hey, please try to help me. I want your valuable comments and advises. as soon as possible
i have a rooted HTC EXPLORER with me. And mistakenly I deleted 'com.htc' and now wen i turn on there is a screen where is shows htc in green letters only. i cn enter to android menu. and I tried factory reset. But it didnt work. Help me guys.. please
URGENT :crying:
Are you using Stock ROM? The rooting tutorial specifically says not to factory reset.
Don't worry, you're phone is still useable. Just flash a custom ROM, you can find loads of them in the Android Development section.
Hi guys, I bought the above phone off Amazon. I found out this very strange device also had a root-enabled kernel out of the box, but my question is about recovery. I want to install CWM as a first choice, if not that, TWRP, but a Google search only tuns up loose references to MTK6589 which is presumably the SoC, but nothing for my specific model. Currently when I reboot to recovery with any root app it shows 'no command' (maybe there is no recovery installed to the recovery partition?) and when entering bootloader mode the device displays what is seen in the attached photo.
I would appreciate any help on getting a working recovery set up on this device.
Thanks!

Hi, I also have one of these phones and have been looking at recovery options with little success.
However I have found a set of instructions in the XDA University about porting CWM. (unfortunalty I can't post a link due to being a Noob, but if you Google 'porting cwm' it should be the top result).
I am going to be attempting to do this once I have got my PC set up dual boot for Linux.
Will post back with news on how it's going. Would appreciate any progress you have made about a recovery option.
Regards
Mad.
first, make a backup of your device using mtk droid tools.
if phone isn`t rooted yet, use this tutorial:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2332783
for the recovery, you need to unpack your recovery.img, take the kernel zImage and put it in the cwm-recovery. for mt6589 phones, this one should work: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2357875
you can unpack/repack your boot.img with this tools:

after obtaining new recovery.img, flash it through SP flash tool or mobileuncle tools.
Recovery Quirk
Chrizzly, thanks for the pointers, will be checking out the tools tonight.
Found a quirk though, may just be my phone.
I booted into recovery last night and as expected the "no commands" came up, but then I took the back off the phone and a recovery menu appeared. Had options in there like reboot, delete cache, delete delvik cache....
I'm assuming this is the stock recovery.
I tested it again this morning and booting into recovery and then taking the back off the phone made the menu appear!!
Any one else care to test and see if it's a stock thing or just a quirk of my phone.
replied before, my post disappeared.. this isn`t related to your device , this is recovery-typical. it is showing the android first, without a menu. you need to press hardware buttons, to get into the menu( this is device-specific, you need to try that, also buttons on the touch screen, if there are some) this will usually bring you in recovery MENU. think you accidently pressed one of these buttons while opening the device.

Re: Stock recovery. Thought it was a button press that got me in first time but I tried it several times and no button worked just pulling the back off. Little puzzled about that but it's something I can live with!!

Re: Files. Thanks for the files, going to try them out as soon as I can!!
Done
I have got CWM working on my i9389 now, there was a few quirks in getting it going.
The method I used was as posted in the MTK Droid Root & Tools thread by rua1.
TIPS
Leave the battery out when doing read back or flash in Flash Tools.
Not mentioned in the instruction is the MTK vcom drivers which you will need and can be found in the Root tutorial posted by Chrizzly a bit further up.
Make sure you read the instructions by rua1 closely and use the images posted as it's not always straight forward.
Last tip pay attention to where MTK tools puts the files it creates, had me stumped for a bit!! I've never been very good at following instructions!!

I managed to boot loop mine while messing with a ROM I made (it's not finished yet) but managed to recover by re-flashing using the Flash Tools a back up I had taken just after installing CWM.
Do you have a back up you can flash?
I have just checked mine and even zipped it's still 800MB so I can't email it to you...
...sure if I looked about I could find somewhere to upload it to for you. PM me if you need this!!

A27 root
u can use root master to root ur A27. but I still didn't find any cwm recovery. plz if anyone know abt it post a way or link here
Karbonn A27
After struggling for months, I was finally able to root my Karbonn A27 using Root Master. Soon after rooting, I couldn't resist the urge to install a custom rom.The stock rom was giving me a lot of issues, one of the major problem being the heating issue.
So as a next step, I tried to flash the recovery. I took a chance and flashed the CWMrecovery which was not meant for my device. (The CWM I used was actually meant for Karbonn A21)
As a result of that, I got my phone bricked. (Soft bricked caught on bootloop) Luckily, I am able to put the phone on Fastboot mode though.
To unbrick my phone, I understand that I need to find the stock rom for my device. So that I can re-flash all the images in Fastboot mode. The problem is I am not to find the Stock Rom on the internet. Please let me know if there is any other alternate way to get out of jail.
Notable things:
1) One interested thing, that I would like to share about my phone is that, while booting if I press the "power and up arrow" button together it takes me to weird screen showing hardware information. It does nothing after that, I will have to remove and reinsert the battery to make it boot again.
2) Another thing, after restarting the phone by pressing the power button later if I press the "UP and DOWN" arrow key together. It takes me to another screen which reads "Fastboot" mode displaying options for recovery and factory reset.
karbonn a27 root

gpoup for karbonn a27 retina
hello everyone , in vietnam , there is a group for this phone , plz log in facebook and then search " Q-Smart Miracle Mach "
Hello all, It's been awhile since I've been on.... A big while But things have changed a lot around and looks great, But on with my question. I have a M horse N9000W MTK6572, And recently tried a sys file restore using titanium backup and the process froze with a error stating that me deviceID had changed, Then the phone proceeded to reboot, But upon booting up it just stays on the android logo. Before this problem I was able to go into factory recovery as I only had the phone rooted but no custom recovery or firmware, And now no recovery using any button combo. I have asked a few on ebay if there jig or jtag would help but they all say not on the china clone as of yet. So is my phone a cool digital android desktop picture, Or is there a method someone knows
My pc nor mac recognize the device anymore either. Thanks in advance for any info or help
Hi,
I have searched and do not find information that is helpful.
With no recovery and no recognition from the computer, I'm afraid this is a hard brick.
Sorry, I know it is not what you wanted to hear. - support for almost any clone device is scarce at best.
Hello everyone this is my first post on this forum.Greetings to everyone!

Hi,
Thank you for using XDA assist
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 the expert's help
Good luck.
