I don't think it'll be easy to find roms for that model, since it's far from being common worldwide, and the roms for the i9500 probably won't work on it (who knows though).
I hope I'm wrong though.
Your best bet will probably be to check chinese forums for roms working on that device, I guess you can set them in english too.
EDIT : I did find this thread, but I think it's a stock rom : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2251357 .
The problem seems to be that you can't root it yet, and you can't install any Google apps (including Google Play).

Root is here: http://bbs.25pp.com/thread-129613-1-1.html

You're the man. Really looking forward to use this method when my SGS4 I9502 arrives.

rooted my i9502 and installed play store and when i opened the play store it closed it right away!!!!!
is there a mothed to install the play store?!!!!
by the way theres no error's when closing the play store its like theres a program that shut it down.

This is because China doesn't have an agreement with google to allow google apps. You will have to make the device think it is something else. You may lose dual sim in doing so.

I had the seame problem, in a nutshell :
Google for GoogleLoginService.apk and GoogleServicesFramework.apk
With adb you can install the 2 files if your device is rooted
adb root
adb shell mount -o rw,remount /system
adb push GoogleLoginService.apk /system/app
adb shell chmod 644 /system/app/GoogleLoginService.apk
adb push GoogleServicesFramework.apk /system/app
adb shell chmod 644 /system/app/ GoogleServicesFramework.apk
Now the play store should work

adb comes with the android sdk, is a bit much to explain, but there are many howto's written already
One of them : http://www.howtogeek.com/125769/how-to-install-and-use-abd-the-android-debug-bridge-utility/
Or a shorter way, your chinese phone is probably a clone with mtk chipset, you can install mtkdroidtools, adb is included. Don't forget the mtk 65XX (probably mtk6577) drivers

Hi r_theboss
You really succeeded ?
Could you do me and the forum a favour?
Can you discripe First how you rooted (step by step ala cookingbook) ? The Chinese page through the Translationen is me too insecure.
And the Second step you made via adb is easy doing or do i have to be professional ? Some hints would be helpfull too !
Thanks and hoping that you reply,
Goes like hell

Still there's some force close but i'm going to put the steps right here so we could all work on it
first you must do root for your device and these are the steps from the same http://bbs.25pp.com/thread-129613-1-1.html website and you do it on your own responsibility!

Do as shown in the picture,
Click start to start rooting phone and it will automatically restart, now you got ROOT access
This is for the root part
Now download this file and put it in you device
http://www.mediafire.com/?enbo8wix7114i36
******** You will get some force close for this part i think because these files for Nexus and there's some duplicate in some app's like Gallery and Camera and Email and if you restarted you device it keep on upgrading the App's don't know why but it work just fine ********
After that get in the recovery mode: shut down your device and press phone volume up + home + power button for 5 sec and then let go
you will enter the recovery mode
Go to "install zip from sdcard"
then "choose zip from sdcard" now choose the file that you have downloaded it in your device
go back and reboot your device
and thats what i have done.

"do it on your own responsibility!" Thats for sure !!!
But let me first say thanks for your doing !! :fingers-crossed:
I am longing for my 9502 but it will come earliest at the end of june.
Maybe we can before that discuss whats the Reading for the "Force close". Here are a lot of specialists on the run.
Somebody else an idea for r_theboss and me ?
"i think because these files for Nexus and......", but are the gapps Not belonging to jellybean-Versions instead of hardware(Nexus,Samsung,etc ?
Thanks for the Forum, thanks for r_theboss

One post before !

the issue is when we use this method supersu complains "SuperSU is not installed and cannot be installed. There is a problem." We can boot into CMW... but after rooting this method we cannot install or run apks...
r_theboss
can you run supersu?

Dear all,
I would suggest not to try the above method as I beleive it is either a fake or a half baked method. I went to the Chinese forums and there are others with the same problem with no solution. I would say this is a broken method. I tried to use the CMW recovery to flash the latest SuperSUv1.25 and SuperSU does not install and the apk also is deleted.
I would wait for a method from xda developers...

what i have done isn't fake and you could try it for your self, and the Play Store, Gmail, Gallery, Camera, Email for the Nexus all work just fine.
now i'm having problem with the storage its all most full don't know why but still working on it, and i have tried the root explorer to delete some apps but no luck for it to work.
and about the SuperSU it didn't work even after the root and i have tried many method's but none work, i think the rooting files are not complete or some thing is missing because the CWM is working just fine but the SuperSU is not.

Hi r_theboss,
I'm not saying your method is fake, I am saying the Chinese page one maybe. I have also followed that method and installed GAPPs and it crashes and freezes consistently and is virtually not usable as a phone. I just don't want others to think this is a viable method at the moment. Alsoo everytime on reboot it says android is optimizing X apps
Also I have downloaded a root checker for my phone and the results are just freezing and constant crashing when I run it. I don't think it is rooted.

Hello mate. I got my Blade V from the virgin shop. I am already a virgin media customer so I got the phone for £81.99 and they gave me a free PAYG sim card and £10 top up. I will sell the top up for 7 pound so I get the phone for £75 which is a damn good price.
Very impressed with the phone. It is not as sleek as the galaxy s4 mini or htc 1 but for the price it is 110% worth it.
Hy is any chance to unroot LGL3E430 with this tool

I have root. I'm on version 13.3.1.0 on my 7" HDX. If you follow the tutorial it should work. (It did for me) What version are you running?
Says 13.3.0.2_user_302075320. Installed on Monday Jul, 29th, 2013 5:01 PM
Just got the tablet today and have not updated anything at all. My tablet cant check for updates since before I turned it on I blacklisted the IP addresses from my router that Amazon uses to push updates to Kindles
Hurry, update to 13.3.1.0 before a newer update comes (or download the update here and for directions to manually install the update). Don't blacklist those IP's until you root it. Update first.
Once you get root you can configure iptables on the tablet to blacklist it but im testing this. I got root 2 hours ago. Once I get it working I'll post a tut.
But you need to be on version 13.3.1.0
Alright I am downloading it now on the tablet, but it seems to be taking a while so I doubt I will get a chance to try for root again tonight.

That's fine. It's a over 700mb. I will be downloading it too, for a backup if Amazon decides to take it down. Good luck!

1: Download Minimal ADB and Fastboot and install it. here
2: Get the adb drivers and install. here
3: Download latest Busybox to your HDX and install it. (It will not run untill you have root, this is for later.)(I got it from 1mobile market here)
4: Download jcase/fi01 code here
5: Download Moronig redone code http://goo.gl/4gBmq5
6: Enable adb on the Kindle
7: Connect Kindle to computer
8: Goto Device Manager in Control Panel
9: Look for the unsupported adb device (if not found safely remove hardware the kindle on the taskbar)
10: Click the unsupported device and click update driver then point it to the android_winusb file in the driver install directory
11: Unpack the files, rename Moroning's file to exploit and copy to the Minimal ADB and Fastboot install base directory, copy jcase's code EXCEPT the exploit file there as well.
12: Run Minimal ADB and Fastboot, make sure your device is connect first
Code:
adb devices
If not listed go back to step 6
13: Copy and paste this into the cmd prompt. Ignore if it says it fails
Code:
adb push su /data/local/tmp/
adb push rootme.sh /data/local/tmp/
adb push exploit /data/local/tmp/
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/rootme.sh
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/exploit
adb shell /data/local/tmp/exploit -c "/data/local/tmp/rootme.sh"
At this point you should be rooted. You can now finish installing Busybox on your HDX. To check if you have root if your unsure type
Code:
adb shell
then type
Code:
su
If not, reply. Remember this is tested to work on my Kindle Fire HDX 7" 13.3.1.0
Notes:
If the Hdx is updated past this point Amazon may patch the exploit and so you loose root.
We need to start a thread on how to stop/block Amazon from pushing updates to the HDX.

If you don't install a superuser app, root will still work, but any app that requests it, gets it, and no notification.
Supersu works with that binary, but you can install superuser and let it update the su binary and it will work as well.

Using ES File Explorer app, navigate to the /system/etc/security folder. Rename or move the otacerts.zip file.

-UPDATE- I can't confirm if it works or not. Someone else needs to try this up to see if it stops updates.
I'm running iptables.
This worked for me once I updated to 13.3.1. Guess the bug is either not present in the older kernel or it is at a different memory address.

Yah. I think that's what lead someone to port the 8.9" 14.3.1 hdx exploit to 7" 13.3.1

[GUIDE][XT1254]Getting Xposed Working

Guide: Getting Xposed Running​This morning, I finally managed to get Xposed up and running on my Turbo. So I thought I'd write up a guide as to how!
What you'll need:
A paid copy of Mofo (obviously)
Either a modified system image containing Xposed already, or if you like, you can modify one yourself as described in this tutorial. I've already created a modified system image to include Xposed as well as Wifi Tethering and a modified hosts file for ad blocking.
The Xposed Installer apk
Xposed Installer needs to be installed on your phone
Terminal Emulator and ES File Explorer from the play store need to be installed on your phone
A rooted image flashed to your phone
Before flashing anything, this is what you need to do:
On your computer, find your de.robv.android.xposed.installer_v33_36570c.apk and rename it to be a .zip file.
Open this .zip file and extract /assets/XposedBridge.jar and, if you're modifying your own system image, extract /assets/arm/app_process_xposed_sdk16 as well.
Put XposedBridge.jar somewhere on your phone, I like to use the Downloads folder so I don't lose track of it later.
In ES File Explorer, navigate to /data (NOT SDCARD/DATA)

Make sure it doesn't say sdcard > data!
Create a folder called "xposed"
Long press the folder, select properties, and set permissions to 755
Set the owner of the folder to root and the group to shell
Move XposedBridge.jar into the xposed folder we just created.
Make the permissions of XposedBridge.jar 644
As before, make the owner root and the group shell.
Open the Xposed Installer app on your phone.
Open terminal emulator and type
Code:
ps | grep xposed
This will return a pattern like the following. Make a note of the first seven characters, as shown (the first is a lowercase u)
Return to /data/xposed
Create two new files: modules.list and modules.whitelist
Make the permissions on both files 644 as above
Set the owner to the seven characters we noted down earlier and the group to shell on both files
If you're flashing a pre-compiled image with Xposed, you're done here! Go ahead and flash, and enjoy!
If you're modifying your own system image, you've got some more work to do. Take app_process_xposed_sdk16 from the Xposed apk and rename it to app_process.
In your turbo system image, navigate to /bin/ and replace app_process with the one from Xposed Framework. Make sure its permissions are set to 755:
Code:
sudo chmod 755 /path/to/img/bin/app_process
Linux does not allow setting the group of a file to a nonexistent group, so on your pc you'll have to make a shell group:
Code:
sudo groupadd shell
Change the group of app_process to shell:
Code:
sudo chgrp shell /path/to/img/bin/app_process
You're ready to flash!
NOTE: If XposedBridge.jar reports problems, try setting installation mode in the Xposed installer app to recovery (flash manually) and hitting install, then reboot.
You're done! Xposed should show up as installed! Don't use any modules that require system write access, such as replacing system icons, but most modules (ie GravityBox) work fine without it.

Gahhh I was working all day on getting Xposed baked in
Thanks for the write up! I'm finding modifying the image file and flashing it to be just as addictive if not more than flashing someones prebuilt roms on other devices. I never got into compiling android so this feels like a way to tinker on my own without jumping into the deep end of code.

Same here! When I finally opened Xposed Installer and saw it read the framework as installed, I've almost never been so excited about something Android.
i dont need it but its a great guide, easy, short and with pictures!
Does the phone need to be flashed with a rooted image, like that in the tutorial of how to modify system images? I can't write to /data, presumably because I don't have the rooted image flashed yet. Also my /data directory is empty.
I have a copy of mofo, and copies of the rooted system image and your already compiled system image. Is there something I am missing? Thank you in advance.
Thanks so much man, about to flash. Will let you know how it goes.
Ah damn, I actually just did a bit different process of installing Xposed on a image for myself, (which involved baking it into the rom that didn't have it) totally got it working and I've rebooted 3 times so far and everything sticks. Loving having battery percentage now! I can write a quick tutorial writing xposed files into a fresh rooted image via Virtualbox and such... Took me a few hours
It did not work for xposedbridge.jar

Yes, you will need to be rooted first to perform these actions. Apologies for not originally including this. OP updated

I am having trouble with es file explr it tells me the operation failed when trying to do anything I have root and I enabled root for ES it seemed to work on root browser fine (I reset my device and just installed es so far)
edit checked and the root enhancement options are greyed out?
After following directions for all files and then subsequent flashing of your pre-built image xposed installer still reports framework problem. I've gone back and double checked the user:group and perm masks and everything looks good. Any ideas what else I should check?

You should be able to foloow the instruction you quoted from that point. You should go back and check your permissions, ownership and group for the 4 files. first
Do the change in install mode to manual. Hit install and go to recovery
recovery should give you the dead droid an then reboot
Also don't worry if the group "shell" shows up as something else in app_proces

I'm not responsible of
bootloops
dead sdcard
overheating
success
device suicide
anything else
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
everything in here became obsolete, you still can use but now there's an better way to do it
here's the link for flashfire thanks to @Chainfire
here's the link for xposed for lollipop thanks to @rovo89
download the sdk 21 arm version
just download the xposed zip and the flashfire
and use flashfire to flash the zip
it takes around 8 minutes to flash on our device but works
the old way to do it is here:
I found some files on google from a guy called "Nodis" that promised to install xposed on lollipop
yay
they worked?
No.
:crying:
but I followed the script manually and then...
yes xposed on lollipop working
Let's start
You'll need:
Code:
d690n (but mine is using d693n rom)
Root
busybox
Some app to unninstall system apps
Working adb
SeLinuxModeChanger
usb debugging enabled
the files from here
Luck
Let's begin
uninstall lg quick view app (it'll be force closing continuously)
download the CantRecoverv4 file attached in here
extract to desktop or the place you want
open cmd (or bash for linux) in the xposed folder that you extracted
a good way for do this is open the folder, hold shift, right mouse click and click open command window here

}
type the following commands and then press enter to execute
Code:
adb push system /data/local/tmp/system
Code:
adb push installer /data/local/tmp
Code:
adb shell
in the adb shell type
Code:
su
in the su shell
Code:
chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/installer
and
Code:
/data/local/tmp/installer
it's really important to follow the order.
then install XposedInstaller_3.0-alpha4.apk
just open the xposedapp.bat and it will (should) install xposed app.
I've noticed that if you install SeLinuxModeChanger from @MrBIMC some blocked mods start working
So download the app here, install and set it to permissive.
reboot your device.
now xposed is probably working (worked for me)
MAYBE it'll work for other lollipop device without recovery
thanks if i helped.
If you have any questions ask in here and if I can help I'll do.
if the real author of this isn't the guy Mentioned contact me and I'll add your credits
thanks to @MrBIMC for SeLinuxModeChanger

even if xposed is working he shows this message, just look if there are green numbers under active.
if it has, try some module because it may be working

many modules aren't working, check if you are using the new g3 tweaksbox and use the new gravitybox lp too, because they complements each other.
and the selinux mode changer can make some things work too.

Do I have to uninstall the quick view app with the new method? If so, can I install it again later? Or should I totally ignore the old method?

[Root] How to root Phoenix OS without replacing system.img

Hey guys, recently a member from Discord channel (ikkun) showed me steps on how to root Phoenix OS by just placing the su binary in the system folder. This method is so much easier and convenient than replacing the system.img, that it should be the main way to root your Phoenix OS installation.
Advantages:
No need to wait to download and extract a 500MB system.img. Instead, download a 5MB .zip file
No need to do a fresh install. You can root an existing installation without removing all your data.
Play store and Google Calendar sync work
Tested and works with:
v2.2.0 64-bit
v2.2.1 64-bit
v2.5.0 64-bit
v2.5.3.64 64-bit
v2.5.7.348 64-bit (Tested myself)
(Probably works on your system too. Why not test it and post your results below?)
Instructions:
Download and extract the .zip file. For the purposes of the tutorial, I'm going to assume that you extract it in the Download folder and rename the SuperSU folder to su. Inside su, you should see META-INF, x64, x86, etc folders.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Open the terminal by pressing Alt+F1
If you have Phoenix OS 32-bit, type in these commands:
Code:
cd /system/xbin
mv su su.orig
cp /sdcard/Download/su/x86/[B]su.pie[/B] su
chmod 4751 su
su --install
su --daemon
If you have Phoenix OS 64-bit, type in these commands:
Code:
cd /system/xbin
mv su su.orig
cp /sdcard/Download/su/x64/[B]su[/B] [B].[/B]
chmod 4751 su
su --install
su --daemon
This screenshot is for 64-bit:
Note 1:
If after typing in the mv su su.orig command, you get an error saying:
mv: rename su to su.orig: No such file or directory
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That means your Phoenix OS installation does not come with the su binary. Skip the mv command and proceed to the next step since there is nothing to make a backup of.
I usually install my Phoenix OS using the .exe installer and always see the su file in that folder during the rooting process so I never see this error. It was never clear to me why people are missing the su binary, but my observations tell me it could be because people are installing it using the ISO file or using 32-bit. I never had the opportunity to test this out, but if you have this error, please post your Phoenix OS version, architecture, and installation method.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Note 2:
Make sure you type in the commands exactly as provided. I saw other people were having trouble because they typed in the command incorrectly; they were missing a period after a space. It should be with a period and a space after the command (if you're rooting x64):
Code:
cp /sdcard/Download/su/x64/su [B].[/B]
and not:
Code:
cp /sdcard/Download/su/x64/su
The dot simply tells the cp command to place the file in the working directory (which was set earlier by the cd /system/xbin command). Alternatively, you can replace the dot with the current directory, the new command being:
Code:
cp /sdcard/Download/su/x64/su /system/xbin
It's just easier to type a dot then type out the whole directory, especially considering the fact that you can't copy-paste in the terminal (as far as I know, could be wrong)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Close the console by pressing Alt+F7. (If you have trouble exiting the console, post below with your Phoenix OS version and architecture. Then, try pressing Ctrl+Alt+F7)
Phoenix OS might crash and restart. Using the File Manager, go to the Download folder. Navigate to su>common> and install Superuser.apk
Launch SuperSU app from the app drawer. Press Continue, then select Normal to update the binary normally. Exit out of the app after the update is successful.
Launch Security app from the app drawer. Click AutoRun.
Toggle SuperSU to enable it so that it can automatically run when other apps request Superuser access. Exit out of the app.
History:
Added notes for common errors people were having
Added another keystroke to exit console (Ctrl+Alt+F7)
Added screenshots. Removed unnecessary steps. Fixed grammar mistakes.
These instructions were posted in the Phoenix OS Discord Server by ikkun. Thanks to Chainfire for SuperSU.
Instructions ported from tutorial Installing SuperSU on Remix OS 2.0
Attached zip file in case their website is down.

This method only roots the system, it's not supposed to fix the sync problems with Gmail. The problem exists even before you root, so we need to search around for a solution. I would recommend asking in the Discord channel and someone might shed you some light on this issue.
It is exactly it, forgiveness if my English is not very clear. It is a method to install a dual boot or a triple boot in this particular case on a tablet Teclast x98 or on a mini PC Pipo X7 that have the same characteristics it does not solve at all the problems of synchronization of Google moreover I have no problem of synchronization on Phoenix os 2.2

Oh okay, thank you for the guide, I hope others find it useful. The other reply was to another user, not to you. Phoenix OS has a Gmail sync issue. So if you try to install and sign into the Gmail app, you will not be able to synchronize your mail. You actually do have a synchronization issue, it's just that you haven't experienced it yet because you haven't tried using the Gmail app.

It sounds like you're not in the right folder. What Phoenix OS version do you have and what processor architecture? (32/64-bit) are you sure you're running the first command correctly (cd /system/xbin)? In the terminal, type in pwd and press enter. Post the output here. It should say /system/xbin. If not, use the command cd /system/xbin. If that doesn't work, type in ls -a and post the output here. Can you find su in that list of files? If so, all we're trying to do is make a backup of it before replacing it with the one we downloaded from Chainfire

I don't remember off the top of my head, but try Ctrl+Alt+F7. Also, try other numbers for the F (Function) keys. If superuser doesn't work for you, go into the Security app and enable SuperUser for AutoRun.

Thank youu very much, strangest thing happened, just reinstalled the whole OS and all the commands went in this time perfectly fine, the keys to get out of Terminal are indeed Ctrl+Alt+F7.
Managed to have a bit of a play and sort of get the latest version of showbox running, also installed it through Kodi where it appears to be working perfectly fine, going to stick with this OS for a while now, does everything that I need it for, without the crap sluggishness of Windows, looking out for any future updates.

I'm glad you got it to work! I will update the OP with the new information. What made it work? Was it the fact that you could now escape the terminal or letting Superuser in AutoRun?
