Known Bugs Of CM 10 on Walton Primo / Karbonn A5, A7 / Symphony W25
Personally when I upgraded my Walton Primo the only unbearable problem I fetched is "All the lights of the KeyPad never turns off". So for this circumstance battery consumes a little bit faster. And the bad news is I didn't got any solution for this.Of course as none of the Jelly Bean ROMs of Walton Primo, Karbonn A5, A7 and Symphony W25 has support for video camera. But Still you can capture images. I was never been able to Record a video with my Jelly Bean upgraded phone.
And the another problem that bothered me is "The built-in Portable Hotspot doesn't work" while there is no problem when you get connected with other Hotspots. But if you use some sort of good WiFi tether 3rd party software then it'll work.
Sometimes the system apps loses their user data. Let's say if you change the bluetooth's name then it will work. But if you turn the bluetooth off and turn it on again or you restart your phone then you'll see the changed bluetooth name reverted back to default.
Of course I am not responsible for your fault. If your phone got bricked following this article then it's your responsibility. Who told you to follow this article if you don't know what you're doing? But don't you worry. If it gets bricked then Just leave a comment below with your phone model. I will try to give you the link of a another fresh ROM ( Which can revive your bricked Android phone ).
I'm using walton primo ics 4.0.4.
ReplyDeleteIf I install cm and then want to go back to ics stock , what to do then?
Yes, of course. You can revert back to stock ICS.
DeleteAll you need to do is backup your stock ICS rom via recovery. Then follow this article to upgrade to Cyanogen MOD 10.
Then when you want to use Walton Primo's stock ICS again then simply restore the rom the backed up before.
I can't install CWM in my Walton Primo(ICS). I tried many ways(cwm auto installer, mobile uncle, mtk droid tools, sp flash) . Can u please tell me detailed process. Or, Please, Write a post on it ASAP
DeleteIs it possible to install cm 10 using stock recovery? I can flash AP. My phone is rooted. And what I fogot to say is, when I install cwm and boot to recovery there is a red screen. No recovery option appeared.
DeleteNo it's not possible to install CM 10 using stock recovery. And no recovery option appeared means you're using a inappropriate version of recovery.
DeleteYou can Install custom CWM recovery on Walton Primo using Mobile Uncle Tools.
DeleteDownload and extract Walton Primo's Custom Recovery and put recovery.img in the root of the SD card. And flash it using Mobile Uncle tools.

Hello bro, I have a walton Primo updated to 4.0.4 and another walton primo with 2.3.6. So can I update my Gingerbread version to Ice cream Sandwich by backuping up 4.0.4 by CWM from latest primo set and restore it to 2.3.6 Version Primo set. Can I do so? If yes,reply soon please :)
ReplyDeleteNo. Absolutely not. Don't do that. If you do your device will be bricked down.
DeleteFirst you'll need to upgrade 2.3.6 phone's baseband. Then you can restore the backup.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteIs it risk to update android from ginger bred to jell bean?
No. There is no risk. But if you do something wrong then you'll device will be temporally bricked. And Of course it can be unbricked again.
DeleteCan I use it on Symphony W68?
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely no. There is no Cyanogen MOD for MTK devices like Symphony W68
DeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteMy phone is symphony w25. I've upgraded the set from ICS to the Jellybean ROM that you've supplied. Now everything on my phone is in Chinese. How can I get English back?
You need to recognize the Language & input from settings by icons.
DeleteThen you'll need to tap on first option. then change the language to English.
And it was your fault. You miss configured the ROM while booting first time.
Thank You...Somehow I made the mistake.

ReplyDeleteNo. You'll not be able to use any sort of CyanogenMOD in any MediaTek device like Primo H2

ReplyDeleteBase band Upgrade Tutorial
DeleteThere are some bug in this rom.
ReplyDeletePlease fix those.
This ROM always keep hard button lights on. And some other bugs.
I know the bug about the hard button LED problem. And I mentioned that in the article before.
DeleteI don't own this phone anymore so I am unable to fix that. Also I am not the developer of this ROM.
Symphony W71 is a MediaTek device so no cyanogenMOD for your device is possible.
