EDIT: Looks like the rom IS working with latest Xposed BUT bootloped when installing Gravitybox
My phone is 01002 and it also had boot loops with XPosed 2.4* but runs fine with XPosed 2.3.1. Latest GravityBox works fine with XPosed 2.3.1.

Did you tried XPosed 2.3.1 to get GravityBox running?

I dont need GB or XP at all, but was testing it for other users. So maybe someone else with this rom can check it with the other/older version of XP?

Hard Bricked

Thanks for the feedback and sorry to hear that. I'm waiting for my device to be cleared from the customs, so i can run a proper beta testing.
is it possible to unbrick my 6040D using either Alcatel OT Mobile Upgrade S or SP Flash Tools. My problem is very serious that no battery icon show when i charge my phone (of course i neither can ever turn on at all nor enter recovery) just only white LED indicator lights up. very upset bout it :(
edit: it seen that i can unbrick using Alcatel Mobile Upgrade S. thanks god

Rom not showing in SD Card

Hi there,

I'm looking for some help. I've gotten to the point where I'm reading to flash with the original rom on my 6040a, the file which I've put in the SD card. When in recovery mode using mobileuncle, the zip file is not showing up. Any advice or comments on what I might be doing wrong? I've put the official 1006 file in the root directory, and also tried putting it in one of the subfolders still didn't show.

Thanks~

Just put the ROM on the internal SD card.

Cheers.

I don't understand how that would work seeing the proper steps is to first wipe data/factory reset, that would erase all files on the phone.
Factory reset doesn't do anything to data on the SD card. It just wipes all apps and personal settings and returns to factory defaults.

Uhmm.. excuse me for asking, but what do you mean by "the official 1006 file"?

Hey guys i think i am in serious trouble

I have a one touch 6040a, rooted and running MIUI v5, but I was just giving me trouble so i decided to try to go back into recovery and flash another rom,

but stupid me, pressed the "boot into recovery" because somehow it wouldnt recognize my recovery file in the sd card

now my device wont turn on, absolutely no response

the white light turns on when plugged into usb, windows was trying to recognize the phone but it wasnt successful because it just kept playing the same sound


am i screwed, but is there a way to somehow fixed this

PLEASE

Install these drivers https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B1ozaLEM6hACX3NPWTRKcE5kRjQ/edit

And use SP Flash Tool to flash whatever u need or use Mobile Upgrade S to re-install stock rom

Thanks, you were a big help !!

I didnt fix it yet but made improvment

I successfully flash the official rom using easy flash tool

BUT

It is now stucked on "TCL" boot screen, and I still cannot boot into recovery, whenever i hold down power on + vol up, it just shows IDOL X over and over again, kinda like power on and off
