[THL 4000] 6GB EBR / PhilZ touch / NVRAM / scatter - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hello guys, just a small, but possibly helpful pack I put together for the THL 4000. This includes PhilZ Touch, 6GB internal EBR (leaves 125MB phone storage), NVRAM bin & tar and scatter. Regards.
Direct MediaFire download: http://www.mediafire.com/download/jgnp9n42tn2db9r/THL_4000_NVRAM_ETC.rar

Awesome!! Thanks a lot!!!
Sir, you transformed my "not bad" phone to a "cool" one!!
I only used the EBRs, worked like a charm! now I got my phone the way it should have been from the beginning!
4GB _internal_ storage only for photos? who thought this might be a good idea??? I couldn't install my apps needed, though everything was put off to SD that was possible and still... but now, the phone rocks, has even a better speed, I'm so happy I can't thank you enough.
I really appreciate what you did. If you'll ever travel to Hungary, drop me a line and be my guest for some beers CHEERS!

Right ...
As I have said on other threads this is down to personal preference. If you are looking for a fast wm6.5 you probably want to look at Shadys Rom. Not sure about 6.1 but there are plenty of lite roms out there to try. Signal strength is determined by the Radio Rom this is separate to the Phone Rom. There is a thread floating about already but in short it varies from person to person.
If you go to start -> settings -> system -> memory (under the main tab) you will see some numbers. Essentially most people are bothered about the program free memory as it allows you to run more/more demanding apps.
I think (I am sure someone will correct me) the flash size of your memory card and the storage is how much is free?
Hope that helps
hi a_lai82..thank you for the answers, really thank you...
the thing about those memory questions is that I didn't have any memory card in the phone at that time, so all that it showed me is what's in the phone, that's why I wanted a clarification...

"need help for noob acer e101"

i had my acer e101 flash from sd card and i think i used flash bin not compatible with my unit. now all i got when i turn on the unit is acer logo flashing one thing, i noticed is that it is flashing to different logo size one is the right as it used to be and the other one i think is from the bin i've flash. i try to hard reset but its not working i also tried to used a diffrent custom rom loader for acer but all i got is up to downloading mode and it will hung up. im new here and i dont how i can fix this? i can just go into download mode but i think i cant go anywhre without the right rom loader/flasher for acer e101.

my friend first of all M2DC is not my work maybe what you are saying is you installed my cooked rom w/c has M2DC. now for your problem about going back to your previous rom obviously you cant do it via acvtive sync bec as you are saying you cant change a language this error come out bec the rom installed now (w/c is my cooked rom) is .13_EN, means that it is originated from english version purely no sub language w/c is in the case of the one you are trying to install that is .04_EN_IN. this is english with your sub language of your local language where the unit came from. now the solution is use the recovery via dowload mode. i have already posted for this and you can also dowload this here with step by step instruction. DIGG in and search everything you need. if you cant find it i'll post it again for you. thanks alot for trying my rom.
Thank you soo much my friend you save my phone .... i follow all your instruction and my phone is ok now ... thank you very much..

Well, do not know how to stay out of this with google translation , I hope I explain well
the problem is because the white lines was safe settings as the previous rom flash with new rom the previous settings in the nand flash was not loaded ok ... I also passed through the white lines
We split ... from what I 've seen in the descriptions of your phone have the same but with different names, things Chinese , the same processor and the same specifications of memory ram and rom also the cameras and the screen, which is 480x854 resolution . Ok , here is the rom to retrieve the phone , that if after trying several times hehe, well I found the problem when I put it to recover that failed was just starting BKF_NV , well after trying and trying , reaching the following configuration : wITH ResearchDownload 2.9.7007 ( that I use ) drivers " SciU2S " installed 'll Options ( second tab ) and give it to " Repartition " and "Reset to Normal", then the third is backup pesteña delete all options, then on the fourth tab view all options are removed and clean but the last putting Erase All Flash and loaded .... if flashing goes well start playing nothing but end with the word Orro .
do not use the left upgradedownloader because not configure
here is the rom that I use:vvv.vvv.vvv.needrom.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/S18_JHT_DS_ORRO_FT5306_256M_EN_V02-A9500.zip[/url]

the phone in china cost around 50 pounds, i think to buy one more download software with all data etc. save in pac format and reflash the old one.
Problem is because i'm not sure the free software can make full backup and save to pac format
Volcano box can due this only is cost around 100 pounds
I brought two of those model's for my niece and nephew for x-mas. After they unpacked it and set it up, they notice some of the buttons are not working. So after contacting the seller directly over the phone they emailed me two of the firmware. it was hit and miss, one work perfectly on one phone and so was the other.
****EDIT***** sorry I can't post outside links. so, they are both uploaded to my mediafire
/download/zqsnu8ma1izvrcv/
and
/download/um14hr6ib630ttd/
just add the mediafire url at the beginning and it should lead to the download. If you need the whole link for some reason just PM me.
They are both in .PAC format to be use with researchdownload. And one more thing make sure on the Calibration tab, uncheck everything or else it will fail at FDL2. The older one label the V06 has more option but just make sure nothing is checked also.
My phone model is the HTM GT-T9500-B SC6820 with the 5" screen. So try them both. :fingers-crossed:

[Modifying]A10 Chinese 2 DIN Car Audio WinCE6+Android 4.x.x with "GIBROID"

Hi all
I want to present you the work done by Serg090909 on the 2 Din Chinese Car audio system many people begin to use.
This sort of Car audio use WinCe 6.0 for Radio/TV/BT and the Android part for GPS and everything android can handle.
I only found information about modification in russian language by this famous guy i want to thanks gratefuly : Serg090909.
He made possible to boot from Sd-Card new builds (apollo tvbox and caravn776 build) for this sort of car audio and called it "GIBROID".
With this way, you don't touch at the Nands and don't damage your system.
Insert back your original Sd-Card to boot normally, nothing is replaced in the nands when you switch to your GIBROID Sd-Card
Work has been done to backup your nand and write nand again, but for end users GIBROID from Sd-Card is a better thing and the easiest way to do.
You can find the link here :

I 'll post pictures and updates to this thread and if anybody is interested in helping me reporting in English the continuous work of Serg090909 you are welcome to participate and report results here.
Thank you and have happy tests.
To readers : Respect the rules of XDA Forums and don't link to warez sites where you could found information about this
To moderators : Could it be possible to give me the right to post hyperlink or if not possible i'll wait 10 posts
To Serg090909 : I don't speak russian and Google translations are not easy so if you want to help here you'll be my guest star
HOW TO :
Install GIBROID on Sd-Card :
- Use Win32 Disk Imager (sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager) to Format Sd-Card and write "GIBROID-4G-11012014.img".
This image is 4g space. You can use max 32g Sd-Card, but since this operation use all the space of the Sd card you are invited to expand the rest of the Sd-card space for User space
- Use MiniTool® Partition Wizard Home Edition 8.1.1 (partitionwizard.com/free-partition-manager.html) to expand the Sd-Card space.
- Place your GIBROID Sd-card inside the GPS Slot and keep safely your original Sd-Card.
Screenshots to Switch from Apollo to Caravn :
See (Screenshots) Switch from Apollo to Caravn.rar Attachments
Backup/Write Nand for "experts" :
Dump to the Sd-Card
- Download the script a10-Backup-SH (See Attachments). Copy it in the root of the SD card
- Install SU and Android Terminal Emulator with Play Store
- Run the terminal and see the operating system prompt a dollar sign ($)
- Type su and press Enter
- Type cd/mnt/extsd
- Type sh a10-backup.sh all
Restore Dump
See "Restore Dump" attachments
Compatibility List :
Klyde KD-7200d
Erisin
N708
Post your models
...
...
Hints :
Not related to GIBROID, this sort of car audio have a Hidden Menu in WinCE6 Part.
Hidden Menu :
- Go to settings
- Press 1357 with the remote controller
- Tadaaa !
Credits and Thanks all goes to Serg090909 and all the peoples involved in explanations, informations and helps.

WOW, thanks!
I installed this image onto a SD-card and it worked! It is verry stable and I didn't have any hang ups on boot! GREAT!
I have a couple of questions/remarks
The boot image is a skull and I want to change it to something more friendly Where can I find this image to change it, using total commander to do it for example?
Thing is: Now my bluetooth dongle doesnt work anymore. I have the buetooth button but I cannot turn it on (well, I can but it turns off again)
Even if I try to connect my dongle directly without HUB it doesnt respond. Is this a driver issue or do I have a wrong dongle for this image? The old serge Image did work with my dongle so can someone tell me if they have BT working and which dongle they use?
Also, the Wifi dongle doesn't work as well as it used to. I didn't have much time to figure out what happens but it connects but drops connection and doesnt work that great,. I will keep you guys informed if I know what the wifi dongle does and doesn't do.

Thing is: Now my bluetooth dongle doesnt work anymore. I have the buetooth button but I cannot turn it on (well, I can but it turns off again)
Even if I try to connect my dongle directly without HUB it doesnt respond. Is this a driver issue or do I have a wrong dongle for this image? The old serge Image did work with my dongle so can someone tell me if they have BT working and which dongle they use?
Also, the Wifi dongle doesn't work as well as it used to. I didn't have much time to figure out what happens but it connects but drops connection and doesnt work that great,. I will keep you guys informed if I know what the wifi dongle does and doesn't do.

Serg090909 is working on a new build that will be released shortly based on Apollo. The Bluetooth will work again.
Teaser
The actual build you use don't contain Bluetooth libraries, that's why you can't use Bluetooth (can be implemented manually with terminal but didn't test since a new release is coming).
Of course you can change the wallpaper as you wich like you would do with your phone and the boot image too (but i didn't digg to find the boot image actually).
I don't know what to say about your wifi, my dongle works like a charm without connection drop.. Maybe the wifi implementation was a bit buggy for some.. Let's wait for the new release !

Thanks Chandler13!
You and Serge090909 have been a real help on this topic. First I thought no one would care about these android radios and I would be stuck with the stock firmware! Now, I have a radio which does so much more and it looks nice! Even if there is going to be a new release which I cannot wait to put into my radio!. The teaser looks nice and has a great look/skin. I didnt understand what this apollo was, is this the musicplayer? It looks great anyway! I was just wondering, since we are running the OS from a SD-card, is it possible to make the internal memory a little bit bigger. This way we could install apps with no bother that it runs out of memory. 2 GB would be more then enough. I am running the OS from a 32GB-Sdcard so I have room to spare :laugh:
Thanks for the tip for the background, I allready changed the background but I didn't find the boot-image either...
I allready solved the problem with the wifi-dongle. I was in my car and next to my home, but my wifi signal wasn't that great. I used my iphone to make a hotspot and it worked like no other!

Apolllo Tv is another build in short, Serg090909 gived us the choice to launch the "Caravn" build, or the Apollo Build at first start till you choose to boot only one of both. Clean launcher parameters to take a look at apollo UI.
I just reported the very good work done by Serg090909 and i'm glad i'm not the only "french-english and others" to enjoy his work.
Believe me, it's a pain in the ass to traduce russian to english for a french ..
Of course you can expend the partition, i'll post more about this and making own builds.
And about a surprise i'm preparing for the WinCe part....... :angel:
To be Continued..

Nice! I love surprises
I also had the honor to translate some posts from Serge into english and I must say Google translate does a hell of a job. I didn't expect that :good:
Sure, you do get a lot of jibirish but if you read carefully you can allways make out what it says.
I'm actually dutch so my french isn't that good either. So i'm glad this wasn't in french or else I would be translating my ass off
Keep me updated about your surprise and the new build. I can't wait!
Any news on this new ROM?

Man, I'm very grateful for your big help! I have a N708 installed in my new civic 11 and the worst problem is that all I install in android comes to the internal memory not to the SD card, can I change this?
Move to NAND??
Hi I´m from Argentina, and I also must thank Serg090909, Chandler13 and Google translator. They made up a team that brought my unit back to life!
I had a problem with my original rom and screwed it up trying to fix it with terminal commands. It didn't boot at all and I couldn´t find a solution until this thread.
Now, I wanted to know if there is any way to flash this rom to the internal nand. I got nothing to lose since the damage is already done.
Thanks in advance!
Hi all !
Hello,
I'm french and I'm interested by this thread forum...sorry for my English.
The mine update via sd card too.
I have this model of car audio (WinCE 6 + Android 4)
Can confirm that it would work with my car radio?
Otherwise, I do not understand ... What can it do for me? boot other bluids with bluetooth support ? no affect my actual firmware ?
PS : I try this : in CE mode : Go to settings, Press 1357 with the remote controller..... but nothing appear
--> This might help people who have the same as me!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Otherwise, I had a startup problem on android, I asked the firmware to the dealer:
I managed to restart ... but it does not have me delete all my installed apps, just allowed me to restart (I do not know how, but its work (the firmware is 210 MB).
This firmware link (with explanation) :
https://www.wetransfer.com/download...71d307e45402858f585c713020140228070442/b7d4f9
thx!
Reflashing
I think that this thread is dead. I hope I`m wrong, since is the only one that deals with firmware for the device I have.
I tried to connect my laptop to the head unit and flash the firmware to nand but i failed.
What I did:
1) power off unit
2) connect laptop to USB OTG where the wifi dongle is, using a male-male usb cable.
3) power on unit holding menu and volume knob pressed.
4) screen goes black and stays there.
5) computer detects nothing.
Possible causes:
My android system is beyond repair ( I don't think this could be the problem, since it boots perfectly with gibroid on SD card)
too many extensions for usb cable. 1from the back of the unit to the dashboard and then the "male-male" usb cable...
Many many other of which I have absolutely no Idea.
In addition to this, livesuit tells me that gibroid image is not valid.
Any ideas?

Hi,
This is not OTG, in order to connect to android part via USB you'll have to disassemble the unit and find a real usb otg on android board. it is located right next to the socket where the 'wifi' marked cable is connected.

I've been reading about phoenix card software. Apparently it could flash the firmware from an SD card for allwiner chips. I guess I could try that before disassembling the unit. I'll let you all know how that goes.

Samsung Galaxy S4 MT6572 GT-I9500 no service solution !!!

hello ! after a week of testing ive finally found a solution for samsung galaxy s4 clone ( mt6572 gt-i9500 ). with no service !
Soo , you have no service and can't make calls ! follow this instructions and you will be talking on your phone in no time
Its very simple : ( i'll add the necessary links / software for this job )
1. you need SP_Flash_Tool_exe_v3.1316.0.150
2. you need the WORKING ROM ! modified by me
3. you need MtkDroidTools
( this version is allready modified to work with mt6572 )
The procedure :
we must first format the phone using SP_Flash_Tool_exe_v3.1316.0.150 . soo we open the program and select the scatter file.txt atached in the rom . hit format and then hit OK.
Now remove the battery and connect the usb cable to the phone. it will start formatting the phone. wait till is ready ( you will see a green circle )
At this point , the phone is ready to receive the new ROM
you have allready selected the scatter file early'r .
THIS STEP IS VERY IMPORTANT !!! uncheck the CACHE and USRDATA at the bottom.
Now hit Download button , you will get a warning message, just press YES
Now put the baterry back into the phone, and connect the usb cable. wait till the process end's and when you see the green circle you can disconect the phone, remove the battery, insert back the battery and power on the phone , and voila !! your phone have working network !!
Next step is to write the IMEI...
Use MtkDroidTools ( you must have debugging mode on in the phone ) connect the phone to the usb cable, wait till MtkDroidTools see your phone , and then hit the big imei button. There you must provide the imei number ( you can find it under the battery ) after that you hit write imei and then reset your phone and you are good to go
I presume that you allready have the usb drivers ( if not, i can also provide them )
For other questions use the forum below
If i have saved your day, maybe you consider making a small donation ( for that, use the DONATE TO ME button under my name )
Have a nice day !
Thanks for this tut, @pacattosul its very easy to follow, unlike some I've come accross, could I ask this?, will this not work by just using Mtkdroid tools as in the latter part of your tutorial? without the need of flashing a new rom?
Also I hope you dont mind a bit of constructive criticism, the developer of Mtkdroid tools @rua1 has specifically asked that his program is not placed on other sites for download, perhaps you could just change your post to link to his thread, here..... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2160490 Plus I do feel you are rather inviting problems by not specifying the details and build of your device that you have tested this method on, I don't have this phone but I'm sure there are quite a few different versions out there and the result of flashing the wrong preloader for your device can be a $200 paperweight, as I'm sure you know, and with that in mind I would stress that before embarking on this, a full backup is desirable in case it all goes t*ts up. Hope you don't mind my mentioning this stuff, if you decide to make those few minor changes, I'll edit and delete this paragraph, don't want to spoil your thread.
hello oscarblue48 !
i really don't mind that you point my mistakes... im actually happy cause as you say, MTKtools its somebody's work and should really be apreciated. BUT, this tutorial only work's with this special version of MTKtools !! i'm not responsable if you use any other tools/versions !!
you say that people may broke 200$ phone if they flash this rom... ok it may happend, but only if they mistake the model-version of the phone ! like ive say'd this tutorial and the rom only goes for MT6572 GT-I9500 SAMSUNG GALAXY S4 CLONE !! if they flash this rom on other devices they are responsible for what they do...
Actually , this rom goes for dead phones as well ( as i mentioned on other site ) , so i supose that most of the people , when they reach this tutorial, its for a good known reason
You also ask me if you can only use the mtktools... well you can easylly use that program, but you will probably not change anything inside that phone. most of the people try'd mtktool and complain that the imei remains null or empty after writing with this tool... soo in order to fix the annoyng NO SERVICE problem, i recommend that you follow the entire tutorial
I hope ive answered all your questions, and offcourse if you encounter any problem you can allways comeback and simply ask
Hi bro help me out here is my thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=50483872
I tried your rom but still not working i can enter to recovery mode with different preloader and doesn't show me black screen when turned on as my big problem is i can not format my nand as you will see in my thread i was messing up with boot logo via root as it was rooted with supersu...so any help please as i have tried alot roms and i can't find stock rom for this phone MTK6572_S00 samsung s4 this is made in korea by samsung...and I do not have backup of my rom...
Thanks in advance
Please help
Always getting - 4032(DRAM FAILED) while downloading- Followed same steps !
Appreciate any help
Update:
I have flashed it successfully - Also the IMEI, but still not registering to network.
be aware !! you have the dual sim ( 2 sim ) phone or single sim?? this only works for single sim phone... also, you must not try to flash this on dual sim phone !!
try this... go to settings and at the network tab change the connection mode... chose hspda preffered... that may do the trick !
@pacattosul would you please give me thelink file?cuse i'm having the same problem my device cannot detect any sim card my device is

Thanks anyways
Please could i have the link to the rom?
Many thanks

Could I also have the link for the rom and the usb drivers, please?
