Like this phone what is the chance of root for this phone?
Sent from my F3213 using xda premium
I have heard the lte with t-mobile doesn't work well I would like to know if this is true??
Thanks.

You have to remember that T-Mobile uses 2, 4, and 12, and a two or more new ones, but dont need to worry about those right now. Anyway, it really depends on the area where you're in and the towers. As far as root is concerned, I've yet to see a MTK CPU Devices that couldn't be rooted (of course as long as no special software is in place to block rooting.)
I have checked doesn't seem to have anything blocking but trying to figure out how to unlock bootloader is on account that their is no info on and you will likely need twrp for flash supersu to root.
I don't think their are any rooting apps that would root it.

Agreed, I keep liking this phone more and more however I just wish the camera was a lot better.
Its a really nice budget phone. Im looking at i because I want to reduce size. I currently use the Mediapad M2 8 Model: M2-802L. Its for the US, 4G LTE, but the screen is 8 inches. It wouldnt be so bad if all of a sudden i seem to became the target of everyone trying to run into me and not the thing out of my hand.
What's the difference between this and the Doogee Y6 Max? Same phone?

Thanks for the heads up, it would seem as though they are very a like. The only differences I see at this time is that iRulu is running Android 7 and the Doogee is running Android 6. Also the iRulu works on several cell carriers in the US where Doogee works with none. Still I would love to see a side by side comparison. Ill have to see if I can find someone that has both.
Thanks to Jorge Cortes who took the time to do the Camera test for me on this phone.

I am on T mobile and all I did was swap my Sim and I was good to go. I have heard of others having issues though.
I will add there are some bugs. My phone has no live wallpaper picker, like the actual software is missing. And my word suggestions get hidden behind the keyboard which is ANNOYING. No good response from irulu yet. They ignore me on the website chat. Finally got a Facebook response, we'll see where it goes.
For your reference I flashed the irulu firmware on the Doogee y6 max. Worked fine all the peripherals (camera, dialer,etc etc) worked. The only con was the camera... Very bed quality shot. Therefore I reflashed the stock Doogee firmware on it. Definitely they are same phone.

Bought 2 from Newegg @ $149 each. T-Mobile great, better than old T-Mobile Note 4. WIFI calling not so great. Camera not good at all, may have protective cover over lense i can't get off ? Hangouts & Gmail hang. Battery, would like to see an accurate measurement to confirm advertised capacity. Much better after utilizing Greenify.
Biggest thing for me is the 1mm black border around outside that does not go away in any app. Search for this youtube review (I can't submit links as a newbie) "GeoKing G3 MAX - I like this Phablet!" Right at the start you notice the border. Differs from screen shots on this thread and at IRulu site. It's only 2mm off 6.5" advertised screen size. Just distracts me a little.
Sure Doogee Y6 will get more XDA attention, they seem practically the same hardware. Wonder if a Doogee future rom would support IRulu bands. I could try flashing current Doogee rom on Irulu but I have the ability to brick things. If the Uhans Max 2 supported T-Mobile bands I think it would be better for cheaper.
For price and utility a keeper.

For your reference: I did the opposite: flashed Irulu firmware on my Doogee Y6 Max and everithing was fine. I came back to Doogee firmware since their app camera is better than Irulu' s one.
This is for your reference.

Well the CPU has to support the band and then changed in NVM (in theory as this is how it happpens with Qualcomm CPU and use QPST software). I don't believe there is anything available for MTK CPU as this would open up the market completely!! However it would be awesome to change bands
Has any body rooted this device yet??
I also would like to root this device.
Word directly from irulu itself, they do no update any of their devices and it will always be android 7.0.
There is absolutely no tech support with the company either. Best I got was a warehouse worker that tried his best to help but ultimately was unsuccessful.
As far as rooting, I tried Rooting, it was blocked and doesn't give the option to install it anyways . I changed the security setting in developer options for OEM unlocking and still no luck. As far as I know there is no recovery for this model either.

Comparison of g36 max and y6 max:
"devicespecifications . com/en/comparison/b489eaba1"
Slightly different phones, mostly the same. Left side is irulu g36
Spaces around the dot before com because I can't post links.
I think the easiest way to root this phone is to see if either have someone from here or else where see if they can compile a custom recovery and then install the supersu zip file.

