Good work filling in for me I couldn't have said it better myself. Even learned a few things. I got slammed with customers so I didn't get to respond :/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DubleJayJ:
Thanks for the help man!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DubleJayJ:
Also, just to clarify a couple things, installing a custom ROM is standard process, correct? Factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik, then flash, right? And to flash a custom kernel, I just flash that in recovery as well, correct?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
Right
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DubleJayJ:
Alright thanks. I should be fine on everything else. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DubleJayJ:
Hopefully the last question. Phone should come in early tomorrow, can I root AND unlock then activate my phone? I'm fine with waiting but it should come in around noon and I won't be able to activate til 6-7.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wh1t3Rose:
Yes thats exactly what I did.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DubleJayJ:
Just to make sure, you unlocked,rooted then activated, correct? Just a little confused.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DubleJayJ:
Alright.

First off, I went on Casual, rooted and unlocked. Then flashed TWRP. Tried to get into it, and got that Software not authorized message. Booted into Download mode, and went back to Android. Downloaded the EZ-Unlock app and unlocked. After that, I made a backup of stock s3, backed up my IMEI, and I proceeded to wipe. After I wiped, I tried to flash LiquidSmooth. It got to Erasing System and then TWRP crashed(I guess) and it went back to the Samsung Galaxy S3 screen, and stayed at that. Got back into Recovery, restored from my backup, and proceeded to flash Liquid WITHOUT wiping ANYTHING, and as soon as Liquid was done flashing I flashed GAPPS. I got to the LiquidSmooth boot screen, and it was like that for a while. I know that first time boots take a while, but it seemed a little unusual. So, I killed it, went to recovery and restored my backup. And here I am. What should I wipe so Liquid doesn't have an issue and it boots up fine? And should I first flash Liquid THEN boot then go back in and flash gapps?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
Wow, sounds like a fun experience.

Sounds like you're fully unlocked now. So you want to factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, wipe system (optional), then flash rom, then gapps.

First boot might take 10 minutes, just be patient.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DubleJayJ:
So flash GAPPS as soon as Liquid is done? I thought you're usually supposed to let the rom boot then flash GAPPS. I just overlook that and did them both at once. I think doing them separately might be needed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
You could do it either way, but i prefer to flash all at once.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DubleJayJ:
Alright. Gonna be doing it in a couple once I re-download everything ( just to be safe )

And as for the big paragraph I wrote, it was a fun experience . I almost had a heart attack when I saw the "Take this phone to a Verizon Store" message. Then I noticed it's booting to recovery each time. Took me a while to figure out how to break the recovery boot loop.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wh1t3Rose:
Not normally. I would flash them in the same recovery session then boot up liquid. Give it 10 minutes

---------- Post added at 03:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:03 PM ----------

Lol when I first unlocked and rooted (2 weeks ago) I got that message too and I almost had a heart attack. Lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
Good news is even you're a complete newb at this (at least this phone model), you've done so much reading and asked so many questions you can fix your phone in almost any situation you put yourself in. You'll get it working soon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DubleJayJ:
Flashed Liquid and GAPPS at 3:17, went outside to uncover my pool, came back in and it was done. Just finished setting it up.

EDIT - For the S3, I am a quite the newb. But on my X-Play and Nexus 7, it's easy as pie. There's nothing(if anything, it's not much) to worry about. And to fix it, it was easy as pie. Nexus 7 took me a day to figure out and by the end of the night, that baby was unlocked and running SlimBean. But with the S3, there's a lot more to it and you gotta watch out for other stuff. Neat thing about Android is with every phone, it's a new unique experience with unlocking and rooting.
[General Questions and Answers] bnhmmr:
Hi all, just bought a Chuwi V88 Titanium Ice Green tablet and I was wondering if I can use V88/V88s roms for it?

Because for over 2 and a half years this is my first post, I can't post straight to the rom thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2310818
[General Questions and Answers] bnhmmr:
Found an answer elsewhere: Maybe.
[General Questions and Answers] _Aleksey:
Can someone confirm this please?
[General Questions and Answers] bnhmmr:
I've not tested any custom roms yet on mine. I'm still in the phase of growing a pair of balls because I'm too afraid of bricking it.

I'll give it a try right after someone confirms the roms made for classic v88 do work, or when I'm done waiting. Not sure if this little experiment with roms is worth £120.

The main problem is that like 3 people own this thing. Or at least the other ones do not post about it on the forums.
[General Questions and Answers] _Aleksey:
Haha, I understand what u mean.

There is the risk of bricking it, on youtube there is a vid showing how to unbrick a classic v88 shortening a couple pins on the pcb.

But again i'm not sure if this will work on the green version.

I dont know much about customizing firmware, but it would be great if a power optimised rom would work on it.

I will receive my new v88 at the end of this week and will see if i can root it to start with.

I was also hoping someone with more knowledge would have tried it. But like you say, seems like not many people own it yet.
[General Questions and Answers] bnhmmr:
It's starting to look like the custom roms might work after all! I'll wait for the latest CM10.1 rom before flashing.
[General Questions and Answers] _Aleksey:
Oh thats great news, please let us know if you find something!
[General Questions and Answers] bnhmmr:
Yeah, rom developer Oma confirmed that the hardware is the same and custom roms should work. Now it's just waiting until he releases that rom I've been waiting for.
[General Questions and Answers] bnhmmr:
It's now rooted, so atleast that worked. I had few problems when and after rooting and that's why I don't have that high hopes for a successful flashing.
[General Questions and Answers] panpapad:
Hello guys my first post in XDA although I kept track of Oma's thread for a while! Does anyone have any more news about the Titanium Ice model and custom roms? And one more question a little bit off topic but as you said very few people own it so maybe someone of them is around :P. I found the V88 in Music World seller from aliexpress claiming to have a black version of the V88 with OGS screen. Is this the Titanium Ice green model or something new? How can I know when I buy it?
[General Questions and Answers] bnhmmr:
I'm still waiting for Oma's CM10.1 Edition with phabletUI and multiuser support.

Just checked out that black OGS and it seems to be the same as the green one. At least specs are the same. Beware though, there seems to be some sort of problem with screen responsiveness at least with these Ice Green models. It's possible and even likely they've fixed that in newer models.

Somehow I managed to scratch my OGS screen. Actually there's three deep scratches. I don't know where or when this happened, but one thing's for sure: the screen does not exactly have Gorilla Glass' toughness.
[General Questions and Answers] panpapad:
I think the OGS is not gorilla glass its just a better screen than normal IPS but does not provide extra protection. I think I read somewjere about the problem with screen resposiveness...I think I'll just go with the V88S because there is not much info around for Titanium Ice. Thanks for the response!
[General Questions and Answers] bnhmmr:
Yeah, that's what I actually meant. It's far from Gorilla Glass' toughness. Although the screens do not have anything in common, I'd expect some sort of scratch protection these days. Maybe the extra layer in Classic V88/V88s protects the screen better, because I've not seen any similar complaints.
[General Questions and Answers] _Aleksey:
The "black" v88 from Music World seller on aliexpress is actually the Ice green version. I know because its the one i have.

bnhmmr, my screen has a screen-protector pre-applied. Its difficult to see, but there is a very thin plastic protector on top of the screen.

I think the scratches you made are on this plastic layer and not in the actual glass.

You can check by looking close to the border of the screen.
[General Questions and Answers] bnhmmr:
You're right, thanks for pointing this out! I thought I had peeled it off the first time I got my hands on it but that've must been the one with logos and some specs. Phew!

Responsiveness is still an issue even without screen protector applied.
[General Questions and Answers] panpapad:
Thank you guys. I think I'll go for the V88s then...seems there is more support for ROMs and less problems reported about the Wi-fi and screen responsiveness. I will have to sacrifice that 1 GB extra of RAM, better cameras and thinner design :(.
[General Questions and Answers] bnhmmr:
No probs! I think the rom support is the same for all v88(s)'s, but wifi and screen issues might be a deal breaker for someone. In daily use I rarely have any problems with neither one of those.

And the cameras are bad also in this OGS. :)
[General Questions and Answers] panpapad:
A new version of CM 10.1 with phabletUI is out ;). So you mean that all the OMA's ROMs work for the Titanium Ice green version? Has anyone tried that?
[General Questions and Answers] bnhmmr:
It's still an alpha version. I'm waiting for at least a beta with the few issues fixed the current version suffers. Someone confirmed that Oma's roms work and Oma himself confirmed they have the same hardware. :)

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] iamJParkinson:
Ok so I got the bluescreen after doing a moronic thing and formatting the boot.img. I can boot into the pink screen by holding both the volume buttons and turning on, I get the bluescreen with just any other way of turning it on.

