How I expand my p5 ram to 1gb
It's a app called RAM EXPANDER.
What this app does is using part of your sd card as ram.
What you need
1 . memory sd card class 10
2. The app (ROEHSOFT RAM EXPANDER) 10USD from play store, I got my from torrent
3. And your device P5.
4. Root access.
Note; This was tested on Tecno P 5

Working for me..
Am not responsible for any brick device, so you got to know what you are doing...
Screen shot coming soon..

From what I know Ram and rom are very different. No way to expand your ram with your rom. Ever wondered why laptops with 1tb HDD do not come with upto even 50GB ram? Any app that is lying to you that you can expand ram from MMC is Jonsing you all you may end up with is virtual memory which is too slow for a 1gz processor to fetch data from. But if you want expand ram true true get screw driver and soldering iron when you are ready tell me. I go guide you.

plZ how can I mk calls & check balance on SIM2 P5 kind of confused ??

Well, you're right about the RAM and ROM thing... it's actually called Swapping, and it's done temporarily for stuffs like gaming etc... See the Diff between both images.

p2 is faster than p5 on edge network too, but nokia e5 or 6730 is faster than both p2 and p5 on edge netwk

We might luv Tecno because of what dey doing good but dat shouldn't alw stop us 4rm saying d truth concerning how d fone works. I use P5 & I can tell U it lags sometimes which is normal for a fone with 512mb RAM. What pisses me off is d screen sensitivity. It sometimes takes more than one touch to respond.

@dragnet, pls, how was my post insultive?

512mb ram will run like butter on gingerbread. Let's hope android 4.4 fix this too much system resources eating in 4.x I have a laptop with 512mb ram and ran fine. The processor is even single core an 800mhz so I think android 4.x was poorly implemented

Skseries: First i must say this is my first time posting on NL i juz had to clear this up a little. Am nt a fan of any brand, am juz a lover of gud tins, if there was a 9ja phone that runs on 4.2 jb android trust me i dnt care wot the name is as long as it cn last me 2years plus and cheap am buying. That said i happen to cum across the p5 yesterday and trust me if any1 is sayin the phone is nt gud, the person must av a personal beef.,. Am gonna be sincere with you.
1st the phones comes with 1.3ghz dual core. Apparently tecno wrote 1.0ghz dual core on the phone pack so that cause sum mix up. Bt it is actualy 1.3ghz. 2ndly the phone runs on 512mb ram and i see no reason to complain abt that, cus i run apps as much as i want and theres no hanging or lagging. 3rd the screen is nt just sensitive it is super sensitive i bearly had to touch b4 it respond. It respons to d slightest touch
4th the camera. Am nt gonna say the camera is super gud compare to the likes of sonyericcson samsung and so on trust me p5 camera is no match, but if u arnt a camera crazy user then u wil b cool wit it, actualy it has a 5mp bck and 2.0 front. i didnt get to test the flash so am nt gonna talk abt it.
5th. If u are tinking abt graphics, the intaface.operations speakers trust me they are of standard, speaker sounds very gud like any big branded phone. Its 4.0inch as was said.
And yes the ba3. Hmmmm we all knw android runs heavily and ba3 power is nt juz a problem wit tecno. Is same basically wit every brand. On a heavy usuage i mean gamin browsing music and so on the back last at least 7hr and tops 10hr. Bt on standby i mean juz a few use it cud go for 3days without charging.
Finally . A new brand tecno in a box comes with, a charger wit usb, headset, a transparent plastic pouch, the phone already comes with a screen guide on the screen, so no need for buyn again and the gud part it comes with a 8gb mmc. So remember to ask for that. U are entitled to get it..
Price last i bought at alaba just 15.500naira.

... u v spoken well, av bin usin my P5 since 1st of oct n c no reason 4 d condemnatn. d flash is 1 of d bst eva fone flash d@ i av come across, d only prob wit d fone is d 3G ntwrk. d camera aint ncouragn xpecially d front camera.

seunlayi: moreover, consider when P2 has problem, who will repair it compared to tecno

thats truth sha,i also thought of dat.

Can someone help me with d link of how to root p5 without PC, or better still explain how I can root with framaroot. Tnx.

Download Framaroot 1.6.0
Choose Install Super Su
Click on Bromir
It will tell you to reboot your device if it's successful.
Reboot your device
If you see Super Su after putting on the device, know that it was successful
Or download root checker from g.play.

that's because you combined power button + vol up.. Just use the volume down button and select restart system... Then use the vol up to select it.. That's all..
