There is no cwm for this handset

This is the only custom recovery provided to flash CUSTOM ROMS
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ashishgamer:
Yeah but it fail to mount the partitions nd it is really difficult to understand wat it is saying
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
Told you earlier mate

Use translator

And you don't need to mount partitions,

This isn't like CWM

Functionality varies
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] kalrocking:
I still like my stock ROM so dont wanna flash custom ROM unless it provides overclocking facility .

I have updated Bravia engine for display quality it works great .

Only issue is sound m waiting for some mod which will help in increasing overall sound quality like sony ..:rolleyes::rolleyes:

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] kalrocking:
no prasad ..no issues wid battery .

Guys Here is the nandroid with system and boot partition only

It is NON-rooted!

So this is for now.

people i got a few downloads for the stock nandroid

but no reply to if it is working for you or not.

So people who have tried it, tell me if its ok or not!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] nabeeleinstein:
thing is

.lib/modules/wlan.ko

.lib/modules/cfg80211.ko

.lib/libwiperjni.so

are not read properly by kitchen

so a custom rom would have non functional wifi

the last file can be copied but the other two are not being copied, hence the lack of flashable zip

If someone can provide it somehow, then custom rom development would progress.

Dear All,

This is a test ROM and anyone willing to test can try it.

Its based on iphone theme and ICS 4.0.4

Note: Always backup your stock ROM (we havint found a way for A15 yet but online apps can help)

Installation:

1. Turn the phone off, press and hold the volume up + power button, such as mobile phone goes into the green interface mode let go (fastboot)

2. Connect mobile phone data cable & connect to the computer

3. Unpack open folder to find a Brush.bat, double-click it, a command prompt will popup, do not do anything, the installation will begin

4. Press the spacebar to restart phone, Flash success!!! open the phone to enjoy the happiness

5. Use the Boot.img of A15 (On 1st Page , 1st Post) for touch to work

This is a test project so do at your own Risk!!!!
