Hi, if you searched for it on Google and XDA (as I just did to check), it likely has not been rooted yet. Sorry! The best thing you could do is to google search and search XDA every week or so, maybe something will turn up soon!
I might get one of these, as they're $100 on Target's website for Cyber Monday.
Not enough people have them for someone to invest the time into rooting, but a common root method might work...

Got mines at walmart for $79. I have the same kernel as him except my firmware version is 4.0.3.
Still can't find anything on this damn tablet. Almost wish I didn't buy it heheh.
Supposedly root is available on M-270 but I still can't install Superuser. su is present in xbin too. I tried to use superoneclick and it said it was rooted then I tried to continue with root anyway and it froze. Has anyone had this problem and found a solution yet?

I successfully rooted my Maylong M270 by using the software in the linked thread. I was able to install Google Play, and from there I updated SuperUser and BusyBox. Titanium Backup works properly. Without a custom kernel, overclocking is impossible for the moment, and I'm not too sure on how a kernel (or custom recovery and ROM for that matter) can be ported, but the root is here and working.

I call bogus on this post. I tried both means to root the Maylong M270 using this method and it does not work. Instead of just posting "I DID IT", why not help out the users and post HOW you did it... simply following the links and downloads on the post you've referenced doesn't do it.

I know it's been way long since the OP, but a tool called "ICS root" (can be found on SourceForge) will unlock this tablet. The device is a bit temperamental so once you run the .bat in terminal, you will have to manually restart and log back into the tablet before continuing each prompt at the terminal. Eventually after 2 -3 prompts, the .bat will be finished and the tablet will "update Android", a sign that you have successfully rooted.
Good luck all.

However, I'm not allowed to post links, since I have not posted before. So I'm going to post this info in a series of posts, hoping that by the end, links will be allowed.
To find more info on your tablet there is an app in the Play store called CPU Identifier that will tell you what type of board you have in the tablet. Search for that board name on XDA to find rooting advice.

Custom ROM and ROOT for Maylong M-270
But the short story is, there is a way to root this tablet, but even better there is a custom ROM available. HardcoreHacker over at "techknow dot me" has been working hard on this. The key to figuring this out was realizing the WM8950 SOC chip set used in this tablet is the same as the WM8850. They are interchangeable. The rom is called Uberoid and is Jellybean 4.1.1, and it works great. My tablet runs very well now, and doesn't lock up all the time like it used to. I also have a link where you can download the original firmware from Maylong. So I'm trying to get some posts here so I can do a proper link, however here are some ugly links to try.
Original Firmware:
maylonggroup dot com forward slash Tablet_downloads.htm
and Uberoid Link
3w's "dot" techknow "dot" me "forward slash" forum "forward slash" index.php?topic=5356.0
Again, I apologize for the very cryptic links - I will work on getting them posted properly. I have two of these tablets and both are running Uberoid. I'm very satisfied with it. The only issue I have (on both tablets) is the battery monitoring is very poor. But this is in the kernel I think because it is the same as it was before the custom ROM.
NOTE! - as you will see on the Maylong Site, there are two different models of this tablet - You can tell which you have based on your serial number, but I think this is a pretty important distinction. If you have the same model as I do, you are going to need JingHan_MID7_V715_8228_FT5206.fwc from the Uberoid List. My model's serial number is M2701204 which is in the same group as M2701202, M2701203, and M2701205)

Wow very helpful I'm trying this now, also it should be mentioned you have to be signed into Techknow for the link to work. If you're not it just looks like a bad link.

