Help, I have Qtek 9100 on the O2 network in England, it doesn't have all the O2 customisations so I'm thinking it is a basic Qtek ROM. At the moment it is running the 1.1.7.5. ROM. I'm looking to upgrade the ROM, the 2.1.7 seems to be the best. But despite reading through the forum I have some questions.

1 - Does the Qtek 9100 need CID unlocking? I've read that if I install the Qtek 2.1.7 upgrade I won't need to CID unlock the phone.

2 - Is the latest ROM shown on the Qtek site the 2.1.7. version?. I have tried to log on to that site but its says it does support the IMEI I've entered.

3 - What is Cingular?

4 - Could some one post the link to the 2.1.7 Rom English upgrade?, I've found a step by step guide to upgrading and loads of links to different ROM's But want to be sure that I've got the link to the right one.

5 - Is it worthwhile carrying out the upgrade, and how likely am I to bust my phone?

Thanks in advance for the advice, In short all I want the best upgrade with the least amount of hassle to upgrade.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] minty1978:
Hi,

If you stick with the Qtek rom, you dont need to CID unlock...but it is worth doing for future use...as you can not CID unlock a v2 ROM....yet.

Cingular is a US phone company...like O2, T-Mob etc.

If you follow the instructions, you should be ok, i have done a couple, and touch wood have all been ok.

I think you need a ROM from this lot:

ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Wizard/Roms/Qtek/

but I dont know which one is the newest...most stable etc.

GOOD LUCK :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] EViS:
I'm in a similar situation here, I've currently got the O2 Supplied 2.21.4.1 WWE ROM, most people here seem to be upgrading to other ROM's such as those supplied by QTEK... looking at the Wizard ROMS on the FTP, which one should I be upgrading to? And what are the 'prophet' ROM's on there?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] adam@wizzy:
think I've got it it sorted now, shouldn't need to CID unlock if I use the Qtek 2.1.7 release. Not sure I need any other companies Roms unless someone is going to tell me they have some features I can't live with out ?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harmc0re:
Well, I'm also in the progress of trying to figure this out, but try this:

get an ADB shell, or use a terminal app from the Play Store,

and execute:

cat /proc/mtd

That should give a list of partitions and their dev codes.

Tip: when posting files or code, try to make use of the code tags,

text inside them will be displayed with a monospaced font, so things will be more readable.

See more info here.

Hi...

I wanted to flash a kernel, so I entered into fastboot mode with the "up" volume holded, and then, the blue LED appeared, but then, it just dissappeared! So Flashtool didn't flash anything.

Again, and again, one time and other, and again.

I get bored and decided to flash the ROM I had in CWM, so I flashed it from CWM and now, I cannot turn on my phone cause it makes bootlogo.

Flashtool still does the same thing with my device when I'm trying to flash any Stock Rom or Kernel.

Please, I need the phone for daily usage and for tomorrow.

What can I do? I can enter to CWM but I don't know more things to do to solve this problem...

Help, please.

:rolleyes:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Cwikla:

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ultracity:

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ultracity:
The problem is that I connect the phone to the PC through a USB, okay, while I connect with the USB, the blue LED turns on for a few seconds, but then it turns off, so I can't flash any kernel even if I'm using flashtool or cmd.

Please... help.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ultracity:
Thanks, really...

But nothing changes...

I've installed ADB, SDK and PC Companion but my PC still doesn't recognize the phone, so I can't add my backup to CWM through "mount USB Storage"...

Help please!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ryccardo:
Exactly, install stock ROM through an .ftf and flashtool... afterwards you can copy your backup on the phone and install a kernel with recovery
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ultracity:
But if PC doesn't recognize my phone, flashtool also doesn't do it!, so I can't flash anything, the green LED turns on but in a few seconds it turns off and doesn't flash anything, just turns on the phone that makes bootlogo :/

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP.

I really apreciate ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
Is your boot loader locked or unlcoked?

Have you ever flashed with flashtool before?

Did you install the drivers with the installer in flashtool drivers directory(the one for your phone + falsh and fastboot mode drivers)?

Finally yesterday after three hours I could flash a stock ROM, don't know how changed but I could do it.

FINE ;)

Judgment Came....

There are a lot of people joining xda on daily basis, and there are a lot of repetitive questions being asked which fill up Development threads. Point them here. Feel free to ask or answer questions. Idea of this thread is to get users to help other users with their problems/questions. Please do not spoon feed, but rather point in the direction where that user can find an answer and educate himself

I do have the G2 fortunately, in order to make XDA a better place, I thought I'd open up a help thread for those who need it. I will be able to give lots of help to fellow G2 users. Hopefully some of the experienced G2 users help out on this thread, because it'd make everything easier. Thanks!

First thing first. I strongly advise you to read THIS thread before posting ANYTHING on XDA.

Then, have a quick look at the names of threads in post no2, you might find what you need right away.

For ROM issues please do mention in your post about:

ROM name

ROM version and base

kernel version and its settings

any mods applied on top of it

flashing "style" aka dirty or clean

something like this

...and be sure you have asked before on the ROM thread unless you have less than 10 posts on XDA

Third. The second post will be used to link to threads for some of the most common problems+fixes. You'll be surprised how much time and frustration it will save you in the future.

ASK ANY QUESTION HERE,adb, drivers, superCID, problems, mods etc...... You will either get an answer or will get pointed in the right direction.

No abuse towards noobs tolerated here! No question is stupid in this thread.

***I feel that a little OT is healthy to the success of this type of thread. The people here who help the most will develop a comradery therefore OT is allowed within reason. Common sense will be applied ;)***

Hi,

I'm searching for a new phone to buy and this one caught my eye. I have 3 questions.

Is there anything (bad) I should know about the phone before buying it? All the good points are well advertised and easily available to read about on the internet, but the bad things only surface after you used the phone yourself for a while. (No need to mention back buttons though).

Making a custom kernel on non-nexus devices is always a tad (or more) harder, I hear. Are there already (very) stable kernels available like you can expect to see on a nexus device?

Is there any G2 developer looking into/developing Ubuntu Touch for this device? I'm interested in Ubuntu for Android you see, and it'd be awesome if I can use it on this phone like on my gnex.

HELP.. deleted my stock LG camera app

Hello all,

In a quest to improve everything about my phone I seem to have completely deleted my camera app!!! I was attempting to apply the upgrade to the software that can be found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2471900. I changed the names of the files and permissions exactly as said, rebooted, and poof the camera app was gone. I have since downloaded a third party app to replace it, but I'd like to have the stock app back. No, I did not back up immediately before, I know STUPID!

Any help?? There are great third party apps and I can get by, but thought I'd try.

Thanks!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrfitchett4:
For what you are seeking, nexus devices will be your best bet. They have the easiest developing because of not needed custom code. I really like the G2, but for me, the kitkat update was a bust (battery wonky, lots of random reboots, audio issues), so I went back to stock rooted JB. Very nice device that is very stable, but I don't care about AOSP, if I did, I would have gotten N5. Almost everything can be done through being rooted and xposed modules these days.

are you rooted, on a custom ROM? If you are on custom ROM you can just reflash ROM without wiping data and it will be added back. If stock, maybe someone can make you an apk you can install or the files can be pushed via adb.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android_nashville:
Yea, I am rooted but am stock. I have a stock camera APK but when I try and install it just says "App Not Installed" over and over again. Reset permissions, put in privat_apps folder and no lock. May just have to live with third party... Camera Zoom Fx and Procapture are both good. Thanks!!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrfitchett4:
You would probably have to push it via adb.

something along the lines of

adb push camera.apk /system/app

chmod 644 /system/app/camera.apk

reboot device

If you have an adb folder, put the camera.apk in the root of it, then run the commands. Should work.

You could also have a look at xdabbeb's camera mod. Might be able to get that to install.

You have the international version (D802).

Your phone can be rooted while on jellybean (4.2.2).

Root it on 4.2.2, install a custom recovery (i recommend philz) and then you can install a custom rom. That's the order.

So Yes, you should be rooted to flash a custom rom. (you can still however flash a stock rom via LG tool but I never did it and it's useless since you will be restrained and cannot be rooted if it's kitkat).
