Downloading it :D

I have an account there,dont know when i created it ;).Even with an account u cant download it from that page.But i know how to copy it to my network drive there,n from there i can download it.

Im yet to receive my A9,but anyway Im downloading it right now :D 124MB file(filename - 天语W680安卓2.3.7ROM+ROOT.zip ) :).

I will mirror it somewhere for u guys :) (be patient,im on a slow connection)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mahfoozceecy:
Here it is :)

UPDATE : DO NOT FLASH IT

FLASH THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK.I havent tested it,coz im yet to get my fone.+ I havent tested the exe files coz im on Linux.And make sure you read the .doc well.

WARNING It can brick your phone and we dont have a stock rom from Karbonn to resurrect the device.

I just downloaded and mirrored it to mediafire

Link - http://www.mediafire.com/?3d74gwruqc3wnrm

This is a whole package which contains flashing tools,rom and drivers and from what i understood reading the doc file is you can root it using QQPhoneManager (screenshots in the doc provided below)

Build.prop says it is 2.3.7.But the log says its 2.3.6 :D ,so i think its better WE DONT FLASH this since we are already on 2.3.6.

Check this doc file for more info on flashing. - doc

Download n upload the doc on google translate to translate to English . :)

Above doc is taken from that 4.0 thread.Anyway i couldnt find a link to any ROM package file there.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] kunal10002003:
hi i have flashed successfully my phone with this rom now the main problem is that the first boot screen of karbonn has vanished and it comes of k-touch no sim cards are detected and the name of the device has also changed to k-touch w680 and the language is completely chinese by default so u'll have to manually change it to english . and the rom looks similar to iphone.but im not liking it at all.so its my earnest request plz dont flash ur phone with this rom. i really want if someone could upload the original karbonn a9 rom and mirror it here.

Problems with Karbonn A 9

Hi

I purchased a Karbonn A 9 couple of days back. Although it is quite a nice phone, there are 2 very pertinent problems associated with it.

1. Headphones work fine, but computer speakers generally do not work when connected to it, A couple of speakers did work, but when volume was raised, they also stopped working.

2. Gtalk always says, "cannot connect to server" whenever on Wifi.

3. Gmail does not sync automaticallu when on wifi however works fine on packet data connection. Whenever packet data connection is switched on,gmail syncs and works perfectly.

Same with Facebook app.

Would also like to comment on the poor customer support of Karbonn, They need to have a working customer care number at least.

If anybody can help me with any of the above, please drop me a mail/post/whatever.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mahfoozceecy:
Its always a big risk flashing such roms.I hope u have your clockworkmode backup available.Dont tell me u didnt made any backup before flashing this rom !!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
Awesome work dude..

Its a bit cleaned up ROM
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
This is an MIUI based ROM

Original ROM can be found on this thread
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mahfoozceecy:
I searched alot for Kernel sources for our device.Im not a developer,but still if we get the kernel,we all could try our best to bring out atleast a CM7 rom,or a faster stock rom with init.d,overclock/underclock capablilites etc.I dont expect Karbonn to release it anyway,they dont even have a working customer service,they are the worst :D.

Btw going through the chinese rom,i could find it to be downloaded from an ftp server

ftp://10.10.1.21/TBW5912_R&D_Release/591214_8344_V0302.zip

Unfortunately it is down for me.Keep checking it,im pretty sure kernel sources would be right there for W680.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] kunal10002003:
bro i have already made a backup of every thing before i have flashed this rom but now when im trying to restore the backup in clockwork recovery mode it is giving me error as checking MD5 sums....MD5 mismatch !
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mahfoozceecy:
Stock Rom is here in this post
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] kunal10002003:
bro i have tried that too after updating with the stock rom the phone reboots it self from the startup screen. really worried now dont knw what to do.

---------- Post added at 11:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:32 AM ----------

guys i need these files from the original karbonn a9 handset. appsboot.mbn , appsboothd.mbn ,boot ,bootloader ,kernel ,nandwrite ,persist ,ramdisk ,ramdisk-recovery, recovery ,splash, system , userdata. anyone who can help me , i'll really be greatful.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mahfoozceecy:
Try factory resetting from recovery n reboot.

If that too doesnt work then try flashing a system.img to system using fastboot.Unfortunately i dont hve any backup system.img to give you.I hope some others could help by posting their backup.You can try using your system.img inside clockwork backup folder.

Search xda for flashboot flashing instructions.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] kunal10002003:
i have changed the system image file and flashed my phone and now it seems to be working fine but the problem is that now the karbonn smart logo doesn't come in the boot screen . rest everything seem to be working.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mahfoozceecy:
Great.Forget about the logo,check whether your both simcards are working.Ending up with wrong radio.img(not fm radio) can mess up that.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] kunal10002003:
ya bro both the sims are working.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] kunal10002003:
can anyone tell me which file contains the brand logo in the rom. because i need to change the brand name of my phone from k-touch to karbonn.plz guys help me with it.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Kinghacker:
Its splash.img whch contains boot logo....download fonehackers AIO flasher from his thread....then google and download karbonn smart logo....then use Aio flasher>splash screen maker....and create splash.img.....then flash it through fastboot...hit thanks if i helped you...ask me if it fails...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] kunal10002003:
thanks bro u are really helpful.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Kinghacker:
It worked or not???
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] kunal10002003:
i have successfully removed the k-touch logo and installed a different android logo but i couldn't get the defauld karbonn smart logo. thanks for ur advice bro.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mahfoozceecy:
I dont have the device with me(shipped,in transit,yet to reach my town),else i could hve extracted the Karbonn splash image.It can be extracted using some simple shell commands and then you can flash it using fastboot.

Hope someone already having the device will do that for you.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mahfoozceecy:

HI everyone, i have galaxy y pro duos GT-B5512. and i am able to connect internet (3G) from any one sim at any time without physically touching the sim.

means is there any in this phone that allow you to connect 3g data using any one of sim1 & sim2.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
yes it has the same functionality
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] vishwasnp:
A risk that paid off well

Well well .. There are people already planning for a ROM for this ? that's good news ! :) when i got this phone , it was relatively unheard of , but i was impressed by its specs and bought it, I also put up a few videos on youtube commenting about its features and performance . And as expected 3 more people I know got this phone after looking at mine . Soon enough the phone is not in stock in most shops and online stores :D

Somehow my phone has never crashed till now, but I heard of some people having it got crashed , anyways A great attempt by Karbonn , but I am looking for any possible update from them, which of course seems unlikely :o
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ashu258:
Thank you dear. What do you say, should I move to a9 leaving this galaxy duos.

What about network qualioty of this function, because I need to travel daily and if the radio receiving capability is poor then I will get into trouble
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
this is better indeed than galaxy duos

compare the specs much Better than galaxy

low price and good value for money

network is good it has 3G capacities

also

battery backup is super high as it had 1600 mah battery
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] vishwasnp:
I must say the radio reciever is weak in this cell and the radio app buggy and not much user friendly.but i am not sure whether this is only in my phone or in general for A9 model
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
The Radio app works on the internal chip and the headset as anteena.

Try using other headset and check.

If still you are getting a bad reception its a handset problem itself.

Root Help

Bro Z-root,Super One Click,Unlock Root All Are Not Working a personal Tried yesterday we need to find some way please reply
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
This seems an issue now,

We need to get into fastboot or recovery from where we can flash the superuser.zip

Anyone knows how to get into fastboot or recovery for this handset?:confused:
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] clavicle:
Fast boot is easy,

-switch off

-press vol up and power on key together (it takes pretty long time)

-You will enter green screen, but need to press the power key again

-Now you will enter the red screen.

-There on your android will appear and all the options too.

-For selecting use the volume up and down keys, but to select an entry you need to press the power on key for a little longer.

Power on and vol down key will probably lead you to download mode.

atm I don't have this phone but all these keys work accordingly.

Happy hacking!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:

please karbonn a9 compare with samsung galaxy ace

Hello all ,

I would like to buy karbonn A9 but

I am totally confussed with karbonn a9 and samsung galaxy ace dues.

* How is display clarity to compare with samsung galaxy ace dues.

* How is sound clarity to compare with samsung galaxy ace dues.

* How is camera photo clarity and video clarity to compare with samsung galaxy ace dues.

* How is internet downloading and uploading speed to compare with samsung galaxy ace dues.

Please give me a reply which is the good phone samsung galaxy ace dues or karbonn a9
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] vishwasnp:
Apart from brand name, A9 scores over Galaxy ace duos in every aspect, you could straightaway buy it, just check for availability of service in your local area though :good:
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
Simple and straight:

You just cant compare this handset with Galaxy Ace or Ace duos, A9 is far better than these 2 combined.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pindat:
Is A9 trouble free?

All is not hunky dory with Karbonnn A9.

External speakers do not work with it Gmail does not sync automatically over wi-fi, gtalk fb apps do not connect over wifi.

Yesterday I realised pdf attachments cant also be attcahed in gmail.

Also, a very poor customer support.

Guys, phone is working perfectly fine!! No sensor issues, dual sim works good and phone hangs on to network in areas with weak signal which speaks a lot for the hardware. However, the camera leaves a lot to be desired!! Image quality is between mediocre and useless. :( Good thing being, it somehow feels that the blame is not to the camera hardware but the app which messes up everything by introducing too much softness in the image.

Can the camera app be tweaked to improve the usability of the images? This one improvement would make it a perfect phone!!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] vishwasnp:
Maybe you could use apps like camera 360 or camera mx . They give good options to tweak camera settings

Still hope we can port a18 rom in a9.. :D
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
We cant

As:

MSM7227 & mkt 6576 are 2 different chipsets (like intel & amd)

MTK based handsets can be called china make, as they dont have open driver support like MSM.

GPU of both are opposite.

It will brick the device nothing else

Anyways, does spice Mi_ 425 support 720p video recording ?

Coz if it can.then could we port that Rom to A9 and enable 720p recording here too
