DISCLAIMER: The intended way to update your droid is through OTA updates or Samsung Kies. Flashing through Odin may involve a certain amount of risk. You are proceeding at your own risk. I am not/will not be responsible for any harm to your device!
1. Install Samsung Kies http://www.samsung.com/kies on your computer and connect your droid with a data cable to your computer after running Kies to install your device drivers. After successful installation of your drivers, disconnect your droid from the computer.
2. Download Odin 3.07 from http://samsung-updates.com/
3. Extract the downloaded file using unzip software. You can use 7zip for the purpose which is a free and open source software. Download 7zip here http://www.7-zip.org/
4. Download stock ROM/firmware for GT-ST5282 from http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-S5282. Other Samsung devices may download stock ROM/firmware for their respective devices from here http://samsung-updates.com/. Extract the downloaded ROM using 7zip (mentioned above).

​7. Now switch off your droid and enter into Download Mode. Enter into Download Mode by pressing VOLUME DOWN button, HOME KEY and POWER BUTTON simultaneously. And then, press VOLUME UP button in Warning Page to enter the Download Mode.
​The picture given above is for a generic Samsung droid due to pictures of GT-S5282 unavailable...
But overall the screens will be the same in GT-S5282 with the screens shown above.:fingers-crossed:
8. Connect your droid (in Download mode) to your computer via Data Cable. Check whether a communication port [ID:COM] box is highlighted in light blue. If yes, your droid is now successfully connected with the computer and ready to flash the stock ROM into the device.
​9. Start flashing the stock ROM into your droid by clicking the Start Button in Odin. After sometime a BLUE coloured "RESET!" sign will appear on the upper-left box of Odin. Do not disconnect your droid yet!
​10. A few minutes later, a green coloured "PASS!" sign will appear on the upper-left box of Odin if the stock ROM has been successfully flashed into your droid.
​11. Disconnect your droid from your computer. You have now successfully flashed stock ROM into your droid...!!!:victory:
12. Once your droid boots up, go to Settings>System>About device>Kernel version and check your firmware version.
If I have helped you to flash stock ROM on your GT-S5282, please press the THANKS button...:good:

If you don’t get the same then you should try another USB port (try USB port located in back in your desktop PC). If that too don’t work then you should then reinstall the driver.

[GUIDE] Rooting Orange Pasadena Branded ALCATEL OT-918 (v2.3.6)

The guide is for the Alcatel OT-918 (No D, N, MIX), single sim, Orange Pasadena, from Romania with Gingerbread 2.3.6, it might work on other versions to, but I can't guarantee that.
Care should be taken, while the Orange Pasadena is a cheap phone, modifying your software might turn your device in an unusable brick.
Unfortunately the Android version of this phone can't be rooted with superoneclick or other simpler methods.
First of all You need the following tools from the attached file:
USB Drivers
SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1224.00
AlcatelScatterRetriever01 - optional
Universal recovery for Alcatel OT918 (2.3.5 and 2.3.6)
Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/74256292/Pasadena/Orange_Pasadena_OT918_root.zip
1. Turn off the phone, and connect it to the computer (Windows XP/7) with an USB cable, and install the attached drivers
2. Create a scatter file with AlcatelScatterRetriever01,

}
(alternatively you can skip this step and use the scatter file from the OT-918_Orange_Pasadena_Branded folder)
3. Run Flash tool and open the scatter file
4. Check only the recovery file from the OT-918_Orange_Pasadena_Branded folder
Double check that all other checkboxes must be unchecked!
5. Click on download
6. Connect the turned off phone to the computer, the progress bar should change its color and after a short while a small window with a green circle and ok should appear.
If it's not working remove USB cable, the battery, and reconnect the battery and then the USB cable and try again.
7. Remove the battery and the SD-card
8. Copy Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip to the SD-card
9. Replace the SD-card and the battery
10. Start the phone with the Volume UP and Power combo (release first the power button)
11. You should be in the OT-918N recovery, and should install the file Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip from the SD-card
12. Restart and enjoy your root-ed phone.
For UNROOT make a full wipe from recovery.
Repair information:
If you got an Orange Pasadena which would not boot or is in a bootloop, at step 4 select all the files from OT-918_Orange_Pasadena_Branded folder and go on with the guide.
At step 8 copy to the SD-card deepROM 2.3.6. from http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=323769&st=2320#entry16968462 ,
the file from http://disk.yandex.com/public/?hash=%2BFgTiMPQgqQjcFeH30tIoZnLBEVANGQz3%2BeBBWub5m0%3D ,
which is the only functional custom rom as far as I know for this model of the phone.
If someone needs a functional (but incomplete) stock image feel free to p.m. me.
Still searching for a full stock image, which will be posted here.

