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

VeeKay Don't follow that guide, its outdated. Try following Dartths guide on the top post here from start to finish.

also, are you on the latest software update?

VeeKay Yes try starting over again using the instructions here. It's actually good that you aren't on the newest update, which caused issues for some people.

Biden2020prez what issues are you referring to?

Jumptoheaven Well, not exactly sure. [Login to see the link] mentioned to me in private that he bricked some phones when flashing certain partitions from a previous update to a phone with the newest update. Also, someone emailed me about bricking two phones when installing a kosher rom, and I suspected that maybe it was because he was on the newest update, but he never replied back to my email (so far)....

So I guess I am just not sure whether or not it's safe to flash the old super with new update.

(on a side note, the new update relocks the bootloader, which is a little strange).

darth I tried that several times, also tried to start over but the same message pops up instead of asking permission to unlock bootloader.

VeeKay The phone is off and you're plugging it in when it's saying that?

FliphoneBochur I tried when was saying this, then took put the battery it should be off, still didn't help once I plug in it gets power and pops up this mesage.

VeeKay Are you sure you're plugging the phone in while autobooter is running (dots should be poping up)? I had the same error before.

Biden2020prez FliphoneBochur When I try to open the autobooter it closes right away, I initially followed someone's advice to plug the phone in first, only then it worked.

VeeKay plug in the phone, wait for TCL screen to show, then unplug the phone, run autobooter and plug in your POWERED OFF phone. If it closes right away, then open a command propmpt, in that folder and run autobooter and tell us what it says.

Biden2020prez Finally was able to get the autobooter but instead of asking permission the same previous message appears;
Secure Boot Failure!
dm-verify corruption

Your device is corrupt.
It can't be trusted and may not work properly.
Press power button to continue.
or device will power off in 5 s

darth Correct

Hi,
Thank you for all the hard work. I Updated from a Canadian Phone 4058E and was able to install Talk&Text-With Apps Op 2. However, I lost the ability to Import/Export Contact, and also I used to have the option to turn on VoLTE (This is needed for canadians traveling to the US) and this menu option is not there anymore

How can I remove/disable the cursor?

C:\Users\Home\Downloads\platform-tools_r34.0.1-windows\platform-tools>fastboot flash super super.img
Sending sparse 'super' 1/13 (130960 KB) OKAY [ 12.817s]
Writing 'super' FAILED (remote: 'CHUNK_TYPE_FILL flash write failure')
fastboot: error: Command failed

What do I do phone will not turn on either

Yehudi Did you do anything before these steps? is this a 16GB TCL?
