Hipstreet Pilot - Stock or Custom Rom - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
I've been scouring the internet and found a few ROMs that partially work with the Hipstreet Pilot I'm trying to revive. The first one I found on needroms is supposedly stock, however the screen is white on boot.
I've tried multiple others using the same MT8163 chipset and some boot, some don't, but most either end up with a broken touch screen or the accelerometer is the wrong way up.
Does anybody have one that could take a backup using spflash or does anyone have a ROM that they know might work?
Thanks!

Need rom for Spreadtrum L3035F

I came here after many days trying to fix this phone!
First, I don't know how to work with phones! It was looked due to "Too many tries to unlook it!" and was requesting to connect to one google account to unlook it.
The phone is a generic Spreadtrum SC6820 that has "i9300" writed on the space where the battery goes and its circuit board is marked with the writing L3035_MB_V2.2 and there one stick that reads L3035F-P9600-QUAD-2G-HY-V2.03.B05.
I was unable to find the stock firnware and did not know how to backup it using the ResearchDownload.exe tool available for the Spreadtrum, so I fallowed that very bad tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2320640 and I ended with it bricked!
After that, I tried to flash all the roms I could find to see if any would work but all I managed to get is a phone with inverted color scheme, inverted touchscreen, no radio, no BT and no wifi!
If anyone here has the firnware compatible with this phone, please share it, Thanks.
i got the same problam my device has a inverted touchscreen after i flashed its rom using recherche download.please help

[Q] (Probably) Bricked Galaxy S3 i9305T

Hi,
After trying to get TWRP working on my Galaxy S3 i9305T (Australian Telstra Model), I think I have bricked the device.
I manually flashed TWRP recovery from this http teamw.in/project/twrp2/146, but turns out it's international, not the Australian one, which I unfortunately only realised later. Since then, my phone has looped the loading splash screen and the recovery screen. I've reinstalled CWM v6.0.2.9 Touch successfully on it, but I can't install any roms, because the phone doesn't seem to be identifying properly.
Under another recovery software/thing, it was saying that the ROMs I had (i9305 from the official CM website) were for m3, something, something, i9305, and that mine was an 'm0.' Would anyone be able to push me in the right direction to get my phone working again? Any help GREATLY appreciated.
Cheers
Ah, I managed to fix it by flashing the stock rom over it, took a short while to find.
Edit: It was from sammobile, in case anyone comes across this thread trying to fix the same problem.

[Q] S7189 (jbla668) Display Problem after flashing Stock rom?!

Hello guys,
I have an Star S7189 Phone which I had to return to stock (the owner tried to root but failed and wanted me to get rid of the root), but now that I flashed the stock rom the Display is totally glitchy.
The Device boots fine and I can even flash a custom recovery but even there the screen is glitched. (its basically unusable right now in this state)
I have to return it (working) to the owner.. or he will blame me (understandable)...
I flashed the following rom:
http://www.needrom.com/download/star-s7189s/
because it was the only one I could find that SP-Flashtool would let me flash.. (the other roms are all for MTK6589 but this device seems to be a MTK6582 one - at least thats what SP-Flashtool recognizes it for.
When I ran CPU-Z before all this it said 6589 though.. ?!
---
Usually I manage to fix things, but in this case I'm out of ideas.
When I got the phone it had a newer Firmware Version installed than the one I got now (it was from 2014) but I just cant find any other rom for the MTK6582 model than the one above...
Another weird thing: The sticker under the Battery says Quad 1.6 Ghz - but the MTK6582 is not 1.6 GHz is it?
I really hope anyone can help please !!!!!
I either need another rom or find a way to fix the display... I already thought it might be a hardware issue because even the battery charging screen and the custom recovery screens are affected by the glitches - but it was working alright before.. (with a half assed root which was not working .. or else I wouldnt have tried to flash stock rom anyway...)
HALP!
Additional Infos:
I *think* the rom has the wrong lcd drivers or smth .. because even I can't really "see" them, there seem to be onscreen buttons for menu and back, ALTHOUGH the device has hardware buttons for that - and the old rom didnt have any onscreen buttons showing ....
Please guys, if anyone knows a bit about those MTK china stuff please think of a way how to fix this thing .. I'm really out of ideas..
I have loaded that "MDT Flash Tool" which lets you choose drivers for lcd etc.. but this damn thing does not accept the MTK6582 rom which I need to flash - with MTK6589 roms (which do not work for the device) it opens them fine...
This could be the first soft-brick that I really cant fix ........and its due to lack of files it seems..?
Any way that I could "mod" the rom to get the display working?

[Q] I have broken my Yarvik tablet!

Hi guys, i hope you can help me.
Somewhere around 2011/2012 i bought a tablet (Yarvik TAB467), one of the worst mistake of my life because it is absolutely terrible, it can hardly load a website!
Yesterday i found it lying in a closet, i decided to dust it off and see if there was a better rom for it (it had an andriod 4.0.4 install on it from 2012).
Please note that i am an absolute novice when it comes to these kind of things, but with the help of google and a youtube video i decided to give it a try.
The first thing i read was that i had to root it using something called TWRP, so i downloaded Ainol Spark since that was used in the youtube video, placed it on my microsd card and managed to get into the boot menu.
There i selected the TWRP file, installed it and after rebooting the tablet is dead. The only thing that happens is the backlight turns on, besides that.. nothing.
I can no longer access the boot menu, it also won't boot the regular way, it does not respond to usb-cables, nothing.
Is there anything i can do from this point on, besides throwing it in the dumpster?
I found people saying the tablet was similair to the Allwinner A10, since i couldn't find anything specific for the Yarvik TAB467 i decided to focus on the allwinner roms.
The tables should have a Cortex A8 processor.
Any help would be gratefull.

HDC G900F Help needed

Hey guys
Flatmate bought an HDC G900F MTK 6592 for his dad and as soon as he put a sim card in it starts giving error that com.android.phone is crashing constantly.
Looked around for ways to fix it everywhere I could think and the only solution suggested that could work is if I can somehow root + flash the recovery to put a new version of Android on it or at least flash new stock apps or something. So far though I've found no ways of doing this as the only methods I've found suggest using CWM to install but never shows how to install CWM as the phone does not have a Download Mode (it instead has "Factory Mode" which doesn't seem to let me do anything like install a new recovery unless I'm missing something).
If anyone has anything that would work to possibly fix this phone please let me know.
Any help is much appreciated.
UPDATE:
Have managed to root and flash on CWM but having trouble flashing on a ROM that will do anything but sit at a black screen.
I have used all of the roms here MTKROMS, porting them for my phone each time but still no luck, just getting black screen on boot time after time.
Help?
Where to buy this phone?
