Good day xda users!
I have a question on a phone i have bought.I put a text file with the name of link to the phone,sorry for this dont have 10 posts
First of all,this is not a Lenovo Phone,its a copy of some sort...but I really like the design,so I bought it.
And the specifications are not true,its a MTK6572,not HD ready, resolution is 854x480 240ppi.
I tried to flash a rom, I guess the preoloader messed up,and now its a brick,but! I it connects to usb and I can flash rom's all the time
Well the question is:maybe some one of you have its stock rom,or you may tell me a different rom that maybe could work on this phone.
That's it, thanks for trying to help me with this problem!

Maybe you can remove the battery so we can see about which phone are we talking about. The easiest thing would be to find an original recovery image... but we need to know the exact model

the information from the back of the phone is limited i guess...its just IMEI number, CMIIT ID and Serial number,and some numbers i don't know what they mean 1: 02-8749-111811 2: 8TY39NP192CC873 thats it...
MTK Droid tools identified my phone model as "Custom Version" and in the Android System information showed the same thing...

Hi There,
Please forgive me I am a complete novice when it comes to Android phone.
I have a chinese Dual sim phone that I have routed with superoneclick. I have put clockworks recovery on it with rom manager as I was trying to create a copy of the ROM. I also installed Droid X Recovery Bootstrap, however in droid x I pressed the fix permission option and the phone started changing permissions everywhere and now my phone wont start. It keeps booting up in a loop and I cannot get to the recovery to wipe the memory and start again
What SOC does the device use?
If its Allwinner based, you could boot from mmc or reflash with livesuit.
21ss, thank you for the reply.
Sorry my friend, I have no idea what you mean by What SOC does the device use?
You say that you can boot from the mmc slot, please tell how and with what software.
Never heard of livesuit.
I have attached a word document in rar of the ebay item that I purchest.
Any help that you can give me would be very much appreciated.
At the moment I have a paper weight.
Regards chunky2.

Hey guys the good thing about this phone is that you cant brick it, it cant be hard bricked easily... but I suggest you go to this discussion and find possible solutions, I had same issue and even tho I never managed to fully sort the issue, its because of my laziness... I could if I wanted, I managed to get it to a position I can use it and I have been using it like so for months now... here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1618775&page=3
Hi, just recently some student tablets started to drop in my shop with problems, the latest one was an Indipad 10" made by LGS Caribbean, that is ALL the info I know about it since there are no labels anywhere in the tablet or the box, my guess is a generic Chinese re-branded tablet and it looks like is running ICS 4.0.1 but can't be sure since is locked with a number password. The client brought the tablet in cause her child was playing with it and activated the password screen lock and of course the child doesn't remember what he typed in. :silly:
I'm either looking to unlock the tablet, factory reset it or re-flash stock rom.
I already tried using the volume +/-/power combo for the recovery but it takes me to the android boot error screen, so I guess it has no recovery installed or it was deleted on purpose by the company. Also tried entering a lot of failed passcodes to see if it brings the account recovery option, but is a no go.
Did a Google search to see if I could also find a rom to flash on it but since I'm limited on the info about it nothing has come up.
Many thanks for any help.
No one?
Same thing right here. But i can tell you it is running android 4.0.4, and the build number is: crane_m1003h6-eng 4.0.4 IMM76D 20120921. Of course as you may know the 20120921 is the date so my guess is that it depends on how many updates those tablets have received already. Anyway, the recovery works, cus i have one in here working and you can access recovery from inside android(when you go to factory reset it gives you an option to do so, i did and it works perfect). But again just like you said, It wont work using hardware buttons. I was trying to find someone who can contact me from LGS Carribean but no luck at all. Just nothing, i have a working INDIPAD at this moment and thats how im telling you whats the firmware version and build. Like you said on your post, its an issue dealing with generic tablets it really is. I have not found even a similar enough firmware for the tablet to flash, but i can confirn you can use LiveSuitPack to flash them. Only issue is that i havent found a firmware to do so lol.... And ive look just about everywhere. Im going to run USB deview to check what the real hardware is and brand, if im able to find something ill let you know M8
Many thanks, client called in today and told her I'm still looking for a solution. Will wait for what you find.
Did you get this resolved?
Not yet, @home atm, so I'll check tomorrow for an update.
Seems we still on the black
Yes we are, so far i can tell you the processor is an A10, so its an A10 device. It shows as T10a for manufacturer, but so far thats all i can tell you. There might be a way to pull the firmware image from a working Indipad so that we have something to flash on the password protected ones. But for now, we are all waiting on something
Have same issue

