[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Slatz81:
Hey folks,

first of all i am sorry for my possible bad english.

I have a dead MTK8163 cube iPlay10

and cannot bring it back to life

I already downloaded 2 original stock firmware ROMs

have all the scatter files preloader and all the sh**

The only thing that works is that my pc is recogizing my device, so far so good. But that´s all.

SP flash tool is not working to format or flash it.

Probably you guys can help me out here, i dont want to give up yet!:good:

Here is a video of what i am meaning...

YT-Link

Thx in advance

Some ideas to try to solve it

Hi,

First all, about the drivers, clean all your mediatek stuff drivers, with usbdeview and with DriverStore Explorer [RAPR]. There may be interference with previous versions of mediatek driver packages.

Second, install the mediatek signed drivers by Microsoft, you can get it, for your Windows version searching "Mediatek Preloader" in the "Microsoft Update Catalog".

Third, install at least the following drivers:

MediaTek DA USB VCOM (Android)

MediaTek PreLoader USB VCOM (Android)

MediaTek USB Port

MediaTek USB VCOM (Android)
​

Then try the most recent SP Flash Tool version.

If issues persist, maybe your tablet is bricked. SP Flash Tool is a dangerous tool, it is easy to inadvertently write the preloader, and this is a brick.

So, you have to find a "test point" to put the device in META mode, and if you have a preloader copy, be able to flash it. You have to flash the preloader provided by the manufacturer, no other preloader will work.

"Test Points" are device specific, and usually require phisically open the device, but also, may be a "test point" in the USB connector. So, before opening it, try connecting the device with an OTG cable and a male-male usb cable to the computer and try again. This worked for me, in a similar tablet, also with MTK8163.

I hope this helps.

F.A.Q :-

Vedio recording fix :-

media.stagefright.legacyencoder=true

media.stagefright.less-secure=true

add ?those lines in build.prop. camera section

camera.disablezslmode=1

save, reboot, now check camera.

It will partly fix the cam only 1080p wont work for that to work use third party camera app like footej

And more:

It's stupid, but haven't found any opportunity to turn off vibration in notifications. Is it possible? Cuz it's really pissing me off.
[Galaxy Grand 2 Android Development] acharya21:
Yes backlight is buggy in this rom and check in sound settings for vibration option if its given then possible otherwise not.

Is there any specific baseband to use for this ROM?

I'm using a single SIM but either in slot 1 or 2 there's no data connection, 2G or 3G.

Calls are fine, the baseband now is G7102DDUBNK1.

Yep, I quickly realized the SIM1 fix was about data and not voice...

Seems really a very nice ROM, thank you.

Only I didn't expect the missing buttons backlight to be so annoying.

Real pity, they work fine in the setup menu when you set them to be lit.

Hi, big problem with my note.

Unlocked with custom rom today starts going in bootloop with warning screen about this is not the original rom. So I shut down the phone and after a bit I connect it to the power ac and the phone starts to boot loop with logo honor heavenly background. I cannot enter in bootloader pressing the right buttons.

Is it bricked? There's anything I can do? Please help me and sorry for my english.

[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] pixel81k:
Hi [MENTION=1181556]rolling_bonzy[/MENTION]

you can try to enter erecovery and let it install the latest version of stockrom.

to do this, connect your device to your computer with usb, then hold powerbutton as long as it needs to restart, then keep holding "vol+" until on the screen "your device has been blablabla not trusted" and the message shows up "your device is booting now..." - wait a while and you land in the Huawei eRecovery, where you can "Download latest version and recovery" ... do that

perhaps it is needed a second time after that for doing a factory reset in the same menu

let us know if it worked, cheers =)
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] rolling_bonzy:
Many thanks for your reply. Unfortunately no succes. But I notice that if I press "vol -" it stops to boot loop and the screen is black. If I release the button restart flashing.
[Huawei Honor Note 8 Questions & Answers] pixel81k:
and does it flash or only wants to?

perhaps you have a chance if you create a 'dload'-folder on your sdcard and therein copy this file (for example): http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G3130/g1699/v168765/f1/full/update.zip (i have it from the topmost entry from http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-database/?firmware_model=EDI-AL10&firmware_page=0 -> click on 'filelist')

After that, connect your device with usb on the computer, restart and keep holding vol+ and vol-

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

How to flash treble roms having /factory instead of /vendor?

* First time custom rom flasher/ coming from ZUI / Never flashed treble rom / Never flashed factory2vendor patch

1. Flash Treble TWRP ( which supports /factory )

( https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=11410963190603913223 )

2. Flash ROM + GApps etc

* Coming from roms for which you had done factory2vendor conversion

1. Flash Vendor2factory zip

( https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=962187416754475514 )

2. Flash new TWRP with /factory support

It will work for both non treble like zui , and treble roms having /factory instead of vendor support

( https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=11410963190603913223 )

3. IMPORTANT STEP : Reboot to new TWRP

4 Flash rom

5. No need to wipe if coming from same rom

Or

1. Flash ZUI via QFIL

2. Flash TWRP ( which supports /factory )

3. Flash rom

updated information on 03/02/2019

* factory2Vendor if you have not: https://xdaforums.com/lenovo-zuk-z2/how-to/z2plus-treble-roms-flashing-reverting-t3778287

* Treble TWRP 3.2.3 (by me :p): https://github.com/TwrpBuilder/andr....2.3-TwrpBuilder-z2_plus-2018-10-24_17-55.img

There are were 2 build lines for ArrowOS 9.x :- One with Kernel 3.18 ( not anymore supported after 25th December update) and other with Kernel 4.4

ArrowOS with kernel 3.18 is now deprecated from 25th December build ( For easy identification, i have renamed all the 3.18 kernel builds and added "3.18" after ArrowOS-9.0 tag, and now all the new builds will come with Kernel 4.4.

Starting from, January 2019, all the builds will come with Kernel 4.4

Faced a green screen/blue screen when flashing ArrowOS 4.4 kernel build first time?

Remember, that Kernel 4.4 require a newer bootloader, so you will have to QFIL ZUI 3.5 or above.
