I am officially stuck in bootloop after editing the build prop; trying to get split screen ability. I do not have a back up, but truly I thought I did. It is rooted but no custom recovery installed. I have tried to reset to factory but it does nothing. The brand is Marozi the model is C8000 OTA. It had Android 5.1.1 can anyone help me? If there are any downloadable Android images or Android OTA files that I can use to flash the Android image back on the phone since I do have root privileges would help. I am completely okay doing a clean install and wiping the phone. I can absolutely even flash a ROM that is compatible with my phone and go that route as well. At this point I am willing to try anything and do everything to have it working again. Personal life is very unsafe with two kids and I need a working phone and honestly cannot afford to buy a new one. A case of beer to anyone who can help me.
Thank you!

i accidentally deleted a system app the other day while toying around with root access ( i am a noob to rooting ) not knowing the consquences of a simple mistake. anyway i tryed downloading the new OTA update for my phone and keep getting an error msg and im unable to install the update. this is from not having the original system app that i mistakenly dowloaded. this is a new phone and i dont expect to get much help but if anyone can it would be greatly appreciated. all i need would for somone with a z998 that would be kind enough to send me a file of their system apps so i can download this update thanks. all help is appreciated.

If you have a nandroid back up of your phone, just restore that. Even if it is old, it doesn't matter. You can also try to restore the factory firmware and then apply the OTA update. This is done differently depending on the phone, but usually there are instructions for it on the manufacturer's website or if you are lucky the manufacturer has software designed to do this from your PC.

yeah i dont have a back up & zte is a fairly new company I'm assuming because I couldn't find anything on their website. But I have cwm & my phones rooted so couldn't I just go ahead and flash the stock ROM if someone could help me out with that.

I haven't tried it, but here you go
Long story short I modded my stock rom and only made a backup after I removed a bunch of system apps I knew were safe. Well youtube stopped working and my children like to watch you tube and Nabi release an update to patch their system to fix the youtube issue but I can not flash due to missing system files. Looking for stock unupdated or even updated rom for the nabi big tab 20 and help would be great. TWRP is the only recovery that I am aware of for this tablet.
Thanks in Advanced!

Still Needing That Stock Rom?
I kinda did the same thing. So I just bought another Big Tab 20 to flash TWRP and backup the stock rom. I must mention at some point the Twrp Backups did not restore properly on the previous device. Dont know what happened. Im scared as hell to do this because it seems like theres no turning back to stock and this one cost me a cool $100.
Where I may find the stock rom or TWRP backup for this tablet?
I bricked this, just doing root and rename launcher and chrome apk in system folder, after this I get a bootloop.
And I need pinout a nabi connector, don`t have a usb cable..
Bringing this back from the DEAD
Hello,
I just got this Nabi BIG TAB HD - Model on device is bgtab-nv20a.
I am able to access recovery and select to wipe it, however when booting into Android it will ask for you to connect to the internet, regardless if you do it or not, a message will appear not allowing me to proceed, the error will be that it cannot connect to the FUHU server or that it cannot perform update and therefore cannot continue.
I am looking for either a way of rooting and flashing a custom ROM or simply get it to boot with the already installed Android system.

If you can find a custom mom for this device please let me know lmfao. There's some extreme hardware packed under this really old device.
Whoever can respond with an answer will be a godsend. S**t hit the fan so hard so quick. to give a rundown of whats happening. just recently returned from traveling abroad. during that time something happened. cant hardly remember. whatever happened. i can recall i knew i needed a rooted phone to fix it. (im pretty tech literate) so ive tried ping pong root. im running 6.0.1 marshmellow on my s6 edge G925A. ive learned a root is not possible on this version. but for 5.1.1 it is. however id prefer to stick to 6.0.1 so i kept digging. now that was over a course of 3 weeks with no access to a computer across seas. so i decided to take the time to learn to use odin to flash a rom since from what i read ive found a rooted 6.0.1 att rom. (I could care less about knox. past warranty etc.) its more important for me to have a functioning phone that i can have control over. but the issue was ads popping up system wide. random acts of terror on my phone. phone would randomly install apks/files. or force close every app suddenly. uninstall apps. NOTE: i havent side loaded any apks other then ping pong root from the xda thread. nor any other file that would seem to have possibly been tainted that i downloaded. whatever happened. thats the past. right now its gotten worse. ive decided to try to sit down and figure out odin to fix it. now yes i could do a factory reset and get on with my life. but i really want a rooted phone. and since ive got a backup and im already in the middle of it.. why not just root it. but that tar file is for 5.1.1. not 6.0.1. so im curious if thats the case im gonna just install a custom rom which would be way more open and user controlled then freaking AT&T's so called open interface of android. so im here to ask. is it possible to go from 6.0.1 stock marshmallow android and flash the Extreme Syndicate v3.1 Custom ROM for my phone for version 5.1.1 Lollipop android? if so can you provide a somewhat step by step if needed. ive read you would have to flash stock rooted 5.1.1 then flash the custom ROM. if thats true please point it out. I need this phone to be alive and well for my business while allowing me to make it mine. not a brick so im open to any advice to get this task done. xdadevelopers are a life saver to say the least. but right now im needing a big life save now. so anything helpful is needed ASAP! THANK YOU for reading and helping a needy soul out! heres a list of specs and short rundown so you dont have to sort through this life story lmao!
phone model and build at the moment:
Model: Samsung Galaxy S6 edge (SAMSUNG-SM-G925A) (Unrooted)
Android 6.0.1 (Marshmallow)

-------------------------------------------------------
Again. I want to know if i can flash Extreme Syndicate 5.1.1or any other custom ROM's you guys Rep for. so my phone so i can have control over my phone. if so please list steps as using odin and such im fairly new to. since im just now starting to learn android community. its been great. but hopefully i can get a little hands on instead of standing on the sidelines. anyways. THANK YOU for any and all help towards my Experience of this mess.

Right here are a few things from my knowlegde before you try anything.
Ping pong root only works with some firmwares, to root your G925A it must have the exact firmware G925AUCU1AOCE which is 5.1.1. You can try it and do download data first, then turn on airplane mode then try to root. Chances are it will fail.
Extreme syndicate v3 is for lollipop firmware only, your current firmware is 6.0.1 so you will find it impossible to flash as the bootloader will have been locked on upgrade to marshmallow. (Im yet to find anybody successful in downgrading) and also the dev has stopped for this ROM.
AT&T lock down there firmwares so its very hard to find any firmwares other than the ones available over smart switch.
Overall i dont think there is any root available for G925A 6.0.1 nor will there ever be.
As your on 6.0.1 you wont be able to find or flash any custom ROM as they are all on 5.1.1 as root was available for this version and not for 6.0.1
Only thing you can really do is wipe data/cache from recovery and your ad problem will be fixed.

yea... i figured. didnt know if anyone had any ideas that they knew personally. the ads were on a so called system bloatware app. so just disabling and manually corrupting its files stop it from working. hence ads quit popping up. as for root. i agree. when i get a s7. gonna buy it unlocked so i dont have this issue. i dont understand why customizing a phone is such a sin..

I always get my phones unlocked, or on a network that can accept flashed stock from different networks. AT&T and tmobile are a pain in the backside. I agree if you can go for the international s7
So my LG broke. In the meantime until i get a new proper phone, i bought a cheap off-brand android phone. However, when attempting to root it, i bootlooped it, and like an idiot; i realised i forgot to make any backups of any partitions. So my question is, are there any universal versions of android i can flash over using the abd that will make the phone work again?
Thanks
No each kernel for the device is built just for it. You will need to stock room from the oem. Good luck as normally it is not available
Alba
I have an alba 10" ac101cplv2 and have successfully rooted it with super su but can't seem to find a custom ROM for it. Would like to install twrp but unable to find a version for my tablet. I'm hoping that someone could point me in the right direction. Just a cheap tablet I know but would like to open it to new possibilities like using SD card as storage for apps like have done with my s5 mini that runs beanstalk 7.1.2.
Can not root Alba 5
Does anyone know how to root Alba 5, i'am finding it really difficult. It is on Marshmallow 6.0 i have tried many rooting apps and have attempted to root through pc and through the phones recovery mode. Also when i go in to recovery mode a broken android logo comes up and it says something in chinese under it. The phone still works perfectly fine would really appreciate some help thanks.
The Sony Xperia Z2 tablet has got to be the most horrible device in android history to root or install a recovery on it. The process and the complexity of it is just horrible. You daren't ever make the slightest change to a rom or anything in twrp as it just screws everything up on this device. I can't count the amount of roms i've put on it just to totally trash the device and you have to start from scratch. Either you put a new rom on, it wipes the recovery, you have to piss about using flashtool to flash some other ftf on just to get into recovery, then you have to then flash another tft to get root, the list just goes on and on. I don't even know why sony mobile even bother offering the bootloader unlock option in the first place, it's an absolute nightmare. It's basically you can have root with the official stock firmware, if you want a custom rom spend the next 2 weeks trying to get supersu installed on it. The most horrible device I've ever come across.
Then sell it :laugh:
Somehow I cannot share this view. Running Carbon ROM with Magisk without any issues. For a more than 4 years old tablet the Z2 stands its ground, I don't regret having bought it.
Just hoping that we'll get Pie...

I've tried Carbon and would love to use it but it just screws up the tablet after install and recovery gets wiped so you can't even go back to restore a back up. You then have to reflash using Emma then back into flashtool to reflash the tft to get recovery to work again because flashtool ends up reporting back that the current tft is not compatible with the device. It's a finicky device to root. It's got to be the worst out of all android devices. E.g my Samsung s9 had it rooted and flashed with a custom rom in around 5 mins. No matter what firmware is installed. Sony decided that after 23.1.A.575 or whatever rooting was not possible after that. Also every method on here telling you how to do it is different to each other and inconsistant. I tried 23.1.A.575 root for UK and it would not allow for twrp to be booted into. I had to use xperiafirm to download the Taiwanese version so I could get the batch script to allow recovery so holding down power on volume down would allow twrp to load. It's just a painstakingly horrible device to root to get something so simple. But yes your right probably best time to get rid and something different. Sorry for the rant it's just been a frustration for me.
Sorry to say so, but rcstar has a very good step by step description on how to install the ROM. I followed it to the point and have no issues whatsoever.
TWRP, Magisk and Substratum work, like everything else.
It's not a device which is easy to mess with, you are right. But it's doable.

I've followed so many without much success. I tried the solution by kulvertti to the letter and the tab was having non of it. I think the problem also is that a lot of the links are dead to the specific tft you need to download so getting the exact version is tricky. The only one that has worked for me is the Taiwanese rom then using the recovery script by danalec to get Marshmallow flashed which is what I'm running now. So I made a back up today and thought OK let me try carbon because I can get all the nice customization options like being able to choose a dark theme for the settings menu instead of piercing white. What is it with manufacturers wanna make every thing bright and painful on the eyes. Anyway downloaded gaps wiped system etc installed rom and once it loaded the system was all unstable and lost root and recovery. So I give up now and have to accept I can only have marshmallow on it.
Danalec has a very simple root method for Marshmallow in the general section. This is one of the best tablets out there by far. Build quality doesn't come close with other brands.
