You people should mnot always blame it on TECHNO for your own fault,if your phone cannot multitask or was unable to recieve whatsapp message that means you ve on something while trying to manage your battery consuption,just go to setting ;disable what ever battery safer application you have on then start enjoying your camon-c8 and dont blame someone else on your own fault..hope some people learn sha...thanks everybody and if you just get yours WELCOME to CAMON world..so SMOOTH and AMAZING smart phone

The post you were referring to did not give average user a straightforward solution.

Yes, it is a great phone, but i must not see your post of any complain ooooo...

But, Tecno are encouraging us to become a developer to use their Camon C8.

You cannot EDIT the RAM manager "Locked", you cannot EDIT the App tray arrangement..
You can not use Phone storage for App then SD-card for App Data storage, Since once you select default storage as phone or SD that's All..


Here is a brief solution..

Who told them to Enable "Standby intelligent power saving" by default.. Average user dont know where to locate it.
Setting > Battery > then untick

Who told then to Enable "Self-starting management" by default... Setting > Self-starting management> put it off.

An Average user cannot Put the phone on 3G only, Since 2G in Nigeria no fit do anything on Android, 2G is meant for java phones..
Open MTK engineering app >> MTK Settings >> swipe to Telephone if it is not the first option >> Scroll down to "Network Selecting">> Change to "WCDMA only"

Now you will only see 2G or 3G on the phone,Yes Don't be deceived there is No 4G in Nigeria!!!
Under 2G "We have (2G, EDGE, 2.5G)" when the phone network is switching you wont see (2G, EDGE, 2.5G) it will always be 2G..
Under 3G "We have (3G, HSDPA, HSPA, 3.5G, WCDMA, 3.75G, H+, so on..) when the phone network is switching it will always be 3G..

To See how network switch from one band to the other, Since none of this Network have stable connection..
Use MTK engineering app >> MTK settings>> swipe to Connectivity>> CDS Information>> Radio information >> select Phone 1 or 2 >> Look Network Type

To copy and Paste phone number to Dial pad, U must type a number first then press and hold the number to paste you copied number..

The Above will solve most issues..

Finally to solve multitasking issue Please root..
After Rooting u are free from bondage.. cool

finally!! the problem is I've been tryna root my phone since 3days ago. but whenever I connect my phone to the laptop it doesn't come up at all & I tried other phones & they worked well with the laptop. so am thinking it might be a problem from the phone & I've also turned on the debugging mode
Re: Tecno Camon C8 Discussion Thread [HOT] by macbeyland(m): 6:12pm On Oct 30, 2015
Please anyone with any idea of how to switch 3g on both Sim on the Camon c8? The option is not there. Only Sim one has 3g on stock rom. Is there any software to do this?
Re: Tecno Camon C8 Discussion Thread [HOT] by Cre8(m): 6:36pm On Oct 30, 2015

Please note that if you rooting the phone must be switched off,
What you will need is mtk v com driver
You can check youtube to watch, how to install manually I download it with snatube..

Your question is confusing to me...
Both has or do you mean at the same time?

Once I switch data to any sim it switches with 3G..
I used MTK to change to 3G only....
Check my previous posts to see that..

Find attach with 3G on sim 2

Download the latest version of Sp flash tool... It should be able to detect the phone. I had similar issues.

Please go to Device manager confirm if u have the drivers below

Also try and change the connection settings.. On the flash tool
Click options>> connection>> then u can change from UART to USB and vice versa..

Oh I see,. Anyway, I wanted a situation where I can activate 3g on either of both Sims without activating data because I mainly use WiFi but Etisalat network is very poor in my area on 2g but OK on 3g. The problem is if I activate data on it to bring 3g, my airtime will be consumed by background data whenever I lose WiFi network

I have installed many drivers but the only thing I notice is that I don't have Mtk preloader (com9).
The problem is not with flash tool, its with the drivers. How can I get the drivers u used ?

Use MTK engineering to change your network to WCDMA only.. Check page 56 to do that..
