My tablet do not go to recovery - G Tablet Android Development

my problem its that my g tablet does not go to recovery mode Ive done everything but I just get a triangle with an exclamation sign and thats it i download tnt and applied each app manually and works but keep asking me wich os I want and I cant permanently change it because the option its not in the settings.dont know what to do.plz help

The triangle is recovery, so you are hitting the right combination of keys. But recovery is not finding the update.zip.
I have some of this documented in my TnT Lite original post, but a few tips (for TnT Lite):
- you have to make sure that you have the update.zip in the root of the drive, and then a recovery folder. So, for example -- if you are a Windows user and your GTablet is mounted to your F drive, you extract my ZIP or RAR so that you have a F:\update.zip and a F:\recovery\command file.
The command file is read by recovery and it tells recovery the name of the update file, and the location of the file. That's why you need both of these if you are using standard recovery (and, because you mentioned the triangle, I know you are using standard recovery).
This assumes you are using the internal device. If you are attempting a microSD card, it's a little different - again, read my first post on TnT Lite for details.

this works perfectly thanks but my TAP UI version says 1.0.1-2967.what now

I'm not sure what you're trying to do. Are you trying to mod it to TnT Lite or another mod like zPad? We'll need some more information like what you're trying to do and where you're currently stuck.

yes to tnt lite

Did you flash to TnT Lite, then?
I didn't add screen verson numbers until TnT Lite 2.1.0 - so if you used 2.0.0, for example, the Tap UI version would still be the original TnT version. Perhaps you used an older version? Did you get the stock vanilla screen or do you still have the TnT homescreen with the Cambridge MA on it?

[Q] not booting nexus one

Hi,
i'm new in the android world and i'm confused.
i just got an used nexus one.
the old owner unlock the bootloader but did'nt root it.
when i got it, i try to delete all the information from the old owner.
so i thought that rooting the N1 will erase all data and give me some advantage.
(one the iphone world jailbreak was fast and easy)
so i take this tutorial (sorry can't post link, google "[Complete guide with Images] Unlock Bootloader and Root Google Nexus One [Mac, Windows, Linux]" first link)
and follow it
i start just after "superboot" because the bootloader was already unlock
the problème is that my N1 don't boot anymore (after step 6)
i try to "clear storage"
but the problème is still there
i don't know much about android but i'm willing to learn
if you have any tutorial or any other help i'll apreciate
PS: i'm on mac
thanks
You need to install the SDK - or the adb drivers at least. Might as well just install the SDK - you'll need adb and fastboot commands etc at some stage.
http://www.99bits.com/2010/12/how-to-setup-adb-on-mac/
My guess is you've flashed a version of superboot that's not compatible with the build that was installed.
Still, all is (almost) never lost with these. I would download the FRG83 system image from http://developer.HTC.com and extract the system & boot images from it. Flash these and you should be working again.
Instead of using superboot to root, flash a custom recovery & use that to root.
Thanks a lot for the fast reply.
I follow the advice of kam187 and download the SDK, the only problem with ADB is the last step of the tutorial, when i type "adb devices" in the terminal, i got a "command not found" (my n1 is connected and on, stock to the X screen)
i do all the step exactly as told in the tuto.
(exept step 8 and 9, my n1 is not booting, i know that usb debugging was one when i got it, but don't know for connection type)
i guess i'll have to use the SDK to flash a custom recovery
do you have any other tuto for that? (i'm new to the android world)
again, thanks a lot for the answer
Turn on USB debugging in the application development settings.
is "application development settings" the same as "android SDK and AVD manager" ?
if so, i don't find any usb debugging setting.
if it's one my N1, it's not booting, so i can't turn it on
if it's anywhere else, where?
thx
Oh ****, of course. It's on the N1. Stupid beer.
You'll want fastboot for flashing like I originally said.
Can you get into the bootloader? Hold down the trackball and press power. If you get a white screen with Androids on skateboards, good.
I think your most direct way to a fresh install of stock Android is to use a PASSIMG.ZIP. This should work as long as your bootloader works. If you have an SLCD Nexus One, don't try to downgrade HBOOT or to flash an earlier build than FRF91.

yes i can boot into the bootloader,
a stock android will be good.
i just want it to work for now.
cmstlist you talk about PASSIMG.ZIP, where can i fond it and how can i use it?
like i say, i'm new to android and don't know much.
do you have any link's to a good noob tutorial that explain how to flash an nexus one?
PS: i don't know if i have an SLCD Nexus One, it come from videotron in montreal (quebec, canada)
Okay so if it's a Videotron N1, it's 100% definitely SLCD.
Since you can't boot into the device, you'll need to access the microSD card using an external reader, or any other means you can find to write a file to the card. Download the following ROM:
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...le_WWE_2.16.1700.1_FRG33_MFG_Shipment_ROM.zip
Copy the file to the root of your MicroSD card and rename it PASSIMG.zip (case-sensitive). Be careful that it's truly named PASSIMG.zip and not PASSIMG.zip.zip (if you're on Windows sometimes it hides file extensions). Put the card back in the phone and enter bootloader mode. If you're on the Fastboot screen, then press Power to select Bootloader. Now you'll be on the HBOOT screen. Wait about 10 seconds and the phone will check automatically for PASSIMG.zip. When it finds the file, it will automatically unpack and ask you if you want to install the ROM. Follow the instructions and give it some time. When it's done, you'll boot into a fresh stock FRG33 build.
From here you can set up the phone, and once you've connected to data or wifi you'll probably be prompted about OTA updates - eventually ending up on FRG83D. If you'd like to root in the future you have many options (especially since your bootloader is already unlocked), but I'm sure your priority is just to have a working phone =)
thanks a lot cmstlist for the explication
i'm downloading it right now
i just download "Passion_Google_WWE_2.16.1700.1_FRG33_MFG_Shipment_ROM.zip", renamed it to "PASSIMG.zip. put it on the micro SD card
put the SDcard card onto my N1
boot into fastboot, open the bootloader and come into hboot
after some time (few sec) i see a green text showing that the phone is looking for an image and don't finding it.
i try to download the file with diferent browser (chrome, safari, firefox) to be sure it's not a download problem
i don't know what whent wrong
The file is a .zip within a .zip, extract it, then rename the extracted .zip to passimg.zip and try again.
still don't work
when i extract it i got:
PASSIMG_Passion_Google_WWE_2.16.1700.1_FRG33_release_signed.zip
i rename it to PASSING.zip
but the N1 dont find it on the SD card
are you sure it,s the right file for my N1?
It's the right file, you can't spell
passimg.zip
i speel it wrong when i retype it, but it's speel PASSIMG.zip on the SD card
i try PASSDIAG.zip to because i saw this name on my N1 when it's looking for an image
it don't work
try it 5 ou 6 time, but nothing
Ah that's odd, its definitely the right file as I've use it myself numerous times.
Do you get the blue bar again, or nothing?
when i boot into fastboot, i can select bootloader
then i'm into HBOOT (un blue)
y have option for : fastboot, recovery, clear storage and simlock
if i don't select anithing, after few sec, i see green text (5 ou 6 ligne) when i see that the N1 is looking for image
it don't see anything and come back to the Hboot screen (same as before)
Well as another way, extract the system.img and boot.img files from the passimg and use fastboot to flash them, can't go too far wrong with that.
I suggested this over fastboot because it doesn't require USB drivers, but no idea why it wouldn't work. I did forget the part about extracting the file.

[Q] Unable to downgrade

Hi,
I try to downgrade my current A500 on HC 3.2 to 3.01 with any success.
I follow to tutorial based on "Vache" tips available at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1276227
I have done all the step, but when i launch PBJ20upgrade.exe as administrator, it ask me to plug again my iconia, it display the current installed version and version who will be replace, click on "Next" button and... progress bar doesn't move.. the iconia switch off (black screen). I have try many times and always the same result.
My current configuration is :
Kernel : 2.6.36.3+ - build : Acer_A500_7.006.01_COM_GEN1
My computer is on Windows 7 64bits.
Any ideas ?
Have a nice XDA Christmas.
Method 1 can take up to 10 minutes or longer to get action. Perhaps you didn't wait long enough.
Try Method 2. It's even easier.
Not sure if it matters, but set your USB Debugging to on. Settings/Applications/development
USB Debugging is set to on.
When you said "Method 1 can take up to 10 minutes or longer to get action." it's mean before seing the progress bar moving ?
In any case i will check method 2 but just a little bit afraid with the " gives errors and crashes but you only need it to root and install CWM"
One small question, with STEP 2, it will replace the current HC 3.2.1 by an unstable 3.01.
Let imagine after the procedure (root + CWM) i would like to put a ROM STOCK as my iconia was delivered, i think it's possible no (and where to find it because i have no img of my current version because not rooted).
And if i do it (install rom stock) it will be updated to HC 3.2.1 with OTA no ? Root and CWM will be lost again in this case ?
Thx for reply.

No Problem. Remember, sometime, systems will reboot. And sometimes, you have to wait. I cannot tell you that this is happening with your case. But, it is best to wait some time.
Both methods, I believe, will give you an unstable version of 3.0
Yes, both methods, will replace the current operating system. But, between errors, it will allow you to run the iconia root, and run the acer recovery. I don't think anybody has failed to do this, except for idiots who can't follow instructions.
I would suggest you download these, and put them to SD before starting the procedure. It saves having to get them from the net. Also, go ahead and download a rom you want to try. Might as well do all things at the same time.
True, basically, you will be without a stable recovery. Which is why, after you install Acer recovery, and install the recovery part, it is necessary to make a backup of the current system. Better an unstable one, than no system at all
Then, do your boot to recovery, system off, hold vol- and pwr till you see the text in the top left corner, then release.
Nav is by the vol - and +. Pwr to select an option.
Wipe;
1. User data
2. Cache Partition
3. Go to Advanced, wipe delvak cache
Go back to previous screen, and select Install From Zip, choose zip to install, and select your rom
Wait 10 minutes or so.
Now, when the rom boots, and it will, if you get several error mesages, then, you should reboot to recovery, only this time, goto mounts, and format the partitions. Usually, you don't have to do this. But, sometimes, traces of the opld rom remain behind. But, I think you will be ok with the previous procedures.
And, you're a good boy, as you ask questions before you do things

Hi again,
Sorry but i have a stupid question. Based on solution 2 for downgrading (by using a SD card) if it's so simple why we don't use it to flash any ROM like Thor or Tabonnay ? just by placing the "update.zip" file on the SD card and boot on recovery stock ROM.
I understand that "rooting" a tablets allow to have full access on it (all partition) but why it's necessary to replace recovery tools by CWM ?
Sorry for this stupid questions but i love to understand what i'am doing.
Hi again, so i have done the downgrade with step 2 but have some issue.
V 3.0.1 is installed and iconia root 1.3 too
concerning "itsmagic" where to get it (when i should put adb push itsmagic /data/local)
Second, for the second part of tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1126364, i need to type some bash command on the tablets, but how to ?

Easier to download Acer Recovery from the http Market, and install it on your tab. Then flash the Thor Recovery.

To make a long story short, it won't work.
Basically, the OTA updates have a special script to run, also, they update the bootloader of the tab, which of course is more or less off limits to use poor people Not to mention the updates are "officially signed" by acer, to allow this method. And I am just guessing on this, but probably pretty close.
Anybody else have anything to add?
I suppose, a lot of time could be invested in creating a custom rom using this method, but it seems more simple to use the "recovery" method.
So it's mean that i don't need CWM and itsmagic but just "Acer recovery" ? i can cancel this part on STEP 2 ? :
5. then install CWM from thor's site (there you can find the latest version) or use Acer Recovery Installer from the Market, or look at the original thread here
6. Boot into CWM and flash whatever ROM you like!
The main problem with the market, i can connect but each time i use the tab keyboard i get an error message as describe on the unstable HC 3.01, is there a way to have an APK version (i can upload it on my microSD card).
Thx a lot.

Yeah, that keyboard is a killer and causes a lot of issues. I heard where if you mess around with the keyboard settings (a lot), it will actually settle down and work with few errors (but looks bad)
Yes, skip the adb stuff
Use your computer to access the android market web site. Search for acer recovery
Download, put it on your sd for your tab, and install it using any file manager app. Then start the app, and install the Thor Recovery. You can get Thors recent recovery later, so it's not necessary right now.
Acer recovery is a tool that makes it easy for people who do not know how to use adb.
If you can't get it done that way, then you'll have to use adb.
The directories specified in the commands, are the locations they will push the files to. The img to the sd, and the it's magic to /data/local
Never used it myself, so I am not so sure where you are supposed to place the files to begin with. I would guess in the same directory as adb.
Thx for help, when you said "Then start the app, and install the Thor Recovery", Thor Recovery is included on the A.R.I apk file if i understand well but not the last version.
2) I donwload a ROM like TABOONAY or THOR on my microSD card
3) Just after, i reboot on recovery mode by using A.R.I
4) From CWM i select the image located on my microSD card to flash my tablet
right ?

Ok, AFTER, you run the acer recovery, install, start app, and install the recovery. Should be the only choice you have
After it does it's thing. Then power off. Then, hold Vol - then PWR button, until you see text in the upper left corner of the tab, then release both buttons.
It will boot to the recovery menu.
Now, it's ok to copy the rom you want to use to the sd before doing all this. No problem.
With Taboonay, I would look at the procedure, as I believe you have to have 2.1 installed first, before upgrading to 2.2. (not sure why he decided to do it that way. Seems like a pain in the neck. I used to run 2.0 for awhile.
Harkon, is also a nice smooth rom.
Thor's V14 is also good (a500 only)
Then, very important. When you boot to recovery, go ahead and make a recovery image of your current rom (yeah, so it's unstable). Always most important to do this, as sometimes, a flash can go bad. Not often, but, better to have a recovery image to go back to, even if it's unstable.
Next, do your 3 wipes. No, not the toilet
1. User data
2. Cach partition
3. Go to Advanced, then dalvek cache.
After it's done, then, you can go back to the main menu, and select Install zip from SD
Then select your rom.
It takes awhile, so have a beer
And ... MAKE SURE you have at least 60% charge on your tablet!!! Before doing things.
People forget, and,,,, it ain't pretty...when your tab shuts down in the middle of a flash.
Nice, totaly clear for me right now. Many thx to you
And to finish, 3 last question (next beer will be paid by me of course )
1) If right now, at my current step (only donwgrade done to 3.0.1 at this moment) i do a factory reset on me main menu of my tablet, what version i will have ? Current unstable version or my previous HC 3.2.1 ?
2) When you said "Ok, AFTER, you run the acer recovery, install, start app, and install the recovery." by install the recovery you mean CWM provide on the A.R.I, there is a special menu on ARI to install it or it will be installed automatically during ARI APK installation ?
3) When you speak about "and select Install zip from SD" the ROM should be on the internal memory of the tablet or on the external (microSD card) ?
One thing that i don't understand yet is the internal structure of the partition on the tablet. As i understand, for the moment i just made a downgrade from HC 3.2.1 to 3.0.1, but we have the possibility to do a factory reset, so i think when we do that, the iconia will restore an img file or iso file from a specific partition.
So if i understand, on my current state, if i do a factory reset as usually, the HC 3.2.1 will be replaced no ?
In any case, thx a lot for time spend by you to explain me all this... this is the Russian POWER

1. Do not do a factory reset. Honestly, I do not know what will happen at this point.
2. The Acer recovery, comes with Thor's recovery program. I think, that is the only one that comes with it. Technically, you can use it to flash roms, but, I advise using the recovery built into the tab afterwards. Usually, this program will go away after flashing a rom.
3. Always in the "root" of the SD (the first file you see when you look at your sd with a file manager).
4. If you're in Moscow, I will take that free beer
Not sure exactly what will happen when you do a "factory reset" I would suspect, the same OS your device came with, but I really don't know. Never had to do it. And, I see a lot of issues when other people try it.
so, today i have installed Rom Stock, Thor and Taboonay... all those has been tested and at the end Taboonay has win (Thor is pretty good but the fact that tab is detected as ASUS is not so good for me).
Many many many thanks to you Moscow Desire for you help concerning this, all is ok for me right now and more clear.
last question, if i want to update current version of CWM (provided by ARI) how to do it ?
I have download "update-recovery-thor2002ro-rev1.3.4.zip" i think i should use CWM itself (on recovery mode) to update it ? right ?
Have a nice christmas !!!!!
Good work. Glad things worked out for you!
I've been lazy, and haven't upgraded my recovery, but I believe you just place the Thorupdate.zip on the SD like you did with Taboonay, and boot to recovery, and flash just like your rom. But really, I haven't done this yet. Maybe this weekend.
Shouldn't be any need to do wipes.
Also, if you want to run a different Kernel on Taboonay, Then you need only to wipe Delvik cache before flashing it.
Merry X-Mas to you as well, but here, we celebrate New Years.
I know it for christman, i work sometime in Russia (near Moscow). Normally for you it's hollydays since yesterday, very lucky people in Russia.
Happy new year to all XDA members !!!!
FYI - if you do a Factory Reset with the unstable 3.01 rom installed, it puts the CURRENT OS back on, this being unstable 3.01. You have COMPLETELY replaced the other OS. This will happen whether you are running a custom OS, or official OS.
You can only have one OS on your tab at a time, unless you do the dual boot but that opens up a whhole new can of worms...

