[GUIDE] Video Tutorial - Flashing your Milestone XT720 back to stock ROM

Here you go!
The much requested and highly anticipated video tutorial on how to flash your Milestone XT720 back to a stock 2.1 ROM.
This is a two part tutorial. The first part is explaining how to download & install the necessary three items: The Motorola USB drivers, RSD Lite v4.6, and downloading the stock SBF file. There are links in the video description to obtain these files.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-My3iODE208
The second part is the actual flashing process. During this video, I have flashed my phone back to it's original Cincinnati Bell 2.1 Stock ROM.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KA67WaBfGWQ
Note: I used the Cincinnati Bell 2.1 US Stock ROM sbf file. There are other sbf files available, but I do not have links to them. If someone else has links to these, please share them in this thread for the everyone else to benefit from them.
Happy Flashing!

I don't see any links or announcements about the Milestone XT720. I see things for the original Milestone (which is a different phone) and the Motoroi XT720 (which is also a different phone). Just delete the http:// part and post what you found. The third link for me is about the original Milestone.

Found it....
It's for milestone....
There is no software update currently available for your mobile device. Please check back for new releases.

[Recovery] Micxon SX5 (MT6575) - CWM 5.0.2.6 mod recovery - 100% fully working

Hi all,
A friend of mine sent me his 'Made in China' phone branded as Micxon SX5 (I believe it is a brand name sold in Indonesia). It has 512mb RAM/512mb ROM with GB 2.3.6. I managed to pull the boot.img including other parts of the rom. With it, I managed to rebuild its scatter file, root and mod a CWM 5.2.0.6 tested 100% fully working (able to backup/restore/write new zip/factory reset)
Since there's nothing about this model here yet, I decided to share my work so that others with same model can continue to work on modding/remove bloatware/etc. Do take note that this model only has 512mb NAND and no EMMC (normally 4GB) versus other mt6575 models so, upgrading will be limited (unless someone can come out with slim rom) but you can always come out with custom rom
Please find below files useful for your flashing/rooting/mod purposes:
1) SX5 Micxon scatter
2) CWM 5.2.0.6 for SX5 only (credit to CWM team for the source)
3) Root - use the official Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed-bin from here : http://androidsu.com/superuser/ - flash via CWM recovery
4) Original boot.img
5) Original recovery.img
To flash the recovery.img or boot.img, use SP Flash v 3.1206.01 minimum. Refer to Bruno's blog : http://bm-smartphone-reviews.blogspot.co.uk/2012/05/mt6575-flashing-tutorial.html (credit to Bruno) for the guide.
To make a full rom backup (need root), please refer to this post (credit to rua1 for the guide) - it's in Russian - need to use translator.
above files are based on rom :
Model number - SX5
Android version - 2.3.6
Baseband version - MAUI.11AMD.W11.50.SP.V13,2012/04/10 18:13
Kernel versioin - 2.6.35.7 [email protected] #1
Build number - G502H_TYIN_A_MICXON_ALPSGB2MPV2_V6S20120724
Custom build version - 1343125947
bug : auto-start not working. Any program with auto-start feature will need to be manually run after reboot. Still find a way to fix it (the reason why I root this phone)
Disclaimer : While these have been fully tested to work on my friend's devices (2 units), I do not guarantee it will work on yours. I do not take any responsibilities if your bricked your device/void your warranty by using any of these files. Rooting a device normally will void the warranty. Please check with your seller/shop regarding warranty.

How did you pull the boot and recovery img from the phone?

there are 2 methods :
1) read back via SP flash or;
2) use custom recovery with adb root
If using SP flash read back method, get a compatible scatter with same cpu/spec and readback from 0 - 1FFFFFFF (512mb) - this will give a full copy of rom, need to use hex editor to grab specific area eg preloader, dsp_bl, uboot, boot, recovery, etc. OR read only particular area for specific image. Some device may have to testpoint to get it loaded.
If using adb root method:
nand device image can be pull from /dev/block/mtdblockX
emmc device image can be pull from /dev/block/mmcblk0pX
this will give specific image for particular area.

it works with any 6575 ?

I'm afraid no.. It will not work on other model ... GB 2.3.6 uses yaffs2 format while ICS uses ext4 format so it will brick the phone if you try.
Please do not try to use on other model. Thanks.

Great...I am downloading the files now...will report later

Need to port or compile slim version. Due to the limitation of system partition size on Micxon SX5 (256mb), ICS/JB is nearly impossible.

micxon sx5
thanks to person who initiated this thread on micxon sx5
i have an issue...hope someone has solution...i ve bought this handset sx5 in bali...

Looks the same .. rom version the same .. processor the same .. but IT IS NOT! Therefore sorry for unable to help you because Cross A20 is not SX5. Ask your seller if it's still under warranty.

Sorry but if you *really* read and *understand* what I've posted in the 1st post, I used the official superuser zip with custom recovery to root. Custom recovery is a powerful tool if you know how to use it.
The attached CWM was specifically built with SX5 kernel extracted from the original rom itself. It WILL not be compatible to other 5" whatever brand/model. Please stop asking question here if your device is not SX5. Flashing the attached CWM into other model may result blank/corrupted screen in recovery.

Sorry as I understand SX5 units are all unlocked. Maybe you didn't activate international roaming? (assuming you're still using the same sim card?)

Huawei Y7 how to root or extract stock rom?

Hi,
Anyone could guide me further on this one?
Huawei Y7 does not have a custom recovery yet and I'm trying to root this device.
Have tried all the one click root methods but no success.
I'm already unlocked and trying to extract the stock rom.
Has anyone have a working method to extract a stock rom for a Qualcomm MSM8940 Snapdragon 435 device?
Already tried HDD raw copy tool but I'm unable to get the Qualcomm drivers installed so I can see my device in com ports. No luck so far.
So basically 2 questions :
# how to root this device or
# how to extract stock rom without root
Any thoughts or help is much appreciated!

it may not be much help to you but this tool: https://forum.xda-developers.com/tools/general/huawei-firmware-finder-team-mt-t3469146
should find the official stock rom for any huawei device on huaweis official download/ update servers. you just need your exact firmware number from your phones settings.
note: i have not used a rom from here yet, but it seems promising. to find my rom, i had to manually look for it after the search in the base versions section, i found it, but it wasnt appearing in the found firmwares section after the search which i found odd, clearly i didnt use the tool right.. but i found my stock rom of 1.8gb and downloaded it so im happy.
