Unable to flash CWM - LG Optimus 3D

Hello! I've been trying to flash CWM on my LG Optimus 3D, but, unfortunately, I was unable to. I am currently on a stock ROM (or should I say..stuck ROM)
My device is rooted, USB Debugging is enabled, I tried with ROM Manager and Recovery Flash (both from the Market) as well as two PC application. Here is what I get from the CWM Recovert touch installer:
Code:
#######################################
# #
# With this tool you flash the #
# ClockWorkMod-Recovery-Touch 5.8.1.5 #

==== You do this on your own risk!! ====
You want to flash the recovery
and you agree the disclaimer then
choose "Y" to start or "N" to exit!

Choose Y or N [Y,N]?Y

Reboot Device

### Installation finished! ###
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Press any key to continue . . .
After so many tries, I went in to ROM Manager (where it tells me there is no available version for my P920 and specified as manually installed 3x+. Now my phone won't start. I press the power button, the LG logo appears for half a second, then it shuts down. Guess I'll have to reflash it with the LG Recovery tool...
Thank you in advance!

Here is a link to a very good tutorial. there are quite a few more on this subject.

Thank you very much, my friend! I shall try to do this. However, I wanted to find a ROM that is below 4.0.4, I already have the stock 4.0.4 installed, and it is really, really slow. I was looking for an older ROM but unfortunately all links are dead..And CyanogenMod seems not to work for me --'

If you do a search on the optimus 3d forum for "downgrade to gingerbread" you will find help to downgrade. A gingerbread (2.3.5) rom can not be used if you do not downgrade from ICS. None of the rom manager type of apps that are available from the play store work with this phone.Only use the methods to install roms using the recommended methods in the optimus 3D forums
If you upgraded to ICS using LG official update tools, many users have had problems after upgrading. Try the method described in my original post and if you are not happy with the results maybe then try a downgrade.

FAQ
Q: I'm stuck inside a bootloop after rooting!!!11
A1: The system.img.gz you applied, wasn't suiting to the firmware version installed on your tablet. Download latest Acer firmware update ( !!! if available !!!), copy it on a micro sd card, plug it into your Iconia, go to recovery by holding Volume up and Power button while device is turned off. Then choose apply update from sd card.
A2: If you cannot apply any Acer firmware, because you always get a partition error while installing, you should do a reboot after you get the error. A user reported that this made her/his device boot into Android again, showing the new version in settings -> info. Good luck
A3: If your device is really bricked you could try bring it back to life. Here you find help: link1, link2, link3, link4 (many thanks to Gilly10, drmad and Hamza91)
A4 (B1-A71, B1-710, B1-711 only): Unbrick
A5: If the A1 - A4 didn't help. Send back the device to Acer. Tell them you tried to apply an update from sd card and ended up in this bootloop. Sending device back to Acer over UPS is free. Good luck!
Q: Successfully rooted, but still no root after rebooting!
A: Have you installed Superuser App from Google Play Store?
(B1-A71 only)Q: Cannot update, always getting ERROR: - Invalid partition setting; 17: fat 238e8000:888e8000; Instalation aborted.
A: Download "Invalid Partition Error" Patch.
(B1-A71 only)Q: I applied update from RV05RC05 to RV05RC06 but still it shows RV05RC05.
A: There is no RV05RC06. It is the RV05RC05. It got on Acers Download section with a RV05RC06 named zip file. But the content is 100% equal to RV05RC05.
Q: Toolkit fails or crashes for any reason and I don't know what to do.
A: Run it again with parameter -d, e.g.: toolkit.exe -d and post the entire output here.
Q: Root from scratch on Linux doesn't work because of Error message: 'No such file or directory bin/posix/64/adb'
A: sudo apt-get install ia32-libs libstdc++6 libgcc1 zlib1g libncurses5 libsdl1.2debian
Q: Can i flash a custom recovery?
A: No, because bootloader is locked. You would brick your tablet.
Q: Are there Custom ROMs?
A: No, see answer above.
Q: Is my data wiped during root?
A: No.
Q: Do i lose root after factory reset or wipe date?
A: No.
Q: I get an error in Engineer mode entering telnet command.
A: If Swiftkey is installed / enabled try settings Google AOSP Keyboard as default.
Q: How can I start telnet server manually?
A: Try this.
What you can do with root:
Apply Supercharger V6 by zeppelinrox and significally speed up your tablet! [My small How-To]
Install Adaway, an ad-blocker for webbrowsers and apps containing ads.
Install ROM Toolbox and customize boot screen and other funny things.
Install Titanium Backup to Backup, Freeze, Uninstall any App and more.
Install Datasync to sync app data like save states between rooted devices.
What you can NOT do with root on these devices:
Change DPI
Flash Custom Recoveries
Flash Custom ROMs

