After their initial release which saw some of the required Elephone P8000 Source Code released a few months ago, Elephone have today released the full Elephone P8000 Source Code required for devs to build their own roms, hopefully stable Marshmallow roms or properly ported existing roms such as Cyanogen CM12.1 etc to the P8000.

One thing that has let Elephone down a little in the past and not won them any favours has been the bugginess of their roms, often requiring fixes to the fixes to get things working as they should, now is the chance for these things to be put right and with hope make Elephone see how important a dev community could be to the success of their forthcoming handsets such as the Vowney and the P9000 and force their hand to release the code for these phones as well.

The Elephone P8000 Source Code can be found on github here

The P8000 can be purchased on lilited sale for just $153.99 here

To those of you that like to dabble with your phones or the more hardcore rom devs out there, I say let the fun begin and lets see what you can create.

Many phone users are now demanding more battery life from their handsets, we have seen ultra slim handsets come and go but the growing trend is for increased battery life at the expense of a few extra mm of width.

Oukitel have today sent over a video of the new OUKITEL K6000, the Oukitel K6000 features 9V/2A quick charge technology to allow the 6000mAh battery to fully charge in under 2 hours.

For the video they have also set up two OUKITEL K6000’s one is charged using their new 9V/2A charger, whilst the other is charged up using a standard iPhone 5v/1A charger.

The video gives a good comparison of the differences of standard charging vs flash charging, with the new system appearing to be around 3 times quicker.

Oukitel state that the battery in the K6000 is a 6000mAh unit, this is a lot of charge for a handset, hopefully unlike some other china based phone manufacturers this will be a true reflection of the actual amount of charge the phone can hold.

It the 6000mAh capacity does prove to be true and the charge times shown in the video are correct it should make for a phone that will give a lot of usage between its ultra quick charges.

Please check out the video for the Oukitel K6000 featuring 9V/2A quick charge and as always any questions or comments can be left below.

Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 may be seeing a competitor in it’s midst, with MTK releasing it’s latest “MTK Pump Express Plus” that boasts fast charging as well. It has a charging output voltage of 9V but output voltage of 7V is also provided.

The first mobile phone carrying this technology will be Koobee Halo 3 while MTK has released Pump Express Plus for MT6595, MT6732 and other charging technology platforms. This is a model HF-QC-084 charger and has an MT6732 platform for mounting the first mobile phone, Koobee Halo 3 as mentioned. The charger offers an input of 100-240V and is compatible with the global grid voltage. It offers an output charging voltage of 5V 1.67A(8035W), 7V 1.67A(11.69W), and 9V 1067A(15.3W). It stands at one of the fastest MTK phone charger with it’s capability to charge from 0 to 75% battery in 30 minutes for 2060 mobile battery; charging for five minutes allows call time for up to 2 hours.

In terms of security, MTK and power management chip solution providers offer a range of standard specification dialog. The adapter offers port overload protection, system temperature protection, battery voltage protection, battery fuse protection and a comprehensive approach to cell phone safety.

Pump Express Plus MTK is designed to charge 45% faster than chargers available on the market for smart phones, tablet PCs and other mobile devices. It can delivery power faster to batteries, shortening charging time. There is a big market for charging technology and with that Pump Express Plus is offering, Qualcomm is not the only competitor that should be worried. Mobile and tablet PC users should be looking forward to seeing more fast charging technologies in the market soon!
