edit-

[Android General] kirito9:
Can any of you guys with the 4034N try this method of rooting? Without unlocking the bootloader?

Masgisk Rooting
[Android General] jh3141:
For reference: I tried this on a stock 4034X and it failed (couldn't persuade it to boot the custom recovery without going through the full unlock process). Fortunately, there are now copies of the stock ROM available for download (e.g. https://androidfrog.com/a3nr9) so with any luck I won't need to go back to the dodgy CM13 port that constantly runs out of memory and soft-reboots...

Update: I've installed the stock ROM I linked to above, and it seems to be working pretty well. Only issue was that the scatter file that came with it was apparently broken. Fortunately, one that I had hanging around from attempts to fix this problem last time seemed to work with it. I've attached that to this message in case anyone else needs it.
[Android General] kirito9:
Thanks, I'll be sure to add a notice for 4034X users in the Magisk guide. I have yet to see a stable CM13 ROM for MT6580 with 3.18.19 kernel. There seems to be an issue with this device chip and ROMs.

i bricked my alcatel

i have an alcatel pixi 4 (4) 4034x and when i unlocked the bootloader it softbricked my alcatel, the only solution i did was relflash it using spflashtools
[Android General] h1792:
same problem

I have exactly the same problem. But I haven't been able to find this Mobile_Upgrade_S_4.5.9. Any help will be greatly appreciated,

thnx,

Herman

update: i found the mobile upgrade tool. But it says the latest firmware is already installed. Earlier i tried spft, flashing seemed to go well but the phone stays in animation/bootloop.

Can anybody help?
[Android General] jenkinson6a:
Tried this method on a 4034X but after flashing the firmware the phone doesn't display anything at all, without the battery in the computer doesn't even detect the phone anymore. With the battery in it sometimes connects but is unable to flash anything, I just get "s_ft_enable_dram_fail (4032)"
[Android General] villapark75:
Exactly the same outcome with my 4034X

I took it back and got new 1.

If you need me to help in any way just ask. I have just created a new scatter file and pulled everything off phone with magicbox. I can upload recovery.bin for you which should help I think. As in this thread

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=71790893&postcount=1483

I've also found a stock 4034X ROM online if you need link.
[Android General] RunCraze:
Hi there, Thanks so much for all your help and everyone else who has commented, unfortunately i still have a bootlooping phone.

when I go to step "2. REFLASHING THE PHONE" I get an error (Obtain DRAM Failed!)... could anyone be aby to help me? Thanks!
[Android General] asad78611:
I've got the same problem with 4034X bought from tesco, was hoping to give it to my little brother as I got my new phone and when I did an factory reset or oem unlock it boot looped. I then flashed it and after that it no longer comes on or charges.

The Phone comes up as MTK USB PORT instead of preloader which I think means I've flashed the wrong preloader?

When Flashing it does Downloading DA 100% in red and then doesnt start the flash just says DRAM Failed 4032

I've tried everything and have no idea how to fix this.
[Android General] asad78611:
So I managed to get it working!!!

After reading through the logs I noticed that the Flash tool actually reads the preloader to figure out how to boot the device into DA mode. I have two firmwares labeled 4034X but neither of them boot. I had created a backup of my phone before all this and tried that. It didn't like the format of the preloader. But I managed to get it to work.

YAY!

DRAM ERROR 4032 means that the flash tool is sending the wrong settings for the RAM which means the preloader your about to flash is incompatible.
[Android General] JennyM:
Thanks I got my phone back but still no luck on rooting it.
[Android General] ZZZzJ:
I feel I'm in the same boat right now where my phone isn't responding at all after flashing all .bin files from the Stock ROM via SPFT, including the preloader file. Unfortunately, I don't have any backup files. Could you please help me through how you got your phone to work again?
[Android General] francewcoboc:
Hello everybody, I am a new proud owner of a Pixi 4 4034D. I love it so far! But it has very little internal storage so I would like to delete some of the preinstalled apps. What [MENTION=8469115]acartix[/MENTION] wrote looks very promising (thank you very much for sharing!), but still there a couple of things that I am worried about before I am comfortable in trying the root...

