EUI Version
CHINA with Play Store and Play Services - EUI 6.5
US (Android Aosp) - EUI 5.8.057S
Awesome! performing the upgrade to 6.5 today!
OK, I've got it installed EUI 6.5 rooted, but I can't seem to get Gapps installed for the life of me. using the script calls ADB, but I can't figure out how to enable debugging in my TV to allow that.. The new UI is just too different to locate what I need to do.
I take no credit for any of this work. I'm just a user who found the instructions vague and confusing. So once I figured out what I needed, I decided to document it here.
OK, I've gone through all the steps. Its kinda clunky but it works. I'll first warn you if Netflix is your thing, this probably isn't for you.
Netflix does work, but you're required to use the phone/tablet app from PUREApk. This evidently reduces the video quality quite a bit.
It was noticeable for me. Felt like I was watching somewhat artifacty 720p. To get there I had to enable settings for video quality to "HIGH" otherwise it showed up in SD which was way worse.
So if you enjoy 1080P or 4K netflix, this is not your upgrade. Also, if you don't wish to be forced to use keyboard/mouse. this is NOT your upgrade. If none of that matters to you, by all means feel free!
Step 1) First flash EUI 6 BIN FILE https://drive.google.com/file/d/1HBiM2WAllOQ43ONI7Jk3Gaey6P8FYDmo/view
To do that you must format a flashdrive using FAT32 and place the bin file on it with no other files or directories. Make sure the file is named LetvUpgrade938.bin .
I used my phone to format the flashdrive. Linux also works. I hear MAC users are gonna have a bad time, as it does something different with FAT32 making it go unnoticed.
Then place the flashdrive in the TOP USB port, completely turn off the TV. (unplugging TV helps)
Then point the remote on the TV and press buttons: SETTINGS, VOL +, VOL-, CH-, CH +, POWER. Pressing slowly, hold each button for 1-2 sec.
the TV should turn on in recovery mode and begin flashing the bin file. This take a while be patient.
You'll notice the TV comes on in chinese. If you need english use the google translate app and camera to convert chinese to english.
Get to home screen, press settings button, go to bottom System Settings, another menu will slide out, then General (3rd option down),
Next go to Time and settings (second option down), Go to right pane and 3rd/bottom option will be language. Select English.
Step 2) upgrade to 6.5 via offline update zip. DO NOT USE THE ROOTED BIN FILE YET, you'll have to start over if you do.
Download https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rbov4oeMUh49rSF2hvUPvoTqRXGbThYS/view and place it on the FAT32 flashdrive.
After skipping through the tutorials and jazz, go to the apps pane (press right button a few times) and go to system update -> offline update -> choose 6.5 zip file.
Step 3) Flash 6.5 rooted bin file https://mega.nz/#!GIYCxQLB!V2jBnfH0K5-DzUUWy6_RegDlnhglxpWJhVa8yd5NVKE
Basically repeating step 1, but now with the 6.5 rooted bin file. Congrats, you're rooted.
Step 4) Download the GApps install tool. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1DHViq0yJ_-RlV3LQ_BuQsxIKEk2ip7ZB
Be warned, this requires windows and isn't as straight forward as you'd hope. The app doesn't work until USB Debugging is enabled.
Also, you won't be doing this over USB. It'll be connecting ADB over Network. To do this you need to:
Go back to system setting where you changed language, but go down to saftey and enable "Application of Unknown Origin".
Now we need to sideload apps.
download https://apkpure.com/usb-debugging/com.bluedragonfly.developeroptions to the flash drive, and use the file manager to locate/install it.
download also https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1687590[/url] ADBD.apk to the flash drive and use the file manager to locate/install it
Open the first app and enable USB Debugging. Then open the second app to enable insecure ADB.
Now the janky GApps batch script should work. You'll want to perform actions 1, 2, and 3.
Sadly, this will factory reset your TV once again, and you'll have to go through the setup, but its no big deal.
Now if you want extra packages I suggest sideloading the PUREApk app from https://apkpure.com/. this will help you install the Netflix mobile app.
If you want to enable HDMI CEC by neekzz, Place https://mega.nz/#!aQQgiDyQ!ih9K6-rZ0yQoToDPoqAg93AN6Cy3L5JNsdMw7Fy-ADc
on the system/lib64/hw . Then turn off the receiver. Restart the TV... You'll need to know how to use adb to push the file.
REVERT ) So you've decided you've made a grave error, or don't care for some quirks, whatever the case may be, time to go back to US FW.
Step 1) Download US Stock firmware BIN file. https://mega.nz/#!fcwxGQ5I!FmO4xArY4ObmittoVNfnE21utvy8kkSSnTJFR9UXA3I
Format a flashdrive using FAT32 and place the bin file on it with no other files or directories. Make sure the file is named LetvUpgrade938.bin .
I used my phone to format the flashdrive. Linux also works. I hear MAC users are gonna have a bad time, as it does something different with FAT32 making it go unnoticed.
Then place the flashdrive in the TOP USB port, completely turn off the TV. (unplugging TV helps)
Then point the remote on the TV and press buttons: SETTINGS, VOL +, VOL-, CH-, CH +, POWER. Pressing slowly, hold each button for 1-2 sec.
the TV should turn on in recovery mode and begin flashing the bin file. This take a while be patient.
Step 2) Upgrade to last known US firmware available. Download the file from the following link:
http://g3.letv.cn/263/6/84/scmauto/...C058056B04201S_5.8.056S_0420_USER.zip?retry=0
Place the zip file on the flash drive. Go to System Update app and perform an Offline update and select the zip file.
And you're done. Welcome back.
Step 3) you may have some issues with Google Play Services constantly crashing. Latest Google Play services needs a newer version of Google play services to be installed .
Ridiculous, I know. Side loading the latest Google Play services apk can help resolve your issue. Download the apk from:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-play-services-android-tv/
Put it on your flash drive. Go to settings > Security > and Allow Unknown Sources.
Open File Manager > APK > and select Google Play services apk.

