I've got an Evolio EvoTab Fun ( 1GHz Allwinner( Boxchip) A10 proccessor, HDMI out, microsd slot, microUsb port; which I tried to root and managed to do so successfully.
The problem arised when I tried to push a couple of different recoveries, so I can make a full rom dump. First I pushed a recovery for the Allview AllDro Speed , which didn't work, except for booting into it. Anything you tried to do got you stuck.
Next I pushed a Nexus 7 recovery ( Yes, I know. Very stupid of me. ) and now the tablet doesn't start.
If I leave it a while for the battery to discharge completely, when I plug it into the charger, it gives me the charging animation, and if I press the On button, the backlight comes on, but that's all, if I press the On button again, it just shuts down and won't respond to any button, not even the charging animation when plugged in. I have a system dump, but I can't get it recognized by adb ( ubuntu ).
Can someone please help me ?

Hi there,
I share your pain.
However, there is a way to recover it.
option 1.
If in Romania, send it to Evolio service (see www.evolio.ro). They can reflash it under warranty, or if this does not apply, it will cost you 50Ron (~10E) to do it AND you get back under warranty, if any remained.
option 2.
Download LiveSuit application (v1.07, just google it) and a modified .img file for alldro speed S tablet from http://www.filehost.ro/29137289/Evotab_Fun_4_0_4_ES_v2_img/
Note: this image was not made by me, it was made by user eugen_secuiu from the ALLVIEW ALLDRO PRODUCTS FORUM.
In my case i could not activate the wireless and had to re-flash the official image under warranty.
Hope you get it back to a working state.
If you got another solution meanwhile please share
Regards.
Thanks a lot.
Nu mă aşteptam să-mi răspundă chiar un român.
I'll try reflashing with the LiveSuit app.
LE: Had a hard time figuring out what drivers to install ( Installed Bootloader drivers ) LiveSuit says no device found. couldn't jump to update mode.
Could you explain more on a step-by-step basis please?

Does anyone here know how to get recovery mode on Evotab 3?
Hi there!
Unfortunately the only possible recovery for a Evolio tablet is getting rid of the piece of ...
I gave mine away, for free, and moved to something better documented and supported by the dev community (mt6577 cpu).
Evolio makes appliances, like a fridge or cofee maker, not Open-source developement driven tablets...i sincerely have a lot more customization options on my 20yo motorcycle then i ever had on their product.
At 5 year warranty they officially announce there will be no updates for it AND refuse to supply the original ROM. img... plus the bullsh.t reasons like: it's not compatible with JB or my favourite "we don't supply the original installation image because we don't want you to break your tablet" :banghead:
... i'll buy another Evolio tablet when they'll come as cereal boxes gifts

Hello all.
I got my hands on a Inew I2000 phone (Mediatek 6589 cpu). I tried to flash it with the latest rom, and might have hard bricked it. Can you help me say if it is indedd hard-bricked, and if not how to revive it ?
What I did :
I used Flash Tool 3.1312
Got the rom from this page : http://www.needrom.com/mobile/inew-i2000/
After fighting with the drivers for a while, it seems my phone is ready to flash.
I selected the scatter-loader, cliced "firmware upgrade"
Pluged the phone.
The upgrade seemed to work fine. I got to the green circle. I unpluged phone. But hte phone didn't boot.
After that, nothing.
The phone doesn't seem to reac to anything. The screen stays black.
When I plug it, the list in device manager moves a bit ( showing that it still react to pluged USB) But I can't find the device anywhere on the list.
When I try to flash anything with flash tool, I clic load. Then, when I plug the phone, the loading start. But when the red bar reach 100%, nothing more happens.
From what I've found with google so far, it looks like I somehow had the wrong pre-loader in my ROM.
Now, I'm opened to suggestions.
Any way I can be sure wrther my phone is bricked or not ?
If not, what is the next step to revive it ?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Hello!
I think i can help to you! Send me a private message and tonight i will message back with the sollution...just i working now.

As you say in pm, yes the sollution the "test-spot"!
You have the truth!
http://www.4shared.com/download/5Y4TKOCfba/service_spot__1_.jpg?lgfp=3000
There is the spot!
You need to remove the back cover and you need 3 item: a piece of wire, a screwdriver (fot the back cover) and a rubber-ring.
First remove almost all the screw, except next to sd card slot (bottom left corner of the sd card slot)...This screw fix the main board and you can remove the back cover without remove this screw.
Put the battery to right position and fix it with rubber ring to the phone.
Prepare with the flash tools and rom, for flashing...(usb cable conect to the pc, scatter file etc...)
Start the flashing with the downlad button and inmediatly sort the spot with the motherboard screw (what you didn't remove) with the wire.
Waiting for the green circle! And Enjoy!
Pls let me know if you successful!
The problem was i think...There is two different mainboard in Inew i2000 the v1.1 and the v2.1...The newer stock roms belongs to second.
Here is a KitKat THEMED (it's just 4.2.1) rom: http://www.4shared.com/zip/WHdOpLytba/07_resurrection_feelKat.html
(little bit lightweighted and optimized) It's for PCB v1.1

I haven't succeded (yet) but thanks a lot for the info.
I think I got the right point on the motherboard. When I connect it, I can see a white led lightning up near the ubs port on the phone. So, I guess connecting the point makes my phone react.
But I think I might have a driver problem now.
Here is what happened.
Launch Flashtool as admin.
Load a scatterfile (any file, at this point I just want to be able to flash anything.)
Battery in, usb cable connected
press load.
the red progress bar imediately reach 100%
I try to connect he testpoints.
nothing more happens. Sometime I see various errors, not always the same.
Before finding the test point method, I tried all kind of drivers. Now I'm not sure which one is left on the system or wich is the correct one.
Anyway thanks for pointing the test points to me !
Also, thanks for the recovery and the ROM.
But none of them contains a preloader / scatter file. So, at this point, even if I get the right drivers I can't load them. I'll try them later if I manage to revive the phone, but right now my aim is ...
1 / Cleanup the drivers, and reinstall the right one
2 / Get flash tool to load anything on the phone via test point
3 / Find the right preloader and load it via test point
If I manage to do that, then I should be able to put back the back cover, and load the recovery "normally".
In the meantime, any advice is highly welcome.
Like :
- Any tips for cleaning up / installing drivers ?
- Any idea what the right preloader is ?
- Precise order on what to plug when flashig ( Battery / plusg USB / Load in flashtool / Connect points ? )
But more than eveything, thank you ! I might not have succeded yet, but at least I am not stuck anymore. Before your post I didn't know what to do. At least, now I have the test point and I can try something.
Also, sorry for the late answer. I had a lot on my plate, and didn't realise you had answered.
I suscribe to be sure not to miss any more answer.

Hello Again!
For the recovery you do not need new scatter file, use the original.
You can install the new rom from CWM recovery.
So let's see the problem.
First i need that error messages, it's important!
Try to use different usb cable/usb port/computer (operation system).
And different version of Flashtools.
I use this:
http://www.4shared.com/zip/CBA1yGcq/SP_Flash_Tool_v313040119.html
And this drivers:
http://www.4shared.com/zip/TPj497mj/6577driver_install_3_steps.html
But i need the error codes...Meanwhile you can contunie trying. We will save that phone!
Best Regards
Thanks again.
I'm already using this version of Flashtool. I'll try your drivers as well.
I might have some more question later on, but for now I think I need to try again when I've slept a bit. Maybe things will seems clearer tomorow I'll keep you updated later this week end.

Quick update.
On device manager, the phone appear under "Ports com and LTP" as "MTK USB Port (com12)" Or other port number if I use other USB ports.
The error message I sometime get is BROM ERROR : S_PORT_COM_OPEN_FAIL (1013)
[COM] Failed to open port COM12
Wether I get the message or not depends on the order I do thing. ( Plus phone first, load after, or load and plug after ...)
So far, same reaction as always. The red progress bar goes to 100% very quicky, then nothing more happens.
EDIT ;
YES ! Phone résurected !
What I did :
phone not pluged, test points already connected
Windows -> write memory.
Go to tab Write memory
Open raw data -> select preloader.bin
select EMMC
Adress 0x0000000000
length 0x00600000
Write
Plug phone (with test point already connected)
The prelaoder gets written -> green circle.
unplug phone
After that back to main tab
select scater file from the same image, clic firmware upgrade
connect phone
Loading goes through ...
Green circle,
Phone switch on -> Success !
Thanks a lot, I will now try to flash the CWM recovery and the rom you recommended ... but later.
Right now my phone can boot again, and that's awesome !

