I'm a n00b when it comes to posting on xda, apologize up front for that. I started a previous thread about this, but can't find it. I forgot to attach the files needed. So here's a followup...place the crystal root zip file in the root of your sdcard, and reboot into the recovery module. This is done by powering off your tablet, then power it back on, but hold down the volume down button and the power button while turning it back on. Hold down the volume down button until the zeki logo disappears. Navigate to update from EXT, then choose the crystal root zip to flash. Reboot your tablet. It will go through "android apps." You are now rooted, SuperSU is installed. Download Busy box from the internet if needed. The other zip attached. Is to install the Google play store. Place this file on your sdcard and extract it. You will see 4 apk files, numbered 1-4. Install them in the correct order, and do not open anything installed. Some may not install, that is OK. After you install file 4, reboot immediately. You will notice a "market" icon in your apps, looks like the old Google market app. That's it. The icon will update when you use the Google play store. You're welcome everyone.

Once you install the 4th file and reboot, you will be given a choice for launchers before your home screen loads...it will say launcher or setup wizard. Do not choose setup wizard. Choose launcher, and choose "always" so it doesn't pop up every time you press the home button. Forgot to mention this in the above post. Sorry about that.
I bought this tablet for my mom last week. I was disappointed when I saw that it did not have Google Play. But I figured it wouldnt be too hard to get it installed on there. SHe is coming to visit tomorrow. I will give it a try, and post results.
this worked great in My Zeki 753, thanks so much for the files. worked great.

Can Confirm: Works on the new ZEKI 10" works great
THANK YOU... THANK YOU... THANK YOU...
Thanks I just tested it against my new ZEKI TBD1083B 10" tablet I got from Kmart on sale about a month ago for $139.00.
The very first thing after the last reboot AVAST asked Root Access. Now I can finally turn on the Firewall section and feel a little safer on the internet. :laugh: Since Google Play nuked all the Ad-Blockers I opened the 1Mobile app and installed Adaway. Installed just fine and dandy.
Strongly recommend adding
http://www.malwaredomainlist.com/hostslist/hosts.txt
A hosts.txt that be used as a block list to Adaway...
Feel a whole lot safer now.
THANKS VERY VERY MUCH for your post...

i returned that POS tablet... went and bought her a galaxy tab 2 7.0 for not even $100 more. I have a Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 and love it, so the Galaxy should have been my first choice for my daughter anyways lol
Hello thanks for the instructions but i followed them exactly and after unpacking the file and then verifying the file it simple states "installation aborted" and then nothing else happens. Any advice for me? And by the way the TBD753 doesn't have an "enter" button so you just have to press "power" I found out, to enter. Thanks in advance for your help!

Root works great on the tablet.

crystal root doesn't work for anything...
Now I'm not knocking the validity of crystal root, i've just never gotten it to work. And to top it off never thought i'd have to acctually post in a forum...period. However, I too needed a zeki tablet rooted, as well as another obscure Chinese tablet i got from best buy. neither tablet worked with crystal root, nor the numerous others i'v gotten from around the web. The only thing i've personally gotten to work is a combination of libusb made divers and kingo root.
For anybody who doesn't know what these are libusb for windows is available on sourceforge, and kingo root from somewhere that i cant quite recall, google is really helpful. Just run libusb, select your tablet while its in debugging mode, and the program will work it's magic for the most part. I did manage to find one 4.3 inch tablet that had a 600 mhz a8 that didn't work with this method, but then agian i only paid like $30 so i didn't find it a problem, plays retro games really nice as it has a capacitive lcd with 16m colors, slow as dirt for anything else, so unless you need it for something like that, then libusb should be able to make drivers from almost nothing on your end.
Then just run kingo root, if the drivers are all fine and well, kingo root will ask you to verify the debugging permissions on the device, and afterwards will proceed to root it as normal.
Like i said, I've never gotten crystal root to verify the zip package, while kingo root has failed only once simply because the device in question had such obscure hardware. But because kingo root is closed source and classified as a linux based Trojan, it will almost always be flagged by an antivirus, so use it or don't.
If nothing else the zeki brand of tablets make better warming coasters for coffee or tea than anything else, so if you still cant root it then the 7" tablets like my TBDG734B are better used as a pocket hand warmer or thermos insulator than a computer device.
Edit:
forgot to apologize up front for the bump, but kingo root and others verify crystal root works means this thread probably needs to be closed. Thanks for the service provided on these forums.
1-2-2019 update. This tablet is a POS, but my mother in law was gifted it and from its 1st boot up has been stuck in Android loop boot screen. I've tried Crystal and motochopper from the SD root and they both say Installation Aborted. This post will most likely be read in 2020 when someone finds my tablet on sale at Walmart for $20, but incase someone has a working file please reply. Thanks and happy new year

