Need help with rooting a chinese tablet purchased on Wish - General Questions and Answers

Hello fellows,
I have recently purchased a chinese tablet on wish (https://www.wish.com/product/5b3ec76c3b2908146fead685), and I would like to root it, obviously.
The specifications listed on the description page are far from what I got. (yeah, found out the hard way about counterfeit chinese stuff)
Here is what I was expecting:
Specification:
Operating system: Android 6.0
Color: Black/Gold / White (optional)
CPU: MT6592, eight cores, clocked at 2Ghz
GPU: Mali-400
Operating Memory (RAM): 4G DDR3
Body memory: 64G Nand-Flash (can use the capacity of less than this value, because the mobile phone software space)
Maximum storage expansion: MicroSD (TF) 64G

Operating system: Android 6.0

Shell material: plastic shell
Operating Memory (RAM): 4G DDR3
Body memory: 64G Nand-Flash (can use the capacity of less than this value, because the mobile phone software space)
Memory Size-ROM :64GB ROM (internal storage+ tablet storage+ system used some storage),about 12.4GB can use
Maximum storage expansion: MicroSD (TF) 64G
Network mode: GSM / WCDMA / TD-SCDMA
Network frequency: 850/900/1800/1900 / 2100GHZ
Support SIM card quantity: dual card dual standby

Life: 3-4 hours of life, music 10 hours
Input voltage: DC 5V
Body size: 235 * 165 * 10mm
So at first glance, it looks like a pretty good deal for a ~135$ CDN tablet.
The real specs are far from this however.
After installing various apps, I managed to find out it had a MTK6580 CPU instead of MTK6592. I dunno if it's an 8 cores or 4 cores. Most apps list it as an 8 cores, clocked at 1500mhz. However, one app, I don't remember which one, said it was 4 cores. So I'm not quite sure.
After digging a lot online trying to find out what manufacturer it was, trying to find a custom rom for it, I managed to stumble upon a site which gather specs for android devices, and I found out exactly the one I have.
http://specdevice.com/showspec.php?id=fd87-fc73-ffff-ffffd2fc91ac&lang=en
Actually, it might be mine, as I also had ordered a 256gb microsd card on wish, and turns out it's also counterfeit, and not 256gb at all.
Fortunately, I was reimbursed for both.
The tablet itself isn't all that bad, and if I were able to root it, it could actually be useful, if I could remove some bloat and manage startup programs and so on, maybe overclock it a bit, etc.. The thing is, it got 1gb ram.
So I dunno if you guys know anything about this tablet, but while looking online, I found out quite a few people bought it, on wish, amazon, etc.. some have made youtube videos about it, warning others of the scam (specifications not matching the product real specs)
I also found that it seems to be a knockoff of this tablet, an overmax qualcore 1027 3g (https://www.ov.overmax.eu/en/product/qualcore-1027-3g)
I hope I provided all the informations you guys need to give me a hand with this, I would highly appreciate!
Thanks!

Anyone have any clues?

Without any helpful information such as your tablet's brand there's nothing the community can do to help.
Also if you want to 'repair' the rom you have to reflash the rom from the manufacture's website.

GDIPPO M7 Tablet

Recently purchased this tablet online. Pretty happy with it, aside from an issue I posted about in another thread.

Did you make a full backup before flashing the ROM?
Do you have a recovery you can get back to?
If you have the above just use the button combo for your phone to get back to recovery and flash back your stock rom.
If you don't have the above then I don't know what you can do.
Good luck.
Thanks for answering, I didn't made a backup but I will get the same phone for 2-3 days so I could use it, right? Can you explain how to do that in details?

I didn't like the ROM, so I tried to flash one I downloaded from here on this site. According to Smart Phone Flash Tool, I have a MT6580 chip set. I first flashed a ROM and it didn't even turn on. I downloaded another ROM and now it turns on, but I can't use my touch screen. I've read that I need the stock ROM to fix this. I can't find the stock ROM. Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks for any advice in advance

I'm really not sure what you have specifically and I was unsuccessful in locating your device but, you should be able to obtain some member guidance within one of the following threads that's specific to Mediatek devices.

There's other possibilities but, those should give you a good start... :thumbup:
