Hi,
Sorry my english but im from portugal and don't speak to much english.
I need a HUGE HEELP with my Huawei Ideos X5 (U8800).:crying:
I will try to explain:
After try update, the update fails and the phone "died" (bricked, i guess), but i searched about the problem where and got success ("U8800 Software Upgrade Guideline"), the phone "wake up" and got me to blue screen and pink screen (power + Vol +).. but then i dont know what do next and do ****
I mess up the partition and deleted some ones (the little ones), and the phone "died" again, but this time the steps that i used on the first time doest work any more. I try everything and no success :crying:
I'm a beginner in android, but this time i mess up , right ?
Is any solution for this ? To recovery the partition ? Don't know, need help. Can someone help me ?
my u8800 die after this ?
(I attach a "example" of the partitions i delete on windows 7 "disk management". Delete 2 or 3 partitons, i guess)
Plz answer me
What are the contents of the sdc1 (/cust partition with image folder inside it)?
The partition table looks fine though. And what do you mean by "died", just shut screen off? Try doing the update while attached to USB, or even without battery (using USB as power).

Thanks for the answer ,
I mean, my phone (huawei u8800) won't turn on.. is dead .. won't respond.. i guess that because i (dont know why) deleted some partitions "unallocated". And after that the phone doesnt turn on again.
the attachement that i put on the first question is just a example of the partitons.. before i mess up my partitions are like the image i attach. you understand ? sorry my english
I'm not dev and i send my phone to technical service two times. First time; dark screen, no respons any bootloop etc. and came back to with new main card because it was damaged. At second time was same as dark screen, no bootloop etc. and came back with new updated rom b528.
You must calm down.
Do you have b518 or higher version? If you answer is yes go to copy it sd card. But you must create a folder with named "dload". Your update.app must be inside "dload" folder.
Infact when you look at your version, u will see step1 folder. If you look in, you will see dload folder again. Copy or cut it and then paste to main directory.
Just relax, drink water or what if you want .
Replace your battery. When you connecting cable to pc or some have usb plug doesn't matter (tv,DVD player). IMPORTANT!!!UNINTERRUPTED POWER SOURCE. When you connecting cable to SOURCE you must press power button, volume + button and volume - button at the same time. If your problem is only software this is your medicine; DON'T FORGET IT: IDE(A)OS NOT DIE.

If you deleted mmcblk0p2 (/dev/sdc2), then it's done for good (you deleted bootloader partition). The only way to fix it is through hardware modification, and we haven't covered yet how to do the software part yet. The "unallocated" parts just show Huawei's faults in the allocation. Ideally, there would be no such space between these partitions.

There's always JTAG, but our phone has 6 test pins that are used to check the phone's motherboard to see if all connections are working. One of those pins had to be shorted, which would let the phone turn on into QHSUSB_DLOAD mode. However, we haven't got farther than that. It's a risky procedure aswell.
The repair shop can use JTAG if they know, however most of them will just replace the motherboard for a nice fee.

Huawei's out of the new models:Huawei honor 3 c
But do you still get to the pink screen? How did you "delete" those partitions?
the above in Portuguese
Mas ainda consegues chegar ao ecran rosa? Como é que apagaste essas partições?
There is no need to panic.
This happened with me also.
I guess you have tha dload folder and put the official update file into it.
Connect the USB cable to PC(I don't know what it does but it works).
Press VOL+, VOL- and POWER key
It will start installing.
Try both the official Huawei roms 2.2 and 2.3 in this way.
If if you have managed to get the pink screen. Try different recoveries and ROMS.
For me I put the following recovery
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1288223
And tried different Roms but only Cynmobile worked
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2044617
And after this I could flash the official Roms as it is.
Hi all,
Some days ago I tried to modify my system partition to have more free space to install jb roms.but when I tried to install the zip for the partition ,it failed. Now when I try to install the official update, it failed at step 2/2 just before the end.also if I connect the phone to the usb without battery it shows the image I attached.Can I do something or I bricked it?

