The recovery file is extracted from the official ROM update.zip or from a CWM backup?

I checked the new ROM and I see this in build.prop

ro.build.sw_internal_version=TMN_P740AV1.0.0B05

B05 ? Also this is newer that other original versions

ro.com.google.gmsversion=4.0_r7

Build dates of the current original versions:

German B04: June 7 2012

Greek B02: July 24 2012

Slovak B07: August 1 2012

TMN B03: September 10 2012

TMN B04/B05 : December 25 2012 (!)

Can you check the partition sizes on the the TMN official ROM?

The TMN ROM does not seem to fit into my Wind Acqua.

The TMN ROM does not seem to fit into my Wind Acqua.

How can I check that? Also on my phone info I find the follow: TMN_P740AV1.0.0B04 (Compilation Number) .

And the recovery is extracted from the oficial update.zip

[Guest papars]

open a terminal window or from adb shell and type the command df.

At the top of the list you will see the size and other info about the file system.

In my acqua is like this:

Filesystem Size Used Free Blksize

/system 393M 367M 25M 4096

Partitions are the same as in my acqua but for some reason the TMN version refuses to load with "out of space" error. I had to remove several files to make it fit.

Too complicated...

[Guest papars]

ZTE R22 (Telecom New Zealand) is Acqua?

Original firmware is here: http://wwwen.zte.com...38922447658.zip

Version is B07, 12 July 2012

So far the latest official version is TMN (B04/B05 25 Dec 2012)

If is allowed I can post a link with a CWM flashable version of a slightly slimed version of TMN (removed chrome but added root)

So, the owners with "Greek" Acqua should install the German rom in order to get wifi to work with JB, right? Should we install the German recovery too? or is KonstaT's enough for our "job"?

SOS!!!

Can someone upload the Greek partitions??? I cannot install the Greek 4.0.4 ICS WIND edition!!!!

[Guest MJonMoDaCo]

Thank you to the clever clogs who got the NZ recovery uploaded. Owe you big time, even though CM 10.1 is confirmed as working on this phone...

And I really like it, actually...

[Guest Skinz1984]

After the wifi at my home didn't work with my acqua [Australian Telstra Urbane] I tried flashing one of the stock roms to see if that would help. I flashed the portugese stock recovery and rom [because it is the most recent] without any issues. After this, however, I could not flash any other recovery using fastboot. I managed to fastboot boot into the cwm recovery, and then flash the zip. So I now have CWM back on and my previous rom. It wont let me even flash the portugese recovery. It says it is sending the recovery, and then it pauses at 'writing...' when I finally disconnect the cable it states 'too many links'

I have tried different usb cables and ports, but I don't see why that would matter as it was on the same cable and port when I first flashed it. Any ideas?

[Guest papars]

What rom you try to install? You can only install official roms through their recovery. I you have cwm installed official file flashing will not work.

Did you test Cm10.1 it works ok.

[Guest Skinz1984]

I kept trying to flash the stock Recoveries but to no avail. Eventually by using fastboot boot I was able to install the nz rom and that put me back on a different stock recovery and stock rom. From there I could flash the recovery again

[Guest SandStorm_RS]

There's a new B06 version for the TMN official ROM for the Acqua.

[here, version B06]

No idea what's new, or if is rootable too

If you have a rooted device with terminal emulator installed you can do the following:

1. Start Terminal Emulator

2. su (give superuser permissions if you haven't already)

3. dd if=/mnt/sdcard/path/to/recovery/file.IMG of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p17

and that should fix it. Perhaps these instructions should be added to the OP?

As an aside, I dug into the NZ ROM and found, to my dismay - the medion recovery (for German ROM). Suffice to say that didn't stay there for long!

You certainly can't flash stock rom with CWM. The instructions for flashing your stock recovery is in the post above yours! Since you're using google translate, we'll forgive you, but you'll need to make sense of the next instructions...

1) Download stock recovery (and ROM!) for your phone from the original post, and save/transfer it to your SD card's root directory.

2) Since you're on a CyanogenMod custom ROM already, open up Terminal Emulator

3) Type 'su' (without quotes) and give superuser permissions when it asks (if you haven't done so already)

4) type 'dd if=/mnt/sdcard/<name of recovery file>.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p17 (This flashes the recovery partition with the stock recovery)

5) type 'Reboot recovery' and it will take you to the stock recovery

6) format user data (I sure hope you backed up!!)

7) Select Zip from SDcard and install.

8) Smile.

thanks for the help, I had already done what is in the post above mine, problem is it gives me this error messages "and: fail to VERIFY whole-file signature e: signature verification failed instalatiion aborted."

what I wanted is something that bypasses signature verification, if possible!! or something to correct the problem signature verification.edited 17set2013

Anyone know, because gives this error? "fastboot update update.zip - archive does not contain ´android-info.txt` - archive does not contain ´android-produt.txt´ - error: update package has no androi-info.txt or android-produt.txt"

excuse my english

I followed those instructiosn to install this new stock rom and worked flawlessly.

But, my terminal emulator was the one from the "rom toolbox" app I often use.

Also, my CWM was an ancient one, from the 5.x version.

Well, at this moment I'm restoring everything with the default backup and restore app. Tested the camera, the flash still sucks making a blank area, so, they didn't really fixed the flash operation mode.

All in all, I'm about to remove the backup app APK's, flash CMW again and go for a custom ROM.

[Guest SandStorm_RS]

Btw, if you still experiencing problems, try to download again the update. who knows, maybe it is corrupted somewhere.
