Hello,
To install to clockwork recovery manually I replaced the recovery.img file but when i restarted my phone it says:
Image signature verify fail
Your boot/recovery image may have an incorrect signature.
Please update your image to a signature official one
you can remove battery for power down.
now i can access only to pink screen, but when i connect my phone with a usb cable then computer only checks drivers etc but does not open a drive where i could change recovery.img back to normal.
maybe some drivers are missing..
also made video of it: https://www.dropbox.com/s/48ogtdy7momwout/VIDEO0007.mp4
anyone? Help me please
i can get to firmware update but it always fails
Solution to ur problem
Had the same problem.. but solved it by following these:
Insert microSD card into ur pc via card reader,etc.
Download the file B919_official.7z. from (kaefert.is-a-geek.org/huawei_honor/B919_official.7z)
Extract the contents of the archive to the root of the microSD card.
Create a new folder named “dload” (without the quotes)
Within the “dload” folder, copy 2 files named “UPDATE.APP” and “UPDATE_CUST.APP” (without the quotes) from the extracted content of B919_official.7z.
Insert the microSD card into the Huawei U8860. Do not power on the Huawei Honor U8860.
While the Huawei Honor U8860 is powered off, press and hold Vol Up + Vol Down + Power. Release the buttons when it starts flashing.
The Huawei Honor U8860 should power on and reflect flashing 1/2, followed by 2/2.
Wait for it to complete.
There u got the mobile back good as new.
Note: ur data that is not memory card will be deleted.
thanks it worked. had the same problem and solved
thanks it worked. had the same problem and solved.
U8860 inage signature verify fail
Have the same problem and would appreciate any help extended
Mine is that accidentally renamed the image file without the extension ".img" thus android does not recognize it.
i had disabled usb debugging and am thus unable to connect my phone via usb to change the name.
my phone was rooted though
i am able to reach the pink screen but any effort to flash in a new ROM fails
i had not installed CMW and was running ics.
Please help.
is there any way to enable usb debugging when phone is off and cant start?

You'll have to use this downgrade patch first, before you can install the stock ROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33000395&highlight=b930+downgrade#post33000395
1) erase all data on usb card
2) extract downloaded file and move the folder dload to the card
3) volume up, down and power to install update
4) erase the card again
5) now move the dload folder with the stock ROM to the card
4) volume up, down and power to install update
5) after the installation the phone reboots several times
6) done
good luck :good:

Hello.
This question may have been repeatedly asked, but I have not found a complete answer.
I want to make a backup for Huawei Mediapad - or rather, the myself firmware version.
Most try to have the new modified version of the firmware with root access or just official.
The most stable, in my opinion, is C170B008. But annoying that every time I have to do a lot of action to modify a set of programs after reflash.
I tried to modify the contents of /system (system.img.ext4) and /cust (cust.img.ext4).
#mount filename.img.ext4 foldername
Actions with MC (delete/insert any files, set's permissions)
#umount filename....
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
After unmounting and packaging it into update.zip - try to install it on a MediaPad, "settings-...-install from SD" only - and getting error at the beginning of the process. --> reboot to old OS.
Please, write this - what I'm doing wrong.
Or, (the best action), add this full manual for working with MediaPad images, archive.
you have to put the update.zip in the 'dload' folder on your sdcard. Deactivate Quickstart in the Settings, Power off the device and start it with Power + Volume+. This should do the trick.

this method = my method of flashing, not?
when flashing started:
1. on the screen shows a green robot and the progress bar
2. is 5 seconds
3. on the screen shows a red message "Failed to flash"
It means:
- I tried the wrong way to work with partition
- I tried to pack the archive without a signature or whatever...
Hm this issue is weird. Here's how I do it.
- Ubuntu 10.04 VM
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1373814
- After unmounting the Image I copy it to my Windows 7 Desktop
- Open an unmodified update.zip with 7-Zip and just move the system.img.ext4 into the 7-Zip-Window.
- It starts repacking and after that I can use it without any problems on my Mediapad
Then I try the "mount" command with the "loop" option.
May be, this is the reason for flash failure

Did you try to flash using fastboot, this is how I revived my machine the first time I messed up

Fastboot mode works good.
I'll wait, still think that there can be done. Now Ubuntu is taken a great interest for work on tablet.
Hi to all! My tablet is bricked I can open the recovery menu, but, even if i can use "adb sideload" command from my pc, i don't have a rom to send to my tablet. How can i solve the problem? The tablet can boot but it remains in the "initial configuration page", because a system process always crashes".... Please help me
If you can get into recovery and other things your not bricked, junior member. I don't know the exact process but if someone with an a1000 knew or was willing and instructed they could dump the rom and if someone knew how could make it into a flashable zip, maybe, like I said don't know the exact process

in twrp "BACKUPS"
in backups "LENOVO_A1000_MT8317"
PUT THE RESTORE FILES IN A FOLDER CREATE THE "RESTORE FOLDER" IN ABOVE LENOVO FOLDER
Hope This helps
Caution MAKE SURE TO BACKUP YOUR IMEI AND MAC ADRESS AND BLUETOOTH ADRESS
Note : Step 6 and 7 can be shortcutted by Pressing on the hard reset button while/while not connected to PC
: this will erase all data on your internal memory, so keep all the data you wanna back up in PC or External SD card and remove it (just to be safe)
ok, so
Step 1 google A1000F_A412_01_23_130822_ROW_USER, you should find it in 4shared(dot)eu
Or http://www.4-shared.eu/download/bt6fqlKPInMXDN3q7CPuW1/A1000F-A412-01-23-130822-ROW-USER.html
Step 2: once you finish downloading, extract it, then go to the FlashTool folder and look for FlashTool.exe
Step 3, once you open FlashTool.exe, Click the checkbox DA DL All with Checksum
Step 4 Now load scatter file MT6577_Android_scatter_emmc (located in A1000F_A412_01_23_130822_ROW_USER Folder, it will be the only file show other than the flash tool folder)
Step 5 now click Format> Format All partition except Bootloader > validation > ok
Step 6 Now connect your USB to MiniUSB (charger cord) to the computer but DO NOT PLUG IT YET TO THE PC
Step 7 now hold down on your Up volume button and wait 10 sec. then plug it into pc
Step 7.1 (not really) the loading bar on the bottom of SP flash tool should turn red and other difirent colors, once its finished, there should be a popup saying OK, Close it and youre done
Step 8: now Click on download, after you download, look at Step 6 to 7.1
Step 9 IF the device fails to boot, download this ( will put link to A1000F fix tool)
Step 10 press the hard reset button (besides SD card slot) or Follow Step 6 to 7.1
Step 11 Boot UP
To install TWRP 2.5 ( Found it in lenovo russian forums) (Tested the file) (worked for my IdeaTab A1000-F)
Step 12 Download From This (Direct Link) http://lenovo-forums.ru/Files/OS/Tablets/A1000/Custom/A1000T_TWRP_v2.5.0.0.zip
Step 13 Extract it
Step 14 IGNORE the included scatter file from the TWRP download (had problems with it) and follow Step 4
Step 15 On the loaded files from Scatter file, look for recovery ( 7th File), Click on it, there should be a file explorer pop up
Step 16 On the file explorer pop up, look for the A1000F_TWRP_v2.5.0.0 folder you just extracted AND then click on the recovery.img found inside
Step 17 Now Choose Firmmware -> Upgrade and do Step 10
TO ROOT WITHOUT PC (must do step 1-17)
Step 18 Boot to recovery (hold power button + up volume button AT THESAME TIME)
Step 19 You should be at TWRP recovery, Tap on Reboot>System and there should display a warning about the system not being rooted, and it should prompt you to slide to root, SLIDE IT, it should reboot automatically
Step 20 in your app drawer, look for SU installer and click on it,Your going to be prompted to innstall SU via playstore or via TWRP (i did it via TWRP bacause im lazy, and the system apps are updating, but your free to do otherwise) it should reboot, and vioala, your rooted
To Update Firmware
Step 21 Open SuperSU>settings>scroll down>enable pro (SuperSU should restart) then Open SuperSU again>settings>survival mode
Step 22 Download This (download 1) (will update to put link) and this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.mkrtchyan.recoverytools
Step 23 Open the Rashr Flasher tool you just downloaded from playstore and find Download 1 then navigate Download 1 file location (Named Recovery Folder) > Stock and tap on the recovery img
Step 24 download and install the Update from Settings>about tablet>Firmware Update (make sure you have enabled survival mode in super Su, or else you will loose root privilages)
To go back to TWRP

Hello
here i am posting here because i cant post on Miscellaneous Android Development , how ever i think i post there before while working on B5512
I Just got new G700 it came with B115 middle east channel , phone is good but as a start is there is a update i must ask my self is root ready , and CWM for sure so i start the digging
@chamaruco thank you for your great thread which saved and helped many people
now i got a file and i think you were looking for it ""G700-U10_V100R001C00B124CUSTC432D001_Firmware_Portugal_Channel-Others_4.2.1_EMUI 1.8_05021LMW.zip"" it contain usb upgrade and sd upgrade with drv and flash tool
i notice EMUI 1.8 not 1.6 which i saw for example a permission manager with it on P6 is that here in that rom too ?
is that rom improved than mine b115 phone is good for first look but
(in B115)
1-camera quality is strange i dont mean bad but it look very strange it is like very poor on quality
2-in call volume is too low in my opinion all " in test mode"
Question now did any one get that update "EMUI 1.8 B124" can tell is there is any improvements ?!
Question am i able to flash CWM image directly with flash tool to save some annoying procedures ?!
a member here provide flasher and cwm.img and orginal recovery.img
i did not work with the phone yet need to shift data from old phone remove ext2 part and prepare for change , and feeling lost here
want to strike it all once
i will upload "EMUI 1.8 B124" soon as it came from a private server
any suggestions are welcome
When you install 1.8 you will notice there is only a tap error from uploader..it is a 1.6 emui. That's all.

But my mobile does not boot into CWM recovery mode as i have seen in my previous Qmobile A8 it always restarts in the defualt recovery mode which only give options to "1. reboot, 2. update from SDcard, 3. update from cashe, 4. wipe/delete user data and wipe/delete cache and in the last there is a calibarate TP, AND OFF COURSE THESE ALL ARE THE ANDROID BUILTIN RECOVERY STEPS NOT OF THE CWM
And off course there is not any file or folder named update.app in the downloaded .zip/extracted file. "as i have mentioned above the folder contains a folder named META-INF and three img files named as boot cust and system while a .bin file named logo too.
THANKS FOR YOUR TIME AND HELP.

So after I select the Reworked scatter file there is only the sec_ro partition checked to flash. So after flashing it do I now select the previous scatter file and then flash everything (including preloader)?
I have a Motorola Moto E(XT1022). I bought it recently and just when I first started it, I got the 4.4.4 kitkat update and so I downloaded it right away. Then I realised one of the biggest problems of Moto E i.e. 2.2 gb storage. So i dug into find how to install apps on sd card and got to know that you have to root the phone. On xda, I found various ways to root but they were only for the 4.4.2 version of the phone and others were update to 4.4.4 on aldready rooted devices. Please tell me the way to root my device. Also as I am new to this, I dont understand any words like bootloader, fast recovery, etc. Please help me. Thank you in advance.
Edit: Can I use the way given by deej_roamer in his post here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2755336
Edit: I am sorry to have posted this in the general section. I don't know how to move it now to the questions section. Sorry again.
Thank You DAVI FELICANO and deej_roamer for their help. I have now successfully rooted my phone. If someone else has a problem, go to Page 2 for the solution.
You can use the defalt method, dont need to change anything.
Who told you that you need root to move apps to sd card?
Once you insert sd card you will get an option in settings/apps to move apps to sd card for those that can be moved.
This is though limited to Apks only and data is still kept in internal sd card.
If this option is not enough for you then you can go the advanced wag by rooting and using gl2sd or link2sd like apps.

You can install only one game due to it's low internal memory. By one game I mean high graphics game. The obb file remains in the internal storage even after moving to SD card. I tried many things like making SD card default storage using SDK tools but to no Vail. Guess the only way now is to root it & use apps like gl2sd

I followed the thread by deej_roamer here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2755336
Try out my steps:
[Your phone battery must be at least 75%]
1. First download "Fastboot" from the thread. (Click on the "mfastboot-v2" link in the thread)
2. Next install it in a folder and remember that folder. Also, make sure you select the option of "Create shortcut on Desktop" during installation.
3. Next download CWM recovery from this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e/general/root-moto-e-rooting-flashing-recovery-t2802971 (Click on the "CWM 6.0.4.9 recovery For MOTO E" link in the thread)
4. Copy the "cwm6.0.4.9_recover.img" file to the installation folder of fastboot.
5. Next download SuperSU v2.02 from here - http://download.chainfire.eu/452/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02.zip (Click on "UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02.zip" link)
6. Don't Extract Supersu zip file.
7. Connect phone to pc. Copy the zip file to your internal memory(the directory of int. memory is /sdcard) (The directory for ext. sd card is /storage/sdcard1).
8. Remove your phone from your pc.
9. Switch off your device.
10. Turn on your device by holding power off button and volume down button together for 6-7 seconds. Quickly connect your phone to your pc.
11. The bootloader must be showing usb connected.
12. Run fastboot from your desktop.
13. Now type this (without quotes) - "fastboot flash recovery cwm6.0.4.9_recovery.img"
14. Look at the screen of device. It must be showing "Mismatched partition size (recovery)". It is normal don't worry.
15. Press volume down once (recovery will be selected) and then volume up so that it goes into recovery.
16. It will show the bootloader unlocked warning. Don't worry about it.
17. Your phone should now be in CWM recovery.
18. Don't do anything except what I tell you.
19. In this menu movement is done by the volume rockers ans selection by power button.
20. Press volume down so that "install zip" is selected.
21. Press power button.
22. Select "choose zip from /sdcard". Press power button.
23. Find the SuperSU.zip file(It will probably be in the "0/" folder)
24. It will ask to confirm install. Select Yes.
25. SuperSU will be installed.
26. Select CWM reboot. When you select CWM reboot, it will display "root access possibly lost - Fix?". PLEASE Select "No".
27. Your phone will now reboot. (The bootloader unlocked warning will be shown and then the boot animation).
28. Open your menu(in the phone) and find SuperSu app (a # symbol will be there in its icon).
29. Disconnect your device from the pc.
CONGRATULATIONS YOU HAVE A ROOTED MOTO E.
If you ever wish to flash any other recovery (like twrp),
1. Copy the file to the fastboot installation folder in your pc.
2. Then reboot your device into bootloader and quickly connect it to your pc.
3. Run fastboot from your desktop and then type the following without quotes: "fastboot flash recovery cwm6.0.4.9_recovery.img"
4. Instead of writing "cwm6.0.4.9_recovery.img" write the complete file name including extension. For eg. if file name is "twrp_recovery_2" and has extension ".img" then write "fastboot flash recovery twrp_recovery_2.img"
I hope that this solved your problem brother.

I have a Motorola Moto E(XT1022). I bought it recently and just when I first started it, I got the 4.4.4 kitkat update and so I downloaded it right away. Then I realised one of the biggest problems of Moto E i.e. 2.2 gb storage. So i dug into find how to install apps on sd card and got to know that you have to root the phone. On xda, I found various ways to root but they were only for the 4.4.2 version of the phone and others were update to 4.4.4 on aldready rooted devices. Please tell me the way to root my device. Also as I am new to this, I dont understand any words like bootloader, fast recovery, etc. Please help me. Thank you in advance.
Edit: Can I use the way given by deej_roamer in his post here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2755336
Edit: I am sorry to have posted this in the general section. I don't know how to move it now to the questions section. Sorry again.

Is your recovery.img placed in the "C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot"?
It need to placed in it or you'll get an error.
Boot loader is LOCKED !! cannot be unlocked !! so no root for me ?
After 3 days tried to find out how to recovered or fix bootloop/brick ME170C, here is the way which was succeed for me.
1. Download latest firmware from ASUS website
the best way using complete firmware (containing stock rom) like this version UL-K017-WW-11.2.3.18.2-user, if succeed then later on you can continue with OTA system update
2. Rename the firmware file to K017_sdupdate.zip and put on SD card then Insert the SD card into a tablet. (Use good one SD card, Sandisk perfect I don't know others)
3. Download flashtools and USB driver at the bottom of this thread
4. Enter the DROIDBOOT, for this purpose on the tablet off push and hold button volume + and power then connect USB cable to tablet and PC.
5. Open your firmware archive and copy or drag & drop the boot.img, fastboot.img, splashscreen.img into Flashtools folder ( in computer )
6. go to flashtools folder and then push button shift and right click together and choose “Open command windows here”, to start open CMD on the right folder (in computer)
7. Test your device by typing fastboot devices on that cmd (in computer)
8. Enter the queue codes on CMD; (in computer)
fastboot erase cache
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase system
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash fastboot fastboot.img
fastboot flash splashscreen splashscreen.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
8. Disconnect the USB cable and select the SD update or Recovery.
9. Take your coffee and sit, walaaaaaaa I see you are smiling

So awesome you figured this out! Glad it worked out for you and I'll be saving this in case I find myself in the same boat. Thank you for this!!
Sent from my Nexus 6
K01A, aka ASUS MeMO Pad ME170CX
Prod date 2014-10 IIRC.
I appreciate you taking time to create this thread, have been unable to flash stock firmware to the ME170CX using just the ME170CX itself. ASUS website just mentions a SOP method and when I insert SD that has had the firmware files which have been extracted (1) time to the SD card, the prompt that is supposed to "pop-up" on the taskbar as mentioned in the PDF's I found online about the SOP method does NOT occur.
(I have 2 ME170CX's about 30-days old running 4.4.2, firmware Version WW_V11.2.3.27 in which one of them all the sudden the camera app crashes 100% of the time, then gives a "No camera is found" error message.
Beyond a hardware issue no-one knows what causes this beyond (1) poster that mentioned he thought problem first occurred after hitting the "Home" button right after hitting the cam icon and the thought is the app gets confused by this and the app/firmware for the camera gets corrupted.
Reset via OS itself. Wiping data and choosing "Recovery" in DROIDBOOT with "FASTBOOT" text at bottom of screen didn't make any difference. Camera is dead, dead, dead.
Figured I'd re-flash with same Version WW_V11.2.3.27, if that doesn't work try Version WW_V11.2.3.28 before RMA'ing it back to ASUS so I appreciate you listing the steps, and also attaching the needed files.)

Question about Step 2, Please clarify:
2. Extract (archive in archive) and throws to the SD card. Rename the file to K017_sdupdate.zip and Insert the flash drive into a tablet. (Use good one SD card)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
To clarify you are saying to extract the firmware from the "zip" package of zip that matches the firmware specific to the device from ASUS, which itself contains a zip file named IFWI.ZIP (1 ), one time, then rename the file named IFWI.ZIP (which contains 4 Bin files) to K017_sdupdate.zip.
Upon extraction process completing and renaming the zip you then copy the contents over to a known good MiroSD of at least 2GB which is formatted FAT32 to the ROOT of the drive.
IE: You do not extract the zip within the archive, you're just renaming IFWI.ZIP to K017_sdupdate.zip?
OR are you saying to extract the BINS also?
If so do these go in the ROOT of the SD card?
Another question, is there a reason for renaming IFWI.zip to K017_sdupdate.zip?

some firmware when you download it from asus site ZIP compresed twice, you can rename it directly from WW_V11.2.3.28.zip to K017_sdupdate.zip, if your device is K01A try to renaming firmware to K01A_sdupdate.zip and then put in SD card (do not created any folder in SD card ). the key to success is the SD card compatibility with ASUS DROIDBOOT, I was using Sandisk SD card. I did format fat32 the SD card and insert in another android devices first and then put the renamed firmware file there.
inside firmware file there is boot.img, fastboot.img and splashscreen.img you need to extract it in flashtool/fasboot folder and then flashing it your tablet. this trick to make firmware recognize correct devices to be update.
try again.

RE: boot.img, fastboot.img and splashscreen.img you need to extract it in flashtool/fasboot folder ???????
Having some progress, renaming ifwi.zip which contains (4) bin files when Recovery was selected caused the robot with the Updating System Settings to appear, but a couple of seconds later it said ERROR with the robot laying on it's back, then it exits. Device reboots as normal.
To clarify:
WW_V11.2.3.28.zip download from ASUS was extracted with a Windows computer,
WW_V11.2.3.28.zip extracting /creating following folders, files, then the contents were copied to the ROOT of a MicroSD card formated Fat32
1: boot.img, fastboot.img and splashscreen.img (TO ROOT)
2: ifwi.zip to ROOT. (contains (4) bin files, is this supposed to be extracted to I assume folder by same name off root? OR does this ZIP file just get renamed?)
3: System folder
4: Recovery folder
5: META-INF folder
I do not see a flashtool/fasboot folder. (Fastboot, right?)
Q: Is boot.img, fastboot.img and splashscreen.img supposed to be in a folder named "Flashtool" OR are they supposed to be in folder named "Fastboot" with a pathway of Root (Drive) D:/Flashtool/fastboot ?
.
(NOTE ALL OF THIS IS BEING DONE ON THE DEVICE ITSELF, with contents on SD card.)
Still getting the ERROR! message wit the Adroid robot that is laying on his back.
The zip file that extracts from the main zip WW_V11.2.3.28.zip is named:
ifwi.zip...
I have left a copy of it in the ROOT, plus copied it and renamed it to
K01A_sdupdate.zip
K017_sdupdate.zip
LEAVING COPIES OF ALL IN THE ROOT OF THE SDCARD.
Q: If more than (1) zip is present does this confuse fastboot? OR does fastboot automatically look for zip zip which matches model ID of device? (K01A)
I have left copies of boot.img, fastboot.img and splashscreen.img in the ROOT of the drive.
AND
Created: (ROOT) flashtools/fastboot with *img files in it.
Created: (ROOT) fastboot with *img files in it.
Copied the *img files to under "Flashtools" folder in flashtools/fastboot.
Figuring all the bases would be covered. (EG: *img Files in ROOT, files in Flashtools, Flashtools/fastboot, and a folder named fastboot as well.
Q: I've noticed on the SD card files appearing that previously were not there, when the flash aborts is there some kind of file or files you need to delete, or is it ok to leave the newly generated files there?

ifwi.zip.
K017_sdupdate.zip
Tried:
K01A_sdupdate.zip
Still getting robot on it's back with ERROR!
who said you need to renaming ifwi.zip, What you need is read all instruction carefully,
do not put more than 1 zip file in SD card only firmware file which is already renamed to K017_sdupdate.zip, and use good brand SD card.

I've been stuck with the bricked 2 day old tablet for at least 3 months. Today I did the procedure you described and it worked. I had to install version V11.2.3.18.2 and then, once unbricked, apply latest version update.
Again, thanks a lot!.. Best regards.

Hi, am trying to fix my ME170CX because an original root attempt that failed and am getting a demo error message that won't go away.
I tried following all your instructions to fix this but it gets stuck "waiting for device" once I begin entering the commands.
I have tried multiple sd cards (including a sandisk) and both the V11.2.3.27 & V11.2.3.28 firmware versions to no avail.
I also tried naming the zip file K017 & K01A.
I am also wondering why we need to download the USB driver file? I don't see anywhere in your instructions on what to do with this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Youll want to get your answer from him but i think i may be able to help. You need to install usb drivers so you can access abd and give commands to your tablet. Which i think is why it just says waiting for device... I could be wrong though....

OK, I finally got the usb drivers working on my computer and made it through all commands which is much further than I was getting before.
I got to step 8 "Disconnect the USB cable and select the SD update or Recovery" and selected "Recovery" in DROIDBOOT (I don't have an "SD update" option there) and after like 1 second of "installing system updates" I get the android falling over guy error and then it hangs on the asus splash screen for ever.

I used the firmware ME70CX and renamed the file "K01A_sdupdate.zip" and followed all of the other steps as per the original instructions and got my ME170CX working again but for one problem. . . I was still getting the "demo has stopped" error! So I proceeded to attempt root again, this time with RootZenFone-1.4.6r and and now it's working perfectly and rooted as well!
Many thanks to all!!
