You need to flash the ROM prior to the kernel. Doing otherwise, the ROM (usually including a kernel) will overwrite your kernel of choice.
ALSO, it doesn't seem like this package is compatible with your phone since it errors out at the model number. Choose a different ROM or contact the ROM maker.
Edit: If you want to transfer something else to your phone, go to Mounts and storage then Mount USB storage. Then connect your phone to your PC, a new drive should pop up. This is your SDcard contents.

Thanks a lot,
Now my computer can see/copy to/from it.
now I need to find some right/compatible ROMs only, right? no need for kernel.

Most if not all ROMs will include a kernel.
Yes you need a ROM that is compatible with your phone. It is strange that this one doesn't work, might be a bad download or simply an error for some reason. Post in fergie's thread, who did the ROM port, if you need help.

Hi,
I am using rooted nexus s (gsm version) i9023 ics 4.0.4 build IMM76D SCLD versions in India and i am trying to manually update my nexus s to the latest jellybean os but whenever i try to flash the update file name : 9ZGgDXDi.zip(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1736645) i get the following error :
"apply_patch_check "/system/lib/libGLESv1_CM.so" .......installation aborted status 7"
Can someone please help me? I wasted my entire day searching for a solution but did not find anything which can help me.:crying::crying::crying:
I got this error, too, when I tried to do it manually.
Interestingly, when the OTA came, it gave me the same error. Anyone have any ideas?
By the way, turning off script asserts and signature verification in clockworkmod didn't help. Which seems odd, to me.
yeahhhhhh found the way finally updated to jelly bean
Hey, flobin
Yeahhhhhhh i finally updated my nexus s to jelly bean 4.1.1 . After some self study i found that the error i because i had installed Chainsfire 3d which was causing problem. So here's the solution
1. Go to the Chainsfire 3D app
2. Use the option inside the app to uninstall the driver and reboot
Now your phone is restarted
3. Then Go to System Settings
4. Applications
5. Search for Chainsfire3d
6. Clear Cache and Data (do not skip the this step)
7. Uninstall the application
8. Delete all the libs on your SD card
That's it you have solved the problem
Now to manually update the phone put the 9ZGgDXDi.zip and follow the below mentioned steps :
1. Rename the zip file to "update.zip".
2. Now restart your phone in recovery mode.
3. If you are using an rooted device with custoom recovery please toggle off the signature verification and script asserts.
4. Now from the recovery menu go to the option of update from sd card
5. Select the update.zip file placed on your SD card
6. After the completion of the process reboot the system.
7. That's it, now wait for few minutes and now when phone restarts your phone is now working on jelly bean. Enjoy....:laugh::laugh::laugh:
Hm. I don't have Chainsfire 3D though. Maybe it's another app!

Heya,
Since there is not enough info on the web regarding the rooting procedure for Videocon A55 HD and custom recovery for this awesomely smooth device, I'm uploading the necessary files and step by step guide. Hope it helps all the users of this device.
Remember rooting would tamper the warranty of the device and should be exercised carefully. The procedures mentioned below have been personally tested by me however I take no responsibility in case you ruin your device although I would be here to help you in such a scenario. Besides this the rooting script was not created by me and all the credit goes to the respective developer.
1. Rooting Procedure
Make sure you have enabled "USB Debugging" under Developer Options on your phone.
Keep your phone disconnected from computer via USB
a) Download and Install the ADB Interface driver for MTK 6589
Link to ADB Drivers
b) Download and extract the rooting package
Link to the Rooting Package
c) Now go to the extracted package and open a command prompt to that location as Administrator.
d) Type run.bat in Command Prompt and a message must appear "Press enter to root your phone..."
e) Press any key
f) Now after a few seconds the message should be " * daemon started successfully *"
g) Now connect your phone via USB to the computer
h) The cmd would automatically start pushing the necessary files onto your phone and when the process completes your phone will restart
Now you are rooted.To check install any Root checker application from playstore. Remember to grant permission while running Root Checker app when a pop up appears. It is suggested to update the SuperSU app from playstore and execute it at least once after that to update the su binary. You can also update the busybox package from playstore because busybox supplied with the rooting package is pretty old.
2. Installing CWM Recovery
Okie, since you are now rooted, most likely you would require a custom recovery to create full nandroid backups or test different ROMs. The CWM recovery provided here was created using MTKDroid Tools and is version 5.x (Non Touch). Again all credit goes to the developer of MTKDroid Tools for making such a powerful piece of software.
a) Download and extract the recovery package.
Link to CWM 5.x and Original Recovery for A55 HD
b) There are two files in the package , one is the custom CWM recovery and the other one is Stock Recovery (Names are pretty self understood)
c) Copy "Custom_Recovery_CWM_A55HD.img" to the root of your SD card
d) Rename it to "recovery.img"
e) Install Mobile Uncle Tools [MUT] from the playstore.
f) Open MUT and go to recovery update
g) Now you must see the recovery.img in a list. Just select it and follow the pop ups.
h) Now your phone would restart.
i) To check if the recovery update was successful, go to MUT and select "Reboot into Recovery" and your phone would most likely start in CWM recovery..
Alternative to get into recovery mode is to Press Power button + Volume Down key together when switched off.
3. Stock ROM for Videocon A55 HD
Okie, here we go, as I mentioned that I had got hold of the stock rom, so here I'm publishing it. The credit goes to Pratap Solunke (psolunke) for providing the Factory ROM zip.
I have just divided it into update.zip and files for SPFT for ease of downloading. Besides I have splitted each section into 4 parts and reuploaded it so you can download them at your ease. I'm providing the link for the whole folder which includes the changelog, update.zip and files for SPFT.
The ROM version is V7 (2013.07.15) which is different from the original ROM which was V5 (2013.06.08).
You can read the changelog for the updates in this ROM.
Link to ROM Folder
If using update.zip to flash this ROM, then
Step 1. Open the update.zip with winrar, Do not extract.
Step 2. Navigate to \META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script and extract this file only, then use "Notepad++" to open the file.Don't use default notepad.
Step 3. Delete assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "A55HD" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "A55HD");
Step 4. Save the file, put it back to the same location in archive (It will take some time to add to archive)..Done...then proceed as usual.
a) update.zip is for reinstalling Factory Image of the ROM from recovery mode. The zip file is signed.
b) Files for SPFT are to be used with SP Flash Tool and can be used in case your phone is bricked. Do not flash the preloader unless you know what you are doing.
c) To download the files just go to the respective folder and right click on each file and hit download. After all four parts are downloaded, extract Part 1 of the downloaded splitted files and the files would be ready to be used as is.
d) Keep all four parts of the splitted files in a single folder and do not rename the splitted files.
If you have any questions related to A55 HD you can ask them here and I would try to help you the best way I can.
I'm still testing some custom ROMS but none seem to work . So far I've tested LEWA OS and MIUI ROM for xiacoao G6 Youth. However I'll keep trying and update once I have a working Custom ROM.
One more project in mind is to port Custom ROMS to A55 HD if none is available as is on the web.
If anyone of you is able to find a working Custom ROM for A55 HD kindly post it here so that we can have a repository of successful and useless attempts. I'm sure it would help others.
Rooting procedure worked after two attempts. The device is rooted.
While trying to install CWM recovery, get a problem. Can not see custom recovery in MUT. Pasted on both SD cards, internal and external also.

I forgot to mention , rename the recovery image to "recovery.img" and then put it in root of SD card and it would get detected by MUT...It will get detected instantly...Thankyou for bringing it to notice...Just updating the post...
done but some observations!!!!
DONE.
Some observations:
1. In CWM, cant see internal SD card. While, after mounting usb storage, can see external SD card only. NOTE, CANT SEE INTERNAL SD CARD ONLY WHEN TRY TO MOUNT INTERNAL PHONE STORAGE IN CWM. WHILE NORMAL WORKING NO PROBLEM.
2. Deleted.
3. Deleted.
4. Deleted,
5. Deleted.
6. The font size of Stock and CWM recovery is very small still it can serve the purpose.
Do any body have original/stock update.zip from Company?
Updates:
I think I figured out the problem with touch. Uninstalled an application called "Go Power Master" and the touch is ok even after connecting USB or charger. Thanks man. The phone is working very nice after rooting.

