Those are all fixes and updates that should have been wrapped together unfortunately. But you will want them... one fixes some problems with reboot, the update fixes a battery drain problem...

Here are a few things you can do, maybe something will help. First, be sure to really follow the tutorial step by step. When you flash the base rom, make sure sptools looks like the screenshot in the link of the tutorial. After that's done and you see the green checkmark, unplug and then do the process again to flash the reboot fix. Don't check all the ckeckboxes when you use the scatterfile, just what's populated with info (i think it should do this automatically). After that's all done and you reboot, start it up as normal but don't link it to your google play account (you can do this later). After the initial setup, update the zip file in recovery mode, reboot, and sign in with your google account.

Let us know where you have problems exactly. But really, if you follow step by step it shouldn't be a problem.

I'll check up on you later...

One question, miui7 Kitkat rom or aosp v3 lollipop rom is better
[Device Reviews and Information] voiceferous:
Which of the OFFICIAL roms is the most stable and bug-free?
[Device Reviews and Information] jonnieZG:
Thanks, you are very kind, but I gave up. I did everything excatly as described, but with no success.

After flashing the AOSP-V3, it would work until the first restart. Then the SIM was not accepted, as if the phone was locked on another operator (even though it is not);

After applying the rebootfix (immediatelly after the AOSP-V3 as described) the phone would not turn on at all, but I was able to reflash it.;

Then I tried the stock ROM with repartitioned memory (using EBR Tweak 1.2). It worked fine until the first restart - after that, no SIM again;

Finally I gave up and reflashed it again with the original stock ROM and it works as it used to.

Now I noticed that the SIM was inside the phone whole the time during the flashing. I just might retry it once more, this time without the SIM...

EDIT: Retried without the SIM - all the same.

CONCLUSION: Flashed back to the official ROM from "OFFICIAL 5.0 – 20150515". At least now the bootup is done below a minute. Before it took 15 minutes literally!
[Device Reviews and Information] giannnis12:
When you install aosp you lost IMEI
[Device Reviews and Information] jonnieZG:
That's a strange behavior.

And how do I keep the IMEI?

Now that I flashed it back to the original - is my IMEI restored?
[Device Reviews and Information] giannnis12:
If you have lost your IMEI go to settings- about phone
[Device Reviews and Information] oroboros74:
giannnis12 is right about IMEI, but there are a number of ways to fix that. I myself used an Xposed module to "mask" the right IMEI.

The first reboot does talk a long time (I think it took mine some 15 min), but that's the system getting things ready. I haven't heard from others that had the same problems. My guess is that if you did everything as described, then either you didn't wait long enough, thinking it didn't work (and that happened to me!) or there's something different with your device.

Having the SIM card inside really shouldn't effect the flashing.

Sorry I wasn't able to help out more, maybe someone else has more insight.
[Device Reviews and Information] jonnieZG:
I did some homework (too late, unfortunatelly) and found out that there's a memory area called NVRAM that keeps info about your IMEI, IMEI SV, your WiFi and Bluetooth MAC and probably some other (important) info. By flashing a new image, you loose that information and that's when the troubles start. What I've noticed by now is:

Unability to use your SIM card (especially if you do the EBR repartitioning + format, which nulls your IMEI data)

Unability to connect to some APs (e.g. it won't connect to an iPhone AP, but it will connect to some other APs)

Voiding your warranty (because a changed NVRAM is easily detected)

Possible legal issues with using a phone with a forged IMEI

...

Guys, I would strongly suggest you to add that warning about the importance of making a NVRAM backup, together with a link to a NVRAM backup/restore guide (there are a few around) before the instructions for flashing.

I'll try to figure out some more details and how to fix the mess that I did by not making an NVRAM backup. I'll share the info with you when I'm done.
[Device Reviews and Information] giannnis12:
if you have read the posts on needrom

I had the same say and here
[Device Reviews and Information] jonnieZG:
There are a lot of posts in this thread, and very hard to not miss an important one.

I didn't make a NVRAM backup before I flashed it the first time. Is there a way to fix that (is it stored somewhere else in the phone in its original state), or it is lost?

I have IMEI written on the back on the phone, but I don't have a MAC anymore (perhaps I could try to find it in my router log). I also don't know how to change IMEI SV (before it was 01 I think, but now it is 78). Is there some other data in the NVRAM I should be aware of?

---------- Post added at 01:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:08 PM ----------

Also, there is the issue of stupid partitioning 2+4. I tried to increase the primary partition to 6 GB, but apparently, when changing the EBR files using the EBRtweak tool or alike, you have to make a "ctr backup / restore" as described here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2777436. If you don't, you will null your NVRAM data.

Hey!

Tried the flashing, but SPFtool wont start it, i did everything accodring to the tutorial so far, and when i should plug the phone in for it to start it, the program does nothing. Tried with different versions of SPF as well, got the drivers installed, everything unpacked, usb debug on, unofficial apps on .
[Device Reviews and Information] jonnieZG:
First of all - did you do your NVRAM backup? If not, don't even start until you do so.

Drivers are just "Loaded" in the Windows, but they are not automatically applied to the phone when you plug it in. You have to do it manually, and it's a bit tricky, because the device is visible in the Device Manager just for a few seconds. See this: http://visualgdb.com/KB/usbdebug-manual/

Is it possible going from AOSP v3.x to MIUI7? Do I need to flash KK stock first?
[Device Reviews and Information] giannnis12:
Go back Kk and next flash twrp recovery from needrom and next install MIUI7
[Device Reviews and Information] LeonPajuelo:
Thanks, but I've just faced another HUGE problem, when I was installing reboot fix (yeah, I was trying to install AOSP again) suddenly SPflash stopped. I've waited for a some minutes. Yeah, rebootfix is very faster, I did it before, so it was strange then I plugged out my mobile. Now my PC doesn't recognize, my mobile doesn't start. Is it become a brick?

Is anyway to revive it?

I got this message when I try to flash it again:

BROM ERROR: S_FT_DA_NO_RESPONSE (4001)

DA didn't send response data to Flash Tool!

Please, help me :(

Sorry my English grammar.
[Device Reviews and Information] giannnis12:
For AOSP you must choice firmware update for flash Rom and reboot fix only download

For everything first click download and next connect the phone
[Device Reviews and Information] LeonPajuelo:
It isn't the current problem, my PC doesn't recognize as a MediaTek preloader anymore. Now it is trying to install some USB device COM driver :'(
[Device Reviews and Information] giannnis12:
Open with recovery?
[Device Reviews and Information] LeonPajuelo:
It is a PRELOADER error. Phone does nothing when I'm pressing VOL- power or any button combination.

My laptop doesn't recognize it as a Mediatek preloader VPORT USB anymore, only as USB device COM.

Some could help me?

I think it's a very hard brick. I've tried to follow this Tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3TmXtOA0IA but I'm not sure if my mobile goes to the META mode. No matter what I do always my phone disconnects and return the message:

BROM ERROR: S_FT_DA_NO_RESPONSE (4001)

DA didn't send response data to Flash Tool!

UPDATE::

Finally, put the battery back, pressing VOL (+ or -) and POWER and praying to Cthulhu my PC recognize it.

I've flashed DooGee LP ROM, now I'm waiting to boot.

I don't want to try to flash AOSP or any rom until I'm pretty sure that it works.
[Device Reviews and Information] giannnis12:
Are you flash rom without battery?
[Device Reviews and Information] DeKiesel:
Is there any possibility to flash AOSPv3 from the phone only? The phones usb-port doesn't work anymore...

I guess no, but it doesn't hurt to ask ;)
[Device Reviews and Information] giannnis12:
The phone goes to recovery? And what recovery, for kitkat or lollipop , if you have recovery for Kk install rom AOSP v2
[Device Reviews and Information] DeKiesel:
yes, I can boot to recovery. I charge the battery with an external charger. No modifications have been done to the phone so far. It is on 4.4.2 stock.
[Device Reviews and Information] giannnis12:
Can you boot on 4.4.2 ?
[Device Reviews and Information] DeKiesel:
Yes, the phone starts normally. I just want to install AOSP v3 but mu USB-port is broken.
[Device Reviews and Information] giannnis12:
Go to setting- developer options and click USB debugging
[Device Reviews and Information] DeKiesel:
And this will repair my USB-port? ;) It does not get recognized when I connect it to my Laptop and it does not charge when I connect it to the charger.

Weirdly the phone is recognized in fastboot. But when I try to flash via SPFlash tool (phone off, click download, then plug in the USB cable) it doesn't start. Can I flash a scatter-rom via fastboot somehow?
[Device Reviews and Information] giannnis12:
Don't start flash are tell any message? Try Firmware Upgrade
[Device Reviews and Information] DeKiesel:
I take the battery out the Phone, click on download, then I put the battery back an connect the Phone. Nothing changes in spflashtool. What do you mean with try Firmware Upgrade :) that i would need to do with spflashtool as well and the Phone is not being recognized
[Device Reviews and Information] giannnis12:
on your phone are you check USB debugging? on flash tool choose Firmware Upgrade

Try to install again the mtk drivers
[Device Reviews and Information] DeKiesel:

[Device Reviews and Information] giannnis12:
I use miui and for use titanium back up I Install kinguser but after 2 days I lost kinguser and can not install again, and can not use titanium
[Device Reviews and Information] sivis1:
you need to flash android 4..4 first,then custom recovery from needrom and then miui.so yes you have custom recovery then.

biggest bug i had in aosp was that after 3-4 times of switching wifi on and off i had to reboot phone because it stuck at wifi off.

options like changing tiles in notification bar .

with miui i can take photo of documents and with aosp they wasnt be clear so i cant read from them,aosp(and stock rom) had something like after photo effect.

miui is better for me,if nothing then it looks better and you can change your themes. [MENTION=6162654]giannnis12[/MENTION] if you delete kinguser you lose root access so you need to keep kinguser or install su and here is how: http://xdaforums.com/android/general/doogee-dg310-voyager2-t2837094/post60982659#post60982659

please my DG310 is bricked, can you read my comment?

Hello everyone, sorry about my bad english , I am writing to see if anyone can help me. I have a DG310 which I had it installed AOSP V3.0.1 and CWM recovery carliv mod. I use the reformat MMC 4x2 and I did the backup system , but I forgot to save it on the computer , nor save on the external sd . After my big mistake ( I had already used the script and gave the format.zip ) The phone will restarted.

I have tried many times to reinstall the AOSP version v3 , original Lollipop , KitKat , gave form to System Cache, Dalvik , I tried without any success to install through recovery or by FlashTools and nothing remains bricked the phone .

I wonder if there is some way to reformat the internal memory to make it in the original way, or if someone has a backup AOSP , or have any suggestions or ideas to retrieve my phone . would be eternally grateful

Hi

I have just flashed the new miui7 rom and saw that I have only 2GB of space...

this is not normal... can someone help me out with this please.

Is there a better rom for this phone?
[Device Reviews and Information] MiSSigNNo:
After reboot, it says: Can't mount /storage/sdcard0

It's kind of broken my internal storage.

Any way to restore it?
[Device Reviews and Information] giannnis12:
you try wrong cnreformat, it is for Lollipop aosp v3.1.2. Flash new rom, try Lollipop v35 or aosp v3.1.2
[Device Reviews and Information] MiSSigNNo:
There is an AOSP 3.1.2?

I tried http://www.needrom.com/download/aosp-v3/ (AOSP 3.1.1)

Anyway I cannot reformat again since i cannot access sdcard :P

[Device Reviews and Information] MiSSigNNo:
As I mentioned, when I boot into recovery it says Can't mount /storage/sdcard0

I've booted into android and I see only a 6Mb partition (instead of the 4Gb partition) and a 2Gb main partition (same as before). Somehow I believe the cnreformat4 has left without format the other partition, and I don't know how to recover.
[Device Reviews and Information] giannnis12:
You flash the rom with download only or firmware upgrade? The second is the best
