I wont be beat!!! - If you can guys can help :)

I tried re-flashing several times now, same error keeps appearing. (see posts above) - My understanding of the error is the files already exist on my phone? could be completely wrong! - but if right what do i delete?)

The root only method seems to work fine, files load, it reboots my phone then when loading it states access (or permissions) denied files cant be pushed (something like)

I tried to load up recovery volume up + power buttons, first time on doing this i would get the original android version (v3 i think), however i get nothing now, just a android robot with an red "X" in the middle, the phone boots up fine still, i'm, really stumped.

Would love CWM so i can back up my rom, etc however getting root would be a great start.

Any suggestions is welcome to save my insanity :)

Managed to get another step further, haven't a clue how, however i got a new error message annoyingly forgot to take a screenshot, it said something like can find 4gb rom? arrgghhhh!! i also got into the original recovery (all you do is press menu button - silly me)! its Version 3e trying to install the cwm recovery through here states cant find scatter file.

Do i have any other options left to try?

If I can root, I can show you the way. Now I use one rooted rom but main camera doesn't work. Please help me. I can not find original rom. Just you have
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] baladev:
I can try to help you to get root.

First - you neet to install CWR on your phone, follow this:

1. Download drivers and flash tool on your computer from previous posts and the file from this post

2. Watch this video, guy in it shows how to use all these files to instal CWR on a similar phone (the video is in russian, but it's ok, you can still see what you need to do) -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=0YCfdUPKSmc

The flashing starts from 1.22, before this he shows how to install the drivers

3. Ones you've done with this and have CWR on your phone, i'll tell you how to get root, it's very easy, the hardest part is to get CWR
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] blonqe:
Right i have done a clean backup / no additional apps etc, just as the phone is switched on.

However the only backup i can do is user data so not sure if the rom is included, the file is very small 34.5mb!

Here is the link hope it helps: http://www.mediafire.com/?1oc11vvvlmlpw5e

As for root, i've tried all know ways and still no success i've cleaned cache, data the lot still nothing. Keep getting the same error.

Any other ideas anyone?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] baladev:
Your backup is useless.

Follow the way i described, this method works, many people have rooted their devices this way, but if you don't want help, then i will not write to you any more.

You need to get CWM on your device, then you will be able to get root and do a proper nandroid backup, which will be useful.

Over and out.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] blonqe:
Im sorry but i cant obtain CWM, i keep getting this error:

I was upront with this info i have said several times i'm struggling in previous posts, also i did say i can only get into the original recovery Version 3e.

I'll gladly help obtaining a nandriod backup but i need to figure away past the error im receiving.

I've tried all root / recovery methods know to work, Binarys one click method to obtain root only doesn't work either.

I'm truely stuck! has anyone experienced my issues?

it should be the same, follow the instructions on the previouse page. get CWM on your device first.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MrGaryLim:
I have exactly the same error as yours. Then I flash the Jackson firmware and it got rooted but main camera cannot work anymore. So carefull and do not flash any of the firmware cause it cause the main camera to stop work. Worse is I cannot revert back to original ROM as it seem nobody have it.

Can you print screen your Android version. I believe your is dated Nov 2012, wherelse the firmware that can be rooted is dated Oct 2012.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] baladev:
Jackson's rom is based on JB and doesn't have the proper camera driver in it.

Phone details:

Model Number: e1901_v77_gq2002_9p017

Android Version: 4.1.1

Build Number: e1901_v77_gq2002_9p017_20121119 (Looks as though it is Novemeber)

I assume apart from this Jackson Rom you speak of there is no other root method?

If i gain root / cwm i will do a full nandroid back up for everyone, however i can only do user data backups.

The other options i have in the original recovery are:

Install from SD Card

Install from ADB

Install from cache

Ive tried all 3 ways to install CWM but no joy, if there is a way through ADB then i would need the commands etc.

