Hello to all.
I bought recently a Tengda T94 (also being referred to as Dapeng T94).It has MTK6589 chip.
Me,the smartass,wanted to change the DPI setting of the smartphone,because Real Racing 3 lagged a little bit and thought changing it might fix the framerate.I changed it from 320 dpi to 221 with LCD modder and reboot.Then the surprise struck me,when it didnt start,it just stood on the logo and kept replaying it.I have tried with ADB commands - some works,some not.
I am with stock recovery 3e.
Has only few commands like reboot now,install update from adb,cache,sd card and wiping cache and another option for wiping data to factory settings (and two irrelevant options of restoring/backing up user data).
I tried wiping all data and cache,still bootlooping.
Tried with mediatek firmware adapter tool,but i think it cannot change the build.prop file while bootlooping (it cannot find my device when in recovery mode),because it is either in use,or in read-only mode.
Tried with android commander,but didnt know what to do there.
I downloaded rather late a CWM recovery for my phone,and also if I am not mistaken two roms - one of them is exactly like mine.
But when tried to install thru recovery adb sideload it starts and then says : restating ADBD ....... installation aborted and returns me to main recovery menu. Tried with my backed up build.prop which i have put in flashable zip file.
However,the two roms i have downloaded arent working properly.They are zip,but still adb sideload cannot read them.
And another (i dont know if it is relevant) my external sd card 16 gb default,when i put it in my old gsm to put the two roms and cwm recovery files,first windows wanted to format it and the only option was FAT 32,total of 2.87GB.What has happened to my sd card ?
Still I couldnt install from the external sd card the roms,only zip with build.prop file was listed and gave the same mistake as said above : restating ADBD ....... installation aborted.
PP: I have arrived at the conclusion that the problem is this line ro.sf.lcd_density=221,which is in build.prop file (I might be wrong).So the question is can i somehow modify the prop file or what should i do ?
And why has my sd card shortened from 14,6gb to 2.87 ?
Sorry for the long post.
Problem with T94 too
I tried to modify the build.prop file to enable the soft keys and the phone doesn't work now! stops at the android logo and I don't know how to make it work now. I re-edited the file back to its original using ADB explorers and still the same. Any help on how to recover it would be highly appreciated.

if you want the original build.prop file i have got it,
can you tell me how did you do the CWM recovery without the phone being working?
Installing CWM Recovery Tengda T94
My phone has been bricked and after really hard work I could install CWM Recovery and I'm about to try the Spanish rom, so wanted to share what I have reached to before I forget.
----Do at you own risk-----
-My phone was in a boot loop and USB debugging was previously activated before it bricked
-I installed all the necessary drivers, USB_VCOM_Drivers (Available here: http://goo.im/devs/C3C0/THLW8/tools/USB_VCOM_drivers.zip)
I created the scatter file/map using MTK droid tool, and used the CWM Recovery of the Spanish Rom at this link:
http://www.movilesdualsim.com/foro/threads/42700-ROM-Custom-ROM-T94-v1-0b
I'm going to upload the scatter file and the CWMrecoveryT94.img, download this sp flash tool for quad core scatter files
http://www.4shared.com/zip/kf__h7u-/sp_flash_tool_zopomobileshop_q.html?cau2=403tNull
Switch off your phone, open SP Flash Tool Quad Core that you downloaded, choose the scatter file available here, double click recovery and choose the CWMrecoveryT94.img available here and press "Download" press yes for the message that appears and connect your phone, it will confirm the success by a green big circle message.
I will update my further proceeding.
Tengda T94 GPS never works
Does anyone have any idea about fixing the GPS problem? I watched a video in youtube in spanish who showed a working fast GPS but I don't understand what he says but he showed in the description that he added a copper foil piece to the GPS antenna, if anyone had luck fixing it please share.
Here is the video:

Hi, I just bought this phone from TECA Mobility, it turns out to be an Alps S5. See attachement for a detailed description.
I tried to ge the root. I tried some different tools, without success.
MTK Droid Tools ROOT button doesn't work but gives a link to xda's MKT forum, so I started with the recommended procedure. I tried to read back the ROM with SP-FlashTools but no way, it doesn't start. I also made some attempts with the Android SDK but adb backup of course doesn't work for the System partition without root.
When I send the adb reboot recovery command the phone goes in download mode, with the adb reboot bootloader command it goes in fastboot mode, while to have it in the factory recovery mode I have to manually hold down the start and vol down buttons. However, it doesn't matter, the readback does not start.
Should I try to install the CWD recovery without having a backup of the ROM? I think it's too risky. I looked at NEEDROM to see if I can find my ROM, but didn't find. I found these, "S5 SM-G900 MT6592", but I cannot be sure it's the right one.
Somebody can help me? I want to root the device.

