seems allview p5 energy has a marshmallow update, devs should look into it.. we could just port it for our phones

CaParu:
for different countries maybe a little difference in firmware. but devices is clones
sorry, what is a "Walton"?

it's a stock home screen for Russian FirmWare :

nice... Dats definitely amigo

oh! Walton is a Mobile brand(based in india i think) that rebrands gionee phones just like blu, allview etc... They've got quite a number of devs

Elposeidon:
Na cos of scammers I write am dat way o.....

got it... you can edit your post now

CaParu:
in Russia it named Highscreen PowerFour
in europe - AllView P5 Energy

m3mini clone but with extended memory

4peace:
Highscreen Power Four

I thought the m3mini was built specifically for the Nigerian market.... This a superb news

does it have a Walton clone?

BTW caparu, your UI looks nothing like amigo 3.1... The switch bar normally slides from beneath

@caparu... what's the name of your device?

CaParu:
Hello Guys! sorry for my english. i'm from Russia. We have similar device, but with 16GB of memory. I allready make full working TWRP Recovery for your device M3mini.

Flashing it with SPFlashTool. Recommended version 5.1504 for windows: http://mtk2000.ucoz.ru/bbk/SPW504.rar

Remember! Before flashing turnoff your phone and connect it after pressing key DOWNLOAD in SPFlashTool!

wow! thanks a lot pal

Hawlahscho:
I'll suggest you do it again.
it happened to me when I was flashing to my Gionee m5. I did it again and it worked.

Actually had that in mind, but since its not my PC, can't do it ryt away... Thanks a lot

[quote author= post=41344629]I know what's wrong but can only provide step by step support at our forum.[/quote]That'd be no problem at all, lemme just try again... If it doesn't work, I'll get back to you at the forum

@Hovateck

I download the Twrp image & scatter file zip, installed the Sp flash tool in your tutorial... my phone automatically installed gionee amigo USB drivers and sp flash tool recognized it... I followed the steps in the tut and got a "download ok"... rebooted my phone and still had my stock recovery

Don't know what went wrong... I didn't get any error and i double checked the location of the recovery.img before tapping "download"

Elposeidon:
Can I get your whatsapp digits?? ??

drop yours instead, I'll add you

4peace:
I'm not referring to the work but the manner some dude will brick their fone.

well you're here to help na

#faints.... merry Christmas to all m3 users, Santa just dropped our gift *root*

*smiling lyk I just won a lottery*..


cc: seumlayi, 4peace, augster etc.

To all the awesome M3 mini users, I donpre sincerely wishes y'all a blissful Christmas and a super dope new year in advance

Bann3d:
I was able to get stock recovery and boot images with a scatter file I generated manually (with 100% accuracy!)
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9qe0j3R2UEkR19ZVVhzYy1KcWs/view?usp=sharing

since your twrp doesn't work properly at the moment, try n help us test Hovateck's version


BTW, Thanks for the stock recovery and boot images, they'd be useful.... Pls try and make a sp flashable zip of your stock ROM, knowing people and their over-sabi, we'd have bricked devices that would need it soon

**sips LA casera whilst checking list**

Oh! The gionee M3 mini is there... Moving on then


I'm shocked not seeing the L5, C5 and C8 there.... @Op remove the Y6 and J7, those are outdated sh!!t

Ay04z:
hello phone gurus is there any android phone with 4.5 inches screen, 2g ram lollipop version and a good battery life. .tanks .nid to get a phone asap

No!

Gionee M3 mini & Tecno L5 are the only 4.5" phones with badazz battery life but they're all 1gb RAM

Bestest Christmas Gift Ever!!!

Hovateck seems to have ported TWRP for our dear baby(its about time).. Goto this link and drop your number if you have

* a PC

Bann3d:
I've Been trying to port TWRP to m3 mini but it's still far from done. Important functions like backup/restore, installation of zip files, etc. are not working yet.

wow! Great work... But how did you get the files needed

I bought mine for 17k on tue @ Finet, Awolowa house, Awolowo Rd, Ikeja.... Very 9ce Fone.

Pickabeau... you stay in Lag ryt?

Carlmax:
Hold on let me see if I can upload a screen shot, but meanwhile, let me know how to navigate to the pattern lock. Thanks

settings => security => screen security => screen lock... then tap the gear(settings) icon on security password and choose which type of security you'd prefer to use

olayinkajnr:
Truth be told, MC3 works.. I've ever finish playing it and uninstalled it

on your M3 mini?... if yes, holla the link my way

IKON360:
Evn though dis fone's multi tasking is poor, u can play sum dope games, 4 me I'm on Modern combat 3 after fifa 14 nxt is gangster vegas... Dis Christmas will b luvly...

@bolded... are you sure MC3 works? post some screenshots

I've wasted over 2gb on that stupid game

Oma307:
The functions pls

it helps check and download updates/upgrades for your device

Glowstone:
Preferred storage please

Android 4.4 and above doesn't support that


**you'll have to install to phone memory then "move to SD card" in app info

or better still

goto system manager => app manager, tap the truck icon on the top right corner, then tick the apps you wanna move and tap "move to SD card"

Glowstone:
Hello bro please how can I change my default storage to memory card

please try to be more elaborate
default storage for what?... or do you mean preferred installation storage?

Nsonaso:
Bro I need this phone badly.... where can I get it in Abuja or Benue state

drop a post at the m3 mini thread, someone around your vicinity would give you a shop and possible price

CaParu:
Hello guys! i need help where i can download firmware for M3mini ?

did you brick your device?
anyway, its not currently available

Phoenix619:
Hey I got a friend's pc, link to the necessary drivers and steps. In case I'm missing something

At the moment, it seems the process is too complicated... MT67xx wahala

we're tryna get the firmware from a gionee engineer, when we do, TWRP might be possible

Thanks for wanting to help, You can also drop a root request via king root, so they'd make a root exploit for m3 mini

Rozan10:
do you know anybori hu has succeeded in rooting it?

Nope... its still under testing at the moment

pickabeau1:
Lol

I will check Konga

I don't think gionee sells their phones online... just drop the name of your resident state and someone would direct you to a store where you can get it

Dacronym:
To be honest, dis phone kinda ugly though, them no even try make am fine small sef

you can't have it all dude... That's the cost you gotta pay for a bigger battery

pickabeau1:
How can I get this phone?

ermmm dunno.... but i think you walk into a shop and drop 16.5k, then take the phone


not sure tho #kidding

Dacronym:
Kk. So it should get d android M update.

that depends on gionee