Yikes!
Looks like, there is only usb driver related or op system related problem. (for this moment)
I looking for different driver and give it a try.
tonight...
Lol, you must have answered while I was editing my post.
As I said, Phone resurected ! Success !
It is now booting normally, with a stock rom.
Next steps are
1 / CWM + the rom you suggested.
2 / Fix memory to use the whole memory on one system partition. (It seems the i2000 for some reason does not use all the available memory.)
But all that is not problematic anymore. I just need the time to get to it
Many thanks for your precious help, I wouldn't have been able to do it without you.

It's an apk for repartitioning your memory! Use only maximum 1,5 GB system memory options!
After that you must reflash the rom of course and your internal sd will cleared too!
But not the cwm recovery!
I'm happy now!
Get the 2.7 GB of memory on one partition ... OK
Get more available memory ... nope. Not sure it is actually possible on my version.
CWM ... OK
insall the kitkat themed rom you gave ... I don't know.

How long exactly ? Because I think the 4 color moving logo has been displayed for 15 minutes now.I know first boot can be long ... but at what point do I decide the phone is not just slow booting but actually stuck ?
Edit : Well, I'll stop at 30min I think.
But even if this one doesn't work for me, I would be interrested to know where you found custom roms for inew I2000 phone. I haven't been able to find a single one with google.

Well, depends on what you call hardbrick and soft brick.
I bricked it using only software. So, it's soft.
But I had to open it and attach a wire to the motherboard to unbrick it ... so kinda hard to.

Eh it's will be difficult, you know i customized that rom... Because i did not found too. It was not a really rom develpoment just kind a "patchwork"...
The problem is, you have (i think) v2.1 board in your Inew I2000...In Hungary...one company sold v1.1 verzion...it called "Myaudio 508"...
For the v2.1 i have only stock rom...
But i did only few imporvements....Working GPS (with hw modding too) not blurry cam (hw too) different launcher, customized bootanim, different (and less) system ringtones and notifications. Some build.prop tweaking...etc...etc...
I try to make 4.2.2, because i have a working version, but still have two bugs, but that harder bugs and my phone sadly dead.

But if you want ask anything...just do it! if i can, i will help..
Is it possible from battery date 2013.02.25 and green sticker below battery with 2013 05 checked to tell which exactly preloader I need for this bricked phone (quad core)? I tried various sp flash tools versions and various roms dated 2013 03 16, 2013 05 10, 2013 07 06, tried to download only preloader or full rom with variuos errors, usually 4001 and 4032, now only shortening the point method left, but how do I know which exactly preloader I neeed?

You shold check the motherboard version number...Already i know two versions of this phone...The v1.1 and the v2.1...
For the flashtools the firmware names contain "_21" or "_v21"...In previous posts i linked a v21 rom. If you need the older one...i don't have v1.1 rom for flashtools now (because my phone is dead) but you can use the "spot method" and cmw rom + zip firmware form.

Hello Friends, has you may know there is no ROM for lg Bello 2 !! But I have Good News you Can Flash the ROM from x155, x160, 165 ,165g on bello 2 (x150)
LG BELLO 2 Flash Tutorial
1. You will need original firmware (This one is for lg max and its android 5.0 not 5.0.2 but works !) - Rom Download below !
2. You will need Smart Phone Flash Tool (version 5 and up or will not work !)
3. You will need Teck VCOM SERIAL USB DRIVERS. tehnotone.com/windows-10-mtk-vcom-usb-drivers-for-32-64-bit-drivers-installation- (follow the installation, steps this is very important and if you are in windows 10 you will need to remove driver signature to be able to install, just google it !)
3. Now start Smart Phone Flash Tool and load scatter MT6582_Android_scatter.txt from the downloaded firmware folder.
4. The flashing process :
- Take out the battery from the phone.
- On the SPF Tool list select files all the files.
- Click Download button on the app
- Connect your phone to PC via working USB cable.
- Now just wait a couple of minutes
5. Unplug the phone, put the battery in, and try to power it on. Hopefully it will boot, slowly, wait and set language etc...like the first time you bought it or after a factory reset. Now there is a reason for joy
6. if your language does´t show just use Language Enabler from the app store to enable it !
Download !
If you have any question here´s my e-mail in the subject type bello 2 !
PS: Sorry for my bad English:
Reserved --- - CWM
So i have the stock recovery but i cant build the cwm if you have experience and want to help build the cwm just send me an email !
I need the cwm to port a android 6 / 7 rom to lg bello 2 and maybe make a custom rom or a cm rom !

