e1909c_v77_lx529_x810d_ov5640_20120806(.zip?)

This is the jelly bean rom. I will look for a download now
[Android General] alshark:
Sure, here is the link goo.gl/Pe9Nx . Specs are not correct on this page. you can see from the attachment that it is x810d and android 4.1.1

I doubt you can find something useful there since it is aliexpress.
[Android General] jaw2floor:
1) Root allows you to do more stuff, like jailbreaking an iPhone. You can also flash custom .zip files in the custom recovery to modify your phone.

2) So long as you follow all of the steps you won't need to make a backup.

3) I don't understand those questions, sorry

4) There is a risk - a fault can occur with your IMEI code. It can be fixed though (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=30534835&postcount=32)

[Android General] brotherman38:
This is not the correct flash tool for the Hapai X710D!!!! This is for the Hapai 6575!!! The procedure is correct but the files are not all correct for X710D, you need a new flash tool, and MT6577_Android_scatter_emmc.txt file. It took me a while to correct using these files.

You have to rename 'MT6577_Android_scatter_emmc.txt' to 'MT6575_Android_scatter_emmc.txt' for it to work in the flash tool, which I have already done.

re sd card issue

is this on model x710d that your customers are having unreliable sd card?

if yes, i know that there is a later version where the release notes talk about a fix for "t card issue"

i will get details and post version information soon. so if you have early version then later version should help.

@PhoneFromChina

I have X710D with ROM Version 20120709_e1809c_v77_lx529_x710d2 and just experienced loss of

SD Card. I took one photo which save to SD Card, Went to take second photo and the photo could not find any files stored on SD card until rebooted.

As far as I know there are two versions of the firmware:

1. 20120709_e1809c_v77_lx529_x710d2

2. 20120713_e1809c_v77_lx529_x710d2

The later (2.) has this comment in release note (Google Translated)

1. Fix some T the card identification unstable problem

I have not tried the firmware dated 20120713 but it may be the solution to fix customers issues????

I hope this helps, if you try then please report your experiences here.

some changes in /system after flashing latest FW

Hello!

after reading all these comments I decided to flash to 20120713. No problems so far.

I do not want to have a rooted phone but I want to adfree via hosts file. I flashed custom recovery and I can mount /system rw. via adb I pushed hosts file -> no more ads :laugh:

My cover fits very well around my phone but when carrying I always press home button what switches light on -> poor battery life. I decided to alter /system/usr/keylayout/mtk-kpl.kl and delete WAKE for key 102 (home). Now I am very content :good:

After all I also swap internal partition to /sdcard2 and real sdcard to /sdcard (/system/etc/vold.fstab) :victory:

I hope my x710d is *** 100/100 *** stars now!

Sorry, but i´m newbie, i have no idea what to do with this!
[Android General] GreatPharaoh:
I might have been able to solve the SD card problem:

Now, i got write permissions with Root and custom boot.

the custom boot and root firmware is unfortunately triggering the sd-card bug.

today, i stumbled upon this post right here; Thanks to Ratzenberger I was able to catch up.

after reading his post and doing a lot of tries, here's a complete detail on how to get a root with good working sd-card write permissions;

1. First, flash the latest 20120713_e1809c_v77_lx529_x710d2 firmware using SP tool.

2. Then without booting the phone, flash it again with haipai_x710d_root_custom_recovery.zip (found in here. Use the included proper scatter file for this. Be sure to check all the files are in the right path.

3. Boot your phone then set it up to your desired settings. Install root checker to verify it is rooted. Dont mount your sd-card yet.

4. turn off your phone. Download Ratzenberger's root update/fix here:

5. Unzip his data and with SP tool, open up any MTk6577 file. Now guide four of his update files to your new scatter compilation upgrade. (located at X810d - update root/New Folder). Flash em to your phone and boot it up.

I hope this would help. I got Root access with ext sd-card/ sdcard2 write permissions.

Just my two cents. peace....

Bluetooth & WiFi problems

I'm current running stock 4.0.9 firmware from 7/13/2012.

It works pretty good except for a couple problems that I found;

1) Bluetooth works great (sound, controls, etc..) for about 3 connections, but if I connect/disconnect/bluetooth on/off a few times it has problems and won't connect to headphones and just shows connecting, when this happens and I turn Bluetooth off on the phone, it won't turn back on :( even after a shutdown. I have to remove the battery for it to work again. I've tried a couple different device same results.

2) For some reason at work I can't connect to the WIFI. Its a corporate secure wifi using WAP2. Other people have reported this problem on Android 4.1 Jelly bean the problem is reportedly fixed in 4.1.1.

Is anyone else seeing these issues?

2. I download this rom 20120713_e1809c_v77_lx529_x710d2 (not sure if this is the stock or newest rom?)

3. Using latest smart phone flash tool post #75. If you follow the rooting procedure this step should be easy as it automatically filled all the required files to be flash.. BINGO..

4. To get your IMEI back, i follow post #15 by GreatPharaoh

[GUIDE] write IMEI / MAC / BT address into MTK6577 phone

*** *** you may publish on first page *** ***

Hello,

here my guide to write IMEI / MAC / BT address into MTK6577 phone without root.

first of all open your Device Manager. Be sure all drivers are installed proberly.

you need two drivers: mtk serial driver and android adb driver

Leave DevManager open. If there is any "!" you will not be successfull

switch your phone off

take out battery and leave it nearby

start SN WRITE tool.

select "Write IMEI" function and "Smartphone" "Meta Mode"

change connection setting COM PORT to "USB VCOM"

only check IMEI option "Dual IMEI"

Modem Database select "BPLGU... " without file extention

AP Database select "APDB_MT6577_... " without file extention

see attached picture

Press "Start (F6)" button

type both IMEI and press ok

now you have about 20 seconds to connect microusb from phone (WITHOUT battery) to computer using usb cable

as soon as "preloader handshake OK" is written in log, you have one (1!) second to put in battery quickly

wait little time and see OK (if fail -> check drivers)

in case you are slow -> disconnet USB cable and start over (F6)

always make sure you have all drivers correctly installed! watching Device Manager!

general advice for sensor problems

Hello,

just for general knowledge. all problems regarding sensors are NOT related to android system but kernel. MTK does not release any kernel sources. So we cannot edit any module. But there is a tool from MTK calld SP_MDT_src_v3.1228.00_A2012.08.03_customer (latest version so far). It is designed to switch kernel moduls. you can use it for cam, subcam and lcd. It only patches uboot.bin (it seems to me like a binary .ini file?!). Just unlock sensors and patch... try / flash uboot.bin until working!

What sensors you should activate depends on what sensors are build in. they can be different from phone to phone.

EDIT: first try these settings: ov5640_yuv; hi704_yuv; HS052NH_02B

I did not change uboot.bin at all. so it works. Can anyone tell me how to read out sensors from the phone without root?
[Android General] jaw2floor:
If your phone is rooted you can use Zopo_imei tools. If ill add the. Apk to main post later
[Android General] brotherman38:
Found a work around for the bluetooth, you have to just makesure to wait a few seconds (like about 5-10) after turning on bluetooth on the x710d before connecting to a bluetooth device, and to disconnect device from bluetooth setting before turning off bluetooth on the x710d. Doing this I havn't seen the issue.

New x710D and some questions??

I just got my X710D today. I took out my simcard from my HTC Titan and inserted it into slot one. Everything seemed to work fine, made a call and received a call. My main problem is that I am on AT&T and I can only get the slow EDGE data network, no 3G or 4G at all. I also got a note inside the box that basically said DO NOT DO A FACTORY RESET because your phone will not work anymore?? It has the ICS 4.0.9 loaded on it. I don't want to really do much until I find out more from you guys. Is this the correct forum for the x710D? Thanks for any help and suggestions.

Mac
[Android General] brotherman38:
What's the date on the 4.0.9 firmware? the latest factory is dated 07/13/2012, When you goto setting->More->Mobile networks->3G service;

3G should be enabled

Network Mode should be Auto (2g and 3G), or WCDMA only for just 3G

setting->More->Mobile networks->Network operators (Select a network operator);

You should see all the GSM networks in your area, for me I see

T-Mobile 2G, hopefully 3G soon

ATT 3G

ATT 2G

So it should work.
[Android General] hyperqwest:
I can not count on two hands how many times i have done a factory reset from trying things out. It will work the one thing i know that does happen is when you flash a new rom you loose your imei but can be fixed, other than that nothing else that i know of will happen, Just from my knowledge they might have some kind of spyware on your phone to track the usage, I didn't get any note like that.
