I tried with apanda 1.6 and 2.1 on my router today and in both cases didn't detect n standard. also my laptop with windows 7 doesn't detect n draft. so i let my router on mixed. Rooted means have superuser permission like administrator.... for every phone there is a different way to root it.

what does the program RUT on your computer say? there should be a red error message. which operating system do you have? did your computer ask at some point for qcusb.inf? anyway the problem must be on your computer. can you try on another computer?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Harrp:
tnx for quick reply

Pc never asked for qcusb.inf .

so the recovery menu on ORANGE BOSTON was the correct one? because it has rwo option which u can see in picture !!

I use xp sp3

win is Fresh install (3day old)! & up datet.

is the Net frame work the right one ??!!

Can't undo to 1.6 version

Hello everybody.

I just did all steps described in my Optimus Boston PT and when i restarted i just had no IMEI (when did *#06# it shows me blank).

Then i tried to restore 1.6 version but it simple doesnt flash.

How can é undo all the steps till the first one?

Best Regards.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] suriya83:
I'm pretty sure your phone is ok. but something on the computers fails to start the flashing. download the 1_6_2 nb0 file again and rename it in something shorter. then try this: download

apanda 2.1.4

connect your phone to the computer in recovery mode, extract the zip file and execute setup at the end a program that looks like RUT will open.

You let that window open and start again with PART 1 using the real RUT. If that still doesn't work, please try on another computer (windows 32bit). i'm pretty confident it will work
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] suriya83:
If you look at settings-->about phone--> status... there should be IMEI. whats written there?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] RiCK_19:
I has got the same problem, 32bit. XP with SP3. All drivers correctly installed. I try to flash the 1.6.2, error, than the other ROMs 2.1.4 and 2.1.9, again error. Than you cant boot to the original (Orange 1.6) ROM, so go to recovery mode and Reboot system now ;)

Now i"m waiting for the official Orange 2.1 ROM, which Orange may introduces in September.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jonburton:
Suriya, i changed IMEI once! I followed all steps in tutorial i changed it. The problem is that, after change IMEI looks like :2503343..... (including the ":"). It says in tutorial to change the duets order (ex: A3 25 01 to 3A 52 10). I did that and my IMEI is now with numbers order changed.

If i send you my original IMEI could you send me a valid nvr file?

Best regards!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] suriya83:
the PC needs 2 sets of drivers for flashing the phone. first set for taks 1 and second set for task 2 and 3. i think there is some problem with drivers for task 2 sometimes. Please try on another Computer cause it is easyer than find a solution.

yes. send me a pm with your IMEI and i will send you a valid nrv. cheers

Okay, my wi-fi not working at all now after I revert back to original 2.1.9 rom. The phone will freeze when I trying to turn on the wi-fi and then restart, mac address is blank/unavailable. Installing CMLMod again does not fix the problem.

Any idea how to fix this?

Edit:

I found the culprit. It is superboot.img I use to root my phone. Any idea other method of rooting 2.1.9 rom or link to correct version of superboot for our phone?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] suriya83:
try with cml 1.5:

Thanks, but I found pretty good solution both rooting and apps2sd, by installing k0ng's recovery image from:

Right now I'm looking to set the processor back to 600mhz.

so cml 1.5 is out? any link about the features?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] suriya83:
There is a tutorial to set the processor back to 600mhz. but i didn't translate it yet since i didn't try yet. but should be really easy:

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] suriya83:
not yet. but i think soon. maybe with the official orange update that is coming this month. anyway if you can live with an english settings menu, all the other things you can have in italian. with cml 1.5 is it such a big problem to have settings in english?

intendo: lo so che noi italiani per le lingue non siamo portati per niente, ma le quattro H in inglese, non saranno mica un problema spero... :D. poi per il resto c'e' tutto in italiano.... notifiche ecc..

6.Press on your keyboard Windows+R in the pop up window type "cmd" and press Enter

7.In the dos window type "cd.." (off course without ") and press Enter, until you are in C:\

8.Now type "cd A688" Enter, then "fastboot getvar version" Enter. If the answer is "0:5" procede, otherwise control if your drivers are correctly installed

9.Type "fasboot -w" Enter

10.Type "fastboot flash system system.img" Enter (wait 2-3 min. until it finishes)

CML mod 1.5 is part 2 not part 3! you use cml 1.5 instead of apanda 2.1.9!

