I think I can make it working.

I have earlier made the SDcard the primary place for installing " setinstalllocation2..".

So:

Will I have any benefits of the swapping way instead of the "setinstallocation2" model?

Are the one better/quicker than the other?

I mean better performance of the phone.

Hello

I have a MEDIO P4310. I put SKATIE on it.
I have a problem with the microphone.
So I want to restore the original MEDION stuff on it, so that my guarantee can work.

I don't succeed to do this. I tried with CWM, it didn't work.

Someone can help me?

thanks in advance

If your SKatie was installed using TPT  method you must repartition your internal memory to stock because currently you have not enough space
on system partition to install stock system.
Download http://ceco.sk.eu.or..._partitions.zip

Flash it the same way as you flashed SKatie TPT.
After flashing it will boot into clockworkmod automatically where you can restore your stock backup.
There might be some potential problems with backup incompatibility. Depends on what version
of clockworkmod was used to backup your stock rom. The one that comes with TPT in the link is 4.0.1.4

If you have problems, ZIP your stock boot.img, recovery.img and system.img and put them on dropbox. Then
I will be able to prepare TPT that will restore your Skate to stock easily.

Thank you very much, but I didn't succeed. I tried with TPT. It's giving the message 'installation aborted'. (after finding update, opening and installing...).

I want to put the zip on DROPBOX. How do I do it?

I put it already in my folder of dropbox. What do you need from me to enter?

so much thanks
I hope we can solve ;-)

Hello everbody,

I bought MEDION  P4310 phones (actually 3 for the whole family!) but I would like to flash new ROM to be able to have, for example, Flash Player.

Thank you for all the explanations and manuals but I have some doubts and before trying to do anything I rather ask (I have experience with HTC HD2 but it was time ago and I took some risks I almost brick the phone!).

Here some questions...

- if I instal the Clockmod with windows... do I have the possibility to back-up the original ROM (skate as you call it)?
- is there any way otherwise to get a back-up of the original firmware before trying other ROMs?
- could you recommend me any ROM in terms of battery life, availability of flash-player, languages as catalan (as well for swipe keyboard), etc?

I followed the link of the different skate ROMs but I could not find any direct reference to the Build of my telephone (I guess is the same for the 3). Further down I copy the data I got from the system information app you recommended. Is there any skate built I might use or I have to get a back-up one before trying other ROMs.

Thanks a lot for your information and your blog!

All the best,
Lluís

TPT is not flashable via clockworkmod.
TPT zip must be extracted to the root of SD card so you have folder image with file image.bin in it
Then you have to power off your phone and use Volume+, Menu, PowerOn combination to flash.
After that it will reboot automatically to clockworkmod where you must use Backup&restore menu to restore your stock (provided you still
have your backup on SD card)

If you have files I requested on your dropbox just send me the link so I can download them.
I am too busy at the moment so I will be able to get back to it in the evening (hopefully)

Hallo

Thanks for your fast reply. Here is the link

https://www.dropbox....uzex/O61uOXKAYD

Still great thanks!

[C3C0]

Downloading...

[C3C0]

OK. Here you go.
Download: http://ceco.sk.eu.or....0.0B02_TPT.zip

1) Extract zip to root of your SD. This will create "image" folder in root of SD with one file in it (image.bin)
2) Turn off your phone. Make sure it is charged. Unplug USB if plugged in
3) Hold Menu key together with Volume+ key and turn on your phone while still holding them. Flashing progress will appear.
4) Phone will reboot

That's it.

[dagmaar]

Again so much thanks. I'm trying. How long takes the installation of the 'image'?

The combination of VOLUME+KEY and MENU KEY and TURN ON KEY didn't work. I don't know why. SKATIE is installed.

thanks for you service!!!

[C3C0]

1) check contents of your SD card. You must have "image" directory directly in root of SD with "image.bin" inside.
2) make sure you press and hold the keys correctly. Phone must be turned off.

[dagmaar]

1) is ok

2) doesn't work until know

I'm recharging now and try again later.
I hope it will be possible?

Is there another way to install the image?


1000 thanks

[dagmaar]

By holding the keys the system is restarting CWM-base recovery 4.0.1.4

How can I solve?

Thanks

[C3C0]

Omg  
Menu key is the middle one.

[dagmaar]

hello

Retried but without succes. You still have another suggestion?

so much thanks

[C3C0]

This simply must work. You must be doing something wrong.
Post a screenshot with contents of your sd.
Or you could also try using different sd.

[dagmaar]

Here is the content of my sd card.

[dagmaar]

I can't copy


I see:

VLC media file (.bin)

Edited by dagmaar, 01 December 2012 - 11:38 AM.

[C3C0]

What about "image" folder?

[dagmaar]

Do I just have to install the winrar-file?

I installed the extraction. That is the " VLC media file (.bin)"

again 1000 thanks
