Hello XDA! I'm pretty new here to the forum, and I need quite a bit of help here.
I own a Nokia Lumia 1020 clone(named L1020, running stock 2.3.6 rom on a SC6820 SoC, rooted but no custom recovery) and since I rooted it started loving Android. I was modding framewprk-res.apk, but I messed up and deleted the /system app, and now I got a pretty good soft-brick.
Luckily, I have backups of both modified and stock versions of the app on my SD Card.
Afterr Googling a bit I found that I can reinstall the app via adb or a custom recovery. (I can boot the phone into recovery)
Also, I've been unable to mount the system partition read-write when trying through adb under Win8.1 32bit (driver issue, maybe? ) neither detect the device under recovery mode
Question is, can I try to flash a compatible version of CWM through stock recovery, or maybe help me with this issue using adb, or help looking for a better solution? I really need that phone, as I won't be getting a new phone soon.
(May I add that I'm going to use the same laptop I rooted my phone for adb today afternoon. It runs Win7 32-bit and has the adb drivers correctly installed)
EDIT: used laptop today, installed the drivers and stuff, ran ADB but..
adb shell
$ su
su
[-] connect ui: timer expired
so, no superuser access... what did I do wrong?
please help!
Thank you very much!

Hey guys,
I have a bit of a head scratcher. I am currently trying to flash my new Sanei n10 tablet with CM10 and it is proving much more difficult than I first imagined.
My main problem seems to be that the device just does not want to boot in CWM. I have installed the latest version of CWM (found here) via the Terminal Emulator but it doesn't boot into CWM Recovery, but rather just boots normally. I have also tried using the hard keys to boot into it but all that does is boot me into the default android system recovery (3e) which is useless as it will only update from verified roms.
The device is rooted and I have ROM Manager installed. I have given Terminal Emulator superuser permissions... It just doesn't seem to want to boot into CWM Recovery. I have tried using both ROM Manager as well as NOVO7 Tools to boot into it but I get the same results (device just reboots normally)
I think that it might be something to do with the stock ICS 4.0.4 that came with the device.that is causing me so much hastle, but I was hoping someone out there might have experienced a similar issue or can offer some insight to where I am going wrong.
Thanks in advance!

1. Download the latest ClockWorkMod for Allwinner A10 tablets from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1802268
2. Put all three files in the ZIP inside the root of a MicroSD card and insert it in the tablet
3. Check from the Terminal app inside the tablet to see if the MicroSD card is mounted in /sdcard (just type "ls /sdcard").
4. If the "ls" command doesn't show anything (that's what happened in my case), then you must modify the "install-recovery.sh" file and replace all instances of "/sdcard" with "/mnt/extsd".
5. With the proper "install-recovery.sh" file, run the commands specified in the above xda link (in my case the card is in "/mnt/extsd" instead of "/mnt/sdcard" as the original example shows):
su
cd /mnt/extsd
sh install-recovery.sh
sh reboot-recovery.sh
6. The tablet will then reboot to CWM recovery. Then follow the regular steps to install Cyanogenmod (wipe plus install ROM + GApps + Compatibility). This time the Recovery menu won't care about the files being unsigned and will install them right away!
[Q] "Bricked" Allwinner A10 cmp741e Tablet, ADB works but lacks system/bin/sh
Hey guys, Please help me out. I am so close to getting the tablet to boot into android OS again but I made a silly mistake and I am not sure what to do now. I am a noob and have tried everything. Your help is greatly and desperately appreciated.
I have the Craig 7" tablet, model CMP741e, processor AllWinner A10.
What happened: I formatted my /system and rebooted, so /system was totally empty. My device will only boot to the splash screen and cannot get to the booting animation. Problem is, there is no hardware key combos to boot into recovery again.
Recovery was installed with this script:
Code:
cat /sdcard/recovery.img > /dev/block/nandg
One could boot into recovery with this script AFTER booting into android OS:
Code:
echo -n boot-recovery | busybox dd of=/dev/block/nandf count=1 conv=sync; sync; reboot
I cannot boot into recovery through ADB with the above script because the device does not have /system/bin/sh. Whenever I tried the above command to boot into recovery, it tells me that /system/bin/sh is not found.
I proceeded to adb push the entire /system directory from a nandroid backup into the tablet. HOWEVER, I made a silly mistake of pushing a bogus file named "bin" into the /system directory of the device. Now when I tried to push /system/bin/sh into the device, adb tells me that /system/bin is not a directory ( because there is a file named "bin" within the /system directory of the device).
I tried removing the "bin" file from the /system directory of the device but didn't work. "adb rm" did not work, and "adb shell rm" did not work either because adb tells me again that /system/bin/sh is not found.
For now I am looking for a solution to:
1) boot into recovery again
or
2) delete the "bin" file from the /system directory of the device, so I can push my /system/bin folder into the device.
or
3) anything to get my device to boot into android OS again
Any, any advice would be appreciated. Thank you guys.
why don't you try restoring the firmware by booting off a sdcard as described on the manufacturer page in engrish http://www.craigelectronics.com/site/pdetails.php?id=414

were you able to update the os at all? for reference my came out of the box with:
Android cersion 4.0.3
Kernel version 3.0.3+ [email protected] #11
Build number CMP741E_0626_v2.0
i'm gonna try flashing the update and see if its newer or worse
do not flash using stock from craigs website! It will make your unit hang on the Android screen. Looks like the OP figured out how to get his unit back with touch controls based on his post on the androidtablets forrum (search for cmp741e nandroid backup)
I have the same issue, but waiting for him to spell out the steps (seems like a few other people are also waiting on him to respond in that thread).
im in the same boat, i flash the stupid rom on the craig site...ive been able to get cwm on in various stages after flashing another slightly compatible rom using the same dumb phoenix tool but no support for touch so im still trying to figure how to get this **** to work right again and hopefully flash some cm9 or cm10 on it
heres my next try that i hope will work

have you found a cm that would be compatible with the craig tab? I have been trying to find one and stopped looking as of late

Re: [Q] "Bricked" Allwinner A10 cmp741e Tablet, ADB works but lacks system/bin/sh
I got a cm10 that boots but touch screen doesn't work so I didn't get past the first screen after the boot animation. I can't confirm if anything else didn't work but if I could find a compatibility zip for this device I would cross my fingers that it would work

Please help me get the recovery.img for Karbonn opium N7. my phone ran out of warranty.i rooted it and all was working fine till i tried to flash twrp on it....now phone works normal plus i have root but i cant use recovery.If someone with this phone can backup their recovery with flashify or a similar tool and post here then my phone can be fixed.i think ...........
Please help .....
My phone is currently rooted with kingoroot.
its running android 4.3 with xposed latest version which works flawlessly.
i have installed all related drivers....phone is detected in adb and fastboot.
Kernel version is 3.4.0
i also have the last update.zip from karbonn but dont know what to do with it as i tried extracting it but i dont see any recovery.img inside it.
Thank you
Dd.
I fixed It !!!!!!!! yay
I found a recovery image of karbonn n9 which has a similar board so i downloaded its recovery .img from the internet and ran fastboot boot recovery.img command from minimal adb and fastboot shell and the image booted fine but i was unable to to do anything with it as the screen resolution was diffrent.then i flashed it as it was at least booting to recovery. i booted into phone and opened settings then about phone then system updates and i placed the update.zip i downloaded onto my sd card then used that to restore the phone to stock.i had tried this before without a working recovery and it failed.this time it worked as i had a semi functional recovery.after the phone asked me to reboot it went into the recovery mode and ran openrecovery script and i saw the zip getting flashed.the phone had original recovery after it booted again :laugh: ......
I have backed up the recovery this time.
lesson learned lol .time to root again and use my phone.
Thanks all...:laugh::laugh:
Hi all,
I'm new here and was wondering if I could get some help.
I recently purchased an Oukitel C15 Pro, which I am now trying to root but without any success.
From my own research, there are 2 versions of the Oukitel C15 Pro, one that is 2 gb ram and another one which is 3gb ram. Mine is the updated version 3gb with V14 build number.
Here is some info:
Build number - OUKITEL_C15 Pro_V14.0_20191121
Baseband - E557_61_P0_LWTG_V0.3.0_S191028
OS - Android 9.0
Processor - MT6761V/WBB - ARMv7 Processor rev 4, 4 cores at 2ghz arm cortex a53
So far I have managed to find the stock rom file and twrp recovery file for Oukitel C15 Pro.
I seem to be having issues with booting into recovery. I have literally tried everything.
I've tried flashing it via adb, trying to boot from adb into recovery etc. I've also tried using the SP flash tool. It does the flashing perfectly fine without any errors as I have already unlocked the bootloader and debugging is on, but the phone just seems to always load into its stock recovery and not twrp.
I've also tried patching the boot file with majisk, again no errors whatsoever, however when trying to boot, it boots into the normal system without any changes being made. I have all drivers installed etc and I honestly have no idea what I'm doing wrong.
I know that on some phones you have to boot directly into recovery after flashing otherwise the stock recovery will overwrite the twrp but again no luck, it just boots into the stock file.
I have also tried booting it via adb directly into recovery once flashed but no luck, normal recovery loads. When I try to do adb sideload I get error E 21 verification failed.
Does anybody have any advice on what I need to do to root my device? Maybe the files I have downloaded are wrong? I have no idea. I'd literally appreciate any help/links etc.
Thank you
You are not alone

