I can most likely help but I will need you to install antutu benchmark or another application that will tell you the hardware in phone. If it is a MT65xx processor then I know how you can root and Uninstall Chinese apps.
Hope this helps!

Looking at that info, it almost looks like you have a real Galaxy S4, you just have one with Chinese firmware on it. Does this info match your devices info:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2249916
Can you power off the phone and then press and hold Vol Down + Home + Power? Does this take you to a warning screen saying you are about to enter download mode? If so then you do indeed have the real deal, but I think it is a clone.
I see some info that looks funny though, it says your OS is built from the 4.0.3 SDK and you have an ICS kernel in there even though it says you are on 4.2.2, It also only shows you having 500MB of internal storage compared to the 9GB on my S4 if you cant get phone into download mode then I would suggest trying to run Motochopper or Root By Restore to get rooted.

Are you not able to go into Settings and change languages? I have bought a few clone phones directly from china and they usually came with english on them but when I reset them they would revert back to chinese and I would have to go into settings and change back to english. I can help guide you through the menus if your menu is in chinese.
As far as roms go, you would most likely either have to find someone with same device that ported a rom over or port it yourself if you know how. Only other option is if there is a forum that supports your specific device.
FYI - to help make looking for a rom a bit easier you have a MT6575 device

Uninstall SuperSU and superuser then try running Motochopper again. If it still don't work, try the chinese root program I linked above. If it fails to let you update su binary then it most likely failed to root your device. If the chinese root program don't work either I still know of another option since you have a MT6575 processor

Modding Chinese Android Hero H6 (android 2.1)

Hello!
I just bought an Chinese Android Phone Hero H6. I guess it's the cheapest Android Phone available (it sells for like US$120) and it has a MTK6516 chip.
I could root it using Universal Androot, but I'd like to take it to the next step:
use apps2sd or maybe update it to Froyo (I don't know if it's possible since it appears to have only 128MB RAM).
To install apps2sd I'd have to update the recovery, right?
Does anyone here has the same device so we can try to make it happen?
I'd be very grateful!
Thank you!

I Wont Lie To You, I'm Not Really Familiar With The Chinese Version, But I Do Have The Cdma Hero!!
You Should Be Able To Do The Same Thing As Me!! Don't See Why Not??
Try *Z4Root* For "Root", & Install
*Rom Manager* For "Recovery"
Also There's A App Called *Install- Manager* That Will Allow You To Move Apps From Phone Without Partitioning Your Sdcard!!
Hope This Helps!!

Go To My Posts! I Think I Posted A App Called "Z4Root"?
Anyway, Use That To Root Your Phone (May Take A Few Tries)
But Definitely Works!!!
Then Depending If You Have S-on You May Have To Download "Unrevoked-Forever" From The Unrevoked.com Website.
Next You Can Go To The Market & Install "ROM Manager" Open That App, Select Flash Recovery, Confirm, Then Go To Install From SdCard.
Select The Unrevoked-Forever Zip, (Make Sure It's Put On The Main Directory Of Your SdCard)
Next I Believe It Will Bring You To Your New Recovery Screen!!
*Note* Recovery Menu Can Be Accessed By Powering Off, Then Powering Back On While Holding Volume Down, Once The Phones On Press The Home Button To Get Into Recovery!
Hopefully This Helps!!
Any Other Questions,
PM Me.... I'll Help You Out!

Hi guys,
I recently bought a Chinese SuperPad and now I'm looking for a Chinese Android Phone. I am thinking of the H6, H9 or Star A3000. All use the same processor.
How are your experiences until now with your phones?

here is the recovery for the h6.
i flashed it using the serial cable, but i am sure you can flash it using adb
megaupload.com/?d=TPYW1GT6
Thanks fat_fat!
i have the 2.2.1 udate by the way.. but its not a zi file!
I need the original firmware for H6, can somebody upload it?
Here is the driver for USB MT6516
megaupload.com/?d=DDRGAX32
So I tried fat_fats recovery.img for the H6, thanks again for the file.
it didn't work though. my screen just flashes in bright light and then the device reboots normally. i do have another revovery that gives me just an exclamation mark and no update.zip option. is there any other way or another recovery.img around to update the h6 from 2.1 to 2.2? any ideas? thanks!
hmm.. thats Odd.. maybe we don't have the same phone???
does your phone have 2 sim cards readers? you might have to life the black sticker under the battery.
the recovery i have, i flashed using a serial/usb cable.
i have the schamatics to build the cable and the flashing utility. I can upload when i get to my computer if you would like!
thats how i was able to update my phone.

Yeah i bought one for my son and i cant even get it to go to the lexibooks app store. I wonder if we could find out the chipset and port a stock nexus7 rom to it or something. Maybe even create our own update.zip
Poop splash gives you AIDS... and an iPhone
I've had a go at compiling aosp before... I'd love to give this a try.
I've been looking for exploits so we can have root.. but there's no point without first having a working clockworkmod recovery. Because u couldn't backup or flash another ROM without it.
If we knew what chipset it was based on.. it would give us somewhere to start. Also some source code would be nice.
I'd be happy to do some builds and test.. but I would need to know I have a backup I can flash if all goes wrong.

Hi,
I did this and the screen shows an android laying down with the cover ("hood") open and an exclamation mark inside a red triangle. What does this mean? Can I do a factory restore? Please help, I got me one of these at a flea market with the plan to give it to my daughter and now it's useless, but she saw it and is all excited about having her own tablet and I'm going to have to buy a new one if I cannot make this one work. Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I had same problem and asked the customer service.
Here is the reply from them.
Please find the steps to unlock the tablet:
Select the settings icon in the corner of your tablet.
It will ask you for your password, leave it blank and the keyboard comes up.
On the bottom of the screen there is a small icon of a keyboard, press on it and then you will press on "set up and input" the settings comes up, press on "back up and reset" then "factory reset" then "tablet reset".
The tablet will be reset in 3 to 5 min, let it restart then put a new password.
Please be aware that if you do a factory reset, the tablet program will be restored but all your datas and applications may be erased except the applications installed by default on the tablet.
Did anyone get theirs rooted at all? If so, could someone help me out? I was trying to put CWM on mine and it seems to be bricked. I can get into flash mode, but have image to flash. So if anyone is rooted, hopefully we can use DD to dump the stock image.
Thanks
If anyone is still interested in this thread, I just acquired a little MFC270EN and successfully rooted it with KingoRoot. I was able to remove all the little games and annoying bloatware. I haven't tried flashing another version of Android onto it, but it's working fine and I'm using Google Chrome (I removed the Lexibook browser with all its "safety" lol), checking my Facebook and I just installed Link2SD to give it some more space.

[GUIDE] Rooting your Huawei Ascend Mate

Hi Folks,
we at the Recieved my Huawei Ascend Mate Threat thought of make it easier for future or new HAM users to root their phone.
For that i reread the whole Threat and extracted the various mentioned rooting options.
IMPORTANT!
Rooting with any of the mentioned methods obviously voids your warranty.
I think that everybody knows this by now, but I'm not responsible if something goes wrong
Having said these standard stuff lets kick off!
First I start with the Method I used and many others, and i think this is the simples rooting method i ever came across.
The easiest is Rooting your HAM with eRoot
1) Get the eRoot Programm from Version 1.2 <- This Works till B221
1.1) For Higher Firmware Versions, like the new B905 use eRoot Version 1.3.4
2) Dig in your phone and enable usb debugging in developer options and in security enable unknown origin
3) Hook up your phone the your rig and on ask select MTP mode and install the Huawei HiSuite (phone drivers )
4) fire up eroot and let it find your phone, if it does hit root ...
5) reboot and that should be it
Confirmed to work on multiple Build Stages of the Stock Rom which currently is sporting version B221
Be aware that if your phone is bone stock you should firstly update the phones software to the newest possible version ...
-> B221 before rooting, otherwise it can cause problems
Second Rooting Method mentioned by PowerMan572
Detailed Instructions Here
i believe syaah used successfully this method
Third Method

said:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/2iuhai9fmmlv8ta/MATE_ROOT.zip
this folder contains the rooting guide and app including the RootAssisstant v2.0. easy method of rooting and can be use for both chinese firmware and international firmware regardless of rom versions. rootassisstant v2.0 is in chinese but no need to worry as we need only to click one box in it. superuser is stable and can be updated in google play. hopefully can help as this is the first and stable method all the suppliers of HAM in China use and provided to their customers.

-> We havent confirmed it yet, but give it a go, it's a simple one klick method, everything is in the Threat:good:
That should be all methods, again all methods seem to work, but i found eroot to be the easiest, basically hook it up and press one button.:victory:
Hope i could help a few new HAM users out

Most of the time yes, but it really depends on which carrier you are (if you bought the phone with a contract) or where you bought it (which Store).
With eRoot you can if you rootet it with it, unroot your phone again.
Thank u very much .. you put the juice in one cup ..

Thanks for the threat.
I'm about to root my HAM with Eroot, I have 3 questions before I do :
1. Any bizarre things happen after rooting with Eroot? Like FC? App missing? etc... (seen people having issues or not after rooting)
2. Would I be able to get OTA updates after rooting? What about a custon recovery? If I install CWM recovery, would I be able to apply OTA updates? If not, would unrooting the HAM allow me to OTA update my phone (then root again afterward)?
3. If something goes wrong while rooting, would I be able to install offcial B113 ROM from SD so I would go all fresh again like I first got the HAM out of the store?
Thanks for your advices.
Have a good one.
Cheers

In some cases we heard in the big Threat Here That you run into trouble witth OTA and root. So we all suggest that the rooting process should be initiated after you upgraded to the desired Firmwareversion.
As im aware there is currently no "real" meaning permanent CWM Recovery present. Only a sideload Recovery, some features didn't work properly, but I assume they manage that.
OTA Updates: I think it's the easiest to unroot it with eRoot and then root it again after the OTA

I didn't heard of something going terribly wrong with eroot, but yes you can of course flash the full B113 from standard Recovery you need no custom recovery for that
Hope i could help :highfive:

As im aware there is currently no "real" meaning permanent CWM Recovery present. Only a sideload Recovery, some features didn't work properly, but I assume they manage that.
OTA Updates: I think it's the easiest to unroot it with eRoot and then root it again after the OTA
I didn't heard of something going terribly wrong with eroot, but yes you can of course flash the full B113 from standard Recovery you need no custom recovery for that
Hope i could help :highfive:

Thanks Onecton for all the inputs, really helpful !
One last question though, I downloaded Eroot v1.2 from the OP, proceeded as indicated, installed HiSuite, PC drivers etc., tried few times to plug my phone when Eroot told me to, but eachtime failed by getting "creating process failed" message, looked like Eroot couldn't recognize my phone... Oh, I'm on latest official OTA B221 FW.
So I went searching over the internet, found there was a Eroot v1.3.3, really not sure if it's official, cos there was (only) v1.2 official app from eroot.me (holy moly ! eroot.me website is gone !!! it's a online sim unlock codes site now ! What happened?), so, with this v1.3.3, it recognized my phone within a second.
Before I clic on that root button, just wanted to check with you experts if the Eroot v1.3.3 is legitimate, or is it some sort of fake app out there.
Thanks again !
Have a nice day.
Cheers

Glad i can help mate :highfive:
Dafuq? eroot.me is gone? Thanks for the heads up, i will change the link accordingly and reroute the link to my dropbox.
Sorry for that
with eroot 1.2 i wasnt able to root too if i recall correctly.... i fired up the 1.2 version it immediately wanted to upgrade, or something. So i let it pull it's update and it worked like a breeze then.
Regarding your version, i really don't know if it is fake or not sorry but what i can say is that i'm fixing the link and it should be up and running again in approx. 4 min.
eRoot link is fixed :highfive:
if you can wait till there, you have most definately the ledigt version :highfive:
also i'm by far no expert and i don't deserve to be called like that :victory:

Thanks again Onecton for the quick reply.
I've downloaded v.1.2 form your original link way before the site is gone (it was yet there 2 days ago!), so no need to be sorry for that
I also fired up v.1.2 like you did, it started to update itself by downloading quite amount of data like you said, but when the update is done, it gave me that error message No such thing with v.1.3.3, it doesn't download anything and recognized my phone immediately... I saw there's even a v.1.3.4 out there!

Thanks fr responding. I did manage to download eroot v1.3.4 but havent test yet.
The b905 is chinese rom i guess based on the topic in the forum (german maybe) called hilfe...
Havent install yet but in our huawei mate forum someone did.
Thanks again.

hi,
manage to download B905 android 4.2.2 rom (presently chinese firmware only). flashed it and seems stable.
i am able to root using EROOT v1.3.4 thanks to you onecton. totally easy and lightning fast rooting procedure.
i downloaded GAPPS (links provided by svvv) which are stable and suitable for the rom.
now everything seems fine and no issue for now.
just want to update.
EROOT v1.3.4 is a 'go' to use (maybe older version can be used too).
Gapps link by svvv is also good to go. and,
both links by dandybq and mixterz are also good to go.
thanks.

Rooted Huawei Mate
I just rooted my Huawei Ascend Mate, I got rid of some bloatwares on the phone such as Kingsoft Office and the language packs.
However, my internal memory size did not increase.
Just wondering,
1) did Huawei divide the 8gb internal memory into 2 parts, 4gb each? the ROM and usage internal memory (detected as SD2, my external SD detected as SD1)
2) How do I install into the Rom part?
this is a weird phone!

My guess is that the 8 GB are indeed divided... But i wouldnt recommend trying to install something in that system reserved space. My guess is that the caches and the ram resides there.
But I am no expert on that stuff.
Maybe its better to post these specific questions over in the main thread .
But in some aspects this is indeed a weird phone

Hi onecton.
Do you think we can use the Rom Cleaner which is also provided in universal use (i guess), to clean up bloatware during installation of rom?
:- about obsidian question, im too think that the ham 8gb is divided coz we have only around 5-6 gb of usage. Maybe the system files resides there. At least we still can use 64gb microcard as expandable memory.
Thanks.

well this sounds tempting ^^ but i don't know.... maybe i read a bit more into it... since i really like the stock 4.2.2. experience... i found that huawei is really generous with its base system, you can just freeze some of the Emution stuff like the lockscreen, still i would like to prefer a bone stock 4.2.2. or 4.1.2. simply because i don't like that OEM overlay ..
can i install 4.2 or 4.3 on my mate ?? from where i can download this rom??

[Q]

Hi all,
I have very minimal knowledge when it comes to Android development - I have never flashed a rom, but I have rooted my phone. Recently, I purchased an AT&T Note 3 from my little brother after he had tried his hand at modifying the phone. He rooted it, flashed Knoxraid, didn't like it, and wanted to revert - he removed root, kind of stupidly, before doing anything else. Now, the phone runs Knoxraid, but isn't rooted and I have been unable to get root again. What am I doing wrong, or what don't I understand?
Thank you all.

download this here and unzip it when its done http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=25106 its android 4.3 so if you want kitkat make sure that kitkat has a root guide if there is one.
download odin here also https://mega.co.nz/#!UdRRyCAT!H4FyVxYynNWvXqRNmnpMGQRCP-dG3uykgP2pT4rh8Ek unzip it as well
Take out your battery and go into download mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons) open odin and connect your phone (in download mode) to your computer, make sure in odin one of the id:com boxes changes color after you plug in your phone. (i dont know what color it is in odin 3.0.9 i have older samsung phones so older odin name for me lol) select AP and select wherever you put the firmware, Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked after that click start and sit back and watch, be sure to move your files onto your computer if you need any from it like pictures/music.

[ROOT + TWRP 3.1-0] Vodafone Smart Ultra 7

UPDATED THREAD
Hey, guys. So here it is:
ROOT + TWRP
Smart Ultra 7 ONLY !
NEW TWRP VERSION: 3.1-0
_____________________________________________________
HOW TO ROOT ? :
This nethod will break OTA, so for update you must use SUGAR.
1) Download TWRP and SPFT from my PAGE and place it on desktop.
2) Download these files and put them on your SD CARD: SuperSU_1 and SuperSU_2
3) Turn off your phone and run SP FLASH TOOL.
3) When the SP FLASH TOOL starts, select MT6755 scatter file and MTK_AllinOne_DA.bin file (they are in SPFT folder)
4) Select ONLY recovery and load the TWRP_3.X.X file. (X.X means a version of TWRP)
5) Press download.
6) Connect your powered off phone to PC via USB cable.
7) After flashing the TWRP, hold VOLUME UP + POWER to boot into TWRP.
8) In TWRP press "INSTALL" and flash the boot patch - SUPERSU_1 and then flash root - SUPERSU_2.
9) Reboot and enjoy.
KingRoot Fidelity
Is it safe to root with KingRoot? Have been trying to figure out the best way root this phone for two weeks now, and trying to avoid KingRoot all this time.
Can you replace the KingRoot Binaries and Root Management Tools with the SuperSU ones?
Will Xposed Framework work on this phone? Really want AdAway, Greenify and Xposed Tweaks on the Vodafone Smart Ultra 7.
Thanks!
You can replace kingroot with supersu thanks to this app:
http://download.dlapk.org/?apkid=darkslide.com.supersume&ver=6.7&server=snah
I did not try the xposed yet.
But it should work properly.
Thanks for the reply,
I still feel skeptical about KingRoot, and there are reports that indicate that replacing KingRoot with SuperSU isn't that easy either, KingRoot seems to completely deny root once altered or removed, which makes it look even more shady, I really want root on this phone, there are tweaks I would love to do such as dpi change, remove the vodafone label on the statusbar and more, but I don't know if I'm willing to use KingRoot in the process. I'm used to SuperSU and Xposed Framework working flawlessly, so I'm really 'scared' on this one.
Thanks

I guess we'll have to wait for further development on the phone, I won't put my phone trough KingRoot, and you even reported that it isn't working for you... oh well.
Really wanted root on this phone, lets hope someone actually picks it up just as they did with the previous model (Smart Prime 6 / Smart Ultra 6).
İt did not work for me too ı hope a way can be found for rooting otherwise i desperately regret to bought this phone

Don't give up just yet, I do understand your desperation, as I feel almost the same as you, but you'll see someone will find a way, at least I hope...
This phone its awesome for its price point, and would be absolutely marvelous with all the tweaks and adjustments root brings to the table.
Who knows, maybe we'll have a full developed phone (custom ROMs, root, recovery, all of that good stuff), we can only wish someone works on it... :highfive:
Doesn't work for me too
Waiting for some devs...

Hey mate, just tried with the link you provided, unfortunately no success.
Been trying since yesterday to root with KingRoot, using different versions even.
Any ideas? USB Debugging in turned on and Unknown Sources as well (obviously).
Really really really want root on this phone.
Thanks!
Custom Recovery, Woop Woop :highfive:
That's strange that it's not working for you..
Many people say that it's not working for them, others say that it's working..
Where the problem could be?
I got my phone rooted after the second attempt, because I forgot to turn on USB debugging.

Everything matches the about phone screen you've sent,
I don't really know what can be different or wrong, but I've done everything right, I even used USB debugging to change my phone's DPI trough Android SDK...
I'm really confused, should I keep trying?

Umm, did you update your phone?
Because my custom build version is 120FKN1 and I even didn't update it.

I didn't, the phone came as it is out of the box, no software updates were made...
I guess we've found the issue, if the software versions don't match, that means everyone with yours (120FKN1) can root with KingRoot, and everyone with mine (060FFN1) can't...
I've got an issue in my hands I see...
