Hi guys and gals
I'm in need of some help guys. The solluction will probably be easy enough, however probably due to needing to translate the errors (dutch <-> english) I can't really find anything to help me...
The phone:
LG Nexus 5 24Gb and android 5.1.0 (LMY47D).
The goal:
Have a fake GPS app installed and hiding my root to spoof my location on android 5.1 with a security patch before the march 2017 patch (in compliance with this spoofing guide.
For this I need to do the following:
Unlock my phone
[*]Install TWRP
[*]Root
[*]Install fake GPS app ['GPS JoyStick Fake GPS Location' by The App Ninjas]
[*]Generate and rename a copy/privacymode of the app
Make the renamed copy/privacymode a system app (stuck on this step)
Instal Magisk (didn't get to this step)
Hide root with Magisk (didn't get to this step)
The errors:
I used Nexus Root Toolkit to install the androidversion 5.1 on my phone. The Hashcheck failed so I skipped it. Not sure if that's what's causing the error. For the installing of TWRP and Root is used: this guide from XDA. I installed the fake GPS app and made a renamed privacy/copy. Here comes the problem. I can't make that (or the original) a system app. I tried using Link2SD, luckypatcher and directly moving in TWRP. I get the following errors (note the screenshots are of trying to install the renamed privacymode/copy):
The screenshots:

My guess is that the programs can't access the storagespace on my phone for some reason.
The question:
Who can help me to get passed the 6th (and following) steps to achieve my goal with this phone? Please let me know if any more info is needed.
Ofcourse any and all help is greatly appreciated!
EDIT: Sorry guys, not sure why the images don't show up...

Hi all,
So I recently acquired a Japanese Android tablet for free from a friend, called the Smile Semi. I can't post a link but if you search for "Justsystems Smile Semi" an english article will be near the top. It's designed for elementary school students, so it comes with a heavily rewritten version of Android made my JustSystems. It does have some basic menus that are stock Android, but it's not entirely clear how to access the recovery partition and bootloader. I'm sorry I can't provide more information, I can't really find any comprehensive info in English, If anyone has experience with this device I'd appreciate some advice, and if not, any advice on how I should proceed to tinker with it myself would be very appreciated. Thanks!
I Hope This Helps you my friend

hi all,
need help with rooting my ZTE Nubia M2 Lite.
I found only two guides ( in foreign languages links below) that didn't work for me ( it's always stuck in the boot, step number 8 in guid 1).
and one general guide here, that lead to dead end
also tried "KingRoot" didn't help.
PS - I updated the phone when I received it you can see the version in the picture, couldn't get it back to the initial version by factory reset (I thought that maybe was the reason for the failed attempts).
any ideas please?
1) guid 1 that didn't work for me
2)guid 2 that didn't work for me
Thanks!

Root ZTE Nubia M2 Lite (NX573J)
I managed to root my Nubia M2 Lite (NX573J) using guide from this website https : // geekaxe.com/root-nubia-m2-lite-simply-using-flasher-tool/ . Please copy paste the url because xda prevent us to give any link (spam protection).
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/how-to-root-install-twrp-unlock-t3777323
This thread worked like a charm. Just make sure that you install ADB properly. You may have to ensure that the ADB drivers for your M2 are installed in Device Manager. I had to do this twice, once for the System and once for the Recovery before it worked right.
Hi, its my first time to do this.. and after many different readings, i have twrp installed and installed magisk.zip on my nx573j... but every time i reboot or power on, just get a cycle of the nubio logo with orange state blah blah blah... why won't it boot up to my screen? what step or more I should do? I really just wanted to root my phone so i could ext4 the sd card. any one can help me? thank you!
Hi,
Newbie here so go easy!
Ive been changing the settings on an imported chinese tablet such as boot image, remove bloatware, download apps required, etc and it works great. However, I want to be able to create a full image of one tablet and transfer that to other tablets I buy so I dont have to manually do this every time. Basically a full backup and restore of everything on the tablet.
Can anyone assist on the best process to do this.
Thanks
If device's Android got rooted then you can perform a full NANDroid backup by means of either TWRP or FlashFire. FYI: ROOT is required for mounting all partitions as RW.
TWRP:

Hi, I worked out why flash fire was crashing, but some of the items in the app are greyed out so it doesn't allow a back up. I think its because I still have the standard recovery that came with the tablet instead of something like TWRP. And I cant find one online that will work.
Are there any other ways to do a full back up programmatically?
Hello everybody
First time poster thanks for the help in advance. Please note I am a total novice when it comes to anything like rooting or unlocking boot but i can follow instruction if you leave them.
I bought my phone from Ali express global launch event. When I received the phone i noticed some basic functionality is missing for example : Gallery, File explorer, CAMERA APP. and so on.
It doesnt make sense, my camera works through whatsapp and such but no dedicated app.
I am starting to think the firmware was faulty. Waited for few updates hoping it will sort itself out, but no luck.
Now I am considering installing stock firmware but I have no idea where to start. I have downloaded few roms "different versions?" but i don't know how install them on my phone. They are on the root of the phone storage but i assume i must root my phone to get fast boot ? because i tried restarting with holding volume down, after language selection i can chose between wipe and reboot no update option.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
If you use the App Drawer view, you may find the missing icons there.
In settings/app-management/app-list you will find all installed apps.

Only found files in app list but I can't open it. Other apps have options of : open, uninstall, and force stop but not this app. For the other apps like camera and gallery they are not there. Do you think a fresh install of stock ROM will help or no ?
If the apps are not displayed in your app list, the best thing you can do is do a factory reset.
Which firmware version do you have on the GT ?
The GT was in its original packaging and shrink-wrapped when you received it ?
Ya it was brand new. Bought from Realme official store.
I see your firmware is A 16 mine is A13 but when I check for update it says am on the latest version?!
Also my Google backup is greyed out so factory reset will set me back big time.
