    4. HI Abhi,

      Again some issues are occurring in this ROM such as application stops in between suddenly; I guess it will be because of RAM issue.

      Please let me know in case any other ROM could resolve this problem or else do I need to go again to my previous Stock ROM?

  24. I Downloaded V3 and V2 when scatter file loaded in SP flash tool everthing loads ub except uboot file. Its is not there in the both download. I accidently flashed it and afterwards no light in mob. I can even see wether its charging or not. please provide uboot file for A88 pleases………

    Reply

    2. Can You check the Folder for UBOOT file whether it is there or not ? I dont see such file in my zip file. I think , thins UBOOT file will be the one for screen display. All others wont have such prob because , already this file will be there in their phone ROM. They will be flashing other files so they wont have such pron. But I have flashed server times with other roms too . so it could be corrupted . So I would require that file alone .

  26. Thanks Abhishek
