This forum is for us to share details on how to root the Safaricom Intel BT210 a.k.a YOLO phone. Please post all your ideas here and help us get root for this phone.
Possible Root Thanks to @Andrew Andrax
"Hi.
I am relatively new to xda. I am not allowed to post replies. I also have the yolo phone and been looking for a way to root it since it has 32 bit architecture (x86). Below is a method that I havent tried coz it is for netbooks running android but since the phone has a similar architecture i assume it will work.
http://lkubuntu.wordpress.com/2012/10/26/how-to-root-an-android-device-under-ubuntu/
Other links are in the post from the link above. I would also appreciate it if you could post it in the forum. By the way, I would also appreciate it if you could tell me how i can be able to start replying to comments.
Kind regards, Andrew.
P.S: The above post to be done requires a linux environment such as a linux O.S like Ubuntu and the likes or installing Cygwin if you have Windows. But make sure that you install the Android SDK which has ADB."
Guys lets try this one out and give feedback. I am trying it out and will post back with the details!!!:fingers-crossed:

Hi, i tried the method u put in the 2nd post to root my YOLO phone n it will not execute the 'psneuter' file it just brings an error.
i think that method does not apply to this phone.
i tried copying the method from MO,DA,CO on how to root the Orange San Diego which uses a similar chipset it didn't work, ditto with the RAZR I method.
I want to try the rooting method for the ASUS Fonepad as i feel it can work as it uses the same exact chipset as the YOLO.
Rooted rooted rooted..
Read This Before you begin:
" If you brick / damage / change your device after root you can NOT revert back to Stock rom as there is no Custom Recovery has been ported and nor will be ported !!( device has been obsolated "
So think Twice Before you Root
Finally i found a way to root intel yolo aka xolo x500 or ANY OTHER x86 device..
it's exploit> Cydia Impactor..
Downloads
Root Tool
http://www.cydiaimpactor.com/
Drivers
http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-android-device-usb-driver
Method.
Install Drivers..
On your Phone Turn on Usb Debugging mode . (Settings>Advanced>Usb debugging )
Extract Impactor.zip
Run Impactor.exe
**BACK UP YOUR ROM DUMP **
Now copy and Paste this code in Impactor. ( See the Attachment..)
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8 of=/mnt/sdcard_ext/system.img
This will generate System.img file of about 768MB in your /mnt/sdcard_ext ( I.e your Memory Card ..)
Copy it to you PC or somewhere this might come in Handy someday..
However i do NOT know anyway to flash this image on Bricked device !!
Select to drop su.
DOne..
The rest you have to do is just install your favorite super user manager,
Personally i use supersu..
If you have any problems,
SHOOT ME MAILS,
I DON'T FREQUENTLY LOG ON TO XDA / MODACO etc..
HERE IS MY MAIL ID:
[email protected]
A Thing or Two you might wanna know,
1: This is root exploit,
So if you delete superuser.apk and su binary, NO OEM can tell that your device was rooted or not.. :laugh:
2: THIS IS AN X86 device not ARM,
i.e.:
a> Some root tools which uses arm binaries wont work on device.
b>Filesystem structure is bit different on X86 than ARM , so THINK TWICE before you screw up anything.
c> If you are Linux user then NEVER rely on useless apks,
Old fashion way of Terminal is best..
DO NOT USE FOLLOWING SOFTWARE..
CHAINFIRE 3D and any other Chainfire applications .. (They are build for ARM devices.)
Recovery Softwares .. ( There are NO CWM or even STOCK rom available for this device ..)
This software are SURE to BRICK YOUR DEVICE...
.
I hope you enjoy my post..:angel:

Trust me or NOT , Your have screwed your system ..
It's not gonna restart ,
Solution: Just go to Service station , just tell them my phone got hanged . ( Act like you are noob ),
They will flash your phone with stock rom.
DONT TELL ANY THING ABOUT ROOTING , or your warranty is VOID !!
Why this happened ?
1> Chainfire 3d is designed for ARM devices , not INTEL (x86) devices..
2> Even developer says it's not for ICS ..
3> LAST BUT NOT LEAST: YOU did not read my whole post where i already mention not to Rely on APKs ..

