hi guys,
finally i've received my V3.
the first thing i've done is looking at rom/firmware, but i think there's something strange...
i've found:
_baseband dated 2014/02/15
_kernel 3.4.5 with no date informations
_build version 1.0.1
how is it possible that they distribute 1.0.1 with updated baseband?
maybe is it a newer version but they wrote 1.0.1 accidentally
[attachment=903]

now i'll try to make a backup (a flashable one)...any suggestion for the method?
mtkdroid (prepare block for flash tool) is the best one?

At this point. I strongly suggest you don't do some flashing. But many people waiting this ROM and preloader. If you get it backed up, upload it megaupload or something similar for the people. The current opinion is that this is possible a new batch of inew v3 with possibly some different hardware.

For backup, use my tutorial. Gizbeat put some video now there as well

hi NexusTrix
thanks for reply

well...i've just finished backing up my device... i learn quickly
when i connected the phone to pc with mtkdroid, i could see more infos about software

here the infos:
[attachment=904]

and i think we can say 99% it's a new updated software, right?

Yes. Version # (1.0.1, 1.02 etc) means little. Also it different name (inewv3 instead of cxq). The important thing is that kernel date.

If you can upload that. Many people waiting I think.

this be 1.0.5 and they made a mistake with the numbering.

i strongly advise you not to try and flash your phone if it came from a new production batch and looks like this one.
chances are high you will brick it.
as already mentioned it seems there is some different hardware involved. lets not hope the changed to inferior parts because of the high demand.
i am expecting mine this coming or the week after, and i am anxious if i am also going to receive one from the new production. all signs say yes.
there have been some people already how have soft-bricked their new production inew's by trying to flash 1.0.4 on them. luckily enough, the mtk phones seem to be quite resistant to hard-brick...

oh, and if you do not mind and have the possibility,
could you please check if OTG, NFC and Air-gesture all work? (Air gesture did not work with any firmware so far)
thanks a bunch!

why update
if you have last firmware

So where can we download this rom? :p

hi guys,
here i am
and i just finished uploading the rom
one you can flash with SP Flash Tool

to answer to some question in previous posts:
_the package came with no otg cable
_there are no settings for air gesture
_i don't have nothing to test NFC with
so i'll update my discovery probably next days

right now, hardware seems to be exactly the same
honestly i've to say this device is very cool
now i want to test battery life

i think it's time to move to a STICKY THREAD with this firmware