Drivers
Hello,
At step "1: Turn off the phone, and connect it to the computer (Windows XP/7) with an USB cable, and install the attached drivers"
Witch one of the drivers should I install? I've tried everything, but the phone it is not recognized by the XP OS, and therefore the ASR.exe cannot generate the scattering file.
Please help, with more detailed procedure regarding the drivers.
Thank you,
Stro
It works, thank you!
Is there anyway to install another, more stable, Rom.
Maybe an original OT-918 ROM?
Thanks.

also I've tried to follow this tutorial to add the IMEI back ('cause now is null), but without any luck (I don't have any "write imei" button). can someone help me out please?

[Q] is this how i root mGalaxy Tab 2 P3110 - 16gb wifi only

instruction source - http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/articles/4...70-p3110-root-android412-xxdma2-jellybean.htm
I bought my gtab2 few days back. It runs jellybean 4.1.2 Indian version, after going through different outdated rooting guides i thought it would be better if i ask this here. I am about to root my gtab2 following the ibntimes guide . Please tell me if i should do something different or if there's a better way to root. The guide looks fairly simple and straightforward though.

[Note: If the 'Added' message does not come then try another USB port. Try the port located at the back side of the computer. In case that does not work too then reinstall USB driver.]
6) In Odin, click the PDA button and select 'CF-Auto-Root-espressowifi-espressowifixx-gtp3110.tar.md5' file

i have not tried this method but this is what i could come across while searching in xda forums....
you may also register yourself at XDA and search more or check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/unbrick-vibe-k5-plus-qfil-qpst-method-t3467830
IMPORTANT : First of all you should always have all the drivers installed on your PC.
READ EVERYTHING CAREFULLY AND MAKE SURE YOU HAVE FOLLOWED THE STEPS CAREFULLY AND THEN POST QUERIES.[/COLOR]
The following drivers are needed for this task:
1. Lenovo USB Drivers.
2. QDLoader QFIL Drivers
Search for them on google and you will find them very easily. Most of the time they are there in the stock rom zip folder under a folder named Drivers.
Install all of them.
1. Download the Stock ROM you need for your phone from here:
DOWNLOAD STOCK FIRMWARE (Thanks to Shreps)
2. Extract the above zip to a folder. You will get three folders: Drivers, Images and Tools.
3. From the Drivers folder, Install all drivers.
4. From the Tools folder, install the QPST Tool. In your Start Menu it will come as QFIL. Don't worry about that.
5. Power Off your device.
6. Open QFIL TOOL.

}
7. Now On top you will see two options: 1. Flat Build 2. Meta Build
Select FLAT BUILD
8. In "PROGRAMMER PATH" click Browse and go to the folder named Images and select the one file it displays (something like prog_emmc....mbn).
9. Now click "Load XML" and select "rawprogram0.xml" file and then another dialog box will open. Here select "patch0.xml".
PC WORK IS DONE. DO NOT CLICK DOWNLOAD.
Your device should be switched off.
NOTE CAREFULLY: Hold "VOLUME UP + VOLUME DOWN" key (Do not press POWER button). and connect the USB Cable from PC to the phone.
Your phone should now display RED LED LIGHT and the QFIL Tool should now change from NO PORT to QUALCOMM.....Something like that.
You are now ready. Click on Download button on QFIL TOOL and then wait for atleast 15 minutes.
After the dialog at bottom shows "DOWNLOAD SUCCESSFUL" in blue color, UNPLUG your device. Wait for a few seconds or a minute and then POWER ON your device.
First boot takes about 8-10 minutes.
