The problem is i think...There is two different mainboard in Inew i2000 the v1.1 and the v2.1...The newer stock roms belongs to second. You guys accidentally flashed wrong firmware for your phones...

If you strip your phones, you can check the pcb version on the motherboard...

And the sollution the "test-spot"!

There is the spot!

You need to remove the back cover and you need 3 item: a piece of wire, a screwdriver (fot the back cover) and a rubber-ring.

First remove almost all the screw, except next to sd card slot (bottom left corner of the sd card slot)...This screw fix the main board and you can remove the back cover without remove this screw.

Put the battery to right position and fix it with rubber ring to the phone.

Prepare with the flash tools and rom, for flashing...(usb cable conect to the pc, scatter file etc...)

Start the flashing with the downlad button and inmediatly sort the spot with the motherboard screw (what you didn't remove) with the wire.

Waiting for the green circle! And Enjoy!

Pls let me know if you successful!

Here is a KitKat THEMED (it's just 4.2.1) rom: [Only registered and activated users can see links Click here to register]

Dear friends,
our problem is that we both have pcb v2.1 and it came with Android 4.2.1 not 4.1.2. My phone came with a problem, it worked well but when I shut it down and turn it on again, the screen was black, only the buttons were lighten and I could only hear the deblocking screen sound. If I took off the battery and put it again, the phone started normally until I turned it off again. So this wasn't too pleasant to open it and take off the battery every time to be able to use it. That was happened since first second I received the phone so I contacted the vendor and they gave me a rom to flash it which I did, but even I told them before that I have the android 4.2.1 version, they gave me the 4.1.2 version which only bricked my phone. All my researches for a proper rom were in van. Not even the seller couldn't give me the proper rom, not even the inewmobile.com which is just a seller not the phone producer wasn't able to give me the proper rom. So I am at the point where I just hear the sound that my computer detects something on usb when I conecting it, at com port, and the flashtool remain at the red line. I even tried the procedure with the service point without sucess. Funny is that I tried tens times to be able to flah the rom they gave me (the wrong one) and after many attempts it "suceeded" to flash and brick the phone. The good news if I can say that is that I have an other working phone (I bought 2) with the same problem but I didn't flashed it too. So If there is any way to download the rom within it I would have the stock rom and try to flash the bricked one. What tool could extract the rom inside it without to damage it in any way? I tried all the ways possible, with the battery in, with it out, with it out then conecting it, with the service point, everything and no sucess. when it doesn't give me any error, it stucks at the red line.
Any other ideas?
Thank you.

Hello!
Please Skot78 read this!
I´ve recently updated my inew i2000 pcb v2.1 android 4.2.1 from firmware e2001v21_v89_cxq_20130510 to 01v21_v89_i2000_20130706 firmware which I found here: [Only registered and activated users can see links Click here to register]
The problem is that the front camera does not work, even the camera app was missing on firmware fresh installed. I Tried to install any camera app from the store but every app says: can´t find or connect camera.
My question is if would it fix that issue reflashing the phone with the stock 4.2.1 for v2.1 that you mention in this post?
It is the exact rom I had before updating. I wish I had made a backup of it before applying the update. Thanks in advance.
