Really guys, at the moment everything is a little scattered. Its very dificultly to
find some Infos and you have to read through a whole thread to make an update... so i
think it wouldn't be so bad if we make a central thread to catch all the Infos.
I'll get everything together in the next few minutes, so that everything is visible in a central thread
Furthermore, I think it makes sense, if the updates in a thread are supplemented. Say, you
have found something (link to an OTA as example), write me a message and I supplement
the instructions.
further I would like to thank everyone who helped to find the update processes and files.
i will try to make a thank in every part i "repost" from another one, to let everyone know, that
this guy found out something, and not me.
Greetings

Hi everyone.
I'm really sick of this phone (X10 mini pro). right now no matter what i try and flash to it using xrecovery and update.zip, i reboot and always find that i'm running the same old system - like as if i've done NOTHING TO IT AT ALL!
I tried flashing this (which is what i really wanted):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1041099
Nothing, reboots into stock.
I then tried this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1059361
Also no luck.
What am i doing wrong!? I download the rom, extract (System, META-INF and/or any other folder) and then i install any hotfixes by dragging and dropping/replacing files.
I then zip up the system and meta folders (plus anything else ie: Data folder) to update.zip, then install via xrecovery -- which does so fine, no warning messages -- then i CLEAR cache or format data (if instructed) and reboot.
As far as i can tell, i'm doing NOTHING wrong and it's extremely frustrating. Everytime i reboot i'm greeted with the same old setup wizard, same old theme, same stock "About Phone" details, as listed below:
Model Number:
U20i
Firmware Version:
2.1-update1
Baseband Version:
M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015
Kernal Version:
2.6.29
[email protected] #1
Build Number:
2.1.1.A.0.6
What is going on???
Have you tried not renaming the zip file and flash it as it is, then flash the hotfixes next?
Maybe what you added or replaced caused the flashing to not work at all. For me when I flash a big rom it'll take about a minute. If it was flashed and you don't even see it copying files then it must have failed.

Choose custom zip, navigate to the zip file location in your sd card and confirm flashing it. Must work. I bet you flashed the "update.zip" which doesn't exist.
Sent from my U20i using XDA App
Thanks for the quick reply guys.
Unfortunately i've tried both these methods and i still get the same problem. (I just tried both methods again to be sure) Xrecovery just states "Copying files..." then within about a minute or so, it tells me it's "Completed"
Just for the record, i did buy this phone used (and "unlocked" to any network) would that somehow have something to do with this?
I've also tried a factory reset using the PC companion from Sony (then installing a rom) even after that i still get this problem.
Frustrating, very frustrating.
Ok, so i did this all over again:
Step 1.
Reset phone using PC Companion
Step 2
Setup Wifi using the wizard
Step 3
enable usb debugging and Unknown Sources (both under Applications)
Step 4
Connect phone via usb, transfer over Xrecovery, update.zip, etc. Then UNMOUNT SDCARD.
Root phone using S1C, install busybox during then reboot.
Step 5:
Setup marketplace account & Download (provided i get past that rediculous "downloading.." hang bug):
Busybox Installer, once downloaded, double click icon and install
Download and install Root Explorer
Step 6:
install Xrecovery manually using Root Explorer, placing it's 3 files in \system\bin
step 7:
Connect usb, transfer over update.zip, reboot and enter xrecovery
Now, guess what? XRECOVERY won't even start when i hit the back button when the SE logo appears!
One problem after another, about to give up. Really not impressed.
Do the following at your own risk
> Before you start make sure you have
- Root access
- Busy box and terminal emulator (you can get this from the market) installed
1. Download this script http://www.mediafire.com/?yw2a3r2didpb51t
2. Extract the folder called AAIS and rename it to "aais" (without the quotations)
3. Copy the aais folder to sdcard
4. Open up terminal emulator and type in the following commands
Code:
su
Click on allow when superuser dialog pops up and then type
Code:
cd sdcard/aais
Code:
sh install.sh
A list will appear, type the number which installs xrecovery and press enter
Once the phone has rebooted
1. Copy the zip of the rom which you want to install straight to the sd card (Do not rename it, extract it or do anything to it)
2. Copy the zip of the hotfixes straight to the sd card (again do not rename, extract or do anything)
3. Reboot phone, when it reaches "Sony Ericsson" press back a few times to boot into xrecovery
4. Using xrecovery do this
- Wipe cache partition
- Advanced option > wipe dalvik cache and wipe battery stats
- Go back to xrecovery main menu and then click on factory reset (full wipe)
4. Then goto install custom zip > choose custom zip from sdcard > and then choose the rom zip. Let it install
5. Once rom is installed click on choose custom zip from sdcard > and then choose the hotfix zip.
6. Once installed go back to xrecovery main menu and reboot phone
Hopefully should work

Thanks for this post, exactly what i needed. Tis much appreciated.
I did what you said, word for word, and everything went smoothly. Xrecovery booted up fine and installed everything fine.
Unfortunately, this has failed to resolve the problem. I'm totally clueless as i'm sure most of you are. All i can say is it's not user error - i've not done anything wrong or missed a THING. I've really followed as you instructed word for word (as i did with previous attempts) and i still got nowhere. I've now spent all day trying to resolve this and still with no luck.
The only difference all of this ever seems to make is i'm constantly bothered by popups saying "X application has failed" etc etc now. It still just boots into the regular OS like as if nothing has happend.
Download this file, do not extract it, copy it straight to your sd card:
https://rapidshare.com/#!download|7...zip|121614|R~E38D143E052C271F51D9FBCAF24427E1

https://rapidshare.com/#!download|3...ight.zip|1|R~11A42E8D7D5D2FAE74791CC0D9911BE7
Go into xrecovery then
Wipe cache partition
Wipe dalvick cache
Wipe battery stats
Factory reset (full wipe)
Goto install custom zip from sd card and flash the first file
then flash the second file. Reboot phone. Hope it works.
1- Download Sony Ericsson Update Service from here -> http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/sup...ed/updateservice/xperiax10minipro?cc=gb&lc=en
2- Install it !

5- Turn off your phone and remove your battery.
6- Wait 30 seconds x)
7- Plug your usb cable in your computer but not yet in your phone !
8- Replace your battery !
9- Press and hold "Back" button (the 3rd physic button) !
10- Plug your usb cable into your phone !
11- Let's SEUS doing his work !
12- When it says "Finiiiiish !!!", unplug your usb cable and boot your phone !
13- Go to Settings -> About the phone and check if your Firmware is : 2.1.1.A.0.6 !
14- Root your phone.
15- Install xRecovery with K><A method !
16- After, download the ROM you want, place it at the root of your SD card.
17- Reboot into xRecovery and choose "install a custom.zip"
18- Select the .zip of your ROM and apply
That would fix your problem if you follw my instructions

Hi to all! My tablet is bricked I can open the recovery menu, but, even if i can use "adb sideload" command from my pc, i don't have a rom to send to my tablet. How can i solve the problem? The tablet can boot but it remains in the "initial configuration page", because a system process always crashes".... Please help me
If you can get into recovery and other things your not bricked, junior member. I don't know the exact process but if someone with an a1000 knew or was willing and instructed they could dump the rom and if someone knew how could make it into a flashable zip, maybe, like I said don't know the exact process

there is a post post in lenovo forum PREAMBLE-FOR-LENOVO-A1000-ROM-RECOVERY-ETC
u can a nandroid backup there ,after installing twrp ,just restore back up backup
place the back up u need to create a folder "TWRP"
in twrp "BACKUPS"
in backups "LENOVO_A1000_MT8317"
PUT THE RESTORE FILES IN A FOLDER CREATE THE "RESTORE FOLDER" IN ABOVE LENOVO FOLDER
Hope This helps
Caution MAKE SURE TO BACKUP YOUR IMEI AND MAC ADRESS AND BLUETOOTH ADRESS
Note : Step 6 and 7 can be shortcutted by Pressing on the hard reset button while/while not connected to PC
: this will erase all data on your internal memory, so keep all the data you wanna back up in PC or External SD card and remove it (just to be safe)
ok, so
Step 1 google A1000F_A412_01_23_130822_ROW_USER, you should find it in 4shared(dot)eu
Or http://www.4-shared.eu/download/bt6fqlKPInMXDN3q7CPuW1/A1000F-A412-01-23-130822-ROW-USER.html
Step 2: once you finish downloading, extract it, then go to the FlashTool folder and look for FlashTool.exe
Step 3, once you open FlashTool.exe, Click the checkbox DA DL All with Checksum
Step 4 Now load scatter file MT6577_Android_scatter_emmc (located in A1000F_A412_01_23_130822_ROW_USER Folder, it will be the only file show other than the flash tool folder)
Step 5 now click Format> Format All partition except Bootloader > validation > ok
Step 6 Now connect your USB to MiniUSB (charger cord) to the computer but DO NOT PLUG IT YET TO THE PC
Step 7 now hold down on your Up volume button and wait 10 sec. then plug it into pc
Step 7.1 (not really) the loading bar on the bottom of SP flash tool should turn red and other difirent colors, once its finished, there should be a popup saying OK, Close it and youre done
Step 8: now Click on download, after you download, look at Step 6 to 7.1
Step 9 IF the device fails to boot, download this ( will put link to A1000F fix tool)
Step 10 press the hard reset button (besides SD card slot) or Follow Step 6 to 7.1
Step 11 Boot UP
To install TWRP 2.5 ( Found it in lenovo russian forums) (Tested the file) (worked for my IdeaTab A1000-F)
Step 12 Download From This (Direct Link) http://lenovo-forums.ru/Files/OS/Tablets/A1000/Custom/A1000T_TWRP_v2.5.0.0.zip
Step 13 Extract it
Step 14 IGNORE the included scatter file from the TWRP download (had problems with it) and follow Step 4
Step 15 On the loaded files from Scatter file, look for recovery ( 7th File), Click on it, there should be a file explorer pop up
Step 16 On the file explorer pop up, look for the A1000F_TWRP_v2.5.0.0 folder you just extracted AND then click on the recovery.img found inside
Step 17 Now Choose Firmmware -> Upgrade and do Step 10
TO ROOT WITHOUT PC (must do step 1-17)
Step 18 Boot to recovery (hold power button + up volume button AT THESAME TIME)
Step 19 You should be at TWRP recovery, Tap on Reboot>System and there should display a warning about the system not being rooted, and it should prompt you to slide to root, SLIDE IT, it should reboot automatically
Step 20 in your app drawer, look for SU installer and click on it,Your going to be prompted to innstall SU via playstore or via TWRP (i did it via TWRP bacause im lazy, and the system apps are updating, but your free to do otherwise) it should reboot, and vioala, your rooted
To Update Firmware
Step 21 Open SuperSU>settings>scroll down>enable pro (SuperSU should restart) then Open SuperSU again>settings>survival mode
Step 22 Download This (download 1) (will update to put link) and this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.mkrtchyan.recoverytools
Step 23 Open the Rashr Flasher tool you just downloaded from playstore and find Download 1 then navigate Download 1 file location (Named Recovery Folder) > Stock and tap on the recovery img
Step 24 download and install the Update from Settings>about tablet>Firmware Update (make sure you have enabled survival mode in super Su, or else you will loose root privilages)
To go back to TWRP
Step 25 just use the Rashr Recovery tool and go to download 1 file location (named Recovery Folder) > TWRP and tap on the recovery img

Well, this is my first post here as well. I uploaded some screenshots of the recovery screen, after downloading a (supposed ROM) to my external SD card from freaktab...(I can't include the link cuz I'm a noob)...just google this tablet model number and you'll find the thread with the ROM attachments.
Needless to say, the root didn't work, and I was wondering what I did wrong as well...
Nextbook 7 Premium SE (so says the generic insert that came in the box), but the model number is Next7P12-8G.
Yeah, I watched the noob video, and scoured all the threads. This device isn't even listed. Anywhere.
Don't know if these pics will help anyone, but as far as I can tell, getting to this screen is at least a start, as finding just how to put this device into recovery mode was chore in itself; to do that you must power it down, and once the device is completely powered off, hold down the power and volume control/down button (-) simultaneously until you see the update screen (in direct contradiction to what the instruction manual says- there is no "reset button" to be accessed through a pin hole)...then immediately release.
Well, good luck. If anyone can figure out how to root this thing, please let me know! Thanks!

Just download the first and third (links) on this page, as the middle one is a ROM (which is explained on the page, as only being necessary in case you have a corrupt one and need to fix it- it's not a mod). All you need is the modified recovery file and root zip file. Just read the thread, follow the above instructions (which are also located within the thread), and you'll be good to go!

question about same model number but different processors
Hi I noticed the model number for this Next7P12-8G, well I ordered one from Walmart and am expecting to get it this week. I noticed even though the model number I am getting is the same, the one I am getting has the 1GHz Cortex A9 processor instead if the dual listed above. Do you know if the rooting process would be the same as the dual? This is the efun nextbook7p12-8 that is on sale on Walmart.com right now for 64.99 or something. Has anyone tried this lately? Thanks in advance
Follow this!
Hi! I am new to this site. I have Nextbook too and its rooted. This METHOD WORKS 100%
Follow this video: goo.gl/vl0kI7
The video doesn't explain it very good, so do the best as you can. DON'T FORGET TO READ THE DESCRIPTION

