it seems that it has not been done yet ... I just got mine with lolipop and I am also waiting for a root method ...
[General Questions and Answers] NaturalBornCamper:
It seems like this guy managed to do it with vRoot/iRoot:

http://xdaforums.com/android/genera...00-unboxing-hands-t2953664/page3#post59997977

but it did not work with me, either with the latest version of iRoot or an older version. And that was with a Vanilla installation of the latest Android 5.0 from the Doogee website. I asked the guy which version of iRoot he used, but no answer..
[General Questions and Answers] tvladan:
Yea but as I understand what he wrote there, he flashed back to KitKat and than rooted the phone, which we know was possible. (Flash back to Android KitKat that's the title of his post) I would like to keep Lolipop and have my phone rooted since it came with some bloatware installed and I need to install some apps that need root privileges. I guess it's a matter of waiting for somebody with the proper knowledge to root it with Lolipop installed. Doogee DG700 users please keep this thread alive until a proper root method for Lolipop is posted. Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] NaturalBornCamper:
Oh yes, you're right, I did not read correctly as usual..

Well, let's hope a hacker cannot live with an unrooted DG700 and fixes that :)

Be careful guys, my phone is completely messed up:

-Cannot uninstall any apps as "settings" app crashes

-Cannot open google play store, even after clearing data

-Google play services keeps crashing all the time

-App "superCleaner" got installed and I cannot uninstall it, even with an uninstaller as it comes back after reboot
[General Questions and Answers] georgegpzx:
Dang...sorry about that...are you sure its from the root procedure? Mine works ok...I also checked it with root checker...Green results.
[General Questions and Answers] NaturalBornCamper:
Haha don't worry it's not your fault! :)

Trying to reset phone right now, will see what happens. If still broken, will reinstall lollipop completely.

I will then try the procedure again and post updates here. Might not finish today though, getting late here
[General Questions and Answers] Nudeldampf:
I hope it all works well :) Can you post how you did it after trying the procedure again? I've done some things with my old Samsung phone years ago, but am a total noob on this one :D
[General Questions and Answers] NaturalBornCamper:
No probs!

I managed to re-flash, re-partition and re-root. All works well and I see the storage space increased, but after the initial setup, the phone enters into a boot loop if I restart.. No idea why. I'm trying to figure out why and when it works perfectly, I'll post the correct vRoot with the EBR1 and EBR2 files in case people want to repartition as well.

In the meantime, if anybody has an idea why it would boot loop, go ahead and tell me.
[General Questions and Answers] tvladan:
I'll try it too and post results ASAP. Meanwhile, i did some trying with IRoot en version, did not work but got some suspicious apps installed, also my PC antivirus found the software suspicious. After 2 failed root attempts from iRoot I managed to uninstall the apps that it installed on my phone. Did some reading on the internet and found some troubeleing accusations regarding the vRoot / iRoot software installing crap on users phones. I'll still try rooting with this older version of vRoot and see what happens.
[General Questions and Answers] NaturalBornCamper:
Ok I give up.. I don't know enough about Android. I really don't know why my phone is working perfectly after repartitioning until the first restart after initial setup where it ends up into a boot loop.. I asked help to another XDA member, Elizabeth, who has very good knowledge in repartitioning. Hopefully she can help.

So of all I wanted to do:

1-Repartition for bigger data partition to have more apps (10 apps and phone is already full???)

2-Install a custom recovery like CWM or TWRP

3-Root the phone

4-Install XPosed

All I managed to do was root.. everything else not working but I will still give you guys what I used in case you want to mess with it and can manage to get it working

1-Repartitioning

I attached the files I tried to flash

4GB.rar for a 4GB data partition

6GB.rar for a 6GB partition

And I also included the original one from Doogee for Android 5.0 in case you want to try on your own. I never managed to flash using the scatter file. Every time I was flashing the EBR files with the original scatter file and it seemed to work well, until the first reboot. I created my EBR files with this guide:

http://xdaforums.com/android/general/howto-modify-ebr-mediatek-devices-t2769604

And tried using these EBR files:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2455850

But they all resulted in the same boot loop after the first time I restarted the phone (so if you never, ever restart, it works great ;))

2-Custom recovery

I got a custom recovery from that thread:

http://xdaforums.com/android/development/rom-cyanogenmod-12-0-doogee-titans2-t3115515

and I also attached it here. However it is of course not working either, cannot even get into recovery.

3-Root the phone

Just used the VRoot I attached. I rooted my phone about 9999 times with all the flash I did in the past 36 hours and it usually works on the first/second try, except now that I have reinstalled all my apps and after about 10 times GRRR! So just keep trying, it will work eventually. If after 3 tries it's not working, delete the "KingUser" and "supercleaner" apps, try again 2-3 times, rinse and repeat. I was just unlucky that last time.

4-Install XPosed

I did not even get that far since I never was able to install a custom recovery.. There is a guide on how to install the new alpha version for Lollipop and it doesn't seem very hard:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3034811

That's it! Good luck and I hope we'll have more help to put more details and a better guide
[General Questions and Answers] Nudeldampf:
Thanks a lot so far! :) I'll try this tomorrow after work when I have more time :)
[General Questions and Answers] Nudeldampf:
First, sorry for the late reply!

