1. Download files HERE
2. Extract 'Android flash' anywhere to your desktop
3. Open the folder within called 'USB VCOM Driver' and chose the folder then file that is your operating system (the .inf) and paste it to your desktop
4. Pull the battery out of your phone and connect the phone to you computer whilst holding the volume up button
5. Open device manager. You should see your phone (it re-appeared every 5 seconds for me). Right click on your phone and press update driver, then browse manually for the .inf file you put on your desktop. Once you've done that disconnect your phone
6. Open 'Android flash' and open Flash_tool and select all the files to make it look like the picture below
7. Press download, then plug in your phone whilst pressing volume up button
8. Done! You now have CWM and have rooted your phone! There are also some other apps that are added too
If you are having issues with your IMEI code read this post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30534835&postcount=32
There's also a issue with external sd cards which is currently being worked on. (phone can't write to sd card. if you attempt, phone reports sd card as damaged and sd card will need to be re-formatted)
Big thanks to yiminghung, he helped me figure out how to do it.
If I've made any errors in this please tell me I will fix asap, and if anyone has any updates/ROMs, please message me and I'll post them here.

Looks Good!

Getting warning message "not all images are correctly loaded"
Followed all step to the "click Download", when i click download a warning dialog tells me that not all images are correctly loaded, which may cause boot up issue!, do I want to continue"
I have checked many times and all images are set as you have shown in your screen shot?
Any Idea what is not right?
Edit: it appears to be caused by DSP_BL not being selected??

hi
may I ask an information.
I'm going to buy a zp900 9300+ is a clone of the zoppo zp900
with mtk6577 and 512mb of ram... with android 4.1.1
do you think is possible to use the same procedure for the root
of the phone? do I have to uncheck something? or change any file?
thanks
Antonio

i bought the same phone and would love to know if this root method works for this phone, it has the same MTK6577 CPU as the haipai X710D

Hi all. I am a new registered. My name is Filippo and I'm Italian (sorry for my English googltraslate).
In a few days I will come to me x710d. I wanted to ask you questions.
1) What improvements does the root of the phone? Have to wait at the root with the update to Android 4.1 bj?
2) Before you root, I have to make a backup / image of the system for use in case I have a problem? If it is, how should I do it?
3) This root change the size of the internal memory or I'll do it later? In the second case, how can I swap the memory card with the internal one?
The last question is that there is risk in doing these operations? You advise me to do to its?
Excuse my inexperience and thank you all in advance.

Thank you so much for posting this. The Flash tool is quite confusing to use. Your instructions really helped.

great work
i've just want to know how to root it

Success or Failure
I have tried many ways\suggestions to root my X710D and this is the only one I have not yet tried.
Before I do try this procedure It would be helpful if people that have done this on the X710D could report their success or failure.
I would like to know this because I do not know enough and do not want the get into more trouble with the device.
Thanks for sharing your experiences....

I successfully rooted my x710d using the steps given. Before I rooted my phone, I updated it to the latest 4.0.9 (latest firmware is in another forum read here).
This root also comes with the custom recovery (probably taken from HTC because there is an HTC boot screen logo). However, I encountered three main problems after the I successfully executed everything.
First, my IMEI got erased (solved this using ZOPO). (read here there is an explanation how to put your IMEI's back. )
Second, external Sd-card gets no write permissions and also it errors damaged sd-card from time to time (still finding ways to solve this).
Third; Since, I live in Japan, I am still finding ways how to enable MMS on this thing through sofbank.
for the good side;
Rooted phone is awesome.
This phone is quite fast for its price especially with the new firmware.
Sofbank APN settings where automatically there already (I dunno if this was because of ICS or X710d firmware just came in with these settings). Everything else is working very well. Camera, Bluetooth, GPS, WIFI, Radio, etc....