I am on Windows 8 and I had a hard time getting the drivers to install for the Huawei 8800-51 for rooting but I managed to root through a method called "poot" and it worked. this was some time ago so forgive me if I don't supply the source of that root method, Google provided it when i searched it.

Now back to the problem, When i plug in my phone I get about a dozen or so usb popups in "my computer". I was just looking to see what files I need to use and where to place them.

I have read all over about "dload" folder and placing the "steps" in it but I cant get access to my formatted sd card when I plug it into the computer.

Is there something I'm not understanding? Can I copy the basis of a rom (system folder, boot.im etc...) into the main 1gb portion of the 12 usb sections that appear and boot?

If I could get into CWM ill be fine its just getting that far. any help would be gladly appreciated.

Again I have tried the previous methods of the Dload folder but I cant get my SD card to be recognized from my phone when plugged int.

cheers, and sorry if this is in the wrong section or if its been posted, I cant find anything relating to windows 8 side of things and cant get the driver installed so I feel a bit lost.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] iamJParkinson:
When you place the dload folder onto an sd card and back into your phone, plug it into your computer while holding both volume buttons but NOT the power button.

I kept holding the power too and it would'nt go into update mode. maybe it was the bad English I was reading from others but it never mentioned it.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] yusopa:
maybe this may help you

format your sd card. after that put in DLOAD (froyo dload that means 2.2) dont use 2.3 dload. and install with press 2 volume key and power button. that what i did before. settle the problem:good:
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Somcom3X:
No. He has -51...

You need to flash 2.3 stock.

Place 2.3 dload in that folder

Or restore the .cust_img
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] hkej:
You can boot into the pink screen, right?

Just connect it to your computer in the pink screen mode and replace the boot.img file with a proper boot.img file.

I guess that should work.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kenwaweru:
Try replacing the boot image.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] yusopa:
That my idea to save my phone before. But sorry if that idea cant help. But my ideos still live till now with my method

After install 2.2 you still upgrade right.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kenwaweru:
Try this if you can access the Bootloader.

Bluescreen usually wipes the Bootloader, but you can fix that if you can still access it...

In case you lost all the data in Bootloader (pink screen), format the partition with FAT32, create a folder called "image" and copy the following files on there.

EMMCBOOT - http://www.mediafire.com/?lb6ifvgk72iru4a

AMSS.MBN - http://www.mediafire.com/?d6r45q6p5gew59v

Recovery.img - http://www.mediafire.com/?57njygc8oianjac

Boot.img - http://www.mediafire.com/?6d5i0714a7o9z97

If you can't access the Bootloader (pink screen), I'm afraid it's going back to warranty.

Hello

so I spent over 3 about 5hour evenings at computer with searching, reading, reinstalling and I dont know what else while trying to eliminate this 85010014 error. God bless my beatifull girlfriend sitting by me and cooking cofee, without her I would jump of my skin.

On wiki pages you can read that 85XXXX... error are comming mostly from bad version or corrupted mapi32.dll. Well I found about 3 different mapi32.dlls /windows/system32/; /program files/common files/..... etc.) in my computer with different file size but same version descriptor !!! I asked even my friends with different OS versions (W2000, WXP) and different Office version (2000,XP,2003). Everybody had the /windows/system32/mapi32.dll in version 1.0.2536.0 but everybody with different size. Note, that no one is using or ever was using alternative email client.

Finally I found out that deleting the one in /windows/system32/ directory does no harm to Outlook 2003 - interesting isnt it ? But without mapi32.dll in /windows/system32/ directory will the activesync 4 installation (build 4343) not work.

So I came back to original (maybe from OS installation comming) mapi32.dll with size 112128 bytes. But this is not the problem. Active sync 4 still produced same error.

Reflashing PPC does no progress, the problem is really on the desktop as the application says. ScanPST for outlook.pst file will not help too. "detect and repair" function of Outlook 2003 - same, no help. Even choosing to "reinstall in the same manner" from office installation CD will not help, even it takes nearly 30 minuts of hard disk tyrania. Note, that I always had the "full" install of MS Office. Of course I always first uninstall active sync, then reinstall office, then install active sync again.

BUT - as I found - "reinstalling MS OFffice" is not the same as unistalling and installing again ! this really helped to solve the problem.

