Hello, my name is Joseph Petri and I'm also having the same problem, I'm trying to solve but I can't, GPS also presents problems, only works with a wifi network, alone finds no satellite. You could solve your problem? If yes, can you help me? thank you

Hello,
I've the same problem with GPS.
He finds very quickly the sattelites (thanks to fasterfix), but when I'm using a GPS app. (sygic for example) for navigation, the position is not exact. Most of time I'm on the road close to my real position. Not very simple to go back at home :confused:
Is someone found a good navigation app or tool to fix this issue ?

thank you for your help

No sounds from speakers - solved!

My x18i all of a sudden stopped playing any sound from the speaker. i was using amitkey's V2_2.3.6_e1108_v73_jbl1_signed_Amitkey9 at the time although my model is actually e1109_v73_jy1.
I tried everything i could think of including a wipe and a reflash of the rom, then other roms, and still no sound :(
any suggestions would be most welcome

i finally solved my sound issue, it was a software issue all along yay :D
to solve you need to clear your flash from the factory test zone:
power your X18i (or LT18i im not sure) withe the volume DOWN button at the same time, and select "clear flash"

now im back to amit's rom :)

recovery update

Hello iw4nk

I want to root my X18i so I try to do the recoveryMOD with SP flash tool but the "recoveryMOD for X18i" link on your blog only contains "recovery.img" and "MT6573_Android_scatter_X18.txt"

Should'nt there be more files like "logo.bin" and "system.img" and so on?

Very good guide by the way!

that right..... if you only want upgrade recovery, you no need logo.bin, system.img, etc because logo.bin, syste..img , etc is for upgrade/flash ROM.

Good luck friend

Hi ramgzz,

    New Custom ROM for X18i

    thanks momofab, now i can flash my phone :D. i want share new custom rom for x18i from vness community.

    MrTB v5 ROM
    Link: ww*.mediafire.com/?j1l8vlac9az679e
    Changelog:
    - Android 2.3.6
    - Fix bug completely unable to connect to 3g sim sim contacts remaining. Now you surf the web without worry miss call.
    - Add boot function in the second 3g sim. With this function the 2 slots support 3g sim. You can completely change mount 2 sim 3g and connect with a simple click, no need to remove your sim change. This function is located in Settings -> Wireless and networking -> Mobile networks -> 3g Services -> 3g:
    + The default is sim slot 1 (the outermost slot), you can switch between two arbitrary sim slot.
    + If you select Off, 2 sim will only GSM status. This for anyone not using 3G, or when new users are turned off to help take the pin.
    - Update the latest app, update ad blocking hosts.
    - Fix the catalytic response, more app also dropped in the previous version (which can be related to an app that can not be DC and the system).
    - Do not have much time so the new version is just the frame, not the optimal lot, not beauty. Everything that you will be home next patch or ROM. Make sure if fully optimized, 2.3.4 and 2.3.6 stronger 5 more ^ ^!
    Note:
    - Do you leave out the background to help take the pin. Rom so when finished will have black T lockscreen. You only need to change the lockscreen wallpaper inside bt will return.
    - All other guidelines as the previous version.
    - If there is anything, report immediately to his home.
    - Fix widget sense: At the Root explorer -> system -> app, find the file and delete it fr.clockwidget.lpsense.odex reboot.

    i was tested :D. but some app is still with vnes language :( . sorry if my english is not good :p
