Try helping yourself by giving the details of what you've actually tried to install.

Answer
i do all of the levels step by step and correct , but i steel have problem , first use 'fastboot flash boot boot.img' for flash the cfw kernel and then install the rom from recovery after full wipe , it's compelete but touchscreen not work

ur not giving too much info so its kinda hard to help
BUT i think ur in the recovery and saying touchscreen doesnt work...... can u boot into ur rom using your hard keys?
what rom did u try and install?

Answer
no no , it's possible i'm not in recovery , i say my phone is loaded and up and is in the rom lock screen , yes hardware keys are work corectly , the sound(speaker) is working too because i can dial to my phone but i cant answer the call and i cant unlock touchscreen because touchscreen not work,i try many cfw roms like miui , blend miui , cm fx045,046 and etc , but i still have this problem (touchscreen not work), only the roms are based on official rom work on my phone like se tweaks. my rom version is 0.42 , baseband 56

Try reflash your rom and kernel.

I suspect you're not reading the instructions properly, so pick 1, READ EVERY WORD of the installation instructions, then read them again at every step of the process.

Answer
i'v do it step by step and correct, it's useless , i'v do all of instructions in this site and some other sites , but still have touchscreen problem

You maybe doing all steps.....but you missed something.
If stock working, and any other custom roms dont working, then you missed something.
Not correct firmware, wipe, kernel or etc...

Answer
C= custom ,F=Firm ,W=Ware , custom firmware , i try many type of cfw like miui,blend miui, all of cyanogen mod custom firmwares and etc, but in all of then when i flash kernel with fastboot flash boot boot.img and then full wipe in recovery and install rom too , when i restart the phone and its booted and up, i can,t overtake the lockscreen because touchscreen not work, but all of other phone appurtenance still work correct like antenna,speaker ... etc , only touchscreen not work.only that cfw's based on official rom work on my arc s.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1299729

just so u know its probably a kernal issue. ur probably not flashing the appropriate Kernal for the roms ur installing

Answer
What can i do? please help me, i try all of the ways i know and other's say to me ,,but it's useless and i'v still this problem (touchscreen not work)

I do not know if it helps, but my self I also observed problems with Touch!
It is mainly on the border of the screen especially on the bottom.
It seems that the calibration of the touch is shifted a bit!
I have a LT 18i and opened bootloader and rooted. I use the SAOSIN-MIUI with Doomlord-Kernel for MIUI.
In the Thread for that MIUI also others mentioned problems with touch.
So the problem is maybe real.
It would be usefull to have a tool to "calibrate" the touch...

I'll leave the custom rom stuff to you experts here but what you can try is to use Update Service to flash the phone with official software and then try all over again.
Install Update Service,
http://dl-www.sonyericsson.com/cws/download/1/110/61/1317636927/Update_Service_Setup-2.11.10.7.exe
It might be that the program will tell you that the current software is detected as unofficial and that Update Service for this reason will not be able to proceed - but no harm in trying.

Wonder Boot Loop Problem !

Just doing independent research
From 1:10 wonder has boot loop problem
Although you already do flashing well
No kidding, but the characteristic for the phone that possible have a boot loop are always have FORCE CLOSE app and doing RESTART itself
And in next day it restart and only showing samsung logo...
In this situation you can't get to recovery
It can fixed but only if we get stock firmware with wipe and boot loader to fix this issue
Maybe I8150ZSKI3 Android 2.3.6 (ASIA) can helped, all component to do hard reset is in this firmware
OPS– Ancora.ops.
Boot – APBOOT_I8150ZSKI3_CL613004_REV00_user_low_ship_EMM C.tar.md5.

