Wow this method works. thank you very much. My watch has successfully booted at last since it started to bootloop last march. Harisdev you are a miracle worker. Csonti02 thanks for the link. Both you guys saved me a lot of money (which I dont have much) I was already contemplating on returning the watch to china for repairs. I can not thank you enough.

Hi,
I'm having trouble in the last point of the first step.
I can only choose inf files, not ini files.
I am pretty sure i am following the steps right but i get stuck on that part.

ReadBack Extractor mtk6260 - firmware backup utility for GT08, DZ09, GV08 and so on..

Link to the latest readback extractor thread
It is applying for mtk6260A watch phones as GT08, DZ09, GV08, T7, Iradish Y6, Q8, F8 and all variations
In short - if you intend to install in your smartwatch new firmwares, mods etc, before to initiate any flashing with the Flash Tool app (pushing that goddamn < Download > button) think twice, 'bove all better DO a backup for the original firmware, why so? because it's containing all original drivers hence you'll be able to recover 100% your watch in case of bricking.
How to:
First you have need of a full dump of your ROM. Assuming that you already got a Flash Tool 5.1308 and drivers, and you were at the point of flashing something (already chose the download agent and scatter file)
for instance let's say you have a DZ09 smartwatch:
1 - press < Readback > in upper menu and so < Add > in the middle menu
2 - click twice on the item appears in the main window, set name as ROM_DZ choose in browser the path and save
3 - set as Physical start address 0x00000000 and as Length 0x01000000 then ok
4 - press < Readback > in the middle menu wait 2 seconds and connect through USB your watch
5 - wait until the upload is complete (big green ring)
Now second stage:
1 - download the app I've built attached here (Readback Extractor mtk6260A 1.0.rar) and unzip it
2 - create a folder where you intend to keep in safe the original firmware and name it for instance DZ09-Orig
3 - do a copy of Readback Extractor mtk6260A 1.0.exe and place it inside the DZ09-Orig folder then click twice on it
4 - press <Load Readback file> and browse after the ROM_DZ file created before with the Flash Tool then open
5 - Wait about two minutes while the app will check bit by bit the integrity of your file
6 - If everything went ok and your file is healthy app will show " health 100% " so you can proceed to next step
7 - Press <Rebuild Firmware> and wait about 5 to 10 minutes (it has a progress counter there)
8 - When will appear the message " - ALL DONE!!!" close app and go back in the DZ09-Orig folder, now you'll find there 5 new files which are the original firmware kit ready to be flashed back in your phone anytime you want
AFTERWARDS READ ME story - Anywhere you search, there is no one to tell you explicitly how to extract from your mtk smartwatch the firmware kit
All says a halfmouth: Do a full < Readback > in Flash Tool, you'll do it being confident that from now on you say goodbye to any risk because you have A BACKUP hence you start flashing new firmwares. And the Big Brick is coming , you smile and get back to your < Readback > backup discovering that, sadly, you have a binary bulk at first sight good for nothing. It cannot be so useless, isn't it? after all it contains full dump of your ROM! I was in exactly the same situation, so 'cause I didn't find any answer I've started reverse engineering . . . and it worked, first I did it manually for guys being in the same situation, 've noticed that is a common issue so I had to choose how to help, simpler but dangerous (for you) way, to create a tutorial <how to> or the hard way (hard for me), to develop an app which will do all "cooking" automatically and I choose the second because in manually way there is a quite big "chance" to mess up with your primary bootloader which could get to a real tragedy - no modem - brickest brick you saw in your entire life

thanks
thank you very much!!! I was searching how to backup my firmware and I found this forum!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Unfortunately, my time is quite limited,follow the steps in tutorial, if anything is unclear ask here

Thank you Golem_ for this nice tut.
Unfortunately with my GT08 the FlashTool doesn't seem to start the Read Back process. I see the watch in device manager (COM4), installed the MTK VCOM drivers. I can even access the AT interface of the watch (when the watch is powered on).
The steps i tried to perform are..
1) power off the watch
2) start flash tool, start the Read Back
3) connect the watch via usb --> COM4 appears in device manager
4) flash tool detects watch on COM4 port
5) nothing further happens - Read Back won't start (not even after 1 hour of waiting)..

