hello , your best bet is to use the .exe file found on this post to factory reset . download the file plug phone in while its off and run the program. ive boot-looped this phone many times and this method always works for me if you cant find the stock .exe msg me and ill send u the link
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yourmom6996:
I have a couple more questions. 1:Can you overclock this phone? If you can what should i use. 2:im looking to mess with the boot animations, what should I know before I do this? 3: what root program is most stable? Last time i used Kingoroot.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clark71822:
1. I believe you need a custom kernel for that, and right now we have one due to the bootloader problem, so overclocking is pretty much a no-go.

2. First and foremost, have a backup. If you don't have TWRP installed, there's a post here at XDA and AF where you can get it. Use it to backup your system partition before messing with boot anis. The screen resolution on our phone is 720x1280 so make sure whatever boot ani you use is that size.

3. The only root method I'm aware of is KingRoot, but there is a guide to replace KR with SuperSU here at XDA as well.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yourmom6996:
Is Kingoroot and KingRoot the same thing? Because I used Kingoroot and it worked fine before, but then after a while when messing with lucky patcher, Google play stopped working then the home screen wasn't responding so I factory reset it then that's how I got into this big problem. But I got some help from androidpimpz (thank you bro).

Until the bootloader gets to an unlockable state there won't be any custom ROMs or kernels available. At this point I'm seriously doubting it'll ever happen
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidpimpz:
hi everyone i have a question.

i really would like to make a rom for this phone.

ive been trying to use various programs

like "ASSAYYED"

which i found on this site. ive built a stock.zip and it installs with twrp. with no errors but then it will give me the system.ui

quit error.

so my question is

1. if this phone is bootloader locked would i not be able to install a update.zip in the first place? ive seen bootloader locked phones before and when u try to install update.zip normaly it will display a screen after and say unoffical firmware or something right?. So seeing as you can install a .zip doesnt that mean that you can run a custom rom on this phone?

2. if a developer can look at my zip and see maybe if update script is wrong. i would appreciate it.

with the stock .exe file this phone is perrty much unbrickable.

like to thanks to everyone that has helped with this phone. with the custom recovery and the stock images i found on this site. all of you are awesome!

and ASSAYYED developer. really detailed program.

I have been reading this thread and have taken a keen interest in it. I have been modding android devices for 3 years now and doing the impossible on some of them, it's only a matter of time. Now I don't have this device nor do I have any experience working with Qualcomm chipsets but this may be a good place for me to learn and help out a bit.

I noticed one user said he was able to flash system.img via fastboot. I know fastboot mode can do many things such as unlocking bootloader (on some devices), flashing an update, system.img,recovery.img and boot.img so that's good work. I took it upon myself to download the stock recovery for this device and decompress(extract) it so you can see inside the recovery. I was also able to get the kernel file from the stock recovery.img.

If anyone would like to give it a look I suggest downloading notepad++ from here and then you can edit files in the ramdisk folder to see more into your device.

You can also try comparing the stock firmware for similar Qualcomm devices and see what is needed to use with the flash tool. :)

Omg ☺

That's amazing ☺

How kind of you...

I know you're quite busy over in the Alcatel mtk forum, so I'm very grateful thank you!

If I'm not wrong, I believe that what he meant with "unlocking" the bootloader was that there's an option to enable unlocking of the bootloader in developers settings, that's all :(

I have 2 Alcatel 5054n...

One can only reach the recovery (messed up layers) and the other have problems with home button and notification/qs... Might be water damaged?

Could that one be of use for you?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kirito9:
Well it would up to you eventually really, because I'm not sure if these "Qualcomm flashtools" will work. So all depends on which device you would like to get back :). I think you should go with the one that's softbricked (the one that can only reach recovery).

I am going to download a Xolo Q1000 Opus stock firmware that's Qualcomm based. I will compare that firmware with the ROM backup uploaded and see what I can do. :good:

And since that is the case. I guess the bootloader wasn't unlocked so I'm assuming unlocking the bootloader isn't necessary to for rooting and flashing system.img
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyttliv7:
Well I'm prepared to ship a phone if it will help you to dig in to this project ☺

So did you have a look at that while upload? Just wondering why the app catalogue is empty? And is it possible to make a flashable zip from it?

The built in recovery is very limited, and only helpful for wiping data and install a valid stock update.

And a custom rom will only be possible after we've unlocked the bootloader...

Feeling lucky to have some experienced guys here, thank God ☺
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kirito9:
There is a way to check if it works. Unlocking bootloader would be the first step to installing a custom recovery.

If you have a PC, I would recommend installing these drivers(fastboot and adb) from here. Install fastboot and adb system wide and install the device drivers.

After installing those drivers, enable USB debugging, connect your phone to your PC and allow USB debugging on this PC (if it's the first time using adb with the PC, that should pop up on the phone). Open the command (cmd.exe) window and type

adb devices

, wait a while for the daemon server to start and you should see your device. Next type

adb reboot bootloader

When the phone reboots you should see a screen, it may ask you if you want to continue as it does on some devices, or you may not see that screen.

Connect the phone back to the PC and enter this in the command prompt.

fastboot devices

Your device should show up. Next type

fastboot oem get-bootinfo

. If it says bootloader is unlocked then that option in developer options works. :laugh:

If you do not see bootloader unlocked, then you may have to unlock it via the command (this may wipe device, so backup contacts and messages with root apps)

fastboot oem unlock