It's normal for it to say that when it's stopping Play Services to install a new version. (Mine did that a few days ago.) Maybe you've gotten it into a bad state by powering it off while it was in the middle of trying to update? You might try uninstalling Play Services on your phone, then reinstall it, and give the watch some time to transfer and install it there.

Same problem, android wear force to use newest google play service, but after the google play service transfered to the watch, it stopped working and disconnected:crying:
Just do a factory reset on the watch. When first turning it on at the first Asus screen swipe down diagonally from right to left. This will start it in recovery mode. From there follow on screen prompt to navigate to wipe data and restart.
I have same problem to, from first time i conecting this zenwatch to my zenfone 2
I've tried many ways, and then the last i did...
- Uninstall Android ware ( that updated )
- I try to install android wear oldest version from apk miror that 1.1.1.2113877
- reset my zenwatch and try to conect with oldest android wear
I am so happy that always conect to my zenwatch
- Update firmware my zenwatch
- after finish, i try to uninstall old android wear and install again from play store (updated),
- this work until now...
It works like a charm...
Thx a lot.
So I rooted my Samsung Galaxy tab 3 8.0 (TM310) and started deleting bloatware. I restarted the device after deleting a couple of bloatware and think I deleted a necessary Google app. I kept getting a popup saying "android device manager has stopped working" so I think I deleted that. Being stupid I never actually created a backup (learnt my lesson) and thought if I factory reset the device, I'll have the original apps back; this did not work and created a problem. Now when I try to setup the the tablet, the google part comes up after setting up WiFi and it asks you for your first and last name to personalise the tablet. Considering I deleted an app, it just says android device manager has stopped working and just restarts the part where I have to enter my name. Essentially I can't setup or use this tablet without the app so is there a way to actually get it back? I'm willing to try anything as there is no loss. Tablet is useless otherwise. Thanks for your time!

Just bought a demo tablet from work and have had problems trying to get the retail demo app removed 'Liszt'
I have managed to disable the app, however this only works temporarily, as soon as you restart the tablet you have to go through the whole process of disabling again.
I have tried factory reset.
I have tried Kingo Root through a computer, it said it had succeeded however did not install SuperSu so obviously did not root properly. I have tried installing SuperSu through google play store however whenever you go into it it just comes up with 'SU Binary Occupied' so something obviously isn't correct.
I have installed 'System App Remover (ROOT)' an when opening the app it seems to think that it has rooting capabilities however when trying to uninstall Liszt it just says that it has failed.
I am pulling my hair out here trying to get this sorted and every tutorial or online info on this tablet is outdated and has links that just go absolutely nowhere, so please do not just send me to another thread where all the information and files are just non existent as you just cant follow it.
Anyone out there with previous experience in either rooting this tablet or removing 'Liszt' let me know what options I have.
Thanks in advance!
Hello guys.
two days before i upgraded my phone to 8.0.0.336. It was a big upgrade and no problems on upgrade, before many times the upgrades also no problem.
But now my Google Account no more works. Cannot add new google account, just just blank page or freeze. i already made factory reset and try with google installer to install the google play and play store and chrome and google stuff again, without works.
Also USB connection not working anymore. there is just loading but not recognized on my Mac anymore on USB.
How its this possible? Is this possible to downgrade the phone to the previous version?
Or how can i fix this problems? This cannot be true, that my phone completely not useable after upgrade.
Thanks for help
