Activity is a bit low on Chinese flashing forums, but I found someone did CWM 6.0.4.7, however the comments seem to indicate that it was not successful

Thanks joytest for the info..
After viewing ur post on n7100 thread about switching to mediapad x1, i googled its spec and impressed. hope this model become popular and many custom rom or tweaks will available soon.
im new owner of mediapad x1 lte. buy from directd for rm 1199 without free gift.
tQ all.

currently the custom rom still on 4.2? or there's custom rom on 4.4?

Yes there's sp out of the box but it won't stop fingerprints
Tempered glass sp won't fit perfectly… The top left and right edges will have some sort of small gap left behind. All the sellers blame the screen not flat

All ROM still in 4.2. Got news in China 4.4 will be released for this device. We just have to wait

Today is on horse power test.. 100% battery on 7am.. Now already got 2hours 45min SOT and still have 58% juice.. This phone works like a boss, gonna be my favorite gadget. another thing I like is that it charges quite fast.. Everything is working great on this phone, money was well spent.

Haha we need more good and reasonable China phone, tablet.. This will make it more competitive and good for all of us..

Note that as of now, probably due to lack of init.d support, root is not 100%.

Meaning, some things can't be done like Xposed, scripting, and even Swiftkey languages are not permanent.

Things like Titanium work fine though.

Glory x1 how to enter engineering mode? First, enter the operating system dial "Dialer" screen, enter * # * # 2846579 # * # * to quickly enter the Android engineering test mode

4 hours 28 minutes SOT and still have 36% juice..

Data and WiFi on all the time, email push sync, no limitation of apps running in background, Internet browsing, mp3 listening, gaming a bit..

do u all use any bluetooth device with this phablet? Seems too big to be used as a phone and I've used Z Ultra before, this is even bigger.

Any recommendations for a bluetooth device that performs like a mini phone?

Asus used to have a companion device with one of their Memopads about 2 years ago which was a mini bluetooth dialer. Otherwise make.believe SB520 headset I think.

I propose a Jabra Tag.

sony SBH50 maybe, quite cheap and practical, with more budget, get SBH52. as for me i'm still trying to get used with it.. same goes to me, this feels very much bigger than XZU.. dunno why.. fact its just 0.6" bigger, but this feel like a tablet than a phone.. but XZU still feels like a phone

Thanks for the recommendations, still thinking whether to get this as a replacement or a secondary device.. have been using more pocketable phones since I sold my Z Ultra ie. Vibe X, Xiaomi Mi3 and now LG G2.

Testing init.d now....hope I succeed.

Can anyone tell me if i am getting 3G version, will there any difference than LTE in terms of software and firmware?

I rather get the LTE version since picee won't be much different. Software and hardware almost same..

mm someone offered me direct swap with my current Z1. still considering

Jackie better go for LTE. LTE is needed for such entertainment phablet :-)

Haha not really important for me since I am using unifi mostly. Plus I got limited data quota
