Warning not to buy Flytouch 3 or clones.

For god's sake, whatever you do, don't buy:
Flytouch 3 superpad 2 (or any of its clones).
The support forum is filled with problems with the clones, too many to list.
The Ibex Flytouch 3 originals have very poor batteries, supposed to be 8000 mAh (2 x 4000), and are more like 2 x 1800. Most people are having troubles getting them to accept a charge at all.
Their internal GPS is locked to China, SOME people have managed to unlock them by spending a couple of hours deleting caches, rebooting, trying to re-fix the satellites, repeat until working or give up. MOST people still have not managed to unlock the GPS from China.
Market ONLY shows the free apps (something to do with fake sim numbers being too fake and illegitimate). When you are sent to market from an email, website, or even the tablets OWN auto update service, it won't show the app you are looking for.
They MAY appear to be cheap value-for-money Android tablet alternatives; trust me, they ARE NOT. Save up more money and get a proper named brand tablet.

Update:
My Flytouch 3 is no more, at about 4 days old the charging battery exploded, melting the FT3 and scorching the computer desk.
I urge anyone thinking of buying one of the Ibex Flytouch 3's, or its clones (Superpad 2 or 3) - DON'T!

People are always trying to find ways of getting a similar item for cheaper prices - I know, I did!.

Oh it's you Fluffbutt, I saw your whole song and dance on apad.tv the other day, not surprized they banned you. First you mess around with your battery config, then god only knows what else you did and then you blow up your tablet. Then claim it blew up on your desk.
Baring in mind no evidence what so ever anything really happened. Then you claimed that you burried your tablet under a load of used kitty litter, so couldn't show anyone the pictures to prove it, not surprized no one believes you. Shame on you.

i own this and for what i use it for its actually not bad updates are often and like all android devices its getting better with each one!
mind you my phone is faster ha

I got banned from there because they didn't want anyone warned of the faulty batteries, they're the most fanatic people over their FT3's.
So you assume I did a whole lot of things and it's my fault it exploded. You can assume anything.
"mess around with your battery config," - ChinaGrabber tell you to go to that forum for help, and do what's posted there. Now I'M to blame for doing just that?
It got buried under kitty litter because the fumes from burnt lithium batteries are toxic.
Shame on me?? you make assumptions!

*Mod Edit* let's keep it clean and keep the name calling to a minimum.

Alright, everybody chill out. No name callings.
@Fluffbutt: Pics, or GTFO. Seriously.
@PassingExpert: A one hit wonder from you? While I can't agree with either of you, I'd cut down on the name calling, because you aren't going to make many friends with that.

What makes you think I feel any need to prove this to anyone here?
It happened. Whether you believe it or not is irrelevant to it happening and irrelevant to me..

my 32gb iBex Flytouch3 works perfectly. Would recommend iBex Flytouch3 (real FT3) to my friends.

I bought flytouch3 from taobao.com. It cost almost 250 USD.
It may be the most expensive one in taobao, but it works good.
It can standby at least 6 hrs, and the GPS works in Taiwan.
Market can show all apps including the charged apps.

I just bought one yesterday from chinagrabber, shame on me? From what I've gathered the information this is the best and most supported chinese tablet there is..

Yes another classic example of somebody not doing their homework before buying something and then blindly attacking it with a soldering iron and hacksaw.
I'm more than satisfied with mine, it's not the fastest piece of kit, but for €150 it's certainly worth the money if you have a good working knowledge of Android and now how to fix a few quirks.

If you read around the forums, there is support for all of them. I have yet to have found an issue that couldn't be remidied in one way shape or form. I bought mine for $150 US shipped. I'm no knocking Ibex. Just merely stating that their pad isn't the only option. Open minded-ness is what I'm getting at. I've heard a lot of bad things about ChinaGrabber's return policy's etc., and that left a bad taste in my mouth. I wanted an inexpensive pad with some support on the US side (I.e warranty issues). I know I could have purchased something else, but this was what I wanted.
Sent from a rooted SuperPAD clone with Android 2.2

I've now been playing with my FT3 couple of days and I'm very happy with it, with Tim5a rom everything works, Market (it shows paid apps if I buy them from my Android cellphone). GPS works well out of the box, it's fast, Youtube, Flash all working. Battery life is very good, I don't keep it on standby as it does eat the battery even without wifi off. If you've ever used a Android phone this feels like home and the performance is the same. Resistive screen just gets a little bit more to get used to compared to capacitive but it's really responsive. Videos play very nicely, only tried 720p but all worked without a single lag.

Hey this thread scared me at start but then it looks like it ended up very good.
cuz i'm waiting for mine to arrive and i wonder is there any complete guide how to speed it up and ect..?
Thanks in advance

The best guide is to install Tim5a rom the speed increase is very good, try it stock before upgrading to see the difference.

Don't.
Market ONLY shows the free apps not to mention all the other problems (something to do with fake sim numbers being too fake and illegitimate). For YOUR OWN sake don't buy this piece. Really if you want an ANDROID tablet then save your money and buy a legitimate Android Tablet from a well known manufacturer. It's the WORST money I've ever spent in my life. PLEASE don't waste your time. And if you do and are satisfied with a cheap poor generic excuse for an android spending hours upon end of your life downloading and installing firmware, then more power to you, have fun. I just wish I would have saved my money than to have given it to scam artists or try to get help from those who need to help sale more CRAPWARE by saying its all volunteer. Really really real. (Now watch how I get called names and treated like dirt for posting this on a thread that is titled: Warning not to buy Flytouch 3 or clones.) It's crazy how easy it is to get caught up by weirdos at crappad tv who act like they are helping the world or something not following any of there own rules. Please DON'T be fooled by the posts that follow this saying how good it is. Believe me, it is not. Save a little more money even if its just 100 or 200 more. Get a LEGITIMATE ANDROID TABLET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this phone looks awesome BUT BIG FAIL

I see this phone last week, and was impressed by this MONSTER
first thing I do is taking my credit card and search on net for a good seller, i know this phone is on sale only at 12may
but my biggest surprise was his LTE capabilities.... really ?? a monster spec flagship phone... with only FDD LTE: 1800/2100/2600MHz ???
only 3 categories ?... i want this phone .... but without 800mhz (cat20) it will be a fail in many europe countries ...
and one strange thing too: this phone is announced nothere on the official website... why ?

Most xaomi phones are only meant for China, from what I've heard, and so only support Chinese bands, and nothing else.
It's quite a shame, since I'd happily buy this over the zenfone 2 if it came to the US.

1) Where did you get the idea that Asus won't release the bootloader?
2) The phone has barely been out. Give it some time for ROMs, they don't pop up overnight.
3) The P7k is also somewhat tempting, that's true [emoji14]

Got two of these bad boys coming one for me and one for a friend of mine. I should have them by the end of this month as I got them on a pre-order.

2) what site did your order from and how much did you pay
3) what if something goes wrong with it
4) what is the battery life like

1. Yes, all menus are in English when the system language is English.
2. Ordered from aliexpress for 640 USD
3. Not sure if you mean with the shipment or if you break the device.
4. Battery life could be better honestly. I can get through the day, however I'm only getting about 4 hours SOT if I'm lucky. I was able to reach that point with my Nexus 5.

Thanks for the reply
for point number 3 I meant if there are any warranty issues with the device.
for point number 4 I was looking on GSM arena and they showed the mi note as around 49 hours battery life which doesn't seem that good overall considering the mi note pro has a higher res screen.

Ah ok. Well as far as warranty goes, that would likely have to go through the 3rd party seller. So if they don't offer any type of warranty, you might be out of luck there. But yes the high res screen definitely has an impact on batter life. But it all depends on how you use your device I suppose. I can make it through the day and that is the important part for me

64 GB /4 RAM version?

hi everyone
I need to have this phone desperately. They said it will be released on April 16. However, it still not available. If anybody knows where can I buy this phone online please post the websites. I want the global 64GB version EVA-L29

I ordered the Chinese version from aliexpress - could not find global version anywhere. Waiting for it to arrive.

Be careful when buying phones from China. Onnce I had purchased a lenovo phone from aliexpress and hate it. There was tons of bloatware, Chinese fonts all over, Google apps are missing and I couldn't update the phone. I ended it up selling it for much lower price. Lesson learned

I would like to purchase the 64gb/4gb ram version as well. Does any of you know why isn't it available in Europe, precisely NL ?

I was looking at this seller as well. If you get the time post an update to let us know if you like the quality of it

My P9 from a shop on aliexpress just came yesterday... and oh yes, it is pretty awesome! Going to use it a couple days and plan on doing a extensive comparison review to my LG G5 in my series of review called "Some Guy's Review..." I did one comparing LG G5 to the S7 Edge and people seemed to appreciate it... I have no brand loyalty so it a pretty honest review IMO
I try to sum up the general user / pro-user experience... what most people run into and care about.... plus stuff I always look for that are my "musts" for things I do in my daily life...
Not getting deeply into it, here's a quick 12-hour impression:
1. Design - It's a pretty phone, I got mine in Gold because the 64GB / 4GB only comes in Gold in China (EVA-AL10 Version is Chinese Version of EVA-L29 International Dual SIM). Let's say a Sony Xperia Z5 and an Iphone had a wild sexual encounter.... the result is a Huawei P9 (Basically an all metal Z5)
2. Snappiness - This phone rocks... didn't slow down even during setup... have yet to notice it heat up either! Have to put it through my grueling non-scientific testing of playing Clash Royale... hahaha. Really though, I won't do a AnTuTu or anything like that because those tests are pretty much meaningless to real world experience usage. Hope to have more later
3. Camera - have yet to take a "real" picture with it... tried it out, seems to have a lot of custom settings and a really good "pro" mode. more to come
4. Battery - seems spot on to all recent Huawei Phones, big, long lasting (that's what she said.... )
5. EMUI - I am actually a fan of EMUI... especially with another launcher laid over (I use a HTC Sense Launcher Port). The amount of customization may annoy the regular user... but coming from having a Huawei Mate 8, I understand what you need to do to get everything working like you like. I will give more details later if it suffers from the "sleeping sickness" as I call it... this is where due to all the great battery customizations Huawei throws in, certain app notifications stop working after awhile because the app goes into hibernation and never comes out... time will only tell.
Look for a review probably Monday or Tuesday! I may even do a 3-way just for fun....!!! (3-way review... get your mind out of the gutter... hahaha)

Personally I wanted the darker gray version... and originally was going to get a P9 Plus... but when it was going to take about a 1/2 of month until it releases... I had them switch it to a regular P9.... of course, now I have to try to get a refund for the difference which they agreed to... but will be interesting to see if they give it.... :good:
Some phone sites had the white one to review... which is white ceramic and not metal... and many said that it "felt" cheap...
There is no way one could think this phone is cheap... like I said, it's like the design (rectangle) of a Z5, but thinner and made of metal..

Nice. I had the Z2 a few years back and like the 'slab' design and square feel.
Did you have to install google contact and calendar sync from the Huawei store or did all that stuff work out of the box?

It's pretty easy... use HiAPP to search google... install store, then install everything else from the store... calendar sync worked immediately... had to install contact sync apk from apkmirror... then I installed the google dialer... its not all that difficult.

This Chinese version come with original ROM or Modified by vendor? Thanks.

Could You tell us that dual sim in this model is active or not? You can talk from sim1 and receive calls from sim2?

Need help from who already bought the 3t

Hey guys, I saw on a YouTube unboxing that you get a 5€\$ promo code with the phone,so my question is, can we trade it? After I bought the phone, and I receive it, I will give you back mine. The reason that why is important to me, I have ~140000huf in my bank account, and the phone costs around 141000huf. So with that coupon, I can lower it to around 139500, So I can buy it, and I don't have to worry about getting the phone sold out, because the waiting time is already increased to 5 weeks. Thanks in advance, and I hope you can understand my poor English.

I would like to see that video. I've had 2 OPO an OP3 and now an OP3T (OP3 and OP3T were bought almost exactly at release) and I've never seen anything like that included in my stuff.

Check your PM, I sent you my code. It would have just been recycled if you hadn't mentioned it.

Needing a good replacement battery for RN 4x (snapdragon/mido)

I heard Nohon is good but I'd like to hear from anyone who has replaced the battery as to which one is good. The one for that model is the bn43 correct?

Have you found anything?I'm in search of a BN43 battery too and i have to say the whole subject is very confusing.For a start you can't really be sure that the so called original batteries are indeed original.There are more than enough excellent reviews about these but most people just "5star-ing" anyone that delivers the item on time and just 1 or 2 actually test the battery.
I heard Nohon is good too, but then i run into a review that says that it's almost as good as the original at start but then degrades rapidly in 2-3 months and its actually worse than the 2 years old original.
Also can anyone share with us how we can identify an original battery?I see some have the s/n in one row and others in two.Has it something to do with the identification of the originality of a battery?Can someone post a photo of his original BN43 or at least BN41 battery?Thanks!

Not sure. I did order a Nohon but haven't received it yet. I saw the good reviews of it but didn't know about the 2-3 month issue. We'll see. With accubattery app it says the capacity of my current battery is about 2800mah. With RR Pie and Franko kernel I'm getting more than enough charge for my needs. I didn't plan on replacing the battery immediately. I wanted the spare (Nohon) in case I wanted to replace it. I'll keep looking for an original if I can find a real one. I may end up getting the redmi Note 8. Not the pro since the pro is mediatek and I won't use one of those again since they don't release source code.

Just to make it clear by review i mean a buyers short comment for the battery.
2800 is too freaking low, maybe in 3-4 charges you'll get better result but i doubt it'll be more than 3300 mah.I think i'll go for an "authentic" and see what happens.Can you post a picture of your original battery since i can't be sure about my battery cause i bought the phone used.

My original battery is 2800 after 2 1/2 years of use. Haven't received my new battery yet. So yes the 2800 is low which is why I'm looking for a replacement. I haven't pulled the original battery yet.

Don't have a clue about quality but seems more reliable than the others.
