What king of mode do you use to connect phone to your computer ? Multimedia mode ?

have you tried kingroot? it rooted my HT7, should work for pro version
[Device Reviews and Information] jan177:
FIRST do you have

HT7 PRO

?

If so than you can not use the spanish or italian procedure.

I guess you have

HT7

1.08 ROM than you can use it.

You can use multimedia mode to copy files. TWRP just in phone storage. no deeper

Thanks for your answer.

I did it and everything remains the same.

When I lock the screen I lose the signal, it didn't happen before.

I think the problem comes from erased the nvdata, protec_s and protec_f partitions. So, can someone do a backup of this partitions with TWRP and send me it?

Is there a list of what needs to be removed? This thread is pretty long now and various info is all over the place, and there's posts on how to install 2.0.7 and no mention of having malware left to remove. I just ran 360 security and it says unilauncher is rogueware and says this :

Malicious behaviour

Forces autostart

Contains ads

(to remove this in-ROM malware thoroughly, you need to update or change your ROM. Otherwise, you may force stop it to reduce the risk)

Sound like there's no way to remove it, I'm a bit nervous about force stopping it, as it's still there and would it just start again next reboot? If I force stop it do I need another launcher?

[Device Reviews and Information] Rockyfancino:
–Someone please tell me about the battery life of HT7.

–Don't you see the earpiece & charging port as an issue? (I'm saying this because what if you charger or adapter gets damaged)

–What about the 1gb ram (arent you expirencing difficulties)??

–Lastly, how long does a full charge takes please?
[Device Reviews and Information] madprofessorus:
well,the different audio jack is an issue, however the cost is so low so you don't consider much the disadvantages. battery life is good,of course it depends on the use,with heavy use one charge is sure,about ram,well,if you don't have many apps running in the background you won't have problem.
[Device Reviews and Information] kilmer.trotter:
-i set the auto turn-off/turn on, and with the use of a short sleep mode, my phone sometimes run for 4 days with one charge. but i don't use the phone too hard (no gaming, no movies, etc).

-the earpiece/usb port problem is a known issue. you can order a jack converter, and can customize any micro usb cable (just cut/remove a little piece from the cable socket).

-the ram seems to be enough, depends on usage. android 5.1 manages the memory quite well

-the full charge takes about 5 hours (i got a battery stat logger, i can send you stats, my last charging was on 2016.04.06 18:01, ends on 23:04, from 10%, now i have 34%)

HOMTOM HT7 bootlloop showing NO COMMAND!!!

It seems easier than it looks, my homtom ht 7 bootloop problem hasn't been resolved despite the fact that I tried SP FLASH TOOL .

What I noticed when using SP FLASH TOOL:

(1) Unidentified USB (MT6*** Preloading problem) I.e homtom ht7 USB driver can't be successfully installed on Window 7 vista since HOMTOM HT7 shows 'NO COMMAND' on the screen.

(2) I have downloaded a lot of drivers (USB) in order to make SP flash tool recognise it, but none works.

Please, how may I resolve this!

Had it been there is a way to restore homtom ht7 to normal (HT7 v1.1.2) from SD card, it would have been better.

I tried to use another stock ROM (v2.0.1) but installation was aborted!

I resolved/restored rooted Lenovo A536 from bootloop problem 'NO COMMAND' on this website. Please, HELP!!!

succes with rooting this phone and deleteting all (I hope ) malware

first I update from 1.0.7 to 1.1.2. with stock firmware using SP flash tool app in windows, (to get my phone connected to windows 10 and to be able to flash with SP Flash Tool app I needed to "Disable Driver Signature Verification". so be aware of that to.) after that I used that spanish site info to root a 1.1.2 stock firmware, and after that I made update from TWRP to 1.1.4 version from that rusian site 4pda ru topic 706050 & post #1196, like someone say on doogeemobile site "my head hearts" after reading a lot of google translate on russian site, and in the end, based on info from the net (here and russian site) I deleted all that crap (malware), now it seems to work much better and I think I got a clean phone.

This is what erase (with total commander)

same of them I do not have it, probably because I go to 1.1.4 with firmware already modified. (if you have app to add to this list please do).

On the russian site they say they have TWRP 3.0.0 , but I do not manage to download, yet (seems to be removed). :good:

Almost forgot, another good recommendation that I found and and followed is to change protective film from screen that came with the phone with a tempered glass one , it work much better on touch part, otherwise you will think your phone is broken that bad will behave your phone after update.

Another cool info from "Rusia" is this code

That enabling or disabling of frequencies is specific to your country , what frequencies use your operator for 3G in your country.
[Device Reviews and Information] podremio:
json30, thanks for the info, but why didn't you change from 1.0.7 to 1.1.4 directly with TWRP? any problem? it's necessary to use flash tools first to change to 1.1.2?

Thanks in advance.

Edit: At the russian forum I've read now that it's dangerous to change firmware from 1.0.6, 1.0.7, 1.0.8 to 1.12 or 1.1.4.

For now I'm staying with my 1.0.7 rooted and with malware eliminated.
[Device Reviews and Information] EpicedeDune:

malware is gone, [MENTION=916447]jonson[/MENTION]30 : where have you find the 1.1.4, i find the 1.1.2 ?

[Device Reviews and Information] podremio:
At Russian forum you'll find the 1.1.4 and many more info about the smartphone:

http : / / 4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=706050&st=0#entry46149192

(Put this web link without spaces)
[Device Reviews and Information] json30:
I go with 1.1.2 first and then with 1.1.4 mainly because of TWRP, on russian site there some warnings about what version of firmware you have and what version of TWRP to use, and spanish site has TWRP for version 1.1.2 , that is used in that tutorial, so I want not to risk to not work on my first try.

That is the reason for what I made update to 1.1.2 first.

But after what I read on the net is not easy to brick your phone, if you have an original firmware, it is very easy to restore to that firmware with SP Flash Tools app.

Yes, I have the 1.0.7 rom and I had no problem to install twrp and after this to root the phone with the instructions of the Spanish site that I've posted. I think that you are doing something wrong, translate and read the instructions carefully, many of us has proved successfully.

very very thank you:) after translated many russian posts, translated the spanish site, tried 2-3 times the twrp install, it came to my mind, that you translated the spanish into italian. now i translated your italian site too, and you saved me with this: "Onde incappare anche voi nello stesso errore che ho fatto per ben due volte, dovrete copiare i due file.zip nella microSD e la cartella TWRP nella memoria del telefono." :D i did the same too.

so, this was my mistake: the two zip goes to the external_sd (micro sd), and the TWRP directory goes to the phone memory (internal sd).
