Hi guys

I wanna share 3 fix for A806.

1.  Names not coming up for calls or sms

Go to Concatcs > Tap on menu > More features and settings > More display options > Matching digit numbers > 7

Set that and names will match for both calls and sms.

2. Chinese character under contacts for calls and sms

Go to Concatcs > Tap on menu > More features and settings > More display options > Location > Untick/untap those 2 options

No more Chinese character kohkoh

3. Ussd is cut half (cannot see full)

Download this file and flash it using twrp or cwm.

I also got this phone from onegadget. After spending few hours searching about this phone, one user from Xda Developer forum said this phone is not Android, but using Aliyun. He noticed this upon installing Xposed. I also noticed bad english translation throughout this phone and also spelling errors. Is that normal? Apart from that USSD bug, sometimes the notification center crashed that makes me to restart the phone since it showed looping error messages. So I wondering does anyone experienced same problem?

Anyway I went to the onegadget the next day after I bought the phone. Right when I hand it over to the technician (he even not check it yet), he said "software problem?". I was like wtf is every A806 sold on this store has that notification error? Then he flashed that phone to standard factory ROM using TWRP. After that there is no spelling error or bad english translation except that ussd bug and chinese character (Player Tutorial app lol). My advise to people who want to get this phone, right after you buy it pls take it to the service center and get it flashed

Make sure your hp is rooted. Download flashify from playstore. And flash the ussd fix zip using flashify.

Hi guys!

Thank god I found this thread. I've been searching extra infos before buying the phone. From what I know, yes there are 2 versions of it. Both versions has LTE mode, but the 1st model (A808T) does not support Malaysian 3G (WCDMA), only meant for China's 3G network (TD-SCDMA). Do NOT buy that model or else you'll stuck with 2G network when there is no 4G around. The A806, 2nd model, is meant for international market     

A806 support both Malaysian 3G and 4G


Beware, there are sellers out there selling the A808T, I've been to 3 shops, they wont let me test my LTE simcard. Hehehe thank god I saw sitescope's post. Went to I-Distribution in Low Yat Plaza.

2 ways to know which one is A806

1. Look at the back, you can see spec, WCDMA written there.

2. Want to double confirm? Sumbat your LTE simcard. Normal sim size, no need to cut to mini or micro.

If they refused, dont buy!
The salesperson, Sam, is super friendly. He said can try and everything. Call him up if you wanna get one.

The unit from I-Distribution is already rooted, makes things easier for me to debloat sampah apps   

Final words, trusted seller or not, check the network using your own sim!

been using since friday... flash custom rom from needrom...
very good phone and price too cheap for it...
waiting for tempered glass and frosted case for make it feel premium...
battery is not that great, not like a880 battery(can get more SOT)
now waiting for someone at xda make AOSP rom for this phone...

Hi, i just bought it yesterday, for my mum actually. But then, I feel regret a bit becoz she is a Samsung user before. So, im afraid lenovo ui is a bit difficult for her.

By the way, the performance is awesome. No lag at all. But there is some problem that I found so far

-difficult to monitor battery life. This phone doesnt have battery graph at settings, so need to install 3rd party apps (gsam battery monitor/battery monitor widget, but stop responding many times)

-camera is bad in low light condition.

-ussd code cannot expand (only 1 line when use *118#), so I cannot read the content. Hopefully someone have the solution.

-heated up easily when using video recording (hotter than playing subway surf)

Min temp: 28
Max.        : 40

In the pics is my battery stats. Idle overnight and then heavy use with gaming, browsing and downloading

~rooted with Chinese twrp recovery

Yeah check needrom.com

now already got some cooker that make aosp with this phone...already try it from yesterday...quite smooth and good...still miss the lenovo double tap to wake function....

HAHA. Uhmm do you have any experience in flashing using SP Flash Tools?

for the new aosp rom... just install mobileuncle and twrp recovery... can sideload using twrp for flash the rom... easy no need sptool...
but read careful how to do it...
btw now using the aosp v2.0....now can use xposed with a806...
