I tried using kingo root, both on the phone and on the computer. I am not sure where to proceed from there. The main reason I want to root is to disable the startup sound, which does not get disabled automatically when I have my phone on mute. I tried using the sound disabler app from the play store, and it seems to not be working (the startup sound still plays).
Rooting Coolpad Canvas (Cricket)
Me too having same issue as well, tried kingoroot
And king-root some got to like 30%... need help rooting it as well.. and maybe twrp would be great
But possibly could flash twrp using the coolpad's
Note 3 twrp for it, because they both have same
Resolution and screen size i believe, so for the porting shouldn't be all that hard.. any advice
Would be great..

I just ordered a coolpad canvas its coming on Saturday. I was able to root my last phone (Alcatel Onetouch Flint) which had no official guides on how to root it (so i made a guide). I might be able to do the same thing with this phone ill let u guys know if im able to root it when it comes.

Awesome!.. you won't believe how good this phone is for the price it has pretty powerful specs for the price and screen size is a whopping 5.5 inch and HD, I got mine for 49.99 when it was available at walmart luckily they had 2 left in Stock the day I went and got one.. but yeah I been trying to root it with no luck , but I'm not that good at programming when it comes to phones hopefully we can get this one rooted at least if anything .. it definitely deserves it being decently powerful phone here's the specs on it.. : https://ibb.co/ehJjtQ
Guys I was able to pull over 70% of the system files from it.. but for some reason it stops at when trying to pull WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini file for some reason-(said permission was denied)??..hmm.., I will post pic shortly..
Any luck Casey on it?.. so far nothing working for rooting it yet you may have better luck than me..

No luck yet I tried kingroot, kingo app, towelroot, framaroot and some others nothing works. Still searching for a better method
So apparently it's harder to root nougat cuz of this new security feature. I feel like one click methods not gonna work
Well I also noticed when doing command get ver all that it said secured eMMc with the little kernel bootloader I'm sure there are ways around this but its going to require some help with someone that has higher phone developing skills than of my own of course.. also try command while connected to computer "adb pull system" without the quotes it got to 72% for me before it wouldn't write no more still have the files for system if anyone needs them for rewriting or porting in the bootloader ..

Same here.. hmm , well if you or you can invite someone that maybe can port in or rewrite the little kernel bootloader to be unlocked, i have 72% of the system files.. still couldn't Figure out how to or where to extract the boot.img or recovery.img from?.. or the cache.img and the other .img files as well.. some of them or the .sh file in the system folder i extracted i believe may contain the answer?.. I'm sure for the rewriting of the bootloader but it's gonna require someone with better skills than of mine because i don't know how to rewrite little kernel bootloader image, but I'm sure for some this is a breeze though lol...
Oh almost forgot , from the building prop editor, i also managed to get the recovery key ID as well of someone knows how to port or rewrite the recovery.img, i know this will be of big help for sure this is the recovery key ID for the recovery image , i will post the pic of it shortly..

The mount points for where to pull the .img files from can't you find them by running cat /proc/mounts? These are the locations I got:
Interesting... so with these mount points I'm assuming we should be able to do something I'm sure of it considering the zte zmax pro which also is qualcomm snapdragon processor and also utilizing same procedure of sorts and they managed to make twrp for it and also root so I'm sure same here ...which they some how put it into diagnostic mode or called **DFU mode and it allowed them to flash after mounting points was made with Linux OS

So using the location I tried to use the dd command to pull system.img but it said permission denied looks like it requires root:
dd if=/dev/block/dm-0 of=/storage/emulated/0/system.img
dd: /dev/block/dm-0: Permission denied

Don't know a whole lot about development but I'm pretty comfortable with using the Android back end and I'd be willing to help any way I can if there's something I can do or provide. This is such a neat little phone and I think it has a lot of potential.
Picked a canvas up on sale at bestbuy as a back up.. I must say its a nice phone for the money...
Now I just have to wait for coolpad- cricket to release unlock codes so I can use overseas travel.

Here is a link to a TWRP build for the Redmi 4a, same exact internals as our phone. I mean the phones are exact all the way across the board. The best thing to do is to fastboot boot the .img first to see if it works 100%, and being on Nougat flash su systemless root. If it boots to TWRP from fastboot and you can flash su than we should be able to permanently flash TWRP from there. https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/recovery-twrp-3-1-0-0-xiaomi-redmi-4a-t3576024

From what you're describing it sounds like you didn't do it correctly. In the bootloader it should never ask you to sideload anything. The correct steps are, with the phone on and adb debugging enabled, adb devices, should show your connected to your phone, next adb reboot bootloader, phone will restart into a download type screen, next step, on PC type fastboot devices to see if the PC and phone are communicating correctly, next is to type fastboot boot recovery.img, if it boots into the TWRP we're good, sorry but I don't have a PC up and running right now. So all I can do is suggest and hope you guys can get it running.
Anyone check into this and the comment that's on it, don't know if it will help, but just maybe.

Don't do it, it's bull crap nothing but viruses. That srs spam link says they can root all phones, well if they could more devs on XDA would push it, but no it's a load of b.s.

I have somehow messed up my folio 100, and its BCT and bootloader information.
So im hoping someone else with little experience, knows how to use the nvflash utilities and dump the information for me and send me a link on where to get it.
the combo to get into bootloader mode is: POWER button pressed 4 times + VOL- key and it will go into bootloader mode.
I can extract these tomorrow evening.
Can you be clearer with the bootload sequence?
Tried to get the booload seq. Ended up with a partial reset of settings...

well, i dont think you should try it..!!
another user did, he ended up with a semi-bricked device too.. so thanks but now the fun stops.. it seems that Toshiba included a very,very bad key combo that terminates the device to a deadlocked machine..
so ill just figure out another way to get the partitions off it.. but my 4xpower + vol- is really scary, do NOT try it
at least until is cleared on how to get out of this bootloader state again.
I dumped the partitions which are visible from android already. Don't quite know what got resentment with your key sequence - DATA wiped? Some of the preloaded apps are broken now, but they were a bit broken before.

so you mean, you can extract all partitions from a shell?
ie. bootloader of partition2 and so forward?
i didnt notice that all 8 partitions were accessable there?
can you upload the dump of them somewhere?
A guy made the dumps of the ROM (not the recovery image though) on the forum of Frandroid DOT fr but I cannot post you the link directly here (anti spam as I do not have many messages on the forum).
I will PM you (if it allows me)

ok!
I was hoping you did it because I'm a little tired of android (apple fan ).
My idea was to build and flash linux (ubuntu 10.10 works on toshiba AC100).
But if there isn't a way to restore the factory default (bootloader, etc.), I'll give up.

when i was debugging bootloader configs, i was provided some config files that Ac100 users said would work on our folio, but i see now partition setup is very different, so we need to make proper configs for our folio before experimenting with the bootloader..
again, as you metion backup seems to do , when recover seems unavailable currently. it will be hard to verify if the parition table layout is working.
Hi,
sorry, maybe I missunderstood someting, but I cannot understand your problem in reading out the whole flash.
1. I have opened / disassembled my Filio 100. And like I have suspected there is a 16GB micoSD card connected (soldered) to the PCB and fixed with glue. One could read out the whole flash in a card reader.
2. You have fully access to the microSD card out of Android:

did i write i had problem dumping the entire mmc device? not really.
Yes, you misunderstood,Writing a proper cfg file describing the different areas is required.. dumping is easy part, documenting is harder..
but feel free to contribute and document the .cfg file for bootloader, that is of course appreciated...
I just got back from my business trip, and finally had some more time to take a closer look at the device.

The device has a warranty seal inside. If you open the device completly the seal will break. I have just opened the device soo far, that the seal will not break. To make photos I will have to open it copletly. I will think about it....

