***-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------***
This is how I did it, step by step. I CHECKED THESE STEPS SEVERAL
TIMES BUT THERE IS A POSSIBILITY THAT I FORGOT SOMETHING!!!!!!!!!
IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT ARE YOU DOING PLEASE DONT FOLLOW THIS MANUAL.
I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR BRICKED PHONES OR ANY DAMAGE CAUSED BY YOUR
OWN ACTIONS. IT WORKED FOR ME AND IT'S DONE ONLY ON TELENOR ONE
TOUCH SERBIA. ITS FUNCTIONALITY IS NOT FULLY TESTED YET, THERE COULD
BE BUGS*!! YOU ARE DOING IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
* currently known bugs: cant update google apps,
gmail,search,youtube..
THESE STEPS WERE TESTED ON TELENOR BRANDED OT-990 WITH v53R-0 BUILD
NUMBER. THE PHONE WAS PREVIOUSLY UPDATED FROM v53H-0 to v53R-0 WITH
OTU(ONE TOUCH UPGRADE) APPLICATION
BACKUP EVERYTHING BEFORE YOU PROCEED!!
DO NOT PROCEED WITH STEPS IF ANYTHING DIFFERS FROM THIS MANUAL!!
THESE ARE INSTRUCTIONS FOR WINDOWS 7, i did it on Win7 64bit
1. You need to install Alcatel Android Manager and One Touch Upgrade
from
THIS
LINK.Find it in Download tab. All the drivers are here.
Also download and install
Android
SDK Tools. I have installed all this things so maybe you
should too.
2. Download
CWM
recovery image,
Recovery
Manager apk,
FOTA
update.zip. Unpack the RecoveryManager_v0.34b.zip. Put those
recovery-clockwork-4.0.1.5-ot990.img, RecoveryManager_v0.34b.apk and
update.zip (dont unpack this archive) files in the root of SD card.
3. Download the
Hungarian
rom dump 2.2.2. Unpack the archive, you'll see two folders -
dump and firmware. Copy boot.img, custpack.img, recovery.img,
system.img files from 'firmware' folder and FOTA.img, FOTAFLAG.img
files from 'dump' folder to a new folder with name 'gingerbread'
(for example).
4. Download
fotaflag_modem_upgrade.zip
and unpack the fotaflag_modem_upgrade.mbn file to a 'gingerbread'
folder.
5. Download the
Telenor
Gingerbread rom dump Unpack it, and copy(dont move, just copy)
adb.exe, AdbWinApi.dll, AdbWinUsbApi.dll, fastboot.exe,install.bat
files to the 'gingerbread' folder. (REMEMBER WHERE YOU EXTRACTED
THIS ARCHIVE, WE WILL NEED THIS FOLDER IN STEP 17!!!)
6. Right click on install.bat in 'gingerbread' folder and choose
Edit. Replace the whole content of file with following commands:
adb.exe reboot-bootloader
ping 1.1.1.1 -n 1 -w 10000
fastboot.exe -w
fastboot.exe erase boot
fastboot.exe erase recovery
fastboot.exe erase system
fastboot.exe erase custpack
fastboot.exe flash boot boot.img
fastboot.exe flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot.exe flash system system.img
fastboot.exe flash custpack custpack.img
fastboot.exe flash FOTA FOTA.img
fastboot.exe flash FOTAFLAG FOTAFLAG.img
fastboot.exe flash FOTAFLAG fotaflag_modem_upgrade.mbn
fastboot.exe reboot
Save it and exit.
7. Shutdown the phone and then when its off enter the fastboot mode
by holding the Volume Down and Power button. When you feel the
vibration, release the Power button but hold the Volume Down a few
seconds longer, dont let the android logo appear. Release the Volume
Down button. The screen will be black, and you'll see the light from
Options, Search, Back buttons of the phone.
8. Connect your phone with usb cable.
9. Double click on the install.bat in a 'gingerbread' folder and
wait for process to finish. If everything is ok, the DOS prompt
window will close and phone will reboot. He'll still be off, showing
Battery charging.
10. Disconnect the usb cable and power on the phone. When you walk
through the Setup process of the phone (Language, Google account
etc.) you'll have a rooted 2.2 ROM on your phone.
11. Allow non-market applications to be installed by checking
'Unknown sources' in Setting/Applications, then go to File Manager
and click on RecoveryManager_v0.34b.apk to install it.
12. When Recovery Manager is installed open it and go to Recovery
tab, choose install recovery and when he shows you a
recovery-clockwork-4.0.1.5-ot990.img select it. After he is done
select the Reboot into Recovery option. Phone will reboot.
13. When phone enters a Recovery mode you will see something like
this.
(You are moving through the menu with Volume Up and Volume Down
buttons and select with Home button.) Choose a second option apply
sdcard:update.zip. Confirm this decision when he ask you are you
sure. Wait him to finish. When he is done choose reboot, i think its
a first option.
14. Have patience, booting will be slow. At this point Gingerbread
should be installed and offer you to choose a language. But after
that when you try to select a keyboard he will probably give an
error, something like 'android.process... blah blah..' and give you
a force quit option. SHUT DOWN THE PHONE!
15. When the phone is off we are doing the step 7 again. Enter the
fastboot mode!
16. Connect the usb cable!
17. Find the folder from step 5 where we extracted the Telenor
Gingerbread romdump archive (folder name will be
'original_telenor_GB_v5GY-0' - DONT USE THE 'gingerbread' folder we
previously used) and execute install.bat. Wait him to finish, when
its done phone will reboot and start charging battery.
18. Disconnect the usb cable.
19. Power on the phone and go through the setup.
YOU ARE DONE!
