[Q] Advent - only half of screen responds - Vega General

Hey Guys,
Strange question, My Advent Vega tablet was working great, i've been using it for a while, and yesterday it had problems booting, but re-flashed it with the stock ROM, and now only half my screen responds, the right hand side is dead, its weird its literally 50/50.
Has anyone ever heard of this problem?
any ideas on what i could do?
Thanks for your time and effort.

the screen neet a "screen-calibration", this is an app.
it is included in modaco 8.
if is possible than install modaco8, or download modaco8 , extract it and install the app on your rom.
\files\system\app\Screencalibration.apk
i hope this help

after the install of the stock rom, I am unable to get past the base info form thingy
because i do not have CWM or a ROM manger on it, is there any way i can put a new ROM on it, maybe a custom rom of some sort.
Thanks

Problem with Baldoz Rom 5.0 in Developers Part!

Hi there an good evening. I have a major problem with the Custom Rom Baldoz Rom5.0, just released today.
I cant post in the developers thread, cause i dont have 10 posts, sadly. So i need to post it herer
Just downloaded it, disabled lagfix via CWM (Darkys Rom9.5) and wiped. After this i installed the new rom. Looks good in the first place. But im not satisfied with the performance so i tried to get back to Darkys via CWM, but now i have the problem:
Its not possible via the 3-key method to go into recovery. Just stucks at Galaxy s IT9000 and didnt go any further.
Removed battery, but that didnt solve anything.
Hope, u can help me. Would be great
Try to go in recovery mode using extended Power menu
The same here! Stuck and missing appz

[Q] Clockwork recovery problems ???

Hi people,
I'm having a problem and hope your vastly superior knowledge will help me out..
I am struggling to get clockwork recovery to boot into recovery mode... I have tried through booting with volume down and also from rom manager.. but wont access recovery....
I have successfully loaded JJ and swedish spring previously with no problems and swedish spring rls5 is running fine. I am trying to load a replacement rom, portugese spring rls3b. and struggling...
Am i doing something wrong or missing the blindingly obvious ???
All help or advice gratefully recieved.
What happens when you try to go into recovery?
I appear to have solved my own problem !!!!!
I had spent ages trying before i resorted to posting on hee for your help...
However i then downloaded the latest recovery image and then tried Fix Permissions in rom manager... Between these 2 things i was then able to boot into recovery and install new rom...
All seems well and just playing with new rom now to see if it is any better than swedish spring... Most people report it is faster and better for battery drain so will soon see.
Thanks for quick reply... I was just getting the green man until i eventually released my finger. It would then just boot normally.. All fixed now though thanks..
As a note for anyone else getting similar issues, i was flashing a few ZTE Blades the other week and found that more recent versions of clockworkmod was causing me similar problems, but the fix permissions didnt work.
The solution was to use clockworkmod 2.5.0.8 instead of the newer ones.

[Q] Restore to Original Settings

Hello Guys!
I just bought an Acer A500 in the US, and im having some troubles with the upadtes! I updated once, and everything was ok, and, after a while, a new update was available and I tried to update it again. I downloaded this 14Mb update, and when the sistem was loading it, it sudenly turned off! Now when I turn my tablet on, it shows the acer logo, the android looks to be loading, and then, it goes to the initial screen, but the touch screen doesn't work, and, after a while it turns off.
I'm not very sure, because I don't know very much about this kinds of things, but I think I should flash the Acer_A500_1.104.02_COM_GEN1 full rom! But I can't find it anywhere, since the link in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1113878 isn't working! I'm not intending to root it, but, if it's the only choice, I will do it!
Can someone help me?? Sorry for the not very good english =p
Flash HoneyComb 3.2
Try to flash some of the HoneyComb 3.2 full packages instead.
You can probually pick any of the HoneyComb 3.2 links from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1113878.
Do you already have recovery installed or was it totally stock?
Not sure which file you tried downloading that the link was broken, try a newer version maybe?
Try following these directions:
Try this:
- download acer stock Rom for the device found here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1113878
- unzip file and copy update.zip to external sd, root folder
- Boot Iconia tab in recovery Mode (press and hold volume down + power button)
- wait and pray...
- tab should reboot