Can you do me a favor, if possible, can you port the Doogee Y6 Max over Camera app to the irulu and see if that makes ANY difference at all? Thanks
Once a recovery is established, we should be able to establish root. Then possibly porting the Dooge Y6 Max Camera app and libs over

Asus website lists the zoom's aperture at f/2.7 - f/4.8 for variable aperture. I wonder what the sensor size is?
No hdmi,or ir deal breaker in my book.. The specs are off the chart why slack on the essentials..
very interesting from ASUS, loving both zenphone2 and the zoom(more towards the zoom for the juicy cam it got)...
screen looks good enough
speakers well... look traditional which is very boring.. expecting tiny low sound from them
cpu is new and thats fresh.. hope its not a battery hog when pushed hard enough
i have never dealt with the company in any way...
any users out there wanna give a few pointers as to how they operate in regards to their smartphones and firmware?
coming from a dead lg g2, currently on a sony Z3 and hating it to the fullest (except for its 3000mAh batt and SOT)
plans were to wait for the lg g4 but this is intriguing.. price is right, need to test 1 before confirming anything but the launch is a bit late for the competition

well TBH... its working good and nothing bad really with the factory rom.
some signal issues where its having a hard time staying on 4g-LTE compared to LG-g2 and galaxy s5.. even on 3g it would drop to 2g when those 2 would have a strong 3g connection
connection speed is good when it feels like it but feels like its being throttled when you have a few apps using the internet at the same time.. for example i have 2 bbm apps running at the same time, whatsapp, instagram, snapchat...
instagram wouldnt load as fast as it should be and same goes for snapchat... it just feels slower compared to the other two phones i mentioned..
loud speaker on calls only uses the 1 of the 2 speakers, which makes it completly useless, but theres a mod to fix that without boosting the max volume value
i always had better luck with cm-aosp but things are moving painfully slow in the development section, cm12 is in nightly stages with an 80% complete build with a few bugs still not ironed out so that ruins it for being a daily driver.
managed to root the phone without unlocking the bootloader which is great but feel like im missing on a lot working with the factory rom
depending on how cool the phone is, 4k video is time limited due to over heating of the phone. yes you do get a message about that from the factory rom when u switch on 4k video camera . so if u were using the phone prior to taking that video time is slashed to 3-5 mins before it stops..
videos taken on 4k or 1080/60 fps sometimes look like slow motion videos not running as fluid as they are supposed to...
never had a phone with so many things id comment about or couldnt help fix with the community but i guess theres a first time for everything...
anyways this has been my first sony mobile and being the latest android phone on the market, it only made sense to drop my broken lg g2 for it but i guess i was wrong
guess i could of been happier with the lg g3 but might as well keep the sony till either the lg g4 comes out or try those new Asus
well, intel procesor hard to install custom rom/custom kernel, am i right?
sorry my english bad

Very nice phone zenfone zoom
It's a very nice phone with good camera. I really want to have this one. But i'm still saving money to buy this.
Folks, any news when Zoom will be released? As i could not find any hint on that. Besides, i also was able to find info that Zoom might get Z3590 CPU instead of more slow Z3580. But in any case, that's only unofficial info.
Got my Zenfone Zoom (Z3580 model 64GB) for a few days now. So far pretty nice phone, fast and good UI. Only downside is the battery going fast. Have to find out what is causing that. Not lasting a whole day so far.
Got mine too - First Impressions up plus camera samples. Part 2 live tomorrow with camera shootout with iPhone 6S Plus
My post below also lists the correct specs. Some errors on first post. Any questions , just ask away

Which errors?
You have the Z3590 model, there's 2 models in which the CPU varies. Z3580 & Z3590.
Also there are 3 different localized versions: WW (worldwide), CN (China) & TW (Taiwan).
Mine didn't come with a headset tho. (WW Z5380 4GB / 64GB)

There's a dedicated record button, but they haven't shown any video recording specs. What gives??

Fatastic. Finally an blow-$200 phone with front Touch ID. I'm waiting for today's "snap-up" event as they call it. But when will it be delivered?
Very beautiful phone, I purchased Ulefone Be Touch 2 in August 5, I received my phone after 5 days.
There is a flash sale at 17:00 on http://goo.gl/sgucAi . The phone will be in stock on 2015-07-01
I like the front Touch ID

Its an awesome looking phone I might be getting one but I will have to see..If I get one I will do a review.
There's a few things I really like about this phone
1.touch ID
3GB ram
3.Android 5 lollipop
There's also a flash sale at Geekbuying and other stores but you have to be quick & LUCKY to get it at the flash sale price.
Iv got the Ulefone be pure at the moment & the camera on that phone is spot on but the phone lacks lollipop rom & bigger storage I took this photo with my Ulefone be pure
I was trying thay snap up crap for 2 days now and while I was being pretty fast I didn't have luck.
Did anyone else try?
Any luck?
Any tips?
I saw on their facebook that they'll make custom ROM for the Be Touch 2. Many people vote for CM and Miui, while i myself like CM.

Yeah I saw it. Just voted for CM as well.
The flash deals never work for me, I just accept it and bought one for 220..
on 1949deal it's the cheapest. It comes without 'free gifts' (screen protector and some sillicon sleeve-cover) which I don't want anyway. I can use that 10 bucks to buy a proper flip-cover
The Be Touch 2 has the same measurements / size as the Be Touch 1 so you can just buy those and they will fit.
I am really looking forward to this device! The fact Ulefone is active on their Facebook and tries to get some custom ROM's for their device really helps with the idea of long time support (although I have really no idea).
Flash sale is real. Just managed to get one: D
Some places on aliexpress do 30 off flash sale as well as 50.
Just so you know.
Good luck!
Okay I got this info directly from Ulefone
Ulefone plans to make custom third-party ROMs for its newest flagship Ulefone Be Touch 2.
Ulefone, first of all, is going to make one custom ROM based on the UI desired by most of its customers before start the second one. In a survey on the company’s Facebook Page, most fans voted for MIUI and Cyanogen Mod - among others like EMUI and Flyme.
“People want that it provide different interaction experiences and variable themes, and in the same time, they want it to be light for best performance"
"Ulefone now take both factors into consideration and make something people feel inspiring and good to use simultaneously" said Ulefone CEO Jason Liu.
These days, Ulefone received feedbacks involving custom ROM from many users, most of whom suggested CM.

It's 4G and 2G, you don't need to swap the sim.

Full Review
The F3 looks a lot like the Galaxy S6, but seems different enough to not be called a clone. Specifications of the phone include a 5-inch HD display, the new MediaTek MT6753 octa-core processor, 2GB of RAM and a 2200mAh battery. Cameras, or at least the 13 mega-pixel main camera on the rear, will be a Samsung unit — a far cry from the usual IMX214 that you get to see.
Pricing is set at US$149, which although isn’t crazy impressive, does sound good for a phone with a decent set of specs and more importantly, good build quality, which we hope will be the case with the Doogee F3. Surprisingly, there’s no mention of a fingerprint scanner which seems to have become stable for Chinese phones. (Source: http://www.gizchina.com/2015/06/26/doogee-f3-launch-specs)
Highlights
- 5.0 inch HD IPS OGS 2.5 d Corning Gorilla glass screen
- MTK6753 64 bit octa core
- 2 GB RAM + 16 GB ROM
- 13MP 8MP main camera + front camera

Hi there,
I hear some complaints about Doogee F3 Pro seems to classify quite a lot of apps as incompatible with this device. Does the normal F3 also having these issues?

Not a lot, but some I guess, for example the Google Plus app. That also don't work on the F3.

Ok, any idea how to solve that? Some people are talking about flashing
GAPPS. But for that you need to have root I suppose.
is there anyone who rooted this phone? (and how, with which app?)
There are 2 variants stated by google.
One using SuperSU, the other srsRoot or something like that.
I'm sorry i can't post links since i'm a newbie.
I also have issues with the camera apps.
Will try testing it and see what logcat has to say on the issue.
I had a chinese recovery mode, so I can't install SuperSU from zip
SuperSU installed form Google Play has "no SU binary installed... you need to manually re-root"
srsroot isn't have connection with ADB device
aplications like KingRoot says that there is a problem with root and break
I don't know how I should to do...
which store you recommend to buy this phone, I much prefer the doogee F3 pro.

