Hey,

I successfully rooted my zte skate with this tutorial, thank you!
Now I have the problem with the wifi error and can't use my wifi any more.
I would like to stay on a stock rom for another while, so what are my options?

Installing a stock image? Best trough CWM and install mod and then choose the stock rom image?
Or should I use ADB flashing?
Will my phone still be rooted when I install the stock image?
Or should I consider installing a mod?

Thanks in advance!

If you backed up your stock rom in CWM the just use CWM to advance restore your stock boot.img
(Backup& Restore / Advanced restore / Restore boot.img)
Root will remain preserved.

I made a back-up after I rooted my phone, so I only have the stock rom that is available for my model through this forum.
Was it an option to make a back-up after I installed CWM (and before the install 2.3.5 ...... file)? If so, my fault.

So installing the stock rom through CWM is the best option then for me? (If I want to keep using stock)?

Thanks

Just flash stock boot.img
No need to reflash the whole rom.

Thank you for all the help.
So flashing the boot.img from the stock rom would be sufficient.
I'm pretty new at this, so sorry for al the questions, but wich is the best way to do this?

Can I do this through CMW, and how then?
Or do I use ADB en then select 'flash file/rom to phone' and choose the boot.img from the stock rom?
No need to wipe caches beforte doing this?

Sincerly

You can do it using fastboot.
You can use the same package that you used to flash CWM - you will find adb.exe and fastboot.exe there.
Then you just use command prompt:
$ adb reboot bootloader
$ fastboot flash boot boot.img (where boot.img is your stock boot.img file)
$ fastboot reboot

no need to do wipes.

FYI. apparently the engineers left a root backdoor in the Skate and Score

http://www.androidau...or-found-85445/

Thanks to an anonymous post to Pastebin, details have now emerged that the device has a setuid-root binary (a program that runs with root privileges) in /system/bin/sync_agent that serves no function other than to provide a root shell backdoor. If you know the hard-coded password (ztex1609523) then you get unlimited root access to the phone

This may be just me but I cannot see the FAQ, when I click on it I just get a post saying nice work as the first post. I am desperately in need of it as I have loaded the TIlal's CM10 ROM but flashing GAPPS does not work. I am sure it is a "schoolboy error" on my part but I need the FAQ to see what I have done wrong. I have flashed several ROMS and GAPPS in the past and never had a problem so seems strange.

Anyway any help that can be offered would be greatly appreciated.

I would guess your system partition is to small. You need another tpt with 230MB system which can be done by tpt helper. Just look through the rom's thread it is described there somewhere.

[MaxtheMoney]

Thanks for the reply, I guessed it might be that but cant see how I can use TPT helper as I cannot get Play on my phone in order to be able to download it?

morning, before you flashed cfx, what rom did you have on your phone?


try flashing this via cwm, it's playstore and feedback apk
