After that reboot the phone.

Bro, all you need do is handle this phone and you won't mention your gionee anyolmore. THL 5000 has more Antutu benchmark ranking than Samsung's S4, go check it out.
I use this device and know it's power.
Guys hope you know there are several custom roms for this great device?
Thats because they are cheating in benchmarks thats why 13megapixel shows 18MP.

But i removed useless apps af1234 market, tecno input etc. So you wont be able to update(ota) so if you like ota updates you should use this rom as a short time solution until someone uploads another untouched stock rom.

Pls how can I use mobile Uncle to do this. Explain pls
I think you should use rashr flash tool (because i just checked and i found that rashr works with non touch recovery and mobile uncle works with carliv recovery) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.mkrtchyan.recoverytools&hl=en&referrer=utm_source%3Dgoogle%26utm_medium%3Dorganic%26utm_term%3Drashr&pcampaignid=APPU_N_BxVLGSIs_aaqKYgsgC

extract recovery.img on the root of sdcard then open flash tools and click on recovery, then from storage, then choose recovery.img then click ok.

It didnt work for me, it says rebooting phone to recovery but once it reboots it is the normal cwmr. I tried it on my Friend's f6 and it worked. Can you upload your varliv recovery because my friend has no plan to backup his phone so i cant extract the carliv r.
PhonesRe: Why Is The Better Sammy Note 4 Cheaper Than Iphone6? by towncheerup(m): 12:21pm On Nov 22, 2014
martineverest:
Dont be deceived by specs......performances matters.android devices re full of bloatwares dat make it lag 'lagdroid'.due to dis defect,android fone makers are forced to increase their specs to compensate d discrepancy. iphones and windows phone are almost lagfree....1gb ram of iphone is better dan any android of 4gb ram.or compare lumia 630 with 512mb ram and any android device with 1gb ram..this lopside comes as a result of android being an open-source os unlike apple,windows and bb fones.
I don't think it is android which lags, i think high end android phones lags because they have high resolution ex. Note 4(2k) so the gpu straggles to push those pixels which makes the phone lag.

Yes, i installed the OTA update with Carliv touch Recovery

Steps to install OTA via CTR(Carliv Touch Recovery)

1) Install Carliv Touch Recovery
2) Root the Phone
3) Boot into Recovery by pressing Volume Down + On
4) Disable Signature Verification and enable script asserts
5) The update would be in /sdcard1/system_updates/update.zip
6) Use Aroma Manager to move the update.zip to your /sdcard1/ root folder
7) Click "Apply update.zip"
cool Update Installs
9) Reboot
10) Thank coolsix
11) Bye

@Uman01 I'm from Tanzania and i do have the CWM in my phone. Hello there developers. I'm using Tecno F6 and install CWM but then i never new if resetting it in a normal way of going through SETTINGS > BACKUP & RESET could cause problems..so the next thing i found my device acting weird during the process of formatting so believing i'm saving the phone from further injury i decided to disconnect the battery and then i turned it on and there it is..HOME button doesnt work, notification panel doesnt show nothing, and if i hold power button it only brings two options, REBOOT and SHUT DOWN while at first it had so many options. Please help..i must have tampered the OS i believe cry

AND by the way Guys for those with CWM in their phone the OTA update wont work at atll..during the process of installing it will give you this error sayin the update is for tecno f6 and the device is MTK..i dont understand now. But that is what happened to me...

@Uman01 do something
Hey im from Tanzania too!!, where do you live??

Do you have the cwm backup?? If you have it why don't you restore it.
I tried to install the update but it failed i have cwmr and i deleted some bloatware which came with the phone. sad any one with the stock rom with all apps which came with the phone??

Maybe he purchased a different device... From his screenshot the statusbar doesn't even look like that of Tecno... Probably a Tecno clone... Which would be really sad...

@Towncheerup where or who did you purchase the device from ?
nani can you still install ota update even if you have tempered with xposed and you have deleted some bloatware??

pls what is d work of that xposed.i like to know
Xposed Framework is a way to make system-level changes to your Android operating system without installing a custom ROM. You intall xposed framework then different modules which can do many things like to theme your phone, like changing status bar icons and making your status bar transparent or changing settings icons and background.

Are these apps lying or Tecno.??
I bought tecno f6 two weeks ago and i noticed that the battery is so bad.
I installed cpu-z and it shows 1000mah and also they said that the gpu is mali 400mp2 but
Cpu identifier shows mali 400 single core.

PhonesRe: Tecno F6 Discussion Thread/Rooting by towncheerup(m): 1:24pm On Nov 05, 2014
got the f6 last week. the battery is horrible compared to my phantom A+, it charges really fast(1h.30m) and it drains really fast(i get 3 hrs on heavy usage) and the thing which bothers me the most is why would tecno provide incompatible earphones, you can only hear instrumental but no vocals unless you plug the earphones halfway which you must not shake the phone or the earphones will not work again.
other than those problems the phone is superb.
