Pls what's the issue with games on SDCARD not being able to play on this device?

I know of a method that could help using cmd and android sdk.

I'm planning on getting M5 tomorrow morning?

by the way, is there any problem u guys mind sharing? battery life so far? camera..etc

Tbh, I dont like this Amigo Interface(its stale..and lacks color unlike XUI or miui7) So i wld be working on a customized rom.

fabolakers:

OK. I want to ask you one question, after flashing the custom recovery, should I boot into recovery immediately or I should on the phone first normally ?

You can do both, but I'll advise you to just boot into recovery directly and backup, by doing so it wont come back to the stock recovery again.

it happened to me too after I've successfully flashed the custom recovery I booted into it and say it after a reboot it came back to stock recovery, I had to do it again and backed up my ROM.

So it's not big deal just do it again

fabolakers:

Yes oh. That's the one I'm using. Its cool but stick to your abuja version. I'm having issues with it. My sim 2 keeps popping "send message" from below myscreen. Still don't know what it means and you won't have option to switch to 3G only which is a big problem in naija here cos your phone will keep switching back to 2g. I had to use *#*#4636#*#* to force it on 3G only mode.

That's something o, but why not get a Nigerian stock ROM version and flash it in

suxxman:
The Firmware file is 1.7gb......

I'd to run back too. it even has bug (according to the user)

Battery life? Dope! Camera? Outstanding! The only issue i'm having thus far is kingroot's inability to root this device!

Is the 23gb memory available for apps or is the memory partitioned? How long does it take to charge? Thanks.

I dont understand what you talking about the memory. The charging is super fast compared to how slow it drains.

If you know where I can get/download one from, would really appreciate it of you share it with me.

I really appreciate your reply. Do I need to back up to phone memory or I will need to insert a formatted memory card into The phone and if its into memory card, will 4GB mcard be enough for the backup?

Eljames:

Yeah. I'm no longer using the Stock ROM that came with my phone due to a minor accident that happened. I downloaded India Stock ROM and it seems like its a higher version than ours but that 3G issue is just the downside but I'm on 3G only mode right now thanks to one code that I used.

What are the changes please

Hawlahscho:


I dont understand what you talking about the memory.
The charging is super fast compared to how slow it drains.

I mean, are you allowed to use the full phone memory to install apps or is it like m2 where you are only given 1.5gb to install apps?
What is the charging time from 0 to 100

tivta:

Charging time doesn't exceed 2hrs. Although, i've never used it below 30% sha. Yeah! The battery is that good.

Timbuktu14:
proffinco!!! Where you @?

LOL.. Only rooted m5 can play obb games from SD card bt it plays all games i installed on it.. "very nice/detailed colors" .. You won't regret buying this beasty device...

Timbuktu14:

Automatically it'll backup to phone memory for you and you can later move it to SD card if you like, you can even restore it from otg if it's on it.

tivta:

You're allowed to install on all d available space though mine never complain.
charging time if you off it from zero to hundred be like 2 hours but while on may take up to 2.5 hours while while operatn is approximately 3 hours

Please I am on the verge of selling my M5 because every high game app I have in my phone always shuts itself down whenever I am playing it and it really sucks!

Please any ideas to help remedy the situation will be highly appreciated. Every time I launch my games it will crash and restart itself..sent know what to do again.
Please help

Though I don't play games with my phone. I've seen video gaming reviews. It runs very well. Maybe you've downloaded for the wrong processor

can you please post the link to download indian stock rom

thanks
