[REQUEST] custom ROM for Hisense hs-u980 ? (helpfull links included)

sgmarouf · Jul 23, 2014

EDIT: For those of you who want the ROM, I've uploaded it in the thread on this link: http://xdaforums.com/android/development/rom-hisense-hs-u980-t3147968

hi every one
I recently got an android, it seems to be a china-android
its called Hisense, hs-u980
the detailed specs are in these links:
---------------
http://www.hisense.es/es/electronica/moviles/item/124-u980.html

http://www.dspecs.com/sp/735/Hisense-U980-Features-and-Specifications.html
---------------
the OS is old and boring 4.2.1 , I searched for a custom ROM but no luck

BUT I found THIS site, and it seems to have ROMs for it:
-----------
http://tieba.baidu.com/f?kw=海信u980&mo_device=1&pn=0&

http://tieba.baidu.com/p/3039480252?lp=5028&mo_device=1&pn=0&

http://tieba.baidu.com/p/3079914712?pn=0&
-------

but its Chinese so I don't understand a thing, even with Google translate, because I have little - but hopefully enough- experience with custom roming and rooting, and the translator messes with the words

so pleeeeease anyone help me

: D

after getting used to it and studying some roms and development stuff
i found that its not that boring afterall
actually it looks like its based on kitkat theme
but could there be Roms for it
or at least roms that work on it but for a similar device

cuz actually i think its based on some other official android phone but i dont know which one

any help would be appreciated, THX

Got mine last week. It's actually pretty nice for Android 4.2.1, hoping Hisense will upgrade to 4.4

Sorta at times yes. I installed camera JB+. Pictures are a bit better, but I mainly got it for the option to record video with flash. Camera360pro now that will always give you crisp pictures, even on my Huawei Y300, I was amazed.

Hi not sure if this is too late for you:

I have tried all these Chinese developed custom roms and they all work nicely on my Hisense U980.

It is a nice phone but too bad not many roms support.

There are some other roms like ColorOS and other versions of MIUI which I have not tried. But I can share the links if you are interested. Contact me if you are interested.

Thanks a lot for this. how do you install the rom? Upgrade via SD, Root? And where?

hi

below are instructions from my memory and links from untested roms. follow at your own risk. cheers

Vaguely, the steps are:
1) Rooting: I used Baidu 1 click root (chinese) . Some guy used Framaroot and works on u980:
hxxp://xdaforums.com/general/help/how-to-root-chinese-hisense-phones-t2889998
2) After rooting, install Mobile Uncle Tools (below)
3) Use Mobile uncle to install the u980 twrp recovery (CHinese version only below)
4) copy roms to root of sd card
5) Boot into recovery and install downloaded roms from SD card

Some links:
U980 MIUI V5_4.4.3升级版.zip ---- not tested

u980 miui_v5 04.5.2.zip ---- not tested

Hi!!
Thanks for all the info but Im having some hard time finding the drivers to detect the phone on my PC.
The thing is that I read that to make a backup, I need first to use "MTK Droid Root & Tools" which would also allow me to root my phone. But that software doesn't detects my phone at all.
I connected my phone as CD drive, then it shows the drivers for it, installed but nothing changes. Device manager detects my phone.
Could you please help me a little on this? I would like to backup the whole ROM and phone before doing any risky changes and also want to backup the IMEI just in case.

Thanks in advance!

sgmarouf · Nov 26, 2014

Well
Do like i did
Install FRAMAROOT from here

xdaforums.com/apps/framaroot/root-framaroot-one-click-apk-to-root-t2130276

And try an exploit and it will work

As for the Recovery Mode

I think The link in a previous reply - mobile uncle - will only install a Chineese recovery mode

kitsune0 · Nov 26, 2014

Would that work for doing backups? I am really more interested in being able to backup my phone than anything else.
Also, my main objetive is to repartition the phone since it comes with 2GB for apps and 6GB as storage. I would like to use that other memory to be able to install more apps since I have SD card and these 6GB are there laughing of not being used at all lol. It's verya nnoying to have so much memory and not being able to use :/

Hisense u988

Hi guys i couldn't resist the u980 pure so i bought one 5 days ago.
I see Hisense have released the u988 infinity H3.
I would have taken that one but that CPU....
I have a question and bear with my ignorance.
This model has an inferior snapdragon 200 1.2GHZ cpu but runs KIT KAT.
Other then that, its the same phone.
Would it be possible to download the stock rom for the U988 and flash it with the U980?
Please assist as this is my intention and i have already rooted via framaroot.

J73 · Mar 5, 2015
