As theattitle i looking for a rom that make my wheel working.
Thx
As clone has nothing in common with original Iolite, nobody here will probably help you with that. You must check clone's manufacturer website.
English ROM
Please do not listen to these people. This phone is strongly supported although not officially. I personal bought everyone in my family this phone as it is of high quality and faster than the original.
The following link is WM6.5 English with wheel working and stable for HTY T4242+

Plus I recommend the following website for any software you may need.
http://forum.ppcwarez.org/
This phone may be supported somewhere, but not here. We talk about htc devices, and clones are like Palm/Motorola/LG, they share nothing with HTC devices, except the look. They require specific software (for cooking), and specific methods (soft reset, flashing, hard reset...). How can we help people if we are supporting devices regardless of if they are originals or clones? Even worse, there are even different clones of the same device (T4242+, T4288...), and roms are incompatible between them!
AFAIK, information about clones here are only for the people who buy these clones instead of the original, thinking they are buying the original...
Clones may be good if you know what you are buying, but people buying clones thinking they are buying originals ARE ripped off, nothing else. This is illegal for that reason, selling someone something as being something else. Remove the HTC branding in the announcement (on ebay for instance...), i am ok with it. But i spotted several listings for "HTC T4242" which were instead for "HTY T4242+" or "T4288". This is not good.
And please don't say it is faster. Processor is not everything you know... Clones have half the ram, half the rom...
And finally, what will happen if you have an issue with it? When you buy a device, you also buy support. Buy clones without support (THIS is support, when your device break, you can make it repaired) if you want, but don't advise people to do the same without giving them all the information.
T4242 quality
Look, the argument can go either way. I have personally had this phone for months and purchased many for family and also recommend them. To answer your question, they are not the same. This one has a faster more expensive processor for half the price and I have found that they perform faster. The quality is great. As far as support, there is a community to offer ROM's and warez sites for any software including GPS. As for warranty, cell phones have a life of about 2-3yrs tops. These phones are half the price and perform perfectly. So if you are worried, buy a second one as a back up and you will still be ahead of the original.
FYI: The batteries are exactly the same, so is the charger, and casing so all accessories will work except audio related headphones etc. They actually ship with 2 batteries and 2 stylus's and wall charger and decent headphones. Batteries are $5USD with shipping on eBay and so is the charger. Buy a bluetooth headset and forget about the plug in.
Please understand that there are people on this forum who paid good money, over double for a device which does not have the same specs, ships with half the accessories (batteries) and paid for twice the price. I would be bitter too. These phones are made by Hantel, which is part of a large cellphone manufacture CECT. I have purchased thier phone for 3 years and no problem. I have owned P168, Daxian x999+, HTY Q5 and all high quality.
This one is the best bang for your buck in my opinion.
jaygreene24: Clones might be good, but they still are and will be clones and have nothing in common with original. Just deal with it. But do not ask, how it is possible that kitchens, SPLs and so on are not working for them... Btw. You really think that your clone is faster than mine custom cooked original? I don't think so...
4242+是山寨货，不能和我们的这个rom通用
Sorry, but since this is an english forum, you are supposed to write in english...
And why would you write in chinese in a thread asking for an english rom? I just don't get it...
Can anyone post a good link for a current T4242+ english rom?
http://ul.to/wdfc52
This is an English wm6.1 rom that I got from a seller in China. Although its wm6.1 at least it is in english..
I am living in Beijing at the moment and I will try to get a wm6.5 english rom from a seller as soon as I can...
I seem to have inadvertently got hold of one of these... Sorry but the build quality isn't a fraction of HTC's. Anyways it seems like I'd better make the best of a bad situation. In the process of trying to flash the rom I appear to have frozen windows so now I can't access anything on the home screen.
Now - I'm vaguely aware of how to do this sd card flashing business but can someone fill me in? I've figured out how to access the usb update mode but nothing beyond that. Failing that, a hardware hard reset would also be great if I could get the button combination - if there is one lol
Any advice at all very welcome thanks!
hard reset turns out to be - middle circle including outside and inside buttons + red button. Now to get a decent rom to flash
I flashed my T4242+ clone with an english 6.5 rom; works perfectly, wheel and buttons included.
If you want to modify the user interface, add a nice plugin, like Iphonetoday ( there are others, too ), and there is not much left I might need.
I was just thinking about how many times I've had to resurrect my tablets after they've crashed (usually when trying out new ROMs, etc.). There have been moments when I thought, "oh no, I just bricked the thing!" but I've always managed to find a fix, either here on xdadevelopers or one of the other excellent websites catering to Android devices.
What about the folks who just throw in the towel, though? How many people, do you suppose, have just tossed their device aside or chucked it in the trash because they weren't interested in digging deeper for a solution?
Do you think there's a mound of perfectly good phones and tablets out there just waiting to be fixed?
I was going to title this thread - "Musical Kid wants Meep for the Piano - Review reading parents want better tablet" but thought better of it.
We're looking at a tablet for my 7 (almost 8) year old son. He is ADHD and Aspergers and is gifted musically. He saw the commercials for the Meep, went online, looked it up and announced that he wanted that for Christmas. Initially we said yes but then read the reviews and changed our minds. I'm not going to spend $200 for a tablet that sucks just because my son wants one thing - the piano.
I searched the site and found this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1539159 which tells me that it *can* be done. The question is, can it be done with the Meep piano accessory? As that thing is a device specific accessory, I haven't been able to locate any tech specs for it.
For the tablet side, I know I need to get something that has USB Host. Also on the list are gorilla glass and a shock case... but that's because I know my son
Thanks!
Hi guys (obviously) I’m really new here and can only post certain areas, I recently had a falling out with amazon (we broke up for good this time, she was very unfaithful) and I have an ABUNDANCE of Alexa devices. I’m not going to get anywhere near the money I invested into the, by selling the, and I also use the, all the time (without prime they have significantly been not as helpful). Is there a way to root an android OS or Cortana even to run on them instead?
Hello hello! My name is John,
I'd like to say I've been in and out of XDA on off for years and you guys really know your stuff. although I don't understand a lot of what you guys are saying and this is the whole point of this post I would like to learn. I honestly believe I'm in the right place and I'd like you and especially XDA for being here! It's about time somebody did something in the Android market to give us back control of our phones!
I have the worst luck with cell phones if it's not stolen I'm sure to break the screen. I got really good with computers and would like to learn a lot about cell phones. Currently I own a cheap one and it would probably be a good one to start with for that reason. (this is the third one by the way within 3 months.)
I broke the digitizer screen on this one and would like to replace it but I can't find one anywhere online if anyone knows where I might be able to find one please let me know! The phone model is Alcatel TCL LX or A502DL are there any other Alcatel phones that have the same digitizer screen? (5.43 480X960)
Is there a clean OS for this phone? I believe you guys call it a ROM? (8.1 Oreo)
Is anybody out there willing to assist me I'm ready and I'm willing. Thanks ?
