[Asus Transformer TF700] Ali I Hagen:
Just to follow up this thread

Finally ASUS Nordic agreed to repair my tablet. After including civil council, sevraø e-mails, and me beeing CSI up their asses, it finally paid!

Looking forward to get it back and try out JB 4.1 :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] usern ameisval idandnot:
What did you exactly do and why did they suddenly pay?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Ali I Hagen:
According to Norwegian law all fault on products within 6 moths have to be asumed to production error, unless the the producent (ASUS) can prove otherwise. As you can read on my opening post ASUS Nordic wasn't cooperative in the beginning, so I contacted Consumer Council and they wrote a letter to ASUS for a response. This seems to change ASUS attitude and agreed to let a technician to have a look at the tablet. Until now ASUS declined the warranty only based on their servicepartner's visual inspection of the tablet.

Previously I have been e-mailing my complains to the service desk, which probably have been trained to say "no" to all mechanical defects. Since Consumers Council was involved I had access to email adress to ASUS guy higher up in the system. I wrote him a new email with CC to Consumers Council. (NOTE this email is originally written in Norwegian, so I just used Google Translate)

I have managed to get my Sophone V75 to a stage where I have ICS 4.0.3, ClockWorkMOD in English, ROOT privledges and a working Google Play Store aka the Android Market

Here are some toys for people to play with, (I accept no responsibility for bricked devices etc etc...)

You will need to have ADB drivers installed on your PC and your phone with USB Debugging enabled.

1) An ENGLISH version of ClockWorkMOD (CWM) for the Sophone V75 with MTK6575 CPU

http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?w5pzb2sq3jpa9vt

2) The SP Flash Tool for MTK6575 devices

http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?wbbd4tqby4p4537

3) The DoomLord tool to Root your Sophone V75 running ICS

http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?m4xgvut4w5ddh55

4) The HTC ADB VCOM driver

http://www.mediafire.com/?z6f695zx5zr0yqk

5) The firmware I used in combination with SP Flash Tool and the CWM Recovery file

http://www.mediafire.com/?c82xozd1f1i2cy5

And last but not least...

6) A CWM backup of an ICS 4.0.3 ROM for the Sophone V75 with working Google Play Store

http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?quo8bxedoqbch7c

The steps I took

1) I factory defaulted the phone

2) Installed the HTC driver

3) Enabled USB debugging on the phone

4) plugged it in

5) I used the DoomLord tool to Root the Phone.

6) Extracted the MP_MT75_h910_v75w_kaiy_ics_aphone+201206....rar firmware file to one directory

7) Extracted the SP Flash Tool to another directory

8) Copied the CWM Recovery file to another directory

9) Started the SP Flash tool and loaded the scatter file (NOT the FORMAT scatter file)

10) Changed the recovery file to the CWM Recovery version

11) Then I used the SP Flash Tool to flash the firmware and CWM Recovery to the phone by clicking download

12) I then installed ROMmanager and used it to boot to recovery

13) Finally I used CWM recovery menu to apply the ROM zip file and reboted into my new ICS phone.

I know this is not a Step by Step with pictures etc. Let me know if it works for you.

My only problem now is that my phone seems to have a radio IMG that is not very good as I am in a fringe reception area.

I would appreciate help in improving my 2G/3G reception, Does anyone have a good radio backup?

Hello,

Maybe you can use this Radio.IMG

Or is it possible to use the one of the Goophone Y5?

I Have also the update8 and update9 files. Do you need this one?

If it works will you tell me

Kind regards

I did not have any luck with your link, It came back with file not found.

Did you paste the link in right or am I doing something wrong?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JuhanaS:
Hi,

First of all. thanks for posting this tutorial, now I have a chance to make my now useless Soponhe V75 (just got it ) to a workable Anrdoird- iPhone replica.

Now my question:

How should I use the SP Flash Tool to flash the CWM Recovery to the phone?

How can I even "upload" the CWM recovery to the program?

I tried to look for some quides for the SP flash tool, and it showed one ought to remove the battery at some point. Isn´t the Sophone battery soldered in?

If you could elaborate the flashing process, I would aprecciate it.

I managed to root the phone though. Now I just want the new IOS and google play to work (without these horrible chinese apps).

Thank you!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Richende:
This is the correct link

https:

//rapidshare.com/files/2248738...666 - Copy.zip

Hopefully it works.

I have tried to install your recovery file but with no succes. The phone does not go further after apple logo. I have an other recovery file that works but it is in chinese.

Where did you find this recovery file?

Thanks in advance
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ufbc:
You reminded me that I left out a step.

I used the SP Flash tool and a firmware I was supplied by the factory and replace the supplied Recovery file wit the CWM recovery file.

I will try to remember to upload the firmware tonight.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JuhanaS:
How were you able to flash the Sophone in the first place,

I have spent hours installing & unistanling MT6575 USB VCOM drivers so that I could flash the recovery img to the phone.

I was able to install the recovery.img via Rom manager application.

By the way,what does the firmware you didin´t put on the instrucitons do and do I also need the flashing tool to work for uploading it?

I was able to install the Android.4.0_623.zip and I now have android on the phone.

Does anyone know If I the Goophone IOS 5.1 sotware works with Sophone?

In addition, if I now try to factory reset the phone, is there a file in the phone memory that has a back up of the original IOS-copy software?

(If not, could someone upload their back-up file of the original settings for this phone)

Thanks alot!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ufbc:
The missing files

The firmware I forgot the link for is just what I used to flash the CWM recovery with.

I extracted it and used the scatter file in the SP Flash Tool (NOT the FORMAT one), extracted the CWM recovery to another directory and double clicked the recovery file in the SP Flash Tool and changed it to the CWM Recovery file.

I then clicked the download button.

As for getting the ADB USB driver working, I think I used the HTC drivers, it says driver HTC corporation version 2.0.7.3

Try this one for the HTC ADB VCOM driver

http://www.mediafire.com/?z6f695zx5zr0yqk

And this is the firmware I used in combination with SP Flash Tool and the CWM Recovery file

Goophone ROM did not work on my SoPhone V75

I tried the Goophone ROM REX V3 and my phone would not boot, I am pretty sure the Goophone ROMS are not compatible with the Sophone V75

Regards the original IOS, you could try my link to file #5 in the original post It is the firmware I was supplied by the factory.

I have updated the instructions in the first post too.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JuhanaS:
Thanks for all the information again ufbc.

The android OS and google play now work flawlessly but,

I now have the exact same problem as you have, I have horrible wifi reception on the phone! I have to stand next to my router in order to get any signal. In addition, I get no 2G or 3G (or any data) at all, there isn´t even a 2G/3G/4G sign next to the signal bar :( (I´m in Finland, and there never seems to be any problems with 2/3G...)

Please, If you manage to find a goot radio image (neither of the links Richende posted seem to work right now) and a quick tutorial on how to install / flash the upgraded radio image, I would be really thankful!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ufbc:
Do you have a copy of the ROM you had loaded before you flashed my ROM to your phone? If so cold you post a link to it.

Perhaps someone could unpack the baseband from it and combine the best of each ROM.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JuhanaS:
Unfortunately I did not save any back ups per se, as by being a noob at this thing I thought the original ROM would be auotmatically saved in the phone memory. (I.e. doing a factory reset would get me back to the original IOS)

But do you have atleast some kind of 2G/3G/edge reception?

Since I have none, and I was wondering if the ICS version you uploaded is not intended for EU mobile networks?

I posted to Q&A already if someone can help in finding a good radio.img file.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ufbc:
Baseband issues

I have that ROM running and both 2G and 3g work great in town, but not at home in the country.

You could try flashing the other firmware that is flashed using the SP Flash Tool and see if that improves things.

It is always a good idea to do a BACKUP B4 you FLASH, I know.... too little too late.

What carrier are you with and what frequencies do they use for 2G and 3G?

You could go into the engineering settings and check the correct base-bands are supported and enabled.

Dial *#*#3646633#*#* from the phones keypad
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Richende:
Stock ROM

Hello,

Will you have the update8or9.zip that is original on the sd card of the sophone?

I can uploud that file.

Kind regards
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JuhanaS:
Yes, backups, whatever the device or situation should be taken.

With wise words, "next time" ...

Anyway,

In finland 2G and 3G use 900 MHz, 1800 MHz and 2100 MHz frequencies.

I went into the baseband area of the engineer mode

All that there is is Adress (Hex): FF

Value (Hex): 0

Block size (dec): 1

Frankly, I have no idea what these mean and how I´m supposed to check wether the settings are ok for 900,1800 and 2100 MHz.

(Ps. The glass is rather fragile on the Sophone. I dropped it VERY lightly today while sitting, and I got a small fracture line both at the back and front cover.´)

I´m wondering if I could just buy a iPhone 4s front glass and replace that without complications this one.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ufbc:
The frequencies are in the BandMode menu

Sorry you need to go into the BandMode menu from the engineering screen not the BaseBand menu.

Hi Again

Try this one...

http://www.mediafire.com/?ks55ukhvkkz13dw
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JuhanaS:
Heya,

Thanks again!

