Guest qwazar87 Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 did that multiple times, always get the same error - BROM ERROR error: S_BROM_CMD_JUMP_DA_FAIL (2035). yes let's hope so but the problem is that i cannot install any other cwm. This mistake shows on this firmware Coolpad_F1_8297W_4.2.015.P0.140321.8297W? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Robi4ok Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 @robi4ok Problem with rooting is solved, in a way. You have to take a look at one of my previous posts. One should use Flashtool and install english recovery only. Not the whole rom. Just the CWM recovery. Then do the nandroid/CWM backup. Then you can flash other (rooted) rom with your CWM. Not very complicated, actualy. Trickiest part is a proper driver instalation. For those who updated to 021 - you wouldn't have the problem if you made a cwm backup first :D I am not strong in this. Is there any guide to install english recovery with flashtool(or SP flashtool?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest slime00 Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) I have tested this, and I do not see much improvement. Yesterday I have tested a lot of cameras on the phone, and with Cinema FV-5 I got great, I repeat great results even in low light conditions. But it is a paid app, and only records video. Looking into apk there were no additional libraries, so it seems everything is already on the phone, it is just poor camera apk that is holding us back. That is great news. The only thing to find is good working camera apk, or use Cinema FV-5 there is camera Fv-5 from the same author for photos, right now I don't have the mobile with me, but works good on my lenovo. You could try this app and see what happens. If you have both camera FV-5 and cinema FV-5, you can easily switch between both apps, without having to manually switch between the two. From the descripiton:now it is possible to switch to video mode. The brand-new Cinema FV-5 app is detected and launched if available. Otherwise, it is possible to use any third-party video recording application or use the stock videocamera app Edited May 20, 2014 by slime00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest johnickz Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Hello there! First of all with all Custom Roms I ve tried (AOSP, MIUI) the phone is going very very well with the photos. So I think that just the stock apk for camera is bad (at least the .015 multi that came with)! Second I saw some posts in Spanish forums and YDSS in China about rooting the phone so if you have any problems with the root of .021 version then there is where you must search first and hope that the google translate do the trick! Third, does anyone know a simple way to import some Languages in MIUI version I found in YDSS (has English-Chinese only)!! Thank you guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dalyer Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 I am not strong in this. Is there any guide to install english recovery with flashtool(or SP flashtool?).

Guest Maringer Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 Why can't you just do this? http://www.needrom.com/mobile/english-recovery-coolpad-f1-8297w/ He can't get root. You need root access to install CWM, even using Mobile Uncle. That's the main issue, in fact - the OTA update to 021 permanently removes the ability to root the phone. Hmmm. I presume that the stock Chinese recovery doesn't allow the installation of third party ROMs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pletko Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 (edited) nope So try with http://www.needrom.com/mobile/f1-miui-8297w/ and MTK Flash Tool from here: http://mtk2000.ucoz.ru/bb/?8379.

Guest Maringer Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 If nothing suggested on here works, I'd imagine it will be a wait to see what the Chinese forums come up with. Just a pity that they are so incomprehensible, even after translation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