GreatPharaoh Thanks for such a clear and detailed post, this is what makes XDADevelopers such a great community.
Your reply is just what I needed to hear, me being new to this platform.
I purchased one of these as a development machine with the intention of using it as my phone also, but I had been highlighted that some sellers just are not in a position to support the products they sell. We also order two more from another seller to edge our bets on delivery times, but when we discovered some issues and the second seller also demonstrated that they have poor after sales support when managed to cancel these additional two X710D (with an insulting response from this seller).
I my case I asked very specific questions about the product and got nothing but positive replies before purchase, in addition I needed the device to have a working compass and magnetic sensor which also received a "Yes" but once we confirmed payment communication with the delivery and questions dried up. Once delivered, we found that while the X710D does have a Compass and Magnetic sensor they are not implemented.
Now we are concerned about the IMEI bug and these seller does not want to know about it.
So, while we accepted some risk in purchasing a Chinese phone at reasonable price, we really are concerned about this model and did not anticipate the amount of risk.
Now being a software developer (not Android or Linux) I had the approach the we can fix anything, but at this time in a new OS world it has proven to be again high risk and we can not afford to brick this device. So we have decided to return it for a refund.
I will continue to monitor these posts, because I am keen to see if things get resolved and to learn from the experiences of others. It is great to see many members with far greater skills than mine helping each other.
I have also had great hand-holding from ColonelZap through some of out attempts to resolve these issues, so a huge thanks to him.
Again thanks GreatPharaoh for a great post and I am sure that it will help others looking at the X710D and maybe they will find a solution to your remaining issues.

The X710D is a copy of the HTC Evo 4g LTE which will explain the boot logo.
Thank you for mentioning the sd card issue, i bought a rather expensive 32gb class 10 card to find it didnt work in my phone. Its very difficult to get it to work and when it does work my phone cant write to it. If you find a fix ill update the maim post.
Ive noticed lots of people mentioning issues with their imei codes. I havent come across this issue but there is a fix at post 3. Ill update the main post with it later.
Im posting from my phone sp sorry for typing errors. Whats th best keyboard for this phone? Im currently usibg swype but as you can see its.pretty bad. The defaultkeyboard it even more difficult to type.on

Lost IMEI on x710D
Is this issue of losing IMEI only related to the X710D or is this a common problem with Chinese Android phones?

Once again, deepest Thanks to Jaw2Floor for posting the steps.
@Technica; yup, I couldn't agree with you more about these sellers. Seems like these phones where probably manufactured in someones old garage with one or two developers who couldn't do much english. And they would just send em to these vendors for retail. These sellers, However, are so smart with marketing, they would flood youtube and google with fake reviews (although most of em are just unboxings) and lead us with just curiosities. This is probably why they are so good at selling but very bad in support. Long story short, we are only paying for the hardware here.
For the Imei case: I wonder why everyone is not having this problem..?. Maybe this is also hardware related. This was the first problem I faced right after my first ever Factory Default Reset on the phone. I was so terrified that moment, I thought I bricked or fried the modem.
The Sd-card issue is still there: "My temporary fix is reformat card in PC and recopy your media. Do this every time you get the damaged sd-card error."
I can access my card with read permissions only. My media gallery and other media apps can see the card and the contents. However, as soon as I start to write the card (e.g. making new folder or deleting a file from any file explorer app) the "Damaged sd-card error" will start to appear and you wont be able to get rid of this until you take the card out, format it in your PC, recopy all your media, then mount it again in your x710d. This is what ive been doin for the past couple of days to enjoy music in this phone.
The Headphone Jack is also too deep. If you compare side by side the stock headphone/mic with any other regular headphone, this one came in with a much longer jack. I was able to fix this problem by widening the headphone hole on the phone's back casing and also splicing an mm of rubber on my regular headphone jack.
The stock Email-app are having problems setting up with Yahoo's mail servers. So, im using K-9 mail for now.
As for now, I am enjoying this phone. I get a lot of eye's whenever I take this out of my pocket in Tokyo trains. Its not a note! Its the money-saver version.

