Wont happen, its a bait and switch for the X5 Max
This phone will never happen, its a 'Bait and Switch' for the X5 MAX.
On the http://www.doogeemobile.com/doogee-x5-max-pro.html site they send you to pompmall to make your purchase, if you don't read carefully you will purchase the X5 MAX ... Not the X5 MAX PRO.
I will never buy this brand of phone due to this behavior.
Are you kidding me?!

Doogee X5 Max Pro can become the upgraded version of Doogee X5 Max, it uses MTK6737 quad core 64bit CPU instead of MTK6580 Quad core, RAM 2GB ROM 16GB internal storage , more attractive price.
DOOGEE X5 MAX Pro
Well.
Having just lost my phone (Mlais mx base) Which was really nice (though it did have one or two interesting issues!)
I have ordered one of these from Deal extreme.
eud.dx.com/product/doogee-x5-max-pro-android-6-0-4g-phone-w-5-0-hd-2gb-ram-16gb-rom-852436380
Paypal works out at £66.10.
I will report what actually arrives when it gets here (uk) and what it is like.
Obviously root will be the first thing to do.
so i will have some reading to do for the next few days...
Regards
Radioanorak.
I have also ordered it - USD 79.99 shipped to Canada. What would be the best way(s) to root?

Afaics doogeemobile.com seems to be something of a scam or fake site - even the logo does not match the official Doogee logo - and they even don't provide any address there.
I think http://www.doogee.cc/ is the official site - also with an official company address: http://www.doogee.cc/article.php?AId=8

Generally KING R00T is the way to go with Chinese phones, no guarantee on this method, you could damage the phone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/one-click-root-tool-android-2-x-5-0-t3107461
This is the only Marshmallow (6.0+) R00T that I know of.
I just damaged the charging circuit on new phone doing a r00t (5.1), the battery would not charge unless the phone was turned off. I had to reflash the firmware but the manufacturer has not released the ROM as of yet.
It went back to china as a defective phone, PayPal claim.
R00T at your own risk. and if you find a method that works please post it here as well ... TY
FYI ... GearBest extended the pre-sale date to July 10th (http://www.gearbest.com/cell-phones/pp_367844.html), and the 11th presumably will be the 1st shipping date ...... (?)
Your shipping day is today from DH-Gate, did you receive a shipping extension? I keep getting 'Pre Sale' when I put the item in my shopping cart.
camera is 5mp interpolation to 8mp front and back

Ya, I'm here in Edmonton, I have reverted to DHL for all orders over 25 bucks. They charge only $7.50 per package, under 5kg, I try to combine orders, sometime you just have time constraints and a $5 item just has to get shipped express courier, the cost is always absorbed by the customer ......
Anyways, are you sure you didn't get the the x5 Max for that price? And not the x5 MAX PRO @$110 CDN (+/-) ...
I double checked. It is the pro max and it is usd 79.99. The regular max (non pro) is 64.55 usd
There was a $5 off special when I ordered it as the normal price (today) is usd 84.98 for the max pro

Hi guys, i'm new here, though Ive been using advice, contents and softwares from xda developers for the past few years, i joined yesterday. I appreciate and i'm very grateful to you all; developers, testers and simple users(like me) for making this forum this wonderful.
I also bought Doogee X5 max pro and received it a few days ago, so far it has been a wonderful experience using it, it's very responsive and the camera is ok for it's price. The only con i detected so far is the processors speed, while shopping for it, the specs given on-line is 1.3ghz instead it is 1ghz using cpu-z. I hope they fix it with their next update or maybe i was wrong with the expected speed.
However, my major problem now is how to root it. The build id for it is MRA58K, there are 7 types of systemless boot image on the site given by UnableToResetOldProfile, which one do i use. Also there is no twrp image for Doogee x5 max pro on twrp site. If anyone has successfully root theirs, kindly help outline the procedure to root it, thanks
Im waiting for my x5 max pro to arrive. Should be a few more weeks (already at customs here, but they take a long time to process it)
Payed 75USD on the Dx.com deal

Hi, yes it has a notification led (red/green/blue), Battery life is good i think , i can´t tell you the exact time but with heavy usage (power saving-off, hsdpa using , web browsing, etc.) i have 65% battery and 2 hours of screen on (60-70% brightness) , it is quite good
Lte (4g) - test
I have new info for those who want try 4G (LTE) but cannot disconnect from the 3G network , just go to dialer and type this: *#*#4636#*#*
you will be in the testing menu , now go to phone information then scroll down and you will se: set preferred network type and choose LTE only , i can´t try it now because I live in a small town/village and we don’t have 4g coverage only 3G-HSDPA..
Good Luck and tell us the testing result a speedtest would be also nice
Build quality of phone is good? Screen density is ok? Definition of screen is good? Sound of speakers is fine? And any possibily to have kit kat and remove chinese bloatware?

