Hi all
Ok,, im a bit of a complete newcomer to modding and customizing phones and the like... and through some miracle i managed to get The patched Hero recovery image from Cyanogen installed permanently on my Hero (G2 Touch)
Just 1 quick question.. does this mean my phone is now rooted? or is that a completely different thing altogether?....
Now if i could only pluck up the courage to install the custom rom.. lol.. Which was my other question actualy.. does the phone need to be rooted before i can install Modaco`s rom?
Many thanks in advance,,, please be gentle.. its a whole new world for me
This was all new to me until I found this site a month ago!
Yes it is rooted.
Download Modaco's latest Rom to your computer.
Rename the file 'update.zip'
Mount your phones sd card on the computer and copy the file over.
Restart your phone holding down the power and home keys.
From the list presented, scroll to 'sd card - update.zip'
Press OK, the when it's finished reboot.
Modaco 2.2 is a great, stable, & fast ROM.

if you have only installed the recovery image the technically you are not rooted as only the recovery environment will have root access.
When the phone is in normal operation you will not have root access.
To get root access you will Have to follow one of the guides to gain root access.
The above steps re: madaco's rom will give you root however he (maodac) also has guides for installing an updated radio which i would also suggest installing.
Again it's an update.zip and the are instructions on his site.
Hope all goes ok!!

... hope all goes ok????
very reassuring!
hi
recently got an Olivepad VT-100 and got it rooted and clockwork Mod installed on the same and also backed up my rom .
So For those who have been struggling to get the same done like me here is a simple guide
1. Get to know that The Olivepad VT - 100 is the same as
these Models : Viewpad 7 Cherry Mobile Superion, Commtiva Linx N700, Spice MI700, and Camangi FM600( found this out the hard way)
for rooting it go here
[TOOL] Viewpad 7 Backup, Root & Recovery - By lakehousetech (thanks to his help i got it done)
Link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1015005
one more link for the same : http://android.modaco.com/topic/324042-clockwork-recovery-for-mi700n700viewpad-7/
For recovery via Rom Manager see below link (note i have not used this)
Link : http://hucqim80.blogspot.com/2010/12/how-to-install-clockworkmod-recovery.html
the superoneclick did not work for me so for those who have the same problem
take ginger break APK from attached install it on ur Olive pad and bang it works with one click
IT worked for me
thanks to Nos0x for this find
Note : i did not use ADB for the commands as im not comfy with the same
i used Terminal emulator from the Pad for the commands
update : i also tried re flashing my nand backup via CWM it worked fine for me
This worked for me as i was willing to take the risk
so remember the risk is always yours and im not responsible if you brick ur phone or anything
Important : on rooting & getting CWM 1st do a Nand backup of ur original Stock rom before trying to flash any rom.So u are always safe & can go back to ur stock Rom
Working roms on our OLivePad

the below roms i have tested and the same works fine on the olivePad

Problem & Solutions with the Pad
hi
well this was a problem i faced today and got a solution for the same wanted to share the same
Problem
well after flashing a custom Rom today i read about a apps2sd which was available in the market i downloaded the same to my pad installed the APK on my pad its some application which said it will enable JIT i clicked on it and the phone restarted and then i had just a blank screen ie it was on but blank
i kind a got a heart attack as my pad is only around a month old but then life is about taking risk right or it wont be fun
solution
i remembered i did some thing similar to what is given below long time back with my old gene aka HTC 3400 win Mob i just tried the same & it worked for me
hold the volume buttons both of them & power button & while holding these two u need to restart by inserting a pin in the restart small hole available next to the mike
on doing the above u will be able to got to ur CWM and u can re install the os u want again that what i did
just sharing my experience in case u get the same problem
thanks

Hey, thanks for the speedy reply. I did try gingerbreak. However, though I can install ans use most root required apps, when I try to manually install busybox, it fails.. is this normal.
the bigger problem is, ever since I first tried to root my olivepad, I am not able to enter recovery mode at all. I am trying all of this just so I can use rom manager and flash into the default rom. ;-( any help here? is there any way I can restore the olivepad to stock. If I unroot the system, can I give it for service under warranty?

hi
if u successfully root & get the CWM installed u can do a nand back up and restore the same but when u root u have the risk of loosing ur warranty
but to my knowledge if u re install the OS and re install ur original image
u need to backup ur oringal via ADB or termemulator pls read lakehousetech thread for details i have given the link in the 1st page
u can do this via terminal emulator or ADB & remove the superuser
i dont think the service guys go all that deep in checking if u have rooted and if u dont have the super user on ur pad i Dont thing they will find out u have rooted ur pad . this is as per my experience in India with my phone
the risk is always yours Kindly note im not responsible for any issues u get into with your Pad
note ; read this too : http://android.modaco.com/topic/324042-clockwork-recovery-for-mi700n700viewpad-7/
it also has info on how to install busy box u can also get a busy box installer from the market
Hi Haree,
Thanks a lot for all the info. And honestly, I don't need to be reminded that me breaking my pad is not your mistake ;-)
Well, I will sure look into the new link.
BTW, I needed a little help understanding something. When I saw the size of my OS partition, I realized there is only 32kb of space left. Due to this, I am unable to use oneclick to copy new files into the OS partition from the sd card. Could you please confirm whether this lack of space in the OS partition is normal?
And I am still searching for a way to force modify the OS partition using some other manual pc oriented means (not the exe's). Would be grateful for your suggestions.
Again, thanks a lot.
Regards
Milton
hi
sorry i dont get ur question are u talking about SD ext part
if so it is better to have more than 1GB and u can do this with CWM
im not a techie i just read and do the needful to get the rom flashed on my phone/Pad
for more tech questions i think its best u ask lakehousetec or any of the rom developers

Thanks Haree, I used GingerBreak and it looks like it worked. I have installed Terminal Emulator and Im not able to get the soft keys to come up, I tried keeping menu button pressed. Can you tell me what is the keyboard software you are using and how you were able to bring the keyboard up in any of the terminal emulators? Also tried the busybox installer, it reports an unexpected error and closes.

Hi Hari,
I'm Rahul.. Have been trying to get hold of a good Custom ROM for my Olivepad for quite sometime now (Must have been blind to have ignored your posts earlier on).
Presently I'm running it on the Stock ROM rooted with z4root with CWM 2.5.1.2.
I have ROM Manager v 4.3.3.3 installed and tried to load CM 7.0.2 and later the other updates but every time it kept saying that there was an error in loading the ROM.
Assuming that I have done everything (rooting and loading CWM) correctly I'm going ahead with the ROMs suggested by you (VPAD7_signed.zip).
Shall keep this post updated on my success (or failure)
I have an italian Tablet s rooted (i see superuser and can use some program that need root) with 3.2.1 rel 2 android. and yes i'm really a noob!

If you did Rescue backdoor,
Then you must download the ISC from Condi’s page,
Put that file on your "External SD"
Then check if you have debugging on ( On your tab )
1. Connect your tab with your PC.
2. Open Condi's AiO Tool 2.7
3. Use Option 3
4. Use Option 1 and follow the steps.
5. The program will ask you something twice choose yes for both.
6. The program will put something on your pc in the folder from Condi. in '_signed' folder that file you have to copy to your external SD/
- Take card out insert in pc.
- Transfer that file.
- Don't forget to replace your SD card before you continue.
7. Run option 4 "Disable recovery signature" that’s in the "Custom rom and flashing Submenu"
8. Follow the instructions,
9. The device will reboot and you must restart it with pressing Volume up + Power and if the Sony mark appears release only the Power button.
10. When in recovery menu choose install from SD Card and choose "_hack_recovery"
11. Like its said in Condi's tool it will fail and that’s ok
12. Again install zip from SD and the screen will flash and restart Recovery
- Don't worry that’s normal
13. then again choose install from SD and choose "custom_signed_update.zip"
And relax, don’t forget waiting is gold, if you take out the SD card or remove the USB you will have a chance that you brick your device.
Guys buy Condi a beer for his great inventions.

the size of install.zip?
and the sizeof aio/files/_hack_recovery.zip?
maybe GFW block you download file from aio file server
http://sites.google.com/site/condiczek/home/s-tablet-s-allinone/_hack_recovery_v1.zip
you can download it and copy it to aio/files,make sure file name is _hack_recovery.zip
then aio will be much faster
about the mtp,try to install 豌豆荚 or 91助手,it include drivers

Hi together,
I'm trying to root my Huawei Vision U8850. There seems to be only very little information about this phone available, and I've had no luck so far trying various methods.
I've tried SuperOneClick 2.3.3, UnlockRoot, DooMLoRD v4 and some other batch scripts, with no avail. The problem seems to be that the phone is running with Android 2.3.7, and most of the tools are using the Zerg Rush exploit, which seems to have been fixed in 2.3.7.
Zerg Rush always returns a "[-] Hellions with BLUE flames" message, which I suppose means that it failed.
Does anybody know a way of how to get root for this phone?
I've found a Chinese(?) forum where they asked the same question it seems, but I couldn't register there without some sort of code. Maybe somebody knows actually Mandarin/whatever.

ww*.mediafire.com/?aaqs7vt7aavv3
I've found a Russian forum with quite much activity regarding the U8850 Vision. Problem is, I don't speak Russian, and registering on that forum requires you to input a Cyrillic CAPTCHA, which of course didn't work with Window's Character Map.
I've tried to translate the instructions on how to get root from this post: 4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=257207&st=1700#entry14246750
I am however not sure if I understood everything correctly, or if Google Translate was working correctly.
I'm also not sure what exactly the "Russian Channel" firmware will do to my phone (e.g. phone is only in Russion, keyboard is in cyrillic, GPS not working, etc).
The firmware can be found on the official Huawei page (alongside a "Japan softbank" version): huaweidevice.com/worldwide/technicaIndex.do?method=gotoProductSupport&productId=3812&tb=0
Below is my take on the instruction (which I haven't tried yet). Does this sound plausible to you?
Instructions updated, see below.

*** NOTE ***
The forum software won't allow me to post links, and obviously it corrupts text links. So if there appears a space within a link, you have to remove it for the link to work.
Ok, I've successfully performed the root now by creating a custom firmware which includes su, busybox and Superuser.
I've uploaded the firmware here:
mediafire.com/?aaqs7vt7aavv3
To flash the firmware, you will need the "U8850 Upgrade Tool V1.8.4" from here:
ww*.huaweidevice.com/worldwide/downloadCenter.do?method=toDownloadFile&flay=software&softid=NDQwNjQ=
This will erase all of your user data, so save anything before you do this. And of course I'm not responsible if anything bad happens to your phone, all I can say is that it worked for me.
The firmware is based on a Slovenian one found here:
johnnyparanoia.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Huawei%20U8850
I've labelled this method the "Russian Root", because I found the initial instructions on a Russian forum. I've translated the instructions and added anything missing to it.
See below for a detailed instruction on how to create a custom rooted firmware for yourself.

You'll need both Windows and Linux to perform this update (e.g. a second computer, multiboot or a virtual machine).
In Windows:
1) Download the "U8850 Upgrade Tool V1.8.4" from here:
ww*.huaweidevice.com/worldwide/technicaIndex.do?method=gotoProductSupport&productId=3812&tb=0
2) Download the "U8850 (Android 2.3.7)V100R001C279B244SP22(Slovenia TUS Mobil)" firmware from johnnyparanoia.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Huawei%20U8850 or madmodder.co.uk/huawei/u8850/huawei-u8850-firmware-list.htm and extract the contained firmware (we need the SFC-244M-0-8025-A03.nb0 file)
3) Download nb0-utils.jar from yadisk.cc/d/MbFUvzN6bic
4) Download busybox from yadisk.cc/d/JIWwvYPNblL
5) Download su from yadisk.cc/d/XtZXIL9rble
6) Download Superuser.apk from yadisk.cc/d/7TQNlhsFbm1
The following steps need to be performed under Linux:
7) Create and navigate to the folder where you want copy the downloaded files to (e.g. "sudo mkdir /home/username/u8850/")
8) Create a folder where you want the firmware to extract to: (e.g. "sudo mkdir /home/username/u8850/extracted/")
9) Copy the downloaded files to the folder you just created in step 7), using a usb flash drive or whatever means you have (e.g. "sudo cp /path/where/they/are/saved/*.* /home/username/u8850/")
10) Go to that folder: "cd /home/username/u8850/"
11) Unpack the downloaded firmware into the "extracted" folder, using the following command: "sudo java -Xmx512m -jar nb0-utils.jar unpack SFC-244M-0-8025-A03.nb0 /home/username/u8850/extracted"
- Note #1: if this doesn't work, try to install Java first: "sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jre"
- Note #2: extracting the firmware requires quite a lot of RAM, hence we added the "-Xmx512m" flag which allows Java to use up to 512 MB of RAM. Make sure your Linux machine has this much RAM available!
12) The extracted file "SF8-0-244M-0002-system.img.ext3" contains the Android file system, so we need to mount this file.
- To mount it, we first need to create a folder in /media/: "sudo mkdir /media/android"
- And then we mount the file to that location: "sudo mount /home/username/u8850/extracted/SF8-0-244M-0002-system.img.ext3 /media/android/"
13) Copy the previously downloaded "busybox" file to /media/android/xbin/: "sudo cp /home/username/u8850/busybox /media/android/xbin/"
14) Change the file permissions to 755: "sudo chmod 755 /media/android/xbin/busybox"
15) Copy the previously downloaded "su" file to /media/android/bin/: "sudo cp /home/username/u8850/su /media/android/bin/"
16) Change the owner and group of that file to root: "sudo chown root /media/android/bin/su" and "sudo chgrp root /media/android/bin/su"
17) And the rights to 6755: "sudo chmod 6755 /media/android/bin/su"
18) Copy the previously downloaded "Superuser.apk" file to /media/android/app/: "sudo cp /home/username/u8850/su /media/android/app/"
19) And change the permissions to 644: "sudo chmod 644 /media/android/app/Superuser.apk"
20) Now unmount the image file again: "sudo umount /media/android"
21) And pack the firmware again into a .nb0 file: "sudo java -Xmx512m -jar nb0-utils.jar pack /home/username/u8850/firmware_rooted.nb0 /home/username/u8850/extracted/"
Now we're finished in Linux, the actual flashing has to be done in Windows.
22) Somehow transfer the newly created firmware_rooted.nb0 file to Windows (e.g. with a USB stick).
23) Unpack and install the "U8850 Upgrade Tool V1.8.4". This will install a "SUT L3" program ("Software Update Tool") and the USB drivers for the U8850 Vision.
24) Connect your phone with a USB cable and use the Software Updater to flash the firmware_rooted.nb0 to the phone.
Don't get (too) nervous during the flashing and booting procedure, it does take quite a while.
After completion, all of your data will be reset and the phone should now be rooted. To check, use e.g. "Root Checker" from the market or any app that needs root rights.

I haven't noticed any particular problems which I could connect to the rooting process. Yesterday it did take the phone quite a while before getting a GPS fix, but it has done that before (seems to be a general problem for me, even with AGPS settings), but GPS itself was working fine after that.
I'm also having some issues where the internal partition (resp. the /system/ folder) reports an error that there's no space left on the device, e.g. when trying out AdAway instead of AdFree Android. And the latter was working fine.
Besides that, it's working fine. I can call / be called, camera is working, music is working, radio is working (if you can call that working).
I haven't figured out yet how to install the Clockworkmod Recovery yet though. It's still requiring a valid certificate for the update.zip on the Recovery screen, that hasn't changed.
Hi guys,
U8850 Update Tool crashes when trying to flash a phone with the rooted imaged, works just fine with other images. Anyone else facing this problem ?

Nevermind, it was the filename that confused the Update Tool, changed the filename to a shorter one and it worked, it flashed it, now booting.

Yes, I'm afraid Dropbox doesn't really like public links, they've disabled that feature temporarily for my account. Although I severly doubt I've really reached the limit of 20 GB/day for this single file...
I've uploaded the file to Mediafire now, although I had to split the archive to make that work. I hope it'll live longer there.

Can you remember what the error message was when the filename was too long? Did it look like this:
