Alright guys,
This is for everyone that is not using windows or mac.
First of all - congrats! You made the right decision by not using them. Ha-ha!
Also - Thanks to everyone that was involved in getting us the so much needed S-OFF - Developers and Testers.
Now, to get S-Off you need to go to http://revolutionary.io/
Just in case - read everything that is in there, and remember that this is a Beta release, so sh*t can go wrong.
Click on "Download For Linux" . This will download revolutionary-0.3pre7.tgz
Now open Home folder, navigate to Downloads, find the file that you just downloaded, right click, and choose "extract here".
Or if you are using the console - you need to do this:
Navigate to the Downloads folder and
Code:
tar -zxf revolutionary-0.3-pre7.tgz
Now open your terminal, and navigate to the Downloads folder. You can do that by typing
Code:
cd ~/Downloads
Once you are in there - do the following:
Code:
sudo ./revolutionary
or if you are root, just do
Code:
./revolutionary
In general, its not a very good idea to stay logged in constantly as root, so yeah.
Once you downloaded the file - it redirected you to the Generator, where you need to put in your information about the phone.
Once you run revolutionary - you can find all the information needed in there, just put in the information, click on "generate", highlight the code, right click, copy, and then go to the console, right click, paste, and hit enter.
Once you get root and everything else, it will ask you if you want to install CWM. It is important to have that, so please choose "Y".
And now you can sit back and enjoy how this is magic
[EDIT]
If you have any problems with revolutionary finding the device - please make sure that you did add the appropriate udev rules to the file /etc/rules.d/51-android.rules
To make sure that your computer sees the phone - just type
Code:
adb devices
If you see it as "??????????????" - then you do need to follow the next guide to add the udev rules.
For more information on how to do that - please follow THIS GUIDE
For more information on how to use ADB under Ubuntu - please check out THIS GUIDE
Thanks, this worked like a charm! Thank to the devs that brought this to us! I've been eagerly awaiting this, almost took my bro's MT4G just to get my flashing fix!! All I need is an AOSP Rom and I'm golden, lol
I'm getting "waiting for device..."
Is there a certain point when I need to plug in my Sensation? I'm able to mount the phone with no issues in linux, but for some reason revolutionary won't identify it.
Wow, 2 minutes with no hiccups on a UK Vodafone branded Sensation. Just carrying out a quick nandroid. Thanks for the tut, much appreciated.
Thanks, will be using this to S-OFF my Sensation when I get home later today!
Ubuntu ftw
Sent from my HTC Sensation using XDA Premium App

Did you add the add appropriate udev rules to the file /etc/rules.d/51-android.rules ?
Or with other words, when you are using adb under ubuntu - when you do adb devices - do you see your device with "?????????????" or do you see it like its really installed with numbers ?
If you havent added the udev rules - you can find more information on how to do it HERE

now i dont have ClockworkMod.
I've installed rom manager to install ClockworkMod, the romManager says that it couldnt find sudo user at /system/(x)bin/su
when im rebooting into recovery mod, it says that device is S-OFF.
to access root i found this on http://revolutionary.io/
Does Revolutionary give me root?
No. You will need to flash this zipfile from recovery.

when i tried to flash it, it says that signauture verification failed...
i've read from this page that i must install clockworkMod to disable signature verification but rom manager says "an error occured while attemting to run privileged commands!"
it seems that im in a loop...

STEP 2. To INSTALL Clockwork Recovery mod- v4.0.1.4 from Revolutionary. Issue With not charging when Device is completely switched off - DOES CHARGE WHEN HIBERNATING (SWITCHING OFF on stock rom) WITH FASTBOOT ENABLED
YOU MUST READ ABOUT THE CHARGING ISSUE in post 3 below before installing!!!!!
1. Download clockworkmod recovery by Revolutionary for the Sensation HERE:
2. Copy the PG58IMG file into the Root folder of your SD card (The main Folder of your Memory Card)
3. Turn off your phone FUlly and reboot into the Bootloader/HBOOT screen (see post above on how to get to hboot screen)
4. Press Volume up to Accept when it asks" Do you want to start the update"
5. Press Power Off to Reboot back to android after installation is successful (normal screen with homescreen)
6. Delete PG58IMG from your memory card and you can now root using step 3 below or install a custom ROM using CWM (Customs Roms are already rooted)
7. Turn the phone back on. click settings > Power > ensure fastboot is enabled (ticked). This will help you charge incase your battery dies. If you hibernate (or switch off on stock roms) with fastboot enabled your phone will still charge
IF YOUR BATTERY IS LOW, SWITCH OFF WITH FASTBOOT ENABLED TILL YOU CAN CHARGE IT (Press Hibernate (on stock Roms) or power off if you don't have hibernate)
IF YOUR PHONE BATTERY DIES WHILST YOU ARE USING IT. DO NOT POWER IT ON OR PULL THE BATTERY OUT.
Make sure you have had it on charge for at least a few minutes then turn it on as normal and continue charging
Currently with fastboot enabled when your phone dies it will hibernate. allowing you to still charge it. If you plug in your charger then switch on, it will boot back up in a few seconds as fastboot is active and it will resume from where you left off.
Turning off without fastboot means your phone will fully turn off not hibernate and your phone will not charge when turned off.
Step 3. To permanently root your Sensation - (This means you will NOT LOSE ROOT on rebooting) DOES NOT AFFECT WIFI
1. Download the file su-2.3.6.3-ef-signed.zip from here: DOWNLOAD
2. Copy su-2.3.6.3-ef-signed.zip to your SD card root folder (main folder of your memory card)
3. Start clockworkmod recovery (instructions below)
4. BACKUP YOUR ROM USING CWM BEFORE ATTEMPTING ROOT!
5. Navigate to "Backup & Restore" using the Volume Down button and press select (power button to select) then select "Backup"
6. Select "install zip from sdcard" after backing up
7. Then select "Choose zip from sdcard"
8. Then select "su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip"
9. Then select "Yes - install su-2.3.6.3-efgh-signed.zip" to confirm
10. Then go back
11. Then reboot.
12. You're rooted!

Before we start:
Here is the details of my handset
Model: Lenovo K4 note (PH) [MTK MT6753 8CORE 1.3GHZ 3.00GB RAM]
Model #: A7010a48
OSv: marshmallow 6.0
Android security patch level: April 1, 2016

Build number: A7010a48_S218_160612_ROW
Step 1:
download all necessary files.
all files and links are not mine and credit goes to the owner of the files
adb tools : https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B16daNyhWTx1djhqSkJ6QkFKaUk...
recovery(i.e TWRP) : https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B16daNyhWTx1RlB0U01sUkVHMjg...

xposed framework : https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B16daNyhWTx1QmlRTHhXOUMydDQ...
step 2:
a. back up any necessary files from your handset.
b. since some computers doesn't show your lenovo k4 note while on recovery mode, it is imperative to put aroma file manager and supersu on your sd card. "do not extract. just copy them as it is"
take note that the next step will definitely hard reset your device.
step 3:
a. enable developer option on your handset. go to system settings/about and click build 7x or as it says "you are now a developer"
b. go to developer option do this two things
enable oem unlock
allow usb debugging
c. once you are done please connect your device to your laptop
step 4:
a. run adb server (go to adb folder, shift+right mouse click and choose open command window here.
b. it will prompt you to allow your pc to connect/control your devices just click YES
c. on your command window, type ADB DEVICES (it will detect your lenovo k4 note)
d. once detected type ADB REBOOT-BOOTLOADER (your device will reboot)
e. once rebooted, type FASTBOOT DEVICES to verify if you are already in fastboot mode
f. if connected proceed to step 5. if not please repeat procedure
step 5:
a. once connected go to adb folder on your computer. you will see a file named unlock recovery.bat
if not, copy this text
call adb.exe devices
call adb.exe reboot bootloader
call fastboot.exe getvar all
call fastboot.exe oem unlock
call fastboot.exe format userdata
call fastboot.exe erase recovery
call fastboot.exe flash recovery recovery/recovery.by.gursewak.img
call fastboot.exe getvar all
call fastboot.exe reboot
echo done successful please press any key to continue
echo disconnect your phone and press power button untill phone reboots
pause
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
to notepad and save as batch file, name it as UNLOCK_RECOVERY.bat
b. click the UNLOCK_RECOVERY.BAT then it will ask you on your device to confirm, (will add screen shot later on) just press volume up button
c. once the process has been done, (will take few seconds) extract recovery.img to adb folder
d. go to your previously opened command window and type
FASTBOOT FLASH RECOVERY RECOVERY.IMG (the one you extracted)
step 6:
a. once flashed, disconnect your device (it will show a tiny text telling you transmission ok)
b. press and hold the power button for few seconds to turn off the device
IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT YOU WON'T TURN ON THE DEVICE UNLESS THE NEXT STEPS ARE DONE. IF YOU ACCIDENTALLY TURNED ON YOUR DEVICE REPEAT TO STEP 1.
c. press and hold vol up+vol down+ powerbutton simultaneously for few seconds, once you felt a vibration, release power button whilst still holding the vol up and down button
it will show the lenovo screen then go black. (don't worry it means you successfully flashed recovery.img)
d. connect the device to your computer
if lenovo shows on your device, now is the time to recopy aroma file manager and supersu. if not just wait for the screen to turn back on.
e. once twrp recovery is on, go to mount and check SYSTEM. (do not touch anything aside what i unstructed)
d. go back to previous menu and go to install
install aroma file manager and wait for it to finish
f. once installed it will go directly to aroma file manager, go to system folder and scroll down. look for recovery-from-boot.p and delet it
g. once deleted exit aroma file manager (button can be found on right corner)
h. go back and install beta supersu which you copied. (browse sd card)
i. once flashed, reboot system,
step 7:

WELL I WAS FORCED TO ROOT MY K4 NOTE JUST TO PLAY POKEMON GO.
I WILL UPLOAD SCREEN SHOT ONCE I ALREADY COMPILED THEM. THANK YOU
IF YOU LIKE AND HELPED YOU A LOT PLEASE HIT THANKS AND LEAVE A MSG.
IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, JUST COMMENT IT HERE.
Thanks it worked. I was about to complain when twrp recovery does not show up. BUT IT WORKED THANKS
xposed isn't necessary to root the phone. Am I right? Maybe you should explain that in the OP. You'll get people confused down the road if they don't already know what they're flashing.

Thanks:cyclops:

hi
will it erase internal phone memory (i mean after flushing ROM can i get my data using any recovery software)
i am also using same s219 Rom model lenovo k4 note phone.
Actually i deleted some files unexpectedly from internal memory but i want them back, so i tried many ways but no software is identifying internal memory as a drive. I tried to root using root apps but marshmallow not allowing.
i found this topic, but i have only doubt is after flushing the rom can i recover my data using any recovery software?
Thanks in advance
thank you so much!
now to answer some queries and give thanks...
@Duffy144: glad you like it.
@Bdwilk: thank you for the input, i will do that.
@infected_162k: i haven't tried yet since i haven't been able to check latest OTA, but i will try it now since s218 causes lag and memory leak when using facebook messenger. and as you've said. thanks for the confirmation for s219, at least i am more confident. btw, does this really solve the memory leak of the s218?
@anvesh.k yes it will delete all files as the procedure requires you to factory reset your handset.
Rooted K4 Marshmallow
Damn. Finally. I got root. Can finally get rid of that Cell Broadcast. Thanks Sir ansei. The unlocking of bootloader, flashing of twrp and supersu process is pretty much straight forward and will only take you about less than 10 minutes.
Am not sure if this is a systemless root i have. If so, it's great. I am on S_219. Zero performance or stability issues.
I feel my K4 Note runs smoother and snappier compared to S150 row. Still getting the hang of the revamped user interface though.
Overall, Marshmallow 6.0 S_219 runs great with unlocked bootloader, twrp and supersu.
Can someone confirm if this works with 2 gb / 32 variant?

Amm, about that memory leak thing, i basically know what that is cause it was a huge problem in my father's phone(gionee m3). But i exactly don't know how to know if it's still there or not as I use messenger hardly 2-3 times a week. guide me about this so I can tell you exactly.
Another thing that will help other users: I have to factory reset my phone due to a google error ( unable to communicate with Google server). I was not sure about root and xposed will be gone or not. But here is the result : lost both, root and xposed. Just flashed both again, super su and xposed framwork, worked

Old data? Not sure what you are referring to. After the unlocking of bootloader, flashing or twrp and root, restarted the phone in normal mode. Went through the setup wizard and all. Reinstalled my usual stuff. Back to where I left in Lollipop. Zero issues with Marshmallow 6.0 S_219.
Sir Ansei, everything is fine except 1 minor issue, when rebooting to TWRP, I often get the black screen. Power cycling the phone works. Any ideas?

