Hi,

Just wanted to know how to load custom fonts to the I theam app.

Also adb device not recognized in PC.

Make sure USB debugging is turned on while you connect to ADB and you should have system wide Fastboot/ADB Drivers installed along with the Vivo Drivers for it to work. You should get an Allow USB Debugging Prompt along with your computers RSA Key Fingerprint so please allow and tick on always allow from this computer as long as you are not on a public computer.

For fonts you can download more from the available list, i use the default one only for now. There is a long procedure to install a custom font which i will cover later when i get time. You can do some research on the same if needed.

is vivo v15 pro and vivo1609 the same unit? how do i root thee?

 

[Funk Wizard]

Simple question, only thread starter can reply b coz u had '11 pro b4.
So does it worth to update from 11pro to 15pro with against its price?main feature camera nd 4k battery?
And the difference between 15 and 15 pro?

Well i got 65% buyback so i upgraded. The upgrade is not incremental but not sure if the V11 Pro will receive Pie update.
If you get a good buyback go for it and stay on the latest or you can stick for another 6 months and go for the next device :good:

I saw in the specs on gsmarena that the phone has NFC but it is Market Dependent. What does that mean? Mine is from India and it does not have it.

Indian unit does not have NFC and i am not sure if Chinese/Malaysian version would have it so you would have to research a bit on that.

Simple question, is there possible in the future to be rooted with this phone ? I'm so excited with this beautiful phone.

Thanks

I am afraid there is no possibility to root this device and even if you are able to root, Vivo does not release a tree or source for third party development so i would say stay stock and enjoy the updates.

is vivo v15 pro and vivo1609 the same unit? how do i root thee?

No root option available for now.

 

[ilhaminc22]

I am afraid there is no possibility to root this device and even if you are able to root, Vivo does not release a tree or source for third party development so i would say stay stock and enjoy the updates.

Well, this is so sad. I always wonder how better this device with root access. I hope someone with a high intelegent can open this phone. And making this device possible to be rooted

I don't know what you mean by

high intelegent can open this phone

Vivo is a closed source company, even if you are able to root the device, there is no source so no development. Stay stock and stay locked, the moment you unlock the bootloader there will be lot of broken functionalities with no way to repair it than re-lock and full wipe

 

[spectra9]

Does kingoroot or similar working with this device?
