Rom Maneger bricket my phone ((??!!))

Hi guys
I've rooted a Ouku Horizon (P801W) and make a backup with Titaniun Backup Pro to my SDcard of all System and User apps and data.
I wanted to flash a new rom so I get Rom Manager and to backup my current rom (just in case) I installed the flash ClockWorkMod recovery ( I supose that was the first mistake, as I did not get from the list of phones my P801W I install another one)
Then I did "Backup Current Rom" and when the phone reboots it took forever freeze at booting in Ouku logo over black screen.
I soud backup the rom manualy but I didn't
Now I won a brick? or is recoverble?
hard reset (home buton + sound down + Power on) don't get me in to recover mode just no mather what I do it freeze at boot Orku logo.
Please help!!!!
can Odin software be a solution to flash the original or other rom again to the phone?
thanks guys

Yes odin should fix the problem just download original firmware and flash it with odin. Sorry usually i find the tut but now dont have much time.

thanks suki
I'll give it a try

does any one know how to put a Orku Horizon in download mode?
I tried all combinations of butons that I think of and no luck...
any insight?

I supose that Odin is a solution to my nerly bricket phone.
I should flash a recovery or a new compatible rom(?)
unfortunately from Ouku manufactory I can't get any kind of realy technical answer.
so I dont know how to proced with Odin...
my specs are:
Model number - P801W
Android 2.2.2
baseband version iris_p800 v1.20
Kernel 2.3.35.7perf.
[email protected]#3
Build nº FRG83G
software version Iris-p801W_v.21
Hardware version Iris_MP
any insight???????
pls

If you want an official rom just flash the rom using odin.
And for custom roms flash first CWM recovery, and then the rom you like.

I don't mind to put a custom rom in it, unfortunately I don't have any idea wich Rom to use.
If I put Cyanogenmod or Miui and if it is incompatible with Ouku Horizon android phone dont I brick it definitively?
does those custom roms support dual sim?
another thing is that I suppose I bricked my phone when I install a non specific CWM to Orku Horizon (P801W) through Rom Manager
because when it ask for the phone model mine wasn't listed so I chose a model that I tough was a generic...
(what a dumb ass!!!)
thanks a lot for your help Suky08

Flash Rom

I feel like an idiot for asking, but I'm having issues with the ROM part. I'm used to working on HTC phones and this tablet has been a little different for me. I have unlocked the bootloader and flashed twrp thru fastboot. I'm confused on how to flash the roms. The tablet doesn't show up like my phone does on my computer so where do I place the zip, Second question is can I get to recovery thru fastboot like on my phone. It was as simple as fastboot recovery, but I don't see this in any guide. Any help would be appreciated. And an FYI I do not have an sdcard.

Hi,
to install the rom is like all the other devices but since the last OTA update 4.2.1 there are 3 version of rom for our devices
1 based on ICS bootloader
1 based on JB 4.1.1 bootloader
1 based on JB 4.2.1 bootloader
now all depend on which version of android you have when you unlock the device, you can found easly information about that.
to start the recovey you have just to boot on fastboot mode select RCK with the volume down button and push volume+up to confirm
when in verify if you can have access to sdcard and make backup of the system and restart the system to be sure everything works fine (already to many bricked devices around lol)
if you have the bootloader 4.2.1 (last OTA of march) probably you will have problem to access sdcard, this because only one recovery at the moment work on that bootloader TWRP 2.4.4.0-4.2 (not TWRP 2.4.4.0-JB) in any case never install ICS version if you have JB
be carefoul when you will decide to go haed most of the guide are for old versions.

New User with unlocked device looking for help

I recently bought a TF300t second hand and I really need some help! Some years back I was playing around with custom roms on Android devices but im very out of touch.
I would like to install one of the more recent roms on this device. Any suggestion here appreciated.
The device has already been rooted and has TWRP v2.6.3.1 installed. I understand that I need to upgrade this to 2.8. to install the latest roms but im having issues doing that. For a start im unsure how to find out if I have the latest Bootloader 4.2
I really dont want to brick this device!
I tried using ADB to update TWRP but the usb connection never seemed to find my device in the right mode.
The device is currently running Android 4.2.1
Custom ROM CROMi-Xenogenesis 5.4 - 10.6.127.5 WW ODEX.
Any help and advice really appreciated )

Android 4.2.1 is newest official.
10.6..... is bootloader version - newest there is.
flashing recovery and/or ROM will not overwrite bootloader - it stays the same.
You can go to twrp official website and get 2.8.0.1-4.2 blob to flash (unless your target rom states different version needed - see 1st post of yout target thread) - I got it from there - flashed KatKiss using it.
ADB - when android is running.
fastboot - on bootloader screen (booted with voldown+power - RCK / android / wipe data icons) - used to flash twrp blob

Ok got it all fixed now. Thanks!

So, not to hijack, but I'm actually in a similar boat. I'm currently rooted and unlocked on 4.1.1 TWRP 2.3.3.0 and am looking to flash the new 5.0 Rom.
Does anyone have a handy guide on what I should do? Do I just need to flash a 4.4 compatible TWRP version, then flash the ROM? Would like to avoid bricking my tablet.

Yes here you are ....
Get the SKU from your bootloader screen .....
Then go to the Asus website and get the firmware for your SKU ending in 27.5 ...
Then unpack the zip and there will be another zip unzip it you will find a file called blob ....
Flash this blob from fastboot ...
Thx Josh

[Help] Custom Recovery

Phone Model: Cherry Mobile Omega HD 3.O
Android Version: 5.1
[P] ⤵
I can't find compatible Custom Recovery for my phone. CWM and TWRP doesn't support my phone model. I researched for another way and I found something but requires same Build Number. I have V08 build number.
I wanna install Framework on my phone
Hope anyone can find solution.
TIA.
------- update -------
I found some thread and saying to use flashfire. Another problem is flashfire only read superSU not Kingroot(kinguser). I dunno how to change/switch to another root. I found something but requires to flash via custom recovery which my main problem was.

Up?

Help rooting Sonim XP7?

Hey smart people!
Anyone know how to root a Sonim XP7? I will gladly donate something to your favorite charity if your rooting solution works!
So far towelroot.apk doesn't work. I know how to use ADB but don't feel comfortable pushing a new boot loader without being able to backup and restore the existing one.
Here are some numbers from the About phone tab
Model number
XP7700
Processor info
Qualcomm MSM8926
Android Version
4.4.4
Kernel version
3.4.0-gd494dd5-00272-g04987ab

Hey,
Would be happy to help you root your Sonim XP7 running KitKat 4.4.4 ---- In return I ask for a factory ROM image. This will in turn benefit you as well. I messed up my own when doing a custom Lollipop ROM, and would rather not build from scratch or send it back to Sonim. ... yeah I didn't back it up beforehand
Also -- Sonim now has a 5.1 Lollipop version available, I've extracted the FOTA (Update Image) as well. First thing we'd need to do is backup the entire storage setup, can help with this. There are some tools you'll need.
Shoot me a e-mail -- [email protected] and I'll drop you my Skype.
Thanks,
Justin

Hey. Root received via kingoroot. I can remove the firmware dumps. Who bought XP7, I can not forgive him via fastboot, drivers are installed, but the firmware is not. Before was XP7, pierced him through fastboot, without any problems. What could be the problem?

Stuck in recovey
jeagle24, do you think you could help me out? I had my sonim xp7 rooted and i updated the firmware via the factory way. now my phone is stuck in recovery and i do not have a factory rom to flash it.

Has anybody had any luck pulling the factory files off? My XP7 was stock, I did a factory reset and now its stuck at the sonim logo. I can get access to recovery and fastboot, I have tried a factory reset etc. I think I need to fastboot flash boot.img

It sounds like rooting doesn't work for the xp7