Just read , the build quality is good , it´s plastic but don´t feels cheap it is like the samsung galaxy phones. Screen density? If you mean DPI , originally it´s 480dpi but you can change to 445. The speaker is really great, loud and good sound the build in dolby equalizer give to it an extra kick. ZTE said that there will be the 4.4 update soon , when you have root you can remove it easily.
I think Huawei Ascend P7 is better than this phone.

Xiaomi Redmi 3 uses a 5-inch IPS screen
Appearance seems not to be accepted
Xiaomi Redmi 3 change more significantly in appearance than the previous generation models , from 4.7-inch screen sizes up to 5 inches. Xiaomi Redmi 3 has 139.3*69.6*8.5mm dimension and weigh 143.5g, compared to red mi2 with 134*67.2*9.4mm size and weight of 133g, Redmi 3 screen size not only affects the grip, but also successfully "lose weight", thickness of the fuselage has been noticeably reduced.
Front ID doesn't change much in its style
It's a little regretful that three keys haven't backlight.
Redmi 3 uses a 5-inch IPS screen, using the OGS technology, resolution 1280* 720P, to tell the truth , this screen appears quite satisfactory as a whole, but it supports the Sun screens, luminous screen, eye pattern, etc of course, have brought the much improvement of users' experience. according to the xiaomi popularized version;
5 inch screen size means better gripping.
On the back of the mobile phone, Redmi 3 should be the most controversial, which called "exposure" techniques,Xiaomi said this kind of tech has been applied into apple logo of the back and 'iphone' in iPhone 5, which is characterized by the pattern without stamping, etching of the fault. So do you like this pattern?
A big change in camera position
Speakers are still in the bottom
Redmi 3 is used metal material in the middle of back cover, hand feeling is good to the touch, in order to ensure the signal, on the top and bottom uses plastic material, but seam technology is good, and it does not give the feeling of assassination.
Camera always is designed on the middle back on the previous Redmi series, but this Redmi 3 has been put on the top left of the back with narrow size, and the speaker has not change at the bottom.
Top of the fuselage with an infra-red transmitter
The interface in the bottom is in the middle of the fuselage
There is the other an infra-red transmitter on the top of Redmi 3 in addition to the headphone jack and outside noise-reducing microphone, and the system has also been installed the remote control, this point will not increase costs, but it does allow users to get a lot of benefits. At the bottom is a microUSB interface and microphone , volume key and power key at the right side of the fuselage, because of the sleek fuselages, so is the card slot on the left side of the fuselage.
Card slot design using a compatible microSD card
Redmi 3 is a CNC machine, and only this version, mobile, Unicom, Telecom 2G/3G/4G network are compatible. And Redmi 3 card slot use a combination of micro SIM card +Nano SIM card, nanoSIM card slot also supports microSD expansion. As for battery capacity, it's the biggest highlight, this handset uses a piece of the battery capacity reaching 4100mAh, considering the hardware performance and screen size and other factors, so that capacity for most people for 2 days of regular use will be no problem, overusing-users can also use a day. Compared with Redmi 2, redmi 3 has only added to the weight of the 10G, body thickness reduced to the 8.5mm, the gripping has not been affected because of increased battery capacity.
MIUI 7.1 for new version
Last week, Xiaomi will almost update its products to MUI 7.1 version, and xiaomi redmi 3 also used MIUI 7.1, in fact, xiaomi will not take this way to name, because updating too fast will not let the user defect, they just update some important function integrated into a small version to update, in order to let the users know the main features. Of course, MIUI 7.1 OS is based on Android5.1, which provide more fluency.
Support PDAF 13 million pixels camera
In terms of photo, redmi 3 increase largely, starting with the most intuitive pixels, Redmi 3 uses 5 million + 13 million pixels camera, 5P group, f/2.0 apertures, supporting PDAF phases focus, both in terms of pixels, and aperture and focus, redmi 3 has been significantly improved.
Redmi 3 real photos
For example:
In actual Imaging aspects, redmi 3 also has performed greatly , first is in analytical ability, whick leads to 8 million upgraded to 13 million, and good performance in details also should appreciate aperture aspects , actually redmi 3 in performance of white balance aspects lets people surprised, especailly perform real colors in the light shooting.
Snapdragon 616 Octa core processor
In terms of hardware configurations, redmi 3 is powered by Snapdragon 616 Octa core processor,which uses a senior + small quad-core design, frequency up to 1.5GHz, Adreno 405 integrated graphics processor, using 2GB RAM+16GB ROM memory combinations.
Conclusion
In the appearance section, I believe redmi 3 is a very controversial model, but on the overall experience, hardware configuration, and redmi 3 is a very attractive model. And compared with Redmi 2, redmi 3 is not a follow-up model without any change, but enough improvement such as Netcom, 4100mAh battery, etc. Xiaomi Redmi 3 is a real killer with affordable price right now.
Any one wants to have a try?
I'm interested redmi 3. Please, any info will be much appreciated.

working only with rom version 2
http://community.flash3c.com/t/tutorial-root-flash-plus-2-rom-version-2-only/5059/
thank you so much, unfortunately i'm rom version 1 :laugh:
Just arrived my Alcatel Flash Plus 2, very good assembly and perceived quality.
Good screen for brightness and colors, good touch with 5 points, and really good design!
white notification led in the uppers left corner, pleanty of sensors gyro, compass, etc.. 9 in total
Front Led Flash, backlighted lateral soft key and good touch and feel on the central button with fingerprint
Cpu MT6755M ati 1,8Ghz (lower than 1,95Ghz of MT6755) Gpu Mali T860 downclocked
MISSING band B20 800Mhz LTE/4G
Two sim slots (Micro and Nano) and separate Micro SD slot (metal cover can be removed).
for about 160€ at Myefox/Efox is really a good device!
Unfortunately my FP2 has ROM V.1 .. so i need to find a solution for TWRP, root and so on as soon as Alcetel/Tcl will publish stock rom in their site..
Regards
i am actually trying to decide between flash plus 2 or zenfone 2 2GB ram version, or save money and get the oneplus 2

battery seems very bad or there are some problems..
When i received i did first configuration, google account and my apps.
used it wothout any Sim or MicroSD.
Some testing app like geekbench, antutu, cpu-x etc..
Running Geekbench3 battery test (in airplane mode) after 45 Minutes of test, my battery was at 10% and after 2 minutes it was completely discharged.
I start charging with a qualcomm charger aukey (used to measure battery capacity) and found only 450mAh of capacity after 1 hour of charge..
It sounds very strange .. also charging during use, results in a charging speed of 1% each 20 seconds...
I'm skilled and i have many mediatek smartphone (i'm Italian reviewer of smartphone) and it never happened on other devices before..
What do you think? it could be a faulty battery?
My Rom is 10001

Not actually sure, it could be a deffective battery or OS error, if there is any updates so you should update but which one would you recommend between those 3 devices
Flash plus 2 : No NFC, fingerprint scanner, 32 GB internal storage, 3 GB RAM
Zenfone 2 2GB ram : got a very low brightness and no fingerprint scanner but got NFC ( NFC is Not a big deal )
Oneplus 2 : No NFS, fingerprint scanner, 64 GB internal storage, 4 GB Ram
I prefer a very clean, stock android experience

from what i hear it will be everywhere after 2 February after the Chinese Spring Festival
so we do not have to wait long. Price is undisclosed yet
Since the Google company official released its new version of operation system Android Nougat last year, still lots of flagship smartphones have yet to get updated to Android 7.0，and those phone manufactures appeal to need to take more time to roll out this new latest version of system to their products. However, some budget devices run Android 7.0 out of box in advance of many high-end handsets, how’s the performance of budget device powered by Android 7.0 ? And what’s the difference ?
In this video, the AGM A8 which is the rugged smartphone with very low price can show you the features of the Android 7.0

