Hi Hi.. friends.. its been 5 months since Coolpad Dazen 1 (8297L-I00) was launched in India and yet the stock rom for this phone is not available on net. Even at Coolpad's official service support site where firmware for all of their models are available, our beloved Dazen 1 seems to be an orphan.
There is no cwm available for our device either.
But if you are rooted and were searching for cwm and probably got one (wrong one which is for coolpad f1 plus) following some misguiding articles. and if you try to flash it to your phone, you will get stuck in bootloader mode. But don't worry it can be fixed easily..
NOTE: YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY TYPE OF DAMAGE THAT CAN HAPPEN TO YOUR PHONE. I HAVE TESTED THIS METHOD AND IT WORKED PERFECTLY FINE FOR ME. IT WILL WORK FOR YOU AS WELL IF YOU FOLLOW THE STEPS CAREFULLY.
Steps.
#1. Download the recovery.zip below, extract the files.
#2. Download and install the drivers if u haven't already.
#3. Power off your phone, connect it to pc, press and hold the Volume + and Power key for a few seconds to enter bootloader.
#4. Go to the folder where u extracted the files, Press Shift key then right click any where on the window and select open command window here.
#5. Press Volume+ key in phone.
#6. Type this command in command window.
Code:
fastboot devices
if your device is listed. then type
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
If flash succeeds then you are done.
Code:
fastboot reboot
to reboot your device.
and if you don't see your device listed then make sure you have installed the drivers.
NOW.. if you mess up with your system u will brick your device OR try to apply OTA update on your rOOted phone, u will stuck on boot logo.
and these bricks will be pain in head to fix.. because there's no cwm backup or no stock rom.
but somehow @jaswant singh has managed to create fastboot flashable system.img which can restore our system but there are issues with it, wifi and bluetooth do not work after flashing.. but we hope that it will be fixed soon.
this is only way to fix this brick until stock rom becomes available.
oooooooohhhhhhhhhhh yeaaaah...........
Created my own system.img with help of @jaswant singh
and finally fixed my dazen 1 completely.. everything is working fine... wifi, bluetooth, sims are also working..
Fully functional Stock system.img is ready.
[Supports OTA Update]

Flash system.img in fastboot.
#1. For windows.
copy system.img in your adb folder. put your phone in fastboot and give the command.
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
it will take 2-3 minutes to complete. when its done, type
Code:
fastboot reboot
#2. For Ubuntu.
cd to the directory where you have put system.img. put your phone in fastboot and give the command.
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img -i 0x1ebf
when done.
Code:
fastboot reboot -i 0x1ebf
Voila.... :highfive::highfive:You just unbricked your coolpad dazen 1 and saved yourself some cash that you would have paid to service center.
So, Hit thanks button if I helped you.
OTA bricking the phone after root is really sad.. I don't think i will root my phone not until we find ways to counter this problem..
Anyways its good to finally see development work start on our Coolpad Dazen 1.. Better late than never..
This is the complete guide to unbrick coolpad dazen 1

I've finally managed to find another copy of the stock Ascend P2 firmware [P2-6011V100R001C00B021]
Flashing is easy, just copy the dload folder to the root of your internal memory and use the system update app to apply a local update.
The ROM can be rooted using eRoot.
More tweaks and other mods for this rom will follow soon.
Downloads:
P2-6011V100R001C00B021
eroot v1.3.3
Thank you Angelbob! I can finally have the B021 update
Very cool I assume I can flash it even if I've removed some of the stock Apks from my current rom?
By the way there's a p2tools apk on the server- Whats it for?
Mine fails to update, after the system reboots in the Android recovery system.
Fails to mount E: /SDcard. Runs through the "checking module" stuff, and after Checking module Cust it writes Huawei SD card update fail..
and continues
cust copying files...
copy cust files successed!
and then the huge
FAIL.
I'm probably doing something wrong but what could it be?
Try a factory reset first
Sent from my C6603 using Tapatalk
How well does this ROM work?
EDIT: I also cannot get this ROM installed.
Could it be because I am already running BO25?
I tried factory resetting as you suggested to the other person, it made no difference.
Tried factory reset also, made no difference
Mine updated fine.
I thought this would remove the silly operator logo that comes up when i turn on my phone and remove all the apps installed by the operator, but it's all still there.
Is this just a 'kernel' update or am i missing something here?
Thanks.

You ought to try this method to downgrade your ROM.
1) your P2 must have root access;
2) find in the "default.prop" file (you'll find it in the "/" directory) and change "B025" to "B020" for example:
ro.confg.hw_bootversion=P2-6011V100R001C00B025...
3) find in the "build.prop" file and change all "B025" to "B020" for example:
ro.confg.hw_systemversion=P2-6011V100R001C00B025_SYSTEM
ro.build.display.id=P2-6011V100R001C00B025
ro.build.version.incremental=C00B025
ro.build.description=P2-6011-user 4.1.2 HuaweiP2-6011 C00B025 ota-rel-keys,
ro.build.fingerprint=Huawei/hwp2-6011:4.1.2/HuaweiP2/C00B025
ro.product.CustDVersion=B025 (here can be any other values, these are only for example).
Having changed all the above-mentioned values, you will be able to downgrade your B025 ROM to B021. Just remember, that a ROM version in the edited "default.prop" and "build.prop" must be lower than a ROM version which you want to downgrade to.
Good luck!

Three problem behind for non working twrp ,,
1. Your downlaod had been corrupted ,
2. while installing via mobile uncle is not supported
3. your size of recovery partition should be less than actual twrp size ,
I used recovery manager app i went smooth , the first two points you can debugg easily , and last point can be checked by following code
Code:
1.adb shell cat /proc/dumchar_info
2.adb shell cat /proc/mtd

Hello, any chance you could upload a TWRP Backup of the complete Phone? I accidently did not only wipe the phone but also the sdcard, so not only the OS but also my backup is gone :,(
I found some zip files on needrom.com but I cant get them to install. (Neither with TWRP nor manually unzipped with fastboot.)
Currently I have TWRP and fastboot working properly, but nothing to flash.
Doogee X5 Pro can use this tutorial?
I've tried all the procedures set out on this tutorial but TWRP flashes but when phone reboots, there's no TWRP ... Maybe this recovery.img won't work for DDR3 version of Oukitel U7 Pro because I think it is meant for the DDR2 version of this phone or is there anything I'm doing wrong here? Please somebody help me out :cyclops:
hi, currently i am facing unresponsive touch screen on my oukitel u7 pro. Can i use this method to solve this issue.

@WolfW what is this garbage you are posting. Unless I'm mistaken, please somebody inform me where 6.0.1 is for the LG V10?
This is spam, has no instruction as to what it is for, and you have zero credentials (it would appear) to be posting something like this. This thread should be locked and your links pulled until somebody identifies who you are and what your intentions here are.
I would highly recommend you guys be careful about flashing anything just because somebody comes in and says "here flash this"

Read some of the replies over there.
This is useless anyway, since we can't fastboot flash anything since 6.0, right? This was randomly posted without any knowledge about our phone.
Sent from my LG-H901 using XDA-Developers mobile app
I see there has been a lot of discussion here about OPs Credibility or purportedly lack thereof. I have changed the Thread title to add Work In Progress Tag. And made a disclosure in the OP. So its upto the user to decide if they wish to try it or not.
Now Having said that, like all other attempts to root, it will have a risk of Soft Bricking. So keep a working Stock Firmware around that you are able to flash, should you softbrick. And then proceed to try this. IF you still have failure, then either PM me or report this thread. Otherwise don't dismiss the thread for simply lack of credibility. We all know we start from Zero on this forum at one point or the other. Any such critique will be deleted as OT going forward from this point on.

You need to be a little clearer.
1. 100% Stock is a boot.sin which will only flash when using FlashTool. (.sin is a archive like .zip is a archive)
2. If you extract the .sin you will have a boot.elf the .elf can be flashed with recovery or adb shell dd cmd's but Not Flastboot. (or the last time I checked you could not )
3. So are you asking for the .sin, .elf or do you want someone to unpack the .elf then rebuild it as a .img for you??

Use FlashTool and press the XF (XperiFirm) tab you can then choose which firmware you want.
Or if you want to use the stand alone version of XF (XperiFirm) see here https://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/pc-xperifirm-xperia-firmware-downloader-t2834142
