CROSSCALL CORE-X3 L750_02 OTA Update 8.1+ - Crosscall Smartphones

Here is the Orange (French MNO) OTA update. May be someone could use this to make the world better.
We have to start somewhere....
CROSSCALL CORE-X3 L750_02 OTA Update 8.1+
The file is a zip without extension.
CROSSCALL CORE-X3 specifications.

Nice thank you ! How did you manage to get the ZIP ?

Believe me or not, I can't remember...
Once upon a time, late at a full moon night.
But I think I had to open the update client (Mise à jour / Adups FOTA)
Then let it download the update. Then, when I tried to update, it shame fails.
The process includes a reboot, so the file can't stay in RAM.
I managed somehow to grab it to my computer with ADB or something like that.
The 'Disk Usage' app is useful to monitor space take by apps.
Bonne chance.

BREAKING NEWS: Adups FOTA is malware.
To remove this sh¡t:
adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.adups.fota
adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.adups.fota.sysoper

I just called the Crosscall support,
A nice guy tells me the society behind the bootloader doesn't want you to unlock it!
He said:
"You own the phone, but what's inside isn't yours! It's the property of the China Empire, including all your data!
You can't complain about AdupsFOTAmalware, because Apple, Samsung, and Ms are all doing the same!
They broke the law so we (Adups) are allowed to broke the law too and steal your data.
He defended his company saying they only sell hardware, not software.

