19th April 2018
My Chuwi Hi9 Air shipped this morning, expected delivery 12th May with free shipping.
Still b/o for me ?
Well, my order from 4/15 still on b/o as of today. Hoping for any cell connectivity since the band 4 "disappeared" from earlier announcements! I travel a lot so should be good in row.
Currently running row ROM on nvidia shield tablet but battery life has become terrible in the last few updates. At least it gets hspa+ in USA and LTE elsewhere on the planet. And the big + was never had to wait on ATT to bless an update!
Going to use this Chuwi to replace a pipo m6 pro w/custom rom Itravel with.
Let us know all about it as soon as you get it!
Edit: Now they say shipping 5/15.....maybe I should get interest on the cash I gave them 4/15.....???
Will hold tight. I have time to cancel if the first hands on reviews are terrible!

Hi! I just started looking into Chuwi products. I'm anxious to hear your review of the Hi9! I also would like to know why did you choose the Hi9 and not the Hi10?
Thank you!

Hi, I’m still running some benchmarks, I will post a review soon.
One important point to note, this is the Chuwi Hi9 Air not Hi9. Big difference!

Well, if I should ever receive mine I am glad to see they may update a few things! Ordered 4/15 still not shipped. Thanks much for your unboxing on YT. Hopefully the updates won't disable any wifi or cellular bands!

You say in the video that there will be no custom rom flashing due to A-Only, how does that correspond with the fact that A-only system.imgs are available?

You can also root it with the installation of twrp.
RECOVERY:http://www.needrom.com/mobile/recovery-twrp-2-7-1-0-kk-for-thl-5000/
Download from playstore and use MobileUncle to flash recovery, place .img file into root of your memory.
you have to have the twrp-2-7-1-0-kk-for-thl-5000 recovery.img file of your phone before you flash it put them in your sd card
Instruction :-

2 install mobile uncle tool.apk
3 open mobile uncle tool
4 select flash recovery then select the twrp-2-7-1-0-kk-for-thl-5000 recovery

Another way to install the twrp is with the flashtool, download it from needrom also download the factory rom from needrom, run the flash tool program locate the scatter file in the factory rom then go to recovery and locate the twrp file uncheck all the files except the recovery file ,then change to download only and press download, this procedure must be done without the phone connected, after you press the download button switch off your phone then keep pressing the red reset button behind the first sim slot insert the usb cable and then release the reset button the procedure should start if the procedure don’t start it means that you’re missing the preloaded drivers of mtk.

Great device
HHow about battery life and screen on time?
Yes excellent device, I have received the phone yesterday and I was trying to root it and installed the recovery so I don't have screenshots of the battery yet, one is thing is that the phone was at 4% the previous day and it last about 2 hours of 3/4 of use before it shut down.

i'm predicting 10 hours screen on time
Thank you for this post, I'm considering this for my next phone and I was wandering about rom customization. The original rom is good?
I don't know this brand, I'm wondering if it is compatible with cyanogenmod or miui, do you know?

Compatible with MIUI, it is easily ported throughout all mtk6592 devices. Not cyanogenmod though
It seems that the major drawback for development is mediatek not releasing the source codes, but they seem to be trying to change, they opened the mediatek labs to give support to developers. Don't know how this will work though... I hope they finally release the source codes soon.
Edit: I've seen a video stating this phone has an amprius battery, it's a company that is supposed to be making major breakthroughs in battery development... anyone knows how to confirm this?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This phone has a 4.35v 5000mAh 19.00Wh Silicon Anode Lithium-polymer (Li-po) Battery.
Amprius (Brand) is Lithium-ion (Li-ion) .... (Google it) ... http://www.amprius.com/
I'm leaving mine alone until the warranty runs out....Might root it though.
I'm just put in 'Next Launcher Pro' and using that rather than the MiUi.
The original rom is actual pure android with some themes,if you install the xposed framework and gravity box you can edit the rom as cyanogenmod,about miui sure,cyanogenmod i do not think so.