My little brother had this tab and I figured it out! I am not responsible if anything happens (it hopefully won't) search kingaroot it should be some jap site, download the app that should have a phone right next to it, and that will root this device. Just uninstall the app afterward.
Anybody else having issues with touch when TWRP loads ?
I have a Motorola Moto E(XT1022). I bought it recently and just when I first started it, I got the 4.4.4 kitkat update and so I downloaded it right away. Then I realised one of the biggest problems of Moto E i.e. 2.2 gb storage. So i dug into find how to install apps on sd card and got to know that you have to root the phone. On xda, I found various ways to root but they were only for the 4.4.2 version of the phone and others were update to 4.4.4 on aldready rooted devices. Please tell me the way to root my device. Also as I am new to this, I dont understand any words like bootloader, fast recovery, etc. Please help me. Thank you in advance.
Edit: Can I use the way given by deej_roamer in his post here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2755336
Edit: I am sorry to have posted this in the general section. I don't know how to move it now to the questions section. Sorry again.
Thank You DAVI FELICANO and deej_roamer for their help. I have now successfully rooted my phone. If someone else has a problem, go to Page 2 for the solution.
You can use the defalt method, dont need to change anything.
Who told you that you need root to move apps to sd card?
Once you insert sd card you will get an option in settings/apps to move apps to sd card for those that can be moved.
This is though limited to Apks only and data is still kept in internal sd card.
If this option is not enough for you then you can go the advanced wag by rooting and using gl2sd or link2sd like apps.

You mean I can just follow the way to root if my device would have been running 4.4.2 kitkat (and as suggested by deej_roamer in his post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2755336 )
Thank you.

I know friend. I was talking about games like asphalt 8 and dead trigger which have data of size 1.5 gb because of which I wanted to root my phone. Thank you for the advice.

You can install only one game due to it's low internal memory. By one game I mean high graphics game. The obb file remains in the internal storage even after moving to SD card. I tried many things like making SD card default storage using SDK tools but to no Vail. Guess the only way now is to root it & use apps like gl2sd

I followed the thread by deej_roamer here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2755336
Try out my steps:
[Your phone battery must be at least 75%]
1. First download "Fastboot" from the thread. (Click on the "mfastboot-v2" link in the thread)
2. Next install it in a folder and remember that folder. Also, make sure you select the option of "Create shortcut on Desktop" during installation.
3. Next download CWM recovery from this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e/general/root-moto-e-rooting-flashing-recovery-t2802971 (Click on the "CWM 6.0.4.9 recovery For MOTO E" link in the thread)
4. Copy the "cwm6.0.4.9_recover.img" file to the installation folder of fastboot.
5. Next download SuperSU v2.02 from here - http://download.chainfire.eu/452/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02.zip (Click on "UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02.zip" link)
6. Don't Extract Supersu zip file.
7. Connect phone to pc. Copy the zip file to your internal memory(the directory of int. memory is /sdcard) (The directory for ext. sd card is /storage/sdcard1).
8. Remove your phone from your pc.
9. Switch off your device.
10. Turn on your device by holding power off button and volume down button together for 6-7 seconds. Quickly connect your phone to your pc.
11. The bootloader must be showing usb connected.
12. Run fastboot from your desktop.
13. Now type this (without quotes) - "fastboot flash recovery cwm6.0.4.9_recovery.img"
14. Look at the screen of device. It must be showing "Mismatched partition size (recovery)". It is normal don't worry.
15. Press volume down once (recovery will be selected) and then volume up so that it goes into recovery.
16. It will show the bootloader unlocked warning. Don't worry about it.
17. Your phone should now be in CWM recovery.
18. Don't do anything except what I tell you.
19. In this menu movement is done by the volume rockers ans selection by power button.
20. Press volume down so that "install zip" is selected.
21. Press power button.
22. Select "choose zip from /sdcard". Press power button.
23. Find the SuperSU.zip file(It will probably be in the "0/" folder)
24. It will ask to confirm install. Select Yes.
25. SuperSU will be installed.
26. Select CWM reboot. When you select CWM reboot, it will display "root access possibly lost - Fix?". PLEASE Select "No".
27. Your phone will now reboot. (The bootloader unlocked warning will be shown and then the boot animation).
28. Open your menu(in the phone) and find SuperSu app (a # symbol will be there in its icon).
29. Disconnect your device from the pc.
CONGRATULATIONS YOU HAVE A ROOTED MOTO E.
If you ever wish to flash any other recovery (like twrp),
1. Copy the file to the fastboot installation folder in your pc.
2. Then reboot your device into bootloader and quickly connect it to your pc.
3. Run fastboot from your desktop and then type the following without quotes: "fastboot flash recovery cwm6.0.4.9_recovery.img"
4. Instead of writing "cwm6.0.4.9_recovery.img" write the complete file name including extension. For eg. if file name is "twrp_recovery_2" and has extension ".img" then write "fastboot flash recovery twrp_recovery_2.img"
I hope that this solved your problem brother.

