Guys, please help. I tried everything with Flash Tools and nothing. There are a few Russian sites that claim to have rooted it, but my Russian is simply zero.
Anyone?
Bootloader is locked too.
Your help will be much appreciated.
Do you still need root ? i kinda find a way how we can root every chinese phone if there is SP_Flash_Tool package for them.
how: ?
download : "HOMTOM-HT20-Pro-Android_6.0-R15-20180302"
unrar, inside are 21 file (atlest for me) , (dont delete original boot.img, make copy somwhere else, then delete it from homtomp package folder)
Then copy boot.img to your phone
download magisk manager, instal it, open magisk manager, press instal, chose Patch Boot Image File.
patched file need to be in downloads as patched_boot.img, copy it to HOMTOM-HT20-Pro-Android_6.0-R15-20180302 folder
rename it to boot.img (original boot.img alredy backuped in different location), replace original boot.img with patched boot.img .
use SP_Flash_Tool , you can flash all, or chose only boot.img (i used firmware upgrade, but if it not work, use download only)
then you shuld be able to instal magisk manager and acces root. Tested mydelf with homtom ht20 pro, all works, can spoof pokemons etc.
I am looking for flash file Homtom HT20 with android 7.0 or higher. Any help?

HOWTO - root PMP5080B
There is a way to root the tablet.
But it it does not root the runnning version, it roots the update image.
So if don't have the most actual firmware try this:
(maybe you can flash the firmware even it is not newer, but i don't know how)
Todo (Windows PC necessary):
At first load the latest firmware and unzip it:
h t t p : / / w w w .prestigio.com/info/product/downloads?NODE_ID=61101103718510974&ITEM=110706112617507776
Download the Wendal tool:
h t t p s :/ / docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B8h...RjZjFmODdiZTQ1
Then follow this steps:
1. Unzip the Wendal tool, you get a folder named "RK29xxImagetools_v2.1".
2. copy the update.img from Prestigio firmware download in the "RK29xxImagetools_v2.1" folder and rename the file to "wendal.img"
3. start "Runme.bat"
4. press "1", you get the message that you have to rename your file. Since you have already done this before proceed. The batch file starts, make sure you dont see any errors.
5. press "2" followed by "Enter". The rootet image will be created automatically
6. end the programm with "3"
7. in the "RK29xxImagetools_v2.1" you will find a file named "wendal-new.img", copy it to your SD card and rename it to "update.img".
8. put your SD card in your tablet, you will get a message to update your firmware
9. the tablet reboots, flashes the new firmware
10. be happy with your root access
Still having problems.
i have done what you said for me to do but when i rename the firmware to "wendal.img" and run it for some reason it keeps saying i haven't put the firmware in the folder when i have. do you know what how you can sort this out.
cheers
Did you unzip the firmware download?
Tried, tested & confirmed working
Just like to note that the software used will give you a warning about placing the update.img in the correct folder and renaming it even when it has already been done. You just have to press enter!
I have 5080B and i want to root it, but on ICS stock rom. Problem is, i cannot use wendal tools cause it can't add su and superuser.apk into /system ("no such directory") and even earlier i used to root gingerbread with these tools it is half-root - /system not rw, but superuser works
i saw update 2.0.2 from prestigio, pre-rooted, but i want to root this, newest version, 2.0.3
i have linux setup running and i tried mounting system.img but i can only add su, and nothing else cause there's no space...
also, how do i boot recovery from the device itself? i tried vol- and power key but there is an image of an 'destroyed' Android bot, no options there at all
Same problem - want root on Prestigio PMP 5080B
Just got a Prestigio PMP5080B running ICS 4 and want to root the tablet. I read from the preceding message that thhe method discussed here doesn't seem to work with it. Any ideas would be most welcomed here too.
By the way Hi!

If you want, i can share my rootet version 1.0.26 for you, i still have the old .img file
But actually i am using this version on my pad:
http://x--t-e-a-m.blogspot.de/
I think it is far better than the original firmware (root included, it is Android 4.1 !)
Italian people did it, so maybe bing translator can help you

Hello
here i am posting here because i cant post on Miscellaneous Android Development , how ever i think i post there before while working on B5512
I Just got new G700 it came with B115 middle east channel , phone is good but as a start is there is a update i must ask my self is root ready , and CWM for sure so i start the digging
@chamaruco thank you for your great thread which saved and helped many people
now i got a file and i think you were looking for it ""G700-U10_V100R001C00B124CUSTC432D001_Firmware_Portugal_Channel-Others_4.2.1_EMUI 1.8_05021LMW.zip"" it contain usb upgrade and sd upgrade with drv and flash tool
i notice EMUI 1.8 not 1.6 which i saw for example a permission manager with it on P6 is that here in that rom too ?
is that rom improved than mine b115 phone is good for first look but
(in B115)
1-camera quality is strange i dont mean bad but it look very strange it is like very poor on quality
2-in call volume is too low in my opinion all " in test mode"
Question now did any one get that update "EMUI 1.8 B124" can tell is there is any improvements ?!
Question am i able to flash CWM image directly with flash tool to save some annoying procedures ?!
a member here provide flasher and cwm.img and orginal recovery.img

want to strike it all once
i will upload "EMUI 1.8 B124" soon as it came from a private server

When you install 1.8 you will notice there is only a tap error from uploader..it is a 1.6 emui. That's all.

But my mobile does not boot into CWM recovery mode as i have seen in my previous Qmobile A8 it always restarts in the defualt recovery mode which only give options to "1. reboot, 2. update from SDcard, 3. update from cashe, 4. wipe/delete user data and wipe/delete cache and in the last there is a calibarate TP, AND OFF COURSE THESE ALL ARE THE ANDROID BUILTIN RECOVERY STEPS NOT OF THE CWM
And off course there is not any file or folder named update.app in the downloaded .zip/extracted file. "as i have mentioned above the folder contains a folder named META-INF and three img files named as boot cust and system while a .bin file named logo too.
THANKS FOR YOUR TIME AND HELP.

So after I select the Reworked scatter file there is only the sec_ro partition checked to flash. So after flashing it do I now select the previous scatter file and then flash everything (including preloader)?
I rooted my phone, and then i was trying to flash a Marshmallow Rom. For this, i wiped my system, boot, dalvik cache, internal memory. I forgot to take a nandroid backup. For some reasons, there was some error in flashing that zip file, so i tried to reboot my phone normally and it failed. When i reboot my phone, the company logo appears and it remain sticked there. For now, i could only access the recovery and fastboot. Please HELP me..... Thank you.....
You got exactly same problem with me but i have model: Honor7 Premium (PLK-L01)
Hi,
what did you expect? If you wipe de system partition then obviously the operating system is gone.
What you need to do is to download the full stock rom of your phone somewhere on the internet (needrom.com for instance if available).
You need to take the closest version of your old system and also the same technical name (PLK-UL00).
For instant if you were already on Android 6.0, you can no longer use a stock rom of Android 5.x.
When you have that full stock rom on your computer, you need to use multi-tools and use the unbrick option. Meaning you will be asked to extract the most important img files from the stock rom and to put them into a specified folder. The tool will then restore that rom on the partition file.
Kind reg,
I had android lollipop 5.0.2. Is it possible that i install the backup file of any other person's honor 7 PLK-UL00 running same android?
Hi,
please have a look there and use the stock rom that fits with your model and version.

Kr,
how do i flash an UPDATE. APP file?
Create folder called dload on your SDCard and copy Update.app file to your SDCard inside that "dload" folder.
Then shutdown your device and use 3-Button method(Vol- & Vol+ & Power button) to boot that to recovery, that should start installing "recovery" file what is that Update.app inside dload folder.
Sent from my PLK-L01 using XDA-Developers mobile app
i don't know but the 3-button method is not working. When i do so, it boots to the recovery and nothing happens. Anyways, i have copied the dload folder with update.app file to the sdcard.
Use Multi-Tools available in the forum. There is a little app where you will be able to extract all required files from the file update.app.
Then in multi-tools use unbrick option and it will install the stock rom correctly. ++

