[Q] Question about kernel Update in Android Phone STAR A9000

---

Hello friends, excuse me if my question is very basic , but recently, I'm entering the world android, a month ago I bought my android phone. My phone is probably dualsim Chinese, the model name is STAR A9000 Dual Sim (in the last part I attached a photo and their characteristics), this phone has 2.2.1 Froyo Android, the phone is very good but has many limitations when installing applications, for example when trying to install the application SetCPU, I can not run the application because the kernel does not support my phone.

My question is, if this cell STAR A9000 can update your kernel or rom, and as I could find these updates for my model phone. Because the Internet is not much information on the kernel of the Chinese android cellphone

I have attached information on my cell phone
Thank you very much for your help. Sorry but my English is not very good.

Hello ! I have a STAR A5000 with the same cpu . You need to root your phone with Z4root but it won't help because i can't overclock cpu with any app. We need to wait for a solution ;(

Hello I have A5000 too , I did a test with AnTutu Benchmark and I saw that the CPU speed is just 207.66 MHz . What is the truth about ΜΤΚ 6516 ?

Hello:

So is it worth to buy the Star A9000 for Android Development ?

Thanks for your time,

I would like to know this too, got the same phone and theres no custom ROMS for it out on the internet. And its very slow, would be nice to have someone that will give us a ROM thats faster than this stock 2.2.1

Infinite Boot Loop

---

Hey everyone,

I got an A9000 phone a month ago, and since then, I slowly emerged into the Android community. Right now I have a problem:

I get the infinite boot loop after modifying services.jar and framework-res.apk. Another problem I have is that i cannot select anything in the system restore settings. Any cure for this?

Thanks in advance.
