Defy Froyo 3.4.2 Cookie Cutter Rom​
Q. How Do I use the Update.zip?
A. Go to Market & Download Defy SD-Recovery & Install..
1. Next place the Update.zip on the /sdcard via PC
2. Turn on MoTo Phone Portal ( SD-Recovery is SD Based so you need to Turn Off USB Mass Storage )
3. ADB Debugging does not have to be Turned Off on my version
Once Booted into the Recovery apply the update.zip
wait a few minutes & it should be done...
Please Reads the notes I left in the Update.zip if you build a Custom Update.zip, this will save you trouble down the road.
What's Flashed?
A. Boot.img
B. dev_tree
C. Moto Blur 3.4.2 Rom ( Yes I know it's not the latest, built off what I had )
D. UNO & TMO-TV Removed
E. Rooted ( SU & Superuser )
F. Busybox Installed to xbin
G. Rest of Rom is stock
Once installed, remove eugene.apk from /system/app ( Old boot strap that need adb turned off before rebooting / defy sd-recovery does not have this issue)
Q. I Edited the update.zip & Now it fails verf. in recovery when trying to flash!
A. example of signapk on signing the edited update
java -Xmx1024m -jar signapk.jar -w testkey.x509.pem testkey.pk8 update1.zip update.zip

Hey eugene,
Glad to see you working on Defy too
I think this will be major help for developers and btw that 3.4.2 version did you used? since there are many of them.
Thanks.
um. 107 I think since it has a floating update.zip someplace & sbf.
Ill update to the latest when I start building roms

i don't understand. is the boot.img still the signed cg35.smg?
if so, can't we just use the cmw to do that?
can you post more detailed chages you made over cmw?
other than the signapk and usb debugging described.
many thanks.
eugene373 - great work!

Same here, i'm pretty interested in more details, thank you
this Zip File is for what ?
Thanks
Greetings
you can not use cwm due encryption. If you dont know what an update.zip is stick to nandroid...
This is for rom builders.
Heading out, when I get home ill make it clearer.
Though, now that I think about it cwm might be fine due to the nature of how it works.
Ill test later and let everyone know

So we are able to install updates via the "normal" Motorola Recovery mode? So we are able to get a "unbrickable" Defy?
Edit: got it myself. The ZIP File won't be recognized by the motorola recovery... anyway thanks for your job
Now, what can SD-recovery do? Can it write other partitions, like cdt.bin?

CwM can do exactly the same afaik, i've already made quite a few update.zip with it.
after reading all your notes, do you actually mean that we can't use format on those patitions?
if you do, well, i learned it the hard way, and delete_recursive also works for me.
thanks for putting up an excellent example if not for anything else, it's much needed.

Correct, you can only format with the stock recovery ( Hence the reason why I used the Stock Recovery ) any Partition with cwm recovery will cause a non-booting system..
regarding cwm I've not tested it, so Likely it will work.. Steven is still working on the cwm recovery & there is no point in me adding another cwm bootstrap recovery... Mine is just pure stock & works perfect.
I'm still weeding through the /bin /etc file's to find exactly what needs left...
but main goal was to provide an example of what is needed to make an update.zip with out breaking the system.

Update versus a nandroid, I would have thought it was a no brainier....
Build & edit roms on the fly + being able to flash boot.img & downgrading is fine without sbf unless you screw up completely..

Hey Furzbirre,
I tried everything here - no luck. Could you please tell me what you exactly did?
I have a 8.6.6.23 / BA0 / TF101G (seems pretty the same version you have).
Thank you very much, Thomas
PS: What I tried already:
- downgrade with 8.6.6.19 version floating around on multiupload
- unzipped the epad...zip from the download
- put it on microsd, internal sd, renamed it to EP101_SDUPDATE.zip
- rebooted with vol-down/power, then vol-up: android update started
- yellow sign: no update possible - still 8.6.6.23
-> what have you done diffrently?

Hello,
I have the same TF101g than tsch with 8.6.6.23 ROM.
I used NachoRoot and I have successfully rooted my TF101G.
But now I don't know how to install ClockWork Mode ?
See the link in my signature for assistance with CWM.
in some thread i found this method: after you unzip file, you make name one copy of this file ""EP101_SDUPDATE"" then you make another copy of this same file and name ""WW_epad-user-8.6.6.19"" so on the end you have 2 same files with diferent names, now you copy this 2 files to micro sd card
and another copy 2 files to tablet sdcard, root folder
after going to recovery mode is installing with no problem, just done 2 days ago
and dont forget to remove this files after instalation and reboot
i hope is gonna work for you ether
Yeah, just don't bother putting them on the internal memory, it doesn't search the root of that drive, it checks the system/cache (I think) folder for official Asus updates, stick with keeping it on external memory, especially if unrooting because if you place these files on your internal and return it if someone else roots the device and finds these files it is a smoking gun that it has been rooted in the past. Just in case...keep it on your external (and that might have been my post you read that in, I have found that the EP101_SDUPDATE file is not even necessary )