Hi
1) First root your device using MTK Chopper (from PC) or framaroot (from android app) . Both work fine for MTK phones
2) Then using MTK droid tools backup your ROM. Here is the guide for that
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2730031
3)Then using MTK droid tools , make CWM recovery for your phone and install it . Here is guide for that

I think you mean MOTO Chopper? It doesn't work, same as framaroot. They are old tools, they don't work anymore on the ROMs released after June 2014.
ODIN could work but I have not the sure/right file to download.
Generally speaking, the first thing to do is that of getting a backup of the ROM from the un-rooted phone
The guides that have been reported to work in these cases are:
From XDA:

From China Devices:

Hereunder is the link to a success case story:
http://www.china-devices.com/Thread-Rooting-new-octacore-S5
There is no way I know to get the root with one-click-tools, there is no case I could find of anybody being able to root these phones by following other procedures.
If anybody knows better, please send me a link (MTK phones with ROM s released after june 2014 only!!!)
My only problem now is that I cannot get the read back with Flash Tools. I have tried uncountable button-pressing combinations, I have put the phone in recovery, download, fastboot mode, I have tried with and without battery, phone switched off or on - no error, but the read-back doesn't start (however my phone doesn't have the USB connection working when it's off or without battery).
The only way to skip this step is, if I had already a copy of the firmware available, a sure one.
Kindly help me if you can
Hi
Odin doesn't work for MTK mate
Try this latest app . It worked for some latest MTK KK phones
http://www.kingoapp.com/index.htm
Some other KK phones got rooted using vroot and rootgenius
Try your luck
Final option is to read back from SPFT which has 90+ success rate

As bizarre as this sounds, I managed to get root on a similar phone (another MTK6592 S5 knockoff) with MTK tools. After exhausting my options, I clicked the ADB button and tried to get root shell regardless (via 'adb root shell', which probably isn't the proper command but it works regardless), which caused some sort of hang. After a minute or so I unplugged my phone, which caused things to start responding again; plugging it back in showed me as having temporary root, and the get root button actually worked the next time I tried it. I have no idea how or why it worked, or if it was a once in a lifetime occurrence, but it can't hurt to try.
Also, if your phone is anything like mine (and is actually running some form of KitKat), good luck getting write support for external SD cards. I couldn't get the system partition to mount (to write changes to the necessary file) via anything but ADB shell.
Problem solved
Good to know, thank ypu.
However in the meantime I solved my problem.
My phone works this way: I have to remove the battery and connect it to the USB cable. Then it goes in "preloader mode" and tries to install a driver called "MT65XX preloader driver". This driver actually emulates a COM port. If data transfer doesn't start, then, after a few seconds, the device goes down and disappear from Windows list. So it is easy to miss it when we install all drivers. I had to dowload it (from Google cloud service in my case), install and ... the Read Back started !!! Now I have completed the procedure and my phone is rooted with the CWD recovery installed.

Maybe your phone was using firmware dated before june 2014? These was a bug that was exploited by Framaroot, but now they fixed it.
Is your phone also from ALPS? They sold it to me as capable of installing an external 64GB SDHC card, but I cannot have it working. Did you face any similar issue?
Otherwise 32GB cards work fine. Have you tried Aparted app? I use it for formatting/maintenace. This app makes partitioning, I guess it should work.
Also, if your phone is from ALPS, does it really have the ROM memory that is advertised?
I am facing some interesting issues with my phone on this respect. It was sold as having 16GB internal ROM, of which about 12GB avalible for users. In fact, the settings menu shows 10GB ,( 8GB available) of internal memory, and about 4GB of phone memory. Well, if I am correct, this so called internal memory maps to the directory /data (the one highest level in the root), who corresponds to partirtion mmcblk0p7. This partition actually has a size of 2.3GB instead of 10 !!!. f I install and try to run online Nandroid backup, I cannot have it working on paths directed towards the SDcards, but it works on the path data/media. Well, a backup of about 1.2GB is shown in the setting menu of the phone as a memory consumption of about 5 GB !!!
Then I had also hard time in copying this file from the /data directory to one of the SD cards. Root Browser and Root Explorer didn't work, only ES Manager with root rights worked.
Maybe you can give me some advice in finding some tool or SDK procedure to assess what the real total size of the memory is? Or some suggestion on how to fix the ext 64GB card? I got bad feelings with the guys who sold this phone to me, so I would like to collect some more evidence if possible.
I downloaded some applications for making device inspection. They read the manufacturers' data, so they get cheated - even if, in some cases, they can show the right amount of unused memory still available (quite lower than declared by the phone) . Also I cannot see the real size of the RAM memory used by the CPU .
Need stock ROM for Teca g89 mobile.
Hi experts,
I need stock ROM of TECA G89W ANDROID 4.4 2.4GHz 4GB-RAM +32GB 18MP 5.5-inch GPS SMARTPHONE. I brought this phone 6 months back and unfortunately the software corrupted. I tried with other ROMs and currently bricked my phone. If anyone who might have this phone by fortunate can help me to post the stock rom by read back or any process whatever you wish as you know much than me.
Desperately need the ROM file as I want to have my phone back to working.... Thank you....