Depends on where you're from.
I'm from the EU, so i picked EU-direct DealExtreem. However, if you prefer that the phone has a longer warranty time than 6 months, like DX offers, <- okay i was wrong here. Just spoke with the CS and they told me it ha 1 year of warranty.
then i'd recommend you go here and pick a store you find good.
I see you get 12 months of warranty at DealsMachine.com, banggood.com, pandawill and Gearbest. I believe most of these stores are good, if you're willing to get shipped from china, i think banggood also has overseas warehouses.

Thanks for this info. I have noticed that a recent OTA update will resolve these issues. Unfortunately I cancelled my order already because of continuous postponement of shipment. Now I ordered an Umi Emax Mini. Maybe I will try the Doogee F3 Pro in the near future.
I am an owner of a doogee f3 pro. It was true that the phone classified quite a lot of apps as incompatible, but this problem was completely solved with the recent (17/11/2015) OTA update. Benefits of the phone: OTA updates anailable. Very fast, very nice full hd display and also very good camera and video. Beautiful phone with metal frame and glass back. The gsm network signal is also very good. In fact, its the best i have ever seen!! I could even made phone calls in some places where with other phones i would only get "emergency calls only." Now, the not so good things: Battery is not impressive at all. I think it was needed a bigger battery for an octa core phone. You can make out a whole day with medium use only (ex only phone calls and limited use of internet and games). GPS locks quickly on 19, even on 20 satellites (GPS+GLONASS) with very good signal and gps accuracy of 2, sometimes even 1 meter! The gps performance on an android device can be measured easily and with great accuracy using gps tools from google play store. This is the best gps performance i have ever seen on a smartphone!!! an. Wifi signal is, however, lower than other android phones. Tested with plenty of 2.4 ghz wifi routers. If you are near the router, no problem. But if you are, for example, in a place where with other phones you are connected with only one or two wifi signal bars, with this phone you will have lost signal completely. Back speaker volume is loud enough, but sound quality could have been better. Front speaker is fine. And a last thing that it does not have a magnetic field sensor. If you are not using any apps that need a compass (ex google sky), then not a problem at all. Otherwise, you cannot use this kind of apps. In conclusion, its a great phone with only limitations battery life and the lo wifi signal. Could lo wifi signal be fixed with an OTA update? Lets see if doogee will take some action.
any solutions for the low wifi power?

No solution so far. I cannot know if it is a hardware or software issue. I send message to doogee official and they told me that they will solve it with a software update. Lets see if its indeed a software issue and if they can solve it with an OTA update. Except this small issue, it seems to be a very good phone. I am generally very satisfied.

Hello all. I bought in pre-sale this mobile in 2nd november with the end of pre-sale in 20th november and I received it in 19th dicember in Italy.
I am using it since a day!
First: battery was totally 0%
I waited for first charge (about 1 hour and 15 minutes...very fast!)
All first day I used it in stressing condition: wifi on, update of many applications, download new OTA update, checked youtube movies, audio test, Picture tests, whatsapp, facebook, ans so on.
At the end of the first day the battery indication is 82%!
Now it is 75% with 1 hour and 15 minutes of maps navigator used to come to work in 4G connection!
First impression is really strong!
My only 3 disappionted :
- use 2 sim or 1 sim and 1 microsd .... I wanted a mobile with 2 sim + microsd and with this mobile is NOT possible.
- battery is not removable, if you will need to change you ask to Oukitel support.
- home, menu and back keys have not back illumination.
I had a Leagoo Lead 1 and I must say that display resolution is the same (on teh paper!) but in this mobile it seems really better : brightness, resolution, quality!
Audio is good and cameras work really in great way!
4G is spectacular! I changed mobile just to have it.
I must say that pictures of the Oukitel k6000 pro that you posted should be a new model : K10000!
On Oukitel site it is already present but I don't like the design, I prefer K6000.
Now I want to root it , do you know how I can do?
Oukitel is developing Cyanogen to use in k6000. I just installed it in my k6000. But its not fully working maybe 95% done. If you need a 100% fully working rom you should go with the stock rom for now. Maybe in few days cm12 will be available at 100% for this k6000
ROM to prepare for this device. I hope you like

Is the phone still good after two months?
How about the vibration intensity when you're in a crowded place?
How about loudspeakers when you need to make a call only with the use of loudspeakers?
do you have a LED indication light for incoming sms, missed calls, emails, facebook msg, etc?
I'm planning in buying one.
I'm very dissatisfied with my elephone p8000.
I am very very satisfied!
I made root and I changed audio parameters because audio was too low but now the it is really loud, in all conditions (ring, song, bt ecc...)
I recharge its every 4 days and so I can forget to have every day the supply cable with me and recharging is just 1 hour long! Really fast!
The only sad thing is that I have not found a plastic or silicon cover to protect its, but for the moment I am really careful where I put it on table or other places to don't create scretch or risk of falls.
Display is really sensitive and with good image (great dimmer gap!). Camera ok, but slow to capture (leagoo Lead1 was really faster), so I installed Fast burst camera lite and now it is ok for fast needs.
The vibration it is the same of leagoo1 and for the moment I have not used it in really crowed situations, but I think that it is ok for everybody.
No led indication (this is a pity!)
Looking on different sites I found it to 100 euro from spain ...I think that it is a good and cheap price with fast shipping for europe. I paid 100 euro too but I waited presale period and shipping time (about 40 days).
If you find for that price is a good solution but if you spend more , maybe there are other models with more things of its (greater resolution, more functions, more RAM ecc... )

Ordered mine last week from Doogee official store Aliexpress, the phone is selling like hot cake ? right now. I hope it lives up to the bidding.
I just needed a cheap phone that can carry a power user one full day with out charging or with quick charge option and this one fit in.
Will do an unboxing video and possibly upload the stock Rom backup (from SP flash tool)

Dual SIM with MicroSD slot, but you can't use two SIMs and a MicroSD in the same time. 1x SIM Card + MicroSD or 2x SIM Cards.
My first time buying a Doogee phone and was impressed at the battery capacity. Waiting for the phone to arrive now and hope that it lives up to its hype. I hope there will be some developments on XDA regarding flashing custom ROMs especially with Android O coming along. I do not know what is Doogee's policy on software updates but I have little hope about this phone receiving an Android O update in the future. What do the experienced Doogee buyers think?
Will there be any developement in xda for this phone ?I want to buy this phone but i always try to buy those phone which has a good response in xda developement.
Is the phone worth buying or is it crap?
Just received my BL5000 through mail today. The phone looks beautiful. I got the black variant as I like a full black front. Its running Android 7.0 and I received a software update from Doogee immediately upon activation. Hope this is a good sign that updates will keep up.
The UI is snappy with almost stock android experience with the Doogee UI launcher. Nothing really useful in my opinion and will swap it to Nova Launcher Prime later. Been playing a bit with the camera. With indoor shots, the camera's Blur Mode looks disappointing as the edges are not differentiated properly from the background. But it's a cheap phone so did'nt really expect much from the camera. As I use it further the next few days,will share what I think.
Hope that XDA can have a specific forum just for Doogee BL 5000 cause I feel that it has some potential.
I just got mine yesterday and I'm switching from an S7. So far I'm impressed with everything. $180 is hella cheap.
Review coming soon.
Only thing I need is root.

The camera is it's weakest aspect. The blur mode is really useless. The secondary camera is not even used for taking a picture. U can try to block the bottom camera and it makes no difference except during blur mode where it will tell you not to cover it. S7 camera has one of the best among all
Other than that, it's a good phone. I installed nova launcher to replace the Doogee launcher.
Been posting lots of stuff in the official Doogee forums and hardly any official replies. This phone company has the worst customer service I have encountered. Do not buy phones from this company if u expect any customer support at all.
Doogee BL5000 Camera Review
I've spent about a week with the BL5000 and I actually rather like it The screen is the thickest I've ever seen and it gives the whole phone a strange bubble effect. Most phone mention that they're 2.5D but the BL5000 definitely is! It has an aquarium-like quality... in a good way XD
The screen it super bright and it works fine in direct sunlight. The speakers are better than I was expecting. No notification LED, which will be a big no for some.
It's a beast 208 grams, but you're getting decent battery life. Has anyone else had problems getting AccuBattery to work?
I've put up a full Flickr album of photos if anyone is interesting in seeing how the Dual Cameras perform.

Thank you for the review. What do you think about the dual camera setup? The blur mode I think is very disappointing. The secondary camera is not even used to take a photo.
And can you clarify the size of the battery with an app? People were saying that the battery size was actually 4500mAh and not 5050mAh as advertised by Doogee.