Root p920 ics4.04

方法一：

http://bbs.gfan.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=5920533
方法二：
大家现在的ROOT方法是要解BT锁，但都知道解BT锁会影响底层性能，用段时间会导致偶尔卡顿触屏不灵等现象，这都是因为第三方BT锁的兼容性引起的，下面说说我个人的见解及步骤：
1、先把已经刷好国际版并解锁ROOT后的系统用RE备份一个，后面有用
2、再刷移植版的4.04
3、按照移植版的ROOT方法先把手机系统给ROOT了
4、不要解锁刷入RE(注意必须是不要解锁状态下刷入RE)
5、再把第1步备份的国际版系统恢复到手机里
6、后面该怎么做大家应该都知道了吧
因为本人这段时间工作太忙，连4.04都没时间刷，怕因为手机影响工作，所以还得需要有时间折腾的机油努力
又想到了另一种方案：
1、刷好国际版并解锁ROOT（这一步相信大部分机油都已经做了）
2、用救砖工具刷回官方的BootLoader（或者把救砖工具里的LG官方BT文件，扩展名为bin，替换掉解BL锁工具的目录里替换，再用解锁工具去再一次解锁，实际是刷回官方的BT文件）
下图中左边是救砖用的LG官方BT文件在omap4boot-for_optimus-v1.16压缩包里，右边是第三方的兼容BT文件在[All-In-One][P920]压缩包里，把左边的文件刷回系统去就相当于把BT锁还原到官方了

Method two:
It is now the ROOT method is to BT solutions for lock, BT but knows solution locks from affecting the underlying performance, period of time can lead to occasional phenomena such as cotton touch screen not work, BT this is because third parties caused by the compatibility of the lock, talk about my personal views and steps below:
1, International Edition has a good brush and unlock the ROOT system after RE back up one, followed by useful
2, then brush transplant version 4.04
3, in accordance with the transplanted ROOT method to ROOT the phone system
Unlock 4, do not flush RE (Note must be flush RE under is not unlocked)
5, and then step back up the 1th international system to mobile phone
What to do after the 6, we should all know it
Because I work this time too busy, no time to brush even 4.04, because mobile phones affect work, efforts also needed time to toss the oil
Thought about another scenario:
1, good brush International Edition and unlock the ROOT (this step to believe that most of the oil has already been done)
Saving bricks for 2, tool brush back to the official BootLoader (or BT files saving brick tools in the LG official, a bin extension, replacing BL lock tool replacing the file in the directory of the solution, then unlock the tool to unlock again, is actually a brush back into the BT official documents)
In the figure below left is saving brick omap4boot-for_optimus-v1.16 cabinet with the LG official BT file on the right third-party compatibility of BT file [All-In-One][P920] compression bag, brush back to the system to file on the left is equivalent to restore to the official BT locks

After a whole day of toss finally successfully, will share experiences of friends, I guess there are not people, enter the subject,
1. I followed the success of this method. You can follow this post step by step http://BBS.gfan.com/forum.php?mo ... 3421&extra=page%3D1
Tools are as follows: 1, BL lock tool download solution http://pan.Baidu.com/share/link?shareid=196317&UK=1076531750
After extraction will be ICSv21e_boot this file
Remove phone batteries, insert computer USB,
Computers and cell phones has been called, computer display new hardware 4,430, update driver, which has 4,430 drive, download, unzip to 4430 usb_drv_windows.rar (4.59 MB)
(Download count: 50 yesterday 18:10 upload)!attachcredits!:G coin-1
Everyone's problem may appear here: (install 4,430 drive opens the Device Manager first, pull the battery, plug the line, staring at 4,430 occurs when, immediately right-click the 4,430, select Properties, Driven--update driven then next--from list or specified location installed then next--do not search I to themselves select I to installed of driven then next---double-click displayed so equipment--click from disk installed--click Browse--found just download of 4,430 driven file android_winusb then next--way determines, on installed finished has, 4,430 driven on loaded finished, front of yellow exclamation mark on no has, 4,430 still keeps flashing after installed, do not cares, because the yellow exclamation mark has gone. Open brush program, plug in the data cable will not Flash! ) This time you can open the ROOT software had begun to ROOT.
Driver installation is completed, open the kit, run ICSv21e_boot.bat.
Option 1: brush ICS bootloader and brush into the recovery, brushing this can be brushed directly corresponds to the ICS brush packages
2 options: brushed 21E bootloader and brush into the recovery, brush the brush can be brushed directly corresponds to the cm,2.3 card package
When we choose 1.
Appears "wait 5 seconds" immediately fitted the battery, wait a moment,
Computer displays have a piece of hardware does not drive, manually install the drivers (driving steps and 4,430 drive, I drive the same file).
When the interface displays Your P920 is ready to boot into GB again. Reboot. When
Phone manual reset.
When you have a touch-screen version of the recovery have already been brushed, unlock, and BL.
Well BL solutions after the lock, enter just flush touch-screen version of the RECOVERY, enter: reloading battery was taken out, according to 3D+ volume + power, bright screen after release, LG icon disappears, release d and the volume.
Some are copy-and-paste, easy operation, infringement of your understanding. Hope that we will be successful.
Tool failure, each post has, we speak to, I'm not going to upload.

