Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. A quick search of XDA allowed me to find your device section here:

Bookmark that page and make sure you subscribe to that forum, within it you'll find all relevant information for your device. this thread in particular would be a really good place to start. If you have any questions in future you'll find your device-specific q&a section here:

Make sure you perform a search before creating a thread though because most likely someone else has already asked (and had answered) whatever question it is you want to ask. That's the beauty of XDA, information at your fingertips!
Best of luck with your tablet.

[Completed] Android Malware

I have an Android device that has been infected with some sort of RAT or trojan horse (I suspect AndroRAT or Adwind, but I'm not too sure). I have tried resetting it back to factory settings, but the malware is still there. Will re-flashing the stock firmware get rid of it? Even if it is embedded deep into the system or into the kernel? If this is the case, how can I get rid of it? There seems to be no powerful Android Antiviruses at the moment. I want to make sure it is 100% completely removed. All input will be greatly appreciated!

Sir,
Understand that XDA Assist is not a help desk and you are already posted 3 threads here with this one, hope is the last one.

[Completed] [Q] HTC Desire 826 Root & Lillipop ROM

Hello!
This is my first post and I'm a total noob so please bear with me :laugh:
I need advice on how to root my HTC Desire 826 safely. My friend purchased it for me from China and it came with a whole bunch of stock Bidu apps and bloatware (in Chinese). I just want to root the phone safely and install a ROM that somewhat resembles Android Lollipop.
I came across this website: (system says i can't post any websites, please google "how to root htc desire 826 tutorial"). It looked legit, and I thought this was too good to be true! And then I read some of the comments from the users and it seemed really fishy... None of them had proper English grammar, which is not a big deal, but they had names like Gary Matthews, Pete Boyle, and James McAllister...
Then, I've also read somewhere that some people might want you to install their custom ROM because they've encoded some spyware which could steal your information, and then I got really paranoid.
What should I do? I don't want to brick my phone, and I certainly don't want my security compromised. Your help is appreciated!
Thanks,

Thanks for investigating Bryanrd05! It looks like it might be a long wait

I made some investigation and it seems like there is not a confirmed working root process (or at least not by some XDA member) for your phone yet. It's have been launched recently and only in Asia markets so it might take a while. Just be pacient. About the site you tell, you can actually try, it uses Framaroot (a recognized root procedure for other devices) but i do not recommend it at all, at least until someone else with more knowledge to fix their phone in case of some damage tries it.

[Completed] [Q] Mijue P7000 plus Root advic

Hi,
I have purchased the Mijue P7000 plus (I dont know if im allowed can provide links). I have successfully rooted/flashed etc android phones over the past few years but all are "popular phones" with phone specific threads.
It is mtk 6752. Ive browsed a bit and all i can make out so far is, download application thats compatible with mtk 6752, make sure you write down imei, and follow the rooting instructions. Is there any thing i should be wary of? Anyone any experience of this phone or similar? im aware of more than one rooting software. The best rated one is on other computer and cant remember name - It was recently updated to add 6752 to its list.
As for ROM, i dont expect to ever find a custom rom for it (its currently 5.0), i just intend to make manual changes to settings. Ive still to browse for this.
Thanks for reading, hope you have some advice so i dont have a brick
Thanks

[Completed] How to flash.... L33L

Hi,
I am new to the concept of flashing my L33L (Sunset LTE version from LG). I want to move out of the version installed on the phone allowing me to use other networks. I tried to google and search for this but to no avail. I also tried to check for steps or ideas to do this on xda . If I have not done a complete search or have to post in a different forum, I would be glad to know. If there is nothing wrong there, I would like to have some helpful material to flash.
1) What are the compatible firmware for my phone(L33L) to move out of the current state of lock ?
2) What are the flash tools available to do the unlocking / firmware flash on the phone (L33L) ?
3) Are there two different s/w & tools to perform unlocking & flashing for L33L?
4) Finally, a pointer to the set of steps to do this would be helpful. I might have gone through the ones available in google but would like to know it again to confirm .