My mother-in-law is an English teacher and has several students with the same issue with a password they forgot or they locked the tablet on accident. I haven't been able to factory reset, but when you mentioned T10a, a quick Google search led me to show that EKEN makes T10a tablets.
I hope I'm not leading you down a rabbit trail, but here is their support site with manuals and firmware downloads
Also, searching on XDA apparently there is a way to get CWM on the EKEN T10a and instructions to flash to their latest ROM.
I haven't had a lot of experience with flashing ROMs, but I have flashed my personal devices before. So please let me know if this is possible in any way. I wouldn't want to mess something up. Well, I hope this helps.

Sweet, I'll do a hardware comparison tomorrow with EKEN T10a and see if they are identical devices (at least from the outside), if they match I'll just try that. The device is a brick atm so it doesn't matter trying to experiment with it.

Its funny, but i have that firmware on my computer. Didnt even know why before this post. Now that i see your posts i realize i have flashed those tablet before using Eken firmwares lol.... Thanks a lot guys
What firmware worked for you? Im asking because i downloaded one of them and when i try to turn the tablet on it will keep booting up and wont flash the new firmware.

The one for T10A, version "T10 G-SENSOR6225".
I also had a bit of a problem at first trying to boot it into flash mode, but what I did was go to the device manager in Windows and saw that there where 2 copies of the special driver that the "LiveSuitPack_version_1.09_20111101.exe" installs, one with the checkmark like they said, the other I assumed was the tablet connected, so I deleted the one with checkmark and tried again, this time it went through and started the flashing process which took less than 2 minutes.
Straight after attaching the cable, and whilst still holding down the volume+ button, start pressing the tablet power button repeatedly. This (slightly frenzied) procedure puts the tablet into update mode.

That was the tricky part, to make it boot into flash mode, it has to be fast between connecting and starting to press the buttons, I took like a 1 second delay between the two things.
Also, got to point out I didn't do the CWM or the root mod, just did the firmware flash cause that's what the client wanted.
Its allright buddy, and thanks. Thing is that i was trying to update it as it said on the Ekken website. But the tablet didnt accept the SdCard update at all. I told you it should be done using LiveSuit and yet i was afraid of bricking the device using LiveSuit ha ha.... Thanks a lot guys, case solved. It took all of us to do so but hey, we made it!!!!

Their server is kinda slow but I use Free Download Manager to download big files and speed up the download.
Also remember this was an experiment and it worked by chance, so no guarantee that it will for every indiPad out there, specially if the manufacturer changes the hardware, you should check the hardware info on the tablet just to make sure we are talking about the same tablet model or you could brick your device.
thanks bro, i know about rom experimental, i think same tablet from Puerto Rico, indiPAD, same eken t10a.
Can you tell me please what file worked on your tablet? i see some files

And maybe possible did backup rom from working tablet too. If you can and have one piece we can dump rom.

Was wondering if anyone has pulled stock firmware from this device.. I've emailed rca and they do not provide stock firmware only say hard reset. problem with my recovery is there is a lot of bloatware. Firmware development for this device is nil, and using firmware root checker.apk says its rooted when nothing has rooted it. I'm not exactly sure how to adb pull /system or whatever and I don't wanna flash a bad rom but I do need stock firmware to reflash. Can anyone help me out
wishing i wold stop and let stock be all i needed but i was all lets root it and ....
now this is my best hope i need a stock rom the blasted recovery will install

saddly the only real answer i can give you is contact RCA repair and try to get a replacement in the mail free of charge and just say it suddenly died or firmware update or some crap
2-4 weeks youll get a replacement and return label to mail in defective device
one you log into your gmail everything will redownload
it kinda sucks but so far this is the only solution until we can either extract rom from device which is proving difficult or RCA releases the Rom for Flashing
you said it best when my tablet halfbricked i hard bricked it playingwith spflashtool

How unsupported is it though? I have a bootloop problem after I modified build.prop not even thinking it would cause a problem THIS serious (totally unrecoverable it seems). Was thinking maybe I could try dumping my system.img if I could get it working, mount it and replace/fix permissions on it and reflash... would this be possible? Or am I missing something obvious. I tried ADB on the constant RCA screen, and ofc, recovery only offers the ADB sideload.
The only way to repair or replace firmware is to get the tablet into fastboot mode.

I was finally able to get into recovery by plugging in usb. When it turns on press reset wait and when it turns on 2nd time press reset again. When you see the battery logo press volume up and power. when you see the rca logo let go of power. It should go into recovery. Also make sure you have at least 50% battery. Hope this helps.
Does anyone have the RCT6773W22 original stock ROM? I need to flash my RCA tablet, and I've been trying to put the
RCT6673W23M to no avail.
First of all, let me introduce myself. My name's Rafael and this is my 1st post in this forum. I hope humbly that you can to help me with the problem that I'll show you then:
Well. To begin, the issue is this... I am working with a telephone that's not mine. Somebody sent it to me to fix it, they said me that the phone doesn't download more apps because of "full memory". When I checked it, apparently it had the internal memory partitioned incorrectly, it said it was 16gb total storage with 7 GB available, but when I was installing some apps and went back to see the memory, it showed the Available Storage Memory with a large negative number, and it wasn't letting me install more apps. Some of the features of the phone are the following (according to MTK Droid Tools):
MTK6589 <---------(Actually it's MTK6571)
Model Name: Galaxy S5
Android Version: 4.4.4 <---------(Questionable)
Model Number: SM-G900H
Base Band: G900HXXU1ANCE
Then, to see if I could make some change, I decided to install a custom ROM, apparently for MTK6589 (at that time I didn't suspect about the horrible phone's falsehood). I wanted to see if this ROM brought the partition configured correctly. I tried to carry out the installation by the CWM Recovery from SD card. It turned out that the installation did not exceed 10% and it froze there. Then I removed the battery of the phone and inserted it again. When I try to turn it back on, it stays on the screen Mediatek. And from there, it does absolutely nothing more.
I've tried to flash back the backup that I made to the phone with MTK Droid Tools, both version 5 of SP Flash Tool as version 3, but I'm still not achieving positive results, always it throws me errors errors and more errors . I've searched all over the web, compatible ROMs for this phone, but apparently there is not anything. The only way in which (at least) it begins to flash from SPFT v5, is loading a ROM MTK6571; if not, it only throws errors. However, I've already tried, but it gave me error. It appears when the yellow bar that says Download Flash reaches 3%, and then it throws the error.
The only possible solution I see is to make a ROM (from the backup I made to the phone with MTK Droid Tools before to **** it up) installable from recovery (CWM) that is the only thing that works relatively well. And I have not reached that conclusion alone, but in bilateral agreement with an expert from another forum with who I have almost a month discussing the issue.
I really need help buddies. I am desperate because I'm a bit under pressure because I have almost a month with the phone without achieving the desired results. :crying:
Greetings and thanks in advance to any of you who want to help me.
PD: Sorry for my bad English if I committed mistakes.

Do NOT do this. None of them will work.
Your issue is that 99% of the time clones dont not have the software they claim and are never made by the company they claim they are. You could try porting a rom over that has the same chip but ill be honest. XDA doesnt really do anything with cheap knock off devices. Most people avoid them like the plague.
Sorry for my previous post..... I didn't read carefully. It's not s5 its clone....
Another way...

Best advise is that you can try. Like I said we dont deal with clones at all really.
Worst thing that will happen is that it wont work and you learned a lesson about clone devices.
Hi to all of you.I got given an old samsung galaxy s4 mini(GT-I9192)and the person who gave it said it was broken if you can fix it you can keep/sell it.I tried opening it but it didnt respond to any keys even when i tried download/recovery/power on.As i researched online it seems to me that the device has been hardbricked.The guy who gave it to me said he had sent it to a store to repair and said that his cpu was not functioning anymore for both of his s4 minis which doesnt seem to happen just for the 2 phones that 1 person buys and because i live in Albania services arents so great.When i tried to install a custom rom from odin(latest to this date)it wouldnt recognise it but when i plugged the phone in windows made tge sound that something was plugged in and then shortly after it made the disconnecting sound whoch gives me a reason to think that the device may still be alive.I came here since this is the most know site for tech stuff.I havent seen any kind of bricking before but i read tgat the soft bricked devices just need a clean install and to wipe cache and dalvik which gives it the look when it was bought.Ive seen that you can pay for jtag or try a usb jig but i dont want to spend any money since i have a better phone (galaxy j5 2017) and i just wanted to see if i could use it to experiment with roms root and stuff on there.
Any help will be appriciated and if i have any mistakes in my languagee im sorry because as i said im from Albania and not USA/UK

Download and install the full set of USB drivers for Samsung phones. This might be part of your connection/disconnection issue.
https://developer.samsung.com/galaxy/others/android-usb-driver-for-windows
On your Windows system, go to Control Panel>Device Manager, then connect your device, when you connect it, watch the Device Manager window, if your device connects, it should have something appear on your list of devices. Try to see what the list shows when the device connects, even if it still just a momentary connection, then come back here and post what it says. This will give me a better idea of what is going on with the device.
If what your friend told you about the CPU's being bad is true, you won't be able to fix the device(s) unless you replace the motherboard(s).
Some Samsung devices with locked bootloaders also have a hardware component called a Q-fuse, if someone attempts to flash a custom recovery or anything else custom on the device, it trips Q-fuse which then "burns" the fuse, rendering the device inoperably hardbricked. This is probably what was attempted on the devices you have. If this is what happened, you won't be able to fix it, not even Samsung themselves can fix this, all they can do is salvage the device to reclaim any possible usable hardware components.

Thanks for the reply.First things to start,my friend doesnt mess up with loading custom roms as he doesnt have much knowledge on technology.Next,when i connected the device the first time it showed me the name QSHUSB_DLOAD(or smth like that because i am not avaible to use the computer right now).I tried installing some drivers and i will edit the name that i got when i use the computer in a matter of a hour or two.

Everything you're describing is exactly the results one gets when someone tries to flash something custom via Odin, or when trying to update the device via Odin but the wrong firmware is flashed.
Generally, the only to fix this is to send the device to a professional shop to have a JTAG service performed on the device(s) or replace the motherboard.
From what you describe, I believe the devices are permanently hardbricked, the only solution then is to replace the motherboard. Other than that, you're wasting your time.

Well feom what i know he doesnt know anything about odin or flashing a new rom since he doesnt even know what a rom is.Then again he hasnt done a factory reset since he doesnt know how.And he has even said that hasnt done anything else than getting it out of the box putting a sim card and just using it.If there is anything we can try to bring it to life by trying to flash a new custom rom or the original rom from an sd card or a usb flash drive(since i have the converter from charging port to usb).Anyways i was just trying to see if i could bring it to life and idk maybe give it to someone else or sell it.

Well feom what i know he doesnt know anything about odin or flashing a new rom since he doesnt even know what a rom is.Then again he hasnt done a factory reset since he doesnt know how.And he has even said that hasnt done anything else than getting it out of the box putting a sim card and just using it.If there is anything we can try to bring it to life by trying to flash a new custom rom or the original rom from an sd card or a usb flash drive(since i have the converter from charging port to usb).Anyways i was just trying to see if i could bring it to life and idk maybe give it to someone else or sell it.
Thanks for your help for the tips you have given me amd for the help that you may give in advance

If you can find a "debrick.img" or "unbrick.img",(sometimes, these files are debrick.bin or unbrick.bin), there is a method that involves burning the .img or .bin file on an sdcard to create a type of "bootable disk" to restore the device. The only way to get a copy of this file is from a rooted device with the same model number as yours, try to find one that someone has already creates and made available or try finding someone in this forum that has a device like yours with the same model number and then have them pull a copy of debrick.img from their device and upload it for you to download and use for your device.
Here is a thread for doing this on a galaxy S3, if you can find the specific debrick file for your exact model number, you can try this method. Use the method and the tools as described in the thread, you just need to make sure that any device specific files used in the method are those files for your specific model number.

Use an sdcard, the thread that I linked has instructions for returning the sdcard to normal usage after you're done getting the device restored. No, you can not use a debrick.img or any other file from a device with a different model number, it has to be for YOUR SPECIFIC MODEL NUMBER I have told you that in every one of my replies here, that is a MUST, it is not "optional".
Stop looking for shortcuts, I know it isn't easy to find what you need but there are no substitutes, do it the right way or don't do it at all.
