Fix for fastboot problem with latest builds

I never tried MoKee, but the issue with the stuck fastboot mode seems to be shared with LineageOS, which I use. The last two nightlies of LineageOS have had issues with the kernel and should not be installed directly as you will be stuck on fastboot mode.

However, at least on LineageOS, the broken builds can be installed if you manually take care of the kernel (BOOT) and work properly with the latest working BOOT (from build 20171009 on LOS).

I wrote the following guides to fix this issue on LineageOS, they should work on MoKee as well. You're expected you to have a working fastboot/adb stack on your computer and to be comfortable with copying files and keeping track of paths. There are many guides around to help you with fastboot.

If you want to update past the broken build (20171009 on LineageOS, please someone add the last working MoKee build below) from a running MoKee follow these steps:
1) Download the current nightly on the phone (know where your files are!)
2) Reboot into TWRP
3) Backup the BOOT partition (the rest is not required, but it's always a good idea to have a full backup anyway)
4) Install the current nighly build, wipe cache/dalvik
5) [Optional] Install gapps, su, xposed, modem, etc.
6) DO NOT REBOOT TO SYSTEM YET! Restore the BOOT partition from the backup you just created
7) Now reboot to System, it should work

If you updated automatically (or manually without taking care of BOOT) and got stuck into fastboot, do this:
1) Download the TWRP linked in the first post, remember the path to this downloaded file on your PC
2) Download both the last known working and latest builds of MoKee
3A) Copy the builds you downloaded to a microSD card (must not be formated as internal) and install it into the phone
3B) Copy the builds you downloaded to an usb thumbdrive if you have a microusb-to-usb cable
4) Connect the phone (turned on and on fastboot mode) to a the with a running fastboot/adb stack
5) Run this command (from CMD with administrative rights on Windows, Shell on Linux or Mac): fastboot boot [path to the downloaded TWRP]. After a few seconds TWRP should start on the device.
6) [Only if you DON'T have a backup of BOOT] Install the last working build either from the microSD card or (after connecting the microusb-usb adapter and thumbdrive to the phone) USB drive, then wipe Cache/Dalvik
7) [Only if you DON'T have a backup of BOOT] Backup at least the BOOT partition
8) Install the latest build you downloaded
9) [Optional] Install gapps, su, xposed, modem, etc.
10) DO NOT REBOOT TO SYSTEM YET! Restore the BOOT partition from your backup
11) Now reboot to System, it should work

Both methods were tested and confirmed working by myself on a G620S running LineageOS 14.1, but since the devices and the procedures to install both ROMs are the same this will probably help you.

Problem 1:
I can not export contacts to a SIM card.

Shows me first:
"Unable to load SIM Contacts"
Then:
"export finished"
===============================
Problem 2:
When I use Facebook app battery drops very quickly.
For 10 minutes, the battery decreases by 5 percent.
It is not normal. With other roms I did not have such a problem with the battery. And not just with facebook app. The battery is very good, but when I use applications that use the Internet battery is down very fast.
===============================
Can you add Ambient Display support for g620s-l01 ?

I'm using the G620s-L01.
(I use translator)

On G620s also i have a problem with the Hotspot.
I have to turn it on and off several times to fix it.
Can you describe the Problem ? Do you have Problems when the hotspot Signal is too weak ?

I use Lineage 14.1 and I have the same Problem with SIM contacts as you describe. Second: if I use apps like Facebook I have no Problems with battery loss. Is this battery drainage Problem in WiFi or if you use mobile Connection ?

I'll try out with LineageOS.
I have a problem with both. I'm not sure if the problem is from the internet. With MIUI ROM my battery falls very slowly. I have much more battery.

I have never used mobile tethering, sorry.

Facebook Battery Usage:
CPU Total: 10m 50s
CPU Foreground: 10m 29s
Mobile Packets Received: 8170
Mobile Packets Sent: 5882
Mobile Radio Active: 10m 46s
Computed Power Use: 67 mAh

These are 4% battery usage for 10 minutes. I use Huawei Ascend G620s-L01.
I tried different baseband "g7-l01_modem.zip" and "4xqwt_lp_modem.zip" but there is no difference.
Any suggestions ?

I was using the latest "release" of this custom ROM & today my phone automatically goes blank. I tried restarting it by holding the power button for 10 seconds but it is showing only boot logo & then completely blank. It is not switched off because only force restart is working. I tried to go to recovery but it is also blank. Is my phone got bricked? If not, Please help.. @dianlujitao
Device - Che1-L04
