HELP ROOT TECNO kd7 Android 10

Hello someone, I've been trying to root my TECNO kd7 device but no method is working for me.

I first tried installing magisk zip through recovery but I got an error message that says:

Footer is wrong

E: signature verification failed

Installation aborted.

I used the second method which I followed a tutorial from https://xdaforums.com/t/aio-guide-t...r-unlocking-root-twrp-stock-firmware.4345557/ but it never worked instead I got my device bricked where it got stucked in bootloop with the following message:

"orange state

your device has been unlocked and cant be trusted

your device will boot in 5 seconds"

then it turns off and repeats

It won't power off, Pressing power button and volume up to access boot menu doesn't work nor does connecting it to pc and trying to use adb shell.

Though I fixed it after following this tutorial on how to flash bootloop

Repair DEAD(HARD BRICKED) Realme 3 | 3i Tutorial

In this tutorial we are going to Repair Realme 3 (RMX1821) MT6771 Chipset. from being hard bricked (no charge, no recovery, no fastboot) using SP Flashtool. with the help of Bypass Utility "MTK-bypass" to disable bootrom protection(sla and daa)...

xdaforums.com

I tried the method again using the boot img from the firmware I used in flashing my device but I got stucked on Tecno logo after the process which I had to flash my device again.

Please someone help with any alternative method that's gonna work for real.

My phone build is: KD7-H6211FQRSTU-Q-GL-210127V375

Normally, you can't install other applications that aren't Go apps. In some cases, it can work doing these apps as system apps, but, just work with some. Never buy an Android Go device unless you know what you're doing.

Be sure you are giving all the permissions to the app, if not enough, erase all the caches, if needed, erase all the data from the app and all the data from the internal storage relevant to this app, if still needed more, uninstall the app, and reinstall it from the Play Store, or be sure that your source is trusty.
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
You can root it without any issue, using your TWRP recovery, just check that the Magisk version suits for your device, and TWRP is capable to mount the /data partition, if you can't flash it through your internal storage, use ADB sideload, to get it, after that, take in account, that sometimes is needed to make a format data, to can boot to OS (only if it needs).

I'm assuming that you know that your bootloader has to remain unlocked.

Hello I'm new to posting on these forums but I have been reading them for a while.

Anyway I installed cyanogenmod 10.1.3 on my captivate and every thing was working fine, until one day every time I would boot up the phone it would go straight to CWM recovery.

I put the phone into download mode using the 3 button combo, and decided I would just put it back to stock (I used this guide. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=731989).

Well it finished doing its thing and I booted up the phone but it kept looping the, "att world phone" screen. So I tried putting the phone into download mode using the buttons, but every time I plug in the USB cable the battery icon shows up. I used all the combinations I could find, and nothing worked.,So I bought a USB jig.

Well when a plug in the jig nothing happens ( I even tried different batteries). I tested the jig on my friends focus flash and it works. I have a video below showing everything. I was hoping someone could help me out, it would be much appreciated. Thanks for your time

What is this phone?

Hi

I was just given this:

kupo.be/liephone.jpg (<10 posts so can't post a proper link)

Can anyone tell me what it is?

It's a single core CPU despite the quad core claims.

I'm hoping once it's identified I can find a standard Android 2.3.3 at least as it's a reasonably functional phone otherwise which will do for O2.

(the current ROM is android 2.3.3 but has been skinned into IOSy uselessness -.-)

It had no IMEI either on arrival so I've set one from a donor n97 mini I have that fell from a great height and it signs on to O2 okay now

I believe it's called a Goophone and cost around £80 from china?

Hey, first I would to thank you for this post, I'm new here and I hope that I'll get some help :)

I bought a tablet called Condor ctab785R (in Algeria) and I found that it's the same as ramos x10 and I'm sure about that ! my problem that the official condor firmware is very buggy especially when I connect to internet that's why I would flash Ramos official firmware because I think it's better.

before doing that I would backup my official firmware and when I searched in the internet I found that I need cwm but I didn't findt it.

so my questions are:

1. could I backup my official firmware without cwm (my tablet is already rooted)? if yes how?

2. if I need cwm is there any compatible one with my tab? and how to install it?

3. do I need to check or verify anything before flashing Ramos firmware?

when your flashing using a custom recovery hit "toggle signatures" in the "install from sd" before you flash your rom if your still having trouble it could be the zip you downloaded try redownloading it and try once more

---------- Post added at 07:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:49 AM ----------

I would highly recommend installing cwmr or twrp before trying to flash a firmware for a different device even tho its about the same as the one you have. you could throw your device into bootloop or even worse bricking it ive tried looking for a recovery for your device but theirs kinda of a language barrier there :( you can try Helium to backup your device http://clockworkmod.com/carbon

[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
You can't create threads or reply to threads in development sections of the forum until you have a minimum number of posts(I thought they changed this rule but I guess they didn't).

This is to prevent new users from spamming development threads with irrelevant/useless information/questions and repeated questions. It is to limit the content of development threads to relevant, useful information that is directly related to the development itself instead of overloading it with posts that play no part in furthering the actual development and questions from users that don't understand the development or how to use the development.

[General Questions and Answers] DiamondJohn:
I would not be so quick to flash a data partition from another version of android in bulk. That is basically a forced dirty flash, which the devs have chosen to disallow. One of he failure points is if a system app/component of the new ROM expects different data structure, it may crash when it finds the old data. The data partition includes data for possibly updated system apps. And this crash may occur much later than the first boot, or even just do so quietly.

A safer approach is to use your favourite backup program to only backup 3rd party apps . And then to save off your current config: most pf which is stored in your "settings". Because I use to build from source and flashing a lot of ROMs, I have automated this second part with my App TeMeFI. It generates a looooong script which should be applied with some thought/review; ie not blindly, like flashing the whole data partition. You can find the method at Current State >settings>Generate Set All

[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
MediaTek devices are not specially hard to make modifications to, like flashing a custom recovery, even, there are most tool availables to do so, than for Qualcomm devices.

ADB runs while your device is on, or in recovery mode, which commands work, depends on, if the user authorized previously, the use of it, or, if while in a custom recovery because having a stock recovery, probably, only ADB sideload is admitted.

To flash a custom recovery, you should:

- Unlock bootloader.

- Boot to TWRP through fastboot.

- Flash it permanently to the recovery ramdisk partition, in case your TWRP version allows it.
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
Maybe your backup lacks of an essential part to can boot, you should flash the stock ROM, the one that worked as based, then restore what you have.

Hey there

I've recently bought an Android smart TV (android version : 9 ), but the android on the TV is heavily limited by manufacturer in my country Iran, I just can install apps, that's it. There's nothing in the setting, literally nothing, just Bluetooth, Wifi and storage options and there is no build number so I can enable developer options, thus there is no USB or Wifi debugging for me…

I've simply connected my laptop to my Huawei Nova 3i which has android 9 via ADB over WiFi,,,

how can i enable USB debugging on my tv without accessing developer options ?

Is there any way or any app or by changing something by root explorer app on my TV android system files?

By the way, my TV has no root access..any suggestions?

If you can install some apps from external sources, you can install something like QuickShortcutMaker, you can start the developer options menu from it or even find other useful hidden actions from the menu user (if available from the build itself), or also there are some apps like Developer Options to can access directly to the menu.

[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
You can recover your device by flashing the stock ROM through LMSA, but if you have your backup in the internal storage, then it will have gone, who leaves an important thing in a place where is not safe? I'm assuming you have it in an external storage, so if something bad happens you can recover it.

[General Questions and Answers] DiamondJohn:
Have you explicitly checked if the activity is missing?

One of the techniques I have used to access activities within an APK that are not accessible via the menu (I originally used this technique to skip the start screen, and go directly to the page I wanted). For example, the following opens up the System UI Tuner, which there is no menu item for on my device.

am start com.android.systemui/com.android.systemui.DemoMode;

You have to know in which APK/component the activity resides, as well as the activity name. Which, as you can see above for the System UI Tuner, may not be obvious.
[General Questions and Answers] jabi_james:
I checked, how? There was a shortcut on hidden setting app which someone suggested to install to access hidden menu on my TV OS, by the name “developer options” and when I pressed it, apparently there was nothing on that address which was defined for normal android OS.

So there is no such a thing as developer options or USB debugging for me, and if there is, its location is different from android phone OS and

that trick you mentioned above is awesome,, but i don't know in which APK/component the activity resides, or the activity name,, so how can i find it ?

by the way there is an option on my TV's service menu called UART Debug menu,, but there is no ADB,, those are the same?

Nope. The UART is going to be on some connector, probably inside the unit, probably a 4 pin connector.

There may not be an actual connector, just the circuit board with a place for the connector.

Take some good photos of the inside and I'm sure it will be easy to spot.

If you have that you probably will have a rooted console.
[General Questions and Answers] SubwayChamp:
Not sure what does "After flashing stock ROM can I turn off the bootloader," mean, it´s a sentence or a question?.

All devices need and have a bootloader, so they can load properly all the images from Android instances, so you shouldn´t (nor can´t) get rid of it.

To fix your device, I suggested to flash the stock ROM, in my previous post is stated that if your backup is in your internal memory, you´ll lose it. The orange warning is nothing more than a not aesthetic cosmetical fact, but if also, you can´t actually boot, is probably, because your bootloader remains locked, and you did try to make some modifications.