May be what he trying to tell is he accidentally deleted some of his important stuff and now he wants to get it back with the apps that use root to dig around. But as per my experience, it only work if that portion of sd card of internal storage is stayed untouched not if overwritten by something else. But if you already rooted, just give it a try...maybe you'll be lucky...

call fastboot.exe flash recovery recovery/recovery.by.gursewak.img - needs to be edited? make sure path is correct and image name.
call fastboot.exe flash recovery recovery.img
Just put recovery.img in the same folder
I cannot get fastboot to recognize my device & perform the bootloader unlock. Whenever I type in " adb reboot bootloader" or click on that "unlock_recovery.bat" file, I get booted into a dark screen where "fastboot" is written at the bottom & the command prompt window says < waiting for device> & I am stuck there until I reboot my phone.
Please tell how to get past this!

1.UNLOCKING THE BOOTLOADER
!If the phone perfoms a bootloader unlock, a factory reset will be perfomed automatically. So you will have to backup your data to a sdcard or to the pc.!
Step 1.1 and 1.4 are hanging together. They can be skipped with no worries, but I would recommend to do it. !THIS IS NOT A FULL BACKUP!
1.1 [OPTIONAL]BACKING UP PHONE SETTINGS:
1.1.1 Download and install Hisuite on your pc: http://consumer.huawei.com/minisite/HiSuite_en/
1.1.2 Connect your pc with your phone
1.1.3a If you see a pop up like this,then choose transfer files and skip Step 1.1.3b
1.1.3b Go to your Notifications on your phone. There will be a settings notification. Press on it and select File transfer via USB.
1.1.4 On your phone go to Settings -> Security & privacy -> More -> and turn on allow Hisuite to use HDB (image)
1.1.5 The phone may ask you to trust the pc. Select always trust this pc (image)
1.1.6 Go to settings -> System -> About phone -> and press about 10 times on the build number.
1.1.7 Go to settings -> System -> Developer Options -> and turn on USB debugging (image)
1.1.8 Open Hisuite on pc
1.1.9 Choose Backup and select everything. Don't password protect it.
1.2 OBTAINING THE UNLOCK CODE
Everything you see below in pink does not work anymore since Huawei has officially stopped providing the bootloader unlock code on their website.
Instead please use this thread for obtaining your bootloader unlock code: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-7x/how-to/how-to-unlock-huawei-bootloader-removal-t3780903
1.2.1 Go to this website and press Unlock
1.2.2 Register a huawei id or login
1.2.3 Follow the steps until you see this page
1.2.4 Choose Since Emui 5.0
1.2.5 Fill out the rest of the information. (The IMEI can be found at settings -> System -> About Phone)
1.2.6 Press Commit. If every info was put in correct, A yellow message should appear saying: "Your unlocking password is: ..." Copy the code somewhere safe on your pc.
1.3 UNLOCKING THE BOOTLOADER
1.3.1 Download Minimal ADB and fastboot for your operating system. For windows 32 and 64bit: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=746010030569952951
1.3.2 install and open the folder where you installed it to.
1.3.3 Run fastboot.exe and adb.exe once
1.3.4 Go to Settings -> System -> developer options turn on OEM unlocking. If you do not have developer options do step 1.1.6 and come back to 1.3.4.
1.3.5 Connect your phone with the pc and turn on USB Debbuging(Step 1.1.7) and file transfer via adb(Step 1.1.3b) on your phone
1.3.6 On your pc go to the folder where you have installed adb. Open a CMD Windows at this folder(For Windows hold leftshift and press right click. Then choose open cmd from this folder)
1.3.7 Make sure that usb debugging is still enabled. In CMD: type adb devices -> hit enter. It should say your serial number with the status "device" (image)
If that is not the case, check if 1.USB Debugging is enabled 2. Allow Transfer files in Notifications.
1.3.8 type in CMD adb reboot bootloader. Your device will reboot into the bootloader.
1.3.9 It should say FRP Unlock and PHONE locked.
If FRP is locked and green, you did not enable oem unlock. => Hold the power button to reboot and go back to step 1.3.4
1.3.10 type in CMD fastboot oem unlock code replace code with the number from Step 1.2.6. Hit enter.
1.3.11 A window will pop up asking you if you want to unlock the bootloader. !Pressing yes will void your warranty and perform a factory reset deleting all personal data on internal storage.! With your volume up and down keys navigate to yes and press the power button to proceed. Your device will automatically reboot and perform a factory reset and reboot again.
1.3.12 Put in all your information, so that the phone is fully usable again
[OPTIONAL]1.4 REAPLYING PHONE SETTINGS
1.4.1 Repeat Step 1.1.2, 1.1.3, 1.1.4, 1.1.5, 1.1.6, 1.1.7 and 1.1.8
1.4.2 In Hisuite press restore and choose the backup you have created in Step 1.1.9
2.FLASHING AND SETTING UP TWRP
2.1 FLASHING TWRP
2.1.1 Set a pin for your phone if you have not (lockscreen). Go to this thread and download stf-twrp-zxz-0.3.img and this kernel
2.1.2 Move both .img to your folder, where you have installed adb
2.1.3 Do Step 1.3.5, 1.3.6, 1.3.7 and 1.3.8
2.1.4 It should say FRP Unlock and PHONE Unlocked(image) => Step 2.1.5 . If Phone is locked and green, you did not unlock your bootloader => Step 1.3.
2.1.5 in CMD type fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk stf-twrp-zxz-0.3.img => hit enter.
2.1.6 type fastboot reboot in CMD to reboot. Do not close CMD window and do not unplug phone from pc if you continue with 2.2.

