Phone not recognised in MTKDroid tools but before trying to flash I made a complete backup using MTKDroid tools
[Ornate TrueSmart] Ierlanfdan:
I cant; keep connection. Every time at random % the port dissapears from device manager. I thought a physical connection issue but I trued new cable, another cradle, tried this firmware, other firmware, sp tools 3.1 and 5.x even flashing back to backup (which worked immediately)

Any advice?
[Ornate TrueSmart] kuronosan:
You're missing files, that's why.
[Ornate TrueSmart] Maszter93:
try first method with zgpax firmware, BUT KEEP the ZGPAX rom scatter. good luck :good:

check all file path, make sure nothing is wrong

@lerlanfdan plug the watch to usb after choose firmware/upgrade
[Ornate TrueSmart] Ierlanfdan:
Noop, I saw a old post of myself where I had the same issue. I tried inserting USB after and that worked, but Z whatever firmware does not get past boot logo. The retrosmart firmware had the issue that it goes into charging mode and that is what it does in this rom too. So I guess i have to wait for a flashable image.

Edit: I sort of succeeded by flashing the ZGPAk (which only showed boot logo) and then pulling the battery and then flashing this firmware. Everything went fine but it (SP Tools 5.1) gave me a 1401 Error.

(Again, I have done it twice. just to make sure)

Now it is dead. As in it won't start. I can still flash it.

BTW SP tools 3.1 gave a warning about system.img overwriting some memory area's. Any ideas?

I probably still have to wait for a flashable image.

Edit2: So at least one other member has the same issue (See G+)
[Ornate TrueSmart] rockabilly:
Download @ Iconbit website the Callisto 300 rom and try it. Works for me on a Simvalley AW420...
[Ornate TrueSmart] Ierlanfdan:
Not KK...
[Ornate TrueSmart] rockabilly:
Thats right, but then your TS will start ...

Then you can try it again with ZGPAX KK.
[Ornate TrueSmart] Ierlanfdan:
I succeeded. It's a pre-may 512 MB thing.

For pre-may, developer edition:

Symtoms: unstable connection. Intermittent failures when flashing.

If you try with ALL Tools 5.x you will get an error 4101 or 1401 after CRC check at the end.

Solution: Flash ZGPAX firmware with openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0-Pre-May.img AND Flash Tools 3.1.

Don't forget to check DA DL ALL with checksum. Press Firmware>Upgrade and connect watch.

BTW, you can choose a file in 3.1 by clicking on the name (E.g. clicking "recovery" opens the choose file window)

If you already have the unstable connection it takes a few retry's. Eventually, after 2 or three times it flashes stable.

Recovery will work afterwards but watch won't get past ZGPAX boot logo. But flashing is still stable after that.

Then pull the battery or try adb reboot bootloader.

Then again with Flash Tools 3.1 load the scatter from KK202 firmware or use the updated-KK-Omate version.

DO NOT LOAD the system.img from KK-Omate-versin since it's made for 1 GB units.

(You immediately receive an an error if you try)

Use the one from KK202.

Again, use openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0-Pre-May.img for recovery image.

Flash, have fun.

It first will show TruSmart boot logo and then Unova's.

can anyone create a 512 MB ready system.img for the KK-Omate-version?
[Ornate TrueSmart] knosalaa:

Anyone successfully managed to upgrade to KK 4.4 and could you please post exact directions and required files as well as which hardware components will not work after KitKat upgrade?

Thank you
[Ornate TrueSmart] kuronosan:
You need to add cache + userdata partitions into the firmware or you'll keep getting that error.
[Ornate TrueSmart] stealph:
Thank you! I added the partitions then started the flash, got to yellow bar 59% then brom error : S_FT_DOWNLOAD_FAIL (4008)

also something about press CTRL ALT and T for debugging, so I pulled the battery pressed and held CTRL ALT and T for the entire duration

to yellow 100%.

powered on and Unova logo but no boot, pulled battery still no joy so I've put it on charge after plugging it in and it showing 1% battery!

I'll update when fully charged.

Couldn't wait! luckily I'd modified my charging cradle so I could access the buttons so powered to recovery and factory reset,

so far so good!