My LG X150 depends on this thread. I have also bricked my phone and need to flash factory rom.

Well, glad to say, I fixed my LG Bello 2 phone.
Several days I have searched Internet for solution and found one that worked.
My device was soft-bricked(can't turn it on, practically dead rock)
So I am writing this to help others that suffer the same problem to revive their phones also. Folks like me that prefer entry level phones don't like to waste money on buying a new device
To begin... Phones like LG Bello 2 (LG MAX, LG Prime 2), x150, x155, x160, x165 are practically the same. These versions are sold all around the world and are basically the same phone, just with lite variations. In the core of each one of them is a Chinese MTK 6582 chip. This is very important !!!
Nice China manufacturers have put some neat functions into this chip so it can be flashed with right tools and unbricked easy ...if one knows what he is doing.
>>>IF THE OPERATION FAILS, I WOULD NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND ALL I DO HERE IS SHARE PERSONAL EXPERIENCE AND KNOW-HOW FOR FREE>>>> Btw, consider the option that your phone is hardbricked and has some serious hardware malfunction, so flashing it wont help.
As I mentioned, there is so called META mode for MT65xx based phones and it is used for flashing firmwares.
These are the steps how I did it:
1. You will need original firmware in "scatter" form. Basically it is a folder with system and android backup files and a scatter file that is something like a "grocery list". I couldn't find x150 firnware so i downloaded one for x165. You may find it by name(STOCK ROM LGX165g-00-V10a), or search for some other version.( I hope someone will put original x150 firmware for download on XDA forums soon...)
2. You will need software called Smart Phone Flash Tool and it is used for flashing MT6582 chips. Go to the spflashtool.com page. It works on Windows or Linux. For win you will need drivers.
3. Drivers are special for this purpose and called Media Teck VCOM SERIAL USB DRIVERS. You can download the drivers on previous page or at tehnotone.com/windows-10-mtk-vcom-usb-drivers-for-32-64-bit-drivers-installation-tutorial page where the installation process is explained nicely... and be sure to check "preloader usb driver". You will know what I am talking about when the moment comes.
3. Now start the application and load scatter MT6582_Android_scatter.txt from the downloaded firmare folder. The app will then load all necessary files and prepare them for flashing. In the list there are many files, and by the names you could presume what they are for. The PRELOADER file is very important as it is device specific and if you are not sure that you downloaded the right firmware, you should skip it. It is used for mapping your phones internal memory, so if you flash wrong one...well my phone was already dead so I had nothing to lose.
4. The flashing process :
- Take out the battery from the phone, it is not needed.
- On the SPF Tool list select files (I had to check and flash them one by one because of some errors)
- Click Download button on the app
- Press and hold Vol down button (This is a mighty Chinese secret to trigger META mode)
- Connect your phone to PC via working USB cable.
In couple of moments flashing should start, and you can release Vol down button. Watch pretty colors on the progress bar and wait for it to finish. (Btw in some other phones it is needed to short circuit test points on the motherboard to initiate META mode, so I am very happy this is not the case with Bello 2)
5. Unplug the phone, put the battery in, and try to power it on. Hopefully it will boot, slowly, wait and set language etc...like the first time you bought it or after a factory reset. Now there is a reason for joy
If you fail at some point, recheck your steps, think, search for solutions on the Internet and do it again.
Now, remember: Your phone could be damaged in some other way, so this procedure won't work.
Anyway, at least you tried to do something. Just prepare yourself, arm with knowledge and be focused.
I would be glad to know if I helped you bring your phone to life and saved your money, so don't be lazy and hit Thanks button if all goes well :good:
Kind regards, everyone.
..and still waiting for that CM ROM for Bello ll :victory:
