Great news indeed! Going to try it out tonight

It's really awesome! I have been searching high and low for the rooting of iMan Victor. I have got mine last week and still wondering how to root it.

By the way, do you guys facing the NFC compatibility issue? I couldn't get my Android Pay as well as the NFC Card reader working.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mywish69:
Oh no, I just tried to flash it and it failed. Mine is a 4GB ROM 64GBRAM model. Does it matter? Need assistance from bro and sis here. The steps that I went through were as follows:

1) Downloaded both the files by max74926.

2) Flash it with SP Flash Tool v5.1644 by selecting both the scattered file and recovery img downloaded in step 1).

3) Click on Download on SP Flash Tool and plug in the microUSB to iMan Victor while pressing the volume + button.

4) A red Download DA 100% bar appeared followed by an error box ERROR: STATUS_PRELOADER_INVALID (0xC0030004).

Any clue? What did I do wrongly?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] max74926:
mine is 3Gb ram 32GB rom, I don't know if this matter

you need to click download in SPFlash Tool, then plug the phone switched off whitout pressing any button.

be sure to have installed the right driver for your OS. I use win7 because in win10 the driver do not worked propely for me.

for the NFC problem I do not use it, I try read a card and it worked but trying to emulate a card and the error is secure element not found, may be that is an hardware lack, that is needed also for Android Pay
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mywish69:
Thank you max74926 for your fast response.

I am thinking could it be due to my driver issue. I clicked download in SPFlash Tool, then plug the phone switched off without pressing any button, there was no response. However if I plug the phone switched off with pressing the vol+ button, there was a red bar appeared with 100% then prompted me with error message.

I tried to follow the guide which you attached with the link. I am still confused how do you get the stock recovery from our device? May be you can assist me with that. Thank you!

Tried reinstalling vcom Driver, but still not working. I tried flashing my old zopo980 phone with the same computer and FlashTool without issue.

Not sure where can I get the Scatter file for 4GB variant.

I have downloaded the ROM and extracted just the Scatter file out. It still no response when I plug in my phone. Very strange ~~~

Not sure if there is any ROM different for 4GB and 3GB version.

I am so desperate to rooting my iMan Victor....

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mywish69:
I have waited for so long for my returned of my iMan Victor from Geekbuying. It took me 4 months to receive it as the backlight kaput on my very 1st day of usage. I tried to follow through the steps and it did not work out again this time. My PC is unable to detect my phone. I am very sure that it is not due to the USB driver issue as I did the ROM flash for my old phone Zopo 980 (MTK processor); innos D6000 (Qualcomm processor) & Google Pixel C (Tegra processor) successfully in this computer.

---------- Post added at 09:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:32 PM ----------

I tried using ADB Fastboot command to unlock the bootloader. I could not unlock it from the phone. It prompted press Vol + to unlock bootloader and Vol- to remain lock. I tried pressing Vol+ and it has no response at all. I tried pressing Vol- and it proceeded to lock the bootloader. I noticed from the Developer Option, there is an option OEM unlocking, I turned it ON , with the USB debugging ON. It doesn't help too. Not sure what is going wrong.... gonna give up :(

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mywish69:
Dear st.zboril, thank you so much for your offer! I just read your message today.

I have given up my hope on this phone as it was locked and required "Privacy Protection Password" after I removed my SIM cards fromo the phone. I tried going to recovery mode and performed a factory reset. It was not successful. It still prompted me to enter the Privacy Protection Password. I googled and understood that the only solution is to flash the ROM which I had problem doing so.

Last night, I tried to flash the ROM again with my Win10 PC. I re-formatted my PC and installed the MTK driver. I tried several times connecting my phone to my PC and it detected the pre-loader port but failed consistently. I kept doing it with pressing various combinations on the phone's buttons and out of sudden it was connected and flashed successfully. At last, my phone is alive!

I am puzzled with what did I do differently to get the phone detected and flashed the ROM successfully. I tried to repeating the flashing process for more than 30 times, but not successful at all.

I was guessing could it be due to WIN10 PC speed too fast or compatibility issue?

I dug out my old obsolete laptop (WinXP), which took about 3 minutes to get into the Desktop screen.

I installed the MTK driver and tried to flash the ROM. To my surprise, at the very 1st connection was successful and I managed to flash the ROM. I repeated the same process few times and it was just so consistent.

For those whom have been facing the same problem as me, you may try out with older computer running with Windows XP.

Hope this information helps!

Voila! My phone is now rooted.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ccgarnaal:
guys,

I recently smashed the screen of my iman victor. And ordered a replacement screen.

The seller claims I need new firmware and send me the following link to 900mb file on filehub.

Why would I need to reinstall the firmware after a screen replacement? I just can't think of any logical reason.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x.akshit:
actually there is a logical reason to that which is that the drivers need to be updated so you can use the brightness functionality.

