Hello,
I have an old polaroid dual sim , it's not working very well so I'd like to speed it up by placing a custom rom on it. Unfortunately XDA doesn't have any relevant info about roms for this phone.
If anyone knows more about this phone or where to find the things i'm looking for, I'd be very glad.
Thanks in advance

Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. Unfortunately low spec and low popularity devices like this just don't usually have ROMs developed for them, I can't find anything at all for this particular device. I found a thread that claims to be able to root Polaroid devices here:
Polaroid All in One - Root, Un-Root, Play Store, Should work on other devices
You could try that, but I can't say whether it's going to work or not, so it'll be trial and error. And please be aware that attempting an unknown method like this can be quite dangerous as the outcome is unknown, and stock firmware doesn't seem to be readily available to repair your phone in the case that something goes wrong.
Good luck!
Thread closed, thanks.

Device info: http://www.bidwelltec.com/nb7850-s/
Will you please help gather support from developers for the NB7850 S. I couldn't find any sites supporting this device by independent developers. I have already sent an email to the site email form, so please don't overload them with requests, just wondering if we could gather interest and support for this device, the stock ROM is already laggy and hard to root or even using sometimes with the way they have this ROM set up. Please help, I am in stock ROM H.E.Double hockey sticks.
Thank you to anyone who can help me root this device and get a recovery flashed and !maybe guide me on developing for this device. I am so lost when it co!es to Android developmemt and would appreciate any help I can get to demystify this. I like to write easy to follow noob related articles so help me, to help you. LoL thank you everyone. ?:good:

Hi, sorry to say but it appears to be a bit of a white box brand so it's unlikely to gain support due to it being unknown and present in many variants of the device.
You would be better to look around for ROMs that support specific components in the device in order to have better luck as their will be similar devices using the same components with one of them probably having a ported ROM such as CM
Hope I could help and good luck

root genius worked for me literally just rooted a few minutes ago took me forever to find one that worked
http://www.shuame.com/en/root/
Root Genius worked for me also
Lot of applications that require root access work fine. Now, how do I do a Nandroid backup? Also, anybody know tried a custom ROM on this device? Hesitant to "just try it" until I have a full Nandroid backup.
I have one of these. Got it for $59.95 on sale via Staples website. A curious thing is that none of the preloaded apps show under My apps and the Store won't automatically update any of them. I had to look them up on the Store and install the latest versions.
Hello Guys, First time poster here. I have been scouring the internet for the past few days looking for some solutions, and found that XDA was the best place for android users to congregate and give help and opinions.:highfive:
First off, let me start off by saying that I am a complete android noob when it comes to messing around with rooting and flashing. So pardon if some of the things I say come across as foolish.
My girlfriend bought me what she thought was an original iphone 5s on her recent trip to China where she was teaching English. Little did she know that she got fooled into buying what I now found out is a Goophone i5s MF353zp/a. :crying:Since I want to keep the phone since she did get it for me as a nice gesture, I am trying to get it to run a regular android 4.2.2 jelly bean or better, without all the iphone icons and iphone crap. Also the phone did not come with playstore so I cannot download apps that I would use on a regular basis. Also most of the stuff is in Chinese and I just want to be able to use it as a regular android phone. I read up on roms, and rooting and flashing, but if someone could tell me the best way to go about getting a regular android version on the phone along with google play store, It would be much appreciated.
Thanks for reading my long post. Be Safe. Cheers :good:

Thanks for your reply. Are you sure about this? Because it is currently running 4.2.2 with an ios skin from what I could read on the internet.
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. There is not much information about your device on XDA but I did find these which may help:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449981
http://www.xda-developers.com/goophone-i5-unboxed-the-xda-way-xda-developer-tv/
I'm not that familiar with the Goophone but I believe you'll want to know the what I believe is the processor number, it starts with MTK followed by 4 numbers. Before you do anything see if you can find that and then ask in the threads linked. If all else fails ask in this forum, http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help
Good luck!

Thanks buddy. I'll check out the links you gave. :good: I might have come across the links before, but I was too scared to try something since I did not want to brick the phone. As for the processor number, I came across MT6572, if that's the one. I can't find anything with MTK. Appreciate your help in this. :fingers-crossed:
Yes, it was my mistake on the MTK. It's MT. I'll close this thread then.
I have been searching, reading, and attempting everything I could find to fix this tablet for night and days. Some root/busybox detectors/verifiers gave me different results. Before this I knew nothing about this world so i'm a real greenhorn here. All I know so far is my device is rooted because of build no. V2.0.1.JRO03C.user.root.20131219. Afterwards some apps tell me I'm rooted and some told me no. I'm afraid something went terribly wrong with the files. I can't unroot,flash a new recovery, install adb, pretty much nothing works. All the apps I've tried told me an unknown bootloader. I just want to either return the tablet to original factory default or take control of the thing. This is the info I gathered from settings>about :
Model NX007HD8G
Android V. 4.1.1
Kernel 3.0.8
Serial no. YF031412173
And the build number above
At the moment I don't know what other info you guys might need so forgive me if I'm not thorough. Please, help me take control of my device.
Hi,
Thanks for using XDA assist.
Although there are some guides that could help you solve your problem, none of them seem to have working links for you to download and use.
Because of this, I would recommend posting in the Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum. Please note that in order to post, you will need to create a XDA account.
Good Luck! - gsstudios
hello
I appreciate the pointer. as you can see, im officially a XDA rookie member,proudly. Very much admire the things you guys do here on your spare time. When I first came upon this site, i knew right away this is a huge community, well accomplished and highly respected. That is why when I came to a dead end, this was my first pick.
Hope to see you again,

Going to Q&A forum
Hi everyone! I have hugely research on all forums and google also but I'm afraid it does not exist . But that does not prevent me either my question here hoping that this is the right place to find answers to my question. That is my question from above, Is there a CUSTOM ROM for Archos 55 Platinum? if yes which one ? I'll take it

Hi,
I'm looking for something similar, I didn't found the stock firmware - Archos doesn't provide it and don't want to provide it (For unknown reason)
If anyone have it, I'm interrested to have it ( I brick my device )
Thank you,

How about you just go ahead and ask whatever it is you need to know, what are you having problems with?

Hi,
With the program "Debloater" deleted all google services from my phone, and a lot more.
So I can not start a "recovery mopus" because the services are deleted.
From the archos support you can find or get no answer:
I must and would like another Android version to flashen the phone, since the 5.1 android version is infected with a virus.
I need the full help to a different android version to play / new firmware or synonymous flash.
How do I do it, and what do I need it for?
Archos support gives very little information how to do that. The phone is new and too bad to throw it into the garbage. Especially since I'm not rich and I can not buy a new phone.
Please for your help and thanks for their effort

It depends on if the stock firmware for your device has been made available to the public, to find if it is available, do a Google search for:
"Return to stock (your model number)"
If that doesn't find anything then your firmware isn't available and you'll have a hard time finding anything. You'll have to put something together from similar devices and modify it to work on yours, if you aren't a developer with extensive knowledge then chances are you won't be able achieve this.

Hi everyone,
I have recently come into an interesting and quite difficult problem to solve. I am not sure if I can solve it, but I figured I would pose the question. The tablet is an Ematic EGQ223BL . Someone gave it to me saying something was wrong with the touch screen. However, after doing some research, it seems that someone has flashed it with the wrong ROM which has resulted in the tablet booting up, but with no support for touch. The tablet is a 5.1.1 Lollipop and the website has no ROM for this device. Nowhere else seems to have it either. I would love to save the tablet because the reviews are 4 stars given it is generic. I am a Techie, so I would like to see it return to it's original glory if at all possible. Does anyone have links to a stock ROM for this device? She said she wanted it to be rooted and it came back to her like this. The ROM it was flashed with has a start screen that simply says "Tablet PC moving Forward" I was able to find a way to get into the recovery, but it does no good when I try to flash it. I use an SD card, I apply the update, and then I get an error. I am thinking because I cannot get into development options. TBH, I don't know what to do at this point. Should I chuck it in the garbage with the rest of the dinosaur tech, or is it redeemable? Thanks in advance!:good:
