[ROOT] for Sophone V75 MTK6575 maybe Godphone too

I have managed to get my Sophone V75 to a stage where I have ICS 4.0.3, ClockWorkMOD in English, ROOT privledges and a working Google Play Store aka the Android Market
Here are some toys for people to play with, (I accept no responsibility for bricked devices etc etc...)
You will need to have ADB drivers installed on your PC and your phone with USB Debugging enabled.
1) An ENGLISH version of ClockWorkMOD (CWM) for the Sophone V75 with MTK6575 CPU
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?w5pzb2sq3jpa9vt
2) The SP Flash Tool for MTK6575 devices
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?wbbd4tqby4p4537
3) The DoomLord tool to Root your Sophone V75 running ICS
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?m4xgvut4w5ddh55
4) The HTC ADB VCOM driver
http://www.mediafire.com/?z6f695zx5zr0yqk
5) The firmware I used in combination with SP Flash Tool and the CWM Recovery file
http://www.mediafire.com/?c82xozd1f1i2cy5
And last but not least...
6) A CWM backup of an ICS 4.0.3 ROM for the Sophone V75 with working Google Play Store
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?quo8bxedoqbch7c
The steps I took
1) I factory defaulted the phone
2) Installed the HTC driver
3) Enabled USB debugging on the phone
4) plugged it in
5) I used the DoomLord tool to Root the Phone.
6) Extracted the MP_MT75_h910_v75w_kaiy_ics_aphone+201206....rar firmware file to one directory
7) Extracted the SP Flash Tool to another directory
8) Copied the CWM Recovery file to another directory
9) Started the SP Flash tool and loaded the scatter file (NOT the FORMAT scatter file)
10) Changed the recovery file to the CWM Recovery version
11) Then I used the SP Flash Tool to flash the firmware and CWM Recovery to the phone by clicking download
12) I then installed ROMmanager and used it to boot to recovery
13) Finally I used CWM recovery menu to apply the ROM zip file and reboted into my new ICS phone.
I know this is not a Step by Step with pictures etc. Let me know if it works for you.
My only problem now is that my phone seems to have a radio IMG that is not very good as I am in a fringe reception area.
I would appreciate help in improving my 2G/3G reception, Does anyone have a good radio backup?

I did not have any luck with your link, It came back with file not found.
Did you paste the link in right or am I doing something wrong?

Hi,
First of all. thanks for posting this tutorial, now I have a chance to make my now useless Soponhe V75 (just got it ) to a workable Anrdoird- iPhone replica.
Now my question:
How should I use the SP Flash Tool to flash the CWM Recovery to the phone?
How can I even "upload" the CWM recovery to the program?
I tried to look for some quides for the SP flash tool, and it showed one ought to remove the battery at some point. Isn´t the Sophone battery soldered in?
If you could elaborate the flashing process, I would aprecciate it.
I managed to root the phone though. Now I just want the new IOS and google play to work (without these horrible chinese apps).
Thank you!

This is the correct link
https:
//rapidshare.com/files/2248738...666 - Copy.zip
Hopefully it works.
I have tried to install your recovery file but with no succes. The phone does not go further after apple logo. I have an other recovery file that works but it is in chinese.
Where did you find this recovery file?
Thanks in advance

You reminded me that I left out a step.
I used the SP Flash tool and a firmware I was supplied by the factory and replace the supplied Recovery file wit the CWM recovery file.
I will try to remember to upload the firmware tonight.

How were you able to flash the Sophone in the first place,
I have spent hours installing & unistanling MT6575 USB VCOM drivers so that I could flash the recovery img to the phone.
I was able to install the recovery.img via Rom manager application.
By the way,what does the firmware you didin´t put on the instrucitons do and do I also need the flashing tool to work for uploading it?
I was able to install the Android.4.0_623.zip and I now have android on the phone.
Does anyone know If I the Goophone IOS 5.1 sotware works with Sophone?
In addition, if I now try to factory reset the phone, is there a file in the phone memory that has a back up of the original IOS-copy software?
(If not, could someone upload their back-up file of the original settings for this phone)
Thanks alot!

The firmware I forgot the link for is just what I used to flash the CWM recovery with.
I extracted it and used the scatter file in the SP Flash Tool (NOT the FORMAT one), extracted the CWM recovery to another directory and double clicked the recovery file in the SP Flash Tool and changed it to the CWM Recovery file.
I then clicked the download button.
As for getting the ADB USB driver working, I think I used the HTC drivers, it says driver HTC corporation version 2.0.7.3
Try this one for the HTC ADB VCOM driver
http://www.mediafire.com/?z6f695zx5zr0yqk
And this is the firmware I used in combination with SP Flash Tool and the CWM Recovery file

I tried the Goophone ROM REX V3 and my phone would not boot, I am pretty sure the Goophone ROMS are not compatible with the Sophone V75
Regards the original IOS, you could try my link to file #5 in the original post It is the firmware I was supplied by the factory.
I have updated the instructions in the first post too.

Thanks for all the information again ufbc.
The android OS and google play now work flawlessly but,
I now have the exact same problem as you have, I have horrible wifi reception on the phone! I have to stand next to my router in order to get any signal. In addition, I get no 2G or 3G (or any data) at all, there isn´t even a 2G/3G/4G sign next to the signal bar (I´m in Finland, and there never seems to be any problems with 2/3G...)
Please, If you manage to find a goot radio image (neither of the links Richende posted seem to work right now) and a quick tutorial on how to install / flash the upgraded radio image, I would be really thankful!

Do you have a copy of the ROM you had loaded before you flashed my ROM to your phone? If so cold you post a link to it.
Perhaps someone could unpack the baseband from it and combine the best of each ROM.

Unfortunately I did not save any back ups per se, as by being a noob at this thing I thought the original ROM would be auotmatically saved in the phone memory. (I.e. doing a factory reset would get me back to the original IOS)
But do you have atleast some kind of 2G/3G/edge reception?
Since I have none, and I was wondering if the ICS version you uploaded is not intended for EU mobile networks?
I posted to Q&A already if someone can help in finding a good radio.img file.

I have that ROM running and both 2G and 3g work great in town, but not at home in the country.
You could try flashing the other firmware that is flashed using the SP Flash Tool and see if that improves things.
It is always a good idea to do a BACKUP B4 you FLASH, I know.... too little too late.
What carrier are you with and what frequencies do they use for 2G and 3G?
You could go into the engineering settings and check the correct base-bands are supported and enabled.

Yes, backups, whatever the device or situation should be taken.
With wise words, "next time" ...
Anyway,
In finland 2G and 3G use 900 MHz, 1800 MHz and 2100 MHz frequencies.
I went into the baseband area of the engineer mode
All that there is is Adress (Hex): FF
Value (Hex): 0
Block size (dec): 1
Frankly, I have no idea what these mean and how I´m supposed to check wether the settings are ok for 900,1800 and 2100 MHz.
(Ps. The glass is rather fragile on the Sophone. I dropped it VERY lightly today while sitting, and I got a small fracture line both at the back and front cover.´)
I´m wondering if I could just buy a iPhone 4s front glass and replace that without complications this one.

The frequencies are in the BandMode menu

Heya,
Thanks again!
So is this
-the original IOS copy for sophone
-an upgraded IOS copy with better radio
-or another ICS with a possibly better radio image?
or did you perhaps upload this file so that I could extract the radio image and try flashing it? (In this one its named modem.img i think)
Also, If I want to back up my current rom with ROM Manager, which phone model should I choose?
( I have the ICS here now from your original post).

This is another ROM I found from a Russian website.
It is an IOS version and uses ICS
This ROM seemed to greatly improve my 2G/3G signal, and it still has a working Gogle Play store.
I suggest you do a backup with CWM before you flash this. Make sure you have a full charge before backing up as it took ages on my phone.
Let me know how it goes.
Oh, when it first booted it showed text in Russian but then rebooted into English.
Click the thanks button if it works for you.

Great to hear this ROM version improved your 2G/3G signal.
I backed up my rom and flashed this IOS copy ROM.
I´m happy to say that my 3G and Wifi reception improved as well!
The reception isn´t quiet the same still as on my Motorola Defy+ and I have to test it in rural areas, but so far so good.
Do you btw know if there is a possibility to use both this IOS mimic and and the Android ICS (for example boot into ICS) ?
Thanks again!
-----------------------
ps. The front glass digitizer has a different ribbon cable than Iphone 4s an the Goophone Y5.
Thus it seems almost impossible to change the front glass if you break it. There are no contact details available directly to sophone anywhere.
Gosh how annoying!
I´m pretty sure people who have bought the phone will eventually start dropping their devices and we really need to find a solution to get a replacement LCD & digitalizer/glass replacements for this phone!

[HELP] Looking for Stock Rom for Alcatel OT-983

Hello, and hope this is the right place to post this.
So, without any knowledge about all this smatphone/android stuff, I finally got one by a really good price. An ot-983.
Some friends conviced me to root it. I found a way to do it and noticing all the bloatware from it's original carrier (this phone was carrier unlocked when bought) I decided to clean up a bit.
I ended up cleaning a lot of stuff that I simply didn't use from a \custapp\ folder in there.
Thing is, a day latter I got a notification of a firmware update and I just said yes.
The said update failed, complaining it seems about the lack of some of the deleted bloatware.
Now, here's when the lack of thinking shows.
Wondering about it, I decided to look around options and found the factory reset.
Being a new and mostly empty phone, I did it (wiped clean the sd too),
And there, it went all into hell!
After reboot, it can't get my wireless anymore (have to use a static ip workaround for it...)
Root Checker says it's not properly rooted (using the same rooting technique as the first time doesn't fix it)
superuser still seems to be working, altho it crashes now and then with some errors about permissions.
also, can't get BusyBox working because it says there's no su binary and I can't download an update for it.
In short, I guess I need to get this phone to it's basics, if possible unbranded.
I don't really know what I need for that, but here I am, reaching at you that might help
I guess I need a stock rom and a way to flash it.
I'd appreciate a lot any help on getting whatever it is needed.
*cheers

I simply downloaded the drivers from alcatel website
and then used the root package from here: <can't post outside links. it's a thread on error-soft dot net
Followed the instructions on the .txt included and it worked.
After that I think I had to install Superuser app (from live store)
be careful. My problems came from deleting some stock apps included and then doing a firmware update.
so, don't delete stuff around if you're thinking in doing the upgrade.

Where did you get the upgrade from ?

My story is like this: rooted, uninstalled some bloat from system and after a factory reset I'm stuck in the initial setup wizard (after completing almost all stages from setup it crashes at the end, after connecting at the google account - tryed to ignore that step but either way it crashes). Fastboot works but adb don't.
I do have another identical phone Alcatel One Touch OT-983 but with no root, with no modifications. Is there a way to backup the original/stock image and flash it over the malfunctioning one and restore it??
I tried with the proprietary upgrade tool from Alcatel but no succes as it close saying I don't need an upgrade because it's the last version of software installed in my phone. I thought even to broke intentionally the rom but I'm afraid that the upgrade utility from Alcatel will let me down, as I read that another users didn't managed to complete successfully the upgrading process. Is there a way to trick the system that has a previous version of Android?
Thank you for taking your time to read this and hope someone has an idea to solve our problem.
Have a nice day guys, you can contact me at puiocku at gmail dot com.

I recently "semi bricked", if my Alcatel OT983, if that's possible. It would not boot fully and got stuck on the "jrdsetupwizard has stopped" screen.
Here's what I did. The issue with getting the Alcatel One Touch Upgrade software to work appears to be getting the correct USB Driver installed. There are a number of potential USB drivers. This phone needs the driver in the Alcatel One Touch Upgrade. The stock Windows one or the one used for rooting the phone using instructions from the errorsoft website from the oneofgod will not work with this upgrade procedure.
1. Download the Alcatel One Touch Upgrade software and install on your machine. Open up the folder where the software is installed.
Look inside the folder that is called USB Driver and look inside the appropriate folder for your type of Windows machine 64bit or 32bit (x86) and install that driver for USB - that is the correct one for the upgrade
2. Run the upgrade software whilst connected to the internet. Connect your phone when it is off. You should just get the Android icon i.e. not charging or anything else. The icon should just stay there all the time the process takes place.
3. The upgrade will download. It's when the process gets to about 70% that the phone the starts upgrading. It will take a few moments but when it starts progressing into the late 70s and 80s you should be well on the way. At least that's how it went for me and I got my phone back!
Hope this helps.

Tanks for share the ROM.. I need it to recover my friends phone..

I just got this phone, not looking to root it yet as theres no option for a custom rom yet.
didnt want to start a new thread as theres not really any section for this phone yet.
Everything was fine until i installed the firmware update. Now applications cannot access the mic. Some complain about it being in use by another app. others like video editor or sound recorder will record, but the video recorder there is no file, and sound recorder crashes when you hit stop.
Alcatels website is useless, wasnt working yesterday, today it is but cant find any contact details incase its a bug in there firmware. Everything works fine except for that. Which is annoying because i use RTA software and now it doesnt as it cant access the mic.
any ideas?

Hi guys,
I've rooted my phone with abd and udpate.zip a long time ago, and it was fine till some days ago it stopped from receiving calls and the home button does nothing when pressed, although in recovey mode it works.
I've done a hard reset, reflashed the recovery.img, system.img and boot.img I've found in this post with fasboot, but did not solve the problem.
I've tried a firmware update with Alcatel's own software but it just keeps saying my firmware is updated already. I've also tried to edit the proinfo file, but I don't know what to change in the file. You can see more about that method here: http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/9772370-post8.html
My guess is that the files that are corrupted and preventing me from receiving calls are somewhere else than those img's I've flashed. Has anybody got a FULL backup of his rom (e.g. Rom Manager) so I can recover the phone completely?
Thanks!

upgrade software
bussand said:
I recently "semi bricked", if my Alcatel OT983, if that's possible. It would not boot fully and got stuck on the "jrdsetupwizard has stopped" screen.
Here's what I did. The issue with getting the Alcatel One Touch Upgrade software to work appears to be getting the correct USB Driver installed. There are a number of potential USB drivers. This phone needs the driver in the Alcatel One Touch Upgrade. The stock Windows one or the one used for rooting the phone using instructions from the errorsoft website from the oneofgod will not work with this upgrade procedure.
1. Download the Alcatel One Touch Upgrade software and install on your machine. Open up the folder where the software is installed.
Look inside the folder that is called USB Driver and look inside the appropriate folder for your type of Windows machine 64bit or 32bit (x86) and install that driver for USB - that is the correct one for the upgrade
2. Run the upgrade software whilst connected to the internet. Connect your phone when it is off. You should just get the Android icon i.e. not charging or anything else. The icon should just stay there all the time the process takes place.
3. The upgrade will download. It's when the process gets to about 70% that the phone the starts upgrading. It will take a few moments but when it starts progressing into the late 70s and 80s you should be well on the way. At least that's how it went for me and I got my phone back!
Hope this helps.

Official Shouyue Hero v6888 (mt6577) Stock European ROM 13052016

Stock rom with occidental google apps that cam with the 2nd gen of V6888 (The one with no logo and with the back you can remove from top right)
No Root, no Recovery, but no chinese apps: just for prople who wants to restore the phone to a clean stock rom then you can easily root and add recovery.
I had to ask a seller for it, Pandawill has only the old one with tons of china apps and no european market.
The archive contains drivers with explanation, SP Flash Tools and the folder with the rom itself.
You must use "download" function since BOOT ini will remain the older one.
Apparently this firmware saved even my camera that didn't work before.
Be careful and, anyhow, you can find the older stock rom from Pandawill easily.
Here is the UbuntuOne Link
Hero V6888.rar

Inside the rar you'll find the flash tool, just follow a tutorial to flash an MTK.
In a nutshell:
-open the SPFlashTool
-choose file->open scatter and select the scatter in the firmware folder (there is just one, you can't go wrong)
-connect the phone to the computer (Win only, sorry) without the battery, press Download, then Ok when he says boot.ini is missing
-insert the battery and the it will start flashing the firmware till you see a green circle.
Disconnect, boot, and here you are!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdUdHejJor4
here is a video of a full tutorial that consider even the driver setup, but you don't need it if you installed snappea or PDAnet , since the MTK driver are installed by those two software.
Or just google around for the MTK6577 drivers, maybe you can find them in a standalone installer.
If you have win 7/8 remember to allow the non signed driver installation (google is your friend here too...hehehe)

Thanks DioMOrgan
I have few questions:
Will this work on an already rooted phone? (more like do I have to skip any steps so as not to root it again?)
Does this install ENglish Play store (You mentioned Occidental but was not sure of which language it might contain)
WIl this also cure the satellite and GPS problmes reported elsewhwre?
Kindly guide me.
Thanks

Guys are Italian and I write a little bad English: I am in a serious fix, my V6888 is corrupted.
I followed the guide you provided, only that when I came out the inscription that is missing the BOOTIMG I have posted the file "uboot_bd86_77_emmc_v6888.bin" inside the folder of ROMS and I gave the OK. I have installed everything except that now the phone stops on initial Android logo and does not go ahead, it seems to go right. What can I do to recover? I tried to redo the flash without check of BOOTIMG, installed everything again but the phone does the same defect. How do I save it? Please help!!! Thank you all and have a nice day!!!

