Root Roms For The Fierce 2

I have the 7040T phone. What file images do you need? I don't have any cloud storage account to upload to. I can PM you with file attachments ( don't know what is the forum's file size limit for attachment) or you can PM me your non-personal email and I'll email you the stock backup zip file. The whole stock backup zip file size is about 1.4 GB.

What phone do you have?

7040N or 7040T

I could really use some files from your phone to finish the rom.

@ watsupdoc
You just make a gmail account and you can upload it to google drive.
Then you just post the link.

If you got the backup zip from here I am the one who posted it.
If not ya i would like to take a look at it.

What i need most right now is the /data folder.
I might have this rom finishe if you get me that

But if you could run these commands in adb it will get what i need.
run 1 line at a time

adb shell su -c "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p7 of=/storage/sdcard0/boot.img"
adb pull /storage/sdcard0/boot.img
adb shell su -c "rm -f /storage/sdcard0/boot.img"

adb shell su -c "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19 of=/storage/sdcard0/custpack.img"
adb pull /storage/sdcard0/custpack.img
adb shell su -c "rm -f /storage/sdcard0/custpack.img"

adb shell su -c "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p28 of=/storage/sdcard0/system.img"
adb pull /storage/sdcard0/system.img
adb shell su -c "rm -f /storage/sdcard0/system.img"

adb shell su -c "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p30 of=/storage/sdcard0/data.img"
adb pull /storage/sdcard0/data.img
adb shell su -c "rm -f /storage/sdcard0/data.img"
 
ok great.
just zip all 30 files and upload in 1 shot.

I appreciate it. Its gonna help get this rom done.

and you will find all the files in c:\android\sdk\platform-tools

It will use your sd card too so you probably need about 1gb space on it to be safe
 
So here is what is driving me nuts.
We have the same phones here. And the recovery is confirmed to work.
But when i unpack and compare boot images I have seen a few different BOOT-LOADER.

TAKE A LOOK.

I put together the commands to back up the entire phone partition by partition.
It will be real helpful for me to have these files. Then i should be able to fix this rom.

I uploaded a text file. If you put it in the c:\android\sdk\platform-tools folder and rename it from ,txt to .bat Im pretty sure you can double click on it or run it automatically.

COMMAND SEQUENCE
It will copy the files to the sd card 1 at a time.
Copy it to the c:\android\sdk\platform-tools folder
Then delete it from the sd card
and go to the next file.
This way sd card space isnt an issue.
FINISHED BACKUP

After you are all done getting the files. Just zip the platform-tools folder and upload it on google drive. Then post the link or PM me. I appreciate your help. Very Very much
Click to expand...

probably because im exhausted but it will not let me change file type...idk ill after some sleep

There seems to be submodel number to my 7040T, I don't know if this is significant or not. See pic

There is a correlation between some characters in the bootloader and build ID strings.

Allright guys

Thanks so much for getting me the backup for the 7040T.

Because of you I hit a milestone today. Its been the last 16 hours straight but i have good news.

I now have a booting rom for the 7040T.
No functionality issues at all.

This phone was boot looped but had my recovery installed on it.

It came back to life. Root and all.

I will be posting this after i get some sleep.

Everyone be sure to flash my recovery.img

It could save your phone.
 
As soon as someone gets me the backup for 7040N using my backup script posted previously.

I will make the rom for the 7040N.

I know I cant believe this finally worked.
Three months of my life and it was all worth it.

Please get me a backup for 7040N.

And i need the /data files from the onandroid script.

If you need help let me know
 
So here is something very interesting.

The rom that I built is actually from the alcatel one touch pop icon 7040T.
It flashed good on a one touch fierce2 7040T.

Awesome

I guess there is some confusion between these phones.
The cool thing is they are compatible with each other.

So if you want to run this on your fierce 2 it will run. No issues at all.
Fully rooted as well.

Im betting that there will be no problem running this on a 7040N.
They all have the same hardware.
One Touch Pop Icon 7040T
One Touch Fierce 2 7040T
One Touch Fierce 2 7040N

@jason39828
It would be great if you want to load this up.

And the rest that want to help. It would be a good Idea to get me the other backups.
One Touch Fierce 2 7040T
One Touch Fierce 2 7040N

I really want to investigate this further and i need all file to compare.
Who wants to have some fun.
 
Oh I will post the rom tomorrow.
It has to be completed in 2 flashes because of the amount of memory in the phone.

The new rom flashes the boot-loader and associated partitions.
And the boot.img
Also flashes a bare-bones /data {you need it alcatel .lib files for the apps are there}
Flashes /system
flashes /custpack

boots with One Touch Pop Icon boot image

i will be more than happy to try it
 
Ok this has been tested again so now I will post the ROM.
I wanted to be sure that the new package was 100% operational.
Everything is good, this is a stock factory rom rooted with Kingroot.

After you flash it I would recommend to install busybox and switch to SuperSu from kingroot.
There is a thread around here for switching superuser.

Ok there are 3 parts to flashing this rom. 3 Files

#1 is clean.zip
It formats the phone to make room for the sideload. Because we cant update from the sd card and use sideload there has to be enough space on the phone for the file you are flashing to be copied on the phone.

#2 Flash1.zip is the majority of the rom. Again due to file size it has to be this way.

#3 Flash2.zip is the /system part of the rom.

You have to sideload all three files in order.

Here are the steps.

#1 download all 3 files and copy to c:\android\sdk\platform-tools\
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8jitdIyh2Ntb19MSDVoWUtFYVU/view?usp=sharing
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8jitdIyh2NtNVNzajg3a3lZVE0/view?usp=sharing
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8jitdIyh2NtbXBXeTRuMHhkLW8/view?usp=sharing

#2 reboot the phone into recovery.

#3 select apply update from adb

#4 in shell on the computer type
adb sideload clean.zip

#6 select apply update from adb

#7 in shell on the computer type
adb sideload flash1.zip

#6 select apply update from adb

#7 in shell on the computer type
adb sideload flash2.zip

#8 in the recovery select wipe cache

#9 in the recovery select wipe data factory reset

#10 reboot phone and be patient.
It takes a good 5 min maybe even 10 to boot the first time.

#11 ENJOY and look forward to a customized version of this rom soon.

And this can be loaded on 7040N?
 
Yes all 3 phones have the same exact hardware and the rom is not flashing the carrier data.

Give it a go.

Load it up and post some pics if you can.

Thank you for your help.
It is appreciated
 
Ok so i was wrong.
Do not flash that rom on the 7040N.

Works for sure on the 7040T One Touch Pop Icon.

May work for 7040T Fierce 2 but i need someone to test it.
Please let me know if you want to test so we can backup your phone first.

I have the 7040N backups and will be building the rom for the 7040N.

I will do the same for the 7040T Fierce 2 but i need a backup from someone first.
And try the rom that is posted on a 7040T Fierce 2

Thanks
 
I would suggest that only load the posted rom on the 7040T.
We tested it today on the 7040N and it didnt go so well.

I really really need a backup for the 7040T Fierce 2 if someone can do that it would be appreciated and put to good use.

I have a good backup for the 7040N so i will be making a rom for it soon.

Seems now i will be busy developing the method to unbrick without a recovery. I will keep you guys posted.