Ok, I see. I have duped the mmc and mounted the partitions on my pc:
Here is the partition table on my PC:
Code:
[email protected] ~/bin/folio $ /sbin/fdisk -u -l folio.img
Platte folio.img: 15.9 GByte, 15920005120 Byte
1 Köpfe, 63 Sektoren/Spur, 493551 Zylinder, zusammen 31093760 Sektoren
Einheiten = Sektoren von 1 × 512 = 512 Bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00000000
Gerät boot. Anfang Ende Blöcke Id System

folio.img3 2623488 2627583 2048 83 Linux (/misc)
folio.img4 2627584 31093759 14233088 5 Erweiterte
folio.img5 2628608 2644991 8192 83 Linux (???)

folio.img7 4744192 4754431 5120 83 Linux (???)
folio.img8 4755456 31093759 13169152 83 Linux (13G - storage)
Now you can mount the partitions on your pc:
Code:
sudo mount -o loop,ro,offset=$((512*2048)) folio.img /mnt/floppy/
I was not able to find the kernel or the bootloader or the root partition in the dump. I have also checked it with a hex editor.
Is the Folio using an other storage for kernel and bootloder? Does it have more NOR/NAND flash inside?
While looking at the size of the microSD (15920005120 bytes) I think that the bootloader is hiding a part of the microSD from the OS where the kernel and the bootloader are...
Where is the .cfg file you are talking about located?

its a file assoiciated with the nvflash utility. search for the toshiba AC100 or here for more details for them it works fine.
the part 5 and 7 are boot kernel(8Mbyte) + recovery kernel(5Mbyte) , bootloader is as i know from ac100 on part0 , but thats not 100% yet.

So, I have checked part 5 and 7. The content is the same like in boot.img and recovery.img. So the BCT is somewhere else...
Can someone please dump the partition mmcblk0p34 for me?
Command
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p34 of=/sdcard/misc.img
Then upload it to dropbox or something.

Hey guys, someone lend this guy a hand if you can. He has done a lot of great kernel work on the EVO Shift! I'd help you Scary but I don't have a computer here for the next few days. Are you going to be deving for the 3D now?
I'm going to do it right now.
UPDATE: Error, Error Error.....user error I'm sure. I will see about getting this for you before work, but my computer is acting a fool.
lol i just did that for you and was about to post a link to my dropbox and i remembered im unlocked...doh....sorry

What about S-OFF, is that okay or are you refering to just the HTC Unlock?
I only want an S-ON dump, so you may need temp root to grab what I want.
@Paul - Something like that, but we'll see how things go.
I'm guessing that's my error. I'm not getting full access having S-On, and my bootloader is still locked. I don't trust HTC. I'm not used to not being rooted. I'm not sure how to temp root 1.5, or if we can. I've never done temp root.
PM me. My 3D is still fully stock. If you wanna help a bit I will get it for you.
p34, that's the misc partition isnt it? Are you going to try to edit the mainver in the misc partition and try to downgrade the 1.50 Hboot? If so it doesnt work :-/ both myself and IEF from alpharev tried and it was a no go.. If you know another way, I could do you one better than just the misc partition, I can give you ssh access to my linux box and have a evo 3d hooked up to it that's s-on hboot 1.50 I just need a day or two to get my friend's from him and I can only have it for a day or two but can have it connected to the linux box non stop during that time

Basically exactly what you said, we found that out yesterday for the evo shift as a downgrade option so we could root phones that had the ota. Joeykrim had already told me it wouldn't work on the 3d, but I was still curious what was on the misc partition, I opened up the shift & thunder bolt misc partitions for the older hboot already.
Shift thread, but you already know.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1255474
Hmm, that would be nice but alas, I do not know a better way.
How much do you know about hboot? More specifically, the misc partition's FN0C strings, and the way htc & sprint sign packages, and how hboot verifies the signature.
I'm curious about the 3d's hboot before it's cracked because every single hboot version locked and unlocked has two similar strings. FN0C.
So I'm wondering if these are used in the verification or keys of some sort. For example, in RSA encryption there is public and private keys, public which encrypts and private which decrypts(I may have these backwards as it's been a very long time since I've done any encryption/decryption). So an example of practical use on sprint/htc's part would be encrypting with a key, then hboot decrypting it with FN0C. Although every encryption set of keys need to be related in some way since you can't just decrypt anything with any key. So it'd give a base to try and brute force finding the other key, or give us more information with how hboot works. Brute forcing an RSA key is generally unrealistic because of the sheer amount of time it'd take, but it'd be a fun learning experience messing with hboot.
edit: Well after a long afternoon I found out that sprint/htc takes a zip, takes it's sha256 hash and then encrypts that hash using an RSA private key, then stuffs it in the first 256bytes of the zip. Then when hboot loads it, it shaves off those 256 bytes and attempts to decrypt it using a public key.
Even disassembled hboot(Not using an arm disassembler though, couldn't find one, but an x86 one gave me an interesting output)
Doesn't look like misc has anything to do with the RSA encryption or hoot signatures though.
We did find it funny that out of 4 misc partitions on 3 different phones, FN0C showed up at the EXACT same offset, but it's probably nothing worth looking into.
So to anyone trying to decrypt this or recreate sprint/htc's signature algorithm, good luck.

The partitions between the cdma and GSM are different. And this thread is long gone...
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA
I know this thread is very old, But I didn't see the point of making a new one with one different word in the title.
Can someone with an Unlocked CDMA phone upload the misc partition to dropbox. I seem to have either a corrupted or incorrectly formatted partition.
I'm pretty sure its
Code:
/dev/block/mmcblk0p34
Or at least thats what all the errors point me to that.
Code:
E/STT:mtd ( 7738): mtd_open(): cannot find MTD partition [misc]!

Hello,
I think this is a hard one for you.
My unrooted Nexus 4 (Android 4.3) worked perfectly fine until the day I (randomly?) lost the signal (couldn't make phone calls or browse the internet ). I thought, hey that's not too bad, make a restart and it will work again.
Well instead of booting again it was stuck in a bootloop. So I reflashed stock 4.3, again bootloop, I tried to flash CM, bootloop, I cleared caches/wiped files constantly with twrp and CWM. Then finally I flashed stock 4.2, hey it booted!
But I had no IMEI number, nor a baseband version! So I flashed several baseband versions, neither worked (the bootloader-start screen showed the flashed versions though!).
So far I am searching for a solution all over the internet on how to restore the IMEI without a backup! Is there any hope for me? I have the IMEI number and tbh from my understanding this number has to be saved somewhere in hardware as well.
Any help appreciated!
- David
Btw. update from 4.2 to 4.3 -> Bootloop.
Just flashed 4.4 and it bootloops.
Ok, new idea, but I need your help for it.
What if I can restore my IMEI based on one of your "m9kefs1.img"? Can anyone provide me a working image of "m9kefs1.img", "m9kefs2.img" and "m9kefs3.img", this would be awesome!
hi...im having the same issue ...i tried almost everything without luck... i was thinking why google developers wont give us a solution for those who are outside the U.S. ...cause its real pain in the a** trying to send it to their service.
Same problem

News
I saved my "m9kefs1.img" & "m9kefs2.img"!
They are 2 files of 780KB with a lot of information, are they corrupted?
The problem are not the "files" in /dev/block but the contents of these 2 files:
Code:
m9kefs1 (/dev/block/mmcblk0p8)
m9kefs2 (/dev/block/mmcblk0p9)
I don't know if they are corrupted, because I can't compare them to mine, which are definitly broken.
News? On eBay I found an engineering sample with a "Repair EFS" program, where can I download it?
Thanks!

