[Android General] newbornlife:
What ROM are you using? Cause the modrom 2.0.3 seems to work more or less. However I haven't done any extensive testing

Spanish ROM 2.0.4 problems

I've "clean installed" AZKROM2.0.4JB and get a mixture of bugs.

After install everything is fine except WiFi, it refuses to connect to known good connections with the message "|Avioded, poor internet connection".

After a reboot, during which the an "Android Updating" message is displayed, WiFi is fine but I can't toggle auto screen orientation, data connection, switch GPS on/off or adjust brightness.

After various other reboots I get a random combination of the above problems.

Has anyone else experienced this?

It seems that using the menu to restart or power-off does not completely power down the phone. I had several issues that seemed to resolve with a few cold-boots. I had to remove the battery and replace, then restart. Once I did that my B92M would state "Android Updating" or similar. It did that for a few restarts (pulling the battery out each time). Once it stopped doing updates, I was able to use auto-brightness, and my other settings seemed to be reliable.

Hello,

I've just installed new AZK 2.0.4, updated using CWM from JB 3.1.2 that I found http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=36437461 and having just 512 MB RAM (precisely according to Antutu: 462.7 MB and Memory size 1008.3MB. How can I change to 1GB RAM usage?

Thanks
[Android General] newbornlife:
The search function of the forum is your friend.I do not know the exact method,but if you bought the 512 mb version you can't make it 1gb.

install the new "base" 4.1.2 (the one that azkorri used to make his 2.0.4 rom) and then upgrade to azkorri version from that, I think he missed something from preloader img.

---------- Post added at 08:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:44 AM ----------

its a known problem with an hardware revision of b92m, updating to 4.1.2 if you install the wrong preloader.img (the one that come with the pulid f13 update) you'll find that your smartphone will see only 512mb ram even if you have the full 1gb.
[Android General] danycmoi:
Hello

Here is the Roma AZK Jelly Bean 4.1.2 2.0.3 with the GPS files complete.

GPS basic salary, transfer of the applications on SDcard, new boot loader and boot logo.

For the moment on 2.0.4.zip the transfer of the applications on SDcard does not work

Clean the data and make a clean installation

The first starting up can put several minutes.

After installation, restart once

With AZK 2.0.4 I face the problem that my phone can't see his internal SD card. I tried to erase it, reboot many times, but nothing. In CWM I see content of that internal SD card, but I'm unable to mount it by my PC and Antutu is telling that SD card: 0/0MB. Do you have any ideas?
[Android General] marxin:
So, I should flash my phone by flashtool by the image you gave me a link? And after that CWM should be used for installing AZK 2.0.4 ROM? That will return me 1GB of memory?

Thanks

b92m charger

I would like to share my experience about the charger of B92M

Mine came equiped with a 500mah charger that took a very long time to charge the battery, so I stopped using it.

I had a SONY charger 800mah that charged the phone faster so I thought to buy a cheapo 1000mah charger.

The interesting things are that

1. The battery gets quite hot when charging at 1000mah.

2. The screen while the phone was charging freacked out. I would tap the screen on P for example and A would be pressed or even worse special charactes like $ or €.

I would like to test a more expensive 1000mah charger from Samsung or other reputable manufacturer at some point.

If someone else has such a charger to give a test, I would like to hear the results.

I can't understand!!

I have 2 phones 1gb ram and I have do all this I have read to the forum.

I use the 204.zip ROM

All work fine JB rom the phones rooted etc.

But when I cheque the storage I see difference

the 1 is internal storage 0,99GB phone storage 1,36GB

the 2 is internal storage 0,98GB phone storage 1,82GB

What is the problem and how I can fix it?

Thank you for your support!!

Azk2.0.4jb rom

I'm getting closer to fix for my problems with this ROM.

If I reboot with WiFi on, WiFi works perfectly but I can't control brightness, switch GPS or auto-rotate on/off .

If I reboot with WiFi off, I can control everything but WiFi doesn't work. It connects to the router but not the outside world. The indicator remains grey.

I have been experimenting with the phone in this state and have discovered if I manually add DNS servers indictor goes blue and it works.

Unfortunately I think I have to do this per connection and it may not work with some apps.

BTW I have the same situation with 2.0.3
[Android General] jayless:
Hai Guys,

I have flashed my phone multiple times and tested all the roms there are for the b92m, but now im facing

a big problem.

My phone signal goes up and down, when i check the status with mobile uncle tools the "db" value goes up and down from 119 to -99

And most of the time sim2 has totally no service.

I think it has something to do with the radio/baseband, but putting back nandroid backups from when everything was ok isnt helping.

Any ideas/suggestions???? now i have baseband :MAUI.11AMD.W12.22.SP.V21,2012/11/14 12:09

Thanks in advance!

how I can upgrade 4.0.4 to 4.1.2?
[Android General] umangsagar:
There are apps which can help you do that like Camera 360" or "igcamera" or "camera ICS+"

You are right, the compression rate is very important here as a very low size of file for sure reduces the quality.....but on the other hand, just extrapolating the size of the file wont increase the quality. essentially its an 8 mp camera only, so I do not think that is reason enough to stick on to this ROM or to shift. I do not think there will be considerable difference in the quality of the pics in the stock 12 mp and new 8 mp....there though is a huge difference in sony's 12 mp phone pics and this....if u get what i mean :p ....in short...as i always did, just consider it an 8 mp decent camera phone with a tag of 12 mp for just display purpose ;)

If any of you have advanced knowledge on the various options, you can go to engineering mode, dial *#*#3646633#*#*

Scroll down to Camera and you will get Options like :

1. AF EM (Multiple Options)

2. Raw Capture Mode (Preview, Capture, or Jpeg Mode)

3. Raw Type (Processed or Pure)

4. Flicker (50 or 60 Hz)

5. ISO (various options to set ISO levels)

Yes you can preview too ;)

Dangerous Road these, so if anyone really has in depth knowledge of these, kindly suggest the good values.

---------- Post added at 03:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:51 PM ----------

Dude, I am not sure its the right thing to do, stretching till double the real values.....I have known batteries to explode..and really would suggest you to keep it till 800 MaH or so.....though you are the boss of your phone, but i am sure, you love your gadgets as much as we do :)

charging at 1000 Mah will also reduce the life of your battery and its not easy to get replacements for these batteries.

Just a friendly advice :)

---------- Post added at 04:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:56 PM ----------

Thank you both..i could not reply earlier..i already got the solution...flashed CWM, rooted, did all sort of stuff with the stock :p

and now I am taking a nandroid backup...and plan to clean the stock ROM by removing not required Chinese Apps, or rather have them as a user installed App and not system app, and I am going to integrate few Good apps into system...backup again and finally.use the supercharger script for a faster memory...I have done it with my galaxy and it was great fun...hope with this phone with such better specs would be an even better and faster experience.......I am too lazy so will take time doing all this...hopefully i could do this weekend...i will then share my experiences with you all.
[Android General] Momors:
Yes, i have the same problem. But it do only if i´m charging with original included charger. So I use another charger for Sony Ericsson and it does not do now. :good:

---------- Post added at 09:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:27 PM ----------

I would like to ask, if is JellyBean rom stable as original ICS rom now? And which files i must replace in flashtool. I downloaded somewhere file called B92M-412-2.5G.zip which includes: system.img, secro.img, recovery.img, preloader_vanzo.bin, MT6577_Android_scatter_emmc.txt, MBR, logo.bin, EBR1, DSP_BL, boot.img.

Which files i must flash by flashtool for working JB rom? I have 2,5G DATA root rom ICS right now.

Thank you.
[Android General] NixZero:
for some reason when I put an usb extension cable between the charger and the microusb cable the phone's touch screen wont go crazy anymore.
[Android General] newbornlife:
charger experience

I agree that it might stress the battery reducing life and it could be potentially explosive, but I think that is mostly due to the low quality charger. I would like to test and a higher quality charger to see how it behaves. I will let you know if there is something new.

Hello,

after playing with phone for a couple of days, I finally found way how to use entire 1GB RAM memory.

Download torrent file B92M-JellyBean-4.1.2-ROM-GPS-FIX.ip and replace preloader_vanzo77_twn_jb.bin with preloader.img which is in the same archive. Flash the phone.

Applying GPS fix, I got still poor signal that is caused by poor anthena, some French forum having nice photos how to extend gpx signal.

No this Roma is for B92 MTK6577

to all

Having tried several modifications of aerials, I succeeded in having results practically even on my 2 B92, not without trouble.

In the final I cut again that of the 512mo, to bring closer to her very close to that of the 1Go, who had good results.

It was better, but always not so good, I therefore made different tests, and while topping up a small part, accomplished brass auto sticking under the top of the aerial, small part which returns slightly on the part rounded off by the edge of B92, very above, whom I finally achieved in having a fix and a practically identical precision, by rolling 2 between 7 and 14m on phones.

WITHOUT THE SMALL BRASS PART RESULTS ARE DISTINCTLY LESS GOOD

I puts in you ci underneath a photo of 2 phones, just like that you will be able to compare, knowing that on the 1go, results were good right away.

In the final proportions are rather close to the aerial of Oréfie, even the rather broad high part. The soldering in the tin is well seen on 2 aerials.

Small copper part, added at the top under the antenna

For information aerial accomplished in thread of flattened copper diameter 0.75mm for the 1Go and of 0,50mm for the 512mo.

The advantage of the thread of copper, it is the good quality of the copper, the easiness of the format, more one flattened more it is fine, and this knits together easily.

Hi guys like the noob that I am i tried to put a modified vold.fstab on my B92 ICS 4.0.4 to swap external and internal SDs. I overwrote the original file I put it on and it didnt work . so now i have a phone which cannot recognise or connect the external SD card to the computer so I cannot download anything from the computer to the phone.

What I think I need is the code to an original B92 !CS 4.0.4 or any other help would be greatly appreciated.

[Android General] NixZero:
the only reference to your error I found is here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1943442 - it could just be that you are using the wrong flashtool version (the thread say you must use SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1224.0.sn85 )

Hi Ril Z, thanks for the reply.

As it happens that is the post that I followed to get me into this position and I was distracted and forgot to change the permissions, and by that time it was too late, I changed the permissions later but I still could not find my SD card and without it I cannot connect to a PC, all I can do is download apps from the store, cannot use the camera etc as it says I need an SD card.

Is there anyway of changing the code back to the original, the only trouble is I don't know what the original code was.

Also, when I go into Settings/Storage the information of the external SD pops up for a second then disappears and I cannot enter "preferred install location"

I apologise for having to bother you guys but I have scoured the net for solutions.
[Android General] Terrandroid:
do you have adb working?
[Android General] ril z:
Just replace or copy the attached file into /system/etc and don't forget to change permission. If your external SD card isn't detected, use your phone memory card. If both memory card aren't detected, learn or google how to push files into /system using ADB then push the file. Once the file's pushed, your problem's gone.

[Android General] spankranger:

[Android General] thedreadzone:
Thanks for the advice ril z, I thought I had it for a moment there, I used quick ADB pusher, at first it said your phone is rooted but will use as unrooted, I tried to push the file in, it completed and said success so I checked and the file was not there.

I did a bit more searching and came across ADBD insecure, and the website said "If you are running a stock (made by the phone manufacturer) kernel on your device, chances are adbd is running in "secure" mode, even if you are rooted." So installed it, tried again and this time the file pushed in, I changed the permission to rw-r--r-- and still nothing apart from when I entered Storage I thought I had my external storage back as I could see the video, music bars, but they disapeared again.

One thing I do have back is my preferred install location, which I also lost so at least I am a step closer and I can now push files into my system.

I tried ADB tools but it comes up with the message ADB was not found you will not be able to manipulate files in this device.

I also tried the CWM recovery root and followed the simple instructions by Tallguy07 in this thread but nothing, I just get the red bar and an error.

Sp flash tool error

Hello to all.

I own a 1GB model B92M and am currently trying to get CWM recovery installed as well as the 4.1.2 update and root the phone. I am following the guide from page 1, but I encounter the same problem trying various other guides I manage to find online.

The problem I have is when I try to flash the phone in Smart Phone Flash Tool I get "SP FLASH TOOL ERROR: (8038)" "PMT is ready and Layout has been changed!" I find a few people online with the same problem but no answers (including in this post). Could it be there is a hardware fault with some phones?

When putting the battery back inside the phone and quickly attaching the usb cable as well, I hear the usb connect sound and Windows device manager shows the phone for 1 second! as a "MediaTek PreLoader USB VCOM Port (COM5)", then it makes the usb disconnect sound and the phone disappears from the device manager list.

I tried this in Windows XP, Vista, 7 and always the same error.

Anyone with some or all the answers?

Thanks in advance.

If you have the AZK 2.0.4 ROM

If you install another keyboard you'll find that you can't select the new keyboard.

In order to change the keyboard from the Android default to something else like Swype or SlideIT, you must disable the Android Keyboard. To disable go to settings, applications, and slide to the right to show ALL. Then locate the Android Keyboard and Disable. Restart the phone. Now you can select whatever alternate keyboard you've installed.

Do you have a multimeter ? Check the connection between your antenna and ground (some place at board with metall).

When the resitor is 0 so you have a short circuit. So look at this problem.

Maybe its the reason gps dont work. Be carefully with connecting wire to the board.

this means that you cant flash only the recovery file for a partition mismatch problem, you need to flash the whole rom (switching Newrecovery.img for the original recovery.img) but press the "update" button, not the "dowload" one in flashtool.

it should work.