you have to load a scatter file from a compatible firmware (just for initialization, not for flashing)

Unable to carry read back or memory test
Hi Golem,
Firstly please accept my appreciation for your indepth analysis and details that you have been sharing on forum..
I have been scratching since yesterday evening to do readback and install drivers , but am unable to do it succesfully. It I add drivers from device manager and then run the run back I get following error:
FLASHTOOL ERROR : S_BROM_CMD_STARTCMD_FAIL (2005)
[BROM] Can not pass bootrom start commabd! POssibly target power up too earlu.
[HINT]
Can you please help? I am scratching and trying various things - but I guess am missing something on the installation side... Tried installing with different versions including WIN XP Service pack2,3 etc. but no success... Same error when I run Memory test to check if indeed the drivers have installed..

Most common mistakes are not turning off the watch before connect to usb and connecting at usb before to start a command in flash tool. If these are not the issue then go in options/backup and restore and set on no action
Use your money wisely, DO NOT WASTE IT buying from GEARBEST

Thanks buddy.
Removed battery, tried again - changed USB cord - tried in different port - but still gives same error - Also changed setting to no action in Option-> Backup and Restore.... Few observations - on attaching cable the device manager shows device as Mediatek USB Port (Other drivers present being MTK USB PORT, MTK USB Modem Port, MTK USB debug port, USB Modem Driver. All with a COM port assigned. Then it tries to connect and gives this error.
When tried using download with scatter files and Download agent it again gives error - META ERROR - ERROR in BOOTROM COMMUNICATION.
Can you please help - I am thinking some issue with set-up or drivers... Your suggestion? Thanks!

official update to MARSHMALLOW 6.0 for LG MAGNA

Hello people ...
Here it's official ... since two days ago the official update for our LG MAGNA for version 6.0 of Android.
We had to wait a long time .. but ... essentially it's there.
Contrary to what I expected ... it is very well done ... I mean the LG interface with this version of MM. The least I can say is that it is purified ... LG overlay is married to that of pure Android ... finished the coarseness of the characters and the colors too dull (for my taste) of LG interface .
Frankly I like it a lot.
It remains to wait for an opportunity to ... ROOT and a custom recovery (why not ... I'm always up for a custom ROM).
To come to this update ... it is only available for the CIS countries yet .. but .KDZ is available for download .. and it is this version that I installed CIS.
So for those who have received the update OTA .. it can install ... for those in a hurry (like me) .. or have ROOT their phone and install TWRP .. they can install this update via OTA ... so must follow this method.
I want to thank my friend Berong the XDA forum which was the precursor to try it and I was a big help to do it.
I put the method to the next post.

