Please... What are the best way of rooting this device. I am on android 4.4. 2. Better still, is there anyway one can also root the device without tripping Knox?

I have a master and a visa card. I could by for you if you would pay the equivalent in Naira

Is it Ad supported? Hate apps that have ads, especially the intrusive ones.

Root your phone. Download Android firewall and enable it. Choose the applications you want to allow to connect by ticking either data or Wi-Fi depending on your connection. Then spooky the changes. Voila!

Archangels1: life is funny. a few months ago i craved to use nokia c7 and even offered a guy 20k for it but he refused then along came tecno which changed the landscape of smartphones in nigeria.... farewell symbian. i flexed u while u lasted. still miss my coreplayer though

You haven't used MX-Player bro

Teenzy: I really dont agree with u on No7..A guy will definitely ask a girl if she has a bf to know what he's up against....

I for one won't ask a girl about her boyfriend because you stand the risk of strengthening the "brick wall" around the girl making it more difficult to get the girl. I have always wondered why that happens... then I reckoned... if a girl tells you she has a boyfriend, she would want to prove her loyalty as a lady by not giving you a chance making it more difficult for you.

This is a very myopic way of comparing things...How can you compare apples and oranges? Take Phantom A+ and compare it with a Samsung phone of that price range...you would see the the fact that you just woke up and felt like typing. You must be joking if you really want a gorilla glass phone for that price range.. e be like say you no get work...you fit go mop river Niger...

My own be say I'm always meeting virgins...and they all wanna keep it till marriage...ahan...wetin...dem send them? Five now...that is what I call unlucky...I need open road abeg!!!

It's so slow. I wonder if there is anything I did wrong?

maxdozie: does this mean dis device doesnt accept font changing? Pls i need an urgent ans cos am goin 2get dis device 2moro nd i luv changing fonts

I wonder why people keep complaining about Ifont. I have used and trusted it on my e3 and my friend phantom. Download the recommended online fonts within the application...they're so many of them. Use the recommended settings. simple. I use the pro version sha. Get from apkmania.

Please does Gionee e3 supports USB OTG?

Can USB OTG work on Gionee e3?

Hmmm I was like this when I flashed infinity HDv2,the battery was dropping by 1% every 30 mins, flash it more than 10 times,but people still give credit to the ROM but I can tell you same version is best along Xperia HDv1 made by lilabm

Which ROM are you on? Besides, the Xperia HD V1 I have is that by Kumar Abishek.

4peace:

I can't stop laughing dude
Nothing like that on both

Well, that what I noticed sha. Flashed it twice... Same thing.
Besides, did you Flashed yours from Nigerian or Chinese firmware?

gbodimowo:

The tts is Russian so if you like your phone talking to you in English you will not get it to happen but I have fixed that by installing Google text to speech engine

On Xperia HD V1...I noticed that apps on memory card disappears when you reboot phone. Did anyone notice that? Besides is it same with V2. And again, any other bug?

More Canvas 4 ROM reviews.
1. Front camera doesn't work. No wonder the video player force closes when you tamper with the "look away pause" setting. Even the video calling on Skype and any other app that use front camera will tell you "Camera is busy, close any app using the camera"

2. Battery life is poorer and the phone feels warm. Using android tuner, I could see that at any given time, 2 of the 4 cores are active when you view it in CPU manager.

3. Music player doesn't play smoothly. It skips when lock screen comes up . And sometimes , the lock screen will refuse to unlock.

4. The only thing I enjoyed in this ROM so far is the wonderful audio quality. If you love music, mehn e make sense die. Just make sure the "earphone audio enhancement is on".

5. Going back to stock ROM jare. I'm out. I will try Xperia HD v2 later this week.

kayceeukah007: @omobone do u stay in Lagos......if you do I will appreciate if we can see

I'm not in Lagos now and won't be coming back until the next one month or so.

Gravitizer: Op, All features works very well.
The've been de-activated by default. U need 2 activate them.
Btw: That's what am using now. I didnt enjoy MIUI v5 dat much.
So, am back on Canvas 4

Did you flash from Nigerian firmware or Chinese firmware? Cos I found it difficult from flashing from Nigerian firmware. I had to delete some files from the canvas 4 ROM and replaced them with some files from stock ROM. Could it be why some functions like the look away and pause thingy don't work properly?

So, how do i activate them? I'm currently using the ROM now sha. Cos the video player keeps nagging that "it seems that your device does not support camera or it is locked." and it closes. what will do about it?

I finally flashed the canvas 4 ROM. Thanks guys. These are my reviews...more coming up.
1. Antutu Benchmark: 13109 compared with 13679 of stock rom. But Benchmark scores is not a true test of performance sha. Will put it to test for gaming soon.
2. I noticed that my phone feels warmer than before...a lil bit sha
3. Better audio output. Thanks to Canvas 4 audio enhancement.
4. I noticed that the look away and pause feature doesn't work. Instead, clicking the icon in the video player crashes it(is there any fix?)
5. There is confirmed 3G in sim 2
6. When you edit the build.prop and change to E3, the Video and music player becomes disabled and refuses to play.
7. Radio, camera, everything works fine. Overall, the ROM is stable so far.
8. More review soon.

I tried flashing chinese firmware using the method posted on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2399708
But, the SP flash tool just remains there...I ran flashtool.exe as an admin...all was futile. Is there anything I'm doing wrong? This Canvas 4 ROM no want make I flex am o.

Ok...I've decided to flash chinese firmware. How do I go back to the Nigerian firmware if I want to? I already have a nandroid backup of my Nigerian firmware. Will the recovery for the chinese firmware be able to restore that previous nandroid backup of my Nigerian firmware?

Godvilla: U can flash custom rom directly via the Nigerian firmware BUT u'll need 2 replace some files in the custom rom with ur default rom. Procedure can only be carried out on PC with the help of Winzip

So, which files do I need to remove? Secondly, will the files I would replace from my default ROM come from my Backup? @4peace, CWM recovery 6.0.2.8 compiled by Bruno Martins

Godvilla: Its best u flash the rom 4rm the Chinese firmware. U dnt nid 2 swap boot.img!!!
Remember 2 clear cache, system, partistion and dalvik cache b4 u flash the rom.
Follow every procedure and u'll get ur device running on Canvas 4

Thanks...so, there's no work around of flashing from Nigerian Firmware? Besides, can the recovery version affect the outcome of flashing? I'm using Recovery 6.0.2.8.

@Godvilla, thanks for the response...will do so now.

Please, after flashing canvas 4 ROM...I was stuck @Boot. Then I restored the Boot.img file from my backup. It booted with a blank screen and I can't select anything from the welcome screen. The screen is just blank. The light does not stay on for me to slect anything. @Godvilla, 4peace and all the gurus...I need una help o.

Please...anybody tested Canvas 4 and Infinity Hd roms? Which is better?

Please...i flash Xperia HD Version 1 and there is no Battery info while charging if the phone is off. Any work around? Secondly...is Xperia HD version 2 better?

Click like if you didn't get anything.

Please guys, which is the best FireWall application for android?

LORDEST: A battery and a power bank !!!

Wow...that's great. What is the PowerBank's capacity? And is it Gionee Branded? Thanks

KingMEXX: It also has a higher processor speed and a 5mp front cam. these are the differences

@KingMEXX...what I want to know is that are these better features of E5 enough to give up the advantages of 2sims, SDcard slot, removable battery and cheaper price of the E3? Are there really considerable differences when u run apps and games? Waiting for reply
