Greetings masters,

I own N939Sc from Lazada Indonesia. Firmware is 1.05 (N939Sc_ASCommon_1.05). Android version 5.1.1

Spent the last 4 nights including new year eve figuring out how to root it and still no luck. I see some guys from Indonesia and Vietnam (which I suppose got the similar model from Lazada Vietnam) haven't seen victory as well. In fact, the problem I encountered is similar with tonytee and has2. So for common purpose I'm gonna write down my progress as brief as possible; might find a clue for us figuring it out.

My first try was following yourmate's guide http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=63316291&postcount=289

Activated Developer Options, switched on OEM Unlock and USB Debugging. The problem is at cmd "fastboot oem unlock". It is supposed to give "OKAY" response. Instead, "FAILED (remote: oem unlock is not allowed)".

Even though I'm absolutely sure I had switched on OEM Unlock.

Second method I use is supercowz's Patch Version 4 for ZTE V5 PRO official Fw 1.35 from http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=63371647&postcount=394 which is also published in needrom http://www.needrom.com/download/zte-v5pro-n939st/

Unsuccessful using first method, from supercowz's I learned that the firmware might be the cause. So I flashed firmware 1.35 hoping a prospect result. Instead, it failed and the recovery gave me this message

Can't install this package (Mon Sep 21 23:04:43 CST 2015) over newer build (Mon Nov 30 20:32:09 CST 2015).
E:Error in /sideload/package.zip
(Status 7)

But I continued to the next step anyway, running "1.install TWRP Root Gapps.bat"

I followed the instructions, the patch ran well, until the OEM Unlock procedure. Similar with the first method's issue; I got FAILED response.

But the patch continued. I guess it doesn't have action for responding FAILED outcome.

pic:

When the patch is finished the phone is supposed to reboot to the new TWRP recovery. Instead, it stays at fastboot (ZTE logo).

Tried both methods in both Windows 7 and 8.1 ; USB 2.0

That's all, I hope I give you enough info
[Android General] tonytee:
Can u show me the details step by step pls?

In other trick, it's always say OEM unlock not allowed

And when I apply update 1.35 zip file... "aborted"

I had a same issue. Did i try everything, 4 kind of roms, calibrating, dalvik and cache wipe etc, but the handy dont be a good. Im sent back to seller.

Did you play games when in the phone in silicone case? I think mine is overheated, and get some hardware injure. Im install some voltage monitoring apps from GApps, and im saw, the voltage is changing continously, there is a big changes 100-250 mV jumping up and down. Im sure some ic-s thats measurings battery voltage, have a fault.

[Android General] pazvanti:
This beta seems to have more problems than 3.1. I don't recommend installing it.
[Android General] jurben:
Use qpst to flash full rom, right?

Then use supplied bat file to flash twrp. (The new flashed rom can be oem unlocked). And use twrp to root (install supersu).

Am i right?
[Android General] ippatt:
Yes,,, that's alright. Indonesian stock rom can't be unlocked if you doesn't flashing Russian rom first.

Hi guys

After 3 months sucking im really hate this phone. I never buy again zte bull****.
[Android General] joanr:
I think it's a great phone, with an snapdragon 615 with good price. The problem is the rom ZTE is very bad, now I use MIUI7 beta. In the past I have had many mediatek smartphones, I read that Meizu with Mediatek processor and Flyme goes well, maybe it is time to return to Mediatek, the snapdragon's processors consume so much battery ...
[Android General] Tengis:
Ya I'm not very happy with this phone either. Unless some decent roms come out soon then I'm jumping ship.

I wasted 3 months too!

The battery is faulty, and i got $50 back from ETstar.

The problem is that; battery percentage jumps around, the phone shuts down occasioanlly, and battery stats programs thinks that the battery capacity is 2000mah.

Does anybody have any idea how can i fix this? I have tried 3 different roms. Currently i have the latest russian rom, ZTE Blade X9.

Then i have to buy a new phone. Any suggestions are welcome.

This looks like hardware problem, you should request phone replacement from ETstar not some 50$ recompensation.

I have 2 phones (my and wife) for 2 months with supercows 1.35 rom, cleared from all Chinese crap and we dont have any problems with battery.
[Android General] mumutum:
I know its a hardware problem. But at the end of the aliexpress dispute, i had to pay the shipping cost back to china which was $40. It would drive the cost of the phone too high, and plus ETstar claimed that if there are cosmetic marks they would not take the phone back etc...

the issue I encountered in this method is my laptops couldn't detect QHSUSB_BULK. but strangely my office PC detects it. after that I had no problem following the instructions which are pretty brief.

How to unbrick after OTA

I get the phone from Aliexpress from ETstar.

I did the OTA.

I bricked.

I downloaded the "N939St V1.34版本" from www ztehn com / download.php (click on the side left menu, select the N939St（移动联通双4G） , select most recent full update. Around 1 GB, slow to download)

I got a N939St_update.zip that I put on SD Card.

Booted the phone to recovery (Vol+ and Power), Recovery is in English, selected last option "apply aupdate from sdcard"

Then "reboot system now" once it was applied.

Phone rebooted. Waited a good 5mn.

Unbricked!! but in Chinese. Went to Settings and changed to English.

No Google Apps, no Google Market.

But phone is up to date (Android 5.1 - N939St_CNUnicom_1.34)

Now I need idea on how to root it and add Google Apps back. Any suggestion ?
