Flashing Custom ROM without Power Button - Zuk Z1 General

Hello guys,
My phone's buttons are screwed up! The only physical buttons working are home and volume up. I want to flash a new ROM, back up using Nandroid, etc etc. But im not sure if i can do it.
Is there a way to just send commands using PC?
Please help I'm at a loss.
Also, Can u guys recommend the latest and the best Customer ROM for this phone?
TIA!

If your phone is rooted you can try quick boot app, ROM is your preference, all lots of are available

I actually was able to flash Resurrection remix. I booted to Recovery thanks to Advanced boot and just went from there. hehe
Thanks anyways. :*

[Q] Rooted... now what

Hey everybody. So I rooted by phone following the instructions from theunlockr.com and their "how to root the samsung vibrant/captivate"
and then followed the instructions on their "how to load a custom rom on samsung captivate/vibrant"
Now what exactly do I do? I mean I kind of understand ROMs but if I want to install 2.2 what should I do? Is Cognition a good choice? How exactly would I install that? Also if I install 2.2 would I be able to go back to 2.1 when the official is finally released? I understand enough to mod my phone but not fully enough how to change it back if I mess up. So could I please get some help?
Also:
- What new things can I actually do w/ 2.2?
- Will I have to reinstall all my apps? Contacts?
Thanks in advance!
Download rom manager from market free version
To option flash clockwork recovery
Select captivate
Turn phone off
Vol up and down and power
When at&t comes up let go
Should go into recovery
Select reinstall packages
Brings you back to same screen
Reinstall packages
Should bring you to green recovery
Reboot phone
Power off phone
Remove bat, sim, and external sd
Put bat back in
Usb plugged into computer
Vol up and down hold plug usb in
Should have an orange android with a shovel, you are in download mode
Pull bat, put everything back in boot phone
If you can not do every thing listed I would hold flashing anything
Make sure you have usb drivers for phone installed and pc can see your phone
Don't forget to use Titanium Backup first so you can recover your installed apps. I use ODIN JF6 With 3 Button Fix to get back to stock.
There are a lot of good ROM's out there. I've been really happy with di11igaf's 3.0.2, but it's best to see what the people are saying in each thread and make an educated choice.

[SOLVED] Help!!! BootLoop and no CWM

Hi Guys
I really hope someone can help me!
I've searched the forums and can't find anyone else with my problem.
I flashed ICS stunner and that was working fine.
Then I tried LiquidSmooth and eventually got that working fine.
Then I tried to go back to ICS Stunner and this is where my problems start.
I had some failed flashes with CWM and I think I've messed up the kernel.
I tried to sort this out by flashing back to pre-rooted GB rom so I could reinstall CF Kernel.
The flash in Odin appears to complete successfully, but afterwards phone just goes into bootloop at Samsung boot animation.
As I flashed back to pre-rooted stock rom I don't have recovery.
As far as I can find, to install a kernel I will need to either boot into android (which I can't due to bootloop) or install through CWM (which I can't as no longer have CWM)
Can anyone help?
Try factory reset from stock recovery.

Turn off your phone, press and hold the three following buttons together for more than 10 seconds: Volume up button + Home button + Power button
That is if you are having bootloops after flashing Gingerbread using PC Odin coming from ICS

You do not have the same issue because here nobody spoke of a missing home button.
So: What do you mean? Your home button is broken? Or you do have a device without home button?
After this is clear we can start to analyze your problem.

[Q] Freezing and black screen issues!

Hi,
I am using Galaxy Note N7000 for the past 1 year. (OFFICIAL ROM)
I am facing a strange issue since the day I bought this phone... The screen goes black suddenly (this could happen even if the phone is not touched for 3 to 4 hrs. Don't know why this happens) and freezes. If i press any button , the screen will not wake up. During this time, if someone calls me then I will not get any ring, but the other party who calls me gets the ring tone that my phone is ringing. The only way to bring up my phone is , i need to press the power button still the phone reboots.
I tried factory reset twice (both gui mode and the other with Volume UP+HOME+power button)
I tried Wipe cache memory many times.
Pls let me know .. how to get rid of this issue. Should I need to use some other rom. If so pls advice.
I am ready to do any thing to get this phone to work properly.
Regards,
Dennis
It could be a motherboard issue.
Ahh this is simple, this is when your phone just goes to sleep! This can be configured, by changing your kernel! if you're on stock this happens a lot! so Change your kernel it should help a lot! I prefer speedmod or C.O.H ! They may solve this issue! it's not a board issue, don't be worried! and try Good ROMS! not the stock!
Hit Thanks!
thanks

Can you pls let me know exact ROM, which I can use it for better performance. If possible help me with tutorial link too... As I am amateur with this flashing things.. I have seen some videos , but still don't have any hands-on experience.
THis is very simple brother! First you need to have a SD Card, and download Philz kernel and install via Recovery(Volume UP+ Home+ Power) and you need to be on jellybean then it is helpful! or to be on a safer side, download odin and flash the philz or speedmod odin files! they will get you CWM Recovery and Root!
But first I recommend using a kernel if that doesn't help! then Flash a ROM!
I gone through many links... and not able to clearly find what is the philz kernal.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1901191
Where to download the kernal.. ??
Should I need to take backup and factory reset the phone before doing this activity. Later can I use Kies to restore the backup??

Same link 1st post and read on, once you flash the .zip file you will have root and you can use titanium backup to backup apps and you can also take nandroid backuo

I need help asap

okay i was puttiing a new rom on my phone and long story short i deleted everything and now i get stuck at the htc boot screen and CAN NOT get any further past that, im not sure what or if anything i can do to fix this, some one please help, email me will be quicker, [email protected]
im used to working with samsung phones not htc and im stuck in quicksand with this one.
Did you make a backup in recovery? I tried to flash a ROM once and it got stuck on the HTC screen but I somehow managed to hold the power button for a while and reboot back into recovery to restore to my previous ROM.
Question about situation
Normally in this situation you could hold Vol Down+Power until the unit shuts off then let go of Power and continue holding volume down. This should drop you back off in HBoot/Fastboot from here you could get back to the recovery screen and most recoveries now allow for ADB access to repush or flash another install.
If you are able to get into Recovery what are you currently running?

there is absolutely no rom on it now, so theres nothing on the phone. i think my only hope would be trying to run something of an sd card or hope that i can run some program on a computer.
twrp isn't installed as well. everything got erased, i think what i have to do is send the files over through terminal if i can get it connected via usb, idk. im not sure, i feel like I've really done myself in on this one, some one save my skin please

i don't want to sound like a noobie but how would i get that to flash i can't pull up any screens besides the htc white screen
Have you tried pressing power while holding the vol up button then when the screen goes black pressing and holding the volume down button to get into the bootloader? If you can get into the bootload (and I suspect you probably can if the phone still gets to the white HTC screen) you can flash a recovery and then flash a rom.
nothing is wrong with your phone nor do you need an sd...if u know how to use adb...push the rom back to the phone in recovery..simple as that..sd card works too but youll be fine which ever way...u have no problem

[Q] Help regarding TWRP

I know I will probably son't like a complete idiot here. But, I have used Odin3 to root my phone and it worked perfectly. I tried Odin3 to install TWRP and it seems as if everything goes smooth. When I try and access TWRP by holding down the Volume Down, Power, and Home buttons I always end up at the original recovery screen where I push volume up and enter download mode.
I know it's something stupid that I'm doing wrong, but if you could please point me in the right direction I would really really appreciate it.
Thanks guys!

With TWRP installed, from power off, you volume-UP, Home, and Power to enter recovery, correct?? Unless I am mistaken?? Please tell me if so...
I prefer to flash with Odin myself (vs. flashing w/apps), but with TWRP installed, I believe you can use TWRP Mgr from Play Store to Boot to Recovery mode also as well as Flash ROMs and the like... Never tried the app, or any recovery app, just know of some that prefer using apps to do everything from device... If my help does not assist, you can always search out tutorial videos on the matter, or ask around the forum further... Just going by what I have either done or known to have been done so far... Hope it helps...

Guys I've tried with Odin and I get nothing. Odin passes install but It still goes in to stock recovery.
Can this be flashed with stock recovery if I change it to update.zip?

You are odin flashing the WRONG version of TWRP.
Here is the correct version for the Note 4 N910T v2.8.1.1
Here is the direct download link:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/45687485/openrecovery-twrp-2.8.1.1-trltetmo.img.tar
Be sure to press the VolUp/Home/Power buttons
all at the same time to go into twrp recovery
Good Luck!
Thank you I will try this when I get home.
