Question about porting Newsmy T7 wifi drivers from GB to ICS - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My friend gave me an Android 2.3 Newsmy T7 pad using Rockchip RK2918, unfortunately this model have many different hardware revision and the one I got is the oldest and doesn't have any official ICS upgrade.
I tried to force flashing stock ICS rom for newer hardware revision, everything worked well except wifi, I cant switch wifi on and it says "Turning on Wifi.." forever and the wifi switch keeps off.
I have the current 2.3 rom and 4.0 rom(for other hw rev.) in .img format, is it possible to port wifi drivers from 2.3 rom to 4.0? will it be as easy as unpack->copy n paste->repack?
I am uploading the roms into dropbox, i will post a link to the roms afterwards.

Link to rom: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/4zhm0hy6a933r2b/AAADrmmdf90VBHeXrsyFWlWda?dl=0
I am able to unpack those roms into boot.img, reovery.img, misc.img, kernel.img and system.img using imgRePackerRK, i could view system.img dump from 4.0 rom with ext4_unpacker but I can not do that with 2.3 system.img, show an error "Unknown File Format".
any suggestions?

[Q] Flashing another devices stock rom

I have SM-P902 Note Pro 12.2" + 3G. Its a special version for Turkey.
Universal version of Note Pro 12.2" + 3G is called SM-P901. I ve searched and it seems like P902 and P901 has same hardware at all. Since there is no stock rom for p902 or update, i want to flash P901 stock rom to my device.
When i try to flash P901 rom from Odin i get error and it fails. I belive its some kind of product code mismatch or sth.
Here is what i asking for.
1. Is there a way i can flash P901 rom to my P902 via Odin?
2. When i extract tar file i get system.img file. Can i flash it somehow? Will it work?
3. Can i extract system.img file? (Tried ext4_unpacker but i get img file format error)
Device works with 4.4.2

Need help with porting a rom

i have tried many different instructions on how to port a rom. i have the stock rom of my device and i have the rom i want to port. my stock rom uses spflash tools to gain root. and flash custom recovery. but the port files in the zip file has far less items . in my stock rom it has everything in img files its got
MY STOCK ROM for BLU_S0130UU
boot.img
boot verifired.img
recovery.img
recovery verified.img
ramdisk-recovery.img
ramdisk.img
secro-verified.img
secro.img
system.img
chache.img
lk-verified.bin
lk.bin
and the port rom
touchwiz s6 mtk6753
boot.img
system folder
meta-inf folder.
thats it
anyways i have tried to follow the word for word of the how to port a custom rom .
but cant seem to make it work.
when i install the zip with twrp i get error 6 i think its got to do something with the metadata file and the build prop. but im lost at this point.
both phones are identical chipset mt6753 both kernel are 3.10.65 and pretty much all idectical specs.
if i give the 2 roms to someone do you think you could try to make this work for me.

Can not find cust.image!

Device Model:RNE-L21C432B137
Android Version: 7.0
EMUI version: 5.1
Hello Guys!
Recently I tried to reflash my stock rom...
However, in all tutorials I saw there where these files to flash in fastboot: boot.img recovery.img cust.img system.img.
However, I only found boot, recovery and system image in the update.app file! Also, when I reflash my stock rom, it only showed me the default android boot screen instead of the Huawei boot screen. Also, when I went into system settings and looked up my device model, it only said: Generic_a15
I think this actually has something to do with the cust.image file.
And resulting from that... My camera and YouTube and my audio isn't working anymore... Great.
Can someone here help me?

Huawei Y7 Prime 2018 (LDN-L21) - I want to FLASH my phone, but how? Problem

Hello,
I found that it is possibility to Install new system on a phone. I did research about this but I don't really know how I don't understand everything.
When I was searching for my phone model there were some inaccuracies.
For example: I couldn't find the proper version. I have found "firmwares" that differs by one letter and I don't know I can download it or better no :/
My Phone Specifications are:
HUAWEI Y7 Prime 2018
Model: LDN-L21
LDN-L21 8.0.0.147(C432)
EMUI Version: 8.0.0
Android System Version: 8.0.0
Custom Version: CUSTC432D1
I found a site where I can download Firmwares.
My question is: Can I download for example this version and install it?
LDN-L21 London-L21A 8.0.0.150(C432CUSTC432D1)
or I must find version that exactly match my phone specifications? And what the word "London" means here?
Could somebody tell me step by step what should I do to Install new system on my phone?
Hello.
There are 1 letter difference in model - L21A and L21B. I guess there are no really HW or SW differences, but I stayed at L21B stock rom.
London is commercial codename for that type/serie of phone. LDN-L01 to L29 are similar Huawei and Honor phones with various names (Y7 2018/ Nova 2 lite / Honor 7A/7C etc). Other line/serie has other city name.
Latest stock rom for LDN-L21B is 8.0.0.151, for now.
If your phone is not rooted, still bootloader locked, with stock recovery: use System update from Settings or boot to eRecovery, connect to WiFi and let phone download latest rom and install it automatically.

I guess that you can use some of recovery modes: stock recovery, TWRP recovery or fastboot flash. Inside every ZIP is UPDATE.app. Every *.app can be unpacked with Huawei_Update_Extractor_v0.9.9.5. Eccential partitions for flash are ramdisk, kernel, product, system, vendor, version, cust. Extracted IMGs are still packed as SPARE img, so you have to unpack them with SIMG2IMG (simg2img system.img sys.img).
Now images can be flashed with custom *TWRP* recovery or fastboot (fastboot flash system system.img).

How to flash Nokia G11 Plus

Can I safely flash new firmware on my nokia g11 Plus using "SP Flash Tool"?
They say that the program is for flashing devices based on the mediatek processor, but from what I know the nokia g11 plus has a Unisoc T606 processor?
Is there any other software to upload firmware to this phone model?

Thanx for answer, so i already have the program.
I have searched for several hours for software but all of them are just in .Bin format :c and the program requires a firmware in .Pac format
Strange because I downloaded the firmware from the given link.
Payload.Bin could be installed via recovery but on nokia g11 plus it is so poor it only has three useless options like reboot or turn of device :v
the file you have is not full firmware (because of the small file size) it's more likely just incremental OTA update file.
you can however have a look inside with payload dumper.

Made with Go. By utilizing goroutines, this can extract img files from (full) OTA payload.bin really quickly. See how fast this is: https://i.imgur.com/adpijqf Source Code: https://github.com/ssut/payload-dumper-go Prebuilt binaries...

Yeah right, it is OTA, If I don't find StockRom, I won't fix this brick, soo annoying cuz there is no .Spd firmware to flash in internet.
I even searched on Chinese forums, such a charm of these phones?
can only find 1.8gb OTA update.zip flashable for recovery mode.
maybe ask nokia support. or contact this guy (see unbrick EDL Package)
