Well if not, make a Google search n Try these PC software's, make sure u have valid Drivers of phone installed.

And yet if none of above worked, Try KingoRoot PC software (it needs internet connection during rooting process) .

Flashing a rom to a mediatek device

Hey guys, I have a mediatek mtk6589 device (hisense hs u970 ; sorry guys, xda won't let. Me post links) and it has android 4.2.1, so im planning to update it to a newer version. I have already rooted and installed cwm recovery. But i haven't found any new rom for this device. But then i came across Micromax canvas 2q rom. (sorry guys, xda won't let me post links) and this device have almost same specs as mine. So what I'm asking is can i flash this rom to my device? Does it need to be ported although it has same specs. Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] ganzardy:
how will i fix My Phone Micromax Canvas HD A116 (can't connect to my google account)

i have apps of google such as "playstore", google play etc.

(transfer those files thru "share it apps" from my alcatel android phone)

i do have access to wifi, but the problem is, i cant connect my google account to my phone.

when i access google playstore it says "add google account" (see screen shots)

when ever i add my google account it says "couldn't sign in" (see screen shots)

browsing my phone, i have apps such as , "power toggles" "superSU" and "xtreme Booster"

and i dont know the purpose of this apps...

note: i can access my facebook account, internet surf etc. [MENTION=2791102]xda developer[/MENTION]

U have superSU installed, it means u r rooted.... Have u tried my solution of hosts file editing?
[General Questions and Answers] madbat99:
So this phone fod not have play store, you actually added play store on it? Did you also add google play services, and GMs core? They are also needed to access play store. Sounds like you got a used rooted phone from Some place and it did not have gapps (google apps). Try flashing a proper gapps package for your phone and android version.
[General Questions and Answers] ganzardy:
yeah, i just add from my other phone then install it, i also "share it" google +, where i could havr flashing and proper install gapps package???

.

i dont have es explorer that's why, i cannot apply the solution u suggest.

thnx for the response guys.

my phone bought by my bro without any google apps
[General Questions and Answers] hellakarsh:
You have a custom ROM and also surely a recovery is installed on your phone.... Just a xda search with your ROM name will take you to the ROM's thread.... From there download gapps package and just follow the instructions and flash it via recovery.... If u have any problem, feel free to ask...

1. If I create a nandroid back-up, then flash a custom rom, can I restore from that nandroid back-up to get my stuff back, while on the same (new) rom?

2. I flashed a zip file for mcr modpack on my nexus 6. I created a nandroid back-up before it, but I did some stuff after that, like add apps, chat and even flash another zip. Now, if want to uninstall this modpack, how do I do it, without removing my new stuff?

Thanks a lot.
[General Questions and Answers] hellakarsh:
1. Titanium backup pro has this feature. It can extract apps from nandroid backup and restore only particular apps which you like without restoring the whole nandroid backup.

2. No. You CAN'T uninstall the modpack unless and until you have an uninstall zip ready for this pack. If u want to keep your apps then simply use titanium backup for added apps and chat history and also flash that another zip again after restore of nandroid.
[General Questions and Answers] Mayank97:
So, I should back up using Titanium Backup, then flash the new rom, then restore using TB to get all my apps? Will restoring from nandroid also restore my rom?
[General Questions and Answers] hellakarsh:
You can do it in two ways:-

1. You can backup all the apps through TB and then restore all of them after flashing new ROM.

2. If u have a nandroid backup, then u can restore all the apps from it using TB and NO it will not recover your ROM. And as far as your updated apps are concerned, you can backup only those apps and restore those after flashing the new ROM. It will save your time in backing up all your apps. Just backup the ones which are changed after the last nandroid.

Restoring apps from a nandroid via TB takes a lot of time.

Hi

I have a Dell Venue 8 android tablet (serial dellvenue8000049850) and it's stuck on the boot logo. I can get into recovery mode and do a factory reset there (the screen where guts are spilling out of the Android mascot), as well as clear partition cache, but it won't load pass the Dell logo. I believe it was on 4.2.2. I have not rooted nor done anything to the tablet other than surf the net, play app games, and download shows.

Prior to all of this, it was giving me trouble and I decided to restore it. Only problem was that the factory reset button in the setting wouldn't work at all, so I went thru the hard reset method.
[General Questions and Answers] madbat99:
The modems are the radios/basebands. That's how it receives and translates mobile data. Each new system update usually comes with a new modem. Some people like to update to the latest modem without updating the whole system. Or sometimes people swear they got a better or stronger signal with an older modem, so they like to install a newer or older modem depending on the desired result.

---------- Post added at 04:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:03 PM ----------

I usually do fresh installs of apps from the play store and use titanium to only restore the data for them.

Restoring a whole nandroid will restore your phone exactly the way it was when you made the nandroid, ROM and all.

Hey guys, I am running 5.1 on my nexus 5, can I flash a KitKat ROM into it?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
There is also apps2zip that can be used to make a flash able zip of all the apps you'd like to carry over to any other ROM. You select the apps you want then it makes the zip and you put it on extsd with your ROM and gapps zips, then when you flash a ROM and gapps you flash that zip along with them and you've got the apps. Its a little faster than using TB in system to restore apps, the only advantage TB really has is it can restore app data also which is nice. You can also use Zarchiver to install apps straight from the nandroid.

[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Be very careful with flashing modems, its very easy to brick your device if you use the wrong one, make absolutely sure you have a confirmed working modem for your device before you flash it.

[General Questions and Answers] madbat99:
Going from lollipop yo KitKat make sure you wipe internal SD (data/media) or it will cause problems. But with a nexus you can just flash a factory image of KitKat if you want too.
[General Questions and Answers] dekraan:
Ah yes, I have another noob question! I have read through many forums here on xda about wakelocks and disabling services. And I hear many apps being used. I have installed these: 3c Toolbox pro, amplify, greenify, wakelock terminator, betterbatterystats, wakelock detector, App Ops and Disable service, Autorun Manager, oh and Titanium Backup.

I like BBS, wakelock detector, amplify and greenify and I understand sort of what they do. But when it comes down to services...

Whats the difference between disable service, wakelock terminator, 3c toolbox and autorun manager? They all let you untick services etc. Do I Only need one? Do they do something different? And what?

Thank you in advance for any tips!

Titanium Backup: batch restore app data WITHOUT apks

Titanium Backup question:

Is there a way to batch restore only the app data without also restoring the apks you've backed up?

My intention is to wipe my phone, allow my apps to automatically re-download from the play store and then restore a portion of them with the app data I've backed up, HOWEVER, I don't want the apks I've backed up to be restored.

Thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] madbat99:
Yes. See my dcreenshot. Up near the top the three boxes. One says app only, one says app + data, one says data only. Tick the one that says data only before initiating the batch operation.

...from my Bacon-wrapped Lollipop 5.1.1
[General Questions and Answers] xunholyx:
That's kind of strange. You have Sense firmware (4.16.401.10), or did you flash that yourself?

To fix your partition sizes you need to run an RUU. Just like you ran a GPE RUU to convert, you need one to convert back. . Backup anything important to you, because this will wipe your phone.

Hook up your phone to your PC and get into fastboot.

Download the 4.16.401.10 RUU from here.

When the download is finished, double click it and follow the prompts.
[General Questions and Answers] mrrocketdog:

"all i can really do , is stay out of my own way and let the will of heaven be done"
[General Questions and Answers] xunholyx:
No. You need a Windows PC. It's in exe format, not zip.

But....I do know where to find a download of the RUU converted to zip format, so that you can rename it and flash it in hboot.

Here you go.

It's also kind of renamed already. You just have to delete everything between "0P6BIMG" and ".zip"

I don't use autorun manager or wakelock terminator, but I can tell you that with 3C Toolbox you can disable services, receivers, providers and activities, but I think with Disable Services you can only disable services.

Unless there is a custom version of Colour OS for your phone, you will not be able to do this, but you could make your own version, which if you are a beginner it is not recommended.

Good news is, they only pop up whenever I restart the ROM and doesn't appear to pop up more than one or two times. I still want to know if there's a way to remedy these errors.