Hi all recently purchased the Mecool KM8 P 2GB/16GB S912 Amlogic, updated the firmware to 7.1 but lost root access. I have managed to find some instructions on a Russian website to root the stock firmware but can't make head nor tale of it and don't want to brick the device.
The google translate version of the instructions reads as follows:
To get root 7 Androide did:
1.Nado SuperSu create a text file without an ending .txt textBOOTIMAGE = / dev / block / boot
2. Flash card throw Recovery for 7 Androyd created Fail SuperSu and SuperSU.zip (5,63 MB)
3. Boot into Recovery with USB there "Advanced" ==> "File Manager" find the file on a flash drive that put his name it .SuperSu in and copy it into the folder / system
3. Without leaving the Recovery go to "Set" and set SuperSU.zip (5,63 MB)
Can someone please help to decipher the above?
Here's the link to the instructions website. The downloads are pinned to the top of the page. Please let me know if you have any success...
http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=807465&st=1100#entry62380504
1. Create a texfile with this content:
BOOTIMAGE = /dev/block/boot
If I am not mistaken then this file should be saved wit the name .SuperSU and no extension.
2. Copy this file and the Supersu.zip onto a SD with a working TWRP recovery.
3. The file .SuperSu is now to be copied into the system folder - it does not specify if the one from the box or the one from the recovery is used - I assume the one on the box. But needs to be tested to be sure.
4. Without ending the recovery session go back and install install SuperSu.
Thing is you need a recovery that works with Nougat to do any of this.
But then again translators suck and someone capable of reading russing could bring some light on it....
Managed to get it to work. Steps in common English are as follows:
To get root on Android 7.1:
1. Create a text file (eg in Notepad) and name it Supersu without an ending .txt with the folowing text BOOTIMAGE = / dev / block / boot
2. On a microsd card copy Recovery.img (TWRP 7), the created SuperSu file (from step 1) and SuperSU.zip (5.63 MB)
3. Insert the card into Boax and boot into Recovery.
4. Using theTWRP recovery got to Advanced" then "File Manager" find the created Supersu file (from step 1) and copy it into the folder / system.
5. Without leaving the Recovery go to "Install" and flash SuperSU.zip (5.63 MB) from the Microsd card
can you post the required Files here?
i dont understand russian so i dont know what they wrote on 4pda.ru
I have found all file and attached at end of the Post
1. decompress km8p.zip to the root of your TF-Card so you have 3 Files on the root of your TF-Card (.SuperSU, SuperSU.zip and recovery.img)
2. power off your KM8P
3. Press Reset and hold it
4. Power your Box on and hold Reset
5. If you see the TWRP-Logo you can stop press Reset
6. On the Screen accept write and modifying Systemfiles
7. go to Advanced" then "File Manager" copy .Supersu file from TF-Card in/ system of your Box
8. then go to "Install" and flash SuperSU.zip (5.63 MB) from the TF-Card
9. Reboot and now you have root installed

I think you uploaded the wrong file, as the zip file you uploaded only contain one file (km8p), which has no file extension (it is probably a .zip file).
However it is missing the other files you are talking about, so could you upload the right files?
Thanks for the effort!

I attached the TWRP for Android 7 here, if you still need it.
I have also started a thread on how to root with Magisk instead of supersu, as supersu wouldn't work for me.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android-stick--console-computers/amlogic/howto-km8-p-2gb-8gb-s912-amlogic-tv-box-t3745937
this is a guide for some user running stock Realme UI 2 on rooted device. while stock recovery wont work after unlocking bootloader and magisk installed (UPDATE: apparently stock recovery are working but you have to wait around 30minutes in order to boot into it). the only option for us is using custom recovery. but custom recovery wont recognize the updates because it's unusual format and its unusual location. Be careful!! I'm not responsible for any damage you may encounter doing this guide. I will try to help as far as I could do
(this guide are documentation from rui2.0 c.09 to c.15 update. where rui1.0 to rui2.0 upgrade im using stock recovery )
first of all, we need to download updates from ota server. simply enter Settings app, scroll down and select Software update. wait untill finished, you'll be prompted to install when it's done. but don't have to do that, it only reboot to recovery doing nothing.
now preparing the updates.
the downloaded files are located inside
Code:
/data/ota_package/OTA/.otaPackage
there are 6 files (may vary) and all of them are flashable zips except system_vendor that needs slight modification. copy or move those files to internal or external storage (i personally put those files on /sdcard/updates/). then add .zip extension by renaming (put ".zip" in the end of file name).
modifying system_vendor.zip
extract system_vendor into separate folder. after that, navigate to META-INF/com/google/android/ now edit updater-script replace RMX2151L1 (or similar) with RMX2151 to avoid installation errors. on TWRP, this phone is only recognized as RMX2151 regardless it's actual phone model ( it needs confirmation from other realme 7 users ).
now back to system_vendor folder and replace vbmeta.img file with vbmeta from attachment. after doing all steps simply repack all files and folder into zip with normal compression parameter. (you don't have to replace vbmeta file, but you have to flash modified vbmeta after that to avoid bootloop)
all files are ready to flash using TWRP (or your own preferred custom recovery). flashing this zip might replace bootloader with stock so flashing Magisk are preferred or you'll lose root access.
the intention of making this thread are opening discussion about realme updates. maybe someone out there could make all those steps simpler and easy enough
