Guest dalyer Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 (edited) Not sure but (a) I don't think that there's any bootloader unlocking step with the F1 and (b ) there are several rooting options that can be done on the device via CWM or an app obviating the need for any host PC.

Guest xeros2 Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 Hypothetical Question: My laptop run Linux Mint, but most of the programs that are use to phone root/unlock bootloader are Windows based. If I had Windows 7 running in VirtualBox from within Linux Mint, are these programs still likely to work over USB? Why "hypothetical"? :-) Like for most phones Windows based root tools are just batches with use of ADB or executables that use ADB anyway to hack root via Linux shell on phone, upload 'su', set permissions & reboot (sometimes few reboots when root is not available for setting suid permissions for 'su' and they are set via additional script at boot). It's enough to rewrite batches to Linux shell script & use ADB for Linux (it's best to download Android SDK and let it download ADB + other tools). Also you can do that via ADB running in recovery - you should have straight root access on recovery then you can upload su + SuperSU or other root access management apps. It's not that problem. The only problem could be with flashing of stock firmwares if you would mess phone totally that even recovery wouldn't boot. But in that case flashing tools under Windows in virtual machine (Virtualbox or VMWare) should work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KennyPowers2000 Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 Its more due to the fact that most online how-to guides provide the 'batch operation' executables for Windows, and I don't have/not confident enough with Linux to type in the equivilant commands in terminal. Do Android based phones connect easier via USB in Windows than with Linux? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest xeros2 Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 (edited) Depends on what kind of "connect" do you mean. On Linux side: - ADB connection ("debug mode") - works fine for all the phones & tablets that I had in hand (even with new phones & older Linux distros - just needed to set vendorid & productid in adb config), - USB storage - depends on ROM possibilites / no problems on Linux side, - PPTP / MTP - rather works, but strongly depends on Linux app that you use, - bootloader / flash mode - could be problem, but depends on availability of Linux flasher (so far haven't seen any for MT6592).

Guest tcpaulh Posted November 27, 2014 Report Share Posted November 27, 2014 I think you have a working version somewhere in the first page The problem is with Gmaps V9. The apk link on first page is V8. I'm hoping google fix the issue in a future update too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cristian77 Posted November 27, 2014 Report Share Posted November 27, 2014 I'm sorry to bother you, but fail in any way to download MIUI 4.4.2 by LZY. 4 days trying all options displayed on the first page. if someone has already pulled off this rom and may upload elsewhere or if you know another way to get off this file would be grateful. I love MIUI is the perfect rom for me and I use version 4.2 from lzy but I want the fast focusing camera from 4.4 rom. At least that I understood that the 4.4 roms have fast focusing camera. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dalyer Posted November 27, 2014 Report Share Posted November 27, 2014 If your problem is downloading from a China host (e.g. Baidu drive?) then you probably need to use the tips in the first or second post - e.g. use a downloader utility or intall Baidu file butler (or whatever it's called) under Sandboxie and use one of those to download. Otherwise it's excruciatingly slow and error prone to download from China servers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise it's excruciatingly slow and error prone to download from China servers. That is the problem - i try every downloader from the firs page. Not working - very slow and with errors after 12-24 hours of download time. I am out of options. Ultimate chance somebody with the rom already downloaded or another downloader that work and was not already posted here because i already try it all. thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dalyer Posted November 27, 2014 Report Share Posted November 27, 2014 As mentioned earlier it's probably a good idea to install certain downloaders such as Baidu in Sandboxie and do the downloads in a sandbox. Just in case... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
