So i recommanded a ZTE blade to a friend who wanted a cheap smartphone.
ZTE Gen 1 - 3.2MP (Belgium - Mobistar - Model name "San Francisco")
Installed the latest CM7 Stable upgrading it to GEN2.
Worked fine but now's he's suddenly having issues with the build-in speakers and we are quite certain that it's a hardware problem.
Now i would like to restore it to a stock ZTE rom to test the device and if needed return it to the store (with an explanation what happend)
I'm a bit uncertain on how to do this and these forums don't make it any easier since there seem to be different version of this phone!
Could anyone point me in the right direction?
I've tried a lot of different Rom's for my ZTE Blade and so far I find LeWa ROM is the best of the lot.
I'm currently on version LeWa ROM V880 12.03.22
I see there is an update but for some reason can't seem to download it from the phone and install it.
So far this ROM has been the very best mix of being stable, fast and look amazing.
The menu system is the best I've seen.
I would however like to get rid of the lat bit of Chinese writing and have the entire ROM in English.
Anyone else a fan?
Anyone else managed to upgrade to a newer version?
Their website looks so professional but it's all in Chinese so I'm stuck
I'd post the link but I'm not allowed to post external links
BTW I just noticed my possible mistake - on the offical LeWa website there is a U880 ROM and a V880 ROM I think I tried to install the wrong one last time "U" instead of "V"
Anyway I upgraded to the very latest version of this ROM for V880 ZTE Blade and it works great.
Although at first boot the lock screen was totally unresponsive and none of the key would work but booting into ClockWork Mod and wiping all the various data nd caches solved the problem
This is by far the best looking ROM I've ever used on my ZTE Blade and that includes ICS ROM's.
Has anyone managed a to successfully get a gen3 blade to take a custom rom?
Got clockwork on and working, but tried swedish snow and zte blade shonk neither will boot past the green android logo?
Any ideas, as I now have a dud phone, even the bog std orange 2.3.5 rom would do for now, can't seem to find that anywhere?
I think the Gen3 Blade supports cm7.2
Not sure though. U can test it if u want
KonstaKANG works on GEN3. There's a separate ZIP to flash after flashing the main rom and gapps.
Look at second post: http://www.modaco.com/topic/355059-romgen23227-cyanogenmod-9-konstakang-android-404/
Orange 2.3.5 rom? Are you sure you have a Blade? Is it a San Francisco or a San Francisco 2? They're totally different phones. AFAIK Orange didn't do a 2.3.5 rom for the Blade. If you really do have a gen3 blade (not blade2/crescent/san francisco 2 or any other phone) then you should convert it to gen2, easiest way is using the tpt helper app.

Depending on which gen3 you have you might not be able to convert it to gen2.
I know the Swedish gen3 Blades cannot be converted and if you try you'll end up with a blue screen with white stripes across it.
NO TPT's work for this blade apart from the windows gen3 TPT, not even the gen3 TPT's from Amphoras work, they all give the same result.
But yeah, you can either use the MMHP patch if you want to run SS RLS7 or the newer patch (it's in the KonstaKANG thread), it will work for ANY rom apart from SS RLS7.

Installed in ZTE BLADE Q MINI!! IT WORKS!! Everything seems working fine, although I hate xtreme os logos everywhere, strange implements, and that boot music scared **** outta me, and waked up my sister. LOL. Anyways, well done.
Thanks. :good:
Ok, I tested it, and it's not 4.4.2 , its, JB, what a shame >
tried this one too. Will probably go back to it after I try stock for a while.
some people format after wipe - I never have. should I?
big thanks anyway vaserbanix
been using this Rom (mini) for a couple of months now and all good. big thanks!
been thinking if partitioning sd card for more apps - one thing that worries me is the fact that this Rom doesn't seem to see the sd card as separate storage anyway. Will I get problems if I try this and is there another approach to this problem?
TWRP??
I have a TWRP recovery installed on my blade q maxi..you said it can only be installed with cwm.. I am wondering can this ROM be installed with TWRP?
