I have a few questions on some of these steps:
On the checksum part below, it says to redownload the file if the checksum does not match, does that mean to re push the misc.img and run step three again.
Step 3
This step will gain temp root and flash the custom misc.img. Run:
adb shell
Now the shell should display "$".
Run:
/data/local/psneuter
You will now be kicked out of adb, and adb will restart as root. Let’s confirm the md5 of misc.img:
adb shell
At this point, the shell should display "#".
Run:
/data/local/busybox md5sum /data/local/misc.img
Output should be "c88dd947eb3b36eec90503a3525ae0de." If it’s anything else, re-download the file and try again.
On step 4 below how do I put the file on the phone? Can I just use windows and copy the file to the sd card?
Step 4
Here you will rename the downgrade RUU as PG05IMG.zip and place it on your SD card. Then, run the following command:
Ok in step 3 below, it says if the checksum does not match to delete and re-download. How do I delete the file? Is there a command to do this? I assume re-downloading refers to pushing the file again correct?
Step 6
Please pay attention – this is very important. This step involves a small chance of bricking if you mess up.
To push the eng bootloader:
adb push hbooteng.nb0 /data/local/
adb shell
/data/local/busybox md5sum /data/local/hbooteng.nb0
If the output does not match "6991368ee2deaf182048a3ed9d3c0fcb" exactly, stop, delete it, and re-download it. Otherwise, continue.
to delete in adb you need to use the command "adb shell" and the command in there is "rm /path/to/file" no quotes. This is where being a Linux user helped me out lol. As for moving the file, yes. Move it to SD any way at all that you'd like.

Is it "adb shell" one one line and then "rm /path/to/file" on next line or is it all one line like this "adb shell rm /path to file""

It's all on one line. FYI you only have to adb shell, once. In the tutorial for the root, he has you doing 'adb shell reboot bootloader'. However, you are already in adb shell, at that point. All you need to type is 'reboot bootloader'.

English instructions
Well, with some help from Google Translate and some creative interpretations, I managed to do this and thought I'd provide some English instructions for others (with some added comments)

1. Windows -- the Arrows TAB USB driver Download.
2. Easy rooting toolkit (ERT) for Arrows Tab F-01D (ver 1.0) Download
3. goroh_kun's lsm_disabler.ko Download

4. A su binary, such as the one found in DooMLoRD_v3_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su.zip
5. Android SDK platform tools. adb(.exe) (and in Windows, specifically: AdbWinApi.dll, AdbWinUsbApi.dll)
Preparation
1. Unzip ert4F01D.zip, and in the subdirectory 'files' place:
* adb.exe (Windows only, from step 4 above)
* AdbWinApi.dll (Windows only, from step 4 above)
* AdbWinUsbApi.dll (Windows only, from step 4 above)
* lsm_disabler.ko (from step 3 above)
* su (from step 5 above)
2. Before connecting the USB, in Settings -> Applications -> Development:
* Check (tick) USB debugging ("Debug mode when USB is connected")
* Check (tick) Stay awake ("Screen will never sleep while charging")
3. Set up the USB drivers and Android Development stuff if you haven't already. I don't use Windows so can't help with this.
The Dirty Work
At this stage, you can run the batch file. Since I don't use Windows, I did the steps by hand, so you'll have to correlate your actions appropriately (I can't read Japanese either, so your guess is as good as mine ).
1. On your PC:
adb shell "mv /data/local/calib.dat /data/local/calib.dat_"
adb shell "ln -s /data/local.prop /data/local/calib.dat"
2. On the tablet, go into Google Maps, touch the GPS icon ("locate me" icon) on the top right hand corner, and then touch the BACK key to exit.
3. On your PC:
adb shell "echo ro.kernel.qemu=1 > /data/local.prop"
adb shell "rm /data/local/calib.dat"
adb shell "mv /data/local/calib.dat_ /data/local/calib.dat"
adb reboot
5. Once the device has fully rebooted, on your PC:
adb shell "mkdir /data/local/lib"
adb push files\lsm_disabler.ko /data/local/lib/
adb shell "insmod /data/local/lib/lsm_disabler.ko"
adb shell "mkdir /data/local/bin"
adb shell "echo '#!/system/bin/sh' > /data/local/bin/autoexec.sh"
adb shell "echo '/system/xbin/soff' >> /data/local/bin/autoexec.sh"
adb shell "chmod 755 /data/local/bin/autoexec.sh"
adb shell "mount -o rw,remount /system /system"
adb shell "ln -s /data/local/bin/autoexec.sh /system/etc/install-recovery.sh"
adb push files\su /system/xbin/
adb shell "chown root.root /system/xbin/su"
adb shell "chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su"
adb shell "echo insmod /data/local/lib/lsm_disabler.ko > /system/xbin/soff"
adb shell "chmod 755 /system/xbin/soff"
adb shell "mount -o ro,remount /system /system"
adb shell "echo > /data/local.prop"
6. I think at this point I was just meant to exit the lock screen.
7. adb reboot
8. Congratulations. You're now rooted. Go to the Play Store and download "Superuser" (by ChainsDD) and "BusyBox" (by Stericson). If you decide to buy BusyBox Pro, do not check the "symlinks" option in version 8.0, otherwise it's game over (no wifi, no adb shell, no root, no remount). It's a pain, but not impossible to repair this situation, see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26964465.

Thank you for this wonderful post! A few questions:
1.) I use the F-01D but I don't live in Japan. One of the gripes I've been having about this tablet is that there doesn't seem to be anyway for me to get firmware updates unless I go there. Once rooted am I able to use Market Enabler to fake a carrier and update my tablet?
2.) This is slightly off on a tangent but since I can't find much English material about this tablet anway I might as well ask here. Another one of my gripes about the tablet is it doesn't seem to handle video very well. even 720p video doesn't play smoothly on it. On most of the software I download, it seems hardware acceleration is not enabled? Is this a hardware issue, or is it blocked by the software. And if the latter would rooting the tablet help resolve this issue; or is there any other solution? From what I've read the OMAP processor in this thing should easily be able to handle 1080p video right?
Many thanks! :good:

Just wanted to say thank you again. The rooting worked perfectly, though it took me a while to manually type in all the commands. For people who want to try this, you do need to install busybox before any other programs such as rootchecker will properly verify that your device is actually rooted.
And just for anyone wondering - rooting and using MarketEnabler has NOT been able to resolve the issue of not being able to update the software overseas...
Hey, sorry for the late reply, busy times :>
Glad the post helped you! I know I was super amped to finally get rood and get rid of all the bloatware I couldn't even understand. Things have definitely been a lot smoother since then (but far from perfect, also dying for an ICS upgrade). As for your questions:

From playing around, the requirements seem to imply that you *have to* upgrade via cellular data from a Docomo SIM card, and it can't be done via roaming, so yeah, it seems like you have to physically go to Japan to upgrade Your market enabler idea was a good one, but since you tried that (I'm assuming using the Docomo info), I guess the upgrade app is using a different source to check where you're at. Ultimately we need to somehow get hold of an update.zip (or other file) that can be run through the Recovery system (which does exist!).
2.) This is slightly off on a tangent but since I can't find much English material about this tablet anway I might as well ask here.

Haven't tried 1080p, but after some tinkering I did get 720p playing. I use MX Player, and although they said it would download needed hardware decoders automatically, it didn't, and things improved a lot after I downloaded the MX Player ARMv7 codec. Video plays great, but to get sound, I had to run the sound through the software decoder (just tap the music note icon, and choose "Track #1 (S/W decoder)".
On the other hand, I found the hardware decoding often gets stuck (relaunching MX player just gives you a waiting indicator forever)... and the only way to fix it is a reboot. Since this happens quite often, it's incredibly annoying, and I'm hoping an upgrade will fix it. Let me know if this doesn't happen to you. Also have some very intermittent wifi issues, some things work fine (speedtest, etc) but apps like streaming radio, some work fine (spotify) and others don't work at all (di radio). Some things work fine for a while after a reboot.

Incidentally, here's what happens if I try update via recovery (with no update files). Maybe it will help someone. Googling most of the stuff came up with nothing. The ** in the middle somewhere is stuff I couldn't read, guess I should go back and do it again but this is from quite a while ago.

Interesting situation...
First off...Kinslayer81, thanks for posting this. I found the original in Japanese, and was not eager to try to translate it. Thanks for putting in the work.
For everyone (especially if you got this to work) - when I went through the step, I keep getting a "permissions denied" message. Whether it's the ERT4F01D batch file, or typing the commands in... I get "permissions denied".
Did you guys encounter this?
Glad it helped you On which step are you getting the error? Any strange output on any of the preceding steps?
Every step is important, to be done in the exact same order, e.g. loading google maps and pressing the 'my location' icon, etc.

Permission denied
Oh I know... I'm not new to the game. I've stalked these boards for a while now... This is my first tablet though.
I've tried running both the ERT4F01D batch... and the manual input.
I get it from the batch file, as soon as I tell it to "RUN"... "Permissions Denied"
From manual input - LINE 2: adb shell "ln -s /data/local.prop /data/local/calib.dat" = "Permissions Denied"
Like there's some additional admin privilege I don't have. Hmmmmm....
And here's an additional kicker... the tablet auto-reboots each and every time. I've tried it a number of times (started over from the top), same result each time.

I must admit, I don't have any great ideas.
So you can move the file in the first step no problem, and just the attempt to symlink gives you the error?
What is the output of "adb shell ls -la /data/local/".
When does the auto reboot occur?

Do you mind me asking, how did you set your file system to read-write? I have the same error as you were seeing but it's not allowing me to remount as read-write...
Can you confirm what command you used please?
thanks
Sorry again for late reply
Dakedo_Baby, I've looked at your stuff a few times and it's not obvious to me where things are going wrong. I again need some more info to try get a better idea of what's going on:
1) Before the first reboot, let me know the output of: adb shell "cat /data/local.prop"
2) After the reboot, let me know the output of: adb shell id
As for the file systems, well, /data should be already mounted rw, and /system should be mounted ro until you remount it. You can see how each is mounted with just "adb mount".

The command to remount the /system partition as read-write is: adb shell "mount -o rw,remount /system /system"
Of course, you should only be executing that step as part of the given sequence and in the correct order. You won't be able to execute the command until after your first reboot in the instructions, after which adb should still be running as root.
Any good Custom ICS roms you guys recommend after rooting the Arrows Tab?
ICS..Hurray!!!
Just found this out in Fujitsu site:
http://spf.fmworld.net/fujitsu/c/update/nttdocomo/f-01d/update1/top/index.html
There is a 4.0.3 download available. Click the 3rd Button (Green) downloads the zip package.
The 2nd link has howto from PC.
Still not sure if this will work, but trying out.
Also may lose root..and whatever else..So keeping my fingers crossed.
Google translation link
http://translate.google.com/transla...update/nttdocomo/f-01d/update1/top/index.html
Will post how it goes.
I made a new thread for this, since it's a different topic and you'll lose root too
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32200671
insmod lsm-disabler.so to remount /system rw
Back to the original topic... what I maybe didn't notice before is that the stock kernel blocks even root users from remounting /system as rw. So in case you ever need rw access to /system again, obviously you'll first have to be root, and afterwards you'll need to "insmod lsm-disabler.so" (as per the original instructions) before you can "busybox mount -o remount,rw /system" (or run any root app that remounts the system partition).

I've imported the SH-06D from Japan and the phone is running great, however I'd like to remove some system apps etc to help speed up the phone (it's still on 2.3.5) and obviously tweak it as well.
I know there is an existing thread on the SH-01D (predecessor to the SH-06D) but I'm wondering if anyone has successfully rooted the SH-06D and if so, is there an (easy) process to do this?
Another reason I want to root, is to install the UI from the upcoming Evangelion Nerv edition of the SH-06D that is due to be released in a few days.
ICS for the SH-06D is just around the corner (due to be released in July) but I'd realy appreciate any help, assistance or tips in rooting the phone as it is now.
Cheers! :fingers-crossed:
Anyone?
:-(
here is a link to root the sh-06d :

THANK YOU!
Have you tried this method and does it work? Can you assist me in following those directions?
Cheers

OK, I've run through all the steps but..

Thanks mate!!! :highfive:
I want to know untill now has SH-06D been rooted?
I wish someone could dump ROM or launcher from SH-06 NERV version:fingers-crossed:
I'm working on the translation for root on Sharp Aquos SH-06D.
Please give me one or two more days!
That is highly impossible, having full root in J Phone are hard enough. Unlocking the bootloader is a wet dream for almost everyone who likes J phone

I'm trying to hard reset my SH-06D, but I can't do it via settings-privacy. I can select to wipe, but nothing happens.
Any suggestions?
I got the Nerv edition
Hey man, how did the rooting go? I ordered the Nerv edition of this phone, and I want to root it (mainly to pair my sixaxis controller for psx emulation) but wanted to consult with you first as a precaution.
Here is the a rough translation of the root guide found here:
http://itsuki.ddo.jp/gadget/index.php?SH-06D
Big thanks to testnumero for the help!
Please don't ask me directly for help. I don't own this phone.
A quick look at root
• With root you can freeze preinstalled bloatware and backup application settings and game save data.
• 3D content from /system can be played on other devices and 3DTVs.
Unresponsive apps can be frozen which will help the device run smoother and have a longer battery life.
Applications which are frozen disappear from your drawer making the device look cleaner and keeping your mind at ease.
• The process is similar to the one used for SH-01D.
• If an update patch is released or the Android 4.0 summer update is released then this guide will no longer be of help.
(Make sure your device is the following: Android Ver. 2.3.5 Build No. 01.00.03)
• If your device becomes a paperweight I won’t be held responsible.
• Follow this guide at your own risk.
↑
Preparations – Before you begin
• Install Android SDK and SHARP ADB USB drivers and make to use ADB.
• 「Settings」→「Applications」→「Development」→「USB Debugging」 checked.
• SH-06D and micro USB cable to connect to your PC
↑
Required Files
• Download "shdisphook" from the following link and extract.
http://goo.gl/Bs6Iq
• Download shsdgetroot-omap4.zip from the following link and extract.
http://www1.axfc.net/uploader/File/so/78144
• Download shbootgetroot-su.lzh from the following link and extract.
http://www.mediafire.com/?6i0n32jlwbxe8cp
• Keep all extracted files in the same folder.
↑
Creating files
• Create a file named "shdisphook.bat" in the folder with the extracted files.
Copy and paste the following and save.
adb push onload.sh /data/local/
adb push libsdservice_jni.so /data/local/
adb push shdisphook /data/local/
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/onload.sh
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/shdisphook
adb reboot
adb wait-for-device shell /data/local/shdisphook
pause
• Create a file named "oncmd.sh" and put the following in the description.
(Save the line break as LF)
chmod 777 /cache
chmod 666 /cache/recovery
• Replace the contents of the file "installfile.cmd" with the following and save.
adb shell /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4 -c "/system/bin/mount -o rw,remount -t rootfs rootfs /"
adb shell /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4 -c "/system/bin/chmod 777 /sbin"
adb push su /sbin
adb push busybox /sbin
adb shell /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4 -c "/system/bin/chown 0.0 /sbin/su"
adb shell /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4 -c "/system/bin/chown 0.0 /sbin/busybox"
adb shell /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4 -c "/system/bin/chmod 6755 /sbin/su"
adb shell /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4 -c "/system/bin/chmod 755 /sbin/busybox"
adb shell /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4 -c "/sbin/busybox --install -s /sbin"
adb shell /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4 -c "/system/bin/chmod 755 /sbin"
adb shell /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4 -c "/system/bin/mount -o ro,remount -t rootfs rootfs /"
adb push Superuser.apk /data/local/
adb shell /system/bin/pm install -t -f -r /data/local/Superuser.apk
adb shell /system/bin/rm /data/local/Superuser.apk
exit /b
↑
Step 1
• Open command prompt to the folder with the extracted files and navigate to "shdisphook".
Execute "shdisphook.bat". (You can also just double click on the .bat file)
• The device will reboot so just wait for the [Press any key to continue] message to appear.
If more than a few minutes have passed and nothing has appeared then, force close and execute "shdisphook.bat" again.
(When you fail your PC will reboot or your SH-06D WiFi will start. There is a high rate of success when you immediately unlock the lock screen for your device when it goes to sleep.)
↑
Step 2
• Open command prompt and send oncmd.sh to SH-06D to change permissions
adb push oncmd.sh /data/local/oncmd.sh
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/oncmd.sh
• 「Settings」→「microSD and device storage」→「Unmount microSD」 This will execute the file "oncmd.sh" , which was sent to the device earlier.
(Cancel the message for 「Unmount microSD」)
• Enter the following commands.
adb shell mv /cache/recovery /cache/recovery_
adb shell ln -s /dev/shsd /cache/recovery
• Execute the following adb shell ls -l /cache and if you see the following message you have succeed.
drwxrwx--- root root 2011-11-11 03:39 lost+found
drw-rw-rw- system cache 2012-01-24 10:48 recovery_
lrwxrwxrwx shell shell 2012-03-02 13:24 recovery -> /dev/shsd
• Next execute adb shell ls -l /dev/shsd you should get the following message if you were successful.
crw-rw-rw- system cache 231, 0 2012-04-23 02:01 shsd
↑
Step 3
• Execute adb push shsdgetroot-omap4 /data/local
• Execute adb shell /system/bin/chmod 755 /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4
• Execute adb shell /data/local/shsdgetroot-omap4 -v -m -u
• The “# “mark will appear there will be no response. Close command prompt for now.
• Execute installfile.cmd
• Check if you have root with the following adb shell→su
↑
After you reboot
• After you reboot you will lose root rights so execute shdisphook.bat→Cancel Unmount microSD →execute installfile.cmd and you should have root again.
The reason why you cannot do a clean wipe or nothing happen is because the recovery section has been move out into another location, causing it to not loading the recovery correctly.
Check with SH-01d part, I have asked similar question there and I revert the recovery in order to wipe the phone..
You need to rearrange the following section like on the sh-01d when you hit this part:
(Following is Original command that you relocated the recovery for root)
adb shell mv /cache/recovery /cache/recovery_
adb shell ln -s /dev/shsd /cache/recovery
And replace with the revert command found on sh-01d thread. You will need to redo all the steps from step 1 to step 2 and STOP AFTER YOU REVERT the RECOVERY.
You should be able to do a full wipe with no issue then. DO NOT POWER DOWN or RESET!!! You will have to REDO it again as it REQUIRES SHDSIHOOK to input shell command.
Hope it helps
waiting！！！！！！！！！！
I just got a cute chinese phone, called Bluebo B3000.
(The manufacturer is www bluebo net)
the device has MTK6575
Android 4.0.4, Kernel 3.0.13
no GPS,
RAM: 256MB
ROM: 512MB
Resolution: 320 x 480 Pixels
SIM slots: 2
SD card
quadband GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz
I only need root.
Which flash tool is good for this device?
There are russian forums discussing this device, e.g..forum china-iphone ru , viewtopic.php?f=46&t=22437
but I dont understand what they say.
Thanks!
yay
I posted how to root this phone in the Russian Forum, (in Russian and English), here are the steps to follow:
I have the same phone (BlueBo B3000 -MTK6575)
English:
We have to have our mobile perfectly recognized by the computer as "ADB Device", with the controller properly installed, and Debug Mode Enable (connected to the PC with the USB cable).
Download (htt p://ww w.4shar ed.com/zip/fyH9xy DF/Roo tTianji.ht m l) (remove spaces), you need to work in command mode with ADB.
Unzip in "C :/" folder, it will be now "C :/ RootTianji /".
Open a command window (cmd.exe). Then we put (without the quotes) cd.. "until we get "C:>" then put "cd RootTianji" and then just put "adb".
Best explained
1 -. cmd.exe
2 -. cd ..
3 -. cd .. (again)
4 -. Stop when you get "C:>" prompt
5 -. RootTianji cd
6 -. adb
Now we have to follow these steps to the letter.
Type and hit enter: adb push su /data/local/tmp/su
Type and hit enter: adb push Superuser.apk /data/local/tmp/Superuser.apk
Type and hit enter: adb restore fakebackup.ab (Do not do anything on the phone yet)
Type and hit enter: adb shell "while ! ln -s /data/local.prop /data/data/com.android.settings/a/file99; do :; done" (Now in the command window appear few rows error and that means the exploit is working and now is when you press on the phone and within seconds Restore on mobile as a message that the restoration is completed. If a password is asked do not to write anything, just continue)
Type and hit enter: adb reboot (The phone now reboots itself. Do not do anything until it completely reboot. Might take a little and flashes).
Type and hit enter: adb shell
Now the phone is in root mode and the # prompt appears.
Type and hit enter: mount -o remount,rw -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /system
Type and hit enter: cat /data/local/tmp/su > /system/bin/su
Type and hit enter: chmod 06755 /system/bin/su
Type and hit enter: ln -s /system/bin/su /system/xbin/su
Type and hit enter: cat /data/local/tmp/Superuser.apk > /system/app/Superuser.apk
Type and hit enter: chmod 0644 /system/app/Superuser.apk
Type and hit enter: rm /data/local.prop
Type and hit enter: exit
Type and hit enter: adb shell "sync; sync; sync;"
Type and hit enter: adb reboot
Your mobile is now root.
If you could try to do all steps from the beginning and from step 9 and 10 run these commands: chown 0.0 / system / bin / su
If the process gets "stuck" in the row of errors (never ends), close and disconnect everything and connect the phone again seeing that everything necessary is in good condition (drivers, cables, files), then proceed to retry processes from the beginnin. (cmd.exe).
If you dont understand something just ask.
This guide was originally made for Tinji Mobile N9000 i9220, but when I realized it was the same processor as mine (B3000 - MT6575), I decided to try it, and for my surprise, it worked!
Please be careful and use this information at your own risk
Sorry if I wrote something bad or strange. Bye
Thanks!! I will try.
Hooray! I've got root!
thanks!
unlucky for me I have messed some things around and mis-spelled the "ln -s" command,
but eventually I managed to install all the drivers required, and to load a ROM with root.
Thanks a lot!
BlueBo unlock

i think the problem might be your SIM card, this mobile come as unlocked as default.
Getting stuck

Device Not Recognized
When I connect my Bluebo B3000 to the computer even with USB debugging on it doesn't recognize it. I have everything installed to root this phone, and I just need to figure out how to fix this. I'm using Windows 7 x64.
Is there any drivers for this phone? I can't find any. It might be in Chinese or Russian, I don't know. I also tried to find drivers for Tinji Mobile N9000 i9220 since gozalox says that it has the same processor as this one, but the search results yielded with roms; they don't look legitimate so I don't want to bother.
Thank you for reading.
EDIT:
After installing MTK6575 device I finally was able to get in my phone, but I still get stuck at the "while" part
I followed everything as instructed, and yes I checked if the spelling was correct by pasting the instructions in the notepad.
After entering the adb shell "while ! ln -s /data/local.prop /data/data/com.android.settings/a/file99; do :; done" I get link failed File exists. I did click restore my data quickly and kept waiting. I did see the com.android.settings under the page in the phone. I don't understand the password request part since the phone asks me for the encryption password on the page in which I'm sure I don't have. I was stuck on the data restore until the streams of "link failed File exists" disappeared so I proceeded to reboot, but when I type adb shell it was still $ I've kept trying to do this over and over again from step 1 (not closing the cmd prompt though, I wouldn't want to type them over and over) but it still doesn't work. My last resort would be typing everything from scratch and hope for the best.
Please help. Thank you!
EDIT 2:
I finally rooted my phone. For those people who need help, go here ht tp://fo rum. china-iphon e.ru/viewt opic.p hp?f=31&t =17863 (remove spaces) and click MTK Droid Root & Tools v2.3.7 The program is in English, so no worries about that. I did it twice for mine and it worked~ Install the Android Terminal app to check if you're rooted. Just type su in a window and if it has the hash sign "#" then you're rooted. Good luck!
Ignore, as I'm still looking for the delete button. Noob, noob, noob...
Messed it Up with mtkdroid Tools
I Have used the Mtk droid Tool, clicked on root button, and confirmed on the onscreen button.
after this the program continues to recognize my device but now the "ROOT" button disapears, and above was write "root shell quemu mode".
I think the phone was rooted, but I installed some root required apks and they said that i have not the root permisions, including the Terminal emulator, this said "permission denied" when prompt "su" command.
After I requested a normal reboot via the MtkdroidTools and the device dont boot, it stays freezed at Android logo.
I tried the Recovery mode, but dont worked too...
