If malwarebytes report adups-fota as malware, you need to wait for firmware update that fix..
Cubot is going to update manito... which rom version you had now?

Thanks, so is a good news, expecially for security patch update.. please check with malwarebytes if adups-fota is updated and no malware

I did a scan and malwarebytes found no problems.
I have since also noticed that after this update the notification LED is working! That was one thing I missed previously. It's still very dim but at least I can see if there are notifications without having to activate the screen.

Everything is ok now
I got my phone on 31/12/2016 and it had installed the previous ROM. After I used my phone for few hours I realized it was installing applications without my permission. Also every time I was using Chrome it was opening itself tabs with SMS premium services. I upgraded the ROM with the links provided on the Cubot forum and now everything seems ok.
Also take a look at that: If you use ES file explorer and search in system apps with the keyword "opera" you will find an application with the name "Opera Mobile Store" signed by *hanhai.hanhai_OHQ. It doesn't look like an official app from Opera. I did some research on google and found out it's probably something suspicious. Malwarebytes and AVG didn't show anything but just in case I deactivated this app. That was the least i could do because I didn't root my phone yet.

I just realized that after this update my current ROM is "CUBOT_6093C_MANITO_V09_20161114_215728" and not the V11_20161205 like yours
Any idea why I didn't get the latest one although I downloaded the same link?
EDIT1: I forgot to mention that before this update I tried a couple days ago this method forum.cubot. net/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=1166 through my PC! (sorry for the spaces but forum security didn't let me post the link)
EDIT2: Finally I managed to update my ROM. The reason I couldn't do it before was because I had to clean the dalvik memory first. After that the update occured without problems.
Now I've got another question and if anyone knows I would happy to get an explanation. The dialer lacks the feature of direct video calls through the operator. I mean I want to video call someone without using my data plan and apps like Viber or Skype, etc. Why Cubot "forgot" to add this option? I believe it's something very important because front camera isn't for selfies only!

In February I got a notification on my phone that an update was available. "Great!" I thought. The upgrade rebooted during the "optimizing apps" phase after about every 20 apps, which I've never seen on any Android device before. After it finally completed, the version is shown as:
Android security patch level: 5 February 2017
Baseband version: MOLY.LR9.W1444.MD.LWTG.MP.V88.P27
Kernel version: 2.18.19+
Build number: CUBOT_6093C_MANITO_V14_20170214
which looked good.
HOWEVER!
After this update, I suddenly noticed popup ads appearing at the bottom of the screen, no matter what app was active, see the two screenshots. Also, about once a day some app I never asked for is installed automatically without any questions! The last couple of days it was UberEATS, before some so-called cleanup app that wanted to remove caches etc. I also get the setup opened on the Security page and a message "Please enable Unknown sources, thx"... the b*st*rds...
Any idea how to fix this? I first suspected a couple of apps I had installed after the upgrade, but those are gone now. Might a factory reset help, or could it really be that Cubot is doing this in the firmware?

Hello wurtelll. I did the same OTA upgrade and everything seems ok. No pop up ads or installing of unwanted apps without my permission. I would suggest you to hard reset. Also smth weird. Before this update, the OTA upgrade app was recognized as virus from the AVG antivirus, but now after the last update the OTA app is ok.

Hi beertodeath, good news that you don't have any problems, that's restored my faith in Cubot a bit. I only installed apps from the Google play store, so apparently that's not 100% safe... I've gone ahead and did a factory reset, and reinstalled my essential apps. Now I'll wait for a week to see if anything weird starts to reappear.

It's been about a week since I did the factory reset and I'm happy to say that I've not noticed any strange things going on, so apparently some app I had installed was the problem. Malwarebytes didn't see any problems though, and I only installed via the Googe Play Store, so that isn't a guarantee for safety, unfortunately...

That's strangely funny but now my phone has the same spam ads like wurtell's one. I didn't even download any new app and the last two days I get spam ads in my screen and in addition some times when I enter the PlayStore i get redirected to random apps like "Super File Manager (Explorer)". I also found on a Russian forum that many people have the same problem. It's pretty strange that almost all owners of Manito started having these spam ads at the same time. I started believing that Manito has built in malware scripts.
Anyway, I contacted with Cubot and they asked me the debugging and logs from MTKlogger and I already provided them with these. I don't want to factory reset my phone again because I already did many resets since December and I hate backing up from the beginning all my settings.
I hope they will find a solution soon and finally make a clean ROM, or even better Cubot will get Google certification (ho ho ho).

cubot manito is my fourth chinaphone
cubot manito is my fourth chinaphone. Only one of them (Oukitel u8) was clean. The other: umi diamond and THL T9 pro contained spy software in official updates. The same problem with Cubot Manito now.

The latest on the AW 5.01 Update (as of 12/16/2014)

There are so many threads and posts raging about "where is my 5.01 update" and "its past Dec 15, it should be here..." I figured I'd start a new post, rather than post this same stuff in many threads for others to see.
Well, reading the thread on Moto's site, and a few threads on XDA, it appears things have changed.... Here is the latest Based on threads/posts.
Google, Not Moto is pushing the update. (Per Matt, moderator of Moto's own forums)
Moto had posted a schedule and information on their internal forum saying that Android Wear 5.01 Build number: LWX48P was coming and would be pushed to 100% by 12/15/2015. See -> https://forums.motorola.com/posts/03d71d8377
Here we are Dec 16, and many still don't have it.
Before the 15th, there were posts from some who received LWX48P also getting "a second update."
Posted more recently are reports of Build LWX48T on their 360, including -> https://forums.motorola.com/posts/03d71d8377?commentId=852559#852559
Now there are posts that yes, the "second update" is LWX48P to LWX48T
See... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57531050&postcount=28 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57532096&postcount=32 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57537294&postcount=34
This would imply that the rumors of a bug being found, halting the roll out, and the roll out re-starting, could possibly be correct.
As I posted in another thread... I guess we'll have to start the waiting game over again.
Unknowns at this point...
What will happen with the roll out Now?
Will the remainder of the 48P roll out be scrapped in favor of sending a single push directly to 48T to those still on AW4.4w2? How would this impact the time table?
How soon will those on 48P get the update to 48T?
How soon will those still on AW4.4W2 get updated to AW5.01?

I just had an update from the xp to XT version
My trick to update has always been this..
1. Charge watch full battery
2. Restart watch, connect to phone
3. Check for update... It says up-to-date
Go to android wear app... Make it to "forget moto 360"
4. Re connect phone to watch
5. Check for update
Downloading...!!!!!

The original post on Moto's forum -> https://forums.motorola.com/posts/03d71d8377 has been updated.
It now reflects Build number: LWX48T
And the schedule has been replaced with...
Rollout Schedule
Users will not be able to force an upgrade out of turn
Edited: Removed detailed rollout schedule. All Moto 360 users should receive the update by the end of this week.

I've been working on making a digital info display for my 71 Bug using an Arduino. So this isn't entirely out of my realm.
I guess I'm more concerned with breaking the seal on the watch to get to the pins.
Just as a quick update, what i had to do to get to the latest version:
Flashed back to 42R, did the OTA to KNX01S.
Booted to bootloader and fastboot booted TWRP, connected via adb in TWRP and followed the guide to flash 5.0
When i was done and on 5.0 i then repeated with the 5.0.1 update
If you are rooted the update will fail, this allows a "temp" root to allow you to write to /cache and force teh update.zip without breaking the update process. Once you are on 5.0.1 you can flash TWRP and teh supersu package from my twrp thread and it will root you on the latest version

Looks like your bootloader version is 3. New one is 4. But we have you can Odin files with v4 bootloader. So I will say yes you will get ADB or Odin files to go back or update.

No future problems will there be risks to upgrade to nougat using the updated bootloader?
That is my current concern, that in the future v4 will not be able to upgrade to nougat via abd or odin (I do not know which one to choose)

V4 is current official AT&T bootloader for Note 5. You will be able to update if you are on V4 bootloader.

I just got this update OTA last night. This is what I was waiting for since I want to wait until the Nougat update to factory reset again. Seems good so far but haven't had it long enough to find major differences.

best way to upgrade from LMY47X.N920AUCU2APB2 to MMB29K.N920AUCS4CQA1
Hi,
Thanks a ton for the update!! I have a at&t note-5 being used on t-mobile and is currently on build number:LMY47X.N920AUCU2APB2(mar 2016 update) and I was wondering as to how to upgrade to the latest version MMB29K.N920AUCS4CQA1. Since I can't get my hands on a at&t sim I will need to update it manually. Could anybody please guide me as to what is the best way to get to the latest version. I did search the forum but there seem to multiple and sometimes confusing ways so wanted a little clarity on that. Thanks in advance!!
You can ODIN from your desktop PC directly to *****PK1
After that, you would then use ADB from your desktop PC (USB debugging enabled) to sideload the subsequent updates to your device as Nobarb suggested. However that last step would wipe your device (so a backup will be necessary).
I'm in the same boat as you are, so I'm just waiting for the next official update (or something flashable in ODIN to get me back up to date)

Realme 5 Pro - realme UI V1.0 Android 10 - Official version available for download

The official Android 10 version for Realme 5 Pro is available for download from official site.
Official Download link
Impressed with the performance and new UI. It includes updates for VoWifi as well.
But also found that some bloatwares got installed along with the update.
Way better performance!!!!
I was checking the official website like every ten minutes. I downloaded it as soon as I saw the update. The size was almost 3.5GB. It took only 6-7 minutes for installation. And to be honest Realme UI looks way better than ColorOS. I played PUBG for almost an hour and the gameplay was much better than before. It gave me constant 45fps even when screen recording!!! Gonna try 60fps tomorrow!!
On the indian website, the new version is available, but on the european website, it still shows the old update with ColorOS 6...
I wonder if the version on the indian website is the same for every country? If so, can I install it without causing problem? Or should I wait for OTA?

In my experience with both custom and stock ROMs on several different phones,, a data reset or clean flash is always a good idea with major OS upgrades, i.e between android versions. That's why I bit the bullet and reset it. Runs fine after.
Initial impressions of Realme UI after using it for 48 hours
1. Battery is terrible. Does not last me for a work day (100% in the morning and it dies out before night). I have done a factory reset to no avail
2. I dont see 4G+ anymore.
3. Wifi speeds have increased significantly
4. GPS lock happens rather quickly now
5. The phone is always warm and gets a bit hot when used for a longer period. I dont play any games. Just emails, browser and some social media
6. RealmeUI seems like a half cooked product. Especially the dark mode (and vice versa)

Initial impressions of Realme UI after using it for 48 hours
1. Battery is terrible. Does not last me for a work day (100% in the morning and it dies out before night). I have done a factory reset to no avail
2. I dont see 4G+ anymore.

thank you for the review.
does ram management get better with this update?
in android 9, the apps auto killing even after turning off all battery savings.
Can I install this with TWRP?
does it wipe all my data and remove my root,Magisk, and TWRP?
if it does remove all my data, my root is there any workaround method to update ?
Sorry I'm a newbie that just learnt how to root last month ?

I did not notice any background app killing and have not noticed the RAM mgmt. I have the 6Gb version so not to particular.
This was a wonderful device on Pie. Q just killed it. I had raised an issue on the community portal and the response was quite silly (turn off wifi, it is summer, use dark mode etc). So either we patiently wait for the patch or switch to another phone if you already have one.
If you have not updated yet, i would recommend hold on
Still don't have the smart sidebar.
Google Assistant opens automatically nearly everytime I hit return
This update is so broken

EMUI 11 [Global] Huawei P30 (ELE)

Huawei has finally begun the rollout of EMUI 11 for the Huawei P30 (ELE) and P30 Pro (VOG) today. The version is 11.0.0.138 and the package size is about 1.81 GB.
How to check for the update:
1. go to Settings then System & updates, then open Software update, select Check for updates
2. open the Support app, go to the Service tab on the bottom bar, tap on the update, then select Check for updates and then download and install
3. connect to a PC with a USB cable and check for updates in HiSuite
Feel free to share your experience with EMUI 11, please also share the exact type of your device (e.g. ELE-L29 C431E27R2P5) and how did you manage to update to EMUI 11, also mention from which build did you update.
In case the download method or updating with HiSuite proxy will be available, also share a how-to and I kindly ask you to perform a SafetyNet test.
I used VPN and chose China, then set the region of my phone to Nepal yesterday. The Support app found 10.1.0.201 with this trick. Then today, about an hour ago I checked the Support app again and it finally offered me to update to EMUI 11. Hooray!

It is only anything newer than the p30 series that cannot use google apps. Nothing is going to suddenly change on your phone.

They didn't, that was my point. It's only newer devices that are without Google services.
I just got my P30 (ELE-L29 UK Unlocked) updated to EMUI11, updated to the January security update, then enabled my VPN with china selected then checked for updated in the support app.
Also a sidenote, this is EMUI11 but it's still android 10, and good gesture navigation is still not working with Nova launcher
Edit: Now fails safetynet, so no google pay for now....

How come that your phone failed the safetynet test if you updated via OTA? I'm on 11.0.0.138(C431E8R2P3) and it passes the test and Google Pay works fine.
I believe that gesture navigation will not work perfectly if you use a third-party launcher. I use Evie launcher and I also had to install MyGesture app from Play Store. I like it better than the stock gestures, more customizable.

I have no idea, I did a backup with hisuite, factory reset with recovery mode and now it passess, so it might have been a bug or one-off or something ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
got update today, UK Vodafone, ele-l09 /c431e8r3p3/
Yesterday my phone received the EMUI 11 update (build 11.0.0.138), no need to do any trick. Model ELE-L29, unlocked, Spain.
Since the upgrade, VoLTE was enabled (it was off before the update) and the option to disable VoLTE is no longer available on the settings menu.
Anyone with the same issue? Any way to disable VoLTE using call codes or something else?
Stll nothing here. Getting frustrated because the website for my phone company shows the update as being released.
friends I have a P30 model ELE-L04 and I have not found any information regarding this model regarding emui 11. Do you have information about it?

Question Oneplus 9Pro got "system update available, 4.53GB, but I am not a Beta tester, wth?

Hi into the forums,
I try to find out about this update, 'cause it is just "a bit big" for minor changes and a security patch, methinks. My guess, it is the Oxycolor13.
But I do not find any information about a stable version, only betas are out or pulled back, so what do they offer here?
Got that info/offer 2 days ago and are still clueless!
Can it be that it is somehow the ColorOs? Did read that China OP9Pro get updated with Color Os 13 for LE2120.
Mine seems to be a LE2125 (shown unter "about device"), but it is an import phone, out of the box with google, all languages, plus the former update to Oxycolor 12 worked the normal way.
Thanks for helping.

Hi.
What's your OOS12 version?
That looks like a full-update to the latest OOS12 C.65, the same version many of us here have installed over the past week. Except we all mostly just got the incremental update, because OnePlus hasn't put out a full update file since last spring.. Until now, it seems.

So it is another Android 12 update? Only? confusing

Ok, if it is that, I do appologyze for asking. Just confused, since everyone is talking about 13.
Edit: One more question: Do I have to do that full update to 12, with the 13 coming our way?
What does it say your model number is on physical box your phone came in
If you don't have the official box, it will be on the back of your phone, very close to the charger port at the bottom.
I haven't actively searched for information on it, but AFAIK OnePlus have not yet released an Android 13?
Anyone care to guess how long it'll take TMO to follow up with a massaged (spam filled) OnePlus Android 13 after it gets dropped?
I'll guess two months but it's a guess based on assumption, not facts or experience.

Ok, that clears the model number, box says it is a chinese 2120.
Thanks, didn't think about checking the box.
Probably because with past models just the OS was the difference, not the hardware. And mine came with global pre-installed and I had no problems in the past
For future reference, the ColorOS/Oxygen OS 13 update has an F instead of C, so "LE2125_11_C.XX" is Android 12, while "LE2125_11_F.XX" is Android 13.

I am already questioning that they still call it LE2125_11_
Already for the Android 12 update, I was thinking: wth?
For me, it would be more logic to call Droid 11 updates _11+, followed by A or B or .... , for every next one
And
Android 12 =_12_
Android 13 = _13_
Since the 2125 is the model.
But hey, I am just a OP phone user.
Thanks to all for helping
Only one more question:
Do I need to flush this full update over my Android 12 version?
One of the last updates was already a "full one" (in GB , not MB), and with 13 coming out some time in the nearer future, ....
As bigger an update, as more problems to expect, imho.
Don't really need that twice in a couple of weeks or month!

Not saying it makes sense, but that's what OnePlus did for 9 Series.
For 10 Pro "A" is Android 12, and "C" is Android 13 LOL.

I 100% agree, I've argued with people who said "LE2125_11_" was OOS 11. They should just go back to OOS 11.2.10.10 naming, OOS 12.X.XX.XX, and OOS 13.X.XX.XX.
To update to this version, you have to be on either C.63/C.65 for NA/IN, or C.64/C.65 for EU
Weird!
Yesterday, the update size changed, from 4,x GB to 409MB.
What is going on with Oppo's sub brand?

Nope!.
Not rooted at all.
Just the message changed from 4,x GB to 400MB size for the available update.
Btw , I did the "small one", today.
Now the 9pro is "up2date".
Was I a bit premature, perhaps?
Got this today, october security update:
Perhaps that was the reason for switching from 4.xGB to 400MB for the last update?
"We need to convince them to update, there is another one waiting, already. They dont like 4GB? Try smaller"