So here is step by step what I did.

1. backup Outlook.pst file (if default - /documents and setting/<user>/local settings/application data/microsoft/outlook.pst)

2. complete uninstall of ActiveSync, even deleting the directory (/program files/microsoft active sync)

3. complete uninstall of MS Office 2003

4. delete profiles (control panel/inbox)

5. full install Office 2003

6. full install Active Sync 4

7. run outlook, create profile, set up email account

8. run activesync without PPC in cradle

9. delete all devices from activesync

10. run activesync on PPC

11. delete all devices on PPC activesync

12. put PPC in cradle

13. establish connection

14. synchronise

15. it works !!!

NOTE:

dont run activesync before opening MS Outlook. In my case it always corrupts Outlook profile with doubling the Outlook folders and because of that corrupting the syndronisation procedure.

good luck to you !

Sorry,

but "detect and repair" did not work. I even do not and never had another email client. Maybe you just did not read all of my post.

thanks for your answer

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] SiGGy:
I read all of it, maybe read my post a bit more throughly. See where it says, "Even if you don't it's possible the outlook install got corrupted from another application"

So maybe you didn't read all of my post too ;)

I've fixed 7 machines using this method. Most of them (6) didn't have any other e-mail clients installed.

I did something similar to that insanity 15 step method the 1st time it happened to me 2 week ago. Then I found the "detect and repair" fixed it.

I wonder what was different on your machine.

lol, Windows admins. uninstall/re-install. I'm glad I don't work on this O/S for a living.

I hope yours stays fixed permanently, I wouldn't want you to repeat all those steps again! What a PIA.

Support code 85010014 when syncing

Success! Re-install outlook is the only option... for me anyway.

I tried repairing outlook, no difference. Tried new partnerships etc, hard reset my XDA Exec and resync, no difference. Renamed all the mapi32 files I could find and repaired outlook, no difference. Ran the scanpst util, even fixed a problem, still wouldn't sync. Created a completely new pst file and put just 1 email in it (yes it was set to be the default mail delivery folder etc), it wouldn't even sync that 1 item.

So, as per foxnolds post, uncheck outlook in the add/remove programs bit, then re-check it and reinstall outlook, success! Didn't even have to uninstall activesync 4.0 and didn't lose any of my email profiles/settings as it picked them up again after the re-install.

What a palarver.

I am running XP sp2, Office 2003 small business edition, active sync 4.0 and windows mobile 5.0 on an XDA Exec.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 5399722:
So. I deceided to join this forum in order to ask for some help from all those people I saw while searching the net.

I have to admit I am quite a noob with mobile systems, although I have gone way too far the last 3 days!

Here is the problem: I have an mt6575 processor phone in which want to add Greek Language settings. I have downloaded a folder form the manufacture's site, but it didn't contain any instructions. Just some .bin files (ALICE.BIN VIVA.bin, SANSTAR50_6464_11B_BOOTLOADER_V005_MT6250_MAUI_11B_W11_32_SP_V1.bin and ZIMAGE_ER.bin)and a scatter file that can not be read by flash tool (scatSANSTAR50_6464_11B.txt).

After a lot of reading around here and a lot of other forums and sites I realised that in order to do anything, I had to root my phone. I wasn't able to do it through superclick or mtk droid tools so I followed the instructions I found here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2160490&styleid=18

However, I am stuck on the final step.. I can't seem to get my phone on cwm mode... In fact I am not sure I know what exactly this is. I manage to open my phone on the android recovery utility but I am not able to make any choice. Everytime I press some of the menu's choises an android robot with an exclamation mark fills the screen and nothing happens...

Anyway..even if I manage to finalize the rooting process.. I still don't know what to do with the files I have... should I use them somehow on flash tool?

By the way.. The files come with a tool called Multiport Download Flash Tool which looks like Sp flash tool but has too many port options.

I'd be glad if someone helped me with this!

Thank you in advance,

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arnabbiswasalsodeep:
1. Dump your stock recovery image then make a cwm or twrp (preferably twrp) from yueweng's thread for mediatek devices via old cwm or twrp port tool

2. Flash it via sp flash tool (download MTK 6575 scatter from internet)

3. Then reboot into recovery and if in twrp then reboot and it will ask you to root it or not

Or

If in cwm then download supersu Flash zip file and flash it

You have root access now
