I have problem while I am updating my GARMIN-ASUS M20's Firmware (abi) - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have problem while I am updating my GARMIN-ASUS M20's Firmware (abi).
My M20 cellphone was bought in Continental China, and I want to update to the Hongkong Chinese Firmware.
I have got the Hongkong Chinese Firmware file (.abi) and I use USBLoader in WINDOWS XP, it shows:

The only thing that I can offer - read Russian forum http://asusmobile.ru/board/viewtopic.php?t=21995 using Google translate. Remember that you can see attachments in the first post with flashing instruments only if you're registered. You free to ask there in English - we will answer.

mtty is made for HTC devices. Atom is made by Quanta. I've been looking for the same tool myself. have you tried putty? If I'm not mistaken, you are trying to reformat the DOC? or upgrade the device thru mtty?
I have looked into the things we can upgrade from SDCARD flashing, and DOC.IMG is one of the option. I think this will change the format of DOC. One way to get a copy of this DOC.IMG is to dump the ROM thru SDCard using buzz romdumper64.
Please let me know of your developments.
Phone in bootloader, i am try dump rom. if plug phone with USB mtty doesn't see phone. if use command 'r' phone write message Format DOC.OK
Sorry for my English.
This experiments with the MTTY.

Have you tried buzz grab_it ROM dumper? it worked perfectly well with the Atom. It dumped everything to SD Card. You just have to break it apart and identify the sections.
For the Atom:
diskimg.nb0
eboot.nb0
dm.nb0
flash.img
agent.mot
mot.mot
cpld.img
assetinf.img
extended.img
MDOC.img
what particularly interest me is MDOC.img because I believe we can change DOC format with this.
our device have 192 mb rom, i or Alex_beda try this dumper today
This dumper not working.
Message in the screen "cannot create file!"
Using the miniSD 2 GB Kingmax
May be need to use mini SD less 1 GB?
Or using any other dumper?

you have to modify the name of SDCard. It is named "memory card" in your device. the program looks for "Storage Card". Search this value using registry editor.
"Folder"="\Storage\Card"

Your ROM chip size is 192MB. BUT I think, your ROM system size is only 64mb. Same as ATOM. The rest is only persistent storage, extended partition, and checksum partition.
to verify, you can pdocread the memory layout of your device. don't forget to install the RAPI before pdocread; otherwise, it will not work.
my ELF's mac address may be lost
every times, when my elf restart,
a document named HTCExcpthLog_mmdd_hhmmss.txt will be build in SDcard at \storage card\HtcLog\
mmdd_hhmmss is the restart time.

BugFix: XDA ATOM WM6 AKU0.3.0 CHT (original from jiggs)

Fix:
- Input Types: (注音) + (倉頡) + (手寫) + (全螢幕手寫) works with no doubt
- relpllog.exe error exixts if 手寫(mboxcht.dll) is called, i dunno why, have checked so many versions from ATOM LIFE to ATOM AKU2.2....still finding. But I think 全螢幕手寫 is good enough.
- Finally I am able to change the program links in the initflashfiles.dat to unicode 16
- SMS issue: If you have SMS issue, please go to phone - options - service and check the SMS default gateway number, for HK it is +8536800852 somewhat like that, just change it to the number your operator provided.
Programs added:
- Total Commander
- Regedit
- pBar
- 1 extra IME is hidden (CHS 併音), a registry hack need to apply in order to activate this IME

Hi dcoloane
It seems the CHT input doesn't compatible with the WM6 WWE version so is possible to rip the original CHT handwriting file to be cab let us try this ????
Or just translate the CHS 0.4 to CHT is much faster to solve the problem ?