Sorry, I can't help, but in my flashing thread, it has also been reported. But I think it happens more often on phones with asian firmwares. I had one report in the german forum too, but I am not sure if it was an "asian" version.
I think if something happens while the firmware update with an asian firmware, it might end up in a bootloop. I am not sure, but I think it makes also the partitioning of the storage, isn't ?
It would be good if we could get a "gettogether" in this thread and have all the reports of the soft-/hardbricked SGWs. So we can analyse and maybe find out the reason or atleast narrow down the issue.
I would like to know:
1. Did you have a custom rom before the flash ?
2. Was your phone rooted ?
3. Did you make the internal/external swap ?
4. Did ODIN say PASS before you disconnected(before the bootloop happend) ?
5. Any other fancy modifications you have done and what we should know ;-D ?

My team already try for asian rom that you provide in your tread and the new version of stock rom. it didn't do full wipe just normal flash like the others
Only stock rom & rooted bro...
PASS but the phone not turn on -_-"
No swap partitions
Just regular phone for daily use
If we can found the stock rom with wipe and bootloader still can be fixed
Hopefully it can be fixed without go to samsung -_-
All of us must aware for this issue bro..

I have edited my thread, it makes people now more alert about the risk of bricking.
Maybe it is more secure always wiping everything using ClockWorkMod:
Using this course of action:
1. Backup everything manually what you can!
2. Flash via ODIN ClockWorkMod Recovery on your device(english). Scroll down to other and select ClockWorkMod.
3. Once ClockWorkMod is flashed, go to the recovery:
a) backup and restore -> backup to external sdcard
b) backup and restore -> restore from external sdcard
This is to make sure the files aren't corrupted, if this is successful you can be sure everything is backupped. If you get a MD5 mismatch something went wrong. Try again!
c) wipe data/factory reset -> confirm
d) wipe cache partition -> confirm
e) mounts and storage -> format system -> confirm
f) mounts and storage -> format cache -> confirm
g) mounts and storage -> format data -> confirm
4. You restart your phone in Download Mode and flash a firmware using this instruction, which is provided in the thread under Firmwares.
5. Now you will have to flash again the ClockWorkMod recovery to restore your data.
Than open ClockWorkMod Recovery and:
backup and restore-> advanced restore from external sdcard -> select the backup -> Restore data -> confirm.
Now if you want the stock recovery back(needed for OTA updates) instood of ClockWorkMod, than go to the Others or Sonstiges and select the stock recovery, and flash it on your device.
6. Now you should have a fresh device like you have never flashed before!!!
Oh yeah, the reason why you have to make these complicated steps: Because you were flashing all different kinds of firmwares, you system will be a mess. To make sure your device is not a overwritten old firmware these steps are necessary.
Flashing via ODIN does not delete all old data !!!
I have to say also: I have flashed all the ROM's successfully before posting them in my thread about flashing.

Yes he already inform this...
But the question why just only him that get boot lop, this is kind a strange because another user didn't face the problem like this
His problem happened after applying V6 SC
I know that V6 SC update 9 RC6 have a change for boot lop, because for applying 100% must integrated built.prop
So many friend of my use V6 SC update 9 RC4 that more stable for our phone
Actually there is nothing different if we flash with nandroid and update.zip
The script doing same thing except for the user data
nandroid use md5 for more safety flashing
Like i wrote before..
Before this happen the phone always do restart it self
I hope there is any progress for prevent and fix this issue
The user that have this problem, now must go to Samsung to fix it before we know how to fix it
Regards

I'd like to say this sudden restart happen to me quite often while in stock rom, but after I flash custom rom this phenomenon never happen again. This phenomena only happen while I'm on stock rom.

Update for this..
My friend reported..
For my country, we get FULL WARRANTY for this case
and waiting this status until fixed about 2 days
For the first phase they do regular Flashing with STOCK ROM based on country
then it still cannot on (we know already -_-)
We didn't sure yet is the phone will be change with the new one or not because this had implication from hardware issue..
Come back latter..

And my friend want me to re write black notes chapter 3
It will come next week

A little late in reading this post but I also bought my Galaxy W from Ebay. Samsung user agreement states that the phone is guaranteed for 2 years after the date of sale and the agreement is transferable between owners. In other words it doesn't matter who originally bought it but is guaranteed for 2 years and our phone is still less than 2 years old. I know this as had to send mine back and they accepted it.

