check settings about look for model name.
example mine is gody 4k 3+32....but really its just a R-BOX 3G
search google for firmware that is in .zip format. example search "R-BOX 3G firmware" quiet a few out there but sofar they all fail checksum.
use app backup and update to load zip.
most of them will fail checksum and not work or will be in .rar format which requires ADB push.
another one is a Chinese program called usb buring tool which requires usb from computer which will work but is hard to understand.
I havent been able to fix mine.

[ROM] ROM for recovery G2X under the NVFLASH

ROM for recovery G2X under the NVFLASH
This method necessary!
If the device is not loaded and not firmware in other ways! (If you downloaded the wrong firmware in the device)
I took the unpacked program files KDZ and added to them NVFlash and created BAT file!
Download ROM: http://www.mediafire.com/?wfokxjxi7rfoaey
Mirror: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=C5LBU3DS
Download APX driver: http://www.mediafire.com/?k559zgjlqkd5ted
Installation Instructions:
Download both files
Unpack it to the C drive to their respective folder
Remove the battery
Hold Vol Up/Down (and keep them held)
Insert the USB cable
Install APX driver from the your APX folder
For windows 7(and vista? please confirm):
Open Device Manager in Windows and you should see "APX Device" listed with an error
Right click on the APX device
Select 'Update driver software'
Select 'Let me pick...'
Select 'Have disk'
Browse to directory you extracted the APX Driver
Select the *entire* 'APX Driver' folder
Accept any warnings, including the big red alert (you may need to disable UAC)
Now in Device Manager under 'USB Controllers' you should have an 'NVIDIA USB Boot-recovery driver for mobile devices'
If not, uninstall the driver, reboot, rinse and repeat
Unplug everything
Hold Vol Up/Down (and keep them held)
Insert USB cable
open your ROM folder:
Run Flash.bat file and wait for the process
After the logo appears on the LG phone
Unplug USB cable
Insert the battery
enjoy!
After that, I recommend to firmware device with help programms KDZ or LG Mobile Update
I'm confused as to what this is? I'm guessing stock rom flash through nv flash? Kind of like odin for samsung phones?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
Can't wait to check this out when I get home later. Regarding the kdz file, what exactly were you able to unpack from it? I've been able to extract 2 files (a very large .wbd file and a .dll file) but I couldn't figure out how to unpack them further, specifically the .wdb file.

Can you post the DLL for the G2X so we can use the LG Utilities to unpack KDZ files for this device please. So far we have been unable to get the proper DLL that enables us to unpack these files. If you unpacked the KDZ you must have the DLL unless you used another method to extract the files from the KDZ. Please elaborate on how you accomplished this. Both phburks and I have been working on this and so far we have had no success.

It is for people that have mucked up their phones to the point where LG Updater and KDZ Flash are not possible. This can be caused by many issues including, but not limited to, people flashing the O2X baseband to a G2X device. This method is purported to flash the entire Gingerbread ROM at the lowest possible hardware level. Hopefully this method is legit, but nobody has confirmed they have done it yet with the exception of the OP. Yes it is similar to ODIN for the Samsung but operating at an even lower level. With the NVFlash capability Tegra2 devices are virtually unbrickable.

Yes. It is almost as good as JTAG flashing the device. For Galaxy S devices using ODIN you still have to have the 'software download' mode working in the ROM and it is possible to brick a Galaxy S beyond the point of even getting this mode to be accessible leaving you the only way to fix the device through disassembling it and flashing via the JTAG pads. Using the NVFlash method you are flashing directly to the hardware through they Hynix flashing chip. I had another phone with a similar capability (I-Mobile i858 - Yuhua Touchstone device) and no matter how badly I F'd it up (I was developing custom roms for it) I had the similar low level flashing tool that could reflash the phone to stock so I could start over with a clean slate. If this method is legit, this is a big boon to the dev community for this device.