Interop-Unlock Lumia 800 plus bootloader and NAND access [Q&A]

*Updates*
Added ROMs & updated Links and Q&A - 21/04/2012
Updated Links - 16/04/2012
Now is possible to downgrade Nokia bootloader to Qualcomm one on the Lumia 710 More Info - 15/04/2012
Questions & Answers
Q: I've a Lumia 800 or 710 can I Interop-Unlock it?
A: The short answer is yes if you have a Lumia 710 - you must firstly downgrade your bootloader - and "maybe" for the Lumia 800, because only some of them can be Interop-Unlocked at the moment.
Q: I've got a Lumia 710 how can I downgrade my bootloader to the Qualcomm one?
A: You must flash this firmware with Nokia Care Suite (mirror splitted in two parts: Part1 Part2)
Q: Cool how can I discover if I'm a lucky owner or not?
A: For first go to "Settings -> About -> more info" and if your "Hardware revision number" ends with 2.4 you are probably screwed out.
Q: I've got 2.4 hw rev how can I check eventually?
A: You don't need to check if your hw rev is 2.4 and your Lumia came with firmware 11500 or higher you have the new nokia bootloader.
Q: I've got 2.3 hw rev how can I check if I'm eligible?
A: If you've got hw rev 2.3 but you have flashed your device with a firmware 11500 or higher - flashed mean with Nokia Care Suite because Zune doesn't update your bootloader - you have the new Nokia Bootloader; if you want eventually to check see below "check if my device is interop-unlockable".
Q: So at the moment which can be interop-unlocked?
A: As for now can be interop-unlocked hw rev 2.3 with firmware version 11141 or below.
Q: I've got the NOKIA DLOAD can I put the Qualcomm bootloader?
A: Yes but ONLY if you have a Lumia 710, on the 800 is not possible at the moment.
Q: Can I get the Qualcomm bootloader by downgrading my Lumia ?
A: No, you can't flash the Qualcomm bootloader with a backup, as explained here.
Q: I have interop-unlocked my Lumia but now I can't access Windows Live services!
A: You can find your solution here.
Q: I've got the NOKIA DLOAD how can I flash my device?
A: You can ONLY flash your device with Nokia Care Suite.
Q: I've got the Qualcomm bootloader how can I flash my device?
A: You can ONLY flash your device with Qualcomm QPST.
The Story so far: Nokia Interop-Unlock plus bootloader and NAND access
As many of you may have seen our beloved user biktor_gj found firstly that some Lumia 800 and 700 have Qualcomm unlocked bootloader that expose the entire nand of the device as removable media and permit to read write it. This discover lead to make custom rom as you can easily write raw data back to the NAND with dd linux - or any unix like variant - with the modifications for gaining Interop-Unlock.
As for now we have a tested Lumia 800 Rom that lead us to a Interop-Unlocked Lumia 800, pay attention that the devices, as stated Heathcliff74 here, is not fully rooted and need more patching.
Check if my device is Interop-Unlockable
Shut down your device
Hold pushed VOL + and POWER
Plug into your USB, you will hear a short vibration
If you are running Windows it will ask to format an USB drive, say no!
if you are running Linux you will se something like this:
Code:
[ 655.912077] usb 2-2: new high speed USB device number 9 using ehci_hcd

then you can Interop-Unlock your Lumia with one of the following ROM:

CAUTION: these images AREN'T TESTED. Use at your own risk.
PLEASE DO A FULL BACKUP OF THE NAND BEFORE PLAYING AROUND
if you want to flash this is the procedure on linux:
dd if=./os-new.nb of=/dev/sdX9
Where X is the disk detected by your linux distribution.
After that, you'll need to hard reset the phone:
Hold Power button for 10 seconds to exit Qualcomm's disk mode, and press and hold POWER+VOLUMEDOWN+CAMERA until you feel the phone vibrate.
After that, RELEASE power button but KEEP HOLDING volume down + camera for five or more seconds.
This will trigger the hard reset.
If when you plug your device and you see NOKIA DLOAD for now your out of luck because your bootloader is locked and you can't flash the roms above.

NOT INCLUDED:
Partition #5: contains product code and stuff from phone, 64kb
Partition #4: Extended partition container for partitions 5-9
Partition #9: Cannot post that enormous partition, 15Gb in size (but should be enough with the dumped os).
LUMIA 800 FLASH FILE SYSTEM LAYOUT:
Partition Begin End Blocks ID
/dev/sdb1 * 1 1000 500 4d Initial Bootloader - SECBOOT
/dev/sdb2 1001 4000 1500 46 Second stage loader? - OSBL, also looks like it has the download mode and seems to init LCD, enable USB etc.
/dev/sdb3 4001 304000 150000 c W95 FAT32 (LBA) - Writable partition with EMMCBOOT, AMSS etc.
EMMCBoot is responsible for loading Windows Kernel (nk.exe). I got a copy of Samsung Galaxy i9001's emmcboot.mbn, and putted it in there. It tries to start, but seems to crash (expected). But hey! it tries to boot it (it even vibrates for 1/10 of a second), so getting something else (did anyone say...android?)running on this phone should be easier than in lots of other phones... Does anyone have u-boot ports for Qualcomm 8255?
/dev/sdb4 304001 31037579 15366789+ 5 Extended partition which holds the OS
/dev/sdb5 304006 304133 64 ef EFI (FAT-12/16/32) - Linux detects it as an EFI partition, but it's just 64Kb size, and seems to have some markers, not sure yet what it is, but could be anything from IMEI and simlock to an actual efi partiton for WinCE...
EDIT AGAIN: this partition contains phone serial number and product code, and possibly imei and simlock. For sure its not an efi partition
/dev/sdb6 304134 310277 3072 58 3Mb size
/dev/sdb7 393216 399359 3072 4a 3Mb size
/dev/sdb8 399360 405503 3072 4b 3Mb size
These three partitions have similar start and end data on their partitions, no idea what they are, since I haven't been able to see if it's even a file system. All the documentation I see seems to tell Windows Mobile uses exFAT for the filesystem, but can't seem to find its header anywhere on the flash... still looking. It could even be where WinMo stores application installers for first boot on the device (but could be perfectly wrong)
All of them start with the following header (hex):
7D 8D 27 82 D7 40 F8 90 53 22 82 43 6D EC 6F 69 49
/dev/sdb9 524288 31156362 15316037+ 48
This las partition is 15Gb size, and contains all the Operating System and all the data on the phone.
Anyone know about how does Windows Phone manage filesystems on NAND? Some help would be really appreciated...
The file system for the 15Gb partition has _wmstore header, still incompatible with some kitchens, but still looking...
Here's part of the header:
Code:
_wmstore

LK Bootloader for Lumia
beldi setupped a git repo of LK Android bootloader for Lumia devices here
Code:
*** Compiling the LK Android bootloader ***
** Tested on Ubuntu 11.10 with Lumia 710 **
1) Get the toolchain and install:
wget https://sourcery.mentor.com/public/gnu_toolchain/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/arm-2009q1-203-arm-none-linux-gnueabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2
sudo tar xvf arm-2009q1-203-arm-none-linux-gnueabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2 --directory /opt/
2) Compile the bootloader:
PATH=/opt/arm-2009q1/bin:$PATH TOOLCHAIN_PREFIX=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- PROJECT=msm7630_surf make EMMC_BOOT=1
3) Get your Lumia into diagnostics mode (turn it on using VOL UP + VOL DOWN + POWER)
4) BACKUP EVERY SINGLE FILE FROM THE 150MB PARTITION! (Just to be safe)
5) Replace the image/emmcboot.mbn file with your freshly compiled LK bootloader
cp <repo dir>/build-msm7630_surf/EMMCBOOT.MBN /media/<mount point>/image2/emmcboot.mbn
6) Unmount the bootloader partition from your PC and pull the phone's battery
7) Turn on, wait a few moments, and plug the phone to the PC
8) Test the fastboot connection:
fastboot devices
fastboot getvar version
for now is working only the fastboot protocol but nothing more, is in current alpha stage.

i have lumia 710 qualcomm.
I have updated twice via NCS before gettiing a qualcomm bootloader. Just downloaded 12050 firware ang later i wasnt able to update via NCS.
I performed a nund backup. But i'm afraid to flash rom. One 710 was killed, i dont want to have the second. Will wait for the tested rom and then flash.
Done the procedure, strange that mine shows nothing at all....it's just straight up blank screen after the short vibration, then does the standard vibrate and boots like normal. No sign of Qualcomm or Nokia DLOAD....
To mention, running Windows 8 CP.
I think you can put in the first post :
Q : I have Nokia DLOAD, how can I get the Qualcomm bootloader ?
A : For now, you can't.
Q : Can I get the Qualcomm bootloader by downgrading my Lumia ?
A : No, you can't.
updated with questions and answers! thanks x3n0n.
Can a mod sticky if judge it fine?

If nothing is showed and nothings happens you have a nokia locked bootloader, if not you would have be prompted by a "format USB drive".

Just to let you know, easiest way of doing it, as mentioned by JaxBot is to switch off phone, hold volume + and volume -, the first vibration, plug in USB.
For Windows users and Noobs like me, easiest way to check, is to go to Computer Management > Device Manager > other devices, check that when you connect the USB.
My lumia have revision number 2.3 and 12070 firmware. i updated my phone using Zune. but i still have nokia DLOAD when pressing Volume UP+DOWN and connect it to USB. according to the Q&A :
If you've got hw rev 2.3 but you have flashed your device with a firmware 11500 or higher - flashed mean with Nokia Care Suite because Zune doesn't update your bootloader - you have the new Nokia Bootloader;

it means, even i updated my lumia via Zune, my Bootloader have been updated to the new one. am i correct? because it showed Nokia DLOAD when i am connecting the phone. :/

Can you post your product code that you flahed so we can grab it from nokia care? are sure of your status?
My product code is 059M5Z4.
you see, this firmware was uploaded to navifirm, 3 days later deleted and new version esp uploaded. Try downloading the file, that I linked

And yes, I'm sure that my bootloader is unlocked. When I enter Qualcomm mode windows 7 wants to format it. And with Linux I gad grabed a nand backup
can you attach some pics?

here they are.
I'll flash that Lumia 710 firmware over my Lumia 800 to change the firmware then.
Then I'll flash a standard Lumia 800 firmware (minus bootloader) over that.
Should work right?
Are you sure your bootloader was actually locked (DLOAD) before?
Not all Lumia 710 firmwares have the new bootloader. So you could have flashed the new 12050 and it wouldn't have changed your existing bootloader (keeping it unlocked).

First up I noticed it has a smaller than normal nokia_osbl.esco
I opened up nokia_osbl.mbn in a hex editor and wahlah, it's a qualcomm bootloader!
Who at Nokia screwed up? I don't care, I'm flashing it.
It seems to have qualcomm bootloader + cert.

So is this easily flashed through NCS by placing the qualcomm nokia_osbl.esco file in a standard RM-801 package folder?
Only you have a way to provide a valid cert for passing NCS check, if so everyone would had have the Qualcomm bootloader from time, so the answer is no, you can just sticky the qualcomm bootloader and flash

I just wrote a PM to Chainfire. Let`s see if he`ll respond.
If this thing is flawless....
Then I would understand Dell for locking the boot loader.. But I am very very mad at Dell. This piece of device IS piece of junk with Android 4.3. Almost all appLications at some point in time will locked up and froze and for you to get back to it, you would have to press the power button momentarily, i.e turn off the display and turn it back on. Too bad I did not play with it very hard w/in 21 days of owning it. Now I don't know if it is worth talking to dell of repairing (AND/or REPLACING IT.)
Dell you can PM me. I will be actively watching this V8 (i GOT A 32 GIG v8) on www-facebook-com-DellHomeUS.
Thanks,

Tik, while i under stand your frustration, I started this thread to move the devices out of the low activity section and for discussing and sharing any information that may lead to root method and aid in future development of these devices not to complain about Dell or the device..
if you wish to address to Dell your frustration with the device i urge you to post a commit to the facebook post:
Dell Venue 7/8 Intel Unlock Request
if you have a general question about the device please feel free to post in the new QA thread:
Dell Venue 7 & Venue 8 Intel General Q&A
or search in the original dell thread:

Tell me what you want, jcase rooted 1 Venue 8 on 4.3 but the exploit was never made public, but that user allowed me access so i have, extracted boot, recovery, droidboot, kernel and ramdisk only no real images, and the rooted system.img, also took cat /proc/kallsyms from the rooted device, but have since figured out how to get kallsyms from a non rooted device, i probably have most everything you just tell me what you need.
i hope to have everything i have up by the end of the weekend, till then list what your wanting and ill post what i can provide.

Quick couple questions, how are you getting into fastboot? I can't get it. Have you tried using fastboot to flash the rooted system image?
adb reboot-bootloader even works powered off as the device use a charging os mode, or from powered off hold down vol down and the power key to boot to droidboot.
No I have the V7 not the V8, flashing a fake data.img to data I've had issues flash any img larger than 100mb or sparse images. Dell hasn't released a full restore firmware yet so I've not risked flashing system.img.
By the end of the weekend I should have everything I know up. The flashing a prerooted system image does seem to be a common root for Intel devices but with out a factory restore firmware / full-install.zip that's a huge risk knowing if it doesn't work dell won't warranty the device. So you'd be stuck with a soft brick until Dell released a full-install.zip and i don't think dells done that for any device they have ever released. Knowing that the device can be rooted with out flashing a prerooted system.img this should be a last option.

I am just wondering, can we dump partitions without root? If yes, then we could dump them, try to flash this rooted img`s and in case of any errors we could go back by flashing dumped files via fastboot.

OK. I don't know how much side chat anyone has has with jcase. He literally says the root method on his webpage i think he has registered in his xda profile. We also know he required Linux with the one and only root on the current dell ROM. He also posts on his site the basic method which he explains pretty clearly. Looks to have adb waiting for a device during the boot process to; I'm sure quickly mount something RW and script out a copy and execute a root. So, I know Linux treats hardware different and it may require less time to initiate communication with devices. Windows may not be showing you all the hardware/hardware ID's this thing reports it is so quickly during boot. It may not be possible to apply his method in a Windows environment. That said have you tried to get all the different types off hardware this thing reports that it is running on Linux and attempted a adb wait then immediate adb root method while its booting/rebooting?
I was never able to get it to work on the dell venue, I actually discovered it independent of jcase, he wasn't gonna publish it but I leak it, mine is down at the moment, when I get my new one i'all try it again.

Do you have an uncompressed boot.img off the 4.3 ? I'd like to try enabling ADB and making system mount rw. That was how we got root on the Le Pan S originally.

Thanks, If I try to pack it and fastboot can't boot it I won't know if it's the edit or the method I used to pack it. With the original image I can try to boot it first, and make sure that the system will even allow it. Then I will be certain I am a screw up if my version doesn;t work. :doh:

Can you attach that image here, to take a look? It sounds like there is no ramdisk in it. There are some phones that doesn't have ramdisks in boot images.

Sure thing, just remove .zip from the file name, had to do that as it only allows 8Mb img uploads
I'm trying to edit the boot so that I might be able to make the external SD into the data drive, is this even possible or am I wasting my time?
Thanks!

Ok, I see... Your image is "lokified". In order to use my tool you need to "de-lokify" it first, then after modding you need to "re-lokify" it back. Some infos here and here. It may be many other infos but I didn't have time to do a full search; you have to do it for yourself.
Some LG and Samsung devices have that "Loki" thing and you need to deal with it. Maybe when I'll have a phone like that I'll make an automated process for it, but now I haven't and I can't work "in blind".
I don't know what to say about your last question... I'm not even sure what you're talking about.

Awesome, thanks!
basically, the LG Optimus F3 comes with too little memory built in, there's a program that mounts an external SD's second partition as a data folder, but even still it runs out of internal memory or won't install apps larger than the internal memory because the "System" partition still has little room.
so the goal was to edit the boot so it will boot using an external SD directly as the system drive, it would read it's maximum memory available as whatever the external SD's maximum is.
this would solve the problem, if it works, if not then it'll probably just brick the phone :good:
I just wanted to update and say thanks. This helped out great! I was able to successfully boot /data from my external SD card as desired, however, my card is only a class 2 so it won't be a good idea until I upgrade it to a class 10.
Lg Optimus F3 comes with very little internal storage, which was giving me a headache, so I wanted to make the phone boot using an external SD as the /data partition.
after following your tip, I unloki'd the boot image and used your Carliv Image Kitchen to extract the contents, edited the fstab and edited out the original code: "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata /data" telling it to mount /data on the /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 instead.
after repacking and re-loking and flashing the .img it had some problems, for some reason it was just booting to a black screen, so I used dd from the team win terminal to copy the /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata over to the /dev/block/mmcblk1p2, and it worked!
being a class 2, it booted slowly and responded slowly but works none the less.
to be sure there was no problem with partition size, being how I used dd to mirror userdata over to the sdcard, I ran gparted in linux and resized the partition smaller, then larger to full size (just in case)
thanks for your wonderful tool and for pointing me in the right direction.
help sir carliv please

The answer is already in your question:

As I already posted in recovery's thread, it will work with kitkat kernels. Some people port it to lollipop but I never recommended that.
So to answer clearly cm11 because cm12 means lollipop, or it will work with any other kitkat based ROM if your phone has any kitkat kernel released.
You need to ask the one who released that cm12 for your phone to provide a matching recovery along.
Now you probably need to reflash the phone with SPFlashTools.
ok thanks a whole lot but im having another issue the sd card is now only readable by my phone how do i go about copying a rom to it whenever i plug it into the pc it doesnt come up

Which chipset?
Hi there... I woul like to ask if this tool works for Helio x20 cpu's... (Mt6797 - Leagoo T10) because I'm trying to extract the stock recovery but having trouble with the ramdisk... It says "compression used unknown..." I've seen it mentioned in the discussion some times but the explanation was to use the 1. Metod ??? I'm using the windows 1.1 version and I really don't see any other method to use (start bat, r, 1 recovery.img, , 1 unpack image, error....) I'm just installing Ubuntu to see the difference but would be grateful for some advise... Thanks.
Since main Carlive Image Kitchen thread has been closed in 2017 all the util builds have been lost for some unknown reason. Dev claimed he have personal problems and adviced users to help each other.
I've found latest official version 1.3 builds and publish them here for practical and historic reasons. This util mentioned in a various manuals so people will look for it for a long time then. Old Linux modded version by yuweng is also added for completeness.

Furthermore user FOV5 @ 4pda.ru forums have modded latest 1.3 version a few times so I do publish here his latest modded version 1.5B3 (12-Jan-2018)
Changes history:
- v1.4: Support for some non-standard kernel images (e.g. LibreELEC and similar).
- v1.5B1:
- Removed 'Boot' and 'Recovery' prefixes from file names while unpacking Boot/Recovery images. This is due to ability to easily compare whole Boot and Recovery folders after unpacking.
- Added optional experimental AmLogic core unpacking. This could be helpful to patch storage media layout when device partition build into the core.
- v1.5B2: Fixed 32 bit app crash after core unpacking. A few other small non critical fixes.
- v1.5B3:
- New while core slitting, parameters like Name, Load Address and Entry Point are preserved.
- Fixed: New app will try to pack core only when all the 4 kernel parts are found in the unpacking folder. If core unpacking process some kind failed, one or more kernel.* files will be missing, so repack process will use original core instead of trying to assemble broken one.

If you have any questions related to this modded app version look for FOV5 user at 4pda.ru forums and ask him (I don't know does he speak any langs except Russian, online translators available anyway. There is also Russian numeric captcha problem for non-Russian speakers when loggin in to that forums, sorry guys). I do not often use this app and occasionally visit XDA, so I can't support this product in a professional manner. Help each other guys!
