Guest dakill Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 Hello everyone, tl;dr : i've messed with my phone. it boots, but screen is unreadable. debug mode is disabled, so ADB is useless. can't enable debug mode because, well, screen is unreadable. it seems it can't enter the "fastboot" mode (disabled by the mobile operator maybe?), i've managed only to get FTM mode.. is there any way to re-flash it from FTM mode? i've found the original ROM in the net. that's how i messed it: i've got a pretty good problem on my zte racer. I've been playing with various so-called "lcd density changer" and liking the results, but they wouldn't stick between reboots. So i found one apk that was supposed to make the density settings survive between reboots, but now my screen is totally garbled and unreadable. I can unlock the phone but then it reboots itself. The phone starts OK but right before playing the boot animation it mess the screen. i think the way to go was to get access to the /system folder and eliminate this app entry in init.d or wherever it puts itself in the boot sequence. But, i don't have debug mode enabled, and i can't enable it because i can't get past the password screen. so, alternative left, reflash the thing. But my device does not enter fastboot mode (vol + and power) just don't seem to do anything. FTM mode works though (vol - and power) . pressing both (vol +, vol - and power) seems to lock the phone up (black screen, no response, computer recognizes it as DFU, as in FTM mode) but i couldn't get any further than this. Note to the others: Stay way from the "LCD Density Changer" app!!! if you want, use the other ones that change the density temporarily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dakill Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 I've succesfully revived the phone, doing a low-level flashing via "download mode", using obscure software and a chinese firmware i've found. Will post details of the procedure soon, may be of use to "unbrick" phones as it is a really low-level flashing.

Guest redhawkuk Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Does anyone know if the wifi hardware is capable of adjusting transmission power?? In some situations if you're near a wifi router watching online videos or wifi tethering with a laptop using full power is bad for battery life. As far as I can tell the command to adjust wifi power is iwconfig wlan0 txpower however txpower isn't a supported command with the stock 2.1 ROM. Do other ROMs such as Cyanmod provide this capability or is the power fixed depending on the wifi hardware?? Richard S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kman12041 Posted October 21, 2011 Report Share Posted October 21, 2011 Could some one please tell me the source form this built image, recovery-clockwork-4.0.1.0-mooncake-gen1 The reason i am asking for the source is so that i can send it to koush and he could officialy support it.

Guest soulrom Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 Hi People, My son's ZTE Racer (Australian) decided not to boot past the green Android screen. today. I've tried lots of suggestions from this site and all I can get to work is to put it into FTM mode and then it appears under the Windows (7) drivers as "ZTE Handset Diagnostic Interface(DFU) (COM3)" I looked at and downloaded all sorts of ROMS and fastboot-windows.exe and adb-windows.exe but as this phone has not been rooted or modified in any way the ADB drivers do not load. I downloaded an unlocking program to my PC that correctly identified the phone and if I just let it boot normally (without Vol+ or Vol-) then connect to the computer I see a modem device which in diagnostic mode identified the IMEI etc, so the phone is working to some extent despite only the Android robot visible on the screen (which then goes to the TELSTRA logo and freezes). I have downloaded a TELSTRA ROM file found elsewhere in these forums (TELSTRA_P726TV1.0.0B12-update_signed.zip) - this looks like a full filesystem dump. What program do I use to write the abovementioned file to the phone from only FTM/DFU mode? Or what other programs/roms/action do I need to get/take to recover to factory default? Despite my searching on this site a critical thing missing is how to unbrick/reflash a virginal (unrooted) phone from only FTM/DFU mode. BTW it's ok if all data is lost. Thanks for any help - exact links/instructions would be excellent too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