Flash the Z8 kernel.
[Ornate TrueSmart] Ierlanfdan:
[MENTION=1337268]kuronosan[/MENTION]

what are you using as a development kitchen? I tried to make the system.img of the official KK Omate smaller (800+MB)

so it would fit in 665.600 MB of space, just like the KK202x version., which is flashing ok.

The files are just some 400+ MB big so I think the rest of it is padding or whatever.

I can get the KK Omate version system.img to extract under windows but i have no idea how to repack under windows.

When using Ubuntu it errors out. Simg2img went fine but mounting it gives a (loop0): VFS: Can't find ext4 filesystem.

In the meantime I was trying to find some KK drivers for the Bosch Bmm050 sensors I have. I was thinking that source drivers coming from some MTK KK (phone) Firmware would do the trick. Maybe some tweaking is needed but it's a start.

It's probably not that simple but please enlighten me on this one.

I just want to learn.
[Ornate TrueSmart] Shonky*:
I used Android Kitchen to generate a zip from the original Unova ROM. It only half worked. The updater binary it used would not run in TWRP - I'm not sure why. I took the updater binary from (I think) one of Loki's ROMs. Then the problem was that the syntax of a number of the format and write image commands was slightly different in the actual script it created. There were also a few files referenced in the updater script that were missing so I just copied them over from the Retrosmart ROM.

Android Kitchen also only supports boot.img (kernel) and system.img (i.e. /system). I don't think it supports flashing any of the other bits like the bootloader etc. That should be possible to implement in the updater script I think but you'll have to do it manually.

I'm by no means an expert. I just had a play for a couple of hours a few days ago with the interest of 1) learning myself and 2) maybe creating a flashable zip.

I have these physical sensors noted (listed by mySensors in the RetroSmart ROM):

BMA050 – 3 axis accelerometer – Wokring

MPU3050c gyroscope

BMM050 3 axis magnetic field sensor

The others are virtual sensors created from the physical ones (I presume to provide a standardised interface to apps etc)

Rotation Vector Sensor

Gravity Sensor

Linear Acceleration

Orientation

Corrected Gyro

These appear to be largely supported in /lib/hw/sensors.default.so but of course it's not as simple as just copying this sort of file (shared object) since it will not necessarily line up with everything else (I think).
[Ornate TrueSmart] kuronosan:
Ah, you see... the system partition was imaged together by Dees Troy in Linux. I don't know why it's so large but that's the unfortunate side of things.

The system image isn't as important as the system itself. So, theoretically, you could flash everything else and then just restore the system via TWRP and it should be fine (you would have to wipe /system first).

As far as the sensors, it may not be as easy as copying libraries. It could be, considering the IRONMAN uses the same chipset and binaries as other x201 watches, but it may also be kernel-related. Since everything including the LCM works, I'm more inclined to believe it's the libraries compiled in the kernels and not the ones in the system folder.

If anyone comes across an updated kernel, let me know.
[Ornate TrueSmart] Shonky*:
*Does* the IRONMAN have the same sensors? Are all the basic sensors built into the main MT6572 SoC? If so they should just work, unless the original IRONMAN ROM is borked right? Someone mentioned earlier there was a later version available and there were lots of issues with this ROM.

I think it is more than just the libraries. The kernel *should* produce some entries like /dev/bmm050 or similar shouldn't it? i.e. the actual drivers need to be part of the kernel or kernel modules.
[Ornate TrueSmart] kuronosan:
The deal is that this is a very early model I obtained the ROM from. Unless someone is willing to send me one or dump theirs, this is all we have.
[Ornate TrueSmart] Ierlanfdan:
Can we compare how the kernel handles the sensors in JB?, E.g. is /dev/bmm050/ created (or maybe it has a different name)

and then look for similar entries in KK kernel. It's sort of a long shot.
[Ornate TrueSmart] Shonky*:
Not really how it works. Even if you know how the devices are created, it doesn't help you "find" them in another kernel version. It's easy enough to work out which files are involved if any - but that doesn't solve the problem.
[Ornate TrueSmart] Ierlanfdan:
If I am not mistaken we have some sourcecode for the KK kernel right? What do we miss?
[Ornate TrueSmart] Shonky*:
We do not (that I'm aware of). Not even Omate have it in a complete form. The problem comes back to Mediatek not releasing the source essentially or if they do it's some hacked up thing that won't compile anyway.
[Ornate TrueSmart] Ierlanfdan:
I read that a manufacturer will give his device to Mediatek and afterwards is provided with prebuilt binaries. But I also read they (Mediatek) áre using 1 source for all their products and by screwing and shuffling around with kangs and binaries it sort of manages to make it work.

Right, well, for the sensors to work.

Kernel. We need to find a way to build one from source. I read somewhere on XDA that someone was able to build KK for TrueSmart (Only kernel) Or create a way to do so.

We need support in the kernel for those specific not working sensors. That means we have to edit the initial config probably, change what's need to be changed in a few files probably and rebuild the kernel into a boot.img and we have to test it. Right? (Things like GPIO, specific chip settings or whatever we encounter. Right? )

Find the drivers and add them to the device tree and with some magic and hacking and patching make it work.

Anything I forgot?
[Ornate TrueSmart] Shonky*:
You need more magic. Without Mediatek support you are basically guessing. No one has successfully built a kernel for the Omate. The source simply doesn't exist currently let alone datasheets/schematics etc to set GPIOs, registers etc. You are trivialising a lot here. It's not just changing a few text config files with what's available.

Note that kernel != Android version exactly. Android sits on top of the kernel with specific modifications to the kernel for Android.
[Ornate TrueSmart] kuronosan:
I have 6572 kemel source on my got. The problem with mtk is that everything is device specific and unlike other companies they charge a lot for binaries.

Most, if not all of the mtk devices you see were compiled to spec with preexisting images. That's why ROMs are so easy to come by and custom kernels are not.
[Ornate TrueSmart] Ierlanfdan:
How big or small you think is the chance that you will get the sensors to work with this source?
[Ornate TrueSmart] kuronosan:
Like I said. In some cases on EnSec it was a matter of us copying files.

It could be that easy. It could be harder.

Help me, I need the original unova ironman firmware of 320*320 1G/8G 3G call/data

Help me, I need the original unova ironman firmware of 320*320 1G/8G 3G call/data version.

Recently I bought this 320*320 version product which is capable of 3G(wcdma2100) call/data.

The 3G voice calling worked well, but the 3G data connection didn't work even though the indicators showed 3G data was on.

So I found a different firmware(IronMan_1.1_2.2.rar, build# unova ironman v1.1(2.2)20141016) which might be modified and flashed it into mine.

But the situation got worse. Now the 3G voice call doesn't work, either.

And I didn't backup the first installed factory firmware(build# v1.1_foreign), so I can't go back to the first state.

If there is anyone who has the original 320*320 version firmware,

please share it with me.

New to rooting and playing around with the flashboot.

I have a pure edition Moto X lollipop. I decided to unlock (successful) and root (unsuccessful). Also, not sure if I enabled USB debugging before I started messing with fastboot. Now that I'm in loop, I cannot enable it.

My phone is now in constant loop, more specifically stuck on the blue world screen. It will not go any further. Here are the different solutions I've tried that have come up short:

- Fastboot menu cannot access "Recovery mode" it simply says "boot up failed."

- Tried flashing "openrecovery-twrp-2.8.3.0-ghost.img" file but I believe something must be incompatible and have now screwed up my system.

I just simply want to put it back to stock. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please tell me I didn't stupidly brick my phone.

Hi,

I'm new here so tell me if this is the wrong place for this...

I am on the final stages of making an android app for personal use, but decided to put it on google play for free in order for it to be available to others too. Unfortunately it costs money, so I decided to add an ad banner from AdMob. I figured that this way I would eventually get back the fee for putting it up. Today I got an e-mail from AdMob that my account had been suspended because "publishers must not click on their own ads in their mobile applications, and must not artificially inflate the impressions or clicks the ads receive, either through automated or manual means.". Seeing how the main purpose of the app is my personal use, impressions from my phone are inevitable. Is there another ad service for android that would allow me to actually use my own app?