Maybe I'm missing something, but all I get from Vroot is the error 0x000007d1 with "no device found" :( USB Debugging is enabled and I've installed the universal ADB drivers, can access my phone storage from the Windows explorer, but vroot just won't work.
[General Questions and Answers] Nudeldampf:
So, I've tried several things and several adb and mtp drivers on two different computers, but Windows is still telling me that is has no correct driver for MTP. And vroot just keeps telling me it can't find the device and giving me the "helping" text of "USB_DEBUG", which basically opens a link to their forum explaing on how to enable USB Debugging - which I have enabled.

What the hell am I doing wrong? :(
[General Questions and Answers] sudhanshusatghare:
Hey any one tell me how to root ASUS_T00Q 5.0 lollipop
[General Questions and Answers] NaturalBornCamper:
Yeah, maybe you're right, Xposed is still in alpha version after all.. this is far from being a stable version. An anyways, I remember having problems with Xposed modules doing weird stuff with Jelly Bean too anyways, and deactivating a few at a time to see which was causing trouble. I remember "XInstaller" and "force fastscroll" being one of there.

I wiped my cache this morning and my phone booted, so maybe it's just on your phone, so one of your modules.

And yep, I find it annoying as well that we can't restore from recovery.. :( But at least we have a semi-working xposed now and we can flash files, better than we were in the previous months :D
[General Questions and Answers] tvladan:
I was on R16 before all this and that worked super OK. It was fast, stable, good battery life, no fc's, no worries ... So I have no ideea about this R21 ... This is one of the reasons I DO NOT LIKE updating stuff ... form my experience most of the updates only mess up things ... and if something is not broken do not fix it ... Unfortunately the russian root method does not work on R16 or I could not get it to work ...

just a bump to keep this alive.................... anyone managed it yet?

Just got my new DG700 lollipop and realising how much it needs rooting! App storage is abysmal, but the phone is great!
[General Questions and Answers] Nudeldampf:
You should read a few pages backwards :)

This method works definately. [MENTION=4913970]tvladan[/MENTION] is working on a simpler and better solution, but it is not finished yet.
[General Questions and Answers] mutanthifi:
looks a bit 'specialist' for a simple aircraft mechanic.......

I look forward to the simplified version, rooted all my androids so far, basically to get rid of bloatware (crap keyboards, email, browser etc) but always just using the phone. Re-partitioning seems sensible with this one - there are some apps I need on the phone itself

I will keep an eye out, when work and kids allow, although this thread moves VERY fast - can't believe how much extra chat (half of which I don't understand :eek: ) there is since I looked 2 days ago!
[General Questions and Answers] tvladan:
[MENTION=6948560]mutanthifi[/MENTION]

The re-partitioning we are talking about affects only the internal storage of the phone. The apps will be installed on the phone as before, only you'll get more space for apps and less space for media (pics, music, etc), but that is why we have sd-cards ... for media. The DOOGEE ppl stupidly formatted the internal storage with just 1Gb of space for system apps which our days (when facebook app takes around 200Mb or even more with messneger installed) the 1Gb is way to less.

Also 2 days ago this thread got alive because we found a safer and better way to root the phone. IF you do not want to repartition the internal storage and you have no need for a custom recovery and you only need root access than try this method using vRoot from the attachment or install KingUser App from market and try to root with that. I recommand before trying any of these 2 root methods to update the phone through it's internal OTA Update system to the latest build: R24 and then try to get root acces.

Meanwhile [MENTION=5208857]The H[/MENTION]appy gang ...

Had some problems with xPosed ... could not restore from TWRP, but I tried making a backup with xposed uninstalled and the recovery backups work flawlessly ... so my problems wit FC's and unable to restore backups were caused either by xposed framework either by one of the downloaded modules ... anyhoo ... tomorrow morning i am going fishing and i'll be back sunday so i won't be doing any more research / work into the ONE Flash situation ... but on monday I'll start again. ... Have a nice weekend all of you!!!
[General Questions and Answers] Nudeldampf:
Have fun fishing and a nice weekend too! :)
[General Questions and Answers] mutanthifi:
repartitioning would be an essential - or at least highly desirable!

however flashing custom ROMs etc is beyond what I can be arsed with!

The OTA update doesn't seem to find anything beyond r21 - says I am up to date etc

Has anyone had success with KingRoot on r21?
[General Questions and Answers] Nudeldampf:
Yes, KingRoot for r21 was the method we were using before we found the customized russian r21. Version 1.8.3 like linked in the thread before always worked flawlessly for me on the first or second try. Strange that there is no OTA for r24 for your phone..
[General Questions and Answers] NaturalBornCamper:
[MENTION=6948560]mutanthifi[/MENTION]

yep, just for root, there is a way as Nudelkampf says, just go on page 2 of this thread for instructions. As for repartitioning with none of the candy we're trying to have, I'm working on it, but today I have 2 friend's computers to fix so I'm a bit hard pressed. Will check again tonight.

[MENTION=4913970]tvladan[/MENTION], have fun friend! It's just you and me for now [MENTION=246113]nudel[/MENTION]kampf :P I really think I'm close to having a 6GB repartition scheme! Also, important: I think with our Russian rom, the rooted /system and our custom recovery, we cannot uninstall system applications without massive repercussions. It looks like as if the addresses pointing to where the system apps are bad and if you delete the "black hole" live wallpaper, it will delete other stuff and corrupt apps. So the keyboard is not working, or you cannot get in the screen of a SMS details, or some pages of settings are making the settings "close unfortunately". Can you test on your side if deleting system apps is messing things up? I don't know if what is causing this is

-The russian ROM

-The rooted /system

-The custom recovery

-Xposed

Did you try to uninstall anything [MENTION=6942647]Pepo1980[/MENTION]? And if you did without trouble, did you have the custom recovery and Xposed as well? Or just the sooted /system?
[General Questions and Answers] Nudeldampf:
Sure, just tell me where the folder for the live wallpaper is for example :)
[General Questions and Answers] NaturalBornCamper:
I did not delete manually, I deleted with "System App Manager" which always worked well in the past. But I did not try with titanium Backup, I will try later tonight when I'm back home :)

Just try to delete a few random system apps that you never use (Like the live wallpapers, google's one-time init, one key lock, etc.)
[General Questions and Answers] NaturalBornCamper:
So I failed miserably at repartitioning better. I know I have the right EBR1 and EBR2 formats, I have tried so many different calculations and whatever the way I go through, I always end up with the same exact result. I even verified in Linux with the command "disktype" to see the partitions of my files... I don't understand. It looks like Doogee is different and pops that stupid boot loop after the initial setup and I don't know where to look anymore, so I'm taking a break of flashing for now. Will try to write on XDA for help. I feel like the Russians did something special for their 4GB partition, other than just changing the EBRs like we do with every other MTK ever. Maybe it has something to do with the "format" command that we must execute in SP flash tool, that starts at the exact same address as the /data partition.

Anyways, as for deleting system apps, got news, you must use different applications to do your bidding. So with the russian R21, re-partitioned custom ROM, you must:

-delete system apps with Titanium bakcup

-Convert apps between user<->system app using "System App Manager" (free on Google play)

-Integrate updates into ROM again with "System App Manager"

That's it for now guys, nothing else I can do at the moment

HELP!

ok, so I rooted the phone (r21 & Kingroot), deleted some crap, put a new 64GB SD in and started the boring process of reinstalling apps and moving them to the SD, only I can't install them any more because there is 'insufficient storage'!

I have moved everything I have successfully installed to the SD so no 3rd party apps are internal, but still it won't let me install something as small as Opera!
[General Questions and Answers] NaturalBornCamper:
When you move to SD:

1-Only certain apps support it

2-The APK file is moved, but all the data is still in your phone, not on the SD card, so apps like Facebook use LOTS of storage place.

You solutions are:

-Integrate the updates of system apps (play store, google search, etc) to clear some data (right now, they take double the amount of space)

-move more applications to the SD card with a special ADB command "set-install-location"

-install Link2SD and partition your SD card to have lots more room for applications

-Download apps with the "APK manager / downloader" from google play store then force install them (I would not recommend this, you will end up without storage soon again)

-Install the custom ROM that we're all using here with more internal storage space.

Tell me what you want more info about and I'll help you
[General Questions and Answers] mutanthifi:
Thanks,

Integrating the updates sounds like a good idea - how?

Have any of you wonderful people put an idiot's guide to installing the custom ROM?

If not and that's too much grief, is there a way of partitioning the SD from the phone?
[General Questions and Answers] NaturalBornCamper:
Integrating updates:

Install this application: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flaki.systemappmanager&hl=en

Then you can filter applications by user_apps, system_apps, updated_apps. So click on the updated apps and you will see all the ones that have been updated. tap on them and select "Integrate update" for each applications. Then go to options and select "reboot". Make sure that "clear cache" and "clear dalvik cache" is selected. It works without "clear dalvik cache" for some applications, but better not take any chances with google play services and important apps like that.

Installing custom ROM:

There is a guide for installing the custom ROM yes, [MENTION=246113]nudel[/MENTION]kampf put it together about 6-7 pages back. For the moment it's our official guide until we have all the details we need from tvaladan and my repartition failed technique lol

Partition the SD card:

Yes you can do from the phone. I always did it from custom recovery but I think there are apps doing it. IT WILL DELETE EVERYTHING ON SD CARD, so make sure you put back all your apps in your phone and backed up all your music, movies, etc.

Looks like there are apps like this one doing it: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sylkat.AParted

Just make sure to have the correct partition type, here's what Link2SD says about the type you need:
[General Questions and Answers] mutanthifi:
THANKS!

the apps won't fit back on the phone in its tiny partition, but it's new and there's not much to lose other than reinstalling them
