Yes, I'm working on an Android 7 Nougat Rom for Takee1.
My username on xda and 4pda was Mich-C, recently I updated my xda username to Mik_el

I just bought a Takee1 to work on it. I'm waiting for the battery.
Are you interested in the rom? You can become a tester if you want.

ivvi K5 - 4+64GB for 70 euro

Another excellent 3D phone with SuperD technology!

ivvi K5 - 4+64GB for ￥549.00 (chinese Yuan) - 70 euro
https://item.jd.com/55734383199.html

It won many awards in China. Production has been discontinued. There are few units left, at a very low price. Better get this one if you want a good device with active 3D hub. In my opinion, ivvy K5 and SuperD D1 are the best replacement phones for EStar Takee 1.
They are bug free!

PhereoRoll3D (images) and NewPipe (videos)

You will be able to download great 3D content with these two apps: PhereoRoll3D (images) and NewPipe (videos).

But first go to the phone Settings, Security, Unknown sources... and allow installation of apps from unknown sources.
It is safe to install PhereoRoll3D and NewPipe. After their installation, turn-off Unknown sources to keep your phone safe..

PhereoRoll3D
Unofficial app to show stereophotographs of Phereo website in 3D with some devices not supported by official app
https://github.com/JackDesBwa/PhereoRoll3D/releases
Go to latest release, scroll to Assets and download PhereoRoll3D.apk.

PhereoRoll3D enables the download of 3D photos and their visualization in the native 3D Gallery of the phone.

NewPipe
A libre lightweight streaming front-end for Android.
https://github.com/TeamNewPipe/NewPipe/releases/
Go to latest release, scroll to Assets and download NewPipe_v0.17.4.apk.

NewPipe enables the download of 3D videos from YouTube at your desired resolution and their visualization in the native 3D VideoPlayer of the phone.

Enjoy happy moments with Takee 1. :)

Remove and replace all stock chinese security apps, even the stock camera app?

@Mik-el The russian developer Sidorovvitalik at 4PDA removed and replaced all stock chinese security apps, even the stock camera app, in his custom ROM of ZTE V5 K3DX-V5 (Snapdragon 617). Will you be able to do the same in EStar Takee 1? That may be the reason for annoying stock camera bugs that @luckasfb could not solve when he pushed his custom ROM to Android 4.4.2.

Most device manufacturers do no want users to instal Google Camera mods... under request by China security forces. For that reason they avoid the full implementation in stock ROMs of API levels (21+) required by specific Android versions. Stock camera apps communicate directly with China security forces.

Can you include a full implementation of Camera 2 API in your custom ROM Android 7.1 Nougat?
Android API 21 introduced this new Camera2 API.
Is the EStar Takee 1 phone stuck to old CameraAPI due to @luckasfb kernel being KitKat 4.4 - 4.4.4 at API level 19?

I can add and remove apps from any stock or custom rom.
(see my rom for galaxy ace and for and for a mediacom tablet)

The camera bug was caused by the camera driver

Each Android release is made through a specific Software Development Kit and its APIs. So, for example, an Android 7 rom can't exist without API (in this case 25)!!
Manufacturers can avoid the implementation of Camera2API, that is a specific API for camera.

Yes, it seems pretty easy.


If anyone is interested about the new Android 7 rom I'm developing for the Takee 1 here's our new thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/mediatek-ported-rom-takee1-community-t3996301
We should start posting in that new organized thread, being a Dev-DB thread it also gets higher visibility.

Dear @io2345 the two latest original firmware versions of EStar Takee 1 that had been uploaded to mega.nz by @pogodancer are no longer available.
My own copies are not accessible because my PC is damaged.
Can you upload to mega.nz the following firmware, please?

Stock firmware of 10 October 2015 (attached ReadMe2.pdf instructions also included in .rar) (no support for 3D and AirTouch)
Takee-1_151010_151026-212141 .rar
with ClockWork Recovery

Tried to upload to Mega, but doesn't work, as the system_mod-Images have a size of 2 GBs and won't upload.
Let me try to split them in two parts.

EDIT: Think I got the November ROM uploaded. Can you try to download:
https://mega.nz/folder/V4gDDIYK#I2upzrF4IpsTjdSXqJXUaw
And here the october ROM: https://mega.nz/folder/xpJ3jCaC#pSj1zaBvjMLmJ-Dd5RenKQ
Won't leave it there too long, maybe a week or two.
Remember, that SYSTEM Image is packed, you'll have to un-7z the file first in order to use it.

    Just got the Takee 1 today and want to share my full unboxing & first impressions about this phone.
    This is a new cheaper version of the last year released Takee 1. This version comes without any earphones and a more discreet packaging. For me it is okay, as the phone and hardware is the same, but the price is so much better.

