First of all,
Sometimes we facing BOOTLOOP, but we rarely make a backup so DATA in that backup already out to date.
And i found a method which can FIX BOOTLOOP WITHOUT RESTORING OLD BACKUP !
CAUTION !
THIS METHOD ONLY FOR ANYONE WHO FACING BOOTLOOP AFTER INSTALLING APPS, MODS, ETC
AND THAT APP IS NOT IMPORTANT FOR YOUR ROM
Things you will need
PC or Laptop
USB Cable (For connecting SD-CARD)
SD-CARD Reader (If your CWM Recovery can't mount SD-CARD)
WinRAR or WinZip
Notepad++
Patience!

Thanks, its is a lot easier to do with adb file manager thingy software I found online, connecting to pc via usb gives full access to phone file system partitions with root access, just deleting the files with it also works. :thumbup:
Why are SMARTphones soo... Freaking Dumb?
Or via adb
Connect phone/tablet to pc
In adb type:
adb delete("/system/app/Whatever.apk")
Done...
Disadv: USB Debugging must be enabled...
You sir are awesome, I flashed a zip that caused my Xperia U to bootloop and I couldn't delete the file I flahed via ADB! This is a simple yet amazing script, thanks for avoiding me to wipe data

You know what happened. when just stopped in my logo I does not do anything just to wait so that I fell asleep and when I woke up I realized this a bootloop Or what ? I do not know his name.
At that time I was just doing the usual way way., list.
(Wipe data / Factory reset)
(Wipe cache partition)
(reboot system now)
but no change
(Restore user data)
(backup user data)
(Reboot again)
Still same
(Apply update from ADB - I do not have a pc)
(Apply update from sdcard - No have ORIGINAL ROM, BACKUP ROM, CUSTOM ROM Etc.)
(Apply update from cache - I do not understand what this)

Hallo,
I was trying to find custom ROMS for the Canvas 4 -A210 Micromax mobile in this forum and my search yielded one custom Rom which I experimented and met with the difficulties.
I thought I can try some other custom ROM of the same type or equivalent type mobiles. Luckily I came across the "Thread By: bgcngm" which normally read regularly.
I picked up the V3.0MOD Rom and edited and and experimented with the A210 canvas4. Luckily it gave me a good performance except that of the "Video call" facility did not show up. My IMEI was also vanished. This happended to me on previous experiments also.
Hence who ever is going to use this Custom Rom has to back up there IMEI and restore it using Mobileuncle Tool or what ever they feel easier.
I submit and reiterate here all the credit for this ROM to "bgcngm" and also request him further help us to some more modification to ease the application. I am only a learner and new entrant. Based on my use below I provided the details: You should have a Rooted Phone..
1. Find here the CWM recovery that was obtained using the MTKDroid Tool 2.4.8.
2. Use SPFT above 119. I have used 139.
3. Download the stock ROM and click on the Scatter file. This will load up all the files required for the stock rom. Un-**** all the items. Now click preloader and take your curser to the recovery. Click it and point it to the extracted CWM recovery you have downloaded from this.
4. This will install the CWM recovery 5.5.0.4 to your mobile. Also you can try with Mobileuncle tool to install the cwm recovery.
5.Download and copy the Custom Rom to your external or internal sdcard. The url is here:
MMX-XXX-JB_210_ROM => https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B6mi3aQy8tz9TVlJWWJ5SnJMRDA/edit?usp=sharing
6. Before installing please back up every thing using the CWM recovery.
7. Using CWM recovery you select the custom ROM form the location you have copied and install from the AROMA installer.
8. Please back up your IMEI, some time it may be required if you loose yours, this can be restored using Mobileuncle Tool.
9. It is advisable to use custom installation and select what ever application you like.
10. Install and enjoy.
If you like my efforts, please hit thanks.

Many time i used the the recovery obtained through Mtk Droid tool and it is working fine. I used the patched recovery provided by MTK Droid Tool.
This worked fine. But the recovery saved inside the mobile in the clockworkbackup created some problem.
Patched recovery provided in the recovery file in the MTK DROID Tool is functioning good and I am using that currently. Whether it is perfect or not I do not know. In what contact you are asking i could not guess.
It suffice the need and operation is normal and good like many other which I have used in the past.
If you meet with any difficulties. You write in this forum. I or any one
will reply.

Gentle man,
Please find the screen shots for installing the CWM recovery on Canvas 4
1. Download keep ready the SP_Flash_Tool_exe_v3.1312.0.139.zip extract it to a separate folder on your desk top.
2. Double click the blue coloured .exe file as shown below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2201502&stc=1&d=1376999658
3.Immediately the Smart Phone Flash Tool will pop up. You click on the scatter loading row by taking the courser there, AS SHOWN IN THE SCREEN SHOT BELOW.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2201517&stc=1&d=1377000012
4. Once you clkick the scatter file your window will ask for the location of the scatter file from the ROM. Hence you should have the SPFT flashable rom file reaqdy in hand. Hope you will be having one or you google it in this from search and down load and keep ready.
5. Take your curser to the MT6589-Android_scatter_emmc.txt file as shown in the picture below and click it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2201539&stc=1&d=1377000609
6. Immediately after clicking, the tool will download all the required files from the folder and a tick mark will be seen against the files name as seen here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2201546&stc=1&d=1377000844
7. Now un-tick all the boxes except the preloader file. Then go to Recovery file and tick it. Now do a sigle click of the recovery file. A window eill pop up and ask for the location of the file in your stock Rom folder. Now take your courser to the location where you have saved your CWM recovery file and click/ open or do a double click. The stock recvery file will be replaced by the CWM Recovery file as seen in the shot below.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2201559&stc=1&d=1377001277
8. Similarly if you want you can upload the patched Boot.img file also. It has been recommended by the senior developer of the MTK Tools to flash the patched boot.img also for a better shell performance of the phone. It can be done on a trial and error basis. I have upload this .img also into my phone during the flash. You can do a separate flash or single flash of both the files together. No other files are required.
9. After ticking stay awake and usb debugging in your phone your put off your phone. Remove the batter. Connect the phone to your PC/ Lap top using the USB cable provided along with the phone. After connecting your phone now put your batter into the phone again. For some PC or Lap top you may have to put after clicking the download button. It depends on how you have installed the drivers or framwork of driver loading. Normally I connect the batter before clicking download section.
9.After downloading the required file, just look above the 5 white rows of the SPFT tool you can notice, four different components, vice ----Format----, firmware upgrade-----, download------- and DA DL all with check sum. Just click on the Download section there as shown in the pictures below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2201573&stc=1&d=1377001862
a window will pop up asking you yes or now withe warning as seen in the above shot. Ignore the warning and click yes.
10. Depending up on the RAM and other features of your PC/Laptop first yellow flash across the bottom most row will glowing through as shown in the shot below and followed by a Purple/indigo micture glowing flash and finally a yellow beam that ends with a green circle as you seen in the shots below.
Though the CWM and Boot.img file file has already been uploaded by me in this portal for making it holistic I am up loading the files here.
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B6mi3aQy8tz9XzhyZmFmQUtqWVk/edit?usp=sharing .... Patched boot.img file.

The is 547 MB and why nothing inside.
AROMA installer problems is also felt by me. But using volume up and down key and power on switch we have to install the Rom Colour scheme in the touch is not working for volume up and down buttons.
Since I was busy with local works I could not improve it. Developers who are free can attempt it.. For another one week I have busy schedule and afterwards I will try to improve it.
Thanks for your attempts

Rooting
Download the utoo-root-signed.zip from here and copy it to a microSD card (do NOT extract it)
Charge up the battery in your Karbonn ST-8_version2, Power Off and remove the charger cable.
Insert the microSD card into your tablet
Get into Recovery mode( Power+volume down ) .
In the recovery you can move with the Volume down button, you can select with Power or Volume up
Select the apply update from EXT option
Select the utoo-root-signed.zip, this will install the package
Wait for the update to finish
Select reboot system now
This is a tried and tested method and has worked for everyone till now.
Attached zip credit goes to xda user @Lannig
Lag-free Tweak
Install SetCPU app
Download the file Setcpu.txt from here
Paste it into the root of your SD Card
Open SetCPU, first change the governor from "conservative" to "performance2"(This is the most important thing)
Click on options button(three dots) and then click Device Selection
Select Custom Frequencies
Now Set Min frequency to 48 MHz and Max frequency to anything according to your preference(Now you'll have the choice of setting the frequency upto 1.5 GHz)
Note:
When you wan't to conserve more battery lower the Max Frequency(while browsing or listening to music maybe) and when playing HD games up the Max Frequency(Most games will run perfectly with even 1200 MHz)
48MHz of Min frequency will give more battery in in standby mode.
Try not to Clock the CPU above 1.2 GHz for a long time as it could cause heat issues. The governor itself should speedup everything for you.
Low Internal Memory
The fact that our devices have only 1.51 GB of Internal Storage limits the capabilities of our devices. Especially with HD Games.
I recommend using GL2SD for games at the moment.
Get used to using the app, its pretty easy..

Ok guys,This the first and last time I am posting this....
To unbrick ur tab......
1. Post what u did
2. What is wrong with the tablet according to your understanding
If you want to be helped the above two points really matter........
3. See this link
4. All info about unbricking various types of bricks can be found on the thread....
5. Also i would suggest you go through the thread fully and understand every detail
6. Another alternative for you guys would be Karbonn service center, But I feel it is useless as they take minimum 30-45 days to repair things
7. The method i mentioned is the first one,sdcard one
At this moment we have an experimental unbrick package with us thanks to developer @fuser-invent
This package is to be used in the STEP 3 of SOFT BRICK UNBRICK SDCARD method
Step 3
This only works if the first method completed far enough to allow you into the Stock Recovery or if the Alternative Methods worked and you now need to install the correct firmware.
0. Restore your SD card back to normal capacity with the SD Formatter software. This can take a long time, be patient. Choose the following options:
- FORMAT TYPE -> FULL (Overwrite)
- FORMAT SIZE ADJUSTMENT -> ON
1. Get THIS firmware package
2. Download the above zip extract the above zip to the root of an empty sdcard( less than 2gb ). It should look like this all four files should be in the root of the sdcard.
3. Just FYI, the zip folder among those four files is the stock rom ( it has boot.img,bootloder.img,system,recovery.img,aml_logo.img,logo.img )
Also this package is a recovery package for soft bricks....
4. Put the sdcard in your tablet
5. Hold down the Power and Vol - buttons to enter the Stock Recovery
6. Flash your firmware package and reboot the tablet.
7. If it worked, either plug your tablet into the computer and use USB mode or shut down your tablet and remove the SD card, then remove the "u-boot.bin" and "uImage_recovery" files from your SD card.
8. Boot back into recovery and make sure that the firmware package correctly installed the Stock Recovery on your device.
Your tablet is now back to it's original Factory Settings.
6. For furthur assistance see this link
7. If you are successful plz report back...........it will help others

As 2012katas said, it's very important to go to the thread he links in #6. Yes, it is a HUGE thread, but it is detailed for a reason. 99% of your questions will be answered in that thread.
For example, the thread clearly says to use the ELF2 rescue image and the USB image tool to prepare your card first, then delete the ELF2 files from it and replace them with the files for your tablet. It also says that if that doesn't work you can try the SD Formatter software with my suggested settings to try and prep your card. I have no idea if the package will work until someone tries it the correct way and reports back.
On another note. If it doesn't work the first time, try to delete the u-boot.bin file only and then try again. Also mentioned in the thread, some people need to press and hold the power and vol- buttons and then when the tablet starts lighting up, start pressing the power button repeatedly, but that is rare.
As for the people with deep bricked tablets (showing the M3/M6 chip), you don't have anything to loose at this point so you best bet is to download the ST10_20121129.zip package, remove the patch.zip and update.zip, put the ST8 v2 firmware package zip I made in that folder, edit the config_progress.xml so the firmware package name is correct and no longer called update.zip, delete the part for the patch.zip, renumber the remaining steps, zip the whole thing back up and load it into the AML USB Burning software.
That might work or it might not work. You have to intelligently experiment because there is no official release for the tablet. Also you will notice that in the unbricking thread I say that if you can get the tablet showing some signs of life after the M3/M6 chip deep brick, you can then move to the SD card method. So if the usb_spl.bin and u-boot-orig.bin for the ST10 work with the ST8 to at least get the tablet out of M3/M6 mode then you could use the SD card method.
Lastly, to 2012katas, I'm rarely on XDA so if you have more questions, I see them more often on DragonDevs. You seem into this Dev stuff and smart, so feel free to get in touch to troubleshoot more.

