Hmm, now that i remember shoxxy, previous MTK user, told me he drives a train at work & yourself good-self works with aircraft & Netmatrix, we already know & myself works with Home Automation System, has got nothing in common... :D

its really amazing to see everyone with a totally different background comes together here at XDA to share a common passion, Android.... :cowboy:

Just mentioned it at the previous post here, everything i know is already explained at page 1 & you don't even bother to read it.... :rolleyes:

Just look at the release date, how can it support latest armv8 that doesn't use MTK header...

For some who only know how to take but never contribute back, i have nothing further to share with you & you don't even appreciate both of my works... :rolleyes:

Does it mean any 5.xx version (5.0x/5.1.x) but not 6.0?

hi friends......

i have successfully made custom recovery by using link that is provided by bigrammy in his post.

it takes much time to make recovery.......

so don't bother him and make one using your own skills.

Just to be clear to all this thread is [MENTION=4478781]yuweng[/MENTION] thread and is as the title suggests a Development Thread for his program/tool this is not a general recovery thread for requests etc so please respect this:​

Dude you know what you are the awesomest guy I have ever met in my entire life . you just made my long days struggle minimized to 3 minutes . Was struggling for this a very very long time now I have the solutions finally :fingers-crossed:

edit : some issues when I tried to edit linear_start_addr and partition_size . whenever loading scatter file dl region is overlap issues pops up everytime . I also seen your scatter didn't contain a physical_start_addr:0x238000 instead 0x0 only . How is that possible does mine will work the same if I change it to 0x0 ? please any help will be so appreciated

I have some things different

************* Original

- partition_index: SYS9

partition_name: BOOTIMG

file_name: boot.img

linear_start_addr: 0x3180000

physical_start_addr: 0x1D80000

partition_size: 0x600000

- partition_index: SYS10

partition_name: RECOVERY

file_name: recovery.img

linear_start_addr: 0x3780000

physical_start_addr: 0x2380000

partition_size: 0x600000

************* Modified

- partition_index: SYS9

partition_name: BOOTIMG

file_name: boot.img

linear_start_addr: 0x3180000

physical_start_addr: 0x1D80000

partition_size: 0x500000

- partition_index: SYS10

file_name: recovery.img

linear_start_addr: 0x3680000

physical_start_addr: 0x2280000

Is it right to change both "linear_start_addr" & "physical_start_addr" for recovery partition?

I wouldnt put faith in "Magic" Philz/ TWRP/ CWM/ Recovery maker. Anybody who is a novice is expected to just create a customs recovery thro "Magic"?? Have you read elsewhere that the originator of Philz Recovery has lost interest in " Philz"?? He is now supporting TWRP ( so who else is better than him to support Magic Philz Recovery?) There is no easy way to create a customs recovery except for a dedicated modder who uses the same device as you use. And some guys expecting other people to risk their personal device for his MT6735 Recovery?. If I had it I wouldnt give it unless I am paid.

Ha,ha,ha you guys still dont get it? There is NO "Magic" method to successfully make a customs recovery ( there are Magic CWM,TWRP " maker" app) and only very few users have successfully created recovery this way and only if their model coincides with this developers device. You can use the output as a base reference but everythinh else has got to be recode to be workable on your device.

Just mentioned this to oopsgeneration88, he complained to me on pm too, m1s3rys1gn4l has got it working & still i tested it personally & confirmed its working, it is not a matter of downloading a few files, this tool is quite complicated, thats why i don't bother to update it since i don't use MTK nowadays.... It will detect what you have & download the files accordingly, there are 100 over files on about 20 different download links !

I had some problems with Easy Magic TWRP/Philz Installer with a S5 (HDC SM-G900F) that is reported as fake Qualcom and is MT6582.

You utilities report that is Qualcom (because probably in some parte of kernel/system is reported as it).

MTKDroid recognize the device as fake Qualcom.

Is there somethings that I can do it with your utils?