Roooooted!!!!
Finally tried the root method and it works like a charm!!!!
Spreading the news all over....Most people got rid of their phones because they couldn't get root but finally we have it!!!
So development of a custom ROM maybe? where are those kenyan android developers we hear about!?:laugh::cyclops:
I've also been looking into this BT210 (intel yolo) for a way to upgrade it to 4.2 i found a way to do this on x86 devices but i am not sure whether it would work or even how to do this. here is the link

games problem
My intel yolo Device has a problem with hard Games like Real Boxing,frontline commando d-day and injustice gods among us.all those games run smoothly ,i can chose the characters and Missions without any lags but during the fight or playing the games they closed themselves , i want to know why the game runs so good before begin a battle and then goes out ?? any help or solution for this problem.
Oh Man...you beat me to it...but it's totally ok. I was to post the same answer today
To get the Apk for the Intel wireless, my suggestion is the use of a playstore app called 'Bluetooth file transfer" send the Intel wireless apk to another Bluetooth enabled droid and you can easily harvest it to install in any other droid that is supported.

Hey andrew Andrax...what do you really mean by harvesting??
Sent from my GT-S5300 using xda app-developers app
Sorry...I meant the program will extract the said program as an apk and send it via Bluetooth. Then you can sideload the apk to another phone and install it

Most of you might be knowing that Android is
an Operating System based on Linux.
Well this Operating System has the parameters to achieve
many things. Such way this can also help us
actually emulate Windows 95 on our phone.
The results are not great, but result is positive.
The Windows lag sometimes.
Even the Fonts aren't visible clearly.
Tutorial -
1) First Download this file - LINK-http://www.mediafire.com/?099fqbi93ifbl9x
2) You will notice that there are 2 files inside.
A folder named 'SDL' and an APK named - 'SDL.TECHTON.DEVELOPER.apk'
3) You must put the folder named 'SDL' directly inside the SD card (not in any folder or something)
4) Now Install the APK and then your done !
5)open the apk file after install
5)This is the look of windows which starts approx. after about 2 or 3 minutes
do not forget to press thanks button if i helpfull for you
thats now a os, thats not even a shell or theme. and by the way, it sucks
anyone tried this one?
Not working... while click the app, it's close directly.

i tried this on my apad last december, all you can do is play minesweeper lol, i think, it can serve as a funny file manager
What's the point for an os that is already buried in the dustbin of history? Ahhh, unless you want to play.????

Hi everyone, i've such a good news for all the galaxy w users. I've tested that our device can run init.d script on startup(currently with Bionic Cow 1,dont know whether stock rom works or not). Here is the original post from DOOMLORD.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1236446
Here is the guide for our device to run and support init.d script on startup:
What you need:
1)CWM for galaxy w
2)The file from DOOMLORD (init.d-autorunner-stock.zip),you can download from his original post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1236446)
Step:
1)Boot to cwm recovery and do nand backup first(Just in case if got bootloop,you still can restore)
2)After backup, go to ADVANCE menu and mount system (this is important,if you didnt mount system, then the flash will not be install)
3)Select the file that you have download and flash it.
Test:
1)The easiest way to test whether the script running or not is to install ZEPPELINROX V6 supercharge script.
2)when install the script, do select to integrate to build.prop and enable init.rc
3)if you have installed the v6 script, please do unsupercharge first and do a clean install of the script. DO NOT RESTORE, cause restore will not make the script to auto start.
Hopefully this will help COWITHGUN to implement this to his next BIONIC COW 3.
EDITED:
i've try new improvement to our device. if you are using custom rom, you may wanna try this.first, you need to un-supercharge and download the adrenaline engine from this post by IMBAWIND :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24390564&postcount=2
then,flash it using cwm recovery. when flashing remember to mount the /system/ first. And do remember, after flashing this adrenaline engine, you no need to supercharge again. cause the script is included inside already. try it out guys, and post your comment. happy modding!!
come on....56 views but no one dare to test or give comment???? i need to know whether it works with all of your gw or not!!! we supposed to share and learn. pls give comment. thank you.
Gonna try as soon as I come back home.
Sent from my GT-I8150 using XDA
Ehm, the files he provied are still update-scripts?
the flash file it self doesnt hv script inside. we need to install script by ourself. what i can suggest is v6 supercharge and adrenaline script. i hv combine this 2 script in my phone and it work like charm. i hv use it for a week without problem and battery for heavy 3g internet usage can last for 7 hours. try it and let every user know.

