[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] rivercat:
I get into the ad recovery section in magldr, cwm opens, I then choose the backup restore section, it checks my sd card and finds the backup I made, no problem up to this point, I choose the backup I want to restore, the process starts, and then I get the file not found errors, but everything's there in the sd card, I checked.

The errors are like this:

eventually it skips everything and restores nothing.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] NYLimited:
OK, no problem. You misunderstood what I said. :)

Go to AD Recovery and CWM v3 will open, correct?

Do NOT select /BACKUPRESTORE!

Select INSTALL FROM SD CARD

Of course, you need to have a copy of CWM Recovery v5 on your SD Card - if you do not have it or you have an older v5 download

this file

and place it on your sd card before you start.

After you install that file reboot and you will have CWM Recovery v5.

Does it make more sense now?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] rivercat:
Yes it does. I will try see if it works tonight. Thanks for your help!

after I rebooted my phone I found out that cwm was corrupted and gave an error when starting, so I had to install it again.

What do I do now?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] NYLimited:
Well now have less possible issues. This is good. :)

The error shows you had a problem extracting the image from the zip. That suggests a bad zip or a bad sd card. Have you tried to download another copy of the zip file?

How big is your recovery partition? To flash that recovery you should have 5 MB, 8 if you might want to try other recovery apps later.

How was your device partitioned? Did you use DAF.EXE? If yes, take a look at the flash.cfg file, the line for recovery. If it has "filesize" (or something like it) instead of a number that partition was created to match last image flashed. The word filesize should read 8 MB or at least 5 mb.

If using the hd2 toolkit there should also be a flash.cfg file someplace.

Check that zip file first, however. I can give you a known good recovery and DAF.EXE but you will have to set the correct partition sizes for what you need.

Hi I have a ed88 mtk6575 512mb ram and 4GB hd this is a tablet phone , it has 2 sim cards and I'd like to root it, I'm totally newbie, so please include step by step for this device.

It has android ics 4.0.4 build number ALPS.ICS.MP.V2.2 So if someone knows how to root one of this, please let me know.

Also is there is a way to make a custom rom for Jellybean that will be used on this phone? and what programs are available for it, please advice.

Thanks,

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ramsuresh4:
hi,

you can try 'Tpsparky root' in your tablet. it is for any Mt6575 devices.

But FIRST BACKUP YOUR ROM - NANDROID BACKUP. If anything go wrong, you can reflash the Rom, Also I am not responsible for any failure (Every developer or mate tells like these)

you can try here - the first file - xfab rooting.zip

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=32932373

first install mtk6575 driver in pc and then click bat file.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gusduenas:
Sparky root didn't work with mine, I have to use the root root with restore by binary and it was rooted...thanks anyway. Do you know where can I find a custom rom (paranoid maybe) able to work with the mtk6575 chipset or now that my phone is rooted, how can I retrieve the binary blobs, vendor libs, device kernel and device tree?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] rain_vich:
Please help.

I have 10 same devices with this build : ALPS.ICS.MP.V2.26

7 inch with 2 sim dual camera with back flash.mtk 6575 2G.

>>>>>>All of them have problem charging when the are off tablet hangs and need to reset. but if turned on are OK. So I need to reset them during off powered charge.

I think charging animation in off mode has a bug!

What can I do? can I change the low level animation?

or I saw some other tablets automaticly turning on when I plug the charger.so is it possible to make the tablet automaticly turned on when plugged to charger???

The brand looks same as ALPS and it works as a 9220 mtk 6575 phone but it is 7 inch tablet.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gusduenas:
hello, sorry for the late reply, I can change the gross icons and images using phothosop and using the update logo and bootanimation.zip. it is easy, you just have to upload to an external sd card the following files:

boot_logo

startup.bmp

battery.bmp

low_battery.bmp

use the update logo from external sd from recovery menu.

My two cents.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] broski270:
After searching for weeks on end I have finally given up and decided to ask for assistance.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Player 3.6 USA. It runs Gingerbread 2.3.6 and I'm using a stock rom that is rooted which I obtained from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1864741

Now, in order to overclock I am well aware that I need a kernel that will allow for overclocking. I also need a kernel that supports my specific device and my Android version. With that, I have Googled, searched here, and pretty much looked in every crack of the internet trying to find a kernel that works. Out of sheer frustration I had actually trying out Tegrak Kernel, which failed miserably but luckily I kept the link above handy to restore my device.

