H9008 is Mlais MX69T Pro OEM, not MX69 Pro

[GizBeat]

After many bricks, it's been determined that the H9008 is actually Mlais MX69T Pro OEM. Not MX69 Pro.

The MX69 Pro scatter is completely different than Mlais MX69T and H9008. I tried flashing anyways in many different fashions and with different flashing tools.

The MX69T firmware flashes flawlessly and great news that it's being updated regularly.

Thanks to tinp23 for the clue.

Thanks for the info. That confusion has probably caused a lot of people all sorts of headaches.
...and now my only 2 questions.
1) Is it as stable as the stock rom which has been pretty good so far?
2)Does it make a big difference with regards to battery life? I know this phone can do so much better than I've been getting out of it.

Wow really? No wonder it wouldn't even turn on after flashing an MX69 Pro rom. I'm still not sure if I should keep mine as the battery life isn't quite where I'd like it to be either - it's about half to 2/3 the life of my Note II. Will definitely give this a go though.

Gizbeat, how did you flash the mx69t firmware onto the h9008? I've been trying and I can't seem to figure it out. I can use Windows or Mac. A few steps on how to do it would be great, if you have the time!

Yeah, I figured as much. The spec list for the device at Merimobiles made mention of NFC capabilities and it is well publicized that the 69 Pro had no such functionality -- it couldn't be but the OEM 69T. Thanks for the information.

Based on the noise over at the Mlais fora, I would say the 69T Pro seems to be more troublesome, battery-wise, than its lesser brother. The last update that I checked on, -- could be the last or penultimate release -- based on forum comments, made little difference to battery life and appeared to be the cause of sudden shutdowns. In any event, Mlais is said to be working on an imminent release which is to remedy all these issues. *crosses fingers*

I were afraid that I had totally bricked my phone after flashing an MX69 Pro rom to it since it as you say don't give even the smallest sign of life.

Hi friends!!

I have a h9008 and battery is poor, very very poor...becose the problem isn't firmware, the problem is battery, is only 1750mha. Rear battery in h9008 I see 6,66wh.

How to convert watt-hour (Wh) to milliampere-hour (mAh)

Q = 6,66Wh × 1000 / 4,2V = 1585mAh <----------This is the real capacity of our battery in h9008!!!