2.2.1 Do Step 1.3.5, 1.3.6, 1.3.7
2.2.2 in CMD type adb reboot recovery_ramdisk => hit enter
2.2.3 wait for it to boot. It will ask you for a password. You can choose whatever you want. I would recommend you use your PIN to unlock your phone. REMEMEBER IT!
2.2.4 Then this screen will appear. Swipe to allow modifications.
2.2.5 Press Reboot -> System and do not install the twrp app.
2.2.6a If your on screen buttons and flash are working skip step 2.2.6b
2.2.6b If your on screen buttons are not working => connect phone to pc and connect with adb correctly. In CMD press adb reboot bootloader to reboot into the bootloader. Then flash the custom kernel in CMD , by pressing fastboot flash kernel KERNEL_B360a_TOUCH_FIX.img and hit enter to flash. Then reboot your phone with fastboot reboot
2.2.7 !Read through this whole thread to check which functions of TWRP are working and which not!
3. ROOTING WITH MAGISK
3.1.1 Download Magisk v-16.0 from here and the uninstaller from here.
3.1.2 Connect phone with PC. Activate file transfer via USB in Notifications. Move the Magisk-v16.0.zip and uninstaller.zip to the root of your internal storage or sdcard on your phone.
3.1.3 Do Step 1.3.5, 1.3.6 and 1.3.7 . Type in cmd adb reboot recovery_ramdisk => hit enter.
3.1.2 Type in your password from Step 2.2.3. Press on Install. Select the storage where you put both .zip from Step 3.1.2. Search and press on Magisk-v16.0.zip. Swipe to flash. Then press on reboot to System.

Yes I'm sorry that I am replying so late.
So noone really knows if it is going to come back, but here's what you can do:
1: Go to this site. Scroll down. Choose your country. Call the hotline. Give them the required info. They will send you the unlock-code via Email. I tried it with the German Number and they send it to me without a problem.
2: Try emailing the support from Honor or Huawei.
3: Try out this Thread. You will have to pay about 4 EUR ($5).

Try calling different phone numbers. Some are willing to give you the unlock and some not. I think they also don't know whats really going on with the site etc. But as of right now the 3 ways mentioned above, are the only ways to get the unlock code. Maybe the Unlock site at https://emui.huawei.com/ will come back some time.
Thank you for writing this tutorial, it's really helpful to have all steps in one place to know what to do.
If you could include how to revert back to the locked bootloader with stock firmware, that can be sent back to Huawei for warranty repairs, that would be great!
Best,

1. Go this thread and download the Mount-Magisk.zip
2. Move it somewhere to your phone. (If you are unable to boot to system connect phone to PC. Reboot phone to twrp. Open a adb window on the PC. In twrp go to advanced. Start the adb sideload. Press on cancel and then on back. Move the Mount-Magisk.zip into your adb folder on the pc. In the cmd type adb push Mount-Magisk.zip /external_sd or which ever path you like. )
3. Boot to twrp.
4. Go to Install and choose the Mount-Magisk.zip . Flash it. After flash press on back.
5. Go to Advanced -> File Manager. At the very top/root of your system should now be a folder called Magisk. Open the folder. The next folders also should include your Modules. Hold the folder of the module and delete it.
6. Reboot and everything should be fixed.
Let me know if it worked! :good:
Just to let everyone know. The unlock page is back. :highfive::laugh::laugh::laugh: Happy Unlocking :good::victory::victory::victory:

So if I unlock bootloader, and then root my device then i won't receive any OTA update anymore... but how can I deal with this situation in order to re-lock when it's OTA time and unlock again when I got it?
ps. No OTA means only no firmware or it means also no security patches ??

In case of Honor devices, to a certain point you are still getting ota updates. To check on the newest updates download the app Huawei Firmware Finder. Then follow the HuRUpdate Thread to update to the newest firmware without unrooting.

Hi! I'm currently attempting to complete step 2.1, but I've run into a problem.. I've completed all the 1.-steps and added the twrp & kernel img-files to the adb folder, but when I attempt to use cmd fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk stf-twrp-zxz-0.3.img, I just get the response waiting for any device, and then nothing else happens. Any suggestions?
Preparation:
1. A memory card
2. One computer, and the spreadtrum driver has been installed (how to determine whether the driver has been installed, in fastboot mode to see whether there are unrecognized devices in the device manager can be).
3. The phone is in debugging mode
Start work:
1. Download duoqin1splus. rar, extract the duoqin1splus. rar and copy updata.zip to the local directory for backup;
2. Connect the phone to the computer (make sure there is a memory card inside!), uncompress DuoQin1SPlusRecovery. Rar, run runme.bat;
3. The phone will automatically enter fastboot, restart and enter the Recovery mode. Press "8" to enter the main interface of Recovery (don't double clear!Do not double clear!There is no Recovery mode to resume the previous step!;
4. Select "Apply update from external storage." select "update.zip" to copy to the memory card.
5. After the brush is finished, it is forbidden to double clean; select "reboot system" directly;
6. Wait for restart to enter the interface.
If you need to reset the phone, please go into the Settings to restore the factory Settings after the phone starts up normally. I will not be responsible for the repair of the jammed screen caused by double clear. Remind yourself not to listen. It's your own business.
Issues to note:
1. This kind of thing is mostly made out of feelings (yes, mobile phone has been repaired 2 times, and this test will be repaired again).Do not use for commercialization, once found, I will pursue the responsibility of commercial pirates.
2. After starting up each time, the recovery of the mobile phone will be restored to the official recovery. If you have other needs for using the mobile phone, please follow the steps in the beginning work and start over again.
3. Once the system is modified, ota update cannot be installed, please note;
4. Swiping machine is risky, please be careful.

So sorry reply you too late. Your could press the power button when your phone hold on the fastboot mode. If you can't enter in the recovery mode, may be your adb.exe is using or derive of fastboot has some problems. Please check and fix them.
The source page in Chinese and the origin flash programs was updated. it may solve your problems.

I had updated some new packages to solution the problem about the OTA updated after cracked phone, and you can view the source page to find them.
If your phone version is not in list on the source page, please recover to the recently official system and crack phone again.
By the way, you can make a package to delete the PackageInstaller.odex and put a new PackageInstaller.apk which is download from Google official and the app's file name is not same with the preset PackageInsatller.apk, after that, Using the cracked recovery to install the package, OTA update will be normal and phone could install any application also. (App must support Andriod 4.4.4).
Thanks!

Do not worry. If your phone is under the bootloader (fastboot mode), just long press the button of power, and waiting for device to reboot to the phone desktop. The drive of bootloader (fastboot mode) which has not been installed well may cause that.
And i'm sorry to tell you that the accessibility function is disabled in this phone, so the talkback tool may not be available. but i helped you to feedback this question to DuoQin official support. before official solve it, may be there has another way to solve this problem when the phone has rooted.
I had updated all file in Mega. and you can download it from this url: https://mega.nz/#F!64VV1IQB!k3F1pQCcT3W94fUblPH7eA. Hope it's will help you.
