So in other words, if the battery gets damaged critcally, the phone is a zombie.

Good Morning all,

I intend to buy this E3 device soonest. I will like to know more about its working games (a list will be cool especially HD ones) and also if google playstore and gmail come preinstalled or are compatible with it.

Further information on rooting/flashing to custom roms will be appreciated.

Thanks a lot.

Sidney

Godvilla: I just handled the Gionee and its very strange u said dis option is not availble. As a matter of fact, dis option is available on all Android OS, and the Gionee is not left out since its based on Android.
Pls check very well.....LOL cheesy

Sorry but that option is not available on the Dream D1 so quite possibly it is not all Android phones that have it.

Regarding the Gionee e3 in black color, i have not seen one!

However, the software that comes preloaded on this phone is junk and the user interface is so CHINESE! I have been trying to switch to a custom ROM all day but it is so difficult to even get the slightest support for this device unlike you'd do with a reg phone.

Nevertheless, the audio quality of the phone is superb, the camera is decent but NEVER try to use the flash in low light because it is shitty! The battery life seems better than i expected although i have not put it under intense use.

I doubt if any regular android user would appreciate the interface of this Gionee except when ported to a custom rom. Now where is Godzilla and 4Peace? I need help!!!

Pls abeg what are the Gsm specs for this phone? I am asking because I bought the tecno F7 and it does not work in north america because it only works on GSM 900/1800 while north america is on GSM 850/2100. So pls what are the GSM specs for this phone? Samsung, sony,HTC are tri band and can work anywhere. Thanks Guys

PORTING ROMS IS VERY EASY BUT TWEAKING THE ROM IS THE MAIN ISH.
CYANOGEN AND MUI V5 ROMS ARE IN THE TEST LABS.
ALTHOUGH CYANOGEN MOD10 HAS PROVED ABBORTIVE SEVERAL TYMS.
10.1 AND THE LATEST 11 MIGHT GIV A RED LIGHT.
