Archos 45c Titanium, ¿Spreadtrum processor? - Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone.
Before explaining my problem, I must apologize for my english (I'm from Argentina).
I have to say I'm confuse.
My grandfather gave me a phone he didn't use (because mine died), an Archos 45c Titanium with lots of viruses (old people way of use I guess), so I tried to root with Kingo in order to clean it, but it got bootloop and it's not going further of the logo screen and stay vibrating forever. So I googled for instructions to flash it and found the stock rom (archos 45c titanium MT6572) and SP Flash Tools, MTK drivers and even ADB drivers. But couldn't manage to get my phone detected by SP Flash Tools so I started a quest searching for the right driver (and a lots of ways to clean my driver library in Win 10), but none of the older or newest versions of MTK/ADB/CDC/VROM drivers managed to detect my phone, not even by adding legacy hardware. Until I found Spreadtrum drivers that I installed with no much hope, but they worked perfectly. So I googled if there's any version of archos 45c with Spreadtrum processor (most of them say MT6572), and I found just a couple of web with specification for an Archos 45c Titanium with SC7731 Spreadtrum processor.
My question is... Is this even possible? xD Maybe I just mess up everything good in the world and now I'm hallucinating... or is it my phone really that rare? And more important, anybody knows where I can find a .pac stock rom for a device wich is suposse to be MT6572? If not, can I use another stock rom for another archos 45 Spreadtrum series?
Thank you in advanced.

How to root please?
Also, anyone know how to reflash this models firmware?
I think I stuffed 1 of them up trying to root.
Attached is a picture of the model.
Thank you. Have a nice day.
Hi there !
I have started a new thread on how to root spreadtrum devices here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2165554
May be you could find a way to root yours.
I also need you to test an idea to root them, but I'm not sure if it will work.
Because you already have a bricked one, you can try this idea without risking your device (and maybe unbrick it by doing a backup of the others one and flashing this backup on it.)
How have you bricked it precisely ?

Hi there, I recently got my hands on a Mobicel Titan, and after much unclear research, the best I can come up with is that it is a Spreadtrum SC6820a phone, hope I am on the right track. Anyway, my goal is to change the ROM on this phone as the software that Mobicel has bundled on their version of Android is way too much for the phone to handle. I have already rooted the phone using Z4Root successfully. Funny enough, the link you have is the very link I tried for the past week, I've tried ADB and Fastboot on both Windows 8 64bit and Ubuntu 12.10 64bit, and even ResearchDownload, all drivers were installed successfully, but when i try all methods to flash new ROM to the device, nothing seems to happen, even if I use ResearchDownload and follow instructions to the T, flash process doesn't start. After using fastboot to update CWM from Ubuntu 12.10, if I try to restart into recovery mode, it is then stuck on the Mobicel Logo. Is there a guide for the Mobicel Titan?

Use Snap Pea to install drivers if you do not have them already. Then make sure USB debugging is enabled on your device then try this tool:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43163569&postcount=7&styleid=18
My device had a fake MT6517 CPU in it too, MTK Droid Tools will tell you what is really in your device: (Download for MTK Droid Tools in first post)

[Q] Strange Bricked mtk6589 Note 3 Clone

Hallo experts, i've been xda reader for about 2 years now and i didn't bothered (or needed) to register. Flashed succesfully couple of phones.
My current phone however, has given my too much rage trips So here's the story:
Bought a "Alps U9000" which is a Note 3 Clone based on mtk6589 chipset.
First i made a Backup with MT Droid Tools.
Figured out and installed mt65xx vcom usb drivers.
Flashed couple of roms compatible (or not?) with my phone. First day my phone went totally black dead. But somehow i managet to get a rom that is identicall with stock, flashed and voila. Then i tried couple more similar roms.
They all worked, but after fifth or so, this is the weird thing, my touch became totally unresponsive. Nada.
Since then i tried everything and nothing helped. Bunch of different roms, MY Backup Rom, Restoring Imei,
Plugged mouse to a phone and it works like a charm, but no touch.
Can someone Help?
Hint: I flashed everything with the battery, using MTK preloader vcom driver.
When i tried whole Rom without battery pressing Vol+ it failed.
Only preloader without battery worked, and then the rest with battery worked also.
Dont know if it's relevant.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Flashing your original boot & system image ONLY back to your phone should be enough to restore it.
Don't tick other check boxes in SP Flash Tool.
help me! :C

dude I am new in the forum just like you, same situation and I have exactly the same phone, I already searched in needrom and already tryied with several roms, since the original its really really almost impossible to find, I looked everywhere seriously, if you can help me I would be so happy, I just need the link from where you find it or your backup, I know the second choice is asking for too much but with mega is not really that hard, you dont need to help me but if you do it I swear I would help other people with the same phone
what I know about this phone is that its manufactored by alps and they sell it as ulefone model:u9000, my box came with no brand-mark at all, only crap like "Its Android Phone !" quadcore cpu and other stuff
Well, if you need original rom for the device I can share with you.
I just bought another exact same one. Downloaded Rom from it with flash tool via read back option.
Flashed the faulty one with it but still it didn't worked.
System works, WiFi, BT, 3g, but no touchscreen. Only with mouse per USB i was able to test the above mentioned.
I guess I will send it back and hope for a refund or a repair because I am pretty sure the hardware is faulty.
Maybe there is some1 that knows more about mtk devices? Does the phone have only the emmc memory or is there some sort of vram that stores Calibration data for touch, imei number and so on?
After many attempts my N9002 showed signs of life. I managed to flash it with a rom N9000. The cell phone on, the screen is backlit, the samsung startup sound is heard, the back and lie buttons light up menu. But the screen goes black and shows no image.
Someone can help me?
Search for N9002 ROM's in Needrom.

[Q] Prestigio PAP5400 DUO rooting & firmware downgrading help

Hello,
I'm having a problem with rooting Prestigio PAP5400 DUO smartphone. I had recently updated it to the newest firmware and later tried to root it with various software. SRSRoot couldn't do that, tough it showed, that previous firmware was rootable, so I am asking if whether it is still possible to somehow root it or can anyone help me with downgrading, there are firmware versions to download from official support page, but no idea how to downgrade and if it's even possible. The main reason why actually need rooting is to increase RAM thrue Ultra speed SD card, since quad core and 512 Mb RAM ain't exactly the best couple... Perhaps there is somethig else do that without the RAM managment software and root acess. I don't know if 125-50 or less free RAM is normal, since the aren't a lot of apps in it, and even if i clean them, they tend to restart sometime after, I don't want to uninstall them tough, just more RAM and for that I need solutions for the previous requests. Would be good enough to know if there is an expert that can solve these problems.
Prestigio PAP5400 DUO rooting
Upgrade, don't downgrade it and use Kingo Root. Mine is v.1.0.18. Be sure that your driver is instaled properly first. I don't think you can incrase RAM because stock kernel doesn't support Swap. Anyway I may be wrong.
Good luck.
Thank you, i used VRoot and it worked, got full root, still, you are right about swap memory, the stock doesn't allow it, still the cell phone is now significantly faster and less lag occurs due the privileges of having root acess for some cell managment apps. Just be careful if using VRoot, it also seems to behave as a spyware, probably China's intension
help!

[Q] [MediaTek] Flashing preloader from another super similar model

Don't know if I should've asked somewhere else but here it goes...
The device I have is a K-Free (or K-Phone) K480 aka Karbonn Titanium S25 Klick (it has another name in the store I bought it jeez) and what I'm specifically trying to do is to boot a kernel from another phone, almost exactly the same model Gigabyte GSmart Mika M3. Both phones run on the MT6582 platform.
Both devices are nearly identical, with the exception of the front facing camera where on the GSmart it is 8MP and on mine it is 5MP (the only difference in H/W mind you) and I even have the case for it on my phone. The point is - the hardware could be considered the same thing. Then I took a look at the software side of things...
Guess what - everything's almost the same as well, down to the partition layout (scatter files identical), littlekernel (uboot) works on my phone and yet I can't boot the boot.img of it or even the OS (haven't tried too hard on copying system.img, it should've worked with the ROM I have) so the only conclusion I can make is that the preloader needs to be flashed as well which is the most scary part.
Comparing the two preloaders from each phone, the one I have is newer than the one from the GSmart and I know why exactly - the dude in the store flashed my phone since it was a "new" model lol. The OEM provided them with software for Karbonn Titanium S25 (v1.7). Other than the date, there are still some differences - at the large chunk at the beginning it is the same, some stuff is moved around and most of all the final portion is different and I assume that's for the kernel side of things, but I could be wrong. So in conclusion, a large part of it is similar as well.
The reason why I make this fuss about is because Gigabyte seems to update their devices more often for one and the second reason would be simply exploring the possibilities of what I can and can't do with my phone and finally, the third reason would be ultimately, Gigabyte provided me with kernel sources for their Mika M3 and yet nobody from K-Free or Karbonn have responded so I have to get the stock GSmart kernel running on my device anyway and I know it's possible.
I need to know one thing for sure - would this work? The only way to find out is to flash it and I am a bit skeptical to try it out. Unless there's a safe escape route (no testpoints or anything, it's under warranty), I really don't know if I'm going to try it at all. At least, if anybody knows if the device will load some preloader or USB VCOM mode if it fails, please let me know.
EDIT: Just to let you know, holding Vol Down while plugged in without battery loads the meta mode, so it may work after all. I ask people who are familiar with MTK devices to confirm if MT6582 after failed preloader will continue doing that.
EDIT2: I was a bit impatient, but hey, flashing the preloader worked! lol Now onto turning the phone into a Mika M3 completely...
EDIT3: OK nevermind it seems I have answered my questions myself. To everyone who owns this device: you can flash Mika M3 software on it. Everything works just fine.
