All sort of services manuals - General Topics

Hi all: I don't know where to post this link, becuase its refers to all the models (or quite all).
It its a link where you can find the disassembling manual, and use to be official, for your pda, phone...
Because the forum is divided on models, I attach here the website and each one can get its own.

You can edit the Microsoft ROM images they provide for use in their emulators but there is no way to take a device specific file an emulate it unfortunately.

No wiki for Polaris ?

Hi all,
where can find the wiki for Polaris ?
thanks.
Read menu bar: User CP, FAQ, XDA-Portal, XDA-Store, XDA-Wiki,...
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/
Google is your friend: http://www.google.nl/
try searching for: htc polaris wiki
Click the first link and you'll find yourself back at Gnick666's mentioned wiki site, in a subpage about the htc polaris

The question has been answered, and a link has been added to the general XDA-Wiki. I only pointed out that the Wiki link didn't poke only his/her eyes out. So please explain why am I being a twat?

(Info)Everything About firmware's

Are you sick of searching through a 200 page thread over one topic just to find the download link to the newest thread?
Well over at allshadow.com I have compiled all of the information of the Firmwares and update everyone on the newest builds
Sure there's a sticky of a chart but how could a chart help you find the newest updates?
http://allshadow.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=5692
links down man.
That fast? Re updating

You got one too many "http"s in there, turbo.
nice work. I like how everything is there for newbies to go by without posting multiple topics.
This would be a nice sticky or a reference site to point all questions about firmware to.
I fixed, i sorta found that out.
Do you want me to port this thread over? It wont take that long?
You don't mention the holiday firmware for both us and eu

What do you mean? This is the most recent firmware's
I will add those in a sec
I'm currently running the following
signed-dream_gfh_eu-ota-147201.ea8cd686.zip
updated with
signed-gfh_eu-CRB43-from-CRB21.62e94a26.zip
(update is signed-gfh-CRB43-from-CRB21.c88b03d2.zip for us)
I don't know the name of the eu CRB43 file without upgrading though if there is one :-(
Basically this is the nearest I can get to a non t-mobile adp like firmware for europe, unless you know of another ;-)
Please don't let this thread go to waste.
I agree completely. A thread called 'Everything about Firmwares' with incomplete information would be a waste ;-)

Well I was only giving information on the newest builds, sorta waste of your time if you flash RC30, who in the world would do that? I will update to make everyone happier.
Who would want to flash RC30 when a) I'm in europe and b) RCB43 gfh is out?
[None]
This thread has Great Info for new Android Users, let's try to keep it alive don't just trash it with off topic posts. Great Job Matt
I'm not trashing the thread, just trying to make sure the information is complete as it would be great to have it all in one place
Anything else you want me to add> I just added all the older builds and added some new sections on User Created Firmware Changes. Thanks for the Props

[Q] How to verify a third party apk download?

I have an old phone that uses Android 2.x, I think froyo or gingerbread. I want to download AFWall+ which is a firewall application that's the successor to DroidWall. The problem is the most recent version no longer supports the Android version used by my old phone. The app's details are here (I can't make it a hyperlink because I don't have 10 posts):
Code:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dev.ukanth.ufirewall&hl=en
The relevant part says:
- Supports 4.x ,5.x and 6.x (for 2.x support use 1.3.4.1 version)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But the problem is I don't know how to get the 1.3.4.1 version and verify it is the legitimate version. There are a lot of websites that offer downloads for older versions of apks but they could inject anything they want in them couldn't they?
I would ask the developer in his thread what is the proper way to go about this but as I mentioned I don't meet the post requirements at the moment.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

@ukanth Sorry to bother you again but I can't find version 1.3.4.1 in your thread. Did you ever get a chance to post it somewhere? I can get it from a 3rd party website but I just need you to give me the hashes of the packages so I don't install something that's trojaned. I'm a computer programmer but I don't know much about phones, so please keep that in mind if you have special instructions. Thanks

Got a QiKU 360 N4, tutorial to unlock bootloader is in chinese. Halp!

