Download the files needed to your PC, than use CWM to copy them to your Phone in USB mounts and Storage , after that flash

Thankyou xsenman that sounds simple enough,:fingers-crossed:
Well that worked great its now installed and the new rom looks sweet.
Problem i have now is im getting "An invalid IMEI number could cause network issues including the inability to call" anyone seen this before ?
Just found this :
Everyone is having IMEI problems, here is how you fix it.
1) Get ES file explorer or root explorer
2)Look in sdcard/backup/efs
3)Copy nv_data.bin, nv_data.bin.md5 and nv.log to /efs.
4) Reboot and enjoy!
Ill post back after gym if it works =D
That should work. Actually a friend of mine had similar issue with his phone but from what I know this solution helped him to get rid of the problem
Typed with my I9001
tryed the above fix with astro manager from recovery and after file copy and reboot i still get imei error.
thanks for the post ruthlessrat, its good to know someone else has tried the above fix and its worked for them maybe others who stuble across this thread may be able to use it although i can confirm it did not work for me.
I'm assuming my nv_data.bin, nv_data.bin.md5 and nv.log were bad, I'm looking into a imei fix here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881162 Hopefully this will resolve the last issue.
Edit: Good news I've got another phone to cover me for a while so I can work on getting this phone set up
how i want it, I think i may need to return to a stock rom, will this restore the imei ?
Edit2 : Reinstalled Gapps from thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1796675 this time its worked and Google play is now working fully so ive installed titanium backup and a few other applications that may come in use.
In the meantime alternate imei fixes and any advice would be useful on other cool features / functionality unique to JB. Thankyou to everyone again without the assistance it would have taken me allot further to get to this point.

Funny you should suggest that ive come across your thread, thanked, rated 5 and believe it should be newsworthy that thread could turn into a real noob's guide, I like it very much. I tried the first suggestion of copying the files , afraid it didn't work.
Second to that i tried this :http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=JqLK_2I-SBM
but unfortunately my nv_data.bin is pure "FF" in the hex editor so I assume this is some kind of default setting? anyone know ?
I am now going to try..
you can start from the beginning.. go back to GB 2.36 (use a JVU ROM + Root, upgrade to ICS CM 9 and than to CM10
Solution for i9000 on JB:-Try not to jump from Gingerbread to Jellybean, as all upgrades should be done progressively. meaning you need to be on a GB 2.3.6> than into ICS and finally into JB.
I'm going to use GB 2.3.6 from sammobile.com
Can anyone recommend an ICS rom ?
following this I will flash Helly Bean latest nightly again.
Edit: Well Ive flashed back to 2.3.6 JVU & used the JVU CF - Root which works great, Ive backed up my rom and ets folder ready for jellybean the problem is when running through the installation ui it gets stuck on the final " Helly Bean installed" screen after making your software selections,
When I click next to finish it just hangs and the phone becomes completely unresponsive. at this point Ive removed battery and restarted but alas I'm still on cf rooted gingerbread. I don't understand why as it worked fine before.
Ive tried clearing both cache's and reset, this made no difference.
Ive also reinstalled stock rom, re flashed CF-Root & Tried again with no success.
I'm going to look into ICS roms and post back.

Okay been having a few issues installing CM 9 so i have installed CM 7 for the moment,
Trying to fix CM9 atm keep getting "installation aborted (Bad)"
Fixed/Update : Move files to internal storage, Installed latest CM9, Downloading CM10 Nightly
Update 2 : CM10 Nightly installed works great & GAPPS latest version from goo.im.
Thanks again xsenman without you this would have been allot longer process, I really appreciate it !