Hi,
there are some different MTK Chipsets in the Tronsmart TS7.
If your device is a MTK6589 take a look at here
For the newer device based on MTK6582 i want to share my experience, mine is a 4GB version:
Root
- Activate USB debugging
- Download the Root Genius from here to your PC
- Start the 'root genius' and root the phone ...
- Install SuperSU
- Install a Filemanager with root permissions
- Move the KingUser.apk at /system/app/ to everywhere for backup or delete it
but don't deinstall the King User App
- Reboot phone
- Start SuperSU -> the SU Binary will get to update (method -> normal)
CWM Recovery
- Download the TS7_4G_CMW.rar from here
- Download the MTK Droid Tool 2.51 (or higher) & start it
- Click the root button -> permit the ADB Shell root access at SuperSU
- Go to 'root, Backup & recovery' -> activate 'To Use boot from phone'
- Click Button 'Recovery & Boot'
- Question "to make CWM recovery automatically ?" -> No
- Select the downloaded Gacier-TS7_130805__recovery_130815-142418.img
- Flash it & reboot to recovery
Remove the Google-Search-Bar from Homescreen
- Rename/Move/Delete these files, which are located in /system/app
QuickSearchBox.apk
QuickSearchBox.odex
Run Navigon Select (German D1 only)

Regarding the new update, what are the changes? Also, I have installed CWM. Is that file compatible with CWM?
update in 1st Posting
Thanks for the guide
However looking at the contents there appears to be a recovery folder. Would it be correct to say that if I were to flash this zip as it is, it will replace my current CWM recovery?
Also, has anyone actually installed the update? Any changes noticed so far?

i have a question regarding the 3g frequencies of the phone:
it says that it supports the 850 wcdma frequency, however someone i spoke to told me that he checked and the phone doesn't support 850, but 900 wcdma instead. can anybody here check it and see if they get the same result?
thanks.
So I managed to put together a update.zip somehow and managed to update the phone. Disappointing thing is I don't see much changes, the phone is still as sluggish as ever. Also, I lost root, and Root Genius can't get back root, so I have restored my CWM backup.
This phone really needs 4.4 Kitkat stat!

The Rom has no upgrade ... because our Tronsmart TS7 this date with the latest version [G820_C1_F1_Tronsmart_V0.2_20131127]
The flash ROM is only necessary to leave the phone to factory settings and remove the ROOT
you should try the VROOT, with this method you do not have to delete the system APK's
Only download and ready SuperSU the application of the Play Store
the procedure in the Post in Spanish of [HTCMania]
The administrator of this post should update the 1st post and add a second method ROOT
EDIT:
In the post HTCMania, is the link of the Rom already signed!
Ready to flash with CWM
I can not post links because I'm new to XDA

Hello guys!
Today i am going to show you how to root samsung galaxy A8(mentioned above) install twrp and then lastly install playstore on it without any troubles!
The problems i faced was so much critical and step by step i faced bugs and fixed them accordingly.
so we come to main topic now.
first of all reset your phone. thats because a frash phone is always perfect. btw non resetted phone also works here.
1) Now download the app in the link below called CROM_Service. open it and just wait it will unlock your bootloader.
2) Now u need drivers. download them also in the link and install on your windows 10 pc. Boot your phone in download mode by pressing home+volume down+power button. in chinese font screen press volume up and then connect you phone with pc using a fairly working usb 2.0 cable.
3) Now download CF_ROOT in the link below and and put in your worling folder better name that folder your phone name cause we always work in this folder. extract files in there. Now open Odin in that foler as admin and click AP and load the md5 file in same folder. and click start. this will flash root and restart device with a modified kernal.

Hello, I'm not sure whether this is the right place for my problem but I will give it a try. I have a problem with TWRP recovery on sm-a8000 Chinese version.
Every time I try to flash any zips it fails.
Error 70 failed to mount preload (invalid argument ) I can't do factory reset either in . I'm able to root the phone and the phone works normally except for the custom recovery.
I tried to do factory reset in original recovery and it worked.
My aim is to install Google play apps.
Here are some pictures of the recovery result. My internal memory is only 3Mb in the recovery but if I connect the phone to my computer it shows 10Gb free.
Any idea what's going on?
hey,did you hv any rom of that model (sm-A8000)?
