Hi all im just looking at a cheap phone for my mom that will pretty much just be used for phone calls and texts but I was wondering if anyone has got one of these phones and if you can root them so I can delete some rubbish off it so she has got some more room for apps as they only have 4g I believe if anyone could help id be really grateful

I didn't see any sites that talks about rooting, but you should check out the one click rooting application to see if your device is supported.

I've bought one of these Doogee DG100 smartphones, had it about a month now, and it's really excellent value for the price - I can't find anything I don't like about it. Well built, great phone and I'd highly recommend it. Well, Ok, the plastic fake leather cover's a bit naff, but hey.
I've rooted it using SRSRoot, flashed the latest firmware from the Doogee download site and I use MKTDroid for ADB access etc.
I removed all of the junk I didn't want, and removed the preloaded apps (twitter, whatsapp, skype etc) and reinstalled them from the Play Store - I didn't trust that some of them wouldn't update properly.
Managed to brick it too by doing dumb stuff, but the Doogee Flashtool just let me reflash the firmware and away it goes again.
Seems pretty bullet proof. Let me know if you get stuck and I'll try to help out.
Good luck!

Hi,
I don't know if it's because it's all written in Chinese when I get to the page with the actual zip on it or if it's because I'm blind and am missing some important visual cue on the page, but I can't figure out how to download the firmware or how to get the tools. Any advice on this? I even tried looking at the source code to see if there is a direct link to the file, but it's all full of JavaScript.
Incidentally, is there any indication on the site as to whether we might expect a newer version of Android on this phone in the future?

If you use the SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1320.0.174, you will manage to overcome that problem, but then you'll face the real one. The real problem is that your,phone like mine too, has a different version LCD display, that needs firmware 0926 to work right. If you use 0917, phone will flash, reboot, but show garbage on screen. I am asking Doogee to provide me the 0926 firmware (the one that my phone had installed when it arrived 5 days ago), but they don't reply to my mails. It also seems that the new display is not IPS as the earlier versions, as it greys while on angle and shows color shifting (obvious even with garbage on screen...).
I am waiting for a second DG100 within next week, so if anyone can share a way about extracting 0926 firmware from it, i would be obliged...

Ok, i managed to get my phone working again, by using an extracted rom from a phone with 0926 firmware.
h**ps://docs.google.com/file/d/0B2JMI3yL-RxZWHdYaFYycDhsdUE/edit?usp=sharing
Download this files, extract them in folder with firmware 0917 and then flash them to the phone. This will work until we get the firmware from the factory (if it ever publishes it). Doogee no more for me, by the way, their customer support sucks...

Doogee announced new firmwares, 0926 and 1101 for DG100 at their site. Try 1101 first and then the 0926.
Solution
I solved the problem of the error 4032, steps:
1) i used windows xp, i don't know if it will work in windows 7.
2) i did use firmware 9_26 and flashtools v3.1328.
3) select the scatter of the firmware 9_26, leave marked only PRE-LOADER and click in DOWNLOAD.
4) Keep pushed (power) + (volume -) and connect the cable to the pc. You must see the red line, then purple and finally the green circle, then disconnect the cable.
5) Now unmark PRE-LOADER and mark the rest of the options and click in DOWNLOAD; then connect the cable keeping the buttons (power) + (volume -) pushed; now you must see the red line, then the yellow line and the green circle.
Thanks to Asterisd for your advice.

I use Chrome which seems to auto-translate and gives me a Chinglish version of the screens, which makes it a lot easier.
I assume you got to the pan.baidu download site? If so, in the middle of the screen there is an icon that looks a bit like a suitcase. Above and to the right there are two rectangular buttons, one blue and the other unfilled. Click the unfilled one. A popup window will appear with another two rectangular buttons at the top, one blue and one unfilled. Again click the unfilled one. That should start the download.
This site has a list of the latest downloads: http://www.doogee.cc/en/gb/xiazai.asp - I'm currently running DG100-0917 and about to try DG100-1101
Hope that helps.

