Release notes 20171011

Sat Jul 15, 2017 3:04 pm

Since Blackview doesn't post release notes, I thought this might help those who are thinking about upgrading to 20170708

Changes 20171011
Security patch level unchanged
Baseband updated to moly.lr11.w1603.md.mp.v35.4.p27 2017/08/25
Kernel 3.18.15 recompiled Oct 10, 2017
Build number unchanged
Fixed: touchscreen driver - no more lags and reboot!

Changes 20170708
Security Patch level updated to June 2007
Baseband updated to moly.lr11.w1603.md.mp.v35.4.p26 2017/07/06
Kernel 3.18.35 recompiled Jun 08, 2017
Build number rolled back to 20170412 (not sure why?)
Google OOBE on factory reset (seem to be new for this release)
Additional bundled Google software (presumably to satisfy google certification)
Menu button changed to task switcher in line with Google guidelines, presumably to satisfy google certification
Fixed: Bluetooth and wifi driver fixes, seems a lot more stable (no more Bluetooth drops or Wifi "no internet")
Broken: Bluetooth switches itself off on reboot
Broken: Wifi Captive Portal Error (redirected IP causes a security error in Captive Portal Browser)

Changes 20160517
Glove Mode removed
Broken: Touchscreen driver buggy (lags and reboots when pressed continuously for too long, also triggers reboots during phone call if screen activated with ear pressed against screen or in pocket) Note: FT5406_MT touch panel only?

Changes 20161216
Android 7.0 Update
Baseband supports 4G+3G! Yay!
Broken: GPS time (in GPS Apps) off by 1 hour. System clock is not affected (contributed by BV6000)
Broken: Bluetooth and Wifi Authentication Error/Disconnects (Fixed in 20170708)
Broken: Default Launcher stops (workaround: install a different launcher)

-----

Please feel free to contribute other changes/bugs/fixes below and I will try to integrate into the OP. I will also try to update this thread on new firmware releases (or until I throw the phone away... the touchscreen bug is really annoying...)

The date below the hour still appears sometimes in small

Sometimes I also change the size of the hour from big to small

I noticed that when you update it, it changes the screen lock image. I get the feeling that if I leave the original screen lock image, the sensitivity of the fingers improves, that if I change the photo by mine. There seems to be worse sensitivity
Before if I pressed for 15 seconds the phone was restarted, now if I press the screen for 40 seconds, it is still restarting

Gps time is still one hour less

Maybe a factory reset will help you.

I was seeing the same thing, but hard to say it's blackview's fault. The latest Facebook update seems to be better.

Blackview Admin: I did a clean install, this is not a factory reset problem.

I don't have that problem. Did you do a bad flash and lose your MAC address?

You can check your MAC address in Settings->About Phone->Status
