[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] kanej2006:
Jackie or anyone else, please help me with one thing, pretty please!

I am using a custom 5.02 Lollipop rom. The Kernal used within the rom unfortunately uses CM source/Cyanogen recovery which is $hit!!!

When entering recovery, I'm unable to do anything. Flashing ANYTHING including apps or roms fails every time. I keep getting verification fail or something similar followed by errors... Aside from formatting data, cache the recovery is useless.

Previously I was using stock Lollipop 5.0. I used Jackie's dual recovery which is no doubt the best there. :laugh:

Also on Kitkat I was using Jackie's custom kernal which had the best of both, CWM & TWRP dual recovery.

This is just what I need on my custom Lollipop rom. I require dual recovery which includes CWM & TWRP.

Please could someone kindly assist on how I can flash Jackie's dual recovery CWM/TWRP WITHOUT losing data or experiencing bootloops!

I tried several times previously to flash Jackie's dual boot recovery and this resulted in constant bootloops. In the end I had to revert to stock and re-flash the rom all over again.

Many thanks for anyone who can assist.

[RAZR HD Themes and Apps] shortperson1026:
I am on a Droid Razr HD on 4.1.2 stuck on a locked bootloader. I cannot stand the Moto Blur stock lockscreen, and I have root. I was able to do enough sorting through the filesystem to make the phone fairly stock, but the one thing I couldn't switch was the lock screen. Finally got around to figuring out the whole framework-res.apk thing, so here's my solution to get an AOSP lockscreen. (There really isn't any other way)

There was some rom called 'Nexesque' which Droid Razr HD users can install with SafeStrap, but it has bugs up the wall and I actually think Moto's stock rom is fairly stable (and even better with some tweaks)

There are still some things I should fix, like if you change to a password-protected lock screen, you will have the Moto-blur lock screen again, depends on if there's demand for an update on this.

-Requirements-

-Must be running JB 4.1.2 stock and rooted

-Be happy

-#holoyolo

Download attached file below!

-Instructions-

I HIGHLY recommend backing up your framework-res.apk before starting the process and install busybox. Turn ON usb debugging, and install BusyBox to cover your ass.

Push the framework-res.apk to your /system/framework/ preferably using adb or something of the sort so you don't run into permission errors/boot loops.

MAKE SURE PERMISSIONS ARE SET TO 644!

If you do run into a bootloop, your phone will still allow for an adb connection if you wait some time. (The boot logo will be there endlessly loading but you can still send commands as root)

If you don't know how to safely push the framework-res.apk, here's a - simple guide -

I don't personally use this phone, my girls is on it. But the mod looks cool and it's great to see development over here. I agree that the stock blur lockscreen is weak! I have managed to tweet to look, but no extra features over here. Sounds like you're in the same boat with the locked bootloader! The stock rom, deodexed and rooted is pretty usable though. If you're looking for some visual tweaks and various mods check out the Aroma Installer mod a few threads down.

Can I just flash this with rsd lite over the current camera patch? Locked boot loader... Or can we sideload on this thing never figured that out
[Moto X General] Gundabolu SC:
NO!! This is just the OTA that you can flash via the stock recovery ONLY IF you are already on Rogers 139.12.36.ghost_row.RCI.en.CA firmware....
[Moto X General] Steve-x:
If it is the update as downloaded to the phone(I believe it is) you'll need to sideload it with adb.
[Moto X General] cartmenicus:
Anyone got a link on how to sideload this baby? Did it on my n7 but idk if its different on the rogers moto x I never got the update and moto device manger isn't working so I'm stuck

Edit I am already on rogers

Damn I can't get into recovery to sideload I have the little Andy with a line underneath it saying no cammand and no button combinations work
[Moto X General] Gundabolu SC:
Press on the volume up button and then press the power button that should bring up the menu!!
[Moto X General] cartmenicus:
Didnt work:(
[Moto X General] Gundabolu SC:
Or wait I think you should hold the volume up button and simultaneously press the power button two times...
[Moto X General] cartmenicus:
That worked :DAm I able to apply the update from the sdcard? I downloaded it on my phone but can't make it to a PC.... Sorry for asking so much questions I really appreciate the help
[Moto X General] Steve-x:
I don't think there is any chance of that. Wait till you have the PC and sideload it.

