  • Instructions for installing a kosher ROM on TCL Flip2/Classic T408DL

Ahh.. smart of you to check.

Basically, it's a python script compiled with PyInstaller, a safe, open-source tool to compile Python code into a single executable that can be used without python. Due to PyInstallers's popularity, there have been cases when people used it to pack viruses, and therefore any executable that contains the PyInstaller bootloaders get flagged.

This code was taken from mtk bootseq, and enhanced by [Login to see the link] [Login to see the link] [Login to see the link], and I.

What you can do if you want to be careful, is install python and run the code yourself. The source code is inside Lionscribe's zip. Just install python, get pip, and pip install pyserial, then python autobooter.py.

    darth thanks for everything! any plans to update apps option 2?

    joe1234 I just tried this on another phone that I needed to update the rom and I'm having the same issue.

    lgexalter1 after pasting fastboot reboot fastboot it says waiting for device and then I cant paste anything else. when I open a 2nd terminal and paste fastboot flash super super.bin it says waiting for device and nothing happens.

      joe1234 You need to make sure you have a good usb cable. You can also unplug your phone, and plug it back in, then run the command. If its easier, you can run fastboot flash super super.bin without booting into the other fastboot, but it will take up to 45 minutes to flash.

        i have been trying to install the kosher rom. Im getting stuck at #2 part 4 "Press 'volume +' key to unlock the bootloader." After i do step 3 "Press 'volume +' key to unlock the bootloader" it says waiting for device, i press volume up on the phone and nothing happens. any ideas? i have tried several cords that work for connecting the phone to the computer for transfering files.

        any updates also on the other roms? thanks
