[TUTORIAL][GUIDE]Complete Guide to ROOTING, CWM & ROM(s) for LAVA ETAB XTRON+(RK3066)
Here is a short review first
| HARDWARE |:-: Talking about the Lava Xtron+’s hardware, the tablet boasts a dual core Cortex A9 CPU with each core clocked at 1.5Ghz and a Mali 400 Quad Core GPU.
Well, for the proof of graphics power, see the benchmarks by fonearena.com ,63.9 fps in nenamark, and the most important thing according to me, RK3066 IS THE BEST LAST GEN GAMING CHIPSET BETTER THAN TEGRA 3...I am a true geek and after searching for 20+ hours came to a conclusion that this is the best piece of android till 12-13k,(except Lumia 520 but it is windows)..
| BATTERY | :-:Coming on to battery, When I opened the battery stats page I find that Cell standby had consumed nearly 60% of the battery.WHAT!? Cell standby is the battery used by radio cells for mobile networks. This tablet DOES NOT have cell radio! The engineers working on this tablet didn't even bother to setup the OS properly and instead chose to simply download Android 4.2, flashed it in the tablet and have put it up on sale.
The Flipkart page reports the battery capacity to be 3,700mAh, which is probably wrong since the official specifications page on Lava’s website reports it to be only 3,000mAh. I can't be sure..:silly:
AIRPLANE MODE IS NOT COMPLETELY WORKING DUE TO DEFECTIVE DRIVERS (CELL RADIO DRIVERS ARE PRESENT IN THIS TAB SO IT SEARCHES FOR DRIVERS CONTINUOUSLY AND FUC*S BATTERY UP!:crying There is a fix in the post
| SCREEN |:-:The front of the Lava Xtron+ holds a 7-inch sharp IPS LCD display having a resolution of 1024 x 600. It’s a bright screen and with a pixel density of 170 PPI, it is pretty sharp too. The best part about the display is that, despite being an LCD screen, it’s not a battery consuming monster. I always found its battery usage to be lower than processes. The screen is prone to scratches though and is highly reflective.
We can enable the biggest advantage of PC gaming in android now, i.e 4xMSAA in deveoper settings, makes gaming experience even better than tegra 3

Before starting i would say that i am not responsible if any guides here bricks your device ( it should not happen at all if u follow all steps properly as the chances of permanent brick of rk3066 is very slim but boot loop is a possibility) I made this thread to collect everything I've done in one place. This should make everything very straightforward and basically most probably n00b-proof.
| ROOTING | :-:
Pre Requisites-Working drivers (if not then no problem), OEM USB Cable, LAVA ETAB XTRON+, 2 windows apps and PATIENCE
{Screen shots of important steps is in the attachements}
(i) For Drivers download and install moborobo
HTML:
http://download.moborobo.com/download/Client/Moborobo(Moborobo_En_official).exe
(ii) In tablet go to in Settings >developers options and turn it on and enable USB Debugging & before connecting it to your PC go into the tab's
settings again and click on storage.In it you will find 3 dots in top right hand corner.> USB computer connection >Enable Mass storage
Note: DO "NOT" TURN USB STORAGE "ON".(When Connected to PC)
Note: Remove your external SD card before rooting.
(iii) Connect it to your PC and click on refresh and install/find drivers and it will download and install them..(there might be a security warning
about force install) Now, it may not recognize the model no, IMEI and other things and say that the device is JB7+ but the only thing you
should look for to make sure it is the right device is the total size and usage of internal Memory and NAND Flash..
(iii) Now drivers are securely installed and the tab is connected in the right way (there is no OEM (LAVA) drivers anywhere)
Download the zdm (Chinese software) in the attachments (For Every Step first see the screenshot)
Note:IT MAY INSTALL SOME USELESS SOFTWARE ON UR PC AND TAB , BUT IT CAN BE UNINSTALLED.
(iii)) When it detects the there will be something written like this in the bottom right corner :??ROOT : ONE or something like that (not in screen
shots as the tab is already rooted ) but it must be in green colour.This is the confirmation that the device can be rooted.
(iv) Now click on the Root Button in left hand side
(v) Click twice on green (thingy) first where it says ROOT then again for the confirmation popup (says something else but in green box)
(vi) Rooting Process has begun and the tab will restart (my PC is quite fast so it was almost instantly restarted and the Super SU was flashed it may or may not take 2-3 mins)
Note:IT WILL INSTALL SUPERUSER , WHICH IS OUTDATED BUT BEFORE DOWNLOADING OTHER SUPERUSER APP , USE THE ONE PRE-INSTALLED TO UPDATE SU BINARY.
DEVICE IS ROOTED WOOT! WOOT! you can also check by using Titanium Backup or root checker.
Mod Edit: Rooting method also described by Mohd.Anas here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48776299
How to fix battery:-:
Get root explorer open system/app and rename phone .apk and telephonesomething.apk to phone.bak and telephonysomething.bak, you are good to go..
Also, you should change the WiFi scanning interval to 500 I.e 5 min as you really just require one scan when connecting to a known network..change the wifi supplicant scan interval to 500 build.prop
| CLOCKWORKMOD CUSTOM RECOVERY (GENERIC RK3066) 6.0.3.1|:-:
There are 2 methods one is tested by me(both are the same recovery created by the famous user "fun" at androtab.info), it works on our tab because when I opened the kernel.img with a hex editor (like Neo Hex Editor) the first line started with "KRNL" so I have a dedicated kernel in the kernel partition and I can just use the generic CWM. You can also follow this procedure just to be sure..make a online nandroid backup find kernel.img and open it up in pc in hex editor..
(A)METHOD TESTED BY ME
(i) Firstly you have to get the arctools apk,either by registering at their forum..
HTML:
http://www.arctablet.com/blog/forum/arctools-application/clockworkmod-cwm-recovery-easy-install-on-rk3066-and-rk3188-devices/
(ii) Click on download and select RK3066 CWM fun androtabinfo 6.0.3.1, there is only one option like that so it may or may not be in order.
(iii) Afer downloading click on install apps give i superuser permission and Voila! CWM.
(iii) You should also see the log right in the middle of the apps to verify that the flash and push thingy worked correctly with no errors
(iii) Select Reboot to recovery or Turn the tab off and press power button+vol up and the recovery should open
YEAH! YOU NOW HAVE COMPLETE CONTROL OF YOUR TAB
(B)METHOD NOT TESTED BY ME
HTML:

(i) DOWNLOAD RK30GENERIC_CWM.zip from
HTML:
http://androtab.info/clockworkmod/rockchip/
(ii) Here are the different ways to flash this zip file
HTML:
http://androtab.info/clockworkmod/rockchip/install/
|CUSTOM ROM(s)|:-:
There is only one ROM which is worth flashing and even that might be slightly buggy..
Well, I don't recommend to flash a custom ROM here as they may have bugs like Wifi still if you want the following features
Auto Install Feature: This allows you to install apk's automatically on first boot, if you have the apk files located in a folder named autoinstall on your external SD card.
HTML:
http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.php?8910-Auto-APK-Install-Feature
Rooted with SuperSU
Debloated of all Lava bloatware
Google Play Store tweaks added to improve availability of apps
Init.d support
Busybox support
English language default (all other languages are still supported)
Boot screens by Tattman65
Flash Tool by Finless
Reboot app by Petrus
Here is Lava Xtron+ RileyROM 1.1
HTML:
http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.php?10688-Lava-Xtron-RileyROM-1-1
Complete flashing procedure in extreme detail is in the ROM zip file (it is a PDF file named first time user guide , very helpful)..Personally I have not flashed the ROM as I don't think it is worth the hassle and possibility of no Wifi...
PLEASE CLICK ON THANKS IF I HELPED YOU, IT REALLY MOTIVATES ME!:highfive:

Thank you.. I was waiting for a method to crack this tab.. Will comeback with result.

Ext4 support
Can somebody tell me if ext4 is supported or not, when i try link2 sd it says not supported but I am pretty sure that the system partition itself is Ext 4, (I'm the one who made the guide)

Try ext3. It will be supported.

Click to collapse
Well, I have tried it there are some problem in link2sd, but according to an nandroid the system and data are ext4 , I have set up everything in ext2 and would hate to do it all over again, is there a way to verify support of ext 3 or 4 acc to wiki, kernel above 2.6 support ext4 and the kernel here is 3.0... One more ting, when I tilt the tab, I think that something heavy is moving around inside slightly, probably battery should I ask for a replacement? I have 4-5 days remaining I bought from flipkart, I do have a complete SD and nandroid backup..
EDIT: in d/tracing events ext4 there is a file called enable and the value inside is zero should I change it to 1
I think I found out the culprit, the first partiton that I tried was ext2 so link2d created a script for that..now, when I try to use ext3 or 4 ..it still tries to use that same script..so I willl delete the script then try again...

Successfully Rooted..! Sorry for the delay..!

Well you are familiar with cwm or do you even have it installed, if you do then just go to install zip from sd card and select the zip file...secondly if you have a cwm nandroid backup (recommended) just go to backup and restore select resotre or restore from externel sd and then select the date of the required backup file then click restore..If you do have a cwm nandroid backup then it MUST work...if you don't even have the recovery then, ist step is to install it through THE guide then, try to do the ist (not recommended) option...

I have cwm installed on my tablet but i dont have stock rom of lava xtron plus

0. How To Flash Haipai Noble I9220 Firmware On YouTube By Angelobiz
1. Before upgrade to this firmware, remember to backup all your apps using My Backup or Titanium Backup so that we can restore those apps later.
Download ADB driver if you have not installed it ( Tested on Windows 7 )
You must have debug usb active in your phone. this driver need for use adb command example for root script or use MTP function.
2. Download firmware + flashing tool + drivers from here: May 7 Firmware With New System.img
OR Only Driver For Haipai I9220: Drivers
3. Unrar the firmware, turn off your phone and take the out battery, then plug the phone into your PC.
4. Install the driver from the firmware folder that you unrar before, then plug out the phone.
5. a) Go to Flashtool folder and run SPMultiPortFlashDownloadProject.exe
b) Choose Factory Database --> Setup data source file: "MTK_DATABASE.mdb"
c) Choose File --> Open download agent file: "MTK_AllInOne_DA.bin"
d) Choose Scatter File: "MT6575_Android_scatter_emmc.txt" in Firmware folder.
e) Choose the figure same as the picture: SmartPhone MPD.jpg, which can be found in Firmware folder.
6. Make sure the phone turned off and the battery was taken out. Click Start All and plug your phone into the PC then wait about 5-10 minutes for the flashing process to finish ( Write OK ! ).
7. After it is done, we are good to change the IMEI. However, before that try to turn on the phone to see whether the phone is working or not.
8. If everything is ok, excepted IMEI was missing, download IMEI Changer Tool from here: IMEI Changer For Mtk6575
9. Unrar, install the program and run SN_STATION, which can be found on your desktop. Follow the instruction in the Chinese manual, but we only need to follow the picture in that manual.
The file "Modem Database" and "AP Database" is in firmware folder. You need to choose exactly the file that you see in the picture.
10. Write down two IMEIs on the back of your phone ( you need to take the battery out to see it ).
11. Again turn off your phone and take the battery out, then plug the phone into your PC, but this time we need to put the battery back in very quickly as soon as we see:
"COM port searching and preloader handshake ok" on SN Writer Log.
11. Wait until "Write Result Indicator" becomes green, then the IMEI has changed successfully.
OR you can try to change your IMEIs by using ZOPO IMEI ( Thanks to colouriste )
1. REMOVE SIM CARD(S) FIRST !
2. Check "Dual Imei"
3. Type in original IMEI #'s 1 & 2 and then
4. Click "Write"
Enjoy the new firmware with GPS working, wifi improved, front camera working, beautiful font and more...

If you are stuck at Booting Screen, please try those tips below ( For UPDATE 4 Only ): by zBeYuz :laugh:
1. Did you forget to extract your system.zip in firmware stock 05 June folder ?
I just found out earlier that I totally forgot about it .
Just extract that file you will get system.bin then delete system.zip and start to flash the firmware normally. ( Booting up will take about 3-5 minutes after it is done ).
If the phone is still stuck please consider the next step...
2. One more thing to take note, I am using different flash tool from angelobiz:
You can refer how to flash with this flash tool here:
0. Driver must be installed: http://www.4shared.com/rar/9onOaDl5/Driver_New.html? ( Please refer to UPDATE 2 for more details )

c) Choose File --> Open download agent file: "MTK_AllInOne_DA.bin"
d) Choose Scatter File: "MT6575_Android_scatter_emmc.txt" in Firmware folder.
e) Choose the figure same as the picture (Setting f/r SmartPhone MPD.jpg), which can be found in Firmware folder.
3. Make sure the phone turned off and the battery was taken out. Plug the phone into the PC and wait about 5-10 minutes for the flashing process to finish ( When you see it becomes green and states that "Write OK" ).

Tips + Tricks:
1. Thanks mikeysteele: "One thing I noticed after installing Set CPU is the kernel defaults to the Performance Governor. This means the CPU is always running at the maximum frequency so that might explain the poor battery life. I changed it to the On Demand governor and my battery life has improved."
2-a. Thanks angelobiz: For remove old, hidden driver you can see this: http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/504/how-to-uninstall-hidden-devices-drivers-and-services/
2-b. Thanks caviar44: This is a tool to remove old drivers: USBDeview v2.11. Just right click on driver instance and then choose "uninstall selected devices".

Hi I would like to update some information about this phone,
1. The resolution of the screen is 800x480.
2. The original battery with 2800mAH capacity is so so, normal usage about 1 -2 days. On the battery stated that the cell made in Japan, yet finished in China.
3. The phone comes with the case with Samsung logo on it, together with a screen protector (not really good).
4. Additional infomation:
a) The front camera is on the left hand side, which is quite bad, because the Galaxy Note's is on the right side.
b) 3.5mm audio port is very depth, I have no idea why, so normal headphone or earphone like Beats Monster,for example, will be loose. But we still can use the one comes with the phone.
c) Camera is 8Mp and the picture looks quite nice if there is enough light.
d) It runs very smooth without any issues.
e) There is no touch pen.
f) Android 4.0.3 without Google Play or Market, Youtube, Google Map.
g) The camera sometime has a noise, like tac tac, when the apps need to use it ?!
At the end ? I still like it and I will try to update other good and bad points later if I can find any
*Update on 17/05/12*
h) After a long usage, the phone using original rom sometime can't rotate the screen even the "auto rotate option" was on.
--> Solution: Remove the battery and put in back in 30s, the phone will be functional as normal.

I received this same device today. It is not dual core, see: http://dualsim-smartphone.com/img/smartphone/i9220_mtk6575_dualsim_8.jpg
If any vendor claims it is so, what they are referring to is that it has both a 'normal' cpu plus a graphics chip. This is normal and its not the same as dual core!
Neither is the display qHD, as that would be 960x540. This device is 800x480. The display is... mediocre. I don't find the low density to be an issue, but a grainy texture is visible on light areas, e.g. the background in the Messaging app. Colour accuracy is also pretty bad: you get what you pay for.
FWIW I arrived here by googling DF-BPA-13 as I have the same issue. My temporary solution is to load apks onto the microsd on my old phone, then install those through "File Manager"
Thank you, guys. I will update my post above.
Btw, Does anybody hear anything about customised and rooted rom for this phone ?
To richardkemp, can you teach me how to recognize a dual-core phone ?
I thought all the mtk6575 phones were the dual-core phone.
Thanks in advanced.
@zbeyuz: The picture I linked above is from the link you provided in your first post. The first line of the results on the left hand screen shows "Number of cores: 1". Further the vendor correctly lists the chipset as the Mediatek MTK6575. Googling this might bring you (eventually!) to Mediatek's product page for this chipset. You can be sure that if it were actually dual core, the manufacturer would want to tell you about it: they mention no such thing.
Something I noticed while browsing chinese phone websites was that different sellers would provide different specifications for the same devices. Some would claim that a chip was dual core, by counting the presence of a separate main processor and graphics processor as if it was 'dual core'), and some would claim higher chip speed, e.g. 1GHz main processor + 500mhz graphics processor = 1.5GHz total. This is misleading and nothing more than a sales tactic.
It's a shame there's so much misinformation, the vendor I purchased my Haipad from marketed it as having an AMOLED screen, which it plainly doesn't.
As for ROMs, I'm gonna get stuck in to some ROM cooking once my exams are over, but that won't be for another month. In the mean time, I sure would appreciate any tips on getting root. To save anyone checking, SuperOneClick doesn't work.
Additional info on the device:
- Screen is capable of detecting 5 simultaneous multitouch points
- (In the UK at least) Network location does not work. Google maps cannot find my location from cell towers, or from my Wifi. GPS does work however.
- My device came without Android market installed, and as mentioned above, does not work once it is installed.
- Either the proximity sensor or the light sensor (top left by the front camera) flashes faint red constantly when the screen is on. Not a big issue but slightly distracting. The values reported by the prox sensor are just 0 and 1, no middle ground.
- The light sensor reports only 3 light levels: 160, 1200 and 2600. This makes automatic backlight pretty rubbish.
- The speed of the phone is fine - I will add some benchmarks later. Right now it's a pain in the butt since I can't get the benchmark apps from the market.
- WiFi signal seems weaker than I'm used to - my reference devices are my desktop PC, my Fujitsu ST5112 Win7 tablet, my (retired) HTC Desire, and my girl's Samsung Galaxy Y Pro and Asus Win7 Ultrabook. These all received moderate to good WiFi signal in my room from my WNDR3700 N router, all capable of streaming video at this distance. The Haipad on the other hand shows weak signal in the notification bar, and subjectively it is much slower than when it is downstairs nearer the router, a bit of a disappointment here.
- Lots of info on the device is available by starting the "EngineerMode" activity belonging to the "EngineerMode" package. This can be done by making a homescreen shortcut with a third party launcher (eg Nova), and choosing to add an activity shortcut. I recommend only look, don't modify any settings in case you break something!
- I don't know if it's just me but I find the overscroll elasticity way too 'loose'. If I flick a list hard and it hits the end, it takes a long time for the list to settle into the correct position. I look forward to being able to tweak this...
- The battery seems to charge quite slowly. I know it's large so getting to full charge would take longer than with a standard battery, but I am used to large batteies - I used a 2200mAh battery in my HTC Desire and I'm pretty sure it charged faster (using the same charger). Of course a factor in this will be that I have had the device active with the screen on almost constantly, so a lot of power is being diverted to that.
- My phone is capable of connecting to my network (t-mobile)'s proper 3G service, but seems to sometimes choose a 2G service instead, even when there is just as good 3G signal.
Will update this with more as I think of them.
zbeyuz, you say your camera is on the left, I presume you mean the front camera? the main/rear camera is right in the middle.
@richardkemp: Thank you for your quick reply. I did mean the camera in the front is on the left. The main camera is right in the middle, yes.
However, last time, when I tried to put on the Galaxy Note's case, the main camera didn't fit in the right position of the case. Maybe, because the screen was bigger than the real Galaxy Note's, I think ?
Update: The default browser of phone ran quite fast even there was a low wireless signal, but the browser didn't have back and forward button, is that right ?

This is from my seller and it works.
1.Please download root file on
www.t-kstore.com/4.0root.rar
2.Go to*setting-developer options-click USB debugging
3.Connect the phone with computer,turn on usb device.
4.Click the file you download from the link TPSparkyRoot.bat*
5.Your phone will restart first time,after the phone start finish(until you see the unlock),click enter in the window of TPSparkyRoot.bat.
6.The phone will restart second time,still the same as first time we did.Then start third time,same as we did in last two*times.Click enter,then phone was rooted.
7.You will see two more app was installed in your phone,that mean root phone successfully.
After successfully rooted, it will install rootexplorer.apk Chinese version which is rather useless for installing Market because it's all in Chinese. You should be able to find Filexpert.apk from the web, and install it.
Here is how to install Google Play Store:
1. Download Vending.apk from http://downloads.androidadvices.com/apks/Vending.3.3.12.apk
2. copy Vending.apk to \system\app\ folder in your phone by using Filexpert in RW mode
3. change permission of Vending.apk file to Read/Write for Owner; Read for others
4. shutdown your phone.
5. switch on your phone, you will see Google Play Store app, and enjoy!
Did anyone mange to get GPS working ? I tried with Google Maps, but fail.
Thanks a bunch bthoven. I took the liberty of tidying up the script a bit, and including the latest Google Play Store and an English root file manager (Filexpert, as you suggested).
I put it on mediafire: http://www.mediafire.com/?qnmvebaa3k8usjw
Same instructions as before, just extract the archive and run TPSparkyRoot.bat with your phone connected by usb cable, and USB debugging mode enabled. If you wish you can disable USB debugging mode once this process is done.
Beware that the play store I included is the mod version from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1582422, to allow you to access apps without region restrictions. In future we can properly set the phone's region in build.prop should remove the need for this temporary fix. That's for another day..

Motorola Fire XT316/XT311/XT317/XT530/XT531/XT532 - All About It

Hello Fire owners!
I open this thread to keep all things of Fire together, only one thread, everything here.
So here we go:
THIS THREAD IS FOR MOTOROLA XT311/XT316/XT317, XT530/XT531, XT532 AND XT611 (aka SMARTFLIP) ONLY. IF YOU HAVE A SIMILAR THREAD, PLEASE PM ME AND PASS ME YOUR POST. LET'S KEEP XDA ORGANIZED!
CWM FOR FIRE XT XT530/XT532, SPICE XT XT531, FIRE XT311, SPICE KEY XT316 OFFICIALLY LAUNCHED
This thread was focused in the 2nd-Init for XT31X and XT530, 531 and 532. For almost six months, we worked patientlly to get the CWM working on our devices. The wait for CWM is OFFICIALLY OVER. In a couple days ago, our friend aweosomeabhijeet found a way to run CWM on Gingerbread. The tutorial (made by himself) will be posted NOW:
Hey Guys
All your wait is over.
Here I'll tell you how to get CWM for Moto Fire XT.
Disclaimer : I'm not responsible for any damage to your phone. I have tried it and finished successfully.
Try only if you know little bit about android.
This is beta version. However, a dev is working on not using a PC to reboot back into system, and is trying to make the installation simplified.
Lot of thanks to andrewidya
Required things
1. Rooted XT
2. Pc
Download these things on your phone:
1. Terminal emulator
2. Busybox(Open it and install)
3. Root browser
4. Pimp my Rom
5. ES file explorer
You can find all of them in the Play Store.
If you have done with it download the attachment.
Now main work.
It is not easy though but I think everyone can do it.
Steps:
1. Extract the attachment and copy it to your sdcard
2. Mount /system as RW.
3. Open Root Browser and copy bootmenu folder from sdcard/XT530 and paste it in /system.
4. Open Pimp My Rom and Add universal init.d support.
5.Create 97bootmenu manually.(For this using ES file explorer is recommended)
Steps:
a.Open /system/etc/init.d
b. Create a file, name it 97bootmenu.
c. Open the file as text
Type:
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
stop
exec /system/bootmenu/binary/bootmenu
d.save the file
6. Change permissions of 97bootmenu to rwx r-- r--
7. Reboot your phone.
Now your phone will start at bootmenu.
Select Recovery>Custom Recovery
PS: If you want to get back the phone to boot normally. Just connect it to PC, open CMD and type
cd path-to-adb.exe
adb shell
rm -R /system/etc/init.d/97bootmenu
exit
adb reboot
I succeeded here's the video:
http://youtu.be/OyHwMqkBArk
Sorry for poor camera quality.
Thanks to all the members.
Special Thanks to:
Gentrylamp for creating bootmenu.
7amdoun for his great knowledge and modding bootmenu for XT530.
andrewidya for correcting me at every point.
Mazen.kh for everything he did.
Mr.Indigo for giving us hopes.
And all other members whom I forgot to mention here.

ROOTING & UNROOTING
You will follow this tutorial if you have 2.3.5 version of Android:
Downloads:
Here are the apps/files needed for Rooting -
1. SuperOneClick 2.3.3.0
2. SUT LR 1.8.2 (Doesn't seem to be working on 64-bit systems)
3. FXX_PR3_NV.xml and NvDefinition.xml [ATTACHED]
Before Rooting:
Prepare your phone by doing the following:
- Go to Settings > Applications > CHECK "Unknown Sources"
- Go to Settings > Applications > Developer > CHECK "USB Debugging" and "Stay Awake"
- Connect your phone via USB, when prompted DO NOT select USB Mass Storage.
- Extract FXX_PR3_NV.xml and NvDefinition.xml from the attached zip file in to a folder
- Now, install SUT LR, run the app
- Select the FXX_PR3_NV.xml [ensure NvDefinition.xml is also in the same folder as FXX_PR3_NV.xml]
- Your phone will restart.
It does NOT erase anything on the phone, since it only patches the ROM.
Rooting:
After the phone restarts, open SuperOneClick and select root. It will take less than a minute to finish.

about CG2.smg
Hey man I'm interested in the thread and i can help you extracting the CG2.smg
Here you are my tut. [for windows] it worked for me
1- unrar the file in the attachments
2- make sure that your file is named to 'CG2.smg' without quotes for sure, and in the same folder..
3- just run the .bat and wait for cmd to finish the job then you will find a folder called 'CG2-extracted' in the same place you extracted my .rar file
Note: you will find in the folder called 'CG2-extracted' some mbn files, systemsec.mbn is the /system folder in the xt311/xt316
extract it easily using unyaffs like a system.img file, if you need help in this PM me. i can help you extracting systemsec.mbn only, i dunno about other files also to repack systemsec.mbn you'll need mkyaffs and i think it's usable on ubuntu only and i can't help you with it
sorry for long reply but press thanks if i helped.

Anytime Sir ! I just want to help in anyway getting this device better, By the way here's a list of useless applications so far !
- 7x27_FQC.apk
- Arabware.apk < 7 megabytes and useless
- Wifipowersavingmode.apk < I think it drains the battery faster -.-
- i also removed all motoswitch APKs, And installed go launcher instead in the system. And removed pre-installed live wallpapers
Also if you have errors like "preparing sd card - checking for errors" in the status bar you can delete system/bin/fsck_msdos since i deleted i get no errors for my partitioned sd card
Q/Request: Do you know how can i customize Notify led ? Like changing color and speed ? also it doesn't work with whatsapp!
Thanks anyway ! Ps. led works by Notifyled.apk.. of course you know xD
And Yeah, i found some srs files also, time ago, i thought it would be awesome to have a panel for it ! but maybe it's the normal speakers at the back and it's drivers..

Yeah, Motorola lock the bootloader, locks the customization and much more. We need a CWM. FASTER!
Edit: before 2.3 versions, Motorola odexed the roms. All of the files were odexed. But Motorola now deodexed everything. So it will be easier.
And i think we can port the CWM from XT300. So, let's try!

I didn't know that there was cwm for xt300, but i think, if there is cwm for xt530/xt531/xt532 it'd be easier to port, since xt53X is to close to our xt311/xt316 and it also have 2.3.5 while xt300 2.1 only
Edit: i think xt311/xt316 users will never have custom recoveries/roms unless the bootloader is unlocked, and it'll be so hard to unlock such bootloader since the phone is not popular

Some guys tried to do an 2ndInit to maybe try to get CWM work. But didn't worked. A file from the battery (when you turn off the phone and conntect the charger, the big battery icon) was missing. But works without this file.
AND I FOUND WHERE WE CAN ACTIVATE SRS! Is in cda.prop, it's configured to false.
So what happens if i changed the value to true ?
i don't think cda props apply actually i tried to change the value of lock screen support rotation to true and nothing changed.
And Yup i read something about that battery icon too but i didn't understand fully how does that relate to unlocking bootloader
i think the bootloader must get hacked easily since as i see it's a common bootloader in many fones for ex. xt530 xt531 xt532 xt300 xt311 xt316 xt317 or am i wrong ?
If i can test the ROM in my computer (i don't know how to do it), we see if works. And Bootloader it's not the same for every phone series. XT300 executes 2.1 WITH UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER. And XT316 with 2.3.5 WITH THE LOCKED Bootloader.
The SRS file is in the attachments. Just take a look on the 'st line:
BLOCK... I understand that is blocked.
And the battery icon maybe is on a apk or anywhere. We might look better.
EDIT:
I googled around and i found a thread that talks about CG2.smg. They tried to do the same what i doing, and didn't finish very well. The phone was bricked, but they use some files, replace and the ROM was going on very well.

i actually didn't understand what you said in the "EDIT" but i read that even with a locked bootloader we can have a custom rom, but not a custom kernel right ?
so you can recompress the edited cg2.smg files and re sbf it again after customizing it or am i saying meaningless words ?

OK. I will explain the edit first.
They edit the systemsec.mbn, repack the mbn and repack everything. but they've got an error. Then, the phone was bricked and RSD doesn't saw the phone.
A custom kernel will be pretty great, but we have to unlock the bootloader 1st.

This is cda.prop right?
it has some tweaks like build.prop, if you tried to change the mobile model that appears to the market from build.prop it won't work, but if you change it from cda.prop it will work also it have some other tweaks that i actually don't know what's it's use
And Don't Forget Thanks Button ^^
XT316 bricked
Hello guys, sorry if this is not the best place to post a problem but, this is the only one active discussion about XT316 that i have found, i have this phone with Brazil Claro stock 2.3.3 Gingerbread Android installed, then i have installed the ChainFire3D hoping to have better experience with some games...
But i got a bricked phone... when powering on, the phone shows only the Motorola logo, then a black screen with no response, and continous reboot
I started the phone in recovery mode and tryed to perform a Factory Recover, but no sucess, same with Wipe Cache Partition option, so, what is left to do now is my question...

OK got the Karbonn A15 yesterday dubbed as a Ninja Killer by some was able to root it today
here are the steps
the driver files are included on the phone internal card called pcdrivers.zip. you can connect the usb mount the internal usb storage and copy the file to your pc. if you face any problems you can download the file from here
1. Enable USB Debugging - Under SETTINGS - DEVELOPER OPTIONS

IMP NOTE : if you pc is saying "PRESS ANY KEY" note if your phone is on or rebooting....
if it is Rebooting, wait for it to start before pressing a key
5. After a couple of boots the phone will be rooted
6. verify that the Root is complete by observing a "Superuser" shortcut in the application list
good luck

check out http://mobiles.pricedekho.com/mobiles/karbonn/a15-price-pmk5s.html#Specifications
which may not list the RAM etc
RAM=512
ROM=512 ?
INTERNAL=2.5 G ? (>2G will verify on my device later )
the above listing says FM =No however there is a preinstalled FM app so FM must be present - never use it so not checked - will check later
the G- Sensor is off by a lot on my piece - orientation works (can it be calibrated ?)
Display 4" @ 480x800
overall a very nice piece at Rs 5900

- as i said above i am very new to all this will have to study the whole thing a little - no expections for a custom rom from my side for quite some time
but the handset is very new in the market and rooting is the first step - i am sure people more knowledgable will provide some insight
overall Karbonn A15 seems a bargain ICS handset at this price.- no complaints so far....

i have been using it for only 2 days. on the first day it seemed that battery drained really fast but the next day it was better i would be able to give a better feedback in a few days.
all in all it seems the battery will last at least one day with heavy usage and around 2 days for someone like me (very low usage)
Hey.. can you please tell me about the display quality? Also, does it support 720x576 or 720x480 playback? I know it does not play 720p files but if it can play 576p files then I'll buy it..
Thanks!

1. Not necessary if you don't intended to tweak system files, gain system access permission,
2. All Android devices are rootable, but usually by default don't have root access
3. Yes warranty voided while rooting but you can unroot again
Sent from my ST21i
nevermind.. I bought it anyway.. found a deal which was too good to resist will root it as soon as I get my hands on it! Is it possible for you to post an unrooting guide as well? (just in case the phone needs to be taken to a service centre)
Thanks for the update and waiting for your better feedback in few days on battery backup and for how much you bought it?
the handset is available for 4700rs on homeshop18 website. please tell me if there is any problem with the device as i would like to order it now
Deal is too tempting

smoothness of the phone is excellent, did not find any lag while operating the phone, or while testing using Temple Run. the movement is very smooth. volume is good no problem there.
the only thing that is worth mentioning is that the Gravity sensor is off in my phone - meaning if i keep the phone on a flat surface it detects that the phone is leaning to the left and a little top. is this a calibratable thing in the settings or such ?

[RECOVERY] Clockworkmod Recovery for ZTE V967S

DISCLAIMER:
Rooting your phone and using custom Recoveries and ROMS have risks and may result in bricking your device, and has nothing to do with Google or the device manufacturers. In case of any mishap I am not responsible if you brick/ruin your phone in any way.
Basic computer skills are required and minimal knowledges about phones and phones utilities too.
Make sure that whatever you do, you are doing it at your own responsibility.
I built from source a CWM Recovery, version 6.0.4.4 adapted by me to build in cm-10.1 environment, for ZTE V967S phone. I have to say Thank you to C3C076 for his help. He was kind to help me to figure out how to tweak building source for recovery, to obtain a compatible recovery. So, you should thank him, or even better to donate to him if you can. Now I improved the MTK compatibility, I fixed restore old recovery issue.
The CWM 6.0.4.4 recovery can be downloaded from downloads section. If you care enough, and you like what I did, after download just hit the Thanks button. If you use it or port it and ask other to hit Thanks for you, do the same here to show respect for my work.​It is fully functional: it works for flash zip, to wipe, mount (both internal and external sdcard), backup, restore, format to factory from phone settings menu, apply updates from stock ROM, etc.​If you share my compiled recovery on other sites or forums, please give proper credits for it!
CREDITS and THANKS
C3C076 for his help on tweaking recovery source.
bgcngm for his wonderful tool for unpacking and repacking img.
rua1 for MTK Droid Root & Tools.
dsixda for his Android Kitchen.
Cyanogenmod Team for their wonderful project.
Koushik for creating Clockworkmod Recovery and for constant improvement of it.
-- You really should thank to all of these guys or if you can to donate to them, because without their hard and fine work, we couldn't enjoy our phones as we should.
If you choose to use these, you are doing that on your own risk, and I can not be held responsible for any damage you made to your phone.
1. SPFlashTool backup ROM
A SPFlashTool prepared backup from last stock version 1.0.0 - 27.08.2013 for NonChina Market, if you need to unbrick your phone, or if you want to revert to stock. This version has English as default, and also include Chinese and Russian. It has root and custom CWM, otherwise is untouched. You have to flash this one with SPFlashTools. The scatter file is included.
3. A version prepared from last LewaOS v5 - only English - LewaMax v2.
Rooted, optimized, gapps included. The ROM will not change your recovery.
INSTALL INSTRUCTION:
Many people have problems with force closed processes because they don't flash a new ROM properly.
- In recovery, mount USB Mass storage and delete from sdcard these folders:
.android_secure
Android
LOSTDIR
- then back in recovery do a wipe all data/factory reset in CWM or Pre-Flash wipe in COT
- in CWM in advanced menu wipe Dalvik cache / in COT in storage management menu wipe Dalvik cache
- Now flash the ROM zip.
ATTENTION:
For extending data partition please refer to this source. It's better than my previous modd and I think it's safer. Thank you meteos.But, I recommend you to use top 2.5 Gb data partition size, and let remaining 237 Mb for sdcard failure situations.​
Here you will find MTKDroidTools of rua1's.

1. A SPFlashTool prepared backup from last stock version 1.0.5, if you need to unbrick your phone, or if you want to revert to stock. It has only root, otherwise is untouched. I removed from that the preloader, since is a high risk to damage your phone using that. But if someone need it I will send him private. You have to flash this one with SPFlashTools. The scatter file is included.
2. An optimized ROM, prepared from 1.0.5 stock version, ZTE V967S ROM Max Flavour v-2. Slimed, odexed (about 60Mb apps on data usage), zipaligned, busybox, debloated, multilingual (sort of), and some other things. I replaced the Launcher with SOLOLauncher because is lighter (only 5-6 Mb instead of 20) and have more features. I've tested it and it works flawless. You should flash it with CWM Recovery.
3. Will come a version prepared from last LewaOS v5 for MIUI fans.

Hi Carliv, thank you very much for your rom. I am trying it and I am quite happy with that. I am only experiencing some problem with GPS: in some cases I was not able to switch on or switch off the GPS. Another thing that looks a little bit strange is that in YGPS -> Information the "chip version" is "UNKNOWN". With the sock ROM I am sure that the information about the chip version was displayed (MTK_GPS_.....). Have you the same issue?
Ciao.

No, I haven't any problem with GPS, and if you check GPS in YGPS with GPS switched ON it will show you chip version.
I don' understand where you can't swith on/off GPS: in quickpanel toggles, in settings locations... You don't say that. So, please, be more specific.
When I need GPS, I turn it ON, and it connects in about 3 sec. if I'm outside, or maybe 10 if I'm inside near a window.
Thanks for appreciations.
I'll try to help you if you give me more informations.
--------------------------later edit------------------
One other thing, I noticed that if you use scheduled power off/on, you have to manualy restart the phone after self turning on, because the WIFI and GPS doesn't work properly... I don't know why, and I think this is a bug in 1.0.5 version.
hello ,
thanks for your support in our phone ZTE V967S
i have bought the phone from minideal.net with 1.0.3 MULTILANGUAGE, rooted and google play store version and chinese CWM, but i want to install 1.0.5 version
and ENGLISH cwm. does your 1.0.5 version support full GREEK language?
how to install CWM Recovery 6.0.3.5??
you gave us the scatter file, the usb drivers for ZTE and the recover.img.
but HOW to use them? give us full details
As i can understand with SLIM version you do not have Google Play Store installed.
right?
i want to install SLIM version to have battery improvement but i am a little afraid if sth goes wrong (someone says that the GPS is not
working perfectly and maybe some important things are missing) what is your opinion for SLIM version in general? will i have a problem if i install SLIM
compared with FULL?
also i want the 5GB userdata partition.. how to manage that?
maybe i need first flash 2.5GB ZTE V967S P188F07 Max_v2
and then flash again Extend2_5GBUserData.zip
RIGHT?

You're welcome!
Now, let's see:
1. No ROM is full multilanguage, except the case that all apps have multilanguage support. Otherwise, my version is as much multilanguage as minideal version from what I've seen - I ported translations from a Lenovo P770 because is very much similar. You will have Greek just like in minideal version.
We can try togheter to make a better translation if other users want that; I can post here archives with xml files that have to be translated, you make translations, post here back and I could integrate them in a ROM. That way we can translate even SystemUI, which now isn't.
2. To install CWM the easy way is with SPFlashTools - all you need is the scatter and recovery.img. Of course, you have to install proper drivers before - you can find them in first post. How to use SPFlashTools I can't reproduce here because there are several guides on forum, here is one of them. Just one thing: if you find hard to enter the phone in bootloader, just remove the battery and connect the phone to computer without battery - it will enter in bootloader automate.
3. I don't have gapps in my phone SLIM ROM, but version posted to download has, because many of you use them - I don't. The GPS is working perfect for me, the only bug I found untill now, and don't think is related to my work, but to original release, is that if you use Scheduled power on & off, after phone starts from sleep you have to reboot manualy, otherwise Wifi and GPS won't work correctly. I hope they'll solve that in a next release like they did with camera flash. But, overall slim or full version shares the same drivers, modules and libraries, and only difference is in installed apps. The full version has stock launcher and weather, and live wallpapers, etc. The slim version don't have those things.
4. You can't use a 5GB userdata partition because the entire phone memory is 4GB. You can expand userdata to max. 2.7GB, but I provided a solution for 2.5, because in case o SDCard failure on mount/unmount or other event, the phone will use those 270 MB from internal storage to function properly until you fix sdcard, without losing data. There are some solutions to expand data partition on sdcard, but I didn't tried them and I can't say you how that works. My ROM with 2.5 GB support will repartition userdata for you during install, and when the phone boots up you will see internal storage 2.5 GB instead of 1GB.
Ok, That covers all your concerns. Thank you for appreciations.
1. for Greek Language i think i am ok... as i can understand you import multilanguage support from Lenovo P770. how minideal managed to have Multilanguage support for 1.0.3 ?
did they import from another phone too?
2. another solution to install English CWM recovery is with Mobileuncle MTK Tools. do you agree? but thanks for your help for SPFlashTools.
ZTE USB Driver.zip ,MT6589 drivers.zip, MT6589 USB VCOM drivers.7z. which of the 3 drivers to install in order my PC to recognize my

Are we sure that the problem with WIFI and GPS not working correctly after phone starts from sleep (Scheduled power on & off) is a problem
of ORIGINAL version? maybe it is sth eith your rom.... can someone confirm that?
4. what is the purpose of Extend2_5GBUserData.zip ???
before i had Xperia Sole . because the internal available memory for installed apps and games was about 4 GB some people developed a

You're welcome!
Now, let's see:
1. No ROM is full multilanguage, except the case that all apps have multilanguage support. Otherwise, my version is as much multilanguage as minideal version from what I've seen - I ported translations from a Lenovo P770 because is very much similar. You will have Greek just like in minideal version.
We can try togheter to make a better translation if other users want that; I can post here archives with xml files that have to be translated, you make translations, post here back and I could integrate them in a ROM. That way we can translate even SystemUI, which now isn't.
2. To install CWM the easy way is with SPFlashTools - all you need is the scatter and recovery.img. Of course, you have to install proper drivers before - you can find them in first post. How to use SPFlashTools I can't reproduce here because there are several guides on forum, here is one of them. Just one thing: if you find hard to enter the phone in bootloader, just remove the battery and connect the phone to computer without battery - it will enter in bootloader automate.
3. I don't have gapps in my phone SLIM ROM, but version posted to download has, because many of you use them - I don't. The GPS is working perfect for me, the only bug I found untill now, and don't think is related to my work, but to original release, is that if you use Scheduled power on & off, after phone starts from sleep you have to reboot manualy, otherwise Wifi and GPS won't work correctly. I hope they'll solve that in a next release like they did with camera flash. But, overall slim or full version shares the same drivers, modules and libraries, and only difference is in installed apps. The full version has stock launcher and weather, and live wallpapers, etc. The slim version don't have those things.

I don't know how minideal got their translation, maybe they did it, it's not that hard, there are 4 files to translate to every language, and other 2 if you want SystemUI too, but you have to know a lot of foreign languages. That's the reason I said we can make a better translation, but everyone have to translate from English to his language.
Yes, you can install recovery with MobileUncle but you have to be rooted and to have MobileUncle installed. The way I presented works even for untouched stock ROM. Don't matter which order you install drivers. Install them all one by one, and connect phone in normal boot and wait for windows to install previous drivers for the new device, then connect phone in bootloader and wait again for windows to install necesary drivers.
The slim version posted here is with gapps included, you don't have to do anything for that - I thought I made myself clear. The version without gapps I kept it for me, I didn't share it. Most people want gapps and there was no reason to upload a version without them. No, I don't think that refresh for GPS and wifi has anything to do with my intervention, it's related to the way the phone enter to sleep and wake up, because is not completely shut down. My guess is that on wake up, not all modules are started properly, and that's the reason a phone restart solve the problem: when Android starts all modules are loaded correctly.
The purpose of Extend2_5GBUserData.zip is, as I said in that post, that people who don't want to install any of my ROM with 2.5GB support, to achieve an extended partition while they keep their ROM: minideal, stock original, or others not shared by me.
I know about that thing with extend to sdcard, but I didn't tried yet, and from what I've seen compiling recovery, for this phone you need to unpack, repack recovery.img and boot.img too, to modify fstab, not only that from etc folder. So, it's a little bit more complicated. Some people made some scripts for that for this kind of phones but for different cpu. I can't help you with this matter, because I'm not interested in it. For me 2.5GB of internal memory is more than enough.
LewaOS v5 is a different framework, more like MIUI, but with different launcher type. I did a debloated version, because LewaOS is mainly for China, and they have a lot of chinese apps. The people that download it they know what is. I used to like it, but now, the ZTE ROM, optimized please me more.
thanks for your help. I am really appreciate this. so if I want to extend my internal storage to 2,5 GB directly to minideal modded rom version I need to flash Extend2_5GBUserData.zip via CWM. right? there is no need to install first your modded version.
how to connect my phone in bootlader mode???
so you propose me to install lite version. I will give a try when my phone come to my hands!!!
one more question maybe not suitable for this thread but I wll ask you. do you know to propose me good screen protectors and slim caces for ZTE V967s? I heard that V987 quad uses the same protectors and caces with V967s. is it true?

Ok.
I don't use any screen protector. The screen is Gorilla Glass and you can't scratch it even if you want. Actually I can't find that info now, I've read that ZTE support answer that to a user. On official description is an IPS screen. But seems to be very hard. I've tested it with door key, really :good:
And the case... Mine came with some sillicone cheep case, I don't like it. I don't know if the case from v987 fits, because I know that v987 is 0.7mm thinner.
so you have this phone and you bought it from minideal.net. right?
you make me happy. but I am not sure for Gorilla Glass. the specifications does not mention that. and Greek guys say that is normal glass not Gorilla. are you sure for that? if you use your nails it will not scratch the screen.
also you have not answered me for Extend2_5GBUserData.zip
can I flash it directly to minideal modded version or is it necessary to flash your rom first?
about a slim case fitted exactly to our phone do you have sth in your mind to buy ?
also how do you find the photo and video quality of the camera?
thanks for all. you are great

Ok, I modified that to official infos, IPS screen. I've read that in an email support answer from ZTE, but I can't find now the source.
About Extended 2.5 GB I already told you two times, you can use it with any ROM, or to be specific: you can flash it on your minideal ROM.

The same steps for those who want only to increase userdata partition, without installing any of my ROM. But you have to download Extend2_5GBUserData.zip from attachments....

I don't know any case because I don't use one, but I read somewhere, I don't remember where, about a leather case for it. I don't know more.
The camera is average, but I didn't expect much from it, I have a DSLR camera for photos.
Cheers.
sorry my friend. just wanted to be sure !!!! sorry if you repeat some things twice for me.
in what way do u extend the data size up to 2,5 gb ? is it dangerous for the phone or does it has any effect to the performance and speed of the phone?
about the screen I have read in the official specifications that it is IPS and not Gorilla glass.
but first as you said somewhere read that it is Gorilla. and secondly you tried with your nails and key to scratch the screen without damages. if the screnn was just IPS this would never happened. what to say?????
I am a little sad with the picture quality!!! never mind.

Well, the method for repartitioning is presented here by meteos. You just need to modify in hex editor some values for Extended Boot Records EBR1 and EBR2. It's not dangerous if you don't make mistakes and enter some values that extend userdata more than 2.7 GB, and that wipe some portion of primary partition. In that case you will have a bricked phone and you can repair it, only by reflashing entire ROM in SPFlashTool.
EBR is for logical partition (userdata, phone storage or internal sdcard) and MBR for primary partition (Boot, Recovery, System..).
My archives are safe, and I've tested both myself without any problem. I'm using now a slim ROM with 2.5GB userdata (internal memory).
You're welcome.
thanks for your help.
you are always helpfull.
if you have any news for new scripts which swap the internal memory with our external SD card memory just inform us..
did you try to play heavy games? does the phone play them smoothly?
if you increase the storage to 2,5 gb what do you choose in storage option : auto , sd or internal storage?
a greek friend of me tried your SLIM rom. he said it is very LIGHT and FAST. But he has problem to select GREEK keyboard. he selects greek keyboard but the choice can not be saved. please try to fix this!!!

Ok, sorry for late answer. I was busy to update recovery to 6.0.3.6 version.
Now, I don't have time to play games, I never installed one in my phone, so.. I don't know how they work in it.
The increased storage is for memory (if you install heavy apps which needs a lot of memory, they use that as virtual memory). I select always sdcard in storage options as default.
I don't know why your friend has trouble to set greek keyboard. I selected it, test it, reboot phone - still there. To select: Settings - Language & Input - KEYBOARD & INPUT METHODS - Android keyboard settings - select only languages you use and deselect others - go back - Default - select Greek - exit - done.
I know it's light and fast, I wanted to be.

Hlo Dear,
The phone is looks good and the screen quality is also impressive ( resolution 1280X720 ), the phone is very slim and light weight and but the battery backup is quite low during 3G uses , 8 mp rear camera with dual flash is also impressive and front camera (5 mp) with flash is great for selfies , supports HD recording.
You can play HD videos without using any third party app.
Overall the phone is best in this price range compared to others.
Thanks

Runtime Query
So I got this phone and was browsing for some root options already, in a recent post online I read that the phone has an option to switch to 'ART Runtime' instead of Dalvik. The ART Runtime is fast indeed.
My question is whether, if I use ART Runtime, will it be of any hindrance to the rooting?

You can always use art with out any hesitation
But in our stock ROM lava has not even provided a single customisation ....so ultimately for time being we have to depend on x-posed framework and modules which is incomparable with art
And also dome 3rd party applications are not fully art compatible so if we need customisation we need to stay in dalvik
If we don't need customisation we can safely stay in Art ...

Hi mohit
In rooting process generally 2 files are copied to system ie su binary to system/xbin
And a root controller application
If you unroot the all will 1st delete su binary and and apk get uninstalled itself