ok...I'm really new to all this so please show a little patience towards me!
I was trying to load the XDA-developers-SER-v12 on my phone and just when it started with the progress bar moving at the top of the PPC screen, when it said "Do not Remove Device..." I accidently lifted the phone out of the cradle as dumb as I am...! After that I tried to hard start it by shoving a pin on the hole in the right side under the battery icon with the cross (hard-reset) and got the Bootloader 5.17 screen with the three colors and GSM (OK) there when I pressed the soft-reset and power buttons simultaneously.
But since I was the idiot and could not understand what was going on, as I was not in this forum nor even behind a computer, I reset it again and again a couple of more times. Now present situation; I have the same "Do not Remove..." screen everytime I do a hard or soft reset even if I keep the power on/off button pressed alongwith pressing the hot or cold boot buttons on the left and right corners respectively. In fact the screen has gotten badly distorted but the same "Do not Remove..." comes up in the totally distorted state on the screen and the Bootloader or the colors, nothing comes up anymore.
When I try to put the phone on the charger, the light goes orange just as if it is charging, in fact, after an hour or so, just as it normally would in the correct phone state, it turns green.
Is my phone toast or can I still do something about it?
Munz.
I'm no expert, but it seems to me that if there is a complication with the software when loading, one should try using the sd method of rom flashign. Cook or dl a rom, use XDA tools to load it to an SD, put the SD into the device, and then use the bootloader to load off of SD. Other than that, I know little to nothing.
Good luck!
Search in the forum after SD Card flashing for the Wallaby.
This would fix your device...

Re: Dead SX-56
You guys are good and quick....but!!! As I mentioned, I can't even see the Bootloader even after a reset and power button combo...nothing comes up or happens...the screen just blinks and then goes blank...should I open it up and disconnect the battery or something...? Right now I am just seeing the screen saying "Do not Remove...." and that even in a totally distorted form....
Try pushing a pin in the hard reset, push once only, leave it overnight, I think that is good as removing battery as it disconnects the connection between battery and mainboard as fas as I know. Next morning push once with oin again, you never know your luck. Its weird that the bootloader should be affected however the good thing is that your gsm seems ok and the xda is charging.
XDA Dead!
Thanks for the reply...I have just pushed the pin and am leaving the XDA in that state for the whole day...hope it revives back...its presently just giving me a garbled screen and nothing else...even when I press the power and hard reset together, it comes back to the garbled screen and nothing else...I'll take your advice and not touch it after the above for the day and let you know what happens, if there is any other advice I would highly appreciate it...
Bootloader Malfunction
You mentioned that your bootloader seems to be screwed up. Download the full version of XDA tools WITH the bootloader and Programme A. Grab yourself a new ROM of your choosing, lumpistefan's kitchen, etc. Then use the XDA tools to write the bootloader and the rom to your SD card. After that hard booting the device with the SD card installed should ask you if you want to flash the device.
I noticed that if you have XDA tools without the bootloader file it will write the rom to your SD and you will NOT be able to get to the flash your device screen.
This is the only way to do it since your device will not boot to a rom. Upgrades from manufactures and roms prepared with Programme A all require MS Active Synch AND a good working connection.
If you have a SD card prepared with the ROM and the bootloader the right way, it should almost be foolproof from what I understand.
Hope this helps, I was in much the same situation
XDA Dead!
Yups! I tried to boot it from an SD Card, its not exactly an SD Card but an MMC Card (128MB). It still comes up to the same garbled screen which is more garbled than ever before! Does not ask me for anything; or even confirms anything...It does not do anything else besides the screen even after a soft reset/hard reset or a combo hard/soft power button reset.
I'm really totally stuck...Any ideas will be much appreciated!
Thanks.
Your XDA is completely dead; you screwed OS ROM and bootloader.
Forget SD or Details method, it won't work for you!
Re: Dead SX-56
Can you help me fix it please? What do I need to do?
Bootloader
The more experienced members of this forum can correct me on this, but I have been under the impression that the SD method of flashing does not require an intact OS ROM or bootloader on the device.
If you created the SD correctly, it should contain its own bootloader. Just putting it in the unit and then reseting it should come up with the screen to flash the device.
Did you create the SD card with XDAtools? Did you also have the bootloader file in the /bin directory when you did it?
If a properly created SD "flash" card cannot fix your problem, then you really might have no choice to but to get it professionally repaired where the remove the chips themselves and replace them.
I think you may even be in luck. www.pocketpctechs.com probably can do this and they are located in Fountain Valley, CA about 4 hours away from you. They can also put in bigger memory and batteries at the same time at a discount if you are getting it repaired
Re:
Thank you so much for the reply...I will try it once more; although, yes I have tried the same thing before and made the MMC Card through the XDATools, but never hurts to try again...I'll double check on the bootloader again too this time...
If you can, please send me the contact information for the people who fix the XDA's professionally as you mentioned in the USA somewhere near me preferably, I am in San Jose, CA...I'll try to contact them also...
Best Regards.
Contact Information
Their website is www.pocketpctechs.com.
You can find all the contact information right there. As far as I know fountain valley is about 4-5 hours away from San Jose.
Similar problem:
I have a XDA I here, which has a similar problem:
It boots with the welcome to T-Mobile screen, and
it shows at the bottom of the screen 4.01.16 after a while R4.06 and after a while G32S54. The machine locks-up and does not respond to anything except the touch screen. If i tap the screen, the backlight turns on, and a
rotating 'wait' icon appears. That's it. I am not able to put it in Bootloader mode by pressing power - > reset, so i cannot reflash the unit using SD.
I guess the former user has tried to reflash the unit, and had put the OS overwriting the bootloader, OTOH, the unit seems to run *some* code, since it responds to taps on the screen, by turning on the backlight.
Any guru have any clue on this one? I could not find anything in the forums, while the forums are VERY helpful in the past.
GreetingZ,
Richard

