[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shaun_vip:
Well the quality of the tablet has nothing to do with the app not supporting it lol... I have a Samsung tab 3 10.1 and bought this just because I got it for a steal. Truthfully the tablet isn't that bad. Screen resolution and the LCD display are really the only areas lacking performance is great with root and some adjusting. It is an mtk device with ubifs file system so a few support issues should be expected. I have had great results with my dl1010q. It is the cheapest built device I have owned but the best of the Chinese cheapies I have touched. As time passes I feel that we will see better support for most mtk devices as they will become more common. Until then I'm stuck with kinguser (not by choice) it functions 100% properly for this tablet.

Confirm. After the uninvited update (A1008L_V1.4.2 build# 20150114), which installed Clean Master, I was able to get root using VRoot v.1.7.9.11674, and Xiaomi ADB USB drivers from adbtoolkit.com/drivers/applications/xiaomi ; then installed SuperSU, made it a system app (and it removed the chinese superuser); finally, disabled Wireless update and Clean master by means of Uninstall expert.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epic_task:
Yes, not only did it reboot my machine without warning to start the update, and then go on to install new craplets and disable root, but it also seems to have broken adb access for me. (I can still mount as USB storage so I know that it does still talk to the computer.)

They've added insult to injury. I'll need to complain to BestBuy.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Planet Indigo:
I have some questions for those of you who have rooted after the latest firmware update.

First of all, to those who prefer (or would prefer) to use SuperSU over Kinguser, what makes you prefer it? Does it offer functionality that Kinguser lacks? Is Kinguser 100% safe regarding spyware/malware? I was a little wary since it's not on the Google store, but I haven't found solid evidence that Kinguser is a form of spyware/malware. Shaun_vip, you seemed to imply that you would have used SuperSU if only it was as functional as Kinguser for this particular tablet, what makes you say that? Did you find spyware/malware in Kinguser?

Secondly, has anyone tried the direct run from android iroot apk app? Their version 2.1.1 is from Jan 16th 2015 so it might be recent enough to run even on this new update, no? Has anyone tried it? The app there: www.mgyun.com/m/en

Also, Speranio, could you elaborate on "disabled Wireless update and clean master by means of Uninstall expert"? Did you use SuperSU to actually uninstall both of them or did you merely "freeze" the apps from starting upon boot? Has anyone done anything about that Accuweather process that keeps running in the background?

Here's my situation: my tablet was rooted with Root Genius, but I lost the root access following the last update. I still have that Kinguser app in my system folder but it no longer has root support. What would be the easiest and SAFEST way for me to regain root and restore kinguser's root privileges without having excess leftover apps, etc... I'm still quite new to android rooting, so the easier and the safer the process is, the better it would be for me. Thanks for any help.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LPCTech:
Originaly I rooted with root genius then the sudden BS update just rebooted my phone and installed crapware and malware and took away root. I was unable to find any other rooting method that worked besides this http://www.mgyun.com/en/getvroot suggested by another poster. This rooted me (AFTER I reset the device) and installed "Superuser" and a weird chinese app. I also still have kinguser on there so I just left the superuser and kingroot on there. I used kingroots uninstall feature(or maybe superuser? I forget) and the system app mgr to remove cleaner master(pos) and the other crap that was installed. Now its rooted with only the apps I want on it other than that it has both superuser and kingroot but that doesnt bother me so. I guess all is well now. Not a bad device, but I will never buy a digiland again after this. Mostly because of that update situation.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shaun_vip:
I have always had no problems with SuperSU (been using for years). Kinguser is clean; however, not enough is known about it for me to trust it completely yet. I use titanium backup so kinguser is the only option that works as it should for this tablet. I did not take the last wireless update I used tibackup to freeze wireless update so I won't have issues with bricking/loosing root. I am happy with things the way they are.

Go into app settings and force stop the AccuWeather app and freeze with titanium backup. No more AccuWeather process.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Planet Indigo:
Out of curiosity, did you try the android version of that vroot/iroot before using the PC version?

In that post you refer to "kingroot", do you refer to "kinguser" and "kingroot" interchangeably? Are they one and the same, just different name, or did you have 3 root apps installed at once? Is "kingroot" the "weird chinese app" you are referring to?

Finally, when you said you removed "the other crap that was installed", did you uninstall Accuweather? How about the "wireless update", did you uninstall that or just freeze it from running? What else did you successfully remove? I'm trying to compile a list of what I can safely uninstall.