follows the link of Stock Moto X4 ROM with Android 7.1.1 and September patch.
Model: X4 (Payton)
Version: NPW26.83-34-0-1
https://rsdsecure-cloud.motorola.co...ubsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
The linked page shows a error, will be better if you can upload the file.
Yeah, link is borked. But I may pull it anyway... will post here if I do.
Had my XT1900-1 (Project Fi) for about an hour before I got bored and the bootloader was unlocked.
Thinking of rooting just to debloat (don't get me started on how bloated the Android One build is)... seems like root will be pretty straightforward given that unlock is painless and partition access seems unrestricted. Haven't tried yet, but thinking that just perms and pushing su might do the trick. Would like to have the device for a couple days before I go that far. [edit: Actually, Magisk looks like a pretty good bet w/o custom recovery... may try that]
Then maybe, if I have time start gathering vendor stuff/blobs/etc and build... something.
Anyone else out there tinkering yet?

I heard that the reason for the bloat is due to a huge number of partitions that consume space. As such, debloating may not be as easy as you hoped...

Looks like the OP file was a leaked Brazilian version of the firmware... wonder if the boot.img is the same as US ?
And also looks like Motorola may be giving each variant of the device its own device name... not sure if this will be good down the line, development-wise, or not:
ro.product.name=payton_fi
ro.product.device=payton_sprout

So is it because of project Treble that we have such large system partition. Using 13 GB is too much.

Is this the partition scheme for Treble? If so, I'm fine with this personally, as it means they have thought ahead to help future-proof the phone (if there is such a thing).
I was seeing users in other threads saying it takes 16-18GB. That's just ridiculous. It should be half that, at most. My brand new install of OS X 10.13 High Sierra doesn't even take up that much space.

My custom OS on Nexus 5X took little more than 4 GB. Even if it was project treble (which is not confirmed yet BTW) it should not take more than 9 GB or 10 GB max. Mine out of the box it was 13 GB and something which is ridiculous)

I don't think anyone got it here... I saw it bouncing around a couple Brazilian servers, but not open to download. Now that I look, it is the same Build # as the Project Fi version. So, hopefully it will turn up somewhere.
Seems the link in the OP is not dead, just goes to a secure server. It was originally posted on some G+ feeds, but no one has mirrored it yet, apparently
Actually, looks like that whole server is down right now. Every URL returns the same XML error. So maybe it will come back to life soon...
Oh, look at that... Moto has either geo or ISP restrictions on their download! VPN Proxy through server in Los Angeles, and download is running (sloooooowwwly).
Will update tomorrow morning.
UPDATE: Download died at 1.1 GB and the VPN workaround is no longer working. Grrrrr. Could probably extract boot.img anyway, but with no way to check the hash and no images to fall back on, too risky to actually patch/flash it
Got it... well, I have a completed download -- Obviously there is no way to verify the file since I have no MD5/SHA to check against. That said, the archive opens without errors, so I have boot.img now, just not enough stupidity to modify it and flash an unverified firmware back onto a brand new device.
Have a mirror uploading, will share when complete and maybe can get added to the OP.

Unlock is just a regular Motorola unlock... lot of threads on how that is done.
Root is a little more risky and complicated to explain here. The first thing we all need is a trusted factory image -- hopefully the one above is just that. I would suspect that once we confirm a factory image, root methods will be plentiful.

Also, if you wish to try a direct download from Motorola, this link may work... it is a proxy download through NordVPN. Again, no guarantees and no way to verify (though if you end up with the same SHA256 as above, there is good chance the file is intact).

I downloaded it via the proxy and have the same checksum as you, so at least this means that your download is *probably* not corrupt. I don't have the device, so I'm certainly not going to flash it.

Thank you kindly! I downloaded again as well with same checksum, so I think we can assume the file is intact.
Rooted T-Mobile varriant.
Couldn't get Boombox to load.
Realized it is not supposed to work for my phone.
Went into TWRP.
Started a format on pretty much everything I could select.
4 hours later into my exfat format, I start thinking, yeah, this is... not... this is too long. I've destroyed it. SO, just to be sure it was a paperweight, I turned it off. Mid format... of every selectable partition in TWRP.
So anyway, it boots to fastboot now, and if I try to boot it into download mode, it starts TWRP but never loads. I put TWRP on my LAF partition as the root guide for H932 recommended it. The irony.
I CAN use ADB when I attempt to get the phone into download mode. Again, it does not actually have download mode, but instead a broken TWRP that never actually loads. The CLI TWRP found in sbin also will not actually start either.
If anyone could help me repartition this back to the point where I flash normal boot.img/system.img/recovery.img etc, well that would be, a godsend.
I will do, or answer any questions.
I do not know linux, but despite behavior that warrants wearing a helmet when I leaving the house, I promise I am competent enough to fix this, with some help.
Thanks people

If ADB is indeed working, have you tried reflashing twrp to the LAF n' seeing if that does anything to get you back to a working recovery?
ls -al /dev/block/platform/soc/1da4000.ufshc/by-name
send output of this with adb shell

By exfat format, what do you mean?
the easiest would be to adb dd / push the laf partition back and work with it then, means: write laf, boot into dl mode, flash kdz. should work :good:
btw: which recovery version do you use? for determining which partitions were erased.
next time: formatting *only* needed for the main partitions, which are boot (not formattable) and system. don't touch any other partition mext time pls (at least in terms of formatting)
I don't have time to post the details, but right now you can fix your phone using dd. If you wipe out what you currently have thinking download mode will save you .. it might, but it might not and then you are stuck.
Gimme a bit to type up exactly what you need to do before you make it worse.

wow, so many partitions.
anyways, the "HIDE" button or use of HIDE tags is how you create spoilers and the pound sign or CODE tags is for code:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

Reading titles is fun. It says "I'm the big dumb" right at the top. Notice the "I'm" that stand for "I AM". Translation: I'm not blaming the dev for anything, I AM THE ONE WHO DID THIS, THE ENTIRE POST OUTLINES MY STUPIDITY. The ironic part is I flashed over the download mode. Ya know, the one that lets you plug it into the computer and simply reflash with LGUP. If download mode was on the phone, this post wouldn't exist. End of story. I fully agree with his recommendation to have it on there, which is why I did it. The FACT, that it turned out to be the thing holding me back from fixing the phone was IRONIC.

You're awesome, thanks!
I reported my own thread because I did not realize I cannot simply delete it myself. Do you know how to get this post deleted? I fixed the problem, but to be honest I can not remember all of the steps I took to do so. If someone finds themselves in a similar situation it might be nice to have this thread here, but as far as I am concerned I can be removed.

This is what I did! This works!
TWRP-3.2.3-7-DataIMG.img was the exact recovery used.

I went into the wipe tab of TWRP and thought it would be a super idea to select everything I could, then change the file system to exFAT.
I'm... not sure what in the world I was hoping to actually accomplish with this. I had it in my head that If I formatted everything to one format, then back to the original, It might be a quick fix to my never booting custom rom.
It was not quick, and it was not thought through.

I did try that, It did not work.
What seadersn outlined in his post is route I took to repair. Quite simple actually, I just did not really know what I was doing.

There is nothing wrong with pointing out differences of opinion over flashing duplicate/redundant TWRP to over the partition that has download mode and thus deletes download mode. I disagree with doing that, as do some developers in this forum. Not going to bother posting quotes, as I'm not starting an argument. Has been discussed in depth in the TWRP thread. However, other respected people recommend it, and they have their reasons. Looking the history of that suggestion, it really seems to be tied to T-mobile variants for reasons I don't wish to delve into here, but which I concede may be relevant to those T-mobile models.
Regardless, in my opinion it's not needed for most people and then when you DO suddenly need download mode, it's not there. The opposite point of view is "If you have TWRP, why would you ever need download mode?" I can think of a few instances... and their response would be, "Then (if/when you need it) re-flash the partition to get download mode!"
So, it's up to the users themselves to determine the priority of their needs and what likelihood will be for disaster recovery, one way or the other -- needing extra copy of TWRP vs needing download mode. There's no right or wrong answer.
