Hi Guys,
As usual other guys, I screwed up my Canvas HD 116 (hw version 1 and sw version 16) by loading JB 4.2 and got TP firmware upgrade error. And then I started work on getting touch panel (FT5206) firmware working.
Well did adb on factory mode and tried running Tpupgrade using OTG keyboard, and got Firmware bin file error. So I looked up /system/bin/factory bin carefully and found out that it searches touch panel firmware in "/mnt/sdcard/tp_firmware".
Here is list of bin files it looks under "tp_firmware"
tinno-fts-update-byd.bin
tinno-fts-update-truly.bin
tinno-fts-update-nanbo.bin
tinno-fts-update-baoming.bin
tinno-fts-update-jiemian.bin
tinno-fts-update-yeji.bin
Now I really don't know which Tinno platform 116 has, byd or truly or yeji.....
I got two firmware bin under "/etc/firmware/ft5206" -
tinno-fts-update-jiemian.bin
tinno-fts-update-yeji.bin
So I copied these bin to "/mnt/sdcard/tp_firmware", given 0777 permission (please use 'su') and tried TP upgrade again, but still same error.
So conclusion is -
1. Either I need to find out other missing bin
2. Or I need to fix permission issue if any
well, I am trying hard, if anyone has any clue, info please let me know.
let's work together and get rid of this stupid touch panel firmware upgrade issue.
mmx service center simply replacing all v16 motherboards by v20 motherboards and loading JB 4.2 on it. But I want mu v16 motherboard fully working with touch, so sure, I will try hard to get it
Thanks,
Shrikrishna B
Dude whts this v16 and v20 motherboard? How can we find it?

Just remove battery and below that you will find hw and sw version.
hw version 1 and sw version 12
or
hw version 1 and sw version 16
or
hw version 1 and sw version 20
Now, what I found and predicting is that version 12 and 16 doesn't work with JB 4.2, as touch issue is there as what I found. need to make it confirm from others too.
Micromax has Tinno Mobile platform, and version 12, 16 and 20 corresponds to software versions of this Tinno Platform (TP).
Now in my case, I have version 16 A116, and stucked with TP issue. I am trying to re-program TP firmware bin from factory mode, but no luck yet. There is permission issue for /mnt/sdcard/tp_firmware, need to make it -rw-r--r--
I think ver 12 ,16 ,20 doesnt have much to do with tp upgrade as all these versions were of jellybean 4.1.2 tp upgrade happens when you upgrade to 4.2.1 jellybean that also happens only once .
If you can go to recovery mode you will find an option called tp upgrade select that option by pressing the list soft key at the lower left corner
Thank me if i helped you

In factory mode, sure there is option for TP upgrade, but here are the issues for that -
1. As touch panel is not working, we cant select the option as it requires pressing left soft key. (and hence poor software design)
2. We can launch TP upgrade using OTG keyboard, it starts, but throws error for FW bin file. Ultimately I found that it looks for binary in /mnt/sdcard/tp_firmware folder, but it dont have access rights, and I can't provide it as there is permission provided to do that.

So you're saying to flash 4.1.2 firmware based on v20 first and then flash 4.2 firmware? I checked the development section and that's what I think I should do..
Did it.
First upgraded to v20 firmware, got tp update there. Then flashed 4.2 firmware. Success!
It didn't do tp update during this second flash.
No problems with the update. Touchscreen working, IMEI intact etc etc.. Thanks a lot!
Is there any manual process to update this touch panel after updating to 4.2.1
Like flashing a zip or some else manual process in which we don't to format the user data!!

Well, it depends upon at what place last firmware upgrade failed.
If last time, the TP upgrade failed before erasing out original firmware, then on rebooting phone TP upgrade will again try to upgrade the firmware. The TP upgrade module on boot-up verifies firmware versions in touch panel chip-set with existing one, and upgrades it.
Now in other case, if last time TP upgrade failed after erasing out origional firmware and before burning new firmware, then you screwed up the touch panel. As on next reboot, as there is no firmware in touch panel chip-set, TP upgrade simply fails as it is unable to get touch panel vendor and firmware version.
I am struggling and debugging to get it working, just downloaded source code for micromax a116, so will try to build driver and to get it resolved.

Actually I would like you to know that this thing TP upgrade didn't took place when i updated my phone from 4.1.2 to 4.2.1
and as well the upgrade didn't failed.
It completed in first time.
The only thing I find is some sort of dots on the screen on colored lines of system.
and the screen is a bit laggy compared to 4.1.2
Very poorly written driver for touch-panel FT5316 on Canvas HD A116. Working on making changes in this driver to upgrade touch panel firmware automatically when TP upgrade fails. This will happen at booting time only, so will solve issue for touch panel not working after TP upgrade failed.
Testing the driver on my A116, will release soon so that other can use it.

hey same happened here with a friends device , did u completed writing driver with source code and to rectify the touch panel thinggie to wort flawless , or what to do now? Flash with v20 4.1.2 and the upgrade to TP once more and then update to 4.2.1
TP Upgrade failed.
Was upgrading from 4.1.2 to 4.2.1 but got this TP upgrade thing. I pressed the 'Ok' button one time and it made the touch to stop working. After a reboot the phone just gets stuck on new setup screen. I have given the phone to Micromax service center but since 2 weeks they have been giving me stories about the Touch being damaged on the phone. I was wondering if that IS POSSIBLE?? for the touch screen itself to be damaged just by the touch of a wrong button??
I hope someone does find a solution for this as I have lost hope in Micromax aftersales services.
TP Upgrade failed
If TP update is messed up there is no fix for it yet !! I have spent 3 days and 3 nights trying to get it fixed but my work was in vain. People facing this problem has to contact Micromax service center. I will be visiting them tomo. Once I get the phone fixed may be i can try to find out a solution. Good Luck guys !!:good:

Hi everyone,
I believe there might be a solution for TP upgrade failure. If anybody has a back up of their canvas HD touch calibration taken through Maui Meta I guess it can be restored back in the phone which has failed TP upgrade. Or if some one has a perfectly working canvas HD a back up of touch calibration can be taken and the back up can be restored back in the phone which has failed TP upgrade. No guarantee if its gonna work as its not tested. Good luck guys. :good: :fingers-crossed:

I faced this issue on my friends phone but after several restarts mainly 3 or 4 by removing battery and putting it back did the job. As on 1st boot TP Upgrade fails then taken out battery wait a min and put it back in and start the phone don't touch anything till 10min. to half and hour. hope you get it back working.

I had been to the service center in Bangalore Jaynagar, I dont think the service center guys are trained !!! They wanted me to change the whole Touch Panel which would cost me around 2.5K i tried explaining them it is due to the TP software but I dont think they understood. I am left with no options now.

Try going to sammobile and reflashing 4.4.4, when I initially flashed the OTA my Bluetooth stopped working in my truck. I reflashed and everything worked as advertised. I'm now on cyanogenmod 12 it's awesome!

Hi there,
I've decided to describe my problem in order to get help, as long as I cannot handle it on my own.
So... I bought my CN version p780 almost in october 2014 on aliexpress and it was running pretty cool(beside little disturbances in phone calls quality, especially my microphone). Not sure, but I think the date of production is may or june 2014. In february appeared a problem with modem - my phone lost connection with both cards.
Since then I change ROM and modemfirmware in order to find a proper combination for me.
Some of firmwares work a little bit but only with low signal and outside of buildings. With one card only, the signal is low/mid inside buildings.
I live in Poland.
I prefer KitKat firmware if it is possible - recently I've installed baralajbi ROM.
Can any of you suggest any solution for me?
Sincelery,

Title says it all. My wife has an LG G3 on Sprint, LG-ls990, and I'd like to update it to the latest stuff for her. She's on android 5.1.1 from forever ago and for the life of me I cant find her firmware version? Hers is showing LVY48F. Can some kind soul give me some guidance?
Also, it's rooted, has TWRP and a custom ROM.
Huh...I'm on 5.0.1 still. When I unrooted from KK a month ago and went totally stock I waited for days to get past zvf and it never happened. I wonder how you wife got 5.1.1. My wife's totally stock never ever rooted G3 has been at 5.0.1 zvf for ever now and even doing a firmware update poll from her phone results in no update to 5.1.1.
Have you tried searching for the 5.1.1 rom to sideload it?
There's a newer version available but it's for 7.1. Can I flash that at the current state of the phone.

is the 7.1 a custom ROM or an official update

what sim are you trying to use? you will need to run the GSM patch to get GSM sims to work correctly. also check if your IMEI is clean at https://swappa.com/esn