I used SRSRoot on this device and it worked. My device is now rooted.
Hello, and thanks to all who take the time to read this and offer their support.
To everyone else... just hello.
Okay.
I have a few of those cheap Chinese 7" tablets so common on e-Bay these days. For the price, most of these are okay and seem to run fairly well "as-is" without having to spend a lot of time rooting them or installing CFW. This one however is just a little bit different.
Here's the deal... The tablet I'm going to be addressing in this thread has a ROM that was not customized for the retailer very well. The particular combination of apps and services it has causes the tablet to perform horribly. I'd really like to change this. The problem is however that because there are so many of these around these days, many of these generic units have not been "developed." Because of this, rooting these devices or replacing the ROM's is often very difficult if not downright impossible. At times, even identifying the specifics of the hardware. This tablet is one of those.
I've tried just about everything I can think of to simply modify the ROM it has in a way that would make it work better, but there are a few apps installed that are locked and impossible to modify or remove. I've come to the conclusion at this point that if possible, installing a custom ROM is going to be the only way to "fix" it. I have been able to root the device, but I have not been able to replace the recovery app , nor have I been able to identify a ROM that might be able to be installed once I do.
What I need from you folks.
If I supply every scrap of information I can come up with about this tablet, would someone please be willing to tell me which ROM just might work, and how I can use the recovery app that's installed to install it? If so, thank you.
Here's the information.
Options available in the installed recovery app.
A. Apply update from ADB
B. Apply update from external storage.
C. Apply update from cache.
Here's the tablet information.
Brand: ZTO
Model: N1 PLUS (Generic Chinese 7" tablet)
Android version: 4.1.1
Baseband version: v0.4rc3
Kernal version: 3.0.8+
Build number: N1 PLUS_wifi-7601_V4.1.1 JR003C 20131202
And again, Thank you.
Am I missing it or are there instructions to root and instructions for multi-boot but no ROM for the LG G Vista, please?
I've searched and read through a bunch of threads but nada ... so far.
Will any of the ROMs for other LG G-series phones work?
Thanks!
Wait ... I just looked in About phone and it says this is a VS880.
I just got this from Verizon.
I'm seeing the VS880 referred to as a G2 and a G3 on the Internet - what is it really, please?
It came with Android 4.4.2, kernel version 3.4.0+, and our son rooted it for me earlier today.
Just in case any of those details help ...

They are the same thing. One is the internal name while the other is normal users name of the device. As for roms make sure to do your reading up as the device is pretty locked down.
So, you are saying that there is no ROM anywhere for the LG G Vista/VS880?
Is there any reason to believe that anyone is actively developing one?
There are so many sites touting Rooting as a pathway to loading a ROM it seems odd there there is not one.

It takes more then root. You need an u locked bootloader or a way to bypass a locked bootloader like safestrap or bump. Most developers that make roms only make them for devices they own.
The bootloader bypass has been solved:
http://www.unlock-bootloader.info/mp3-0/lg-g-vista-6569.html
The LG G Vista/VX880 is "free" on Verizon with the $16/mo Edge data plan & has a nice big display.
I have my Samsung Tab4 7" tablet for sale as I don't need it now that I have the LG G Vista/VX880.
There are ROMs for the models all around the LG G Vista/VX880 - it's hard to believe that LG made that phone so radically different from the others that tweaking an existing ROM to port it would be beyond a developer.
Sure wish I had the skills ... sigh.
It's not really that. It's most developers seldom do ports. Let alone for devices that don't have. After looking at the spec is not a bad mid range device. But also remember that. Most carriers in the world are GSM carriers and very few work on cdma devices.
There are plenty of Tuts on how to port. Could be something you could look into
Back to this ...
Modified request: Is there an app/hack that strips-out all of the Google stuff, especially their backdoors & data-leeching?
If no one is going to build a custom mod - which seems apparent - it sure would be good to have a clean machine onto which to then install carefully selected apps.
Thanks!

Simple answer is no. You would have to build a rom from source and then remove alot of the Google based code. There is a project that is working on it but you lose alot of functionality.

Cannot the functionality be restored via privacy-respecting alternative apps?
What about an app that monitors the bad behavior of the Google code than cannot be removed and blocks execution of data-leeching & activity monitoring?

Not completely no. Many have been trying over the years. Your biggest issue is the device your using. Once that is taken care of you can try and build something but like I said alot of the stuff is built directly into the os.
To be honest privacy is an illusion at best now a days. Every thing monitors what you do. From credit cards to social net networking. It is all made to get as much info as it can about a person. Even carriers do it. It has even come to light that Verizon can monitor the apps installed on a device.

I can give some pointers that I had to work through if you have any questions, or have not gotten any help since last November.

Many Many hours wasted on Google,Bing,ect. I haven't found anything. I have seen where some people refer to this as the same as a G2 And others but it's clearly not. But yeah wish someone would put something out. Agreed. I have however figured out how to get Viper4Android and Dolby Atmos to work. So if anyone is interested in knowing how that's done hit me up. All you have to have is root. NO custom recovery. Haven't seen a post on how to do that either? I still have 8 more to go before I can post lol.

