Hey guys,
i need your help. Since a few days i cant activate the wlan toggle on my phone. I didnt do anything, just deactivated wlan, and couldnt activate it again. After searching for solutions, i found out that its a relatively common problem, and that my bluetooth also does not work.
If i understood it correctly, i need to flash the persist.img from a fastboot rom to the persist partition. The problem is i cant do that, since my phone is still locked. When trying to unlock it, i get the error code 20091.
I also tried to to modify the flash_all.bat with persist like i have seen in an other tutorial. Then flash it witch the mi flash tool.
This also didnt work.
Then i installed twrp 3.02 zcx to get root, to delete the data/misc/wifi folder and the persist folder. This didnt work out too.
I read a lot of posts in the redmi note 3 forum, but there are a lot of dead links to the official forum.
Writing this topic this forum shows me similar threads from other phones. I will look into that now.
But maybe someone of u had the same problem, or can give me some tips to progress?
Thanks in advance and sorry for my english

Wifi and Bluetooth dead is common issue for miui users on kenzo.
Its permanant damage. U cant re activate it using hacks.
It happens when u regularly updating miui rom using system updater.
Its really not safe to update miui using ota update on rn3. Its safe to use pc for new miui rom.
Kenzo users who stayed on miui rom and updated miui regularly using updater faced this. And Those who moved to custom roms long back dnt have this issue.
Thank you for you answer,
even if it wasnt what i wanted to hear. Can u tell me if its only a problem with older devices like the rn3, or will i face the same problem if i buy a newer device like rn8 for example?

New devices are treble based phones. Also good optimized battery friendly.
Ya. U can buy rn8. But buy only snapdragon processor phone. mediatek is crap. Doesnt have custom roms.
Rn8 is SD.
Rn8 pro is mediatek.

Hi,
This phone is brand new and is the WCDMA version of the Golden Warrior. Best value 4G and spec available in mu opinion.
I had the phone delivered to the UK today from China.
I can't for my life root the phone using any method. I also tried to flash the TWRP from china but no luck. Just goes to the original recovery.
It doesn't come with Gapps which is what I am trying to load.
Anyone can help to translate a rooting/recovery from this forum please? http://bbs.lenovo.com/a8
Actually I managed to flash the recovery and can now root
try flash

You have to flash the recovery twice in a row. There is root and gapps in the same forum.
You need to use Google Translate if you can't read chinese.

Can you upload the files and send us the links?
The files I am downloading from the Chinese website are corrupted.
(also if possible to give guide on the chinese TWRP, and what to do with it).
Also it will be very helpful if you could send the exact URL to the Root guide
and the exact URL for the how to install gapps guide.
Thank you.
I'll be needing this in a few weeks, I ordered one yesterday. Coming from an iPhone too, so it'll be a bit different for me, I wanted a cheap powerful 4G/LTE handset and this seemed to fit the bill quite well.
the phone ain't really that great, my piece has at least one dead pixel, shiny slippery back is just horrible (waiting to buy as soon as possible some replacement), headphones output is just horrible with constant noise/hiss not possible to listen unless you are deaf (compared to zero noise in TCL S950), brightness of display is quite weak (again compared to TCL S950) and let's not forget heavily customized Androd 4.4.2 with tons of crappy Lenovo software (unlike Coolpad F1 which has AOSP Kit Kat), but at least after root you can disable the evil Lenovo app Security which will try to make you commit suicide (btw. don't upgrade it, unless you speak Chinese, since Lenovo engineers are so amazing they can't even provide English from within the update and let's not forget horrid English localization in general and missing any other languages than Chinese and English)
here I wrote review of my new Lenovo A8 aka A806 (WCDMA/FDD-LTE) Golden Warrior bought for 111EUR (shame there is nothing available in better body with normal sound even if I would be willing to pay 20-30% extra for design and better sound) and tutorial HOW TO ROOT LENOVO A806/A8 it with links provided (I am using URL shortener service since XDA won't allow me to link my own tutorial because apparently I am spammer when I wanna help other people):

Oh, yeah and thank you so much XDA for using Recaptcha which is blocked in China, it makes posting anything useful soo much easier from within China.
I reuploaded mtk fladh tool + twrp recovery with img and scatter file to bunch of international mirrors, link to them is in my review and howto root tutorial on my blog linked in my post above. Whole ZIP package is misding only USB driver which is not rrally necessary and its on plenty of websites to dpwnload.