I have solved thanks the suggestion of a needrom user
I have made a factory reset then i have used Vroot (Chinese version) and the root works
Make that I install superuser from the play store which automatically replace the Chinese version of superuser
Thanks to everyone for the help
Got 2 of those in the mail
<Sorry if this is a little off-topic>
My first concern was the GPS - so I rooted one of them, installed MT GPS EPO Fix, FasterGPS & GPS Status.
GPS seems to zero in after 2 seconds. I'd like to note that when "sensor filtering" was set to "none" in GPS Status, it would see the satellites but not acquire a fix. With any other option it's ok.
(I didn't test the performances before applying these mods - I'll try it with the other phone later)

I just received mine this mourning still testing it.
Looks great, seems fast and performing... was searching a safe way to root it, though. Any help?
Quick review and questions
Thanks ghost45 for starting this thread.
My ZP920 arrived yesterday.
It seems pretty quick, but antutu froze during the 3d graphics test and the final score was only 32000 ??
Battery life seems very poor at present, down to 1% after 24 hours, although about an hour of that was on wifi, my old ThL W8 would do better. I've noticed that when I switch off and connect charger the screen immediately shows 27% charge, not the 1% before switch off. Anybody any clues ? faulty battery ?
Does anybody know which usb drivers are required and (ideally) a solid method for rooting the mtk6752 ?
I'm looking forward to progressing with this phone and hoping it is as good (well much better than) my old faithful - but slow - W8.

Hi,
Probably antutu not have the necessary info to test this new phone with 64 bit architecture.
The problem about the battery is hard but i will hope after 7or 8 cycle of recharge the battery will be good.
I will test it immediately after that i receive it in my hands.
See you

Hi, update,
Antutu v5.5 works well gives score 41450! (v5.6 still hangs at 3D graphics test ?? bug? also it doesn't list 64bit/32bit cpu test?)
Camera on mine works brilliantly for stills and video - skype video is best ever.
Battery life getting better after a couple of recharge cycles, now getting nearly 4 days mostly on standby.
Has anybody tried the Ghost45 rooting method yet ??
If I root manually (by su binary adb push from linux host etc) will this still void warranty and block future ota updates (i.e. to Lollipop)?

My Update :good:
- yes the camera, overall is pretty good, excellent with decent lighting
-battery life is getting better every day (i'm at the 5th recharge cycle): after a full working day with medium usage, i'm still at 71%
-i found a post on zopomobileshop forum explaining how to root the device with the alert:
Remember after received the right root is not possible to apply the update of new firmwares.
Still havent tried yet, was hoping to get Lollipop on it.

Hi,
I interested this phone, but i don't know what's about battery life. How many ours can you use the smartphone (time on screen in battery setting) in normal usage (wifi, 3G, games etc.)? Thank you in advance.
Could someone please run androbench and post the first 4 results. And if you run the benchmark several times, does performance drop significantly?
Thanks

Android 4.4 Reversing Camera Mirror With A10,A23,A33 CPU
These mirrors come in many different flavours now. At time of edit post A33 x5 quadcore is the latest with 16GB. This newer unit can be rooted with kingroot apk version. I find I lose root after reboot for some reason. I haven't found a firmware for this mirror version as of yet. For some reason my mirror does not have a wifi antenna attached so poor signal unless 4 meters line of sight. Please becareful as from experience from buying 3 mirrors now, there can be huge differences to build quality even thou they look the same.
I'm not updating this thread with RT01 firmware anymore. Please check Baidu link below
Also need this to load firmware to TF/microsd
PhoenixCard_V310_20130618.rar
To load new firm run Phoenixcard - Select image - Insert TF card/ Microsd - Choose burn (Try until magic) - Insert Tf Card into mirror and shutdown - After mirror firmware loaded you must format to normal or Tfcard will flash mirror again on reset
You may also find your firmware here. Let me know if you can't download it(use iPad to view)

Just got this item off eBay. Url removed
Screen looks great. Touch screen works a treat. Nice and bright and good angle also.
There are a few things different listed that the seller on eBay has not listed correct.
It comes with android 4.4.2 And not 4.0
Has a A23 dual core and not A10
Kernel version 3.4.39
And it has a battery which would last a couple of days with no use - make sure you turn off wifi when not on power
This is a true android with some very basic functions missing. Starting it has no google services. So no google play store, no where to login to google account in settings. The launcher looks good(you can't change it) expect there is no access to app list. You can click on navi button - which holds no navigation software funny enough. Once inside the navi button you can hold on the screen and then it brings you up a app selection screen giving you option to add icons(still no gps map softwares)
Once connected to Internet apps start updating when you open them which is pretty cool.. There is an update option under andriod version screen which fails to find any update with an error(searches Internet for update or you can local upload file).
Overall I'm pretty impressed with this device and its speed. I was able to install google maps by browser. But once I closed it I could not open it again cause no icon to click on. Google maps ran a little bit sluggish but was acceptable. I'm now chasing the seller for a solution to google play store as the play store ask won't open after installing.
I was able to side load apps quite easily with the browser. Seems most work if the don't depend on play store or accounts being setup in google settings.
Synic gps software won't work as it wants to use playstore to download more files.
Es explorer works fine.
I don't think I will be able to get root access as there is no developer menu, but after clicking on firmware build number says you are already a developer
i have this one and have Google playstore, i have installed nova launcher without problem, all is fine
Hi, is it model rt01?
Do you have the same firmware 4.4.2 and specs?
Does it have an option to add google account inside android OS?
As mentioned above no google account in my OS which means no history in google maps. Very frustrating.
Could I also grab the seller as I my have to purchase a new one
Thank you if you can help
hello, i bought mine to this seller from Aliexpress, received in 8 days via DHL
http://fr.aliexpress.com/item/5-inch-Android-Mirror-Monitor-GPS-1080P-Digital-Video-Recorder-Rear-view-Camera/2021095296.html
The item has exactly the spécifications as described from top of topic and is a rt01 model, else allwinner A23 Inside, android 4.4.2 KitKat Inside
i have in native Google playstore and i have created my account without problem as soon as i powered up for the firs time the mirror
best regards
Thanks for your help appreciated.
Need to try a scab a firmware update as my seller refuses to speak with me now.
Might just buy what you got I think.
you can try to communicate via aliexpress with the store, seller is Mr wilson cao and ask him for a firmware, it's a pleasant person who respond to me very fast, also after my purchase for details. Try to say you're a friend of me (Superboost) and have same miror and you want the same OS, give a try, good luck.

at this time i'm trying to root for install some progs. Framaroot = KO, kingroot not able to connect at his cloud for exploit. At this time not result. If i can, also put a twrp or other and save firmware and tranfer to you? Have an idea of rooting ?
I have seen a update.zip file for root on the net. I was thinking doing it that way.
I'll give it another go as I was more focused on gapps.zip before.
Do you have development option to activate usb debugging? I don't have this option, so it makes it hard for me.
That's why I suggested an update.zip method.
If you have usb debugging (lucky you) then try http://www.shuame.com/en/root/
Also sent a msg to your seller. I think he would have to be very nice to give time for nothing being a business man
I have not the "usb debugging option" and no more the menu security for the possibility to "accept unknown sources" option. I think it will be impossible to root the item.....
tell me if you have a response from seller, have a good day
I was going to try to enable usb debugging by a terminal command but gave up after I couldn't install gapps
Try this maybe

hello, i have installed usb drivers of the mirror (hold down volume button and plug USB) and found an unknown device, i downloaded livesuit pack V1.9 and in the usb directory, it found the driver.
Now i can lauch livesuit but it wait for an .img image file for flash.... that's all for this time.... perhaps a way for future rooting?, have a good day
Your seller is very nice.
Thank you also.. Now have to work out how to install
This is a link I found on google

hello, happy for you, i expect you can flash this firmware and having opérationnal Google on it.
This seller is very nice, i put it a 5+++++ stars on aliexpress
have a good day
It's a puzzle..
You have an img file.. And Phoenixcard..
Putting in sdcard and selecting startup it puts the android OS on the sdcard and you boot from that so you can test the image I suppose.
Could not see any google account. Also I have alarm next to the radio icon. When I put this one on I got the browser instead.
Can I ask under settings about tablet is your build number 20150410 ?
in the info i have : rt01-eng 4.2.2 KVT49L 20150410 test-keys
It's seem that is the same build than downloaded
perhaps puting applications in "download" folder of the program will put them on the image for flashing ?
Thank you so much. You are a legend.
Its as I figured.
running the phoniexcard program you select Startup to run off sdcard.. which is way slow.
So I took the plunge and hit production and it setup my sdcard which in turn updated my unit.
Now its usable and I cant thank you enough!
have you all you want in ? Google account possible? the next challenge : rooting...
---------- Post added at 01:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:45 PM ----------
Because it's difficult to find this firmware, i put it on a Mega download
https://mega.co.nz/#!ZEwxzAyJ!HzowmA3-bVbcCdZpY7tHsQ5sV2kLQ8d6lwX6Y4Q0IXY
It include the program Phoenixcard for generate the bootable SD card for update firmware
for someone else who search
Yes rooting is on the cards now...
Just enjoying play store for the moment..
Plus I've noticed a huge increase in speed.
Large improvement in firmware need to keep eye open for future releases

Please make sure you power off the device before inserting sim cards.
You need to use the correct size sim.
Does your sim definitely work in another phone with the same frequency bands?

Review
For those following my reviews you will notice that this one (and all other that might be released in the future) is different. Why? I don't want my reviews to be all the same anymore, so i am adopting this new format that is shorter, easier to read and without lots of photos.
Joining the battery phones area, the BLUBOO S3 comes with an huge 8500mAh battery (real capacity, confirmed with my USB Tester) but low/mid-end specsfor the 2018, probably the only real downside about this device.
Something that really impressed me is the amount of accessories provided in the box, absolutely outstanding, and here is a full list of them: 1x Type-C to Micro/Type-C/Lightning USB to charge other devices, 1x Type-C to USB A adapter, 1x Pump Express Charger (up to 12v), 1x USB Type-C Cable, 1x Type-C to 3.5mm Headphone Jack adapter, 1x Extra Plastic Screen Protector and 1x Black TPU cover. The most complete set i have ever seen for a smartphone, seriously.
Nothing to complain about its build quality, it is well-made with no imperfections, even though i am not an huge fan of this plastic back case since it makes the device really slippery and doesn't feel nice in the hand. I like the visual effect though, similar to a grill. The weight that BLUBOO declares can be confirmed, 285g based on my scale, not extreme considering the metal chassis.
The FHD+ 18:9 screen is just perfect, pretty bright, with excellent colors and a reasonable refresh rate (not excessive smearing effect can be noticed). Bezels are limited enough, but could have been slimmer.
Something i have to complain about is the software. BLUBOO writes Android 8.1 on the box while the device runs Android 7.0 instead. Sure, i know that the website says Android 7.0 (upgradable via OTA to 8.1 soon), but you can't write false things on the box, instead "7.0 (8.1 via OTA)" would have been better and fair. I hope to not see this happening again.
Anyway, the Android 7.0 Nougat OS (usual Mediatek release) runs decently but its smoothness is limited but the chipset that isn't ideal to handle a FHD+ screen. An Helio P23 or P25 is the minimum for this resolution IMHO.
But, there is something really important to say about this software release: it doesn't come with any malware/virus unlike what happened with all previous BLUBOO devices. Well done BLUBOO for the positive change.
This is the first device, as far as i remember, that comes with a dedicated option to charge other devices. I am not sure if it does allow more than the usual 0.5A USB current, but i doubt it is just a placeholder option. Unfortunately i don't have an USB trigger that can be used together with my tester to show the real current, but if some of you can do this test, please leave here a post.
Confirming what i mentioned before, benchmarks are quite low due to the high-res display, but some of them (those not GPU-intensive) perfectly match other MT6750T devices.
Here you can see all of them: https://imgur.com/a/CeKxs6t
Unfortunately the GPS Antenna is the achilles heel of this device, completely unusable indoors (left), and just decent outdoors (right).
Average 4G signal reception with decent speeds, and the same applies to 3G networks. Unfortunately there is no WiFi AC support, but in WiFi N-mode 5GHz i am able to get the maximum speed from my internet connection.
Camera are slightly over average for a battery phone, with a Samsung 16MP sensor for both sides (back and front), holding the second primate about this camera configuration, never seen before. The back camera is able to shot sufficient photos, as noisy as on all Mediatek Devices coming with this camera sensor, and sometimes, without HDR mode turned on, photos seem to be over-exposed, but the amount of detail is impressive unless the amount of available light decreases. Let's say that it requires just some minor improvements via an OTA update.
Finally, the battery life of the beast. First of all, i need to clarify something about this MT6750T chipset. It is super power-hungry, not power efficient, and on this device it is stressed to the maximum due to the max resolution. What does it mean? It means that even with such a big battery, it is hard to get good results, and the PCMark Battery Test can confirm that, only 18h. The Helio P23, with smalller batteries, is able to exceed that result. Still, it is not a bad result, just don't expect miracles even though the battery capacity is real.
What to say about this device...if BLUBOO (or well, sellers) manages to keep the price low, i think it can be declared as one of the best Mediatek battery phones available on the market, as long as they maintain the promise about this declared Android 8.1 Oreo OTA update.
Recommended to those who don't mind about the weight and thickness about a device.
Device Rating: 8.3
Pros: Decent Battery Life; Solid and sturdy; Excellent Screen
Cons: No Headphone Jack; Outdated and slow Chipset; Disappointing GPS Quality
Waiting for my phone and someone to come up with TWRP recovery for this device so that I could install Magic Manager to it

Who's the first to publish TWRP for this phone? ?
And if someone could add the stock ROM to needrom.com so thus I could install Magic Manager to it ?
Anybody who has found out to mute the booting sound of the phone? It's pretty annoying, especially when the kids are sleeping and you have to turn on your phone.

BluBoo has provided the original stock rom and a S3 customized flash tool for download on their forum.

Some information about GPS: drove approx. 400 kms today and GPS never lost its track. So it ain't bad. Seen worse GPS antennas among Chinese Android phones.

hey Sensonic can you help us out with the files you used?
I found a version recently updated on needrom but Im not sure if something is wrong with it. I can unlock and flash it fine and use TWRP but thats where it ends.
needrom.com/download/twrp-3-2-1-for-bluboo-s3/
I get a request for a decryption password I dont have nor ever setup (phone is encrypted from the start in the menu) done the "default_password" ive setup a pin, swipe, etc and none of them will unlock.
I did some googling and people say to wipe the data but the phone just keeps returning to TWRP regardless of what I do.
Ive had to restore it with the original bluboo recovery just to get the phone to boot correctly again.
I must be missing something here.
edit: so I used twrp to update the boot with a magisk patched one then used twrp to overwrite itself with the stock recovery and now it boots fine with root. so kinda round about and I still cant use TWRP but at least it kinda works?

OK, goes like this. BTW, I'm not responsible if you'll brick your device etc.
You need:
-ADB Fastboot or similar
-Mediatek drivers
-SP Flashtool
-Bluboo S3 ROM
-TWRP img file
-patched Magisk Manager boot file
1. Unlock bootloader: Go to developers options and tick "OEM unlock" active.
Open ADB Fastboot (I presume you have MTK drivers already installed)
Connect your phone to your computer. Type "adb reboot-bootloader". The phone will boot itself to bootloader
Type "fastboot oem unlock" and press enter. Then push VOL plus on the phone. The phone will boot twice and ERASE ITSELF TO FACTORY SETTINGS.
2. When the bootloader has been unlocked, go back to developer options and enable USB debug.
Go to http://community.bluboohk.com/forums/topic/instructions-of-bluboo-s3/
Download ROM and SP Flash Tool (if you already don't have it on your computer)
3. Download TWRP img file: needrom.com/download/twrp-3-2-1-for-bluboo-s3/
4. Open SP Flash Tool, select scatter file from the ROM. Rename aforementioned image file to recovery.img and flash only that file to your phone. Now you have TWRP on your phone.
5. Power on your phone put the boot file of the ROM to your phone.
6. Install Magisk Manager APK to your phone. Choose "patched boot file" and point where you've saved the aforementioned boot file. The phone will save patched boot file to Magisk Manager's subfolder.
7. Connect the phone to your computer and save that patched boot file to your computer. Rename it to boot.img and replace the original boot.img file of the aforementioned ROM.
8. Open SP Flash tool, select scatter file again and flash only the aforementioned boot.img file.
Done. You have TWRP and a rooted phone :good:
Is there a reason to use the SP Flash Tool instead of fastboot other than flashing the entire ROM file? Is there anything different that the tool does from "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" and "fastboot flash boot boot.img" that it should be used instead?

fastboot frequently mess up the partition layout on mediatek devices due to a poor implementation. Also, it forces you to unlock the bl, while with sp flash tool you can flash anything you want without unlocking it.
Hi All! Thanks for the info and review.
I have one of these and seem to have run into a couple of issues. Maybe the owners can help me figure things out.
1. I can't seem to get my Sd to work on my phone. I tried to format it on the phone but it gets stuck.
2. It gets hot, very hot when changing and pretty hot when I am using it for more than 5 or 10 mins.
3. For the life of me I can't figure out how to put the phone in silent (no vibration)
Any advice or info is thoroughly appreciated!

Many actually useful google apps are not compatible with this phone and google play store displays message in settings device not certified.
For example google pay app is incompatible.
Battery is also fake, no way it has 8500mAh capacity, it burns in minutes
