How to dump the ROM of V880 sample handset(Chinese Blade)

[Guest jj0]

First,I'm chinese.please excuse my poor engilsh.

One of our forum remembers has an unavailable-on -market ZTE V880 sample handset, which has the same hardware with San Francisco, android 2.2\512RAM\OLED. We exhausted all methods but still failed in flashing "clockmod recovery" into the handset when we intended to backup its ROM. "Power"+ "+"couldn’t hold it in the first frame while power+"-" could only appear "FTM" mode. The handset can root, yet it couldn't be install the "recovery"with "fastboot". Can any professionals help us out with the problem above?

We’ll definitely share that ROM as soon as we successfully fix the problem. Thank you very much.

It's probably a driver issue, however,

if you have rooted the phone anyway just install "terminal emulator" from the market or wherever you can get it then copy the clockwork custom recovery image to your sd card then do as follows...

1. Launch "Terminal Emulator" on the handset

2. 'su'

3. 'flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img' (or whatever your sdcard and recovery image is called)

4. 'reboot recovery'

step 4 , can't use the "reboot" command

I'm coming, hoping that someone can interchange the 2.2 ROM to extract out.

Trailing from the landlord to come to China!

that shouldn't matter too much, just reboot manually and hold down the "Vol -" button when powering on to get into recovery mode.

He had already flashed a couple of different versions "recovery",but none of them could boot by "power-"

either the screen was frozen with "Green-robot",or it entered into system directly

I think the 2.2 ROM's stability largely depends on “jj0” Unicom prototype of this key can extract the ROM

whatever use "reboot recovery" or hold "Vol-", the screen just display a green robot.

How did you root this phone?

And do you get the superuser # prompt after executing su ? (to indicate that it was successfully rooted)

yes,use the Universal Androot to root my phone,and the flash_image has executed .

Before that,when I hold the "Vol-"to power on ,the screen display "FTM"

There are other ways than Clockwork.

I've mailed a couple of the gurus here. (I am not in their class!)

When they appear, who should they contact? kk_ray ?

One important element of Paul's hack to Clockwork was to make it recognise the Volume - key as the signal to enter Recovery mode, instead of FTM.

I'm not sure whether that hack is broken, or whether Clockwork has not installed at all.

If you can be patient (probably only for a few hours) I'm sure you will get LOTS of skilled help.

BUT you might want to edit your public email address (nospam).

I must goto sleep now, can you email me ?

I am quite certain someone will be in touch by email!

Thank you for getting in contact.

[Guest rjm2k]

Looks like the clockwork mod for the sf will not work without modification for the phone that you have.

[Guest rjm2k]

Ok, see Pauls post (#13) here about howto backup your ROM

http://android.modaco.com/index.php?s=&amp...t&p=1422321

it's a bit late for your recovery but if you post your system and boot it should be possible to come up with something.

It my boot-image:boot_dump.rar.

It my boot-image:boot_dump.rar.

Upload the other files. That is just the boot image.

Type this in terminal

"su

cd /system

tar zcvf /sdcard/system-dump.tar.gz *

dd if=/dev/mtd/mtd1 of=/sdcard/boot-dump.img bs=4096

dd if=/dev/mtd/mtd0 of=/sdcard/recovery-dump.img bs=4096

"

Upload the boot-dump.img file and recovery-dump.img file and the system-dump.tar.gz archive.

They will be on sd card

I helped kk_ray backup the system files on msn so thats them there.

Looking at the build.prop compared to the old chinese rom we had.

This one is

ro.build.date=Mon Oct 11 16:29:22 CST 2010

ro.build.sw_internal_version=P729CUV1.0.0B04

The older one was

ro.build.date=Thu Sep 2 10:54:26 CST 2010

ro.build.sw_internal_version=P729CUV1.0.0B01

Also the new one seems to add opengl in the notes.

Someone can take a look see if we get anything good