RE: AGM A8 - try to avoid GEARBEST ! + anyone know how to unlock / "root" one?t
I thought the AGM A8 for €128 on GearBest looked like a good deal -
My old phone's microphone has stopped working , so I bought one from GearBest . COM -
looks like a great phone, but GearBest have got to be the worst company I have ever dealt
with on the web. They took my money for "expedited 3-day DHL delivery", and here I am,
11 days later, with no phone and only a DHL tracking number issued 5 days ago saying the
package was picked up in Hong Kong. DHL said it was for delivery within 1-2 weeks.
GearBest wasted the first 5 days quibbling about my legal permanent address in Ireland being
longer than 35 characters - this is not even enough characters to represent the address of the
main DHL depot in Dublin, which is the only address GearBest agreed to deliver to, requiring them
to record my 16 digit driving licence # on the package (with the 38 character address of DHL's main depot)
so I can pick up - they were obviously just inventing an excuse for their delay .
They evidently don't speak or write english, and their communications with me have been nonsensical ,
probably auto-translated from Chinese by BabelFish-like software . I contacted AGM, who were very
helpful, and told be they are considering not supplying GearBest anymore because of many similar complaints ,
and that their phones will shortly be available for purchase on Amazon .
I wish I had waited !
P.S. : can anyone suggest the best method of rooting one of these devices, using only Open-Source software ?
Still investigating this, haven't found an Open Source rooting app that claims to be able to unlock one yet.
Thanks @7890K -
- yes, typical of my luck recently, I bought the phone for €128 3 days before they decided to offer the €9 flash sale, from the worst supplier on the web (GearBest.Com),
again a couple of weeks before it will be made available on Amazon; I also paid €8 for 3-day expedited delivery , and am still awaiting arrival 12 days later.
RE: Rooting Methods -
o AFAICS, after nearly 1 week searching, THERE IS NO OPEN-SOURCE ANDROID ROOTING APPLICATION , anywhere , period .
What I mean by open-source is that one can download the SOURCE CODE ( C / C++ / Java), build the application, and run it.
The motives for people distributing android rooting applications seem to me to be primarily :
1. Hacker Kudos (showing off).
2. Installing advertisements and unwanted paid-for content / bloat-ware on your phone
3. Taking over your device completely & maliciously .
None of these motives include helping people to unlock their phones:
A) controllably, so that the user knows every step that will being taken, and can choose not to take any step or to take different steps
B) Safely, so that bricking one's device is made as unlikely as possible
C) Understandably, so that users can read & understand exactly what will be attempted.
Noting the sad lack of above features, I've decided to write a rooting app myself, that will be open-source and have these features.
It may take a while, but at least I'll know exactly what state my phone will end up in, & it will be a good learning experience.
review of & stock ROM link for A8
I just received my new AGM A8, bought from GearBest 3-days before the €9 flash sale started
@ http://agmmobile.com . I think this may be because they are trying to offload the qualcomm
410 based units because they are about to bring out qualcomm 425 units (which is what it now says on
the specs web-pages).
But what a phone ! 4-bar 4G reception inside steel hulled boat,
Large 5" flawless display, excellent instant GPS fix & compass / orientation sensors ,
huge battery, FM radio, 13MPX camera.... & Android 7.0!
What's not to like ?
framaroot, z4root and kingaroot all failed to root the device .
Luckily, agmmobile have a link to the Stock ROM images at :
[Stock Rom] AGM A8 Android 7.0 Version (only for A8 7.0 device ,can't be used for update from 5.1 to 7.0)

I've copied that stock ROM to my google drive at : https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BxDTVsHFOZdTcHVmbmJZa3RNcHc
It just contains the file : T88Q_14.bin
, which is probably encrypted with some key , and is probably the only image the device will fastboot -
at least I'll have a copy of the image if agmmobile decides to remove it.
The Android settings does have a 'unlock OEM bootloader' option, but the device
does NOT support the 'fastboot oem unlock' command - it says 'no such command' ,
when I did get it to boot into fastboot mode by enabling developer mode & USB debugging,
plugging in the USB to my linux laptop with ADB installed, holding down Volume->UP while powering on,
and issuing fastboot commands.
The hardware identifies as an MSM8916 chipset with hardware ID: HS8939QC .
http://system-on-a-chip.specout.com/l/440/Qualcomm-Snapdragon-410-MSM8916
says :
"Devices which use QualComm 410 MSM8916 chipset :
Samsung Galaxy J3
LG G Stylo
LG G4c
Wileyfox Swift
Motorola Moto G 3rd Gen (2015)
LG G4c
"
But there do not seem to be any ROMs in lineageos or AOSP or ClockWorkMod ROMs for any of those
with Android 7.0 , so I cannot create a recovery yet & have not been able to root the device .
I would really like to build AOSP & create a flashable modifiable ROM for it - please, can anyone suggest how / which ROM / next steps ?
Only 2 glitches found so far, one the phone's fault, one android:
1. The phone slipped off my lap onto the carpet - the SIM card then became mis-sited & SIM card connection lost .
Not what I'd expect from a "Shock-Proof" device.
I think this is because the HUGE battery (with a true long life! +9hrs!) abuts with micrometer tolerance right
against the SIM card. Any sudden movement will mechanically vibrate the SIM card through the battery - but that
is literally the only design flaw I can find - an otherwise great phone.
2. An issue with lack of Wifi-HotSpot parameter settings on Android 7.0 - see : https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/networking/android-nougat-7-0-7-1-wifi-hotspot-t3574776
This is the killer for me - I am investigating investing in a GSM modem PCMCIA card for my laptop because of this if I cannot root the phone & update hostapd.conf .
I'm trying to build TWRP & AOSP recovery.
My mobile phone is my main internet connection.

