Yes, i will ask Mr. adb

My phone is the XP-Version. Maybe that could be the reason.

Could a CM12.1 user check if polish language is available in languages menu?
Is CM12.1 best rom for this phone?
How to install it (root, instal custom recovery and install custom rom? are there any guides for that?)

Yes, "Polski" language is present
And Yes, CM12.1 is for me the best ROM.

Install TWRP :

1. Download TWRP : TWRP
2. With flashtool load MT6735M_Android_Scatter-TWRP
3. Select download and connect smartphone to pc (smartphone must be powered off)… in few seconds will start the process and the new TWRP will be flashed.

PS : To restore original stock recovery, you need load ad point 1 the file MT6735M_Android_Scatter.txt

Install ROM :

1. Download the rom : CM 12.1
2. Copy the rom (zip file) to the phone
3. Flash it with TWRP

Install ROOT :

1. Download SuperSU : SuperSU
2. Copy it to the phone
3. Flash it with TWRP

If it's not clear, let me know.

The doogee x5 pro has the same specs as the homtom ht7 pro (at least on paper), and it has android 6.0 as an official update (so much for being incompatible as stated by homtom).
Some adventurous folks (or somebody with more experience at android hacking than me and who knows how to recover from mistakes) willing to try if the rom works?
http://www.doogee.cc/download.php?ProId=53

I'm also interested in this. Did anyone try it?

Well, I didn't try (I'm not that adventurous) but I'm quite sure the kernel will not be compatible (due to different support hardware, i.e. lcd, touch screen, etc.).
Probably using the stock homtom kernel transplanted in the doogee's rom would work, but what's the point of that?

Good morning,
I ask for help I killed my cell phone. I accidentally selected "Firmware Upgrade" instead of "Download Only" and it gave me an error. Now the phone will not turn on anymore. It is detected for the Flash and I tried to reinstall the rom but it gives me this error:

BROM ERROR S_FT_ENABLE_DRAM_FAIL (0xFC0)
[EMI] Enabled DRAM Failed!
[HINT]:
Please check your load matches to your target which is to be downloaded.


Thanks for your help

Hi there, I've been following this thread closely and have a similar situation with woingenau. Can anyone help; I am ultimately trying to get TWRP on my device to flash CM12.1

flashing any version of TWRP (3.0.2 from needrom, or the betas on various posts here) result in the phone vibrating and briefly showing the HOMTOM logo, then rebooting immediately to system. I'm able to flash the stock recovery and go into it fine, however. This is regardless if I use SP flash tool on Windows10, or Rashr on the device

Furthermore, when I flash any stock ROM, it seems to work, except for providing only a black display. It boots and sounds like I can unlock the screen, but can't see what I'm doing. Only reflashing XP 1.0.4 brings me a usable system. I've tried 1.01, 1.0.2, 1.1.3, 1.1.4, 1.1.7, 1.2.3... I've also tried using these zips locally through OTA (unrooted). but after the phone installs everything, it boots up with the same old 1.0.4

Finally, if it matters, Kingroot is completely successful and my device can be rooted on rom 1.0.4, but it does not help TWRP installation.

Thank you for your time. New poster, so any advice appreciated!

Oh and the IMEI is gone with no backup (whoops), so no service repaired using AT commands

@Enigmatic Fart this won't help you, but I had a similar result when I flashed the XP firmware in my non XP phone, so it (probably) means they have a different driver for the lcd, and if twrp is based on a non xp kernel it won't work in an xp phone. I don't know if and where there is a twrp for the xp version, sorry.

That helps a lot actually! Still new to all this and kinda just experimenting, so what you said makes it very clear, thank you! Guess I gotta be happy with what I can afford for now, keep lurking, and invest in something more mainstream in the future

Learned a lot from this phone though!

Hello
but I have not solved the problem and I can not use a cell phone, can you help?

 

[Jascha2016]

Hello to all
unfortunately I am also in the same situation, I'm looking for the original rom the HomTom HT7 pro but I can not even find it on the official site, perhaps by installing the official rom will solve the problem.

Custom Firmware

Do you know if anyone has made a custom ROM for this model? Because the original firmware kind of sucks.
Thanks!

I followed the whole thread with google translate but I couldn't find the sources for the unofficial cm12.1.
It says it's derived from the ark benefit cm12.1 (a thread that I didn't follow so I don't know if the sources are there).
Do you know a link to the sources, github, etc.?
Or is it just a "cooked" rom?

Yes, it's a modified rom from ARK. But no problem for me with it.

Are you serious ?
No support No update ... Best phone

Well, the problem is that without sources you can't keep it up to date by yourself (especially if it uses the stock kernel).

He's probably trying to dump it :laugh:
