Thank you so much for the reply. Part of the issue is that I can't sign on to the PLAY store, because I can't get on wiFI or my Google account because of the keyboard problem. I also haven't been able to get to any of my apps (like Root Explorer) so I could change permissions or to access a different keyboard apk. I did make some progress--I was able to reinstall latinIME.apk (the keyboard) and it seems to work better...now trying to get it onto Google.

Thanks alot for the help...your idea definitely made a difference.
[General Questions and Answers] ADDICT.ANK:
Ur welcome

As the rom is in beta thats y the problem occurs

I guess that the problem will be solved

Do 1 thing. From google u can download keyboard like swype try them.

And also check that the keyboard works in landscape mode or not,

---------- Post added at 08:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:36 PM ----------

U can use prerooted rom for upgrading.

Also if any of the stock rom is available for rooting u can use that 2.

But best is u go with 1st option.

---------- Post added at 08:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:38 PM ----------

Check in es that root access and location upto root is enabled.

As for ph. Data files

Sdcard wont matter..

And check other dir in sdcard and see the files are there.

Or use a diff. Explorer to confirm

And post here.

So now I have a different keyboard going and have been able to download some apps, etc...but the phone really isn't quite right. For instance the HOME button doesn't do anything but give hepatic feedback...and the settings button in the top right corner of the "window shade" doesn't even let me click it at all. I would still love to figure this out, but might have to go back to the previously working ROM. I still can't understand what could be different about my phone that I have these problems but nobody else is complaining about them.

Thanks again for your help.
[General Questions and Answers] mexarh:
Thank you for your reply!

However, I have read that in order to upgrade to ICS Aurora I have to install the official gingerbread ROM first. If you are sure that this is not necessary, which ROM would you suggest?

About the second option, I didn't really get what you mean by "stock ROM available for rooting". Is there an already rooted official ROM or do you mean something else?

Thanks again!
[General Questions and Answers] ADDICT.ANK:
Yes I mean a prerooted already rooted stock rom.

You can find that in ur device's thread.

Also u can use wireless adb. As the port is broken.
[General Questions and Answers] mexarh:
Looking at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2166353, I have found 5 gingerbread stock roms listed. I think that none is rooted. I would appreciate it if you gave it a look and tell me if I got it wrong.

I think that I can't use wireless adb because I have to be root first to install adb. Am I wrong?

Thank you!
[General Questions and Answers] ADDICT.ANK:
yes u have to be rooted for wireless adb

Do one thing make a recovery for your device...

also u can flash the cwm via fastboot.....commands.

The roms are mentioned but none of them is showing prerooted...as they all are custom roms and already rooted..
[General Questions and Answers] mexarh:
So, I can't use wireless adb. Also, how can I use fastboot without usb? Last, I have read that I have to use the official gingerbread ROM in order to upgrade to ICS, so I am not referring to the custom ROMS listed but to the stock ones. Do you think that I could proceed with the upgrade based on a custom rooted gingerbread ROM? The developer of the Aurora clearly states that the upgrade should be over the last official ROM...

Thanks again!

Ok, I've come to the CDMA side from GSM. Used to have an Atrix 4g and now have an HTC One from Sprint. On GSM you do wtf ever you like, then pop in your sim and you're good to go.

What about CDMA carriers? Is there a tut somewhere on what do to get your sms, mms, data, etc working again after a ROM change when running Sprint or Sprint MVNO's (like Ting... I love Ting)? I'm worried. I flashed my nephews Sprint phone a while back with CM and had problems that took several hours of research to sort out. My phone is my connection to my paycheck. I can't have it down while I figure out how I screwed things up and would like to do the research while I wait for my usb otg cable to snailmail across the country.

HTC Incredible 4G Won't Boot!! HELP 911!!! PRO NEEDED

I attempted to Root my HTC Incredible 4G phone and I really screwed things up. The problem arose when I tried to load another ROM. It didn't work and I then began to try to load a lot of other programs with no success. Anyway, this is what I know:

** When I boot the phone, I get a white screen that lists "HTC quietly brilliant" and "This build is for development purposes only. Do not distribute...". It stays on this screen for about a minute and then goes to a black screen and freezes there.

** When I hold Power button and Volume Down: I get the Bootloader screen, but at first I see that it attempts to load PJ53DIAG and PJ53IMG. Each lists "No Image" or "Wrong Image".

** In Bootloader, if I select Recovery with the external SD card in, I get a screen with a small pic of a green arrow and circle and then after a few seconds there's a red triangle with an exclamation over the phone pic.

** Nothing happens when I hold down Power button and Volume Up button.

** It seems that I can load files on the external SD card.

So, is there a way to resolve this? Is there a way to load a new program as recovery, PJ53DIAG.ZIP, OR PJ53IMG.ZIP? What zip would this be?

This is what info is listed on my bootloader screen:

****TAMPERED****

FIREWALL PVT SHIP S-ON RL

HBOOT-1.15.0000

RADIO-1.53.06.0909

OpenDSP-v29.1.0.45.0622

[General Questions and Answers] ADDICT.ANK:
All u can do without usb is to flash the stock roms only via cwm

U can update until you are on stock kernel...

And the update you are talking about will also wipe the cwm..

So it's better that u upgrade to ics or jb using the custom rom version...only this way you can have cwm and root

Do this whichever rom u flash the stock ones..

Make sure u remove the kernel from the.zip or the format u'll be using....

Only and only this way u can have root access and cwm...

If u get a bootloop flash the kernel u are currently using as it have root an cwm...

And make a backup pls.

The other way is that u repair it...and u should coz u never know when u'll need it..

[General Questions and Answers] Nick Tawi:
Since the last time I posted here I've made some progress with the discord guys.

I got rid of the "An error has occurred while updating the device software use the emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software" screen. To accomplish this I remember wiping the Dalvik cache and the normal cache. When turning on my phone I saw the boot logo and.... and then nothing, a black screen. So I was told to make a backup of the System Image and Data and I had to wipe Data afterwards. After that I rebooted my phone, I saw the boot logo and... still nothing. I'm not seeing the boot animation. I think I made some progress, but as long as my phone won't boot up, I still need ways to go. I can access Download mode, Recovery mode (TWRP) and... that's pretty much it. I would like to be able to access working phone mode soon as well.

I really think the solution is flashing a stock ROM, but remember that everytime I try to, this happens:

[CM] SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE: 3 BINARY:2

I still don't know why my phone shows this in Download Mode...
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
When you try flashing in Odin, is the stock firmware you're using older than what the device originally had? If so, that's probably the issue, you can't downgrade, has to be the sane as what you had or newer.

Are you certain that your device didn't have a locked stock bootloader, if so, that is part of your issue also.
[General Questions and Answers] Nick Tawi:
I was able to flash TWRP on my device, only thing I did was turn on "OEM unlock", I don't know if my device had a locked stock bootloader though.

The stock firmware I was using before this mess was 6.0.1. When I bought my phone the firmware version was 5.1.1, later I updated it to 6.0.1. I remember that after I tried flashing SuperSU and my phone was bootlooping, I did try to flash 5.1.1 again on my phone.

Maybe this is what messed my phone up? The question is... How do I fix it?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Have you tried flashing 6.0.1 full stock firmware via Odin? If you upgraded from 5.1.1 to 6.0.1 then 5.1.1 isn't going to work.

As for the OEM unlock, that means you have a locked bootloader, enabling OEM unlock doesn't unlock the bootloader, it only switches it to where it "can" be unlocked by another process.

How to flash custom ROMs on an Alba 4 inch phone (which is really an Archos AC40NE)?

I have been flashing custom ROMs on my Android devices with a goal to learn as much as I can about how to develop ROMs: how to flash, how to build, how to port etc.

One of these devices is the Alba 4-inch. It is actually an Archos AC40NE (I will explain later). It is available from a UK retailer by the name of Argos. I bought it for £30 (US $38.81 currently), though it is currently available for £50 ($64.69), making it one of the cheapest Android phones you can buy new in the UK. My thinking is that if this phone is bricked, then I will have lost £30. Also, if I succeed in doing anything with this phone, we will have an inexpensive educational device for anyone who wants to learn mobile ROM development.

Now let me explain what I know about Alba. Alba was once a UK-based manufacturer, but that manufacturer is gone. The Alba badge is owned by Argos' parent company, and Alba is just a brand that Argos uses to sell electronics. In this case, the phone is really manufactured by Archos, but it has been re-badged with the Alba name.

I cannot find much evidence of previous community development of this phone either on google or here. No custom ROMs exist for this. I cannot find any OEM firmware to download on the internet from official sites (Argos or Archos). No images of either ClockWordMod or TWRP exist for this device.