Haha....sharing is caring. I just want sammy to know how good is thier phone, and how bad is it for us without ics update. If sammy really care for thier customer,surely they hv a team to develope new ics for us.
Sent from my GT-I8150 using XDA
Guys, can I ask.....
I am going to try this on stock ROM, just to see will it work......
I have Zepps V6 SC already, so I need to UnSuperCharge????
This installs run-parts binary in /system/xbin/run-parts (which is basically busybox 1.16.2 binary)
Will this overwrite already installed run-parts [Busybox]
I'm using stericson installer, and have busybox 1.19.3 already installed...
Also, is there not a test script called installed /system/etc/init.d/99test
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
touch /data/local/tmp/init.d_log_test.txt
echo "done" >> /data/local/tmp/init.d_log_test.txt
Thanks for interesting with my topic. First, and yes you need to unsupercharge first. It will replace the run-parts, but you can copy and paste the command that you have inside. And make sure set back the permission. And last,it does hv 99test,but i think it doesnt matter for me.
This autorun init.d actually can run at most firmware....include stock. Just make sure u hv cwm recovery and make nand backup. When u flash,make sure u mount system in advance menu.
Happy trying.
Sent from my GT-I8150 using XDA
It works, thanks!
OK...I'll give it a go today.....
Just on the Busybox version, can't I run the stericson BB Installer again after I flash the init.d zip via CWM???
Ohh, and that 99test thing, it's just to verify that init-d has worked.....
if it works, all scripts which use init-d should work, including our beloved Zepps V6

I'm not pretty sure it will work to STOCK kernel
There is something missing to run /system/bin/sysint
Code:
"missing part" -> Run sysinit ("run-part" xbin binary to call bussybox to running the bin file) -> Run init.d folder
The missing part should have command for run sysinit
Code:
#!system/bin/sh
/system/bin/sysinit
If this run you must have init.d_log_test.txt in /data/local/tmp/ folder
If isn't not there the script is not run
Actually it's interesting
I will make one based on this
Regards

hi, thanks for your information. It make sense by your explanation.
i've tried this auto init.d on both my galaxy w(cwm 5) and x10 mini pro(cwm 3.2) with stock rom. it really works, just not sure others people work or not. from the log file it all saids done. so i confirm it really works on stock. if you have others phone do give it a try, if it works, try to spread this good news. cause there is some user which dont wanna use custom rom but want to have auto script installed on stock rom.
thanks again for sharing information.

