Merlin Smart TV ___ Rom Request and Rooting Procedures - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Gents,
First this is my first request here and i want to take this as a chance and appreciate the great efforts done by everyone in this forum, really i learn a lot from all of you.
I have the following device and looking to upgrade it to android V5 or even root it (i do not know how).
device details:
Device Name: Merlin Smart TV
Model No.: rk31sdk
Android Version: 4.4.2
Baseband (Unknown)
Kernal version: 3.0.36+, [email protected] #279
Build number: rk31sdk-eng 4.4.2 KOT49H
Vendor software version : RK3188_R-Box_Android4.4.2SDK
website is not supporting at all and i spent lont time trying to get any custom and rooted rom for it without success for this reason i asked for your help.
it is not too expansive so do not worry
Regards for all

I have the same device a month ago, me too i was search for Lollipop ROM without find anything, but with the Root i have succeeded to Root it with "kingo root" app on windows, i will guide you how :
1_ connect the pc with the same TV you plugged the Merlin device on it.
2_ connect the Merlin device with the Pc with usb cable (plugged the usb in Merlin in the other port not in the one of charger )
3_ after connect with pc go to settings>USB> enable connect to pc.
4_ go to kingo root open it and it will recognized the Merlin device.
5_ click on "ROOT" (it May recognized like if it already root but even that click on "ROOT AGAIN")
Merlin device it will be restart and that's all. (To be sure it ROOT install root checker from play store )

I can offer one more way to root the above device. I have the exact same device, but mine show S7180 on the back (Star S7180, I bought it under the name iPro S7180), but everything else is the same including the build e1901_v77_jbla668_fwvga_20130415.
To root it:
- Search google for Kingo Root or go to kingoapp. com - download Kingo Root app and install it (works under WinXP and Win7, don't know about Win8, but it should)
- Enable USB debugging in the Developer options on the device
- Plug in the Start S7180/S7188 phone with a standard micro usb cable, while the device is ON with the battery in, select nothing in the USB pop up menu, just leave it
- Run KingoRoot wait for it to recognize the device and click ROOT
- The app will install USB drivers for the device and root it - easy as this, it takes about 2 minutes
- If Kingo Root does not find USB drivers for the device, install them manually - search for "MTK6577 usb drivers" in Google, download the driver, install them on top without removing anything and repeat the procedure.
- Kingo has the option to remove the ROOT as well, which is nice if you need the warranty :angel:
This method worked for me without any issues and it took about 5 minutes. Have fun with a newly rooted NoteII clone. Now you can install custom recovery (for exmp. CWM recovery) and install custom ROMS, that is if you find a decent one - just search XDA. I still keep the rooted stock ROM, it's enough for now, until a comatible Cyanogen KitKat 4.4 comes out.
One more thing - I can offer one forum with a lot of useful stuff for our device - search google for star s7180 forum china ru
It's in russian but Google translate should be enough - there is a lot of information and fixes (remove second network icon, when there is not second sim card; get the GPS working and lock in a position in under a minute; increase the speaker volume; increase the internal space for installing apps by reformatting it, etc)
Cheers.

See the instructions (author has since updated) at
http://click.xda-developers.com/api...Touch Pop S3</b> 5050 | Every Android version
and the second page comments for recovery hints. TWRP requires some study and preparation before use so it's not good to be stuck when attempting recovery.
Note the comment on the 3rd page about the updated recovery image that lets you see what you are doing on the screen. For me I got it working, working in the dark (ie. not seeing anything on screen), so it's too early for a video tutorial.
Please Help me :/
When i use the .cmd, i put /storage/sdcard0 or /storage/sdcard1
I have a message :

Rooting using Kingo Root
Rooting nowadays is very simple.
But the easiest way to do it is the following:
1. Download Kingo Root for Windows, Mac or Linux;
2. Install Kingo Root;
3. Open the program;
4. Connect your phone to your pc through USB cable and wait for Kingo Root recognize it;
5. If your phone is rootable it will appear a button saying "ROOT", click there (If your device is not rootable then you are out of luck and you must try another method)
6. Don't remove your phone and don't click anywhere, wait until the rooting process is finished;
7. After this your phone should reboot, it means you are now rooted (If your phone did'nt rebooted, manually reboot it then);
8. Enjoy!
Note: Rooting will void the device's warranty, root at your own risk.
Download the phone's drivers if needed and disable Windows, Mac or Linux firewall if needed.
Hope it works for you!

T-Mobile Coolpad Rogue 3320A - Any one working on Recovery/Roms for this?