I did this basic setup for my woot acquired GTAB. The primary reason was to keep the stock ROM but get the fully functional Android Market. I wanted to give these instructions out to real newbies who may want to do the bare minimum to keep their TAB up and running with all apps and without doing a flash with custom ROM. I wanted to include a more step by step for people who are less tech savvy so please bear with the details if you are a tech guy.
1. Get the Over The Air update to update to 3588. The OTA push happens automatically if you have connectivity (wifi is setup). You can also check it via the updates app that should have come with the stock ROM.
2. Download the enhancement pack - TnT Enhancement Pack v3.1.4b file from http://www.megaupload.com/?d=74HGJNEL to your desktop or laptop. The file name should be TnT_Enhancement_3389_v3_1_4b.rar
3. Try opening the file using winzip or any zip program. If it doesn't install winrar version available at http://www.win-rar.com/download.html.
4. Extract contents to a local folder on your computer using the zip/ winrar program. It has files update.zip, a recover folder that contains a command file
5. Connect your TAB to the computer with the min-usb cable and activate the usb transfer (I think it comes up with that option)
6. GTAB should show up as another drive in your system. With windows explorer browse this drive to locate the "sdcard" folder.
7. Copy the update.zip and recover (containing command file) folder from the location you extracted on your computer (step 4) into the sdcard folder identified on step 6.
8. Power off
9. Power on by pressing and holding the volume + button and the power button simultaneously.
10. The TAB should show a open box screen in a few seconds and after some time should turn back on to the main screen with new apps installed. You should see the market apps icon as well
11. Do the market fix remedy to see all applications in the market by steps below. I added an alternate market fix (if you don't see all apps)
a) Run market
b) Open settings->applications->system applications
c) Force close Google Services Framework, then Force Close Market
d Go back to Google Services Framework, then clear data
e) Run market and confirm you get an error
f) Reboot
g) Wait 2 minutes and try Market to get all applications
h) If this doesn't work, look at the directions again and make sure you follow them exactly
Alternate market fix Steps - I haven't tested this but looks like a few extra steps (You need Titanium Backup installed and have opened Market and surfed around a bit. Thanks to blackjaguar who pointed to this)
1. Settings->Applications->System applications->Market then Clear Cache (if any) then Force Stop
2. Go back one and then Google Services Framework then clear data then Force Stop
3. Go to home and open Titanium Backup
4. Select Backup/Restore tab
5. Select Google Services Framework
6. Select Wipe Data
7. Go to home and open market (it will error and close)
8. Reboot your tablet
9. Open Market and you will have full market
The above steps are detailed in another thread

I just got my gtab from woot and basically wanted the same thing you did: the stock gtab plus the market. I followed your directions after spending the last week reading the massive amounts of posts on this forum. The only thing I did differently was installing CWM between steps 1 and 2, and repartitioning to the recommended 2048/0. It seemed like most people end up having to do that at some point. Your market fix however, didn't work at all for me. There's another fix posted by tsm26 that worked great for me. Its slightly different:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12563333&postcount=4400
The only app I still can't find in the market is Firefox, but luckily its available from ftp.mozilla.org.
EDIT: Just got the acore process problem, and had no contacts or /data/data folder at all. Used this fix and the problem is gone. Looks like it works for TnT Enhanced as well:

from other parts of the forum i went with the fix of using titanium backup to wipe data related to contacts (believe there were three separate items, contacts, contact synch, and something else). btw, I am running VEGAn 5.1.1.

I am going to update this with alternate market fix for anyone who is interested. Thanks.
Step 6 confused?
Just received my gtab and following your steps to install this upgrade, however after connecting gtab to laptop I see 4 folders at the root of "E:" when browsing through windows. I assume that "E:" is the sdcard directory and these folders are located in it. The folders I can see in this directory under the windows "E:" drive are - .android_secure, Android, DCIM & LOST.DIR. However if I browse to the "sdcard" folder using the file explorer on my gtab I don't see the .android_secure folder, but do see a folder called "update.zip", that I don't see when browsing the "E:" drive in windows. Now I am really confused? Do I delete or rename the "update.zip" directory currently residing in the "sdcard" directory on the gtab and then copy over the recover and update.zip folders that I just downloaded?
My tap ui version is 1.1-3389.
Are there any suggestions?
I think you need to disable the USB sharing and you will see the files.
This worked like a charm. I decided not to root and mod, at least for now, so getting the market is great. I didn't show the sdcard directory, but I had update and an empty recovery directory, so I just replaced them (after copying the old update.zip). It wiped out the photos and videos apps on my main screen, but I found some interesting replacements. And the market fix worked great too.
But I still can't find Words With Friends... Just checked the market from my laptop and it thinks it's not compatible with my device. Oh well.
I followed the instructions to the T and the market wont work... someone please help!!!!!
The first set of instructions did not work for me, but the alternate set did work. I now appear to have a full market. Awesome!
Just for the record, I am running the stock ROM updated to the latest VS release.
EDIT: Whoops, spoke too soon. No apps will download from the Market. When I try to download a free app, I get a "Starting download..." message but that's it. I'm also doing this at work... I think port 5228 might be blocked. Is this the reason? I will attempt from home tonight...
Help!

I've gotten to this point, but how long is some time, it has never turned back on to the main screen and now really won't boot at all, just goes to a blank screen and sit there.
Any ideas? Any help would be appreciated! Hope I haven't done something terribly wrong!
Spoke too soon?
Maybe I spoke too soon. Doing the market fix got me a lot more on the market, but there's still a lot of apps that I can't get. So many devs put their apps in market and nowhere else. Don't they realize that this is not itunes? (BTW, I've hit web sites that send me to itunes to download their apps...) How many other devices has google not approved for the market and are stuck like this? Even Firefox is undownloadable on my Android. Is that really the market fix or should I be able to access more?
So frustrating, but finally something seems to work
OK, new theory. Apparently I had to do the market fix twice. I also followed the video on this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9817939&postcount=17
That's not the gtab, so it looks a little different in the menus, but the steps still worked. I guess it threw in an extra step of clearing cache on market and force stopping it before stopping google services framework. Well, Firefox doesn't show up in market, but so far everything else does. Now I have to try to remember everything I've been trying to download.
I had to do the Market fix twice, but that was no sweat.
Perfect, gunajay; thank you very much for your concise directions.

