Flash with PhoenixSuite (tutorial)

Please report any problem with this firmware, I can't verify this custom firmware works as I don't have a Onda V973 to test it.

@Admin

Thx so much for your great work

When do you think we will get 4.2.2 for V973-V1 because I think the Rom for V973 not compatible with V973

I hope I'll get reply form you soon

Flashed with PhoenixSuit and everything seems good. Nice to get rid of that pre-loaded software in Chinese that I can't use.... YouTube app still will not display video and some others like Camera360 still crash but that is not the fault of this firmware. Hopefully this will be corrected when they release 4.2.2 v3.0 for v973. Thanks for your work on this admin

Hello there,

Thanks for the good work. I don't know anyone is getting this. I have a problem of overly sensitive touchscreen. When on horizontal orientation the buttons seems to press itself and the annoying screen capture keeps on capturing the screen. I change screen protector twice now and still has the same problem. I am back to stock Rom running normally now. I hope someone have a solution to this.

Thanks.
