With him my phone (ZTE Blade Q) make bootloop.

P.S. Everything is clear. Now I read that your phone is ZTE Blade Q Maxi. I thought it was ZTE Blade Q.
[Blade General] strezovski:

[Blade General] vaserbanix:
can you tell me how you are restored the IMEI when you install lewa rom?

becouse i ported a MIUI rom for Blade Q Maxi but i lost my IMEI

if i restore a backup, i get it back

and if i install the MIUI again, i lost it again
[Blade General] deepside_dj:
Vaserbanix, have you succesfully ported the MIUI rom?

This may be a noob advice but isn't the IMEI underneath the battery on the back of the phone?
[Blade General] vaserbanix:
yes i booted, improoved and i wil post in 30min

IMEI is written under the battery but the soft doesnt read it, only if it is write in nvram:good:

ps. anyway i fix the IMEI
[Blade General] plmng:
To restore your "IMEI / NVRAM" you need to have previously made ​​backup with MTK Drioid Tools.

For taking Backup of your original "IMEI/NVRAM" , just follow these steps:

1. Run MTKdroidTools.

2.Connect your phone to PC/Laptop through usb cable

3. Click on "root" button at the bottom of that program window. (this gives adb shell access for the program to your phone)

4. Click on the "IMEI/NVRAM" button - It will open a pop-up window.

5. Then click on "Backup" button in that pop-up window. (This will backup your original IMEI and NVRAM ) - the backup will be stored in the "BackupNVRAM" folder in the "MTKdroidTools" folder.

Steps to restore the IMEI/NVRAM.

1. Run MTKdroidTools

2. Connect your phone to PC/Laptop through usb cable.

3. Click on "root" button at the bottom of that program window. (this gives adb shell access for the program to your phone)

4. Click on the "IMEI/NVRAM" button - It will open a pop-up window

5. Then click on "Restore" button in that pop-up window. - it will ask for two files (a ".bin" and ".tar" file) ,select the correct files from the "BackupNVRAM" folder.

6. There you go, now your original IMEI/NVRAM has been restored!

Not sure if you need to restart your phone or not , but i recommend that you restart your phone!!!

Thank you. Thanks also to [MENTION=3178159]vaserbanix[/MENTION] for the work. I'll try this ROM. :fingers-crossed:
[Blade General] vaserbanix:
THANKS FOR THAT MUCH CLEAR TUTORIAL

ps. if you are install the samsung rom, you will get some fixes for it in my thread
[Blade General] plmng:
Thank you. I installed the ROM. The first fix (Fix for onscreen buttons to hide) did not work. With the second everything is OK. But... I can't mount second part (1.31GB) of the phone memory.
[Blade General] vaserbanix:
That is mounted like internal memoruy and is not shared

About the script, chek it again if you write it corectly
[Blade General] plmng:
I checked it several times. Everything is true and nothing has changed.:confused:
[Blade General] strezovski:
Maybe its diferent for blade q. I will flash tomorrow and try. :)

Can anyone help me with this?

I have a phone here (Blade Q mini) that stuck on boot (ZTE screen) and stays there for ever.

That means that i can't start android.

Is there a way to install the stock rom without enter the android OS?

From android system recovery maybe,but does anyone know how to install rom from the recovery mode?

The damage caused by installing and using a program that supposed to merge the internal memory with the internal SD so the device would has 2.5GB of total memory as internal memory. The apk name is "meteos-mtk6589-rom-edit-optimized_for_8gb-16gb-en.apk" so if any of you come to try it out,be careful.

Now if anyone know how to reinstall rom or reflash memory or something like that in zte blade Q "WITHOUT ENTERING THE ANDOID OS" please post here to help me out.

PS. I don't know if here is the right section to ask for help for blade Q ,this is my first post here.

PS2.I downloaded from the zte the rom and the instructions for flashing and updating the rom,but when i enter into the system recovery and select update from sd card or sdcard1 i can't find anything in it just (../) this, like an empty folder...

So i can't even update like zte suggests.

PS3.I manage to find the file in the recovery mode apply update from sd card2,the recovery.zip,i press the file it says --Install /sdcard2 ... and after 10 seconds Installation aborted.

PS4.I also tried to install rom in adb sideload mode,the zip transferred to the device the installation begins and then i got this

assert((getprop("ro.product.device") == "P172G10_UK_VIRGIN" ||

getprop("ro.build.product") == "P172G10_UK_VIRGIN") &&

getprop("ro.product.signature") == "P172G10_UK_VIRGIN");

and Installation aborted.

Thank you in advance.

How to fix...

I installed a rom onto my zte blade Q mini( i think it was the LEWA Rom created for the blade q )

Now my phone boots and the notification light works but nothing appears on the screen,the LED backing lights up and so does the 3 bottom buttons.I know the phone is fully working underneath the screen as i can hear sounds increasing and vibrations happening when i change volumes . I cant enter recovery mode as the phone will just reboot.

How can i fix this... any help would be appreciated.

As far as I can see, the stock camera/video app on the Blade Q only records video in MPEG-4 Part 2 (H.263) and not the superior H.264 (AVC). Is there another app, or a tweak that will force H.264 recording for better quality?
[Blade General] plmng:
To me, is very difficult to determine which one is best ROM. Lewa OS (toddos) or MIUI (toddos). According to you, why Lewa OS is better ROM.:). Due to the frequent change of ROMs I do not have time to compare. :)

3. Start SP flash and downoad your backup (disconect your phone)

4. Again wipe data/cache in stock Recovery

Flashing a wrong update.zip

Hello guys, i need your help here, i'm having a ZTE Blade Q and i've wanted to install a better custom rom than the stock one... I've tried some ROM-s which it didn't worked and then i've tried another one but instead of doing it normally, this time a renamed it to update.zip and flashed it with this name. When I restarted my phone it didnt turn on of course, but that's not the problem (I know that it's not compatible with my phone), the problem is now that i'm stuck in bootloop (it's showing me only the logo of ZTE) and my phone is repeatedly restarting without giving me the opportunity to pair it with my computer.... Besides that i can't also use clockwork mode (because i've tried to update it too :D unsuccesfully of course) ,so i'm only having the option of turning on the download mode but i can't find any app with which i can flash the stock kernal and use my phone how it was before :fingers-crossed:

I have successfully rooted my phone with Framaroot, now i would like to install CWM, is it working with ROM Manager or not? I would not like to brick my phone that's why i ask.

Has anybody tried it?

Thanks for the answer.
[Blade General] sebcle38:
My phone build was updated the 30 december 2013 to BQ_ZTEV1.0.0B07 (Before it was BQ_ZTEV1.0.0B06)

My operator only said it was to correct a NFC feature!

I don't know if the update remove the root,

because i have rooted and installed CWM on my phone only after this update!

For the CWM, i only try with MTK Droid tools.
[Blade General] Demens:
That's weird, Zte Blade Q does not have NFC to my knowledge. Maybe they just removed a setting for it or something.
[Blade General] sebcle38:
It's strange! It's on my operator website: "Cette mise à jour apporte un correctif sur la fonction NFC"

In english it's something like "This update brings a corrective on the NFC function"

And in my phone i have some settings to enable or disable NFC, but i have never tried it (In Settings/More)!

On the operator description of my phone it is write: "Wifi, Bluetooth, NFC"

But on zte fr website there is no mentions about NFC

PS: it's a ZTE blade Q, not a mini or maxi one.
[Blade General] Demens:
Okay, i bit the bullet. I installed the update that updated the phone from BladeQ_ZTEV1.0.0B01 to BladeQ_ZTEV1.0.0B02 (Elisa Finland)

Nothing changed, just had to re-apply root. They didn't fix the crappy slow gps.

Launcher Problem

The phone came with 2 launchers in it.

1- Home launcher

2- AVEA launcher

I can not arrange the icons in Home launcher. They are in alphabetical order.

I can arrange the icons in AVEA luncher, but when I restart the phone, they are in alphabetical order again. I have to select " Settings > Display > Theme > AVEA > Icons > Arrangeable" in order to make them as I arranged. That is a long and a boring way.

I installed Go launcher and everything is ok now, but I hate Go launcher and I hate installing apps because they take away ROM and RAM.

Is it poossible to remove all the unwanted launchers and get the phone as I want it? I want to arrange the icons without having to install external launchers. By the way, without custom ROMs.

Also, regarding getting the most of your phone, try Xposed Framework. I have it installed and using modules like gravitybox, tinted statusbar, android tuner (which increases my battery life consistently) and others. Modules like those really make your phone feel like it isn't running a stock rom, but a custom one. Try it for yourself, tinker with them and you'll see for yourself :). In my case, Nova Launcher + Xposed Framework really departs my phone from the ugly and sluggish looking Orange launcher and its bloatware.
