Got A7+

Friends, I have been following this thread since a long time and i think it's time to contribute as I have got a new A7+ recently (bought from shopclues.com)

Want to do the following :

1. Backup my current ROM (I' think I'll have to root first ) and upload on mediafire for frnds out here

2. Root the phone so that I can free up the internal memory..

I have never done it but i think i'll have to go through post 1 again to understand the concepts.

Bythe way , Can u guys please tell me if I can

1. ROOT the phone without installing any custom ROM

2. Take a backup first (without ROOTING) is this possible ?

3. Is it possible that the custom ROM (rooted one) to be installed on A7+ as i believe it is for A7.. Any Risk in this ?

thanks in advance. .

For backup your current rom just install cwm that provide on page 2 and if you want any help then contact me here yagneshdave94@gmail.com

Note before you backup your stock rom i advice you to first make it hard reset your handset by going default recovery that provide by karboon so you can share clean rom not yours app added

good thread...have a couple of doubts

I recently changed my a5 rom to ics themed rom..the prerooted

please help me with couple of things..

1) I see internal memory of 180mb occupied in a total of 200 mb. It constantly keeps notifying space issue.

2) When I get calls with +91 suffixed it is not taking up from address book. It's showing as an unknown no eventhough the no is n my contacts

3) this i have been facing all the time, data connectivity. I put it one. It takes forever to get connectivity. I have to switch the phone on and off every time to connect.

Thanks a lot. This thread is really helpful guys.

1. When for the 1st time you install the rom, don't use it...REBOOT your phone...now if you already have the problem, reinstall the rom and do as i say. This rom just takes 48mb which is awesome.

2. It will not take....you should save it with 91 in the contact...but it will consider 0.

3. Use holo as your default launcher...check your apn (most probably you would be using 3g), my friend got the same problem...or else reinstall the rom.

I am currently using this rom and so far it's the best i have seen...these problems of your are common...it will be fixed in one perfect installation provided you follow my steps

If this is my port we are talking about, let me state that I have none of those issues on my phone (except #2 which is due to the stock dialer)

Prolly a messed up install.

I recommend this for every ROM !

Since this has been ported from a Chinese rom, Indian APN settings are not added automatically.

Please add them manually.

I recommend using a different dialer app like exDialer (similar to MIUI Dialer)

Shall port a MIUI rom sometime in the future :)

thanks cool.prateek & Free Radical

Reinstalled ROM as you said, voila got around 120mb of free space. Thx a ton for that.

For data connectivity switching back and forth airplane mode solved it.

I am using Go Dialer Ex. It's a lot cooler & does good for single sim ( I didn't try dual sims yet).

I want to remove some defaults like SRS WOW and all...can i know how to do that?

:good:highfive:

Try to flash a custom recovery through fastboot. You may have to experiment a bit, but then again you are stuck and this would be your way out.