What's the exact wording of the message(s) you get? I recall I had some difficulty with this and googled how to overcome it, including deleting incorrect application IDs and certificates from one of the Android files - sorry, I can't now remember exactly what steps I followed but if you can post the exact message I'll try to help.
I don't think I was able to get Facebook to update from Play, no matter what I did. I think I read somewhere that this might be to do with one of the themes that Doogee / Mediatek use being incompatible with later versions of Facebook.
Anyway, please post the message(s) and I'll see what I can do.
Cheers.
DG100-1101 breaks WiFi
I installed the latest firmware, DG100-1101 but unfortunately Wi Fi and Bluetooth don't work, and when I reverted to DG100-0927 I get an odd entry in WiFi settings NVRAM WARNING Err = 0x10. Everything else seems OK though.
I would advise NOT upgrading to this version and if anyone finds a fix for the Wi Fi issue' please post here, thanks
hopefully this will help out some people and the developers to make,fix,restore a not so popular phone. I did a total firmware dump and have uploaded to my 4shared folder. If anyone is interested or can tell me how to upload it here for developing i will be more than happy to share with those in need. I also have a spare phone that i would be willing to test anything made from the firmware dump i created.

Some time after rooting my Optimus Zone 3 VS425PP, I got locked into a boot loop. There are no custom ROM's, neither recovery nor OS. It's not bricked. Yet, anyway. The loading screen functions, then a little window that says "OPTIMIZING APPS 1 OF 5, PLEASE DO NOT REMOVE THE BATTERY..." appears. I've seen this before, but now, upon reaching "APP 5 OF 5," it reboots and repeats. I've tried several factory resets via the LG RECOVERY (MODIFIED,) as well as safe mode to no avail. Anyone? Anything? Help? The only recourse I can think of would be to re-flash the stock ROM, which I cannot find. Anywhere. Thanks, guys.

Unfortunately, I don't think this file is actually out there. I have REALLY been looking, even contacted the LG Development team. The LG Support Tool, etc. are not going to help you yet as they do not have the firmware on their servers yet. That's why the LG Support Tool will freeze when trying to do an Update Recovery on this phone. -- And I've tried them all: LG Mobile Support Tool, LG PC Suite, Verizon VS425PP Update Tool (from the mounted drive on the phone), LG Flash Tool 2014 to force different KDZ files. All provide nothing. All dead ends. The Optimus won't grab a COM unless it is the right signed firmware for the phone. You'll just sit there in Download Mode or in Debug mode forever with no result. We have to wait for the first update from LG from version VS425PP1 to whatever comes next so they have something to stick on their server. But...if you find something before then, please let me know! The update will eventually be released to the public. It'll probably just take a year or so.
Good thing is Wal-Mart sells these for under $12 (yes, that's right). I picked up seven of these quad-core bad boys at that deal. Just bugs the hell out of me I can't fix the one I over rooted.
this *might* be promising...

hopefully the op will chime in for insight. The 999MB isn't much good. It appears to be a RAR dump of all the partitions, perhaps made from a lglaf.py script while in download. Nevertheless, i havent found any way yet to push the firmware dump onto the phone.
I've had no luck, either.

Meanwhile, as my LG cycles endlessly through my really cool "Jolly Roger" boot animation, I stumbled across a Kyocera Hydro Wave at Walmart for $20. I snapped it up to replace the LG Optimus Zone 3. I had big plans to root it, too., but I should've researched it first. The specs are great... but one check on Cyanogen's website probably would've saved me some trouble. Not one Kyocera device is listed there. XDA thread also throws red flags-no one can get root to stick. Well, I at least learned a lesson. Next time, I plan to purposefully buy a phone that can be rooted, has been rooted, has instructions online to do so, AND has at least one custom ROM available! No wonder this thing was $20! Keep us all posted if you stumble across a bootloop fix of some kind, and I'll do the same.
here is stock recovery for this device https://www.dropbox.com/home/Apps/Flashify/VS425PP/recovery
matt4787!
Either I am unable to open that link from an Android device OR the link given is to an unshared folder? It just asks me to log in and then says 'that folder does not exist in your DropBox...' PLEASE check out the SHARE link from within your DropBox and maybe share a new folder (and drop the stock ROM in there, along with what you might've used to flash it maybe?) We'd be very grateful!

To all who have a bricked,phone this phone has an update. Download the LG software assistant and put assistant in repair mode then boot phone normally and wait a bit. Run the repair assistant and let it run. Hopefully if everything runs well as it did me. Mine is restored and running.
Just ordered one. Is there root for this phone? Unlocked bootloader or forgetaboutit?
I rooted this phone and then tried to de-bloat, but I must have deleted too much. Now when I boot all I get is "Security Error - Authentication Fail #9"
I can get to Download mode, but none of the recovery programs recognize the phone. I installed the drivers, but still nothing. Is there anything I can do?

was your phone in a "security error" loop? for some reason the software assistant won't recognize my phone. it'll identify a plugged in phone when I connect it in download mode, but the device model never shows up

Any updates on recoveries? I hate being scared of tweaking due to not having a backup .-. Anyone find something? Plz lemme know, thx! Btw kingo root 4.5 seems to have root for this phone but super sume seems to brick it. Just a heads up eace:
Hello! I apologize in advance if this is the wrong thread to be asking this. I recently bought a K7 off of craigslist. When trying to factory reset it I hit the FRP and am now stuck.
Here is what I tried so far:
1. Bypass by going to settings and adding a new user. We managed to get to settings (I could not get the "dual pane" or overview to work to run the apk) yet we managed to get to settings once. Once there I could not find any "users" button to add one too.
2. Flashing the phone. Now I'm not 100% certain I know what that means. Basically overwriting everything stored in the flash memory with new data? We attempted this with the LG flash tool. I could not find the correct kdz file for this phone. We tried using one for an LGG4 (against googles advice) Yet only got an error message with that.
3. Rooting the phone: Not confident this would even bypass the FRP but figured it might help us??? Downloaded kingroot for pc. Have not tried downloading it straight on the phone although we can't get to file manager right now so... The app, even though I don't speak chinesse, I believe is telling us to turn on USB debugging. We can not seem to get back into settings again.
The info for the phone is
Model: LG-K330
IMEI: xxxxxxxx
Any help or maybe even a "Your out of league stop trying" would be wonderful!

Thank you.
Hi! This is my first post on this amazing forum!
So, this is gonna be tough... So bare with me. As I said, this tread is about a ZTE Blade A450.
My phone is infected with Ghost Push virus. That means that the device is full with malicious software in its root, which is not removable by recovery. Once the device is connected to the internet, lots of infected, unwanted apps start downloading and installing on their own, making the device mostly unusable.
I will make a list of the things I have tried, in order to get rid of it.
1. As mentioned above, wiping data/recovery. Virus is part of the system, so it's reinstalled along with Android.
2. Tried installing Stubborn Trojan Killer. This app needs internet access to work, so when connected, the scanning and fixing procedure gets interrupted by the installation of those infected apps. No luck there.
3. Tried flashing the official ZTE update for my model through sd card. I failed, because the update I download from ZTE's support site is corrupted (can't unzip it on pc). No luck there.
Now I am in the process of trying to flash a custom ROM. I can't find anything for my device, it's not listed in CWM or TWRP too. It's seems like I am stuck and nothing works.
I need help on this one and your best advice possible!
Thanks in advance!

So my first question is, is your phone rooted? Second, is USB-Debugging enabled, and if it is, does MTK Droid Tools detect/recognize your device?
You can answer me anytime if you still need some help.

I decided to root my Galaxy S8,and im pretty uneducated on how to do those sorts of things, but there is what looked to be an very easy tutorial (snapdragon).
while following those instructions, i missed the requirement of needing adb, and so odin(prince) failed. well, i disconnected my phone. took it out of download mode.
now its forever stuck in an infinite installing system update loop.
i checked for solutions online. go to commands, a factory reset. ect ect
except i get a:
#fail to open recovery_cause(missing file)
which leads me to believe i messed up my software, no biggie, i can just fix it though oden... right?
wrong. opening oden ive come to realize i can no longer get my phone into download mode, and neither does oden recognize my phone as a well... a phone.
so im at a loss of what exactly to do.
do i go through my provider, hoping they fix the issue?
do i wait for a solution here, one i might not have the skills to accomplish?
or do i pay out the pocket to get someone to fix this thing. i really dont know

while following those instructions, i missed the requirement of needing adb, and so odin(prince) failed. well, i disconnected my phone. took it out of download mode.
now its forever stuck in an infinite installing system update loop.
i checked for solutions online. go to commands, a factory reset. ect ect
except i get a:
#fail to open recovery_cause(missing file)
which leads me to believe i messed up my software, no biggie, i can just fix it though oden... right?
wrong. opening oden ive come to realize i can no longer get my phone into download mode, and neither does oden recognize my phone as a well... a phone.
so im at a loss of what exactly to do.
do i go through my provider, hoping they fix the issue?
do i wait for a solution here, one i might not have the skills to accomplish?
or do i pay out the pocket to get someone to fix this thing. i really dont know
