[How To] Tops A- Android 2.2 DualSim Flashing Tutorial *English*

[KripXP]

Hi all,

Does anyone know how to unpack, edit and repack the boot.img file? I would like to modify the init.rc this way:

mount yaffs2 mtd@cache /cache nosuid nodev nandboot
chown system cache /cache
chmod 077[B]1[/B] /cache

I am trying to move the Dalvik-cache from the data partition to the cache partition but first, I need to change the cache partition permissions from 770 to 771 (like the data partition).

Thanks.

Hi Guys,

I bought a cable from etowalk and I download V4 and other stuffs. I tried to flash, but when I push the format -> download button and press the power on button nothings happen. It didn't start the flashing. I tries several times. What it the problem, somebody can help me?

Regards.

Have you already installed the driver for the flashcable?
And set the correct Com-Port in FlashTool?

 

[bakkertakker]

Yes, I installed PL2303 v1.1 driver. COM4 is the port. I use Win7 x64.

Battery is also fully charged?
And the phone is powered off?
Then it should work!

And keep the Power button a little bit longer pressed.

It has 70% charge, maybe that is the problem. When I pressed the button phone turned on.

70% is more than enough.
If the driver is correct installed, all settings are correct and the phone turns on, then you have got a problem with the flashcable.
I think it´s broken

You can also try that driver: click
That one works 100% sure with W7 64bit

I installed 1.2.1 but I still have the same problem. How can I check the cable is 100% broken?

How can I check the cable is 100% broken?

I test all my cables with the phone itself. Same as you tried

Great. I wrote an email to etowalk, maybe they send me a new one
