    has there been any progress getting apps on this phone? the guy who was supposed to have a filter for it told me it's not ready yet..... i've successfully suspended the browser etc... btw i've had quite a number of times that the phone freezes up on me and needs to be restarted by holding down the power key for 10 seconds. has anyone else had this problem? also i noticed that assisted dialing has it's moods....

      NEC I haven't had that freezing problem. And we're kind of stuck in terms of apps.

        And i've managed to load magisk onto the flip phone via a patched boot.img i used from the firmware using the Magisk app on my Fire tablet and fastboot. But i also can't seem to get magisk app to work on this phone.

            EnriqueMcquade Can you create an update zip to install the Magisk app and sign it with the cert included in the zip you shared? adb reboot sideload gets into sideload mode

                EnriqueMcquade It's too complicated for me, and possibly the recovery is going to think the zip is not verified.

                  EnriqueMcquade Thanks! Do you mind giving instructions ( I want to try on a Cricket and T-Mobile version)

                    the t408dl can be filtered at TAG

                      hk675 South Florida told me that Purifone made a filter for the T408dl, which is available, and they are coming out with one for the 4058 phones soon. I am assuming it is available at most locations.

                        I will have to check with my local TAG location. But I'm assuming that means you can flash custom firmware on this phone, maybe someone on the forum can make a fully kosher option like the Sonim XP5

                        @ZTEGuy#7208 You can, and people are working on it.

                        The person I spoke to said he is pretty sure it's a custom firmware (although some filters aren't btw - like lg classic)

                          Purifone exclusively makes custom firmwares to kasher phones

                            ZTEGuy That's why he said he is pretty sure it's a custom firmware

                                hey peeps,
                                picked this device up at someones request

                                a few of us are working on a custom recovery for it, and unblocking app installs. hope to have some updates soon
