I took the stock recovery and changed 1 byte in the middle of it and flashed it - it worked. This means the bootloader IS unlocked and signature checks are disabled. There must be a problem with the recovery itself. Maybe there's slightly different hardware in this model of phone?
[Android General] kirito9:
Alright, I'll look at it when I have time.
[Android General] kirito9:
The developer who ported the ROM left the on screen nav bar enabled in the build.prop file. You can remove it before flashing the ROM.

I have successfully rooted my phone which is pixi 4(5) 4G (5045x) but am unable to delete system bloated apps. I have tried using es file manager and system up remover but none couldn't. Please help because i don't want to install custom rom for the meantime.
[Android General] CVAngelo:
Have you enabled the root access setting on ES File Manager?

Frankly, the first think I do after rooting my device is VERIFY that I actually have full root. How do you know that you have full root access? Have you run a root checker app?

The second thing I do is down the Busy Box X app from the PlayStore and then click the install button. You need an extended Linux command set to have maximum utility of root apps.

Finally, if you want to easily remove system apps and control start-up apps, use SD Maid from PlayStore. You will need to select settings for App Control to display system apps. Then run the App Control module. That will allow you to individually select all the bloat and eliminate them forever.
[Android General] HIS YB:
i have run the check and it has been fully rooted and i have also granted permission to the es file manager . But i hv not installed busy box so am doing it now and i will give the feed back

---------- Post added at 11:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:50 AM ----------

Now i used the SD Maid pro but with no luck. The thing is i am able to delete the apps but after some minutes or after reboot then they are all restored i don't know why. I hv granted all the root permissions too.
[Android General] CVAngelo:
What is your "Enable OEM Unlock" setting in Developer Options? Take a look and let me know what it says.
[Android General] HIS YB:
It was off but i have enabled it now

---------- Post added at 11:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:43 PM ----------

I have enabled it but no change
[Android General] CVAngelo:
How did you root your device with OEM off? That's why nothing happened. Your bootloader was likely locked. You can't change anything in the system when the bootloader is locked.

How did you root your device? What procedure or app did you use?
[Android General] HIS YB:
I used the instructions provided by this thread and enabling OEM before rooting was never mentioned.

[Android General] lord_melchett:
Apologies if this is well-trodden ground, but I have tried rooting a Pixi 4(4) 4032 and have had the pre-warned softblock. I proceeded as advice was that CM13 would fix the issue, but it doesn't. I have tried downloading stock roms but none seem to install. When I try to install the CM13 or any other zip via TWRP it looks like there is a partition issue as there are many red results saying "failed to mount....". When trying to use the zip with a stock room and SP Flash tool the scatter file fails to load correctly seemingly for another partitioning issue (actually it also says no proper rom loaded) and you cannot load each individual item as it fails after loading the "boot" section. Any ideas as everything I have tried so far has failed!
[Android General] DragonFire1024:
I can't root mine. Net10, but the boot logo says TracFone. I used the Kingoroot for PC and after a few minutes, tells me 'root successful', installs it's super user app and when I tap it, I get 'no root.' no other rooting app works.
[Android General] CVAngelo:
Doesn't TracFone lock the bootloader on all its phones?

Hi I haven't seen this post until today so I didn't know about the problems about formatting this phone with spft . Yesterday I was following the instructions about flashing this phone, but i got a problem so I search how to fix it and I found a video where they suggested to use format+download so I did it and it went well but until Flash was done I got another problem with spft so I disconnected my phone and I tried to turn ir on but it didn't function so I get scared and I tried to connect it to the pc and the pc recognized the phone but it still wanted to turn on so I try another way (always in spft) and I could Flash the rom, my phone turn on but it got a problem and it Is that the navigation bar doesn't work correctly, it Is like sometimes it doesn't recognized them.

Hi All

I have an Alcatel Pixi 4 (5) 4g 5045Y model and while formatting/downloading a new rom it looks like I accidently formatted the preloader as well resulting in a bricked device. Is there any way to force load the preloader back through spft or anything else ? I do have a rom available from reading it back in spft but as yet unable to split it into the separate files/images.

After searching around it looks like there is a method by joining the GND to a Test point so windows device manager recognises the phone properly but these points are not marked up on the pcb and trying with a multi-meter doesn't appear to keep it connected through the usb connection.

