Trio Stealth Pro 9.7

1st time posting, long time lurking. I'm trying to find out how to root the Trio Stealth Pro 9.7 CM4. Unlike the Stealth Pro 7c, it does not come rooted out of the box. I've done quite a bit of searching and haven't found any information on this device. Can't find a windows driver for it, no rooting procedures, no ROMs, etc. Does anyone have any info on this tablet? What specs would I look at to see if it's a clone of another device?
please
Please ppl is there anyone out there working on the Trio Stealth Pro 9.7??? I have been lookin on the web and can't find anything out there for this tablet. I need to root, custom recovery, and custom rom. I see that there is a lot on the Trio Stealth Pro 7 but nothing on the 9.7. I tryed z4root and that did not work. So please help. Thank You.

"Hello good at all, I just rooting my new tablet, is this, bought Pandawill
Ployer MOMO Bird OEM 11 Inch Android 9.7 Tablet PC 4.0.3 IPS Screen 1GB RAM 16GB HDMI Dual Camera Silver.
The correct version of android that has come according to Information "tablet" that appears in the settings is 4.0.4 with baseband version 1.4rc3, and kernel 3.0.8 + inet_wzh @ inetsuperserver # 39 of 10 July 2012
but has a good memory rootearla wanted to spend all the possible apps to sd and delete apps Chinese (although in this case does not bring any installed, I've only found 2 apk. installed in Chinese that have not been clear when connected to pc.)
I rooteado with Unlock Root program very simple and you can easily find that much information and statutes.
The problem was that I had no drivers found the tablet, the unlock button to give the root asked me if I wanted to download the drivers but not to ask the same question again and again.
He had also tried to install from the SDK MANAGER checking the appropriate box (google usb drivers) in the extras tab of the program, but I do the installing.
At the end I was able to install the drivers from this page (in theory for Windows Vista, XP and 7, both 32 and 64 bit version. In my case I have worked for 64-bit drivers and use windows 7)
URL BLOCKED
Once downloaded, so typical in windows 7:
Control Panel, Hardware and Sound, Devices and Printers-manage devices.
(There if you have no good drivers appear the typical yellow triangle warning that there is a problem and these drivers are missing)
the right mouse button is checked and the panel displays upgrade device is selected.
If looking online not found them, so we give manual update and select the folder where you have downloaded the drives. Eh voila the triangle disappears drivers are properly installed and in my case root unlock version 2.4.2 does its job in 30 seconds and you install the Superuser.
I hope that works for some Negao like me who is starting in the world of android phones and tablets.
Health and Luck."

I bricked my tablet playing around with it too much, but before I did, I happened to back up most of the NAND partitions but not all - I omitted the empty ones that were full of FF's. I think maybe I can restore it if I get the partitions right.
Would someone please do a:
cat /proc/partitions
And let me know what the output is?

Thanks for the quick response. So CM9 won't work? Like for the 7in Trio Stealth
No, not until someone makes a custom build for us. I doubt that will happen unless Trio or the actual manufacturer releases a stock ROM. Without a stock ROM, we have no emergency backup if something doesn't work.

Not exactly. I have already extracted all the partitions, dissected the bootloader, and have made a custom recovery with rooted adb and other utilities. It still uses the stock recovery app though. Not CWM.
I have a CWM recovery from another very very similar device and am close to merging the two recoveries together. I want to rebuild and flash the boot image for the device also so I can use root adb there as well.
I do a kernel for the galaxy blaze 4g, so I have a full environment set up for extracting and rebuilding.
One note, always get a good recovery with root adb before messing with the boot image. That way, you can always flash a known good one from recocery if the one you're trying fails to boot.
My current method of extraction and flashing is dd, which is not at all forgiving and has the potential to brick the device if you mistype the command.

Yep, I know all about bricking with DD! I was able to extract/backup using dd, but I was unable to use my backups because I used cat to install an incompatible recovery which resulted in a brick which would neither boot to OS nor boot to recovery. I was forced to use LiveSuit to flash another A10 ROM and then found none of my dd backups could work because a LiveSuit flash sets up the NAND partitions with sizes specific to that ROM - none of which matched the sizes of the Trio ROM so cat restore would fail.
Anyway, that will be great if you can get CWM or something working. A custom ROM would be great. Something about the stock ROM makes it unusually laggy.
also waitin for a rom-- feel like even after root it is a bit sluggish

It is really laggy. Seems like I/O to me, but I could be mistaken.
Has anyone had any luck with this? This tablet is basically worthless without a new ROM... incredibly slow. It always asks to wait / report / close every app.
I have a working rooted recovery with all the fixin's, but haven't tried throwing cwm on it yet or created a flashing script to make it foolproof yet. Honestly haven't had time. I also permanently rooted the boot image so adb runs as root. Same delivery problem.
If I had a complete hardware list down to the exact parts in it then I could build a device tree for it and get CM on it, as there are a ton of similar devices. Again, an issue of time

Until Kitkat is fully tested and rolled-out, I suppose there is no compelling reason (for now) to take unnecessary risks.

Cubot GT72 has a similar chipset (MT6572) ... Framaroot should work with Boromir exploit.
With Framaroot, there is almost no chance of bricking your phone; worst case is it won't work.

Mira, for Z5s Mini the tools are diferent, as you said this is diferent phones, diferent hardware. I'm using Z5S Mini So I can help you.
For Z5S Mini you need :
1) ADB Drivers - adb_drivers_z5s_mini_install
2) Root - AnzhiRoot
3) Get to Recovery - z5s_mini_Recovery
4) Install Gapps - gapps-jb-20130812-signed_2 .

There are pictures of this recovery in English, but you must find it in GOOGLE! Not only to wait someone to tell you. But because I'm a good person I will tell you - The "INSTALL FROM SD" is the SECOND option, and The WIPE/FACTORY resset is the THIRD OPTION.
First option is REBOOT DEVICE.
Good luck.

We hope. Anyway there is an available function on ZTE Z5S mini (the "Screen projection") which permits to send a

hello guys. i have the huawei honor 2 phone and im thinking of upgrading it to this or to nubia z5s but i got a few question.
does phone mini have goriila glass also like nubia z5s?
how is battery life?
how much screen time do you get at maximum with brightness on lowest?
can you replace battery?
does zte nubia z5s mini have slowmotion camera like in z5s here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GLS4fwFLwNs
the only things i dont know why to take nubia z5s or z5s mini is
reasone to take z5s mini has micro sd card whitch is great + its cheaper + snapdragon 600 is fast enought to run anything that's in the playstore (am i wrong about this?)
reasone to take z5s regular is = better screen with less battery draining + bigger battery + faster cpu+infrared but higher price and sd card only 16gb
whats really importent is to know how is battery life ... thanks!

i got this phone today but could not for the life of me get any recovery to work i updated the adb n everything but all i get is a black screen no lights nothing can anyone help me cos otherwise im gunna have to send it back
wifi issue, I need the files in /persist
I have a fully functional zte nubia z5s mini ( except from wifi and bt) rooted, english CWM, latest MIUI. Formatting /persist partition before installing MIUI caused the issue, there is a relevant thread explaining it all at bbs.nubia.cn/thread-112804-1-1.html (understood it using google translate).
To fix it I just need some files that were in that partition (nothing special, can be viewed with any root explorer) and get them back. Re-flashing any ROM wont do the job because that's the essence of the specific partition, to contain some files that wont be replaced by flashing a rom from recovery as I discovered by similar threads at xda for other phones.
The thing is that I cant download the files from nubia forum because to get the link I must register and registration does not work for me without any apparent reason.
Could someone make a copy of its own files ? There is nothing personal in there or phone specific / unique .. Net / BT drivers, and configuration files
As I said, nothing special needed, just copy all files / folders from /persist and make a zip .. I guess a backup from CWM would work also, never tired it (never needed to restore anything till now)
The issue is very annoying because apart from WiFi problem the phone is fully functional .. I know whats the problem, the files I need and the procedure (a simple copy) but after 3-4 days of searching have not been able to find the files ..
Could somebody please help by sending me its own files from /persist ?

Hi mrasnik0,
in this package there is the file "z5s_mini_Recovery.exe" that installs the CWM Revovery v6.0.4.5.
I would install a CyanogenMOD 11 KitKat on my Z5S mini but i need for a greater version of CWM recovery,
do you know if is available a CWM recovery version greater than 6.0.4.5 ?
...Update...
I would install the CyanoGenMod 11 4.4.2 version but to do this i
need TWRP Recovery first (because CWM Recovery can't flashes Android version 4.4.2),
can anyone tell me how can i do?
PS: i have downloaded TWRP Recovery (TWRP_kk_z5smini_v3_fix) through "tdbeta.cn" (i'm not able to link the thread) anyway
i follow the instruction but recovery mode is always set on CWM, i can't set TWRP as default recovery,
moreover ROM Manager doesn't detect TWRP Recovery but detects only CWM Recovery and Stock recovery
What i can do?
Thanks for answers

Flash Rom of Chinese Star C1000

Hi everyone, first time poster, please be gentle...
I have recently brought a chinese smartphone, mainly as a bit of a folly to see what they are like. I have brought the Star C1000 also known as the Sesonn C1000, Kingelon C1000, HDC White Walker, Vifocal C1000, Lenteen C1000, Goophone M3 and many other names. It is 5.5 inch with fingerprint scanner.
I want to flash the rom and put either a fresh android 4.4 on there or another trusted mod e.g. cyangenmod but i'm having some trouble as I can't seem to find the necessary ROM for this phone in order to do this. Add to this non of the apps that automate some or all of this i.e. Rom Manager won't recognise the device in order to provide rom's and back up facility and when I tried the automated cyangenmod auto installation, again would recognise the phone and continue with the installation...
So could anyone give me some guidance and advice on this,
P.s. Phone is already rooted as its loaded with their custom rom which says the version is android 5.5, so unless this phone is from the future...
Thanks
Matt
Hello,
First, i dont think that there is any CM Rom for your device.
Second, check every other device with the same Hardware as your device, for one with 4.4 Android.
If you find something, a little Modifikation of the update binary should do the job
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Free mobile app
Thanks for your reply, that sounds a little too technical for me I think,
Now the reason I want to do this is because it has come with its own rom installed claiming its android 5.5 and that its a sony m880 when it obviously isnt....does anybody know anything about this...
Heve you found any ROM for the C1000?

Elephone B Version 2016 CyanogenMod 13 ?

it was funny how I realized mine was the new version now
I made this thread here so you guys can discuss, this is for information to others who have gotten the new elephone
1) How do we get root ?
No, there isnt any proper recovery last @Emileh ported it did not work very well you are able to flash it the recovery but you are unable to boot back into the system it just stuck at the elephone logo.
2) as of now we only have one rom that has been up here and running K06TE-A.A.vR14.E1.160707 (2016 Version)
K05TS-A.A.vR1E.E2.160217 (2015 Version)
3) cosmetic mixed up (happens alot on chinese phone)
my front is the old 2015 version cover but my back is the new fingerprint cover (possible you can confirm with that is the new elephone you have if you are not sure.
4) so no root and no cyanogenmod and no recovery ?
as of now Im not sure about root, cause I did tried to flash recovery from @Emileh but I could not boot back to android os, so we cant flash supersu,
kingroot and others dont work !
also there some memory layout changed, so it will render the android 5.1 roms useless, please dont try unless you know what you are doing and know how to recover from mediatek usb port
5) will CyanogenMod 13 work ?
to be honest we need a fully working recovery.
maybe there can explain and clear anything more that I left out, I have just gotten the phone
@skeleton1911 @BlueFlame4 @Emileh @Deepflex
somehelp would be nice. thanks would be nice to get cm13 for both the 2015 and 2016 working

well the 2015 and 2016 versions are basically two different devices - despite having the same name they share very little. A unified CM 13 build is thus not only difficult to establish but I would even say that it makes things more complex than developing two single versions. That said, CM 13 for the 2016 should be rather easy to bring up because it ships with 6.0. Basically you could take Deepflex's P9000 tree, change it according to the 2016_P8000 and boom - should work. With that you can then of course also compile a working recovery to achieve root That's the theory at least
Is that so but we have yet to achive root and figure out what is the internal changes between those two? Maybe @Deepflux can lend a helping hand in this wish you could help out @BlueFlame4, cause I finally had the money to get this phone possible if you could look into the recovery issue on why it does not boot after flashing it aka bootloop at elephone logo
** Attempted to Port and it does not work. did repack twice.
Hey. Just saw this topic.
I made a better version of the recovery (but forgot to post it), which is actually able to flash roms. It now also mounts everything properly. Flashing root on stock rom works 100%. (only thing not working in ADB, I think).
I will upload it later.
Problem is, there are no roms (expect stock, which you flash using SP Flash Tools). You can't flash the roms that other have made for the old version of the phone. Doesn't work like that.

I was talking about this. You have to adapt it to the P8000 and have to use a 3.18 kernel (+ M blobs) though.
there isnt any 3.18 kernel that was released right ? m blobs can be extracted question is why won't your cm13.1 work on the new elephone ? memory changes ? it is still same soc right or there is something different quite confused.