Regards,
I uploaded a new version where I added some commands that hopefully resolve the permissions issues.
The problem is, that I can't reproduce it.
Are you rooting the Iconia the first time? or did you already have root before?
Regarding the progress bar. It only appears when writing the system.img.gz
I have Windows 7 64 bit, btw.

I will try to fix it asap. The problem is, that I cannot reproduce it.
I assume that the chmod 777 /cache command that I do, before the adb push command fails with "Operation not permitted."
But this I still don't know how to fix. If someone knows, tell me!
error in v.0.2.3
Dear entonjackson,
thanks for your work and for the time you spend on it.
Unfortunately, I too have problems with the tool for Windows since version 0.2.0 and also with the latest version (0.2.3).
The error messages that I receive are identical (with the same line numbers) to those receiving cakadut in his last post.
I am trying to root Iconia for the first time.
I tried with Windows 7-32bit and Windows 7 64-bit.
My configuration:
Iconia B1-A71 8GB ROM, 512Mb ram
Android 4.1.2
kernel 3.4.0
Image version: Acer_AV051_B1-A71_RV04RC04_WW_GEN1
Build Number: Acer_AV051_B1-A71_1.174.00_WW_GE
I hope you can find the solution.
Thank you for sharing your work with us.
Just uploaded a new version. Could you please try again?
It's hard to fix for me, because I don't have the problem, so all I can do is try. Thanks for the patience!
****, I think i found the bug. Don't try 0.2.4 it won't work also.

Ok, people. With pawitp's help I hopefully fixed the permissions bug.
The problem was, that i was trying to chmod the /cache directory directly from adb shell, which isn't possible. I forgot, that this needs to be done from telnet. So in 0.2.6 I'm setting permission with telnet. This should fix it!
Please report!
Good luck :fingers-crossed:

I will try to do a video tutorial, but it's very easy to do.
Download and install Ex Dialer & Contacts.
Launch the app.
Dial *#*#ENGMODE#*#*.
Swipe from right to left (to Connectivity). Then choose CDS Information and Network Utility.
There you paste this command: /data/local/tmp/busybox telnetd -l /system/bin/sh -p 1234
stell no thing happen maybe i must upgrade to pro version ???

Thanks entonjackson,
unfortunately with version 0.2.6 I can not get the ADB connection with the tablet. The message it gives me is:
"Trying to Establish ADB Connection (If this hangs, ADB Connection failed. CMD Shell Close and open a new one) ..."
and remains so without making the connection.
If I run the command 'adb devices' in another command line session, the device is seen correctly (0123456789ABCDEF device),
but when I run the new version (0.2.6) of the tool, the message is what I wrote above.
Thank you for your patience.

3. How do you fix the screen jump issue?
There are several options here:
From @the1024 / zOrgent we have two options 1. Using a chinese tool - and 2. Using a .bat
From elephone we have TpUpgrade.apk (appears to only work with V8.4)
From lidmiloff we have P6000 Bugfixer.apk​
4. How do you restore a Stock ROM?
Download a SPFlash ROM from #1; you will need to install MediaTek USB VCOM drivers (if they aren't automatically installed); On the download page select the scatter from the ROM folder; and the page should populate with the various .img's and .bins; if it doesn't then double click on the entry and locate it manually (also useful if you wan to change boot/recovery with SPFlash). Hit download; remove the battery from the phone and connect it to the PC (you can connect the battery again). The connection will be fairly instantaneous (there may be a driver install the first time it's connected); if it doesn't connect then unplug/replug.
More details from @bigrammy found here
5. Battery jump from 100% to 90%.
Haven't really noticed this too much - download an app like Battery Monitor Widget, add widget (Battery monitor widget gauge => Content => Central value => Battery => Battery Current (mA)) which will show you the battery drain/draw and charge until the draw is close to; if not +0mA
6. Is there any touch recovery?
As of now (pre-5.0) there is no touch recovery. The recovery thread on #1 contains various recoveries - most of which boot but none have touch - this seems to be a kernel issue.
Touch recoveries can be found here. These are built for KK.
7. What about Custom ROMs?
Potential Port devices (MT6732/MT6752) and their ROMS
As there are no official sources released; for MT6732 or P6000 then custom ROMs are a no-go for now. Porting ROMs from other devices running on MT6732 (and MT6752); i.e. Ulefone Be Pro for example is theoretically possible but there doesn't appear to be any custom ROMs on these chips that offer anything different than the stock/AOSP(almost) that we have already. As other devices get released possibly running MIUI or ColorOS then Custom ROMs may be possible.
FlymeOS
8. How do you take a screenshot?
Natively pressing Volume down and power together for 1 second will take a screenshot - it may take a while to get used to - if volume mixer appears then they were too slow and need to wait for it to disappear. Over adb/terminal you can make use of screencap and screen record
9. How do you back up EVERYTHING(except preloader)?
In SPFlash Tools => readback from 0x00 to 0x3a3e000000
This is a fairly quick way to make sure you have a copy of all the partitions on the device; it will create a 14GB+ file containing all the partitions. You will need to break this block up (manually for the moment) into it's constituent parts if you want to use it to restore - using a Hex-editor (HxD for example) and a copy of the matching /proc/partinfo file and/or scatter.txt
The essential partitions to backup for a fully running device are - boot, (recovery), system, (cache) and data which can all be backed up using a custom recovery. The one other partition needed is nvram - this can be backed up with SPFlash (look at /proc/partinfo) or with dd commands. The nvram partition will only be needed to be restored if you Format All with SPFlash. If you don't have a backup you can restore/recreate the IMEI files that it contains.
10. How do you backup/restore IMEI?
Several options here:
1. MTKDroid
2. Backup NVFLASH partition via readback in SPFlash Tools (look at the scatter.txt) to restore you need to modify the scatter.txt to give the nvflash a file_name: and change it from is_Download: false to is_Download: true
3. From elephone there's a IMEI coding tool
4. Keep a copy of the /data/nvram folder
5. Create new imei files to add to nvram folder/partition with imei.exe
6. Chamelephon app from the play store
7. MTK Engineering Mode
11. Adb access with 5.0 Beta ROMs
1. Use KingoRoot
2. Add the Mediatek subsystem id (0x0e8d) to adb_usb.ini
12. Any Stock Camera fixes?
For KK-4.4.4 from @z0rgent at 4pda

Custom Recovery
Recovery from @carliv - from #1; modded to boot on L (basically just the cmdline changed / initrd.gz from stock L recovery replaced with carliv's built CWM).
Carliv Port by hanuma50 on 4pda (hopefully all his work and not partially stolen to take credit)
This recovery seems to only work when the Lollipop Beta ROM is installed.
Gapps
64-bit gapps made for the Nexus 9.
My phone seems to be running a little hot after installing the gapps - but that might just all the cores kicking in.
Mirrored copy of the version I'm using.
(OP's thread has updated them and removed the previous version)
Busybox
64-bit busybox installation
Removing encrypted data (temporarily)
In recovery while in an adb shell: /sbin/make_ext4fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p19
This will allow you to restore backed up data - but it will get re-encrypted on first boot, I'll take a look at removing encryption when I get the chance - should be either secro partition or something in the boot.img​
Android 5.0 Beta Breakdown
Screenshots to come later.
Entering LKVOL UP and POWER (this no longer enters recovery)
From lk menu: entering fastboot mode and normal boot works.
Entering recovery (stock) doesn't work and I can't tell if the other normal boot options do anything different​Charging batteryFlashing a custom recovery should allow you some way to charge the battery​I haven't yet been able to install/boot any recovery. Flashing lk and boot from 4.4.4 (I took them from the 48MB OTA) seems to let you charge when powered off. Confirmed​RIL Memory leakThere seems to be a RIL/Sim related memory leak leading to random reboots - for testing purposes disable the sim card(s) or enter airplane mode
I could be wrong about the RIL and the ROM just needed time to settle; all I can say is I had reboots until I switched to airplane mode​IMEIIMEI was lost but that would be due to formatted flash memory (wiped nvflash partition) - it's a good idea to keep a backup regardless.​Antutu Scores64-bit Antutu Scores are around 28000
32-bit Scores are around 27000
Data-encrypted 4.4.4 Antutu scores are also around 28000​SensorsBacklight, sound ... can't be changed
Brightness can be fixed in MTK Engineering Mode #5​ROM is not rooted; does not have gapps installed and data is encrypted.
TL;DR The issues with the 5.0 Beta ROM, are primarily not ROM related but kernel related, they have bumped the kernel version up to 3.10.61+, and the issues that need correcting are the various kernel modules (power,sensors).

Xposed Installer (or WSM Tools)
I've had no problems with any xposed modules.
You will get a warning regarding AliyunOS -
this issue is reported due to the presence of /system/framework/*.jar.jex files.
You can ignore/move/remove these *.jar.jex files without it causing any (noticable) issue.
I haven't decompiled any apps so I don't know if. jex files are used elsewhere within the ROM (in place of .jar),
so can't comment on whether the stock ROM is indeed an Aliyun OS.
I would advise backing them up so that any future OTA can complete 100%.
Any issues identified with xposed modules will be reported here.​
Very Helpful and concise
Nice one bro :good:

Well, I tried the first methods which came out and they wouldn't work. Then I upgraded to V8.4, at the same time the Elephone APK came out, so I used it and it set the thresholds to 3 and 4. Then I decided to go back to V8.3 and since then, no method managed to make a persistent change to the values (I tried ludmiloff's works, Elephone's APK modified by me, which worked for others, and the old Russian method). At best, I get the new vaules in the "init config" portion of the configuration, never in the "real config" portion, and they are always gone after a reboot. File permissions of /proc/gt9xx_config are 660, owned by root. The config version letter is currently F and ludmiloff's app reads it correctly.
I guess that's all the info I can share.

Well, time to get in here, I guess...
@xenonism, the best I could tell you is to start over with clean ROM, preferably the one listed at 4pda.ru thread about elephone P6000 (in the head section) and try again. There must be something messed up in your device. I really believe the config is independent of ROM. The secret is very simple, you must start with new version letter and at offset 184 set correct checksum. How to calculate checksum:
//cal checksum
byte checksum;
for(i=0; i<chip_cfg_len; i++) {
checksum += file_config;
}
file_config[chip_cfg_len] = (~checksum) + 1;
Where chip_cfg_len = 184
Then write the checksum and write 0x01 at offset 185.
I believe you already know where are the theshsold values - at offset 16 and 17.
If you wish, I could send you my hand crafted config, which I was an inspiration for my apk.
Good luck
Err... it looks like I am unable to install a clean ROM, or even to update the existing one. I guess I'll have to sort this issue out before I join back the discusssion.
I have a fully functionalV8.3_20141228 ROM running and carliv's CWM from the 7th of February installed. The phone offers me the OTA update and it downloads a ~23 MB update. When I agree to install it, the phone reboots to CWM and the update fails with the following messages:
E:Invalid command argument
Finding update package...
E:unknown volume for path [/storage/sdcard0/adupsfota/update.zip]
E:Can't mount /storage/sdcard0/adupsfota/update.zip

But when I reboot the phone, I get the "Android is upgrading...] Screen, saying it's optimizing 124 apps. I believe no actual update takes place, though.
And here's what I'd consider the relevant portion of the recovery.log file:

If I try to install the full 20150109 ROM with ROM Manager, it also fails in CWM, without displaying any meaningful messages in recovery. I also get the "Android is upgrading screen here".
The errors in recovery.log are the same as above.
I guess I could install the full ROM via SP Flash Tool, right?
Also... I have a couple of questions to ask, can I feel free to do it in this thread? Some might be trivial for most.

@ludmiloff does your app require busybox to be installed?
Downloading from 4pda.ru is a bit hit and miss for me, any chance someone can post the CWMLollipop.img...
Is there any difference in the 4pda.ru ROMs and the ones on needrom.com?
Also found a fix for the backlight in Android L - in engineering mode - not sure if it will do anything useful in 4.4.4 (lower the minimum brightness?).

Ok, thanks a lot. I will edit my post right now. The thing is... I haven't used an Android phone in 4 years and I did a lot of my tinkering on my P6000 while working or late at night so.. things got a bit messy.
@HypoTurtle,
My app does not require busybox. It simply run some commands in the shell, though.
In fact It is my first experience with android programming and I just followed some examples found here and there. I also wanted to make a Kotlin based app, but then I decided to continue with plain old java. The app might not a perfect one. Hope it worked for many of elephone owners
---------- Post added at 08:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:41 AM ----------
@xenonism, you should try a clean ROM with sp flash tool. It is a bit tricky, I have tried one from needrom and as the author suggested, I did not check the preloader mark. Then my phone ended totally bricked. The ROM from 4pda worked for me. Today I'm going to reflash it again and investigate why my app does not work on it.
@ludmiloff, I ended up installing 20150109 via SP Flash Tool and then updating via OTA to the latest version. Sure enough, your app worked then. And permissions for gt9xx_config are now 666.
I am not particularly happy with the gravitybox solution for the notification issue, so I'm trying to look into it, but I am not really hopeful to achieve something.

Same I did just few minutes ago. Won't install updates and will try to make my app working on this ROM.
BTW. Russian method write a very different format to file /process/gmnodexxxxxxx where xxxxxxx is build date. I'm pretty sure if I could change the file with correct checksum and version letter it should work too.
Anyway, my intent was to fix the scroll after I applied the elephone apk. For sure the Russian method with correct version letter and checksum would work too and it is still the best flow now for phones with very stock ROM. I already explained how to calculate the checksum.

[GUIDE] Huawei Y5C | Y541-U02 | Honor Bee : Stock ROMs, ROM Dumping, Root & Flashing
Disclaimer
Upon following this guide, you may or may not achieve same results with others. I am not held responsible for anything unexpected that may happen to your device. Do your research first regarding the areas you do not quite understand. Follow at your own risk.​
Prerequisites
Spreadtrum Flash Tool R4.0.0001 (PAC Flashing) or Flashfire (Zip flashing)
SPRD USB Driver (needed for PAC Flashing)
Male to Micro USB Cable (needed for PAC Flashing)
7-Zip
Root with SuperSU (just below, needed for first time Zip flashing)
Packet (*.pac) or Zip ROM (found below)
Rooting
Install and gain root through KingRoot android application.
Restart your phone. (I've encountered a sudden reboot when doing the steps below without this)
Replace KingRoot with SupeSU through this script.
Once the archive is downloaded, extract it. There will be a folder named root where you extract it.
Download and open Terminal Emulator.
Change directory to the root folder that was extracted:
Code:
cd /path/to/root
Then ask for root permissions:
Code:
su
Now run the first script:
Code:
sh level1.sh
Run the second script:
Code:
sh level2.sh
Leave the terminal running and open KingRoot.
Press the button at the upper right corner, and choose general settings.
Scroll down and press uninstall.
Uncheck backup and press OK.
After KingRoot has finished uninstalling, go ahead and uninstall Purify as well.
Go back to the terminal and run the third, last script:
Code:
sh level3.sh
Again leaving the terminal running, install SuperSU and open it.
Let it update the root binary through Normal method, and restart.
Notes:
Currently SuperSU's prompt for applications asking for root permissions does not work, but, changing the setting to "grant" will. Just return it to "deny" afterwards, for security. That's the workaround for now.
Dumping
Before doing anything to your device, it is advised to create a ROM dump/backup beforehand. Also make sure you have a lot of free space on your internal storage.​
Open up terminal and gain root permissions:
Code:
su
Then get the partition details:
Code:
ls -al /dev/block/platform/sprd-sdhci.3/by-name
Dump each partition (X) with its name (Y):
Code:
dd =if/dev/block/mmcblk0pX of=/sdcard/Y.img
Do not forget to dump the two bootloaders:
Code:
dd =if/dev/block/mmcblk0boot0 of=/sdcard/splloader.img
Code:
dd =if/dev/block/mmcblk0boot1 of=/sdcard/uboot.img
Flashing
PAC
Extract all the downloaded archives and install the driver (either 32install for 32/86bit or 64install for 64bit OS).
Open the flash tool by double clicking the executable named "ResearchDownload".
Once the flash tool opens, click the single gear button at the top left.
Find and open the PAC ROM.
Press the play button.
Power down the device, hold the volume down button and plug it into the PC.
The flash tool will then recognize the device and start downloading binaries to it.
Once the progress column shows "PASSED", the binary download is finished and the device can now be safely unplugged.
Remove the battery, reinsert, and power the device.
Zip
Gain root if not already done so.
Open Flashfire. (press agree and the other one is up to the user)
Press the red circular button with a plus sign ( + ) on the bottom right, and choose Flash ZIP or OTA.
Find and open the downloaded Zip ROM.
There will be a pop-up for a few settings, leave it as is and press the check icon at the upper right.

Notes:
These ROMs are repacked and tested first before being posted, so if one of these does not work, try another. If none worked, just wait, others will share a new partition dump.
These ROMs do not contain a system, custom and cache dump because these are for unbricking for now. Prerooted full repacks are coming soon.
Stock ZIPs
Notes:
As the device refuses any custom or modified stock binaries, Flashfire is the only way to go to install zips.
These are pre-rooted, deodexed, zipaligned, de-bloated, and of course tested.
None at the moment.
Troubleshooting
If the flash tool fails to download, either the downloaded ROM is incompatible with the device, or the cable is loose.
If the device shows a white screen but the booting sound is heard, try another one.
Support
If anyone happens to have the same device model in fully working condition but seems to be different, kindly make a partition dump of it and PM the link, so it can be processed and uploaded here.​

As of now, with the bootloader locked, there is none.
In future can we expect the same..........
The closest we can get is a modified stock. In the future, there might, but let us not get our hopes up.

thanks for the rom, i ve already flashed it onto my soho.
is there a list with all the features of the rom? what did you remove and could you remove the amazon-ads too?
rom seems bugless so far and i ve installed xposed from solarwarez without a problem.
Many thanks for putting this ROM together - it breathes new life into my soho Kindle.
I've just finished installing/booting, ROM is working great. Any tweaking for power/speed would be awesome.
Cheers !
kindle hd 7 3rd generation
will this work with the above kindle. I've already rooted and rom'd my hdx 8.9, so am familiar with the language..its running 4.5.5.2 as well.
I also purchased a fastboot cable.
thanks
How do I root my soho..ive looked through so much today that my mind is spinning... I have a fastboot cable.. ive looked at various threads, but still not sure where to start. I would really appreciate some help, ive read through a document that goes through stages, but i seem to falter at the first hurdle. Anyway, I am not going to give up, just some bullet points as to what to do in what order would be great ...... thank you in anticipation...

I too would like to try this ROM. Does anyone have a link to it?
It is listed but not hyperlinked - First Soho Fireos 4 based customized rom
Thanks!
So I wiped the system partition prior to flashing, and now missing basic system elements for boot. Apparently this is a mod and not a ROM. So what's custom? I don't see anything different. What's "unlocked" exactly that wasn't already?
hey guys i have a twrp system backup for you for the latest update but i recommend the new Android 7.1.X based rom for our device
one last update: for amazon fire os will be uploaded this week
this project is discontinued

How to root a Kindle Fire 7 (2013) soho
Hello everybody! I am new to xda so I hope I'm in the right place. I have tried to start a new thread about this but I coudl not so I am posting this here hoping to find an answer. Rooting a KF (2013) has proved to be quite challenging for me, also because I am dumb . Anyway I have tried to install the 'Permanent Root with Superuser' via Kindle Fire Utility 0.9.8 but I am not able to. I know that I am missing something but I am too dumb to understand what. I need the help of experts. So, I have run Kindle Fire Utility 0.9.8 and I got this:

In both cases my tablet reboots but checking with 'Root Analyzer' I can see that it is not rooted.
I have also tried rooting with Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v30 choosing the 1st option but I get this:

At this point, my kindle fire displays a screen where I have to choose between 'Do not restore' and 'Restore my data' and I chose 'Restore my data' but my tablet does not reboot at all and the runme.bat file keeps running forever. I have also tried not to press anything at all on the 'Do not restore/Restore my data' screen and I get this:
HTML:

Press any key to continue . . .
My tablet actually reboots but checking with Root Analyzer I still see the message 'No, your device is not rooted'. What should I do? :'( Ask me all the questions you need and I'll do my best to answer them. Also, please keep in mind that I am not technical therefore explain me things as you would explain them to a quite smart baby Thanks for your help!
Also, I'll write here more details about my device if it is of any help for you guys:
