Hey guys, so I downloaded cm9 and tried to install it on my phone.
I got it from this link and also followed the video tutorial there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1500234
I had rooted my phone and had CWM recovery v5.0.2.6
Now when I try to reboot, there is just an blue screen.
I did exactly like in the video, I tried 2 times. Still it didn`t work. Please help. Could someone provide any step by step instructions other than the video?
Thanks.
I think you needed to use with CWM 5+
Try to get back into CWM and root your old ROM.
I am very bad at this... So I dont really know how to do that... could you provide any steps or an tutorial?
Edit:well I tried to format sd card and system but nothing. Could someone provide a link to gingerbread 2.3.5 and a way Icould put it on my phone? Also, could I do anything with samsung kies?

NO NO. Don't use kies. Kies sucks a lot. Search the developer forum for "clockworkmod 5" flash it normally (I suppose you already know how-to since you have CWM4) after getting CWM5, flash ICS/CM9 Normally. no need to flash GB
Here is cwm 5

Glad we could help, be carefull next time. Always try to use newest software.
Ughh I forgot to root my phone right after flashing. So I installed CWM before rooting.. how do I root now? And also I think it is still not working. The phone has been blue for about 2 minutes now. I followed the video exactly like it was.
EDIT: damn... so after getting the blue screen again I thought of going back to normal ver and maybe some other custom ROM... but guess what.... It doesnt work anymore... I did just like before.Went into download, used ODIN to download 2.3.5 french ver to my phone, odin says PASS. But last time It had booted correctly by 4:40 or so. This time like 10 minutes have passed and still rebooting. What to do now?
EDIT2: Am I allowed to make a new thread since the problem is not with cm9 anymore?
here, check this out:

download it and flash it through stock recovery
i dont think you need to root it before flashing this (i didnt)
i just flashed this over the stock rom (non rooted) and then flashed cm7.2
i too had such problems but dont worry flash some stock rom with odin then it wont boot so remove your battery and place it again.now go to stock recovery wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition then reboot.then use cwm 5 to flash cm 9.

Hey, this is exactly like in the video, I tried that. But this time I am going to first use odin to put XWKS2 2.3.5 on my phone, and then root using SuperOneClick (Last time I used udp1 or something like that) and then try again.

Hi bro, you need to switch base to China ROM (S125, S129, S135) before flashing Vibe ROM if you are on ROW ROM. Directly flash Vibe ROM will cause you end up in a bootloop and possibly corruption of /nvram.
Nevermind, to flash via SP Flash Tool, you will need to press the red button on the bottom top right side and connect the USB cable to begin flashing process.
And by flashing Vibe ROM after repartitioning will cause the partition restore to default too. (2.5GB /data, 1GB /media)
Reply this post if you need assistance.

The one in satanduck thread: P780_S135_130917_rooted_twrp_gapps.7z is a China based S135 ROM and flashable via SP Flash Tool ROM. After you flash it then you can flash Vibe ROM. Remember do a wipe after flashing the Vibe ROM.

Just install the zip, because you are on chinese ROM base already.
I was flashing Custom ROM on my "Qmobile Noir A900" and ended up corrupting both ROM and recovery.
And my device is now stuck at a boot loop. Recovery mode is just a white screen and can't seem to go into bootloader mode either.
My Question is.. Is my device totally hard bricked or there's still some hope left?
I am new here and not sure if this is the right section. Sorry

Solved these issues too.
First did a cache wipe and factory reset. It solved the storage problem but gave me invalid IMEI notification.
Then did a backup restore from default recovery. (I had made a backup prior to all this )
Solved everything.
Thanks a lot man. You saved the day!

Hey,
Though this thread is old and dead now, but i must thank tunglethanh90 for providing the stock Rom (spflash version) of A900. I was having problem with my A900 and found stock rom on needrom site, flashed it and my cell went in to bootloop. I didn't have SPFlash or MTK backup only CWM backup which was no good. I used this ROM provided by tunglethanh90 and i was successful in making my set alive again. Afterwards, i got the problem of invalid IMEI. For that i installed CWM recovery and restored my cwm stock rom backup that i took and saved ealier. All good now but making my set alive again is due to tunglethanh90. Thank You Sir .... So heads up for any guy having QMobile A900 Rom issue, this is what u need to download, dont dl from needrom as its no go.
Regards.
Hope you enjoy.

Dear Stympy,
I tried flashing both the versions (S226 and S228) given in your post. However, neither worked. It always failed in the recovery. Then I tried to flash an OTA S220 which worked (as per my last post). Later there were three official updates shown up in my phone, S226, S227 and S228 (of course, one by one). I just updated them and now I am on S228.
Thanks a lot for all the help!
I will bother you if we get a 5.0 for P780 (8GB).
Till then, :good:

Dear Stympy,
My latest ROM S228 is working well.
However, I am facing a problem in accessing my phone memory. I am attaching snapshot of my storage. When I connect it to laptop, it just shows a Lenovo_Suite which installs a program to share my mobiles capabilities on laptop. My phone memory is not visible from laptop.
What is this emulated folder about? It seems to be a copy of my SD card..but not full. Where is this folder located? Is it eating from my phone memory? Can I delete it?
Please advice!
Thanks!

Hi. Yes you cannot acces the internal memory on the row firmware. I did notice this problem, but was no problem for me because i have sd card. I recomend that you buy one minimum 16 gb class 10.
Do not erase the emulated folder. Seems that system uses that folder.

Thanks! I put the preloader.bin from your link into the S228 directory and removed the "preloader_pradai_row.bin". I still get the message "Unrecognized ROM detected". I guess I have some screwed up ROM, the only ROM I could ever write over it was some older MIUI version (didn't try that many different ROM's though). If you want to have a closer look at my ROM, I can pm you a dl link - it probably would be a waste of time though.
Edit: my phone was made before 03.2014, I am quite certain.
Edit2: Not so certain anymore, because of that ROM date..

Hi. Here is the link for latest TWRP for ROW edition.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3391260&d=1436077810
After download go to recovery 2.7.1.1 and install from there. DO NOT WIPE.
To flash ROW firmware watch carefuly for the one with ROW mark. Do not flash the ones with CN mark.
Flashing is relatively simple.
1. Download your desired firmware.
2. Copy that zip file on your sd card
3. Reboot in recovery or download one reboot to recovery app from google market and give root rights. That kind of app is mutch better for rebooting directly in recovery.
4. In TWRP go to backup. NOT OPTIONAL. And do a full backup.
5. Now after full backup go to wipe and swipe to wipe.
6. After wipe go to install.
7. Install your firmware.
8 Reboot and wait to firmware to install. This will take longer then usual. Do not be scared.
9. Good Luck.
