Appearance.
Very nice color, looks great. Build on solid five.
I really like what it looks like in a transparent bumper. And everyone likes it. Included phone, cable, plug, headphones (not even unpacking)
as well as a transparent silicone bumper and a book a la C3 / C4. There is also a film slightly smaller than the screen size (glass is sloping at the edges). And 2 batteries.
Screen.
Luxurious, one word. For me - just what you need. And the resolution, and color, and contrast. All available wallpapers are completely out of place.
The touch is easy, I would even say - gentle (in the sense of lightness of touch). On the screen is a glass type gorilla. The film is not glued, no scratches. Blissing moderately, in the book is generally excellent. By the way, the book does not tightly cover the screen, it should be developed, but I use the bumper.
Battery.
After 2 weeks, he confidently holds a day with constantly working 3g, 1-1.5 hours of navigation, about 30-40 minutes of talking, 20-30 minutes of Internet, 15-20 minutes of listening to music and 15-20 sms. By evening, 25-30% is still available. Calibration did not produce, the charge drop is very smooth. Without 3g and navigation I lived quietly for 2 days in the country
Radio module
The interlocutor is heard perfectly, me too. There are no no tt, no complaints about the work of the Internet or mobile communication, there were no failures of WiFi and Bluetooth either.
The Internet plows perfectly, the page loads quickly. The stock browser is quite decent, I keep the Opera in case of a slow Internet, IMHO it is faster in these situations. Downloading via WIFI at a speed of 50MB on LAN is also excellent. With bluetooth too no problem. I did not transfer files, but in headphones (Sony MW600) the sound is gorgeous.
Navigation.
At first I was upset, the first start was slower than usual, the signal was lost in dense building and during fast turns. After downloading the EPO, everything returned to normal, now there are practically no problems. And even the beloved Citigide robit on the top five. I use Navi daily, so on this point I am especially pleased. The previous Huawei was just a complete navigator, but MTX guards often upset ...
Multimedia.
Fotik shoots great. The video is great, I don’t know what else to demand from a budget smartphone ...
The sound of a standard audio player is quite enough for me, compared with Poweramp - I did not feel the difference. Uploaded covers for fun.
Videos play the built-in player and MxPleerPro. Both cope perfectly well (I tried 1280x720). Upset external speaker, the high and low frequencies simply do not. The volume had to be corrected through an engineer, now it is heard everywhere and always. Radio catches normally and remembers (I do not use). There is also the program "Film Studio" for editing video files.
The software part.
Pure android 4.2.1 with stock launcher, with the addition of the player MxPleerPro and DocsToGo and a full set of Google applications. Everything works fine, accounts are created and transferred.
From his former Huawei, he transferred the Huawei Backup program to create a backup. He writes that it is not installed, in fact, it is installed and the program is backed up. contacts, sms, calendar. Recommend. If necessary, lay out.
The recovery is quite functional, the system is backed up with a bang, I already tried it for interest. Restored an exact copy in 5-6 minutes. Ruth received for 30 seconds according to the method described above.
Something like that...

If the phone is exactly Star

The information on the phone in the settings was N9500, but Star or not old was nowhere to be found. But according to the data is suitable. How can I find information about the phone and its manufacturer. On the site where I bought there is no information at all. I boughtsdes

To the edge you can try

I tried all the firmware from there. Maybe some trouble with drivers and Windows 8? Device Manager recognizes normally.

skorpion69,
You do not have an N9500, but an I9500. If you do not find the firmware for yours, then you cannot restore it.

Why, then, does he have the N9500 ​​written in his information? In an online store, they can write a different name on the article, such as zakos for Samsung.

That's right, this is the brace under the S4, which is marked as I9500.

Threat. Does it enter recovery? Or is the brick full? There would be more information.

In general, readHEREand do as it says (just install your firmware naturally), and everything is the same for all MTKs. Read the posts below and problems with FlashTools that may arise.

Respect to everyone, take in the ranks yesterday I became the owner of this device. Of course, negative emotions are more than enough. But the most intense are the problems with 3g and gps. I hope that everything will be corrected over time.

Something doesn’t want to install anything at all, I can’t install the recovery from the header either. I did everything according to the instructions. First I write to wait 30 minutes and at the end it says that the txt file was created on the memory card, click ok and exit the application

Neither in recovery does it go any further. When connected to charging, you can see that the screen starts to glow and that's it, there are no more signs of life. I contacted the seller and they threw off the firmware for him for me, but after the firmware the result is the same. Black screen and no signs of life. How can I revive with the original firmware. In the device manager, the phone is recognized. Spinning and soldering are not suitable. There is an option to change, but if the seller agrees. And so I don’t know what to do, all in a panic.
What other information is needed to get the phone back to stock firmware? Thanks in advance.

And read the posts above and went to the parcels. I tried different versions of FlashTool. It is all the same. After flashing the black screen. And where it was discussed more than once if the topic is only 3 pages and nowhere I didn’t find the only answer what kind of flashTool version to flash the phone.