Is installing a custom rom remove/improve problems in xolo q700
Well I have been using my q700 for 1 year and exactly just after 1 year (after the warranty peroid is over) the mobile has been having many problems mostly hardware related. Just like the other mobiles out there its having the misbehaving touchscreen problem and the capacitive buttons have gone dead( havent had the swollen battery issue). I highly suspect this to be more like a software issue thats been generated by xolo after a particular period of usage of the handset. Or I may be wrong but every user have been starting to have this problems after 10-11 months of usage.
and I have not used my mobile much except for few phone calls (its my secondary cell). So my question is whether it is possible to inject such problems by above mentioned method and now can I use any custom rom that will remove such problems? Or is it just a hardware issue that everyone faces?

ALL)
u can also root it via mtkdroidtools.exe via pc.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FLASHING CWM RECOVERY ON xolo q700 :
U NEED ;
download mobile uncle tools.apk from play store,
download cwm recovery for xolo q700 files . . .

FOR UPGRADING XOLO Q700 DEVICE'S FIRMWARE TO XOLO Q700i'S FIRMWARE ::
u need;
vcom mtk 6589 drivers
mtkdroid tools.apk
sp tools.exe (use latest one, or go for version that is best suited for this device. i used is the version 3.1316.0.150)

question
hi, m in xolo q700i now with xolo Q700, some user app icon showing shadow. any solution
hi all,
I bought a 2nd hand Samsung s4 gt-i9505 here in the UK with 3 network branding. I think it was running ver. 4.2.2 ... It definitely kept asking for an update !
KOT49H.I9505XXUFNA5
I have rooted the phone using kingo root.
I then tried to remove the 3 network animation by renaming the boot files and adding ( what I thought was standard ) files.
Now It won't boot and goes into recovery mode.
I have tried all of the restore options - wipe cache etc. .. no joy.
If I could either
a) get into the file system and renames the files back again or
b) flash the rom to some stock ish rom ... then that would be great
Ive tried ADB and not had much luck with it. ... keeps saying error:closed
Im updating with the SDK manager now and hoping for another option.
should I just upload one of these roms from here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2544474
or if some one can write a little file so I can upload it it to my SD card and exicute it in recovery mode that would be wonderful !!
The files I renamed are:
system/media/audio/ui and search for PowerOn.oggold
and
system/media/bootsamsung.qmgold
system/media/bootsamsungloop.qmgold
system/media/shutdown.qmgold
Please help. Im not in a good place atm. -_-
Can you go to DOWNLOAD MODE?
yep, I have just tried it. download mode works
Well then either flash a stock rom
or
Flash a custom recovery > Flash aroma filemanager with the custom recovery > Then you will be able to rename the files.
ok , thx for the help so far guys.
Ill go for a custom rom.
Please could you tell me which one is compatible for my phone and standard kernel.
I have a UK s4 GT-i9505 branded to 3.would I be right in saying pick any ROM from the list in the link above ( previous post in this thread)
All I want in a ROM is no bloat where , fast, stable. 4g wifi etc etc. ( so full features I guess )
Many thanks for your help.

You don't need root, only a custom recovery.
ok.
So i definately need to update the rom. ( ADB win't work cause I have factory reset phone and therefore debugging is not enabled.)
I have decided to go with google play edition rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2557353
I d/l the rom onto sd card, and tried to get it to install. it comes up with a fail ( footer fail and verification fail ) . Im sure it because I need to use a custom recovery program ( as stated in a previous post. )
I think I need to run something like TWRP . is that right ? http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/182
I think I need to use ODIN to install TWRP onto the phone ... is that right ..? or should I be looking for some .zip file I can use in recovery mode ...??
many thanks to all for your continued help

hi ya all.
Ive managed to sort out my phone !
I used a custom installer TWRP, and then uploaded a custom ROM from the SD card ( google play edition - very snappy.)
I also needed to update the kernel.
I used Odin to install TWRP first - google a vid on how to
Then put the ROM onto the SD card and used TWRP to install
Then used odin again to install kernel.
Its very easy to do ... but very daunting at first.
Many thanks to all in here to have helped me, I know there must be hundreds of threads like this, but your pointers helped loads !