getting back to 3.1.....??????? jessica

I gave up looking. I dont know what happen because i rooted my tab and somehow i cant go back. I did factory reset but no luck. I just wanna go to back to 3.1 so i could update my gtab to 3.2. I know its here in this thread but i cant find it (i tried) . If you could just help me out so i could update to 3.2 that would be a help. THANKS SO MUCH!!!!
JESSICA
Hiya, I haven't done this, but will try to help anyway.
Can I ask first, why do you want to go back to the "factory" state? Do you need to return it?
Edit: coz just having root access does not stop you updating to 3.2...
factoy reseting your device will NOT WIPE SYSTEM and thats were superuser is. You need to Odin flash the firmware of you choiche. thats the best and easiest way, its done in 5 minutes. And i think its wise to not update while rooted as some have reported errors during update and some have not. good luck
Why not just flash Galaxy Task 10 Rom? It's 3.2 and much better than the stock 3.2. All you need is Clockwork Mod installed and you can do that with Odin.
I flashed it with Pershoots kernel and it runs VERY stable. You can also flash it with the stock kernel if you don't want overclocking, etc.
I bricked my galaxy tab. I want to go back to 3.1 so i could update it to 3.2. I dont know much aout hacking so I guess i messed up. Im trying to go back to 3.1 so i could update my tab to 3.2 then root it. However, i couldnt find any thread to fix.
thanks for your all reply. If I used 3.2 rom? will it stay 3.2 if I use other roms? thanks in advance
jessica
Well, a custom rom like Galaxy Task 10 is "3.2" and so yes, it will stay 3.2.
I'd recommend Task's rom, it's much better than the stock 3.2.
And no doubt he will update to Android 4 (IceCream Sandwich) so you'll be able to keep up to date.
Your comments about bricking your device are now confusing the situation.
Can you please write what steps you did (or thought you did), and what your device does or does not do right now?
Also, please be vey specific about what device you have, whether it is 3g+wifi or just wifi. Give us the model number from the box if you do not know.
We'll help, we just need details.
Cheers..
i have the 16gb wifi us version. I used odin and
everything went perfect but still cant update to 3.2 using kies. Kies say your tablet doesnt support firmware upgrade. What I did next is i tried to root my tablet
somehow it wont let me root and giving me this "your storage not prepared yet please use ui menu for format and reboot actions"
I downloaded termulator and root checker to see if im rooted however it says im not. So I cant download any roms or upgraded to rom 3.2.
Ive been searching online to how to fix it for almost 6 hours and cant find a solution. pls help!!! THANKS FOR YOUR HELP GUYS AND I REALLY APPRECIATED!

1. Used ODIN to do what? Put in a recovery image? or replace a whole ROM?
2. Is a firmware upgrade available? There isn't for mine, I'm also on a 16g wifi version but no 3.2 FW has been released for my specific model yet...
3. How? By flashing a zip in recovery? Can you post the link to the information you used to do this?
4. These may give false negatives. Check in your apps list to see if you have "SuperUser". If so, run it, it will show you apps that have tried to ask for root access. They may have been asking but you didn't receive the prompt, and have therefore been denied root access. If so, grant them root and try to run them again.
5. Just FYI, you don't need root access to download/install a ROM, you need a "recovery".
Honestly, I think the best thing for you to do (besides answer these questions ) is to download the ROM Galaxy Task 10, boot into recovery, and flash it. That is assuming you do have a recovery image in place, which depends on the answer to #1 above.
i tried everything. it wont let me root the device. Tab keep saying your storage not prepared yet please use ui menu for format and reboot actions. So i cant use any or replace rom. I upgraded my tab to 3.2 before but kies keep saying its not upgradeable. Any suggestions? thanks!
jessica
Sorry, I need specific information to those questions from my previous post. As stated, replacing a rom doesn't need root, it needs a recovery image.
Maybe some screenshots of your tab and/or computer would help? Or photos, if you can't take screenshots?
Sorry, if you won't answer my questions I'm not going to be able to help.
ill try to post some pics. sorry!

Back to Stock,
Here's what I did to get back to stock.
You must choose the files under the GTAB GT7510 /retail/google edition
First you have to install Clock Work Recovery using this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1171089
Download the files under FilesForDummies 2 mirrors are listed. These files will help you flash Clockworkrecovery and also the retail recovery is included.
This step needs to be flashed through Odin. You also need to root your device after the flash if your not already rooted. You need the Clock Work Recovery to enter recovery mode so you can flash the Stock Files that I'll point you later.
Once you've flashed the Clockwork recovery you should reboot normally. At this point try to root your device if its not already rooted. Look for OneClickRoot I'll point to that later if you don't already have it.
Not too sure if you need to be rooted as I've always rooted my device before installing roms anyways, but you can try the next steps if your not rooted. If the next steps don't work then reboot and root the device.
Start with your tablet off.
1. Push Powerbutton as soon as you see it startup put your finger on the volume down button and press until you see the android. One side is a box saying recovery the other download. Choose download mode by pushing volume down to choose and up to enter you will be prompted at this time just take if from there. Make sure Odin is up and running, choose the PDA file as Clockwork cm4.04 its that file in the zip you just downloaded and extracted.
2. Flash Clockwork file Clockwork CM4.04 etc... using ODIN should be included in the zipped file you've downloaded. Make sure these files are unzipped in the same folder. Now after flashing the tablet should reboot and it would look normally like it did before except you have clockworkrecovery instead of the stock one.
3. Go back to the link I sent you above and scrool down until you see flashing roms and kernals heading. Click on Stock US Retail Rom, this will download the Stock US Retail 3.1 file for Clockwork. choose : hc-3.1_ota-full_sam file, and then also click on the recovery hc3.1 file.
Put these files in the same folder or somewhere where you can find them. Not sure if these are already in the file you downloaded above, if they are then don't have to download these.
4. Unzip the files and make sure you remember where they are.
5. With your tablet on and plug into your usb port transfer the hc-3.1 ota file you've just downloaded and put it into the root directory of your tablet. It should not be in any folders just in the /SD folder.
5. Now turn off the tablet, once off push power button again and enter recovery this time choosing the left android with the box. Push left button to choose and right volume button to enter. Now you should be in clockwork recover orange writing. Now look for update from Sd card, use volume button left to choose and right to enter. Click then you should see the file you've copied on your sd card of your tablet. Click down and then use left volume button to choose.
6. Once there it should start flashing the Stock Rom, once done it will return you to where you started, at this point you can choose to wipe data/ cache etc. You can do that to make sure you've clear everything in your tablet before you actually reboot. Once done choose reboot and your tablet should be back to stock but not just yet.
7. You could leave Clockwork on there or you can go directly back to stock by doing the same steps from 1 and 2 and flash the STock Recovery instead. This will bring the tablet right back to HC3.1 and Retail Stock. From this point on you can flash up to 3.2 etc.
Hope this helps but I can't go into it in any length as I'm hoping you know most of the terminolgy.
There is also videos on this link to help you.
nice
I suspect that if we see screenshots, that the wrong recovery has been flashed right from the start.

