Facing Problem in CWM

Hi,

There is nothing in the link which points to "A87 drivers". Are these the same drivers available in mmx support page, which you refer in this link.

Also in Step 9 when I type fastboot devices in cmd it doesn't show any device. Can you please tell me what I am doing wrong?

How to install mokee os on a87??

Currently using project dark rom its great.. but want to test cyanomax mokee is alsoo
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ananthkevin:
Hi,

Hope you have rooted your phone and you have CWM on your phone.(Just checking :D)

Please download Mokee OS.zip and do the exact same thing u did to install Project Dark.

Having used all ROMs available for MMX A87, I would say that Project Dark and JB Lite are the best with almost zero bugs.

Mokee has themes and all that, but I don't know, never used it for than a while, worth a try though.

changing the background color of notification to gray

and change the quick panel background and the pulldown bar and add potato clock mod , you can use some resources from my "Kitkat at theme for micromax a87"

Clicking bugs are because you put Owner picture in front of first lidroid toggle (first one can be changed in Quick Panel Settings app), and when you click it opens a toggle ofc.

How to get Emmc dump ?

I got the device, but it's volume buttons don't work.

Anyways, I rooted it and tried the commands. I'll write the output schemes I got . But before that, I noticed that "mmcblk0" is the sdcard itself. When I extracted the backup.img file , I got the sdcard files.

I have attached the block images.

So the question is how do we get the dump. Is it different for small devices or qualcomm devices ?

Here is the output result of dd commands.

1. dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/backup.img

File is too large(4GB) and stops after 30 mins or so.

2. dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/backup512.img bs=1024 count=524288

512 MB file. 3-4 mins

3. dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/backup1.bin bs=1M count=70

70 bytes 1 second

4. dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/backup2.img bs=1M count=512

512 bytes 1 second

5. dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/backup.img bs=1M count=128

128 bytes 2 seconds

6. dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/backup.img bs=1024 count=128

128 bytes 2 seconds

7. dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/backup.img bs=512 count=157286400

large >4GB > 30 mins

8. dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/backup.img bs=1024 count=157286400

large >4GB > 30 mins

9. dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/backup.img bs=4096

large >4GB > 30 mins

10. Same for 2048/1024.

I didn't upload the backup.img because it's the sdcard image.
