Ok, this is the method to get your recovery and boot image from your stock rom.

Assuming that you have your stock rom (not only an OTA zip)

Download this tool from here; https://www.trishtech.com/2017/02/e...firmware-update-with-huawei-update-extractor/

Extract your rom stock in the same that you go to extract this tool

Execute UpdateApp extractor like administrator and then browse to your updateApp previously extracted, then the tool will show you all the files that are present in your UpdateApp, select just these two files (boot and recovery) extract them

Then go to this directory where boot and recovery were extracted and move them to your adb folder

Connect device to pc and type adb reboot bootloader when you are in fastboot mode then flash your recovery.img and your boot.img

type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img then fastboot flash boot boot.img and all is done, then type fastboot reboot

Relock bootloader like I explained before

From here you can try to update through Update options in settings and if not using dload method like I explained previously

If it´s different to my referencial cause I found one recovery.img and one recovery.img.header compare the sizes, larger is the correct, the other has normally some kbs.

But if you have recovery.img and recovery.img.signed then use the simple form.

Thanks for help. I continued to search for fix to my problem.I find out on an israelian page, that someone asked for solution for the same problem that i have, also lot of people said that they have this problem. One of them said that he asked from his phone service for solution, and they said that they are already knows that problem and that they are communicating with huawei for solution. But i have another question.

Huawei p10 phone already confirmed to get oreo update and emui 8.0 , and i saw it on images. but its written in my update that the size is 0.95gb, sound too small. so i searched for image of huawei phone that got oreo update and the size was 2...gb. I know that there is OTA update and FullOTA. but can completly new version can be OTA? i am worried cause on my changelog, its not written that its Oreo update. only written that i got security updates and battery consuming optimization...

Which one recovery.img or recovery img 2

And can i leave the twrp installed and just lock bootloader
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
There are (as far I know) two types of OTA, incremental and full, incremental can have just some kbs but it can be bigger (like 0,95GB) and full OTA has a close size than factory image.

If you can´t update through same update options then you can try dload method with 3 buttons, it has to work in this model too.

---------- Post added at 08:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:11 AM ----------

Compare the sizes of these two recoveries, if same then both will work.

You can leave TWRP installed and relock bootloader but you can´t install any update (although there are ways to flash some minimal stock updates with custom recovery but you will need some skill) and you can´t receive this updates via OTA probably.

If you are not able or don´t want to deal with root stuffs then you need to rebrand your device to return to original state.

Note 3 Thai Language needed

Howdy Folks

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 that I want to give to my Thai Girlfriend, I leave for Thailand in about 4 days from now.

The problem I just discovered is that it doesn't have the Thai language installed.

My question

What do I have to do to install a South East Asian Rom / Thai version / any version that includes Thai language.

Is there a shortcut I can take because I don't need anything fancy, just a different language

I am a newb and I would love to study up on the ins & outs of everything myself, which I will probably do one day , but right now , I only have a few days to pull this off so I'm asking for help.
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
Yes, your firmware was altered. When you go to root your device is a thing to think twice cause in this device is pretty hard return to original state.

You have to be sure that your device is communicating with pc type first fastboot devices and see if appears an ID of your device in windows terminal

Just relocking you won't gain nothing, you need to rewrite your stock recovery cause it has needed scripts to flash updates.

Search for "rebrand your model device" there are some tricky methods that you have to do for this specific model, is a common issue unfortunately.

dload? Do u mean to the manual update of importing the .img(firmware)? If yes, then i already tried to search for my firmware(update) but i didnt found( tried funkyhuawei, firmware finder....).

But this is not the problem here. My problem is that i dont know if the update which i got is Oreo&emui 8.0. My phone already confirmed to get oreo and emui 8.0 and its rolling out already, but of course that not all the regions will get the update. But this update which i show u in the screenshot is can be oreo update? OTA update is used for completly new versions too?[/QUOTE]

Suppose that you are in nougat (or there's not sense to doubt).

A full update can be do it through OTA too, it don't mean that all the files could be replaced.

There is an easy way to know if this update contain an upgrade to Oreo, open the zip and go to /system/build.prop

[MENTION=7644154]SubwayChamp[/MENTION] [MENTION=7307587]kakikaka1[/MENTION], you guys are screwing up the quotes, its very confusing. The next reply that you give each other, please get the quotes straightened out so that things make sense for anyone else viewing that might have a reply to the issue you're discussing.

I doubt you'll fix this with any kind of OTA, whether it be incremental or full OTA(even full OTA isn't "full OTA", it doesn't contain everything that is in a full stock firmware)

Typically, the solution to your problem is to flash the full stock firmware using PC via fastboot or other flashing software that is compatible with your device.

Do a Google search for:

[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
It needs root permission.

If this language it´s not in your firmware, then you can´t enable anyway.

What version do you have? maybe you need to install other rom that contain more languages, some from Asia or root it at least temporarily to see some hidden languages. This model is pretty easy to root

Installed a Thai ROM using Odin and it worked , so far anyway.

Happy days

Thanks for your assistance
[General Questions and Answers] Cobbadan:
Well I thought it worked

It's giving me the error "unfortunately the process android.process.media has stopped "

I've followed a few tutorials already that all seem to tell you to go and clear the cache of a few things, disable them , restart, enable them again , yeah nah , hasn't worked for me yet.

I've got another version of the stock ROM on a very slow download that I'll have a crack at.

I was surprised to see all the bloatware still present after I put the new firmware on it. I thought that would all be gone.

