If you have next feelings, you might just stick to kitkat or flash custom lollipop. I'm planning to flash CM12.1 or MIUI soon that is after I roll back to KK because those roms are KK based so I'll update you
OP please update us if you are through with it, wanna know how Cynogen mode works on it, hope it is 5.1.1

Advice to all those intending to flash custom ROM. Do not upgrade to lollipop! I repeat if you want to flash custom ROM, do not upgrade to lollipop. I flashed and got my phone bricked. Although I've restored it. Presently all the custom ROMs available are kk based and flashing it on top of lollipop with give you touch sensitivity issues. Although reviews from XDA and 4PDA.ru States that CM 12.1 is the most stable and bug less ROM available for the device till date just don't upgrade to lollipop if you want to flash it.

that's the first ussd u input , I have no problem with the first ussd, the problem begins when there is subsequent prompts example : dial *123# then next prompt to select ur desired plan, you ll not see what you are typing in the prompts dialogue box , check the screen shot s

I tried it and it worked for me. Try to touch above the green line and it'll work. Although it will type in white colour

I have just flashed the CM12 rom, I have noticed a bug with the dialer, it doesn't show ussd results like checking account balance etc, and the contact is not showing any number. I restore my stock rom for now until I have a solution or a better rom.

wow! So fast? Try updating the cynogen mode through OTA maybe it will fix the bug.

Battery performance of this phone is excellent two of browsing Internet on constant 3G, I still have 80+ juice. On moderate usage I'm sure the battery will last for 2 days.

So I got this phone and like most people, I wasn't able to wait till I get home so I opened the package in a hurry and I found these things ;


(i) the phone
(ii) plastic case
(iii) screen protector
(iv) 2.0a/5.2v charger + a USB cable
(v) head phone (not the best quality sha and I intend quitting the use of these things so it doesn't matter to me)
(vi) user manual

It is important to note that the packaging of this phone is not very eye catching. Very simple and small carton. Some photos are coming up shortly.

OK if after rooting and installing a custom I then decided to upgrade to official lollipop 5.0.2 via OTA is it possible?