Thanks for the answer. When you say "kinguser is clean", do you mean the interface is clean or do you mean that you read about it or checked it yourself and that it's clean of malware/spyware? If the latter, why are you still not completely trusting it yet? Are you not 100% sure that it's clean of spyware/malware? I'm just trying to understand/learn as much as possible about Kinguser.

The thing about Accuweather is that despite me losing root, I can still access Kinguser and its uninstall feature lists Accuweather as un-"uninstallable". unlike clean master (which it lists as uninstallable but only with root). Also when you check it out in App info, it says: "In order to improve performance and reduce memory usage, some of these permissions are available to Accuweather because it runs in the same process as Fused location, Settings storage, schedule power on & off, MTK-G sensor_cali, Key Chain, Android System, Input devices, com.mediatek, voice unlock, settings, common data service, batterywarning, EM SIM ME lock, MTK thermal manager, dongle and Fotaprovider." It sounds like it's somehow integrated in the OS, no? (which I hate...) Ideally, I'd like to uninstall it but is is safe to freeze it or preferably to uninstall it? I understand you didn't update to the last update, so you might not know, has anyone here uninstalled or frozen it?

Is freezing an app basically a last resort on an app that you can't safely uninstall? I'd preferably like to avoid the extra running process of a dedicated freezing app if I can get a cleaner/more permanent result by just uninstalling the bloatware rather than freezing it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LPCTech:
Yes, sorry about that, I was using kinguser and kingroot interchangeably without noticing. The app is kinguser left by root genius. I left the accuweather app alone. I uninstalled clean master and the "wireless update app". And I uninstalled an app that was entirely in chinese, I dont know what it was, but its gone lol. I think there may have also been some kind of chinese "superuser" app also which I left alone. So there are between 2 and 3 "superuser-esque" apps on the tablet but it seems as if the original "superuser" is the one in control as its the only one showing which other apps get root permission. Ive been busy and not using the device much at the moment so Id have to poke around further. But im semi-happy for the moment that I at least have root and this forum ;) and I can go from there.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryan0720:
Have you found the stock firmware?? I also did the same now stuck at android guy eith no command???
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speranio:
Haven't tried iroot apk, instead I installed adb drivers and used VRoot on PC with the tablet connected over USB. VRoot puts chinese Superuser as a root access supervisor, so all root requests are in chinese. That's why i installed a "normal" root supervisor, SuperSU, which removed Superuser. I used Uninstall expert app to just freeze Clean master and wireless update, so they don't run anymore (didn't want to remove them completely - there is no stock firmware), you can also use Titanium backup for that purpose, but it's somewhat heavy tool (as if you use a sledgehammer to crack a nut ;), some people also report that it doesn't work with SuperSU.

With these tools and root access you can freeze any app you want, including Accuweather. If system starts misbehaving, you can unfreeze them.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LPCTech:
Just wanted to post that somehow when I turned the tablet on today a WHOLE BUNCH of new games and crapps were installed and clean master HAS RETURNED!!! SO i removed everything besides kinguser that I did not recognize. Now everything seems to work, all is well. Still have root. With just kinguser. It seems that you can uninstall just about everything that popped on there and still have root. But without a custom rom this thing still makes me nervous.

Screenshot Icon in Navbar?

Hey everyone,

I hate having to post this question...but I can't find an answer anywhere (here or through google search). I have two of these tablets which I rooted upon purchase (using Kingroot method). I quickly downloaded Titanium Backup and froze Accuweather, Browser, Calendar, Email, Gmail, Google+, Hangouts, Maps and Wireless Update. I then downloaded some games and puzzle/education apps for the kids and those became Christmas presents. One of the tablets has a screenshot icon in the navbar and the other does not. If you rotate to landscape,voume down and volume up buttons are added (but again, not on the other one).

I have scoured settings and tried to find this option but haven't had any luck. Does anyone have any idea how to enable/disable this?

I considered doing Xposed but then I'd have to be running another app process and simply don't want anything else that could potentially bog the system down.

Thanks in advance for any advice!

Recovery for bricked DL10101q

I had my dl1010q rooted and I stupidly installed chainfire 3d. I restarted my tablet but Im stuck in a boot loop now. What Options for recovery do I have. This is my first android device and the digiland support hasn't answered any of my emails. I can get in to recovery and I tried factory reset and wiping the cache but no luck. Any suggestions?

Thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vampirefo:
Never heard of the app, you need to find out what chainfire 3d does, eg what files it adds, what files it removes, then port a custom recovery for your tablet.

Boot into custom recovery and remove the files chainfire added, replace any files chainfire 3d removed.

I thought I'd pass this along, but I got a reply from Digiland Tech Support when I asked them how to remove Clean Master from my D1010q. Needless to say, it appears that Clean Master only has a few days to live.......

Hi Mr. Sandman,

Thank you for contacting us and we are very sorry for the delay. The Clean Master was automatically programmed in the tablet when there was an OTA (over the air) update. We have provided reports to our Engineers and Webmasters that customers were not happy with it. We have been informed by our Engineers that the Clean Master will be removed on 3/25/15 for next OTA. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Don't mess with tablet screen, your rotation = 90 that usually means screen is put in upside down, factory rotation should be 0.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Planet Indigo:
I posted earlier in this thread but I'm back with more questions for other fellow users. (Digiland 1010Q user here)

So following the craptacular forced update in January, I was left with no root and some forced apps like Clean Master and Accuweather.

Following advices from this thread, I then regained root with vroot, which installed SuperUser (the app that looks like a blue shield with a lion on it). It came with another app that seemed kinda bloaty, so I uninstalled that one through normal means, no issue.

In March, I noticed that a wireless update came out, but I quickly disabled the "wireless update" app and disabled it from auto start.

Question #1: Does anyone know what this March firmware update did besides remove Clean Master? Did it remove Accuweather? Did it improve/add/remove any functionality on the tablet? I'd be very interested to know from people who have installed it, especially rooted users to see if they lost root again or not.

Lastly, ever since february or so, I have on occasions seen some games auto install on my tablet, without my consent or knowledge. They are easy to uninstall, but I'd obviously like to clear this up. After downloading several anti virus/malware detectors, several saw nothing, but the few that did always came back with 2 possible culprits: Accuweather and the vroot SuperUser. Before touching my vroot superuser, and since I suspect it might indeed be that bloatware Accuweather that DIgiland forced on us back in January, I'd like to know if anyone on this thread has actually UNINSTALLED accuweather from the january update? I've read from users earlier in the thread that they had frozen it from starting, but I'd rather see it gone completely if it's safe.

Question #2: So, has anyone uninstalled Accuweather completely? If so, what tool did you use for it? I really like ES File Explorer so I was looking to do it through there.

Finally, my question 3:

Question #3: If I end up successfully uninstalling Accuweather completely and unknown games keep appearing on my tablet, it would pretty much only leave vroot SuperUser as the culprit. If I was to uninstall that and replace it with a superuser app from the google store, can those app run completely silent and only on demand? I had KingUser before the january update and that superuser app always loaded itself in memory when I booted the tablet (as seen in running apps), but I kinda like that the vroot superuser doesn't seem to run at startup (at least I can't see it in running apps until I use a function that requests root and loads it in memory). I play some games that refuse to boot if a superuser app is detected and I'd like to have one that stays "silent" unless the user requests it.

Thanks for anyone who could help me clear up those 3 questions.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HeaT420:
Well, I figured it out. It is really easy since I found there is a guide on how to do it using the Flash Tool. First Install the drivers if you haven't already. The guide is under Welcome/Download but you just select MTK_AllInOne_DA for the Download-Agent and select MT8127_Android_scatter for the Scatter-loading. Select Format All + Download. Power your tablet off and plug it in to the USB, It should configure with the drivers you installed earlier and say driver install successfully. Now you click Download in the Flash Tool then Power ON your tablet. DONE =)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Planet Indigo:
Hi, did you read my post two messages above yours? It seems we are having the same issue...

A few questions:

- do you have the 10" 1010Q model or the 7" tablet? Mine is the 1010Q.

- you say you are not rooted, do you know what firmware version do you have? Do you have the one from january? Did you download the firmware update in march? (or any that may have been released since as I'm not sure if the march one is the latest as of today)

- I personally suspected Accuweather or my rooting program to be the cause of that issue. Since you are not rooted, maybe it is indeed Accuweather? Do you have accuweather on your tablet? It's a bloatware forced process that runs at startup and was introduced with the crappy firmware update in January.