So you got them after the LG Updater extracted the KDZ into its component files. phburks and I didn't get that far as we didn't want to connect our already updated devices to the updater. To get to the point you did where you could grab the individual files you would have had to click the start update button. Good work.
I have 7-zip on my computer but I am unable to open up the file I just downloaded. Can you put it in another format and upload to megaupload or mediafire please? I don't want to go through that Russian site again as I got an invalid download. Also, please post the baseband file as a separate download.

I downloaded the 7-zip file to the sdcard on my phone but I won't be home to try opening it for several hours because I'm at seaworld. Lol
Hopefully you guys can get this sorted out. Sounds promising so far.

How about posting a mirror???? the site will not let me download.... unless i visit a sponsor and purchase something... lol
i'll try it out and report back
........... Works like a charm
here mirror link
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=C5LBU3DS
What we really need is for someone to tell us how to create the config files for NVFlash so we can flash the baseband only. The new baseband is there and named 'P999_MDM.bin' if I am remembering correctly. No reason to flash an entire ROM when all someone wants is the updated baseband. If we can get the older baseband file also this tool could be used to revert the baseband also, if someone wanted to do that.

You don't have to buy anything. You just click on one sponsor site and it opens a new window. Thirty seconds later it will enable a download link. You need to click download two or three times if I remember correctly. I am at work now. I can mirror it in about ten hours if nobody else has done it yet. I looked at the files briefly and it looks legit.
Is this supposed to have a command interface? Or are you still typing in commands yourself?

Good question - that is what I am looking for rather then having to mess with the nvflash commands directly.
Update - this setup is similar to Paul's stock ROM recovery setup on modeco.com. As with his, you only have to "Run Flash.bat file and wait for the process". When I could not get off of the LGupdater screen by any other means, I ran this file from his post and it ran flawlessly - but of course I ended up with a 990's device. I tried to get back with other tools and firmware, but was never able to do it.
If this works OK, you would be able to restore your data, apps, or a nandroid and you are back in business.
I spent a week trying to restore my original (and best device as it turns out), so I am not going to fool with this right now myself. I did compare the config files from bot Paul's and this firmware and they are different - which looks real promising, as they are different.
HELP! I tried to use this and the tool failed, now I am getting ZERO response from the device. I can't even boot to APX. I'm freaking out right now!
EDIT: I managed to get the process restarted and the phone is in the process of rebooting. Hoping for the best.
EDIT 2: Phone booted up and it was all restored but for some reason the baseband was not updated :\
Did you run by using the flash.bat file? Did you hold volume up and down for the entire flash process?

Did you have old of new baseband on before flashing? What was the state of your G2X before running this?
UPDATE: It appears that this works - but would like to 100% confirm. After all the disasters that occurred from running the LGupdater tool, this would be an important fix and should be stickied at some point. Current members know of the updater problems, but new buyers and member may not - so many may still have this problem down the road.
Therefore, I believe this is an important enough item to bring to closure and make readily available.
U saved my phone's life
THANK YOU THANK YOU
followed instructions restored completley to stock just like how i got phone out of box 2 weeks ago.
I was running eaglesblood v8 and had altered the vold.fstab file to switch mounts
from sdcard to internal and after that point i rebooted and media scanner said damaged sd card well i figured it just to be like an extension of a permission of sorts. and thought if formated it would the paths would switch no problem.
im actually kind of having a hard time rembering exactly what steps i did take to **** it up royally. but went into clockwork 5 to flash another rom from internal storage or same i cant rember now and did factory reset then all hell broke loose .
couldnt mount nothing except for system i tried formating sd card even though i dont have one probally ended up formating internal lol. formated system,
re flashed all recoverie versions including stock. i was getting so mad i called google HA by the way they got some pretty good music when u have to hold.
only thing i didnt try was to load up a rom on sd card and mount that but i really doubt it would have worked and plus i couldnt even use phone to do it lol
i need to go buy drive saved me some serious cash I would say this should be enough confirmation!!

