With the E4810.
Is there an easy way to disable the Video playback feature with adb or alike?

He put togther a beautiful spreadsheet, but seems its not an option?

It’s an activity within the gallery app. You could only block specific activities with root access (which I don’t know how to get on the E4810).

I think the e4811 is the one thats easy to root

Yup. It’s MTK

so how can it be rooted?

There’s a program called MTKClient that you can use to pull the stock boot image, unlock the bootloader, and flash back the rooted boot image.

Yeah ik. Never got it to connect though

Sounds like theres no easy way to block it without installing a 3rd party filter.

I don’t know if this is as easy as you want, but you can probably pull the gallery APK off the phone, remove the video activity from it, and install it.
If you can send me the APK, I can try modding it for you.

Probably won’t work because you can’t install over a system signed app without a system signature

so uninstall it and change the package name of the mod, or uninstall it and install another gallery app with video removed.

That would work.

I can try to pull the package and share it here.

Once you change the package name it wont be connected the camera any more

I checked the gallery on my DuraXe e4830, and I wasn’t able to mod it.
maybe try to find another gallery app that works with buttons, maybe try to pull one off of a different phone.
anyone want to share the gallery app of whatever phones you have?

how do you put it into brom?

Didn’t work on windows. I used bkerler’s LiveDVD and did it in Linux. You need MTKClient to unlock the bootloader, but once it’s unlocked you can flash with fastboot

The system is read only, so if you want to make any system modifications you’ll need to flash them. Mods with root won’t go through