Is there some modification that I can do in boot/system to enable your utils to work with theese device?

Which are the value that your utility check to recognize as Qualcom or Mediatek device?

So seeing as how Copy.com no longer work the application cant connect and download the required files. I just got my first mediatek device and it has literally NO support for it as it is a cameraless Dupad phone. Would it be possible to still somehow get this to work?

Also every time I try running this I get what are amounting to bad magic errors. If someone could point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it. Thanks guys!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bigrammy:
The answer to your question is dependant on which CPU and Android version you have.

There seems to be a few different models of the Dupad Phone so could you tell us which model phone have you got and which CPU mt6????.

Needrom has a few Official ROM's for Dupad HERE

Clearly you're no noob so I can't see you having any real problems getting to grips with the mediatek SoC :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] TheDriller:
Ah. Yes. I knew I was missing something in my post. I was absolutely smoked last night. Got some other Americans with me and we're in Abu Dhabi. I did manage to somehow get the thing rooted which is astounding considering the shape I was in last night.

The phone is the Dupad Story M7. It has the Mediatek 6735. Its a quad core A53 based proc running Lollipop 5.1

The boot.img is a secured one but I unlocked the bootloader last night as well. All I need is some kind of recovery now. I appreciate everything man. And thanks for the tip on where the rom are. I will most likely look at them but if source is available I will probably make my own. Again thank you.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bigrammy:
:laugh: :laugh: Yeah I know how that goes ;)

I doubt you will find the actual Dupad source code anywhere and the best places to find mediatek source would be lenovo sony htc etc etc.

For ports and development Elephone form is a good source and the lenovo K3 here on XDA also member superdragonpt was doing a bit with the kernel stuff.

A quick search will find a wealth of info regarding mediatek SoC with most of it originating from [MENTION=4478781]yuweng[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5186178]carliv[/MENTION] .

Things changed somewhat with the new 64bit SoC's but thanks to the above we can still keep moving forward. Carliv has a TUT's thread for compiling your recovery from source using the stock kernel should you wish also Porting recovery's etc. :good:

Check your PM for good mt6735 donors

:cool:

PS: If your on linux this great tool http://xdaforums.com/chef-central/android/kitchen-superrs-kitchen-t3202296 will save you some legwork modding your ROM if your pushed for time.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] TheDriller:
Yeah I use that almost exclusively for the G4. It was the only thing that would repack the rom correctly. Im trying to find source for AOSP as I have an AOSP version of Alliance that I would like to get going. At least some basic mods for this thing. Its not a bad little phone for 200 dollars. It just sucks that I cant have a camera or GPS where I work. High Security. So this was the best phone I could find without a camera or GPS. I know the GPS is only software disabled. I can fix that. And keep it hidden.

Now I am not familiar with MTK procs. But is source compatible between vendors? I know with exynos and snapdragons they are not. Basically I am asking if it would even be worth my time building from source from a different vendor
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bigrammy:
Hmm not really sure what you mean :confused:

SoC to SoC should be fine providing they are closely related mt6735 and mt6753 are built from the same mediatek kernel source Quad Core and Octa Core respectively so porting between them is no problem Likewise for mt6732 and mt6752 all are 64bit CPU's. Porting from mt6582 & mt6592 maybe a little more difficult.

This thread here http://xdaforums.com/elephone-p8000/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-12-1-p8000-t3259022 has made some big in roads into CM for your SoC and maybe more than enough for your divice since you dont have any of the problem areas on your divice anyhow. :victory:

They would be more helpful than I in this area :o

Maybe you should start your own thread for the Dupad If you need anymore help or info as I don't want to hijack yuweng's thread :laugh:

Hi, I have a REALLY urgent need to fix a problem I have on my ZTE Blade Vec 3G (i doubt you've ever heard of it - it's very unpopular, and that's why I'm having to ask here instead of finding some official site or forum discussion). There is also a Russian version of it (exactly the same phone tho) called ZTE Geek 2. It has an MT6582 chip, which I'm guessing should be perfectly compatible with this recovery.

Anyways, after I installed the recovery using the automatic setup, I let it reboot my phone into the recovery, but unfortunately it didn't work. My phone got stuck on the ZTE boot logo. I left it for 10 minutes as is, still nothing. So I held the power button so it would reboot (not into the recovery, im talking about normal boot up) and, bloody hell, the phone rom itself wouldn't boot up. It would go past the ZTE logo this time, but then the screen would just turn off and I couldn't do anything but reboot by holding the power button. I tried booting up recovery again, by holding volume up + power button until the ZTE logo appeared, but it it didn't go any further than that and was stuck on the logo.

I also tried volume down + power button, even though I don't know what that does. Doesn't seem to do much, but it doesn't reach any ZTE logo. All it does is, after a few seconds of holding the buttons, turns the charging light (basically a red light that turns on whenever my phone is charging and turns green when it's charged over 90%) to green. When I plug it into my computer via USB cable it turns red.

However, my PC doesn't detect anything when the phone's plugged in. I used the adb terminal thingy on my pc and typed "adb devices" and it doesn't list anything. I do currently have a cwm nandroid backup on the sd card, and I'd like to restore it. But I need a recovery to do that. Could someone pleeeeease tell me what I should do to get a recovery onto this damn device? Or at least get my PC to detect it somehow? If you need more info of my phone, rom, etc. Then please ask and I'll provide.

Before to make any changes you should always make a backup (ex. wiyth MTKDRoid):

The program make a backup of your stock recovery. You can reflash it using scatter file of your stock ROM and flashtrool.

Note:; teh changes to recovery didn't make any bootloop to the phone.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] biozbalmet:

How did you get root rights for the device?

I hope not using program like Kingo Root or similar malware program.

If you use it you get a virus/malware inside your device.

The root for this device (clear and without malware) is.

- Unlock bootloader (full root - mtp enabled - nota s standard boot.img that it's a partial root without MTP service)

- Create CWM with MTKDroid.

Hello,

i have a china phone 'Coolpad 1S' with CPU MTK6592T

I would like to flash a custom rom (MIUI V6.0)

I found the rom.

I read that is possible to install a CWM or TWRP recovery,

, but i did not find the recovery.

I read somewhere that the TWRP can be created and installed using the windows application 'EasyMagic TWRP'.

Do you think that this program is suitable? or it is better to generate and install the CWM recovery with MTKdroid?

Or perhaps the EasyMagic Touch installer is better?

I would like to know which is the simplest and safest way to generate a recovery and install a custom rom to my smartphone.

Can you give me some hints?

Thank you!

Lol woops. I actually did use Kingroot.

I believe that it's the wrong way to root.

It quite easy to do but create many risks with device security.

The right way (clean and without risk) is

- unlock nboot.,img (with carliv iamge Kitche - editing default.prop)-

- Create CWM recovery with MTKDroid

- Copying on teh device teh ZIp of SuperSU & busybox and install it via mod recovery.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] biozbalmet:
Hmm. Yeah fair enough, that seems to be the ideal way to root an mtk phone.

Btw, I have a small question if you don't mind.

Is there anywhere I can find a custom recovery (preferrably CWM) that's v6.0.4.4 or higher (basically a more updated recovery than the automade CWM from MTK Droid Tools) for my device (ZTE Blade Vec 3G/ZTE Geek 2)? As you probably already know, I've already tried this Philz recovery guide, but it doesn't work (stuck on boot logo after attempting to boot into recovery).

-I've also tried TWRP Easy Magic Installer which yields exactly the same results --> (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2798257)

I really need an updated recovery otherwise I can't install this rom-->(http://www.mtkroms.com/2016/04/stable-cyanogenmod-13-v2-for-mt6582.html) <-- which I'd love to check out.

I currently have rooted Kitkat 4.4.2 rom with CWM automade ( v5.5.0.4 I think). My device is an MT6582. Thx in advance.