So ... to install this version of Marshmallow ... we will need the following.
Euuuh .. you are solely responsible for anything that may happen to your phone by following this method ... neither me nor xda forums are responsible .. blah .. you are warned .
So .. we will need:
- The .KDZ (V20A for CIS) of course available here : http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=237
- The LG Flashtool 1.8.6.527 utility from here : https://www.sendspace.com/file/df0h5a
- The extraction utility KDZ from here : https://www.sendspace.com/file/cqq0kk
- The LG drivers here : https://www.sendspace.com/file/6jtwob
First stage :
1- Download and install the drivers for LG
2. Extract the .KDZ
The purpose of this operation is to extract the .KDZ to use it in the flash utility.
To do this ..
- Download and Install KDZ Extractor ..
- Launch the application and select the file .KDZ
- Check all files (3) ... and click Extract KDZ
- When finished, we will have 3 new files (.DLL + .DZ + LIB).
Of these three the only files .DZ and .DLL will be used later.
3- INSTALL LG Flashtool:
- Download LG FLASTOOL RAR
- Unzip the archive
- Install it.
- Copy and paste the MegaLock.dll file in the installation folder (default c:\LG ).
4- Change Port communication :
- Connect the phone to the USB
- Go to Device Manager
- Find "Ports (COM & LPT)", click on the tab on the left to expand it. You should see "LGE Mobile USB Serial Port (COM)".
- Double click on "LGE Mobile USB Serial Port (COM)"> Port Settings> Advanced> next to "COM Port Number" choose "COM41".
- Click on "OK" and then "OK" again.
Here .. now everything is ready .. move to flash the firmware.
Second step :
- Switch off the phone.
- Go DOWNLOAD mode : off phone ... press and hold volume UP plug the usb cable (you are in Download mode).
- Launch LG Flashtool
- Select the manual mode
- Click on "..." and choose the .DLL file (the one extracted earlier from the KDZ).
- Click on "Add" and the choose .DZ file (the one extracted earlier from the KDZ).
- Uncheck upgrade dl and check board dl (very important).
- OK
- In the new window .. just click on yellow arrow (Top left)
- The flash process starts and takes about 4-5 minutes.
- Once finished .. it should display PASS
- The phone will restart
That's it ... you just have to configure your phone and enjoy.
PS: it may be that first start you come across a kind thing: FACTORY RESET STATUS .. then just do (thanks for BERONG) :
1. Remove Battery
2. Power on
3. Do not touch the screen when you see MINI OS
4. Hold power button while MINI OS visible in screen
5. A menu will pop out... Find NORMAL BOOT (+POWER) .
6. Tap that while holding the power button (by clicking simultaneously on several occasions on NORMAL BOOT and the POWER).
Enjoy.

I forgot what site I read about MINI OS workaround anyways credit to them It was not me who originally got that idea... anyways ...
I will just provide some screenies ...

Thank you BERONG ... good job

I added step 4 on the port change.

I'll be flashing back to 5.0.1 again, I can't live without root
I'll be checking this thread from time to time... Hoping for some development like
1. ROOT
2. BOOTLOADER unlock
3. RECOVERY TWRP

I will try it tonight, thanks for the guide! I'm sure our russian friends will get us root and twrp, they are very enthusiastic

Works on H500f.

Tnks
Works fine for me, tanks

Root and install TWRP on LG MAGNA with MARSHMALLOW .... from here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/andr...magna-t3396704

Thanks

Hello people.
For those who have updated their MAGNA to android 6.0 official ... and want to use the SD card as internal storage .. and do not find this option when formatting the SD card here .. taking method LG forum in SPIRIT on XDA. This method has been tested by me and successfully.
- Backup your data on SD because all data will be lost after formatting and encryption SD card (you can copy the latest since the backup on PC.
- Enable USB debugging mode in developer settings.
- Open ADB SHELL command (from the ADB folder .. shift + right mouse button ... OPEN A WINDOW COMMAND)
- List avaliable disks to get disk ID. It can be done with following command:
sm list-disks
You will get your SD Card ID (ex.: disk:179,64, which will be used in next step.
In our example the id is 179.64 for you ... you-remember number that is yours.
After that .. we have the choice of using any SD card or internal memory or half If you want to use only part of SD as Internal Storage and rest as standard Removable Disk, for example 50:50, ...
So it recapitulates the command line:
For all of the SD card :
adb shell
sm list-disks
sm partition disk:179,64 private
For 50/50 of the SD card:
adb shell
sm list-disks
sm partition disk:179,64 mixed 50
Remember that 179.64 is an example .. ID with you to put yours
Here is a screenshot of the command 50/50
Good luck.

as i mentioned in my guide. very first of all remove all kind of mobile related drivers and xfstk tood if you already installed. it is very important to install soc driver before installing xFSTK. moreover before installing xFSTK and after installing isoc driver you need to power cycle and connect your device to pc. and use volume down button. change the right flag value. and when using xfstk. load files. click begin download. when it start waiting for device then power cycle it. it will itself force into download.

