bro if we can use roms of A5/A7 so why we cant use Base band n other stuff of them?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Kinghacker:
Bro....basebands are specifically made for the whole motherboard of phone, it may contain different configurations for different parts included like display, sensors and mainly network chip receiver. Since we have same processor and hdpi folder in the apps of A5/A7, we are able to boot the roms....I hope u understand....
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] KSKHH:
I understand doing R&D is fine but if baseband is same then changing the ROM with other GB ROM exactly not making any sense. Unnecessary you are putting your phone in trouble.

We should not buy Karbonn phones next time better invest some good amount to buy some international brand.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] zeon321:
I don't understand how did cheaper phones like A5 and A7 got ICS update and we didn't get. From where did they obtain the required baseband and kernel files?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pankmohan:
SAD THING

bro yesterday i had tried many gb base rom for my A9 all are work but i think a9 rom having beteer interface than those roms also one more thing is

Camera

is not working in all of them.in Some roms Google play store is also not working

so i think better to waste time on gb rom intallation we have to find out from where they got the base band files for A5 & A7
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] prasad12ka4:
The boot.img if used from A9 ROM can boot and work well with A5 / A7 ROMS

I dont think This is a good idea not to buy these handsets, these phone got ICS, and might get JB soon

Baseband was provided by me

Nice , just wanted to know how you made it boot :) this will be a great step towards development of A9 ROMS.

The baseband for A9 is not available anywhere. I searched, still searching.

Some ROMs are posted on A9 thread though, GB based. Should work well
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Kinghacker:
Camera should work if u flash A7's rom...as A7 also have same 5mp camera with flash....

And I knw this is waste of time bt wat we can do is just play something new with our A9...so we can help in Development of this phone......

Its just that simple....

As for me....I can do....i just use phone for Internet & rom flashing....

Need Help

Hey guys, I'm new here, and I'd be really grateful if somebody, anybody could give me a clue as to how to root this device i.e. Karbonn A9.

I know this is not the right thread, and there is another huge thread on rooting, but that thread seems dead and I'm not getting any answers.

I read and re read all the steps throughout the post, and yet I'm stuck at the very first step.

The drivers do not get installed on my x64 windows 7 system, and I can't do crap after that.

I have the rooting kit provided by fonehacker (live long and prosper), but it's useless because the device drivers can't be installed.

I tried the 4shared download drivers provided earlier, but they don't seem to work either.

Any help would be deeply appreciated.

P.S. I tried adding the certificates and tried again. nothing.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Kinghacker:
The drivers are not for 64bit....but it will work on 32bit windows 7....so install 32 bit windows 7 on ur pc and try.....

[Asus Transformer TF700] blion:
Just bought a TF700 from Amazon (much cheaper in the States than where i live) but got a few questions:

(a) Its still on ICS and I suspect that i will end up installing custom roms etc as I have done with my GS2. I read that i should before i root or unlock bootloder i should backup using NVflash (i think mine is pre 30) but does that prevent me from going to JB or does it not matter?

(b) I use wifi channel 13 at home, but i know my tablet as i bought in US probably has wifi channels 1 to 11. How can i change the wifi to include up to channel 13?

(c) Are there any other diff between a US version of TF700 and a WW version? I note that on the Asus website they have different firmwares.

Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Thats OK:
It is possible to convert your tab to the World Wide or other appropriate firmware by a reflash.

Do you know how this is accomplished?

If not post back and we can guide you.

Also I'm not sure about the wifi channel change, yet there there is most likely a way to change that.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
The way to change the WiFi is via a build.prop text edit hack. It's as simple as changing the country code from US to GB

You must be at least rooted to do it. Of course if you take an nvflash blob copy then unlock the world is your oyster! :victory:
[Asus Transformer TF700] blion:
Sorry but I dont know how to convert it to a WW. Would appreciate it if you could let me know!:o

Do you know what are the difference between a US and WW firmware other than the Wifi channel??

Also do you know the answer to my question (a)? I want to update to JB but worried i wont be able to after using NVflash.....
[Asus Transformer TF700] blion:
Thanks but could you provide more info on how to edit build.prop??

I will try and root tonight. Can you explain what is an nvflash blob copy??? I come from using GS2 where there was not a need to unlock the bootloader but i read that unlocking the bootloader (and therefore losing warranty) is required in order to install a custom rom.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Doing the nvflash thing will in no way stop you updating to jellybean however updating to jellybean will stop you doing the nvflash thing. Nvfash is security nothing more. You can recover from any bricks after you do it.

As for gaining root and editing build.prop I would suggest you read the stickies in the general forum. Think about unlocking and flashing a custom rom if you are not comfortable doing the edits yourself as it's all too easy to get into a bootloop (recoverable) if you don't know what you are doing.
[Asus Transformer TF700] maxal:
Do you know what are the difference between a US and WW firmware other than the Wifi channel??

Hi, I have a tf700 that I bought from the US and I live in the UK, I have always used US firmware and have never had a problem with wifi.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
You won't but if you set your UK wifi router to use channel 13 you will :) Your US infinity won' see it. To fix you flash a WW rom or do the build prop edit and it will work again.

As for other differences I'm yet to find any yet. Other than wifi they both behave the same way.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
AFAIK, the list of included system apps is slightly different, and also the other apps are at least recompiled for each country version.
[Asus Transformer TF700] blion:
Good news......confirmed my new tab is 9.4.5.26 version which i think will enable me to use NVflash!!

I want to try Cleanrom and want to make sure i get this absolutely correct (i dun wanna brick my new tf700!!!).

(a) Follow the guide to backup using NVflash (http://androidroot.mobi/t3_nvflash/)

(b) Install the official asus 4.1.1 bootloader (current version seems to be V10.4.4.23)

(c) Install TWRP 2.3.1.0 (follow this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1938129)

(d) Do i still need to install SuperSU or can I go to install Cleanrom directly??

Is there anything i should be mindful of before flashing??

Thanks in advance!!!!
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
You'll need to unlock it at some point too :D

SuperSu is included in CleanROM so not needed.

It's all very straight forward and remember because you are coming from Stock you won't need to do a full wipe. :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] blion:
Thanks! Ops forgot about unlock. Will unlock, backup NVflash, install asus bootloader, TWRP and then insall cleanrom???

Lastly, should i install odex or deodex version of cleanrom??? The verdict seems to be split.....not sure what practical difference there is between the two..............
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
I'd start with the deodex version but they are so close to each other and easy to switch between. Try them both. You don't lose any apps or data by switching between the two as same base.

I have no idea what is happening. The phone is unlocked and installed CWM when I was in China one week ago since I need a different rom so that I can use Chinese service provider's internet. I went back to America yesterday and found verizon wouldn't work then I try to figure that out by myself.

During that time, I flashed VRALI3 baseband with CWM. Verizon's signal came back again when I flashed the stock rom but VRALI3 stays on my phone. That was all I have done to my phone so far. I couldn't find anything about VRALI3 on google and I need help with this. Thank you!!![[[[[[[[[[[Android Version 4.1.1,Baseband Version I605VRALI3, Build: JRO03C.I605VRALJB]]]]]]]]]]]]

Question - Where do you find Apps

th3lawmak3r76,

No worries, we are here to answer questions. This is a good question and since you are used to

custom ROM's it makes sense why you ask. In the original version of the Kindle Fire HD Launcher

the "Apps" tab is where you will find all your Applications. So in the custom Launchers it would

be called the the primary "App Drawer". Does this help?

Disable Amazon OTA Updates

KindleFireGuy,

Theoretically moving or renaming otacerts.zip should stop the updates but if Amazon get's the word on this there are

still backdoor services running that allow Amazon to push files onto the Kindle. So, let's say they catch word of this,

they will be able to push a new otacerts.zip back to the directory which it was removed. What we did with this simple

script was to disable every back door service that Amazon could use to push files OTA. The script shuts them all

down and does not remove any functionality. The script also shuts down unnecessary services that decrease

battery time.

Thank you for the feedback. I agree, the last thing I want is to go back to the old interface which I completely

look. Why does Amazon have the right to destroy our hard work? My opinion is the do not have the right to

remove our hard work and this is why we developed this script - to stop Amazon from destroying our hard

work.

Yes that post is our How to: Root the Kindle Fire HD and 2:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2069117

The description on how to move otacerts.zip is posted at the bottom of our post.

The reason we built this script is due to the number of backdoor services running on

the Kindle Fire, there are quite a few. Most send your buying habits to Amazon, we disable

this communication path. The other benefit by running this script is it helps to increase

your battery run time since it disables unnecessary services. I can completely understand

why you do not want to Root the Kindle but on the other hand you are losing out on

many benefits. This is why we designed the Noob Series, to allow anyone to complete the

tasks in the tutorials.
