Hi, I'm a NOOB.. first post.. be gentle. Apologies for offending anyone with my existence.
Anyway, you're in luck. I have a ZTE V9, and fiddled quite a lot. I run rooted with JB on it, and it feels super smooth, everything working.
For rooting, full instructions are on Whirlpool forums, Google "ZTE V9 CYANOGEN MOD 7 FULL UPGRADE GUIDE".
Summary for you below (copied from Whirlpool):
Section 1) Root the Device
File Required: www mediafire com/?8p5b5ayvwvt9aeh[/url] [z4root.zip] (fix the URL with dots needed, since I can't post URLs yet)
(I have attached here, or go to the URL)
Connect Tablet to PC (Enable USB Data)
copy all extracted files to a single folder on micro sd card.
Enable any app install (settings -> applications -> unknown sources enable)
Enable USB Debugging (Settings -> Apps -> Development -> Enable USB Debugging)
Use files explorer on tablet to open and install "z4root_blade_perm_root_v2.apk"
Open z4root app and select Permanent Root
Tablet will reboot and install will be complete.
Isn't the V9 a bit old for you to be starting just now?

Jelly Bean for ZTE V9
In case you want it, JB 4.1 is available, I use this and everything works perfectly.
Get it at www modaco com/topic/357249-zte-v9-ver-41/ (fix the link with dots)
or just Google: "Hello I have built one today. CM10 zte V9"
-> Post 2 by cen_y has a link for "CM10 zte V9"
There is a 4.2 version later in the thread, but I haven't tried it.
Good luck.

Thanks
Thank You so very much.... that helped a lot..

doesnt work on mine

Sorry it's been so long I don't remember how the process went.
Make sure you have the right tablet. There was a V9 with capacitive screen released, which I think doesn't use the same softwares as the earlier V9 with resistive screen. Other than that, sorry can't help.

Storex Ezee'TAB901 root JB 4.1.1

hi,
After spending many time trying to root my storex tab 901 I bought in france (Already installed on 4.1.1 with google play), Iwas finnaly able to root it using adb and command line.
to do so:
- Download attached file
- Download from google SDK usb_adb_driver
- Go to your device parameters-> USB -> enable debbuging mode
- create a c:\root folder on your windows XP computer then Extract the zip file attached into it.
- Plugin your device to the computer, when prompted for driver, use google sdk USB_ADB_Driver
- When done, open a windows terminal command line
- type: c:
- type: cd \
- type: cd root
- type: cd rootkit
- type: go.cmd
If everything goes well, your tablet should reboot. you can try installing the free app from google store called "Root checker" to confirm your device is properly rooted.
Also, if you lost the original rom and live suite, here is the link to download the latest build from storex web site:
(I will post the link later when I find it)

JB 4.2.2
CAUTION: USE THIS ROM AS YOUR OWN RISK.......Be sure you have the official rom in case it is not working for you. It appears that even though you have the same tablet Reference, depending on when you buy it, hardware might be a bit different and most likely you will take the risk of having a unusable Touch screen or wifi...
I found out you can fully use your Ezee Tab 901 4.2.2
you can install rom from Manta MID 13.
You will be able to install the rom using Livesuite.
Gain:
- Android 4.2.2
- Root Access out of the box
- Play store installed.
Everything will be working
For the link type in google:
MID13 Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean - Manta Multimedia Info
select google link called: manta.info.pl
select the link catshare or 4shared.
Start live suite 1.7, select the download img file, do a format when prompted. You done.
When the tablet restart, go to the parameter icon, and change language to French or english
Procedure on the Ezee tab 901 with livesuit:
- completly turn off the tablet, unplug cable
- start livesuite and select the downloaded image file
- keep the VOL- button pressed and plug the usb cable
- without releasing the VOL- button press the Power button 6 times.
- You should hear windows sound saying a USB device has been plugged
- if windows request it, install the driver from Livesuitefolder\usbdriver
- Livesuite should automatically start the flashing process.
- when prompted, "Format device" press YEs.
- When it s 100% you tablet should reboot.
Done.
Note: I did not invent anything, thanks to the good work of MANTA team members. I just found out this rom works on my tablet out of the box.

Hi,
Thanks for sharing these tips. I'm gonna try to update to 4.2.2, hoping this is going to fix some problems with this tablet.
I've been looking a lot for information about how to update ezee tab 901, so you did definitely a great work !
edit : iflash went well, but touch screen is not responding anymore. Any idea of how to solve it ?
Thanks.

Hi,
did you try going into recovery mode and factory reset? (shutdown tabel completely and keep press on volume+key then press power button)
in the menu, using vol+/- scroll down to wipe factory reset and validate by pressing the power key.
Let me know how it goes.
btw, are you sure your tablet is a Ezee tab 901 and not 971?
Cheers

Hi,
Yes I've got 901 and not 971 (written on the back of the device). I tried factory reset , but still the same problem. However, I flashed again with the original rom, and then touch screen went functional again but the wifi switch is kinda "broken" : it's impossible to turn on wifi from the Settings menu.
I returned the tablet where I bought it, seems there's a sort of material problem with it :/

Im sorry to hear that, i dont think something is broken, i had the same issue with a memup tablet, even though it was a same reference, some model had different hardware, sonlike you after testing multiple rom i had only touch s creen and no wifi ( wifi switch went back to off when i tried to turn it on) or on other rom, i had working wifi but no touch screen.
I hope they will replace your device...
Cheers

Fast custom ROM 4.2.2 by TOxico for Ezee tab 901
Guys,
I manage to find a very fast and usable rom for our tablet: (THanks to Toxico.) this rom will change your life.
All information and download are in the thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...php?p=42274265
It should basically work on any A13 device with livesuit (tested on my Ezee tab 901 and on my 704CET mem up)
This rom comes with no TS driver, but there is all explanation and download to install the needed driver.
note: you might loose the camera though. I encourage you to read the full thread before going further and flash your tablet.
If you want to know the driver used on your tablet, run a adb shell and type lsmod (You will have a list of loaded/used driver.)
Dont be scared, everything is written in the toxico's thread
My only advice, if you dont know how to use adb, do not try it, this is not that easy.
I hope this will help.
Best regards.
As usual do it at your own risk and even more: make sure you have the original rom... just in case

Hi, sorry i cant help you, it looks like the 971 is using a10 cpu, sôit can be different.
If you know what you are doing, u can try to backup your original firmware and test the solution i have provided from toxico in py post above. But there is no warranty it s going to work.
Any case, donnot forget google is your friend
Good luck

Unfornetly it seems google doens't like this tablet...
I'll see what I can do with some backups and all.
Thanks anyway!

SD Card access Lolipop

Not sure if its a problem with the 3rd party application or a problem with latest update, but photography apps still cant write to the SD card, any ideas on how to fix?
Thanks

If you have Xposed installed and working, there's a module to solve this.

Unfort, dont have root accesss (not sure how), though not sure why sony would block this from lolipop features

This is an good and reliable way to get root access on your Z1C.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/son...ck-rooting-stock-lollipop-14-5-0-242-t3085888
ANd you're right. On Lollipop, a few things (still?) aren't working the way they should. So for now, getting root access, getting Xposed, getting your SD card to work properly, you have to work to make it happen

Why is everything complicated not sure if this will be worth it tbh, cant flash due to not in ABD mode, which is new to me

I have to agree. If you compare our phone out-of-the-box with Lollipop with the way it could work after some adjustments, it sure looks like it almost isn't a finished product. And as a matter facts, I can only guide you a bit through what to do after it's out of the box
So, if you want to get it working, this is how I did it. Be sure to have a working backup of your important stuff, just in case...
** USB Debugging On.
You should go to your Settings -> About phone and enable developers options by click a few times on your build number.
In Settings -> Developer options tick USB debugging
In Settings -> Security enable Unknown Sources.
** ADB connection.
Install flashtool on your pc. You can find it following this.
Install latest USB drivers for your pc. You can find them following this.
Install adb/fastboot, using this tool.
This way, you should be able to connect your Z1C to your pc using the flashtool and/or adb and/or fastboot.
You can check if it's working in flashtoo - devices - check drivers. It gives me this:
Code:
25/041/2015 13:41:14 - INFO - List of connected devices (Device Id) :
25/041/2015 13:41:14 - INFO - - USB\VID_0FCE&PID_51A7&MI_01\6&25749C4A&0&0001 Driver installed : true
25/041/2015 13:41:14 - INFO - - USB\VID_0FCE&PID_51A7&MI_00\6&25749C4A&0&0000 Driver installed : true
25/041/2015 13:41:14 - INFO - - USB\VID_0FCE&PID_51A7\CB5A1ZFR1T Driver installed : true

25/041/2015 13:41:15 - INFO - - CB5A1ZFR1T
** Root device.
If you follow this guide, you should be able to root your device.
More info about XZDualRecovery: here.
So once you've followed all these steps, you have a Z1C with lollipop, rooted (latest SuperSU and with a good recovery setup (XZDualRecovery). It should be comletely connectable with your pc, and flashtool will be able to tell you if your root is working properly. It gives me this:
Code:
25/041/2015 13:41:07 - INFO - Device connected with USB debugging on
25/041/2015 13:41:08 - INFO - Connected device : Sony Xperia Z1 Compact

25/041/2015 13:41:08 - INFO - Android version : 5.0.2 / kernel version : 3.4.0-perf-g9ac047c7 / Build number : 14.5.A.0.242
25/041/2015 13:41:08 - INFO - Checking root access
25/041/2015 13:41:09 - INFO - Root Access Allowed
** Install XPosed Framework.
Everything about Xposed for Lollipop you can find over here.
But it should be too good if it all works without any effort You need to flash another zip to avoid bootloops. This is your extra homework to make Xposed work on Z1C.
I hope this helps. If you have problems with the installation of anything I mentioned, please read the threads I linked to I'm just a simple user, these people know much more about the ins and outs.
If all of this is working, I would advice to flash to recovery AGAIN and make another backup of your setup.

I hope there will be someone else to jump on this...
Problem is, I've had the same problem. As far as I remember, it was because the USB drivers weren't properly installed. But I can't remember how I solved that problem.
(I only had to make a small adjustment in my windowssettings, with Win 8.1 Advanced Startup Settings, that's all I remember)

Help rooting a BLU Dash M

I need some assistance trying to find a method to root my Dash M (which appears to be extremely rare to find a rooting method for).
I already tried framaroot (tool I used to root my tablet before) and Kingroot and such, but none were able to do it (and all google searches led to videos on rooting a BLU Dash 5.0 or another device from the Dash range, which isn't what I needed).
The Dash M is running Android 5.1 and custom build BLU_D030U_V16_GENERIC 28-01-2016 15:41
If anyone could help it'd be very much appreciated c:

I have a Blu Advance 5.0, from the same exact family. In May, they had an OTA sent out to it to update the security. And little did I know, that meant no more root. Before the OTA to V06, I was on V04, and was able to root with Kingroot in less than a minute, perfectly. After the update, nothing good came of it.
For the past months I've tried hundreds of things to flash custom roms and recoveries (which I figured it out eventually) and then it crashed, due to a "damaged OTA". This meant that it couldn't update because I was rooted.
So here's the solution... If there's any older versions of your model or chipset (AKA Mediatek D030UX, D030U {MT6580}), download that firmware to your computer desktop as a (.zip) file. Then download the SP Flash Tool (Smart phone flash tool) from their website, and plug your phone into your computer via Media Transfer (MTK).
If you already have developer's options enabled, skip this.
- Go into your settings, go all the way down to "About Device", and find where it says "Build Number" (which will most likely have the phone brand in the file name). Tap on that about 8 times until it give a toast notification saying "Developer's Mode Enabled".
After you get that done, go back into your regular setting and now there should be a box above your "About Device" button that says "Developer Options". Tap that, then turn them on (press OK/YES if a prompt pops up) and then select the following options ,if available.
-OEM Unlock
-USB Debugging
Now plug your phone into a computer and install the drivers for your phone (it should do it automatically) and launch the SP Flash Tool that you had downloaded (extract to desktop before you launch, or it will show "error"). Now open the SP Flash tool and click on the "Scatter Loading" button. Navigate to your desktop, and find the firmware folder you downloaded. Click on that, then click on "Firmware", and it should bring up a .TXT file (Scatter file) with the desired firmware version you want. Click on it and press open.
A chart will appear in the space below with all the things the firmware has built in. All of them should be checked. Take out your battery now (from your phone) and plug the phone in without the battery. Wait for the model on the left to name your device, and click on the drop down list above the chart, it should give 3 options. Firmware Upgrade, Download only, and Format All + Download. Press Format All + Download. The bar at the bottom will turn a few colors, depending on what it's doing.
Now you're done! It's flashed. From that version, try to figure out a way of rooting it.
WARNING: Flashing erases all data on device, please backup to an external storage (SD CARD), before attempting this, in case you brick your device.

i know this is an old thread but.... i rooted mine (Dash M) with KingoRoot (look it up on Google)... i tried lots of stuff with no results, everything failed (i've already tried to root with KR in windows) but the only thing that worked was rooting with the android app in KR page... i felt really stupid after trying everything with no results when i've been using KR for other "hard phones".... either way, the only downside is that their SU manager displays all the time ads no matter where in the phone you are... but you can freeze the app to fix this and unfreeze it when you need to assign permissions....
BTW: its KingoRoot not kingroot (just in case)