Yes. Because you are special and deserve ICS while million of others don't. Take your head out of your ass for a moment and think like this:
You are Samsung executives. You own a line of smartphone called the Galaxy phones that are many and all very different from each other. Also you have MILLIONS of customers to please. Google announces ICS but only makes it available a few days prior to release. Now you have to update most of your entire line of phones in a matter of months and you had no way to prepare ahead of time for it. Do you:
1) Hire dozens of techs, programmers and testers to make updates for all your phones that you will most likely fire at the end; or
2) Hire a few that you can keep on board but only upgrade the flagship phones/tablets on your company?
If I was a Samsung executive, I would have gone for the 2nd. Why? Because no one promised ICS upgrade on phones like the Galaxy W, S, Ace, ect. Second because Google ****ing screwed up the timing in giving the manufacturers the SDK and source.
So if you blame Samsung, blame Google aswell. Also, if you blame them then get an iPhone or a WP. But shut up with your self entitlement issues.
When I bought this phone I wasn't expecting Samsung to give a middle-range, not widely known phone an ICS upgrade. I was however expecting the dev scene at XDA to grow around this phone because of its sheer potential. And guess what, I was right
I am thinking of releasing an update to my KezraVP with built-in supercharger support. I won't make promises though, because right now I am trying to get a job in Poland and thal will force me to move countries and stuff so I dunno how much time I'll have.

first thank you for your comment. second....pls use nice words!!i'm not special,i'm just a human like u. if every people will think like you then we dont need this forum or any other developer like you!!! we appeal, we complaint just try to make this phone better. if we didnt complaint, how do sammy know that his customer is having so much complaint on the os upgrade??? u try to think like this way.......if there is no customer service....how ur company can improve??? no feed back???
i've tried your firmware also....no doubt it's very nice n beatiful rom. maybe u can try add in the init.d to ur rom so users can get rid of script manager. or another suggestion is add in adrenaline script v6 to your rom.
good luck in your job finding.....

As the title say, follow this guide to deodex your stock or stock based(Sling,VDT etc) roms.
In case you dont know what is odex and deodex, check out this awesome thread,,http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2224570
Before doing any thing Always Make Nandroid Backup
Things Needed
Java(https://www.java.com/en/download/)
Rooted Device
Usb debugging enabled(for pulling files)
Downloads
http://d-h.st/pCI#.U4cLVPmSwgM (based on Kamome tool)
Guide
extract the downloaded tool
run main.bat(be sure to run as admin)
select option 1 create working folder (if this give you subdirectory already then created continue anyway)
Now Select option 2( phone should be connected to pc with usb debugging enabled and phone should also be on charge only mode)
Select option 3 (this should take some time to deodex files)
this step is optional Use option 4 to add deodexed files to zip and flash them via recovery or you can push via adb(search google)
To flash from recovery
copy zip file( you created before ) in the phone
go to recovery
flash them and reboot
enjoy!

F.A.Q
Q.there are many tools to deodex why use this?
A. With android 4.4 google changed something, now apps are also stored in system/priv-app, other tools available to deodex are only created to deodex file stored in system/app.
Q.Tool gives me some kind of java error at the start?
A.Install Java for your respective system e.g 32bit or 64bit. Also dont continue further if you get this message other wise you will get bootloop
Q.My phone is not detected by this tool?
A. install adb drivers..
Issues
1= On sling rom,when deodexed stock keyboard FC and weather widget also wont work(dont know why)

Hy @umair928 thanks for useful instructions but i am unable to deodexed sling v 2.1 using this method. It doesnt pull the required folders ,i even manually placed app,framework and priv-app folders in system but it doesnt deodexed nor create a flashable zip .This tool is for xperia z and i think it has to be edited a bit to work on our phone.
PS:If youve deodexed slim rom kindly mirror that for me i need deodexed rom thanks

PS:If youve deodexed slim rom kindly mirror that for me i need deodexed rom thanks

May be you are doing something wrong, have you installed proper adb drivers and java. This method works perfect with stock or any custom firmware(I deodexed, 30b, 30c and sling rom) . I have also deodexed htc m8 stock rom with this...
Bro, connection is super sh... ty cant share deodexed rom...
Yes I've installed Java and Adb drivers , Adb is recognising my device . Apparently doing everything as per guide but don't know why it's not doing

Now, that is weird... Usually, it's the other way around, running into problems when NOT launched as Admin. Go figure... Anyway, thanks for the tip! Something to keep in mind...

