since you are using phantom king, use the torchlight app, if the led works means it is not a hardware problem.

Hi Sifu sekalian!

I just got my MI300 yesterday. This is my first andriod phone. Was using Symbian before this and decided to abandon symbian.
I realized a few things after using the phone for a day;

1. I can't just use any MP3 as my ringtone.
you can install an apps called Ring Extended
2. I can't install apps on the SD Card
you need froyo for this .. and that mean u need to flash
I also need GPS softwares like PAPAGO. The supplied Mapking is all but question marks to me.
you can use papago, please refer to previous thread or use the search function.

So, I guess, I need to ROOT/FLASH it right?

Being an Andriod user for 1 day, I really need lots of advice from all the Sifu here.

1. What is the best way to flash it? (err.. meaning, which version should I flash to? , there's this Phantomking thingy.. which I don't know much about).
please refer to first page of this thread
2. Do I need to upgrade it to 2.2? (in order for me to do those things I wanted to do)
refer first page

6. My understanding is, Rooting = Gain Superuser Access, Flashing = Upgrade the firmware/os. Am I right?. If so, can you Root without Flashing?
yes u can root without flashing u can even remove root once u done using please search for apps call " universal androot"

Thanks bros!

Yes benny, I have been fiddling with it the whole day yesterday and find out what are the limitations hahaha. Which is why I decided to root.

Mykazza, what do you mean by installing things from Market place via computer?

I don't see any instructions about Z4root in Post 1, it only says download it wor.

i want to ask about rom manager backup ..

after backup what file it would be?

nb0?
or just a folder with name give by user ( usually date of backup)

and how to restore it?

just go rom manager and restore ? for my case it restart to restore mode then i dont know wad to choose after that.

It is better to install rom manager before you flash any new rom. With rom manager you installed you can than backup your rom first. Your rom will be saved in the sd card under clockworkmod/backup  folder. If you view the file contents, you will see several img files and a md5 file

You can still install rom manager after you have flash Phantom KIng rom

Actually I don't really understand your issue as you are writing in broken english

So basically your scenario is this :

First time - you install rom manager and has successfully make a backup - you have described so

Than you flash a new rom

However when you launch rom manager - you are unable to see rom manager recovery menu. What you have is actually the STOCK recovery menu which does NOT have the backup/restore choices - right ?

There is absolutley no problem to install rom manager after you have flash a new rom,. Launch it and tap first time - flash clockwork recovery . This will NEVER do anu harm to your phone.

Did you try to access recovery thro the 3 buttons. Switch off phone. Simultaneously press camera-volup-power buttons . If you still unable to see rom manager recovery , means your rom manager installation is corrupted. Uninstall it , reset and reinstall , launch, flash recovery

. However the version should be 2.5.1.8 if you have successfully latest flash recovery from rom manager

Something's not right somewhere. I've rooted it. Then, I connect my phone to my PC. Then I run the SUT. I clicked next, then the phone booted in ClockwordMod Recovery console and prompt for my action>
- reboot system now
- apply sdcard : update.zip
- wipe data/ factory reset
- wipe cache partition
- install zip from SDcard
- backup and restore
- mount and storage
- advance

then the SUT gave me this;
Update Process fails with below error!
Error Code : 0x4000
Error : Download Fail
Error = Device not configure (0x4000)
