[Q] Cannot flash ROM to MID GS-703 tablet - General Questions and Answers

Hello everybody.
I have a 7" android tablet from 2014.
Model: MID GS-703
board id: EM_M63_V1.1
CPU: AML8726-MXS (amlogic)
DDR: 1GB
NAND FLASH: 8GB
The device is soft bricked. I can boot it.
First logo appears, then second... and it just stays like this.
I can boot into the Android system recovery <3e>
I can wipe Cache and Media but whenever I try to wipe data/factory reset, it gets stuck on "Formatting /data..."
I have tried installing some of the firmwares proposed here and there from other sources, without success:
EM63_TF_Update_20140507
EM63 Upgrade Firmware 2014-05-19
EM63 Upgrade Firmware 2014-12-10
I have tried installing them via an SD-card and via ADB sideload.
It returns the following message
"Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
Installation aborted."
Have I missed something? What can be causing it to abort? Thank you in advance for your help

My OTA update to JB initially failed to but my phone went into boot loop, I was able to get into safe mode and then do a factory data reset (after another 4 attemps to get past a boot loop) then the phone booted up and I was on JB.

Thank you for your reply, I'll try it after backup.
You can't do an OTA update if youre rooted with safestrap. You need to download voodoo and hide root, then uninstall safestrap.
If that still doesn't work (it probably won't because it didn't for me either), back up all your info and flash back to stock 4.0.4. Then install only superuser and voodoo, hide your root and download BOTH OTA updates before attempting to install safestrap and unhiding root.
Good luck

[Q] Unrootable Phone (S2 Plus)

Hello and thank you in advance for your time.
I've a very annoying problem: My idea was to install CyanogenMod but I'm very far from it but I think I own the only one S2 Plus in the world that is impossible to root.
I write here after having read all readable about rooting my phone model, without any success... :crying:
Phone Specifications:
Model Number GT-I9105P
Android Version 4.2.2
Baseband version I9105PXXUBNG2
Kernel version 3.0.31-2705991
[email protected] #1
Tue Jul 1 16:51:57 KST 2014
Build Number JDQ39.I9105PXXUBNG1
What I tryed to do:
* I tryed this method: beta.download.cyanogenmod.org/install; but my phone is not supported.
I tryed to force even if it was not supported, but procedure stops​
* I tryed this method towelroot.com/; but my phone is not supported.
I tryed the different 3 modstrings towelroot.com/modstrings.html without success​
* I tryed with Odin (3.0.7). I followed some online guides (even one on this forum): I found a correct CWM. I installed it. But any zip superSU I try to install from my sdcard (I think it's impossible from internal memory) says this error:
Code:
[COLOR="Red"]Install from package...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E: failed to verify whole-file signature
E: failed to verify whole-file signature
E: signature verification failed[/COLOR]
I tryed super SU version 1.5.1, 1.8.4, 1.9.xx
What's the problem with my phone?
Thank you for your help
Giampaolo
After many attempts to load the superSU zip I realized CWM were never be actived!
I was using Standard Android Recovery system (it's first phnoe I'm trying to root).
So I applied plan B. Deactivated auto reload, I remove and reinsert the bactery. When phone starts I try to enter CWM.
I understood this operation is useful to recovery of Android Recovery System;
But when I'll do it my phone stuck on galaxy logo.
Same as forums.androidcentral.com/sprint-galaxy-s-iii-rooting-rom-s-hack-s/185220-trying-root-cant-get-into-clockworkmod-recovery-2.html#post3094734 (and no one reply to its problem)
i did that unplug cable and battery pull trick but its stuck on galaxy grand logo cant reach to the cwm can u please help me ?

Now I have no more resource. Has anyone a solution?
Anyone with my same problem?
If it won't boot to recovery, try installing another recovery like TWRP or Phillz recov. , also just install the SuperSU package: https://download.chainfire.eu/396/supersu/ trough recovery , this might be the solution

[Completed] ZTE Z5s mini malware and failed ROM

Hi, somehow i managed to get malware on my z5s mini and it kept turning on 3g and wifi and installing random apps and had adds popping up every few minutes.
So i did a hard reset and soft reset and it was gone for 1hour and then it came back.
I didnt have it in safemode.
Now i tried to install the same rom over using the standard system recovery.
I used this one: needrom.com/download/nubia-z5s-mini-kk/#comments
In the comments they say you dont need cwm or anything so i tried and got these logs:
[log]
-- Install /ext_sdcard ...
Finding update package...
Verifying update package...
Installing update...
Warning: No file_contexts
set_metadata_recursice: some changes failed
installation aborted.
[/log]
Since then i cant boot up my phone it goes to the splashscreen and after a while automatically in the system recovery.
Someone said that the recovery wasnt for kitkat and that i need to update it first. But i cant boot it further then the splashscreen or recovery menu, is there something i still can do? or is the phone lost?

Lenovo A6000 failed to update Kraft-A6000_S056_150924_TO_Kraft-A6000_S058_151030_L2L

Hi Guys, Need some Help. I have successfully rooted my phone after lollipop update with twrp recovery and supersu. My phone is running Lollipop 5.0.2. Build number - Kraft-a6000_S056_150924.
So i got this update notification days ago (Kraft-A6000_S056_150924_TO_Kraft-A6000_S058_151030_L2L), and I have tried many times downloading the update and reboot the phone to proceed the update but it failed. I have tried manual downloading from the web (Kraft-A6000_S056_150924_TO_Kraft-A6000_S058_151030_L2L_WCB6.zip file which i hope it is the right file) so i place the file in my sd card,boot into recovery and apply update from sdcard but still it cannot successfully update. Then i tried update from adb from my pc and it shows this message
(Finding update Package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...Installing update...
E:Error in /sideload/package.zip
(status 15)
So i thought the problem is twrp recovery. So i flash Lenovo Lollipop Stock recovery. Switch on my Phone and unroot my phone then i switch off and i wipe cache partition and then data/factory reset. The phone still shows the same problem after downloading and update. So i check When i boot into recovery (volume up + volume down + power button), My phone shows Android System Recovery <3e> Kraft-A6000_S052_150825. Is this the Problem? does it mean i should flash lenovo rom recovery with the same build number to succesfully update to S058?