Some observations:
1. In CWM, cant see internal SD card. While, after mounting usb storage, can see external SD card only.
2. After rooting, before even installing CWM, got some irratic behavior with touch. Like, while USB is connected, touch was not working as expected, it took long time to make USB storage active as after touching a specific required operation, like pulling down task bar it was doing something else like opening play store, opening game, or opening date and time settings. While unlocking lock screen, it was just opening any random phone application and is not even allowing to go back with back button or home button. Don't know this is related with what?
3. Irratic application were opening while touching different application but after removing USB, things were working better.
4. Rebooted in CWM and first tried to "fix permissions" to avoid that irratic touch behavior, thinking there was problem with permissions. Took nandroid back up, after fixing permissions. Wiped cache and dalvik cache and restarted.
5. Now, till now phone is not connected to PC with USB cable or connected to charging; it behaves better with touch but it is very troublesome to perform any operation after phone connected to PC with USB or to charger.
May be you have faced these issues or may not! Any suggested solution? Do any body have original/stock update.zip from Videocon?

For me the touch works without any problems...and as for detecting internal sd card...that also works flawlessly..i don't have the phone with me right now...Yesterday I was trying something and the nvram got corrupted [No baseband]...so right now it is resting at service center...Hope to get it next week...
One suggestion never install Carliv Touch Recovery on this phone...it messes with the baseband and display...Stick to this recovery until I build a more updated CWM...

Flashed modified update.zip from CWM and phone upgraded to version 15072013. To be strange it is showing v1.0 20130715 in build ie in about phone. All the applications were intact but lost root and also CWM recovery; then managed to root the phone and flash CWM with your fantastic guide.
After booting in CWM, wiped cache and dalvik cache(why? don't know). Phone is working nice. Thanks,

Nice...Yeah, people at Videocon forgot to change the version number i guess...and loss of root and cwm was due to restoring of system.img and recovery.img in the ROM file...so it's normal..
Besides one should always perform a clean install from CWM..i.e. Clear Data, Clear Cache, Clear Dalvik Cache, Format /system/ and then install ROMS..
And yes this ROM is a bit better then the one on phone..I received my phone today from service center and software was updated to this ROM..It felt much better .And the version was same , so this seems to be the latest ROM for A55 HD.. Enjoy
How to flash phone with sp flash tools
was trying to flash a recovery build on CWM site. I think it has spoiled baseband. No sim is getting detected. Any idea how to flash phone with SP tool? Don't have access to service station as am very far.
Edit: Managed to flash with SP tool. Used the files you have uploaded for SPFT. Selected all options and now phone is on and showing base band version, also sim are getting detected. The issue was preloader drivers for windows 8 which managed to install by disabling driver signature verification. Device rooted and installation of CWM through MUT was successful. Thanks.
Try this and this. Its as good as custom rom installation works very well with MTK6589

You must understand that the recovery partition is of 6 mb....and most likely the recovery you received from CWM online builder was more than 6 mb..hence your secro.img was also overwritten...hence the problems with baseband and imei....same thing happened with me 7 days back when I had to submit my phone to Service center. Unfortunately i didn't had the flash image then but it is good to know that it can also recover baseband and imei. And congrats for recovering your phone and I'm glad my contribution helps you...
Just remember one thing...if the boot, recovery,secro partitions are of more than 6mb then don't flash them as they would mess one thing or other...and hopefully you had disabled preloader in SPFT.....if not then from next time onwards please do it....because rarely you need to flash preloader...and a wrong flash can make your device a brick which can only be recovered by Test points.Hence never flash preloader until unless you know what you are doing.....And yes, I already use Gravity Box along with Xposed Framework...Great mod...Besides them I also use xhalofloatingwindow with bubble launcher and lwinrecent ...Both are xposed modules and work as expected.I also have init.d support which allows to make boot persistent changes on device....Along with that a few build.prop tweaks that take my ROM to the custom level...Let me know if you need any of this...
Please
Thanks for preloader advise. was not that much aware and will take care next time. Please share init.d support, build.prop tweaks and their usefulness.
For init.d, use term-init by ryuinferno.