I have a laptop running Ubuntu 16.04, with adb and fastboot installed. Adb works with this phone. Fastboot does not work with this phone. This wouldn't surprise me, as the Archos tablets on these forums seem to require SDE and/or UrukDroid to flash anything. However, none of the SDE files on the Archos downloads page seems to match this phone.

With the ultimate goal to port/flash a custom ROM to this device, how would anyone go about it?

I can see some things I ought to do:

- Backup the stock ROM (or download the stock ROM if it is available)

- Install SDE (so will need to find, download and install)

- Port TWRP to this device

- Port a ROM (would probably try Lineage OS)

But how would I go about doing any of these things for this device? And what else would I do?

The aim here is education. If I can't do everything, then what are the things I can do? I have other devices where things seem much simpler, either because fastboot works, or for the Samsung, I use Odin, which works and is far easier to get hold of.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
First, you need to check if the device has a locked bootloader, if it does then you'll have to unlock it first if you want to use a custom recovery, you will need custom recovery to flash your custom ROM(if you even get to build a ROM).

Some devices have locked bootloader that can't be unlocked by any means, if your device is one of these then you won't be able to use custom ROMs at all.

Next, if you want to build a ROM for that device then you'll need it's stock source code and/or its stock firmware. If neither exists then you won't be able to build a custom for the device without them, so there would be no point in continuing your journey.

If there is no stock source code to build custom ROMs from for that device then you'll have to settle for porting a ROM from a similar device with the exact same CPU architecture and same hardware components. The more similar they are the easier it is. You'll have to do some searching and comparing hardware to find similar devices. Then, if you find a similar device and it has custom recovery and custom ROMs available then you can port those to your device.

If your bootloader is permanently locked or if none of the things you'll need exist then you're simply out of luck with that device. You'll need to find some other device to play with.

This stuff isn't available for every device that exists and can't be done on all devices that exist, it just doesn't work that way.

It all depends on whether the manufacturer has made its sources available to the public, without it, nothing can be done.

Hello, quick question

Since I cant find a way to flash my Samsung A5 without a PC (no PC at all read my phone dunno why), can you guys tell me a safe and working custom recovery app like Flashfire for Android lollipop?

I did the hard reset this week.

Dont know why it doesnt work. Shame on me i didnt backup nothing because i thought the tuto was going to work since it was easy the first time.

Does viper4android files stuck hidden in the system?

I surely can say i deleted SoundAlive fir the mod and even after the reset the app is gone so to me the gard reset doesnt revert everything.

[General Questions and Answers] TypoSpotter:
I'm away from home (and the phone in question) at the moment (back tomorrow), but you have inspired me a little bit to try and see what I can find out.

First, I thought I would look at what SDE (Special Developer Edition) firmware has been made available by Archos and see if any of them come even close to the spec of my phone. However, their most recent SDE is for Gen 10 tablets: first released in 2012 with Android 4.0.3. My phone seems to be first released in 2016 with Android 5.1. So I think this would be unlikely to work.

I have browsed Archos' website, and it appears the Archos 40 Neon is very similar in spec to the Alba 4 inch. Not only that, but the device name "AC40NE" could well be short for "Archos 40 Neon". There are some minor differences in spec (a 5MP and a 2MP camera, instead of 2 x 2MP cameras, 1.3GHz quad-core instead of 1.2GHz quad-core), but they seem like the same phone.

I remember I unlocked something in the developer options settings, but I don't remember if this was "OEM unlock" or "unlock bootloader". I will have a look when I get back home. It's very helpful that you were only just telling someone else that OEM unlock and unlock bootloader are not the same thing.

I think that's all I can do until I get back home. You've been a great help. Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Nope, if they aren't the exact same processor then it won't work, some of the other hardware components can be different(in this case it would require more work troubleshooting to get things working) but the CPU has to be exact same. Other things that would have to be the same would be things like RAM, size of internal sdcard, radio and screen resolution. As for the rest of the components, the more exact match it is the easier it will be. You're gonna have to be very selective and find devices that are an exact match or as close to exact as you can get.

To clarify, if there are no custom ROMs available for your device then you wont be able to port a custom ROM from another device, you'll have to port a stock firmware from a similar device, one with a newer android version than yours that youd like to have. If there is no stock firmware available for your device then you won't be able to port a stock firmware either because you need your stock firmware to pull files from it and place those files in the firmware you want to port.

You'll have to compile your own custom recovery also, you need to do that before you worry with a ROM because a ROM will be useless without it.

You have a lot of things that are against you on the device in question, I believe.
