[Q] My bricked DS back from store. but another problem here~

as told as my previous threads, my DS has been bricked
and finally sent to store for repair
now i have got him again~ nice
btw the store helps me flash a rom
but i dunno what is it...
it might be MIUI2.1.13
and cyanogenmod+
then i find i dun like this because:
1/ the market cannot work! i try searching an app but it showed 'error retrieving information from server.' i have googled this and had a factory reset. it works for a second then now the problem again. i think it's so troublemsome.
2/ i dun have chinese input method. i would like to have both english and chinese input method for some convenience. however i couldn't change the input method.
devs, what should i do?
i am wondering should i flash a new rom but i am now freaking that may like my past experience, DS bricked and chip fried.
what should i do?
--------------------update-------------------
3/ i found that there is no button for me to view all apps. i googled but no suitable results.

Go back to the store?

Hi again!
Just flash another ROM with full wipe. Your problems will be gone.
I recommend MIUI, it is Chinese and is great

thanks bro
i have read that before this forum closed for PIPA :S
i am sure my chips are not fried now, yet.
but i am really sucking wif some questions
1/if i want to flash a new rom. what should i do before?
flash a recovery first?
and how can i choose a suitable version of recovery??
and how about the suitable version of rom?
or i should do downgrade or whtever because my DS was bricked and fried as i didn't do downgrade.

I am not sure what is kernel those :S

Just got in the Coolpad 5860E...

So we just got the coolpad 5860E at my metro store. This thing... wow. And not in a good way. It is a larger version of the Wildfire (shudder). 1ghz processor, 512 mb of RAM... it just PALES in comparison to the Motion we got in last week.
Problem is... It will sell better because of the bigger screen.
So, seeing as how we will be offering rooting/flashing and such... Is there any development for this phone (or the LG for that matter)?
I am attaching Quadrant scores for the Coolpad...

fancy seeing this phone outside china.
i got mine in china, slightly different, coolpad instead of metroPCS and no front camera, also only got measlly 256ram
i guess its just a rebranding from the same manufacturer.
BUT juz to be sure. tell me all the hardware spec.
cos there a way to root it for mine, i think.
and will do so as soon as i figure out the chinese writings, and im kinda bad at it for someone whos in china for 3 yrs ;p
any one gud at chinese?
heres the link on how to flash i think.
http://www.dashi.com/guide/776.html
---------- Post added at 01:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:45 PM ----------
juz did some quick research.
i think that might be a 5860+ in chinese market, with a different body/case
it uses the same chipset, the MSM7627, just diff clock speed, higher ram and better camera.
---------- Post added at 01:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:12 PM ----------
further research i found the page i think u r looking for.
http://www.dashi.com/devices/765.html
it contains instruction and roms.
ill report back as soon as i flashed and root my device.
but could'nt be sure if it works on ur, cos we have diff hardware config.
gl on urs thou

juz flashed using the rom from the site
ROOTED alas lulz.
dude u still there?
do you still need the help?

Metro PCS Coolpad root instructions in english really needed
I also got a MetroPCS Coolpad because I got tired of paying $100 a month for sprint and my 4G always disconnecting.
I would like to root this Coolpad and overclock this puppy like I have with all my other phones.
Does anyone want to translate the instructions into english from that Chinese website, it would be greatly appreciated.
God bless you.

didnt thought anyone was interested.
anyhow, here's the driver hope it works. let us know.
uploaded the driver for win7, let me know if u need other driver
i baidu search Chinese rom for u guys and found a way to flash the CWM recovery i think
http://bbs.189store.com/thread-56313-1-1.html
requirement:
M$win os,
applocale, or change system locale to chinese/china
DISCLAIMER: USUAL STUFF IM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY MISHAP, BLAHBLAHBLAHBLAH.....
GIVE CREDIT TO THE CHINESE GUYS AND NOT ME, AND SO FORTH.........
1. open the link above and look for "http:删除我//pan.baidu......"
2. copy paste it to ur browser (remove the chinese character ofcos)
3. download the 5860+第三方recovery.rar by clicking the '下载' button
4. extract after download
5. put ur phone into flash/download mode by, turn ur phone off, connect it to the pc while holding the vol- button.
6. after that open the file ~/客服_7kDownloader/客服_7kDownloader.exe
7. chose the right com port that is ur phone, on the topleft of the aplication
8. and press ’开始‘ at the bottom right, wait till it finish flashing.
sometimes it got stuck, and the solution is to check ur device manager for unknown device
and install the driver (the adb driver i think) and after that it should continue, or repeat the flashing process if not.
(happened to mine)
the process is the same for flashing other roms thats on that board that i posted.
fyi its all in chinese but juz look at [ROM] threads.
also u need to register, login and reply to see the link.
but seing u got CMW, i think you guys can start cooking ur own rom.
PS I CANT TEST IT SEEING THAT I GOT A DIFFERENT(OLDER) CONFIGURATION THAN Y'ALL
BUT GUD LUCK.

