And then re-signed with the signed-ROM ZIP_APK,rename update.zip,flash by recovery but now:

Hello,
I'm looking for how to make an update.zip with this firmware Dapeng.
Or how to extract the system.img of this firmware above.
Thank you for your help and sorry for my BAD English !
I gathered all the conversations in XDA about the Dapeng A8500:

Dear XDA Noobs and Gurus,
U have this lousy DaPang Dpad which I want to flash, restore, re-rom and just redo. I have managed to completely unlock it and root it but the rom is not available to be backed up or restored. I checked out the root folders and no rom. I have scoured the web and this forum for valuable information but have come up short...
I am unable to get to fastboot mode or find a rom manager that works with it. IF I press the power button, volume rocker up and the menu button, it takes me to "Factory Mode" which has, "Full Test", "Item Test", "Test Report", "Clear Flash", "Version" and "Reboot". Nothing else. I cannot seem to find a restore screen or find a way to restore/flash the original rom or even a new one. I have done my homework around this issue and if there is someone out there that might help me here, great, if not, I will keep plugging away.
Thank you for any help (in advance). Oh and Happy Holidays (Merry Christmas)!

hey jayguruson if u press vol. up + power u will end up at the recovery mode, where u can flash / install 'update.zip' file. i tried to install DSP (equalizer) and uRevoke (some sort of custom recovery mode but were meant for a certain brand phone) but failed. it just stopped halfway. i also used titanium backup to save a backup file (update.zip..inside there is a META-INF and data files, is this the rom backup file?).

I finally decided to look at the datasheet after I couldn't find any useful info to overclock MT6516, & I don't think it can be done. MT6516's max speed is 416Mhz (not 460Mhz) and it's already set to run max speed by default. Even if we manage to configure the scaling governor, that would have been futile (unless you want underclocking )
It would be nice to hear opinions from the real experts here though.

i tried widget overclock. it shows 200+. am i right to assume that is the A8500 speed running. if that is the speed then it can be overclocked, probably to 400 or 500.
i also tried setcpu. it shows a reading of max speed about 500+ but it can't run, always FC.
my understanding is, if the stock rom can be re-packaged (hopefully with a customized 'kernel') and re-flashed back, then the rom will become a customized rom. and all overclock program will only works with a customized rom/kernel.

update zip file
here's the titanium backup update zip file for whoever can make use of it. i m not very sure if it is the original rom file. i created it with titanium backup pro.
http://www.4shared.com/folder/q7JWoBJX/_online.html
i m also not very sure of this upload file. 1st time doing this uploading. i can't upload with megaupload and a few other becos my country malaysia had blocked those sites. so i hope those who have files for sharing can also upload to 4share. tq
Hi cwkhong ,
to start thank you,but the files that are needed is not in the update.zip titanium.
If you want, I will explain how to quickly extract the whole system of Dapeng it's very easy because I need it urgently
1)you need rooted your Dapeng with z4root in Dapeng tools :
(after installed z4root,execute click on permanent root and after the Dapeng re-boot and you rooted)
2)you need install RootExplorer in Dapeng tools.
3)Open RootExplorer and copy the file system (for copy you need long press on the file)
4)open file sdcard in RootEplorer and past,wait for the copy
5) you upload the file system
(Have no fear, no personal data is in system)
There is another way to extract all: boot.img, system, recovery.
This method by the SDK is very interesting in the future if you want to manipulate the system Dapeng and see many other things.
I think I'll need (boot.img) to create an update.zip for recovery by the Dapeng and to provide a ROM for other people who have blocked their Dapeng A8500.
1)you need rooted your Dapeng with z4root here in Dapeng tools :
(after installed z4root,execute click on permanent root and after the Dapeng re-boot and you rooted)
2)you need install the SDK on your PC,just copy SDK file in C:/ :
3)you go in Dapeng and active "débogage USB"in Paramètres/applications/développement.
4)now you follow this tutorial :

ok here is the file (/system) that i copied, i hope this is the one. http://www.4shared.com/zip/Y6wSPyz6/system.html
r u going to create a custom rom? or u unpack, edit, repack and reflash? so that means after this the phone can be overclock?
maybe u teach me how to unpack and repack the rom. i want clean out all those bloatware/rubbish in the original rom to become a clean light rom.
what is the 'recovery-update.zip' file i found in ur Star tools? is that a custom recovery mode that will overide the stock one?
i really hope u can make it. good luck

Hi,
in the Dapeng tools there is a clockrecovery-update.zip, renamed update.zip, you copy your SD and get into the recovery to original flash update.zip.
Then to activate the button return to confirm press: Vol + and return to activate the confirmation button with return key.(insist if not work)
Now not need to sign update.zip for this clockrecovery but is tempory after re-boot not installed, look here:

speakers issue
hello there it's been awhile, any development?
anyway i wonder if there is a way to adjust the phone speakers setting, front and back. i find the sound loud but distorted, very high pitch near crackling. or maybe it is the speakers itself, poor quality. if so, is it possible to replace the speakers on my own without sending to phone shop. i have a few old phones with okay speaker quality.
that's it?
so nothing? it is frustrating to see improvements on those A1000,A2000,A3000..etc but nothing for A8500. guess i'll just use it as a phone, what a shame.
hi, i see you have updated the firmware to A8500 android 2.2 sucessfully.i just checked there is a upgrade version of A8500, called A8500+, it is android 2.3 with MTK6573, do you know whether your firmware can work in this phone?
2.3 update?
where is that a8500 2.3 update? my phone is mt6516. its different fr mt 6573 probably lower cpu. can u explain how to update?

The phone goes off whenever the screen is timed out (say display time out at 30 seconds, then the phone shut off automatically after 30 seconds). Even, if I press the power off button to turn off the display, the phone goes off and never switched on pressing the power button. To switch on the phone, I have to re-insert the battery and then press the power on button.
Please advice me how to set the screen time out and power on problem. thanks.
Dapeng A8500+ MT6573 Bricked solid
Hi Bruno,
I happily used the phone for about seven months.
Everything was great until I installed ROM Tool Box, and as soon I installed some larger system font, the phone died instant death. I've tried flashing tools but, by using half a knowledge combined with even lesser:silly: patience, the result is that now I can't even get to the new Android boot logo. Here are the ROM details:

EFS Pro 2.0.12: Unable to Create Archive
I am a new user to EFS Pro, and am using v2.0.12. I tried other older versions, and am getting the same error, and that is when I start the backup, I get an error that it cannot create the archive.
My S3 Tmobile (SGH-T999) is rooted and currently running CM10.1 1/24 nightly. I also enabled USB & ADB debugging. The program accesses the phone OK, it seems that the problem is just in the final saving of the file.
I thought perhaps it was a permission issue with the program not being able to write to my disk, however I have it running with Administrator privileges. I'm stumped. Oh and my O/S is Windows 7 Pro, 64-bit.

Since I am super noob in this forum, I will like to share the backup I made for the phone:
Hardware : MT6589M
Model : BLU DASH 4.5
Build number : BLU-D310i-V03-GENERIC
Build date UTC : 20130620-120506
Android v : 4.2.1
Baseband v: V0.0.5, 2013/05/25 14:20
Kernel v : 3.4.5 ([email protected]) (gcc version 4.6.x-google 20120106 (prerelease) (GCC) ) #1 SMP Thu Jun 20 20:02:55 CST 2013
LCD Driver IC : 1-otm8018b_dsi_vdo_djn
The reason is because I didn't found the stock rom for this phone and I know how easy we can brick our phone doing experiments with modified roms. The other reason is because I want that somebody can make a custom rom with this or can ported from others building a higher version like android 4.3 or 4.4.
This backup is made with the MTK Droid Tool, and can be use with the Flash Tool application.
The link for download is a mega folder containing the drivers for windows and the tools to install the rom back in the phone:
https://mega.co.nz
rest of the link:
/#F!bgBBDJoL!RzicYQbqwRF3cfyYYJ1rHg
The backup has root permission and cwm recovery and ziped with 7zip 9.30.
Hope this helps somebody with this device.
For install the stock rom:
Firts Install the drivers, I use w8.1 x64 and works perfect with the w7 x64 driver, firts connect the phone to usb and remove the battery, then put the battery again and it will install the driver.
Decompress the file: BLU-D310i-V03-GENERIC_Files_to_FlashTool_rooted_with_cwm.7z with 7zip 9.30, open the flash tool, load the file: MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc.txt, select recovery and system android, unselect the others and press the boton Download, remove the battery and put it on again, it will start the transfer.
For install the mod rom:
Once you hace the recovery cwm installed and rooted, you can install rom, firts copy the file: MERE_mod_BLU-D310i_ROM_signed_es.zip or MERE_mod_BLU-D310i_ROM_unsigned.zip into the sdcard, shutdown the phone, remove the battery, put the battery on and press the power button at the same time withe the volumen+ button, once in recovery mode wipe the factory and dalvi cache, then install the zip from sdcard.
This rom is a mod of the MERE rom from Team Epic with the fix of the camera to work with the model D310i.
Enjoy it.
thanx

Hey Guys,
I need your ******* help!
I am porting AICP for the Elephone, which works very well but the ****ty modem doesn't work.
If you start the phone, it wont ask for any PIN for the sim-cards, it knews, that this device have two slots but both are empty. IMEI is unknown also the baseband.
I found out later, that the Elephone have a modem processor (MT6290) which seems to handle everything about GSM and rest.
I tried to make a Emergency Call but the Dialer went black (probably because there is nothing to communicate).
It seems to be that I have to implement the MT6290 with the custom ROM but I don't know how or where I should start :/
I really need help, I please everyone for help. I wanna do this!
Best Regards
Pascal
