[hamdta]

Hi

This is for inform all that recently i buy on Aliexpress, Store: Century Tech nº1186519, from Spain, this model:link suppressed (if interested i send by e-mail,because i can not post the links )

When i verify the CPU and Speed i found one CPU MediaTEK 6735 at 1.09Ghz even a MTK 6737 at 1.3Ghz as the specifications show! The seller Do NOT accept my complains, said is not true,this is the board used on Doogee X5 Pro less expensive,NOT used on X5MaxPRO!

People say it changes the CPU clock to 1.3 GHz:

Hi
Finally i try the firmware from Doogee site version 08/10/2016,the speed increase to 1248Mhz NO more! The CPU ID continue MTK 6735 even MTK6737! (view with MTK engineering codes).
The phone work Ok, with the exception of Hoptspot feature, refuse the connections! Maybe a problem on the software Android 6.0...

From Doogee Support NO answer till today, also form the Aliexpress Shop Seller. I am also LOST my possible refund, BECAUSE the Aliexpress Site not finished (never finished,photos GO well) my UPLOAD prof video, and my external link on YOUTUBE was ignored!... I was scammed by the seller with the help of Aliexpress support Team. The case was close automaticle .

On Aliexprese site and till today i buy 4 Doogee X5 ,1 Doogee X5Max (Egrow Group, 100%OK), and 1 Doogee X5Max Pro.(Century Tech,Bad support)

Thanks to the XDA People for the help

I recently bought 3 from dealextreme also. If you check the phone with other CPU identifying apps, it shows all good. CPU Z is great, but it is well known for getting chip information incorrect in phones and PCs alike. Just google it.
Great for a cheap phone!! Just be aware that the default ROM does have malware in it which should be removed IMMEDIATELY!!
Thanks

Thanks for the information,even the problem appear with CPUZ (wrong CPU information), the MTK codes show also the same CPU id = MTK6735 even MTK 6737!... The Speed with Antutu or Zdevices or CPU-Z is also is 1.09Ghz even 1.3Ghz!?

The phone was good but the information of hardware show something is not correct. The support from Doogee ANSWER to emails was Zero!!

About the ROM with Malware, i don’t know nothing about... ( the phone is on my Daughter hands), only NO permit (YET) access to Hotspot,but seems a usual problem on Android 6, resolved ( on other Android 6) phone that i have with this solution :http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/how-enable-tethering-android-6-0-marshmallow-update-1524792

Best regards and Merry Christmas
