CM sapphire using V1 firmware to v2 unit TUT:
UPDATED Working on v2 also(january 6, 2015)
Note: wifi, FM radio and Bluetooth is not working after finish flashing
theyre testing for v2 at private group sa facebook nabasa ko lang
and I am still looking for V2
here we go:
Requirements:
1. Cherry mobile Sapphire v2 unit
2. Good Micro USB to USB cable
3. Spreadtrum driver download here you must have 4shared ac
4. Flash tool (Research Download) I am using this version download here
5. ROM (.pac file for spreadtrum device)
For V1 unit
For V2 unit
6. Windows PC/Laptop
7. Common sense.
Note: for windows 7 64bit and windows 8 up OS, disable Driver signature first (no need for 32bit windows XP)
I am using 64bit windows 7 pro and this is what i have done
restart PC/laptop press F8 continuously until you get the startup menu.
on startup menu you can see safe mode etc..
select Disable drivers signature enforcement (second to the last i think..)
and then it will boot up to windows OS now..
now you may also Disable drivers signature enforcement using cmd just to make sure..
run cmd as administrator
key in
bcdedit.exe /set NoIntergrityChecks On press enter
done
Step 1:
unzip and install corresponding driver what you have downloaded earlier 64x for 64bit OS so on..
PC might pop up msgs regarding the driver.. just allow the installation.
wait until finish
Step 2:
to check if successfully installed the driver:
open device manager (winkey+r or just simply run key in "devmgmt.msc" with out the quote)
click "Universal Bus Controllers"(where you can see installed USB matter hardwares.
