Mini FAQ

Q: Information about

пїЅпїЅпїЅпїЅпїЅпїЅ пїЅпїЅпїЅпїЅпїЅпїЅпїЅ download

.
A: Important info for their owners - lowering the pre-installed firmware (below 6.0) can lead to the death of the device (but you can revive the full format). Externally, revisions are practically the same, although all new phones have stylized touch buttons (Material). Programmatically, Marshmallow is pre-installed on new phones, Lollipop on old ones. If you have a pre-installed Nougat, then you haveRace 2and it's not your topic at all.
In general - readthose. data of our phone . And spoiler "Attention" .

Q: What does it meanunlock and why it needs to be done with our devices?
O: Such phones are officially sold only in the operator's stores of MTS and can work only with this operator, i.e. If you insert a SIM card from another operator, the telephone part will not work until you unlock the phone. In this state, the phone is locked (locked). The code for unlocking the phone can be obtained from the operator for a few dollars, or else it can be bought somewhere cheaper, for example on eBay, this code is issued for each device unique. After entering the code, the device will be unlocked and will work with all operators.

AT:Does unlock flies software or legal when flashing?
O: Yes, when changing the firmware, the unlock flies (or not? I flew ... anywayI strongly recommend making a backup IMEI and nvram - approx. Curator)

B: Tell me aboutuniversal problem solving plan :
1. Clearing caches and fix permissions, i.e. wipe dalvik cache / cache
2. Update OTA firmware. If you can not - go to stage 3.
3. Perform a full reset, i.e. full wipe / wipe data
4. Reinstall the firmware completely (installing a drain is the best solution)
5. Write on the forum: "I tried all possible methods (a) - everything is buggy ... What else can I do? + Describe the existing problem"

B: How to enabledeveloper mode and for what?
O: In the settings, you need to tap on the line with the firmware build number 7 times. As a rule - to enable ADB.

B: After the updatethe phone started to slow down . What to do?
O: Make a complete reset of the device (wipe). To do this, go to "Settings" - "Backup and reset" and tap on Reset data. Or use Recovery and reset it. It is necessary to fulfill both items with the word wipe in the name. These actions are identical, the only difference is where the command is given from.

B:Wi-Fi is always active. . How to disable?
O: "Settings" - "Wi-Fi" - click "Menu" - "Advanced" - Uncheck "Always allow search". And sometimes statistics can be deceiving ...

B: Howhide extra photos from gallery , if I don’t want to delete them and show them to strangers?
O: You need to create an empty file with the name .nomedia in the folder with these photos and they will no longer appear in the gallery, but remain on the device.
You can hide a folder simply by putting a period at the beginning of its name. For example - .music.

B: Is it possiblereturn stock programs Removed from custom?
O: Yes, you can, with any explorer with root-access, place the remote application in the / system / app / directory and set its permissions by analogy with other applications in this directory (755 folder and 644 application).

AT: What kind of recovery to flash through? What does this mean?
A: Native recovery can sewonly files specially signed by the manufacturer(read "can not sew anything"). Therefore, the phrase "through recovery" impliesfirmware only through custom recovery (we still have it, TWRP, all in a hat ).

AT: Where to download and how to establish normal stock firmware?
O: Installing stock firmware is done either via FlashTool, or by restoring from backupcustom recovery TWRP.

AT: Why The data folder is not cleaned in the recovery ? Cleaned the system, caСЃhe, a data writes that it failed.

Solution (difficulty level -average)

1. Unpack boot.img (CarlivImageKitchen)
2. Make edits in the ramdisk / default.prop file with regard to the following lines:

ro.secure =1 -------> ro.secure =0
3. Make edits in the ramdisk / fstab.mt6735 file regarding the following lines:

/dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/11230000.msdc0/by-name/userdata/data ext4 noatime, nosuid, nodev, noauto_da_alloc, discard wait, check, resize,forceencrypt= / dev / block / platform / mtk-msdc.0 / 11230000.msdc0 / by-name / metadata

4. Repack boot.img and flash to device.

B: When loading first appears Picture MTS without animation for three seconds , then bootanimation starts, please tell me how to cut the MTS completely?
O:LogoBuilder - change the boot screen

B: Not installeddriver (for FT and / or ADB), what to do?
O: Disable driver signature verification.Here it is written how to do it.

3. Questions, the answers to which are in the header. This is my favorite. Such posts will be removed immediately
4. Questions not related to the topic.Firmware . Here you can not discuss games, programs, etc. etc.

If you have a problem / question:
1. To google the problem, if it didn't help, p. 2
2. Read the topic header (these are all the spoilers that you are watching),in particular the FAQ!If it does not help, p.3
3. Use the search on the topic. It is there at the top right, such a strip. Did not help, go to step 4
4. Describe in detail and clearly the problem or question, indicating the firmware and your actions. If there is no answer, do not ask many times, better write to the Curator, it will be much better

Installing recovery using the SP Flash Tool

Unpack the archive to the root of drive C.
In the flasherSPFlash Toolspecify the scanner file from the archive.
The file list will only be recovery.img
Flash by selecting "Download"

Firmware recovery via terminal

If the phone has root, then copy the recovery.img to the root of the flash drive. In the terminal we enter:

su

Upon request, the super-user give permission to the terminal.
Next, enter:

cat /sdcard/recovery.img>/ dev / block / mmcblk0p8; sync
reboot recovery

If you use a terminal on a computer via adb shell, then enter one line at a time, and not the entire pack at once.

To go into recovery from the off state, you need to hold down the "Thunder +" and "On."

Instructions on how to unlock SIM cards from other operators.
Attention: ROOT must be installed in the phone.

1. Open the Root Explorer and go to the following path / data / data / com.android.providers.settings/databases/ (left tab)

2. Copy the settings.db file to the phone’s memory (right tab) and create its backup settings_backup.db

3. Install any SQLite database editor (I installed aSQLiteManager, because it requires a minimum of permissions to work) and open the base of settings.db copied into the “phone memory”

4. In bd go to the system table and add a new row with the name sml_lock_status and value 0

5. Close the SQLite editor. Copying the settings.db from the "phone's memory" back to /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/, after which we restore the file and owner permissions to the original ones

6. Reboot with the sims of the desired operator.

[alsav83]

In general, here, the chopped system:
- for twrphttps: //drive.google.c....ThISTJaVWM&usp=sharing
- and for flashtoolhttps: //drive.google.c...BWRWM/view? usp = sharing
Removed all operator applications and almost all Google. And replaced the launcher with Nova.

Flashlight and do. Here inthis topicIn the cap everything is described how to use it.
It is also possible to make backups through twrp and then restore them, but IMHO is more reliable with a USB flash drive.

Understood, thanks.

but there is one BUT !!!
For unlocking, I did everything according to the instructions, I registered the line sml_lock_status 0 in the database previously copied, then I threw it back with a replacement. Well, in short everything is as per instructions. put all the rights and the owner, all right. I rechecked everything 3. times. but the result is the same. with simka motive when rebooting asks NSK CODE.

Maybe it works for someone, but apparently not on all devices. how else to explain?




ps: I noticed another difference in the settings.db instructions, it weighs 76kb, and I have 84 kbsettings.rar(11.56 KB)
attached my file

I dropped it on the computer settings.db, archived just in case, added an unlock line using freesqlitestudioI threw it back into the phone and, using the total on the phone, corrected the owner from the root to the systems. rebooted the body, done.

Stock firmware for SPFlash ToolI posted, but without preloader, cache and data. If the preloader is not erased, then to restore the brick will go.

I'm just afraid of the state of the brick, and by the way, this can already be in the topic of the firmware of the Suva.

Compiled CyanogenMod for Race.

Was it collected from source or is it a port from another body? But if you can, it is not difficult to give a small instruction how you did it. under kvakkomm in the presence of a tree, something was going on with me, but never under a media library. Well, some simple general provisions, how they made the tree and how the proprietary files were copied, by script or manually, or else as. thank you in advance.

There is a small cant in the scatter: starting the cache or userdata (I don’t remember exactly) the addresses are not correct.

So it is - userdata / partition_size needed to be specified. 1.6 GB was registered, naturally the image / data "got out" for the dimensions.