android dictionary

i found this in xperia x10 general section maybe we should have the same thread in our general section
[source] xperia x10 general section from kloud_
I was going through another site & came across a Terminology Guide. I couldn’t find something similar here so just wanted to take it upon myself to create a well organized post providing abbreviations & terminology so that any one, Master or Newbie, can have a quick reference guide to all things droid. I myself do not know everything but I do know some things & I believe with some help from the moderators & contributing members of xda-developers, we can throw together a one-stop-shop for all the droid info.
A special thanks to Sam Fisher at droidforums for the inspiration!!
Thanks to My_Immortal, OmegaRED^ & Spaarc for their suggestions & information shared!
________________
ADK: Android Development Kit, What people use to develop anything for the Android such as ROM's
The ADK (Android development kit) is divided into 3 parts
1. Android SDK (Software development Kit): used to make easy programs which only require touch & some sensors , e.g. Games
2. Android NDK ( Native Development Kit): this is used to Create apps which require Hardware or Use the native binaries & libraries of Android , eg. Camera , CyanogenMod Settings, Oxygen Settings , etc.
3. Android PDK ( Platform Development Kit): As the name suggests this is the main kit which allows to make all ".mk" files (eg. Android.mk , etc) & most of the files found on github
Basically Dev's like FXP , Z , Achotjan , kxhawkins , etc. Use the PDK to make AOSP/CM7 ROMs from source
& Also use NDK to edit the system apk's etc.. to make it stable
adb: Android Debug Bridge, a command-line debugging application included with the SDK. It provides tools to browse the device, copy tools on the device, & forward ports for debugging. If you are developing in Eclipse using the ADT Plugin, adb is integrated into your development environment.
AOSP: Android Open System Project, usually you will see this term when referring to a program or ROM. This will mean that the program or ROM was taken from Google & does not contain any modifications done by the phone Manufacturer or the phone service provider. This is Android the way Google intended.
Baseband or Radio: In communications & signal processing, the baseband describes signals & systems whose range of the frequencies measured from close to 0 hertz to a cut-off frequency, a maximum bandwidth or highest signal frequency; it is sometimes used to describe frequencies starting close to zero
Boot Loader/SPL: In literal terms, boot loader is code that is executed before any Operating System starts to run. The concept of boot loaders is universal to virtually all Operating systems that includes operating systems on your PC, laptop, Smartphone, & other such devices. Boot loaders basically package the instructions to boot operating system kernel & most of them also have their own debugging or modification environment. As the boot loader kicks off before any piece of software on your device, it makes it extremely processor specific & every motherboard has its own boot loader.
Boot Loader/SPL (Unlocked): A locked or unlocked boot loader is what gives you access to “root.” “Root” is another big word in the Android community. If you “root” a device, it means you have “super user” access or “administrator” access to the operating system that runs on your phone. Root access of your Android device gives you the ability to flash ROMs.
One of the most popular ROMs was created by a team called the CyanogenMod(CM), & their current rom is CM7, which is built on Android 2.3 Gingerbread. What this means is that if you have a phone that has an unlocked boot loader & root access, you can flash the CM7 ROM to your phone with a couple more steps. This also means that you can get access to most of the features in the latest version of Android that is commercially available, without having to wait for your manufacturer or carrier to give you an official update.
Boot Loop: Simply means something is preventing the phone from completing it's boot cycle & is stuck between the boot animation & the unlock screen, creating a looped animation. This is often fixed by either reloading a NAndroid, or Reflashing a ROM from the xRecovery/ClockworkMod Recovery/Flashtool.
Brick or Bricked: Jargon for a completely unrecoverable device, (no more than a brick or paperweight)
Note: It is my understanding that radio will boot first, followed by other systems. So it is IMPORTANT that your radio image/version will work with your SPL image/version. This is the one & only reason for phones being bricked. You cannot brick your phone by flashing a ROM or Boot image or recovery image. Once you flash the wrong radio for the SPL, the only known method of recovery is to send the phone back into SE for repair.
How do I know the phone is hard-bricked? A hard-bricked phone cannot boot into boot loader, recovery, or into normal operation modes. You cannot connect to a hard-bricked phone via adb or fastboot. You can only see one screen on the phone & it will be the first splash screen.
Bug or Software Bug: An Error or flaw in software that produces a failure or unexpected/unwanted result. Typically created from incorrect code, this is why some ROMs are better & smoother running than others because developers have taken the time to input "perfect" code (read put in a lot of hours & hard work)
Busybox: A single multicall binary that packages the functionality of most widely used standard Unix tools, BusyBox provides a fairly complete environment for any small or embedded system.
