i used tbte's instructions and many others but no matter what i do i cannot boot into recovery. not sure how to install ultrajack and dont know the commands to enter in the emulator. would you be able to help me?
I can try to help. I think I still have the Ultrajack files and the script to install it, but I strongly recommend using ClockworkMod if you want to use your M835 for making phone calls. Ultrajack is useful for flashing foreign ROMs like Dronix, ICS based and CyanogenMod MIUI ROMs for the Ideos U8150, if you just want to play around with them. They will not work for for mobile network data/phone but can be used as a portable media device
Have your M835 fully charged, make sure you have a decent USB cable and the appropriate drivers installed, PM me when you're ready.