gee! that's just what he worry about!! calm down brother! he got the ideas on rooting the new v28b! but he has no idea how to

well, imo, why wasting time on testing this ideas, while we already have the prerooted bin. and it got TWRP too! so no need to take the risk and to translate anything here.

You don't even need a prerooted rom.
You can flash official v28b and on top of it flash 1.25a wkparks bootloader and twrp.Then in twrp you flash su and it's done.
Xbsall made a good rom but I like stock better so...

You missed the point man.
I didn't say anything about your prerooted rom, I just said that there is an easy way to get the stock rom rooted if you want.
Some people like stock roms and don't want to experiment to much,if you know what i mean.
Not me though. XD
By the way I totally support your work and I'm glad that you do, what you do.:thumbup:

[GUIDE] ROOT INSTRUCTIONS + Enable Developer options Read BEFORE you attempt root!!

**WARNING: BY ROOTING YOUR PHONE AND FOLLOWING THESE INSTRUCTIONS YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOUR WARRANTY WILL BE VOID. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES RESULTING FROM THIS OPERATION**​
This guide is intended to prevent some adventurous new Galaxy S 4 owner from bricking their brand new phone
DO THIS BEFORE CONNECTING YOUR PHONE TO YOUR COMPUTER FOR THE FIRST TIME​
This is also the future home of the collection of kernels, ROMs, Mods, etc that will be in development in the near future (hopefully).
Adam Outler and crew are currently trying to unlock the AT&T Galaxy S 4 bootloader. Please go to their thread and show their THANKS buttons some love.
HOWEVER, DO NOT POST IN THIS THREAD UNLESS YOU ARE CONTRIBUTING TO THEIR R&D!!
READ "The rules" IN THE OP​
This method of root was exploited by djrbliss. Please visit the original thread and thank him by any means you see fit.
This is not done through download mode or recovery, so don't worry about any button combos. The phone just needs to powered on and running the way you would normally use it.
First things first. You should begin downloading the files you'll need later on.
Download the latest Samsung USB Drivers and the Root Exploit Executable