Hi!
I'm using Prestigio 5000 duo and this method does not seem to work for me. Mostly the script remains in the infinite loop, sometimes it said it completed however there was a mount - no permission error and no rotting was done.
I also tried MTK tools without any luck. Is there any other way?
My version is: PAP5000DUO.V20130419.V1.0.10
Please help! I'd like to create a backup (install CWM) and fix the jumping wifi mac address bug. (apply custom mac address). Rooting is needed.
Thanks!
It seems like I have JB 4.1.1. and this one works for 4.0 only. I'm looking at this solution ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2245259 ) but I haven't been brave enough to start it as I first tried to read back the recovery from the phone before flashing the new, it does not work (0% does not move). Also when I cat the proc/mtd file in abd shell it returns an empty list.

Now I was able to read back but cannot download the recovery: SP Flash Tool Error 8038. I have Prestigio PAP5000Duo.
I have MTK6577 scatter file (MT6577_Android_scatter_emmc.txt). Should I press upgrade instead of download? Will it work with only a single recovery file?
Thanks!
OK, I figured out it myself. The process did not work with the scatter file that was provided with the recovery image. Using MTKDroidTools it was two clicks to create one. (/prec/mtd was empty, that was a nogo).
Now it works. Unfortunately mac address changing does not work even with root. I get random every time. What a pity...

Custom ROM for THL W1+

I hope I've posted this in the correct place. Apologies if not... I'm sure a moderator will move to correct place.
Hi everyone,
I’d like to share my THL W1+ custom ROM with you all.
It is based on a CJ ROM which I believe is the international ROM version.
Natively, the CJ ROM had some benefits over the stock standard Chinese THL ROM such as not showing Chinese cities in call log etc.
I cant remember all of the tweaks I've made in this custom ROM as it was "cooked" over an extended period of time but here are a few…
Google Apps working and upgraded
Default IME keyboard upgraded
Removed Chinese Apps and input methods
Removed factory reset option from settings to prevent reboot loop (use custom recovery to reset)
Improved screen brightness
updater-script changes for Wi-Fi fix
Included Facebook, Skype and Flash in DATA partition (can be uninstalled)
build.prop changes: font size, English language is default, time zone default to Pacific/Auckland
Download and use at your own risk. No responsibility is taken for damage done to your phone through using this ROM.
I’ve included in this download package everything I can think of that you'll need including the CJ ROM, a version of SP Flash Tool, the update.zip file, zip files to root and unroot the phone plus ADB and VCOM drivers.
The all-inclusive package can be downloaded from here…
http://www.mediafire.com/?p08zo4jwypz23
It is split into four compressed files. Use software such as 7zip to uncompress.
#1 First, flash your phone via SP Flash Tools with the stock CJ ROM. I’ve added a custom recovery to the ROM which you will require later to install the update.zip file.
If you do not know how to flash your phone here is a great tutorial... http://bm-smartphone-reviews.blogspot.co.nz/2012/05/mt6575-flashing-tutorial.html
#2 Once you have successfully flashed the CJ ROM you need to install the update.
Copy the update.zip file to your microSD card or power on the phone and copy to internal storage.
Remove your battery and reinsert it.
Hold down the Vol+ button and power on. You should boot into recovery mode.
Now using your volume keys you can select the update from zip option (power button is select). Choose the update.zip file you copied to your phone and confirm.
Wait for the update to complete and then reboot.
That should be it!
Hope you enjoy this ROM.
Invalid imei
I install your rom and is perfect. i manage to unbrick my W1+ with this rom. only the imei is invalid and i cant restore them. i see a folder named imei drivers (something like that ) in your pachage. how i can use them to restore the imei. i tried meny tutorials from the net but still nothing
thanks for your time
Aris
Hello, it is good to hear people are using the ROM.
I think the folder you are referring to is one inside the DRIVERS folder and simply contains CDC driver files.
I've not had any IMEI issues on the W1+ so can't speak from experience but I would suggest trying the following...
ROOT the phone using the root update.zip in the package.
Download MTK Droid Tool... http://www.mediafire.com/download/a41a0u73dc7rw2h/MtkDroidTools_v248.zip
MTK Droid Tool has a Write IMEI function.
Once your phone is rooted make sure USB debugging is turned on (Settings > Developer options).
Failing that, another option would be to download Mobile Uncle Tools from Google Play. Again, this requires root privileges and you'll need to connect to a Wifi network as your SIM's are not working. I understand this app also has IMEI tools.
Hopefully this works for you.

Thanks for youe reply. mtk droid and mobile uncle didn't work. Finally i found this "THL W1 INVALID IMEI TOOL 4.0.4" and i cewate a new imei file and replace it inti the phone root and now everything is ok.
your rom is smooth. hope to upgrade it to android 4.2 .....
Thanks for the update and info. Glad you got it sorted.
No plans to release another ROM for this phone as it is no longer available.

Trojan
Had any one else had a warning about a Trojan hidden in device management 1.0
Have re flashed more than once trying to deal with chrome err_connection_refused problem, every time the Trojan is back, you have to use titanium to get rid of it.
Tablet is brick!
I have a P98 3G A9H8. I used the flash tool here to install the ROM using the "download" option & I got an error that the ROM is not there. I tried to start my tablet immediately & I could not.
Then I chose the "firmware update" option and it came back with a list of errors (3 errors). I tried to power up the tablet again- again fail- nothing happens at all. Not even attempt at rcovery.
In other words, by flashing this rom, my tablet is not BRICK.
Does anyone know of a way to unbrick it? I am thinking perhaps flashing a stock rom can resuscitate it? I googled but could not find its stock rom to download.
Any help will be appreciated.
This ROM is just crewed up!! So many different errors it is not funny. Don't ever touch this- it screwed up my tablet big time.

Help,how to fix this sp flash tool error? STATUS:DA_HASH_MISMATCH 0xC0070004

Hello to all,
firstly i hope i am opening this thread correctly because i am a junior member here at XDA.
Secondly,i recently bought an CUBOT P20(mt6750t) which so far has been a great device according to me. After installing so many apps i decided to re-flash it,and after doing so there was no sim signal. In the quest of fixing this problem i formatted my device following a thread here at XDA about restoring my device's imei which is in the purchase's original box. At the moment that i formatted my device using "AUTO FORMAT FLASH-FORMAT WHOLE FLASH" in SP FLASH TOOL,i was running AOSP Android 9.0(GSI image) which i flashed using ADB(these actions didn't fix the signal issue related to nvram.bin too),this is where i decided to restore the imei directly.
-The grave mistake : so after no success with trying to fix the sim signal by flashing AOSP Android 9.0 i decided to follow this guide in XDA : Link to tutorial. After following the extreme method, this annoying error started to appear when trying to re-flash in order to perform the 2nd step in the extreme guide: Error : STATUS_DA_HASH_MISMATCH(0xC0070004).
-My phone is still responsive,it is not totally dead.
-I've tried almost everything,i even formatted my laptop because after so many attempts i lost track of my actions.
After re-installing windows 8.1 i retried to flash my phone again,but i encountered the same errors as above(before trying to re-flash my cubot,i installed the drivers,re downloaded the firmware from the official site,etc).
I am mentally devastated now because this is not my device,it is my brother's...I would be really grateful if anybody helps me fix this.
Thanks in advance to all.

Hello,thank you very much for trying to help me out.
I've read the meaning of that error and i've tried to follow the instructions on that page too,but the version of sp flash tool stated in the solution throws an error related to my scatter file,it says it's not valid.
I've opened the scatter file to see if it is valid or not,and it seemed fine to me. Also the same scatter works fine with other versions of sp flash tool too.
Also can you tell me what threads are those where i can get this post shared? I thought that posting in QA was the right place.

Factory reset your PC or backup your data then wipe and reinstall Windows, your drivers and SPFlashtool then try again.

Disable antivirus?
Try a different PC with different versions of SPFlashtool?
Factory reset device if you can get to recovery?

Have you ever heard that calculating a checksum for the scatter file can fix this?
I'll also try with windows 7 in a couple of minutes.

If the file is not complete and doesn't equal the checksum, then yes, this means you need to download the file again and then verify the checksum, if it is a match, Try flashing it.

