Rooting and Update.

Well, I tried to root the device and Update it to v1.12 using DallasCZ's process...but i cant do it....can anyone help me with the procedure here who has updated to v1.12 and give me the specific file names and process?
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
1-Download stock 1.12 firmware and put it on your sd card (better to phone memory)

2-download the root+recovery folder and run "V9180 ROOT-RECOVERY1.08.bat", choose 4.

3-boot your phone to recovery and from recovery install the 1.12 firmware.

this should work..cannot test it still waiting form my new device :)

And again if you search and read, before you fill this thread with same questions, i (and all of us) would be gratefull

all these is the same when upgrading from 0.44 or 0.50 to 1.06,1.08,.1.10, 1.12...

Please this is the only international thread about this phone, and there are about 20% of posts, that are the same....when it will continue this thread will be unreadable and i will close it and delete it. I am ready always to help, but not to people who asks before their use their brain.
[General Questions and Answers] musaioso:
Cool bro, I didn't ask you without trying! I tried 3 times to b exact...i already told that! I think i have dumb brain though! :)
[General Questions and Answers] navin_n:
Why you need to root to update your device? If you are in Stock ROM then you can update to V1.12 easily through Stock recovery.

Else if you are in Custom ROM and have already Custom Recovery (CWM) installed, then you can directly flash V1.12 Custom Rom. I guess all Custom ROMs are already Rooted. If you need v1.12 Custom ROM (Rooted + GAPPS) then check my Google Drive.

hey Dallas, what about your bricked device?? did they manage to fixed it in china?

:cowboy::cowboy::cowboy:
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
i didnt say he need to root the device..option 4 in my bat file is to load the 4.4 stock recovery, i thought it is a must to install 1.12 on 0.5 firmware.

The phone just arrived to china, we will see, in meantime i ordered another device, which should be here in a few days :)

DallasCZ, did you get my PM with a link to TWRP? PM system is strange a bit here on xda. Have sent you 2 messages but none of'em appears in sent folder.

[General Questions and Answers] pgflying:
the TWRP 2.8.0.0 only for v9180 to flash V9180 ROM, not support to flash X9180, like mokee or CM. And it do not support OTG to flash, who can solve the problems and develop the new TWRP for X9180
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
what it writes, when you want to install x9180 rom with this recovery? OTG is not a big deal.
[General Questions and Answers] pgflying:
it said the rom is for "u9180, v9180, N9180", but this is V9180. and I could not flash the mokee for X9180 by TD forum.
[General Questions and Answers] DallasCZ:
again, did you try to flash an X9180 rom with this TWRP? If YES what was there written on the screen?

X9180 ROM are universal ROMS which have all the three basebands for each model (U,V,N) and install the propriate version by comparing the model device number. IF there is written that this recovery is for V9180 it does not mean you cannot install X9180 roms :D

Did you install the uncert version? Why not using the CWM recovery, where is no problem?

[General Questions and Answers] pgflying:
I tested it, this time works well thankyou
[General Questions and Answers] fazerg:
OK. Just have a notice for everyone.

Those extra backups. It's good, very good to have backup of them ASAP. But do not restore them unless it's absolutely necessary and one knows why and what he's doing.

Also, I have no idea yet how it's working but there are backups for some partitions built in partition table by factory:

abootbak rpmbak sbl1bak tzbak, and of course modemst1 and modemst2 and fsg supposed to be identical copies of the same thing in theory.

Probably, to get partitions to be restored from those *bak stock recovery needed and will do it automatically.

I will appreciate if someone search this forum and tell us

How is the battery backup ?

Thanks for all the info here !!!

Good job in bringing up all the chinese stuff and getting them make some sense :)

Please let me know how is your experience with the above.

I soft bricked my ZTE V9180, I need little help to unbrick it.

I wiped/formated all data while in recovery(don't ask why), so now I only get ZTE logo when I power my phone. I can get to Recovery menu, but can't acces boot recovery(again stuck on ZTE logo), I only can get to dload mode.

I guess I need to put new ROM via USB cable, can somebody give me few steps pls.