ICS 4.0.4 (korean) CWM-flashable (ZIP, includ. CWM Touch / ROOT)

The Wizard YongShi over at gfan.com did it!!!
Original Post here
Original ICS 4.0.4 (Korean for LU6200 only!!!) as CWM flashable Zip-Version.
Including CWM 5.8.2.0 (Touch-Version) and ROOT!!!
Original Link / Baidu
Mirror / Dropbox / Part 1 of 2
Mirror / Dropbox / Part 2 of 2
No more hassle with flashing a KDZ file first, after that rooting and whatever...
Just flash this Zip-file in CWM (no matter what Version 2.3.5 / ICS you have right now.
Please note:
Wipe cache/data/dalvik/battery and also format cache/system/data/ (in "mounts and storage") before flashing the Zip-file or it won't boot after flashing!!!
After flash is finished, reboot into recovery and wipe cache/data/dalvik/battery and reboot system. Now you should be on ICS 4.0.4 and also rooted.

depending on the location, baidu storage can be extremely slow.
anyway, im really enjoying this update, but anyone knows if there is any possibility to get a stable version of CM9 for LU6200?

No CM9 for LU6200, i asked Ricardo (Dev) a long time ago. They never planned to port it to LU6200.
But with the ICS out, i see no need for CM9 at the moment.
@ali_alex: I will upload it to Dropbox and update the Link later.

Updated the Links, now also available on Dropbox.

Set up your phone number
Try this
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.lytsing.myphonenumber
Or use a old phone to set up phone number

Sorry for asking, but what exactly means setup the phone number? On the SIM card?
Before ICS on GB 2.3 i had a little app named Sim Toolkit, it installed automatically after i inserted my SIMcard. But that prog is not available anymore.
Weird thing is that i know that the call logs were working on the fresh installation of ICS.

Thanks. But not working for me, cant install the app. It says thats its not compatible with apps which share the same user ID.
Does this mean that everytime one gets a new phonecard, have to do this stuff?
I guess its a little embarrasing for users who dont know a lot about it.
I tried to associate my number with my SIM card on my wife's phone. But back in my phone the number is still not available.

I flashed the new ROM from gfan.com now. All is working well including call logs, still without "my number".
Also they managed to make the weird Icon on the upper right disspear and the ROM is already debloated. I just had to reinstall google apps pack.
http://bbs.gfan.com/android-4333749-1-1.html

that weird icon appears when the phone is in a situation where it can't make 3G video call.. which is usually available in Korea only.
anyway, how did you download the new version? I browsed the chinese forum, and.. i'm just lost there even after using google translator. could you upload the new one on somewhere else just like you did for the earlier one?
update: never mind, i found a way to download it. have you noticed any performance difference between the first release and the v4?

Thanks for clarifiying what that weird logo is for.
It's definitly faster and the battery time is also better. With the stock ICS my RAM usage was going up without doing much,
and now on that ROM the usage is half with same configuration/apps.
The guys have lot of experiences in making custom ROMs, and for me it works.

Thanks so much for sharing the files on dropbox, currently still downloading them. Btw, when you boot with this rom, does the ICS engineer version message on the upper left of the screen pop up?
And after the animated boot logo finishes, does "Android is Upgrading.. Optimizing Applications" also show up?
If you have a download link of gapps for LU6200, I'd appreciate it a lot if you can share it.
Thanks again!

Please note, that the ROM on Dropbox is the ICS 4.0.4 already rooted with CWM Touch but not debloated, that means untouched.
The link i posted later is a new debloated and optimized version but they also debloated google apps.
You can find the google apps pack here: http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip
Just boot into CWM and flash the zip like you flash ROM zip's.
Engineer version shows up on all boot screens for ICS (LU6200) at the moment, because it was the only way to bring root and CWM onto the phone. (because the had to flash engineer version before the stock KDZ to get it work)
But it does not mean that the ROM is engineer version, its 4.0.4.
"Android is upgrading" message did not appear on the ROM version i had before, but on the actual one it is.
Only one thing i dont understand, why its always "media scanning" the SDcard and thats sometimes for a long time. Maybe its my card, but in GB it never appeared.

Thanks for the link and other information. More power to you and hope we can get some more variety of custom roms for the LU6200. BTW storing the roms on Dropbox was very ideal for Dropbox users like me since copying the file into my Dropbox account was instantaneous!
I've been browsing the Chinese sites using Google Chrome w/ its built in translator but downloading from from their links seems impossible and ultra slow if the free download was selected

Your welcome...
If you need a ROM from gfan.com or other chinese sites, just let me know. I can upload it for you, since i am in China so the DL rate is much better here.
For Mozilla Firefox there is a very good translation tool available, its now also working with Google Chrome.
http://www.perapera.org/
I've made an account on 115.com its like the chinese dropbox, there i also can just copying the ROMs to... if the Uploader also stored it there.

Custom roms for alcatel one touch pop c9

Please help me custom roms for my alcatel one touch pop c9 and how to flash the Rom! Thanks in advance!

You should try first the Rooting process.
Use this one, it works.
The Video it's in spanish but it worked for the OWN s4025 tha't it is supposed to be the same exactly phone.
Be sure to make a backup of your phone first.
-install Root Checker from the App Store.
-check that your phone is not rooted (should be not rooted obviously)
-check the options for isntalling unknown apps.
-download this .apk and put it on your microSD somewhere.
-install it then follow the instructions in the Video. (at this part you shouldn't be needing to know Spanish. just copy what he is doing till the end. Very easy)
...and if you don't know how to do any of this or some parts, then it means you shouldn't be trying to do this kind of stuffs honestlly
hope it works.
I don't have an Alcatel pop c9 so I can't say it will work but it should be.
IF ANYONE CAN TEST THIS FIRST THAT WOULD BE NICE.
Good luck.

The Video it's in spanish but it worked for the OWN s4025 tha't it is supposed to be the same exactly phone.
Be sure to make a backup of your phone first.
-install Root Checker from the App Store.
-check that your phone is not rooted (should be not rooted obviously)
-check the options for isntalling unknown apps.
-download this .apk and put it on your microSD somewhere.
-install it then follow the instructions in the Video. (at this part you shouldn't be needing to know Spanish. just copy what he is doing till the end. Very easy)
...and if you don't know how to do any of this or some parts, then it means you shouldn't be trying to do this kind of stuffs honestlly
hope it works.
I don't have an Alcatel pop c9 so I can't say it will work but it should be.
IF ANYONE CAN TEST THIS FIRST THAT WOULD BE NICE.
Good luck.

Alcatel recently publish a Source Code for Alcatel C9, OT-7047D, which is required for making a Custom ROM. So after that I was persistent to find some mods for this phone and finally I found it on Russian forum.
Here are some custom ROMs for Alcatel C9 under the tab "Прошивки" - http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=569984&st=1500
I use AOSP with Lollipop style for a while and it is very stable and clean. The AOSP version is cleaner but have some camera issues (pink/red blur). You can try also MIUI or LEWA if you like Huawei look. I hope that someone will put some decent cyanogen mod soon. There is no better in my opinion. Good luck everyone and post here if you find other ROMs or custom Kernels (for overclock).

pop c9 overclockable kernel
can you help me to find a overclockable kernel for pop c9 ? :laugh: :highfive:

For custom ROM visit Alcatel c9 ph on facebook!

Hi guys, can someone please post tutorial step by step how to flash custom ROMs on Alcatel Pop C9 7047D and provide links for tools and files necessary? Been flashing phones for many years now, but this is the first device with MTK chipset and I am afraid to do something that will brick my device.

Hey man, thanks a lot... This is pretty much the same as all my flashing on Qualcomm devices. My device is already rooted and Mobile Uncle tools are nstalled. Also, I installed Xposed framework and Gravity box. Can I enter the custom Recovery before flashing the rom and backup my stock rom now? Asking because you said "before entering recovery place the rom on sd card".

Yes, You can enter into recovery every time You want, it's not a problem.

Just flashed Note 3 rom, everything works perfectly, finally can satisfy my flashing addiction cause this is the only phone in the house which hasn't been flashed so far All other 6-7 phones are being flashed on a weekly/monthly basis. Thanks a lot, guys!

After testing Note 3 Rom for a while, everything works fine but I can't stand that Touchwiz and complete Samsung UI so I flashed AOSP L Style which looks far more better... Bugs I've noticed so far are that notifications doesn't always sound, like the phone is on silent and sometimes a bit laggy response. But it was flashed last night so need more time to test. Cheers!

How we can manage to get our own forum for Alcatel C9 and maybe for C5 and C7, since there's a custom recovery and custom roms for these devices?

They are compatible for version 7047A?

I think they are, since only difference is that A model supports UMTS 850MHz while D model doesn't. Everything else is virtually the same.

Working zip of Chinese stock rom for 6045I

First of all I am not a established developer still learning android system...... if anything creates problems after flashing this rom or after installing, dont blame me..
Proudly present the rom for Idol 3 6045I ported from it Chinese sibling TCL I806.
Fully working on my 6045I. Its stock 5.0.2 from TCL I806.
Many chinese apps have been removed but still few remains which can be removed by getting root.
Features:
1. Less Lags.
2. Fast.
3. Camera is working far better than the recent updates provided for 6045I.
How to install:
Caution : Before doing this, please make backup of your system & efs as mentioned by Famewolf in his thread of making backups.
1. Just download the zip from the link provided below and keep it in the root of sdcard.
2. Also download the gapps provided in the links. First link is which I installed on my device and second one is the latest. Keep it also in the root of the sdcard.
3. Now just boot into recovery mode i.e. TWRP , do not wipe anything, script will do it itself and just go to install and choose the stock chinese rom for 6045I.zip and flash.
4. Let the process to complete. It will ask to restart the system and just restart the system.
5. After first start choose language and other options, again boot into recovery mode and flash the gapps provided.
6. Here the stock chinese rom will run smoothly on your 6045I.
7. If TWRP gives error "error in executing binary" then you have to manually edit the updater-script but it depends on what your TWRP says about the error. So just ask me I will tell you what changes to make in updater-script.
After couple of manual restarts or with time rom will start to run smoothly.
Links :
Rom : removed due to some problems occurred after flashing.
gapps : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95784891001614559 or https://basketbuild.com/gapps (choose android 5.0).
For any kind of help regarding to this rom pm me or just ask in this thread.
I will try my best
Caution : Does not works on 6045Y & 6045K.
Backup efs also in case u loose ur IMEI or having error of unknown baseband/ no network
If you like my work, dont forget to hit thanks......
Sorry for all the trouble caused.
Well I am also in the same boat as well.....

Woohoo. Gonna download this!!!

Now going to sleep, as have to go office in morning......

Quick question. Can this rom read/write ExFat? I'd rather have my sd card formatted to that so that i can store larger movie files.

Are there any real noticeable differences besides less lag and fast? Those two mean almost the same thing. Does this ROM offer anything major that the US stock ROM doesn't? Awesome work though making a new ROM for the community to try. We appreciate your work. :good:

One enhancement I read about was that it did have newer camera software. Many of the packages included are newer version levels than the ones included on our phones because the i806 came out after our models.

You should consider removing the system update checker from your custom rom. The icon appears in your screenshots so I'm assuming it's still included. Since the build.prop says it's a 6045i but it has the i806 codebase patches will never apply since the checksum's won't match.....so depending on what "version" it thinks it's on vs the update version the update checker will either never show an update or always show an update.

OK. I think I have this working. The ROM seems to be functional for me. Downloading all my apps now and getting it set up how I like. Will try to run it through the day tomorrow and see what I like and don't like... not expecting much difference over stock, but we'll see.

Anyone have a suggestion for a lollipop compatible "minimal gapps?" I'm really only interested in google play and gmail..no need for google+ etc.

I might still have a PA micro gapps file somewhere. Just need to see if it's 5.0 or 5.1.
Edit: Here you go. Just pick up the zero gapps. It works perfectly.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2792842
Another option is the Slimgapps official thread here. They do have a "zero gapps" package, and both 5.x I think.

Yupp bro.
Just edit build.prop with notepad++ and change it to 6045Y instead of 6045I and flash the rom.
Then check the log of TWRP specially before the error in executing updater binary.
It will say something about the check_cu.
If you will open updater script with notepad++ you will see first line of command saying "check_cu("6045I-2AALUS7");"
Just change this line ("6045I-2AALUS7") with the line shown in the TWRP similar to this ( something like 6045Y-XXXXXXX)
Then again flash the rom, gapps and hope it will work.
If it works, dont forget to hit thanks button :laugh:

Ok... I'll see, my phone is less than one week old and I swore myself that this one would be kept untouched for a year. I wanted to keep it clean for warranty purpose but one week later... I'm already rooted.
I'm kind of flashaholic so won't resist very long... Don't worry.
What will it update exactly? Is there a risk it will mess up the European radio part? Just to make sure I'll still get a good signal or loose imei.
I do have my twrp backup for boot and system image, will that be enough to get back to a previous working state?
Thanks,

I rooted my phone the next day it came to me,
Eventually i am also not going to get warranty as I imported this device from US to India.
N I personally dont care about warranty as none of the android device gets bricked completely, there is always a way.
Like I got stucked in bootloops in try of porting cm12.1 from other device.Even my backups failed to boot. Then I followed the mobile updater app provided by Alcatel and it simply restored my device to factory rom which will get updates also.
N warranty will not work if the device got physically damaged.
Yes backup will work.
After flashing this rom I would suggest you to make TWRP backup of this rom also alongwith Stock one.
I am getting a lot of range in network selection as it contains all the radios available for this device.
Screenshots of network range:

It's much safer to mod now since with Version 4.9.2 of the Mobile Q software from alcatel (you have to tell it you have a "pixi" for that version to appear as it's so new) allows you to put the phone in "download mode" and fully restore the device to factory condition. (tested by multiple idol 3 users of both the 6039 and 6045) This goes a long way towards making the device unbrickable.

I agree with you bro......:good::good:

Thanks both for your answers. Yes the Alcatel restore software makes things way easier to fix. I already installed it yesterday to make sure my phone drivers are installed for any "phone state". I also have the android sdk installed.
By the way, I am thinking to bring my small contribution to this forum by creating an " ultimate list of mods/softwares/issues" for this phone.
There have been so many news and achivements in the past few weeks, it's a bit difficult to read everything in the correct order.
So last question, how about the radio, imei, etc... Any risk on this?
And then, I think I'll give it a try.

I'm attaching a platform.xml file already modded to allow full read/write access to the external sd (just drop the .zip off the filename as that was just to get xda to allow me to upload it...it's a text file)....you might find it useful to replace this in yours.(/etc/permissions)..other options include pre-rooting...adding in init.d support....etc.

Ran this ROM overnight and through most of my day so far (about 3 hours off the charger). First impression is that it's about the same as stock, not that I was expecting any different. You get the TCL splash screen at boot but the overall UI is pretty much the same. Since I now have root I went ahead and used app quarantine to freeze the bloatware apps I didn't want. Kinda wishing I had installed minimal gapps, but I figure I'll be reflashing again soon since the floodgates are probably about to open with new ROMS anyway.
Conclusion: If you're curious, flash it, it doesn't hurt anything. It may be a hair smoother, and I haven't really tested the camera extensively enough before or after to be able to tell a difference.
Edit: Literally as soon as I submitted this message (from my PC) I went to turn wi-fi off and the phone decided to reboot. Really odd.
