English OS System 20080801 Edition (ROM image) for M88 MiPhone
Please download from here
If somebody knows how to enter the bootloader mode of this phone please share here with us!
Here is the instruction for this procedure from the supplier which is nor working for me:
"English OS System 20080801 Edition (ROM image) available for download
- To update ROM, format your TF card with FAT32 and unzip all files and folders from the downloaded file into the root folder of the TF card. Then, restart the phone to begin updating. This update converts all non-English versions of this phone into English version."
If somebody can manage to install the ROM please write here the steps!
Thanks!

You can get to the flash update by pressing RESET, MENU, and POWER all at the same time, then release RESET first and wait for a message. The message will tell you to release POWER to do a hard-reset or MENU to do a flash update. In this case, you will release MENU first, then you will get a message asking if you want to update from SD. At this point, none of the buttons do anything so I assume you have to tap the touchscreen. My touchscreen is broken so I couldn't get any further than this.

Problem Fixed!

Thanks for your help, m8. It didn't work that way for me. I was adwised to do this:
1. Duplicate the update.img file and rename the second one as "uploader"
2. Copy both "update.img" and "uploader" on the SD - formatted in FAT32
3. Press POWER and HOME butons at the same time.
4. There are two possible options from here:
a) White screen with blue text showing "Upload image... please wait..."
b) Red screen with the options what to do in the next step -
5. I saw first the a) option - the white screen. So after 3 minutes of waiting the phone said it is done and it will selfrestart. After the restart - voila! There was the English OS loaded on my phone and everything was working perfect!
Hope this to help to other people too!

Check this out:
Resco explorer
Pocket Mechanic
Pocket Toolman
Resco is very useful thing so the other two are very powerful as well. You will definetely uninstall S2U2 with more than one of them.
Good luck!

problems
i have a daxian +999
i flash it whit that file it work but now i have a white screen the phone looks like ok but nothing shows in the screen only a white screen what i can do ??

My touchscreen does work but I get the white screen asking me "updated from SD card?" then it just sits there. I dont have a keyboard to hit Y. None of the buttons do anything. Touching the screen does nothing.
*edit* figured it out. You just keep holding the power button down. Then it flashed to a solid purple screen. I went wtf.... it screwed up again? then after a few minutes it booted up.

problems in m89
hello, I recently bought a M89.
In general the phone is great, but mine has a very big problem.
As a PDA it works great, but when I insert my SIM card the phone just freezes. It works for just a minute after the SIM is inserted. I've even been able to make one or two calls before it freezes.
But past one or two minutes it just stops working. It doesn't respond to anything at all, the only solution is to remove the battery.
I think the problem is in the firmware. I've reinstalled a bunch of diferent firmwares: wm6 english, wm6.1 spanish, wm6 english again... and nothing works.
can anyone help me???, 'cause this is really killing me :'(
Thanks in advance!

Just wondering - What is the size of your microSD card.
As far as I know m88 does not support SD card greater that 4 Gb by default.
Please, let us know.

Updated from SD Card ?
Hello, first of all I want to say thank you because I learned a lot from this thread. I bought M88 phone some months ago and is the first time I cannot use ( I really don't know what went wrong but finally the phone is not working or frezze ).
I bought 2Gb card and was formatted in FAT32. I also complete all steps in order to load the original image but I got this message: "updated from SD card?" and nothing more... What button must be pressed ?
I'll go crazy... do you know what's the next step ?
Thank you very much.

i dont understand sorry. i have to copy the "update" imgfile and rename it as "uploader"... and leave this two files : "update and uploader" in the root folder ?

I've install ROM from this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=452848
and now, when I try power on my MiPhone - it show only white screen - please help!

bootloading
the file, atleast on windows 7, shows up as "update". Also, I found it works must faster and easier to make 3 copies (4 files total)
naming 1: update.img
2: uploader.img
3: Update
and 4: uploader
(so the last 2 don't actual have .img in the title)
Then just make sure you hold down both the buttons, and vuo-la! haha
Doesn't fix the MMS problem though.
Does anyone know how to make it so that it can use mms?

Danke es funktioniert supper !!

i got white screen too ;[ how to fix my phone now ;/ i dont see enythink ;[

WIFI UH OH (driver is not loaded)

I was updating my freinds dash, he had official rom on it, i went to rose rom v1.7a and also kavana final and some others and then i went back to latest t-mobile official rom 1.16 something, and all of them now say "drivers is not loaded" when you go to look at the wifi status, I loaded the WM2005 SDIO wifi drivers cab and also got a fresh copy of wifiinit.exe in the windows folder and then put the shortcut to it in the startup folder....i now have it running the rose v1.7a, i am lost, i'm on the phone now with a clueless pda expert at t-mobile.

still no solution to this problem, my friend might have to reflash back to original and do warranty exchange...i don't know what went wrong...he needs a new phone anyways...or maybe get the updated dash

The drivers are included in every ROM I have ever flashed, loading them comes from the .lnk file. So unless you are getting an error that the drivers do not exist or have failed they are their. It is possible your .lnk file is pointing to the wrong location

why would you move the exe? How did you make a shortcut if you moved the exe? The G1 sux (sorry to those that think otherwise but it does). You only get a refurb if you dont ask for a new replacement. I always get new, after all I bought a new device not a refurb didnt I?
Anyway, it sounds like you created a bad shortcut for wifi and thats your issue

Strange, the problem was due to a defective battery! Seems that when I try to switch on WIFI and SD, the battery level goes down in a way that the OS does not load the drivers. Charged the battery to 100%, and rebooted, everything works normally.

if you have a drivers problem, should try with this...i had the same in my dash...."drivers not loaded"...i put this files on the phone and wifi works again.

Please help
I just got my dash. I upgraded it to the kavanna but then i wanted to give the vanilla version a try since i needed a cleaner version it had a picture of the tmobile shadow but i thought it would be ok since the folder tittle said excalibur. It gave me and error at 3 % saying that the iimage was the incorrect size. Then it started up with kavanna but there was no wifi option. Then i downgraded to wm6 standard but my wifi wont start. When i check the settings it tells me that the driver is not loaded. Ive been looking around in this forum for 2 days. All i see is people saying that this topic has been covered already. I tried the wininit.ink and exe thing and no success. I hard reseted and nothing. I tried different roms and the official tmobile but nothing seems to work. Is there a way to start from scratch???i just want to stick with the official tmobile rom. Please help meee.
Im running vista ultimate
the official tmobile rom latest version

Wrong cpuid

Hello,
My A100 is stuck at the android logo, but never loads.
I have tried the EEUs that is available here (thanks), but because I can only connect in APX mode, the CPUID.txt file is never created. Thus when I enter my correct CPUID the program says it is incorrect.
Can anyone upload the contents from the CPUID.txt file, or perhaps recommend a tutorial on using NVFLASH included in the Image folder of the EEUs file?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as my a100 is a total brick.

where is the file located? I have spent 15 minutes looking for it.

Hi. Thanks for looking.
According to all of the tutorials I have read it should be in a folder called 7zXXXX.tmp in c:\users\(username)\appdata\local\temp
Unless my info is outdated and te program doesn't create it anymore, but according to the A500 forum you have to enter the CPUID into the CPUID.txt file when the temp directory is created, WHILE the program is still running.

I was looking on the phone.
Sorry, I do not have anything in my tmp directory. I have a script that clears my tmp folder every night.

Thanks for checking
The tmp directory disappears once you close the eeus program.

Hello,
I have a same problem after rewrite my framework-res.apk.
in EUU a put correct CPUID, but the programs said it's wrong.
also i can't find CPUID.txt in this directory.
I reflash my A100 with update.zip, just put it on SD card through card reader.
now it's work fine.
Sorry for my english.

