[Q] Huawei U8510 stuck at first boot - Bricked?

Help.
I completely screwed up but do not know where.
Had problems rooting but eventually made it with 'Automatic-Root-Enabler--U8510--v1.1' which worked first time.
Then used rom manager to install HuaweiU8510.zip which did not work so tried U8500_Huaweid.zip.
cache and Delvic cleared, rebooted and red huawei came on screen and there it stayed.
Removed battery, boot into recovery went into firmware update(image in dload but cant remember name) starts step 1 unpacking get yellow triangle with ! and says update failed. also tried again with zip files on sd card but back to red Huawei
Any one got any ideas please as I can get to the sd card but not to the internal memory and not adb/fastboot. So no way of getting a new recovery image into dload

Here in the netherlands there are no huawei phones too bad because on the wmc they announced some pretty good phones ..
But on topic...
Does your phone still start normal?
If not try flashing it back to stock firmware..
Maybe it's a problem with the custom rom...

Thanks
1. no
2. trying once I get original rom
3. Funny it is every one I tried
Keith

I do own a galaxy s...
Once i had a similar problem...
It was caused by the filesystem
Samsung uses the rfs system but custom roms prefer ext4 which is better...
When your filesystem isn't compatible with your custom rom than you will have a startup problem so try to figure out if you have to change the filesystem.
can't post links from other sites cause i am a newby to xda forums this is really annoying

Coby Kyros MID8127

Hi guys,
I just bought a new Coby Kyros MID8127 tablet (A8, Android 2.3) for my friend.
Now, I want to flash a custom ROM with JB on it, but I just did not find any ROM, CWM or tutorial for that here at XDA (or elsewhere).
Is it possible, that there is no custom ROM for that tablet to have?
Thank you in advance.
Greetings,
sYCO

I have the same tablet and I bought a custom ROM from the people at KTZ, however, I could not install this ROM successfully, in order to install it I had to take the tablet to factory reset state and then delete a bunch of system applications to make room for the new ROM because the ROM does not allow you to install it from a formatted system partition (it's more like an upgrade). But when I finally installed the ROM it wuold not boot a second time; what that means is that, after installation the ROM boots normally but if I reboot it gets caught in a loop where I just see a blue disk spinning and it doesn't do anything else and the only way to get it out of that loop is to connect the USB cable and boot to recovery via adb and restore the backup that i did before flashing the new ROM. I tried to get help from the guy who makes these ROMs but he wasn't very helpful. I followed all his instructions and always got the same result.
I managed to install manually most of the components of this ROM through a long process of trial and error and left out the components that make the tablet misbehave and now I have a hybrid on my tablet which works pretty well with the exception of the wifi. The wifi works but at times is painfully slow.
I tried other ROMs from Android Tablet forums (check here). There is an ICS Rom there (or more than one, I don't remember) and also a JB ROM for the 8127 but I could not make them work on my tablet. The ICS ROM installed fine and runs very fast but it keeps freezing so I uninstalled. The Jelly Bean did not install properly and it was very hard to get the tablet to a working state after it bricked.
That was a while ago and I haven't checked lately if there is something else out there.

Hey Guys,
Just found this link. Maybe you can try it out and tell me if it works for you.

Sorry, I gave that tablet back and cannot test it anymore. I rather recommend to buy an Ainol Novo 7 Crystal. It is cheaper, better and ****ing fast with a nice custom ROM support like CM 10, CM 10.1, Paranoid 3.0, Crystal-Fuse, ...
Btw, KTZ sucks totally.

I started to do some work on that tabled, but stuck with kernel touchscreen configuration. See here.
Touch chip is Goodix GT911, screen size is 800x1280 px. I managed to get touch working but partialls. First aprox 1.2 inches of top of screen are not responsive to to touches. After that 1.5" touch works normally.
I'm pretty sure I'm sending wrong configuration data array to chip and thats why its not working as it should, but have no time at the moment to toy with it. If anyone experienced with Goodix chips, pm me with ideas...

Update: I started to toy with stock kernel and cm10.2 (my first CM ever, was working with AOSP based SoC manufacturers sources). Problem is that device uses separate partition for internal sdcard, so have to disable emulated storage.
Things done:
- recovery
- android is built against precompiled stock kernel
Status:
- after bootanim and starting apps screen android reboots and starts back with bootanim. This was one day tryout, will debug it later today. Thanx to TeamNostalgia's preparation for cm10.2 on Amlogic MX. I used their framework and device stuff, upgraded with latest amlogic version of sources. Because of SLA I have with Amlogic, I cannot put it online.

any news abouth root final this tablet?
thx for info

It is. I'm not CM guy really, but its possible. If anyone interested, TeamNostalgia's github does have decent tree for Amlogic MXS tablets. I did some CM10.2 work for that tablet, but ended up with bootloop and reboot eventually. Didn't had time do debug it.

Here 4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=504411&view=findpost&p=29560411 is a customized firmware from Prestigio PMP3970B to work on Prestigio PMP5670C. But it does not run on PMP5670C, stands on the splash screen. Maybe someone will take to complete the firmware, it is better factory firmware for the tablet PMP5670C

I fixed U-Boot (wrote my own to support device tree kernel - 3.10.10) and fixed touch screen. I did not upload this fw, started to work yesterday on amlogic's 4.4 sources (they support both mx and m8 chipsets) (no, I cant share, I have SLA with them), I have boot, only left few things to test and then I'll upload 4.4.2.

Thank you for keep working! Waiting for rom)

Here's beta version of rom: http://www.stane1983.com/prestigio_pmp5670c/
Read install instructions, needs to be installed twice, uboot still not perfect. Waiting for feedback
Btw, it's 4.2.2 rom, KitKat doesn't work good (unstable) on MXS chip.

Installed today morning. Seems all good! Thank you very much

Rename uImage_recovery to recovery.img (when installing back stock firmware).

Now I successfully installed the 1.0.05 but there is a quite big issue: I can not able to install anything from Play, the Download Manager is acutally (lots of system apps too) 0.0kb

I'm really sorry for inconveniences. With 1.0.05 files on sdcard, delete factory_update_param.aml file and boot into recovery (as if you want to install firmware). From menu using vol +/- and power for select choose factory reset (data partition is not formatted using old partition layout, thats why you have 0kb). After that you also can reflash firmware if you want (just select zip from sdcard).

My daughter get this tablet from her grandfather on 03.05.2014 ( I guess she is lucky about that date ), and it was so slow and ugly and everything.
I installed your bety rom and everything is perfect. BUt after first reboot i get setup wizard again, but the first time after Install I only get FC ( just like I should ) but it didnt throw me back to setup wizard again.
Can I expect wizard setup every time I reboot or?
And Yes, thank you a lot for this awesome and fast work. The tablet is now so much more usable.
HVALA TI STANE MNOGO => THANK YOU STANE A LOT

@stane1983 I have the same problem as @babicsbalu. My pmp5670c is also stuck at black screen after rebooting and installing new stock firmware. I did both, renaming from uImage_recovery to recovery.img and deleting factory_update_param.aml and every time with the same result.
Please help me!
Or you can PM me (I'm from Croatia)
Hvala ti!

Well I also have prestigio tablet pmp5670C_BK_DUO and within a week it got bricked somehow. I guess that broken charging pin on cable had something to do with it - probably did a short circuit or something and boot loader got corrupt. Tabled was responding to connection of new charging cable, but only backlight turned on. There was no logo or anything.
I browsed several pages and nothing worked. I tried with official upgrade from SD card but it didn't work. It started to upgrade, android-upgrade logo came up, but after reboot nothing happened. Damaged bootloader was unable to start the tablet.
After a day or so I finally found a way how to unbrick it! Yeah.... So in attached file there is the detailed procedure, which I found on some Russian page.
Good luck!

Recovery.rar no longer available

I had a similar problem here and this method seems promising, but the recovery file indicated on the PDF is no longer available. Would you still have it lying around somewhere?
Thank you!!

PMP5670c Duo
I got this tablet 2 month ago, i have found on w w w 4pda ru 4 custom rooms for this tablet and i used google chrome to translate in english to understand what i have to do, i have instaled every one rom but i got a problem, with all custom rom the internal storage disapear. I instaled stock version now and the internal storage is there ready to be used. Custom roms are better than stock rom but it's annoyng me the missing internal storage. Anyone with this problem or anyone know how to fix it?
Edit: I instaled stock rom then i instaled again Firmware v.1.0.10 from MrCheba Repack and now i have internal storage working maybe reinstall the stock rom fix it.

