But what is there in the custom firmware? How is it different from the official?

[devilkid]

roseon,I was not long on stock, I do not know all the differences. From what I remembered, a button appeared to view the most recently launched applications in the status bar, a percentage battery indicator, initially there is a root-access (SuperSU app), there are no extra applications (including secure it). Well, there are no problems with it for three weeks now, but I switched to it because of the fallen waffle. Anyway, on the stock, as I understand it, a lot of problems (the last couple of pages of the main theme :)).

[igor-10]

people help !!!!!! Need a donor nvram, have no way to restore it, because I don’t have APBD and MODEMDB in any firmware:

[Astrolist]

Guys, write how to sew the firmware. All ticks put? Firmware Upgrade?
And yes, there is a custom recovery for this miracle?

Post has been editedAstrolist - 18.10.14, 11:34

[Grigasproxzqt]

Astrolistyes all ticks + tick on DA DL ...

[Astrolist]

Tell me what kind of recovery in custom firmware?
And I already have TWRP, and I would not want to block. I made a backup of the old firmware in TWRP ...
Or maybe just an item in the FT recovery does not mark?

[Grigasproxzqt]

Astrolist @ 10/18/2014, 15:05

Or maybe just an item in the FT recovery does not mark?

Could be so.

[Astrolist]

Grigasproxzqt @ 10/18/2014, 2:10 PM

Could be so

Not allowed. All or nothing ....

[Grigasproxzqt]

AstrolistAnd what kind of firmware was immediately with TWRP? Pull out the recovery from there and slip it into the new firmware, that's all)

[Astrolist]

Grigasproxzqt
Everything is already. Coped.
Sewed.
Only mobile uncle invisible engineering menu.
Only android.
This is sad.

igor-10,Backup of my IMEI through my mobile uncle (if I understood correctly what you need :)):
IMEI.bak.zip(120 bytes)

Remove the .zip from the title. If it does not help, turn to koumiss to Foxtrot_KZ (in the main topic), it should help.

AstrolistTry to delete the uncle's data, I also have a custom - I have access to the engineering menu.

[igor-10]

It did not work): "have the wrong one" as before, you need a backup with the trwp campaign, thank you for responding.

[devilkid]

igor-10,and after what he flew away from you? Maybe try to reflash?
nvram.zip(50.52 KB)

The entire nvram folder. Maybe it will help :)

I got the phone from the dude who tried to change it himself, as he didn’t know, but the point was, the pipe hung on the splash screen, the pipe started up after flashing with the flash, but the wrong one, and the bluetooth and bluetooth work fine. I did not find the firmware with the network calibrations in the internet, the substitution of the nvram folder did not give anything, I still need a backup.

[Astrolist]

Thanks to the kind people for the firmware. (From son-in-law)

Kumarit "house". I would like to have a task manager on it ... well, and just close the application.