:confused:

[General Questions and Answers] navin_n:
You can download it from my baidu drive. Both ROMs. are there.

http://pan.baidu.com/s/1dDcmBk9

Check in the forum. Someone have tried it and have reviewed it.

---------- Post added at 05:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:59 PM ----------

I guess you are in Bootloader/Fastboot mode. May be you can flash the recovery again through this fastboot.

eg: fastboot.exe -i 0x19d2 flash recovery recovery.img

where recovery.img can be either CWM or Stock.

For recovery image, you can get it from the recovery tool which is in my Google Drive.

Just google it for details.
[General Questions and Answers] NoobZTE:
I am not familiar with this stuff, I get the rest of it, but what does this mean : eg: fastboot.exe -i 0x19d2 flash recovery recovery.img

Where do I do this, with what ? :confused:
[General Questions and Answers] navin_n:
Download this ZIP File and unzip it. Put the device in bootloader mode, then connect the USB cable and run the run.bat file. Install the necessary drivers before doing this. Drivers are in my Google Drive.
[General Questions and Answers] NoobZTE:
I did the following :

1. Downloaded Zip folder and ADB drivers

2. Installed 2 drivers in ADB drivers

3. Unziped Zip folder

4. Volume (-) + power to get in bootloader menu

5. Connected the USB

6. Run "run.bat" file with administrator rights

7. Tried both options

8. It says : 'Waiting for the device'

Tell me if I did something wrong, cuz, nothing happens after that... :rolleyes:
[General Questions and Answers] navin_n:
Try this and check:

1.Put the phone in Bootloader mode.

2. Connect USB cable.

3. Open command prompt and switch to the folder where you have extracted the files.

4. Then type this command and check if it can flash the recovery:

For stock recovery: fastboot.exe -i 0x19d2 flash recovery recovery.img

For CWM: fastboot.exe -i 0x19d2 flash recovery recovery_cwm.img

I did what you said, there is still message :Waiting for the device.

I am really hoping you have few more aces in you sleeves, don't know does soft brick go under warranty in China :(
[General Questions and Answers] navin_n:
Try this:

1.Put the phone in Bootloader mode.

2. Open command prompt (Run as Admin) and switch to the folder where you have extracted the files.

3. Then type this command:

For stock recovery: fastboot.exe -i 0x19d2 flash recovery recovery.img

For CWM: fastboot.exe -i 0x19d2 flash recovery recovery_cwm.img

4. When you see "Waiting for the device", connect the USB cable.

I guess it will flash the recovery. (Be sure the drivers are installed properly)

Otherwise, try the following process as stated in this SITE to install the ROM.

For Nubia APKs, you can copy it from stock ROM and can directly install. For other APKs with Odex files, copy it to the system/app and change the permissions (however you need to have root permission and root explorer)...
[General Questions and Answers] doongoo:

[General Questions and Answers] hans14101:
Which languages does have this version??
[General Questions and Answers] berkely:
Hi,

Also because of this thread I purchased a ZTE v5. In the mean time I flashed it with the V9180_4.4_update_H112.zip rom and all seamed ok. Thanks for the ROM! One thing I need to ask, the phone seems to be quite slow compared with my previous Jiayu G4advanced.

For example when browsing forums I really have to wait several seconds when I scroll back up the thread to display the same text again. See this example (i.imgur.com/TmsoU0t.png). This text was already fully loaded, but I just scrolled down a bit and then up again and it has to reload. This is a simple example which I can replicate.

It's not only during browsing, sometimes it takes very long before the keyboard pops up in various apps. Or it takes several seconds (2-4) before the entered text is displayed on the screen. Compared to the Jiayu G4 it feels sometimes really sluggish which I didn't expect. I really need dual sim so reverting to the stoch ROM isn't an option I believe.

Anyone else notices this with this rom? Or any ideas?

Oh, I also tried thies MIUI rom (miui_x9180_Heavenke_4.9.29_2e0974a389_4.4.zip) but I really didn't like it at all.

Thanks

B.
