It was absolutely same step. More like a replica

What is based, in the sense of which type of custom recovery. CWM or TWRP

Wetin concern you concern touch Wiz, nothing. It's a project I wanna carry out.

I got nothing else to say. It ain't a competition.

i used sp flash tools to format the phone. that was the last thing i did.
AFTER THAT, I RAN SOME FEW TEST WITH SP FLASH TOOLS:

AND GOT THE FOLLOWING:

External RAM:

ERROR: External RAM was not detected!!

NAND Flash:

ERROR: NAND Flash was not detected!
RAM Test

SKIP! External RAM was not detected!
EMMC Test

EMMC Pattern Test(0x5A5A):

FAILED!!

Although i have returned it back to where i bought it and i was told they will send it to TECNO for repairs, that i will be billed if the fault is from me( which obviously is). was told to check back in two weeks.

i still hear sound when i plugged it in my PC.
I guess u have to wait 2weeks grin

oga hollaslyd,
i think i'm now in a terrible situation, my f7 doesn't come on again, even when i plug it to charge while off, the battery animation is no more showing screen light is not even coming on again, every thing is dead. could that mean i will be the first to have a bricked F7?


hmmm not bricked its in a semi dead state i think what you do now is remove tha ba3 and connect the phone to your pc if it makes the device connected sound continously for like 3 times then it can be revived if it doesnt its dead till further notice

Apologies for making it too personal. Time spent and editing might have just frustrated me in being blunt.
I ported the twrp from scratch from team win recovery project source file to f7.
When you flash the recovery. Backup with it. The folder you will get in backup folder will convince you.
Though not perfect though. Rebooting is not properly mapped so you have to pull battery to reboot.

No further support on this device.
I don't use the phone anymore.
Re: Rooting Tecno F7 by cube2012: 9:55am On Jun 26, 2013
hollaslyd u dissapoint me i thought u knew better hiw should you port twrp and to reboot u remove ur ba3 did u create the twrp with the scatter file before porting it with spflash?

Any Phone or tablet wey no get support for XDA DEVELOPER, can easily brick,.All tecno and other china phone users....... always stop in rooting your phone.,,,any device without developer support i you want to do your own, you will be on your own,..If you don't know what you are doing, don't root...
if your tecno f7 has brick you can take it to their office they may help FIX it with your money because no more warrant,..
I ordered a tablet from china and have try all effort to root no way,..guy i have to use it like that, than having a brick tablet,..it keep tell me ...........permission denied!............am not doing again i give up,..
I have easily root N3, N7 and i beleive it will work for F7...
pls Note::Flashing cmw or rom on china devices are highly dangerous, if you don;t know what you are doing,..

abbeyseto: guys, yawa don gas o!!! After i rooted my f7, i was feeling fly so i decided to do some tweeking, i saw an app called "chainfire 3D" after installing and granting SuperUser acess, the app notified me to install some drivers which i did and i was prompted to reboot and that was it!!! my phone got stuck at the "tecno" screen at boot. it didn't even get to animation part.
I even treid factory reset from "Android recovery system", for where no improvement.

so guys beware!!! watch out for that app.

i need help to resolve this issue. ANY ANDROID GURU, ABEG HELP MY CONDITION.

bluebarz: Am about getting anoder Phantom F7 (white) ryt now. Can't stay without that fone. Will dedicate the bricked one to F7 development when it gets back to me in a months time. Meanwhile I think we really need to read reviews about certain apps before installing them on our devices. God punish Chain Fire 3D.
Exactly my point, we shuld endeavour to read apps reviews b4 dwnlding dem and take precautional note.

Re: Rooting Tecno F7 by Nobody: 11:14am On Jul 04, 2013
Pedro3G:

what do u mean by restore problem
When u click ROOT button on the PC with EROOT v1.0.4, u'll see 1st,2nd and 3rd boxes ticked but the last option does not cos the update is not complete. Its in chinese so i dnt undastand during dis process, Check the screen of ur Tecno N7 and u'll see a pop up mesg, below are two options...
Do not Restore and Restore
dnt click on anything as its supposed to be done automatically.
But with Eroot v1.3.3 everyfin is done automatically once u click on ROOT and the 4 boxes on Eroot(pc screen are ticked).
Now check the menu of ur phone and u'll see super user. Dats all ur N7 is rooted!!!