<<I am not able to put it in Bootloader mode by pressing power - > reset, so i cannot reflash the unit using SD>>
I really do not understand that. I am not a Guru by any means, and I hope one does make a comment on this.
As far as a I can tell by my own experiences, you do not need to put it in Bootloader mode by presseing power-reset. That is totally unneccessary to flash the unit. In fact, in Bootloader mode I have never found any command or method to flash the unit from the sd card. Only methods to backup the rom to the sd card. So I am really really confused to hear you guys say that.
I have successfully flashed XDA's with 2 methods. Programme A by which the XDA is connected to Active Synch 3.7 and by an SD card created by XDAtools.
Programme A only seems to work when there are NO problems at all and you just want to upgrade or try something else.
The SD card method seems to be the choice for repair.
Creating the SD card with XDAtools *WITH* the bootloader file in the /bin directory does work. The SD card I created with this method DID not, i repeat, DID not need the Bootloader (power-reset). It only needed to be powered on with the SD Card in the XDA.
If there are any Gurus moderating this post, I would sincerely appreciate having this cleared up

I also have a good working unit, and testing my SD card, created with XDARIT in this unit tells me i need to press power -> reset to be able to
flash the unit. if i do'nt hold the power button, the unit boots normally.

It is only there when you have the SD card in the device, otherwise you cannot find it by moving around through the different menus.
XDAArit is completely outdated. You need to get their new tool.
XDATools can be downloaded from the website here. The best thread that talks about the tool is:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=2189&highlight=xdatools
The exact link to get the tool and all the supporting files, including the bootloader is:
http://cuba.calyx.nl/~jsummers/XDA/XDAtools-Jeff.exe
When you install this version of XDAtools you will find a directory called binaries. Under it there should be a file called "bootloader_v5_15.nb0"
Use the tool to create your SD card with a .nb1 file of your choice. After that it should only be a matter of powering on the device with the SD card inside the unit.
I have 2 XDAs. 1 good en 1 have problem with bootloader and rom.
I can't access Wallaby bootloader en the OS don't start.
I backup it from good XDA in the bootloader (ce+Boot) and i pushed my SD in the XDA where problems are..
He don't work. How can I fix my problem..
Please Help...
I am not aware of what the (ce+boot) actually creates on the SD card. If that is the exact ROM that you want, I would suggest downloading the full version of XDA tools, and I think you can use it to copy the ROM from the SD card to a .nb1 file on your computer. Then follow the instructions I have already posted to make the working SD card that will flash the XDA.
When it comes to the SD card, the only time I have ever been successfull is when creating it with XDAtools with a .nb1 file and the bootloader .nb0 file inside the binaries directory.
That's it. I have never been able to do it any other way. Programme A does not count since it requires an active and working OS and connection to the PC and most people that are in trouble don't have that.
Alpine R.I.P.
Hello First of all to excuse the translation for the reason that my level of English is null and I must myself serve as tools like google to translate.
I have a problem and salary if some of you happens some solution to you since I no longer have but ideas. I have tried to change to the one language alpine (xdalli) and the result has been death.
The steps:
1: Copy original ROM (in English) with romupdate.
2: To pass copied ROM to the PC with ntrw.
3: Once copied to separate the ROM in three parts (header.nb1, ext.img and trailer.nb1) with split.
4: With the publisher hex workshop 4,2 to copy the head of the file header.nb1 removed from xdalli and to copy it in the file header.nb1 of 2020i_XDII_cambio_idioma_esp_by_ferdy (ROM in Spanish). Thus we would obtain that xdalli when loading the new ROM by SD in Spanish thought that this about English when really this in Spanish.
5: Once kept the file header.nb1 modified I have mounted rom.nb1 uniting the 3 parts with merge (before divided with split header.nb1, ext.img and trailer.nb1.) So it would be left header.nb1 modified, ext.img and trailer.nb1 are the original ones of xdalli.
6: To copy with ntrw in the SD.
7: To put xdalli bootloader with the SD inside and leaves message SD download press to power to flash.
8: Once fact this and finished updating reset.
9: And here it is where one dies.
These are the followed steps, now pda does not start neither in normal way nor in bootloader nor reset nor hard reset. KO
Some idea please, although is absurd since xda does not respond to anything.
Thanks and I wait for your ideas.
PS: of brave this the full cemetery. Who would command to touch xdalli to me. jejjejeje
Does it write anything on the screen? Or nothing at all? Try to remove and insert battery again.
get into bootloader, put in cradle n upgrade your ROM. g00d luck!
p/s:Enter to Bootloader Mode by press Power + Record Button and Soft Reset.
hi clustered,
The problem is that it does not enter nor bootloader. If it entered already she would be alive.
greetings
hi server
I cannot write nothing in the screen and believe that the reason went that when doing upload before described to him loaded bootloader to me.
I have tried to leave the battery that exhausted days and when I put it in the base ignites the red light of load nothing else but.
Also I have tried to put it in load without battery and to tighten the button of ignition and nothing.
I have put myself in contact with pof to comment the problem to him and it has commented to me that a serious solution jtag and to load to him to bootloader new but not it encounter for alpine.
If some solution is happened to you but it would be arranged to make it since this dead now.
Thanks and greetings
Hey guys,
first, im sorry for opening a new thread, but none of the other threads helped me.
I bought a HTC Touch 3G Clone in China:
ROM: 2.706.2
QUALCOMM 7225
528 Mhz
RAM: 192MB
NEXPERIA SY.SOL 5209
Windows 6.5 Chinese
HardSLP doesn't work. It cant get a connection to the phone, although ActiveSync has one.
Then i tried to upgrade with my 1gb sd-card. But none of the button-combinations of this forum work.
I tried some other comb. and found three of them:
green button + red button + power --> reset config
vol up + vol down + power --> calibration screen
vol up + red button + power --> a white screen with "downloading"-label
vol down + red button + power --> a green/white screen saying: Checking valid image file
I think the last one is important to install a new rom. After 10 seconds it says:
Step 3 error while updating
Card operate: read retry timeout
Then i tried several rom-versions posted here. Nothing happens.
I just want an english operating system...
I really hope someone can help me. Its driving me crazy...
Thank you for your help.
Buddy close this thread & go 2 Touch 3G General -where u have posted ur thread- & read other threads, many can help.
HSPL does not work 4 cloams!! & also u can't use those custom ROMs on cloam!
check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=580367&page=3 but make the "hxxp" correct!
Also http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=657212 links.
Search more, u will find stuff. If u follow the General forum related 2 cloams (clones) u will get more! U shall use a ROM working 4 cloam. Mine is T3238+, I'll try 2 help as far as my knowledge lets me!
Thank you for your help.
Sure, I can post my problem there. But I already read them and it didnt help. I tried both of the ROM-files. I get the same error:
Step 3 error while updating
Card operate: read retry timeout
I have a 1GB sd-card, formated in standart windows-fat-format.
I think there must be another button-combination for the update mode.
But like i said none of the combinations mentioned in the board work, and there are plenty of them...
In your second link I have seen:
3) Boot into TF Update Mode by holding the Green + Confirm + Red + Power Button
I tried it, nothing happens (if the confirm button ist the round big one in the middle)... What should I do?
Hi again,
Yes, confirm = big button; only use the ROMs 4 cloam phones not those 4 real 1s.
Seems that ur phone starts reading the file but stops in the middle, this means u have gone 2 update mode, only it can't continue; try another SD card.
-- Mine is Touch 3G T3238+. By far NO key comb. has worked 4 me. Seems that these cloams don't have a booter like other 1s.
I turned off my phone -> connected it 2 PC w/ WMDC -> Vol. down + green + power => a menu screen appeared!! w/ options like "update OS", "update logo" & ...
C if this works 4 u, though "update OS" did not work on my phone but mine has sum other problems 2, so u give it a try.
-- Turn ur phone off, insert the SD & just turn it on normally, this shall start reading SD.
Don't make the card as FAT 32 (though not possible!), only FAT or FAT 16.
Don't put the ROM in a folder on SD, let it be on the root directory.
-- Once open SD w/ ur phone -as u open e.g. "My document" - & c what message it shows? Does it even read the card??
Thank you very much for your help. I finally made it.
The trick ist to use a ROM with a .bin-format and rename it to "k3img.bin"
The update mode doesnt accept other names.
I flashed my phone to windows mobile 6.1 eng. version.
Now i have a bunch of other problems. Bad key mapping, no camera... and the biggest problem: the phone doesnt find any storage cards.
Under Settings-System-Memory it says: "Total storage card memory: Not installed".
What can i do? I need that extra storage.... And now i cant get into the update mode because windows deleted the old button map. Tried any combination, doesnt work.
Please help.
Hi again,
Well, I am a noob myself!! unfamiliar w/ these phones!! but I think keys problem is bcoz of the ROM; though it is installed, but it's not the proper 1!
Check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=662170&highlight=QUALCOMM seems that this "first aid" has helped!!
Trying another ROM, BUT now that u can't use SD ......!! also the PC does not run .bin or .upr files!! Mayb if u change the file 2 .exe, it gets installed (of course after sync.!)
2 get 2 update mode, c if connecting 2 PC (my prev. post) does any good!!
I don't know any way; In sum days I shall go 2 the phone service center 4 my phone; I'll ask 2 c if they knew any way & [/I]if if they let me know about it[/I]!!

Dear developers,
I have deleted (by mistake) program Launcer from my Smartphone and now it is not going to load. When I turn on it, there is only symbol of IDEOS. After a minute symbol starting to twinkle, but system not loading.
Could you please tell me how can I return to original firmware?
I hope someone will be able to support me.
If the launcher is the problem, you can just install another, or push again the original from a rom via adb. I assume that the device is rooted(I think you cannot delete a system app if isn´t). If you can connect to pc, then possibly you can install a launcher from huawei' s suite(I´m not sure because I don' t use windows and I haven't try this app) or from a android file manager like QtADB, Android commander or Droid Explorer. You can also install it only with adb via windows command prompt:

And maybe, if wifi is enabled and connected, you can just install a launcher from market via pc' s web browser:

The Modaco wiki has a list of original firmwares, but no link to Huawei works anymore. However, it is possible to download the latest China Unicom firmware - which does contain english language support. That should at least get you started.
As a new user I can't post links yet, but it is easy to find if you look for u8800 software, and then switch to Chinese.
Put the extracted directory (dload) on an sd card, in the top/root, put it in the phone and then hold volume down and power on.
Note, this will blow everything away to start from scratch so make sure it is what you want. In addition everything will be in Chinese so you need to be able to navigate to the settings to set it to English.
Better ideas? I am a noob myself so no guarantees...
I have unrooted it before to delete some trial games. And deleted Launcher by mistake.
I can't connect via usb now.
I'm afraid if I upgrade firmware, I have less memory because old one will not be deleted. Or maybe I'm wrong?
No, you're not gonna have less memory.
Did you tried to wipe to factory defaults from recovery mode(power button and vol+)?
You will not have less space because an original firware will format everything from boot partition, system and data... Basically , it will give you original software and status like it came from factory ... Like the other user said, jut find it, extract it , put the dload directory to the root of you sd card and hold volume down and start up the phone ... You will see a progress bar and when it is finished , the phone will restart itself, you will have to wait longer due to the creation of new files and there you go

Install recovery first, then you can connect your device to PC using recovery. If you have friend that have X5, copy the launcher. Else, just install Custom ROM.
The old one will be removed if you install custom ROM. If I'm not wrong.
Recovery.
Unplug USB, turn off your phone, press and hold vol + and -, then press power. Hold those three buttons until it turned on and the screen is purple-pink.
Backup all image data(copy). The rest is in the link.
Sorry for my English. Hope you understand what I write..