Cannot root U8800Pro. SuperOneClick hangs at step #7

Hello,
I have a problem when trying to root my wifes U8800Pro. The SuperOneClick gets always stuck at step #7. I have done everything as instucted (enabled logging and usb debug, disabled fast boot, etc).
Before you say that I should search, this has been discussed before. Yes I know, I have searched and found couple threads, but they didn't help.
I'm guessing that the problem is that I have too new stock firmware? I had this in the phone originally:
u8800pv100r001c00b535
custnorc306d002
But now I downgraded (?) or upgraded to:
U8800Pro V100R001C00B512G001
And the SuperOneClick still isn't working. I don't know what to do. I can't find any older stock 2.3.5 firmwares and don't know if it would even help me if I could downgrade to some older version.
Could someone please help me how to root this phone. I have done Galaxy S before, but it wasn't this complex
BTW, the SD card stopped mounting when I flashed V100R001C00B512G001. I have to take it out and re-insert it to make it work every time.
I'll answer to my self. I don't know if all this is correct, but anyone can correct me if they want.
The stock roms can be rooted in various different ways. Most used options might be SuperOneClick and "pink screen" boot.img change.
SuperOneClick doesn't seem to work with at least newer versions of 2.3.5 at all. It's only usable in older stock roms.
Another option is using the "pink screen" method, with boot.img and it goes like this:
1. Power off, and then Power on with Vol + & - pressed to get to the Pink Screen.
2. Connect the phone to your computer with USB cable.
3. Browse the phone contents with your computer. You should only see one folder called "image". Go inside the folder.
4. Backup the boot.img file to your computer. You will deed it if you want to unroot / return to stock later.
5. Replace the boot.img with a rooted one. You have to find a boot.img specific to your firmware version. I haven't found one for 2.3.5. I'm not sure if they are different between U8800 and U8800Pro, but I guess they are.
6. Once done, detach the usb cable from the phone and restart it by taking the battery out and reinserting it.
You should have now rooted your stock firmware phone and you should see a Super User app in your app drawer.
But if you are going to load a custom firmware to your phone, there is no need to root the stock firmware. In this case you should use Clockwork Mod Recovery to load the custom firmware into your phone, because custom firmwares are already rooted.
It goes like this:
1. Power off, and then Power on with Vol + & - pressed to get to the Pink Screen.
2. Connect the phone to your computer with USB cable.
3. Browse the phone contents with your computer. You should only see one folder called "image". Go inside the folder.
4. Backup the recovery.img file to your computer. You will deed it if you want to return to stock later.
5. Replace the recovery.img with the CWM Recovery file. You need to make sure that you have the correct version for the rom that you are going to load. The needed version is usually mentioned in the rom description. I think the latest one is this: [Recovery] Unofficial CWM Recovery 5.0.2.7[u8800pro&u8800] (?)
6. Once done, detach the usb cable from the phone and restart it by taking the battery out and reinserting it.
7. You can now install custom roms with CWM Recovery by holding volume + and power to boot up your phone. Look at the install instructions of the rom you are going to install.
Be sure to backup your phone with CWM Recovery as soon as you have installed it in case anything goes wrong.
See how to create nandroid backups with CWM Recovery here.

I'm going to reply to this thread as this is kind of on topic... could someone more experienced answer at least some of the questions below, thanks.
Does anyone know where I could find stock firmwares for U8800Pro? I'm having hard time to find any even from Huawei's site. I only found this there and that says it's only usable in Russia.
I had this in the phone originally when I purchased it:
u8800pv100r001c00b535
custnorc306d002
Was that the newest stock firmware? Where can I find the newest one?
Is there a "rooted" boot.img for the latest stock firmware? Is the boot.img different for every firmware version? Is it different between U8800 and U8800Pro?
Is this the latest CWM Recovery and should I use that? I'm going to put some ICS rom in to the phone after I've tested the official demo version which is coming "soon" I hear.
I'll answer to my self once again..
Here's some stock firmwares for U8800Pro:
http://madmodder.co.uk/huawei/u8800-pro/huawei-u8800pro-firmware-list.htm
I guess the newest stock version is V100R001C00B572G001.
For the "rooted" boot.img I have no clue where to find one, or are they firmware specific or different between U8800 and U8800Pro.
As to the CWM, here's the official releases. There's no releases for U8800Pro, I don't know if it has different recovery.img as the U8800 has. I guess the one which I linked to is the latest "unofficial" version. Reading the comments seems to point that it works for some and some have problems. I guess that should be used still if you want to go for ICS rom.
Anyone care to comment on any of this?
I have the same problem i did every thing perfectly and i couldn't get to root my u8800 pro ... i tried super one click, z4root , easy root, unlock root , changing boot.img, ... i have my drivers installed correctly.. checked usb debugging.. disable fast boot....switched to logged on ( project menu ) and i still got stuck on step 7 on super one click.. another program mentioned.. ( adb server out of date.. ) and ( failed to copy superuser.apk due to system read only..) ... so I'm stuck now for 2 month..can any one help ???

