Hello everybody, im new here ;) and since a week i own a Coolpad 9976T - and love it!

I need to update it to 4.4 to have my smart-watch software to work, i already followed the guid to make a backup from larpoux ( Flash recovery.img with mobileuncle).

Is there already a good 4.4 version out? i found versions like - Official_4.4_031_Wonderful.zip.

I dont know how to update with this zip file... (and a bit scared:angel:)

Also dont know if it has at least English language.

Already thanks for al the info in the topic, hopefully someone can help me out :fingers-crossed:

Are there any function that I will lost in 9976T?

Can I flash any 9976A recovery image over 9976T?

Which the latest TWRP version that is working in 9976T?

Which is the latest KK ROM for 9976T?

is there a way unapck locally (without to flah) .cpb file?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MosheDrori:
thx for your prompt answers

I guess I'll order it. but I'm not a developer, so you cannot count on my contribution... :)

I don't play but read a lot, and I think 7" development its just a matter of time. (I'm worried about my pockets but ill get used to)

Can you pls refer the BT? WiFi?

also, where did you buy it? did you order the original cover?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] larpoux:
You do not develop but you can contribute to others work.

For example testing what they have done.

You can count on me and some others if we can help you.

I have not used yet BT. I ordered BT loudspeakers that I will receive this or next week.

If I forget to give you feedback then do not hesitate to remind me

I ordered two of them to etotalk.

The original cover was unavailable so I ordered a PVC back cover with a beautiful fluo green color.

But te result is a huge smartphone. I am not sure I will use it or not.

I bricked my first 9976T and I sent it back to etotalk.

When I will know what they will do with customer support I will post in this thread recomandations or not.

Coolpad 9976T

Hi all,

It is possible the recovery and ROM from 9976T to flash to a coolpad 9976A.

I think the different only is the cpu-takt or?

Thanks for any any hints.

Thanks

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] larpoux:
1 month ago I thought as you : just a matter of cpu clock.

But I tried to flash a recovery built for the 9976A, and I bricked my phone.

I would be glad if someone investigates the differences between the two devices.

But I do not think it is a good idea to try anything dangerous for your phone before having done a complete nandroid backup.

And if you can do a nandroid backup, it means that you have already reach your goal.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] larpoux:
I would like to complete my previous post.

I think dangerous to try to flash a custom recovery built for one kind of 9976x into another one.

But I think it is OK to follow my way that I posted in my post #1 :

- get root access with Odd Rabbit tool

- flash a TRWP custom recovery with Easy Magic TWRP.

I do not see any reason why it will not work.

If someone has informations about 9976a and 9976t compatibility, then please show your experience here.

ROM Canardo-CP9976T-JB01.001

I cooked a ROM for Coolpad 9976T.

This ROM:

. Is based on Coolpad official stock ROM - 4.2.036.P0.140724.9976T

. Is flashable with custom Recovery TWRP or CWM

. Is rooted

. Has Google Play inside

. Does not contain Chinese applications

. Is bilingual Chinese/English (You can add other languages after)

To flash this ROM in zip format you must use TWRP or CWM recovery.

Of course do a nandroid backup before anything else.

Unfortunetly if you have a SIM card installed, the first time you start your new rom, it asks for your PIN code in Chinese before you switch to English. You have to blindly enter this PIN Code.

Please let me know your success or failure using this ROM : this is my first cooked ROM.

Recovery & Rom too for 9976A?

Hi Larpaux,

I had a very important question.

Could I flash this ROM and this recovery to my 9976A?

If it not possible, then I could flash a normal TWRP (I.E. V 2.7.1.0)?

Where I can find a ROM or TWRP for 9976A? I had never found a ROM or a recovery (english or german) by my serch in this XDA- forum.

Second: which kernel is ready for undervolting of my 9976A?

I can the coolpad adress with the SPTool, but never ROM, what I flash or other one is running at the Coolpad.

The flash is OK and too all checks from this SPTool is succsessfull.

Hello,

Unfortunately you are in a bad state. As I told you you cannot mix 9976t recovery with a 9976a device.

Now you can try to flash the official stock rom with The Coolpad Download Assistant utility in fastboot mode.

The official rom is a .CPB file, ready to be flashed with The Coolpad Download Assistant utility.

It comes in 3 parts of a rar compressed file.

If you do not have good drivers, this official site has also correct adb drivers.

I am sorry but the .CPB file that I have ready on my computer is for 9976t not 9976a.

If I have time I will download your file for you, but not now.

You have to

- downlad the 3 parts

- open the first part with winrar

- when winrar asks for the second part you give him the second file

- when winrar asks you for the third part you give it the third file you download

- then you extract the .CPB file

- then you start your device in fastboot mode

- you connect your device to your pc

- you start Coolpad Download Assistant

- you select your .CPB file

- you pray your favorite god until it reaches 100%

- and then hopefully you can boot your device and at least 3e recovery

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] larpoux:
I understood that you can only enter fastboot mode and not recovery.

I was wrong ?

To enter recovery you have to press both volume-up and power until your recovery starts.

To enter fast boot mode you have to press volume1up, volume-down and perhaps home button (not sure)

The device shows 2 lines :

" => FASTBOOT Mode"

Then you are ready to plug your device, and Coolpad Download Assistant starts.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] larpoux:
when downloaded, the 3 parts have stupid names.

But when you select the 3 files to be downloaded, there is a clear indication

"part1" "part2" "part3"

You just have to remember which file corresponds to which part.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Psimo_de:
I think so, if i go per "hare ears tool" to recovery, I see a driod on the back with a red sign and no letters or lines.

It is not the fastboot mode, it is the "factory mode", what I can see (and read)

I go at first in the assistant load the .CPB file and then I go in the power off coolpad and make power on after that icoudl see this factory mode.

I think not that this starts automaticly.

noi it is, all have a very konfues number with a (number) behind. not part1, part2 etc.

only on the side by yulong.com is a other name.

Or you have still a other download side?

yet what: when I go to the "factory mode" then go 3 or 4 lines from leftdown corner to the leftup corner. In the first two lines is written "fast boot mode" and then "factory mode".

Best to do a backup, before, with Titanium Backup, for example.

To install Google Play, you can intall gapps, or a Custom ROM like Canardo-CP9976T-JB01.003.

Hello,

If you flashed a Custom Recovery, like CWM or TWRP then you can install gapps from https://goo.im/gapps/

Be careful to install the correct version, according to your android version (probably "jb" for android 4.2).

You can also flash Canardo-JB01.003 which has the correct Gapps included

In each case, the process is the same :

- download the file you want to flash on your sdcard

- start your device in Recovery Mode

Do not reboot manually because then we loose root privilege.

2 - Create recovery.img with EasyMagicTWRP.

This tool is not able to download the created recovery.img to the device, but recovery.img is really created and this is what we want

3 - Flash recovery.img with mobileuncle.

Hello Psimo.

I am glad that you bought a 9976T. This is really a good device. I am very happy with it.

I solved my root problem a long time ago.

I use successfully "The Odd Rabitt tool".

Some others people owning a 9976A use last version of Vroot, but I had problems with previous versions.

"The Odd Rabitt Tool" is in Chinese but is very simple to use :

http://www.58nc.com/html/root/Coolpad_9976T_7960624O62014_root.html

You can also use RootGenius , but do no reboot, flash a Custom Recovery like TWRP, and then flash my ROM

CANARDO-CP9976T-JB01.003.

But my best choice is the Odd Rabitt Tool.

Please look to my post #1 http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=54669062&postcount=1

If something is not clear i will try to be more explicit.

Do not worry, everything is very simple if you do not do stupid things as i did

(I bricked my first phone and had to buy a second one, because i tried to flash a CWM Recovery who was not OK for my 9976T)

If you want to use the last official stock ROM it is necessary to flash it BEFORE rooting your device.

And before flashing a Custom Recovery.

When you flash the last .CPB file, you will loose your Custom Recovery if any, and will return to factory 3e Recovery.

I will modify my post #1 and add a first step : flash the last stock ROM, before anything else.

Yes i had same difficulties but in fact this is simple :

-download the 3 parts and remember wich file is part-1, which is part-2 and wich is part-3

(The names are stupid, but just rememenber wich one are the 3 parts)

- extract your first part with your windows utility (winrar)

Right click on the first part and use command ’extract here’

- when winrar asks for the second part give it.

- then the 3rd part

You will get the CPB file with the good name.