Everything is working great using this Enhancement Pack and Market Fix. My question is whether my gTab is still considered stock with these changes? The forum messages about the new firmware update all caution against applying it if you are running an alternate firmware from 3588. I don't know if I am under the Enhancement Pack and Market Fix scenario or not.
no sdcard - help please
Hello all, found this post and as a complete newbie I was excited to see what the GTAB could be transformed into. Not quite ready for custom ROMS so I figured I'd start with Clockworkmod and trying to install the standard android market.
Problem is when I hook up my gtab I don't see an "sdcard" folder... Anybody have any ideas why that would be? How do I work around it?
I have the following folders:
.android_secure
Android
clockworkmod
DCIM
download
kindle
LOST.DIR
Master
Music
Photos
recovery
Videos
update.rar
Thanks in advance for your help!
Will this work with 4349?
Does anyone know if gunajay's instructions will work with with Stock 4349 and Market?

SDCARD is the folder that is mounted on your computer when you connect via USB. The list above are the contents of your SDCARD.
Doh. ;-) That worked. Thank you very much for the explanation K J Rad!
I'd bought this WE a little box from Engel Axil with Android 2.3.
This box is powered by an ARM CORTEX (armv7) processor with 512Mo of RAM and 2Go stockage.
More info HERE.
I'd installed openssh and I can see the return of 'uname -a':
Code:
Linux localhost 2.6.34 V1.3.0-70-gee2481e(20120217.100957) armv7l GNU/Linux
A spanish community seem to have succeed to make a ICS release for it HERE, but they don't say anything about the procedure to install this.
Is there somebody here which will be able to explain me how to upgrade my Engeldroid ?
With 'busybox installer' and ssh terminal, I am able to get root access.
Now I try to set the default home launcher to something else than original spanish launcher....
I'm interested in this too!
The EngelDroid 1007M looks just like what I need, but I don't like that its software is in spanish.

Hello Guys,
I'm living in Spain myself and bought me one of these nifty boxes as well and started to fizzle around with it.
Here are my findings with it so far:
Android:
The box comes standard with Android 2.4.3 (or was it 2.3.4, I'm at work right now and can't remember correctly ) but can be upgraded to a 4.0.3 version that is made by Mygica.es.
The link to download the upgrade is indeed the link you've posted.
To install this upgrade you will need to download the zipfile, rename it to update.img and copy it to a clean SD Card.
Make sure that the Engeldroid is powered off and put the SD Card in the Engeldroid.
Than take something pointy and press and hold the reset button on the back (the smal little hole) and plug in the power connection to boot the Engeldroid in update mode. You can release the reset button when you see the restore-android-logo appearing on the screen.
The droid will now look for the update.img on the SD Card and start updating your box. There will be a random offset message but that is nothing to worry about and does not give any problems with the installation.
The first time after installing this new Android version the unit will take up to 15 minutes to boot it due to installing all settings and default apps from this custom rom.
The normal remote control with the keyboard on the back won't work anymore, but the motion controller will. It is highly advisable to connect a wireless keyboard and/or mouse or combination. Myself, I'm using a Logitech K400 keyboard/touchpad combination which works flawless.
Another option for the Media Center tweakers would be to install Linux with XBMC on this.
It is nowhere comfirmed but that is how I am using my Engeldroid at the moment and it turned my droid box into a proper XBMC media center and Samba file server that shares all my movies from the connected disc on the network as well.
The install procedure is the almost the same as with the other ROMS, download, unpack the zipfile, make sure the file is called update.img, copy to the root of the SD Card, plug it in and reset the droid with the reset button hold.
The link for the specific build of XBMC Linux that is working with our droid I can't post here yet, but search on google for: Pivos XBMC-Linux Beta 100912 and you will find the Pivos forums with the release topic of this ROM.
Don't try the Android ROM from Pivos, it is not compatible with the Engeldroid EN1007M. No worries if you want to try it, it won't blow up our box but just won't install.
If you have any more specific questions, please ask or send me a message or email and I will get in touch with you.
Official update
There is an official update for this device to ICS 4 (site in spanish though)
engeldroid . com
Got to "Nueva ROM Android 4 ICS" --> "ROM Android 4 ICS" (I'd link it but I don't have 10 posts yet )
Hello all,
I have bought Media pad x1 501-u, unfortunately I updated it to Kitkat from there website, then my mobile turned into chinese and no google firmwork so I cant even sync my gmail contacts using gmail, I cant update my programs using playstore. and what is worse is that there is no arabic!! its my native language and I need help! PS: my mobile is not rooted.
what is the best solution??
501U is natively a chinese device = was never meant to be sold outside China.
Standard procedure with Huawei:
Download the ROM (Either from Huawei or EMUI), unzip and copy the dload folder onto the root directory of an SD Card of at least 2GB formatted in FAT32.
Power off the X1, insert card, power on also holding volume up (if not successful hold volume up&down). You know you did it right when mister droid shows up.
Screen may blank for long periods!!
When it reboots after showing update success, remove the SD card, or it will do it again.
To get google back you will have to download several apps from the Huawei store which is available on tge homescreen. Please refer to the thread "not synching Google contacts".

Hi,
Apart from the update.app file, you also have to download the attached file (only 9xx bytes) in the below post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56436713&postcount=6
extract it to your root microsd card, then put the "update.app" file in the dload folder; reboot your x1 or make local update (have to manually choose the file from external sd card). After successfully upgrading, don't forget to remove your microsd card and plug to your PC to delete the update files.
Once you successfully upgrade it to this kitkat, you will not have any goggle app/framework. You have to go to Huawei App Center. search for and download Google Play and Google Play service. Then, in the same Huawei App Center, search by typing "google", you will see a large google banner on the top of the search result, tap it and you'll see a lot of google stuff. At least you have to download google sync (look at calendar icon) and another google sync (look at contact icon). Once downloaded, you will be able to sync your google contact and calendar back. You can then download other google apps from Google Playstore.

Found a way !!!
Hi there,
I managed to successfully root my Mi Box 3 w firmware 1.3.114 . Thought I'd share
Tools needed:
- Male to Micro USB Female Converter Connector
- USB stick
Software needed:
- Mi image 1.3.106:
yadi.sk/d/Yvr1jYflm6GZR or
dropbox.com/s/72x76khqjlpekap/MiBOX3_jurassicpark_gitv_1.3.106.386.zip
- Kingo root for windows
kingoapp dot com
First you will need to downgrade the firmware to version 1.3.106.
Extract the contents of the downloaded zip file to a formatted usb tick (Fat32).
(Should be two files: xiaomi_update and update.zip)
Put the stick in your Mi Box and boot in recovery: unplug power, press and hold back + ok button ( or Home and Menu while rebooting ) while plugging the power back in. The remote should be nearby and facing the box. Do not let go of the buttons until it booted in recovery. the flashing should start and finish automatically.
After first boot make sure you disable Intelligent Update.
Second step is to root your box with Kingo.
Enable USB/ADB debugging and reboot (it's right there in the menu under security settings).
Install Kingo root on your pc or laptop and connect your box using a micro usb charging cable. This is where you'll need the adapter. Start Kingo Root, follow instructions and choose 'Root again'.
This will take a minute... done!
Any question let me know I will be glad to help .

It works great, the hardware is a beast! The only important issue I encountered so far is that sometimes it exits the video player, some other times just pauses the playback on Netflix, every 10 minutes or so. On You Tube it exits fullscreen mode, which can be quite annoying. The only solution I could find is this:
- In Settings (not the Chinese app, but the one that comes inside Shafa Market, or even better, make a google search for "startSettings.apk", download it , then install it on your Mi Box, this way you´ll no longer need Shafa Market), go to About the Phone section, and click repeatedly on the Build Version, till you are granted Developer rights.
- Back to Options, go to Developer Options, and change the number of background processes from Standard to None. You´ll have to repeat this last step every time the box reboots, but not after sleep/wake.
Done.
How did you install Google Services and does Play Store work ?

I suppose you already have a bluetooth/wifi/usb keyboard/air mouse at hand, and switched to English by now, if not, please refer to this post:
http://www.cnx-software.com/2016/04/12/how-to-change-language-to-english-and-install-apps-remotely-on-xiaomi-mi-box-3-enhanced/
I skipped Shafa Market, I downloaded instead startSettings.apk from here:
https://www.google.es/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&ved=0ahUKEwjb6Ir4pcjNAhUCNhoKHaj6BdcQFgghMAA&url=https%3A%2F%2Fdrive.google.com%2Ffolderview%3Fid%3D0B16bkj0QSkYnfjc1YXQ1YU1sSGVGOHZqY3FjWUNabUVJd1dSTFpSb1BZbnU4cVZQMi1hMUk%26usp%3Dsharing&usg=AFQjCNE5hETwCJgxaa0KE0MtCkzU_tJF-w&sig2=Xk-SKY_nzqTE7aLmkhevZg
Copy it on a pendrive (you might want to copy the other apk-s for the next step, as well), then install it by inserting it in either USB port. You´ll be prompted to allow installation from unknown sources, click yes 允许. It´s all you need to have on your mi box for tweaking, like changing the language, instead of shafa market. Once opened, scroll down to the globe icon, and change it to English.
Then, follow really carefully this step-by-step guide, it´s a bit cumbersome, but it definitely works:
http://flying8pus.blogspot.com.es/
A few pointers, though:
1 - When rooting the device (the same thing here, use a pendrive, download all the apk-s you need on it, and install them from there), be patient, in some cases people had to wait a whole night for the 100% and the victor´s cup to show up. Check it out, and if it´s not done after 10-15 minutes, you´re out of luck, you might as well just go about your day, it will be over at some point. Make sure that in the mi box menu the sleep mode is disabled (set it from 30 minutes, I think, to Never), and don´t touch it, don´t open any apps, let 360Permroot do its magic.
2 - After installing Play Store DON´T OPEN IT! Install afterwards You Tube, then open this one. You´ll be prompted then to download Google Web Services (or something like that) in order to function properly. If you open Play Store before You Tube, you´ll never be prompted, and it will not work, at least that´s what I´ve been told, and I trust the guy (my brother).
Unfortunately, very few apps are recognised by Play Store as compatible with the device (luckily mx player is one of them), but you need it anyway, otherwise some Google services might not work. What I use instead for ease of use is uptodown app market, not even close as abundant as Play Store, but I get by. Once you install an app from there, it will update as soon as a newer version is available, and it´s not as picky as Play Store in terms of compatibility.
Take your time and good luck.

Can you verify the model number on your box? Mdz-16-aa or mdz-16-ab? I did a bunch of research into rooting this box months ago and no one had found a way. I'm disappointed in the mdz-16-ab ever since I bought it. It has become more of a paper weight to me.

Get rid of "Game play time xxh xxm" notification
Guys my Mibox 4k always has notification
Game play time xxh xxm
At the bottom left corner screen how to get rid of it please help thanks
So, I got a Zte Avid Plus z828 (t mobile no sim card) that has frp so basically i cant get pass the google account verification screen. I have found a way to get into the settings and enable developer mode without no otg method or apk methods. I simply used the text to speech method where i open the source for that and then open up google and search settings allowing me to access the settings and enable developer mode via build version.
Now here's the problem I can click backup and reset but when i actually click RESET PHONE nothing happens. I can keep on clicking it and nothing will happen it's a button thats just there. I want to enable USB debugging with hopes of using adb shell and wiping the phone that way but i can't even access the developer settings. I click on the developer settings and nothing happens its the same situation with the RESET PHONE option. Why is this occurring? Anyone have any advice as to how i can get around this? I've tried downloading apks that would open the developer settings but it opens for less then a second then instantly closes. I'm new here so i'm not even sure if this is where i was supposed to even post this, sorry if it wasn't the correct place to post this. if you need me to elaborate anymore just ask, i'll gladly do it.
Hello Friend!! I also have the same problem with this phone. but I have not been able to enter the menu. as you could enter the menu of the z828? Thank you

Yeah I'll make a short guide I can try to post screenshots later but for now i'll try my best to guide you to the point where I am.
1. Go through the setup until you get to the google verifying part.
2. Open up your keyboard and hold down the comma to access the gear which will allow you to get into the google keyboard settings.
3. Once you're at the google keyboard settings go to Text Correction.
4. Then go to Personal Dictionary and select English (US) or whatever you have there.
5. Then click on the search button and just type random letters and hit search is what i did to get to this next step.
6.. You should be able to type in the letter "g" and you should see something called google voice typing
7. click that and go to Text-to-speech.
8. Then click the blue gear next to google text to speech
9. click install voice data
10. you should see 3 dots on the top right hand corner open that and click open source licenses
11. once you're at this part just simply hold a line down as if you were going to copy it.
12. you should see about 4 options on what you want to do with that line like copy or share it search it on the web.
13. what you want to do is click search, its the fourth option.
14. delete whatever is on the search and type in settings the option to access the settings should pop up on the bottom as a suggestion.
15. click that and now you're at the settings.
From here on i assume you know how to access the about phone and turn on developer settings but this is the problem you can turn it on but you cant access the developer menu you can just click it and nothing will happen. same for trying to reset the phone from the back up and reset menu.
if anybody knows what the case may be please let me know i'm constantly trying to find the solution to this whenever i have the free time but so far no solution has came up. i am able to download apks by instead of typing in settings on the google search i type in file manager and simply transfer over the apk through my pc onto the phone. that i can do without usb debugging becasue my pc picks the phone up as a portable device.
I fixed the zte avid plus z828 frp problem!
Dont mean to double post but after a week of trial and error I solved the problem. I bypassed the FRP and Hard resetted the phone. Phone's working 100% now. I can probably post a guide somewhere I guess if highly requested.
Feel free to close the thread as the problem is solved

Hello yerhope!
from your last report on zte z828 frp bypass, i understood that you finally fix the , not able to access the Developer option nor access the factory reset. I am very keen to know how you did it.
I am a victim of this same circumstance.
guide please?
cant click reset my self
Hey, I would like to highly request the tutorial....
Furthermore, I'd like to say I've poured over these sort of sites, rephrased my questions, etcetc all trying to get the same things accomplished, getting past the google password, and yet you with your quick clearly stated actually step by step explanation were the one to get me the farthest in fixing this problem. :highfive:

He said he resolved problem but put no feedback so others can benefit, I really doubt he resolved the problem of bypassing or unlocking or rooting his phone, he probably slammed it on the floor and resolved the problem that way. We don't need people like that here. I will try it when I get a zte z828 from someone that has the same problem, I will post feedback if I am successful or not, so by July 15, 2016, I should now if it is possible.

He did get in. I did get in myself but when i tap factory reset nothing happen.
(Security patched)
Maybe he did resolve it like i did.
Root and remove it with gcpro
Thats what i did.
On some ZTE phones (has worked on 1 but not another for me), you can use the emergency dialer to dial:
*983*987#
This will lead you directly into factory reset options (if it works).

From here on i assume you know how to access the about phone and turn on developer settings but this is the problem you can turn it on but you cant access the developer menu you can just click it and nothing will happen. same for trying to reset the phone from the back up and reset menu.
if anybody knows what the case may be please let me know i'm constantly trying to find the solution to this whenever i have the free time but so far no solution has came up. i am able to download apks by instead of typing in settings on the google search i type in file manager and simply transfer over the apk through my pc onto the phone. that i can do without usb debugging becasue my pc picks the phone up as a portable device.