Any help appreciated.

Steps:

0) Copy "SR1-SuperSU-v2.78-SR1-20160915123031.zip" on your SD card for later flashing

1) Start SP Flash Tool and on "Scatter-loading File" select the MT6735M_Android_scatter.txt you downloaded from here

2) White and green lines should appear, control that everything is unticked and tick only the "recovery" line

3) In the "Location" column of the "recovery" line choose "ctr-6.6-5045D-new.img" file. It's INSIDE the zip file here attached, don't flash zip directly!

4) Press "Download" button

5) Turn off your phone, pull off the battery and connect it to the PC USB port

6) Phone should be detected by SPFT, the line at the bottom should become red first and then yellow and in the end a green circle should appear

7) Now recovery should be flashed! Turn on phone on recovery mode (Power button + Volume UP)

8) Flash Chainfire SuperSU either using ADB sideload or from SD

9) REBOOT

Now you should be rooted! :fingers-crossed:

Kirito, let me know if something is wrong in this guide. Thanks again for your help! :good:[/QUOTE]

Im struggling with step 8. when in normal android mode adb works just fine and device is recognized... but after step 7 i couldnt flash the chaine fire supersu cause the phone cant find the zip file and also cant mount sd card. adb also refused to connect

[Android General] CVAngelo:
Typically, the only way to force the Preloader back from the on-board storage is to jump certain points on the motherboard, but I don't know how to do that and I've never seen the electrical diagrams for these Alcatel phones published anywhere online.

If you somehow get the chance to have the MTK Preloader driver recognized by the Device Manager then of course you'll then be able to flash the phone. But you do NOT need to split a ROM into individual files to flash it to the device. In SPFT you can use the Write Memory tab to flash an entire ROM to the phone. However, I don't know if the SPFT Write Memory feature works with these latest phones.

Hello, please could you reupload rom for model 8050D? The link is offline, I need it urgently cause I downloaded a rom from needrom.com for this model but after flash with sp flashtool i' ve got only a white and black screen :crying:

Maybe the rom was not original stock firmware, i don' t know...I' ve tried first with the "download" method, then i' ve tried with "format all+download" with the same result:some strange black and white screen :(. The phone is not dead, I read more and more about sp flashtool so I know till the phone boots it can be restored but I absolutely need original stock firmware for this.

Sorry for my bad english and thanks in advance

Did you try mounting from both internal and external sd?
[Android General] bswann:
Thanks you. One more question, under Devoloper Options, it allows me to enable the OEM unlock. Does that mean I can unlock the bootloader in ABD? Thanks again.
[Android General] kirito9:
Does the PC detect the device when plugged in?
[Android General] kirito9:
You should be able to but Tracfone apparently doesn't want anyone modifying these devices so they have locked the bootloader access. So even if you enable the option there's nothing that can be done.
[Android General] kirito9:
Get the twrp image from the first post. Boot to fastboot and boot the recovery (fastboot boot name-of-recovery.img) and then go to wipe > format data and format the data. Reboot afterwards

See the rooting guide the for 5023 and look specifically for this part of the guide

Specific Root for Pixi 4 Plus Power (5023)

For the Pixi 4 Plus Power (5023), you cannot flash the recovery using the commands below, you have to first boot the recovery with fastboot boot twrp-3.0.3-0-5023.img. Then make a backup of ALL your partitions then you root with this SuperSU. After rooting, reboot to the system and install a root explorer and go to the system partition and remove this file "recovery-from-boot.p". Copy the TWRP recovery (see attached post) to your sdcard/external, install flashify and flash the twrp-3.0.3-0-5023.img to get permanent root.

I absolutely need to know if there can be a solution to solve this, because the phone is not mine and my friend wants it back as soon as possible. I' ve read about miracle box tool, but i have to buy the dongle key, right? Is not there an other solution( maybe using mirale box without dongle)?

Did you try the mobile upgrade tool? It's the best when trying to get the stock ROM back for your device. You can post the links but just app spaces within them.

[Android General] claudiopasho:
I flashed Chainfire's SuperSU directly without typing the code in the terminal to check if .supersu is in /data (which, by the way it wasn't) and I wiped all of my partitions except External SD Card.Problem is, I don't have an OS and I can't get it to install one.