[Q]Ematic Eglide Prism rom troubles

I have an Ematic Eglide Prism. The tablet originally came with Android 4.0, but due to a mistake my friend made the tablet quit working (which is why I now own it). I managed to fix it by using LiveSuite to flash a stock image (Cyclone Astro+ 4.2) and it works, aside from the tablet not rotating automatically. So I decided to try to install an AOKP and CM10 rom I found for A10 processors onto it. However this did not work, and both roms get stuck at the boot animation with the same errors. (I'll post them after my next attempt to fix the issue) The errors say something along the lines of the dalvik-cache missing. So I tried to create it only to find that /data was "read-only". Using the mount command via adb shell revealed that data wasn't even mounted, on either rom. I've been trying everything I could think of to get these roms to work, but the only one that seems to work is the stock Cyclone Astro+ rom that is flashed via LiveSuite.
Anyone have any ideas?

[Q] MTK rom, installation aborted

The Afterlife6.0 was said to be compatible with my Nitro 401D which has the aame MTK no.
However, whenever I try to flash it (using cwm) it says installation aborted. It doesnt say any status about it eg Status 6 or Status 7 but i still used the fix for one which is trying to change the name in the updater script to fit the name of my phone but when I looked, it doesnt have that particular line for checking the name. And the other one was changing the directory of the lines in it but I didnt want to change it because i wasnt so sure about the directories myself.
Ive tried downloading from another source, still didnt work. Now Im wondering maybe its my phone so Ive been considering using SP flash to force it in(? Im still not quite sure what it does tho) and also change my custom recovery (currently cwm) to twrp or ctr. Maybe my phone cant flash anything at all so ive been also considering trying to flash a small file or like a test rom, are there any of those?
What should I do next? Im scared of forcing it in causr it says that if the phone has the wrong preloader my phone can never be recovered..

From everything I have done on trying to root this phone, I guess MTKdroid tools installed CWM in the process. It is rooted now tho, checked with rootchecker basic. I havent tried any other roms since Afterlife 6.0 is the only one i found.

UPDATE:
Apparently, the CWM wasn't properly installed, my bad :crying:
I tried to install another ROM like Lollifox (will try MIUI later, still downloading) but I don't think I ported it successfully tho because it just showed installation aborted, no Status whatsoever.
I have now flashed Afterlife6.0. However, its now stuck at boot but a while ago it was on boot loop but after wiping caches and doing a hard reset, its now on boot forever. By boot I mean it just shows the Sony logo (supposedly the Arc Mobile logo before I flashed the rom) then the logo disappears and then its just a black screen (a black screen as in its still turned on and not a black screen as you would see when a phone is off).
I'll try to flash my stock rom and root it again so that I could flash other roms for now while waiting for your reply.

try stock rom on the official site. than try to update cwm and try rooting again.

I already fixed it by flashing the stock tho so no worries I guess.
I successfully ported Lollifox but I encountered a problem where I couldn't save anything because my phone doesn't recognize my SD card. It can be seen in the settings/storage though but what the rom can't do is recognize that the "SD card" is internal not external. Its sort of hard to explain, I have 2 storages: Internal memory and Phone storage. The internal memory is the default place where apps go while the Phone storage acts like the SD card of this phone but its internal as well ( at least that's how it acts on the stock ROM). I tried unmounting it (apparently I have that option on Lollifox but its internal so I don't know how that's possible) and remounting it but no dice. Also, since it doesn't recognize the SD card, it kind of explains why there's no USB mass storage option when I connect it.
I tried to port the MIUI and did the 2 ways of porting it told in the site where the rom came from but whenever I flash it, it boots up and gets stuck at the logo of MIUI.
I'm leaning away from Afterlife 6.0 now cause I can't really see it would be a better ROM (and you got to give it that the themes of MIUI and Lollifox are pretty AF) but I think its more suitable (still can't flash it tho) . Can anyone give thoughts on the best rom for this or a fix for these problems?

rexel325 said:
sometimes you need to format the phone memory at the beginning for one time after you install new ROM. Try that and restart the phone. One time i did this like this problem. Sorry for my english.

Solved
I think I already solved my own problem though. I just had to do a few tweaks and do a little bit of trial and error myself. However, I still couldn't flash Afterlife (also tried porting it myself and Im suppose to do a logcat or something but I lack free time) but I still have a rom flashed don't worry. Kind of feel sorry it feels like a waste of a thread.
Now Im asking for this thread to be closed(or atleast I think thats how it works cause I dont seem to have that option myself)
Thank you
