Ah, no worries. I'll be able to test it tomorrow after work. It'd be great if it worked out that way. The removal of Band 12 really screwed over a lot of people. I think I'm going to jump on the ZTE Axon 7 train once released.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] famewolf:
I think I'd have to wait a few months after release for some sales as that looks to be out of my price range. ;)
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] brian117:
Yeah it's twice as much as the Idol 3, but with the specs and design, it'll be worth it most definitely. Seems like a phone that's at least 2 year worthy if the updates are promised.

Also, decided to quickly test the modems since I'm an impatient SOB. Turns out your 5.0.2 modem does in fact bring back Band 12! First attached image is the 6.0.1 Modem, and the 2nd is the 5.0.2 Modem. The 5.0.2 Modem was flashed over Alek's MM build with no problems.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] famewolf:
Well that will make some 6045i users happy. ;) How do I find where they have band 12 coverage?
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] brian117:
I've always relied on this map here:

http://maps.spectrumgateway.com/t-mobile-700-mhz-spectrum.html

Crazy seeing how many areas were added since the first rollout of the 700 spectrum in only a few select areas.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] famewolf:
well crap I may have to see how hard getting lte is with 5.0.2 cause it says band 12 is literally all around me.

*update* I downgraded it and got lte on band 2 no prob right now (weather dependent since I'm on a fringe area) so will try tomorrow when I'm in town. I literally couldn't find my area for all the 12's around it so should be useful. ;)

I only recently was moved to an account that had access to LTE...I was on an old grandfathered plan they forcibly converted. Their terms were favorable in several ways and it was worth getting a new sim so lte was available (that's how old my sim was).
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] brian117:
Yeah post back with your results too so we can compare. :good: I'm curious if it'll work for everybody.

And holy crap :p. That is an old SIM card for sure. Could probably get away with donating it to a history museum.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] famewolf:
Well I passed on the info to bassbrick15 (I think that was the nickname) who was upset about losing band 12 in the general forum mm thread. In zooming into that map my town and the nearest towns don't use 12 but if I travel anywhere outside of about 30 miles I have this big red circle around the whole area. ;)

Looks like band 4 is the main one local....my old nexus 4's would like that...they were never officially lte devices but would work on that one band...and they kept trying to release radio's that shut that coverage down too...eventually some gifted fellows made hybrid radio's that had the benefits of the new while holding onto the coverage of the old.

Don't be expecting ME to do that anytime soon. ;)

im unable to install the zip from the recovery. I have stock recovery and never rooted or installed any custom rom. The zip file has been placed on the root of internal storage but still the recovery is not able to detect that file. Please help.

You can't use stock recovery. You need TWRP 3.0

I tried to modify the updater-script to don't install some or all partitions i tried 7 times and everytime with removing some partition will cause to system not boot....im trying 5 days to solve the problem with wifi and bt but same wifi and bt not works ON MM(triied wiith restoring with Mobile upgrade q and Panasonic) same to my friends with same phone bought from same carrier Wifi and Bt not works ....So i'm going back to 5.0 :( :confused::crying::crying:
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] Jeik:
I bet this is why Alcatel took its time to update the Idol 3,other variants have issues. But I am sure your variant will get MM in the following months.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] jerpd3rp:
So the real question is whether or not this can be used to aid the development of custom marshmallow Roms
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] Jeik:
Trust me,I am more tryharding than all of you when it comes to getting CM13 up and running(except Unjustified Dev). :P

We need Alcatel to release the new source because using old CM13 source(built upon 5.0 source) and relinking the missing parts with new raw libraries from MM isn't going to work(or won't work as good as it would with official MM source). I always could be wrong,and Unjustified Dev knows best in the end.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] jerpd3rp:
Good to know man! Really appreciate the work y'all do, especially for a non flagship device!
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] Jeik:
Sadly,this is still,theoretically, a flagship from Alcatel. There should be waaaay more development here. Yu Yureka and Moto X Play aren't flagships of their respectable companies,yet their development is grand.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] jerpd3rp:
It's all a specs race haha
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] famewolf:
I still say someone should be able to take a twrp backup of system and boot...share it....if the other person can get it to boot then a rom can be made (for the other variants)...then again Alcatel would have released it for all variants. *shrug*

It is nice for once to be on the variant that lucks out (6045i).

system image and boot
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] famewolf:
Well the test, which someone may already have tried but I'm unaware of would be for a non 6045i user to take marionette's twrp backup and install it making sure to only do system and boot....and see if they can boot their phone...they should have a backup so they can revert after the test.

This needs to be someone who has NOT flashed the MM rom that overwrites partitions for the best test.

[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] frankee207:
Hum, I guess flashing the backup won't cause the LTE not to work, cause the partition modem won't be erased.

Can someone confirm ?

[MENTION=320962]famewolf[/MENTION] A question:confused:

This is the content of the total backub including EMF weighing about 8 gb.

It used to restore my terminal when I tried to install the construction of Alek Dev and I had lost the use of wifi.

My question is this: instead to upload all of the boot folder and image upload system only the other (not the ones in red) within a folder, and then each one gets a total backup and replaces my files with his can act?

Because the weight would be much lower.

I apologize if I said a dik ..... :cool::cool:but seeing how the proceeds of mega upload it takes a good 4 hours.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] famewolf:
I'm not sure why you included all these other partitions...all that was requested was system and boot...we don't want data or efs as those are specific to your phone and no idea why you'd backup cache. I thought [MENTION=4150512]The Marionette[/MENTION] had provided a twrp backup as well..although I didn't look in it to see if it was 5.02 or 6.0.1.

It's not complicated.

The first person needs to be someone on marshmallow (whether they are having issues with it or not) that can backup system and boot...just those then upload them somewhere the 2nd person can get to the file.

The second person needs to be someone that has NOT tried to install marshmallow on a version other than 6045i. They need to first make sure they have a good twrp backup of their own to go back to then try restoring the marshmallow backup of system and boot and see if it boots up or has an error. This is exactly what the 6039 users are doing right now to get marshmallow on all their variants. Depending on how it works the user either stays on marshmallow or restores to the previous backup they made.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] :
Only Upload System image and Boot not System!
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] Nikola Jovanovic:
Me too, just stating.. I completely agree, it's somehow muffled and grainy .. not so crystal as on cm..

I had some permission problems with irs folder but for the most it works..
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] :
The backup from Marionette it's 6.0.1 ....
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] Langsuir:
Just making sure, you did disable the JBL setting under "Sound and Notifications" right? With it enabled, the sound is terrible. Without it it's just meh (compared to CM).

Enviado desde mi 6045I mediante Tapatalk
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] famewolf:
Thank you. Then all we need is the second person on a version other than 6045i that has NOT already tried to install marshmallow willing to test it that has made a good RECENT backup of their system.

If the person has already tried the install then their other partitions have already been overwritten...we want someone that still has all factory partitions.

Hi I have the 6045Y and I haven't installed mm yet and I'm running DallasCZ 1.4rom is they anything I can do to help
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] famewolf:
If you are willing to be our guinea pig then download marionette's twrp a few posts above and after taking a current backup drop the extracted twrp folder into your group of backups and restore it then see if you can boot into marshmallow. If you cannot then just restore your backup and report back either way.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] :
i think if we backup only system and boot will not work...we need to flash system img and boot :):) (Marionette backup has boot img and system img + Data-(we don't need it...)..currently i'm on 5.0 i will try to restore the mm backup from marionette only system img and boot :):)
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] famewolf:
You can try but your partitions have already been overwritten...none of this is going to change that. Again, system image isn't needed...you are just increasing the size of the download significantly by taking all the empty space. System image is primarily used when the manufacturer is checking to see if a system has ever BEEN MODIFIED because it maintains the file table...you don't need the file table.

[MENTION=2296018]brockyneo[/MENTION] You do NOT need the data portion of Marionette's twrp...only system and boot.

[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] famewolf:
For the TWRP restore you just need to have a current backup...you do NOT need to restore to factory or anything like that.

---------- Post added at 03:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:52 PM ----------

I thought you said you had the only variant that did not work with mobile q when we repeatedly suggested it to fix your connection problem?

He does not need to go to factory to restore a twrp backup. twrp is not the same as flashing a full rom zip.

I'm not so sure ours are actually locked even when they say they are...on my other devices when you unlock the bootloader you lose all data on the phone and it's reset to factory...on the idol it shrugs and goes "ok, it's unlocked"....not quite the same reaction.

Great Job of once again, stealing the work of others. As least your consistent. Consistent at that and consistently wrong at most everything else. We have the rant including ALL UPPER CASE earlier in the thread where you stated that marshmallow "will not boots!" without flashing the additional partitions. Your comments stating your phone absolutely would not work in mobile q...and just so much more it defy's listing.

Thanks for taking the idea I came up with, posted, asked for help on, repeatedly explained and jumping in at the very end to take over while I was asleep then produce some huge banner of a post that doesn't mention one thing about where the idea came from or that I was working on it till you decided to jump in at the very end.

I lost root but it is no problem to flash supersu again.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] famewolf:
Who came up with the idea. Who originally asked masterdex to upload a backup? Who requested someone to upload a twrp backup of mm and another tester to restore it that had not tried marshmallow yet? Who posted in YOUR rom thread days ago stating a rom was needed that only did system and boot rather than all the other partitions? You are very quick to claim credit from others while very poor at showing credit.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Android Development] :
You come the idea? to make flashable zip for partitions?...Masterdex send me Pm with backup .... and i made zip for partitions what i said again without new partitions system will not boot...if my friend would't made backup of MM What the Users can backup it?
