hey guys,

I just want to introduce us to one of the new smartphones in town, that's the Letv le 1s, "the le pronounced as lè"

Specification:

It it is a full HD 5.5" screen with thin bezel, though it still has black borders around the screen but that's almost available on all Chinese phones running lollipop.

Surpports dual Sim, dual standby

Also has fingerprint scanner on the back which supports 360° unlock in 0.5s, and it's mirrored which makes usable when using the rear camera for selfies, the fps is also serves as a button to take pictures.

It's has a 3gb of RAM to run applications and heavy games smoothly and a 32gb of ROM, and doesn't support external SD card,

It has a 13mp isocell Samsung rear camera and a 5mp front camera

It runs letv version of Android EUI, based on Android lollipop 5.0.2

It has a USB type C port which also supports OTG,

And also supports fast charge, hence the charger output is 9v/2.7A, and 5v/2A, and d phone is equipped with a whooping 3000mah nonremovable battery, which on normal usage should serve a day and for a heavy user would require a powerbank but 3000mah battery still worth it

Now to the chipset, it is equipped with one of the latest mediatek chipset mtk6795T(helio X10) clocked at 2.2ghz with GPU PowerVR G6200 @ 700Mhz, also with this chipset, the phone is capable of making slow motion recording and also 4k recording, also support mediatek copilot

All this enclosed in an aluminium chassis which gives the phone a premium look and feel and only cost between $170 and $210.

It's a phone worth buying.

I'll be giving u updates as we progress and how Google play store can also be installed, and if interested in joining our letv le 1s what's app group, kindly drop in mobile number.

Masterpiece.

seen the phone online and watched detailed reviews on YouTube and its a well designed phone. One guy complained of the screen cracking on him thrice after it fell from a table height...hmm-mm, so disappointing, when compared to other phone of not too high in spec.
I was at computer village today and from my observation, the phone design is the same with Huawei Mate7, Infinix Note 2 is also a copy of it. Huawei is more premium in design and sturdier than Infinix note 2. Letv is also premium in design and its basically the same phone as Huawei Mate 7.
After seeing the Mate 7 with it's spec sheet, it's a powerful phone and it's worth owning.

I'm using the phone and i'm enjoying it.

Y not go for the stock rom so u can get constant updates, I can put u thru on how to install Google play store on it

Phone looks good with impressive specs. The name though, letv le 1s lol

I was about paying for this on aliexpress, not until I discovered doller isnt too favorable, I dont hav much so will go for the 3gb ram/16gig rom ,.

Now am following this thread and would love to know how the battery fairs upon usage, also does it get heated up while using? And pls on a daily usage, browsing with H+ and of cos being online all through, how many hrs are we looking at before phone shut down?

I have watched close to 10 of its review videos on YouTube.

hassanAde:

Does it come pre installed with the stock rom or the one with playstore? Or users are the ones to flash the rom with playstore?

greenhulk:

Yeah the name but interesting, Letv is one of the largest media company in China, digression into phone manufacturing will b a plus for them.

samintegrity:

D stock rom has no playstore pre-installed but u get updates to the Rom unlike the internal version with app drawer button

No playstore?then what is the alternative?

I think dis is an opportunity for me to explain the 2 types of rom that r available for this device.

Letv le 1s is being manufactured to thrive in China only and built with a lollipop version of Android (5.0.2) to b precise modified by the company to EUI 5.5, only supports 2 languages, that is English and Chinese and also doesn't have play store pre-installed like the xiaomis running MIUI, but due to international acceptance, they decide to make another version of rom which supports more languages with playstore also pre-installed but lacks OTA support and also some features r missing on this ROM, e.g the IR blaster and the QR Scanner.

But in Android world, nothing is impossible, u can get playstore running on the stock version of the rom and also get updates anytime it's available.

Still interested in the what's app group, kindly drop ur number here.

Have a lovely day guys.

Good, I just added u guys to the newly created what sap group for our lovely fone where we can share ideas

For those interested in the stock ROM, here's the download link: http://www.mediafire.com/?gyhzhb1pa3pkucy

D link to download the unofficial but with multilingual and no Ota support: http://www.mediafire.com/?j1qur21814hm0lb



How to install official stock ROM :

Download the zip file from the first link above, rename to update.zip

Place in root of memory of phone

Switch off phone

Boot into recovery by pressing volume down and power button simultaneously, do not release until u c the boot animation,

Check on clear data, this also checks system update and clear data

Click start, and wait till fone reboots

Yeah! You on on official stock ROM with access to OTA.

i found rooting guide for the phone but i couldn't figure-out how to copy files to the root of the phone using adb.

Adb driver is meant for ur fone to b recognised by ur pc, u install Adb on ur pc by so doing enabling commands and instructions to b sent to d fone via pc and vise versa
