Hello guys,

Have you ever felt like "I want a newer Rom, but all the new and best roms are for NewBL :(" ?

Then here is the solution for your problem. (If you don't want to use the converter ;))

STEP ONE

Download the AIO Toolkit for the p990: http://www.playallatonce.com/toolkit/

STEP TWO

Open it, and press number 4

STEP THREE

When it asks you to select BL and partition layout, press 1 (Be sure to have a Rom zip on your sdcard already)

and when it asks to select a partition table, press 1 again

STEP FOUR

Select a preferred custom recovery (CWM is the best in my opinion, but you can use TWRP if you want.)

STEP FIVE

Now we are at the "Point of NO RETURN"

Now you just have to follow the on-screen instructions. It's not that hard :)

That's it. If you followed the instructions, you have installed the NewBL on your phone. Congratulations!

Please hit that Thanks! button if i helped you. :)

there were 2 files. hope won't affect anything if install in any order. otherwise: "WAS IT SO HARD TO TELL WHICH FILE TO INSTALL FIRST?"

to install, just open in any file explorer or use APK installer from play store. make sure you allow install from any source in setting, developer. to get developer .... bla bla bla.... no wonder you don't want to explain how to install.

~~~~~~~~SOLVED~~~~~~~~~

Hello guyz. I upgraded to android 6.0 yesterday and then flashed the TWRP recovery. Made the backup of stock 6.0 from it and then flashed RR ROM. During setup I formatted my ext SD as internal and whole of my data including the nandroid backup of stock got deleted...

So, if I want to roll back to stock, what should I do?

I tried formatting entire system, data, cache from twrp and then flashing stock recovery and boot img by sziraqui and then flashing update.zip (MM) on stock recovery but it got stuck on verifying update zip.

It would be great if someone could help me out in flashing stock 6.0.

I have following zip files-

http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/Ze...user.zip?_ga=1.71171472.1292989533.1461267912

And

[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sziraqui:
Flash 1.17.1531 first. Let it boot to system at least once. Then flash MM ota
[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kunalchitara:
Thanks for your constant help mate.

But won't it be downgrade since I already upgraded my bootloader to MM leading to chances of brick?

Thanks
[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sziraqui:
No, it won't brick. Stock recovery will take care of the bootloader

Also, would you please share the direct (or uploaded) link to KingSense with us...it would be really appreciable!
[Android General] karth83:
I have seen this in gsm developers forum. There is a custom ROM section for desire 826. Only kingsense ROM is present.
[Android General] MUNISH MONGA:
Yes, but that needs a baidu account...that's why I was asking for a direct link (or some google drive link) with some stable server connection since pan baidu doesn't resume downloads.

If somebody has downloaded the KingSense ROM kindly share it with us using google drive....THANK YOU !

2) I've done htc mode...no issue but htc dialer & smart card service are not recommended

So, I've checked for the WP in KingSense...unfortunately it is there:rolleyes:..It is there on all the KingSense ROMs for D826...I've also tried wp_mod.ko and custom kernels of OneM8... even hex edited the wp_mod.ko...no success...it seems as for now write protection for HTC Desire 826 can be disabled only after having S-OFF:rolleyes:

RUU for desire 826 asia_wwe sense 7

https://youtu.be/hnAMKVppN3M
[Android General] MUNISH MONGA:
Well that's may be due to WP...What I did is this...

1. Using Zipme, create a flashable zip of original build.prop

2. Keep it safe for backup!

3. Now using Root Explorer copy the build.prop to some other location (like internal storage).

4. Edit the build.prop using a decent text editor like NP++ or use Root Explorer itself.

5. Edit ro.build.type=user to ro.build.type=userdebug (change value from user to userdebug)

6. Now create a copy of zip, I mentioned in step 1... extract that zip and replace the old build.prop with the edited one, keeping other structure same.

7. Rezip it nd make sure you zip at no compression (use RAR or WinRAR)...once again check that the folder structure is same...there will be two folders META-INF and system...also make sure build.prop is the edited one in the new zip!

8. Now you hv 2 flashable zips, the one with original build.prop and the other with modified build.prop

9. Boot into TWRP...and flash the zip with modified build.prop...it will automatically set the appropriate permissions... that's why we hv used zip me?

10. If you did everything correct...you will see a Multi Window option in Settings/Developer Options/Advanced/here

11. Change the slider from OFF to ON and enjoy the new Multi-Window Mode

12. If you are stuck in a bootloop or any other problem..

flash the zip with original build.prop ?

PS: There can be many other methods to do this...but the safest I found is this one!

I Somehow managed to brick my device while flashing SuperSu. now all Im left with is a device having TWRP, lollipop RUU for my device (I have updated it to MM), a lollipop TWRP backup. TWRP is not recognizing SD card, cannot start ADB Sideload in TWRP, flashing RUU in Hboot via SD gives me cannot flash error. If I try to relock bootloader, it says Security Warning and doesnot respond unless I remove the battery.

thanks man.. You are a life saver. it worked till restoring TWRP but still not allowing me to flash RUU. I would like to have it on MM. By the way coming to the root cause, i wanted to root it to reduce processing speeds as it is heating up. battery stays at normal temperature but the metal sheet above the battery (what I presume as processor) is heating up.
