  1. Gud morning prof

    …For now there's no problem o buh I noticed dat my lucky patcher and freedom is no longer doing in app purchases for me after I changed my phone… So I wanted knw if der is a specific or modded playstore dat am surpose to install so dat It will start working

  2. I don't even think if my own headache have a solution. my phone's data like videos, pictures, keyboard language and Dictionary data always got deleted each time I plugged my phone with usb in my laptop to transfer file.

  4. My Oukitel K4000 battery drains very fast and overhears when 3G internet is on, charging the phone is quite slow like 3-4 hours. What are the solutions to these problems of K4000?

    • Many reasons may result into why your device battery drain fast but first of all, reduce your screen brightness. By default it is set to adjust according to your sorrounding.

      Also, go to Settings > Battery. If you find apps on this screen that are using up more battery than they should be, close them by tapping Force stop.

      It over heat because of the processor which is 1Ghz and I believe you opened different apps at thesame time. Just close any app you are not using,or when you are done using an app, close it completely.

      Use another Android charger to test how fast it will charge that device

    • You might be having Ram problem or Hardisk problem. If you know where to locate your ram, carefully remove it from its board, and clean it on a white clean cloth. (not with water ooo, but a dry white cloth). Then insert it back then reboot your system.

      If it doesn't work, then you need to run Hard disk test.

  15. I try to upgrade my infinix hot note to lollipop, but the device bricked, and cannot on again, and my system will not dictate it when it is plugged tro usb. I try ever thing and it seems not to work. Please my dear Jomi prof help a friend out. Or anyone that had succeeded in such a challenge should help me out God bless.

    • If in the process of upgrading, you mistakenly shake the cable while the upgrade is still ongoing, then it is a complete brick. Since your system doesn't detect it again, I'll suggest you locate the closest CarlCare center and they'll fix it for you.

    • @Jomi I did not such thing, as a matter of fack i was not close to the phone and the system when the process was running. Care services is talking about months process now. I dont know what to do. Please someone should help.

      Unfortunately I'm not closer to whre you are. You still best bet of fixing it is still CarlCare. Just excercise patience and give it to them to fix it bro.

    My pc isn't detecting the device either. 🙁

    • Obviously your device is bricked if the only thing it displays is Android logo. However, I don't know the last application you installed before you went to bed but I'll advice you boot it into safe mode and uninstall the application. Then reboot your device again.

      Select “Data usage“.
      >>Tap the “Menu” Menu icon icon located at the upper-right corner.
      Select “Restrict background data“, then tap “OK” to turn background data off.

    • Hello Bolarge717,
      It appears you cache for that app is full and need to be cleared.
      First, navigate to Settings on your device.
      Go to Applications > Application manager
      Swipe left until you find the All tab.
      Scroll down to the app that's causing problems and tap on it.
      Here you will find the Clear data and Clear cache options.

      Clear cache is the option you should start with. It will get rid of saved data that allows apps to load a little quicker or stop working when you launch them.

    • its still giving the same has stopped workiong after trying what you said… funny enough this apps writing has stopped work perfectly on othe version of p9 4.4 .. but the problem is general to 4.2

    • Reboot the phone first.
      After the reboot, tap the phone icon to launch the app.
      Once the error pops up, tap OK and immediately tap the Phone icon again.
      Repeat the process two or three times.
