Micromax A116 / Mobistel Cynus T5: custom-rom compatibility - Micromax A116

Dear developers,
the Micromax A116 and Mobistel Cynus T5 are identical in its hardware specs afaik. The Micromax A116 has been lauchend under a different brand / model here in EMEA called Mobistel Cynus T5.
I tried several customs-roms on my Cynus T5 without any major problems, so there is not so much work to be done in order to get a compatible custom-rom for Mobitel Cynus T5.
The only problem is: The SIM with 3G activated (SIM1 in my case) runs without any issues but the SIM without 3G (SIM2 in my case) is not able to connect to any 2G network. I think that this issue is related to GSM-900 networks only because I'm able to see GSM-1800 networks but not any GSM-900 network on SIM2.
I've heard that the A116 has no support for GSM-900, so I decided to extract the baseband (modem.img) out of my stock-rom and replace the baseband in the custom-rom with this one. But after a reboot I'm stil unable to see any GSM-900 network.
I would appreciate you help and a lot of people in EMEA also!
Should we try to replace the RIL together with the BB? What else has to be done?
Thanks
Regards,
phiber

Same here. How to exchange the RIL?

OK, I found out that replacing modem.img with root-explorer isn't enough:
The BB must be flashed using CWM or SP-Flashtools.
When upgrading to a custom-rom the BB isn't updated automatically.
So my T5 runs with the stock BB (MOLY.WR8.W1248.MD.WG.MP.V6.P6) after flashing the custom-rom which means that the problem is not related to BB.
Yes, IMEIs are stil present after flashing custom-rom. No issue with APNs so far ...
I'm helpless right now ...

I had the sane problems.
In the custom ROMs i replaced the modem.img with the original one from Stock-ROM and then I flashed again.
Now both SIMs are working well.
I also use original (stock) apns-config.xml to fit austrian providers.

Thanks! You saved my day!
I had to replace the modem.img within the flashable zip file of the custom-rom. After flashing the modified zip with CWM all things are fine now.
Maybe this will help some other people, too.

Hi,
since i had to flash anew ROM on my T5, cause to a crash, I have also problems with the 2nd SIM.
Is there anywhere an uploaded ROM with this problem fixed. I'm not an expert to fix this problem myself.
Thanks for help.

I was going to request for the touch version to be ported to Canvas HD as I always have a feeling that the hardware buttons will wear out or break (don't know why )

If nothing works and your device is still under warranty then, go back to stock and be sure that your cell is not rooted. See that your IMEI no. is correct and in place and take it to MMX centre and get a brand new Canvas HD. I do this a lot.

Any update from this sir? I too have experience this issue after flashing custom rom my phone dont recognize 2nd sim.

[Q] Y300 IMEI bricked, searched everywhere, help please

I was installing different custom roms without problems and one day I decided to try Firefox Rom out, I did that and since that day I never got any signals from my network, I did a check on my IMEI it was blank(I have attached a screenshot)
I've tried using CM roms, original stock rom, even Gingerbread just incase :/
I've searched everywhere and found out about 2 softwares that might do the thing .. 1. SigmaKey 2. zZ Huawei Advanced tool
I did not make any backups before so im kinda doomed :/ I still have the IMEI written on the back on the phone though
Problems with SigmaKey:
It starts, says No Smart Card Reader Found.
It says Connect Dongle/Box
Problems with zZ Huawei Advanced tool:
It doesn't start, I've tried 3 different versions with every window's compatiblity set.

Go into the zip file, there will be a folder called modem or a file, extract it, make a flashable zip, tutorials can be found on the forum, flash, wipe cache, davlik, reboot into system.

Your IMEI is having problems because your modem files are either corrupt or a non compatible modem file has been flashed, Flashing the stock modem files will fix this problem.

If it was CWM compatible, then it wasn't the full stock firmware and not likely to flash the modem with it unless specifically stated by the developer of the rom.
So, flash the modem or full official firmware. If that doesn't work, then it's going to be even more of a headache, I'd imagine.

man, I cannot find modem files :/ and I need a little help making a flashable file :/ I'm sorry for being sucha noob
Fist off, I downloaded the official file from the huawei's server which is update.APP and not a zip that I can just open and extract the modem files(if there are any)
Secondly, the other roms that I already have CM, etc .. they are all of ZIP format and after I searched inside them I could not find any modem files man .. is there any information you can provide?

I'm not as familiar with Huawei, as say, Samsung, but I can't say I've seen modem files only posted for many if any Huawei phones I have looked into. Decompiling the update.app, and figuring out how to grab the modem files and getting them to install to the correct partition might be more of a hassle than it is worth. I think all you have to do is put the update.app in a folder called dload on an external SD card and then boot to Software Update mode to let it do it's thing.

I believe i have already done this in the past, but I'm not quite sure as with all the experimenting its hard to keep track of what experiments have you already done lol .. but alright, I'm gonna put the UPDATE.APP inside the dload folder on the sd card ..
just to confirm, software update mode is the recovery mode right? where there are options to format and factory reset and wipe partitions or update via sd card ??
Follow the link (post 2) I sent you earlier. It has the steps that were pulled from the manual on how to update.
If you have a custom recovery, it might be possible to just make an update zip with the build.prop. You can decompile the update.app with this tool I believe: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2315547 to get the unmodded build.prop.

As stated in previous post, cwm flashable rom's don't have the full rom in them, most of the time modem is not included, you need the modem files from stock.

The preloader is a part of flashing ROM. When Lenovo made upgrade to the P780 they creeated a new preloader. The upgreade was made in 03.2014. So.. if your phone was made after this date you must replace stock preloader with this one. Here is a picture with an stiker for the phones made after 03.2014.
Hope this made you to understand.

after i flash the P780_ROW_S226_4GB_KIT_KAT from your link it worked but I didnt test it for the phone signal. I didnt like the ROM because of small free memory so I tried to flash it again to life0.3 which I had before but it was failing with error "brom error: s_ft_readback_fail (4009)".
Since flash or root was failing, I updated it to S228 from inside the phones interface and decide to keep this ROM 228 but I have problems with the signal. It goes up and down all the time and sometimes i have no signal at all.
Can you please tell me a hint? can I fix the signal problem? the phone with this rom is not rooted which I didnt know before i flash it.
If I can not fix the signal problem can I flash it with another rom and have my phone rooted again?
I have read and tried many things but nothing worked and I am confused cause i dont master rooting and all its tricks.
Thank you for your help

thanx a lot stympy! the modem_P780_V101_Life_Vibe did the trick. not the Modem_P780_v.24_S228 which supposed to work.
The only way I could root was with the iRoot tool.
I would like to learn why my ROM does not allow to flash other roms with flash tool. It was a Stock ROM I guess.
If I flash it from TWRP with a rom that can be flashed with TWRP will I brick my phone? I have P780_s221_LiFe_XVIBE_v09 for example that I tried it before the 226 stock rom and it was working.
I have the IMEI Backed up with mobileuncle. Is that enough if something goes complete wrong so I dont have to total recover the phone?
Anyway, I dont want to tire you with many questions. It is that they are so many articles and it is confusing, and most of them are not working as someone would expect.
Thanx again

Hi. Look what you have to do:
Because you allready have TWRP installed do a full backup. For full backup you need to have an SD Card.
After backup you can flash with TWRP all roms that you want ! be careful that your rom, that you wish to flash must be KitKat! ar your phone get softbrick. That is no problem because you can restore your backup made with TWRP.
Good Luck!