I solved it by installing Pandawull ROM first and then reinstalling this without BOOTIMG. Doing this everything was fine, now the phone works fine! Thanks all the same!!: Vittoria:

It deosnt allow me to go forward. I tried the volume down and power button and it just comes up with the factory page where you test the hardware and reboot.(Blue screen). Doesnt give me download OR recover options. Usually yellow/green.
Even the mtk 6577 drivers are difficult to load on WIndows XP sp3. (although it says downloaded successfully). When connecting this softbricked phone, nothing happens!
Any ideas and help please?
Thanks in advance

Hey Guys, finally cracked it. Had to do it in a WIndows 7 machine. Wa a bit of struggle getting all the drivers. Fially using the SP tools as suggested by Diomorgan, managed to flash the ROM and make the phone alive again.
Thank you very much Dimorgan for th time and patience in helping me/us. Really appreciated.
One question, which stock rom is this? Can I upgrade with another ROM? ANy tutorials?
Can I also upgrade to Jellybean? 4.1 or 4.2
Any suggestions ?
Thanks again.

ActuallyI don't know is coincity will port JB to the phone,but the hardware is pretty capable!

Here we go.
Download all the above files.
1) Root your device with Root Genius (at time's it might take several attempts so do not give up)
2) as soon as you root, go to the playstore and install super su by chainfire. let super su take over the kingroot because i personaly feel Super Su give's the full root.
3) one's you have super user, open it and make sure its functioning.
4) now install MKT Droid tool and backup your NVRAM for which you got to install Vcom drivers to recognise the device. best OS is Win7 32bit to get things straight. incase if the device is not recognised, reboot your PC and try again.
5) One's MKT Tool recognises the device, install adbd on the mobile. it's a paid version. (you know how to get it)
6) open adbd it's in chinese. tik all the boxes in adbd and close.
7) now click on root button at the bottom of MKT Droid tools. it's initially in yellow color. untill it becomes green, you cannot backup NVRAM (this is your esf and imei which you are going to loose after flashing kitkat rom from different mobile brand)
8)after you succeed backup up the NVRam, you did the toughest job of all time.
9)now flash G750-T00 Rom with flash tools which you are going to find in the last link i've provided. search net how to flash with flash tool.
10) after flashing the base, you will loose the network. first thing you got to do is root your mobile with root genius. then install playstore. google for playstore apk. install playstore, sign in with your gmail id and install adbd again. (if you do not want to install play store you know the black way to do it.) one's you install the adbd, tik the boxes and go to MTK Droid tools to restore the NVRAM. which will bring back your network connections.
11) one's you get the network, flash the 251 base as per the last link provided. this one comes with many goodies like twrp, 3minit battery mode etc. one's you flash this base, go to backup and reset and factory reset your phone to gain access to GPRS. it will fix by itself.
12)reboot into twrp and flash gapps.
Enjoy the Rom. EMUI 3.0 is smooth and changing lockscreen wallpapers will blow your mind. over all the mobile drastically changes from mid-range experience to flasgship experience

there after you can flash any custom roms available on chinese site for T20

Hi @jacktackle, good day!
First of all, excuse me for asking noob questions. I'm new here and I really have limited knowledge about smartphones.
I just wanna ask if this would work on my phone? Will my phone be completely rooted? Because I tried several rooting softwares, and everytime I restart my phone I always lose my root access.
Again, sorry for my noob questions. I would really appreciate your help!

11) one's you get the network, flash the 251 base as per the last link provided. this one comes with many goodies like twrp, 3minit battery mode etc. one's you flash this base, go to backup and reset and factory reset your phone to gain access to GPRS. it will fix by itself.
12)reboot into twrp and flash gapps.
Enjoy the Rom. EMUI 3.0 is smooth and changing lockscreen wallpapers will blow your mind. over all the mobile drastically changes from mid-range experience to flasgship experience

[HELP] Redmi 9 Hard Bricked

Hello i've flashed a custom ROM for my Redmi 9 this morning but it failed.
Now my phone doing a big f* bootloop, the recovery (TWRP) is dead and the fastboot too.
I've found a tool named SP Tool to repair the phone but the problem is when i plug my phone to my computer the phone is charging (logic) and instead showing the animation of the battery it bootloop until it runs out of battery.
So someone can help me please
Thanks
Edit: Oh i forgot, now i've realised than when i flashed the rom i've wiped the entire phone (internal storage too)
My bad...

Is your device Merlin or Lancelot? If you're not sure, what processor do you have, Qualcomm or MTK?
If it is Qualcomm, try test-point method to access EDL mode, then use Mi Flash Tool to flash MIUI on your device. Read this FAQ to learn more.
If it is MTK, then follow this guide and download the tools used in the video from here. You can find your device ROM (Lancelot) here.
Just make sure you're flashing global version if your device is global or chinese if your device is chinese.
If you're not sure what you're doing, I highly recommend sending it to a professional.
Goodluck.

Hi, my phone has the codename Lancelot with a MTK Helio G80.
I will try, thanks

Both SIM slots have no IMEI? I assume you wiped all and didn't backup?
You'll need Modem Meta and ENG ROM to fix that, you can get the ROM and the specific way to fix it from here.
If you're lost you'll find all the answers in the thread, but don't be afraid to ask there just don't ask an already asked question.
Here is a brief guide made by the same person to provide the ROM.
Goodluck.

I followed the guide in the video. But failing in the LibUSB Step. Mediathek device is not showing up. My Redmi 9 is hard bricked, just seeing a "redmi logo" bootloop. No matter if I try to boot normally, recovery or fastboot. Any Idea?

This tool installs the driver required to unbrick your device, if you can find your device specific driver to install on your PC then you can skip using this tool and install the driver manually.
If you can't find the driver, then try using a different cable when connecting the phone to the PC. Or a different port in the PC (Like the legacy 2.0 USB port in the motherboard).
The tool should first detect any device connected to install the driver it doesn't work the other way. If it still doesn't work then your only option is to find the driver manually. Or maybe you can find an updated version of the same tool or a similar tool.

Thanks for your help. Actually I got it working with a lot of try and error... not even sure which drivers worked at the end. Also I had to switch to a win 7 computer. On win 11 drivers just didnt work. But with MTK Bypass tool + SP flash Tool, I was able to flash the stock image and recover my briked phone!

Glad it worked out in the end mate.
Might be a random guess but it could be because signature protection was enabled on the win 11 PC.
Don't brick your phone again!

Hey, i can help you by sending videos that helped me to fix my problem but i've lost them.
Do you have a bootloader locked or unlocked? (here to know how)
If it's the 1st option, relax, you can modify easily
If it's the 2nd a little bit less
NB: i don't use really use this phone, just for developpment and some things than it can break the OS because it had some problems with apps and updates.
Have a great day and i hope than you have found a solution before my answer.

Is it in EDL mode?

No but I am gonna try it Tomorrow

Someone help me please? Two days ago i bricked my redmi 9 eea after update via ota. He just died, no infinite loop or charge. After a tutorial from here was able to revive him with sp flash, phyton and other stuffs. Everyting went OK and my phone is alive again. Whatever now I've getting issues that weren't there before hard brick. My redmi doesnt recognize my Sim card. I enter my pin security and then don't get any sim card signal. Also can't log on play store with my Google account, i get this message "there was a problem communicating with Google servers, try again later." Tried to wipe Google play services data, also from play store, formated redmi from recovery but the problems remains. Maybe i need to reinstall rom again, im pretty sure it was the right rom i flashed because i download it from miui official website. Unfortunately after reviving my redmi with sp flash, my bootloader got locked again. Sense i cant log with Google account because phone doesn't recognize my chip to activate data sim card, i cant either unlock with mi unlock. Is there any solution for this? Thanks.
Perhaps flashing phone with another rom the problem gets fixed. I can still flash my phone with sp flash even with bootloader blocked right? My redmi comes with a European rom. To revive him i used rom last update, maybe should try a previous version?
