WARNING: Use these firmwares at your own risk!

__________________________

A very useful trick to try for the "date problem" in Mmobile (thx to redz for the tip!):

You guys still having "time&date" problem when switching from mmobile to android?

try this:
in android, change your timezone to (GMT 0) casablanca then adjust the time to your actual time. then your done!

unfortunately there are some steps...

1st of all...you need to change the language to English or else
then you have to activate the wifi in the options and choose a wifi....like always!

fantastic guys works a treat on my M8 RE browsing is nice and smooth

your all doing a fab job

can we call with this version?

an easy question,

have i to reinstall everytime a new fw, if i like to use the newest android?? or is it enough to change the mpatch??

@5nickers Nope, the Microphone still does not work.

@ben yes.

I noticed a very funny fact: The more the M8 gets hotter , the more it runs smoother

p.s.: animation can be deselected in system propertys...its working smoother with that too!

The app ProLauncher (?) for Android makes the interface smooth, too. You can download the app on the internet without paying something. Just google a little bit...

"1. This ROM requires Meizu official mdroid.img to work, please make sure you have it under /Disk folder."

where can i get "Meizu official mdroid.img" ?

and if i try to build a dual boot firmware, i get the message "Your inject content exceeded max space of Main Area. That may overwrite into next area, Check manual to prevent this."

Thanks for posting, I have updated the first post!

This is getting exciting! Havent used much Android since my X1 has gone to retirement, -but this is looking to become way better than xperoid soon :P

might be a stupid question, but how many cases do you know about where the DISK got damaged or even lost?

i would love to try out the latest android build here but that warning has got some effect on me :S

by me nothing lost und nothing demaged .It works great , take all the images in the Disk and update thats it .