[GUIDE] HTC Dual Sim 802w, 802t, 802d S-Off, Recovery, Updates 4.2.2, ROOT, Google

Alright.
Let me first give an overview of where it all begins. If this is the state you are currently in then this guide is for you. To make this guide, I have benefitted heavily from various threads all across the web. So I decided to put it all at one place. This guide would not have been possible without a very comprehensive thread started by "kiwiandy" in the same forum and many others. Ok, so here it is. Please read below, if any of the situations resemble yours, this guide is for you.
ALL CREDITS OF BELOW FILES GOES TO THEIR OWNERS. I AM MERELY REPLICATING THE INFORMATION WITH A GUIDE AND TWEAKS FOR 802W. IF ANY VIOLATION OF ANY RIGHTS TAKES PLACE, PLEASE PMA ND FILE WILL BE REMOVED.
You have purchased HTC Dual SIM from China which is the UNICOM version
You have purchased HTC Dual Sim 802w from the web or any other place and have the chinese phone shipped to you. However you are not sure if its China UNICOM version.
When you go into settings and "About" there is an option of "Software Updates"
When you go into settings and "About" there is NO Software Update option in your 802w HTC dual sim
You want to get rid of Chinese bloatware and are looking for a straightforward Cleaning program that DOES NOT require root.
You want to be able to have custom recovery and flash updates.
You want to or DO NOT want to ROOT your device. (If its not already rooted)
You want the "LOCKED" bootloader and do not want the complications of HTCDEV or "UNLOCKED" or "TAMPERED" bootloader. (Although this guide works for both)
You want English Language and Google Services.
Let me first clear a bit of air with respect to the common terms used in HTC world. One may and may not agree to this. However, as you read through the guide there will be substantial evidence to prove this.
S-OFF: This sits at the top. If you are not Root and if you are not having an "UNLOCKED" bootloader you can stil do ANYTHING with your phone including installing custom recovery and installing images and updates. With a S-Off you dont even need custom recovery to install OTA updates via zip files that you have already downloaded. You can update via the android Stock recovery. You dont need to have root access or unlocked bootloader. S-Off is basically security off and allows unsigned zips to be flashed. With a S-OFF you can instal custom recovery like CWM or TWRP even if you are NOT rooted or even if you have a LOCKED bootloader.
Root happens once you have a locked bootloader. You may or may not have S-Off. Most work can be done if you are rooted. So you dont really need S-OFF. However, those who do not wanr "UNLOCKED" or "Tampered" bootloader written on top of their boot screen they should consider s-off rather than root. Root is basically access to system files and not certain partitions of your phone.
UNLOCKED bootloader allows you have root acces. But as we move on, this method will die and the flashign method of Hboot will rise. This guide can eb used by all the people who either have UNLOCKED Bootloader or LOCKED bootloader or Tampered.
Ok, I think that pretty much clears it. I have tried to answer issues that require a lot of searching here. One more basic thing that needs clearing.
There are two ways to flash recovery or updates if you are S-OFF. One way is to use the HTC DEV method to unlock bootloader and instal via "adb" and fastboot commands.
The second easier way is to use a "Locked" bootloader but S-OFF and No root method to instal ROMS and custom recovery bia "HBOOT" method.
For HBOOT method you need flashable ZIPS. To instal via fastboot requires IMG files. Benefit of this method is that you can do factory reset from the phone and phone will revert to its factory position. No need for doing ti from clockwork mod.
Now Over to the GUIDE. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE DONE TO YOUR PHONE. IF YOU DONT UNDERSTAND ASK. IF YOU AR ENOT SURE AND DO NOT OWN YOUR OWN ACTIONS DONT TRY THIS.
Please read the whole thread. Reading one part wont help. Poeple with already unlocked bootloaders need to Relock bootloader first. I WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE.
Download the Stock 802w firmware RUU file from the following link http://d-h.st/aj4.
This will be a zip format. If you are on Windows, Rename the file as "PN07IMG". If you are on MAC rename the file as "PN07IMG". There is no need to add ".zip" since the downloaded file already has the extension of zip. Save this file in a folder on your PC named "Stock"
However, if after applying the procedure below, you get stuck at "verifying image" or "image not found" please remove the ".zip" exptension from the file. Just rename it. Do not UNZIP.
Download the drivers for your phone. You can google it. Its available easily for download. Even if your phone is recognized by your PC as storage device stil you need to download the drivers for effective adb push if required ever.
Link is : https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3372901/HTC_drivers_Win7_x64.zip
Unzip to a folder
On your PC goto device manager in the control panel or by right clicking on the my computer icon and selecting properties.
In the device manager, please see if your HTC is listed under android devices. If it is then you dont need drivers.
If however there is an item in the list mentioned UNKNOWN then you need to instal the dirvers provided herewith. These work for both Windows 8 and Windows 7.
These drivers have to be added in manually by selecting location of driver and browsing to that folder.
Once the drivers are installed. Proceed to the next step.
Download the 4.2.2 update to any folder of your PC. Link to Official 4.2.2 OTA update is
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3372901/update.zip
Save this file and do not rename it.
Next proceed to download the "ZIP" version of CWM clockwork mod recovery for 802w. This is a special file and has to be like that. Special since it is custom to every version of HTC one. This is for HTC 802w.
Usual CWM recovery files are in IMG format. This one is in ZIP since we are bootloader locked. And we want to keep the botloader lcoked and stil flash recovery via HBOOT.
CWM recovery download page has an IMG for HTC ONE. This DOES NOT work with 802w Dual Sim. You have to use my version below.
For 802 t and 802 d, I can upload another version of CWM but for that Please download a small file called "CID" for google play store.
Run CID on your HTC One phone. and a list of values will appear. Carefullt jot down "cidnum" "mainversion" "bootloader" and "firmware" numbers. Please note this is the method you must use. I found out that using adb command to get all variants gives incorrect values.
My Zip version of CWM is:https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3372901/PN07IMG.zip
Please save this file in a different location form the previous stock RUU file you downloaded in the beginning of this thread. They both have same names. Hence store this file in a folder on your PC called "cwm". If you need recovery for 802t 802d please mention the values stated above and i can tweak the recovery file to work that way.
TWRP recovery for 802w I stil do not have. if any one has it I fill be willing to make a ZIP version.
Alright, Now off to flashing. Follow these steps CAREFULLY. Every word has a consequence. Please follow it as is. This works for all LOCKED AND UNLOCKED bootloaders with or without root. For LOCKED bootloaders you need to be s-off. Now first we got to know if you are S-off or not. To check this,
Restart your phone. Shut down doesnot work sometimes due to fastboot. SO restart your phone.
When your screen goes blank during the restart, immediately press the VOL DOWN KEY and the Power KEY simultaneously and keep them pressed down. Until the phone goes int a white colous Boot screen with text.
ON the top of the screen will be written : LOCKED or UNLOCKED or TAMPERED. and after that in the next line will be either "S-off" or "S-on"
If you are S-on you need to unlock your device via htc dev and there are tons of threads on it. So unlock your phone and then follow this guide below.
However, if you are S-off you dont need to do anything except follow the guide.
Now the flashing part.
Format your sd card from your phone. Thats the best way to avoid file errors. Just format it within the phone. The command should be in settings under storage.
Once the sd card is formatted, connect your phone to PC. Make sure USB debugging is on.
Copy the PN07IMG.zip file (size approx 870MB) that you downloaded in the folder named "stock" and paste it on the sd card. Do not create any folder on the SD card. Just copy the file to the root of the sd card.
Make sure the file you copied is on the root of sd card. Root fo sd card means when you open the card from your PC the file is right there and not inside any folder.
Also make sure that you copy the file and paste it to your sd card and you DO NOT "send the file to" sd card. Sending the file just creates shortcut and not the original file.
Recheck that the file name is "PN07IMG"
if all is good, then unplug your phone from your pc and reboot.
When you see the blank screen during restart press the VOL DOWN key and the power key simultaneously and keep pressing till the whote screen with text shows up.
Your phone will automatically start searchign for file named "PN07IMG" and will find it and start loading it. Stay calm and let it do what it wants.
If however, the screen shows an error like "IMG file not found" or file misisng and takes you back to the white screen with text on it and options like "Fastboot" and "recovery" etc… that means the file name is incorrect. Remember the file we need is PN07IMG in a zipped format.
A simple check for this is that the file should be zipped but there should be no ".zip" in the name. If thats the case you are good. But if you see the file zipped and also with a ".zip" in the name that means its named incorrectly. Correct file is "PN07IMG" and it should be zipped.
Do not zip the file yourself. The file in the link i provided is already zipped. Just rename it.
If however, your phone system detects the file and starts uploading it and later gives an error while verifying that means the file you downloaded is corrupt. Re download the file.
If however, all goes well, the system will autoflash your phone with the STOCK RUU file of 802w from China Unicom.
System will reboot. and then reboot again. and then finally you will see the welcome screen of HTC
You will be greeted in a chinese language. Just click on the sceen at the language and you can choose english US.
You can skip the settings and accounts and simply skip through to the homescreen of the phone.
Go into Apps. There is a app called "File Manager". run it
GOTO your esternal sd card from the phone and delete the PN07IMG file there. We dont need it any more.
Conenct your phoen via wifi or 3g. There is an app called htc marketplace in your appdrawer.
Run it. Swipe on the first two pages and you come to the main screen of the app.
in the search box above type "GMS" and click search
The apps listing will show "GMS" app and some words in chinese. click on that to download.
Let the download finish. Once the download finishes. Do NOT CLICK ON THE APP.
Remove you external sd card from the phone. Just remove it.
Now RUN the downloaded GMS app. Its in your app drawer.
Click ok in the dialogue that appears. OK is the right button option.
A file will start downloading. It will be of 150 MB approx. Let it download. Dont use the phone this time.
Once the file is downloaded click on it and you will be presented with the Dialer in the HTC phone. There is a code writen on the screen somethign like *#42*…… . Type the whole code as is int he phone and VOILA the phone will restart. If it doesnot, you typed the code incorrectly.
Phone will restart and again restart and then the phone boots into the normal mode but this time you have the Google Play store and all google accounts available wiht you.
Now put back the external sd card in your phone.
Connect yoiur phone to PC. Copy the file downloaded above called "update.zip" onto the root of the folder. Remember sd card should have no folder. THe file update has to be on the main root of the sd card.
Reboot your system and again hold the VOL down and Power key. Release the keys when the phone boots into whote screen with text.
The phone will try to search for an image which it will not find. Now it will present you with a menu stating " FastBoot" and "recovery" and few other options.
Select Recovery. Do this by pressing the VOL Down key once. and then to select press "Power key". dont press both keys together.
Your phoen will now boot into somehting with a red or grene triangle with exclamation mark or sync mark.
Carefully, press the VOL UP key and while pressing it press the Power key and release both.
The phone will now show options and one of them is "Instal zip from sd card"
If no options are shown, repeat the VOL UP and power key thing again.
Choose instal zip from sd card and choose the "update" file you copied to root of sd card.
The system will verify the image. If verification fails, the file downloaded was not correct or the name is not correct. If all goes well, the system will reboot twice and then you are back into your homescreen. Only this time you have the 4.2.2 update Stock.
Stil do not setup your phone. Reconnect it to your PC.
Copy the "PN07IMG" file that you downloaded in the folder named "cwm" on your pc to the root of your sd card. Please make sure the file is copied as is to the root of the sd card.
Reboot your phone and as always hold VOL down and POWER key. until you see the white screen.
Your phoen will autodetect the file and start flashing it. This the CWM recovery file.
System will reboot. and you will come back to your homescreen.
Download the "ROMCLEANER" file. Link is at the end of this post. All credits goto the team of ROM CLeaner. However, the 802w text file has been edited by me to make sure that HTC works and only the chinese bloatware is removed. The file is edited so that common problems like Smart dial not working after romcleaner flash do not occur.
Copy the ROMCLeaner zip file to the root of your sd card again. Also delete the PN07IMG file form your sd card. This is important.
Reboot. and again hold down the VOL DOWN and POWER key until you go into the white screen.
Now choose "Recovery" option by pressing VOl down and then selecting wiht power key.
You are now into Clockwork recovery. LOCKED BOOTLOADER NOT ROOTED. and stil in cwm recovery.!!!
choose flash zip from "external sd card" option and select the ROMCleaner zip file.
Just keep pressing next, or if touchscreen not working, use vol up key select and power key to choose NEXT. However, make sure in one of the options you choose "Sense"
In the last dialogue it asks for ROMCLEANER.. its the second option. Choose it.
Finish the task and your job is done. Chinese bloatware removed. Reboot phone.
You are now into your homescreen.
Setup your phone. If need be back it up with nandroid using your CWM recovery partition.
For those who have unlocked bootloaders and rooted. You may need to RELOCK your Bootloader before the flashing of the STOCK RUU ROM. Instructions to relock are easily available via google.
Cheers.

