Hi,
I have T mobile G2 Touch
Firmware Version : 1.5
BaseBand version 63.18.55.06U_6.35.04.25
KernelVersion :- 2.6.27-a5504199 ([email protected] #521)
Build Version :- 1.76.111.6 146733 Cl#47214 release-keys
Software version 1.0.0.A6288
I tried updating using :RUU_Hero_T-Mobile_UK_2.73.110.26_release_signed_NoDriver
and _HTC_Hero_RUU_Hero_HTC_WWE_2.73.405.5_WWE_release_signed_NoDriver and both bombed.
I want to upgrade firmware and bring to latest stable one.
Can someone please guide me the best option available.
Thanks in advance, will appreciate guidance in this
You haven't given any information as to what the problem is, so it is doubtful anyone can help you.
That being said, there are *many* threads giving step by step guides, so search and read first!

What do you mean by "bombed"? I guess you mean the upgrade didn't work somehow, but give us a clue so we can help.
Hi Yes Bombed means it didnt allow me to upgrade

How do you expect people to help you out when you dont give any more information.
I'm no expert by any means, but I could point you in the right direction if I know what the problem is
-> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=572683
this will turn it back to original Hero, and you can upgrade it later with any original HTC ROM. you will not have to wait for T-mobile to customize their own, branded ROM
edit: but for now you are still on 1.5 Android. you could use some kind of search (google?), we are all waiting for v2.1
I got hold of my hero just 5 days before i posted this message. And then down with viral thanks for pointing out the thread. "Dac0908" But are you saying after "GoldCard" i will still be at firmware 1.5 or will more to 2.0 ?
for "bryanchapman9999" no offense but i gave all firmware and system information i could get and provided usual update not working with updating software name. So not sure what other information is required i am on T mobile 1.5 version itself is hint that customized software not allowing updates.

You need to describe *exactly* what occurs when you try to apply the RUU including all messages/dialogs that are displayed.
Posting all your version numbers and then saying that the update is "not working" or "bombed" is about as useful as a chocolate teapot because it tells us precisely *nothing* about the issue that you may be having.

Dave

It is failing the CID check - you will need to create a gold card in order to bypass the CID check before you can proceed, or find another 2.73 ROM that had the appropriate CID (probably something like 2.73.111.6)

Hi ,
Will This porcess update my firmware to 2.0 ? and how stable is 2.1 if it is available i can see in few threads ?
Just want to make sure before i take leap of faith
The process will allow you to flash any of the available ROMs, but be advised that none of the 2.x ROMs are based on an official release and most have some issues that may mean it isn't really suitable for day to day use (YMMV!).

Dave
Thanks alot for quick response really appreciate mate, just one more suggestion if you can provide which rom would you suggest is best as of now ? and why ?

Hmm I looked for a true JB rom for this phone, and all I got was a 2.3.6 custom rom that got the looks of JB. Was the rom you're talking about the ICS v5 by Mark? Unless you can point me to the real JB 4.1.1 rom, this is what I've worked with. It actually works nice, but it's still in GB.
Hi everyone,
Please can anyone tell me where to find a good and stable ROM for flashing my HTC Tianxi T9188. My brother brought it back from China and left it with me. Unfortunately, I dont understand the Chinese language it came with and need to flash in an English ROM to be able to use the phone.
Its a shame that I have such a nice phone but cant use it due to the language issue.
Please HELP!!!

Well I was actually hoping that you could point me to a link where I can download the ROM from. I have been searching through google but haven't really found any good one so far.
Please help!!!
HTC Tianxi is the China only released version of the HD2. Some differences - CPU, RAM and TD-SCDMA. To me this seems a slightly lower spec'd phone than the HD2.
Check out pdadb.net - run pdacomparer. Doubt there would be any other language version's. At your own risk you could try some HD2 - built roms or ICS Andriod roms.
Thats the problem tx. I was hoping I culd get an English ROM for the HTC Tianxi T9188 and not have to experiment with the HD2 ROMs, considering that both phones have different hardwares. Thats the risk I dont wanna take cos of the possibility of bricking the phone. I did come across an Android ROM though but I can see CHS in the name of the ROM which tells me that it is still a Chinese ROM all the same.
Another problem I am facing is flashing the HardSPL for the Tianxi. It us using SPL 1.27.0000 and I cant find a hardspl flasher which is compatible with it. I have searched here and in other forums and Google and any other place you can think of, still nothing. Have tried the ones I have seen online and always met an error. Any help here will be most appreciated.
And thanks for taking your time to respond.
Check out thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433
on SPL,SSPL,HSPL,HSPL2.
If you have SD Card try loading (SD version) in the root and (MAGLDR) boot etc. If that works then it may take NAND versions.
Other than experiment, sorry cant be of more help.
I have tried all the hardspl flashers I can find in the thread you gave ... from HSPL to HSPL4. Non of them could work for the Tianxi. All gave the same BAD ID error and wont flash the HardSPL.
Please help me anyone ... I am getting frustrated by this

Some kind person over at 'hotukdeals' did me a favour and got me the SIM unlock code from the carrier. Root was easy enough, unfotunately not much support for this device, without a CWM recovery, or a stock rom, Iam reluctant to do any further changes.
There is an official application called "Alcatel One Touch Upgrade NB v1.02" that may be able to restore people's broken phones to their default brand new state: http://www.mirrorcreator.com/files/E3K4W5EI/one-touch-upgrade-nb-1-0-3-setup-medoclite.exe_links
The .exe name says v1.03 so does their website but it is actually v1.02. This may help these of you who have messed up your phones.
my bricked phone keeps restarting so I couldn't use alcatel one touch upgrade
thanks mate but still my problem is not solved
the thing is alcatel onetouch upgrade tells me turn my phone off and connect to pc via usb cable but the problem is as soon as i connect my phone via usb the phone turn on, so alcatel one touch upgrade fails at 65% download from the server
I can get my phone in to recovery mode but I think I will need the rom, i dont know
if someone bought a new phone of this model and made a rom backup and if you can post that it will be really nice
need the system.img for this phone
i have lost my system.img and i need it, please send it
thanks
if you guys could give me detailed instructions as to how i can extract the system.img file i might be able to help you. I have a stock rooted phone btw, i've uninstalled a few applications i didn't want and move some to sd using link2sd i think, not sure if that matters or not. My phone is currently not unlocked to all networks but will be within the next 2 weeks.

Hi guys,
could someone provide, or point me to the right direction, to get the stock ROM for alcatel one touch flash 6042D ?
I have the TCL p728m, which is the same model, only for the Chinese market, and I'd like to have a english ROM on it... Preferably with gapps
i second that
Same
Hello, it's my first post. I've bought the TCL s720 in aliexpress and I've seen that also it's the same that alcatel one touch flash, as serbent has said.
I don't have the mobile yet, but I'll have it in two weeks I hope. The TCL has android 4.2.2, and the alcatel has the 4.4 version, it's possible to put the rom of alcatel on the TCL?
It seems to be he same hardware ... sorry for my bad english, I'm a sillly spanish :silly: hahaha
Greetings for all.
Yes, is the same phone. I'm from Spain too. We have to find the stock rom of Alcatel 6042D.
I'll join the que of people interested in this. I just bought the TCL S720 myself. :highfive:
I think that is the best mobile in quality / price ratio.
But I bought this mobile for the battery, 3330mah! Also the Cubot S200 has 3300mah, but I already have had an mt6582, and I want to try the octa-core
Other thing that I want to say it's if I can low the base frequencie of the processor, because I think that 728MHz are too much. I would like to low it to 500MHz or less if it's possible.

I dont think you can flash your phone with this
does anyone found the stock rom for this? I have the TCL s720 and looks great as specifications/price but the software is ****. So It might work the kit kat of alcatel flash on it. still hopeing to update it.

oh, come on
did you ever compare S720 vs P728m?
the only thing they have in common is SOC.
In other words, this rom is no good for s720.
