[Lenovo P780] gitbroda:
I flashed 136 rom (4.2.1)

I tried to restore everything (four in one)

result:

"OK: Connect to target successfully.

>>Step: Start to write Wifi MAC.

Error: Write Wifi MAC fail. Meta Result = META_INVALID_ARGUMENTS"

I don't know correct serial (I bought only mainboard and I forgot to write it down)

Maybe this is a reason?
[Lenovo P780] stympy:
must be... it is possible!

did you tried one by one ?
[Lenovo P780] gitbroda:
maybe I wrote something wrong in MAC addr...?

>>Step: Scan Smart Phone Wifi MAC.

Tell me what is going on !
[Lenovo P780] gitbroda:
Thank You for Your help!

Anyway... it doesn't work

In Sn_station is possible only to write 12 digits, no one more

I tried to do this Youtube way, precisely copied files, changed permissions, doesn't work too

I lost both Mac addresses after rooting phone vroot aplication

Now system shows them just: "unavaible"

What is interesting, bluetooth addres passed sn_station, but bluetooth doesn't work anyway

I restored my imei using sn write tool but i wrote imei 1 and 2 manually, automatically it didnt detect .

Anyway it fixed my imei problem .

I skipped BT address how to get BT address ??
[Lenovo P780] stympy:

This tool do not detect your IMEI!

You must write your IMEI in that boxes! Manualy!

When the green sesor appear it is done !

I have uploaded a document tutorial! Look on that maybe will help!

Thanks for you replay :)

Now I had written myself IMEI , BT MAC and WIFI MAC . But I spent whole day :crying:

I guess you must come from China . Because you files contain Chinese :D

[Lenovo P780] stympy:
Hi. I come from Romania. :D

The document is attached at the end of the first post, not in Google Drive.

It is an russian translated document, adapted to our phone.

Glad that this tutorial helped you.

Thank you for your post here. Took me a while to adapt and write correctly this tutorial.

Hope will help alot of people.
[Lenovo P780] stympy:
Seccond post. Is tested by me. First one i have to adapt...

And yes. You have to download all those files!

Try the tutorial i have uploaded in zip file.
[Lenovo P780] bauuuuu:
stympy

update- first method- i got error execution failure while opening the database changed maui tool to 1244 now i can load modem database but then problem is this https://i.imgur.com/xe7iTS9.png

second method-It does not write after connecting the phone simply no progress.

Another question is will it hold the nvram when i change markup ? from ROW to CN ?

All the drivers are installed properly.

appreciate your comments
[Lenovo P780] stympy:
Hi. Yes at the first metod i have to adapt to our phone. Not yet, because not a single friend of mine broke NVRAM.. yet. :D :D :D

Seccond method works for sure. Tested on 2 phones.

The trick i discovered was: before start to flash NVRAM the phone will be shot down for at least one minute to clear any information from RAM and Flash Memory.

After this minute have passed, remember at least one minute, the phone is started in META MODE and the flash has start.

Tell me if this dont work.

OHH. and yes. The NVRAM is permanently writed. IMEI will last for layout change.
[Lenovo P780] bauuuuu:
Hi stympy, For some reason i could not use second method but i managed to use the first method and it works very well. I found this method is used for all MTK phones http://xdaforums.com/unite-2/general/guide-repair-imei-invalid-micromax-t3048984

I did checked the IMEI and if one formats the phone it will be lost., quite expected. But anyway that is good to know. In the link above there is youtube video it is good for dummies :p
[Lenovo P780] stympy:
Glad you repaired your phone! Now you should test if by any chance, in layout change IMEI will desapear. :good:
[Lenovo P780] bauuuuu:
To change the layout sometimes it might be required to format all+download option in SP flash tools. IN that case it is does not keep the IMEI .
[Lenovo P780] stympy:
I have full formated some Lenovo P780, and no one of this phones lost IMEI. I use only 2 tools to do that, and those tools are posted in my post Rooting Tutorial for KitKat.

No one of those tools have failed me.

In change some tools that people downloaded from net have serious problems.
[Lenovo P780] bauuuuu:
Somhow i was not able to restore IMEI when i flash the stock version. It shows error bootrom communication error. If i install custom rom then it works.
[Lenovo P780] stympy:
Good. Did you tested by flashing another firmware with SP Flash Tool ?
[Lenovo P780] bauuuuu:
Ok after lot of testing i have more insights about the IMEI restore, i think it will be helpful.

It does not keep the IMEI if one is switching from ROW+ markup to CN+ markup or vice versa with complete format.
[Lenovo P780] stympy:
Thanks. This is good to know. You have tested on "+" layout.
[Lenovo P780] bauuuuu:
stympy you can update the post for wifi fix as well.

For some reason i was not able to write WIFI address. It was giving me error "wifi write failed" then i checked "enable macheader" option and it worked out.

It should look like this.

https://i.imgur.com/VQwIX9g.png

And here is the updated SN_Station tool version. If you want you can download here https://yadi.sk/d/DpXrvKB1ovef8

The things are much much easier with the new tool.
[Lenovo P780] stympy:

how can I "disconnect the phone again" if it's already disconnected ? :confused:
[Lenovo P780] stympy:
Sometimes people forget to disconect the phone and i write that to remeber the user to do that.

No error there! :good:
[Lenovo P780] RandomAsianGuy:
for some reason I always get this:

"COM port searching and preloader handshake fail

Error: Connect failed, Exit Meta Mode and turn to next phone."

can you help me ? :(
[Lenovo P780] stympy:
This is going on because ths program cannot comunicate with the phone.

Reason: CDC driver, bad USB port, bad cable,bad Windows. Windows 7 is reccommended.