[Download+Guide] BND-L24 Board Firmware | IDT Flash Software

If anyone needs this, here is BND-L24 Board Firmware, IDT Flash Tool, Drivers, and Instructions to enter EDL Mode and Flash the board software
**Flashing Board Software should be a final option. If you are still able to flash/boot into TWRP, HuRu or HWOTA would be a better option**
Download :https://drive.google.com/file/d/108uEQyCBMQSywCTOB2c7p9cz35dv_UP9/view?usp=sharing
Image I forgot to add to archive: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bp_pqu-1HGLyxzsO5c7OEEfCmGjahz-O/view?usp=sharing
1.) Take Back Cover Off Phone (Watch a disassembly video from youtube for the Honor 7X if you do not know how)
Basically you use a guitar pick or pry tool around the edges
2.) Unscrew the plate above the battery and take it off
3.) Under the plate you took off, there should be a black connector for the battery, use tweezers or something to take that off
4.) Plug USB into either computer or phone, but not both
5.) place the tips of the tweezers to the 2 Short Points ( See Image )
6.) reattach battery connector
7.) While holding the 2 short points with tweezers, plug the phone into your computer
8.) Check Device Manager that your Phone is detected as COM Port
9.) Open IDT
10.) Add the Board Firmware .xml
11.) Press Start
12.) Put the dload folder on a SD Card and insert it into your phone
13.) Once your phone starts, in one of the manufacturer apps, there is an option for SD Card Update
14.) Once that's installed, you can now use HuRu, FunkyHuawei, DCPhoneix or whatever you prefer to go to stock firmware

THANK YOU! This helped a ton, I was in quite the situation! Black screen and only fastboot. But now I have neither so i have to do it again. Is there any chance you have the firmware for Nougat? That would be nice, as the current one is Ice Cream Sandwich.
Awesome!

Nevermind, I just realized the dload file you included is what i was looking for xD. And here I was trying to manually root with adb shell to somehow flash nougat from the OS. A very roundabout way to go about it i know, but there was that image verify thing...heh.
Thanks! This really helped.

Quick question, how did you get the crc files for each partition? Also can they be edited?

This tutorial is for the Honor 7x and the Huawei Mate SE. I'm guessing the errors you're getting are because your device isn't compatible with this firmware. Sorry about that.

Yes sir, I'm aware that this tutorial is for Honor 7x, as a matter of fact, I've downloaded the board firmware files compatible with my device which is "HLMHAAL00AM00A073 Board Software general 7.0.0 r1 EMUI5.0 05021YVS".
What I did was I extract the .ef file using easy firmware extractor then I run IDT v.2.0.0. I have no idea what's the problem here.
This is the new error I got after using update_nv_rback.xml
"usb1:Start downloading with VCom!

Hoping for your recommendation. I'm so hopeless. </3

I'm sorry I can't be very helpful. I'm 17 and I've never had your device. Some things I would try would be to make sure that the phone is directly connected to the PC ( No multi-usb bus extensions ). Other than that I'm not sure what to say to help you.

Did you guys have an ADB device detected in your device manager together with HUAWEI USB COM 1.0 (COM X), or it should detect only the HUAWEI USB COM 1.0 (COM X) when the device is plugged-in using USB?
Because in my case, my laptop can't detect any ADB device, it only detects HUAWEI USB COM 1.0 (COM X).
Do I need to have both drivers detected first, to prevent any error in using the IDT Software tool?

I'm not sure. I know my PC detected both though so maybe it's worth a try.

I have used this method in my hardbricked honor 7x BND-L22. But i have lost my imei.......

I'm guessing either the flasher is incompatible with your phone, the firmware is incompatible with your phone, or maybe you're just flashing it incorrectly. I'm no expert though, can't help you there, sorry.

May i ask for firmware file reupload ?
(I'm looking for board firmware package with .xml file inside and i"m unable to find it by Google)

Hi guys. After flashing board software, my phone boots to a strange Android 5 version with kinds of developper apps. I was running Android 8 before my phone bricks.
How can I go back to Android 8 or to a custom firmware ? When I try to flash the stock rom for my phone, the phone get stuck on boot loop.
Another problem is that recovery mode is in chinese, any idea of how to change back to english?
