can you access fastboot mode?
do you get adb connection when stuck at bootlogo?
i was stupid.. when i was stuck at the logo and i was trying to access at the TWRP when i was holding the volume up and the power button the phone was restarting and then i was letting free the buttons. So some hours of lost time searching on the internet how to fix a bricked letv x800 i though what will it happen if i press the buttons for longer duration and then i was in TWRP but not recognized to the PC so i installed google usb drivers restarted PC and TA DA! i had access to the internal storage i putted the 9s zip file install via TWRP and everything is good again..

and i got in this process because the phone was muted even with maximum volume i went to TWRP and i forgot i should never delete internal storage :confused: i didnt know that there is a slide button on the left of the device that mutes the phone :p

I have serious problems with my GPS i am afraid. Tried MrRusch 09s,cuoco92 06s and 08s,flymee rom with no luck. GPS test manages to detect satellites but its very dificult to get a stable fix. Seems like signal is too low. Anyone have any suggestions? I start to think its a hårdare fault now.

How you can't access TWRP? Did you press volume up + power button during bootup? That should get you into recovery. But if you wiped your internal storage, you need an image file of the ROM and use adb to install it. Correct me if I am wrong...
Please explain me how to install image file via adb. In the feature i might run in similar situation and i want to know how to fix it..

Do you plan to wipe internal storage? Coz that is how you might get a bricked phone... But the fast rule is if you can get into fastboot or recovery, it's only semi-bricked. Try the search function in this forum and ye shall get your answer on how to adb-push .img files to unbrick your x800. I'm driving now...

It's not MrRusch or cuoco's fault. Letv has yet to fix the weak GPS reception. I have the same problem... We just have to wait for it to be fixed from Letv...

In my case the GPS only worked well with the original 'international' ROM it was supplied with.
This was a terrible 6S ROM that heated the phone and flew thru' battery.

Since then I have used Rushs's 7S, 8S and now 9S. These are great ROMs which never overheat the phone and battery life is excellent.
But GPS only rarely works :(
So I can say that the h/w is OK as it worked fine with the original ROM but never well with RuschRom.

Thanks for the update! This makes me curious just to try the international rom just to see if I can get the gps working. Do you know where i can download this?

Hmm...apologies but unfortunately I do not know where it can be downloaded from :(
The phone came with it pre-loaded. It was like an English language ROM that had the Play Store installed. It was terrible but at least the GPS did indeed work.
RuschRom is superior in every way bar the GPS issue so it's a shame that hasn't as yet been resolved.

You will only loose your time.It's the original 4s rom.Until 6s temperature and battery was seriously bad.

I downloaded stock 08s rom and flashed it, flashed gapps, rooted it and debloated it (most of the chinese apps). The gps is still weak but seems to lock more satellites now. My 99usd Mlais Mx base still rules in this apartment as it get a 10feet accuracy fix within a couple of seconds while inside my house. The Letv struggles for minutes to find a fix.

Took me a while to find out how to change the lockscreen wallpaper. The issue is that the original wallpaper app has been deleted from the firmware only the service been left and thats why the option to change both wallpapers isnt popping up using any ui launcher.
The workaround is: go to the gallery select the pic of your choice go in to view and at the bottom options select "set as wallpaper" and in the options chose "set both".

Unfortunately I dont know how to disable the lockscreen totally maybe with an app or try xposed if it works with this phone at all.

Correct, the Wallpaper app is removed as it is an online repo. Wallpapers can be set through gallery or file explorer as per usual.

Hi which one is the latest version ?
39E is Letv's latest experimental build, and 9S is their latest Stable build.