Tanks for the driver i will install it right away try the cwm after that so i let you guy's now how everything goes

i apologize for the late reply as i have been busy this past few days.
fret not, as i'll ask for permission for repost of the chinese roms, and translate it as best as i can
it should take a couple of days to do this, but i cant test it as i got a slightly a different hardware.
so, in short i'll be providing instructions and data only. the rest its up to you guys.
cheers

may be any one could try asking coolpad.us for flashing tool, for rom dump.

I did exactly that. Also asked them for a link to the source code for the current android build as it should be released under GPL. You can boot into recovery on these things by holding both Vol Up and Vol Down and powering on. Once you see the droid, press the soft HOME key to bring up the menu. I can't do much with it yet. Haven't gotten fastboot to work. If you hold just Vol UP and power it it takes you to a black screen with white text that says "=======Enter VIA USB======". I thought this was saying "enter via USB" but after doing a
Code:
system_profiler SPUSBDataType
I noticed a device entry with a Manufacture of VIA Telcom. Still this mode does nothing for me. No luck yet, but still digging.

Hey guys, My friend got a coolpad quattro. I used to own a couple evo shift 4g's and it seems to look like through the android system recovery menu that you would need to downgrade to a different android system by tricking the android system into thinking it was an update via the apply update from sdcard. I am not that tech savvy with development or "jail breaking" android bootloaders but I think it might have to start with the partitioning of the blocks first to find where it is placed in the nand chip. I hope that someone can take what I have offered up as advice and try to make some progress with this.

any progress ? root...unlock...

[Q] Can Someone help me with ROM's and Flashing ( and others )

Hi, before anything i would like to say that is my first time posting here and i hope to be posting on the right area of the forum.
i really don't know anything about android except from installing .apk's
I really dont have a good english ( i'm from Brazil )
That being said, let's go: i have a Motorola XT925 ( Razr HD ), i want to change it's ROM to Kitkat, my friend got a new phone but with an old version, when he was searching for updates, the phone found an upgrade and voila ! was the kikat, but mine still in the 4.1.2 build.
Is a viable option wait to see if the Kitkat upgrade is be avaliable to my phone ?
If not, can any one tell me what steps shoul i take to install another ROM ?
I really want to gain RAM and have Clean Kitkat installation, mine is overwhelmed with pre-installed app's and i really don't know what i can remove.
In fact i want to put another ROM, in it, but i'm really scared about bricking my phone.
Can anyone help-me or guide-me trough the right steps ?
And again, sorry for my bad english. I know that who read's it problably gonna have Headache's.
Thanks

Can I upgrade Alcatel Hero 2 to Lollipop?

I'm a complete newbie in the Android world (iPhone user), so I'm so sorry in advance if I'm asking a stupid question. So today I bought an Alcatel Hero 2 from Amazon. The device hasn't arrived yet. The device has Android Kitkat on it and from some youtube review videos I knew that the customized Android version installed on the device is chubby so I thought if I can upgrade to vanilla Lollipop then the performance will improve.
There is very little information on the web about the Hero 2. I only found a webpage (can't post a link here because I'm new but google for "upgrade alcatel hero 2 lollipop" and you'll find it) that says one can upgrade to Lollipop, but it seems to be SCAM. Thus I thought it's better to ask here to get trusted answers since I don't want to get into security problems.
I know what ROMs are and have a little background but I don't know where to get trusted ROMs or if it's possible at all to upgrade my phone. I appreciate any answers.
Many thanks in advance!

Probably not, unless Alcatel comes out with its own Lollipop update or more threads appear here for Hero 2 ROMs.
The Hero 2 isn't very popular, or at least well-known, in the US. I'm surprised you even found it for purchase. Was it on the US Amazon site or a foreign version? Got a link? I was interested in a Hero 2, too, but I could never find it, and now it's getting a little long in the tooth.
Sorry this isn't the answer you wanted. Is it an all right phone overall, though? Reviews were generally favorable.

I don't think there is Lollipop rom for your device.

Hi guys,
any news about lollipop update? Im choosing between Hero 2 and LG G3, but Hero 2 is cheaper for me and it has little bit bigger screen. Any advices please?

This is weird, I looked all over and cannot find any links for original flashing files, not even 4PDA.
But, the rom I ported has no sound (unless you wear headphones), and camera is not working. This was basically just an experiment on trying to port it for first time, but sadly I do not have the device anymore so I won't be able to help much. If you still want to try it, here's the link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/rooting-roms/resurrection-remix-5-8-5-alcatel-t3913051
Meanwhile I'll try to keep looking for the original stock ROM for your device, there has to be something.
I'll let you know if I find anything.

Can anyone help me? Maybe the moderators can make a special category for this.. I don't like the roms made my huawei, but the phones are good and cheap. I had a huawei, and after that samsaung s3 + s4, and now again to huawei. The samsung phones are broking too easy. So anyone can help me with a custom rom light (maybe clean android) and maybe a special category for the phone? I know they are many guys who owns the phone, so xda please, do something. I'm watching this forum everyday for something for my phone., but nothing. Sorry if i post in wrong category, or my english sucks.Have a good day, greetings from Italy.

It recently sent Official Marshmallow update to G Play Mini devices to Asian countries. But sadly there are no custom ROMs for this device.

ROM Needed
Wow, we sure have no update on this one. Any one working on custom ROM for Huawei G Play Mini, i.e, CHC-U01?
