hi hellomnp

not uninstall.delete from system files with the help of es file explorer or root explorer.

 

[hmvs]

It's better to use root uninstaller, or titanium backup to uninstall

 

[nitricjs]

My problem is resolved.I found the service which doesn't send me to Singapure. The master created individual script and put new soft. I asked to use the version of Solutor. The master said it is interesting and attractive very much.

hi javerin, how did you get root access?

 

[javerin]

I asked master to root. He returned me the phone with root.

 

[javerin]

May anybody to tell me how to change the boot logo (no boot animation)?

I have just used The Solutor's method to do the same thing and had replaced the rf.zte file. Obviously I have done something wrong - the baseband does appear to be updated but I can not reboot the phone in recovery mode to reload my backed up data.

The update program was all in Chinese text and I suppose I must have clicked an incorrect button. The phone is working with a Chinese ROM (software version GSJ9?). Using the filer utility, I can see that my saved apps and backup files are on the SD card. It seems like my phone is now unrooted - is that possible? Is there any other method to get to recovery mode apart from starting the phone with the Volume Up button depressed, as that does not work?

Thanks in advance.

I looked Russian forum. People wrote me: You need to put recovery through fastboot. Before it You need put the drivers from Motorola, there are links on this forum. Then You need to put catty62 rom and recover IMEI (IT HAS THIS OPPORTUNITY). After that You may to put any rom You choosed.
May be anybody may give the link to Motorola drivers.

Besides, I can't describe, how to work with fastboot.

Yes, it is possible. Try to get root. However, You may have adb conflict? If no, You will need to use the higher version of update or use fastboot.

Thank you for your suggestions. Unfortunately I am a 66 year old geezer with his first android phone. If you could dumb it down a bit on adb conflict, fastboot etc., I would appreciate it as I am still not sure how to proceed from my present position.

the superser may be updated bu the superuser fixer (on market) and then integrate update into rom.

Sorry, i got it by other way, i found a master in china phones and asked him to restore recovery and root for me. I copied all solutor's and catty's files (roms, recovery) for him so work go quickly.My phone was repaid during one day.

Yes this is exactly what happen, handcent SMS works for me, altough the sender name is truncated on the last character on SIM 1, no problem on SIM2


SMS on SIM1 - I found that in MobileVoip (A VoIP application) in Menu History/messages appeared the previously lost SMS (my case message form Facebook with sender FACEBOO)

I installed PDANET on my PC when phone is connected by USB cable.
During installing program seaches android devices.
I forgot a link, I found it method on web.There were some others issues.

Besides, are You tried other rom? My phone is from etotalk. When I write them, they offered me to use 1.6b rom.

 

[mrdolar]

Is possible add my language translation to zte u960. I have here android 2.3.5 etotalk 1.6c. There is offered my language but translation it half English half Chinese and 10% my language. please help me how to customize own ROM.

 

[KToM73]

ICS?
I found the link:
ROMs | U960S3
According this page, ICS4 ROM is available for this phone.
Can be true?

The phone in that picture seems not to be the u960: not the distinctive speaker on top, logo left instead of right.
