Hello developers!

My phone is alcatel OT-991s tct mobile. While trying to root the phone, I bricked it. It is not recognized when plugged in usb. Only blue light comes on.

Need help unbricking it please! Here are the steps to brick it :)

Followed the guide at

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=38337401#post38337401

Created scatter file with MtkDroidTools v2.5.3. Backed up the whole ROM with SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1224.01 and tried to write back only recovery image created by MtkDroidTools. Write failed at some point but the phone was still working fine.

I got the later version SP-Flash-Tool-v5.1352.01 and tried to read the ROM again in order to back it up. This failed at some point and the phone got as heavy as a brick.

Looking back I realized that the scatter file might not have been read correctly by SP-Flash-Tool because the end address is all 0x0000000. It looks fine when opened in text editor and compared to other scatter files from the web.

Tried playing with meta mode (by pressing down, up button, menu button etc) unsuccessfully. There are 5 test? points on the back of the phone after removing the cover.

Thanks!

Hi :)

Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. I'd suggest you take a look at the following thread:

UNBRICK,ROOT,INSTALL A CUSTOM ROM for Alcatel OT 991X

Good luck!
[XDA Assist] delforza:
Thanks for writing! That is very useful thread. I hope to be able to use it, but currently the phone does not get recognized when plugged into the usb!

Did you ever find one? I need to get one too
[General Questions and Answers] Da9L:
So i basicly need this for my mother.. She really does not understand how to use an android, and for some reason she keeps setting her devices ringer volume to silent, which means she does not hear when i try to call her. Not only that but she screws so many things up on this phone, like removing shortcuts from the launcher and so fourth, that i need to come to her twice a week just to fix things. It would be nice if there were some tool that lets me control her phone from my pc, or maybe my android device. Like teamviewer but for Androids.

Can you guys assist ?
[General Questions and Answers] alray:
What about using Teamviewer?

and for the ringer on silent mode I know how to do it easily, use Tasker.

Create a profile "When phone receive SMS from X contact with Y message ---> Task: Set ringer volume to 10."

or even simpler:

"when phone receive call from X contact --> Task: set ringer volume to 10"

I'm using this on my phone and its work great. I work on a night shift and my phone is in silent mode but my GF can text me a private code to activate my ringer if there is an emergency and need to call me.

Same can be done to activate teamviewer client:

Create a profile "When phone receive SMS from X contact with Y message ---> Task: set wifi and/or mobile data to ON and launch team viewer client"

You'll oubvisouly need to set a permanent ID and password for the client so you can automate the process.

Then you'll be able to send a sms to that phone to activate its wifi and team viewer client, you enter the password on your side and can access the device remotely.
[General Questions and Answers] Da9L:
Tasker would be a solution for many of the things. But i would like a more "total control" solution of that is possible. Team Viewer for Android does (as far as i know) not allow me to control an Android device but allows my Android device to control computers (not the other way around)
[General Questions and Answers] alray:
No, you can control your android device on your computer.

Download TeamViewer 10 on your computer and TeamViewer QuickSupport on your Android + the QuickSupport module for your phone brand.

Then you can use tasker to remotely launch TeamViewer QuickSupport on the phone and you can then connect your computer to the phone and take control. But someone will have to click "I agree" button twice on the android to be able to control it.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Micrologos:
I'm using a Tab S 8.4 LTE, having an issue using Google Maps. When Location is in power saving mode, trying to find my location in Google Maps just gives me a dialog box asking me to turn on GPS to improve location accuracy, and after I decline the blue location button simply refuses to work. Google Maps is the only app that has this problem, every single other app that needs to find location has no problem using Power Saving Mode location service to find my location, whether it's a weather app like Accuweather or a map app like Citymapper, or even the browser version of Google Maps. When I choose to turn on GPS it actually does find my location immediately, while the device is still searching for a GPS signal. I already tried clearing cache and data and reinstalling Maps. My Tab S is my only device that is having this problem. Does anyone else get this?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pdolton2000:
The thing is pal by declining the only thing it has to work off then is your WiFi and mobile data which takes longer.