    This version includes working Google Play Store out of the box! but it was missing Holo Space and 3D Films/Games etc. but I was able to install these things afterwards, so everything is fine! I believe it is called an EU version as the phone didn't include chinese apps and the ROM is pretty stock!

    The original introduction price of this phone was about 6-700 USD last year, but this one here is like more than 5 times cheaper! For that price it is worth it IMO, because the hardware & build quality is very good. Only on the software side it is still stuck with JB and there will likely not be any Lollipop in the near future. But I actually did get one OTA update on the phone from 10 septebmer 2015 so they do still update it.

    Unboxing & First look at the Takee 1 the world’s first 3D holographic smartphone that uses 3D display technology without the need for glasses
    PS. I know I by mistake say that it comes with KK but it is in fact JB.

    Xposed Framework

    Hello friends,

    after playing around with my Takee 1 I am satisfied with this cheap smartphone I bought from GearBest. The allover performance is not the best compared to other octacore devices but nevertheless it can be used comfortable. And the 3D-playback function is amazing. Unfortunately the possibility of changing settings in the 3D-video app are not satisfying.

    After lots of tests and the hint of Skalofrio1293 I was able to install XposedFramework to make the JellyBean device much more comfortable and nicer.

    1. To cut a long story short I collected the firmwares dated 2015-09-10 for each of you. I made a very big download package of 2.3GB including:

    - Stockrom unrooted
    - Stockrom rooted
    - Stockrom prepared for XposedFramework
    - TWRP custom recovery
    - 3D-movies and pictures from stock
    - files for reactiving the 3D-effect for people who have lost it

    You can find everything here: Takee-1_2015-09-10_151026-204849_AiO-pogo

    You can read my attached ReadMe.pdf for further informations.

    2. @ s7yler
    Please add the download link to your post #1. Thanks.

    Lets find a developer to port Android 6 (Marshmellow)

    Lets find a developer to port Android 6 (Marshmellow). Someone with an indisputable track record of sucess and good reputation. Then raise a fund among TAKEE owners to pay the developer. The payment must be on schedule delivery of a fully functional firmware.
    What do you think of this proposal?

    Succeeded to fix GPS problem!

    Read some articles, and thats the way I done it.

    Opened this: app.box.com/s/w57s1v1n3hie7l5lk28i/2/1033932257
    Downloaded file "gps.conf" for my country. Placed it to the /system/etc. (need root to replace existing system file). Run GPS TEST app. Entered to settings, pressed Clear AGPS. Then UPDATE AGPS. Closed GPS TEST app.
    Entered ENGINEER MODE. Then moved to LOCATION section. Entered LOCATION BASED SERVICE. Pressed EPO download button. After 3 minutes entered AGPS tab, pressed LOAD PROFILE. Then entered YGPS section. Made GPS TEST - 5 times with 1 sec interval. Entered SATELLITES tab - red dots (satellites) appeared. Then entered INFORMATION tab. Pressed FULL button, after abou 2 min status changed and information (about date, time, latitude and longitude etc) appeared. The same way with WARM, HOT and COLD buttons. After all pressed AGPS RESTART button. Then entered NMEA LOG tab. Pressed start button. Then entered SATELLITES tab - waited untill red dots became green. Then returned to NMEA LOG tab, pressed stop button - new atlas saved to the phone. Exited ENGINEER MODE. Run NAVITEL app. And voilà - abot 10 satellites are connected!

    I dont know what exactly helped to fix it, but I'm glad I made it work. And I hope that it will help somebody else.

    1. Too optimistic.
    2. The built quality of my device is mediocre only because the hardware buttons (volume rockers and power button) are not very solid. They should fit a bit stronger.
    3. That review is just a repetition of existing reviews. Nothing that we didn't know before. IMHO s7yler's review is much more helpful.
    4. Nevertheless thanks for the time you took.

    Hello to all,

    I guess stas30 was right when saying that the last two firmware updates work. I checked it again (just a few minutes) and I can confirm that 3D, camera and making phone calls is working with the firmwares dated 2015-10-10 and 2015-11-09.

    For this reason and to complete the firmware collection I modified both firmwares with root privileges, some minor changes and deodexed applications to make the xPosed Framework working. Like I said before I only did short tests - it's your job now to check what's working or not. But never forget to do a factory reset after having flashed a new rom !!!

    If you like you can download the modified firmwares here:

    Takee-1_151010_151026-212141_root-mod-deodeXposed

    Takee-1_151109_151114-172130_root-mod-deodeXposed

    [email protected] [email protected]

    p.s.: I personally went back to the firmware dated 2015-09-10 because I think the 3D effect is working best here. Maybe it's just a placebo or the cameras for scanning our eyes are working better. What do you think :confused:

    @ s7ler
    Please add both links to the OP. Thanks.