Thank you PeterMarkoff !!
Can you explain me in stage 1: what is "+ choose MTK_AllInOne_DA.bin"? I didn't understand what it is and I didn't see this file anywhere else.
Thanks again
I am sorry but because of Recaptcha I must post from mobile (where I have free proxy only for few mins), so can't write long posts and they are full of typos, if you have questions better write on my blog.
Open MTK flash tool, change language to ENG which should there already as well in Settings/General/Download "DA DL All with checksum" should be checked. Then just choose as Download-agent MTK Allinone DA bin which is supplied together with MTK flash tool and Scatter-loading file choose alston_fddopen which is in TWRP Recovery folder. Whole process of flashing 2 times is quite straightforward, only major thing which needs to be said is that battery needs to be removed to completely shut down phone (and do this also when phone starts automatically booting after successful flashing), otherwise it didn't worked for me no matter how many times I successfuly flashed phone there always stayed original Lenovo recovery.
In this Chinese thread you have picture tutorial in first post which is selfexplanatory even in Chinese:
bbs lenovo com/a8/t402705/ (replace missing spaces with dots)
Hahah, I see the guy added also photos for Chinese TWRP for international users, since he saw my posts there. Not sure what is possible to see wihout registration to forum. Here is my screenshot how it should look after successful flashing when you can remove battery and do it for 2nd time and then after 2nd time boot into TWRP recovery.
oi57 tinypic com/2z8tix0.jpg (replace missing spaces with dots)
Btw. yesterday I already tried Xposed, but it informed me that A806 is running probably Aliyun OS (CN crap) fork of Android so it's not recommended to install Xposed to avoid bootlops and other things, which I am not missing since it's similar situation with TCL S950 my wife has, she can't run anything higher than Xposed 2.3.1 otherwise it would end up in bootloop, but at least it seem like proper Android and not some Chinese fork.
Special thank you goes out to my Slovakian friend who lives currently in China. You totally nailed it with your tutorial.
Thanks again to you Markoff :good:
a808t
A have a8 golden warrior but td-scdma version. Is td-scdma hardware related or software? Can I flash a806 firmware with a808t unit? Ty in advance
No, you CAN NOT flash A806 firmware into A808T and vice versa, they are different. But there are actually tons of A808T ROMs on Chinese websites, much more than for A806 which is not that popular option in China. You should also know that 3G and 4G in your phone will work ONLY in China, everywhere else in world you have just 2G phone even without 3G.
ic. Is there a custom recovery in english for a808t/a806? The one I saw the that site is chinese
Sent from my GT-N7100 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Im hoping that there's any kindess developer would come out with a stable cm rom for A806

Hi guys!
I have problems with my p70-t, maybe here somebody can say something how to solve it.
I try to install a custom or p70-a ROM on the phone but after spendig days on trying without any success I have no idea how to. Cant't even update (official) via cable because it exits with failure at the end (I did some ROM installing before on other devices so I'm not newbe). After buying I realized the p70-t is for chinese domestic market, so I have no 3G network in Hungary and have (had) a lot of chinese apps. In its present form the phone is far from good...
Is anybody knows here how to or have experience with this phone?
Thanks

Hello.
I had similar problem and found some solution.
First you need to unlock OEM, that is under Developers Options.
After that you should be able to flash it with SP Flash tool or using fastboot method for recovery flash.
Regards.
I recently bought a HAFURY UMAX made by Cubot and i've been trying to find a way to root it and install a custom recovery. I've tried most of the methods that I could find on google like Kingroot, etc.
I haven't been able to find anything compatible because its a pretty obscure phone.
Any help would be awesome!
No information yet
I have been searching for this since my phone arrived and there's no clue about rotting it yet. Maybe installing another ROM but I'm not into cooking ROMs yet.
root software -- Cubot max <-> Hafury Umax
You can find a rooting software for Umax here. It woks on Max and Umax (URL is without :// for I am not allowed to submit URLs)- http guideroot.net/cubot-max-download-android-8-0-o-firmware-nougat-7
Best regards
Axel
I also need root for this device. Is there any kind people who can port twrp? Any help would be most appreciated thanks

