What is being installed, and how to STOP it? - Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General

After formating my athena it automatically starts to install something!
Does anyone know what it installs and if it is possible to stop it from doing that?
I want to make a new fresh installation and only install programs that I like and want!
I have the original WM6 rom!
Please help!

I think you are seeing the device initialization, something that HTC has inserted into the ROM installation process. Not something you want to stop if you want the drivers so everything works.

It is the Extended ROM - basically all the customisation your carrier installs.
But why on earth use a standard ROM rather than an AP one?

AP one?
I am not familiar with that, what is it?
Thanks in advance!

AP = Athena Project
A group of very clever people have created ROMS for the Athena with all the good biots and none of the bad bits.
The latest version is 3.0 Dual at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=346221
But 4.0 is finished and will be released when the unlocker is ready.

Thank you so much!

If I install the AP 3 Rom, will I void my warranty?

yes, because you have to use olipro's unlocker first so your device can be super CID
edit: your original question - i think but im not for sure be if you stick the stylus in the back and and do a soft reset right before the customizations start then next time your phone loads it wont load that stuff but there is some stuff in there you might want.

Quite Correct! A soft reset during the three second warning will bypass the customizations. No harm in trying it without the customizations, then do a hard reset and let them install. If you don't need any of the extras, you can hard reset again and bypass again with the soft reset.

Yes - although you can flash back to an official ROM your device will have to be super CID - but most operators don't notice the super CID and people have claimed off their warranty successfully. One person recently got their device back from T-Mob and it was CID locked again!

I am on the 3 Network(UK), my phone is branded, no lagfix, no root, im on froyo 2.2 oficial upgrade through kies.
Can someone please give me a simple step by step guide on how to upgrade to the JPY 2.2.1 firmware please, i have the 3 button recovery option btw.
Thank you in advance.

I'd go for a custom rom jpy based like docs or darkys and install through clockwork or you can go to samfirmware to download jpy and use odin to flash it up to you or just do as above and use patcher but jpy is definetly worth it.
The first time i tried the kies patch utility i got a messags saying there were more than 1 phone folders which threw me a bit, but managed to sort it in the end.
So now on ....
2.2.1

Hi Kayno
Set the "Enable Spoof" to True
Set "Spoof product code as" to XEU from the list
Then click on the Write Regstry button in the bottom right
Thats all you have to do, then voila when you start kies and connect your phone you should have a popup saying a firmware upgrade is available.
Good luck

Also did you save the Rom through Kies. Was a bit confused when i read this part on the Kies Registry patcher thread.
By the way hows your experience with the new firmware been so far. Is 3G and WIFI working correctly. Have you tried the app market. Hows the overall speed of the phone and is gps working better now.
Sorry for all these questions but i just wanted to determine whether the risk of updating is worth it.

No, i didnt save the Rom, 3g and Wifi are working fine but you will lose the My3 app because you will be basicly debranding your fone(if you are on contract), but if you start the default browser it takes you direct to My3 .
Havnt tried GPS , dont use it tbh.
The speed of the phone is so much smoother imo, im so glad i upgraded.
Hope that helps

Jaytwo,
My installation failed. Did you manage to flash it on the first go. I did exactly as you said. The thing is it finishes downloading in about 15 mins then fails installation. I also had the multiple folder detected problem. I clicked on ok on the registry patcher to delete the folder and re-started keys with the sgs connected.
The phone disconnects and after about couple of minutes is says Failed to convert to upgrade mode. Please try later.
Does anyone else know how to fix this? Am i doing anything wrong
thanking you in advance
Yes it flashed first time for me.
When the phone disconnected did you do anything?
I noticed when i flashed that the phone disconnected but i didnt touch anything and left it to carry on, it took a while but all went well in the end.
Try flashing again, just to check do you have the 3 button recovery option on your phone?

Hi Jaytwo,
I have not touched the phone when it disconnected as i remember from a previous upgrade to Froyo from Eclaire when it disconnected and then reconnected before completing the upgrade.
I have the 3 button recovery i checked it. The wierd thing is the phone did not reboot to downloading mode where the yellow android digging man picture appears. The phone stays as it is. I wonder whether samsung changed anything recently.
kingconnought, on the main registry patcher thread also mentioned he is experiencing the same problem.
Can anyone else help.
Thanks again
I dont understand why your phone will not go into download mode as that is part of the flashing process.
Try doing a factory reset through settings on your phone, then try flashing again, apart from that im not sure what else you can do apart from flashing thru odin?

LOL... This will be my 5th time.
By the way i thought il tell you this. If you ever want to for God knows whatever reason re-brand your phone to 3 then select the H3G product code and it should Flash your phone to the latest 3 branded Froyo which is JP5.
If i have to resort to Odin then i might as well wait for 3 to update their version to 2.2.1 as im too scared to Flash via Odin as there is too many risks associated with it. Or who knows Samsung may decide to release another version which might work.
Thanks
I got a quick question about this subject. Ik have no experience without android firmware flashing. Do ik need to backup stuff like imei number? For when the **** hits the fan. And if so how do ik do that?

Thanks for all your help mate. I apreciate it

Samsung fake ROM (.WP8)

THIS PROJECT WAS DROPPED.
Use MBN Creator instead. It can SAFELY flash MBNs.​
This is empty ROM made to flash CSC (.mbn) without huge .wp8 file. It can be used to flash MBN on phones where .wp8 isn't available (Odyssey, Neo...).
This ROM is only safe for GT-I8750, cause if you do something wrong, you are still able to flash full normal ROM. You can use this small file to flash my custom CSC, if you don't want to store full 1.5 GB ROM on your HDD.
How to use it:
Choose this ROM as first file in Downloader, and MBN as second
Choose "Select" in "DL option"
Uncheck all partitions, except CSC
Boot your phone into Download Mode and connect it to PC
Click "Start"
Downloader will ask you "Download all binary?". Click "NO"
Hold "lock" key to reset your phone
Do Hard Reset to apply custom CSC
This ROM shouldn't be flashed! Or you turn your phone into a brick. Be careful.
Supported models:
GT-I8675
GT-I8750
SCH-I930
SGH-I187
SGH-T899M
SPH-I800

I believe it depends on the carrier. With the SIM card the update message says I've already the latest version of the OS, without SIM I get a 80072efd error.
Ok at the risk of looking stupid is there a fake rom and custom CSC for the SCH-I930? Just want to be clear on what rom and .mbn I should be using to test.

Sorry, I would've got these to you directly but din't want to bug you for "custom roms" and posted in General sub forum as not to clutter the forums up more than they already are.
PS The text file in the zip is just the current info on my phone from reading CSC with diagnostic tool and NOT included in the files taken from the CSC folder I got off the phone using the Native Access Server app.

Do you have T899M? Can you help me test this ROM?
I do, but I'm not willing to hard-reset at this time unless vitally important. Too many in-progress experiments.
If I have to reset for some other reason (such as an experiment rendering the phone unbootable), I'll try this out. Generally speaking, though, I prefer to work from stock ROMs (with run-time modifications only) where possible.
Okay... I'm having trouble finding where the latest flasher app is at. I have the tool with odyssey support, but I can't seem to get it to take the driver on 8.1 even in Driver Test Mode.... I first tried it on x64, and I'll try later on x86.
EDIT: Okay... I got it working on the Venue 8 Pro (8.1x86)
Which ROM do I need to flash? I see one for the I8750 and the T899M. Or is it that you need the included? I believe the CSC might need to stay VZW, but can you overwrite an existing CSC? Anyways, the entire CSC folder has been attached for simplicity.

Ok, first tester bricked his phone. I think, he clicked "Yes" in step 6. It's soft brick, but... I didn't really think it can be flashed.
Who wants to be a second tester?

Custom-ish ROM (Possible TWRP/ROOT) for J327T1(?)

I have compiled for you an Odin-Flashable downgrade to original Nougat ROM.
Does NOT have Google FRP in this version (the ROM came stock this way; unmodified), this is useful if you forgot your Google email.
Download Odin3 and the .tar file HERE
- Open Odin v3.12.7
- Plug in phone to PC
- Simply boot into download mode (Powered off- Hold HOME+POWER+VOLUME DOWN)
- Click AP
- Select J327T1.tar
- Click Start
Once it finished it will reboot and update. It is going to get stuck on 32%, do not worry.
It will take a second, but the recovery menu will pop up. Select Reboot System and it will take some time to get to the OS but you will eventually have Nougat pop up and ready to go!
Enjoy!
*UPDATE*
In the download links I have the "Factory Binary" Custom ROM. It's pretty useful in messing with the phone software, although I do not know the specific use. Use the same method above to install the ROM.
Also, I do believe you can edit the .tar and add TWRP by downloading the recovery.img from my link and replacing it in the .tar and following the same steps. I have not tested because I was helping my brother access his phone because he forgot his Google account after he reset his phone.

Ok so its not truly the factory binary, its an emulator of that, meaning any changes were not flashed over as in other devices. but i have been thinking and, i'll post this in the original as well, magisk....only works if you completely wipe the device first, same with custom roms, i never tried that when i had the j3, bricks be damned we got odin3 and i got scripts to get outta brick an into download.
if someone would be ao kind as to factory reset and tr installing twrp, that wuld be amazing, i have been working with the note 4 sprint variant and there are a few steps in installng custom roms that we were over looking

Only way I can help you is by telling you go buy yourself a PC if you're going to start routing and or developing the firmware on Android devices it is extremely hard nearly impossible these days with Android devices running version Android 6.0 and up to root without a PC the best and easiest way I've found to root a Android device is to First install a custom recovery like TWR p or ClockworkMod and have a unlocked bootloader then from there you can easily download SuperSU and Flash it with a firmware flashing application like ClockworkMod ROM manager that is downloadable on Play Store what I'm trying to say is if you are using kingroot or kingoroot you're going to be hitting that button 4 million years and nothing will happen either by an Android that has a lower version like any version below 5.0 or get yourself a computer and do some research because it is very easy to do the stuff as long as you know what you're doing if you don't it seems way more complicated than it actually is you're in the right place here on XDA to learn everything you need to know so you're off to a great start I hope this helps have a good one good luck
So is there no way we can downgrade further to a firmware that includes the developer option to oem unlock?... I'm about to try and flash what the op posted right now... I'll post results

Currently latest binary there isnt any unlock for but I am working on it some. It is one of the more difficult ones to do due to Sprints new security. Only one team so far (at least made public) has done unlocks for it. If you have older binary builds there are some unlocks available on clangsm forum. Might check there.
Well not so much of a challenge anymore I guess on this one. The Yemen fellows have managed to unlock this long ago and now it seems everyone has a solution for it heard so much for Sprint's latest RSA haha

Hey there nice to meet you. Pretty much the 337 P can be rooted if you have cheated PRP for it that is about the easiest way to go about it. You can also get the boot image and go ahead and use it with magisk in a Flash the boot image back get it rooted and then use something like AAP ke flasher to flash TW RP but again you would need a custom as men are built in mine is not finish it. However you will run into some issues if you do the ladder as they will need to be signed images at least I have came to find out. And remember Ruth should be treated all up most respect otherwise you will have a phone that is vulnerable to just about everything in the world haha. Take care

However you will run into some issues if you do the ladder as they will need to be signed images at least I have came to find out. And remember Ruth should be treated all up most respect otherwise you will have a phone that is vulnerable to just about everything in the world haha. Take care

getting bootloader code hash?

Hi,
Since Huawei closed giving away bootloader codes,
and I've blowed 60 USD on dc unlocker,
is there a way to get the bootloader code hash to decrypt it with hashcat, for example?
Best Regards,
Aleksander
Don't know about that but do you want to unlock your bootloader?

Yes but don't know how to get the bootloader code
Downgrade as low as possible and give it a try.
haexhub/huaweiBootloaderHack: Huawei-unlock-bootloader (github.com)
Edit:
First Download This -> SkyEmie/huawei-honor-unlock-bootloader: A simple tool for managing Huawei/Honor devices to unlock bootloader (github.com)
then grab unlock.py from haexhub and replace it. Then its a 'All-in-One Package' - no need to install anything.

THANKS A LOT M8!!!!!!!!!!!
I've started the program but i am just curious how many different codes/how many attempts can there be in total?
Thats a good question, im sure u can find the answer in one of the 2 repos. One is endless (pure bruteforce) vs IMEI + HASH.
I'm still too lazy to Downgrade my Phone to give it a try (with out rebooting every 4 attempts), because no clue if its worth all the effort, as Huawei modding / hacking seems like almost dead.

Ok thanks I've started the brute force the day same as u shared the github links and it's still on attempt around 97k so I'am still trying...
But do u know if it's possible to copy the WHOLE boot partition without unlocking bootloader?
Oh wow! Didnt expect that it might take this long.
And no, sorry. But i doubt that its possible, otherwise some sneaky hackers would found that gloryhole already.

Only Paid atm, and only P20(Pro).
There is free method, your devices are on the list and can be unlocked. See my post.

This is something completely different, I guess you didn’t check links to helpful topics, so I’m attaching them again: first and second.

I have just successfully unlocked the bootloader lock by the Taobao service CNY30. It is done by PC remote control. My P10 phone (VTR-AL00) was firstly downgraded from my EMUI 9.1 to EMUI 5. Then the operation was very fast (ROM firmware loading time was long) & I can't see clearly. At last it was successfully unlocked & the guy gave me the unlock code also. If you guys want to do this, you need to ask a friend who know Chinese writing to chat on the net. Then I upgraded the phone using Huawei official upgrade from the phone to EMUI 9.0. Then I flashed the openkirin ROMs successfully. I've tried all four ROMs (RR, OMNI, AOSP, AEX). All of them have some bugs. One important one is the phone can't be charged when powered off. It will go to bootloader mode when plugged with the charging cable. You need to charge when the phone is on.
Install testpoint drivers ( https://files.dc-unlocker.com/share.html?v=share/18B15B9D02C945A79B1967234CECB423 - these worked for my p10 lite), enter download mode via testpoints then use PotatoNV - https://github.com/mashed-potatoes/PotatoNV , i just did this two days ago then installed twrp and rooted with magisk, fairly simple and insanely useful, only drawback is you need to open up your phone back cover to do it. Works without downgrading on Emui 8
THANKS GUYS FOR ALL YOUR HELP AND SUPPORT <3
I've succesfully opened my phone with dc unlocker
You may want to try the testpoint method. Worked like charm for me. Check potatonv git and YouTube..
Once we find the code, bootlocker unlocking factory reset it?
