Doesn't look like the Avid is getting any dev. love at all. Kinda sucks because a custom rom would make this phone a lot better. Mainly got it to tether my Nexus 7 via hotspot and it works great for that.

Too bad there still isn't anything going on with this phone. I just picked 2 of them and have found very little searching the Web, and just this thread here on xda. Does anyone have the rooting zip file I read about on Android forums. Because of my IP(proxy) I can't sign up there so no download for me

Do you really! Is there any way you could send it to me, or put a link up for a direct download? I would appreciate so very much. As I said before due to the wifi available at my apartments being flagged as a proxy I can't register with there website. Thanks even if you are unable to send me it. Also, has anyone found, seen, or even heard a rumor about any custom roms for this phone?

We only just got a working cwm a few days agbut it shouldn't be long now I guess...
SH!T
So........ Even though there are no ROMs, there's also no section for this phone on the XDA Forums. Well, I have a little problem I'd LOVE to get some help on!
My issue: SOFT BRICKED
- Able to enter into FTM & Stock Recovery
- Unable to boot fully (MetroPCS logo and green Andy logo show up, then screen is black directly after Andy logo) At this point, if connected to PC I can hear audio chime notifying me Windows has detected a device. Computer shows drive label, yet nothing is accessible.
How did I soft brick you may ask? Here's how:
- Attempted to install Beats Audio on my rooted phone
LINK = eapktop.com/beats-audio-installer-2-3-4-0.html
- Half way through, installer says your phone will be rebooted, I tapped Okay. And Skadoosh: Soft Bricked 16GB Metro PCS ZTE Avid 4G
Question: How to install this file/run the stock recover img?! (Pretty sure a simple MicroSD adapter can get the file onto the SD card. But, what then?!
Again, if you help; me love you long time!
ZTE Avid 4G Stock Recovery img can be found here: http://w8mim.com/zte/zte-avid-stock-recovery.img
fix
not sure if that's a ligitimate file (but then again it may be) I used the sdcard update at zte usa website. look for ZTE Avid in the phone listup, and click on support then software updates and then finally on ZTE Avid 4G™ SD Card Software Package
then simply reboot into your recovery and apply the sdupdate (that's saved on the root of the sdcard) and you should be good. Be aware it will remove the root on the phone but you can simply reroot it. also there is a working CWM touch recovery working with Zte Avid and a few slimstock and custom roms as well. Would be a great idea to use the CWM Recovery as ways of recovering your phone if anything happens again.

Hi all,
I have a korean galaxy tab 10.1 (M380W).
Do I need special rom or the regular GT7510 roms will work ?
Thanks,
Ron
Questions or Problems Should Not Be Posted in the Development Forum
Please Post in the Correct Forums and Read THIS
Moving to Q&A
Anyone has an idea ?
Are there any M380W users here ?
i am having a same device like you, korean version, i may say u should not [even] root your tab nor install CWM recovery, it'll break your recovery, even reinstall stock recovery won't work.
I'm stuck now with my tab that i managed to root, but the Super user app and root permission is unstable, sometime it works, sometime not.
even now i don't have guts to unroot nor install new [shiny] roms from devs team, because the recovery UI had been messed, i can't see a damn line.
oh, and the update package 44mb recently released by samsung wont work, although my tab asks me to update it continuously.
this's a nightmare, it's like the korean version is abandoned.
I've had mine rooted since day 1 and have had no issues. As far as roms and cwm, I wouldn't advise it. There is very little to no development/support for this device, as far as I am able to find.
Root it, get ADW Ex and MarketEnabler. Great device, no major issues and has 3.2.
Good luck.

I got it rooted from the first day, too. CWM recovery seem operate fine, just the screen is messed up like an old tv (noise static...), in fact i did one back up and restore with the CWM recovery with no problem.
Also, is your device unlocked? Mine's still locked and it didn't accept any unlock method publicized by devs team nor through other websites up till now.
beside, tab 10.1 is a great device, easy support outdoor works, activities, fun for entertainments, games,...
just the modding part that scared me, haha~
Mine is and has always been locked.
Sent from my SHW-M380W using xda premium
I have same device and try to root, flash it many times but I can't. As you mentioned, this tab seem to be not compatible with CWM recovery and its screen becomes crazy when I enter CWM recovery. Now, it's very nice to hear you can root it and I appreciate if you can share the way to me. Thank you in advance.
Rooting M380W
I'm currently on 3.2 but I had rooted my device before the update so results may vary.
First, you don't need CWM to root. Just the attached zip file.
Go into Recovery Mode by holding Vol Down + Power for about 10 seconds.
Press Vol Down to toggle between Recovery Mode and Download Mode.
Select Recovery Mode by pressing Vol Up.
Use Vol Up/Down to move through the menu.
Move down to "apply update from /sdcard" and press Power
Browse to where you saved the zip file.
Highlight it and press Power.
You should be rooted on next boot.
Good luck!
^That's technically the way it is to root your tab.
Please inbox me any news about modding around this sexy device, as i'll do the same
The TouchScreenTune, Titanium backup, CWM recovery (with visual problem) work fine on my rooted korean version (SHW-M380K)

Thank you very much, Koe1974. Finally, I already rooted for my device. I would ask you some more questions:
Can this tab up the custom firmwares (like Overcome) with stock recovery or CWM recovery (by count click)?
How to overclock this tab?
Thank again for your help.
I've just found it and trying to unlock my tab:

FYI: It seems the US varients of the tab are getting the 63mb update we got last month. We also recieved a small one on 11/11 which had something to do with the hdmi output, not really sure though. And I just noticed a new one today, 11/13. I see no info about what it is on the samsung mobile site but it's about 10mb.

Stock rom, I'm not sure....
As for the hard keys, I'm pretty sure they would be Home+Volume Up+Power
That's if you haven't installed a custom recovery on it

Bricked LG US760
Hello to all. I have a bricked LG Genesis (US760) from US Cellular. Can anyone tell me what steps to take and unbrick this phone. It was given to me and I just want to see if I can do it. Any and all help would surely be appreciated.
Thanks.
There's like no support for that device

I have a us760 LG Genesis. I rooted mine using gingerbreak app. Worked great. Very easy. Installed busy box using busybox from market. But you are right there is no support for this phone. No custom recovery that I am aware of. No custom roms. I am running Launcher Pro Plus. I have done a system clean using Diagnosis app from market and it seems to run faster. Elixir2 from market is able to set cpu governers and freeze the US Cellular installed apps. The only problem I have now is the external speaker isn't very loud. Which has been a problem for me on a couple of LG phones. I am currently looking for a fix/mod for the volume. With no luck so far, since there is no custom recovery available. I would try to install the bravia/xloud and see if anything changes, but again, no custom recovery. Any suggestions about this would be helpful.

Gained root.
Thought I would let others know that Bin4ry script from Sony Experia thread works for a hassle free root on Telstra Urbane Zte T22.
Now just need find a recovery.
I agree!
I got his phone a while and successfully rooted it and flashed recovery CWM.
The stock is so laggy and slow. Would love a replacement.
Install CWM for the phone (which I have) by personal messaging me and I will send you the URL, silly XDA rules. -.-
also there is heaps of custom roms there that work for the t22. Trial and error, I have cm10 and a few others already on my phone. )
Sounds great. Are you able to let us know which phones roms work with T22?
Sent from my brick.
I have tried a few for the Blade 3, there is quite a variety, some work some don't, but since they are nearly the exact same phone, the t22 will work with nearly any rom for the blade 3.

Found a way to unlock it for free. Tryed to follow these instructions using google translator 4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=376369 its kind of a downgrade back to 2.2.3 and it worked, now I just have to get back to ics
Name of a custom rom?
Any have a rom that WILL work with the t22?
Thanks for your time, much appriciated!
Plenty of Roms on Modaco, I think it is, just search up Blade3 Cyanogenmod and it should come up with one by Konstang.
Sent from my LG-E975K using xda premium
Stock Rom?
Hi there,
2 things: yes, you can install many Blade3 ROMs in the T22, and the most popular that is confirmed to work is an unofficial port of CyanogenMod (you can install 10.2, but it still needs official development from Qualcomm before FM Radio and Bluetooth work, so I suggest 10.1), compiled by developer KonstaT.
As I have the New Zealand version of this device, I can confirm it works well, and will certainly do so here. However:
I advise against doing it if you don't know how to backup and restore a nandroid, purely because there are NO STOCK ROMS available from either ZTE or Telstra websites, and without that backup, you'll have no choice but to void any warranty you may have had if you neglected to do so! Even I find that idea annoying, and yet I don't have that problem!
Just a friendly warning from a cousin across the ditch.
Thanks I'll check it out.

I need a stock recovery for Metro PCS Samsung Galaxy S3 (SGH-T999N)
Please I installed clockworkmod recovery onto my phone and didn't realize It wasn't going to be easy to remove it im trying to revert back so I can receive ota updates on my phone. Next month I heard talk about samsung releasing the kit kat update 4.4 to this phone correct me if im wrong. But if that's the case I would love to revert back so I can receive it inless you know of other ways of getting it other than installing custom roms....witch im not comfortable doing....I already messed up my phone in the process of rooting doing the ad block app....which then when I uninstalled it. I couldn't connect to the google servers.....so I had to go back and edit the host file and got it working finally but now I just want to remove this recovery I mean it seemed like a good idea at the start and I know a lot of people say it's amazing which indeed it is but I want to update my rom I know people say do complete wipe and install the stock rom and that should remove it but I'm iffy on the subject because I don't want to brick my device if it doesn't agree with something. I'm not all that new to rooting I had a coolpad quattro which I rooted in the past **** phone btw don't ever buy it. As well as my first galaxy 1 from verizon and a galaxy aspire. but im having problems trying to understand and avoid bricking my device because I haven't even finished paying it off and it's 400 dollar device plus interest.....:crying::crying:
I just wanted to root not get clockworkmod recovery.....dammit fml....
Guess nobody wants to help?

You can pull the stock recovery from the this factory firmware.

EDIT: Here is the link to just the stock recovery image itself... http://d-h.st/XDe
Just delete the .MD5 extension to unzip the tar file. Not sure why that is
there.
The above firmware would have been about a 1gig download... doh!
So this should work? How much of a guarantee that this will? I don't wanna mess up do any professional help would be awesome. I hear this is a great community but I just want reassure like since I've been rooted and done stuff will that soft brick or hard brick my device? 2i appreciate the help I'm just scared and can't afford this so called jig.

I'm a bit stressed not but not really concerned as far as things go the phone runs fine. As far as YouTube goes I can't find anything about this phone its relatively new from metro but I know the 4.4 update comes out next month. And as I've seen it's better correct me if I'm wrong. But if nobody can help me I'll stick with what I have. It's just mind racking because I know so much about computers and it's easy to fix a pc as far as these phones go they are like a computer or not all that new to Linux but this a lot different.

I see from googling your device seems like there aren't any devs for a ROM on your device however it does have a preinstalled 3e recovery which is a basic one but as for new ROM I do not believe there is a custom recovery or ROM at the moment sorry man. Hopefully if it has more demnland for being built it might have some Dev interests. However though I can give you a place where you can ask for a custom recovery to be built by some indie devs. Unleashedprepaids.com is a good place to check for info and ask for a custom recovery build. Good luck man.

So do you think in the built in recovery I could back up his stock rom? I too saw that it had a reckvery. But I don't have the phone in front of me to try anything.
Sent from my SM-N900V using XDA Free mobile app
I would want to say no because it's a stock recovery that they included it may have while options and or side loading with adb maybe but as for backing up I'm not sure most likely not. The only way I've personally done backups without a custom recovery was with nandroid backup which is also what I used for my lg 70 I used to own and it did really well on backing itself up I made a guide on that ms323 specific device on unleashedprepaids form in the lg section of MetroPCS . just make sure you have busy box installed if you do nandroid backup route.
