Did not realize I bought this tube until I opened it. Works great, has an SD slot. My question is can I root this? Too late to return it and get the shield.
It would help to know the name and model.
I think I got my answer already from another post
""i dont think a method exists for the 2019 nstv (tube) since theres no way to plug in a usb to pc without hardware modifications..""

Hey guys whats up, I'm wondering if anyone has any tutorials on how to root this android device.
(add ebay here) /itm/390819936531?var=660230775489&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
It is an iRulu 7 " tablet, as you can see I've posted an eBay posting on where I actually bought it from. This device surprised the heck outta me on all what it can already do, I would like to unlock more power if possible.
If anyone has any thought on how to actually root this device that would be great, I've tried pretty much everything so I don't really think its available. I think the problem resides on the computer you are on not recognizing the device after you had the driver installed.
Hi fellow xda'rs,
I recently bought a Android TV Stick from Geek(app) from china.
I thought I had found a bargain as its specs were:-
2GB RAM
Quad Core CPU
16GB Storage
I managed to snap this up for £24 which I thought was a bargain but when I got the device delivered and was using it I thought it was a little on the slow side so I began to think it was a clone as its default OS theme was not the same as the usual CX919's aswell.
So I wanted to flash the device with a new ROM specifically the Finless 1.6b ROM.
So after following the instructions to installing the ROM using the software provided with the ROM download I managed to install the drivers and get the software to recognize the device. I then wiped the NAND and attempted to install the ROM but it failed .
Now the device does not boot at all and is not recognized by the PC. Windows just states the device is not recognized and has malfunctioned
So I cannot flash any other or what I believer I have found to be the original ROM for the clone device.
The board states its a GXT_D16_LP_V1.8 150310
I have seen that there are tutorials on putting the device into Mask Flash mode by shorting pins but as this is for the genuine CX919 my board is totally different and does not have the pins available to short I think.
In short could anyone help me to put this device into Mask Flash mode and tell me what id need to do and what pins to short please?
I have attached a couple of pictures of the device and board.

problem solved! :d
i found the mask flash mode pins to short by trial and error and luckily enough after 1 hour i solved it and got the pc to flash it back to its original rom. If anyone has the same device or issues and would like to know how to solve this i will be happy to help
I would be interested. I have a very similar clone (was supposed to be mk809iv). I have the same board although possibly different chipset.
I haven't bricked it (yet) but will probably do so if I can't find a way to root it. I think it may have come pre-rooted as super su was preinstalled but it has never worked (possibly because the app updated but not the binary?). I have since tried to update the binary and killed the root access completely.
Questions:
Is the ROM you used pre-rooted or rootable (if you've tried)?
Which pins need shorting? I have a button on the side that may be doing the same thing.
OT. How do I upload images or can I not as a new member?
Thanks in advance
any guide? i have the same device or where to download rom?
If your still looking, i might be able to help with a rom, root, and guide.
Thank you but managed to get root the same day you posted. I may still give it a go when my new tv box turns up though if you dont mind posting the info?
For anyone else interested in how I gained root:
1. Search for, download and install kingroot 4.6.5 (this is the version I used, only the latest version is available from official site and cannot be sure next steps will work with it)
2. Run kingroot and follow steps to gain root (dongle may reboot)
3. BUY super sume from play store.
4. Run super sume and follow steps to replace kingroot with super su.
what pins did you short

Hello,
Having some problems with this stick .Messed up trying to flash a non rooted rom and now I only get a blue icon in rkbatch tool ( after short pin 5-6 ) and nothing happens. Download boot fail errors for a year...
Can someone help me please?
Is it the same model? What version of rkflash tool are you using. And what version are you trying to flash. In my case I didn't need to short any pins.

I've used several batchtools from 1.5 ( doesn't see my device at all ) to 1.8, different roms ( neomod, finless, stock cx919 roms )hoping one would give me something. All different bootloaders 1.24, 2.08, 2.13,...
I'm going to check mine out. It's been a minute since I used it. But I got the rock chip tool and the img file. I'll zip it up and pm you the link asap.

Hi guys,
After a lot of problems I had with my Fire HD7 as explained here http://forum.xda-developers.com/amazon-fire/help/fire-hd7-stuck-boot-loop-t3283194 , I decided to flash the 5.2 bootloader via TWRP, so as to be able to update via sideload and get back to 4.5.3 to root and update later on, I completely bricked my device, such that it won't turn on anymore, but is recognised by my PC as MTxxx-Preloader, something like that at least.
After going round some threads on the Fire HD forums, I found a solution talking about the use of the fastboot cable.
But all the threads are about 2nd Gen Fires, where as mine is a 4th gen.
EDiT : I had it all wrong when I downloaded the wrong bootloader file, i.e : 5.2 recovery_uboot instead of 5.2_recovery_only
Could someone really help me out of this messy situation, cause I'm really angry at myself for the mess up i've made...
Thx for reading...

Sorry to say this is now unrecoverable. Amazon will replace if you're still under warranty.
Warranty, I don't think so, cause I ain't even the one who bought it, and after the root and all ..
Is a warranty restored if you have unrooted, or lost root access somehow?

The warranty period starts when the device was first registered. Amazon can tell you if it is over or when it will end. Your problem now is: "My tablet won't start." No need to describe all the gory details about how it got that way.
OK thx, will try
Would a factory cable help get into fast boot with the same kinda issue? my computer shows it as the same "preloader" device after trying to go back to 4.5.3 for xposed. I followed the directions like 7 times in a row but still got a brick, in over 5 years of flashing roms, rooting ect this is 1st device I have bricked.
No, the factory cable is useless with this model
well I have searched around and cant seem to find solution. I'm a newb that has been dealing with a former friend that flashed a custom build on my galaxy note e from Verizon. well it seems he can control and get my info from wherever he is. I bought a new computer seeing my others weren't equipped. the fact is I need to get my pad back. I had two previous accounts here one was paintmaster pro and the other masterhide. he somehow was able to make them un accessible to me. so is there a way to get my original os back? or just stop the remote access he has? PLEASE HELP I AM HAVING PHSYICAL SYMTOMS NOW DEALING WITH THE STRESS FROM THIS. the build # he used is LMY47x.T3773vvRU1AOL7 . I'm new but not stupid all I need is a little direction and advice. I bought flash drives one is 65gb on sale for17.99 at store plus new sd cards as he has something attached to them. I found Facebook katana and canary programs. I'm not tech savvy enough to just hook up to new computer and check only for the fact that I'm afraid he has something planted to get into my computer if he hasn't already.
There wouldn't be anything on the tablet that would be able to hijack your new computer, unless he works for the NSA.
You can follow the information found here http://droididea.com/update-verizon...6-0-t377vvru1bpd6-firmware-stock-marshmallow/ to update your tablet to the newest stock firmware. This will erase anything he would have done to it. You should also factory reset it as well. I suggest using the Odin method because if it's been modified, the OTA wouldn't work and Kies might not recognize.
Guys, the phone went into brick mode simply while charging. Please help me with links or ideas on how to find / create a debricking .zip or folder to flash this Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 - 8930AB device.
Why would a service get use of my money when I know it is possible to reanimate this small evil by myself? People keep talking on russian forums about using tools like xPRG ... HEX/ MBN files... Miflash for Qualcomm... QPST software.. and stuff like this... but they are very general in explaning things... Help me!
Thanks!
Same problem here please help anyone

I hope this is not necroposting, but what do you mean for brick? Explain, is it hardware or software? And how is it going now?

Necroposting at its finest, but i thought i would write here, so the thread creator might find something useful.
Here is my problem, samsung galaxy express 2 aka sm g3815, gone bricked while charging, i had custom recovery installed, although i do not seem to be able to remember the version, and root, flashed with Odin, everything worked perfectly for...almost a year, i guess. One day, my lil hero died. :crying: My computer seems to detect something plugged in, saying that it some QHUSB_DLOAD device. On some research I understood the Qualcomm reverted or switched to some sort of fail-safe state where it requires files to be written back in the device(correct me if im wrong). It`s been in deep coma for a few months now, everyone said "just buy a new phone and save yourself the hassle". Nope, my mind is set on repairing my hero. On other threads i found out it is possible to revive a phone in this state, using a class 10 or above microSD card and writing a debrick image. Problem was, i searched the seas of gold for the darn debrick image, none found. Until a few days ago, one of my workmates has a Galaxy Express 2, and said he can hand it to me so that i can copy what i need from it after the holidays. Both phones run on 4.4.2, his phone is all stock rom, no cwm or twrp, no root no nothing. It is coming in my hands in a few days. Does anyone have the patience to clearly write what must i do to get my hero working again? It`s been sucky here without it, currently stuck with a samsung Star 3 i reflashed myself, but that lil thing ain`t no Android. I have two class 10 microSD cards, one 8 Gb, one 16 Gb,with backup done, and i saw on other threads that i need to use the 8 gb one, since the phone`s internal was 8 gb. Anyway, sorry for the long novel, it`s my style tho, give as much info as you can so the people helping you know what they`re messing with haha feel free to ask for any extra information. If we ever meet, I`ll buy you a beer or two.....dozens
Cheers!
