Learn! Explay power and Explay Power bank is two different phones, the first was released earlier, but now it is withdrawn from sale, and the second, on this moment, is produced and delivered to stores. But, the settings of the engineering menu, they are similar, and the login code is the same.

And, in principle, the basic settings described in this article can be suitable for many Chinese phones.

It took two days and two sleepless nights to write this article and tinkering with the settings, the phone was flashed twice (plus two times unsuccessfully using the MultiPort program) ...

Using this menu, you can increase or decrease the volume during a conversation, increase or decrease the maximum volume of the call, audio player, sound of the keys, set up work with the battery, enable automatic recording of conversations, and much more.
Code for entering the engineering menu: *39*3646#

ATTENTION!

There are known cases of complete failure of Explay Power phones after " naughty crooked handles", which " pushing something there"and after that the phone completely stopped turning on and working, sometimes it even becomes impossible to reflash it and all that remains is to carry it to the service center, and this is nerves + time + money, and no guarantees from the service center.
Do not change unfamiliar settings if you are not sure!

FOR ALL ACTIONS WITH YOUR PHONE, ONLY YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE!

The Explay Power phone, although discontinued ( it's a pity! the flashlight is conveniently turned on for him, regardless of the battery charge and the phone is on), but it was not so expensive ( 1950 rubles about a year ago), so you can experiment in principle, if not a pity ...
But I did NOT have any special irreparable problems, so see for yourself.

If the phone still does not turn on after these manipulations, or other serious problems arise, then try reflashing it again according to this instruction on the forum.explays.ru forum, this will reset the engineering menu settings, BUT, for this, in the settings FlashTool you will have to tick the " Format Fat" (third check mark), which will lead to IMEI RESET that we don't need.

And you can restore it only from a previously made backup, but at the same time, the settings of the engineering menu will be restored again - a vicious circle ...

All SMS in the phone, in this case they are also deleted and the phone memory is erased ( although there is memory there ... 145 kilobytes, but nevertheless, I store a beautiful background of desktops in it, so that in case of problems with the flash drive, the standard background is not set - I recommend doing the same).

To do this, first remove the SIM-cards, and preferably the USB flash drive. Find this item in the phone settings menu, select " Restore all", enter the phone code ( default 0000), and all settings will be reset, as well as SMS, the contents of the phone memory, contacts in the phone memory - all this will be deleted again, but the IMEI will remain, which is what we need.

And before any actions with the phone, MAKE BACKUP using the program FlashTool, the instruction is also on the forum, at the link above!

As for the audio settings. Please note that in the Explay Power engineering menu, some values, for example, for the parameters " Volume"and others, numeric keypad you cannot enter, only with the joystick - with the " Up" and " Way down".

Accordingly, if you start changing the number from " 0 "the numbers will be even if you" scroll down "vice versa from 255 , then the numbers will be odd - it's okay.
If you see a value here, for example " 123 ", but only 124 or 122 , 120 , or vice versa, then it's okay - choose the closest value.

Or you can perverted - "scroll" to zero or 255 , and then back to the desired value, but it makes no sense to do so. Plus minus 1 -2 it will not play a role here, especially since I in general came up with these values ​​from the bulldozer, by trial and error, maybe somewhere I was mistaken, but everything suits me in the phone ( Almost all).

Apply settings in the engineering menu: enter a new value (or all values ​​within one item), press " SET", go back a couple of points using the" Back", then the phone will ask: Update Parameter?- we press " Yes", and after that either exit the menu completely, or continue setting.

Akhtung! After some settings, the phone may need to be rebooted ( turn off and turn on), but in the case of audio settings, in the vast majority of cases this is not necessary.
Just after turning on the phone again, the phone may turn on, it is better to check this by calling it and using an audio player.

And further: " Max analog gain" and " step" in " 16 Level Setting"- always the same for all parameters in the current mode: microphone, radio, speaker, etc., it is enough to change it once in any of the points of each mode. It affects the sixteen-level volume control, and, in fact, the overall volume of all ( or almost all, here I myself am a little incomprehensible) items of each of the three modes.

Don't be confused!

Black font, next to the names of the parameters - the new values ​​that I set when setting up the phone are indicated.

[In blue, in square brackets] - the standard values ​​of the parameters are indicated, which are set immediately after flashing Explay Power with the firmware version 1.03 .

Go!

We open engineering menu in Explay Power, for this we type on the keyboard *39*3646# , and here first let's select the item " Audio"- audio settings:

Side tone(as usual - do not change): 0

With the audio settings, let's go back.

Then there is an item: Ring tone.
It can be used to listen to sound standard melodies directly from the engineering menu to understand how much we adjusted the volume ( wheeze do not wheeze), you can try after changing the current mode in the first paragraph Set Mode, but it's best to leave the engineering menu after all the changes, and try to check everything "live" - ​​call the phone, open the player, before that it is advisable to turn off and on the phone, because sometimes it starts to fail just after the next reboot - it was I have this once with these settings, everything seems to be fine, but with an incoming call at any volume, the melody wheezes and "like a pipe". Only Power flashing helped "and, now after flashing with the same audio calibrations, everything is in order.
---
Speech Enhancement: do not touch, this dregs are still the same, it is not clear how and what, on the forums they write that at this point they change the properties of the DAC (Digital-to-Analog Converter) of the phone, but we do not need it.

But, however, I dared to change one parameter from there. As they write on the forums everywhere and all owners of Explay Power, you can change one parameter - and the interlocutor's voice becomes clearer and more intelligible during a conversation.

Others say it boosts high frequencies when speaking, which is very good for voice intelligibility. I personally did not notice anything like that, but just in case I changed it, maybe it's really better this way, but not worse - what is most important

We open Speech Enhancement> choose Normal Mode> choose Parameter 6, it must be equal to " 400 ", change this value to" 1 "and click OK.
And I changed it to the heap in the sixth parameter from 400 on the 1 also in Headset and LoudSp mode, and everything seems to be fine.
We leave from Speech Enhancement.
---
Next, we see the parameter Max Swing which is somehow related to vibration on calls (and SMS or something). And as soon as I didn’t change it, it made no difference. So we don't touch it, it is equal to 12800 , let it be.
---
Further point Debug Info- something related to debugging, you shouldn't go there.
---
And the last item in the audio parameters - Auto Record Setting.
There are settings for automatic recording of conversations, this is a useful thing, it discreetly writes all conversations to a memory card in a folder " Audio". That's just why the hell is this function hidden in the engineering menu, and why it is not in the phone menu Explay power- unclear. Well, okay, the main thing is that there is.
There are two parameters:
VM Support : off [off]- when the option is enabled, the voice recorder has the ability to record conversations except for formats AMR and WAW also in the format VM... What kind of format it is - it's not clear to me, the phone can easily reproduce such records, but how to reproduce this format on a computer *. VM, or to convert, it is also not clear to me. Therefore, I did not turn it on, let the recorder write better in WAV in high quality, there is still a lot of space on the flash drive.

And the second parameter itself Auto Speech Record [off]- enables or disables automatic recording of all conversations.

For audio everything. Do not forget, after changing all the parameters, go back a couple of points so that the settings are saved, and recheck them with the subsequent entry into the engineering menu, suddenly something is not saved, or you forgot to change something - it happens.

This applies not only to audio properties, but also to all changes that you make in the engineering menu.

What else is in the engineering menu Explay power:
Network Setting- do not touch
GPRS Act- tests like, don't touch either
Debug Info- also it does not interest us
Bluetooth- there are some tests, it is better not to go there

There are two points left: " Misc." and " Device", here they are interesting to us.
Let's start simple:

Misc.- by selecting this item, 5 parameters appear on the screen:
---
Auto Answer: off [off] (automatic reception a call after a few seconds with a headset connected, disconnect, not convenient)
---
RAM Test- when pressed, it tests some kind of memory, you do not need to touch this item
---
Memory dump : off [off]- something merges somewhere ( memory), we do not need it either, we do not include
---
Internet Application (the item has parameters, they refer to the built-in browser andTo the MMS client, they set the headers that are sent to the opened sites on the Internet,through the built-in browser, for example, this phone can be determined by sites as Nokia N93. all settings can be changed - but there is no point in this - and even no show off):
> User Agent : default (the title by which the sites will determine the phone model, the default title, the sites, as I understand it, do not understand, and they do not correctly identify the phone model as Explay Power, but you can install at least N72 - however, I repeat, this makes no sense)
> Accept Header : WAP 2.0 (the title by which sites determine in what format to send a site page to the phone)
> MMS Version: MMS 1.0 (version of MMS, I don't know what this parameter affects, let it be 1.0)
---
Auto Test List- a list of the tested nodes of the phone, I do not know the truth when this test passes (maybe when it is turned on, but unlikely, it would then blink and fart every time it was turned on, but this does not happen), maybe after entering a special. code or when connecting to certain Chinese hardware for tests - I don't even know. You DO NOT need to go there and change something!
---
IN misc. there is nothing more to configure, we go back.

And the last item of the Explay Power engineering menu: Device- there are a lot of parameters, but you can only touch some where I was picking, THE REST DO NOT HAVE TO TOUCH, I don’t know why they are needed, I don’t touch them, and I don’t advise you!
I will list everything:
---
LCD - fine tuning the display - it is better not to touch it, then you will not see anything on the screen!
---
GPIO- categorically do not touch, I do not know why it is
---
PWM- also unclear, do not touch
---
ADC- and here you can see the battery voltage, charger voltage, something similar to the level of current consumption, well, in general information useful (especially for battery calibration in Set Default Level, more on that below).
---
Set Default Level- the item has 5 subparagraphs, 4 of which it is better not to touch:
This is MainLCD Contrast, PWM 1, PWM 2 and PWM 3- we do not touch them, we do not need it.
---
IN Set Default Level fifth point:
Battary- which is responsible for the battery levels, it has 10 parameters(levels), which, if I'm not mistaken, are responsible for the displayed battery level, and tell the phone when to turn off the power when charging ( NS correct me if i'm wrong ), and as a result of reducing the first two parameters, you can slightly increase the duration of the phone's battery life, BUT AT THIS BATTERY LIFE DECREASES Slightly, SO YOU DECIDE(and where to find now new battery for Explay Power - unclear), I experimentally reduced the first two parameters, now the phone seems to not turn off at the most inopportune moment:
LEV 1: 3250000 [ 3450000 ]
LEV 2: 3450000 [ 3500000 ]
LEV 3: 3550000 [ 3550000 ]
LEV 4: 3600000 [ 3600000 ]
LEV 5: 3650000 [ 3650000 ]
LEV 6: 3700000 [ 3700000 ]
LEV 7: 3850000 [ 3850000 ]
LEV 8: 4050000 [ 4050000 ]
LEV 9: 9999999 [ 9999999 ]
LEV 10: 9999999 [ 9999999 ]

In fact, as I understand it ( again, correct me if i'm wrong ) - these levels are equal to the battery voltage in volts.
That is, for example, 3250000 = 3.25 volts, and the current voltage can be viewed in ADC, I wrote about this above. According to the current settings, it turns out that the phone will not turn off until the battery is discharged to 3.25 volts, not before 3,45 as it was before with the factory settings and after flashing, which will slightly extend one charge, and although the phone will beep, it will ring and should not turn off ( Explay Power does not have the function of outgoing calls disabled when the battery charge is critically low, it will ring until the last breath, but the new Explay Power Bank has such a LACK - there is still a lot of charge, and you can no longer make calls, only incoming calls. What's the point? Therefore, I like the old Explay Power more, and this is not one of its advantages compared to the "power bank", the "bank" of course has its own advantages - but for me they are not important, I am the owner of Explay Power - and as a "dialer" it completely satisfies my requirements ).

And yet, theoretically, in a very emergency situation, when you need to make a call, maybe ambulance call, or call somewhere else, if your phone has turned off, you can try to turn it on ( although most likely without recharging for at least half a minute this will not work) and quickly get into the engineering menu until it turns off, turn down the first level LEV 1, for example before 3150000 , 3100000 , or even just before 3000000 , and a couple of three calls, again, theoretically, you will have time to make - but this is a very extreme case, you should not do this, you can disable the phone.

After all, it is not known how the phone will behave at such a low voltage (this is the same as plugging the computer into an outlet 220 volts and volts 80 - will it turn on at this voltage? Will it get buggy and lose data on disk? Here ..), but I turned it down just a little bit, and everything seems to work fine.
---
Set UART- here is the port setting. This item is responsible for detecting the phone by the computer when connected via a USB cable. When picking the settings Set UART, there is a chance to cut off the COM port that appears during the firmware, if you turn it off and screw it up with an engineer - you can’t then flash and return your phone to work, so I don’t go there.
---
Sleep Mode : Enable [ Enable]- do not change
---
DCM Mode : Enable [ Enable]- do not change
---
FM radio- in this item, the FM radio receiver settings, there is no point in changing them, for some reason they are not saved ...
---
PMU register settings- do not touch, I do not know what these registers are.
---

Some of these parameters may be compatible with the new Explay Power Bank, but this is not a fact, since the processors, characteristics, and in the end the dynamics are different.

That's all the engineering menu, and it's okay if you don't go where you don't need to! The most important thing is the sound and the battery.

I made all the volume settings, although "by eye", but they allow you to slightly add sound beyond the possible factory settings, for example, in the player, loud tracks will wheeze, and quiet tracks will just play louder, which I wrote about earlier.

If I missed something important or made a mistake somewhere, after all, the article turned out to be relatively large, I could confuse something or forget - write about this in the comments to the article, your options and adjustments to my calibrations are also welcome.

Security questions

Driving safety

Do not use mobile phone while driving a car.