So I as successfully able to root the phone using the Windows version of Kingo Root and then installed Super Su and Busy Box but I can't get a recovery to work on it, yet.....would love a Recovery like TWRP or Phil's and CM13 port for this phone.
Finally got it rooted with KingRoot
Just noticed that the build.prop has the ro.build.id-LMY47V
That's the 5.1.1 for the 2013 Nexus 7

Hi I would to know how you rooted the Coolpad Rogue 3320A. I was looking at Kingo root and KingRoot and they dont give good instructions.
I tried the android versions of both KingRoot and Kingo Root without success. The Windows version of Kingo Root failed but the Windows version of KingRoot succeeded in rooting my Coolpad Rogue 3320A.
The Kingo Root Windows app gives instructions in English when you run it. Which are to connect the phone to the computer with a USB cable and enable "USB debugging" in the phone's "Settings" under "Developer options'. Then click the ROOT button when it appears. KingRoot is in Chinese, but I just followed the same procedure.
To get "Developer options" to show in the phone's settings , you need to give 7 or 8 taps to the "Build number" under "About phone" in the phone's "Settings".
Before I tried rooting I also ran COOLPAD-140926-SETUP.EXE in the CD Drive labeled "Coolpad_USB_Driver" that shows up in Windows Explorer when the phone is connected to the PC by USB cable. I also installed minimal ADB and Fastboot and Google USB drivers using 15 seconds ADB Installer v1.3 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48915118 But I think that they may not have been necessary.
The version of Windows KingRoot I had success with was KingRootSetup_v3.1.0.1125_105002.exe downloaded from kingroot.net
There's a setting in the developer options to allow the bootloader to be unlocked. I've not tried to fastboot to work yet.
"Vanilla" ROM or at least vanilla dialer/phone apps?
I'm interested in some kind of vanilla dialer/phone/telecom app set (5.1.1 based) or a full ROM that's AOSP so that I can toss out T-Mo's "Wi-Fi Calling" and use the built-in Android SIP client with its normal configuration screens.
If anyone has accomplished the same with this device or any other T-Mo 5.1 based device, please let me know. I'd really like to be able to configure the system dialer to connect to my SIP PBX directly rather than use a half dozen hacks to give me half-working VoIP calling of my own.
(Note: If there's a T-Mo 4.4 based image out there, that would suffice, as I can at least make VoIP apps intercept dial requests, which T-Mo Wi-Fi Calling prevents on 5.1. This device shipped with 5.1, but it might be possible that a similar model's ROM image might work on this as well.)
/system image
anyone with a rooted 3320a that might be able to provide me with a stock(or rooted stock) image of /system? i managed to softbrick my device after rooting and i forgot to do a dd of the system partition before mucking around in it
thanks in advance

My Arise don't have a custom recovery either. This kind of disappoints me, as this phone is a good phone for the price.
However, I thought I'd share with you guys that Root Genius may also work to root the Rogue as it does root my Arise. (I don't own a Rogue, so I can't confirm this.) It's always better to have more than one way to root your phone safely right?

You CAN root this with the Kingroot apk.
I'm new and can't post links so to make the links below work just abbrev the http and add a colon.
As soon as I can post links I will fix them.

Here's what I did:
1) download latest kingroot Hypertexttransferprotocol//androidmtk.com/download-kingroot-application
2) enable USB debugging in developer options
3) enable OEM boot loader unlock in developer options
6) enable unsigned APKs
7) install kingroot apk
8) run kingroot

Root acces to Tesla smartphone 6.2 Lite (request - 1st time posting)

Hey.
I have a question, if there is anyone who knows how to help me with getting root access for my phone (Tesla 6.2 lite).
Before I continue: this is my first post on this forum, so I don't even know if the topic is in the correct "department", so please mods feel free to move it to another section if it is not correct. Thank you.
Ok back to my problem:
I have this phone (mentioned above), which I need root access to. I have tried with one-click root programes (KingoRoot, KingRoot, OneClick, ...) and had no luck. Then I went on to try MTKdroidTools, SP_Flash_Tools, and yet no luck. All I was able to do is to unlock bootloader using Fastboot in CMD.
I have also tried booting .img files through SDcard and didn't work. I don't know all about rooting, but this is such a specific phone, that I wasn't able to find any tutorial on how to do it properly. I used to root my Huawei P7 and Samsung S5, Samsung Ace; but that was very easy via one-click root options and/or SDcard flashing (for custom ROMs).
I tried with USB debugging on, OEM on, ...
To recap, I only need an "admin" or "root" access to my phone, not necessarily a full custom ROM.
Specs:
Phone - Tesla 6.2 Lite
Model um. - SP6.2_Lite
Chip - MT6737M
MS Board. - F5C
Kernel ver. - 3.18.19+ ([email protected] #1)
Android ver. - 6.0
Appreciate the experts help!
Thanks