For anybody who disagrees with the wifi not being usable as a location aid well it surprised me to find that when google sent those vans around taking those lovely detailed photos of your street thats not all they were after. They also logged every wireless network they went past with their location at the time so that if needed you only had to have wifi switched on and an internet connection to give a pretty accurate reading of your location...

And theyve gone even further...they dont need to send vans out to keep this list updated.., they actually use your phones ...so you become a network information gathering tool which sends back to google any wifi networks you find combined with the strengh and location you were in

Sneaky blighters :)

So in answer to your question either turn on gps or turn on your wifi and mobile data...or just wifi if its connected to the net.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Micrologos:
It doesn't just take longer, it just doesn't work at all in any way, even with both WiFi and mobile data turned on. Instantly works when I activate GPS, even if I'm indoors and the device still hasn't find a GPS signal to refine the location.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pdolton2000:
out of curiosity does this web based version work for you

http://ctrlq.org/maps/where/

it just picked up my laptops location nicely, i know its not google maps app but it will work in the same scenarios you could need it in.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Micrologos:
Like I said everything that isn't google maps app, including the browser Google Maps, has no problems. In desperation I tried a factory reset too but that didn't work. I just wondered if its only me who is having this issue.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pdolton2000:
Okay ive just understood what you meant, so i changed the location to power saving mode and went back to google maps, i indeed got the esame message about turning on gps, i selected no thanks and do not ask me again...but it wasnt working, i then went back to l9cation settings and clicked

"Google location Reporting" and it had set "location reporting " for the device to off, i turned it to on and viola location working off mobile data and wifi.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Micrologos:
Thanks for the help. Sadly turning location history on didn't solve it for me for whatever reason but its good to know it's not just my device being faulty somehow.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pdolton2000:
I didnt turn location history to on just location reporting...sorry to hear its now workin m8

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] fun_key:
I ll be honest, I didn't read your entire post :-)

Just wanted to point out that in order to send an encrypted email to someone, you need to have his public key. Those keys are usually stored in a corporate directory, which need to be accessed in order to send the mail.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] MrGAN:
Thanks for your comment!

This is quit clear but for simply signing my own mail, just my privat key is required. As long as this is not working, encryption will also not work.

So the main problem is that Outlook is matching the certificate to email account, so most likely something with the certificate contained information

seems to be wrong...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] MrGAN:
Just for the records - as it seems I just soliloquise:

So I managed to get it working with Outlook!

I also successfully imported the same p12 certificate on my hermes.

For Pop3/SMTP accounts in WM6:

Receiving encrypted mails is working, the automatic s/mime decryption works fine.

But sending: under message options of a new email, encryption and signing is disabled !?!

Same for my synced outlook folder.

Could that be an issue with WMXL v0.21 ??

Maybe I should take BLACK 2.0 for a spin - it seems to be newer...

Or is s/mime encryption/signing only supported for exchange accounts?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] MrGAN:
... an other thing (outlook releated)

- please check the level of thrust for your own as well for imported certs

if the trustlevel is not set correctly outlook will refuse it (error: something

like certificate is invalid) - normaly that means a CA is missing the sequence

of signing CAs from the ROOT CA to the personal certificate

- If you receive a signed email: if you click left on the senders name and

select add to contects the cert is added to the new contact as well, as

soon as you save it, and the contact already exists select update.

Maybe this is the reason why using s/mime on WM6 is not supported as the contact database is not storing any certs ?!?

So its only working together with Exchange?

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] karlh:
Hi,

I use WM 6.1 on my Hermes (CRCs stable version) and want to use e-mail encryption.

But it is not possible. Import of the private key was OK, now I tried to send a message to a user with a public key in GAL, but failure is "Error Crtifcates missing".

So I import the private key to my contact, but same failure.

Why does the device not find the public keys?

Karl
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] tonyb15re:
You need to import the certificate/public key of the recipient, also check the Key Usage extensions within the certificate, if they dont have the correct ones for e-mail encryption then your stuffed.