}
Begin installing the Samsung USB Drivers.
It can appear that the installer program isn't doing anything for a while so just be patient.
When the motochopper.zip file finishes downloading
right-click on it and select Extract All...
I usually just leave it at the default location and click Extract
It should finish this fairly quickly. When it does finish, open the motochopper folder in the resulting window. You can now ignore this window until you need it later.
For the sake of efficient use of time, while the drivers are being installed and motochopper.zip is being extracted, you should turn your attention to the phone itself. It needs to be prepared for being connected to your computer for the first time.
USB debugging within Developer options needs to be enabled to use this exploit. There are some that would say that if you don't know how to do this, you shouldn't be in the development forums. To them I say, "Everyone had to learn from somewhere. WHY NOT HERE??" :laugh:
To enable Developer options, open Settings and click on the "More" tab, then "About device". Mine shows where Developer options will be after doing this.
Near the bottom is an entry called "Build number", click on it repeatedly (7 times) until a toast pops up telling you that developer mode is on.
Press the back softkey and click on "Developer options". If you don't see it, you didn't click the "Build number" enough times.
DO NOT CHANGE ANY ENTRIES IN THIS SECTION WITHOUT KNOWING WHAT THEY DO FIRST!!​
Click on USB debugging
click OK on the "Allow USB debugging" window that pops up.
When the Samsung USB Drivers are finished installing, connect the phone to your computer using the USB cable that came with your phone. Windows Update should start looking for software for your phone immediately as indicated by the popup window that appears at the bottom-right of your screen when you have your phone connected to the computer. You can click on this window to watch it's progress, or simply wait for the next one telling you that your device is ready to use.
After you see this dialog, go back to the folder that opened when you extracted motochopper.zip and double-click on the file named run.bat
and click Run on the dialog window that pops up.
when the command line window appears, press enter to begin rooting your phone.
A dialog window will appear on your phone asking you for permission to let ADB execute commands. Click OK.
when the rooting process finishes, press enter to reboot the phone and close the command line window.
**YOUR PHONE IS NOW ROOTED AND YOU CAN USE APPS THAT REQUIRE ROOT**​

Agreed - except for "enabling Developer options and USB Debugging" which I thought might be good in the OP of the "real" thread (and frankly is not called out well in this OP), this doesn't seem to add anything.

No need to clutter the Development thread with guides, thats what General is for. I'm sure this will help someone but its still in the wrong section unless you have a kernel or rom to post.

Thread moved, post in accordance with XDA rules, thanks and enjoy the new phone.

I posted it here because this is where people trying to root their phone will look. Thanks for the kind words of encouragement. It makes the 6+ hours I spent on it all worth it, even after none of my screenshots showed for some reason.

Good evening,
I have been trying to room my AT&T i337 for 3 days now and have failed every time. I have enabled developer but NEVER get the popup on my phone to approve ADB connection. The motochopper script fails each time. Is there something I am missing? This is getting to be a problem because I need to be able to run WIFI Tether for work.... Help!

Are you using a new or known good cable? Try re downlooading the zip.
Make sure you extracted the zip. Remove and reinstall device drivers.
Have you tried foxfi in the playstore?

Thank you for the fast response. I am using the USB that came with the phone. I have tried multiple USB ports on my computer and have gotten the Motochopper file from 3 different locations. I have downloaded the USB driver from Samsung twice and installed. I even tried 2 different computers. I am at wits end....
I wrote Foxfi to see if this phone is compatible and hope they respond shortly.
Thanks,
Fred

Fixed missing ADB connection
Wow, I seemed to have fixed the problem myself by chance. I executed the adb.exe file in the Motochopper folder as a stand alone (a few times in fact) and the next time I connected my phone I got the pop-up to accept and was able to root it! In all the posts I have read, not once has anyone mentioned this. Wow, rooted at last! Thanks! :laugh:

In the attempts before that, did the command line window even open when you tried to run the batch file?
EDIT: Typo
Swyped from the 4th Galaxy on XDA Premium

Something that neither root guide mentions in the OP is that you might also need to disable "Verify apps via USB." It was disabled the first time I rooted, but it was enabled after I did a factory reset and rooted again. If root is failing, see if that option is checked and uncheck it if it is.
Can't attach or post a link, yet, or I'd include a an actual link to a screenshot. URL here: i.imgur.com/Ord8xxj.png

[Q] Deleted important files with titanium backup

Hey.
First post here!!! But sadly I'm admitting to being a noob...
I recently rooted my galaxy s4 i337 and I heard about deleting bloatware so I was like, "hey that sounds cool!"
Sadly I did not realize the effects that deleting those files could cause to the device... I have factory reset my phone at least 5 times hopping that the deleted files would come back.... but they did not.
My problems are that whenever I pull up s-voice, I comes up with a message saying, "Unfortunately, S-voice has stopped working". I tried re-installing it with files I found from this site but then it started saying that I could not connect to the network so that was a dead end. I also have messages when I do various tasks says, "Unfortunately, Samsung text-to-voice engine has stopped."
I really need help!!! I change my main language text to voice thing to google instead of samsung and that helped a little, but I still get the occasional message and s voice is completely broken. I saw that re installing chat on could help and i downloaded it because I think I may have deleted it, but it made absolutely 0 difference...
Please help!!! Thanks