Which other phones has MTK6589 and same config ?
Tell me model number and brand, i will try to upload stock firmware.
it will help us built custom rom with custom features.
@anuj - Anyways if it brick again and need to send service center, please text me imei and location, i will make it done fast for you dear.:fingers-crossed:
Thank you Pratap bro. I'll let you know next time if I get to the point where I need to go to service center but I'm sure that with the ROM you provided I wouldn't need to go to one. And yes people you can ask for stock ROM from Pratap. He has excellent connections and can get you at least the Videocon ROM and may be others . Don't forget to thank him. Besides he is an excellent person who wouldn't shy away from helping you if he can. Ciao Pratap brother.

Summary: I need to access the files on relatively old model of a Maxwest tablet using Android OS and do not have the unlock pin code #. It belonged to someone special who used it for pictures, but it also contains important files that our family and I wish to access; however, we cannot determine the pin code # and we are limited on available recovery options.
The details regarding the current situation and "requirements" are as follows:
- #1 requirement is to not delete the existing files, which means no factory reset please
- There is no email associated to it meaning:
1) I am unable to use a "Forgot my Password" feature
2) I am unable to Android Device Manager
- USB debugging is Off and I'm unable to access it when plugged from laptop to tablet

Hi there and welcome to assist,
Unfortunately there is nothing about your question/device on XDA forum. Try a Google search first.
You'll have to create an account to post in the main forums if you have any other questions.
Good luck
To upgrade a MTCD/E PX3, PX5, PX6 from Android 6+ on using official Rockchip free tools - a reminder, bringing together multiple threads.
First note - if coming from Android 6 - early versions of Realtek dual BT/WIFI (type 2) are not supported past Android 6.
[29/06/2020 - Android 10 - Users are report Bluetooth MD725 Type 1 is not working on Android 10...]
The only fix is to replace the wifi/bt module with the supported "type 1" GOC-MD-725. See this thread for details (placeholder)
Risk:
Also, there is risk associated in upgrading. The SDCard method is known to result in back-screen, sometimes recoverable booting to recovery from SDcard again. If this method fails, OTG becomes the only recovery option.
Two Rockchip Official methods;
A. SDcard Method
Note: To use these methods, your unit must support booting from SDCard or USB. Not all MTC variants are created the same, so test first.
The following is required for SDcard method
- (1) Full ROM in .IMG format
OR
- (1b) bootloader/recovery only image to flash recovery,
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=11zpgoOW4eU6G1tjs7ExsZ2aC4RoZ9KDr
AND
- a 'full' OTA of your choice.
- Rockchip SDCard create tool
https://github.com/rockchip-linux/tools
1. Create SDCard using Rockchip SDcard create tool.
2. Insert and boot from SDcard, follow prompts.
3. Wait for install to complete...and can take some time
(1b) Flash boot/recovery image then an OTA zip. Thanks to @ikerg for recovery .IMG files.
2b. Create SDCard using Rockchip SDcard create tool with .img
3b. Insert and boot from SDcard, follow prompts.
4b. After flashing, remove SDCard, boot to recovery then flash an OTA from another SDCard or USB stick.
* Download bootloader/recovery flash image from here; https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=11zpgoOW4eU6G1tjs7ExsZ2aC4RoZ9KDr
B. OTG method - "Never fail, flash like a Boss, impress your friends method"
*May require Jig, or if lucky an USB A-A cable.)
The below method will recover a 'bricked' or non-booting unit.
If wanting to backup your ROM and test other ROMs, this is the method you want.
The following is required:
- ROM in .img format, or partiton extract
- Android Tool and Driver:
https://github.com/rockchip-linux/tools
1. Install Rockchip driver and Android Tool on PC/Laptop.
2. First try connecting your unit USB to USB using cable to PC. Try all headunit USB ports.
3. Try entering recovery. If successful you will hear the new device chime on your PC and the headunit will be connected.
If connecting via USB method does not work, a jig must be made. See the following thread for details: https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...px3-5-headunit-mod-recover-flash-som-t3766892
4. Using Android Tool connected via USB - Flash SOM using .img file. If image file does not install, erase flash first after selecting .img file.
C. Downgrading steps here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ing-official-free-tools.4123933/post-85473141
Hope this thread clarifies the two free and official methods to upgrade your headunit. Enjoy.
29/06/2020 - Update - Users reporting MD725 - Type 1 Bluetooth is not working on Android 10.
28/07/2020 - Update - include bootloader/recovery plus OTA method from IMG files kindly created by the talented @ikerg .
29/06/2020 - Update - Users reporting MD725 - Type 1 Bluetooth is not working on Android 10.
March 2021 - Update - BT module found - HW upgrade to enable Android 10 upgrades. See my module thread.
August 2021 - SD Card Downgrade steps - from A10, A9 using A8 for success.
Note: Best, most successful risk free method - OTG

In the other rom thread people reported black screens when trying to upgrade. I had the same issue. I used 2 SD Cards to successfully upgrade from Android 8 to 10.
With card 1: I created a SDCard using Rockchip SDcard create tool with the following ROM https://yadi.sk/d/umCvHqCDzHccr/RockChip PX5 Android 10/CHS .
With card 2: I followed the instructions from [https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=79513558&postcount=2] section a) until point 10 / the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?reload=9&v=EhEdeD5RICk until 2:55. I then put SD Card 1 into the HU and pressed reboot in recovery. I then saw the Android 10 update screen. It took about 30 minutes to update, it then booted into Android 10.
The rom seems buggy. I'm not sure if its the upgrade method or the rom itself. I'l try to flash a different android 10 rom to see if it works any better. Worst case I can flash to Android 9 using card 1 / Malaysk ROM.
Hope this makes sense.

I already posted which ROM I used. Not sure if it's special or you can use any Android 10 IMG file.

First note - if coming from Android 6 - early versions of Realtek dual BT/WIFI are not supported past Android 6. The only fix is to replace the wifi/bt module with the supported type. See this thread for details (placeholder)

I have MD725 BT module, i think is type 1, never had problem with bluetooth before, from android 6, 8 and 9, and now with A10 is broken. Tried 3 different rom. So replace with what? I will downgrade to A9.

There will be no way to get this module to run on Android 10. The best thing would be to replace the module.
A10 recognizes the MD725 module as BC6 but does not establish a connection.
I will try all the options listed in factory settings.
I installed A10 with the Boot-SD method, like i did with A6 and so on.
But it did not work like it has to. You have to manually go to the recovery. Inser the SD-card and then press reboot to sytem.
After that the install begun.
Now i am looking for a way to root A10.

How was that identified? Do you mean if you set the module in factory settings to bc6? Or is that the output of a logcat/dmesg?
Could someone with a md725 type1 kindly export and attach dmesg and logcat from their android 10 upgrade?
I can then take a look and try to figure out what's going on. Really wish I had a second unit to mess around on, so I can try and figure out potential mods etc to fix this md725 problem.
I figured out the hardware mod to get working md725 on Android 6 on...but haven't had anyone willing to donate hardware (need a headunit, even without a SOM)
Hello thank you for this thread.
Just to be clear, flashing from sdcard an OTA file from android9 to android10 (without hal9k modinstaller) will result bootloop because recovery and bootloader are different ? am I right ? (I always did it with modinstaller)
Also what I did not know is flashing .IMG file will change bootloader and recovery with sdcard tool ?

Hi @marchnz
Bluetooth MD725 and WQ_BC6 logcat / dmesg
I have Dasaita MAX6. I am trying to do SD Card upgrade method. With both 16GB SD and 4GB SD card, when I reboot from recovery, I just get black screen. Has anyone with Max6 gotten this to work? If so, what exactly were the steps followed and files used? I am trying to use this IMG: https://docviewer.yandex.ru/view/0/...wODEyNDcsInl1IjoiOTQ0OTU5NzE3MTU5MzUyOTkyOCJ9

Use 8GB or less SD card.

I did, I tried using a 4GB as stated. I did get it to work though. Used a different computer with a different SD card reader.

Hi, could you check the files - looks like these are all the same 1 kilobyte file - a MCU Configuration export - and not the actual logs
In my case, i have a 10,1 inch MAX6
This one has a GPS card slot behind the screen but in my case this is a fake GPS card slot.
But i knew there is a sd-card slot at the side of the head unit hidden behind the sheet metal.
So i opened the head unit.
Then you have to make a boot sd-card, manually boot to recovery, insert the sd-card and then boot to system and the system update starts.
so i have a question
there is img and ota files for PX6 on HCT folder
i will need the img file to do this
but can i use the ota afterward ?
and is HCT7 and HCT4 the same ?