COMPCACHE: (compressed caching) is, in short, virtual swap, setting aside a certain percentage (usually 25%) of your RAM as 'compressed' swap. Compcache compresses the data that would normally go to swap, then moves it back into RAM, and reverses the process when moving it out of the 'compressed' swap. However, this is a classic space-time tradeoff. You effectively get more RAM from the compression, but it is slower than 'normal' RAM due to the CPU time required to compress and decompress the swapped pages.
ClockworkMod: A recovery program that is often used to apply updates, ROMs, or create a back up or restore a backup file
Dalvik: An open source, register-based virtual machine (VM) that’s part of the Android OS. The Dalvik VM executes files in the Dalvik Executable (.dex) format & relies on the Linux kernel for additional functionality like threading & low-level memory management. The virtual machine is register-based, and it can run classes compiled by a Java language compiler that have been transformed into its native format using the included "dx" tool.
Dalvik Cache: A program cache area for the program Dalvik. Dalvik is a java based virtual machine that is the basis for running your programs (the ones that have the .apk extension). In order to make access times faster (because there's not JIT (just in time) compiler installed by default), the dalvik-cache is the result of dalvik doing a optimization of the running program. It's similar to the prefetch files in Windows.
DDMS: Dalvik Debug Monitor Service, a GUI debugging application included with the SDK. It provides screen capture, log dump, and process examination capabilities. If you are developing in Eclipse using the ADT Plugin, DDMS is integrated into your development environment.
Deep Sleep: A state when the CPU is off, display dark, device is waiting for external input.
De-odex: Apk files have respective odexes that devs use to supposedly save space. Deodexing means you convert it back to a .dex file & put it back inside the apk. This allows you to easily replace files (not having to worry about odexes), but the main point was to deodex services.jar so that you can change all text to different colors (such as the clock color to white) & to deodex services.jar, you need to deodex everything.
Dev. or Developer: An individual that creates, or alters a file in such a manner as to advance the program
Drawable: A compiled visual resource that can be used as a background, title, or other part of the screen. A drawable is typically loaded into another UI element, for example as a background image. A drawable is not able to receive events, but does assign various other properties such as "state" and scheduling, to enable subclasses such as animation objects or image libraries. Many drawable objects are loaded from drawable resource files — xml or bitmap files that describe the image. Drawable resources are compiled into subclasses of android.graphics.drawable. For more information about drawables and other resources.
Fastboot: Protocol used to update the flash file system in Android devices from a host over USB. It allows flashing of unsigned partition images.
Flash: Rewrite the software/firmware on your phone using a computer to "flash" or completely rewrite the memory (ROM) of your phone. This is done using ODIN.
Flash Memory: a program technology that can be electrically erased & reprogrammed
Kernel: The main component of Android operating system.
It is a bridge between applications & the actual data processing done at the hardware level.
The kernel's responsibilities include managing the system's resources (the communication between hardware & software components).
[Usually as a basic component of an operating system, a kernel can provide the lowest-level abstraction layer for the resources
(especially processors & I/O devices) that application software must control to perform its function.
It typically makes these facilities available to application processes through inter-process communication mechanisms & system calls.
Operating system tasks are done differently by different kernels, depending on their design & implementation.]
Manifest File: An XML file that each application must define, to describe the application's package name, version, components (activities, intent filters, services), imported libraries, and describes the various activities, and so on. See The AndroidManifest.xml File for complete information.
Nine-patch / 9-patch / Ninepatch image
A re-sizeable bitmap resource that can be used for backgrounds or other images on the device.
Nandroid or Nandroid Backup: A file typically created in the custom recovery program, such as xRecovery, that is a carbon copy of whatever state your phone is in before a drastic change is made. The file then can be moved onto or off of the SD card for later use in case something should go wrong in the ROM or Update, or a Boot Loop occurs
ODIN: It is the program you can use to flash phones.
e.g. : 'Odin Multi-Downloader v3.95' is used to flash the Samsung Galaxy. It's usually included in firmware packs.
OEM: Original Equipment Manufacturer, the people who actually put together electronic hardware. Also refers to any equipment original to the phone, or produced by the company for the phone
OpenGL ES: Android provides OpenGL ES libraries that you can use for fast, complex 3D images. It is harder to use than a Canvas object, but better for 3D objects. The android.opengl and javax.microedition.khronos.opengles packages expose OpenGL ES functionality.
OS: Operating system, I.E. Windows Vista, LINUX or MAC or Android
OTA: Over-the-Air; method T-Mobile, & some other phone companies, uses to update Android phones. The new versions of Android are developed by Google & then released to OEM's, Sony Ericsson in our case. The OEM then writes drivers that enable the new software to work on the phone's hardware. They also develop any specialized UI (user interface), like Timescape & Mediascape, or other software they want to include. Once this is complete, they turn it over to the cell phone company, (e.g.)Tmobile, who then have to do the final checks to make sure the update works, & then distributes it over there data network using their cell transmitters.