[3] Problem:- Odin gets Stuck on <ID:0/008> Set PIT file. or <ID:0/003> SetupConnection.. or <ID:0/007> Removed!
Note:
When using Odin to Flash, Open task manager and close these : Kies.exe , KiesTrayAgent.exe, and KiesPDLR.exe
IF your downloaded File (.tar, .zip, .md5 .rar ) is corrupted, Odin could get stuck too, so download from another source, if it happens repeatedly
Solution:-
First reboot PC after a power cord unplug and also reboot the Phone after a battery pull. Always use a Fresh Odin after any attempt to flash, than make sure you "Uncheck Repartition", If you had checked it or clicked Pit when you are not using one. You should also be running Odin as an Admin and ensure that KIES is not running when using Odin. Most of all, only use Samsung USB cable and not others as they may be incompatible and trying it out on a lap top or another PC ( when it happens repeatedly)

A real amateur!!

Hello to the crew at XDA!!!
Thought I'd register and see if I can get a lil help/guidance from anyone.
I have the Oneplus one (recently discovered it is called bacon) , the 64gb model.
My story goes a lil something like this.........
I was playing around with my phone at the weekend and noticed it had TWRP, does this mean my phones been rooted? In my mind, TWRP menu would be bios on a pc.
Anyway, so I was looking around bios and somehow managed to delete everything off my phone, no apps and no contacts and I should of left this WELL alone but it was too late, I'd lost my phone :crying:
I have been trying to learn about flashing/dirty flash, md5's, ROMs, gapps,etc. I managed to get an OS on the phone but no apps. The gapps I tried to flash(install) just froze, thought it'd take time, I gave it time and so no joy. So I am wondering can someone guide me to the version I had on the phone before or tell me a better OS and corresponding gapps that can customize what google apps I can put on without slides,sheets,newsstand,stuff like that please? And I guess all I have has gone but I still have the files on my phone for example, CSR 2, Facebook, etc. Is there anyway of getting the apps I once had, as well as my contacts?
Please go easy on me, I'm totally new to all this and only learning because I had no choice but I am finding it quite interesting. I never knew there's so many OS options. Heard of rooting but the fear of bricking my phone kept me clear but I want my apps n stuff back, if poss.
Sorry for the looooong winded essay! but at least you know what I've done to lose all my stuff.
Your Patience is greatly appreciated!! :good:
G.

ll try to help , but sorry for my bad english btw
1. better OS , i think lineageOS is stable for now , im using that too , no problem so far. download the rom from official website ,and..
a. Link : https://download.lineageos.org/bacon
2. dont forget the gapps (openGapps) and make sure ur rom android version and the gapps are same
a. Link : http://opengapps.org/ , choose ARM -> 7.1 -> and for the variant , im using micro ,but its up to you
3. Procedure is pretty simple ,
a. put the file on ur internal storage
b. go to TWRP by pressing volume down and power at the same time and hold
c. once u booted up to twrp , choose wipe , and check data , cache , dalvik , and system (not internal , not again)
d. after it , go to install , and choose the rom , press add more zip , and choose the gapps , and u r good to go
e. press install and wait till it finished ,
f. Reboot
4. but sorry i cant help u about the apps and the contacts, but i think the contacts will automaticly sync once u sign in ur google account
hope it help thx , sorry for ma bad english once again

Hello Azhar_Farhy,
I do apologise for such a vacant response from me, busy days
Thank you for your reply I must say also.
I had tried as per your instructions and lineage OS did install but came up with flash errors, did write them down as:
Patching system image unconditionally
E: unknown command (log)
E: unknown command (log) in red letters
I also copied the md5sum, wrote it in txt in windows. Copied it into same place as OS flash but didn't find it??
So as for the OS goes, it's been unable to a point. It loads ok, the gestures are mixed up (I noticed 'V' brought up camera and 'O' brought up the torch), not that I use them anyhow. But using the browser, some pages work and alot don't so that's my issue with the OS.
Now with the gapps,
I had issues flashing this altogether. This came up with an error code 70?
Error as follows:
E: Error executing updater binary in zip''/sdcard/Download/open_gapps-arm-7.1-stock-201705010zip
Error flashing zip *followed by the same error path as above??
So as you might of guessed, I'm still without any apps and forced to use a tired s3 atm but may consider changing it up once it got the hang of it on the phone in question.
And in other news......, have a my contacts!!!! So that was a close call!! ??
I'll look forward to anyone's interested in the matter ☺.

The two errors because of twrp not at latest version, but isn't a problem the flash isn't compromised. The gapps didn't flash because stock package is too big, use nano instead and download others from PlayStore. So wipe once again dalvik, system, data and cache then install lineageos + gapps and reboot, complete the first startup procedure with your google account and you will have your contacts back.

Gapps error 70 happens because you don't have enough space in root. You are trying to flash gapps-mini or higher. Flash micro and then download the other Google apps you need from the store.

Hi Lisko,
I chose the stock gapps package because I thought it would be the package that was on before I cleaned it off?
And I'm not able to get any apps at all, not even Google play is on the phone I tried to go to browser and download but it says it's already installed so yeah, a bit confused with that one mate lol ?
I'll give nano a try. Will this help the browser issue as well? Most browser windows crash and close???
Thanks for the response ?

Gapps error 70 happens because you don't have enough space in root. You are trying to flash gapps-mini or higher. Flash micro and then download the other Google apps you need from the store.

His seanwlk,
I'm not sure i follow when you say 'enough space in root'? Could you break it down in layman's terms please ??
I was flashing stock gapps which occurred the error, which I thought stock would of been appropriate for the phone. But I do want to shave some apps off, you say to flash gapps mini. Lisko says nano. Is there alot of difference between the two, other than being lighter on space?
Thank you for your response ??

Mini is still too big, here is the packet comparison https://github.com/opengapps/opengapps/wiki/Package-Comparison
The only difference between these is basically the amount of gapps that it contains.
Flash micro and download the rest you need from play store.
With space in root I mean this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

I'll give it a try now and I'll get back to you all.
Cheers

Good afternoon all.
Really sorry for being a month later to get back to you all but I've been snowed under the past month with work and just haven't had time to get back to you! Please accept my apologies
In regards to the lineage is and gapps, the OS does work but it's browser crashes on every page which is mostly annoying and so I tethered my phone to my tablet which works but I just discovered that chrome works without issues, so yeah, I got gapps and fully operational ☺. Found all my numbers and apps so happy days!!!!
I will ask though, is there another OS I could use as there's so e things I can't seem to remove like the shortcuts on lock screen? Either I've got torch or camera open when I get it out of my pocket, OS browser crashes. There was something else but I can't remember....
And even though the phone is operational, I had the same errors when flashing both the OS and gapps. Saying errors on both but work okay?
I'm not sure where to find "root storage" to know if it has enough space, if someone could explain that, would be really helpful please.
Is there any other OS platforms that are a bit more functional than lineage please? Or anything cool to stick on and be different from most phones? ??
Just want to thank you to all those that have been really helpful!!! ???

If you're looking for customization I recommend Resurrection Remix.
link : https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/rom-resurrection-remix-t3507102
You had better flash nano gapps because of the size limit of system partition.
You can install other google apps such as chrome from play store.

I think I have nano gapps on but just downloaded remix.will flash later. After I see how to backup before I mess my phone up again ? and I ain't doing that again!!!!
It's good you can have a library of ROMs/gapps once their on the phone to switch n choose.
I'll let you know how I get on.

You can backup your device via TWRP

Hello people of XDA!
I'm back ??.
I hope all is well with everyone here?
Might as well cut to the chase.
Can someone guide me to the original Marshmallow os for the opportunity please?
I've had the resurrection remix and I thought it was cool as you can modify absolutely anything, BUT, at the cost of apps crashing, phone not lighting up when someone calls and has been very frustrating to say the least. And I never got round (till now) to mention it.
I think the phone is on its way out as the battery drains like crazy and for some reason, whilst it's not in use, it still remains warm and battery still goes, even whilst at work and is in my coat. So I'm thinking of trying to save the last bit of the phone before it completely goes to data heaven.
Can anyone help? Pretty please? ???*
Thank you guys in advance!!

Many thanks C4SCA for that link but I'm afraid I don't have a pc at hand. All I used was the phone to flash the files but with that link, flashing is not possible.
Is there another way to sort this dilemma....pretty please?
Thanks again.

A real amateur....strikes again! Technology isn't my friend...
Hi guys,
This just proves how much of an amateur i am. Spent the best part of about 35 mins writing my essay in 'quick reply', only for it to expire....and i was typing on my little Hudl2 keyboard....
So now i'm starting ALL over again, this time with otg cable and wireless keyboard. Let's see if i remember it all...... eh?
So in conclusion to your reply

, i have only just found out how to tether my phone to pc for internet. 21 days later to your reply but i whole heartedly appreciate your help.
With the reply last night, not having a pc at hand, i wasn't at home but i had done some looking around online and found that the marshmallow os is no longer to be updated, so, therefore, i looked around for a new & stable os for the oneplus 'bacon' & came across the pie os from watching Max Lee's (high on android channel) on Youtube. Claiming it's stable and battery life is good (that was my attraction to this).
So.....first things first (and this was all done without a pc, last night).
I backed up my phone to my hdd using the otg cable and backed up via twrp recovery as advised before by
psxda97
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I then searched for the pie os and found it on XDA site. But as i watched further on Max Lee's channel, i needed to update the twrp recovery ( mine was v2.8.0? i think?). Found twrp version 3.2.3 img file. downloaded it via phone, swtiched to recovery and wiped phone but reinstalled Ressurection Remix (as i backed up to hdd but needed an os to operate) then flashed latest twrp.
Instead of rebooting phone from recovery (don't know why i did this??) but i switched off the phone and back on. Knowing all apps and contacts were gone, i wanted to see if twrp had updated it'self. So i switched off the phone again and back to recovery, only to see that it would not load recovery at all......? It just froze with the oneplus logo (not even with 'powered by Android' at the bottom).
It would switch off by holding down the power button, would go to fastboot, would power back up but never into recovery.
So then today get's better...........!!!!!
I watched more about adb & fastboot on various channels on youtube, online and guides via xda and thought this is my only option to get it back open. So i went home and tried to sort this mess out by:
1, opening development options on phone & enable debuggin
2,download adb driver & fastboot from Max Lee's site
3,unzipped and loaded them into my pc
4,reconnected phone to pc to activate the debuggin message on phone screen( was none?)
This didn't work as my pc said there wasn't a driver for the adb (error code 28).
I updated my pc, even via windows update to restart updates, as some had failed. Pc all up to date.
In device manager, tried manual search for driver path (to universal adb file), no luck. Then tried to find online, still, no luck as pc said to find vendor/website host? Most search for driver came up with the same Universal adb download.
Tried to then fix the code 28 by installing intels adb driver and other adb driver's and still no joy.
But the thing i found strange was in Programs (uninstall), both Universal adb & fastboot were there. just can't find the link between them to the phone?
So i'm very frustrated by technology so no need to shout at me for doing silly things.....But i guess that's how we learn to fix things i guess?
If anyone who has read this and willing to help a fool out, i sincerely appreciate this! :victory: PLEASE?
Without fastboot (code 28)
without twrp recovery
Basic Ressurection os
Without my contacts & apps & life stuff.
Not able to backup from hdd
Stuck............
FYI.
PC is Intel i3, running windows 7 32 bit. Should that help anyone with my issue.
Yours sincerely,
My-man-G

Have you go into fastboot mode? Turn off your phone, then boot using power+vol up.
