[Q] Need help restoring Jiayu G3 to factory ROM 4.0.4

Hello!
I am a complete noob on this topic, but I somehow thought it would be smart to try and update my Jiayu G3 to Jelly Bean (4.1.2?). I followed a tutorial on Youtube and it worked. However, after installing it, I had no wifi/bluetooth. So after a while trying to get it turned on I thought, whatever, I don't need jelly bean anyway. I reset the phone to factory default not realizing it kept the same version.
I turned it off, then hopped into CWM Recovery and installed a 4.0.4 ROM. Still no wifi/bluetooth. I then downloaded the original version from the Jiayu website corresponding with my phone version (20121129-082828), but using it in CWM is giving me an error:
assert failed: getprop("ro.board.platform") == "MT77_H958_ICS" ||
E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip
(status 7)
Installation aborted.
I read somewhere that you have to use the original update tool or something? I tried using the app thats standard on the phone. Same thing, I press update, it reboots and goes into CWM but then says something like cannot find update.zip on ...
Please tell me if I need to give more details about my phone or what ROM I should use.
Thanks in advance,
xSteun.
EDIT:
I fixed it!
I used the Jiayu G3N ROM from needrom.com and I'm using 4.1.2 Jelly Bean. Wifi and Bluetooth are working.

I am facing exactly the same issue, I need to go back to original ROM as the custom ROMs I tried are not allowing me to encrypt the phone which is a requirement for me to access office email. I have tried GThrill ROM, and Lewa ROMs 4.1.2, though both of them are very good, except for minor issues. Can you please provide the link for Jiayu G3N ROM that worked for you, and if you are seeing any other issues, I would like to try that.
Thanks,

[Q] Which ROM is better?

I'm currently running the feb14 build cm12 of daniel_hk, and I'm experiencing lots of hangs and lags now and then... Apps dont run as smooth as when I was on 4.1.2 especially CoC. Really don't know why (but still cheers to the dev for all the effort)
I'm now planning on changing the rom temporarily, while I wait for a few updates. Especially a Kitkat one. What kitkat rom for my P6200 will be the most stable? CarbonRom or Omni?

I recall trying both and was getting more hangs / reboots in carbon, so I'd say try omni. However nothing more stable than stock JB imo, probably due to full sources never being made available for this model.

Have you try CM 12.1 latest build? I use it as my daily, much more stable than the 14 Feb build, using it for CoC without any issues (no sudden reboots). As for kitkat, i agreed with skurys, better use stock JB than kitkat carbon or omni. Cheers

Installation Aborted

Hi,
I have read the post from Daniel for CM 12.1. It seems very interesting and promising especially after reading the comments from different members about the stability and speed of this ROM. I have followed the procedure to install this ROM as below:
1. Rooted my P6200
2. Flashed cwm-6.0.4.5-p6200.tar via. ODIN as TWRP .zip was giving problem. This was also mentioned in a suggestion from another member in this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41214833&postcount=215
3. Once rooted I installed SuperSU and BusyBox without any problems
4. Wipe the data
5. WIpe the cache
6. Npw when I tried to flash the latest build of CM12.1 i.e. available here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=33760, I am getting error. Here is the error message :
"ApplyPArsedPerms: lsetfilecon of /system/lost+found to ubject_r:system_file:s0 failed: Operation not supporoted on transport endpoint".
E:Error in /storage/sdcard1/<filepath>
(Status 7)
Installation aborted."
I am also attaching a screen shot of the error message for easy understanding and reference. Is this something related to my SD Card/Storage?
I created a back up before flashing so I have restored back to stock with that backup but no luck flashing this ROM. Am I doing something wrong?
Also, since I am junior member I am not allowed to post OR reply directly to that thread.
I cannot finish before appreciating and thanking Daniel for his gr8/wonderful work for the Galaxy Tab throughout his projects. We can use these tabs for some more time now. Thanks you so much.
Please help me..

i think i wanna revert back to stock .. cause so far i install to many version of OS, no such as 1 stable..
included latest release of carbon rom, still have an issue with WiFi can't stored password as well, each time on the signal, need to re-enter the password..
message flickering while trying adding some recipent ..

I think any custom ROM can't replace the MIUI camera, i tried CM 12.1 but camera is very upset in terms of picture clarity as well camera app is very laggy and some times gets hang and wont response. Not able to dare to try custom ROMs due to this reason.
It would be really very great if anyone can able to port MIUI camera to these custom ROMs.

Try version 4 of the toolkit.
That worked for me.
Also, make sure you do exactly as the desctiption says, don't change the order of actions (as i did) because then it will not work.
First make sure that you pc has the right drivers (or use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979)
Then use v4 from this link and use the right order (http://en.miui.com/thread-117336-1-1.html)
So first TWRP then root (if you still need it).

Mi4i going into bootloop after flashing CM based roms!
I have tried almost all of the custom roms(latest ones) available for Xiomi mi 4i but neither of them actually worked for me. Whenever i flash the roms, it gets installed correctly and when it asks for language selection, it shuts off. I have tried flashing with both twrp and cwm, cleared cache, dalvik cache but problem never solved. I think the CM has some serious problems with this devices.

Mine is not directly going into boot loop.
Sometimes it works a few minutes (up to 20 or so), but it will shut down.
When connected to power it does NOT shut down, but still.
I tried yesterday the CM 12.1 version from Smoki3 from july 30th and that seems to work, but i did not have any time any more, so i had to restore my nadroid backup.
Will try it later again (maybe tomorrow) if that really does work, or if it was just to short time for it to shut down.

I think I was using developer rom and flashed CM on it directly so the problem occured. I read somewhere on a forum that you should flash it on global rom. I tried it with ASOPA-L rom as it was having the same problem and it worked flawlessly. Now going to try it with latest CM rom.
One thing I noticed the camera quality is better in ASOPA-L but this rom lacks performance mode.

I'm experiencing bad speaker sound after installing this ROM. Is there any way to fix that.
Sent from my Mi 4i using Tapatalk

I'm absolutely loving this rom. I've no idea why xiaomi let's miui be so slow and laggy. This room feels great and everything runs/opens so much faster and it looks fantastic. Cmon Xiaomi, step up your game, miui is way too heavy.
Like other people have mentioned, the only downside to not having miui is the camera. I've tried a bunch of others and the quality is greatly reduced compared to the miui camera. Please someone, please port miui 6 camera!!! PLEASE!! I'll be your best friend.

Whenever i boot ..it turns off...pls hlp
Thanks in advance

It doesn't just say "failed", it should give you an error code, like code 7 or something. Get back with the error code please.

thank you for replying

Now the problem is actually solved. The error(sry did not notice the code) occurred only when i flashed the rom from usb-otg.
It was solved when i tried flashing from sd-card.
And i would be happy to know some good custom Roms for my htc one m8whl.
Thank you.

Thank you dear friend.
I tried to find out the error code that occurred in previous sessions and it was ERROR:7 as you suggested. It happened with me when i tried to install NusenSeven for sprint m8 as well.
Additionally, I tried installing a couple of ROMS
1) BadBoys for m8 and
2) Wolla for m8.'
Both were installed successfully but unfortunately the Radio was not working. Plus both these Rom's kept on restarting multiple times in an hour for the whole day. Even-though it had many cool customisation's i couldn't use it.
Finally, i returned back to cm-13.0 nightly but Still it has two major problem
1) the Radio is down .
2) problem with the Gapps. ( I flashed the Gapps properly after the rom , but when i start my device i cannot find any apps from Gapps package. NOTE: There was a flash successful message on flashing gapps ).
kindly help me.
thank you in advance.

[Completed] Samsung A3 (SM-A300FU) Cyanogenmod 13 not working but 12.1

I have been running Cryogenmod 12.1 for my Samsung SM-A300FU but its UNOFFICIAL and a preview the webpage i got it off says 'Wifi and Camera NOT WORKING'. I guess thats what i get for following my mates advice.
Because of this, i looked at CM13 (Android 6) which i got off the XDA site and i have made sure it is for my phone and model, the SM-A300FU. Of course, being my luck it didnt work. I get the error of 'Executing updater binary in zip' and i have wiped my phone then tried to install it and i have also tried to completly remove all OS and files then install it which apparently fixed it for people, but not me of course. In a desperate measure i even bluetoothed the ROM to another phone then back into my SM-A300FU to get it onto the internal storage but that obviously didnt change anything.
Finally, i gave up and tried to downgrade back to Android 5.0.2 although this isnt a CM zip. Once again, this ROM doesnt work. It just gives me an error saying it failed, no reason in particular.
I have a few issues for a whole range of files. Any help in fixing any or all of these would be much appreciated.
Links to the files I sites i downloaded the files from:
CM 12.1 UNOFFICIAL (Not meant to work fully) - https://forum.xda-developers.com/samsung-a-series/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-12-1-samsung-galaxy-a3-t3273323
CM 13 (Doesnt install) - https://forum.xda-developers.com/samsung-a-series/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-13-0-unofficial-samsung-t3326297
Android 5.0.2 ROM (Doesnt install) - http://www.youmobile.org/blogs/entry/-Firmware-Download-Samsung-Galaxy-A3-SM-A300FU-Official-Android-5-0-2-Lollipop-update-Rolling-out
So to reitterate: I installed the CM 12.1 ROM without issues but it turns out to be a mod that doesnt work fully meaning its unsuitable for me. I downloaded CM 13 but this gets an error. I downloaded a Android 5.0.2 ROM which has an error it doesnt even tell me about.
