Description | Discussion пїЅ | Purchase пїЅ | Accessories пїЅ | Firmware пїЅ

Important information!

Before flashing we do not forget to do BACKUP and in particular BACKUP of the NVRAM section. For your devices, no one except yourself is responsible!

The device has no other revisions, only two branches of firmware, R0x (x32) and V1x (x64)!

Regarding our device and all android - devices on MTK chips:
Stock-like firmware is firmware that is based on the android source from MTK and usually comes from the factory. They also contain additional software chips from this manufacturer, such as MiraVision (image enhancement), ClearMotion (smooth interface), and possibly a camera application. Such firmwares are easy to port as they take root to almost any hardware.

Alternative backup

About backup. Based on my workings of 1.5 years ago on othersdevices.

Instruction

SwingingTotal Commander for Windowsinstall the plugin to itAndroid ADB.
Drivers and many useful things take in the subjectSP Flash Tool - flasher for smartphones.
With the help of the SP Flash Tool we merge the partition (or, as they say here - the region) recovery from the device.
Just in case, but you can not merge and take ready from the message jemminiOukitel C4 - Firmware.
We are stitching TWRP (we don’t need root yet if you want to get a “clean” backup) byinstructions.

Turn off the device into recovery mode (TWRP), then connect it to the computer.
We run Total Commander on the computer, find the ADB plugin, watch the serial number of your device.
Go to the path \\\ ADB \ YOUR_SERRY \ dev \ block \ platform \ mtk-msdc.0 \ 11230000.msdc0 \ by-name \
And here it is beauty - all blocks (they are sections, they are regions) are presented in an explicit and roll form.

We select (it is possible everything in a crowd, it is possible selectively) and we copy on a hard disk, we save in a safe place.

P.S. If the device is already rutovano, then you can back up from enabled in debug mode by ADB.
Or try the applicationTotal Commander for Androidon a memory card - completely without a computer.

Released finally the first custom "Pixelify".
To facilitate the installation, a method was chosen to install it via twrp, like a regular backup.

A small nuance!

Google Camera is unstable, I haven't tried the other versions.
1) Dusky image.
2) When you turn on video, the camera application says that you can not connect to the camera.

When I try to install, I get an error. Or am I doing something wrong.

[nikimann]

montanaw, and how do you bet?

Posted 06/01/2017 11:14:

It is necessary in TWRP in the initial menu to select "Restore" and find the backup file (it lies in the archive, you need to extract it)

It's clear. There is one file. Unpacked on sd. I go to TWRP 3.0.2. - Recovery - and I see nothing (there is no file. There is no file path selection as in the Installation menu there is not)

[nikimann]

New lightweight firmware from alexcool0910 has been released. It is in the cap, there is a deodex version. If you don’t like the nova launcher, there’s also a patch that replaces the launcher with the native one.

It does not replace, but adds. If you need to replace, I will change the installation script at home. To remove nova.

[Dimonn9]

alexcool0910 @ 06.01.17, 17:46

It does not replace, but adds.

IMHO, a very good new launcher, it's good that it is inserted.
So far there is only one question: does deodex slow down the system? This is sometimes the case with droids from 5.1.
I will check it out, I'll check it myself, but later - I have the device in the beta test)

[alexcool0910]

Dimonn9 @ 06.01.17, 18:47

Does deodex not slow down the system?

Deodex did not check, on 5.1 he suffered with him. That bootloop, then all sorts of errors climb ...

Added patch Replacing nova launcher with standard launcher with nova removal.

Merry Christmas to all!