Thanks for the guide. It's very informative. Can you give some more guidence on the 802t?
Dear prompt. Would it be possible to revert after installing update 4.2.2 to 4.1.2 again setting again PN07IMG_M7C_DUG_JB_50_HTCCN_CHS_CU_1.12.1402.1_Radio_1237.17.18.0423_release_318980_signed.zip?
The fact that no update setting OTA to 4.2.2 to 4.1.2 clockworkmod backup ROM 4.2.2 problem "black screen", i.e. when charging the phone to 100% of the screen power button does not turn on until the battery is discharged to 90%.
Help required please
HI
I also am having problems upgrading my rooted 4.1.2 to 4.2.2. I have all the files downloaded and ready. First file was okay but when phone restarted, still the same as before, nothing changed. I tried to apply the 4.2.2 update.zip but it brings an error in cwrm.
Also when I switch my phone on it is telling me the phone is for development purposes only and there is no option to update software through Settings> About.
update.zip 4.2.2 downloaded 11 times. Continuing the upgrade through CWM an error bulid.prop

Thanks for this great job. But as I'm a total noob in terms of flashing smartphones (well, I did it years ago with my Motorola Razr, though), am not too familiar with the entire terminology (rooted, locked/unlocked bootloader, s-off etc.) and all of the implications and consequences of this stuff yet, and therefore did understand max. 75% of your post, I'm afraid I'd brick the phone if I'd try to follow this guide.
OTOH: I desperately need this Dual SIM phone (note that I don't have it yet), as there currently seems to be no alternative to it. For now, I have just two questions:
You're just mentioning the English language ("You want English Language and Google Services"). Will the phone after this procedure offer a multilingual interface, though (incl. German)?
Would you (or anybody else in this forum) be willing to flash this phone for me in the way described in this guide (which would be generously compensated, of course)?
More questions are likely to be raised later on if I'd get a positive answer to 1. (and a negative one to 2.).
Cheers, myfreexp

From what I have read in various threads and believe to have understood, this is one of the logical and unavoidable consequences of the fact that your phone is rooted.
I may be wrong, though. As I said in my previous post, I'm a noob, but one who is at least trying to read and understand. So please don't take my statement as the absolute truth, unless it will be confirmed by more competent folks/devs.
truely awsome, but ..
hey man great work this guide is very useful, but the stock 802w ruu file is currupt, i have downloaded serval times and still some of the files are currupt

The fact that no update setting OTA to 4.2.2 to 4.1.2 clockworkmod backup ROM 4.2.2 problem "black screen", i.e. when charging the phone to 100% of the screen power button does not turn on until the battery is discharged to 90%.

Yes it is possible. If you have followed my guide. Since you have a locked bootloader just use the hboot method above, rename the file and you are back to 4.1.1

HI
I also am having problems upgrading my rooted 4.1.2 to 4.2.2. I have all the files downloaded and ready. First file was okay but when phone restarted, still the same as before, nothing changed. I tried to apply the 4.2.2 update.zip but it brings an error in cwrm.
Also when I switch my phone on it is telling me the phone is for development purposes only and there is no option to update software through Settings> About.

hi there:
Thanks for the great guide.. i am using this with my HTC One 802w but when i wanted to flash the zip file for CWM recovery file it return with an error of CID incorrect...

I try to extract the required value via using apps "CID Getter" but it generate a lot of information.
post these online to see whether this will help....

Bootloader: 2.26
Build version codename: REL
Build version incremental: 211355.2
Build version release: 4.2.2
Rom version: 2.17.1402.2
PS: For mainversion & firmware i cannot get these from the apps above but try to source for similar info.. not sure whether it is help
Appreciate your help as i think i am approaching the last part to get a full workable 802w dual sim...
Need your help to clear this last hurdle before i remove all the annoying apps that Unicom install..

Stuck at update.zip
Hi Yahya - I'm stuck at step #41 ... the update.zip verifies OK, goes to install and then gives the error msg:
assert failed: file_getprop("/system/build.prop". "ro.build.fingerprint") == "htccn_chs_cu/m7cdug/m7cdug:4.1.2/JZ054K/186762.2:user/release-keys" || file_getprop("/system/build.prop". "ro.build.fingerprint") == "htccn_chs_cu/m7cdug/m7cdug:4.2.2/JDQ39/211355.2:user/release-keys"
Installation aborted.
I've downloaded the update.zip file 6 times and retried.
Please, please help!!
