Stock Rom Issue - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
I'm owning a Cubot King Kong 3 and I have following Problem:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It's the normal Stock Rom and as you see, the red "Not Verify" message in the right corner is active every time. expect, some other OVERLAY is in the front.
I'm really helpless. My thoughts of what it could be: Android Rom itself, the Launcher (can't be becouse I installed nova), some google thing.
I can't find a single thing about that in the internet. All I know: It's devinetly an Overlay. (Wich isn't shown in the "permission for overlaying"-settings)
Another Problem:
The Navigation Bar in Android 8.1
Who the heck need's the recent apps button? I want my menu-button back from Android 5-
What I tried so far (without success):
Editing the Generic.kl in /system/usr/keylayout --> Changed "key 580 APP_SWITCH" to "key 580 MENU"
Change Settings in Gravitybox [O]
Tried SEVERAL key remapper/navigation-bar-editors/etc. (with and without needed root) --> All I got was a brick --> had to flash the Stock Rom again...

Today I got a mail from the Cubot Support. We may formated the whole phone and deleted the Google-Key. The Support asked me to send them a screenshot of my Build-Number.
I also mentioned your Problem with the Calls.
May you try to send it to the Support as well.

I been reading everyone's issuses on cubot King Kong 3 because I'm having the same problems with same device with apps started hanging and device reboots at random times or when app crashes cuases the device to reboot so normally the next best thing to do is try to reflash rom so I went ahead ran sp flash tools used Cubot.net official rom now I have the red text of horror "Not Verify" and I can't make calls and imei has change to some other different one so I have tried for couple days trying to figure this out the problem and I have tried downgrading to older version of Rom I found Cubot_King_Kong_3_MT6763_20180810_8.1.0 ran sp flash tools without using the preloader_asd0sdi looks like this "uncheck" on sp flash tools and it booted just fine without the words "Not Verify" but look in : About phone-->baseband version was blank and also imei was blank but then I notice that I rom was able to receive and update so I tried update threw device and after updating the device rom update software look exactly same the way the day I got but the drawback the words of eternal hell "Not Verify" came back and so I realized it's not the device problem it's Cubot.net rom on site cubot.net/support/firmware/kingkong3/ <--- is bad rom

Google added a key since Oero, your key is lost because of ROM flashing , this is caused a bug in earlier ROM version.
Check your ROM version number please, the latest one should be V10_11212018.
I have sent you PM with the link to download tool and key files, because i m not able to publish link here.

Regarding to the calling issue:
What response you get when you calling someone?
Dial *#06# check if your IMEI still there.
What is your ROM version number?

[Q] HELP NEEDED! Cannot Send SMS, Error Synchronizing

Hello.
I just got a TG01, I am using it in Digi network at Malaysia.
There is a problem with SMS: I can't send SMS message, but I can receive SMS... MMS is working just fine.
Whenever i send SMS, the SMS will stay in Outbox while sending and then pop out the message say " Your message cannot be send", after clicking that "Error Synchronizing" will appear at the bottom.
Anyone have any idea for that or solution before?! Thank you.

What ROM did you use?
If you use a custom ROM then disable HTC Messaging because is not working with TG01.

The phone is Toshiba TG01 with original WM 6.5 Pro (CE OS 5.2.21840 - Build 21840.5.0.60).
Can i disable HTC Messaging using the original rom?!

I suppose not!
Because original ROM is not using HTC communication manager!
My solution is only for custom ROM build around HTC Sense software!
But it must be an official solution for you also.

Call to the Carrier help line and ask for SMS server number. Check if in your settings is the same number!

i checked the "Text Messages Service Centre" number in my phone setting, it is just the same number "+60162999902" with the Carrier website FAQ link.
Do you think i need to upgrade original ROM from toshiba website?! Or just need to edit registry to solve this problem?

If I were you I update with an Custom ROM made by one of the developers from this forum.
From my experience any custom ROM is faster and more reliable than original ROM made by Toshiba.
I recommend a Miro 8 custom ROM because is stable an has everything in it.
(In Miro 8 you can disable HTC SMS software)
Check the time on your clock is correct. (or select automatic time).
Hi, i have solved the probloem by updating the ROM from toshiba website. thanks for all of your help!!!
To be fair, you made out that you were already on the original ROM... so we discounted that. Glad you got it solved.

Could anyone explain how mms really work

I have a Verizon Driod Incredible 2 flashed to Metropcs and whenever put it back to stock rom I am able to get mms... if I switch to a custom Rom no matter if configure APN the same way don't work.... I do have my data connection in all the cases with no problem... but I can't figured out how to make it work... please could someone explain how mms really work?

The numeric is your apns MCC+MNC.
For example my carriers mcc is 310 and the mnc is 004. So my build.prop numeric should be 310004.
---------- Post added at 01:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:25 PM ----------
Also have you tried opening the voice dialer app, say "open apns" and then adding your apn. Make sure to name it, hit save and highlight the little circle out to the side to select that apn.
where do I edit this?

The easiest way is the use ES File Explorer (or other file manager). Make sure to turn on Root Explorer, Up to Root, and Mount File System in the settings.
Then browse the the /system and you should see a file called build.prop. Make sure to back up this file (copy and put on your computer). Open the build.prop on your phone and find the line that looks similar to this "ro.cdma.home.operator.number=" there will be a number after the = sign. See if it matches the number from your apn. If not then change it to your numeric and hit save.

You may need to restart your phone. Then try mms. If it doesn't work then add you apn manually using the voice dialer method.

Look up MetroPCS's apns (google is your friend) and see if the apn matches the apn found in /etc. Again you'll have to turn on root explorer and mount file system.
Send me a link to the rom you're using and I can see if the apns match MetroPCS for you.

I did try different ROM and whenever I have to return to stock ROM just restore my apn setting backup with the apps and work again - but I want to try AOKP for vivow - I been messing with some many GB Rom - and there are not perfect Rom - at lease this one is the most stable ROM that I tryed so far and want to get the MMS working - everything else like camera, internet, sms, email, battery & performance is really good....

Try adding your apn using this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2053705 (take a look at the backup file that you had from stock) and see if that will get it to work on the CM10 rom you're on right now.
Send me the link to the rom you want to try and I can see if I can edit it before you flash it. I assume you just flash a new rom and gapps through CWM or TWRP recovery?

Hmm if you want just take a look at your stock mms apn or send it too me and I can add that to the rom before you flash it.. Maybe I didn't quite have the correct settings for MetroPCS mms apn.
So can you not just use the Voice Dialer app to open apns?
You're welcome on the rom mod for Metro, it's always nice when it shows your carrier instead of Verizon

Ok well after doing a bit more diggin on Metropcs it looks like it may not be as simple as the edits I have to do to my roms to get mms to work. Try digging around on here and seeing if any of these methods work for the Droid Incredible 2.

thank you for the link!!! finally is working but I didn't follow exactly like the link explain... everything was well setup but when I change the mms.apk, it work... I still don't understand how this work but maybe the mms.apk is modded to whoever carrier you are using....I guess, i'm not really sure!!!
anyway, Thank you!, Thank you!, Thank you!, Thank you!, Thank you!, Thank you!, Thank you!, ...
well that is great. I am glad it worked!
ok, I got the part of getting the proper APNs configuration.....
but what about replacing Mms.apk?
will that work for any other ROM?
what is the modification of Mms.apk....

I'm not sure why the modified mms.apk is needed. Someone has apparently made some edits to the mms.apk to get it to work with MetroPCS. You'd probably have the best luck posting which edits were made to the mms.apk. You could try taking a look at the base mms.apk and then looking at the edited mms.apk to see what was changed.
I assume it would work with other roms as long as they are based on the same source (i.e. JB). You can always try it and if it doesn't work then go about getting a newer modified mms.apk file for the version of android you are flashing.

