[DISCUSSION][GUIDE][PORT][ROM] Alcatel One Touch 4030 S'Pop/Glory 2 Development

This thread is for discussion for the development of this device. All interested devs are very welcome to join and help.
I started working on this device since I got it day 1 on March 11, 2013. Slowly, I progressed to every step in learning more about this device. Since then, many have joined finding ways to make this device better.
UPDATE:
This thread is old and very few to none uses this device anymore. I will leave this thread here for your reference.
All of the developments of this device will still be posted here so always keep in touch with this thread for great news.
Cheers! :good:

Unbrick theory...
trying the one touch upgrade utility. it wipes all data in phone and installs a fresh and latest ROM for the device. i guess this will also fix a bricked device somehow.
after this i will try to root it again using MTK tools and ap flash tools with a different idea in my mind... hope it works this time...
[EDIT] UNBRICK METHOD CONFIRMED WORKING!!!

One touch Upgrade
Hello there I'm a total noob in rooting and unlocking bootloads. I just got the same phone as my first android phone and wondered how to root it and I end up here. Now I'm asking how did you get the one touch upgrade software. I've searched the whole alcatel website but I keep getting on the FAQ page. Would you be so kind to put up the link for the software because I kinda bricked my phone here. I was also wondering what speed did you use during your Bin4ry script root attempt? Normal or Special? Keep doing a good job. Thanks for having the time to look for ways to root this phone.

I tried the normal mode as Bin4ry said that the others might brick the phone it it wasn't the right model. did you brick it using the srcipt? any way. still trying to root it and finding help from rua1 that has a great knowledge in MTK phones...
here's the link of the upgrade utiliuty... just install it and choose alcatel 4030 (if your phone is s'pop) then power of the phone remove the battery and follow the instructions on PC and wait till it says plug the phone while powered off.. plug the usb (without battery) then wait for it to detect the device. when it loads, put the battery back and wait for it to download the firmware.. it will take hours to download it.. it's about 2+gigs... good luck on unbricking.. hope it works...

Phone unbricked
Many thanks for the software. My phone is now back to stock rom. for the Bin4ry I also tried Normal because I thought it was for tabs only. So MTK is the only course of action? Any news on fixing the 2 point horizontal bug? and the alcatel FAQ says there's this TCL calibration that you can activate to you know "calibrate" the touch screen. Do you also get the problem where in the stock alarm app alarms but you can't dismiss it ( I set it to crazy mode ) where you need to press 3 buttons to dismiss but still won't stop I really need to pull the battery out. Help please Thanks in advance.

Great. So my theory really worked. Glad you unbricked it. I'm getting closer to rooting it. Just having problems flashing the cwm. Ones I managed to flash it, rooting may be successful. I use Mtk tools and flash tools and get help from rua1. Didn't use my alarm before so i'm not sure about the bug. Maybe you don't have to set it in crazy mode..

I tried to set the alarm in crazy mode and everything works fine. Just dismiss, unlock, and tap the three buttons with numbers and your done..

Rooted, finally!!
I finally rooted the alcatel spop. I will make a guide maybe later how I did it...

Disclaimer: Your warranty is now void. You do this in your own risk. I do not take any responsibility to your device. This will definitely brick your device which is normal but follow the right instructions to make it work again.
Credits: This is tuts would not be possible without the help from the creator of MTKdroid tools, rua1 from XDA Developers. Thank the guy for his wonderful tool. If you wanna know how I did it, go to his thread right here. I also wanna acknowledge The Solutor and rimmon1971's efforts for porting the TWRP to our device. You can find The Solutor's work here.
Requirements:
1. A windows based PC
2. MTK Droid Root & Tools & SP Flash Tool
3. Universal ADB driver
4. One Touch Upgrade S
5. Root script
6. Patience
7. Most important! Use your brain!
Important!
To make this work without errors, don't use other drivers available in the web. Just install One Touch Upgrade S first. It will install the USB VCOM preloader driver. It will be needed by the SPFT to detect the phone. Use the provided ADB driver for the MT65xx_android_phone. If ever you get stucked in an error and your device wont boot anymore, just use One Touch Upgrade and your phone will be as good as new...
Guide: CWM/TWRP recovery
1. Download MTK Droid Root & Tools & SP Flash Tools, ADB Drivers, One Touch Upgrade S, and the Root script. Extract them anywhere in your computer.
2.Install ADB driver.This step is now optional to get adb working. You can now skip to step 5 if you just want to get rooted with CWM/TWRP recovery installed.. In your phone, go to Settings>Development. Set to on and check USB debugging.

}
3. Connect device to PC. Driver will fail to install (thats normal). Install UniversalAdbDriverSetup6.msi
Note: in Windows 8, this will pop-up. do this:
4. After installing the Universal ADB driver, go to device manager of your computer. Follow the images as descirbed.
ADB commands should work now (if you have ADB installed) and you won't have any problems about MTK droid tool not detecting phone.
5. Be sure that you have already installed One Touch Upgrade S before this step. Open SP Flash tool and select the scatter file by clicking on the Scatter-loading button.
6. UNCHECK BOOT and leave RECOVERY checked. Disregard what is on the photo. There's are reports that the latest firmwares are incompatible with the uploaded patched boot.img.
Note: By default, the CWM recovery will be selected in the SP Flash tool. If you want the fully working TWRP-recovery (I recomment this because CWM recovery is not fully functional), just click RECOVERY and replace it with this file.
7. Click Download button. Click yes on the download warning. Turn off phone, remove battery and connect the phone (without battery) and wait until SP Flash tool detects the phone and watch as it flash the image.
8. If everything passes without errors, unplug the phone, reinsert battery and boot to recovery by pressing power + volume up.
9. You should boot in CWM/TWRP recovery. We are ready to flash the Superuser app to gain root.
Guide: Superuser
You can use mtk droid root and tools here. Just plug in phone to pc while still in CWM recovery. Run mtk tools, wait to detect phone, click superuser, then build.prop, then delete china. Your done. Or use the guide below if you have problems with it.
Using CWM recovery to flash superSU
1. While still on CWM recovery, plug the phone into PC again.
2. Navigate using volume up and down buttons. Press Power button to select and Back soft key to go back.
3. Select mounts and storage>mount USB storage.

6. Select install zip from sdcard>choose zip from sdcard>root-glory-2-4030E.zip and select yes - Install root-glory-2-4030E.zip
7. It will flash the app to the system including all needed binaries. I also included the fix-permissions banary which is missing from the ROM.
8. Reboot the phone and wait. It will boot normally and no data will be lost. You will see superuser app in your app drawer. You are now rooted!:thumbsup:
Using TWRP recovery to flash superSU

boot_logo changed!

This is my new boot logo

bootanimation problem!
I changed my bootanimation and tried if it works using these commands which i normally do with my past android devices.
Code:
adb shell bootanimation
the animation works fine but when i hit:
Code:
adb reboot
the animation showed was just android mask or android shine which shows when you don't have bootanimation.zip inside /data/local or /system/media. it's like a default bootanimation.
so once I booted, I tried again
Code:
adb shell bootanimation
the bootanimation works but when I reboot, it's back to default.
I tried replacing back the original bootanimation.zip but it still the defaut bootanimation. It's very weird. I haven't encountered this before...

Found out the cause of this issue. The stock ROM has no fix_permissions binary. So I pushed the binary and tried to fix perm again and now custom bootanimation.zip works!

4050 fix
to get past the 4050 error update the SPFlash Tool to this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1982576

Cherry mobile Omega HD info states that its a dual core phone while all info about i-mobile IQ6 states its a single core phone. does anyone know which mediatek chipset the Omega HD uses? It's GPU?

yes i had it

How?
How can we flash the CWM to the Omega HD if you don't even give us a flashtool? Is this Rooting process tested? is it working?

How to Backup the phone
just bought the phone yesterday
do yo guys know how to back up this jellybean phone?

Hey guys, if you have FB we have a group with most of oHD users. Just search "CherryMobileOmegaHD" in FB (can't post links yet. sorry)
There are custom roms in the group, the usual rom cooked from dsdixda's kitchen (zipalign, deodexed, rm bloatwares)
@cyzarine
What do you mean with backup? We have the stock rom in the group, you might want to check it out.

Bummer! I'm stuck at step 3!
You will see that RECOVERY has a check beside it. Click on "Download." A warning will appear, proceed anyway.

Thanks for this!

anyone have a kernel that have oc"?

In need...
Woke up to a drained Omega HD today.
Plugged it in to have it charged.
Switched it on afterwards.
"OmegaHD" flashed before my eyes, followed by a blank screen with the familiar Cherry Mobile tune playing on the background. And then nothing! NO DISPLAY! I touch the screen and there are sounds playing to confirm each press, which means I am pressing on the right places -- only that there is NO DISPLAY APPEARING.
I switch it on and off, still the same results.
Wiped cache. Nothing... Since it's practically new, I go ahead and factory-restore the thing... still the same results. NO DISPLAY! :-S
What else can I do to this device to have it work properly?!

Have you installed any custom rom or any other zip files with your phone?

MIUI
How about porting MIUI to start with?
I am already running MIUI Home Launcher and it is a breeze. Do you have any experience with porting ?
I looked at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1827256 and it looks straight forward. What I am not sure is how much these applications depend on the underneath framework.. I mean, If I take all these apk and libraries, will it work on this stock Gionee Dream D1 ROM ?

Did you install the MediaTek drivers from the link above? Make sure you dont have the phone connected in the PDANet+ (Right click on the System Tray icon and click on disconnect. Also make sure you have USB debug enabled, under Settings->Developer Options.
If all the above fail try restarting the system and try to connect the phone to a different USB port on your computer.
let me know the results.

Try making recovery.img and boot.img backup through SP-FlashTool, then use MtkDroidTool to patch both imgs.
1: Open MtkDroidTool, connect your phone, click on Blocks Map button.
2: Write down 9th and 10th (9th=bootimg, 10th=recovery) row's Scatter and Size and click on Create scatter file button.
3: Open SPFT, click on Scatter-loading button and select that scatter file.
4: Click on Read Back tab, then click on Add button, then double-click on added item in listbox.
5: Set filename to boot.img, then change Start address to 0x(9th-row's-scatter/bootimg's-scatter) and Length to 0x(9th-row's-size/bootimg's-size).
6: Repeat 4th step, but this time set filename to recovery.img, then change Start address and Length as recovery's scatter and recovery's size.
7: Unplug phone from PC and remove and re-insert battery in phone (don't start phone)
8: Click on Read back button in SPFT, then plug in usb in phone.
9: After read back is done, take out cable then open MtkDroidTool, then select root, backup, recovery tab.
10: Tick To choose the boot.img file and click Recovery and Boot button, then select boot.img and recovery.img.
11: Copy scatter file and open MtkDroidTools folder, go to recovery and paste it there, then rename *_boot_patched_*.img and *_recovery_patched_*.img to boot.img and recovery.img.
12: Open SPFT and then select scatter file in recovery folder and flash boot and recovery.

Hello,
First thing is your phone is Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9502)
Second YELLOW light indicates that your phone is ROOTED but not permitted to MTKDroidTools.
'to use from phone' and 'backup' options only available when you grant permissions to MtkDroidTools by clicking on ROOT button (at bottom-right)
first use Backup to backup data from phone, then 'to use from phone' will be available for use.
or read this if ROOT button works:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44509214&postcount=407
if ROOT button doesn't work then read this:

Try going to recovery mode, if you are able to go in recovery mode, then there's ok.
other wise boot should be bricked, you have to find backup or flash files (or only boot.img) for your device!

2. Download Busybox on the tab via Google Playstore
3. Connect your tablet via USB and and make sure USB debugging is enabled.
4. Open MTKDroid Tools..The tool will recognize your device..If the color indicator in the bottom left corner is green, you already have root shell, and can go on to the next step, if it is yellow, click on the root button at the bottom, and wait for the progress bar, if the indicator stays yellow, or you get an error message, this probably means you do not have Busybox installed, you can install it from the Google play store. When the indicator turns to green you have root shell.

3) BACKING UP ROM AND MAKING IT FLASHABLE VIA SPFLASH TOOLS:-​
Note: Backup will only work if you have root on your device

[FONT=&quot]3. The process will now start. It may take at least 30 minutes to 1 hour depending on how many apps are installed on your phone. During the backup process you may see a pop-up asking if you want to make a compressed file for the backup. You can choose not to create the compressed file by clicking on “No”. It will same time but I recommend clicking on “Yes”.
[/FONT]
4.Once the backup has been completed check out the folder that contains your MTK Droid Tools application and you will see a folder named “backups”. The folder will contain all the images that you can use to flash using SP Flash tool and a zip file which is just a compressed files of the backup created by the droid tool. You can also see on your phone that there is a new folder named clockwordmod inside that there will also be a images that you can use to backup your rom using Clockworkmod (CWM).
5. Now to make this backup flashable through Sp Flash tools click on root,backup,recovery tab and click on To prepare blocks for Flash Tool
6. A new window will appear asking for .md5 file...For this navigate to MTKdroid Tools folder and then backups folder...Open the backup you have created earlier and select the files.md5 and click open.
7. Wait for the MTK Droid tools to copy the files for Sp Flash tools.. When the tool completes its job there will be a message "copying is complete"... Now you have a flashable backup of the rom...