I tried another flahing tool "MTKtools" (some Russian site) it has a button to gain temporary root, but the error i keep receiving is: permission denied to data/local/temp/sh

Again any help appreciated, i'll glady return the favour by making a nandroid backup if i can access CWM.

Cheers.

Mate I can't, I don't have cwm / root. Until we can find away to achieve this I won't be able to do a full nandroid. Unless there is another way through adb or something!

I have a ROM which doesn't work with this method as I have a November build.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] baladev:
People, unless you have a different phone, the method i've described should work, many people have installed CWM on their n9330 using this method. The version of the rom has nothing to do with this method, it works across many different devices. You need to troubleshot and see what you aren't doing right.

I also tried v15 but I got same error.

I also tried this topic's method, using SP Flash Tool v3.1224.01.

First I tried to load first post's scatter file with recovery.img (CWM_Bruno_N9930) and flash, but it didn't work. I got the same error message than blonqe (see his post with screenshot here).

Then I tried to add boot.img from third post (Patch_Boot_N9330.rar), load scatter file again, check both checkboxes, but it didn't work, and I had the same error. It looks like the scatterfile I'm using does not match my phone's layout map.

My phone is a "N9330 MTK6577 Android 4.1.1" from PriceAngels, has 503MB internal storage and 1.95GB phone storage. Its back looks exactly like angelobiz's one, but in white (see angelobiz's pictures attached). I also attached a screenshot of the "About phone" screen, in case it helps.

Can anyone please help me with this?

Thank you!

The root method will not work for ROM with x_9p017 or dated Nov 2012. The only way to get it rooted is installed ROM with x_5647 or dated Oct 2012, but this will make the main camera not working anymore.

---------- Post added at 11:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:26 AM ----------

The only way to root your phone is flash with firmware ROM dated Oct 2012 but you lost the use of the camera. So far there is no way to revert back as original firmware nowhere to be download.

I am able to work main camera. Just front camera doesnt work.

I installed n7100+ boot.img. changed drivers as 9p017 for main camera,

And changed as hi701 for front camera but just front camera doesnt work.

Cwm and root works. Rom is real jb 4.1.1 from S7108.

So mixed rom but main camera works. Wifi so strange. Rom is so fast.

I think it is about boot.img file. I will share soon. Works with jackson Roms.

My phone firmware was same with yours and i got it root included. So november rom can be root. I just have no time and no pc to try every way to make your phone root. I just need your phone firmware's boot.img.

Be sure that your phone can be root because i used same firmware within root.

I need to fix video camera. I think video camera driver is hv704.yuw. but boot.img doesnt allow driver to load at the boot. So i can not use front camera. My phone's original firmware is ics. (Fake jb) if you can install cwm and make a backup you will help us so much.

Well guys i finally got root i downloaded loads of stuff from Chinese roms and got root.

I re installed the rom i flashed to get root but still it would not boot, i then tried to format the phone not knowing the boot loader was selected!

My pc now does not recognise the phone nor will the phone do anything! i dont even get a charging screen.

Download this rom. Flash this rom usinf sp multi port flashing software. Not flash tools.

Because you have to choose main and front camera driver before flashing.

Main camera is mini9p017.raw

Front camera is 7675.yuw

Lcd is z5xxxxx ( i dont remember name so there is just 3 kind of driver. Choose

Driver begins with Zxxxx.)

Folks, this is completely SOS message. I made the idiot ... never happened to me in five years putting ROMs, and I think I bricked the N9330.

It was applied to SP Flash Tool I followed the instructions of one site that this system doesnt allow me to post because i am less than 10 posts yet.

I followed the N9770 instructions (I did not realize that it was for 9330, mine, I do not know if it influences ...) that talk about how to install the firmware, etc. First step was format ... I did not stop to think and format as web says, then tried to put the ROM and gave me error. Overall, the format did well, was the green circle, but after the rom didn´t, gave me an error.

The conclusion is that mobile doesnt turn on, does nothing to any combination of buttons or enter the Recovery ...