Overclocking (OC): Speeding up the CPU past the factory presets to achieve a faster & more responsive device (prolonged run can be injurious to your device, so be careful.)
ROM: Read Only Memory, a program used to make changes to anything from the look of the home screen to icons to custom boot animation
Root: Common word associated with giving a user "super user" access to their phones programming & other various aspects that would normally not be possible, also known as "Jailbroken" for iPhone's, "Administrator Rights" in Windows OS.
Shell or SSH: The shell is the layer of programming that understands & executes the commands a user enters. In some systems, the shell is called a command interpreter. A shell usually implies an interface with a command syntax (think of the DOS operating system & its "C:>" prompts & user commands such as "dir" & "edit"). secure shell or ssh is a network protocol that allows data to be exchanged using a secure channel between two networked devices
SQLite: An embedded relational database management system contained in a relatively small (~275 kB) C programming library. It is multitasking concerning reads. Writes can be done only one-at-a-time. It is a popular choice for local/client storage on web browsers. It has many bindings to programming languages. It is arguably the most widely used database engine, as it is used today by several widespread browsers, operating systems, embedded systems among others
Stock: Simply means an unaltered state, such as when you first purchase your phone fromVerizon/Your Service Provider or when you repair your phone using PC Companion or SE Update Service(SEUS)
SU: "Super user", or root permissions
SWAP: is, in short, virtual RAM. With swap, a small portion of the hard drive is set aside and used like RAM. The computer will attempt to keep as much information as possible in RAM until the RAM is full. At that point, the computer will begin moving inactive blocks of memory (called pages) to the hard disk, freeing up RAM for active processes. If one of the pages on the hard disk needs to be accessed again, it will be moved back into RAM, and a different inactive page in RAM will be moved onto the hard disk ('swapped'). The trade off is disks and SD cards are considerably slower than physical RAM, so when something needs to be swapped, there is a noticeable performance hit.
Unlike traditional swap, Android's Memory Manager kills inactive processes to free up memory. Android signals to the process, then the process will usually write out a small bit of specific information about its state (for example, Google Maps may write out the map view coordinates; Browser might write the URL of the page being viewed) and then the process exits. When you next access that application, it is restarted: the application is loaded from storage, and retrieves the state information that it saved when it last closed. In some applications, this makes it seem as if the application never closed at all. This is not much different from traditional swap, except that Android apps are specially programed to write out very specific information, making Android's Memory Manager more efficient that swap.
Theme: A set of icons, backgrounds & app trays that change the aesthetics of the overall look of the Android & its applications. It has a set of properties (text size, background color, and so on) bundled together to define various default display settings. Android provides a few standard themes, listed in R.style (starting with "Theme_").
TUN/TAP: Refers to a network TUNnel, operates within layer 3 packets, or ip packets. Packets sent by a system via a TUN/TAP device are delivered to a user-space program that attaches itself to the device. A user space program may also pass packets into a TUN/TAP device. In this case TUN/TAP device delivers (or "injects") these packets to the operating system's network stack thus emulating their reception from an external source.
Underclocking(UC): Slowing down the CPU mainly to limit battery usage
Undervolting(UV): Basically keeping the clock speed same (or overclocking it) & reduce the voltage at each cpu cycle.
xRecovery: A recovery program based on the ClockworkMod Recovery sources used to apply updates, ROMs, or create a back up or restore a backup file
File Types:
.dex: Compiled Android application code file. Android programs are compiled into .dex (Dalvik Executable) files, which are in turn zipped into a single .apk file on the device. .dex files can be created by automatically translating compiled applications written in the Java programming language.
.sbf: Summation Briefcase File
.apk or APK's: An .apk file extension denotes an Android Package (APK) file, an .apk file can be opened & inspected using common archive tools. Each Android application is compiled and packaged in a single file that includes all of the application's code (.dex files), resources, assets, and manifest file. The application package file can have any name but must use the .apk extension. For example: myExampleAppname.apk. For convenience, an application package file is often referred to as an ".apk".
.tar: Similar to a zip file(derived from tape archive), a tar file archives multiple files into one file
.tgz: TGZ files (gnu-zipped .tar file) are commonly used as install packages for Slackware Linux.
pheeeeww!!This took sometime!!
Well this is all I can think of off the top of my head but as I think of more I will edit them in here & I encourage the mods to put things that I either forgot or just simply am not aware of. Also I request fellow user to suggest any terms frequently used & not added or any discrepancies found, kindly PM me!!
Thank you & happy hacking/flashing!!