That's because the framework is different. Changing lg framework may help you to get sms app working, but it may make other apps to FC

Agree that tool won't pull files (step 2) on Windows 8.1 x64 unless it is run NOT in Administrator mode.
I suggest you update the first post.
Cheers
I am facing problem In Option 2:
I am on sling 2.2
When i press option 2, the cmd shows " The system can't find the patch specified"...
What can i do? Please suggest.
thanks in advance

Dear Ahmed vai,
Thanks for the response. My phone is working well with Sling Rom as there are options of Selecting 2g/3G. Whn i select 2g only, the phone;s network signal is good and if i select 3g then the network bar up and downs severly...and no one reach me / i cant call to others. So, I am always select 2g. No way to find out the solution and In sling My front camera is not working.
Hope you are in Good Health. Take care Brother.
Regards,

this is based on f180 ROM and f180 doesn't have FM Radio.
Thanks akahroba...for the information. Do you please suggest any custom rom for my device that support FM radio?

Well, sling is not a custom ROM. It's actually a cooked firmware. If you're searching for such a cooked firmware based on stock kk for E975, nothing so far.
FM radio doesn't work on F 180 @clickanu

Upgrading to 4.3 already improved gaming performance, but it is still not enough. Considering Chainfire3D is not compatible with 4.3+, there must be other options to increase gaming performance such as decreasing texture quality.
Decreasing the resolution does not have much effect as Xperia M is already running on a low resolution. I lowered it slightly, but I barely get any noticable increase.
Recently, Dragon Quest 8 has been ported to Android and I am using it as my Gaming Performance measurement.
It runs well and very playable, but it still lags now and then during sequences and I want to completely get rid of that. The graphics of the game look amazing (considering its a PS2 game on Android), but I'd be comfortable with smoother gameplay instead of great graphics.
I found some tweaks such as Medusa, but as mentioned my phone has a Locked BootLoader and it cannot be unlocked. I already disabled all animation effects in Developer Settings.
I personally use medusa and reincarnation engine at the same time and my phone runs like a damn cheetah.oh and you don't need an unlocked bootloader to install these mods, all you have to have is root, busybox, and init.d support. And then download the mods amd place the files in their appropriate folders and set the correct permissions to each file. You don't need CWM. this method actually works for a lot of mods, you can try it out if you wish. Good luck
Yea.medusa script is good.best battery life ever and speed is amazing

Good to know that Medusa doesnt require CWM. I'll try it out later.
Are there any other tweaks and will Medusa interfere with them?

It is okay .you should try medusa and reincarnation .
Any suggestions on how to install them? Since the official post says it requires CWM.
Which files and where should I move them?

You mean reincarnation ? I used Reincarnation lately but it seems that Medusa is better , So you should only use Medusa .
extract all files then move it to /system then change permission CHECK ALL BOXES after you change that permission move them to /system/etc/int.d paste them there .then reboot .
Oh btw you need busybox and int .d support .

Why should he only use medusa. Reincarnation engine and medusa do not interfere with each other soyou can have them both installed.

TowelRoot and apply Rootfix or the long, but my preferred way:
-Flash stock 4.1.2 using FlashTool
-Extract system.sin from 4.3.ftf file using FlashTool, you should get a system.ext4 file
-Download Nicki Root and put the system.ext4 file where the root.bat is
-Download Framaroot, install it and select SuperSU and Gandalf, run it multiple times until you have SuperSU installed on your phone
-run root.bat and follow instructions
-flash the stock 4.3 ftf but exclude System
Done
All of this can be found on xda easily, just google for 'root xperia m 4.3'.

Bro, do you think im stupid? Of course i know what permissions to use. Go to the reincarnation engine thread and go to page five. I actually made a guide for how to install the mod in locked bootloaders. It tells you what permissions to use for each file. I think u owe me an apology, lol.
Whats your problem.i just said tell him how.are you angry?hes just asking how to install.and y dont you tell him.did i said your stupid?sensitive?lol

I installed Medusa, won't install RE because it seems like more risk than gain.

You will be very surprised by this cheap tablet. I couldn't believe how good it works for the price.
I stopped using my Samsung Galaxy Tab 8" 4 because it feels much slower than the Chinese tablet.
Hello, can anyone upload latest OTA update G708 Oc_SV1.02_KV1.0_20150122 rar file wich is 76 - 79 mb.

Hi, check your message please.
Thanks for the Kingo tip, worked fine here using the app from what looks like the official site : http://www.kingoapp.com/android-root.htm
One thing I'm struggling with is using the External SD Card. I've selected it as the "Default Write Disk" in /settings/storage but that doesn't seem to do anything, i.e. app are not using it to save data there. Am I missing something obvious ?
I now have a rooted colorfly g708. Kingo app works! For those who are desperately googling and not finding answers haha.

Yes, i have same problem with SD card . One of the Problem is the Kit Kat permission with SD cards (just Google it ) The guys from 4PDA forum working on solution. We need recovery and then replace internal/external cards.

The other problem we have so far is the OTA Update.
If you have EN ROM : G708 Oc_SV1.00_KV1.0_20150121_EN There is NO OTA Update.
But people who has ROM without EN in the end , They Got OTA Update to version G708 Oc_SV1.2_KV1.0_20150122 This OTA Update package is 74mb. and can be update from tablet. If some who download latest OTA Update package please share it.
Also i am looking forward to MIUI6 5.1.13 ROM for our tablet
Yes Memory/SD Card Management is a mess in Kit Kat but there's an additional bug on the G708 I believe because on my Moto G/4G I can choose the SD Card as a path for apps that use maps for instance. Hope some bright brains can figure that out in the future!
Any good enhancements to do once you're rooted? Like removing the useless screen capture "soft" button maybe? So far I've only used it for ClockSync for the NTP synching of the clock.
I contact with Colorfly support about OTA Update for EN Roms. I hope that they will assist us.
About the screenshot button, i read that cannot be remove, but will see.
For me The Best option for our tablet is MIUI6 ROM. So far I can't find upload of that MIUI ROM in any English site. May be i will make reg. Here to download the ROM http://bbs.colorful.cn/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=6488
Hopefully you will hear back from them quickly.
I used the "market helper" app to get access to all the "market" apps but I'm getting a "Missing shared library" error on quite a few apps. Some googling seems to indicate it might be Google Maps related but Maps is definitely available on the G708 so I'm not sure why. Anyone know if there is a workaround? Thanks!
I got a answer from Colorfly support.
They told me that so far, there is No Official sale in Europe, thats why there is No OTA Update for _EN ROM !
Also they Give me Download Tools MTK and Image: G708 Oc_SV1.02_KV1.0_20150122
Here is Download links : http://download.colorful.cn/shuma/Tools/MTK.rar

I instal Custom Recovery TWRP with Rashr - Flash Tool , also if you want to change your SD card to internal one use this image https://cloud.mail.ru/public/2c7a2f8b61bf/boot-new.img and flash your Kernel from Storage option in Rashr ( google Play Store )

Dont Forget to make Full Back up of your Tablet, before start to make experiments or flash. You are making everything on your own. I am Not responsible if any damage is done to your device
Hadn't seen your updated post, thanks for sharing! I'd be interested in switching "internal storage" with the SD Card at some point, this doesn't reset the device completely does it? Will download Rashr, can a full backup be done with it?
Any idea how we can fix the "missing shared library" problem and install apps like Garmin Connect or GPStrackerSMS? I think all the problematic apps rely on some Google Maps libraries...
hi,
thanks for this post and these shared !
i will try this rom.
if not, do you know if it is possible to extend the system partition ? 1 go i very small and with many apps installed, i have got only 53 mo on free. Maybe it is possible to regorup partition systeme and data on a 8gb partition ?
many thanks

1. With Rashr you install Custom Recovery ( TWRP ) and in the menu of recovery you make Full Backup.
2. No, Sorry
