Rooting ZTE V790

After series of serching, I was able to root zte V790 through the help of a chinese forum:

bbs.hiapk.com/thread-4620917-1-1.html :good:

Tools to Download

1. Download drivers.

mediafire.com/?f7h1f7i7skggmtg

2. Download V790 Root Tool

pan.baidu.com/share/link?shareid=379900&uk=255085915

DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BRICK / RUIN YOUR PHONE IN ANY WAY. THE FOLLOWING ARE THE STEPS I HAVE FOLLOWED TO SUCCESSFULLY ROOT MY ZTE V790

Procedures:

1.Extract and Install all drivers in the computer.

2.Turn Off the phone and take the sim card out.

3.Turn on the phone. Ensure that the battery is not less than 50%.

4.Plug the usb cable from phone to computer. Ensure that the phone USB debugging is ticked.(Home>Settings>Developer options>USB Debugging). Phone USB computer connection should be "connected as an installer", this can be done by unticking Media device MTP or Camera PTP.

5.Run the Root Tool.exe. (Note that this is in chinese but there are few english words just Follow on screen prompts. It will automatically detect the phone if the drivers are installed correctly)

6.Phone will restart after the process is completed. (Whole process take about 2 to 5 minutes)

7.Once the phone has turned on, You can now see the Superuser icon and Root explorer. Congratulations, you are now rooted.:highfive:

If unsuccessful, repeat all the steps.

Hit Thanks.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamotxda:
Some tips:

1) If the device is not recognised in the root tool. Install JoinMe as well, it contains another USB driver.

2) If you are stuck in ZTE logo or "waiting for device", just enable an option in Windows Update to automatically search and install device drivers. Windows will ask this when you select 'Trouble shooting' if installing drivers fails.

3) You may need to install USB drivers in total three times from: ZTE USB driver, JoinMe and Windows Update.

My ZTE v790 still gets stuck in ZTE Logo.

I'm using XP and it's online.

English version of ROM for v90

Hello

is there any English version ROM for v790? I have bought zte v790, android 2.3.6 and unfortunately there is plenty of useless applications in Chinese, as well as Chinese system communicates and the worst thing is that the browser is very difficult to get Google or any proper websites like facebook for example. I can do root and thank you for the instruction but then i will need to install ROM in english version. Is there any way to get English version for v790?

Thank you!

Found the fix to getting stuck at ZTE Logo!

Hi guys,

Like Furiku, i kept getting stuck at the ZTE Logo when attempting the steps from the OP.

After doing some research, i found another spanish-language guide that included the Moto Helper drivers. Installing the drivers did the trick.

As i am a new user and cannot yet post links, please search for the file indicated below on google, install, and do the steps again. I'm using Windows 8 and there comes a point when it goes beyond the ZTE Logo to a green screen which looks pixelated, and i thought i might have ruined my phone. Gave me a 3-second heart attack. Then the Moto Helper drivers kicked in, and it rebooted, and now the SuperUser icon is there.

Please note that I am making the same disclaimer as the OP: Do this at your own risk. Follow instructions to the letter. We cannot be held responsible for issues that may lead to a damaged/bricked phone.

Google this file and DL: MotoHelper_2.1.32_Driver_5.4.0.exe

No go with Android 4

I've installed all the drivers. On the English words displayed (after being told to press any key & doing so), I get "fastboot error: protocol fault (no status)" & "< waiting for device >" with the phone's display stuck on the ZTE logo. I think that the problem is that my phone uses Android 4 (Jelly Bean) whereas other phones successfully rooted are using Android 2 (Gingerbread). Any ideas?

Quick history, I got a HK One XL (I'm in Aus), unpacked it and joined to wifi, started doing software updates from within the phone and the second update seems to have bricked it.

I would rather stick with RUU roms for now and I've tried applying the linked HK one using the AIO kit but get the same signature error

Would anyone be able to assist?

[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] sorrowuk:
Okay, we need to try fix the Nook HD+ rebooting issue.

Some users say its wifi not being able to restart and some say its the sdcard i/o read write issues.

I'm not sure exactly what it is but the sd card can definitely cause issues.

I think the best way to go is not use the sd card at all except for the initial bootloader bypass.

This means once you are in android any i/o errors to the sd card will not cause cm10 to reboot.

If you have just /system on the sdcard then this can help a bit however i/o errors could still cause the system to reboot as the /system partition is on the sd card.

Additionally as a side effect this also means we can swap sd cards in and out inside android without any rebooting. Say you have 2 16gb and have movies on both. You can access both content.

This should work although I am not sure how hard it is.

The partitions would be on sd card and we would have to get cyanoboot to boot from these emmc partitions instead of sdcard.

For rom updates we could write directly to this system partition on emmc.

I think this is the best end result. Though I am not sure if its as easy to get to at the moment.

If it was easier to get rid of the stock nook os on emmc and install cm10 in its place then this is not too much of a loss as I don't feel the nook os is really needed for anything. This is just an alternative.

Although I think if we definitely take the sd card out of the equation it will help greatly with a lot of issues.

[Nook HD, HD+ Android Development] leapinlar:
For those that may have missed it, I sort of implemented this option. It is a hybrid install that puts /data on internal memory. It indeed does reduce the reboot issue due to the SD. See the link in my signature.

[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamebarron88:
So I've restored several backups, hard reset through phone settings, dialed ##72786# to re program phone, updated prl and profile, and finally LGNPST. My 4g data works fine but i cannot get calls texts to work.

When I switch to my gnex calls and texts work like normal. So this is not a network error.

Any ideas? The geniuses at my sprint store are stumped.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] sharkboy0901:
Switch to your gnex how?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] javskies:
I think he reactivates the gnex online. Possibly a carrier lock?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamebarron88:
Oops didn't mean to thank that lol. Yes i just re activate it through sprints website.

I've never heard of a carrier lock before. I'll look that up. Thanks
[Sprint LG Optimus G] sharkboy0901:
Just asking cuz I've seen someone mess up called switching from one device to another.

---------- Post added at 10:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:46 PM ----------

[Sprint LG Optimus G] javskies:
its all good. i wanna be on your good side if you end up fixing the jb port lol.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] sharkboy0901:
Lol

I didn't get a chance today to decompile the apk to see what's up but tomorrow I'm going all in see if I can help out. I really like JB with all them qslide apps I want to use it as my daily rom.

so op do the bars show an X

And have you toggled airplane mode?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamebarron88:
Sometimes the bars show a red x. When there is an x I cannot get data either. Sometimes the x is gone and I get 4g again.

After LGNPST I was able to successfully update profile and prl but it did not fix the problem. I've been able to update profile a few times. After it says the profile has been updated the phone reboots. I've never seen that prior to this.

Oh and the lock screen and notification pull down both say sprint. As if it is connected to sprint service.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] skullzaflare:
did you ever figure this out? looks like im in the same boat now

---------- Post added at 12:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:24 AM ----------

well think i found part of the reason, i no longer have a "min" or phone number, as well as my prl went from 25011 to 40000
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamebarron88:
I took it to Sprint and they could not get it activated either. They said the phone is not recognizing it's meid (I think, he may have called it something else). Luckily I have TEP so they ordered me a new phone free of charge.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] skullzaflare:
unfortunately i dont have that option, so i will keep looking lol, if i fix it, ill post back here for future errors lol
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Veritass:
Did you flash the test jb Sprint rom?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamebarron88:
Do you mean the original couple, or has there been a recent update? I flashed the original, as well as the first update and the 2nd and 3rd kernels(or whatever those zips were). It was strange. I had my gnex activated before I flashed the second update. When I reactivated the LG it seemed something had been ruined. 4g worked but no texts or calls.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] skullzaflare:
Same for me, turn 4g off it and you get a red x
[Sprint LG Optimus G] stealthily:
under setting mobile network settings is it set to lte/cdma or lte only? if it says lte only it will block all 1x and 3g signals
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Veritass:
That's your problem you got carrier locked. Nothing you can do but get a new phone

At least that's what I think
[Sprint LG Optimus G] skullzaflare:
Only have options of cdma or cdma/lte

I don't think that is what it is, but im going to take it to sprint. Even if that's what it was, you would think cdma work shop could still modify the files
[Sprint LG Optimus G] \m/:
Sprint cannot lock the device's radio. It can control whether it or not it has network access, but that would not cause a red X on the signal, just the 3G/4G to disappear. The bars, depending on connection, would still show even if the device was completely deactivated.

To anyone facing this issue, I would get your MSL (if you're rooted, there's an app on the play store) and dial ##786#, press menu key, reset to defaults. Unlike ##72786# which only resets network connection, this will reset your phone to default settings in case it is a software issue causing this, and it will also initiate a handsfree activation, in case the issue is network-related. Yes, your phone will be completely reset, so back up your stuff now if you keep precious items on it. I'm thinking pictures/video/media should be ok, but I would back them up or move them just in case. I do not want to be held responsible for your lost pictures :)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamebarron88:
This method (##786#, reset to defaults) did not help my phone. ##72786# did not work either. If you don't have TEP I'd recommend waiting to flash the JB port until it is verified stable.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] skullzaflare:
I had 4g data, that was it

I have my msl, neither of those do anything

im wondering if I can use someones NAND backup, then reprogram everything in. or I noticed if you wipe everything in recovery, there are still folders in root, if I can get a copy of those..

same in my case, however, doesn't matter how stable a rom become it will not fix a messed up radio or carrier. I have flashed stock, JB, lgn ,etc
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamebarron88:
I didn't say that flashing a stable build would fix the radio. I meant in order to avoid breaking the radio wait until the Rom is fully ready before flashing.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] skullzaflare:
Oh, I don't think it was the rom, im sure it was something I did
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamebarron88:
I'm not sure what it was but we must have made the same mistake then.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] sharkboy0901:
changing networks in build prop did it for me
[Sprint LG Optimus G] jamebarron88:
I tried that but I probably used the wrong word. Is it just "sprint"?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] sharkboy0901:
I think its SPCS
[Sprint LG Optimus G] AdriVelazquez:
Im' also having issues with this now.

What did you do exactly Sharkboy?

Even when I attempt to update, it says that I'm not in the USA.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] sharkboy0901:
I changed network target operator.

No way to recover that i know of, i tried everything. I had to get mine replaced.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] javskies:
what app? the two on the play store say they dont work
[Sprint LG Optimus G] sharkboy0901:
What app are you talking about?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] javskies:
msl reader and get my msl
[Sprint LG Optimus G] sharkboy0901:
You need cdma devterm. On the computer. Make sure you set it to lg mode
[Sprint LG Optimus G] skullzaflare:
i figured out that is issue is in the m9kefs1 partition, which apparently holds your MEID, PRL, and radio info. unpon flashing a fellow members fs1 partition my radio worked again, though it was then in his name, had to program it back to my phone.

my phone is now fully functional aside from you choose either 4g lte, or 1xRTT, wont connect to 3g
[Sprint LG Optimus G] _Epic:
From what I can tell from this thread, it sounds like the only option is a replacement device.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] sharkboy0901:
You might be on to something there.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] AdriVelazquez:
Indeed, you may have gotten something there.

Have you tried the remaining m9kefs to return to default?

m9kefs1 -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p4

m9kefs2 -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p5

m9kefs3 -> /dev/block/mmcblk0p6

If you flash those files, they may revert the phone to fully funtional.