Hi suriya83,

ich hab ein eher peinliches Problem. Ich komm nicht in den recovery Modus. Halte ich Volume Up und den Kameraknopf (an der rechten Seite unten) gedrückt startet mein Boston Orange einfach durch. Halte ich Volume UP und DOWN komme ich in ein Foxconn Menü. Versuche ich aber dann die Treiber zu installieren und suche das richtige Verzeichnis aus, meint der Hardware Manager, dass keine Software für die hardware vorhandem sei.

Danke für Hilfe.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] KokyOK:
I got a new PC at work with freshly installed XPSP3 and I was able to flasch my phone.

I only had a problem changing my IMEI. After STEP 1 I checked my IMEI and it was something completely different than my real IMEI.

So I followed the instructions but I didn't swap the last 2 numbers (I know, my fault). This change procedure worked without any problems but since then I can't change the IMEI anymore.

My real IMEI is:

3521020403275 69

But my actually set IMEI is:

3521020403275 96

I already tried to repeat flashing apanda 1.6.2 and repeating the IMEI procedure.

I also tried to flash apanda 1.6.1 and change IMEI.

Nothing worked.

So I flashed CMLMOD 1.5 and I'm still waiting for any errors because of bad IMEI.

What are the known problems while having a bad IMEI?

Can anyone give me a clue how to change IMEI in my case?

Android Debug Bridge

Hello,

I've been using CMLMod 1.5 for some time now, but recently I tried to connect for the first time to my device (Orange Boston) through ADB and the device isn't listed. The problem is the USB driver. I reinstalled the driver several times and from different sources (Android SDK and those that came with RUT - the one that worked for flashing CML rom), restarted computer and phone also, but to no avail. I'm using Windows XP SP 3.

Also tried the USBDeview utility to uninstall all devices related to Android, but adb still doesn't work.

USBDeview lists 4 drivers installed and related to android:

1. Qualcomm HSUSB Device - GOOGLE Mass storage USB Device (usbccgp.sys)

2. Qualcomm HSUSB Device - GOOGLE Mass storage USB Device (USBSTOR.SYS)

3. Modem Foxconn - Smartphone 2009 Wireless USB Modem

4. USB Device - ADB Interface (fxxandroidusb.sys)

5. USB Device - Modem over Android C001 (also listed with Qualcomm as vendor)

Obviously, these aren't normally visible in Device Manager. They are shown only when the phone is plugged in and depending on the phone's state.

In my case:

#1 and #2 show up when plugging the USB cable and activating sd card transfer (unmounting from phone). (ok)

#3 shows up in Device Manager if I boot the phone into recovery mode and is says it is working properly. Haven't tested it if it's really working though (the only way I would know it's working would be to flash the rom again I guess and don't want to do that). I don't think this driver is related to adb anyway. (ok)

Now, the only time that "ADB Interface" (#4) shows up in Device Manager is if I reboot the phone normally, and for a moment (while in the booting stage) it shows up in Device Manager with a question mark, then disappears as soon as the PIN input screen is displayed. From then on, checking/unchecking the "USB Debug mode" in phone's Settings doesn't seem to have any effect: the phone notification with "debugging enabled" pops up, but Windows doesn't react in any way. (here's my problem)

Any ideas ? Has anyone used ADB with CMLMod ?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Hellek:
Well I bricked my new Orange Boston. How it happened:

I followed the instructions step by step. At the step of installing apanda 1.6.2 it already got bricked. RUT flashed and got to the point where it said that it will reboot the phone, which never happened. RUT finally showed that en error occured.

It gave me this logfile: http://pastebin.com/XPsnFaUr

And this NV-Backup: http://pastebin.com/MxXgzMzc

I don't think that I can do anything more right now since my phone does not even respond to the power button.

I sacked the battery and put it in again and tried to power it up but nothing happens. No matter whether I just press the power button or whether I keep volume-up + camera pressed at the sime time as well. Sucks pretty much. Any help is appreciated eventhough, as said, I have little hope.
