[HOWTO][GUIDE] Root & Backup of
almost EVERY mt65xx based Device
THIS WILL ONLY WORK WITH DEVICES USING
EMMC PARTITION LAYOUT!
otherwise flashtool cannot properly readback
needed files wich will cause a bricked device.
for rooting mt6573 or mt6575 without emmc
partition layout,
refere to this method by rua1: http://
forum.xda-developers.com/
show...01&postcount=5
a custom recovery is needed for that.
ALSO, MAKE SURE YOUR DON'T TRY THAT ON
AN ALCATEL (OR SIMILAR) DEVICE,
INDICATOR HERE IS A CUSTPACK PARTITION
IN SCATTERFILE.
those devices have mt65xx, but have a totally
different partition strukture. You can try this
tutorial, BUT IF YOU BRICK YOUR DEVICE; I
CANNOT HELP YOU OUT!!!
since a lot of devices have different hardware -
e.g. Display or Camera - making a Backup of
your device should have highest priority.
Flashing a wrong ROM can brick your phone!!
What is needed:
HIDE
VCOM Driver, thx to n2k1
ADB, thx to n2k1
MTK Droid Tools V2.46
SP Flashtool V3.1224 for mt6589, newer
flashtool is needed!!! if there are some
problems with reading back or flashing the
device, newer flashtool is needed.
Install the needed drivers. installing VCOM
drivers might take a while, because it will
show up just a few seconds while connecting
the phone(off).
and now the Step-by-Step tutorial to backup
your boot.img, recovery.img and system.img
for rooting.
HIDE
1. enable USB-debugging under Settings-
Development->USB debugging
2. phone should now get recognized as
"Android Phone - Android Composite ADB
Interface" -> if this is a Unknown Device, you
should install the ADB drivers.
3.Open MTK Droid Tools
4. Connect device to USB (USB Debugging has
to be enabled)
5. Device informations has been loaded, Press
on "Blocks Map"
We'll need to find the lines bootimg , recovery
and Android. We'll need to write down Start-
adress(Scatter) and the Size for every line.
(i made a screenshot, writing down isn't
necessary.)
In MY Case, this is:
bootimg: 00F88000 size: 00600000
recovery: 01588000 size: 00600000
Android: 026E8000 size: 31900000
6. Now we'll need to click on "Create Scatter
File" and you can save it as "MT6577_
Android_scatter_emmc.txt "
7. You can Close MTK Droid Tools now.
8. Now we need to open SP Flash Tool and we
need to load the scatter file.
9. Now we'll need to click on "Read Back " in
the top of SP Flash Tool.
Click on "ADD" 3 Times, we will create "ROM_
0", "ROM_1" and "ROM_2" .
10. Doubleclick on "ROM_0" , and select a
place to save it, e.g. C:/N9770_backup/ and
rename it to"boot.img"
11. now it will ask you for the Start Adress
and lengh for bootimg, we wrote down earlier.
this is in my case: Start Address:
0x 00F88000; Lenght: 0x 00600000. the first
" 0x " MUST remain at its place!
12. the same thing you'll need to do for
"recovery" and "android".
13. disconnect, shut down and remove the
battery of your Device.
13. Now we'll need to click on "Read Back",
insert your battery and connect your device to
USB. (VCOM driver is needed now, you'll need
to install it before getting to the next steps)
14. if this were correct, a red bar should
appear on the bottom of SP Flash Tool. you'll
need to wait until the green ring appears.
15.Flash Tool now read back the 3 files.
system.img isn't that important, but boot.img
and recovery.img should be around 6 MB . if
the file is smaller or bigger, the length is
different to my device or there was a failure
while reading back your firmware. So make
sure, that at least recovery or boot.img has
the right size!!
16. Back to droid tools. reconnect your device
to USB , debugging should be enabled, too.
switch to "root, backup, recovery " tab in MTK
Droid Tools.
select "to choose the boot.img " and press on
"Recovery and boot". select your backup
boot.img and recovery,img. MTK droid tools
will patch boot.img, so you obtain permanent
shellroot.
(optional) a window will pop-up and ask you,
if you want to install CWM-r. i cannot tell you
if that will work, but you can try it, since you
backed up your recovery before. )
(optional) a window will pop-up and ask you
for the name of your device(you connected it
before starting droidtools, so this should not
ask you for the name). you can just press
enter or you can enter a name for your device.
17. Droid Tools should have modified the
boot.img. "--a task is complete-- " text should
show up in the right of droidtools.
18. Back to Flashtool
You'll need to load the Scatter (like in Step cool
select boot.img and recovery.img. make sure
you select the modified files. (.../Droidtools/
recovery/boot.img and recovery.img)
only boot and recovery should be selected!!
19.disconnect, shout down and remove the
battery of your device. press on "Download" , a
window will show up that you have not
selected all images. you can press on "OK".
20. insert the battery and connect your device
to USB. Flash process should start and if it
worked, green ring will appear.
21. Back to DroidTools. device needs to be
connected and debugging enabled. switch to
"root, backup, recovery" again and press on
" SuperUser". this will push superuser, SU
binary and busybox to your device.
22. Your Device is rooted now. you can make
a Full backup with Droid Tools now.
thx to n2k1 and tommy0815 for the needed
files and the original tutorial!!
if i helped you, don't forget to press on
"thanks"