You must check all of them first.
[Lenovo P780] RandomAsianGuy:
Maybe it's the driver or windows because I can flash with this cable and USB Port :confused:

I'm using windows 10 64bit btw

I installed the CDC driver but not sure if I did something wrong :confused:
[Lenovo P780] stympy:
Did you read the doc file that is attached on tutorials ?

Did you desabled the windows driver signature ?
[Lenovo P780] RandomAsianGuy:
didn't notice that file was there :silly:

also it is necessary to boot once after flashing stock firmware ? :rolleyes:

my phone's power button is broken so I think it's impossible for me :(
[Lenovo P780] ch3mn3y:
1. Perform clearing the NVRAM or Formatting telephone (recommended)

Doesn't reflashing soft format it? I've had one MTK based phone and after reflashing it was clean as new (at least it's software part :P).

I see there is in the end of OP guide how to format, but should I do it before everything else or use the order You wrote that post?

Additionaly, as You wrote in my thread, I have CN version of the phone, but on Your GDrive there is only CALIBRATION_FILE_RF_INI_P780__ROW_124.7z? Is it safe to use on CN device? Coz I think inside is file needed for 16 step?
[Lenovo P780] stympy:
When you reflash with SP Flash Tool it erase everything. You are right.

That i cannot answer to you because i did not flash any IMEI with that tutorial. First tutorial i mean.

I have used with success only the seccond.

But what do you have to lose... NVRAM is corrupted anyway! :D
[Lenovo P780] ch3mn3y:
Ok. SO I have stock, but now I need CDC drivers. Anyone has working ones? I found Drivers 1.6 on Baidu and there is cdc-acm.inf, but still Win (8.1) "cannot install device CDC Serial" "Windows cannot find driver software for this device..." blablabla

Used Yours and they worked

---------- Post added at 11:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:49 PM ----------

It seems that I have problems with both methods:

First One:

Action->Open NVRAM database. When I open BPLGUInfoCustomAppSrcP_MT6589_S00_P780_V23 from Your MAUI META folder I got Execution Failuer: Initialize NVRAM database file...

Second Method:

Im getting Fail when search new COM port in SN Write. How to connect device? It's in Meta Mode and still fail...

1. As modem I put BPLGUInfoCustomAppSrcP_MT6589_S00_P780_V23, as AP APDB_MT6589_S01_MAIN2.1_W10.24.

2. Drivers are installed, options set as on ScreenShot.

3. There is Lenovo USB VCOM (Android) (COM6) device....

4. And what are 0123456789abcdef mean? what Should I write than? This (Your) words/numbers are OK?

5. I don't have Have been in meta mode, long press the power button and the normal boot, but There is Booting into META mode..., which disappear after moment. It's OK?

Is it set right? Coz now Im not sure abut anything....

Hi.

Answer me this:

1. did you powered down the phone at least 1 minute before you enetered meta mode?

2. advice: before you plug the phone in meta mode it must be powered down for 1 minute at least and very fast plugged in after you entered meta mode, the flashing tool must be started before phone must be plugged.

hope this help
[Lenovo P780] ch3mn3y:
1. Even more than 1 minute.

2. Maybe I was to slow. Will check later again.

Will check on stock Row to be sure that everything is stock like. Even if + has nothing to do with it.

Tool was started before phone.

Tell me one more thing:

Before I run the SN Write Tool, do I need to connect phone? Than start app, disconnect the phone, set all options like on screen, press start, put IMEIs and MACs, and then connect the device again?

I checked both - with device connected when starting program and without and there is some error/info window showing at the beginning (just after boot).

When trying to use SN phone need to be always connected when booted to Meta Mode, right?

[Lenovo P780] stympy:
No you dont need to connect the phone.
[Lenovo P780] ch3mn3y:
Stil doesn't work. Doesn't matter when, how, why, I connect the device, always:

>>Step: Start to Connect with target.

COM port searching and preloader handshake

COM port searching and preloader handshake fail

Error: Connect failed, Exit Meta Mode and turn to next phone.

Reinstalled the drivers hundreds times and it doesn't help.

The drivers are in android_drv_all_in_one1.7z and android_drv_all_in_one2.7z?

SO there is difference between what I have and Your doc file - META is seen as Lenovo USB VCOM (the same name after installation) and Bootloader is Lenovo one not Google (no way to choose it, as there is only one to choose).

Is it normal than when app is starting I get error - FAIL, Total Com Port Count Fail?

the idea in : how to convert original PN , SN , IMEI , WIFI and BT to hex numbers

Enter ASCII text or hex/binary/decimal numbers:

in this site http://www.rapidtables.com/convert/number/ascii-hex-bin-dec-converter.htm

it will be like this from 000046663001 result is 30 30 30 30 34 36 36 36 33 30 30 31

do it for all u need to convert and take it to SP_META program

Try this:

1. Prepare all the tools.

2. Power off the phone.

3. After you started the tool enter fast the meta mode and plug the phone.

4. Tell me if that works.
[Lenovo P780] Slavazander:
I will try it in a moment. But let me ask. Before i want to put my phone in meta mode and install drivers like on step 2, is there any drivers that i have to install first?

I mean after i flash my phone to stockrom s124, do i have to install or add hardware manually via device managers or i can just jam it in while in meta mode and update the cdc serials and lenovo p780 with the yellow triangle on it?

Well I'm here to ask something related to the problems issued in this thread.

I got a XT1032 with IMEI fully written but, for some reasons I still don't know, the damn phone does not "read" the signal. The bars just stay empty and nothing, not even a full original firmware restore, seems to help.

Now I wonder if the problem is in a non-working modem partition, but I'd see that problem solved when I fully flashed the stock FW.

Is there any solution? I also tried to flash all the european (I'm italian) basebands known to mankind and nothing happens.
