Reason for editing: Firmware update for Android 7.0

[Terik]

gipnogaga - was wrong, for which I apologize)
/ about the fixed-smiled, the manufacturer and his support for our model scored long ago, it’s not a royal business on the ancient mobiles to tense up (corporate slogan Phillips, isn't it?)
They have a rule "Released and forgotten"

Terik,
Most manufacturers do this, but the author of this manual and part-time, this topic has long been on this forum, inspires confidence.
I hope that he will return to the topic as time will be, because for him it is hardly a difficulty, and the phone is excellent on its own, but it doesn’t work out rutually, it has sown all this morning for this :(

I asked the 588th for my instructions in 5 minutes. what's wrong?

Gipnogaga @ 10/12/18, 14:31

1. It is downloaded only after authorization on the site, otherwise it writes that the file does not exist at all.

All files attached to the forum are visible only after authorization.

p.s. If you are new to the firmware, go to the topic for the Flash Tool for MTK. I'm tired of writing the same thing in dozens of topics.

[gipnogaga]

DOC2008,

Search "Flash Tool for MTK" found a lot of messages, but not headers. If I understand correctly, this is for a rollback in case of any failure.

What specifically did the flash tool do?

Exposed
Download agent: MTK_AllInOne_DA.bin from its own directory.
Scatter: TWRP 7.0 \ MT6750_Android_scatter.txt from another application to the seventh android.

I turn off the phone, wait a bit, connect the cable to the laptop via my native usb, click the Download button in the flash tool. She turns gray, hinting that the process has begun. And this is not at all five minutes, but not less than forty minutes. What am I doing wrong?

After "choose Recovery menu and press Volume UP" everything is completely different.
I will only add to the first post that iso is for Android 7 and, just in case, zip is for the sixth, in the root of the file system of the phone.
What am I specifically doing wrong here?

Thank.

you must first click Download and then connect a smartphone to the USB cable.
maybe there are no drivers installed on your computer. You can get acquainted with the problemHERE.

p.s. I am not a tech support for Philips or a nannysavagemessiahzine.com. so sorry. a couple of minutes of searching the Internet - they would have found everything themselves

FRP dropped on android 7.0
You will need SPFlashTool and skatter from the firmware in the header.
The drivers and the flash unit were installed, the scatter downloaded. do the following
1. In the SPFlashTool, open the skatter file
2. Remove all the checkboxes in the Download tab
3. Go to the Format tab and select Manual Format Flash
4. Region EMMC_USER, Begin Adress 0x1a88000, Format length 0x100000
5. Click Start
6. We start the phone and immediately (until the screen saver appears) we connect the cable and press the vol- and power buttons simultaneously, hold the buttons (the phone will show the screen saver and go out)
7. SPFlashTool will run a red bar and a green check mark will appear.
8. We rejoice.

Working way! FRP dropped on android 6.0 as written above! In the store, the seller promptly made up an account, after a year all the papers were surely safely lost, on which at least something about the account could be, it was impossible to give to the official Philips office to fix the problem, because besides the box and all documents, a cash receipt was required After the expiration of the guarantee, they thought that it was not necessary, and after that they began to look for an opportunity through the workshop! Some said, nothing can be done, others sell the ruble for 2-3 no more, that's all! This really helped the way!

Philips Xenium X 588 smartphone, supports OTG
In the photo, two different OTG, silver works, and black does not.
.....
Silver is working, black is not kontachit, something for some reason he is moving away from the connector!
With silver there is no such! Everything works right away: I inserted a flash drive with the Fat 32 file system and starts working by default. Although it will be better / more convenient to install another third-party program / file manager.
The wireless mouse also works: an arrow appears on the screen like on a computer.

The clock is behind. Clambered the whole topic, did not find anything. What can be done? Reset to factory helped for 2 weeks. After 2 weeks it began again.
What do you think, if you pass in mvideo, it will take? Furious really, that the clock is lagging behind. Warranty is still valid until July next year.

Hello! Please tell me a friend has such a phone, bought about a year ago, problems started, the connection was lost, I found only two messages with such a problem, but I didn’t find any answers with a solution to this problem. fix this glitch?

[Paltaron]

A small report.
One and half year.
1. Appearance. Without a cover, pockets with keys and other pieces of iron - scuffs on plastic, a few scratches on the lid, a couple of barely noticeable scratches on the screen (only if it is very good to wipe) scratches. Periodically falls - reboots on impact. Other consequences of the fall of her discovered. This makes me happy. We write a plus.
2. Autonomy. Messengers, internet, YouTube, headphones for Bluetooth 4-5 hours per day. Wi-Fi, mobile Internet is always on. At night, turn on the economy mode. 2 days without problems with the balance of 20-25 percent. Also a plus.
3. Communication. Moscow, MTS. Poor catches in the room, in the subway. Constantly jumping 2-3-4 w. Sometimes they can not get through to me. Not very satisfied. Minus.
4. Volume. Very quiet. Vibro weak. In my pocket I do not hear it at all. You have to either put it in your shirt pocket or walk in headphones. Switching the mode to "street" does not help. Minus.
5. Stability of work, memory. It seems everything works. Pretty smart. I forgot about clearing the memory. Never cleaned specifically to make room. Just deleted not necessary.
6. Photo / video. Especially tops from the cell phone should not be expected. But that is basically enough.

Conclusion. If it were not for shoals with communication and speaker volume would be an excellent workhorse.

[Rysyatina]

Never had an Android phone, used Symbian, then VinMobile. Now Lyumiya 950 is slowly dying, he bought 588 in order to familiarize himself with Android. In general, I'm waiting for Nokia 9. It is extremely unusual to use after the tiles. I ask for help in two questions.
1) How to call out contacts by last name, not first name? How to quickly select a contact using the first letter without flipping through the entire notebook for half a minute to the end, for example, Yana Yakovlev?
2) In Windows, with a swipe to the left, a list of all installed applications was opened, where you can view this list and quickly launch the application, Calculator, for example.
Thank.

Scatter from firmware X588 M6750A 1651 V28A RU.

Hello, friends! =) I ask for help, they brought such a device, a diagnosis: the network does not catch
In other workshops already tried to make it - could not. So, I looked, IMEI flew off, but it’s impossible to restore them through SNWriterTool, as there is some problem with the connection between the phone and the PC. Flashtool also does not sew. (It's not about firewood, as I have been doing the firmware for 13 years, I’m done it in this business =) I tried the solder (Type-C) I didn’t install the phone even when it was turned on, that is, the PC sees it, but the firewood isn’t installed or installed but with! sign (error code 10). I tried to turn on debugging, the device is sometimes detected without errors, the flashtool picks up, after the red bar runs, the phone switches to VCOM DA mode and then the process hangs on

Android 7. In general, are there any experts who can help restore NVRAM (IMEI) only on the phone itself, without a PC? =) (With root rights =)

2) In general, guys, the engineering menu does not open, since there is no nvram section (in the list wi-fi nvram warning err = 0x10)

Who will be able to merge this section to me so that I can shove them with the help of the root explorer? =)

3) here is another problem, can I get root without a PC and accordingly without TWRP)