Bootloader Partition Images
WARNING ONLY ADJUST PARTITIONS IF YOUR DEVICE HAS A WORKING BOOTLOADER WITH FASTBOOT
(Some early devices have a limited bootloader with no menu and no fastboot mode. If this is so, do not modify your partitions unless certain of your actions. A bootloader is a special device starting partition that later starts the extended boot partition. The bootloader should give fastboot access allowing you to re-partition or correct mistakes.)
Buttons: Power-Button + Top-Volume. Release after a few second..
= Bootloader menu should show, allowing fastboot 'on' switch
= or Blank Screen Bootloader possibly with fastboot (read above warning)
To partition your device you do need it unlocked it. The command below should do this. You need a fastboot commandline service which is usually supplied from the bootloader level. The computer used to control the changes also needs its own ADB and FASTBOOT protocol utilities.
After the below command is issued your device will reboot and user data wiped! You device should then be open for partition changes.
Code:
fastboot oem unlock

UART Ability?
After an inspection I can't see any points to which one could easily tap into an 'exposed console' with a USB UART setup. This could indicate there is no allocation to access a terminal from a tapped in serial port or pins off the minute and well protected chipsets. Obviously those that want to software repair these tablets have access to NvFlash/APX mode, in dire situations.

NVFLASH/APX BASED RECOVERY (POSSIBLE FIX FOR BRICKED DEVICES)
Advent Computers APX Recovery
Linux users can add the nvflash executables shared above. Put the device in APX mode and issue the below command. You can replace the images in the folder to suit a different recovery or boot, etc.
Window's users can execute 'flash_signed.bat' from the command line to start the process. If you get ID errors, then perform the Linux command below without the 'sudo' section at front.
Unplug any other device. Do not use this unless your tablet is bricked as it will tailor the tablet to a particular brand and therefore hardware may not work correctly.
Code:
sudo nvflash --blob blob.bin --bct flash_signed.bct --setbct --odmdata 0x4069E000 --odm limitedpowermode --configfile flash_signed.cfg --create --bl bootloader_signed.bin --reset normal 0

Xposed Installer
Xposed is a framework for modules that can change the behavior of the system and apps without touching any APKs. That's great because it means that modules can work for different versions and even ROMs without any changes (as long as the original code was not changed too much). It's also easy to undo. As all changes are done in the memory, you just need to deactivate the module and reboot to get your original system back. There are many other advantages, but here is just one more: Multiple modules can do changes to the same part of the system or app. With modified APKs, you to decide for one. No way to combine them, unless the author builds multiple APKs with different combinations.

Installing Google Play on Nvidia Tegra Note.
0. Get a powerful Recovery partition image on your Tablet.
1. Obtain a Google Apps pack, usually termed GAPPS suited to your Android version.
2. Use Recovery's install zip mode to install.
Lollipop Fresh Installation + Tweaking
(for those with basic knowledge of Android manipulation)
* Make sure your tablet is OEM unlocked. Then flash a sophisticated recover image version like TWRP. This will allow root-mode enabling via a patch.
To obtain fastboot-mode, you need another computer as the debugging/command platform via USB. Holding the POWER-BUTTON and UP-VOLUME on the boot and shortly after releasing the POWER-BUTTON and later the other, will bring up a bootloader menu that can deploy fastboot protocol/mode or get to recovery-mode. This is where you can flash, oem unlock, and erase partitions, with the data coming from your command-platform. You can't format nor erase partitions till you oem-unlock the device, noting an oem unlock clears your device's user data.
Your command-platform (controlling computer used to upgrade the Tegra Note) also needs its own version of ADB (Android Debugging Bridge) and FASTBOOT protocols so as to be able to talk and understand the conversation over the USB.
RootJunky also has versions of TWRP and other recovery image versions.
* Put the tablet into fastboot-mode and flash RootJunky's shared Lollipop restore image instead of the upgrade over the air (OTA). Good idea to erase particular partition before flashing.
* Boot to the recovery stage. Install latest SuperSu.zip using sideloader or having it already on a SD. This will enable root mode.
https://download.chainfire.eu/740/SuperSU (Get Beta if available.)
* Start system. Remove Apps from system partition unneeded, or that can be moved or installed to user directory instead. This frees up vital space. Example Lollipop only leaves a few megabytes left in the system partition after installation. Consider using Link2SD. Example get Google+, Google Play, Google Magazine, etc into the user partition and any other big App off your system partition. The system partition should only have important apps needed to be retained if a factory wipe is enacted.
* Then go through all your system settings make sure you tweak them to suit both power saving and your own desires.
* Use a start-up tool like ES Task Manager to remove apps starting that don't need to be running from system boot.
* Install all Google Apps wanted. This can help to configure the system how it's meant to be.
* You could install Google Now into the system partition and remove the Launcher3 App.
* The system should now run smooth and use little battery.

I had the same problem when I was trying to use Helium to restore some apps. Windows 7 64 bit was able to install two of the three component 'parts' of the tablet but not the final driver. After the device installer had finished in opened Control Panel on the PC and then the Device Manager. The Note should be listed in Device Manager with a yellow exclamation mark. Right click on it and select 'update driver'. In the next window choose to install the driver yourself, then opt to choose from a list of drivers manually. Next choose the entry called 'Android Phone', then select 'composite ADB device' from the list on the right. I'm saying this from memory I may have missed a step so tread carefully. I already had the desktop Helium app installed on my PC which installation ADB drivers (they'll appear under Clockwork Mod in the driver list I mentioned). I'm away from my PC for now so it'll be a while before I can refine these instructions.
These are just basic observations, but I've playing around with the Note connected to a TV and USB hub etc

I haven't tried wireless display yet. I hope to by a Miracast/DLNA compatible adapter for my TV soon so I can see what works. Full screen mirroring is what I'm aiming for.

Did you already have the drivers downloaded and installed to your machine, or did it use its own drivers?
that'd be great if folks no longer need to get the drivers manually set up and override the crying about mismatches.
My Tegra Note Homecare Fly One does not connect on my PC ..
Does anyone have the drivers?
thank you
I made a discovery.....Battery drain issue.....battery drains really fast even when on power save settings with prism and running on 1 core..... Even when im not even using it like the memory is clean and cache is clear and everything.......After 100% charge it barely lasts me 6 hours of a day at college when im using it on and off....Like word processing and taking a couple of photos thats it.....
So after a few days since I got it the battery started getting better and better......So what was 6 hours of on and off usage of my tablet is not almost 24 hours of the same kinds of usage with still 45% ish of battery remainig!!!!! So I guess the way we charge our devices makes a difference as well....Batery doctor has a feature that charges the device in a specific way like as fast as possible to 80% then slows current down to prelong battery life. I want to see how long my battery will last and will upload screenshots while im doing so.....Right now it is 10:26 pm and battery is at 43% with 22 hours and 2 mins on battery.

[TOOL] DroidManager (Noob Friendly) [UNDER DEVELOPMENT]

DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible for anything that happens to you, your device, or anyone else. You use this software at your own risk.
DroidManager
DroidManager is an advanced device manager application!
DroidManager is open source software!
This program is not yet finished! It is usable in its current state, but I am not done implementing everything I plan to for 1.0 yet.
Note: the application still has tabs for all the unimplemented features, you might get a popup saying that they are not yet implemented when you click on the tab.

About
This tool is intended to be noob-friendly, and to make it easy to do things, and it's somewhat inspired by similar tools for iOS (which are all proprietary) like iMazing and Apple's own iTunes. However, I am still planning to include tools for more advanced users like adb sideload/fastboot flash (i know anyone with a terminal can do it, but a gui is just easier, also it's easy to recommend to less experienced users)
Features

Device information
Battery information

SailfishOS on Nexus 6 (shamu)

Disclaimer WARNING: "Modifying or replacing your device’s software may void your device’s warranty, lead to data loss, hair loss, financial loss, privacy loss, security breaches, or other damage, and therefore must be done entirely at your own risk.

What is SailfishOS? Sailfish OS is a GNU/Linux based mobile operating system, which is gesture-driven for the ease of use. It runs natively as glibc (not Android's bionic), has bash and busybox (not toolbox), uses Qt for UX, and other opensource projects in its middleware -- which basically is just like a Linux on your desktop, but needs Android drivers for some of device's hardware.
What works Screen (Display, touch) LED WLAN Audio Buttons (Volume and Power) Vibrate SMS USB (Charging and developer mode) What not works Camera Calling Mobile data Browser Jolla Store ( I've not put required files to mer's OBS system now.) What not tested Other stuffs _з」∠)_ How to install Flash latest stock firmware ( Image can be acquired from Google Developers website )

Reboot and wait SailfishOS logo appears on your screen, follow the instructions to complete initial settings .
Well done

I installed it so I could check it out and its very interesting if everything ends up working in a future release and it became capable of being a daily driver then I would use it to see how well it runs, Thanks for sharing !
This is wonderful to see. Sometime ago I believe there was Ubuntu touch in development for the Nexus 6, but ceased? This is great to see a new OS in development and will follow with great interest
Very nice, very pretty system but need to fix phone functions
Oh hey, you got as far as I did about. I didn't have enough time to polish things up though, and I just kinda lost steam on it all.
I never could figure out the call issue but I got most other things working. Here's my sources, if it helps!