TWRP: https://www.needrom.com/category/cubot/max/
After flashing TWRP you could then install Magisk which will give you root.
Have you managed to unlock your bootloader (although it is not necessary to install TWRP using SP Flash Tool) ?
Thank you for your help however the link you posted is for a cubot Max and I need twrp for cubot hafury umax. I don't think the twrp would work for the umax? As I think they have different chips mine is MT6580 and the max is MT6753A
Tried every app for rooting with no success.
I have downloaded every app and program that claimed to root nougat devices (RootKHP too, but it's just a bad coded virus) and I haven't been lucky yet. I have also done the "manual method"(adb push and then moving those files to /system) but this phone it's not exploitable in that way either. Maybe, compilling TWRP and installing it is the key, but HAFURY doesn't give any help to do so (as usual). I sent them emails, asking for help because of the bugs and also asking for the ROM itself. No luck. They claim to be preparing an update or something that will be released in the official cubot forum... but in that forum there isn't any entry about this phone.
Looks like HAFURY will not give a damn and, probably, will shut down in a time. They KNOW that this phone works faulty ( touch-screen problems, Wi-Fi unstable), but they are not doing anything.
I will not buy another phone from them nor from a chinese manufacturer. I have learnt.
I will try to buy a One Plus One as soon as I have money.
I too sent an email asking about an update and this is the reply I received. Dear Sir/Madam,
Sorry there is no update in the near future, the schedule of it has not been connected, you can keep an eye on our forum, thanks!
So it looks like cubot don't care about there customers
There is an update ROM on cubot forum.
Now we have access to ROM an recovery maybe we cud compile twrp?
What I found so far about the Update
As Stumbag said a couple of days ago, Cubot released an update for the HAFURY UMAX. I downloaded it as soon as I found it and, first of all, don't expect nothing. The only change I noticed is the build name, everything else is like the older version. The Wifi is still unstable, the touchscreen still requires to lock and unlock for working fine when it doesn't detect the touches and still, no root for this phone. I searched for a way to root a ROM before installing it but no luck yet. Also, I extracted the system.img and I haven't found weird packages, as I said, there's nothing different from the older build. What I noticed is a weird file called "recovery_rootcheck.bin" allocated in /data/ that contains other 3 files but I cannot read them properly. Screenshots included:
The location of the file: //i.imgur.com/FW9VAKi.png
The code of the file: //i.imgur.com/mNSpCgW.png
I dumped the older ROM before installing the new, but I am not sure I have done it well but, anyway, I have the dump file.
I will keep searching a way to compile TWRP but I have zero experience on compilling so I don't think I will archieve it.
So, CUBOT has released the ROM as an Update.
Guys. I did it. I compied a TWRP Recovery for the HAFURY UMAX. It works but the stock recovery is being reinstalled after a reboot. Tomorrow I will fix it and I will write a tutorial for installing TWRP and a rooted ROM I did. It's slightly different from the stock ROM (I removed bloatware, deodexed every package, zipaligned, changed the bootanimation and a few more things for making the phone truly free). The ROM is being uploaded to my GDrive right now.
Expect a new Thread tomorrow about installing TWRP and this Custom ROM.
Well done nekuake ?
Could you point me in the right direction for the twrp? Thanks
It doesn't work yet.
It doesn't work. The TWRP I compiled doesn't recognize the phone's partitions. I'm waiting for the reply of HAFURY/CUBOT, because if they send me the device tree, it would be quite easy because I know what to do next.

They didn't give a damn. Now, I am working in other things (university and that stuff). As soon as I have time again, I will try to use another device tree and adapt it to this phone.
Also, you shouldn't have bought this phone. You will see a lot of bugs that WON'T be fixed. HAFURY/CUBOT have a ridiculous support.

I've tried to use ported 6580 TWRP 3.1.1 and TWRP from Cubot Rainbow 2, it doesn't cause any bootloop but doesn't seems to work either
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/twrp-unofficial-custom-recovery-mt6580-t3505687
https://www.needrom.com/download/twrp-3-1-0-jemmini/
Both use the same mediatech however, I have no ****ing idea how to boot in TWRP, I've tried the **cubot max (DO NOT TRY)** that used something else then MT6580 and it gave me a bootloop, soo whoever said Max equal with UMax **** him
I'm trying other TWRPs
Well, i haven't tried to compile TWRP again because Cubot/Hafury doesn't want to give me any of the files I requested (as I though). I will mirror the repo of OMNI and, well, pray a little the next time I try to compile it.
For the moment, I have tried to use any of the TWRPs there are in the Internet of similar phones. They haven't work. The phones I tried were Infinix Hot 5 and Infinix Hot 5 Lite. Please, people, try things like I'm doing and we will have TWRP and Root soon.
Hi IV tried doogee X5 and some others but haven't worked I will keep trying come on peeps we can do this
Hello everyone,
Im new to this forum. I have been searching all over internet and browsed this forum too but can not find one clear and simple answer/solution for changing Oppo Find X Chinese version to global ROM. Some say its easy to do and others say it can not be done!! I have also seen a video on Youtube a man doing this but not sure if its actually true or fake one!!
The Rom in my phone is PAFM_11_A.35 ColorOS V5.2.1 Kernel 4.9.65
So my question is: Has anyone a guide(link) how to do this or is it possible at all? I just want to get rid of this annoying Chinese apps and features pre-installed on my phone.
Thank you
Hi Newbie,
I am telling you, there's no way to do that.
OPPO is sucks.
Hi thanks for your answer, but would you explain yourself a bit more why its not possible or point me to some article that clearly says it can not be done.
Some people say they did it and it works but some say it can not be done. What does it depend on as im lost now.
I also have a find x, I am waiting for my account to reach 60 days, then I will try to unlock the Bootlader with the deep test app, I already have the recovery twrp.img on my pc.I hope that with the custom recovery I will be able to install the firmware global

1. Google how to unlock yout find x bootloader
2. Your bootloader is unlocked ( normally will take you 1 month)
3. Install Twrp on your phone
4. Flash the Euro rom , and you will find out "error 7"
5. Sell your phone

No, you cant , oppo encoded all the rom.
You will receive a error 7 message via twrp, telling u the rom is locked
so,should i sell my oppo again? no way to install the global firmware?
the last chance is to try the Resurrection Remix ROM for Oppo FIND X,i have founded it on google
since there's already a thread requesting the persist img,
here i am requesting the HD1910 persist since my persist partition (maybe) is corrupted while reverting back to stable from open beta via fastboot ROM flash..
i did try the OP8pro method to solve the issue but it didnt work
and some people have told me foreign persist wont make fingerprint work even that makes other sensors to work properly..
but as m so desperate that i want to try it anyway even it doesnt fix the fingerprint flashing foreign persist..
so please someone with onplus 7T pro H1910 backup your persist and send me..i want to give it a try even if it doesnt work..
dumping samsung for oneplus is making me regret and so furious that it will be tha last oneplus for me..
and here is no customer service in my country for the reference, i cant take it to the service
thanks in advance

Hi guys,
So I flashed ColorOS 12.1 closed beta on my phone today and I rolled back to OOS 11 because ColorOS was so buggy and I can't use it as a daily driver on my phone. But the thing is, when I was on OOS 11, all the sensor was reversed and I needed to flash via fastboot a "persist.img" and after that everything worked fine except for the fingerprint sensor wich doesn't work anymore because of that and I think it's because I flashed a wrong image of that persist thing.
So I don't know what to do now and I tried so many thing to enable again the FID.. if you guys have any solution, just tell me :/
(Sorry for my bad english btw)