Where did you get the rom? Do you have a copy I can get?
First, please forgive me if this is the wrong place, but this is the General Forum, and the forum software has changed a lot since when I was really active here as an active phone modder and active poster!
So like I said I've been away from the forums for a long time... trying to rereading a lot and trying to get back into MY PHONE.
I hate my modem sometimes because T-Mobile just sucks in some areas and is great in others [Greater Houston Texas Area, but mostly south side and towards the Galveston Bay].
I would like to know if the newer modems are interchangeable with the below config on my G900T?
And if there is any advantage to upgrading my modem? Wondering what modem I might be able to upgrade to with that below config and if there would be any advancements/pluses/gotmeinabadways/or other things I should be aware of if I did?
Also I'm wanting to upgrade to Marshmellow maybe, should I or should I just forget it? I will be reading more about the ROMs available. I've read a lot of posts about how buggy 5.1.x is. So I don't want to even go there...
Basic Phone info, Stock T-Mobile ROM [Damn bloatware] rooted awhile back with I think towelroot. I would really like to change to a slicker ROM that is debloated and maybe deoxed maybe. Will have to read hella lot more about that for sure..
Model SM-G900T Rooted
edit: Nova launcher
Android 5 not 5.1.x
BaseBand G900TUVU1D0B1
Kernel 3.4.0
TWRP 2.8.6.0 recovery installed
Broken Xposed :crying::crying::crying:
Can anyone recommend an app that will give modem info without having to decipher the baseband? or is there a very good break down of what each part of baseband means? I know go search!!! and I'm trying to reacquaint myself with the forums but the newer software is far different than I remember EKK! And search always hated me!! And even the different forum headers have changed due to time marching on and me being well Techtarded the last year or more due to things better left unsaid...
Have Xposed installed as noted above, but its been f00ked for a long time due to the ARM processor if I remember correctly and the Framework installer not being compatible..... Wish I could used the Xposed but........ I originally got into Xposed due to the Hex icons I actually paid for Xposed because I liked and used some of the modules made by smart people. Again but!!!

The most recent firmware and modem for the TMo S5 is version OL1,that came out in late December.
muniz_ri has been nice enough to put together a ROM that is the Stock ROM, already rooted, and ready to go:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmo...t/how-to-update-to-g900tof6-5-1-1-pc-t3141404
There are links there to the ROM, including the modem, or just the modem files themselves.
Rob
@daspazz the following website has decent basic info that seems to address the questions you ask: http://androidmodguide.blogspot.de/p/other.html
TLDR: yes modems are interchangeable
As for Marshmallow, I'm pretty sure for now, since there has been no official 6.0 update yet, you'll have to go with Cyanogenmod 13 (or one of the variants like Bliss 6.0 or Resurrection-Remix), they're in the unified development section (our phone's development codename is KLTE).
As for deciphering the baseband, look at the last three characters, let's assign them generic letters XYZ. X is the year (M being 2013, N being 2014, O being 2015, P being 2016, etc.), Y is the month (substitute the actual letter for its position in the alphabet), and Z is the revision number. So taking the most recent firmware (G900TUVS1FOL1) as an example: OL1: O means 2015, L means December, and 1 means 1st revision. Another example, build number G900TUVU1ANE6: NE6: N means 2014, E means May, and 6 means 6th revision.
It seems to me there's been some consensus that the most recent modem (which rlichtefeld linked to in the post above mine) is the best
Much Thanks!!!!
@rlichtefeld and @thisisapoorusernamechoice
I really appreciate the information gentlemen!!!! I've been reading through the info you both provided.
I did flashed my modem (only) to the newest one, G900T_OG6_Stock_Modem.tar. Ended up having to flash back to the modem for 5.0, G900TUVU1DOB1-MODEM.tar, because I literally could not hear anyone when I made or received calls.....
Also had to used Odin v3.09, because v3.10.6 wouldn't recognize my phone. Strange that!!
This ADB installer was very helpful!! It fixed problems I was having on the PC I was using to flash my phone. Much thanks to @Snoop05 for the ADB installer for the PC. It keeps you from having to install the full SDK for Android.
Thread moved to proper forum.
Dear friends. I'm desperate to lose the crippled OS that came on my entry level phone. Blu dash m2 / MT6580
Does anyone know what I can put on this that works. I have downloaded 3-4gb of flashes and they either don't boot the phone or its from foreigners who locked with a password and want money to unlock it. Sadly its hard to find any usable flashes using google because all the spammers have the first few pages spammed out.
I'm trying to load 5.1 or even 4.2 or anything other than this 6.1 crap.
I don't care much for features. I don't use apps and only need a basic browser once in a while and maps would help but not necessary
thanks
