Fantastic, thanks. FedEx delivered today, I'll activate it tomorrow and give it a try!
[HTC One V] DynoXG:
Watch out

Just a heads up guys. I'm not sure if it's true, but according to multiple calls to Virgin's customer service, they have a contract with FedEx to do a one time delivery. Which means they will leave your $250 phone on your front door if no one is home, no matter how bad your neighborhood is or how close the door is to public access.

I went through hell when I checked my tracking number and it was supposed to arrive the day earlier. I thought someone had taken it from the front door while I was at work. It turns out that FedEx left it at the door, but at someone else's house! Lucky for me these honest people brought it to me on the weekend. They told me it was on their front door when they got home.

Customer service had a hard time believing me and opened up a case for review, which they said would take a few days. I called them pack and told them to close it. If you're not going to be home that day, I recommend leaving a small note on your door telling FedEx where to put your package. Anything is better than your front door.
[HTC One V] BackHandLegend:
That's horrible service from the guy who delivered your package. When my phone got here, the fed ex guy asked to speak to me personally so I could sign on the pad.

can't get it to work

I've tried that rooting method with the motochopper one and the Xperia_L_ROOT one and neither works.

They both start fine but as soon as they start trying to actually DO anything, they either say "error: device offline" or "error: multiple devices and emulators"

any thoughts/ideas/suggestions/help?

I followed the directions to the letter too :/

This is great info. Thanks everyone.

Does anyone have any idea how to unroot? I am concerned about possibly having to send the phone in for warranty service sometime down the line.

Thanks!

help please

Can someone please help me? I need the font folder from zte supreme.. i delete some fonts ..please if someone can upload fonts i need help..:( oh any image show the fonts permissions
[HTC One V] BackHandLegend:
BE WARNED. Changing fonts is an easy way to get a bootloop. We don't have a custom recovery as well as a stock custom rom, so if you brick your phone its gonna stay that way. Hopefully we get dev support but chances are that we wont.
[HTC One V] buggy050:
thx

thx for reply...i fixed now.is back to normal and yea I learned :D
[HTC One V] mrsweet08:
Why is it that we wont get dev support? I'm stuck in a boot loop and I have a stock system,boot,recovery.img, but I can't get them to load onto the phone in any way I'm guessing signature verification. I've tried almost every method I can think of recovery FTM and adb sideload. As this phone has no fastboot. Or at least I can't find one. I don't even care if I can use it as a phone anymore I just want to get some kind of a system up and running on it. Any suggestions at all?
[HTC One V] BackHandLegend:
To get dev support you need a person to be interested enough in the phone to buy it. That person has to be a developer who is very android savvy. There's more than that though. This phone is ZTE. A Chinese company. It isn't Samsung, LG, Motorola, or HTC so the odds of a person wanting a phone that isn't branded by a big company is smaller, not to mention they develop for this phone at the expense of their own time, resources, and without capital gain. Lets also remember that this is Virgin Mobile. A smaller company that uses Sprint's towers.
[HTC One V] mrsweet08:
Okay well I have this one and I feel like I'm never going to get it to work so if you might happen to know someone who is very good with android. I'd be interested in donating the device for the right cause. Its not really a cheap phone around $300 retail value. I don't know what they can do at this point as its already messed up....
[HTC One V] Curtis1973:
I suggest calling the Scab Customer Support workers at virgin mobile and getting a replacement device under warranty. Those cheap a** ZTE phones go in to boot loop without doing anything to them at times. Best example is ZTE Venture. Never owned the piece of garbage but helped do some development on it and every user..what few there were lol..all had boot loop issues even when they did not do anything to it. When you talk to the scab workers..tell them the damned thing wont turn on at all and it was like that when you got up one morning. Anything else will just confuse those idiots and complicate your replacement process.

Kingo Android Root

Hello, just want to say that I have tried a few ways to root the ZTE Supreme but had no luck. I read this post and went to the website within 2 minutes the phone got rooted, completely free, it's been working just fine, no problems so far, since then I have removed and or disabled a few apps that I'll never use, but still have a few I just don't know if is safe to remove, I also had to disable some because there aren't any options to uninstall or remove, I use Titanium Backup since I've had it for quite a while and it has never failed me. I want to thank the person who made this post since it helped me a lot.

---------- Post added at 09:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:22 PM ----------

Amen to that lol, after rooting the phone, I installed root explorer and just renamed the file extension with .bak and it worked just fine, now I can turn the phone on in the mornings without the risk of a cardiac arrest. Thanks for the info.

---------- Post added at 09:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:29 PM ----------

I'm enjoying this phone a lot, I use it daily, got one of those holsters with a stand and is great, installed this rotation app and the screen is big enough to browse the web, connects to my network at 5.0 Ghz and at 4G around town is pretty fast also, battery last 2 days of constant use. My son has the Samsung Galaxy III and when I did a screen comparison the ZTE screen looked brighter and the colors where more saturated, I mean the Samsung's screen is awesome but I couldn't tell much difference. Movies look great also, camera still needs work the flash seems too intense the light beam needs to be dispersed more maybe a camera flash cover with that ability will be available in the near future. I'm trying different SD cards in different sizes so far the 8GB, Samsung, 16GB Kingston worked fine, and have a generic 64GB coming to see if is compatible.

I got the 64 GB card turned out to be a fake (even though the item has lot's of good feedback) so got my money back, hopefully this Samsung I got coming will work fine. I couldn't post the link hopefully soon.

kingo android root

rooted with Kingo also. The phone is FAST. And no issues to date. cleaned out the crapware.

thanks to everyone for their knowledge.
[HTC One V] kc12:
can you please explain this a little more for me, pretty please. When I try to rename this file I get 'task failed'. I'm using esfile explorer 3. Root explorer is on. What am I missing?

thanks.
[HTC One V] no99sqrd:
I'm not sure it's been a while, but I think all I did was rename the file. I was using root explorer lite, so I don't know if that makes a difference or not. You might want to install it and see it that one works for you. I've found that sometimes one "root browser" will work and another won't. I don't think I had to mount the drive, but that is another option.

Here's the link to the play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.root.browserfree&hl=en
[HTC One V] kc12:
ok, I figured out what I was doing wrong... I was adding .bak to the end of the file name. After removing the .ogg and adding the .bak to the end of the file, it changed the name properly and worked. :good: no more obnoxious boot song/noise

thanks for responding to my plea for help.

---------- Post added at 03:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:57 PM ----------

[HTC One V] no99sqrd:
Glad it worked for you - looking at mine, all I did was add .bak after the .ogg. :confused:

Oh well, as long as it worked! :cool:

If getting rid of the boot sound was the only thing I could accomplish with rooting, it was still worth it!
[HTC One V] kc12:
YEAH! that LOUD noise is gone.

I am a little disappointed I don't have the option for setting up a hotspot with this phone. I had that option with my LG optimus using CM 7.2.0 custom rom by backside-IHO.... I sure hope someone comes up with a custom for this phone, as I haven't seen one yet. Point me in the right direction if I am missing it please.
[HTC One V] no99sqrd:
I haven't seen any ROMs out there. Maybe when CyanogenMod gets their app into the playstore, we might have a shot
[HTC One V] kc12:
ok. I just keep waiting and looking..... thanks again.
[HTC One V] BlindJestur:
I have rooted, got rid of boot song, installed wifi tether router to have mobile hotspot, altered SD card preferences so, ZTE will use external card for internal memory (hold many more applications - instead of measly 4 gb it uses 32gb card I put in it) that's about all of us can do with this phone so far. But is a great phone. Gets 6400 in quadrant standard
[HTC One V] kc12:
thanks for confirming wifi tether router.

Does anyone else have really bad reception issues? The antenna sucks, IMO. Anyone have any suggestions for that? The ZTE awe has a little better reception, the lg optimus has awesome reception in my house. This phone.... unbelievable how poor it is. Even around town, outside. Poor. Is it my phone? or what?

UPDATE: Yesterday I spent the afternoon in downtown Sarasota. I got full bars and 4g all afternoon. So that at least confirms I can get good reception in some areas....

Auto find your phone?

I was debating on Kingo or Xperia_L_ROOT.zip . My question is did Kingo have the ZTE Supreme in it's list of devices, or did it auto find the device. If it did NOT auto find your device, what device did you choose in the list?
[HTC One V] chas2014:
USB debug

Does your phone have to be in USB debugging ON for this to work?

Stop Huge Thumbnails Folder

So for some reason this phone creates a huge thumbnails folder. Mine was over 5GB in size. If you delete it, the gallery app will recreate it. So here's a way to save a lot of space and keep the gallery app from doing that.

1. Install ES File Explorer and set up the setting like this:

2. Delete the ".thumbnails" folder located in "sdcard0/DCIM/".

3. Create a file by selecting the + icon and choose "File":

4. Name the file ".thumbnails" and that's it. The thumbnails folder will not be recreated:

Note: The gallery app might not show thumbnails of your pictures after this. Simply install another gallery app like QuickPic and you're all set.
[HTC One V] Snape2011:
Perhaps late to the party, but...

I can confirm that WITHOUT ROOT, the FoxFi (I bought the full paid version because it's AWESOME) works - but NOT WiFi. The Sprint Network (and Virgin Mobile since they piggyback on Sprint's backbone) has found a way to cause WiFi tether being active to totally disconnect you from their mobile data unless you pay them their blood money. Not sure how they did it, but they did. I used to cheerfully use FoxFi with no problems, but with the update they pushed a couple of months ago... <sigh> The GOOD news, however, is that the Bluetooth Tether works perfectly. <evil grin> I have the paid PDA+ because I didn't want data limits, it is installed on this phone, my Samsung Nexus, and my LG Optimus G, and the BT Tether just simply works. My laptop loves it, my WiFi only iPad loves it (now that I've Jailbroken it and installed iBluever), and my daughter's Android tablet likes it as well. So.... That's my $0.02

Perhaps the WiFi tether issue could be solved by root and killing Carrier IQ, but I'm currently in a position where a rooted phone would be a liability.

-- edit -- Also the 4G speeds are way better that what I was getting connected via USB tether or even when WiFi actually worked. :)
[HTC One V] rkhanso:
Anyone have a link to wifi tether for root users? It's not on the play store anymore

Anyone know where I can get the Wifi Tether for Root Users app? It's not found on the Play store anymore. Any way to be sure what I find is legit and not going to be hacked?

I found this link. Is it legit? Or, anyone else have a good link?

This website won't let me post a link to what I've found. I'll just say it's at a code.google domain and there's a /p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list at the end.

update and root

I tried to install the update a couple days ago. Accepting it boots the phone to recovery. The update tries to flash and then fails. It didn't affect root.
[HTC One V] kc12:
update

As stated above, if you try to instal the update VM is trying to push to our rooted phones it fails.

To turn off the annoying notifications :

Install autorun Manager from google play

Start app and select advanced mode.

In settings : check show system entries & enable system app disable.

Choose system apps

Scroll to google services framework. Click to expand.

Scroll down to com.google.android.gfs.update.systemupdateservices$reciever....remove the check.

Reboot.

Joy! :laugh:

Put the check back to receiver future notifications for updates.

All credit goes to xda member Kngdmond.
[HTC One V] DynoXG:
Thanks Kngdmond and kc12. :good: It worked great.

Theres's a couple "Autorun Manager" in the play store, I used the one made by "MobiWIA - AndRS Studio".

Also, when I expanded "google services framework", com.google.android.gfs.update.systemupdateservices$reciever was the last one on the list in my ZTE, took a while to find it with all of the other titles scrolling by.

"There is no SU binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it"

Hi, I went throug hall these steps (tried a couple times), and when open SuperSU I get this message: "There is no SU binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it".

My guess on the next thing to try would be to do a factory reboot and try rooting again. Does that sound right? Or does anyone have any other ideas?
[HTC One V] notkud:
That's weird, because I only utilized Xperia_L_Root and it worked great. It was super easy as well.

I avoided Kingo because: I read somewhere that it could potentially be grabbing data from your phone, I read about some users who experienced bricking, and it was banned on XDA temporarily awhile back. The whole suspicious data activity stuff doesn't necessarily matter to me, nor to others probably, but I prefer to steer clear of suspicious apps that little consensus has been reached upon.

Bottom line is, I used Xperia_L_Root, and it worked. Not sure why yours failed? Did you try more than once?

root and app storage

Will rooting allow me to access the internal SD card for apps?

I've had the VM Supreme a couple years and have 3 problems: recently it will reboot randomly sometimes saying low battery but ok after reboot, I frequently have storage errors on large app updates, and lastly there appear to be duplicate directory listings. The storage error is the main issue I want to deal with. According to Storage settings, there is a 4G internal SD card that has 3.6G free. My "User app space" is only 1.5G with 190MB free. I have an 8G external card that I keep a few photos, etc - don't use the phone for media much.