So, I got a Zte Avid Plus z828 (t mobile no sim card) that has frp so basically i cant get pass the google account verification screen. I have found a way to get into the settings and enable developer mode without no otg method or apk methods. I simply used the text to speech method where i open the source for that and then open up google and search settings allowing me to access the settings and enable developer mode via build version.
Now here's the problem I can click backup and reset but when i actually click RESET PHONE nothing happens. I can keep on clicking it and nothing will happen it's a button thats just there. I want to enable USB debugging with hopes of using adb shell and wiping the phone that way but i can't even access the developer settings. I click on the developer settings and nothing happens its the same situation with the RESET PHONE option. Why is this occurring? Anyone have any advice as to how i can get around this? I've tried downloading apks that would open the developer settings but it opens for less then a second then instantly closes. I'm new here so i'm not even sure if this is where i was supposed to even post this, sorry if it wasn't the correct place to post this. if you need me to elaborate anymore just ask, i'll gladly do it.

Okay, I spent more time than i care to admit on getting through this frp. I have z3x and a few other utilities and i use them when i can, but i don't honestly lay hands on ZTE very often. Anyway, you do NOT need GC or any other box--
so following the last poster's steps (credit to yerhope):
9. click install voice data
10. you should see 3 dots on the top right hand corner open that and click open source licenses
11. once you're at this part just simply hold a line down as if you were going to copy it.
12. you should see about 4 options on what you want to do with that line like copy or share it search it on the web.
13. what you want to do is click search, its the fourth option.
this is where he leaves off... and where i pick up.
14. Download "quickshortcut maker" apk to your computer (or copy from apk extractor on a phone or any other method..
15. Select z828 in my computer and copy quickshortcut maker to downloads
16. On the phone, after clicking the search button, clear the browser box and type in "file manager" - it will show up just below. select it
17. Go to downloads in the file manager and select quickshortcut maker
18. install the app, blah blah blah
19. Once in the app, search "google account" you will have several pop up
20. Select the one that says "email and password" when you do, it will ask for a password to an account you aren't sure of.
21. click menu on top right - Browser sign in is the option - click it
22. Sign in to your email and account
23. Once you are signed in, press and hold power for a soft reset (restart)
24. Proceed as usual to wifi page and BOOM!
25. Profit. not much though, cuz its still a ZTE.

Does this mean you have confirmed this on ZTE?
Yerhopes solution worked for my zte lever
Follow yerhopes solution after step 15 while in settings go to backup and reset make sure back up data is off then factory reset erase Everything phone will reboot old owners info gone no need to download anything worked for 2 Zte levers i bought from ebay.
Bought a EE Jay Tablet (also a ZTE tablet) that had FRP enabled, easiest way I could do it was
1. connect to wifi, get to the previous account required screen.
2. open the keyboard and hold the @ symbol and open the keyboard settings.
3. top right corner press the 3 dots and choose help and type in apps in the search box.
4. access the app settings screen via the link from the help section then goto all and launch settings app
5. enable unknown sources in security and return to app settings screen and launch chrome this time or any browser.
6. goto http://rootjunkysdl.com/files/?dir=Apps and download this file com.sika524.android.quickshortcut.apk
7. you may get a download notification that the file has finished if not go back again to the app settings screen and all again and launch downloads app
8. you will now see the file download open it and install and then open the app
9. in the quick shortcut app search for google account and choose email and password and select try
10. now the google accounts manager has launched, in the top right corner press the 3 dots and choose browser sign-in
11. sign in with a google account and once done it will close and go back to the quick shortcut maker.
12. you still won't have access yet but all I done was reboot the device and continued the setup, this time there was no errors or required sign in and had full access.
Hope this helps someone, this was basically a copy of this video which may be helpful https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKdVvBSIb0M

I used this method, personally, for zte Avid I believe. Yerhope's solution works for some firmwares prior to firmware i was on. i'm sorry, i do not recall that at this moment as it was some time ago. if Yerhope's solution is not effective for you, then progresss to my steps that pick up right where previous solution left off. so once again, YES, this worked on my device, did not test for others. my understanding is kingo can acquire root access in a special way as well that will allow you to adb clear frp. looking for commands? i do not have them sorry.
