POSSIBLE SOLUTION if you cannot connect usb/wifi

[Guest Mushroom_Lord]

I have noticed that people often suffer for being UNABLE TO CONNECT, Both with wifi to the internet, and with a usb cable to a pc.

IF YOU JUST NEED TO BOOT FASTBOOT, AND CAN CONNECT TO A PC NORMALLY

If you have the reboot app/cyanogen, you can just reboot into fastboot using those.

You can download the reboot app here: http://mushroomsources.webs.com/com.modaco.reboot.apk

Just place the file in your sd card, and open the file using a file explorer.

IF YOU NEED FASTBOOT, AND CANNOT CONNECT TO A PC NORMALLY

Download the reboot app here: http://mushroomsources.webs.com/com.modaco.reboot.apk

1)Put your phones sd card in another device (that supports mass storage) and connect it to a pc

2)Copy the file you just downloaded to your phones SD card.

3)Put the sd card back in your phone, and open FILE MANAGER (or astro, es, whatever you use)

4)Find and install the com.modaco.reboot.apk

IF YOU HAVE CLOCKWORKMOD

Try reflashing your ROM. Its the best you can do. Haven't got a ROM zip stored in the sd card? Use a card reader, and put the ROM zip on your card. Then place the card back in your phone.

Boot into clockworkmod (volume+down held)

Navigate with volume up/down. Home is select, back is back.

Choose>install zip from sd>choose zip>"customROM.zip"

IF YOU DON'T HAVE CLOCKWORKMOD

You can install clockwork mod without your phone needing to be connected to a pc, just do the below.

First of all, download these files:

RECOVERY MANAGER http://android.modaco.com/content/zte-blad...ger-v0-34-beta/

CLOCKWORKMOD .IMG http://android.modaco.com/content/zte-blad...blade-oled-tft/

1)Put your phones sd card in another device (that supports mass storage) and connect it to a pc

2)Copy the files I send you to it (also, put whatever ROM you want on it, i recommend MCR or FLB)

3)Put the sd card back in your phone, and open FILE MANAGER (or astro, es, whatever you use)

4)Find and install the RECOVERY MANAGER apk(or zip)

5)Open RECOVERY MANAGER

6)Somewhere in it you should be able to open .img files from your SD card (it might auto detect actually)

7) select that .img file, and It should be able to install clockwork for you.

8) Turn off your phone, reboot it with VOLUME DOWN+POWER held, it should now boot into recovery.

9) use the volume buttons to navigate. use home to select.

10) do a factory reset (wipe your cache whilst your at it)

11) install .zip from sd card, then select CHOOSE zip, and navigate to your ROM

A rather basic/obvious workaround I know, but it may help some.