So is this

-the original IOS copy for sophone

-an upgraded IOS copy with better radio

-or another ICS with a possibly better radio image?

or did you perhaps upload this file so that I could extract the radio image and try flashing it? (In this one its named modem.img i think)

Also, If I want to back up my current rom with ROM Manager, which phone model should I choose?

( I have the ICS here now from your original post).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ufbc:
This is another ROM I found from a Russian website.

It is an IOS version and uses ICS

This ROM seemed to greatly improve my 2G/3G signal, and it still has a working Gogle Play store.

I suggest you do a backup with CWM before you flash this. Make sure you have a full charge before backing up as it took ages on my phone.

Let me know how it goes.

Oh, when it first booted it showed text in Russian but then rebooted into English.

Click the thanks button if it works for you.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JuhanaS:
Great to hear this ROM version improved your 2G/3G signal.

I backed up my rom and flashed this IOS copy ROM.

I´m happy to say that my 3G and Wifi reception improved as well!

The reception isn´t quiet the same still as on my Motorola Defy+ and I have to test it in rural areas, but so far so good.

Do you btw know if there is a possibility to use both this IOS mimic and and the Android ICS (for example boot into ICS) ?

Thanks again!

-----------------------

ps. The front glass digitizer has a different ribbon cable than Iphone 4s an the Goophone Y5.

Thus it seems almost impossible to change the front glass if you break it. There are no contact details available directly to sophone anywhere.

Gosh how annoying!

I´m pretty sure people who have bought the phone will eventually start dropping their devices and we really need to find a solution to get a replacement LCD & digitalizer/glass replacements for this phone!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ufbc:
I could recomend Go Launcher EX

Can I recommend you have a look at Go Launcher EX if you want the ICS look and feel.It is what I have loaded.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] The Android Hero:
THE RECOVERY.IMG TO FLASH Sophone V75 !

Hi there!

Here is the solution to all you frustrated Sophone V75 6575 Android 4 owners!

Everybody looks for the correct file "Recovery.img" = to be able to reboot the V75

and choose to Flash, Update from SD Card, Clear Cache and more..

HERE is the correct perfect Recovery.img for all you owners of Sophone V75.

It is provided below for you all to download together with M44 Toolbox(Mobile Uncle Tools).

(This manual is when you have already rooted your phone with for example the DoomLord file)

Instructions:

1. Download these 2 apks below to your Sophone V75 and install M44 Toolbox(Mobile Uncle Tools).

2. Move the "Recovery.img"to the ROOT of your SD Card and NOT inside a folder!

3. Also Download the best firmware: ICS 4.0.623 ROM (from Junior Member) for the Sophone V75

with Google Play Store preinstalled, on the page 1 of this discussion under step "4)" of his tutorial links!

-This is the best Sophone V75 firmware version provided by Junior Member

(Thank you man!- You are needed!)

4. Also move this firmware Android 4.0_623.zip file to the ROOT of your SD Card after download.

5. Open up "Mobile Uncle Tools" and choose "Recovery Update"(It should now locate this file "recovery.img" on the SD card).

6. The Phone reboots and after some seconds this great Recovery Menu shows up and in ENGLISH!!

7. Choose your options what you want to do, by pressing the VOL buttons to scroll and press OK with Power button!

TIP:

The firmware from RUSSIA that is provided on page 2 of this Forum,

made my version of Sophone V75 to crash and Reboot by itself all the time?

(So I recommend to use the best firmware Android 4.0.623.zip Version!

Finally after you have updated your Sophone V75, and are very happy!

Open up the free app "Button Saviour"(lite version) on your phone and deactivate it.

Instead buy or google after the Virtual Button apk (pro version)

which gives you the best access to the MENU and RETURN option as virtual buttons on the screen of your V75.

Because the firmware is missing the "one step back system" when pressing the HOME button.

(Button Saviour is a good app, but if you want direct access with MENU and BACK option as virtual buttons on your screen,

the perfect option is to install Pro version of: "Virtual Button 2.9 apk".

GOOD LUCK FROM THE ANDROID HERO!

I've got a Huawei K3770 dongle (Vodafone badged) that I've unlocked to use a different SIM. I can get to connect to the Internet OK, but the Vodafone software is no longer any use. The first copy of Huawei's Mobile Partner software wouldn't work work with this particular modem, V.16 wouldn't either (lots more features too - pity) and I finally got versions 21.003.27.00.03 which works a treat. What's the problem, I hear you ask? Although the installer was in English, the software is in Italian! My Italian is limited, but common-sense makes it just about usable - however, does anyone know where I can get this version in English, or another version that will work with the K3770 running under Windows 7? Naturally, I've had a fairly good look around on the web, but to no avail so far.