I am unable to flash using the update.zip method, as I always get the message:
recovery verified failed. spin forever (in red letters).

i've this problem too. No way to solve it. Someone have found a solution?

I've solved putting update.zip into the SDcard and running recovery at startup.
Before using this system the tab remains with the android symbol with the " ! " inside it and nothing happen. After that, I've erased any data in the SD, placed update.zip in it and powered up using power button+left volume, or right, I don't remamber. But finally it works.

I tried that as well with a freshly erased sd card 2gb. Still get the recovery verified failed in red letters.
Anyone? Help please.

Are you pressing the correct combination at startup? I've seen that there are several combination. Have you tried pushing hardly both volumeup&down?

How did you get this number anyway? CPUID must be something like this 039061c0424f3417.If you using Windows download USBDeview if your device is been connected to PC before to brick it you will see his CPUID.

already done that

[Q] Please ! Urgent Help. ARC keep rebooting :(

Hi guys,
I rooted my device today actually. And did many customising. It was all good until half a hour ago.
I Uploaded my frameware-res.apk and SystemUI.apk to UOT Kitchen. Made Window animation Bounce. Download cooked file, copyed to system. Gave permission and moved to right folders (SystemUI.apk to system/app , framework-res.apk to system/framework) .. Than rebooted and it is still rebooting. It is just keep rebooting it self. I can see "Sony Ericsson" title and boot animation. After boot animation it reboot itself I tried to flash it but it says " Open your phone and Enable USB debugging" but i can't do it What can i do now ? Please someone help
Is there anyway to change files (files in root like framework-res.apk etc.) in Phone without opening it. Or maybe via PC with any program?
I also tried PC Companion it can see the phone connected, but when i try to Update (for restore option). It says Open your phone and connect it to PC.
Please guys someone help me
Thank you for reading.
Best Regards.

Search for SEUS (Sony Ericsson Update Service) and repair using that instead (don't need phone to be on for that to work).

Thank you so much so much for this bro
I wish you all the best.

Yes, it is dangerous. But i don't care bro
This is why i rooted my phone. It feels so good, freedom.
I'm gonna be little more careful now
Thank you

phone won't shut down even 'volume up+power'

tried to replace systemUI.apk using ES file explorer
moved the apk to \system, changed permission, then to \system\app
confirmed overwrite action
screen instantly turned black with nothing but 'XPERIA' in the middle of it, i.e. the screen u see everytime phone boots up
volume up+power pressed won't shut it down
only way is to wait the battery dies out?
desperately need some help here:crying: many thanks!!

Are you deodexed?
You'll probably need to drain battery.

Couple things to keep in mind - you should use Root Explorer or sim., I found file manager like ES/Astro doesn't do the job right. You should move the file & change permission in /System first before move to /System/app.
As right now, you can try again holding firmly both power+vol.up - until vibrate one (dont hold too long vibrate 3 times will give you softbrick). If not then Yes you do have to wait for battery die out. There is no other way unless dig in the phone manually remove battery - very hard to do, I tried unsuccessful.
If you have cwm & backup. After charge get in cwm & restore. Otherwise reflash rom.

yes phone is deodexed.
luckily the battery level was at 14% before going 'soft brick'
didn't wait too long and phone shut down in 1.5 hour
then i plugged in charger and successfully powered on phone this morning:victory:
system UI has been changed to what i have replaced with before crash
shall i flash zip in CWM if it is more safety? if yes how do i create a zip file?
thanks in advance:highfive:

If I had read this tips before then I don't need disassemble my phone!
I meet same problems when I replaced a font lib with ES explorer half an hour before, but I made a mistake to hold power+vol.up until vibrate 3 times(I never use this feature before)
Fortunately the phone recovered after 5 minutes disassemble/assemble!

next time, press voulme up + power for about 15 seconds
when it vibrate three times it will be off