Is your recovery.img placed in the "C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot"?
It need to placed in it or you'll get an error.
Boot loader is LOCKED !! cannot be unlocked !! so no root for me ?
Hi guys,
I have a bit of a problem, but either I'm not searching correctly or I just cannot find the topic that addresses my issue.
I have a Z2 (D6503), still on Android v5.1.1 (23.4.A.1.264). It is rooted, have a locked bootloader and Z2-lockeddualrecovery2.8.26-RELEASE.combined.zip installed.
I want to upgrade to MM (23.5.A.1.291) and maintain root. I have an idea in mind of what I want to do but want to know if it will work or not; is it the right way to do it? If not, then how can I upgrade and keep root?
I also have a Xperia Z3 Compact Tablet that I successfully upgraded to Marshmallow SGP621_23.5.A.1.291 this morning using steps as followed on their forums. My plan is upgrade my Z2 using the same procedure, but with one slight addition (if needed)
In brief (not ), the Z3 Compact Tablet was upgraded as follows:
Step 1. Downloaded latest version of choice using XperiFirm v5. (I prefer the generic Swiss version)
Step 2. Created ftf using Flashtool
Step 3. Created flashable zip file using PRF Creator v1.3 but with slight variation in that the normal SuperSU zip file is not used at all;
Step 3.a. In FTF File field: The ftf as created in step 2
Step 3.b. In SuperSU Zip field: dummy_flashable.zip
Step 3.c. In Recovery Zip field: RecRootV4_combined.zip
Step 3.d. Included (ticked) options: Kernel, FOTAKernel, Modem, LTALabel and Sign Zip
No Extra Files were added and Create was clicked to create the new zip file.
Step 4. Next step was to copy this new zip file as well as the RecRootV4_combined.zip to the SD card.
Step 5. Rebooted into TWRP recovery (must be TWRP, not any other) and then went to the Wipe - advance wipe option and selected to wipe only the Dalvik Cache, Cache and System.
Step 6. Once done, don't reboot but go back to the main menu and then select to install/flash the pre-rooted zip file as created with PRF Creator. Once this install is done, again, don't reboot but select to install/flash the RecRootV4_combined.zip file.
Step 7. Once this is done, the phone can be rebooted. Once the phone is done running the upgrade setup and you can access, you will get a prompt to upgrade Google Play Services. Once this is done, you then simply search for SuperSu and install and then update binaries and reboot. And that's that...
After this the tablet was on MM, maintained all previously installed apps,settings and data and most importantly; maintained root. I want to do the same with my Z2 but with one addition. At step 6 above I want to add another zip file to install called Z2-6.0.1_570_bootloop_fix.zip (which I also copied onto the SD card in Step 4) and then proceed with Step 7
I found the Z2-6.0.1_570_bootloop_fix.zip somewhere on the Z2 forums during my searches. Not sure if this is even neede for my situation or not.
I'm also aware that there's a RICDefeat.zip in circulation but this was never called for, or mentioned when upgrading the Z3 tablet so don't know if this is needed here with the Z2 or not.
If this is a workable solution I will add the dummy_flashable.zip, RecRootV4_combined.zip and Z2-6.0.1_570_bootloop_fix.zip files if so requested.
Thank you for reading all the way to this point! Any advice, suggestions, confirmations or warnings will be greatly appreciated.
Just install one of the prerooted roms (with recovery) available here and the bootloop fix (just to be sure) then clean cache and dalvik and reboot.
You won't loose anything this way.
If you witness problems after that, you can always do a clean install by doing the same but wiping system and data before the installation of the rom.
Make a full backup in recovery before you start so that you can always roll back to your current situation.
