ROOT Wiko Highway Star 4G - General Questions and Answers

Hi all.
I've been trying to get Root access to my Wiko Highway Star 4G for a while, but yet haven't found a method to do that.
The phone got the update from Android KitKat 4.4.4 to Android Lollipop 5.1 in September.
I had the phone rooted previously, by using a piece of software called KingoRoot (not KingRoot), but I removed root access before upgrading the OS, because apparently the update via FOTA would not be available if root permissions were granted.
But after the update, KingoRoot is not capable of rooting the phone anymore. I've tried all the methods listed on XDA, but none of them got positive results.
If anyone had a clue on how to root the phone, I'd be very grateful.

Yeppa, hehe..
Nice device so far. Been migrating from another MT6752 device (mlais m52), but build quality of the Wiko is way better.
Being able to root it would be great, I hope someone comes along with a solution to our little problem

After someone mentioned it on MyDealz, I tried KingRoot today - and it worked!
Dunno if they have anything changed. I tried yesterday with KingRoot (and other tools) without luck. The only thing I changed on my side: I factory-resetted my phone this morning. Maybe this helped..

reset helps! rooted!

In youtube you can find a Video In Spanish but is TWRP and CWM for Wiko Highway Star and Lanix Ilium L1100 (Are the same devices but Wiko for Europe and Lanix for Latin America) the youtube user that upload the video is Rudr3s, if you can search the video in spanish is better for find very fast, write a tittle like this: Descargar TWRP para Lanix Ilium L1100 y Wiko Highway Star (Put the captions in English by Translate)

Bad idea this video !! It just kill my phone... Boot loop + when you link your phone to your computer the phone can't be turned off.

That damn tablet was brought to me by a friend from my office. There were many Chinese system software in the rom. So I decided to flash a new fresh firmware to clean up it.
I started by rooting it 1st. Then tried to flash CWM recovery and BAM!.. A very nice bootloop
I started to search and flash many roms for a week. Finally this rom is worked on this tablet. I think it was a luck for me. :highfive:
Thank you for your share…

[Q] Questions about a Galaxy S4 Mini Clone?

Recently i bought a Galaxy S4 Mini clone (From China) off eBay and it's been doing pretty well, until recently. The phone has gotten progressively slower and can't handle many tasks at a single time, where as my old android phone (running 2.3 ) could handle multiple tasks at a time without even batting an eyelash. The current clone i have is running Android 4.2.2 and has exactly 1024 MB of Ram, and on average, due to background tasks (Rough 90 MB of ram) and what is allotted to run 4.2.2 (Roughly 0.98 GB of RAM) the phone only has about 25-30 MB of free RAM at any given time. I figure this might be what is causing the phone to slow down, and seemingly freeze on almost every task i give it, even when it is just one thing that is being done at a time. Now, Here are my questions, I saw an article on how android 4.4 can run well using only 512 MB of RAM, and was wondering if this update could be applied to my S4 Mini Clone since it has 1024 MB of RAM? Is this even doable? And if so, where could i search for a ROM or update to 4.4? If nothing can be done, or if my ideas won't work, i'm open to any suggestions and am willing to give any information that might be needed to help.
Also i was able to successfully root the phone using a guide i found here, if that is helpful in anyway.

If you are rooted uninstall some system bloatwares using ES file explorer (Be careful while uninstalling system apps) then try Clean Master and also Greenify
Thanks for replying I'll try it out a other issue I have is notification or not coming only comes when I open the app

[Completed] Alcatel Shine Lite (AKA Optus X Sleek) Rooting/CMW/TWRP etc...

Hello
This is my first post so I'm sorry if I miss out on some things.
I recently bought a Alcatel Shine Lite (Optus X Sleek) about 2 weeks ago and about 2 days ago I looked into rooting it so I could run Kali Nethunter for some pentesting. However after a decent 2 days worth of downloading root programs (King Root, iRoot, Framaroot, dr.fone etc...), looking for CWM and TWRP recoveries, and trying to find the bootloader via Alcatel and Optus's website (Optus is useless imo) even a custom ROM for the phone has all led to dead ends.
I was just wondering if there was anything that I was missing out on at all, or if maybe someone else had better luck than me or even if someone could help me root the phone.
Phone Specs/details:
Phone Name: Alcatel Shine Lite/ Optus X Sleek

Q88 noob looking for ROM

I am new to rooting Android devices as well as this form. I am using a cheap Chinese q88 tablet for practice until I'm ready to try it on my real phone. I would like to flash a ROM onto this device but cannot find one that is compatible. Is there an eficient way to search for a compatible ROM or does anybody know of one off hand?
model: Q88
processor: quad core A33
android version: 4.4.2
firmware: v2.1
kernel version: 3.4.39
and one more general follow-up question, now that I have rooted my device successfully what do I do with it? All internet advice says the best way to see Improvement is to install a ROM, hence, the first part of this question.

Hi,
how to root the q88 device ?