First is the loss of the dual-sim support. I actually bought this phone mainly because of the possibility of using 2 sim cards. Second is the big amount of posts around XDA and other forums of people saying that they bricked the device ore are stuck in a bootloop. I am not completely completely novice in rooting/flashing a phone (I did it already on an old Samsung Galaxy S Advance and gave new life to it), but I am not an expert, either. So I am a bit afraid to do mistakes and to f**k up this wonderful tiny phone that I just bought.

So I would like to ask to you people if anyone actualy managed to root a 4034D without losing the dual-sim support and if you could provide some simple instructions on how to do it for coward people like me that are afraid to mess up :).

Thank you very much to everyone! :cowboy:
[Android General] muellerlukas:
I finally did it. 2 days with a small amount of sleep. Use the things mentioned in https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=66792560&postcount=2

1) Unlock bootloader (now bootloop)

2) Install TWRP

3) Click "Wipe", "Data" and then choose "Change file system"

4) Change to ext2

5) Go to 3 and do the same with ext4

6) /data should now be readable (sure, data is lost)

7) Flash CM13 and Gpass Pico (nano ended in a CM-bootloop, dont know why)

8) You now have a working* 4034D with 2 Sim-Cards

* Only bug I noticed: You cannot disable the second Sim-Card. Use none, both or just take one out of the slot.
[Android General] superLambdaMan:
Thanks man!

really big thanks man!

I was stuck with my pixi 4 4034D, stuck with the PIXI4 screen after trying to root,

I tried so many solution out there, no one worked, after 3 days, I found your solution and it worked!!!

thanks again!!!

:o

Just in case: this solution is to come back to a stock rom after softbrick ( in my case the pixi 4 4 4034D)

This solution will not give you root, but it will give you a working phone again after softbrick

I downloaded this: https://androidfrog.com/a3nr9 (stock rom for the 4034x)

I downloaded this File Type: txt	mtk6580 scatter.txt : https://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4175417&d=1496948299

I downloaded this : https://spflashtools.com/windows/sp-flash-tool-v5-1816 (this is the tool to flash your phone)

when running the sp flash tool, load the scatter file mtk6580 scatter.txt and fill the missing files with the content of the stock rom (https://androidfrog.com/a3nr9) (easy, each missing file is the same filename in the archive)

Then, in the SP flash tool, click download, then plug your phone without battery, it will start downloading the files to your phone

When done, unplug usb, plug the battery and swich on your phone, it works!!!

:D
[Android General] ryan001:
recovery.bin file

Please can you email me the recovery.bin file. I tried flashing the device but now there is only a blank screen. I can hear the startup sound, but thats it.

If you could upload the files and recovery.bin I can maybe restore the device.

Thanks villapark75

Hi

I want to buy this phone online, please give links where to buy. I need shipping to US or UK.
[General Mobile GM 5 Plus Questions & Answers] berkantkz:
Maybe you know it's only sold in Turkey. (I don't know if it's sold in EU or somewhere else than Turkey.) And I guess you live in Armenia. You can simply travel to Kars, Iğdır or Ardahan, even maybe Trabzon to buy. :D

I'm not sure will it be sold international.

Yeah, it is. We might be enemy but if you are scaring of your health, you won't die ofc. It's not war.

No dear )) I know its not a war. I just won't put a brick (a liiiitle brick of course) to improvement of turkish economics. Be happy ! :)
[General Mobile GM 5 Plus Questions & Answers] berkantkz:
Your choice. I don't have any problem with Armenians. They betrayed Ottoman Empire though, but it goes well by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk right now.

We are Turk. You can be with us everytime if you don't betray us.
[General Mobile GM 5 Plus Questions & Answers] zbashunc:
That's the falsification your government is trying to share to you and trying to share to the world, the truth is that they couldn't create their dream - Turan because of Armenians and other Christian people, so they decided to make the easiest choice (no people, no problems).
[General Mobile GM 5 Plus Questions & Answers] berkantkz:

[ONE Android Development] mustang_ssc:
Yeah, downloading. Android 2.3 GingerBread, i was waiting so many time for this, thanks!

UPDATE:

Installed and booted. First impression: this is not 2.3 GingerBread, i've been tricked by daniel.

Alright, in case some people want to know some first impressions:

Everything is working fine, even the backlight hardkeys.

It has some features like CM13: livedisplay, privacy guard, in-root working, custom action buttons and some other stuffs.

You can directly flash the rom with the gapps and it will not show any error (tested with opengapps nano 09/17/2016). Also flashed viper4andoid with no problem.

Adaway working with no need to install busybox.

A bug i found is that i cannot change the custom battery icon from the CM options.

To be the first build it's really great. The only things i miss are CM Theme manager and KCAL control but i'll be patient to see them in futures updates.

Thanks for the work daniel.

UPDATE 2:

With the purpose to clarify some possbile doubts i'm going to say what you need to do to get KCAL color control, Multirom support and themes. This might be useless in future updates.

Although it's not recommended so it can affect the stability and perfomance of the rom, if you are desesperate (like me) to get this features you can follow this steps. Do not report bugs to daniel related to kernel, storage, interface or FCs that could be related to the following steps if you follow them, you're using mods unrelated to the rom.

-For KCAL color control you need to flash a custom kernel compatible. I've tested Radioactive kernel and works with no problem. I repeat: This is not recommended because might cause incompatibilities, but just in case you want to get KCAL and other features related to kernel you can do it at your own risk to bugs.

-For flash it as secondary rom with multirom follow the steps from [MENTION=4252252]venky716[/MENTION] and give him thanks: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=68727289&postcount=37

Edit: KCAL control and MultiROM support already implemented.

-For themes i installed substratum. What you can do and what you can't do: You can use the theme manager with user apps like whatsapp, kernel adiutor, twitter, etc but if any change is implemented in system components you could get a boot-loop. I didn't tested system apps but i would not recommend it.

Flashed it right now and currently using the system.

Great work so far. Got system as ext4 and data and cache as f2fs formatted and it works.

However, "Anomalies" i have witnessed so far:

1. Settings -> Status Bar -> Hitting "Status Bar Icons" crashes and opens Settings again.

2. Changing the Battery status style does not change the icon

3. Camera crashing instantly after u open it.

Thats all for now since i did not use the system long but will report further bugs if any occur.

and then you run away from what should I get?

I had charged this rom 4 times in 2 days. What should be the cycle period to know better battery life of the ROM?. i had never faced this before. After single full drain use every rom is giving me better battery life. I know that this rom is early stage of development. But its fact i have to show that battery is issue still there. I don't want to blame any one ( some people's are so rude they makes no sense comments like' bye' see you, wow) i think they are not using there phone or want to show off there fake love to nogut.....
[ONE Android Development] bnwgraaf:
It is a very early rom and actually, I am positiv surprised how well it works! I use it already, because all major things work great!

Only (for me) smaller things like led color- and other settings (like battery symbol) are not workong at the moment.

Battery usage I am not sure at the moment. I find charging very quick, but feel battery drain might be worse than marshmallow, but I can not say this for sure, because I did not use this rom already long enough!

I like it though and am hoping for updates!
[ONE Android Development] goast:
Awe put down your purse... First off my battery life is on par with every other ROM I use... The fact you couldn't get it with yours is a you issue secondly nobody cares what ROM you're going back to... The fact you feel need to tell us all is insulting to the person who spent their free time making this is what's rude... Now go have a coke and a smile...