Thank you very much, guys! But it didn't worked ;/
I downloaded the SD_Acer_A500_7.006.03_COM_GEN1_full_user, Acer_A500_7.006.01_COM_GEN2 and Acer_A500_4.010.38_COM_GEN1! Tried them all, but none has worked...
I press the volume down + power button, the recovery starts, but when it's almost ending the tablet stops working! The android logo with three "gears" inside stops moving...
I've never tried to recover my tablet before, and never rooted it also... What could be going on?? What else can I do? Thank you very much!!
I bought it from a small store in the US when I was there, and I'm afraid it was refurbished... and maybe it was rooted already. Is it possible? How can I check if it is rooted without turning it on?
Please, help me someone! Here in Brazil it's dificult to contact Acer... Thank you
Also, my mother has another iconia a500 that is working, so I think I could use it somehow...
Nobody??? :/
....... :////
Try using the second method of this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1276227 later install the Acer_A500_7.006.01_COM_GEN2 rom with the Recovery
Thank you very much, Edd!! I'm going to try it. I only have one question: I don't want to root my tablet, so, I only have to flash the unstable downgrade, and then flash the Acer_A500_7.006.01_COM_GEN2, right?? Or do I have to flash the unstable downgrade and root it to use the acer recovery installer?
Thank you very much man, I was almost hopeless! hehe
It didn' worked... ;/ I can't even install the unstable HC... the "downgrade" starts, but whent it is almost ending, the tablet stops working. The same that happens with every other update.zip file...
sorry to hear this.
i think maybe you can contact with acer us to see whether the manufactor can provide some help as well.
Yeah, I'm going to do it... Thank you anyway!

[HELP] ZTE Blade Q Maxi stock rom

Hi guys, after a year and a half of running custom roms, I am sick of it. My main problem is that I do not receive SMS messages when they should arrive. I receive them hours after they have been sent. Another problem is that sometimes, I can't be called. My phone doesn't display a call, or being called at all. But somebody is calling me and my phone doesn't say anything. So this is very frustrating because you can miss important calls without you even knowing. And this has been happening to me almost on every rom tried. They all work well for some time, but after they start to screw around and not be consistent.
My question is, how can I install the stock rom from Orange Reyo Romanian (ZTE BLADE Q MAXI) so that my issues will go away? I have cwm, but it seems that the firmware at the zte site is only installable with the stock recovery, not with a custom recovery like CWM or TWRP.
So yeah, any help would be much appreciated.
just copy the update .zip from zte syte on your sdcard and then install with twrprecovery!
i test it and it work
or you can download a stok backup for spflashtool posted by me on xda for restoring the phone stok rom
search it 2-3 pages back
it has a recovery stok too included
http:// http://forum.xda-developers.com/zte-blade/general/orange-reyo-stok-rom-backup-t3154351
Thank you! But what drivers do I need to install? SP flash tool does nothing when I connect the phone to te pc
Can I install it with CWM? As i have not installed TWRP on my phone

yea! loks like a drivers problem.

what windows do you have?
Sent from my ZTE Blade Q Maxi using Tapatalk
I have installed the drivers. But still doesn't work. Even when the phone is on, SP flash tool doesnt see it. I have windows 8.1. I run your zingerone rom. Maybe it is the problem that even when my phone is on, when I connect the phone, the pc doesnt see it? The pc doesnt see it at all, when i have the zingerone rom installed. SHould I install other rom and then try SP flash tool?
The backup cannot be installed with CWM?
Now, after installing drivers, i get another error. After i click download and connect my phone to pc, SP flash tool sees my phone, but de download bar is red, and after 3 seconds my phone disconects and i receive the error: PMT has changed; it must be downloaded. I have no idea what this means.
EDIT: IT WORKS! I managed to make SP flash tool see my device by flashing it. But, by flashing it, it bricked my phone. So I thought I'm screwed. But I installed the stock recovery from @vaserbanix and at least got the phone to boot, but it was stuck in bootloop. So i downloaded the update.zip from ZTE site and put it on my sd card, got into the stock recovery and managed to install the update.zip. And now my phone has the stock rom and is working flawlessly.
Thank you @vaserbanix my friend for your help. Also, how is your health? Are you feeling well, my friend?
Hi @deepside_dj,
Glad to know that you solved out your problem. I want to ask you, if you don't mind, do you have that problems regarding SMS messages and phone calls before you start installing customs ROM's? I have to ask you this because I received a Orange Reyo(Blade Q Maxi) branded by Orange, with exactly the same issue. In the company were I work, the phone was used internally, for GSM testing especially. And I understand from the test user that was using the phone, that, even if the phone was having the stock ROM on it, was having exactly the same issues sometimes.
For examples, some text messages were received just only when the phone receive a call, even if the message have been send with a few hours before, or something like this.
So, in this case, I'm wondering if actually the custom ROM's are the root cause.
Right now, I'm using the phone for test software development and also as a spare phone. And because of this, even if @vaserbanix have done a great job porting other ROM's for this phone, I already start working on a custom ROM for me to use that is going to be based on the stock one, but much more smaller and without that bloatware preinstalled on it. So I have to know at what to look after. Maybe is not the custom ROM's fault, but just an update or a wrong placed internal command that is interfering with the RIL normal execution with the radio hardware.
Best Regards,
DarKay

When I first got the phone, obviously, it had the stock rom. I used the stock rom for months on end, up until @vaserbanix ported the first rom for this device. While using a fresh stock rom, fresh as in directly from the factory, I didn't have any issues with calls/SMS. All came when they were supposed to. Even after using custom roms, for some time, i haven't encountered deal-breaking issues. Clearly not something as big as missing calls, that don't appear when they should etc. Well, all went good until all of a sudden I didn't receive calls. I was using the MIUI v5 rom, which is my favorite rom. I thought it might be a bug, so I flashed the rom again, but nope, the problem still persisted. Which was odd, since I was using that specific rom for months. After that, I tried many other roms ported by the one and only @vaserbanix until i settled on the Zingerone rom. This was the fastest and most clean looking rom for me, and I was happy that it ran good. Until, the issue with calls/sms not being received reappered. Which really frustrated me, because I lost an important call, without me even knowing it. That is when I had enough, so I installed the stock rom again, with a bit of work, but in the end the install was good.
So now I am using the stock rom, it has been only a day since I installed it, but it seems solid. Only time will tell. If I encounter the same issues, be sure I will report it here!
OK, thanks for the information. I wanted today to take the SIM card from the test operator to make some tests on the phone, to see if I can find something wrong with the card or the phone or at least, reproduce the issues, and found out that the SIM card was replaced. It looks like on another phone was still having the same issues. So in this case, it seems that the problem was with the SIM. I will make some logs on the phone to see if the problems resides also on it, especially now, because I modified and installed one of the custom ROM's build by @vaserbanix. Only the time will tell.
In the mean time, I have a new "toy" (Blade Q Maxi ) so I have to play with it a little bit, but I will let you know if the problems returns, or at list found the root cause of this, because I think you are going to get bored real soon of the stock ROM. See you soon.
I find Stock rom for ZTE Blade Q Maxi on this Site

A500 files

I know everyone has moved on away from this tablet but does anyone out there still have a collection of A500 bootloader or rom files they could share. I am looking for anything useful for the A500 while trying to revive mine. I am having a very hard time finding what I need. I have a few files but seems I am hitting a brick wall. Anything would work. If I find enough and it would be useful I could put these up on a website as a collection for anyone to use.
My A500 has skrilax V8 bootloader with TWRP installed on second kernel (it wont install on recovery partition for lack of space. Either way that works. I am having a terrible time getting a working rom installed. I tried a few stock rom's and finally got lightspeed_v8 to install but when it boots it goes directly to a full yellow screen with some kind of weird full screen design on it and thats it. It looks like graphic corruption or something but the bootloader and twrp screens are fine. Any thoughts? Thanks