Gearbest have it down as 28th April to begin shipping. Currently running a perfectly good Elephone P8000 with 4000mAh battery but really tempted by the K6000 Plus.
Anyone got any particular reason for buying this device compared to other Chinese flagships?

Yeah, on paper, no one knows of the real capacity yet. If battery capacity is your only concern then sure go ahead, but MediaTek MT6750 vs. Snapdragon 820 is a battle....no wait...it's obvious what to choose.

Yes, you are 100% right.
This isn't a device for everyone, you need to have some specific requirements to get it, otherwise there are much better Qualcomm Alternatives.

Yeah, on paper, no one knows of the real capacity yet. If battery capacity is your only concern then sure go ahead, but MediaTek MT6750 vs. Snapdragon 820 is a battle....no wait...it's obvious what to choose.

Depends on intended usage really; you're right, there's no doubting the Snapdragon is superior, but even entry level/mid-level CPU's are getting to the stage where they can handle pretty much anything thrown at it, aside from high end games. Day to day, the Antutu score matters not for me, but getting through a day or two is more important. I send emails and browse the web 95% of my time on the phone. Never game.
Current Elephone P8000 is 4000mah and i have no reason to doubt. The last 18 months it has performed brilliant getting 6 hrs of SOT. 15hrs since unplugged with 4hrs SOT and I'm still on 24%. Only changing because I'm intrigued...

Any update on your shipping? Looking forward to your review, just ordered mine from DX.com but no word on when it'll be dispatched

I'm very interested to read a hands on review for this model also. I've tried 20+ Chinese Android phones over the years and my Oukitel K6000 Pro is the one I keep going back to for daily use. In my experience they seem to under promise and over deliver where as almost all other phones have done the opposite. e.g. you are hard pressed to find info on the camera chipset yet it is as good as any of the other phones I've used that heavily promote their Sony or Samsung sensors.
My K6000 Pro has insane battery life, accurate finger print sensor, a super bright and clear display and decent camera. The ROM is seemingly bug free and I've received numerous OTA updates. I only wish they would not skin their ROM's this custom icons as I prefer vanilla Android and download a theme if I choose. Also, cell signal strength is not as good as it could be.
The two most recent phones I tried to 'upgrade' to were the UMI Super and the Xiaomi Note 4 however after 1-2 weeks with either I returned to the K6000 Pro. It is not an elegant phone and lacks the premium feel of the new full CNC type models but it is still my preferred phone.
I will be watching the K6000 Plus with interest.
Does anyone happen to know if the home button/finger print sensor is a physical moving button or capacitive touch only? I try and avoid physical moving home buttons.

There's not a lot of videos/pictures out there at the moment but there was one taken by someone at a mobile trade show, maybe MWC, and it does have a moving home button which also doubles up as a fingerprint scanner much like the iPhones. Either side there are capacitive buttons that from the looks of things are backlit, which looks good. Bit of a change for me as my Elephone fingerprint scanner is on the back, and i currently have a capacitive home button, but I'm not too bothered as long as it doesn't feel weak. It does sound like they've tried hard on the design and build quality of the K6000 Plus though. No word on when mine will be dispatched yet sadly but as soon as it arrives I'll post on here too.

According to Zi Reviews Tech the camera is better on the Ulefone Power 2.

I have to agree, i'm testing the K6000 Plus and it seems that there are some minor issues with the way Auto-Focus is handled.