Hopefully it doesn't mess up your phone, since it doesn't seem to want to update on its own.
[Moto X General] cartmenicus:
Oh okay I guess I won't risk it lol yeah idk why it won't get the ota since I'm on stock rogers I untooted a few days ago and haven't had any issues but I just cant get the ota... Damn I can't get a PC for like 2 days lol

After a long wait for AT&T to ship my phone and going on amazon to order screen protector and case. It finally came in the mail today. As soon as I got it I slapped my screen protector on and went on playing with my new phone. I started watching a video on YouTube and a stuck green pixel around the middle of the phone. I Googled black imaged to make sure and even took a black picture in a dark room and yes its stuck green one.

Anyone have one of these? I'm running a pixel fixer right now Butt if this can't fix it I will have to call at&t to return it instead of getting it swapped out since they give you refurbished phones.

Hi guys

Im on to my next project, Modding my other daughters tablet. This one has a new rk3026 chip tablet :( There is NO info on these tabs that I can find :(

I know they run the rk30xx board but also use rk2928 drivers. So now im stuck. I flashed the CWM for these devices from here http://androtab.info/clockworkmod/rockchip/. NO LUCK! Just bricked the recovery :(

Seems to be all sad faces with this device and the A23. These are the newest budget tabs and yet noone has even come close to finding the firmware?

Can anyone who has one of these get in touch as im now working on modding my other daughters one and she needs it to have an Antutu score above 12k or im in the dog house ( her sis runs one of my mods that gets that score and you know how kids are, lol)

Im thinking of compiling an AOSP build but cant find a tutorial that is usefull. Im not even sure if the Kernel for this device is available on github or anywhere! It seems like im the only one with a rk3026 device?? It also seems like the A23 is setup as direct competition to this device?

Anyone with any info on this would be awesome!!

Cheers guys

Hey there

Very little on rk3026 indeed

I have a Cube u25gt2-w which has it. 1ghz dual core, 400 mali gpu

I have build a custom firmware for my tablet with bloatwear removed and I have a way of rooting it

Would any of this help you? I could send it to you

If you find kernel source please let me know, I could attempt to overclock it

Best,

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cass1977:
This is the trouble, NO info on these bad boys :( I think they are okis. Ive sent one back already as the suppliers supplied the wrong version of the firmware. That resulted in no touch screen. Ive tried CWM and it just bricks the recovery so stay away!

Id love to have a look at your custom firmware, but, id like to see your specs too. I can post a stock .img that can be flashed by rkbatchtool1.7 if that helps anyone.

As its my daughters, I havent messed around too much but hers gets an Antutu score of 10k (BUT her sisters Allwinner A20 gets 12k(With a modded rom)). Could you post your Antutu scores?

It would be good to work on a rom for this device as they are very new and seem to be becoming quite popular.

Let me know what info you can share?

Ive managed to get the system ready for a build but I dont know how to get the partition offsets. It has an extra partition called persdata. Ive not seen it on any other 3xxx model ive used. Does yours have it (cat /proc/partitions)? This one scores 10k out-of-the-box. Not even rooted it yet.

I know the chip is pretty new so I doubt there is much on it yet. Ive seen from the Rockchip site that its close to the rk2928 chip, but still no working cwm for it. Did you use the U25GTW cwm from here : http://androtab.info/clockworkmod/rockchip/rk2928/ or have you even got cwm working on it?

I have a GoTab GDT37 with the rk3026 and am looking to Root it; custom recovery and ROMs would be great but at least with Root I can use Xposed modules to add a lot of functionality to the tablet.

How did you guys obtain root?

By the way I have always read that benchmarks are meaningless.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cass1977:
Firstly. don't try to flash a recovery or you'll loose the recovery. There is no working cement for these yet. I know one is being worked on though.

I've always rooted my rockchips with some dodgy Chinese tool. Works on all the ones I've tried. Its all in Chinese and the such it installs is too. The latest update does fix this though. Ill post a link to it tomorrow
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] desarenezitic:
Yes I realised that much, great to hear one is being worked on though.

I did manage to root the tablet with that very tool I think; then I read it was suspicious for installing malware. It left behind a couple of things but those have been checked and no malware and I'm now using SuperSU to manage root permissions. Now I have root I have used Xposed to add lots of custom features but obviously custom ROMS would be great.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cass1977:
The one im working on is built off the rom I got from the people i got the tab off. The first time they sent me the firmware it bricked the device so i sent it back and they gave me this firmware. NOT 100% sure it is correct so im a bit worried about testing it on my daughters tab (she will kill me if i brick it again). It all looks ok but id prefer a cwm before i test it. Do you have any firmware for your device? Any pics, etc? Mine is just called MID this time (was called rk3026 last time).

rooting the Blow WhiteTAB 7.2

I have the Blow White multimedia tablet 7.2.

