Hey [MENTION=4569024]sirdickens[/MENTION]

Thanks for the tutorial. I have the LeTV x600 with 07s official rom and all I want is twrp so I can root. Is it possible to flash ONLY the recovery img of twrp with the sp flash tool by unticking everything else in the list on the flash tool? Ideally I want to end up with 07s and twrp. Otherwise if I do have to flash the entire SP Flashtool ROM will I be able to OTA update after that?

Thanks again!
[Device Reviews and Information] sirdickens:
With the provided Scatter file it is unfortunately not possible. It is differently partitioned. That's the reason you need to use "Upgrade firmware" option with flash.

There is BB72 ROM version 07s available now. So you can flash that after you get TWRP. Cheers!

[MENTION=4569024]sirdickens[/MENTION]

Finally I flashed 007S.. ( I tried also 006S ) .. both BB..

My problem is now that my GSM doesnt work... cannot call and nobody can call to me.. I can surf only via 2G but SIM is "Dead" .. any solution ? I bought today a new sim card...the same problem...
[Device Reviews and Information] sirdickens:
I hope you didn't use format all + download because this can **** up your NVRAM and you can lose IMEI numbers....

Otherwise I don't know what could be the problems since I didn't experience any problems like that
[Device Reviews and Information] dudek1:
Hi again,

Thanks for the answer. I agree about the phone.

yes i mean the stock music app, called Xiami. It was on my 4s and now 7s too.

Soo... 7s won's cast my screen properly :/ YouTube and other casts work fine but not the screen cast.

I must also ask about the coming updates. Will i be able to update from 7s once a new is out. I have loaded 7s (from letv site as mentioned in this forum) with the standard bootloader, only renamed the file to "update". I dont have TWRP or other stuff, only the 7s file trough standard bootloader. It is important for me so i know whether to install a TWRP, in order to update in the future, or will the updates come automatically?

Thanks!
[Device Reviews and Information] andrew.warneke:
Thanks. I need help urgently now... I just followed the instructions in your previous post to the letter and I now have a Letv x600 which won't switch on, all it does is a short vibrate every 30 seconds or so. The Sp flash tool said the download was successful.

Help!

[MENTION=4915857]Burs[/MENTION] did you ever solve this? I'm in the same boat as you... Any help would be amazing!
[Device Reviews and Information] sansanc:
Yes, you can use the own LeTV system update app to update the system. To me, i always update via TWRP, because i prefer a really clean system. If you don't wipe everything before an update, some bugs can arise. Thing is, sooner or later, you will want root to do stuff, therefore i would install TWRP.

Bricked! Please Help!

Hi guys

I did the unbrick process outlined by [MENTION=4569024]sirdickens[/MENTION] yesterday (followed to the letter) and my phone has, since then, been stuck in a state where I can get to original recovery, but nothing else. If I switch it 'on' it goes into a cycle of vibrating every 20 seconds or so. If I plug it in to usb it just switches constantly between mtk vcom preloader and mtp device drivers installing (and keeps failing).

I have continued to try to use sp flash tool to flash the recovery rom but no luck.

PLEASE help me. I have no idea what to do.

Thanks
[Device Reviews and Information] sirdickens:
I recommend you this then. Try to reflash stock ROM with stock recovery (using SPFT) with "FIRMWARE UPGRADE" and please guys NEVER USE FORMAT ALL OPTION!. And try to boot. This is stock ROM and it should work.

If that works, then just copy scatter file into folder where you donwnloaded TWRP recovery.img. Now start SPFT again and locate to the scatter file you copied to custom recovery folder. Now only recovery should be cheched, and use "DOWNLOAD ONLY" option. Maybe something went wrong in flashing process (it is not imposibble).

I have yesterday did same process I explained to two of my friends and both phones working perfectly fine
[Device Reviews and Information] andrew.warneke:
OK thanks. Which version of SPFT should I use? Which stock rom should I use? I have only used firmware update option. I have tried to flash the recovery rom with original recovery (no twrp) about 20 times already using the SPFT from the folder I downloaded.

I has not worked. Every time it says download OK with green tick. I unplug the phone and switch on and all I have is a black screen with the phone pulsing a vibrate every 10 - 20 seconds. If I volume up and power button I get into chinese recovery
[Device Reviews and Information] sirdickens:
I would really want to know as well, since I didn't have any problems like that. I have done procedure on 3 phones already and no problems whatsoever.

I only found this one ROM I used and which has link in my tutorial to be spft flashable ROM and it definately works (3 times worked on 3 phones to be exact).

Also you can find flash tools in same ROM package. I used everything as described.

I suggest you one more thing. Hook up phone to charger and let it sit for about 2-3h and try turning on phone again. If it still doesn't work, try following procedure I explained once more. I have updated it to remove any misunderstanding.

I hope it helps,

Cheers.

letv x600 dont boot

Hi .. I have update my phone from 5.0.003 to 5.0.007 but soemthing get wrong.

I use the file form Needrom letvx600 from 09/24/2015 and rename it into update.zip put it into the root of sd and start the "update system with zip" from the EUI.

I checked the clear all user data ... and the update start all finished fine but when the phone reboot it has only a black screen.

Now it dont boot.

I can only get into EUI with Power + UP key

Now my question how can i connect into internal sd card to put a new upgrade.zip (Rom) ?

Is it possible to update it with the latest spflash tool or some other way ?

Best regards
[Device Reviews and Information] sansanc:
You can try installing TWRP, but it appears some people are having problems with it! My apologies, but i never experienced that and therefore can't help... I have 7S installed and have 0 problems with it. Something really tells me, that LeTV have changed something on the phones themselves. We first users, are lucky.
[Device Reviews and Information] andrew.warneke:
Looks like you and me are in the same boat with this... The only thing I haven't tried is to flash a new rom via OTG cable. I don't have a cable, so as soon as I get one I'm going to try and I'll update you on how it goes.
[Device Reviews and Information] polaris2020:
Hi.. thanks

is the otg cable something special for x600 or are they all the same ?

I will wait for solution when you got one .. thanks

best regards
[Device Reviews and Information] andrew.warneke:
AFAIK it's just a USB female to USB type-C. I'm going to just a female to female adapter and put it on the end of mu charge cable and see if that works

letv x600 dont boot

I forget to write letv x600 is the 3GB RAM και τα 32GB ROM version. (are the roms maybe different ?)

I try unbrick file from "androidiani.com/forum/modding-letv-x600/486753-pacchetto-per-lunbrick-x600" it dont work.

Than i try the "androidbrick.com/download/letv-x600-unbrick-rom-scatter-file-sp-flash-tool-mtk-drivers" this one flashed and finished fine .

But when phone try to boot there was still the same problem. And now my EMUI is in Chineese before it was in English, but now when i plug in the usb cable i have connection to letv memory (curiosity only 1gb).

I try put a rom (update.zip) inside and when i start the update it dont finsh, it stops at 10% and goes back to the EMUI.

Have some a solution ?

Best regards
[Device Reviews and Information] polaris2020:
Hi ... I found a solution.

My Phone is back to life.

I just flash with spft the boot.img from the official 006s version.

(you must replace the boot.img in the directory of donwloaded file from #androidbrick.com/download/letv-x600-unbrick-rom-scatter-file-sp-flash-tool-mtk-drivers# and run checksum_generate.exe than flash by the normal way only boot.img !)

Now my Phone is back to life ... the bad thing is my Phone has the chineese vesrsion 002s, but never mind i will find a solution for that !

Hope i can help some people with the same problem.

Best regards
[Device Reviews and Information] andrew.warneke:
awesome! where do I get the boot.img file? did you flash in spft with update firmware or download option?
[Device Reviews and Information] polaris2020:
hi .. i get the boot.img from needrom (official vers.006)

and with SP_Flash_Tool_exe_Windows_v5.1516.00 download option

but before i have flash from this link all (not only the boot.img) "androidbrick.com/download/letv-x600-unbrick-rom-scatter-file-sp-flash-tool-mtk-drivers"

You, sir, are a hero! My phone is alive again! Also on 2s, but I'm going to try to flash twrp in place of recovery in spft and see if that works, then flash a rom via twrp. I got into this mess because I really want root.

Thanks so much man!
[Device Reviews and Information] polaris2020:
Hi my friend, thanks for your nice words.

Please tell me when you get twrp work and get your phone rooted.

Maybe you can help me too.

[Device Reviews and Information] andrew.warneke:
will definitely do so. I tried two ways tonight via spft, neither one worked.
[Device Reviews and Information] polaris2020:
Maybe someone can make a LeTV x600 Unbrick Rom like this one "androidbrick.com/download/letv-x600-unbrick-rom-scatter-file-sp-flash-tool-mtk-drivers"

but with lates official rom 007s or custom firmware 007s with Gaps and without chineese apps.

I think this will be the best solution.

PS: i try twrp 2.8.6.0 / 2.8.7.0 and the 2.8.7.1 no one works for my phone never get the messege fastboot on my phone only a blackscreen.

and the strange thing is at Windows device manager the device change when it goes to fastboot(blackscreen) form "ADB interface" to "ADB Interface HTC dream" , i think that this is the problem or is this normal ?

I've just ordered my LeTV 1S X500 guys. Anyone have any ideas if it'll be easy to work with like the X600? I didn't end up getting the X600 due to the release of the X500.
[Device Reviews and Information] polaris2020:
OK found solution !

I flash with spft (donwload option) the recovery from the chineese version 2.8.7.1 and it works !

(2.8.6.0 and 2.8.70 dont work for my phone)

Now i have TWRP (but chineese )

now i am one step away from custom firmware 007s !

Ok... found it on baidu...

you're going to have to follow what [MENTION=245376]Polaris[/MENTION] did regarding flashing the recovery rom from androidbrick and then flashing the 6s boot image. It's the only way. His instructions are a couple of pages back.
[Device Reviews and Information] popo72:
Hi guys,

I’m trying to understand the reason why some letv users are not able to install TWRP, therefore I would ask to all of you who had this problem: did you receive the phone in pure “stock” rom condition or equipped with sort of modded rom just partially translated and manipulated anyway?

My theory is that the reason why recovery doesn’t install is due to bootloader not compatible with kernel they install and this is because the modded rom from China is quite old and not flashing bootloader.

Thanks in advance!
[Device Reviews and Information] MHDestination:
My device has this problem. It is only compatible with TWRP 2.8.7.1

I've got my x600 (32GB) from Pandwill. It came flashed with a multilang modified stockrom 5.0.0002S and gapps preinstalled.

But I think that is not the problem.

I was able to flash the latest stock rom from letv (which should have updated the bootloader as well). But the older TWRP still remain incompatible.

I guess there is something different in hardware.

And the older TWRP lack some specific drivers.
[Device Reviews and Information] popo72:
Really thank you for the useful feedback!

Actually I had same issue on letv x600 black 32gb equipped with same modded 002S semi multi language rom with play. When I tried to flash TWRP I immediately noticed that fastboot mode didn't show any small white sentence on screen (as it should!) but just black display and that's why I guess it is due to bootloader.

I was able to flash TWRP 2.8.6.0, then BB72 07S and after that when I tried any other TWRP version everything was ok including proper fastboot mode.....so not clear yet the reason but I guess something related to that dirty rom from China
[Device Reviews and Information] turkishboy07:
l m trying to instal twpr BUT after ( adb devices +

adb reboot-bootloader ) codes FASTBOOT not appear on screen then send codes fastboot flash recovery recovery.img + fastboot boot recovery.img that installing but does not enter twpr

Go back a couple of pages to page 77 and follow the tutorial. You need to first flash the SPFT recovery rom, then flash twrp 2.8.7.1, then flash official 7S rom, then flash root and gapps
[Device Reviews and Information] dihanchy:
You dont need to install flash tool for install gapps..Install google installer apk and there it will install google famework and apps automatically like the xiaomi phones.
[Device Reviews and Information] dihanchy:
It is lot easier than that..you dont need to root or install twrp..just install google installer .. a simple apk that will install google apps itself.
[Device Reviews and Information] andrew.warneke:
Yes, but then you're stuck with no root and no custom recovery. I did it your way first, then redid the whole process the more complicated way because it's pretty important to have root (to me at least)

Plus the person I'm trying to help asked for root specifically. Will the Google installer do that? No.
[Device Reviews and Information] dihanchy:
Oh it depends on person..someone just wanted to install gapps without custom recovery or rooting thats why i suggested the easy one. :)

Ultimately phone worked perfectly all day yesterday while at work. Last night phone rebooted and is now in a constant loop of the first letv logo, vibrates, and reboot.

Cant get to recovery mode or anything. Tried the steps in post 735, can get everything installed/downloaded but never boots past letv logo. Tried installing brick image and twrp with spf tool. Everything is installed okay but phone still cant access any recovery.

Any tips. Been reading through the post and ive tried everything.

Cant get recovery back up
[Device Reviews and Information] andrew.warneke:
See post #805. That might help... Solved my similar problem
[Device Reviews and Information] hugoprh:
I had the same problem and fixed by doing the following:

- If you look closely the screen is not black, there is just no back light, so if you look closely at a certain angle, you will see the LeTV logo, once it disappears, press Volume Up + Power button (be quick), if you do this correctly the phone will boot into recovery.

- From recovery connect the phone to the pc and type "adb reboot bootloader"

- Do "fastboot devices" to see if the device is in fastboot

- Flash "recovery.img" (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img) from the 02s unbrick ROM

- Then flashed logo.bin (fastboot flash logo logo.bin) and boot.img (fastboot flash boot boot.img) from 07s version

Now I'm able to boot into the OS, but stuck on 02s version now, it does not see any updates available =( I did a lot of things to get to this stage, one of them was format all through SP Flash Tool, which I think made everything worst, so DON'T do that.

See if this helps =)
