So i'm using sony's guide to unlock the bootloader ( Can't provide link as i can't give outside links yet)
And all goes fine untill i get to step 12-13 , i keep hold of the vol up button while plugging in the usb , but nothing happens windows doesn't ask me for the driver location and my screen is simply blank.
i did confirm i could unlock the boot loader , i've installed android SDK and the revison of "google USB driver package" is 4, and i've replaced the android_winusb.inf
My phone is on build number : 4.0.2.A.0.42
it's rooted and is on android version 2.3.4
Any help would be appreciated
should i do it or not
I have been anonymously browsing the forums for about 5-6 hours and i have learned anything and everything that is there to learn about rooting unlocking and everything.
But there are two things I am concerned with and i'd really like your help.
these are related to unlocking bootloader
1. i have reached the point where blue led shows up... do i still need to do the testpoint method before using s1tool?
2. my manufacture date on the phone is 11w46. should i try to unlock the bootloader or not?
model: xperia ray st18i
fully rooted and cwm installed
bootloader unlock support : yes
i cannot ask in the developers forums just yet that's why i am asking here..
all the utilities installed in the laptop, just need a green light from you guys.
please help me out here... i am really stuck right now.:crying:
P.S. : I DO NOT want to lose DRM data.

try version 3 first the universal one. then you can play with the others by updating through stock recovery. i bet you have a dual core one. press vol down , ok and power button at the same time on boot and go to version. if it says MAUI on the list then we have the same clone

Try to read the chinacarts website because you download the one for quadcore micro_sim_s3_quadcore_dualcore_firmware_20130107 the link i provided you is the the one that worked for me.
Version 3:
For micro sim version
(When you make upgrade the phone success,the boot screen will start on"welcome"logo,dial"*#2013#"or"*#0825#" then press"OK" reboot the phone,the boot logo will changed to Samsung Logo)
Firmware( Released on 07,Jan,2013) this firmware universal for MT6575,MT6577,MT6589 CPU:https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B4AdByfaH4T0TjVjc2w0OXVqQUE
Now mind your manners and be thankful and READ! we are not obliged to help out. Did you tried out this UNIVERSAL FIRMWARE! if you do then it never worked then there is nothing we can do to your expensive paperweight.

i also have issue with my s3 clone mtk6577... its no longer turning on after trying to odex it.. tried to flash the firmware and thats when the phone no longer turning on.. please help me.. im trying to flash it again using the flash tool but stuck in 0% what do i need to do?
I have the same problem. S3 micro sim clone MTK6589, new firmware tried (chinaecarts.com/s3firmware20130320.rar ), then the phone not booting.
I just contacted with Chinaecarts.com, they tried to solve the problem but not working.
Also tried with the universal firmware, but it sad I've MTK6577 phone, not MTK6575.
If I will have fresh news, will post it.
(seller said, I should send the phone back, and they will fix it.)
I tried with this:
H.tps://docs.google.com/open?id=0B4AdByfaH4T0TjVjc2w0OXVqQUE
It is theoretically for the MTK6577 and MTK6589 as well. Got the previous result: "Platform error. The target platform is MT6577_S00."
I think there is a solution for the blank screen problem:
- need a Flash Tool. (on the link above you can find it, or on the link in my previous post)
- need a firmware for MTK6577 micro sim card.
I tried with many sdcard firmware versions, but no effective result.
Hi,
1, You need to know what is exact model of your s3 mtk6577. There are many s3 mtk6577 models in the market. Different s3 mtk6577 is made by different manufacturer, so the ROM is definitely different.
2. After you get the right ROM, then flash your phone by using flash tool SPMultiPortFlashDownloadProject
Bricked MTK6577
The image of the S3-micro-sim-version-20121210 this with corronpidos files, and the method that you should have done to retrieve your appliance was using the recover instead of SP tools because the files are not in rar. SP standard my phone so can enter META mode and nothing more.

It looks I have the exact model of yours. I am trying to update the firmware by entering the recovery (I suppose it is {vol up + power}). But my external sdcard is not mounted to pick the rom from.
I hope this may help you? I had the same problems as you with the same phone after rooting it I deleted the original rom as it went into a loop and would not start so I started installing every firmware I can find and install, I got one which works BUT! no English , it boots English then goes into several languages but not English it is HDCI9300 rom. I googled it as no one seems able or do not want to help although I have asked several times in many different ways. I hope this will get your phone at least to boot up, I used sp flash as this rom will not let you do anything with the sd card (if it does you need to translate one of the languages)? I hope this helps, if not you have lost nothing:fingers-crossed:
Hello. I have a similar problem with yours. A friend of mine has a 100% visual clone (MTK6577) with the same sticker under the battery like in the first post, he tried to flash it, but he messed up something, and then he brought it to me completely DEAD . No charging, no PC connection - nothing... I tried many button combos, and accidentally i found out that if i connect the phone without battery, press and hold VOL+, VOL- & POWER for a few seconds, the PC detected the mediatek com port , installed the drivers without problem, and now the real problems begins - the ROM. I tried all of the roms from chinaecarts but without success, first i couldn't flash the thing, and after downloading several roms from chinaecarts, and finally flashed it and guess what - no LCD :silly: . So i tried combining different files from different roms, and now i'm at a point where i can turn on the phone, screen goes white, but the phone boots, it makes the vibration after the boot process completes, and after that the phone is responding to touches (it vibrates), lock/unlock works, PC detects USB Mass Storage Device, USB Composite Device and MTK65xx Android Phone. I also noticed that in the FW packages i downloaded there are some files that aren't flashed (i think) like for example the kernel.img so i was wondering if i can flash it manually? Please someone help, share some FW links, i can't find anymore...
can anyone help with this?? or even identify which s3 clone the phone is from the first post... i have tried many "solutions" for clone 6577 and NONE works.. I have scoured the internet for possible solutions and nothing..
help please!

If i try to enter in recovery mode i see a screen with the usb cable in the centre and starting from left on top the following commands :
Droidbot provision os
IFWI version 51.33
serial num . 1111111111111111
Droidboot version : local build or english version
After, all the command with volume up and down for :
Reboot droidboot
reboot
factory reset
sd download
power off
Down in can see :
E: unable to open debricking
Fastboot init...
Fastboot CMD WAITING...
That's all.
I don't know what to do to unbrick the tablet, before was android 4.3 but now i don't know what i have done.
Please help me if you can with instructions and programs to use.
The device is not seen by my pc with seven and if i try to flash the original asus upgrade it fails.
Hope you can help me.

Hi, Thanks for using XDA assist.
It looks like there is no dedicated forum for your device, however
There is a general forum for android here http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help where you can try to ask to get expert's help.
Good luck