Tablet BLOW WhiteTab 7.2 (blow.pl) Model# AW132

Android 4.2.2 Kernel Version 3.0.36+ henglong@henglong-desktop #11 Fri Dec 13 10:29:04 CST 2013

Build# rk3026-eng 4.2.2 JDQ39 eng.henglong.20131213.104514 test-keys Rockchip dual core Mali-400 MP2

I don't know if desarenezitic wanted to know how to root such a tablet, because for me it was dirt simple -- because an abd shell from my laptop was a root shell on the device. It's worth checking. Getting adb to talk to the tablet required knowing that the rockchip vendor ID is 2207. I'm going to assume you got this part working ok, but if not, I can explain how to get this to work with a debian linux system. What I know should work with debian based systems such as ubuntu, as well. But if your problem is getting adb to work with a windows system, somebody else will have to help with this, as I don't have a windows system and don't know much about them at all.

I downloaded the 'jelly bean rooting kit' from rockchipfirmware.com developer-tools . I am too new to xda-developers to be allowed to post the exact link.

I found out that on my tablet /system was mounted ro on /dev/block/mtdblock8 by reading /proc/mounts (cat /proc/mounts)

I remounted it rw by typing this command.

adb shell "mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock8 /system"

I found out that I had a /system/bin/su and a /system/xbin/su. They weren't the same file, or a symlink. They were different sizes. I found this odd and would like to know why I had two of them, that weren't the same. I renamed both of them to su.orig using the mv command, so that I could return to them if things went unexpectedly, drastically wrong. But I did not need to.

So then I did this:

adb push SuperSu.apk /system/app/

adb push su /system/bin/

adb push su /system/xbin/

adb shell "chmod 644 /system/app/SuperSu.apk"

adb shell "chmod 6755 /system/bin/su"

adb shell "chmod 6755 /system/xbin/su"

Then I remounted my /system read only

adb shell "mount -o ro,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock8 /system"

So I am not sure if this is going to be of any help to you, but since this chip is new, it might help somebody. If, like me, you have a completely unlocked tablet, then this is the way to go.

I'd be interested in helping getting a CWM for this device.

Hey man, good to have someone else 'on board' so to speak. I managed to obtain root thanks through vroot, the aforementioned dodgy Japenese tool.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cass1977:
Good guide there Gravling. Nice to see an alternative to our dodgy option (But ours does come with some handy tools).

As far as CWM goes. Ive tried the rk30xx cwm build with the no kernel option but none work. The Rockchip site says the 3026 is pin-to-pin compatible with the rk2926(I think thats the one). But I tried the CWM for that too and no luck :( Has anyone tried TWRP? Might be worth a look?

Ive got a rom for my daughters 3026 (Built on untested firmware I got from the suppliers who sent me the wrong one last time :( ) and it looks like the right one for her tab. Its got a 2Gb internal drive and uses the SD as an external sd. Probably should up the 2Gb to 4Gb to maximise space useage. The thing is I WILL get killed if I brick her device and without a recovery of any use im just too scared to try it out, lol.

We need an updated tool for making proper backups for these devices, drum roll please!............ rkBatchTool 2.1! Cant remember who the credit goes to for this but if you search on here youll find the dude! It has a backup function and restore. I havent looked at it yet (as its for windows) but it might be worth a look. Im linking again but I didnt find it, someone else did https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6zKQHcL9FP6cEgwQ3U4VnB0RU0/edit?usp=sharing

Here is the link to the tools you used to root it. http://www.rockchipfirmware.com/developer-tools

I couldnt get them to work on the 3066 or 3188 but i didt try too much as i found the dodgy Jap tool (I thought it was Chinese?), lol.

What we really need is the source for the kernel. If we have that then cwm will be way easier to build (as well have the kernel). We should all be able to request this from the sellers as its a legal requirement. If anyone can get the source for the kernel post a link and PM me. Would be good to get hold of this and start on some mods.

If anyone has details of the drivers for their rk3026s then please post here so we can get an idea of the differences in the devices (Im thinking most will be the same as its a very new model).

Good luck guys ;)

I still cannot post links, and somebody may be looking for this. Right now it is only source for quad-core, not dual-core beasts like ours, but there is talk of making it work with dual core rockchips. And much of the kernel stuff ought to be the same, no matter how many cores you have.

Dont use vROOT to root it! Ive just done a clean build on my 3188 because of boot lag and rooted it in the firmware. Much faster boot and no dodgy apks to worry about. Old boot time 3min, new boot time 50sec-1min.
