Hello Guys, i have to show you, how you can recover your LG P720/725 and 720H. It´s very simple. Since i have my LG P720 i have reflashed my phone so often by this step´s
there give´s 3 methodes to bring your Smarthphone back to orginal
First what do you need.
First off all you need the KDZ from your Phone and the *.cp and *.ap also the binarys
----------- S/W MODE --------------
Plugged your Batterie out of the Phone. Wait 3 seconds.
Bring it back and insert your USB Cable to the Phone. Then Hold the Volume+ Button for 6 seconds. Your S/W Mode will start.
Now Connect your Phone to the PC, maybe you must install the Driver. (There are in the LG Flash Tool Package included)
If you didn´t flashed your Phone and it´s bricked automaticly , you can use the First Methode
--------First Methode ------
Connect Your Phone via USB to the PC and bring your Phone in the S/W Mode.
Start your LGMobile Support Tool and start the Emergency Mode, it will download the KDZ and flash it new to the Phone.
You have flashed a wrong Bin or KDZ to your Phone? Or Your Bootloader is bricked, also Bootloop ? Use this Methode
---------- Second Methode-----------------
You need the "LG Flash Tool Package" and the full working "LPG720 DLL" you can get the FlashPack here p92x.acidhazardrom.com/ccount/click.php?id=15 . This Includes all relevant Drivers, install it.
Here in the Post you find the LG Flash Tool 1.2 without Drivers
and the DLL are from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1937519&stc=1&d=1367761284
The SmartFlash Tool http://hotfile.com/dl/143853325/ed430ad/SFT.rar.html Password [email protected]
--If You have a Behavior Blocker on your PC, disable it ---
Install all Drivers from the LG FlashPack.
Bring your Phone to the S/W Mode, install the Drivers.
So after you installed it, go to your Device Manager on the PC and change the Comport under connections > LG Modem ..... to COM41. Disconnect your Phone.
Install the FlashTool, then Start the LGFlashTool.exe from the LG Flash Tool 1.2. Then Select Manual Mode, choose the DLL and add your AP.bin and CP.fls. Press OK. Goto the COMConnector Button and Choose the Port 1. OK. Click on the Arrowbutton , the Program will be ready. Connect your Phone in S/W Mode now to the PC. It start´s automaticly and flash´s your device new.
After your Phone is ready, check your Mobile Network, if its false,"No conenction" you have to reflash the Baseband.
Use the Smartflash Tool, bring your Phone Back to S/W, start Smartflash and connect your phone. Goto the Register Rom Copy D/L under CP Bin use the *.fls binary. Click the Button "Start" now the Smartflash flash´s the Baseband new.
Now Your Phone is NEW.
---------------------------------------------------------------
My Smartphone is Permantently Bricked, bootloop, flashtool can´t flash anything(but i have used it correctly), Kernel Error or anything else
----------- The Third Methode-------------
So Guys, this is complicated for noobs.
You need the OAMP TOOL, download it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1937574&stc=1&d=1367763391
Now unplug your Batterie from the Phone, and connect it via USB to the PC. Now he will install the Driver, make it manual and choose the Driver from the folder usb_drv_windows, includes in the Package your downloaded.
So now if you have installed the Driver, start the "start_fastboot.bat". Choose your Phone and press the Button on your keyboard, the Tool will bring your Device to the Fastboot mode, if its write to start the mode "Pls wait 5 secondes " is now in the Screen read. Plug your batterie back to your phone.
then choose "install orginal bootloader" and follow the Steps. After you have to all, bring it back to the S/W Mode and follow Second Methode.
------------------------My S/W Mode is Gone-------------------
Follow Third Methode, but hold your vol up button permanetly , this will bring your Phone to the S/W Mode.
----------------------- Nothing goes, i think my Device is Bricked permantenly, fastboot can find any partitions or any thing else--------------------------
After i had this Problem, i fixxed it. So start Omap, choose your device. Hold permanently your Vol up button, plugg the Cable to usb and insert the Batterie. Omap brings your phone back to S/W.
Now flash your Stock Image with FlashTool, maybe 3 Times.
It works for me
----------- Other Mode KDZ_FW_UPD ---------------
i have forgot to tell you this mode. For this you need the KDZ File.
Download http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1949514&stc=1&d=1368135582
Its the same methode with the LG Mobile Support Tool, but offline.
Bring your Phone to S/W Mode and connect it to the PC.
First you have to edit your hosts file. Open it and insert this 127.0.0.1 csmg.lgmobile.com
then start kdz server, start windows enabler. See at the Tryicon click on it and make it ON.
Then open UpTestEX_mod2_marwin
On the rigth side, click on select kdz file. Choose your KDZ.
On the Bottom start "normal web upgrade test"
Then Upgrade Start.
The Mobile Support Tool opens and flashs the KDZ
This was a short Guide to bring your Phone back. If You have questions so ask pls =). Btw sry for my bad English, but i hope you can understand it
Added CWM for P720 maybe P920

Hi,
How do I get the binary files?
Also, the SFT.rar file is asking for a password.
If I have the KDZ, .bin and .fls files, i can use this method to upgrade to later version of software as well ( I am on V10C on P725, I can use this method to upgrade to V10F as well)
please help.
schubeir
ok if you read the Guide you find
The SmartFlash Tool http://hotfile.com/dl/143853325/ed430ad/SFT.rar.html Password [email protected] <<<<<< Passwort
the Binary files are from the KDZ, you musst extract them with LG Extract Tool
you can Use SFT or LG Faslhtool to flash you binarys.
If You have only the KDZ Use KDZ_UP......
Good Job !!!
Dear MasterTobi, hello!
I am trying all these methods, but I can't unbrick my phone! I can enter 2 different screens for S/W Upgrade, one by normal mode, another by OMAP boot mode, bu tin anyone my phone goes live... Do I have to select the port 41 in LG Modem in Device Manager, and after this, port 1 in the LG Flahs Tool? Is it correct? When I try to do this, I got the message "Downlaod Fail" each 20 seconds in the port 1 field at the LG Flash Tool.
I tried the methods in this post and another ones, but anyone works for me. Do you have any idea?
Thank you very much!

You can follow this guide which works for All OS versions of Windows .

Sorry, but if I use your DLl, I got the message "Model Name is different! Chel phone or DLL!".
Also, I tried the smartflash tool, selecting the ap and cp. At the ending, appears a mesage "Magic number doesn't concide".
And finally, I tried the "Normal web upgrade test". This one looked as my phone would return to life, but not...
In any of methods I could turn on the phone. I don't know what I can do know. I am very, very afraid...

My guide is similar to the Resurrection guide which supports 3D MAX, the difference is that I've added some different steps and a slightly different method.
My phone is a 3D MAX, a P725.

oh guys...............
so you have a magic number ........ strange, there is only the error if you have a wrong version
you have to download the LGP720AT-00-V10e-EUR-XXX-JUL-17-2012+0_AP this is for the P720/P725 alias 3D MAX
Success!
Hey people! I got success! After many days trying, I unbricked my phone! I will tell you what I did.
- My phone is a P725. I don’t know exactly where is it from. This information (P725) was very important for me in the unbricking process.
- I used the LG Flash Tool 1.3.77.21 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=984864&d=1333650043).
- Now, the two cheats that helped me to unbrick my phone:
1st: I didn’t use the .dll from the first page of this post, and I didn’t use the .dll, .bin and .fls extracted from the KDZ gotten from the IMEI of the phone. They didn’t work for me. I googled for these files for P725AT, which was the model that LG Flash Tool was telling me that is my phone. I found the following files:
http://freakshare.com/files/e6xssy95/BIN_LGP725AT-00-V10b-ARB-XXX-MAY-08-2012-0.zip.html
http://uploaded.net/file/v6orqts2
2nd: At the flashing process, there is a pause at 80% telling that the phone will reset. In some cases, the reset really occurs, but in my case, the reset didn’t occur. A lot of errors appeared (see the image), but no problem. I just turned on my phone, and BINGO! It was working again.
It’s important to tell that I had to put my phone in download mode using the OMAP TOOL, that can be found in the first page of this post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1937574&stc=1&d=1367763391). Don’t forget to change the LG USB COM Port to 41.
That is my history! I hope that this help someone. I would like to thank everybody who wrote about the brick of this phone (MasterTobi, Karim Kahale, Eklovya Dutta [I'm not certain of how to link for them, sorry!] and anybody else), I believe that is one of the worsts bricks in smartphones…
Good luck for all!
EDIT:
I forgot to tell: all the process was made in a Windows 8 64 bit. It gave me some difficults to install all the drivers, but it is possible, Google it and found how to.
It took me days trying to make Doogee send me these files. I managed to unbrick my device with this firmware.
So I decided to post it here so anyone can unbrick ther Y100X.
It must be used with SP Flash Tool, here is the link to the thread: Flash Tool
This is the firmware :laugh: (extract with 7zip): --files removed--
For me it worked with the Format All + Download option.
-The firmware is stock and provided by Doogee. I got nothing to do with the making of the files. I also do not get paid for providing these files. I just wanna help others. -
Link sharing is on now. Sorry for forgetting about this.
thanks for el firmware, now how to get the root ... xD. My smartphone is underway yet, cost me $ 70
Root can be achieved through kingroot. But it is an app I personally hate, so I used some KingRoot to SuperSU apps and they worked,so good luck!
Many thanks for the original Firmware :highfive:
I hope there will upgrade to 5.1 or a dream.
Hello
i got trouble with that Y100X, tried to root it with KingoRoot, then i want to replace Kinguser with SuperSu, after that it ended up in Bootloop (showing DooGee logo then reboots). SP Flash Tool won't start (also tried to find Phone with adb but it always reboot to fast and don't connect)
Any thing i can do?

Try to flash without the battery, rather than simply turned off the phone.
You my friend are a saviour.
Tried rooting and bricked my phone, Kingroot wouldn't work so tried the Kingo apk which bricked it.
Back to square one now so will wait for a verified root
Thanks :good::good::good::good::good::good::good:

Got my mother in law a doogee y100x. Apparently Google plus won't install on it. Did anyone face this? Is there a workaround?
Hi.
I had the bootloop problem, and I've solved with this firmware. (Many thanks TheSpecialNoob)
In order to FlashTool detects the phone, needs to be power off, without enter in FlashTool mode.
Select a scatter file, choose "Format All + Download" and press Download.
Thats all.

It's a problem on all Y100X devices. Doogee must have messed something up in the build.prop I hope they release an official fix.

If someone is not able to install it , I can try to explain it.
Also I have kept all the necessary files.

greetings from Spain
Thanks for giving us the original ROM.
I followed your steps and selecting "Format All + Download" I deleted the imeis and as I have read on the internet, also the NVRAM.
As I can do to permanently leave imeis? every time I have restored the ROM to modify and not know if I deleted more things to do a "Format ALL"
Someone I can pass the "NVRAM.bin" to upload it to my phone? Any other suggestions?
[email protected]
Regards
Yeah, I have the same problem. After restoring the stock rom, I have lost NVRAM settings.
Someone who has not restored the phone to stock, can upload the file nva.bin phone.
Thank you
Hi,
Okay, I hope this method can help you, so you don’t have to go through the tedious process I went through to fix this fpr lock problem, I personally tried a lot of methods described in forums and finally was able to fix this problem, so I hope this works for you too and you don’t have to spend a lot of time looking for a solution to this problem.
I used this method on my galaxy a5 2016, but I think it will work on other Samsung phones as well if you download the right stock rom for it.
Warning: if you are a newbie, please read through this entire post once before attempting to try it out. It’ll only take a few minutes but at least you’ll know what you’re doing.
since i'm a new user i'm not allowed to post outside links so i'll put spaces between my links to be able to post them.
So I had the same problem as a lot of other guys, I had rooted my Galaxy A5 Sm-a510-fd through CF-Auto-Root, Everything was working fine, But Since I didn't know about OEM Unlocking & FRP Lock (Factory Reset Protection), I Logged Into my google account in my phone, and after restarting my phone after installing an app, my phone showed a red small text at the top left corner of my screen saying "custom binary blocked by fpr lock", now keep in mind I had enabled usb debugging and oem unlocking before but since I logged into my google account, apparently google had disabled the oem unlocking, hence this message.
Now I tried a few methods like a method where someone had said to go into download mode (Hold Volume down + Home + Power) and then pressing the volume down (cancel) instead of volume up (continue) and after the restart the phone for some reason wouldn't show this message again (weird), some had tried this in that forum with success but it didn’t work for me, so first try this see if it works for you, then I tried to flash a new stock rom but I got the same frp lock message in download mode as well, then I tried a few other method which didn’t work and I don’t even remember them (I’m a newbee, and I was confused by all the articles I had read and all the method I had tried so I don’t remember a lot of them, and a few of them may have worked but needed to remove the battery but in galaxy a5 battery isn’t removable), but the method which finally worked for me was this (It was posted in gsmhosting . com by zishhaider user):
