Hello all,
Firs I like to apologies if I've posted in the wrong section of the forum.
As the title says, I have a Iglo A101 with GingerBread 2.3.4 phone and I accidently deleted the system/bin/sh file.
I was searching for a2sd and I downloaded it, but when running it, instead of pressing 1 - "install a2sd" I pressed 2 "uninstall a2sd", by mistake, and by the time I realized the sh file was deleted. Now the phone is no longer rooted and can't be rooted and also my Wi-Fi doesn't work anymore.
I've search the net for answer but I can't find a solution to this type of phone.
Could someone help me fix this or at least get the Wi-Fi working again?
Thanks in advanced...
OK, I've manage to contact the retailer and he gave me what appears to be the all system files, as now I have a rar containg system.img userdata.img recovery.img etc etc. How do I install this files, because he doesn't appear to know either. I tried from the recovery mode using install update.zip from sdcard but it give's me invalid OTA package and I can't find an answer on how to flash a img file from recovery mode...

Does the device have fastboot? If so the files need to flashed using fastboot. The command is fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot flash system system.img.
If your device does not have fastboot then you will need to extract the system.img and make a flashable .zip so you can flash through CWM or whatever your recovery is. If you are using stock recovery then I eexpect you will either need to find a solution or send it off for repair. I will have a look into helping you get your device back up and running but I cant promise to succeed. Give me a few days and I will report back with any solutions or info to get you on your way to fixing your device.

I have stock recovery 3e. I tried to make an update.zip but I keep getting invalid OTA Package..
Here is the build.prop, sorry for my late response
And here is the one that is on my phone, I've manage to get it using jota text editor. Some how that application can still see some system files, but it can't write..

hi
i had similar problem on this device a101 i did not delete any folder but by rooting the device my wifi and Bluetooth stoped working.i solved the problem by the factory menu.....have you tried it?
i did factory reset, but since there a system file missing it doesn't solve it..Can't there be a way to create an update.zip package with the sh file and then apply like an update from recovery? I've been trying to understand what does invalid OTA package mean, I think if that would be solved then I could easily put the file back...
i think you need spb launcher
i have to admit i used it only ones before for china 5388 there i needed com + usb cable here you need just a normal cable us the boot on this phone is different i have all you need give me email i will send to you. i have scater for a101 file too.i never used it but i have.Us i said my phone work ok after reset from factory mode
still nothing?

If you have the system.img image, you can try to flash it in the phone with SP Flash Tool,

Hi,
As the title suggests I'm looking for the original firmware of the Alcatel OT 4033D because, after I bricked mine, I can't find a working ROM for my phone (I've tried various ROM for MT6572 processor and Android 4.2.2 but I don't read the SD card and the SIM (Although setting the correct IMEI))
If someone is own this device could make me a dump? I just need the file "system.img", the others I already have.
PS: It's okay if it's not the file .Img but the zip of the partition with the files contained in /system
Thanks in advance to who answers C:

Thank you for that n1osbb2;51494733.
I also have a bricked one, it gets stuck at animation. I can boot into stock recovery.
Can someone tell me what I need to do to fix it?
Another idea is if we could change the firmware version number to something lower, then the Alacatel "Mobile Upgrade S" would be essentially forced to overwrite it. Right now it sees my phone's version as up to date and stops there.
So... Is it at all possible to alter the firware version number on the phone?

n1osbb2, could you please take a backup with MTK Droid Root & Tools as well?

Hi, the backup by MTK droid tools fails everytime, I'm trying to debug the error.. If I have sucess I'll upload it.
BTW you can try another methods:
-Flash the CWM using MTK droid tools ( if you want the modified recovery,img I can upload it, or if u want MTK generates the img automatically: there is a guide on google; and then you can flash my backup without user data trought the CWM
If u want CWM make adb works, so you can do a backup of your firmware in order to can come back in the prevoiuos situation if it's needed
OR
-Using the latest version of SP flash tools, u can flash the system.img that u can find in my CWM backup. The latest version have no bugs with the generation of the scatter file, so it could work, but I'm not sure
Sorry for my bad english, I hope you understand..
Let me know if one of this methods works, thank you!

Thanks for the reply.
Is the modified recovery.img not the one included in the zip you uploaded?
Re the second option, there is no system.img inside - that's the reason I asked for a MTK Droid Root & Tools backup.
The contents of your zip are these:
Code:
.android_secure.vfat.tar
boot.img
cache.ext4.tar
recovery.img
system.ext4.tar

I confused the system.ext4.tar with the system.ext4.img
So, I have done half MTK droid backup (it stops when it give me the error, so is not thecomplete backup, but the system.img os ok..) and there is the system image file.. I can upload it 5-04 night (GMT+1) or maybe this night. I'll post the link when it's uploaded.
The firmware of the 4033D have the custpack partiotion too, adn I don't know if it's needed too, so if the flash of system.img fails I'll upload the custpack too
The recovery with CWM is here: https://www.mediafire.com/?bg4rtah9tsbhszs
EDIT: I done a full backup with MTK adn I prepared files for flash tool. I compressed it all in ~460MB archive, t should contain everything. The upload time is the same!
EDIT2 4-3-14 0051 gmt+1: I'm uploading it on Mediafire! It's a high compressed arc archive, so it can drop the pc perfomance while extracting, so have patience
With my connection it wants a lot of time, it say ~8hrs

In Mediatek powered phones, splash logo resides on a separate partition called logo. You have to flash your logo.img/logo.bin to that partition. The logo.img you see in /cust folder is likely just a backup.

alright i saw some guide on some wordpress website to go to TWRP make boot partition backup , then to move that bacup to some folder i can access from pc ,alter logo , and put it back to original place + use that backup . Now im stuck before splash screen logo because phone can't load that logo and he is just rebooting after 10 sec or so . Only thing i managed to access is fastboot. Problem is i can't find any rom for my devices with .img format files so i can't rly flash them. Do you maybe have some idea ?

You just need to do more searches.
Huawei Stock roms come in update.app format. It's a compressed file that contains all the img files (boot.img, recovery.img, system.img, logo.img, cache.img etc). There is already a thread to unpack such file and extract the img files. The tool is available here.
Now, once you get your logo.img, you can use dd in adb or terminal to flash it. This is not intended for normal users. I wouldn't advice it.
And no, you cannot use another phone's logo.img/logo.bin in your phone even if it's from another huawei.
So I just got the Aristo 3 and wanted to root it. after an extensive search I have come up empty. Does anyone know if there is a method available to use yet or maybe something is in the works? I've unlocked flashing but I cant seem to boot recovery. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Same ive spent about 6 hours researching this ive never built my own root before however i just dont have the time to do whats needed. From what i researched get the original boot rom from lg bridge and perform a restore to download the factory boot image then use magisk to rebuild the image

Hmm I'll give it a try. The phone is still new enough that I don't have much saved to it and if I brick it can take it back
should be able to just get the boot image may be the aristo 2 dev would pick this up since he's familiar with it I see you have a few posts in that forum maybe you can send that dev a message see if they would pick it up.
I eagerly await any progress in this run! My girlfriend cracked her screen on her Aristo 2 and decided that it was time to upgrade. I've never been disappointed in the idea of upgrading my phone...until it meant giving up my Aristoboy Mk.2(which was/is quite formidable)and rooted status along with it. If there is anything I might read about the process online, I would at very least consider the task myself. I am learning, but I have some decent skills and experience behind me. Please let me know if I can assist in any way. If not, I hope to see the first strides towards tackling this latest addition to the Aristo line!
My thanks to all my fellow devs here! You each make up a piece of the whole collection that make this, hands down the best forum/online community available the world over! Keep it up! We are making a difference in so many lives!
Your friend,
~[ProTech]~
So I've been busy as **** lately, but I found that the issue seems to be with the os more than the phone itself. I'm not that proficient with downgrading the os to a earlier version since this phone came stock with Oreo. I will try and talk to some of the devs who did the aristo 2 x210ma. Hopefully they have a solution. I've been using my 2 instead. I never realized how much you can't do with a stock phone and os.
OK here's something you can try...
first get dev-patched LGup {GooGle It}
then use the Dump function of Lgup to dump All partitions from your fone...
look for boot_COM{some#here} and rename it to boot.img
put that file on your fones sdcard and install magisk manager app.
use magisk manager app to patch that boot.img file.
find the new file patched_boot.img whereever magisk put it on your sdcard...
move it to your desktop or a folder etc. on P.C
now try to flash it to your fone...
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
if that works your bootloader is now unlocked you'll have to reboot the fone once as it'll erase cache and data...
after that
again do
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
now try
Code:
fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
if that works....
Code:
fastboot reboot
and you'll have root by magisk.
if fastboot's not working other option is to rename "patched_boot.img" to "boot.img"
and then use Partitions DL option in lgup to flash the "patched"boot.img to the phone...
if that works you'll have root by magisk...
If this helped you feel free to hit thanks and come back to post the results plz.
Thanks

My bootloader is already unlocked I've just not been able to flash anything with fastboot. So I have LGup, is there a difference with the dev patched one? I also have magisk on my phone, but it really doesn't give me any options besides to install a new version. I'm gonna go try your suggestion soon though...it sounds promising...and may open up other options if this doesn't succeed. Thanks I'll keep you posted.

I'm trying to port and compile Multi-rom for LG-aristo Lg-m210 at the moment...
So I have LGup, is there a difference with the dev patched one?

in answer to that YES quite a difference...
devpatched lgup gives you extra options such as Dump and Partitions-DL and Chiperase among others...
you'll NEED that dump and partitions-DL option....

So I can't get passed the dump. I keep getting a timed out error. I even tried to format the user data using fastboot and it failed. And I am curious about the boot_COM. I didn't see any file in the partition list matching that. I did see the boot partition and many others that I didn't recognize. So kinda feeling that we are back to

No the file wont say that in lgup, it'll be named that after you create a new folder on desktop call it "Dump" then use the dev-patched lgup and Dump option, select the folder Dump on the desktop and select the little checkbox for all on partitions list and click start...
also you may be haveing issues because of the .dll your useing... will lgup flash a stock .kdz to the device?
if yes, I'd think the dump option would work fine...

So yes it would load a stock formware but no it wouldn't allow me to dump even one partion. And the strange thing was that my list of options would chanhe sometimes. Like it would give me more options i.e. phonesettings. I even tried different cables and ports. It doesnt matter though i somehow hard bricked it so bad that it won't even. Boot to download mode and somehow fried my sim card to the point it wont work in any other phone. Im just waiting for metro to open so i can try again

OH WOW what a mess...
I would say it's the .dll in the LGUP causing pain here...
something you can try when you're ready to try again....
remove/uninstall devpatched LGUP and install regular store version
use the Common .dll
and add this file{ UI_Config.lgl } to your Common folder in the lgup install location ...
to make it easier I'll just zip up My common folder for you to replace yours
to do this
right click on lgup, select open file location...
navigate to the model subfolder you'll see things like
{ AllinOne } {Common} and {LGUP_LGNPST} folders...
at that point just right click and rename {Common} folder to {Commonbak},
then take my zip file I'm attaching and unzip it and inside will be Common folder...
just Copy / Paste that new Common folder to where the old one is..
set permissions of folder { read-only} and open the folder find file called { UI_Config.lgl }
and set it's permissions to READ ONLY . otherwise it'll be erased once you start LGUP.
and see If that changes anything with being able to Dump...
It's let me dump every LG i've plugged into it...
so I should think it should work for you too...

Dude...
First off let me say MertoPCS has the biggest pile of **** customer care department. I'm still waiting on my new device to comr from the warrenty department. I did however fix the sim issue (again metro sucks leaky bowels). I will definitely post any new developments as soon as the happen.
Oh also i did a dump on another phone (aristo 2) and had no issuses. And i saw what ypu meant with the boot_COM##. Thanks for the help.

it may work,
when lgup is being a pain it's worth a try.
I say go for it. but to be certain I'd try flashing the extracted boot.img with partitions DL option in lgup once to make sure it flashes it b4 trying to patch it and flash it again...
Just my 2 cents.

Aristo3 FW: X220MA10B "10b" came on the system stock
LGUP V1.14 - patched
DLL v1.0.28.17
The above dll is the only one I have found that will recognize the phone and load LGUP, I have also attempted to use uppercut: Error DLL for X220M10b is invalid install a valid dll
https://imgur.com/1Ptrv3n
however, once i attempt to dump phone reboots into download mode i get: Error: 0x2000, please use latest Dll LAF protocol version is not match dll=0 device 162512928
https://imgur.com/5I7GfOa
I attempted to use the LGUPC DLL from the kdz V 10E firmware and that did not recognize the device i also attempted to use your zipped commons.
any feedback on this?
I feel that i should use LG tool update to 0F then use the 0F kdz to attempt all this?
DOWNGRADE Don't UPGRADE

If at all posible find the OLDEST firmware possible in kdz and do a full flash of that .
and try your dll mod with that by extracting the dll from said kdz and renaming to what ever the one in Common folder is and keep the UI_Config.lgl in there to keep the extra options if possible...
It's all trial and error with this stuff, so keep at it.
DO NOT flash a firmware.kdz from a different model of the device as it'll flash aboot sbl etc and you'll end with a brick that can't be fixed.
and I've always liked { in my experiments} to use the partitions DL option even when downgrading etc to be able to NOT CHOOSE the boot-stack partitions...
but give it a shot and tell us how it go's.
we may be able to split a root-bounty if we come up with something working across users

Hi, i own an Oneplus 8 India Version.
As soon as i purchased the first thing I did was to take the persist.img backup as that seemed to be an important thing to do from my reading through the articles.
After a few months now, I seem to be in need of using this image and realized the image file is not accessible. from the articles and videos I read/seen, everyone is able to EXTRACT the image file using the 7zip or similar tools. However, i am unable to extract using any of the tools.
I took the latest persist.img from the already troubled device and that too is not working. 7zip says "Can not open the file ...."
command i used was this :
dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/persist of=/sdcard/persist.img
similarly, i manually copied the file using root file manager aad that too is giving the error
Please help
Fastboot flash persist persist.img
I believe that's how you would restore persist.
I could be very wrong. Proceed with caution and I'm not liable if you break it.

Hi thank you. The concern is related to the image not being extracted. From what i have read and seen in YouTube too is they are able to extract the img file. But my files are not readable.

There was a thread in this forum that mentioned the persist cannot be shared or doesn't work with others. Apparantly it contains sensor calibration data which usually will be unique.
Can someone confirm if your persist image is extractable with 7zip or similar. If so what am i doing wrong.

You need to be unlocked and rooted. Then you will reboot to fastboot. From there, BOOT twrp (fastboot boot twrp.img)
Once booted, use TWRP to backup persist.img

Using root explorer i copied the persist image but that too was un extractable. The persist image that i took backup using the command in OP when i bought the device also doesn't extract.
And one more thing is TWRP doesn't seem to be working with 11 OS yet.

Need to downgrade to 10.
I pulled my persist image off of 10.
---------- Post added at 07:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:08 PM ----------
From what I've read there's not reason to unzip the persist.img
If you backed it up with a WORKING persist present, then you simply need to boot to fastboot and flash your persist.img
It will replace the corrupted partition and you're good to go. No one on any forum I read said they actually extracted anything from the persist.img file itself.
They all had to extract (see backup) the WORKING persist.img and flash that with fastboot command.
You can extract working persist.img with the following command in adb:
dd if=/dev/block/by-name/persist of=/sdcard/persist.img
This will save it to your sdcard. Transfer that backup to your adb folder on pc. Reboot into fastboot and use the following command to flash it:
fastboot flash persist persist.img
I do have working persist. There is a youtube video regarding same issue and ye extracted files from working persist. Your steps are clear and thank you for that .
My reason for asking was. If my files are corrupted i may damage more than solving. Hopefully the files i have are good.