Hit the thumbs up button please.

Reset IMEI

The above links for rooting the iman victor are no longer active. Anyone have new sources?

I replaced the screen of my iman victor.

Because of this I installed a more recent stock ROM.

After the ROM installation my IMEI numbers became null.

I tried MTK engineer to restore IMEI, but the CDS information option is not available.:confused:

I'm hoping rooting and then either chameleon app or https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=52256593#post52256593

Any help would be very appreciated.
[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ScottIsMyName:
Trying to help my dad out with his Pixel C. He was complaining about constant bootlooping after Android Nougat was installed on his tablet. I did some remote trouble shooting with him, and nothing seemed to help. I instructed how to do a factory reset. He did this, reinstalled his apps, and a few days later the bootloops started happening again. He ended up getting an RMA from Google.

New device came today. I added his account, all was fine. Restored his apps. Again, all is fine. used some random apps, again, all is fine. Opened Chrome. Bootloop. Cannot get it to stop bootlooping unless I turn off wifi BEFORE it connects to wifi. Sometimes you don't have a chance, it connects before you disable it. If i disable wifi, I can use the tablet and it is fine (well as much as you can do on a non internet connected device). As soon as wifi connects, it bootloops. I have removed his google account, disabled all syncing, removed almost every single app, yet the problem remains.

Does anyone have any idea what else I can do?

I want to grab a trace of whatever is causing the crash, but not sure of the best way/app that will let me do that.

[Galaxy Tab 4 General] AJPuzon:
Most Samsung users reported that V4A is not working after upgrading to lollipop cause of the unswitchable SELinux, switching SELinux mode compromises the security of the device, so here is the solution without flashing custom kernel:

Note:

*This method should be used with Systemless SU(not magisk) installed*

Con's:

Not working with some music apps with built in equalizers

Steps:

1. Assuming that you have installed systemless root, but still check if /su/bin/supolicy exists...* WORKING IS NOT GUARANTEED ON OTHER SYSTEMLESS METHODS eg. Magisk*

2. Download the latest build of V4A in this thread:*https://www.google.com.ph/url?sa=t&s...AMMb_9I4inOJ-Q

3. Install the apk as a system app and reboot, after open Root Explorer and create su.d folder in /system partition , set permissions rwxr-xr-x

4. Create 50viper.sh inside the folder and edit and paste:

#! /system/bin/sh

/su/bin/supolicy --live "allow mediaserver mediaserver_tmpfs:file { read write execute };"

5. Save and set permissions rwxr-xr-x

6. Now launch V4A and grant permissions and install drivers.*

7. After finished installing of drivers, reboot

8. Disable SoundAlive in settings and reboot.

Tested with my device: SM - T235(Galaxy Tab 4 7.0 LTE)
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] Mezabaru:
I'm going to take it tab has zero magisk support currently for Tab 4? Thank you for your guide though, Viper can always be a pain sometimes so its great your actively posting working methods!
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] AJPuzon:
Tab 4 has magisk support but i cannot test and look for the path of supolicy when the device is rooted with magisk...magisk root did not work for me in the first place so i came back to regular systemless root...
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] AJPuzon:
But you can change the path of the supolicy in the .sh file tho im not sure if that's gonna work ☺
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] AJPuzon:
Not really, IDK if this tab has a support or can't just support it. In my experience flashing Magisk on this device results in nothing, it gives me an error about directory does not exist when i flash modules, and when i look for it, its true it doesnt exist. IDK why.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] spalnndsstest:
did anyone notice the strange waving all xiaomi cameras have?

when recording a video with any camera from a xiaomi phone, the video looks to have wavy strange deformations constantly,

i dont know if thats the optical stabilization that ruins the whole video, the constant autofocus or the rolling shutter of the camera, but i remember this effect since the xiaomi mi2s and still present in the mi5, it totally makes me mad,

50$ phones like the blackview A8 return a way much better video recording result than a mi5,

is there any damn way to disable this stupid wavvy effect? i am prone to think its the ois rather than a rolling shutter effect from the sensor,

but probably both work to ruin the video.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] shaneel1491:
If you try FreeDcam there are different methods of OIS control in the settings, maybe that may help remove the waviness?

Okay, I'm going to assume you know how to or have done unlocked your bootloader from the htcdev site and flashed twrp recovery. To root, you have to flash SuperSU zip file through twrp. Make sure to download from http://xdaforums.com/apps/supersu/stable-2016-09-01supersu-v2-78-release-t3452703 click on the download button under TWRP / FlashFire installable ZIP (also make sure to download the zip file into the root folder of your sd card and not into a sub folder). After you've done that, boot your phone into recovery mode, click on install, locate the zip file and click it, swipe to flash. After the flashing is done, reboot your phone and it is rooted. I'm assuming you are doing this for HTC desire 626s. Good luck

you could compile a kernel 3.10.103 for cm13? I can not