1. Download (A510FXXU1AOL1 02.12.2015) from samsung-updates . com/device/?id=SM-A510F or from sammobile . com/firmwares website.
2. Remove .md5 at the end of stock rom you downloaded, extract the .tar file with 7zip to a folder, delete cm.bin and sboot.bin from this folder, open 7zip file manager from you installed program list in windows, navigate to the folder, choose all remaining files, click add, choose tar as archive format and and click ok to compress the files again into a tar format (a better method to re-pack these files into a tar ball is by using a software called unified android toolkit described at the end of this post).
3. Download and install the latest kies from Samsung (it will automatically install the latest usb drivers for your phone) and I recommend restarting your computer after installing kies.
4. Now go to download mode (Volume down + Home + Power >> Volume Up) , Download odin 3.10.7 or newer if available at the time of reading this post, right click on odin and run as administrator, now connect your phone to your computer with the usb cable preferably coming with your own phone, now if you have installed the drivers (from kies software) and if the cable is working and usb debugging is enabled, odin should detect your phone and show <ID:0/003> added in the message section (the number 3 isn't important, it depends on which usb port you use), now check the options tab to make sure only Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time are checked (by default these 2 are always checked, make sure Re-partition is unchecked). I recommend waiting a minute or two to make sure your phone and odin have recognized each other fully and usb drivers are fully installed.
5. Click on AP and browse to the location where you compressed the rom files and choose it, now to begin flashing this stock rom, just hit start.
6. When ODIN is done, you should see a box that will say reset or passed (depending on which version you have, you may see either or both.). At this point it is ok to remove your device.
ODIN has completed the flash, and by now, the device should be going through the reboot screen, if it works for you as it did for me you won't get the frp lock message again.
Any problems, try these few things: Update Drivers, and restart your PC; Different cables; Different USB ports.
Just a tip: If you are in download mode and you want to restart or turn off your phone for any reason and you have an unremovable battery like me, in download mode hold Volume down + Power for 10 to 20 seconds to restart your phone, now if you want to turn it off completely, after the restart hold Volume up + Home + Power to go to recovery and from there choose turn off.
-------------------------
After this process your phone should boot and the red little text saying “custom binary is locked by frp lock” should disappear. But since you flashed your phone after you removed cm.bin and sboot.bin your phone will be slow and you will aslo, still have to bypass the frp lock from google inside your phone, to do that I will give you a link to youtube from rootjunkey which explains it best how to bypass this frp lock inside the phone, or if you have the user and password of the google account you had previously logged in with to you phone, you can enter those and when asking to backup your previous apps choose "treat this phone as a new device" because you don’t want to install the apps just yet and you’ll have to flash your phone one more time with the complete stock (including cm.bin and sboot.bin). after entering your phone either by logging into your google account or bypassing the google acounot login screen, go to settings >> about >> software info and hit build number several times to enable developers options, then go to developers option and enable usb debugging and the damned oem unlock, and from now on before restarting or turning your phone off check to see the goddamned oem unlock box is on.

Now after I did all these things I tried to flash the whole stock rom I had downloaded but I got the message “sw .rev binary check failed device 2 binary 1” and I think the reason I got this was beacase I had flashed many other recovery and roms before and I had screwed up my bootloader version and my phone didn’t recognize this rom as the right one for my phone, I downloaded a few more roms from my own country (Iran) and each time it either gave me this message or failed because it was stuck in flashing either hidden.img or sboot.bin or … . so what I did was a method I learned from someone in a forum (I don’t remember which forum), I’ll post a picture of that method and explain a little bit about the steps or modifications I made. And before using this method, download unified android toolkit, just google and download it, you’ll need it for this method.
link to the image:
s7.picofile . com/file/8250224492/Galaxy_S6_NAND_Write_Start_Fail_Fix.jpg
this software creates a folder in the root of your operating system drive (c Drive in my case) named Unified_Android_ToolKit, inside it you will find an input and an output folder, put the files you want to re-pack into tar files in the input folder, follow the instructions (99, 8, 1, 3) and your resulting files will be saved in output folder.
So the modifications I made to that method was:
The order I followed in flashing was as follows:
- AP: Boot/Recovery/System : these are the main system and recovery files and have the biggest size.
- CRC: Cashe/Hidden : This is some country code used for the region to flash the ROM against, XE is Europe, AU is Australia, and so on, this part can throw you off, its more then for tracking what region this is based of, in terms of localization and language support. And more importantly, for Kies to recognize the region and to determine if there's firmware update available. It is quite possible to have a CSC that can be limited to one country.
- CP: Modem
- BL: cm/sboot : Your bootloader
This is the order I followed and as you can see I chose all buttons and their corresponding files instead of choosing all of them with AP. Each one of these buttons re-writes the corresponding file into it’s previous partition in your phone.
Also I flashed boot.img first, restarted, flashed recovery.img, restarted, and so on, except for the cm.bin and sboot.bin which I repacked with unified android toolkit into one tar ball instead of 2 tar file, and flashed them together, to do this all you have to do is put these 2 together into the input folder and select 99, then 8, then 2, then yes.
finally I decided to try using Samsung smart switch (which I had tried but didn’t work before) to try to flash a stock rom once again to make sure everything is back to normal, but it still didn’t work and froze just like before, so I decided to use kies and it worked, even though smart switch is newer I believe kies is still better, so I recommend you use kies to update your firmware one more time using this Samsung tool, especially if the previous method still didn't fully work or if your baseband version or IMEI is unknown. To do that after enabling usb debugging, open kies, connect your phone to your computer, unlock your phone screen if it is locked and wait for kies to recognize your phone, if it said kies does not support your device or try smart switch just ignore it, it’s okay even if it doesn’t recognize your phone, just go to tools and choose firmware upgrade and initialization, now enter your model number (Upper-case), then serial number, both are on the box of your phone, sn is also behind your battery or at the back of your phone if your battery is unremovable, follow the instructions, at one point you’ll have to disconnect the cable, turn off your phone, go into download mode and conncet the cable again and then hit update to update the downloaded firmware. This time if everything goes right your phone may work even better and faster than before just like it did for me.
one last thing: I had screwd up my phone so badly that my baseband and IMEI was unknown and I couldn’t make any calls, and what’s worse I hadn’t backed up my efs folder, so I tried a few methods to solve this and finally decided to use kies, kies hadn’t worked before but this time it worked and restored everything to normal.
Now this time after i fixed my phone, I have backed up my efs folder, and my stock rom from clockworkmod recovery, and I have also set up a Microsoft/Samsung drive, google drive and dropbox account and installed some software to backup every contact, message, and app I have to the cloud in case sth like this happens again, I learned my lesson, I hope you do the same.
Developers, please correct any mistakes I may have made explaining this method, I am a newbie and these are what I learned in just 2 days of reading many forums and applying them to solve my own problem, so I may be wrong in some of these, so before people try this method out correct all the mistakes I may have made so people don’t brick their phones. Thank you
I hope this was helpful, thanks for reading, sign out.

Thanks, this helped my friend he is a n00b
This does not work with 6.0.1
Just for anybody who has that version, dont waste your time downloading 5.1.1, it wont work if you already in 6.0.1
Why should oem unlocking automatically turned off
This actually applies to all Samsung phones...
But, use the right firmware and flash it using Odin.
Side note:
To activate Developer options, tap Build number 7 times on About phone settings. Then, open Developer options and activate OEM Unlock.
You should ready to go flashing everything. Happy flashing!

1) Have you installed USB drivers?

Hi
thanks for answering
1) Yes, I installed the most up-to-date version of the samsung driver (SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones_1.5.63.0)
2) Yes, I tried 5 different original cables
3) I tried with 6 different versions of Odin, on windows 7, 8.1 and 10.
so I researched google, the only alternative is to do a procedure called JTAG, but still had hope of being able to solve without having to open the device
If anyone has a suggestion, I'll appreciate it.
Thanks
Many thanks
Me and my A5 want to thank you a lot. You saved his life I don't have to use my Wiko View :silly: anymore
Not simple is write combination firmware to the phone, then enable usb debugging and then just write firmware that not erase user data and cache and use free sw or adb command(this work not depend on software in the phone) to unlock the phone.
Simple software is here and the manual.

Thank you so much dude! I've searched the internet for 2 days and then this post came by so I decided to read and do it because I had nothing to lose and hell yeah it worked! THANKS!
Hi, i have this wonderfull phone (jk) which has encountered a problem with failed encryption, i don't know how. It tells me to reset phone but nothing works, wipe data+ wipe cache.
I've google the problem but little to now answers about this phone, just a thing on the official website but i've discovered that my micro usb has some problems too, and the software provided by utok is working only like that (tryed 3 cables same effect).
I can't find a rom to flash it with stock recovery so i'm stuck here trying to pack somehow the unpacked version which i have here : LINK
or can i find a compatible one for MediaTek 6572 ?

Greetings and welcome to asssit. There is very little information on your device and not 100% certain what you are trying to do. I can link you some tools that will unpack an .img file but can you not use adb/fast boot to reset the phone ?

So here it is after weeks of trying to root my VFD 500 I've decided to port TWRP to make it possible.
I have ONLY tried this on my own Vodafone Smart Turbo 7, no guarantees of success if you use on a different device. I am NOT a developer and I work 60+ hours a week, therefore I will not be updating this or offering support if your device bricks.
TWRP VERSION: 3.0.2
This might break OTA, so keep an original recovery (provided below).
METHOD
1. Download TWRP_VFD_500.ZIP and extract (You should have recovery.img, SuperSU.zip and MT6735M_Android_scatter.txt and recovery-original.img) Copy the SuperSU.zip to your phones SD card, KEEP the recovery-original.img safe for future use..
2. Turn off phone and run SP Flash Tool (I used V5.1644).
3. On SP Flash Tool click choose for Scatter-Loading file and select the MT6735M_Android_scatter.txt that you received in step 1.
4. In the list of partitions make sure that ONLY recovery is selected and that it says Download Only in the drop down menu above the partition list.
5. On the recovery partition line, where it says location, click and browse to the recovery.img provided in step 1 and click open.
6. Press the big green downward arrow.
7. Connect phone to USB cable and plug into computer. The bottom of the SP Flash Tool window will go yellow / red as it flashes the phone. After a few seconds you will be presented with a green tick signifying the end of the process, your phone screen SHOULD have remained off during the entire flash.
8. Turn phone on by pressing the +vol button and power at the same time, your phone should go into TWRP recovery.
9. In TWRP click install, browse to where you copied SuperSU.zip and select it. Follow instructions on screen to install.
10. Once installed reboot to system.
Enjoy! This is a one off from me, it worked on my phone. If like me you wish to remove all the bloatware and Google Apps you don't need you'll be able to do this using Apps2SD: All In One Tool [ROOT]..... I won't be writing a tutorial for this.
Best of luck, Steve.
TWRP VFD 500.zip
SP Flash Tools
Hey This Seems cool what is the likely hood of this bricking/bootlooping your device?
I can confirm that this does work, i have just installed this on a brand new Vodafone Smart Turbo 7 (VFD 500).
Thanks a lot for your time and effort for porting this.
I installed TWRP on a Vodafone Smart Turbo 7 (VFD 500) and it works! Thanks...
Would this work on VFD 502?
Hi WildsideUK.
Trying to follow your procedure for my sister's tcl vfd 500, using the current version of SP Flash Tool, version 5.18, I stop at step 6 with some doubts.
In the SP Flash Tool, in that moment, I can not find any "big green downward arrow" buttons.
The only button with some "green" is the "Download" button which has a green arrow icon.
Using that nothing happens.
Furthermore, by connecting the phone the bottom part of the SP Flash Tool does not change any color.
I do not know if I do something wrong.
[Update]
[past some experiment and several attempts]
Following the instructions of SP Flash Tool I tried to do the same procedure by removing the battery from the phone.
In this way the procedure worked and the program finished the procedure until confirmed with the green tick.
Wonderful.
Thank you
Hello community
Can someone please give me valid links and tutorials for unlock this phone, i´ve been here for more than 6 hours looking on how to do this, but there´s always a software or file missing. I can´t even install the USB drivers, or find a TWRP properly.
