[Completed] TCL M2U problems trying to flash. - XDA Assist

Hi, not sure if I am posting this in the correct place but am having problems with a TCL M2U ( which appears to be riddled with viruses and is next to unusable). I was planning on attempting to flash it but can't get it to connect to the PC (any PC), and even the option for connecting via USB in storage settings is 'greyed out' and cannot be selected.
Is it possible to flash it from the SD card maybe, I can access a (Chinese) menu by pressing the power up button while powering on, but my reading of Chinese is somewhat lacking unfortunately.

Managed to get a recovery working on the phone, ( from here http://www.needrom.com/category/tcl/m2u/ ) but when I try to flash the Amigo rom from there it fails.
Managed to flash the Lewa rom though, so have phone back in action (to a certain extent), but would prefer a different rom.
Was getting ERROR 7 using CWM to install the amigo rom, but was reading here ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2522762 ) how to fix it, but when I open the 'updater-script' file in notepad, it does not appear to have any of the 'assert' lines referred to in the fix.

[Completed] [Q] Catch 22... unknown error 110 - HELPPPPPPPPP

Hello,
I received a so called "Lenovo K3" that turned out to be a clone... trying to get rid of some annoying Chinese apps, I used Uninstaller app. I accidentally froze a system app and found out I cannot unfreeze it without purchasing the PRO ver... The thing is ever since that I cannot install any new apps (I get ERROR 110) or even copy it to the system folder....
Another stupid thing I did was to restore it to "Factory Settings" changing nothing of the problem but loosing all of my already installed apps!!!!
I did that after trying to follow a procedure by someone who apparently had same situation, he resolved it by rebooting into recovery using ADB and then copying the "DefaultContainerService.apk" to the System/app folder
I manged to use ADB but once the phone booted into recovery mode, I lost connection (USB) and nothing I did helped.
SO-
I have a Chinese phone not sure if the CPU is MTK 6589 or 6582 , 512MB , 960*540 ( I remember the details from when I had an info app)
I cannot install anything (Error 110)
I cannot connect using ADB while in recovery mode
I cannot copy to System folder (Permissions)
I have no idea which ROM I can use to flash it and I was not able to connect to it when it is OFF (Only when running)
I have no apps on it except some basic apps
I think it is still rooted if Factory reset did not change that
Mmmmmm any ideas???
Thanks!
Is there a way to get system configuration using ADB?
Since no one answers, guess my only way out is to flash.. and since it is a clone with fake specs, I must know exact configuration so I can find a suitable rom, right?
Still waiting desperately....

[Completed] CUBOT X6 dead screen, no USB debug enabled, Stock ROM, no root

Hi there.
I got my hands on this CUBOT X6 with broken screen. I can see the screen just fine BUT can't operate it from its bottom half approximately.
I would like to use this Android phone as a security camera to watch my garage, but without control, I'm stuck
What I'm trying to achieve here is to:
a) start up the phone and load a security app to it
b) control the phone via some "Android Control"-like app (without using the phone's broken screen)
c) set it up as a security camera and let it take pictures for me
Can anyone pls point me to some links here on the forum to solve my below listed problems ? ( and YES I've spend searching and reading this and few other forums for the last few hours and found just what is listed below)
So....
1. The phone was locked with swipe password with the posibility to control only the top three dots, the other ones are dead, NO USB Debugging available, Phone was set to CHARGE ONLY mode when connected to PC via USB - I managed to download stock ROM and Flashed it but....
2. It asks for a few details and requires you to click NEXT which is in the botom of the screen which is touch-dead. So i have searched and found this tread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2786395 But....
3. The phone is STOCK rom with absolutely no settings = no USB Debugging enabled and I do not know how to "modify the default.prop" http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...9&postcount=17 when the screen is dead and no usb debuging is enabled = Can't access the file system (or can I ? )
4. The phone is not detected by the Android Control app at all.
5. The recovery is in Chineese ! I tried translating it via Google Translate via pictures, but that did not shows/offers me the option for entering the command prompt (as advised in tread mentioned in point 3)
I'm too lame in this Android/Linux based sea, so if anyone is willing to help me here (if you think its possible to achive my goals a-c) please give me some step by step guide how to do that. (links to treads would be enough)
Thanks a lot !

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
We cannot provide technical support nor can other members reply to your posts here on XDA Assist and there is no forum specifically for the Cubot devices at this time but I see that you have already posted an identical message in the General Forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2728355 which is a reasonable place to start where members familiar with your device might be able to advise you. I also see a number of references to your model from a site search at http://forum.xda-developers.com/sitesearch.php?q=cubot x6 which might be worth reviewing. Since your device is relatively uncommon, please be patient and give the experts there plenty of time to respond.
Good luck!

[Completed] ****ed up my android/windows 10 tablet

So I got a tablet (Neo Shift N81) that was exactly what I wanted, one that dual boots windows 10 and android. But I discovered that the Android portion barely has any memory and naturally it got full pretty quickly. Then I wanted to use the Link2SD app to expand its memory, but this requires root. One thing lead to another, and eventually ended up at this link (http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/intel-android-devices-root-temp-cwm-t2975096), selected the T4 trigger but on my tablet didn't show any options to install the zip file. I ended up selecting recovery, and the tablet booted into its own recovery. By this time, Windows was gone at the OS select screen when starting up. Android still boots up fine, and when I click the option to "boot into windows", I only get this command prompt-like screen. What do I do now??

[Completed] Tablet shows no commands, the usb depuration wasn't activated, pc won't recognize it

Well here I have a wonderful problem, I have two devices, according to the working one and cpu z:
4x ARM cortex A9 @1.42 ghz
revision r3p0
Rockchip RK3066
Model rk3188
Manufacturer Zowee
Android version 4.4.2
bootloader unknown
java vm Dalvik 1.6.0
kernel 3.0.36+ (eng.candy.20150403.110733)
The device that has the problem is the exact same model and all, however, after plugging it to the AC current, it tries to boot up but enters into recovery mode, none of the options work at all, looking into youtube I found out that I can extract the firmware, so far so good, but, I can't use that method because RKROMDUMPER and RKAndroid_v1.29 need the tablet to be plugged and there is the problem, the faulty tablet does not load in that mode while plugged to the computer.
So I was left with the option of getting into recovery mode and attempt to update from external storage, so far the only "Firmware" or "ROM" I've got is the one I extracted from the working tablet, I have, backup.img, boot.img, kernel.img and so on, the biggest one is the system.img which is near 6GB size.
I really don't know how to proceed from this point, do I have anything usable with those .img files? I have tried downloading a 4.4 Android rom, the recovery tried to load the files contained in the zip folder yet the loader showed messages such as, bad footer, or invalid image or always a denial message of whatever sort you may imagine.
So, I am stuck, reading further more I discovered that there are other methods or even other roms that can be loaded, but the Zowee guys have near to nothing to work with.
Could you please help me with this? Are the .img parts usable or in some way "joinable" like merge them into a single file or directory?
The device was not rooted, so I am left with only the chance of fresh installing from sd card and nothing else.
Thanks in advance.