Disable dm-verity/AVB if it's enabled, otherwise you wont have any luck flashing a Custom Recovery, a Custom ROM or patched boot
Code:
adb devices
adb disable dm-verity
adb reboot
Help to root
Pls how did u unlock bootloader

How to use magisk to twrp from 2.3.5 gingerbread without a computer?
@Didgeridoohan
Do you think its possible to flash twrp from a terminal emulator? Or what are my options?
If you really can't get a hold of a computer you might be lucky with an app like Franco Kernel Manager, Flashify, etc. Problem is that most apps likely won't support or be compatible with that ancient version of Android or whatever root you currently have installed. And, you're also risking bricking your device if you don't have access to a computer...
I really think your best bet is to somehow get access to a computer. Friend/school/work/something...
If you can't install stuff on that borrowed computer you could create a bootable USB with a Linux distro and run everything from there. Linux Mint is quite user friendly, they've got good documentation on how to get things running with a Live Boot USB, and it's not too hard to get adb & fastboot up and running.
Ill try and get a hold of a computer because nothing seems to work on 2.3.5
@Didgeridoohan
I had rooted using framaroot but after a factory reset it wont install supersu or superuser to my app drawer, can you give me a suggestion? Btw im using my xbox one to type this.
@chris1892006
don't waste your time with this: Magisk works only on Android 5.0 and above.

Is it so hard to read posts carefully?
I found this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YAKGRblIuw
dd Install Method (Requires Root):
Download the latest image file (.img) from the download link above. Place it in the root of your /sdcard folder and rename it to twrp.img. Run the following commands via adb shell or a terminal emulator app:
su
dd if=/sdcard/twrp.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p9
What part of the command do i change for a yp-g70 venturi? Also can i extract my twrp 2.8.0.0.zip and get the .img out of it or can i flash the .zip?
This what i used to flash cwm/ entropys daily driver kernel
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445840
su
dd if=/sdcard/zImage of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p11
Well i got cwm installed! Now i just need to flash twrp and then a rom

Notice, that for Lollipop and up to get it running smoothly, you need a device with minimum 2GB RAM and at least 2GHz dual core processor - what since Android 4.4+ must be a ARMv7 one.

Thanks i had 4.4.4 up and running but tried flashing 5.1.1 lollipop on cwm and it corrupted the bootloader. Now i cant get into recovery because twrp wouldnt flash over cwm, i tried to flash twrp 2.8.0.0 & it succeeded yet didnt work after a reboot, why? I read the op but i still cant figure out why it didnt work after a reboot? Still remained cwm.

How do i flash twrp over cwm?
Hey... Look at that, you had some progress. Nice.
I've never used CWM, so I wouldn't know.... Sorry.
@chris1892006
Have you backed up stock recovery IMG through e.g. Flashify app before installing a custom recovery by means of CWM ? Do remember that restoring a backup will essentially wipe any changes made after that backup.
If so then
1. you can restore or flash stock recovery IMG through Fastboot to get CWM out of your system.
2. you can install through TWRP any custom recovery IMG of your choice.

thanks only problem is they only make a .zip for twrp for my device... I don't know how to flash it.
That's a really old android version, I'm not sure if it's possible. If you don't have access to a PC, try to ask a friend if they could do it for you, just to be safe. Trying to modify stuff within android, especially on such an old version, with probably unsupported software could result in a bricked device.
Thanks but I finally got TWRP and Lollipop 5.1.1 installed it took an ADB Sideload from a PC to sideload the twrp.zip file for my device and now I'm up and running and very happy to say the very least. Sure I bricked it 3 times in the process but was always able to recover using ODIN and having the proper files on hand.
Now im having an issue with xda on the device where the xda app wont let me sign in and the browser will sign me in but go right back to the sign in page again, idk how to fix it?
I install a dalvik cache wiper with root required and it corrupted the recovery again. So I figured out the exact steps to get this device working perfectly again. Firstly the twrp folder on the external sd card has to be renamed TWRP because it has extra strange characters after the TWRP. Now we know how to restore our backup, we can start by ODIN back to stock, then Framaroot v1.4.1 root the device then download entropys daily driver kernel cwm, the flash it via terminal emulator, reboot, then you have to install meticulous carbon 4.4.4 to fix the partitions and update the cwm to adb sideload the twrp. So you can then flash Meticulus Carbon 5.1.1 and both updates and 5.1.1 pico gapps. Good to go. Meticulus made the kernel overclock to 1.7ghz and it runs pretty darn good honestly. I modded the build.prop vm dalvik heap limit to 384m from 128m to get some extra performance out of it.
