Actually, option 1 using both volume keys and bower key works on NM card as wel. No need to enter the service menu.

USB otg mode is workking.
It's so simple !!

Thanks OP.

 

[NJ72]

Option 1 and 2 work with either NM or USB-OTG drive

 

[fourpsk]

It did not work well with my device.
I tried in OTG mode.

The environment is 9.1.0.124 (C431E4R2P2).

When you start eRecovery, it becomes Software installed failed. (Incompatibility with current version)
What's wrong

 

[NJ72]

Have you downloaded all the files and placed the three update files in to a folder called 'dload'?

Also, if having issues try the service menu method.

 

[takato23]

[NJ72]

If it will not allow you to download due to too many people accessing the file, then add it to your drive. once there, right click and select "Create copy" you can then download the copy

Unable to locate L09 firmware v 153. Don't think it's available yet.

 

[JazonX]

153 firmware for C185 is available now in Halabtech. Just flashed it.

Hi All
I'm on 3 UK and when I inserted my sim it downloaded 3UK splash screens and apps etc. Can I flash this over my current 3 branded firmware using the USB-OTG method and will it still have all the 3UK customisation afterwards or will it debrand, if it will debrand it is there any way I can stop this happening again. Sorry for all the questions
Thanks in advance

You asked at just the right time, my device was a branded ThreeUK device... I just flashed it 30 mins ago on my device. Completely debranded it, however when you setup the phone it will give you an option to "Update" to a new custom version which is the carrier modified firmware. Presume this will rebrand it so i simply skipped it, note however it shows as update available in settings still if you want to install it in future manually. That being said... I wonder if it's possible to extract and see what this "Update" contains since it's 176MB which is a lot. Whether any optimisations ect are worth it for the branding.

 

[csw43]

That's great, thank you for the info! It really is a crap idea to customise a device based on operator sim card.
I will have a go at flashing this now, I've already downloaded the files

Thanks again