What's the process for wiping all the bloatware bull**** off and just putting a standard no frills version of stock firmware on it. I don''t need anything fancy, I just need it to work without any hassles, and have the Thai language.
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
This happen most probably cause before to install this new rom better is wipe all your data, cache, dalvik. You can repeat the process of this way.

Unfortunately there's no Samsung stock rom without bloatware but some Roms contain also the bloatware of some carrier. This extras can reach till 1GB.

In your case I should install a custom recovery and a custom rom. At least on this model never a stock rom had a performance like a custom one but if you don't want to deal with that you can do a half of the process; rooting and debloating all that you want but again if not then you can find a most softly version, see the sizes before download
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
If you flashed stock firmware via Odin, then you only have stock recovery, you need to boot to stock recovery and factory reset in recovery then wipe the cache partition. Stock recovery does not have the option to wipe dalvik cache as suggested by [MENTION=7644154]SubwayChamp[/MENTION], that option is only available when using a custom recovery such as TWRP.(though you could actually flash TWRP custom recovery on the device, then you would have that option, but you don't really need it). Anyway, factory reset and wipe cache in recovery should fix your issue with needing to resort to rooting, flashing custom recovery and custom ROMs. You will have less issues if you keep stock instead of using custom ROMs, especially considering that you will not be the one using the device so you may not be able to fix issues if they occur in the custom software and the person using may not have a clue how to fix it, if they try, they may screw up worse if they don't know how to safely use a rooted device.

There is an option that can be used to keep stock and remove the bloatware without rooting or using TWRP. You can unsign and decompile the stock firmware, then extract the system partition from the firmware, then edit the system folders to remove any apps that you consider to be bloatware. When you have removed what you want, you recompile the firmware then re-sign it correctly. If you make these changes correctly, you can flash the modified firmware, then you won't have the bloatware and you'll be running stock with no root. It will be like a device that just came out of the box new but without all the junk and no potential issues that come along with root and custom software.

Another option is to root the device long enough to remove the bloatware and then remove root, then re-flash stock recovery to replace the custom recovery(if you had to flash TWRP/CWM during the rooting process)

Hey, thanks for the advice, but I did some tests, and turns out, Link2SD works fine, I guess my first theory was right after all, my android's settings didn't recognize that I had it in the external because it didn't understand LinktoSD. Because it does almost fully move the app to the SD card, excluding the "link" that's placed in the local file storage, but those are extremely light and usually less than a MegaByte.

Need firmware for LS775 (ZVB)

I bought a motherboard online for my Sprint Stylo 2, model LS775. But it is stuck at the LG logo. Hard reset does nothing. I have looked everywhere and cannot find ZVB so I can flash it.

[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
I don't know, my point was to say that where you got the part from means you'll need luck on your side to fix it. Many people have been screwed buying parts from these distributors, not many find a solution. Sometimes the parts are listed as being for "this" model when it was actually for "that" model, this causes major issues when flashing firmware on the new parts because if it mislabeled, you could end up flashing a firmware that isn't compatible even though it "should" be by how it was labeled.
[General Questions and Answers] Cobbadan:
factory reset and wipe cache in recovery didn't fix the problem

repeated the above with a fresh ROM flash of two different ROM's - didn't fix the problem

Installed TWRP, repeated the above with a wipe of the dalvik cache, didn't fix the problem

It's changed it though, before, after a flash or a wipe it would usually be fine until I tried to transfer pictures or music onto the phone and then it would throw the error. sometimes it wouldn't wait but most of the time it would.

Now, the error is over the top of the very first welcome screen asking you to select a language. It's the first thing you see after a flash or a wipe.

[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
Now that you cheered to install a custom recovery, then I suggested to wipe all from this recovery cause you actually has some of the files of all the firmwares that you flashed cause a similar firmware don´t erase all data from the previous.

Sorry, I didn´t indicated in the correct order above that any can confuse the idea.

First is needed that the rom that you go to flash onto device should be totally compatible.

First install (if you deleted) TWRP, then go to recovery and erase system, wipe data, cache, dalvik cache (just for sure) and internal memory (don´t put extSDcard) to don´t have any trace of any rom.

Then from the same recovery boot to download/odin mode and do a clean flash of a new rom (you saw a lot of bloatware cause you had bloatware or part of from two roms)
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
It isn't compatible with the region then.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
I guess you could try using custom ROMs for that model since you have TWRP to flash it with, but in your case, I still think that stock would be better if you can make it work. You can try downloading the original firmware for the device, then extract the parts from original firmware to replace in the firmware that you're trying. I'm not sure which parts you would need, but finding the correct parts and switching them then recompiling/signing the firmware into an Odin flashable .tar should work with no issues. It's just a matter of modifying the firmware to be compatible, this is done more often than you'd think so you should be able to find plenty of information about porting a stock Samsung firmware from region/model number to another region/model. It's just a matter of switching the right firmware parts.

XP on Android ??

Hi all. Iv just joined this site as I think its interesting and will prove a useful tool in the future. Im not new to programming but I am with android. My question is I learnt today that Windows XP can be emulated on an android device (faster more memory the better). Im planning on getting a Pumpkin double din touchscreen head unit for my car. This is an octacore with 4gb ddr3 / 32gb nand memory running OREO with 2x USB ports. The only reason I want to do this is so that I can run one or both of these programs:- MiniDSP pluggin (C-DSP6x8. reqs. AdobeAir) and REW(Room EQ Wizard). As Im a bit of an audiophile to run these 2 programs from the HU would be great.

Can XP on android actually be used to do things or is it just a pointless trick to show your mates?
