I've searched and can't figure out what the straight answer is. I have an ATT Tilt and want to upgrade to WM 6.1, however I would also like to use Live messenger chat and hotmail sync. Do both work under 6.1? I've seen conflicting posts about wether chat works- is anyone using it on ATT? I realize messenger doesn't come with the build of 6.1 supplied by ATT.

[General Questions and Answers] giubenez:
Dear community,

I have a doogee S96 pro, I'm from Italy, and I installed TWRP from the unofficaltwrp guide.

Now I'm no more able to boot, the phones goes directly to the recovery.

Probably magisk was no able to patch the system and to disable the tm verity (avb). I have a super partition, and from what I saw the fstab is inside the vendor partition inside super.

Doogee does not provide stock roms, so I cannot restore the phone as factory settings, that's why I open this thread.

Is someone available to help me booting into Android or available to give me the stock boot/recovery img? It's a fast and safe procedure, I can give more details on how to do.

Thank you!
[General Questions and Answers] Ankiseth:
Dear @giubenez I had a similar problem. But after I got in touch with doogee support they sent me the firmware. I want to share it with you and with any other person that wants to ROOT THE DOOGEE S96 PRO

The following link is the firmware and upgrade tool. Please open and download.

Please note that if your computer system is French you need to change the name of the downloaded file.

Spoiler content hidden.

When upgrading the firmware, please do not select the 'Format All+Download' option

When flashing the phone, please set up the software first, turn off the phone, and then connect the phone to the computer.

Best wishes
[General Questions and Answers] giubenez:
Wow! thank you!!!

You saved... us!

Why doogee does not respond to me? why they not post the firmware on the forum? WTF
[General Questions and Answers] Ankiseth:
@giubenez Im very happy to contribute something. IDK why doogee doesnt list this firmware in their website. I was very lucky to receive an answer to my emails.

Also I successfully rooted my S96 PRO, but I learned a few things in the process that might be helpful to you or anyone trying to root this model.

1) After flashing the boot.img (using magisk method). The device went into a boot loop. I could not enter into recovery mode either. I discovered vbmeta was responsible for the boot loop.

I solved this by flashing an empty vbmeta file.

fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

You can download the vbmeta.img file I used HERE

2) After flashing vbmeta, the device finally booted and the root was done. But the first time, I noticed all the internal storage folders and files were encrypted. (I know this is normal when you browse files through TWRP, but it happened to me while using the phone in the first boot)

I solved that by wiping > Format Data in TWRP

3) Here you can find the files I used to install TWRP and remove the orange state notification on boot: LINK "Credits to www.getdroidtips.com"

[General Questions and Answers] giubenez:
btw a couple of days after your post, another user posted the same folder on https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=1010578&st=340.

I rooted the phone by using the 4pda method (i.e. flashing super.img, boot.img, vbmeta.img). After that I flashed twrp and it was fine. Everything was working.

After that I downloaded the OTA update and the phone is no more able to boot, simply goes to TWRP. I tried formatting data, dalvik and cache but the situation is always the same: when i try to boot i go to the recovery. Any idea? Thank you
[General Questions and Answers] giubenez:
Can you write a tutorial? Have you used SP flash tool?

Thank you!
[General Questions and Answers] giubenez:
I solved in this way:

>fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

(with the empty vbmeta

>fastboot.exe flash recovery recovery.img

(with the stock recovery)

>fastboot reboot

after that the update attempted to start and failed, the phone then boot to android.

The updates always failes after that, so I disabled them.
[General Questions and Answers] giubenez:
this is why the update fails..is it because I used the the Russian super img?

View attachment 5251929

#edit: it was because I flashed the wrong recovery. With the correct one, i still have issues with the update: md5 chechsum controll is not passed and the update aborts.

I don't care, I prefer a rooted phone without the updates.

[General Questions and Answers] giubenez:
I can't get what problem are you facing. I unlocked and rooted my s96 pro.

If you describe your issue i can help you solving it.

However, i found very risky to root the phone, if you plan to do the ota updates avoid TWRP since it'll make you bootloop at the moment you try to install the update.

The only way to solve it is to flash the stock recovery through adb.
[General Questions and Answers] mittkonto:
So.. yeah.

I have recently procured this device and want to install twrp, and stock and/or test a gsi and in what capacity the phone works with one of those.

Enabled both developer mode & the usb debug mode and adb devices lists the device.

N.B; the supplied s96pro cable does not seem to carry data, "presumably" because doogee is cheapskates on cables, as well in the support department. I had to use my sony headphone cable. Go figure, its consequential at least, so there's that.

In any case, read this thread and have downloaded all files, including the apparently new stock rom that is listed since yesterday in the evidently wholesome user Ankiseth's link above.

Questions:

In the 4pda link there are some instructions, specifically the adb command with the boot.img, however.. the links seems to be dead. What to do?

A) Can I first do the vbmeta command and then use our lord and savior Ankiseth's twrp recovery file and follow a generic "Case II: Devices with A/B partition scheme" mentioned in this xda twrp guide?

B) Hope that some other wholesome user share the boot.img file?

(Or, can I use the one in the zip file 'S9S88A7.DGE.DOOGEE.HB.HJ.AYYDVFAZ.1203.V3.04' ?)

-

After twrp is accessible can I use twrp/adb and install either the mentioned shared rom and any gsi for that matter?

I use linux and sure there is spflash, but the adb & twrp combo "subjectively feels" as a more stable way of doing things.
[General Questions and Answers] mittkonto:
Update 2. Got both twrp and magisk going. Now to figure out if I can install a gsi.

Update, got spflashtool working and used the latest stock rom mentioned in my previous post.

However.

I patched the boot.img from said stock rom in magisk and also flashed twrp-recovery with fastboot.

No luck. Magisk seems not to be installed and the usual twrp gui does not show, seems to be the stock recovery. Got a orange state though.

Hi, I'm having problems with the scatter file, when I try to load it in flash tool, it says me that is not valid. Error: 8417.

I tried with 3.02, 3.03 and 3.04.

Actually I have the phone in a bootloop and I can't go to fastboot or recovery

EDIT: Solved, using the last version of SP flash tool, I tried 3 older versions, but they didn't work.

Now im trying to relock bootloader or root the phone, but I can't go for them, flashing stock firmware didn't lock it, and im trying using cmd/powershell, but it doesn't work either.

Flashing it using Format all + download could work?

Hello everyone, do you have any advice for me? I also have a Doogee S96 Pro. Unfortunately there is still an email on it that I can't easily remove because of the FRP protection. It's from my customer because unfortunately I can't find it anymore. The phone is still almost new and I also have the original box with the IMEI here. Are there any tips that I can sell the cell phone again and use it with a new email address? I have already tried a lot of information from YT. Was able to bypass the FRP and enter my own email but after rebooting the google service keeps spinning all the time and won't stop..... Otherwise you can just use the phone as a paperweight :-(

Hallo zusammen, habt ihr einen Rat für mich? Ich habe auch ein Doogee S96 Pro. Leider ist noch eine Email drauf, die ich wegen des FRP-Schutzes nicht einfach entfernen kann. Es ist von meinem Kunden, weil ich es leider nicht mehr finden kann. Das Telefon ist noch fast neu und ich habe auch die Originalverpackung mit der IMEI hier. Gibt es Tipps, dass ich das Handy wieder verkaufen kann und man es mit einer neuen E-Mail-Adresse nutzen kann. Ich habe schon viele Infos von YT ausprobiert. Konnte das FRP umgehen und meine eigene E-Mail eingeben, aber nach dem Neustart dreht sich der Google-Dienst die ganze Zeit und hört nicht auf..... Sonst können Sie das Telefon nur als Briefbeschwerer verwenden :-(

it's unclear what you have tried, which tools used, and in what condition the device is. if you can reach developer options enable oem unlocking, that will disable FRP. remove all google accounts and perform factory reset from settings, that is sufficient for sale.

Hi giubenez i have a problem now my s96 pro is stock in boot loop .... I dont know what to do
[General Questions and Answers] giubenez:
what did you do?

If you install TWRP and you start the OTA update it will fail since TWRP is not able to manage that scripts. If you started the update you have to flash the stock recovery (via adb push i think) and the update will start. Once the update is done, you can flash again the TWRP.

If you edited the super partition, you probably have to flash the entire super partition vai adb.

Let me know.

The only thing is that in Japan, almost every phone is tied to a specific cellphone provider, like Docomo, Softbank, etc. The place selling the phone I found insists it is SIM-unrestricted, i.e., it is not required that I use the provider who originally sold the phone. However, I wonder if this applies to rooting and replacing the OS.

What do you think? Is it likely I can replace the OS on this phone or not?

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JonB_Fire:
Hello! First post here so please be gentle.

I am trying to resurrect a bricked Kindle Fire 5th Gen (Model: SV98LN) after a failed attempt at rooting using a Root Junkie tool. I was trying to get vanilla Android on it. Anyway.. it's apparently dead, showing a black screen and no attempts to turn it on have succeeded. It's probably hard bricked.

I've done quite a bit of reading and tried various things:

- making up a factory cable for fastboot mode

- installed Mediatek SP drivers so as to reflash the MMC (on Win10)

- tried to access the Mediatek 65xx Preloader on a Linux machine using aftv2-tools

..so far nothing is working, but I do see the Mediatek device appear on the Windows device manager momentarily (it disconnects with "failed to read device descritor" or some such) and also I can occasionally see it on the Linux box with lsusb. But that's all.

Could someone offer a bit of advice, please? I know there's a lot of information out there about this but I've spent a solid day ploughing through threads, dead ends and other unuseful information and I can't find any solutions myself.

Many thanks

Dear SuperUsers,

I have managed to root my new Phone via TWRP and Magisk - THX to XDA and affiliates! 🙌

Now I am on the mission to create me the optimal environment for me everyday needs.

I have made already two TWRP backups:

-Stock with TWRP recovery

-Stock with TWRP recovery&App, Magisk Manager + SafetyNet addon in order to successfully pass Safetynet and AFWall+

Now I am planning my third Backup and probably last Backup - btw. why Titanium Backup, when TWRP seems to offer the same features (side quest)

1. My next mission is to remove all the bloatware.

2. Cut internet access to system apps and Apps that do not need to communicate without my permission (I have disabled all via AFWall and subsiquently approve the Apps atm)

3. Substitute Apps like Youtube, Chrome, Brower, GoogleMaps, Gmail, etc. with less Corporate-friendly Apps.

4. Disable most Ads - via AdAway?

Now your experience and knowledge comes into place! Where can I find a repository or the bits of information, which are relevant for my third backup?

I have found the bloatware remover tool by agnath18 but my Phone is rooted, so I assume I could cut some more weight?

What is more, I have found some App alternatives like Brave, Snaptube, Sygic that seem to do the trick. However, I have not found any thread on XDA or similar that would offer me a side by side comparison with less corporate friendly to the preinstalled.

Is there a site outside of XDA that offers me what I am search for? I assume that XDA is heavily focused by the coast guard which hunts harmless pirates and freedom seekers instead of going after the true criminals.

Any constructive help is deeply appreciated my fellows✌
