Guest Ice-berg Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 (edited) Hello. I have a problem, as I understand stock ROM must be installed like any other- in recovery(apply any zip from sd). I chose Play (Poland): ZTE Blade(PLAY_P729VV1.0.0B03) and when I try to install in recovery nothing happens- returns me to the main menu in recovery. Is there something I am doing wrong? These ROMs are ready to install (from the first page in this Thread)? Edited February 12, 2011 by Ice-berg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ice-berg Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 Yes, wipe was made several times. The file(ZIP) is fine, received a few times-each time the same thing... Also, several of my friends have the same problem with stock ROMs from PLAY-Poland. I have no idea why it throws me to the main menu in recovery when I try to install stock ROM.

Guest hecatae Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 (edited) I've dumped it, my OUK_P729BV1.0.0B10.zip contains: boot.img checksum.md5 config.gz recovery.img system.info.gz system.tar.gz 1. There's no userdata image... but is there anything else sensitive in there I need to delete before uploading it to a yousendit or something? 2. Also, I used romdump to do it, not ADB stuff. Is that a problem? 3. Is there anything else you want me to check before I put a new rom on it? 4. Seb (or anyone!) could you direct me to advice or instructions to turning this romdump into a TPT recovery image? I'd really like to be able to get back to this vanilla (albeit orange) state if I want to. I've found the following link and lots of guides for making update.zips... but I'd definitely like to do ain install.zip for simple recovery. Any advice would be appreciated! http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?titl...ack_Boot_Images OUK_P729BV1.0.0B10.zip download: http://www.sendspace.com/file/x5oicc right, I've grabbed the boot.img and the system folder and made a signed_update.zip, just going to check it boots yup ugly orange boot animation http://android.modaco.com/content/zte-blad...t/#entry1600928 follow above link if you want a stock Orange UK B10 TPT image Edited February 13, 2011 by hecatae Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Clunk Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 (edited) Here's rom dump from my San Francisco. It's from Orange (Poland). http://www.mediafire.com/?5ny1oyart46av5u edit: One question: Since I have this ROM (OPL_P729BV1.0.0B05) does it mean that I have Blade with OLED screen? I've read that if ROM version ends with B05, it means you have Blade with OLED Screen. Edited February 14, 2011 by Clunk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Clunk Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 (edited) In the UK, but not other countries. After doing that ROM dump I looked inside 'config' file and there, in section 'LCD Panel', is a line CONFIG_FB_MSM_LCDC_OLED_WVGA_PANEL=y it's the only type of screen that is set, all other are commented like below: # CONFIG_FB_MSM_LCDC_PRISM_WVGA_PANEL is not set # CONFIG_FB_MSM_LCDC_V9_WVGA_PANEL is not set Does it mean I actually have OSF/Blade with OLED screen? edit: Nevermind, I've already found the answer. @Sebastian404 Can you make a recovery file from ROM dump I posted earlier? I would appreciate that, thanks. Edited February 15, 2011 by Clunk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Evanb78 Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 Thanks Sebastian404 and Phoenix Silver for bringing back the ROMs online. I've got two noob questions: 1. Can I use any version of ClockworkMod to flash back the stock ROMs? I currently have the ClockworkMod v2.5.1.8. 2. I've purchased the Swiss Blade from someone who had already installed a custom ROM without taking a backup of its stock ROM first. He also doesn't know which of the two available Swiss ROMs was originally on the Blade. Since I need to bring back my Blade for service, can I install any of the two available Swiss ROMs (without causing problems to the device and without the service people noticing that perhaps it's the wrong ROM)?

I guess it depends where you planning on taking it back to, one is from OK, Mobile and other is from Orange... flash the firmware of which every your taking to back to.

Guest Evanb78 Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 Thanks for the prompt reply. So since it's recommended, I guess that I have to replace the ClockworkMod v2.5.1.8 with the latest v3.0.0.6, flash the stock ROM, remove the ClockworkMod, and remove the Superboot (?) before sending it back. Regarding which of the two available Swiss ROMs is the correct one, I think there is some confusion on their naming. My understanding is that there is only one Swiss provider, the "OK Mobile". There's no Orange. Just the first batch of the Blades that were available by "OK Mobile", were branded with the Orange logo. Could any Swiss member confirm that in order to install the correct Swiss ROM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont recall but I thought the OK, Mobile one did have OK,Mobile branding.... I guess try them both and see is the answer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Evanb78 Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 (edited) Thanks a million Seb! :D Just to clarify: All you need to do is install the stock reovery image, it will overwrite the boot and recovery partitions too... Does that mean that I *only* need to flash the stock ROM file from the first page in order to *completely* restore the phone to its factory settings? The ClockworkMod and the (possible) Superboot are removed automatically after flashing a stock ROM? If that's the case then it's easier that I thought and read on some guides.

Guest Evanb78 Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 (edited) Thanks for clarifying that and my apologies for the noob questions but even if I flashed many custom ROMs, I couldn't flash a stock ROM since they weren't available until recently. Thank you again for you prompt replies and help! :D Edited February 17, 2011 by Evanb78 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EMBE Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 Just to clarify: There is a provider Orange in switzerland. ok-mobile (ok-mobile.ch) is just a selling brand of Valora (kkiosk.ch). The ok-mobile phones have an additional black board around the box with with ok-mobile writing. The blade phones of Orange & OK-Mobile are sim-locked. Orange refuses warranty if you hack your phone to remove sim lock (whatever that means). http://www1.orange.ch/business_products_sim-lock.html Hope that helped. If you need a ok-mobile original rom, I could provide one for OCH_P_P729BV1.0.0B01 regards from CH EMBE Thanks for the prompt reply.

The ok-mobile phones have an additional black board around the box with with ok-mobile writing. Thanks for clarifying EMBE. Unfortunately, it gets more confusing for me now. According to the receipt, the Blade was purchased from a "K Kiosk" so I assume that it's an "OK.-Mobile" Blade. However, there isn't any black board around the box with with ok-mobile writing. The box has only the Orange logo with everything on it written in English. Since this is already OT of the current thread, I hope that you don't mind if I send you a PM with a photo of the box and a little more info.

Guest mELIANTE Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 (edited) I got a new Optimus San Francisco here and the rom in it is ro.build.sw_internal_version=OPT_P729BV1.0.0B08 instead of ...0B07 and ro.build.date=Tue Jan 25 10:33:26 CST 2011.

Guest mELIANTE Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 (edited) Well, it appears that nobody is interested in this, and Seb404 is MIA :( I went ahead and used an update zip from other rom with recovery and packed the Optimus files inside, replacing the other rom's files. Here it is, if someone is interested. It is not resigned. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=KRTN8GR4 Sorry for multiple posting, it's just to keep this noticeable in case Seb404 is watching, so he can take care of it :( Edited March 4, 2011 by mELIANTE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
