how to install stock rom

how to install stock rom with cmw ? where do i get stock rom ? ,is the mobile by defalut have the stock rom in it ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
What are you exactly doing?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] rehmani:
first i put set in fastboot recovery by pressing by pressing power and vol + button

now mobile show green screen then i open CWM_RECOVERY now showing image first than

i connect phone via cable and press any button of keyboard than its showing

recovery complete and mobile rebooted
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cooljay5:
Rehmani,

Once the cwm is completed, reboot your phone using the same volume+ and Power key. 1st green screen= fastboot, don't release the keys, next red screen = recovery, now release the keys. Wait for the cwm recovery menu options. In menu options select backup and restore, then select, restore. wait for the restore to be completed fully. Once it is completed, you will get reboot phone option, but in cwm reboot automatically is not working. So, after completing the restore and when you are getting reboot option, switch off the phone or remove the back cover, battery, reinsert the battery and switch on your mobile the normal way using only the power key...

Prasad Bhai,

I have successfully restored my phone using the cwm backup from my friends phone. It is a non rooted backup. But the splash screen image is still the same as w719. Can I root the phone again and then install the splash screen of A15? is it available in this thread? Is rooting required for it or can I use cwm to flash the splash image?

By the way thanks for all the help and guidance, you guys are great!!!!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] rehmani:
thanks brother now set is unlocked and working fine
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
You restored using friends Backup of A15? So how the splash screen is of W719 mate ?

Yes you can root again.

But there are 2 ways of installing splash screen,

One via CWM zip file (doesnt require root)

Other is via apps like (ROM toolbox,etc) needs ROOT.

There are 2 other splash screens available in this thread better than Stock

Have a look ;)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cooljay5:
I'm not sure bhai.. but while restoring, the data restore didn't happen and it failed... so, maybe that is the reason? Sure will try for the splash screen from this thread and try it... by the way, I want to install the bravia engine using cwm... will it affect my rom again? or any issues? since I don't want to mess up with the stock rom again....

Nandroid stock rom not working for me... it shows md5 checksum mismatch. Tried downloading twice.

Also this ktouch rom lacks dictionary.

Please can anybody provide me a stock.img file.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Kushan.modi:
MD 5 Mismatch here is solution...

Here is the procedure for solving md5 mismatch error...(Slightly tricky easy if u know Command Prompt)

-Copy Stock nandroid backup files to the phone internal memory (/sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/Flash(any name or 2013.11.*** sm thing)

--Connect ur phone to pc normally.

-opn cmd prompt & goto location where CWM recoery 5.0.2.8 folder(downloaded from first page) located

-type ADB SHELL

-if u r seeing $ symbol thn type "su"

-u r will be getting # thn ready to go

-Type command "cd /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/Flash or (Here 2013-10-10.20.22.53 is timestamp at which backup was generated, yours might be different! )

then "rm nandroid.md5"

then "md5sum *img > nandroid.md5"

if last command fails with error Thn little more tricky in my case i've installed Busybox(ofcourse by installing that chinese ROM first) and installed it in my device.

***** Then slightly change last command like this " busybox md5sum *img > nandroid.md5":good:

Let me Know if u find sm difficulty....:confused:

adb push d:\system.ext4.tar /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/"Date_Stamp"/system.ext4.tar

then follow the steps given by Kushan.modi here

Custm font

this is how my phone looks after installing custom font (Attachments)

font used - MYRIAD PRO (

apple font

)

1- take back up . (just in case)

2. flash .zip from sd card (Font NeutraText-1.zip)

3. reboot phone

you may see no change , dont worry

4. now extract .rar in phone

5. copy Roboto-Bold.ttf and Roboto-Regular.ttf to system

remember system not system/fonts

now set read write permissions same as Roboto-Bold.ttf from system/fonts via root explorer

now copy fonts from system to system/fonts

reboot phone and you are done :good:

if you use opera mini then after installing fonts it takes a long time to gather info about fonts.

I am not responsible for any damage :laugh:

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ntstatic:
hello prasad, hello everyone else,

i have tried every CWM i could lay my hands on a few odd ones too, none of them work

the really odd ones just hang on the red screen

the close ones like the A9 etc do boot up but all you can see is the grey white screen - the system is running however, mind you, you can adb shell in to it.

so i think something related to graphics needs to be changed

ive even tried the online builder with different configurations i could think of even a manual recovery.fstab entries - no luck

i am thinking it requires a custom graphics.c file (non-aosp framebuffer format - what ever that may be - hardly any time the last week) though i hardly have any knowledge about the same.

so there is the status

also if you people have any suggestions or can upload any CWM which needs testing pls do so and i will test them out. pls also post the name of the devide the CWM that you post belongs to so that we may know and do not keep on testing the same thing again and again

so the status of KARBONN A15 development is this

1. Root - Done - was really easy completed in a few hours

2. CWM - not complete - ************** really need this

3. Custom ROM - none tested - correct me if i am wrong here

i wish to mention here that i am not very keen on the 3 rd step - i am really happy with the stock rom - i hardly have any complaints - the phone even runs 720p avi files ( prasad mentions that it does not do 720 mp4 ) which i hardly use it for. nor do i use it for music, for which it sounds excellent to my plain, unartistic oriented ears. i have even uninstalled the DSP manager which on a brief testing sounded the same with all the settings to me.

---------- Post added at 01:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:49 PM ----------

does the romdump contain personal information - i have mine dumped but am wary to upload it as it was done after feeding in the infos. sorry if the question is stupid

i received the piece i had ordered on HS18 for a friend and i should mention that it has a red back. i would have thought that the black/red combination would look cheap but it does not.

it is not plain red rather a rich deep red with a perl effect - kind of and looks rather nice - in fact very gracefull and catchy.

---------- Post added at 01:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:54 PM ----------

true prasad, i would like to test it if i have time - but today (sunday) is the only little that i got to fiddle with the phone as well as to visit this forum. do you think it would be worth my while to check it. what are your reactions - any distinct advantages ??

---------- Post added at 02:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:56 PM ----------

it would be worthy of note that at my moderate usage, plus fiddling to get aquainted and set a new launcher properly tuned to my needs, plus a few bouts of temple run, my piece runs comfortably for 2 days.

in fact after exactly 50 hours the battey indicator says 20% - excellent there !!!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
Nothing as it was for Bricked devices only.

So if you want you can use the ROM file in the download section for your testing.

if A15 is working fine dont flash it.