You are magician. it works now.
hmmm... but there is no launcher application - no workspace available. it doesn't want to load as before. strange.
upgrade don't work too. It is cycle repeating of step1/2.
I just tested and found that you can copy the missing apk from bootloader mode. In this mode(power + vol- + vol+ buttons), when connected to pc via usb cable all partitions of device mounted(at least this happens on linux). So, you can navigate to system partition on /system/app folder and copy there the missing launcher' s apk file. You can find this file on a custom' s rom(or on an official' s rooted rom like modaco's roms) update.zip file. It's on system/app folder. I tested this on linux and I could(not as normal but as root user though) copy or delete files from there.
dancer_69, thank you for your support. At my side when I connect via bootmode, there is only flashdrive is visible.
It's really strange that it is not going to upgrade.
I'm able to apply sdcard:update.zip. So maybe if to put this application inside of the card, it could install. but I don't know how to do it.
I finded apk file and tried to install it but it don't receive file because it hasn't some certificate. ???
I think you have 3 options here.
1. flash an official rom(you put the dload folder of rom's zip file on root of sdcard and boot to bootloader mode. The update starts automatic)
2. Use a linux system(maybe a livecd) to access the other partitions.
3. Try to reroot the device from pc, via superoneclick app(you can find it here), so to have access to system again.
but I haven't access to installation program area. nothing!
I have only ability by pressing (vol + and on) to choose install update.zip from flash card.
so.
1. when I runned new firmware from dload it didn't install. it was cycling at first level (1/2)
2. linux is good idea. but I'm not sure that it's will be profitable. maybe I have turned off access to partitions inside of phone
3. I can't install superoneclick as I'm not able to install any application.
I hope we are closer to some geniously idea. I have bought phone yesterday and we haven't service center in our city. So, I need to buy the other one.
This is not so serious problem, it' s not hardware, it´ software related. And I think you cannot turn off access so easy.
The superoneclick is a pc application. You don't need to install something on device(if I remember well, because I use it once before a long time). You can try it.
And you can try linux too.
I don't think that this is a problem that only service can solve it.
What firmware you tried? Try another one. And better try to find the one that you device has(if you know it)
Thank you for positive opinion.
1. Will try to change firmware as you said. Try 2 more firmware from Huawei.
2. Superoneclick needs approval from phone, today night I wasn't able to run it.
3. I'll try Linux too.

Thank you very much for your excellent support. It's work now after trying of other firmware. Everything is excellent now.
I only noticed that battery is no very capacitive.
Please, send me your paypal account, I want to donate you a little.
Hi.
- I had ideos x5 with Ics Aurora (2.2).
- After with no backup i changed services.jar
- Then when i open my phone, always reset and starting again.
- So im open on clockworkmod and try restore to android 2.3 version
- While restoring app give an error and restore can't finish.
- After i restart phone. Then bad ! Clockworkmode can't open.
- Volume + and Power button > Pink screen but only external sd card shown
- I can't reach internal sd card for changing system files.
- Now android can't open with any process, always reseting. and clockworkmode can't open.
Please give me a idea. I'm fully desperate now !!
Have you tried installing 2.3 the normal way without using a clockworkmod backup? Grab a copy of b526 (or whatever one you prefer), put the dload folder on the external SD, the boot the phone by holding volume +, volume-, power.
That's what I would try first.
tried..
yes i tried this.
- HUAWEI_U8800_Android 2.3 V100R001C00B526G001 i downloaded.
- put in external with dload directory UPDATE.APP file.
- and open v+ , v- , power.
- pink screen coming but updating never start !
- always pink screen ..
Have you tried accessing the pink screen through Linux? I find sometimes that the phone can be a little more responsive to Linux than windows.
Thx a lot man
Thanks for all replies man
- Finaly i copied bootloader.bin to external and also copy firmware update.bin to external.
- when starts with vol+ vol- and power now installing firmware
No worries. I looked this up a bit more and it turns out that 2.3.5 has a locked bootloader, so you would never have been able to access it in pink screen anyway. Also learnt that I need to study a lot more about how my phone actually works