[ROOT GUIDE] How to root the FeiTeng mini N9300/Spreadtrum 6820 !!!
Hi All,
A lot of people out there buy Chinese phones for a good amount of reasons.For one they are cheap and
usually easy to work with.But there comes a time when that isn't enough resulting in many people looking
for ways to hack or the Android term "root" there phone to get the most out of it.Unfortunately they come
across many problems such as No brand name,Unknown brand name,or just no info about it whatsoever.
That is why i have created this guide on rooting the N9300
DISCLAIMER!! This method generally will work with any N9300 android phone i just might take
a few trys and will not harm it.HOWEVER if you do brick your phone i am not responsible.(See pics for details)
WARNING!!! Rooting a device will void ANY warranty you may have.
Phone Specs
Brand: FeiTeng,Spreadtrum,
Device: Hsdroid
Model: N9300
Android: ICS 4.0.3
Build number: 6829_C909_DJGT_V06
Build ID: MocorDroid 2.2.2
CPU: Armeabi-v7a
CPU Frequency: 1Ghz
Board: SP6820a
Display: 3.5 inch Capacitive screen
RAM: 256MB
ROM: 256MB
How to Root:
Lets begin with the actual rooting process
1. Download Z4Root.v1.3.0 and install it on device memory/internal memory (Don't install it on SD Card!!!) and don't open it after installing
2. Go to Setting -> Applications -> Development -> then enable USB debugging
3. Open & run Z4Root
4. Click Temporary Root option, wait till its done successfully and open it again
5. After doing the Temporary Root with no problems,Choose the Permanent Root option
6. Wait and see till it's done
7. After them Permanent Root has done, your device will reboot itself
8. After reboot has done, you will find Superuser has installed on your device
9. It's really easy & safe. But if it not successful & Superuser is not installed, try restarting your device and try from the first step
10. Please remember, this method is for the >>>> Mini <<<< N9300 :angel:
Info
That's it!You have Successfully rooted your device!Now you can install things like
Root App Uninstaller and get rid of root apps or Mount r/w r/o so you can edit
files int the /system folder! If this helped you, post a comment or :good: it,its always a help.
Or if you have a question feel free to ask and ill do my best to help!

If you use Root Explorer you should be able to still copy the file to your sd card.
Then you can send it to me and i can see if you are able to root it and if there is

There is 2 colors on N9300 (Black and White)
I found the firmware for black. Click here for Download
IF you use in on white it wont work. What color do you have?
My advice is to just root it. It wont brick it and then tell me if you are
successful or not. If not i will think of another way.
Hello folks, i have Galaxy Core 2 SM-G355H and i have rooted my phone and installed the CWM recovery, which i think has done good.
Even the phone after being rooted hasn't done me any good.
I had initially started a topic here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-core/help/copy-to-ssd-samsung-galaxy-core-2-sm-t3033178
But the OP hasn't been able to give me some working solutions.
So i am asking to anyone who knows about this stuff. I have rooted and installed CWM recovery, that still given me authority
over my SD-Card, i cannot copy/paste/delete/rename basically access it fully.
The only way i can do is, remove the SD-Card and insert in a Card reader and copy/paste/delete etc.
But i cannot directly do from phone itself.
I already have fX Explorer, Solid explorer and ES File Explorer.
Nothing has worked, so i am asking can anyone show me how to do that.
I would be grateful for your suggestion.
Awaiting reply.

The FS /system and other too is/are readonly (ro) in device, so if u want to delete or copy inside this partition u must change it to rw (readwrite), it's better for you to use some Explorer root based application like FX Explorer with root addon ...
If u have copied the update zip to extSdCard and run the update procedure in stock recovery U should be able to copy/edit/delete files on your extSdCard - Card if the install were sucessfull.
For a check: Install app https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...=nextapp.sdfix and check again things now U'r rooted. Regards

My device is Galaxy Core 2 SM-G355H, Android 4.4.2. I have already rooted and installed CWR mode, but i havn't flashed my firmware.
I am searching now for a possible firmware update, that could access memory card.
Could you do a small part from your side and find a firmware that can be flashed in my device, i will try from my side. :good:

All of the stock firmwares uses KK RO acess for SdCard unless U install some custom & fixed ones.
Have also provided many tutorials in the subforums detaily how to fix it for GC2 models.

OK, thanks for the statement. I accept, i am a newbie here. I can figure my way through most of the other forum out there.
But one pertaining to Mobile device require's little more knowledge, because its tricky, since there are a huge number of devices.
I am not a regular visitor.
Anyways, i found a firmware for my device.
Link:

http://samsung-updates.com/details/42605/Galaxy_Core_2/SM-G355H/INS/G355HXXU0AOC1.html
The second link to the firmware matched the hashes to the link in the first link.
Did the Odin thing, and all the necessary steps. But still i am not able to copy/paste/delete etc function.
So i technically give up for this device, i'll use it as it is.
@StratOS_HTC: I tried the KitKat access app from Google Play store, a number of them. But they all showed similar results.
But i'll be open to your opinion.
Thank you.:good:

Hello folks, i have Galaxy Core 2 SM-G355H and i have rooted my phone and installed the CWM recovery, which i think has done good.
Even the phone after being rooted hasn't done me any good.
I had initially started a topic here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-core/help/copy-to-ssd-samsung-galaxy-core-2-sm-t3033178
Awaiting reply.

As said and will said again :
Please read carefully !
Hope your phone works ok and everything else on phone is ok.
If you can't access your extSdCard throught phone do a low level format ( and hope you don't use 64 GB ).
Hope also you don't use any other EXT partition on your sdcard. or any other sd linkage or swap options on your sdcard
Format the sdcard as only extFAT or FAT on any other comp card reader and reformat it on the phone !
Now you should be able to access the sdcard on your phone if every thing else on phone is ok.
If U'r rooted on stock ( KitKat sdcard restriction ) and if U have installed nextapp.sdfix and grant su access to it the app will change this permissions for you and you will be able to aceess rw to sdcard now.
