Mobile/Smart Phones by stefan @ 2014-06-13

With the 5.7’’ X8 model, iOCEAN has chosen to go with a much more professional look by using a combination of metallic alloy and Gorilla Glass III for the front and thicker Asahi Glass for the back.

ToDo application for writing notes is also included:

 

 

Same goes for the flashlight (torch) application:

 

 

We will have to work with the Update application when a new and bug-fixed ROM is available. This application works only with the stock recovery manager so if we have a custom recovery flashed, we will have to flash the stock one back before proceeding:
