Okay im asking this question for a friend.
He currently has an 1.6 X10 (stock) which i have managed to root.
However the USB port is broken ( a common problem ) so we can't use flash tool or anything requiring USB.
So now we are rooted on 1.6 can we get Xrecovery or some form of recovery on to the the phone ? we have got busy box installed and have tryed to run the newest Xrecovery.apk from this site but its fails at parsing the file.
Any help on this would be great as he would like to get 2.1 on his phone so he can then continue to use official updates ( he doe snot care that he will loose root if he does this )
Regards,
I have the exact same problem. Tried every way of installing xrecovery, still no luck.
Anyone help please?
You can try adb over wifi if u r android version have it see in developers option if there then I can root by adb commands over wifi

Is there a way to get fota updates for this device as a regular download through pc? If so, could someone please point me to the location? I need the latest update zip for this phone (i think from nov/dec 14) in german.
HI, I followed the instructions above, but I can't get the o.s. Just have the clockworkmod recovery now, so the vodafone 785 doesn't start. I also tried to put the backup folder into my extsd but I'm not able to restore the smartphone from the backup you uploaded (from cwm recovery), because it says "no file". Please can you help me?
Does this work? Anyone confirm?

Vodafone smart 4 mini doesn't start
Hi
I bought brand new vodafone smart 4 mini and first I did was root to unlock phone, next a very stupid idea came to my had to update software, after that my phone worked terreble, so another stupid idea came to my head to flash oryginal ROM, I downloaded rom, SPFlash tool , load scatter file and pressed download, everything looked good, it took about one minute and green circle ok at the end. I was verry happy, for couple seconds only, my brand new phone never started again. there was only short blink when I pressed power button , and then nothing. I've been trying to flash the phone many times after that with couple different ROM's but no succes. sometime phone doesn't even blink after flashing. Sometimes at the begining of flashing there is mesage "no partition table" or memory error. Please somebody help me, I'm loosing hope.
I think the only good news is that the "Media Tek PreLoader USB VCOM" still works, and looks like phone cooperates with the tool, maybe I should use different tool, or test phone first with some tool, or create partitin table ?

hi! i have cubot s208(a) . i rooted,yes. my problem with the phone was it was slow and laged specially watching videos. everyday i could do nothing but restart it. so i thought nice hardware but the problem must be rom or kernel so i decided i install custom rom. but there are no for this phone exept i found on this site miui v5. i did some backup with MTKdroid tools.(image is still on my pc,but unfortunatelly not on my phone) i put miui rom on internal card,i went to cwm there i wiped cache and data...install miui zip file all no problem,but after reboot on cubot logo some funny colours and then just black screen...nothing else happens. i went to cwm again tried restore but no backup there.i tried install backup with MTKdroid tools,but phone wont be recognized. i tried put images from pc to sd card but it wont work.i tried flash tools,i downloaded 2 firmware stock roms (unfortunately they aint zip) but again flash tools wont work because it wont connect with phone.(with usb cable) if i just connect phone with pc it auto turns him on.i tried zipping those 2 roms,but after trying in cwm it says install aborted (way i figured i need real stock rom but in zip file) funny no way i can find it.only roms that i can use with flashtools.
so...anyone knows what can i do please say
edit
i fixed it
somehow i suceeded installing mobistel cynus driver (for usb) then i went to sp flash tools. there was other problems... but there i first format phone.then just flash preloader.then everything else.et voila!only problem left is invalid imei.but i guess it will be easy to fix,right now i go to sleep.last 30 hours i slept 6 hours,other time i spent on pc.hope i help somebody.dont forget to backup your phones!
good night and good fight!
Hi everyone,
I managed to brick my Cube T8 Plus trying to root it. Now it is no longer recognised by Windows, does not turn on does not get into recovery. Any hope?
So desperate for some help here...:crying:
This is my problem too. I even can not find rom for it . i got it last week and i am sure it was 20160225 virsion.
Same problem here.
Recovery is working but it is not recognized by the pc (windows 10).
I tried to transfer a file by using a SD card but it does not appear on the recovery (install zip metod).
Try the SP flash tool.
its seems to be crashing on my PC.
any suggestions ?
You can download the file T8-PLUS_V1.0_20160218. use google to find and download it.
it contains the SP flash tool and a list.
tell me if you succeeded.
i didnt
Also same problem
I think I made a misstake and formated my whole Cube T8plus.
So I wonder if someone have a backup to share that I can try to use for recovery?
hello .... sorry for my bad English
at the beginning i was trying to root my mate 9 pro .. every thing went fine until i tried to install super user, then i don't know what happened but the phone was bricked and i cant boot it normally anymore !! i tried to flash several roms through twrp with no luck at all ...
so i started to look for a solution until i found this guide on youtube , i downloaded a tool that screwed my twrp and i can't access it anymore !!
also my pc won't read my phone even through adb .. i can only go to fastboot mode and recovery mode .. please help me !
i just want to get access to twrp again because now i know how to flash roms properly
Hmmm... pat pat this is so sad... I'm kindda getting the same thing as you do, now my phone can only go to fastboot and recovery mode, but what I did is that I tried to flash a custom ROM, I was using the other ROM made by the same team on my other HUAWEI phone for about two years and everything works really well, so I thought this could also works out but not. Since mate9 pro don't have the SD card method of flashing the system, it's really hard to copy the file into the system to modify.
Did you unlock the bootloader and turn on the usb debugging mode before you brick the phone? I happen to have a script that can flash either twrp or the official recovery into the phone, I think if you did those two steps above, it should be working. Also I'm going to try the usb OTG connecting method and see if I can get the file into the system. Good luck on unbrick the phone! Have faith with it!!
