QUOTE(MaGNiFiCo @ Jan 10 2013, 11:18 PM) so how was it so far ericmaxman ? Okay, initial impressions of this phone is not bad at all maybe you can put the steps on how to root. we'll try to contact TS to update it at first page The weight of the phone is on the light side, but coupled with the smooth back, it can be a bit slippery at times, as well as attracting lots of finger prints. Now on to the screen. Compared to my Ideos X5, this one has a less pixel density (246 vs 233 ppi), but makes up by having a much better display technology (IPS). Viewing angles and colors are indeed top notch. The screen has a screen protector preapplied, so you dont have to find one. Also, the screen protector does attract fingerprints again On to the software part. As you all know, the BP2 comes with Android 4.0, more specifically, 4.0.4. Ninetology has added some subtle changes that I really appreciate. One of them would be the top toggle buttons. Not all stock ROMs has those toggle buttons, and seeing those here is a good welcome. Then there's the audio profiles. Those who has used non-smartphones in the past would sure know the pain when moving to Android. "Where's the silent mode, where's the outdoor mode...?" Yup, those are the questions we all asked (well I know I did) when moving to Android. But this feature makes a return on the BP2. Then after that, there's the Schedule Power On and Shutdown. This is a good feature, as a lot of folks leaves their phone charging/left on the whole night. And with this feature, you can have the phone shut down at a preset time, and power up at another preset time. Cool feature, I must say. General usage of the phone has been pleasing. Initially, I wasn't expecting too much from the MediaTek MT6577 chipset, but it does manage to provide smooth user interaction so far. I replaced the stock Go-Launcher with my favourite Nova Launcher, which is far more smoother and looks more stock-ish. I rooted my phone with this pack. Just download, unzip and run the Runme.bat file. Do make sure that USB Debugging has been enabled (Settings -> Developer Options -> USB Debugging). After that, just connect your phone via the USB cable to your comp, and run the file. Follow the on screen instructions (Select Normal), then when asked to restore your phone, just select to Restore. Then your phone will reboot. Once it has rebooted, you'll find SuperSU in app drawer. You can install Root Explorer to start digging into your phone (I wont be held responsible for any misfortune that happens to you). Here's some tips once you've gotten your phone. If you have rooted yours, you can proceed by deleting the Go-Launcher related widgets and apps, QQ browser, QQ Doctor (antivirus). Also, I've checked from CPU Master, the scaling is "hybrid", and from what I saw, it switches speeds from 1001mhz to 245mhz only. No scaling in between. Battery life has been decent so far too. Hope my short review helps you to get familiar with your new BP2. Also, ask away if you have any queries at all |

And onto some niggles I found while using the BP2.
Firstly, no volume wake! If you're used to custom ROMs or some earlier phones, volume wake is a very useful feature. I'll probably need to do some digging around to try to enable this. Then there's the Youtube app which allows up t HQ playback only. Not exactly a big issue, really. After that, you'll also realise that there's no light sensor, and the brightness setting is fixed. I have mine set at 20-30%, and it's still very much visible (thanks IPS!) I'll continue to update my findings with this phone as time goes by. |