Hello,
first of all, i have to say i am googling around and found nothing, exept how i use a scatterfile etc.
My problem:
After flashing a custom cwm with spflashtools to my jiayu g2f, i got the nvram warning under wifi.
This warning comes, because wifi/bt MAC is random and IMEI is lost.
This is reproducable.
So my question is:
All tutorials said, flashing a custom cwm with spflash is not a problem:
just select modem db file and scatter, select only the recovery and change the file to the custom one.
I take the custom one from needrom. It works, when
flashing via mtk droid, but when flashing with spflash, i get the nvram error.
I recognize, that the size of the file is another than the original size in the official rom. Isnt there a need of editing the scatterfile to fit it to the new size or is the recovery area on the phone big enough?
Today i make my own cwm via mtk droid tools and i flash it. Also with this, i am able to reproduce the nvram error.
For me, it is only possible to write the IMEI and WLAN MAC and BT MAC back with SN Station writer. All other tools
will fail on my device.
Thanks for reading,
Nine
Hello
I bought a Lenovo p780 from a Chinese website 6 months ago (4gb), rooted.
I faced a problem with the signal of sim cards "invalid imei", so I tried to install TWRP recovery using a tutorial I saw online to use the recovery to install a new "modem" file. I used Mobileuncle app to do this but this step caused my phone to enter a bootloop, and the only way to get rid of this loop is to press the reset button whenever you want to turn the phone on! I tried to install other recoveries using Mobileuncle but nothing has changed too!
I also tried to flash a stock rom using sp flashtool but it just didn't work!! I tried many stock roms versions and many versions of the flash tool programs but when I press "firmware upgrade" or "download" nothing happens! believe me I tried everything to make this happen, I even tried to do this on different computers (win 7 and win 8.1) but I got the same result: nothing! No need to mention that I've already installed all the USB drivers on my computers. I read every single word in every single tutorial I found (including tutorials from this forum), but it's always the same failure!
I tried to change the modem file using Root Explorer but I missed with some folders and now even the Wifi doesn't work. All I need now is get my phone functions as normal with stock rom or with a custom rom.
I would be very appreciated if you can tell my what's wrong and why I can't flash a rom to my phone although it's not bricked at all and I can turn it on!
Hi,
after ROM flashing (ROM that was working fine for me earlier - MIUI V5 5.1.30 , Android 4.2.2 )
i started to get this in recovery :
unable to mount /emmc
unable to mount internal memory
unable to mount /data
+ i cant even wipe dalvik cache.
after first boot, the ROM is stuck at boot logo ( MI logo).
I thought its a bad flash so I flashed a ROM that I got the phone from dealer with (MIUI 4.4.25). Phone turned on, but the IMEI numbers are gone.
When I run Mobileuncle tools / Engineer mode , the CDS Information option is greyed out, its not active.
So I wanted to recover the IMEI via MTK Droid Root & Tools . But when I plug in the device to the PC, the PC doesnt recognize it.
Also, my phone doesnt recognize the SD card (in the OS, in the recovery its everything OK).
Can you help me with this?
THANK YOU

Hi. What MIUI did you flash ? What version ?
What you have to do is to enter again in recovery with vol+ vol- and power button pressed all together!
Wipe everything except SD Card!
Remove your SD Card and go to some laptop or PC with SD Card reader, copy your old MIUI on it.
After copy and wipe go to your phone and insert your card.
Start your phone directly in recovery and now your SD Card should be recognized by the phone.
Reflash your old MIUI.
Good Luck.
Tell us if you have problems!

that will be a big problem if phone cannot be detected on sp flash tool anymore. make sure phone is turned off and the sp flash is waiting for your device after you insert cable to phone.
i made some progress, MTK Droid Root n Tools recognized the phone.
i should be able to flash the stock now, right?
EDIT: I managed to flash S135 (130917) - stock chineese rom and internal storage, USB storage, SD storage - all seems to be functional and loaded. So this issue seems to be figured out.
EDIT: flashed desired MIUI 4.4.25 Multilang via CWM, all storages operational. Im on fixing the IMEI now.
--------------------------------------
EDIT: I cant restore the IMEI.
I tried imei.exe trick. No change.
I tried engineering mode / Uncle tools - in MIUI i dont have access to CDS Information, in stock ROM I do, but experience a "failed to send" response.
I tried MTK Droid Tools - i type in new IMEI, i reboot via the programme and after reboot the IMEIs are still "null"/"null".
Im desperate. Any help?

looks like i need to restore hard-IMEI, this is my case:
NStorm said:
They guy clearly told he is able to restore MP0B_001 in phone, but its SOFT-IMEI and is lost after wipe/factory reset.
@ Original question by ToldarkenHansam, which is kinda outdated, but considering lame answers here:
To restore HARD-IMEI in NVRAM hidden partition use SN Write Tool or Maui META 3G. They are able to write hard IMEI and calibration to NVRAM partition.
@ kokabunga - if you have nvram.bin backup you can easily resore it with SP Flash Tool. Just open your scatter file with any text editor, find a __NODL_NVRAM section and remove __NODL_ part from it. Reopen scatter in SP Flash Tool and you'll be able to check NVRAM partition.
It might not be able to upload it without other parts selected. But you can you Options->Write memory, then manually enter start address, which will be show on download/upgrade page near NVRAM and length (your nvram.bin length) - that will always work. Be careful to write correct address thou.
Sidenote: all suggested methods before only touch SOFT-IMEI, stored in /data/nvram/md/NVRAM/NVD_IMEI/MP0B_001. Its lost with any wipe/reset, because whole /data partition are formatted. Then the whole /data/nvram directory (if it's empty) are restored from hidden NVRAM partition on EMMC. If you've corrupted your NVRAM when it won't restore correct IMEI ofc. With all methods mentioned above (i.e. replacing MP0B_001, echoing to pttycmd1, using mtkdroidtools, mobileuncletools and others) will only edit MP0B_001, i.e. soft copy of IMEI, which will be lost again with next hardware reset. Sure you restore your IMEI that way every time you wipe/reset/upgrade firmware. But its more solid to fix your IMEI partition with SN Write Tool / Maui META 3G so it will be correctly restored automatically from NVRAM at every wipe/etc.

but Maui META 3G isnt recognizing my phone, though it starts a meta mode automatically. SN Write tool itsnt working as well.
Thoughts? Is it possible to flash just a nvram partition? When I try my SP Flash Tools get a 8038 error.
i found a nvram.img for p780 from someones backup on the web, so i tried to restore it via adb, i got this:
edit: OK, the batch file runned succesfully ( its the utility nvram_backup_restore_wo_root-shell_3.7z , stympy, you posted it here in one thread )
what shall i do now? the IMEI are still invalid after reboot.
put the nvram.img to your sdcard not on your computer. and try the batch file again.. I tried that before using that image .. it did not help restoring imei... try it maybe it will help you
Hi all. For those of you who flashed wrong firmware and your IMEI are gone look what happent to me:
1. i flashed a custom recovery who errased my IMEI. That happent because the recovery was 7.5 mb instead of 6 and i was "blind" and careless and stupid and...nevermind
2. after restart surrpriseee.. no IMEI.
3. allmost total panic here.On MTK Droid Tool 2.5.3 IMEI NULL paniC again, and my worst nightmare PTTYCMD1 ERROR FILE NOT FOUND. Panic panic panic, used hard words #@$^%&(&&%$%& words alot.
4. after a little cooling i reflashed my old TWRP back and started to look in my computer for the firmware i allready have installed wass Baralajbi v6 (i like the partitioning of internal memory) firmware from needrom. Before that i tried to restore the NVRAM from TWRP. It did not work. No IMEI has appeared after restoring with TWRP.So i have rebooted the OS back and i immediatly go to /dev/radio where the PTTYCMD1 and the folder was empty.Again *&^%&$%^#^%#%^#^&(*(^* words.
5. Then i have reflashed Baralajbi firmware and after flash i have installed Root Explorer. Again i immediatly go to /dev/radio where the PTTYCMD1 and the folder was this time all the files were there.
6. So if this file PTTYCMD1 is in the /dev/radio folder you can restore your IMEI safely with any tool.
7. I hope this little problem of mine will help you other users to restore your IMEI.
I flashed different recovery (6mb, cwm) and different rom (miui 4.4.25 multilang).
I managed to get this... (But all of them have 0 size). Is it good?
I tried to use mobileuncle tools, but the option i need is still greyed out (wonder if miui blocks it out? on stock rom it was accessable)

You must try to flash a stock firmware CN or ROW.
MIUI is custom firmware.
The firmware must be flashed with SP Flash Tool.