I generated an checksum.ini for the scatter file and now SPFT throws this error : ROM[preloader] checksum mismatch : checksum_config[0x0], checksum_val[0x54e8]
I know i have to edit the checksum.ini file and replace 0x0 with 0x54e8,but the checksum_config is nowhere to be found.
Is this an indication that the preloader is causing all this? And also where can i find the checksum_config?
I also have to mention that this is a fresh download of the phone's firmware.
this is my checksum's content :
[VERSION]
VERSION=V1
[IsEnableChecksum]
CHECKSUM_SWITCH=1
in the scatter file,this is the preloader info :
partition_index: SYS0
partition_name: preloader
file_name: preloader_k50v1_64.bin
is_download: true
type: SV5_BL_BIN
linear_start_addr: 0x0

Edit : I modified the preloader's checksum inside the checksum.ini and set its value to preloader=0x54e8.
After doing so and choosing the scatter inside SPFT for reflash,it throwed another nearly similar error as above but with changed values : ROM[preloader] checksum mismatch : checksum_config[0x0], checksum_val[0xb530]. This is weird.
Please Help

I'm in the same boat. My phone bricked itself after a bootloop issue, trying to flash the official ROM and I get the ERROR: STATUS_DA_HASH_MISMATCH (0xC0070004) every time, I've tried different versions of SP flash tool, different release versions of the ROM, with the mediatek drivers and with the standard windows 10 ones (andrid recognised in the device manager correctly).
Did you have any luck fixing it?

No,i couldn't fix it bro.Calculating a checksum for the scatter file maybe can fix that,it didn't work for me...but it doesn't necessarily mean it won't work for u too.
Tried and tested

I tried that but just got errors from the checksum generator. The ROM is a version that does require checksum so it shouldn't make a difference with that.
Im going to try installing Windows 7 with the VCOM drivers as windows 10 seems to be using its own. My phone gets recognised by the pc when plugged in so I know it's still being detected.
This error code seems to have no fix yet.
This is my plan to ty find a solution &what has already been tried (for the devs to help diagnose and those with the same problems):
1: Try different versions of SPFT - DONE
2: Try different release versions of the ROM - DONE
3: Try installing MTK drivers manually - DONE (windows 10, already has them but tried anyway)
4: Try different USB ports - DONE
5: Try different cables - DONE
6: Try different PC - DONE (were all windows 10 though)
7: Try different button press combinations - DONE
NEXT STEPS:
1: Try Windows 7 which require drivers to be installed manually
2: Disassemble phone to remove battery
3: Try removing drivers in windows 10 using USBDeview to force manual VCOM drives install
4: Try to regenerate Checksum and fix the error displayed when it fails
5: Use specific .BIN as download agent instead of the Mediatek_ALL one (as referenced in the error codes list of meanings)
6: Try installing Linux to test that
7: order a new motherboard
8: Curse the fact that I have come across the only error that seems to have no solution available and no forum with an actual working option (despite them being listed as solved).
I'll keep you updated if I find one. Hopefully a Dev will be able to help with more input.
There seems to be an increase in this error over the last 2/3 months, I'm wondering if that's windows 10 /driver related. There is 1 video on YouTube that solved it in 2018 but that's in hindi and has a link to 2 download files that are no longer available.

I've tried absolutely all of the steps that you have described,and nothing worked for me.
As per the checksum,u got to try different versions,because some of the checksum calculators are faulty...and calculating the checksum only for the scatter should do it(if the problem is being cause by the checksum),but u need to try out whatever solution u can imagine because at this point there aren't much bad things that can still happen to your device.
I'll try generating some others then. I've posted in my phones official community group asking for answers as well. It's the official release (2 of them) and 2 unofficial versions, all are having the same issue so I don't think it's related to the files themselves, rather some issue with the way SPFT and windows. The S2 Pro has efuse protection which might be an issue but that is just the bootloader. I cannot believe every forum post online has no actual solution. I'll keep trying and see if something will work.
