It depends on what tool and which function you used, flashing over some areas may temporarily or permanently damage a specific partition like where the IMEI is stored, in MediaTek you most likely would find them in NVDATA, NVRAM and/or NVCFG.

You always have to make a backup specially regarding IMEI, modem, calibration data for touch screen drivers.

In regard to the ROM for your device, doing a simple searching may bring to this place https://firmwarefile.com/infinix-note-8-x692 there are others though.

Some time ago a technician made the replacement of the motherboard for a Xiaomi device in front of me, and from what I know it's all about hardware for all the process, taking care to disconnect first the SIM trail, after to open back cover, disconnect the fingerprint sensor, the camera sensors, the flex cable to the battery and so.

After the replacement is done, if the piece is a new one then you don't have much to care about, but if it is used then you should know that the IMEI can be black listed, apart that can be linked/bound to a Xiaomi account.
[General Questions and Answers] crashpb:
well replacing the whole board is not the same as just replacing a component on the board (the emmc in our case).

the disassembly and soldering is not an issue for me but it seems some software setup is involved to replace a dead emmc and I'm trying to understand what do I need to do exactly.
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
Well, you did mention only a dead eMMC, as per the "BGA chip" it's basically a transmitter, have to work the way it is intended to do, you are not trying to repair it, I understand that you only want to replace it. If the situation is different, and you know for sure that the motherboard needs a replacement then you should start by there, reworking a BGA chip must be expensive, but you should replace first one piece and test it.

From what I know all the software comes hard coded into the hardware, so you wouldn't need to load any kind of program into a piece, but, after the replacement is done, the motherboard (the main piece feeding the others at software level) when it is brand new could be the exception, you should charge the OS through some program, I think that all the other parts are precharged with the software they're expected to have.

Hello. I am a noob here. I recently rooted my S3. And I have also installed CM10 ROM. But clockwork mode recovery is not working. Problem is CWM works once with mobile odin. But next time when i try to boot into recovery it goes to stock recovery mode. I read here on a thread(which I am not able to find again) that for S3 I have to Odin flash CMW and then pull out the battery and then boot into recovery. But even that isn't helping either. Can anybody please help me?

E: Signature Verification Failed After CWM zip file install

I installed the OTA for 4.1.2 and have not rooted my T-mobile T999 at all. I've watched videos that said it was for this firmware and model, but when I go into recovery mode and try to install the zip file, I get a message saying "E: Signature Verification Failed." SuperSU is on my phone, but when I try to launch it, it says "There is no SU binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem!"

I've never rooted a phone before, but the videos I watched seemed really easy, but it's not working for me.

Can somebody post how to do it with the most updated G3rootsprint.zip file. Maybe I'm using one that's too old, or maybe since the update is only days old, it's not possible with the processes that are online already.

[noob here] Coby Kyros mid7052

Hi. I've been lurking here and everywhere for about 2-3 days trying to find directions how to root Coby Kyros mid7052. I tried superoneclick and unlockroot but to no luck, had no progress. This is my first time handling an android tablet since I am used to Apple products, jailbreaking and stuff. I haven't seen a root thread that points out exactly to my device, but I figured that it would probably be just the same as other Coby mid tablets.

Here are my questions:

A) Do I need to have a usb driver for this?

-When I plug in my device, it's registered as usb mas storage(s/t liek that). Is that ok?

B) When I used unlockroot, my device doesn't get recognized. Why?

C) When I used superoneclick, the program stops responding on the second step. Why?

D) What is bootleg? Do I need to do this before rooting? How?

E) What is unlocking my phone? Why do I need to do this? How?

I'm sorry for having too many questions. I'm just too clueless when it comes to this. Thanks in advance! :D

ADC Team CM 10.1 install problem on Galaxy S Plus

Hi!

I've been trying to put ADC Team's Cyanogenmod 10.1 (JB 4.2.2) (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2315448) on my Samsung Galaxy S Plus device all day, and I almost succeeded, except for one thing: when I try to boot the device, the fancy startup animation (cyan blue ring with Cyanogenmod sign going round and round) comes in, but the device does not seem to pass through this point. It does not freeze in an old-fashioned way: the device is sensitive to the menu and back buttons (they light up if I touch them, and go blank after a while), it does nothing with the main button, but if I push the power button for about 6-8 secs it shuts down seemingly normally. I've been trying to fix this all day and couldn't manage, so I may need some professional help.

Here's what I've done for the time beeing:

- I had the original T-Mobile ROM on it (T-Mobile Hungary, with Android v2.3.3 version). I managed to root the device with a file I found here on XDA SGS+ Wiki, with the original recovery

- I put on CWMod Recovery v5.5.0.5 with Odin (I found it on an other site), but it caused a CWM recovery bootloop, which I fixed with a package I found here on XDA site, finally I had a working CWM

- I did everything as it was told on the ADC Team's topic: made a backup of the original system on internal SD, wiped data/cache, wiped cache partition, wiped Dalvik cache, installed the ROM's .zip file, installed the google apps zip package, and restarted the device

The result was as above: CM circle going round and round (I waited almost 30 minutes before I shut down the handset)

Then I installed ADC Team's CWM 6.0.3.8 (thought that maybe this version installs their ROM correctly), and tried everything as described in the last bullet point, but the result is the same.

Can anyone give me some useful advice?

Thanks in advance...

Hi, can anyone help with Gapps please?

I have a Zebra TC51 and not having the login details of the google account originally registered with the device i could not get past the FRP so had to flash a stock non GMA AOSP rom from Zebra which brought the device to life but i obviously dont have access to the play store so i set about trying to get it on the device.

First i tried manually installing Play services, account manager, play store ect using APK files but any files i tried resulted in the 'xxxxx' has stopped messages over and over so i am now trying to get a Gapps Zip on the device but that fails too :(

I dont have root and i dont have a custom recovery, i have searched and i dont think TWRP or CWM exist for this device but the stock recovery does allow updates Via ADB which is what i have been trying.

When i attempt to flash Gapps Via ADB, i get the error 'Failed to verify whole-file signature', i have tried 3 different Gapps Zips, all result in the same error.

Am i doing something wrong or am i stuck without Gapps on this device?

Thanks, Steve.View attachment 5490241
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
The option to apply updates via adb only applies to stock updates. Gapps is not a stock update zip so it will not work via stock recovery, you will need TWRP and/or root. You say that there is not a CWM or TWRP for your device so you will have to try using a method that involves using adb with root permissions to install the apps in your Gapps zip file.
[General Questions and Answers] steve_htc_wizard:
Ahh ok, more headaches lol.

The manufacturer refuses to help even developers unlock the bootloader or root and brags that they are doing everything they can to prevent people from doing so with 'their' devices like they still own it, they think they are apple.

Thanks for your reply.
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
You say that they "refuses to help even developers unlock the bootloader" if this step can't be done, you can't further advance on this matter.

Your first goal has to finding out how to unlock bootloader.

As per the FRP maybe it is not triggered, you could boot device and set it up for the use not having only the Google Play service, from what I know the FRP protection avoid device to pass the first setup where the logging account is required.
[General Questions and Answers] steve_htc_wizard:
frp is definitely triggered, its asking for the previously registered google account when flashed with a GMA rom, ive tried everything to bypass it and know how to trick the device into letting me access the settings menu but trying to use the frp bypass apk does not work as the app crashes on open and the manufacturer has removed the option to factory reset from within android which in booted o.s should clear frp and instead force you to perform a reset using a zip file in recovery which will always trigger frp.

There exists a zip to clear the cache but its impossible to get unless your in contract with them, outside of that they lock down most of the downloads and im actually surprised a non GMA rom is downloadable!

ive searched for hours for the cache clear zip elsewhere without success.

If it has to be this way then i can live without the google apps as its not my daily phone (it does not even support cellular networks) and is being used mainly for a telemetry device for RC but it would of course be nice if i could get google apps running.