I hope this is the right thread.
Hello bois, I got a QiKU 360 N4 which is a pretty sick phone for the money I paid it.
It came out recently on the chinese market and its bootloader is locked.
I googled a bit and found some tutorials tho unlock the bootloader and install TWRP, because somebody compiled that already! Awesome, right?
Too bad are in chinese, yeah.
Google translate doesn't help that much, it is incomprehensible, and even if it did help: I am required to sign up to the chinese forum to read the whole tutorial (which requires me to understand how to sign up) and from what I understand the procedure makes use of a software running on windows to enter the bootloader and such software is in chinese only!
So I am looking for some kind soul who could translate the procedure and, if possible, reupload the necessary files somewhere so people like me wouldn't have to sign up to the linked chinese forum to get them.
In exchange I can offer some tips on health and fitness for I have a master in sports sciences. Or, I could offer you a beer?
P.S. sadly xda does not allow me to post links, can link in private... I guess.

I've sent you a message however I don't think you'll manage without knowing chinese
The tool they use is to unlock the bootloader and it's a proprietary tool.

I'm sorry but I did not have time yesterday. I don't have access to a proper computer so I am using my raspberry pi to do all this. Since it does not have a photo editor I am working on a google slide document that will be accessible by link. I'll post it here as fast as I am done
---------- Post added at 10:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:20 PM ----------
Here is how far I have come. I assume you have to download a bunch but at least the company gives you information. I've heard numerous people who buy Chinese phones and are stuck with whatever software they offer.
Yeah there is no chance to write a custom rom because the kernel source is never being given by Mediatek.
However having the ability to backup and play around with the stock firmware is great.

True, I like how it has become a meme that "I'll die before mtk releases their sources".
Any more news on this? Loving my N4 so far, but would like to install TWRP and gapps, but not quite sure how. Have read somewhere that Kingroot has worked on other Qiku/360 phones but haven't got that far myself. Any chance you could send me that link to me too, your googling skills are clearly far superior to my own!
Hi.
I wiped my data from the stock recovery and now i am stuck at boot logo.I don't know how that happened.but i think i have to flash stock firmware which i cant find anywhere.
Qiku forum is unresponsive and there is no other place with info of this rare phone.
Help me out here please
help me please! I.want to unlock my QIKU N4S, but i can not download from chinese forum. thank you a lot!
Bootloader unlock - HERE
Found some ROM's also .... Althought, You'll Need TAMPERMONKEY and Baidu Download Script for Tampermoney
ROM'S - HERE and other Tools + rom's HERE
There is a whole Qiku N4 forum but it's in chinese .... didnt have time to bother with it,
since it requires to be registered ...
And, as bonus ...
I found Russian modified ROM's ....
HERE for HW version A01
and
HERE for HW version M02
TWRP Recovery - HERE
Check HW version of your phone, if you want to flash roms and BEFORE screwing it up.
Hope that's enough for now ....
p.s. Be carefull what are you doing and flashing into phone. Links I posted are from third party sources,
people reported they are working, but all you do - you do on your own responsibility.

Hello Alex,
Those links are sadly down.
Do you know any other link to a stock N4 image and scatter file that I could use to factory-reset a pattern-locked N4 ? I got my hands on a discarded one, but the factory reset option in recovery mode requires that cloud account be first deleted, which I can't to because of the pattern lock.
Thanks !
EDIT :
Sorry, I spoke too fast. I gave another try and the links are up, though in chinese. I'll try to get what I can. Thank you !

Is the cell phone on your hand 360n4? This cell phone has two versions of 360n4 and 360n4s
Yes, it a 360N4, not a 360N4S.
What I'm trying to do is follow that howto : http://www.cnroms.com/360-n4-061-unlock-bootloader-install-twrp-recovery.html to downgrade it, then factory reset it and install TWRP.
However, I can't read chinese (can't even tell whether it's cantonese or mandarin). Google Translate helps, but most link seem to be broken, and when they're not, the download speed is abysmally slow (several days…).
Is there any way you could help me ? Maybe get the needed files and reupload them somewhere faster ?