I understand that there have been many issues with trying to develop on this thing and that the community is very small for this device. I see people overclocking their 4.0s and 5.0s and it really disappoints me that other versions can be overclocked but this one can't [at least to my research]. I have looked through these forums up and down and can't find crap. Rooting was difficult enough until I found that one post, and now overclocking is proving to be almost impossible. Is there ANY overclocked kernel out there that would work on my device that I could have possibly missed? Is there any developer currently working on a custom overclocked kernel for this device?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s1mon87:
I rooted my phone a few months ago and installed a package to boost the loudness of the phone when it rings etc (I followed a step by step page to do this).

For the last month or so my phone downloads the Jelly Bean update on a daily basis and each time I'm taken to the CWM screen where it gives me an option to just restart the phone.

I would like to update to Jelly Bean but I'm not sure what I do.. I'm new to Android and rooting so I'm not entirely sure how it all works.

Most importantly, If I do update to Jelly Bean, will I lose my package that I installed to make my phone sounds louder?

Hey folks, had a bit of a search on tapatalk but couldn't find much so here goes.

I got my one x back from repair, but now the camera won't focus, it makes all the sounds etc but nothing works.

They replaced the motherboard, screen and battery and just wondering if this is likely to be software or hardware based??

As soon as I got it back I unlocked it to get my backup restored so not sure how I'll go with warranty.

So far it hasn't been working on stock rooted rom or viper rom. Anything I can try myself or is it back for repairs (again :banghead: )??

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mistergilmore:
Hello, all! Needless to say, I have a problem. Here it goes: Today I factory reset my HTC Vivid, Unlocked Bootloader through HTCdev, perm rooted with the JBear All-In-One-Tool, installed CWM with the aforementioned tool, S-Off'd with the JBear tool and wire trick and unlocked my sim. Once all of this was done, I downloaded the app called "Freedom" (Free In-App purchases for AppStore (iOS 5, iOS 6 with JB, OS X) and Google Play), got the error "Freedom cannot be installed on this device," followed the advice to "Download localepicker and select russia or pyschh at the bottom of the app list!!and you are solved with all errors...." It worked and had Freedom working, but my phone was kind of laggy and I powered it down to restart it.

Here comes the problem: I try to power my phone on and nothing happens...nothing at ALL! I tried holding the vol down and power button...nothing. I have a back up battery and tried that with the same result. I removed the battery for about 10 minutes and came back to it, inserted the battery and tapped the power button and the backlight came on to a blank black screen and wont do anything else. I tried to plug it in to the computer via usb and flash the RUU I had on hand (just in case I wanted to quit failing at the wire trick lol) and I got a crazy sound. No the normal "successfully plugged in a usb device" sound, but a 3 tone (2 mid, 1 low) sound that reeked of rejection. I don't know what to do now obviously. I'm here! Any help would be loved and appreciated.

Thank you all in advance,

Mister Gilmore

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] camo_flage:
Couple questions to out rule some conclusions

1: do you use set CPU or any over clocking app? If you did what were your configurations?

2: when you turn on the phone and the black screen appears can you hear any notification sounds or calls? ( try calling and texting yourself )

3: what ROM are you on? ( can't see from the xda mobile app )

4: how old is your vivid?

5: does the phone turn on using the original battery instead of your backup one?

6: does it charge?

Sent from my PACMAN HTC Raider on the Rogers Wireless Network
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
OK... I would find a way to charge a battery... I assume they are dead...

CWM does not support charging when the phone is off...

And this Freedom app sound like piracy... you may have gotten screwed up from the place you downloaded that from
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mistergilmore:
1. No CPU or overclocking app.

2. There is no sound at all. I tried calling...no dice.

3. ICS 4.0.3

4. I've had it since November of last year (brand new) but I only used it until December. Then I didn't use it again until this December, so it's only been active only 2 months.

5. Both batteries power on to the backlit black screen, no vibration no sound, no wait. Even after i remove the battery, pressing the power button instantly turns it on. No 3-4 second wait like normal.

6. I can't tell if it's charging. No Orange/green light, but plugging it in turns on the screen (black/backlit).

Thank you so much.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mistergilmore:
Oh, no siiirr! I do not involve myself with piracy. I found Freedom after Google Play told me I had to repurchase certain items that got wiped out when I unlocked my bootloader. The statement on the page I got it from (I don't want to post the site seeing that I don't know if it would violate XDA policy) says:

"This software is not a Crack. No services or software were damaged. Freedom doesn't interfere in work of Google servers.

Remember: Freedom launcher was made only for legally installed applications. You can use this application to get content, already included in these apps. Please do not pirate Google Play apps."

As far as charging the battery, I had my back up charged fully and my regular batt was about 50%. My girlfriend has a vivid and the batteries work fine in her device.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] camo_flage:

I assume you have the HTC drivers installed...

Try to fastboot flash boot boot.img from the ROM you have... ICSS or whatever...

Yes... I know there is nothing on the screen... check the readout on your terminal window...

Hopefully it will flash...

If that works... download twrp from goo.im for the holiday and flash that... see if it comes to life
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] mistergilmore:
New information: As I was attempting what you mentioned, instead of the instant "2 mid, 1 low" sound from my computer when I plugged the phone in, it was delayed about 4 seconds. ALSO, WHen I attempted to run the latest RUU WITH the battery, I was told my battery was below 30%. Charge battery and try again. When I attempted the same thing with no battery at all I was told that the device could not be found. Is this a good thing that something remotely recognizes my device? Is there hope still?

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Spooters:
Same issue

I'm having the exact same issue with my Vivid too. My phone has been S-off and all that fun stuff for a long time so I know that has nothing to do with it. Order of my actions leading to it are as followed.

Using TWRP I did a factory reset/wipe then flashed from Paranoid Android 4.1.2 Rom to the PACMAN 4.3 Rom, I have used the Pacman rom briefly before so I don't think its the actual ROM that has anything to do with it.

Instantly upon boot my 32gb sd card became corrupt and unusable right after finishing installation. I reboot my phone to see if it was just a hiccup and would come back. That was it. Now I just get the lit black screen with nothing else. All 3 batteries have a full charge. I keep two fully charged then once the current is drained completely I do a swap to maximize battery life. Let it die 100% followed by an uninterrupted charge. I was really hoping to find an answer here. But to read the phrase "This is a new issue I've never heard of" scares me. I've tasted the android sweet life... I can't go back to a crappy flip phone now. :'( I'll keep looking around and if I catch on to something I'll keep you posted of my findings.

So I just tried plugging into my computer, and I got a driver installation window. (Yes my HTC drivers are installed) Its looking for drivers for a device named "QHSUSB_DLOAD" I have never seen that before, even without HTC drivers.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
Qhsusb_dload is the universal sign for bricked... I don't know what causes it... But... The known fix is JTAG.... Very sorry for your loss

This is an Xposed module (See http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1574401 for more on Xposed) that allows Time Warner's TWC TV app to work when USB debugging is enabled. It should also allow working with VPNs but this has not been tested.

The app no longer seems to be checking for root in any way, so this just disables USB debug checks and also attempts to patch VPN detection. VPN detection patching is untested.

I'm eventually going to write a very generic high-level guide with tips on how to figure out what an APK is doing.

[Xposed Framework Modules] Entropy512:
At some point. I've been busy with other things lately. I also only have one device with working HDMI output. :)

Yup, although it wouldn't come from me as I'm a Plus subscriber.

If there's a hacked Plus APK somewhere, I suggest using Androidguard's androdiff.py to figure out what it's patching.

Then use the Androguard Simple Text plugin to view the relevant source for the APK.

This should tell you which methods need to be overridden to always return true/false.

It works on galaxy s ii from Sprint running cm10. Although the app doesn't actually work. It opens and video status to play but then gets error. If you need with it when it first stats playing it turns green when it stops playing. The only Rom I have gotten it to work on is Blue Kuban. Any ideas?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Entropy512:
This thread is only to discuss the mod to defeat root/USB debug checks in the app. It's not really the appropriate place to discuss any underlying device incompatibilities the app may have.

All I can say is - the graphics subsystem in CM10 on all exynos4 devices isn't exactly in the best shape. There is a reason CM10 and 10.1 never received M or stable builds for any exynos4 handset or tablet.