Drivers not installed properly
I don't want to be rude but I am starting to get a little annoyed with same questions repeating over and over on all threads so i decided to post some answers here where they could be easily accessed.
1. Q:""Can i flash this Marshmallow/Lollipop/Nougat rom over my stock KitKat?"
A:The answer in most cases is that you cant (except in ED300 CM12.1 Rom but its still preferred that you flash stock Lollipop firmware separately).For those who don't want to waste their time flashing Stock rom there is an alternative flash-able zip could be found here
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/len...itkat-lolipop-firmware-base-switcher-t3249046 - for A6000
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-a6000/how-to/firmware-base-switcher-a6000-plus-t3411914 - for A6000 Plus.
2.Q:"Where can i find TWRP recovery for my firmware?"
A:Here you go
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-a6000/how-to/twrp-development-wt86518-t3498524 - Lollipop/Marshmallow/Nougat recovery developed by TingyiChen
- https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B2xkkOmw_M2NNXlVYnFYZnRIZHc?usp=sharing - made by SevenMaxs
TWRP 2.8.6.1 Is KitKat only compatible recovery
TWRP 2.8.7.7 Is Lollipop only compatible recovery
TWRP 3.0.2.0 Is Lollipop/Marshmallow/Nougat compatible recovery
*I couldn't find official links so i uploaded files to my google drive if any developer has a problem with this he can DM me and i will update the links *
3.Q:"Does this rom support VoLTE?"
A:So long there isnt a rom that supports VoLTE (As far as i know).There is some lib or source code problem with VoLTE (idk i am not a developer).There is a thread about this topic here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-a6000/help/lenovo-a6000-plus-volte-support-t3418004 -
4.Q:"Does this rom/kernel support OTG?"
A:No there is not.OTG support is a kernel feature that isnt available for our device.Maybe devharsh1998 is working on this maybe he isnt who knows be patient.
5.Q"Which rom is the best?"
A:Answer for this question is subjective you can always easily try couple of them.I like mshoaib7 ports i am currently on Nexus Experience ROM but i plan on switching to nougat soon.
6.Q"ED300 links aren't working?"
A:ED300 isn't developing for our device anymore and his thread links are not working but you can try some of the files that are on his androidfilehost folder
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=96089
This isn't tested by me and since the development stopped they are not recommended since bugs can't be fixed anymore.
7.Q"My phone is bricked heeeellllppppp?!?!"
A:If you are stuck on a splash screen/bootlogo
Can you enter recovery by restarting your phone and holding vol+ and vol-.If answer is yes just reflash the rom or try different one.If you cant enter recovery mode but can enter fastboot mod by holding vol - when restarting the device then follow this quide :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-a6000/how-to/how-to-bring-phone-to-life-fastboot-t3561070
If your phone is showing only black screen or isnt booting at all you can try QFIL unbricking method
Disclaimer:
Nothing of this is my work all credits go to the developers i am just trying to make it easier for the developers and to try and answer noobier questions that are flooding the development threads.If you think some answers need further explanations or you have some more questions feel free to PM me.Enjoy roms and happy flashing

8.Q:How to change cache and data to f2fs

Be ware all your data will be wiped!
Step 1: go to wipe format data type yes and wipe all

find ROM for your device download it.Unpack zip transfer system.zip and yourregion.zip (yourregion.zip is optional and if you live in india its probably india.zip) and flash it in TWRP recovery.Go to wipe, swipe to factory reset then go to install and select system.zip ,swipe to install it then select yourregion.zip and swipe again,reboot.If you are having problems with TWRP flash stock recovery via fastboot or flashify etc..
Thanks for this thread but there are still a lot of noobs asking for volte
Hi, phone water damaged 2 days ago..
I tried and saved it. But now Camera and flash not working.
Whenever I open camera it says "stopped working".
Is there still water inside out? Camera?
What I can do?? I tried clean flashing latest RR ROM.
But it says the same thing.
Anything hardware related repair can be done from home?
How much it will cost for camera and flash repair? For a6000+
Thank you.