Dear stympy. I need more of your help. I can not flash even the one ROM I want. I have TWRP and I am trying to flash the VIBEUI_V2.0_1507 which the need rom guide says that it should be installed through TWRP. Unfortunately I get an error that "this package is for a P780 devices; this is "p780_ROW".
My phone must be CN cause the text on the battery are in Chinese. Am I right?
Can I flash VIBEUI ROM Over a ROW?
i saw in a thread that you have Life_07. Do you recommended?
If you would like to suggest me a ROM that you think is better and how to flash it ( I remind you that I have S228 ROW now) I would really appreciated.
Thanx again man!

Hi. Indeed your phone is made in china, like all P780.
You have installed ROW firmware, witch is one stable OS and latest KitKat for ROW OS.
If you want to get back to chinese firmware KitKat, you could try Baralajbi firmware from NeedRom site. It is a moded firmware, based on latest stable VIBEIU 2.0, i tested and is pretty good.
For old Jelly Bean, Life 0.7 is my favorite.
All this firmware that i told you about is flashing with SP Flash Tool.
Good luck.

All of my problems with flashing the ROMs fixed with the SP Flash tool v5. I don't know why everyone suggests v3. In my case after a dead end and a bricked phone, having errors with v3, when I used v5 I could flash anything I like, recovery, rom, stock, custom and all of my problems were solved.
For anyone who is Interested the CN ROMs where better than ROW. With ROW I had problems with modem, sound, even light sensor. With a custom CN ROM by VDT everything worked perfect and light.
cheers!
Problems with mobile data / background processes
Just a question for you p780 owners,
i have the problem that some times mobile data just stop working. it still shows hsdpa but no data flow, only mobile data disable / enable solves the problem.
i´m using life 1.3.3 on the "old" CN 4gb, upgraded to 228 from 226 step by step the russian way (russian orig.) files, and using "modem by xakep"
have data sim card in slot 1, and a second for calls in slot 2
Network mostly used is umts in germany.
maybe someone has a little recommondation maybe for other modem files
another point is application in background isn´t working until screen is ticked on (using LLAMA Location based Profiles).
(having both "problems" throughout different roms from past (life 0.5 to now 1.3.3)

Yes, there is an unofficial Miui 6 ROM, but it has LOTS of bugs.
Download it from here.
First flash CWM, then boot into cwm and install the rom (the zip).

Actually the CWM available for m2 4G is not permanently flashable. It is temporary and you have to push the CWM image from PC everytime you need to boot into CWM recovery. Trying to flash CWM permanently may brick the phone. However, if you flash the MIUI ROM linked above, you can have the permanent CWM image in the phone.
Remember all these are applicable for M2 4G model only which I have. These are not compatible with the 3G model as that have a different hardware.
thank u very very much to give reply mee

Attaching the 5.0.2 custom ROM screenshot I am using. This ROM is from 4pda.RU and exclusively for 4g model. I have also used MIUI but its 4.4.2 and a bit buggy. So shifted to this which is running great.

ROM for InFocus M2
I have not developed this ROM but just find this from some Russian site.
Install on your own risk
Have attached screen shots, they look awesome!
link for ROM: I was unable to attach link so if you want to download this ROM, you can mail me for link! Feel free to mail
Instructions to INSTALL:
1. Backup data
2. Extract the downloaded archive with the firmware to your computer.
3. Connect your phone to your computer or disconnect before the last paragraph of the instruction.
4. fmw copy the folder to the root of the SD cards.
5. Check that the folder fmw on the card contains all three files (system.img, boot.img, cda.img)
6. From the folder windows \ linux (depending on what is on the computer), run the script install.cmd \ install.sh
We wait until the script is finished, about 10-15 minutes.
7. After working in the script will reset the phone recovery, you need to wipe. WIPE MAKE SURE !!!
First start may take up to 40 minutes.
8. Enjoy!
Mail me if you try this ROM and tell me how its working!

I have sold off my infocus three for months back and recollecting the process is difficult. At the best I can suggest you to go the proper thread of the Russian forum 4pda.ru.
