elephone R9 & elephone S7 compatibility - Elephone R9 Questions & Answers

Hi,
From what I've seen, it seems that 100% of the hardware of both R9 and S7 are exactly the same.
Can someone confirm me that?
Also, if it's true, does that mean that all the tools available for elephone S7 (MTK Scatter, CWM, ROM, etc.) are compatible and will work 100% with elephone R9?

Would love to know this too! Got an R9 since yesterday and the stock rom is good but lineage or look-a-like roms would be much better.

The MTK Scatter would be compatible. Both are running the Helio X20 (except the X27 in one version of the s7), so the scatter would be compatible.
But if someone tryed out the software from the s7, running on the r9, I would be interested in it, because I'm bought the r9 4+64gb blue, and just the s7 has already a TWRP etc.

Custom roms for A3

Hi there, I have noticed that the A5 and A7 variants have gotten quite a bit of development in terms of custom ROMs. Also, both seem to be going to get the Marshmallow update. I would like to ask if anyone can get me up to speed in terms of the development on this phone? Thanks in advance.
There doesn't seem to be anyone interested in developing ROMs for this phone. Unfortunately, I posses no knowledge of making ROMs, otherwise, I would certainly made attempts by now.
I am willing to help as much as I can if anyone wants to develop any ROM for the device.
Custom ROMs should still be developed even if our device doesn't get Marshmallow. 5.0.2 AOSP is great and much better than touchwiz. If ROMs can be made for A5, I don't see why should there be problems with A3?
Maybe we can start off by porting an A5 aosp ROM into A3.
A3 is getting 6.0" but some custom roms would be nice support seems scares shame really . Anyone no if cf-auto root works 5.0.2 yet all seem to point 4.4.4

If you want to make an A3 build, you can use A5 Device Tree but you will need to adapt it, screen resolution, RAM, kernel, and blobs are different than A5's ones.
Maybe I can build CM or AOSP for A3, but I don't have the device and testers for it.
If you need proprietary files for A3 tell me, thanks!

Or if you can explain to me how to build from source I can try myself, I have BuilduntuVM installed on my VirtualBox, so it's ready to compile.

A7 isn't getting a custom ROM also. (SS-A700F that is) There is no Device tree. Otherwise i'd build something. But A3 is not alone on this unfortunately.

Suggestions for S8 port

Hi all! Just bought Samsung S7 edge (SM-G935F) and I am quite happy with stock Nougat rom.
BUT, after I watched some videos about S8 port, I am considering to flash my device.
The only thing that worries me is bugs. As I understand most of this ports do have some bugs.
Can you please tell me what do you think, which port is the most stable one?
Or do you think that I should stick with stock Samsung rom?
Any advice is appreciated

I've tried the batman 1.1.1 s8 port rom on my s7 edge and I have the same model as you. The rom is great without any bugs. You can flash a sticker fix and secure folder fix zip file which will make more or less all the function that work on the s8 work on your s7 edge. For obvious reasons iris scanner won't work. Face detection and fingerprint works though.
Try it you won't regret it. Got my s7 edge 3 weeks ago and now I wouldn't even consider to go back to stock Nougat. I will only go stock when android O 8.0 arrives.
You can find the batman rom here. From what I have read in the forums the batman rom is king of s8 ported roms.

Thanks very much for your help. This is exactly what I needed. Sorry for a bit delayed answer, I was setting up Batman rom and my device..
So, yeah. It seems that this is one of the best roms for S7 Edge. It's working great for now, but it does have some minor bugs. Everything is pretty fast, very similar to stock Nougat, except the app drawer. When I'm opening a drawer it is a little bit laggy, but it's not a big deal.
And I did notice that battery life is affected, but that's normal for custom roms. Everything else works perfectly.
Once again, thanks very much for your help.
Cheers

[help] [dev's] [galaxy e5|e7] rom galaxy e5 in e7 cm 13 works

the business is as follows DEV'S, I tested the ROM CM 13 of E5 on my GALAXY E7 (E700M) modifying the updater-script file and managed to make the ROM work seemingly, the problem is in the touch that does not work and the screen if I press the power button and it turns off, it does not turn on again the screen, the cellphone only makes normal noises and sounds with volume keys) without bootloop or anything, I tried to restore the original boot.img of the Galaxy E7 to see if it works the touch but then it was in bootloop! Do you think it would be possible to make it work? because it already works really! only not 100% hahahah

A small EUI does not exist for the Le Pro 3 ( as it does for other leeco devices) However the Crisball EUI 6.30s is based on the latest official EUI Rom and although its a Marshmallow based rom it's actually very good and feels modern. Plus, it comes with a better launcher option and a better camera which is based on the Pixel Rom.
You can get it here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-pro3/development/eui-6-0-30s-official-cleaned-modded-t3861529
Tip
Only install the last version V8, and do not install any of the addon's they were made for the initial version and will break the installation...enjoy.

There is no smallEUI for pro 3 because aurel doesn't own the device. You cannot create a ROM for a phone you don't own. Though, technically, you can, it would be a nightmare unless you have a group of dedicated testers who have some experience with modding and troubleshooting stuff

Hi, I have these rooms EUI-6.0.30s Official-Cleaned-Modded LEX720 Discontinued but the sound call is very low, I have the firmware 20s Any idea how I can solve it?

Just bought a seller refurbished Xiaomi Redmi 2 ROM advice?

I'm pretty new to Android. Just bought a seller refurbished Xiaomi Redmi 2 (HM 2LTE-CMCC) 2GB 16GB 2014CP6123 from ebay. Has MUI 7.0 4.4.4 ktu84p. Should I factory reset (to get rid of any Chinese viruses/spyware etc.) and then flash EU Rom or global? I don't want to root it as I want to use banking apps etc. but would like the latest possible Android version which I read is nougat, is installing a custom Rom different to EU/Global Rom? Would a custom Rom affect the apps available on the play store? (I rooted an android tablet and couldn't use banking apps etc.)
Hoping someone could give me step-by-step general advice and best Roms etc/tutorials links? Also the video recording stated it would be 1080p but is a little fuzzy, it's turned itself off once or twice from sleep mode despite being almost fully charged and the battery seems to quite quickly. Do I need to buy a new battery?
Seems your phone is Redmi 2 Enhanced (HM2014813) which is China only version. i'm sorry to tell you that this version has no official global rom (China rom only available), no custom rom, and mostly no much help about this device. I think the used Leadcore CPU is the main problem.
Flashing miui rom using fastboot method is recommended to get rid of some bloatware. Please note you will still get some xiaomi chinese apps after flashing due to your phone variant.