I have the same phone in UK and I have the stock ROM from the seller to hand, managed to root it too but need the following thing fixed.
1. Can't connect to UK networks, it has receptions but can't seems to register
2. Facebook app installed but no where to be found, once sync contact I can open facebook via the link in contacts......
3. Space for app installation is only 100mb
4. No matter what I change in setting the phone think I am in China, the pre installed browser only connect to China website........Apps which on my note 2 won't let me connect to contents in China but the clone S4 can!
If anyone interested in modding the ROM then get in touch, I will have a play with it but I am no expert. I rooted the phone and mess with some settings, flashed with the stock ROM and everything back to normal so the stock rom works.......except no more samsung boot logo.

I tried to use modem.img included with your ROM , the Sim was detected but not the network .
Try my own modem.img ,maybe it will work on your phone .
notice : it's only GPRS version :crying:
Have a good day !

I managed to solve the on network problem, at first any sim go into the phone and it will show connection but you won't be able to dial out.
*#*#889988#*#* and you will be in the secret menu, go to GPRS and change the IMEI sim 1 to something else, reboot and it will pick up signal. Do not ask me what IMEI number to use and it is unique to the phone!
now I have a working phone but a few thing still need fixing
1. No facebook, can install but can't find a way to start it !!!!
2. The amount of space for software is too small, around 100mb. The manufacturer faked the storage space, the listed space does not match physical space. I am hoping someone may be able to change the vold.fstab so we can use the SD card instead of the internal space.
3. The browser only works with chinese sites??
I need this rom MT6575 id A3LGTI9500, is it possible you lend to me download to my phone? thanks

You can use whats app web on second phone
You won't find much help with that here as changing the Mac address is illegal in many countries and as such all talks are banned here.

I can’t find the text files quoted in the second and third method of the guide
dont change your mac-address its a bad idea.
with some research i may have found a way to actually have whatsapp on two devices(dont have 2 devices so cant test it)
Heres the deal:
Install xposed framework on your device, if youre willing to change your macaddress you should be able to do this as well.
after that get Xprivacy working.
make a full backup with titaniumbackup from whatsapp and tranfers/install it on your second device.
get your IMEI and MAC from your first device (where whatsapp is working)
open up xprivacy and spoof the IMEI and MAC that you got from the step above.
now open up whatsapp for the first time, it shoudnt ask to reactivate or anything.
if it doesnt work try spoofing other stuff, im typing this without any tests but if it worked heres my paypal: paypal.me/Ruthger.
good luck hit me up if you need help
(if anything goes wrong im not to blame, be sure to have stock firmware at hand if the xposed framework bootloops your device!)

Long story short, I have a G950U that someone updated to bootloader 5. Would you believe that i've been using this Combination Rom for a week now because i have no choice, its' the only V5 firmware i can find.. i was messing with the phone and needed to Odin, but had no files. I never want to see a combination rom again, lol. What i did was install Chrome with adb and went from there.. Chrome is the only Google app that works that i've found. No Play Store, no mail, no Gboard. Some will work at first but will very quickly get laggy and unresponsive, it's great ? If you enjoy frustration. Trying to text with the included keyboard will be one of the most frustrating things anyone has ever done.........ever, lol. Nova launcher works with it, I'm guessing most launchers do work.
So I to go to other app stores. i've spent hours looking but can only find the S8+ V5.
Combination Rom Challenge: How long can you use it as a daily driver before you throw your phone off a bridge? lol.
This S8 has no service so it's not really a daily driver for me and i could't try the phone. Talkatone works over WiFi though, lol.
Download Chrome apk on a pc. Open adb and type "adb install" then drag and drop the apk into the window, lol. Thats the extent of my adb skills

This is why proper research and planning is required BEFORE any form of flashing is to take place on an s8 or s8+. It's so when you end up in this mess, you know how to get out of this mess. As of right now, you are sol until a v5 odin firmware is released.
ps. A factory reset might at least let you use the phone as intended.

I do know this. This was not my first time using Odin, or even my first G950U. Seeing the phone was already on Bootloader 5 and not rootable I had the bright idea of putting a password on it to see what I could do with it, I was just bored really The phone has no service and has not been turned on in a month or more. So it would not really be missed. The problem in the first place is a badly cracked screen so it's basically worthless to anyone with no interest in this stuff. I guess mission accomplished though, lol. Technically I got past frp and the lock screen.
